Third person POVSally delivered blow after blow to Kaytlyn's face, the girl looked almost like the phrase beaten to a pulp. Kaytlyn, on the other hand, maybe a werewolf, but she's wheezing out harsh breaths.Kaytlyn lost it and she knew, somehow Kaytlyn realized that Sally was strong even though she wasn't a werewolf. And she wouldn't admit it, but Sally was Ryan's real Luna, even though, Kaytlyn gave her all to fight.Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar echoed here. Sally is being picked up and pulled away from the psychopath.“Crazy bitch, who is it now?” Kaytlyn scoffed.Sally was ready to give her another blow, and Sally didn't miss the little bit of fear dusting Kaytlyn's eyes. And she loved the feeling of seeing someone scared of her she missed that feeling."What the hell happened?" Ryan's voice rang out around them.Sally couldn't say anything because she, herself, didn't know what the hell had happened between them. So she stood silently, her eyes blazing with anger.“This bi
Sally's POVAs I was walking towards my room, my grandfather's right-hand man, Mr. Aiden told me to follow him. I was hesitant at first but eventually did it. He led me to the tea room, in which I saw my grandparents and seven familiar-looking boys.My heart dropped when I saw him, however, I tried to calm my expression. I bowed respectfully to my grandparents and nodded to the boys, a gesture that told them their presence was known."Mr. Aiden said you wanted to see me." I looked over at my grandfather, who was sitting right across from the boys.He nodded. "I did,"He checked my damp hair and newly changed clothes. "I see you playing in the rain again."I had the urge to roll my eyes but went against it and remained silent."They came and waited for you for two hours. That was a rude gesture towards our guests." His voice was stern. This man and his manners and etiquette will drive me crazy one day.I mentally groaned, I didn't tell them to come or even ask for them. "That is it?" I
Sally's POVI went to my next class immediately, took my usual seat, the professor walked in, started the class, it ended, and I rushed out like lightning. I knew Athena was hurt because of me, but not as much as I felt, like being stabbed in the chest a thousand times.When lunch came, I left campus for a while. I need to be somewhere alone, at my parents' graves.I took a taxi and gave him directions. Not long after, arriving at the entrance, I paid the driver and got off the bus. My parents' burial site is breathtaking. I envy them and their resting place because not far from where they are buried, there is a sea ahead.The cold breeze blowing from the sea in front of me embraced me like a hug, it didn't feel strange but rather found the whole situation relaxing.I cleaned their graves of the overhanging grass growing on their headstones. Wipe dirt off the inscription. "Hello mom, dad". I smiled with a heavy heart before letting out a shaky breath.Staring at the ground for a while
Sally's POVThe second time, I affirmed this with strong and clear determination in my voice, confidence radiated from me, I had never felt more certain than in doing this and just like that, I felt something completely caught up with me. And what happens next no longer concerns me.I watched Ryan kneel, fists clenched against his chest, veins standing out on each side of his neck. But no matter how much pain he was in, I still didn't mind."Oh no, wait..." My bored eyes landed on his distraught brown orbs. "I'm not your mate anymore when you decide to scare me."His eyes opened wide. "How...""Here's another thing you don't know about me, Ryan, is that I dig for more information if I'm not happy with it."I pursed my lips tightly. "You shouldn't lie to me.""The blood I drew from you when we fought sealed the deal."I gave a weak smile. "I'm no longer your burden to worry about, whatever I do won't affect you anymore."I glanced at Kaytlyn again: "May you both live happily ever after
Sally's POVOne thing love has taught me during these 48 hours is that it can completely change someone.------------------I didn't bother packing any of my belongings, except for a few clothes. I said that I wanted to leave behind everything I had in this place and this country so that I could move forward without hesitation.Before leaving for the airport at noon, I stopped by the university to fill out a release form at the administrative office. They were shocked to see me leave suddenly without notice, especially since graduation was less than a week away, but then again they didn't need to know why or what made me leave. learn.I was feeling a little bad for letting go of all of this because I worked so hard for it. When the process was complete and I was officially no longer a student at this university, I left feeling clearer-minded.As I exited the building, halfway up the stairs, my steps stopped when I met Ryan and Kaytlyn walking side by side. I glanced at them with a dis
Sally's POVJust because my parents are dead, that doesn't give them the right to use me or walk all over me. So my goal today is to humiliate their precious children and hit them with the feeling of not messing with me anymore."Just go easy on me, okay, kid," Jolie said. They all laughed.Who is the child here? Go easy? I never remember that old man going easy on me and I never had the pleasure of begging him to go easy. And that annoys me to no end.I just smiled indifferently. Jolie attacked me first, causing her mother to grin and clap happily at her side. She started first, but nothing reached me.Go easy? I repeat this concept.Jolie kept trying to stab me with Sais, and I kept avoiding them. All she did was swing her weapon aimlessly. I got tired of that, so I just kicked Sais out of her grip and placed my sword on her neck.Game over.Her mother looked relatively upset, and once again, another dirty look was thrown my way. Jolie just giggled. "You helped both of us. I don't w
Sally's POV"Drop it or die," I warned, silently panting. He heeded the warning and let his twin blades clang against the floor, his hands raised to either side of his head, admitting he had lost.The place seemed tense and quiet until I heard Jolie's voice coming from my left. "Sally. That was intense."The woman stood up, raising her arms before folding them back down. "You are my Queen." She teased.When I took the sword away from him, I immediately noticed a look of fear mixed with respect in the eyes of each of my relatives. It's nice to prove to them that I'm not so different from people like them."This ends our match for today." My grandfather said, dismissing everyone. Arnav is no longer seen anywhere. I must have bruised his ego too much for my liking. Well, suck it up or go cry to mom.----------------------A few months later, my grandfather arranged a large family meeting where everyone belonging to or working under the Donne family should be present and gathered around.
Sally's POVLisa stopped walking before turning around and staring at me as if I had another head growing. "About a week, Sally."A week? What the hell was that? "What's wrong?" I ask."I don't know, my lady. But my grandmother told me that sometimes it takes about a month or more for the change to complete its transformation." Lisa explained. "Yours is probably the fastest in your family's history."My eyebrows furrowed. "Your grandmother used to work here?"The girl nodded. "She loved the Donne family until her last days, and I continued to do what she loved, which was serving your family. Now I know why she liked this family so much, Mr. Your grandmothers are good people, and so are you, and your parents.""Have you met my parents?" I say.She nodded. "One time, I was visiting my grandmother and accidentally bumped into them. They gave me some money to buy the best snacks I wanted and some candy." Her voice was gentle as she recalled her memories."My grandmother once told me that
Sally's POVThree months after the devastation, to say things are back to normal is an understatement. Everyone is still saddened by the loss of half of the pack, but they are our heroes, in our hearts and our memories.I returned the next day, with my enemy's head in a sack. I asked everyone in my family if they knew what he had done and was about to do. When I asked about his parents, everyone bowed their heads in respect.Arnav informed me that both of them committed suicide because of the old Donne's rule.I need to abolish that regulation and replace it with a more reasonable penalty. They were both innocent, they were just pawns in the game and they had to pay for his actions, may their souls rest in peace.That night we held a proper funeral for them. We all paid our respects. Our allies also came to pay their respects.The ceremony was over, everyone had gone home and I stayed at the burial site and stared at Oliver's portrait, thinking that maybe I hated him just because he w
Third person POVLook at Ryan carefully, his chest is moving slowly. Running to his side, Sally immediately cupped his face and called his name.“Ryan,” She started softly, and then gradually she lost patience. “Ryan.”The groan, surprised her, but sure enough, his eyes widened next. "I like hearing you say my name." His voice was hoarse.Unintentionally, she hit his chest before apologizing. "I'm sorry. Oh my God!"“Is that any way to welcome a mate who has just returned from the dead?” He was joking.Sally stared at him and said. "That's not funny at all."Sally didn't waste a second as she threw herself into his arms, crying into the crook of his neck, all the while inhaling his sweet musk. “Please don't do that again.”Ryan wrapped his arms around her waist, holding her tighter, never wanting to let her go again. “I love you too,” Her breath hitched and she buried her face deeper into his neck.After a moment, they let go and looked at each other, looking for more casualties to fi
Third person POVReaching his lifeless side, she stepped back and knelt on both knees. Unaware, tears rolled down her ash-stained face.“Ryan,” She began softly, her eyes roaming around his body and finding the wound, blood pouring out endlessly. This cannot happen. He is a werewolf. An Alpha. He should have been cured by now. Unless the wound is caused by silver, pure silver.Sally sobbed endlessly. She felt everyone's eyes on her, rage filling her entire being. “Let's capture the rogues and find Oliver Donne. Now."Sally's orderly roar echoed throughout the area. Picturing a mental image of what the despicable man looked like only made me angrier. And as if they saw what was going on in my head, they barked orders at each other and ran away in different directions.“Please wake up. Ryan!" She shook her head. "I need you, so do everything you can and wake up."His body slowly went limp in her arms, making it a little difficult for her to bear him. “Ryan, no, wake up. Please."Sally s
Third person POV"Let's go." She spoke with finality and switched to the second skin.Arriving there, they found Albert and the rest. And the first thing Sally said was. “Where is Ryan?”Everyone was dumbfounded.Her face stiffened at their sudden silence. “You're all here, but none of you know where he is.”Her voice lowered. “What happened to be able to link minds?”“We tried to contact him but he did not respond.”Sally frowned, suspicious. She looked around. “Can you guys link up?”It looked as if they were trying to communicate with each other through their minds, and they looked frustrated by it.“No,” Linus said.She is upset.“There is magic here, blocking all of the swarm's mental links to each other.”Sally looked at something behind Allen. “Is that my sword?”The boy nodded with a slight smile. “My mom said you'd be here, so…” He handed the weapon to Sally.“Thank you, Allen. Remind me to thank your mother too.” She slings the sword behind her back before telling the boys t
Sally's POVMy whole life has been a lie. I can't even handle this right now. Slowly, lowering myself to the mat, I sat and stared at the flashbacks of my life before and after everything that had happened.I remember my grandmother always saying that I was royalty in their eyes, supposed to rule the world with Ryan's pack. And she continued to emphasize the two nouns, King and queen.Also, every summer vacation when I was young, my grandfather would show me off to his guests, which made me feel very uncomfortable. And it got to the point where I remember my mother having to take me for a walk every time someone passed by."And I know you saw something in your dream, Sally. You looked pale when you walked in here." She was silent for a while. "Is that your mate? Did he call you?"My silence is the answer. Even though I tried to deny the fear that the dream brought me, I couldn't, it still lingered in my mind. The image of Ryan covered in blood and pain, stuck.At least I have to know
Sally's POVThought going to bed would be the best idea for me, but turns out, it was the worst idea. Because not long after I closed my eyes, my mind took me to a strangely familiar place."Sally, help." A whisper rang out around me.Standing in the middle of a barren field, 50 yards away from me, Ryan stood sullenly, his face pale, his right fist clutched tightly to his hip.I shivered as the cold wind whipped my skin but my eyes never left him. Is he okay? Why does he look so sick?When I looked closely at his deathly curled fists, they were covered in blood. Why? Whose blood is that? It can't be his, right? What happened?“Ryan,” I called, but no sound came out. I called again and again until I was tired and my throat became hoarse.He just stared at me with pain in his eyes.He may be standing but his eyes say otherwise. The light in his eyes was gone and I wondered if it was my fault.Looking closely at him, I felt like he was gone a long time ago and this was just an illusion.
Sally's POVWhen the room became silent, the shadow moved quite quickly, as if trying not to be caught.“Do you want something to drink or something to eat?” I said, pretending to chat while Jill wrote something on paper.It writes. “There is a spy. You should be careful."I nodded in response. Then he replied through my makeup chat. “I'd love to, but I'm going to apologize and spend the week preparing for what's to come. You are invited to my coronation.”“You should be careful too.” I wrote again. He gave me a quick nod with a forced smile and left the room with his men.Kingsley turned around just as the young leader went out, quickly rushing to my left and whispering. “Something has changed here, Luna Sally.”“I know, I can feel it too.” I looked at him from a very close distance. “I need you to find someone, if he's not here that means he knows I came looking for him.”He left me in the office to plan while he went looking for the given name. Arnav walked in on me and stared at t
Sally's POVWe arrived at headquarters three hours later, I had to match Kingsley's pace because he was such a weak bird. So as soon as my feet touched the ground, I rushed to find Arnav. "What's going on?"“The Alexander clan attacked us.”“Ub, I understand that part, but what exactly happened?”Arnav sighed first. “Goray Alexander was murdered, and the Alexander family suspects us of being the culprit.”I frowned at the news. “Why am I just hearing this now? Why did the Alexander clan suspect it was us? Do you have any other sources to find out who killed Mr. Goray?"From a maid in the house, I slipped off my coat. “Find me something, Arnav. We need to clear our names as soon as possible before something unspeakable happens.” I gave the order and went straight to my office.I was startled to see Kingsley behind me, I forgot that he was also with me. “Let's make you feel at home while I deal with all this.”He remained silent while panting from the flight and the energy he had to put
Sally's POVOne time I left the room. I followed a beautiful floating white orb that led me to what felt like a 5-minute walk to an abandoned warehouse.I hesitated to enter the building, but the ball went straight through the wall. Sighing, I followed it through a small entrance.As soon as I stepped inside, a shrill scream echoed throughout the space of the warehouse. The screams of a man and a woman rang out again, sending chills down my spine.Approaching the noise, I hid behind pieces of plywood. My heart stopped beating for a split second when I saw my parents in the middle of the room.My mother was stripped of her clothes and every ounce of dignity, tears streaming down her pale and bloody face.I wanted to scream and help her, but I couldn't move and not even a whisper came out. I could only cry and suppress the anger welling up inside me.My dad, on the other hand, looked completely devastated. I held my breath as I watched him cry, pleading with the men around them who look
