He started leading her towards the requites who were standing at the spot beside the door, she looked at him in confusion but said nothing.He stopped when they were standing in front of them and as soon as he did that, those people straightened their shoulders.“Boss,” One of the men said, Maverick only nodded. He passed their side, motioning to Aurora to follow him. He took the tray that was in the corner, there were glasses and a bottle of wine on each of the trays.He took one and passed it over to Aurora who stared at him for a brief moment before passing it to the others who all collected it with a nod of head.They took it and entered the room, without glancing back.“It is not going to be discovered right?” Maverick asked and Aurora nodded.“I used a material I got from the Manor, it can bypass whatever they set in there without being detected.”“How did you think of doing that? What if we were discovered?”“If they didn't salute, then we would join them as one of the staff. Y
They both appeared in the living room at Left Green Woods Manor, he made her sit on the chair before he squatted down in front of her and checked the wound“I know that there's no way those knives are normal ones, look at your hands, you are poisoned!”She only continued to stare at him as he examined the deeply cut hand, she didn't bother to say anything.“Let go!” She tried to snatch her hand from him but he wasn't having any of that and tightened his hold on her hand which made her grunt.“No, you sit down,” he refused. “Now tell me where the hell the antidote is, I am sure that you have it lying around somewhere.”“Since you are so concerned about it, why don't you go and find it by yourself?” She asked and he stared at her like she was crazy.“How am I supposed to find the antidote when I don't even recognize the poison that it is. Are you going to keep being stubborn there till the poison reaches your heart or render you useless?”She only looked away without saying anything, th
“Where did you hear about her?” The first woman asked The Mistress who looked at everyone in confusion.Even members of the council that usually zone out during meetings were fully paying great attention to her, this made her feel like she asked a very wrong question.“I know that Crystal is a great and a bit eccentric woman but what is with those weird reactions?” Aurora asked and Maverick sighed.“Crystabelle isn't just great and eccentric, what goes beyond her is greater than what anyone could comprehend, she's a mystery.”“Mystery?” Aurora echoed.“Uh?” The Mistress asked.“Where did you hear about her?” The woman asked again.“Uh… she came to the castle the day when Aurora left with Maverick.” She replied.“What?!” More than three people yelled as they stood up. “She came into the coven and stood at the entrance with the castle?!”“Yes?”“And you didn't think to call us?” The teenager snapped at her in an annoyed tone.“Of course, I wouldn't call you because I didn't think of it
“What are you talking about? I am not her!” She yelled at him firmly.He moved closer to her and placed both hands on her shoulders before he pulled her closer to himself for a hug. She struggled for a while but he didn't let her go.“Witches have their explanations and theories for things that happened around them because to other species, their abilities were already something unnatural. They didn't want to add more things that would lead to greater questioning.Your condition happened to others before and after a lot of research, they came up with a theory and an explanation, but the thing is, this situation is familiar to me too.When a werewolf goes rogue or can't handle pain and pushes their wolves forward to handle things in their stead, you don't say that they have been possessed even when the behavior of the human and wolf is different. We say that they were somewhere safe inside themselves and needed a break, they would come back later when things are clear in their head.Bu
“I…I…” Phoebe stuttered, but panic blocked the words from tumbling out. She clenched her hands tightly as she heaved quietly.“It is as irritating as it can get with Aurora running around, but you also had to start your fiasco?” He moved closer and she remained frozen in the same spot.“I-I am sorry!” She fell on her knees in front of him, sweat coating her forehead.He squatted in front of her and raised her head to stare straight into her eyes, his hood obstructing her from seeing him but she didn’t miss the smirk that pulled his lips.“Do you know what you did wrong?” He asked, and she nodded repetitively, anything to make her escape his grasp. He was excited and it would be a bad idea to remain in his presence.“I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry,” she resumed her mantra and he scoffed.“Don’t be like this, mate.” He chuckled. “If someone saw you right now, they would think I am doing something bad to you. I heard your conversation with your mother.”Her eyes flew up to stare stra
The door opened and Mani stepped into the dark study that had only dim light at the moment, The Mistress was sitting behind her desk, she was flipping through a book that she got from the archived documents. She was trying to find out all she could about Crystabelle but she wasn’t getting anything through.Witches, no matter how powerful they might be, would have their records in the archives. It was a magic that no one has been able to find out its root, it would automatically record it, even the ones thousands of miles away or were just born or died. As long as you have some witch blood running through your veins you are down, but there was nothing showing up about Crystabelle, it was as if she didn’t exist at all.“What did you find out?” The Mistress finally asked her when she dropped the book down after a futile search.“There’s no way to be exact but she is at Moonlight Pack at the moment.”“Damn.” The Mistress sighed. “So there’s no way to track her movement.”“No.”“How is the
“I hope you aren’t feeling any pain again,” Sadie asked and Phoebe nodded with a blank expression on her face, she had collapsed as soon as she reached her room the day she met her mate and had extreme fever immediately, she was hallucinating the past events as if it was present and was breathing was erratic.Her parents had no choice but to bring her to the hospital and let Sadie attend to her personally. She was glad that it stopped their rants for a short time.Sadie furrowed his brows at her and stared at her in concern. Even though she didn’t get along with Phoebe, she couldn’t ignore a woman who seemed to be spinning down the depression path with a spiral, she bites her lips in contemplation.“Is everything alright?” She finally asked.“Does it look like it isn’t?” Phoebe replied, and Sadie just nodded in understanding, there was no way to force an answer out of someone who is not willing. She dusted her coat and dipped her hands in the pockets before she started making her way
“Listen,” Mr. Brian’s voice started as soon as Phoebe descended the last step on the staircase, he was sitting in the living room and from the look of things, it was very obvious that he was waiting for her. Phoebe paused and regarded him with a blank gaze. “I don’t care whatever excuse you have, I have had it with you. You are going back to Blood Moon Pack today.”Phoebe remained silent, they would have this conversation the day before but when she came back from the hospital, his mother was nowhere to be found and Alec had assigned an important duty to her father.“I have arranged someone who would take you through the way to the pack, once you are out of the border of Moonlight Pack, the only thing you have to worry about are the puppets that would be lurking around,” her father continued regardless of her silence. “I have sought information from some members of the coven that I have good relationship with, they confirmed that the puppets have been reigned but regardless of it all
The hall was filled to the brim with grinning pack members who awaited the day’s event. It seemed to them that the satisfaction they have always wanted was making their ways to them.It was the Luna Coronation Ceremony.Aurora was finally going to be officially recognized as the Luna of the Moonlight Pack, while this made a lot of pack members happy, it also made them very busy, it wasn't like they could have their Luna-to-be preparing everything or anything.Sadie was the one that took charge of the event with Sally, both of them ordering workers around, trying to get things rounded up.Out of everyone who was going about, Sally could be said to be the happiest. After resigning to date about the death of their son, both the former Alpha and Sally had alienated themselves from the pack when they heard the demise of Maverick.According to them, seeing the pack reminded them of the wound that would never scar. It was right there and then that Aurora earned the respect of the former Alpha
“I am so sorry that she escaped, Aurora.” Mani apologized and Aurora just waved her off.“I told you that it is alright.” Aurora replied. “Besides, you were doing something else when she escaped, we would have been able to find her later but delay might have been very bad in the spell breaking. I really appreciate your help, Mani. Thank you so much.”Mani smiled back at Aurora and nodded. It was nice to see Aurora’s face having another emotion other than the blankness that she had mastered over the years, it was amazing yet shocking how a person could have an effect over another person.Aurora’s eyes have become brighter and she seemed to have found more meaning to life, she clung to Maverick who was sitting beside him and the smile had never left her eyes, it was truly a gratifying thing to watch.“We helped in that matter together,” Daphne said from where she stood. She had spent the night at their house while insisting that the rest of the witch council would be after her head afte
“Were you able to find Maverick?” Easton asked as soon as she was in front of the house, he was talking with Alec about Pack matters and since Ferix was helping him too, it seemed to be urgent.“HI Aurora,” Ferix greeted and she nodded.“We were able to find him and he knows who Phoebe is but he also didn’t want to have anything to do with me.”“Talk about some big misfortune, it is making me want to wring Phoebe’s head.” Ferix snorted.“Me too.” Easton added.“That makes three of us, but I have something to do now,” Aurora said and entered the house.“Isn’t Daphne here?” Aurora stared around the whole place and turned to Regina when she found no sight of the woman she was looking for.“I thought she followed you? Didn’t you go to look for Phoebe and Alpha together?” Regina asked and Aurora sighed. “She told me that you already picked the location or something around that line.”“I had no idea that she followed me but I doubt that she hadn’t run away,” Aurora murmured to herself befor
Maverick stared at Phoebe who had shifted back to human form in devastation and betrayal, he couldn’t even manage anger with the reeling that was going on in his head, though, there was no way to prove it everything that Aurora was saying was true about him was something that clashed and overturned everything that he had always believed in.He was supposed to be an hunter but here he discovered that he belonged to the species that he had been ordering and the woman who he had always thought was his best friend lied about everything to him and was his enemy, a woman who was very desperate and would do anything and everything to keep him by her side.“It is a lie Maverick! You are not a werewolf! Aren’t you supposed to feel your wolf if you were one since all these days? She is your ex, she betrayed you before and would do anything to separate us again,” Phoebe insisted.“Why should I lie about something like that if I have gone to someone that I liked? I wouldn’t be back here looking f
Phoebe stared at Maverick who was walking with slumped shoulder while also carrying Robb on his shoulder, she had suggested that they leave the place as soon as possible but he had refused and told her that Robb had always told him that if he ever died one day, he wanted to be buried at the back of his little place.Damn man was jeopardizing her plan even when he was dead after pushing Maverick to pursue Aurora when he was alive.“Maverick.” She called but he only continued walking ahead.“I don’t want to talk to anyone right now,” Maverick replied and she frowned in anger.It was bad enough that they had to make a stop at their place but now he was even ignoring her, it was draining the energy that would have made her excited that she drove a wedge between him and Aurora. The bitch didn’t even show up and she was sure that Mani would have told him about everything that happened.She stared ahead and a smirk appeared on her lips. Sure, the plan wasn’t working the way she was working b
Maverick searched around the forest with a bit of panic striking his nerve, there was something bad about the nerves that kept crawling up his nerve, it was like danger was just lurking around the corner. It didn’t help matters that neither Cara nor Robb were around, he hadn’t seen Robb since he said that he had to get something from the woods and he had absolutely no idea what was going on.“Maverick!” He heard Cara’s voice in the distance and immediately turned to the direction. “Maverick!”He could see her running towards him and he hurried over to her and that was when he noticed the panic that was on her face.“Cara, what is wrong?” He asked and she tried to regulate her breathing.She huffed for a bit before she started talking breathlessly. “Maverick! Robb is dead!”“What?!” He asked with widened eyes. He moved closer to her and smelled her body before his eyes almost narrowed into slits.“Fucking werewolves!” He growled. “Lead the way!”Cara nodded and the two of them broke in
Daphne hastened her step as soon as she was in a darker part of the alley, she had been having the feeling that someone had been following her as soon as she left the pub and her instinct continued to tell her not to stay and find out who the person was because it was dangerous.She ran and took another corner but she was stopped by something and before she could react, she was punched in the stomach and sent sprawling on the floor.She hated combat the most, she preferred when she wielded her magic so she tried to gather some energy from around her but she found out that she couldn’t do anything of the sort.“Escaping now, aren’t you?” She heard in front of her and saw Mani standing there with her hands folded across her chest.“What the hell do you think that you are doing?” Daphne scoffed. “Do you think that you are something simply because you crossed over to that bitch’s side? I could end her if I wanted.”“Well, you can tell her better than when we meet her,” Mani said plainly a
“What could have made you come to see me tonight?” Daphne asked with a smirk as soon as Phoebe sat down in front of her, they were at the town pub where they usually meet up, it was late at night and both of them were wearing something that covered their face in order not to be recognized.“What else other than the fact that Maverick is almost driving me crazy?” She groaned in annoyance and Daphne raised a brow at her.“Oh? He can make you angry? I thought that you were having the best time of your life?” Daphne asked and Phoebe glared at her but it couldn't be said for a fact whether she saw it because both of them were deep at the darkest corner, the flicker of dim red light reaching them once in a while.“I was, until Aurora appeared out of the blue and now they met and he wouldn’t keep his mouth shut about her for the briefest minute.”“I told you that separating two mated people isn’t going to be easy,” Daphne shrugged and Phoebe glared at her once again.“She was supposed to be
“You would believe who we saw today,” Ferix said and Aurora raised a brow at her.“Who?”“It was Phoebe and Daphne, caught red-handed with her memory because she was talking about you,” Regina replied.“She saw both of you?” Aurora asked Easton and Ferix who nodded.“Yeah. I took Regina along because why not? She wasn’t able to keep her cool when she saw all of us and it was visible in her face that she recognized all of us, she even said my name,” Easton replied. “We were just going to scout out the place of the council but we couldn’t find and decided to come home but we met yours truly on the way and she kept ranting about you being back to take her man.”“Is that bitch high on a big dose of delusions?” Sadie asked with disgust. She remembered the time she had treated and had mistakenly thought she was normal like everyone else, who knew that she was just bat shit crazy. “How is he her man when he is clearly Aurora’s mate?”“Then the big picture is getting clearer. Daphne is one of
