“We have been able to track down Crystalbell, she is at Dove City,” Maverick says and Aurora raises her head to glance at him with tired eyes, it is obvious that her actions of the previous drained the energy from her body.“What are we waiting for? Let's just nab her down and make her vomit the answer to our questions, it won't be hard since we have you right?” Jared asks, turning to look at Aurora.“I know some really nice ways of torturing people,” Owen says with a small smirk.“That's disturbing, don't make it sound like it is some kind of good hobby,” Floyd says tiredly, yawning as he relaxes into his mesh chair with his eyes closed. “And stop drumming your hand in the damn table Sadie, you are making me unfocused.”“Shut the hell up or get the fuck out,” Sadie says in reply.“She should be really affected after that shit she pulled on our pack,” Kael says with a frown. “Aurora suffered a lot because of her stunts.”“At least to get hold of her, I get anxious anytime I think of th

“Goodness, that man made her snap, she has been on shell for the past days,” Easton says nonchalantly and Layla exhales heavily.“Can't you guys do something about this? Like telling her to stop?” Sadie asks with wide eyes, her gaze flicking between Aurora and the rest of her pack, she has never seen Aurora so angry, most of the time, she just snaps at the person and leaves their jaws hanging open with a very rude insult.“Unfortunately no. When she gets mad, she gets mad all through and when she gets crazy, it goes out of the fucking handle. It is only up to the goddess of the witches that Jerry lived today, and from what I have heard, that woman isn't nice at all,” Layla says with a mocking expression, it is obvious that she is enjoying this.“To be honest, that man gets on everyone's nerves, I hope that someone puts him in his freaking place, it is only befitting that it is Aurora that does it,” Floyd says with a small smirk.“But he still might end up dead,” Jared says calmly but d

“I do too,” Layla says with a sad tone, Zach also has a thoughtful expression on his face and Kael nods in agreement"At home, Aurora isn’t stuck with Maverick most of the time and has more time to talk to me,” Kael thinks.“Me too,” Kael adds and Aurora smiles sadly.“I talked to the treasurer at the Hilt edge coven and he says that we have enough to start the pack from scratch again and it will be enough for the meantime till we are able to do everything other things gradually,” Aurora says and Kael’s eyes brighten.“But we aren’t going back till we get hold of those people that set the pack on fire, I am not going to spare them,” Easton says with anger, Layla and Zach pats his back, while Aurora ruffles his hair.“We aren’t sparing them too Easton, we will all nail them down,” Kael says and every one of them nods.They heard noise from ahead and it seems like the person is walking towards them so they wait in alert for the person to show.It is Maverick.They visibly relax when they

They both continue to stare at each other without moving but a squawk from the bird behind them and they find themselves jumping back the opposite way but they bounce against the barrier she created and find themselves in each other’s arms again, trying to use the other to support themselves.They stand straight, none of them looking at the other and Aurora shakily removes the barrier and they both move back from the bird, the bird continues to stare at them before it tries to fly closer which makes them move back.The bird stares at them unmoving for a bit, as if it is in disbelief, before it lets out a sound that sounds awfully a lot like a scoff.It drops something on the floor and it turns out to be a piece of paper, its eyes shift from Aurora to Maverick before it lets out that scoff-like sound and flies away, not turning back to glance at them or check if they pick up the paper.Aurora and Maverick stare at it as it leaves before they move closer and Aurora takes the paper from t

“You aren’t going to see her right?” Maverick asks again and Aurora raises a brow at him in question. “I am just worried.”They got to the front of Night Pack’s place after walking away for a while.“No, I am not going to see her. It might be a trap,” Aurora says and Maverick opens his mouth to say something but keep shut anyway.There is a limit to the type of words he can say to her, there is a nagging feeling at the back of his mind and if it was some years ago, he would have continued to question her till it is gone. But time has changed and so have they.“Can you please keep this between us? Easton will definitely go and meet her if he hears that he will be there. I don’t want him to go there with his bad temper and all, he won’t be able to resist the trap,” Aurora says and Maverick thought about it before he finally nods.“Alright, I won’t tell anyone,” he replies.“They never learn their lessons, do they?” Aurora mutters and Maverick looks at her in confusion but her attention i

“There wasn’t any sight of her in the morning, the guards are on alert ever since they sighted Crystalbell at the edge of the territory,” Owen reports as soon as he is inside the meeting room.“Is it true that Aurora is out of the territory?” Easton asks as soon as he enters the room, he didn’t even bother to close the door behind him.“Yes,” Zach says, his eyes on Easton as he went to sit on the chair.“What makes you so sure?”“Crystalbell sent a letter to her yesterday when we were in the woods, she wants her to meet outside the territory, apparently, she has information about why she set the pack on fire,” Maverick informs, it is obvious that he is worried but he manages to keep his calm, the same can’t be said about Easton who has stand up from his seat and is pacing around.“Of course, she will. She is the one that set it on fire,” Jared says.“Why didn’t you say anything? You were both there and you know the content of the letter, yet you decide to keep it to yourself?!” Easton

“You seem surprised,” Layla says with a smirk.“I never knew about it, none of the pack members said it and you never said it yourself,” Maverick replies.“Hi, I am Layla, the assistant witch of the Night pack, I am a human and witch hybrid,” Layla says and Maverick nods.“Should I just enter?” He asks, glancing at the portal and Layla shakes her head.“I am trying to let it appear to the closest place to Aurora so that you don’t have to waste a lot of time looking for her,” she answers and he pauses in his actions. “Don’t worry about anything. I can feel Aurora and I know that she is not in any sort of danger.”“Then what was all the fuse about? You could have told Easton that when he was blowing up in the room,” Maverick replies emotionlessly, but the relief in his eyes is obvious. Layla feels that the man is just a huge muscular stone with no feelings whenever Aurora is nowhere in sight.“You know…” Layla trails off and Maverick raises his head to look at her. “When Zach and I firs

Maverick walks around, holding the tiny crystals that Layla gave to him in his left hand. She told him to use it to fight against witches in case they are the one that held Aurora captive.It is for his own protection before he gets one from Aurora, apparently, it is over Layla’s dead body that she will let him go fight a bunch of witches without something to protect him.He stops when he is right in front of the pole that she is tied to, there is noise outside and when he turns he is able to make out the presence of some men on the other side of the shed.He listens attentively and is able to make out the presence of four men with his heightened sense of hearing, they are walking close or around the shed but there must be others around too, given that there is some talking the far distance, probably towards the main entrance to wherever this place that they are is.He turns to face Aurora and flinches when she suddenly peels her eyes open, she stares at him creepily, blinking slowly b

Aurora knows that she is losing, and fast but she is putting up a good fight too, she will be damned before she let these people take her away to do god knows what.“Bitch, you are up to it again,” One of the vampires says and Aurora raises her brow with a cocky smirk but there's a lot of wounds at places she can point to and others that she knows that she will only discover at a later date.This fight will have been fairer if she has a normal wolf healing ability but since she is an omega and her wolf is absent, her healing rate is a just a lot lesser than a regular wolf’s.“Of course, what else did you expect when you brought five of you even though you expect me to be very out of it?” She says and the werewolf scoffs.“You are really made for that damn man,you are both ridiculously cocky,” he says, gesturing to Maverick who is still leaning on the car and Aurora shrugs.“Well, you guys don't make it hard to be cocky,” Aurora says, using a speed spell and before any of the witches c

“And I am pleased to inform you that the elders approved her,”Ferix says to the council members and all of them get out of the room.“No qualms Alpha, but I hate you park council,” Ferix says to Vincent who is walking by her side while Maverick and Aurora walk side by side in front of them.“You won't love Maverick's pack councill too, it is like those people are made purposefully for the purpose of being douchebags,” Vincent replies as the elevator closes.Maverick and Aurora are silent, none of them talk as Vincent and Ferix go back and forth about matters of pack and the building they wanted to build.“Me and Ferix have some other things to discuss, we will see you both at a later date, I think that the contract signing process is already over now, we just wait a bit and everything will be finalized, my beta will contact you, Maverick,” Vincent says and Maverick nods. “It is really nice meeting you, I mean it sincerely this time, not in the business way, it is really nice to put th

“Since we are done here,allow us to take our leave, it was nice meeting you, Lycan King, I am Kate,” The woman who is dressed fashionably says and Maverick nods at her, standing up to shake her hand.Aurora nods her head, the woman really does seem like a Kate.“I never expected to meet you right here,” Ferix says to Aurora as Maverick continues to greet the elders who seem like they are enjoying having the man's attention on them even though the latter's face is blank, no warmth towards them at all.“I could say the sake about you, how on earth do you end up being the architect?”“I have been for a very long time, I was part of the people that drew the building that was built in Moonlight Pack two year ago,”“It was built two years ago?” Aurora asks furrowing her brows and Ferix nods his head, she thought that it has always been there for the past five years but the fact that it was just built recently makes her get some prodding feelings.“So you are the Rogue Witch Leader? Uh?” He

The car pulled to a halt in the parking lot of a very sparkly and shimmering building, there’s lightning all over the place.Aurora comes down from the car, and she raises her head to stare at the name of the bar.“Devil’s Light,” she reads out and smacks her lips. “Very fitting, there’s no way these lights aren’t devilish.”Maverick comes down from the other side of the car and walks to her side, they both stare at it for a bit before they nod and start to walk to the guards at the door.Maverick shows them their card and they allow them entrance, their eyes looking at the numerous humans having the fun of their life, dancing to the loud beats of the D.J, having no idea of the supernatural club that is on the floor right above theirs.“Ignorance is really bliss,” Maverick mutters and Vincent arrives at their side in time, Aurora doesn’t miss the glare that Maverick sends his way, but she ignores it, the man did say that he offended him.“This way,” he says and they nod, following him

“You seriously can’t continue to make me sleep on the couch. That’s not done, how about we do it like this? We take turns, you sleep in bed today, I will tomorrow.” Aurora says as they enter the elevator and press the ground floor button, she is already sick of staying in the living room till morning.“You are just complaining, I am sure that you aren’t feeling any sort of pain.” Maverick replies, hands buried in his pocket as he stares ahead.Of course there is no way she will feel sore since most of the nights, she sleeps on the bed anyway, and not once has she ever woke up while being carried to and away from the bed.Whether it is because she feels safe in the environment or she just always has to involuntarily let her guard down at night, he will never know.“Yes, I don’t feel pain but that doesn’t make it any less uncomfortable, let’s just take turns and be fair,”“I did not know that you play fair, you don’t seem to consider taking turns when you readily agreed to Vincent that

“What? No,” he says with a small chuckle and turns to glance at Aurora who is sleeping peacefully on the bed through the glass, he turns to face the view again.“Of course, I won’t be able to come since fucking rival 1.0 is right there,” she says and Maverick can picture her doing an eye roll. “Why the hell did you call me?”“Because you will be the only one awake at this time,”“Of course, that shit ass beta of yours will be on fucking period and will subtract your head from you fucking neck if you wake him up.”“I am glad that you know that.”“How is the fucking situation?” she asks and he is silent for a bit, his eyes sweeping over the many small lights in the distance.“We have decide to be friends,”“Wait? What? You have decided to be friends?! You fucking talked about it?!” she yells which makes Maverick remove the phone from his ear to protect his eardrums. “You didn’t talk about it?! None of you fucking mentioned the freaking past and just decides to be damn friends?”“You kno

“Are you sure that there’s still no room in this damn hotel?” Aurora asks the bitchy receptionist who is now glaring at her.“I am going to say this for the last time ma’am, there is no room available for the rest of this month, we are booked fully.”“There won’t be anything if I offer to pay three times the amount.”“Would you like it if I kicked you out because someone offered to pay threefold, Ma’am? Even though I will do that to you without being offered so much.” she asks but mutters the last part and Aurora scoffs. The only reason the woman is not tearing her hair is because one of the executives is in the premises, and if a receptionist of an hotel who prides the opinion of the clients is found insulting one of the clients, shit will go down for the said employee, there must also be the press lurking around somewhere too.“Now get out of my sight ma’am. There’s nothing I can do and why the fuck are you even hell-bent on not sharing the room with that gorgeous man, I mean, I wi

“And whatever do you mean by ‘You are Maverick Prill and room 232 is yours?’ What about the second room? My room?” Aurora asks the peachy receptionist.“Exactly what you heard. Do you have some difficulty hearing stuff?” The woman replies sarcastically and Aurora almost scoffs.This is the problem with having a pack in a place crowded by humans, even when they need to show courtesy, they end up being super duper rude, Aurora can bet her life on it that if this woman is a werewolf and knows of her reputation, she will do well to talk to her with a lot of respect.“So you are trying to say that there's only one room reserved under our name?” Maverick asks with a raised brow, practically asking the same question as Aurora, the man seems to have a hard time believing it since he is the one that made a reservation for two rooms himself.“Yes handsome. It appears that way and even though I don't want your gorgeous self to spend the next two weeks in the same place as her,” she says to Maver

“I didn't know that Alpha Maverick had a private jet at his disposal,” Easton snickers sarcastically and Alec scoffs.“What do you think we are? Some barbarians that stay in a place?”“I don't think that you are too far from that,” Kael says.“Except for the fact that this pack is the richest pack in the whole southern area and top five in the whole world, you must be an imbecile to think that they commute on foot,” Layla pipes up and both Kael and Easton glares at her.“Which pack are you from exactly?” Easton asks and Layla shrugs.“Why don't you switch packs and declare yourself as a bonafide member of the Moonlight Pack instead of being a backstabber?” Kael asks but Layla only pokes her tongue out at him.“I would have done that but then that means that their beta will have to follow me, you can't function properly without your Beta and your beta can't function at all without me_”“Who fed you those delusions?” Kael asks.“Need I remind you of went down with your beta these past t
