YARA’S POVMy head hurt so bad when I opened my eyes and my lips felt dry and chapped. I licked my lips as II opened my eyes wider to see where I was and it was my room.“She lost too much blood when she got stabbed. That is why her health is not steady yet and she can’t walk around for a few more days. She really needs bed rest to help her body heal faster” I heard a voice say and I wondered who it could be because I thought I was alone.“So how long do you think she needs to be in bed now?” I heard Alpha Deenver’s voice follow after the strange man’s voice and there was silence for a while before the strange man spoke again.“A week is enough. The wound won’t heal in a week though but it would be enough to make her strong enough to walk around if she wants to.” “That’s great then. You can leave now Stephen” Alpha Denver replied and once I heard the name, a vague memory of Alpha Denver yelling the name when I was stabbed and still bleeding flashed and I remembered the man who was wa
YARA’S POVNINE DAYS LATER…I was made to stay in bed for a week. I tried to put up a fight at first but thanks to Leo and Mark, they held me down and it was no use to even try and fight against them because I was too weak to do so. So I had to do as they said, under Alpha Denver’s order, and ended up staying in bed for a whole week and two days. It was the worst way to punish me because it felt like I was jailed and at a point, it felt like I was losing my mind.Freya was the only person I saw throughout that period while Leo and Mark hung outside the room and her presence was really helpful as she kept me company, made me take my medication, changed the dressing on my wound, and checked up on me to see if I was improving as time passed. I wasn’t going to admit it though, because I was too stubborn to do so but I was actually improving during my forced bed rest, and by the time a week and two days were gone and over, I felt much better and the cut on my stomach from the stab was onl
ALPHA DENVER’S POVI had a lot to do at work. Thanks to Yara, I had to take days off to watch her as the palace’s physician treated her while she remained unconscious because I didn’t want to take the risk of letting anything happen to her while I wasn’t there. Stephen knew she was a witch and due to the shared hatred that the whole pack had for witches, he could be negligent while he treated her and then she would end up dead, making my whole deal with her be in vain and I may have to live without my powers for life… I couldn’t let that happen so I had to sacrifice a few days of work at the company and hotels to watch over her while she remained unconscious.As I got ready for the day while putting on my suit, I remembered what had happened earlier in the morning when Freya came to me in a panic, saying that Yara was missing and she wasn’t in her room. I didn’t know what to think, all I saw was red and at first, the plan was to grab Yara by the neck when I found her and squeeze hard,
YARA’S POVI was bored staying in the room all day long so I decided it was high time I told Leo and Mark that I was completely fine and I would take a walk if I wanted to. I knew Alpha Denver wasn't around and that was probably going to make them more adamant to let me have my way but I wasn't going to let them keep me locked inside the room. I had to get out before I lost my mind.I stood up from where I lay on my bed idly and looked at the door. I really hoped they were both going to listen to me because I could choose to yell at them for as long and loud as I wanted but they would still ignore me if they wanted to.With a sigh, I walked to the door and placed my hand on the knob then I closed my eyes and dragged in a long breath. This had to work.Opening my eyes and exhaling, I pulled open the door and there they both stood right in front of my room to keep guard over me. This was tiring because it wasn't like I had any Intention to run away. I needed my wings too so it wouldn't
YARA’S POVThe man whose name I finally knew was Cillian, was soon out of sight as he walked away and I finally looked back at Alpha Denver and Luna Amanda as they both glared at each other and I made sure not to make a sound so Alpha Denver wouldn’t ask me to leave. I looked over at Leo and Mark and they looked very uncomfortable to be there but I didn’t care. I didn’t want to miss the show that was about to start.“What is all this about? Why did you want to hit her, Amanda?” alpha Denver asked as he directed his gaze to her and she looked at me. I shrugged with a smile and she rolled her eyes before she looked back at Alpha Denver who was waiting for an answer.“It was nothing alpha,” she said and he looked at me.“What happened Yara?” he asked me, thinking I would answer and I shook my head.“Nothing happened so just let it go,” I said to him and he eyed me. He knew I was lying but what happened between me and Luna Amanda was none of his business.I wasn’t going to let him fight f
YARA’S POV“What do you mean by that? Is something going on between them?"Alpha Denver asked me as his brows knitted together with confusion laced on his face and I shrugged, still making that clueless face.“I mean, when you came over to us outside the palace. Cillian was behind you and when I looked at him, I saw the way he looked at Luna Amanda. I looked like he felt something for her but I didn’t want to jump to conclusions because that may not be the case” I said to him and he ran his hand through his hair. He looked like he was deep in thought about the heavy information I just dropped on him and I was having a good time watching him. I knew he felt absolutely nothing for Luna Amanda, I was sure he was even going to be happy the day she would finally realize he didn’t want her and she would leave his pack but one thing I knew about Alpha Denver was that he hated to share.He didn’t like Luna Amanda but if she was having an affair with his beta, that was going to be an insult to
CHAPTER 32YARA’S POVAn hour and thirty minutes later, just when the sun was beginning to dawn and the place was getting bright, I heard Alpha Denver’s footsteps as he walked down the passage and I knew he was done with his training. “Why did he have to wake me up that early if he knew he was going to make me wait for this long?” I wondered out loud to myself as I got up from the bed and went for the door.I opened it and he was about to walk into his room. He stopped to look at me and I frowned.“You deliberately woke me up by that time right?” I asked him and he smirked. He looked like he was having a good time and I wanted to smack him so hard.“Glad you figured that out. I didn't want you to be asleep while I was training. Even if you can't train, you have to be awake and wait while I train until I'm ready to go to work” he replied and I didn't wait for him to say anything else to me. I slammed the door hard and I could hear him chuckle from the other side before he went into hi
YARA’S POVAnytime I tried to make conversation with anyone in the office, they just stared at me like I had grown two heads before they would walk away and soon, I could feel eyes on me in the office where Alpha Denver had directed me to stay… Claiming it was going to be an experience for me. Well, it was quite an experience but it wasn't the kind that I liked. I wanted to return back to my room in the palace.Tired of being constantly looked at like I had horns on my forehead because I was a witch, I made my way to Alpha Denver’s office and he looked very busy. He was deeply immersed in his work but I could tell that he knew when I came in.“Are you finding your new space in the office fun?” he asked me while scribbling something on the corner of a paper and I didn't reply at first.I busied myself with looking around in the office and I stopped when I got to a shelf in the office that held a collection of awards with his name engraved in the plated gold on them. There were about fi
THIRD POVTHREE MONTHS LATER…For the first time, the SINNICA pack was hosting a new moon festival and everyone was excited about it. Especially the new beta, Freya because she was the one who brought up the idea for Alpha Denver and he instantly liked it.It had been months since the attack and Yara left.Alpha Denver made sure to give Cillian the punishment he deserved and now he was history as he had chosen for himself, a new beta who was more competent and trustworthy, but even though things were running smoothly, the absence of Yara was still there and he missed her dearly. It was like a huge part of his heart was carved out when he woke up after the attack and was told that she was gone. He searched for her, did all he could, and reached out to everyone he knew who could help to look for her but she was never found. He had no idea where she was or what she was doing. He didn’t even know if she was alive or not and it saddened him to know that he lost the only woman that he had
LUNA AMANDA’S POVI didn’t need to do a lengthy introduction of myself to the army since they all knew who I was already. The alpha was going to be the one leading the army with me by his side as an accomplice and guide into the palace and after a short orientation with the army, they all understood what we were going to the SINNICA pack for. I left my parents behind since they couldn't join in the war to come and that night, we made our way to the pack after I told Cillian we were on our way.We got to the borders of the pack and it was all empty thanks to Cillian who had reassigned the guards before we arrived. We had easy access to the pack but the problem was with the subject. They all began to scream out for help once they saw us and most of them rushed into their houses to protect themselves. A guard was about to go after a woman but I quickly stopped him and made sure to remind him that the target tonight was Alpha Denver and no one else which meant the subjects were exempt.
LUNA AMANDA’S POVThe drive back to my pack was a very quiet one and it was obvious that all of us were seething with anger. Alpha Denver just rejected me as his Luna after I stayed by his side for so many years and he thought I wasn't going to retaliate?He made me feel like I was nothing for so long and even mistreated me several times in front of the maids so if he thought I wasn't going to act and make him pay, he must have really underestimated me.I already had plans working like wheels in my mind and having Cillian back in the pack was a bonus for me because he was going to let me know about everything that was going on back there without any effort. I sighed before I rested my head against the window of the car and soon, we had arrived at our mansion in our pack.It had been so many years since I had seen this mansion and seeing it before me again brought back many memories of the years I spent in it as a child, when I was still happy and living a contented life before I fel
YARA’S POVIt had been two days since the fight I had with Alpha Denver and we didn’t speak to each other. I had been holed up in my room throughout without breakfast, lunch, or dinner and sometimes, in the middle of the night, I would hear him groaning and yelling out in pain and I knew it was because of the cursed poison that Allison cast on him.It was a struggle not to get up from my bed and go over to his room to check on him whenever he was having his headache episodes at night but I wondered if he even wanted me there with him. We told each other that we didn't trust each other and that alone was enough to destroy every atom of feeling that we had for each other. So what if I went to see him and then he told me that he didn’t want me around him? It was even going to hurt me more than I already felt and it would be unbearable.So I figured it was best to keep my distance. Especially since he didn’t mind enduring the pain rather than having me help him by returning my wings to me
YARA’S POVI didn’t know if I was supposed to be angry or if I should try and hold myself back because he was in pain. But he yelled at me. He wouldn’t talk about my wings and when I insisted, he decided to yell at me and that did it for me.I wasn’t going to stand back and let him yell at me for what was originally mine for no reason so I had to make him explain. I wanted to hear his side and know exactly why he wouldn’t give my wings back to me.So I followed him as he walked away from the throne room and I set my foot out to stop the door from shutting in my face when he walked into his room.“Make me understand, Denver. Tell me exactly why you don’t want to talk about returning my wings to me. Tell me why you don’t seem like you want to even give it to me at all” I yelled at him and he groaned with his head still palmed. He was still in pain and as much I cared, there was nothing I could do except he gave my wings back to me.“Yara, please, don’t” he began and I stomped my foot on
ALPHA DENVER’S POVI walked to the throne room with Yara right behind me and my head hurt so badly. It felt like I was getting pricked with a thousand needles in the brain and I imagined myself losing my mind due to the unbearable pain. I wished I hadn't gotten so close to Allison, then she wouldn’t have done this to me.Luna Amanda’s mother came for me immediately. I walked into the throne room and she grabbed me by the collar of my shirt with anger in her eyes but I was too focused on the fact that Yara was asking for her wings to care about Luna Amanda’s mother throwing a tantrum in my face. So I grabbed her by her hands and pulled them off my collar before I pushed her off me and she fell but I didn’t care.I walked to the throne and took my seat while Yara tried to help her up but she only yelled at her to keep her distance and Yara didn’t say a word as she let her go and came to join me where I sat. Then I watched Amanda’s father help her mother up before they came toward me an
YARA’S POVI thanked the guard who always kept watch by the palace dungeon after he opened the caged door for us and he nodded back at me with a polite smile before I walked into the dungeon along with Alpha Denver who was leading the way. There was an array of caged cells on both sides of the dungeon and there wasn’t a single ray of sunshine or light in there. I couldn’t help but wonder how it must have taken a toll on the prisoners mentally and that made me wonder if Allison was fine.I caught up with Alpha Denver who was walking faster and I held onto the tip of the sleeve of his shirt so I wouldn’t lose him. Then he looked back at me with a smile and I blushed. I wondered if it was crazy of me to be blushing in such a place so I quickly kept a straight face and we kept on walking in silence. A while passed and we still hadn’t gotten to Allison’s cell so I tugged on AlphaDenver’s shirt to get his attention and he looked at me.“Aren’t we there yet? This place is beginning to feel l
LUNA AMANDA’S POVI had been locked up for the past three days inside my room and I was beginning to lose my mind gradually as the days wore on. My nose was still aching badly from the punches Alpha Denver gave to me days ago and I hadn’t been attended to by the palace’s physician yet. My lunch was passed to me from beneath the door like I was a prisoner and when I had demanded that I wanted a maid to attend to me, they all said the same thing… Alpha Denver had ordered that no one open the door for me.To make matters worse, he didn’t bother apologizing to me when he was supposed to. I was the one who was wronged because he cheated on me with a witch and he wasn’t going to say he was sorry? If he had apologized to me, then maybe I wouldn't have been so pissed and I would probably have let all he had done to me go but since he wanted to show he wasn’t wrong in any way, I was going to put him in his place and it was going to be soon.I grabbed the phone I had secretly hidden in my roo
YARA’S POVThe physician carried one last check-up on me after my wound mysteriously healed and in his state of shock, he said I was free to go since I was completely fine. Together with Freya and alpha Denver, I was taken to his room and he sat me down on his bed while Freya closed the door.“What happened Yara? How did your wound get to heal just like that?” he asked me in a frenzy as he itched to get answers and I watched him for a while. I was the only one that could tell him that his pack was in a looming danger that was coming sooner than we expected and he had to get ready for it.“You have to call down first and listen to me, Denver. This is serious” I said to him and he tucked his hands into his pocket while watching me and waiting. I kept my eyes on him to let him know I meant what I was saying and he finally sat down to listen. I looked at Freya who stood by the door and I nudged her over to join us since she was obviously on our side so she came over and sat down on one
