CHAPTER 178 THE VEILTEDDY'S P.O.V I wanted to reach out and touch it, but what if my touch was what they needed? I know that was sort of far-fetched, but this unwavering feeling in the pit of my stomach wouldn't go away. "What do you think we should do?" Novalee asked, her hand still outreached, touching the magical barrier. "Call the people we have to meet, let's start there." I said while looking around our surroundings. We were on a dirt road that was dead smack in the middle of nowhere. Trees were tightly coiled on either side of the road. It honestly felt like a breath of fresh air if you asked me. The air seemed more breathable than it normally did back home. A piece of me felt at home. Like I wasn't dying on the inside anymore. "Fenirs ." I huffed out in disbelief. That was the only thing that made sense. He had to be here. "What did you say?" "I feel him all around me. In the air I breathe. I feel almost normal." I said as I approached the veil. "I need to take it dow
CHAPTER 179 TORTUROUS REALITYFENIRS 'S P.O.V The reality of this universe was depressing. It took me a while to figure out the meaning behind what Sibil had said to me. 'A world without you, Is a world of living hell, A world where life won't matter, A world I wouldn't care to dwell.' It was a piece of a poem I found online by a creator named Mon Fur. I had once recited it for Teddy on a date as a woe. I wasn't even sure how Sibil knew that. But with each passing day the words sank deeper and deeper into my heart. "This is your curse to bear. Until I get my artifacts you will be a figment of their imaginations. They won't see you but you will see them. You will watch them as they live their lives without you. You'll always be there, but they'll never know." Her words replayed in my head everyday. More so on the nights where Teddy would sit there crying while my son watched her, confused and hurt himself. Seeing them break down their walls every night while looking at my photo
CHAPTER 180 LIFE WITHOUT YOUTEDDY'S P.O.V I watched as my little boy played with his race cars on the ground. Admiring how innocent his poochy little face was. "Eh." The baby fussed, grabbing my attention. "Does someone need to burp?" I asked in a cooing voice. A smile taking the place of an upset little face. Her golden eyes staring deep into mine, making me miss her Daddy even more. I wished she had the chance to meet him. She would've had him completely wrapped around her finger. My chest clenched with the thought of Fenirs . So much has happened since his disappearance. It's been six months since I met with Sibil, which means he has been gone for almost seven months. Seven months of my son growing up without his Daddy. Seven months of our daughter never knowing the tender gentle touch of her Daddy. Seven long months of her not knowing where she gets her big beautiful kind eyes from. I closed my eyes, reminiscing about the last moment I had with my mate. *** Flashback: "I
CHAPTER 181 LEADTEDDY'S P.O.V Finally, after all this time we are taking a step in the right direction. At least I hoped we were. I didn't want to get excited and get my hopes up for the millionth time. But this was the first time someone had mentioned a lead in months. What kind of lead was it? Was it a lead on the location of the hidden items? Or maybe a lead on where Sibil was hiding Fenirs ? Then there was also the possibility of it being a lead on information about breaking Sibil's curse. Which in turn would finally free Zola from the death curse. Any lead on anything was better than none. Plus, the possibility of getting any answers that we were seeking was what we were working so hard to do. At least we were no longer at a standstill. As far as I was concerned that was progress in itself. As much as I wanted my mate back, I wanted the murders to stop more. Not only were random peoples lives at stake, but so was Zola's and I had promised Novalee that I would stop at nothing
CHAPTER 182 BACKSTABBERFENIRS 'S P.O.V Living in the shadows allowed me to see things I never would've seen if I were actually there. I didn't realize how corrupt my Kingdom really was. I thought I had taken care of the corruption when I took care of the Elders and Kirk. But here I am witnessing things I never thought I would. Especially from people I never thought would do me wrong. I sat in my office watching my best friend actively backstabbing me. The worst part was, all I could do was watch. I couldn't hit him, or even simply confront him. How had I not noticed his fishy behavior before? He was always there for me, through everything. And now that he has his hands on my title, by default of course, his true colors have started to shine. He was on the phone trying to figure out a way to remain being the Alpha King of Blood Moon Pack indefinitely. I thought that he was never one to care about the enrichments of titles. Over all the years I had given him so much credit when in r
CHAPTER 183 RED WATERTEDDY'S P.O.V After talking with Uriah an unsettling feeling washed over me. Why was he acting so strange? I couldn't quite figure out what had changed. But something had. I hadn't known Uriah long, but in the few years I've known him, he had never acted this way. "Momma, Momma!" "What my sweet boy?" "Bad man, ouchie!" He must've seen something on TV. "What happened to the bad man?" "Red water." Did he mean wine? "Did he spill it on himself?" "Red-" He paused, looked to his side, then back at me. "Lud." What was lud? "Oh, really?" I asked, acting as if I had understood what he meant. "Safe." He then said to himself. Something he tended to do often. People have told me it's abnormal. However, Kenedy, our pack therapist, said children often create imaginary friends. That children who create imaginary companions actually engage in high levels of positive self-talk which helps them have more positive social development. So, at least I can say that's goi
CHAPTER 184 THE HITTEDDY'S P.O.V One minute I was performing CPR on Novalee and the next I was being yanked out of the flipped bus by the hair on my head. What the hell was going on here? "Who are you?" I asked with anger laced in my tone. "I'm the one who will put an end to the powerful Tribal wolf and her little family." The mentioning of my family along with the phrase 'put an end to', had my entire body boiling with the overprotective rage I felt when it came to my children's safety. "You are going to wish you never fucked with us!" I screamed while making my eyes flash between my normal color and the vibrant red. Power swirling around us, the color telling him that I meant business. "Op, I almost forgot." He said while taking out dust and blowing it in my face. I coughed with the ingestion, a feeling washing over me before a stranger feeling occurred. What was this? "An herb one might call it. It was given to me to enable your so-called goddess given gifts as the Tribal
CHAPTER 185 I FIXTEDDY'S P.O.V It was as if I was back in my dreams. I could see him. I could hear him. But could I touch him? Was he really there? I reached my hands out, cusping his magnificent face within them. Not realizing how badly I missed his touch. It has to be real, I could feel him. Which meant this was not a dream. No, he was here. Either that or we were there. Whatever it was, I was glad because that meant we were together again. Even if we are together in death, at least we are together again. "The kids." I spoke out in a whisper, unable to form any of the other words swirling in my mind. "You take care of them, I've got this scum bag." Fenirs said in a soft yet demanding tone. At that moment, Elias jumped into my arms. His tiny face swirling with so many emotions. Surely not understanding completely what was happening, but enough to know it was bad. "Mommy hurt." Tears began to fall down his chubby cheeks as he peered up at me. "Mommy is safe. Because her big,
