Kaden had just woken up from sleep because of the nightmare he had. A really bad one that made his heart race so fast and his chest constrict in fear. His breathing was loud and uneven, his body trembling with anxiety. He couldn’t even tell what exactly it was that was making him so uneasy. His mind just kept going back to what his nightmare had been about – the war,the blood and death. His death. His skin prickled with goosebumps at the memory and he sat up in his bed shivering, his breath coming out in short gasps as sweat dripped down his forehead, his eyes wide open and unblinking. He tried blinking them closed as well, but it seemed like they were stuck together now, refusing to part. The voice in his dream kept echoing in his head “You can't change fate!!!” and it sent chills down his spine. But why? Why could he not change things?He thought about it for a second more while his thoughts slowed and his racing heart calmed down. ‘But why would the moon goddess giv
Amara opened her eyes slowly, blinking several times to adjust to the darkness surrounding her. She tried moving but immediately noticed that both her wrists were handcuffed to the bedposts above her head. She was lying flat on her back, facing the ceiling. As her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she realised she was in her room, the room and grew up in before Kaden betrayed her. She looked at the IV drip and monitor hooked to the stand on her right side. “You are awake” she heard a female voice and turned in that direction, she saw a blonde lady but from the white coat she was putting on she guessed, she was a Doctor. The doctor was standing next to the end of her bed and as Amara lifted herself from the bed with effort, her head felt slightly fuzzy. She winced and clutched her forehead as she felt dizzy for a few seconds. “How are you feeling?” The doctor asked softly and Amara frowned confused. “Where am I? Where is Kaden..?” She asked quickly but when she turned her gaze tow
Dylan’s Pov Tossing and turning on my bed all night and I still can't find an ounce of sleep. The alleged letter from Amara is by my bedside and I keep staring at it. The letter is so simple and I know she didn't write it. Something is fishy but what could it be? Should I invade Kaden’s pack to find her? and what if she is not there? I will end up causing war. No, that's not good. Or maybe I should send spies into his kingdom? He talked about his mate the last time he came here, could his mate be Amara? I quickly canceled that thought because the moon goddess can not give one person as a mate to two people. I looked at the time and it was 3 am, I should go out for air. The heating season is coming and I hope I survive without Amara here. I used Elana then for pleasure but there is no way I'm touching her now that I have found my mate even though she isn't around for now. I will just instruct Barton and Aidan to chain me in the basement cells. I stood up and walked
It was already morning, while the maids were up and about Princess sat by the balcony with her canvas, paints and brushes. The sun wasn't fully up yet, only beginning to peek over the horizon. There was a light dusting of pink in the sky, along with clouds slowly rolling in from the west. It would probably rain later today. Not that she cared. She had no need for rain, but it would have been nice if there would have been clouds covering this beautiful view, so she could paint something else. Instead, the sky looked like it always does. she decided to take up her brother’s advice to paint, she knew it was a long time since she painted but she was going to try. Looking out at the sky she decided to paint an image from her memory. She didn't expect anything to happen today, but she thought that maybe painting would help relieve some stress she had. She dipped one finger into a bottle of water on the table before sitting down and started dabbing away gently at
Elder Fletch was the last to come in for the follow-up meeting of yesterday “Good afternoon Alpha and my fellow elders.” he greeted them as he entered inside ignoring Aidan, Barton, Cecelia, and Jeffery “Good morning” Dylan replied “You kept us waiting” Elder Mervin spoke out “I had a family emergency, my youngest grandson refused to eat” Elder Fletch explained “I'm sorry for keeping you guys waiting” he further added. Dylan nodded at him as he sat down “Now that we are all here, we can start the meeting” Dylan told the group “So we all can't go to the witch kingdom leaving our pack unattended do” Cecelia “Yes, that's right” Jeffery added “Well, I never planned to go with all of you” Dylan said “And what do you mean by you never planned to go with all of us?” Aidan asked shocked at Dylan’s response “Aidan, there is no way, I will leave the pack with all of you” Dylan replied trying to make his beta see his point “And who says you're even going on this journey?” Aidan asked
Dylan’s Pov There was a lot of alcohol consumed and lots of fun activities being performed. Couples make out at different corners of the house. Boys flirting and the popular kids trying to impress one another. I had a blast though, I laughed until I cried and danced until my feet blistered. At around 3 am we got tired and decided to go home. Since I was a wolf my alcohol tolerance was high, so I was in a good condition to drive.We climbed into my jeep and headed home. When he got to the pack house, the lights were on and a lot of people were gathered. “Dylan, we are busted,” Aidan said to me “Who cares we can always sneak inside,” I told him “No” he protested “Let's just go and ask for forgiveness then,” I told him jokingly but he took me seriously and opened the door and started screaming “We are sorry and won't go out party with humans anymore” The crowd turned to him but instead of scolding him because I was still in the car all they did was shook their head. Something wa
Dylan’s Pov The witch leaders welcomed me warmly as I bowed to them, I introduced myself and explained why we had come. Their Queen whose name I got to find out was Sheila, wasn’t exactly welcoming. She looked like she was scared of something, not just her though, but everyone in the room but they seem to be covering it up.“Our seer is currently unavailable and won’t be able to attend to you Alpha, Dylan,” Queen Sheila told us curtly It felt like my whole world had fallen apart. I had high hopes of finding Amara with their help. “We can wait for her” I suggested but the queen looked at me with pity in her eyes and then said“We have been waiting for her too, Alpha. You see, some time ago we were visited by a powerful and wicked witch who seeked the seer’s help, and after the witch left. Our seer who happens to be my daughter lost her senses and withdrew from everyone” I could hear the sadness in her voice and see the pain in her eyes.“I’m so sorry about that queen Sh
Cmara’s Pov Since the incident with Kaden, I haven't seen him and since he hasn't come to my room, I decided not to go out. The maids served me and the nurses been coming in to check on me regularly. I asked about Dr. Jessen but was told she was busy with other patients so she couldn't come to see me. I had just come out of the bathroom when I heard a knock on my door. I opened it to find Kaden standing outside. "What do you want?” I asked him as the memories from that night flashed through my head.“Just checking up on you,” he said, leaning against my door frame. “You haven’t come out of this room” He eyed my room and frowned, looking around me with concern written all over his face. “Won’t you like the take a walk around the house?” he asked“No, thank you,” I replied He chuckled “I don’t want you confined to just one place again, Amara.” He said wanting to touch my face but I swarted his hand. “Don’t touch me,” I warned him.He raised an eyebrow at me as if aski
