“It could affect her in the future, not all the power in the seal was removed and she could have issues controlling her power in the future.” I murmured and Xander nodded.
“Traces of the Seal still linger on her and like you said, it could possibly affect her in the future. However, this might be a good thing. If we are able to determine the origin of the seal while it is still on her, we will be able to remove the rest of its traces. But for now, Miss Aileen will have to live with the rest of the seal with you there to protect her when the need arises.” Ryan walked forward to cover Aileen with the blanket. When he went to her, however, he saw that she was wide awake and was staring at him with her blue eyes. In shock, Ryan stepped back but he soon composed himself very quickly, the surprise that was etched on his face had disappeared.
“Miss Aileen, you’re awake.” Immediately he said that, I stood up from my chair and went to her side, her drowsy eyes turned to me and I smiled, “You are awake, you have done well Aileen.”
“Water… I need water.”

AUTHOR’S POV
“Master, to the west, about ten kilometers from here another werewolf has awakened. It might be her.”
Within the shadows, a man, tall and handsome chuckled deeply. His thin lips opened slightly to speak and a rough nasal voice asked, “Is that so? Is she taken?”
“Yes. She seems to be the mate of someone else, however, that person did not leave a trace and no matter how much I searched, I could not find his whereabouts. He must be someone powerful.”
“Hmm…” This person had a very calm voice; he wore a white fox mask that only covered only half of his face and revealed his beautiful lips and half of his nose and he also looked a bit tan. Compared to the person who reported to him, his skin was like that of a new born baby, smooth and very shiny. He stood up from the chair he sat on and slowly walked towards where the other man stood. Carefully tapping the man’s shoulders, he stood behind him and slightly touched his neck. His long fingers traced a line around the man’s neck.
Unsuspecting, the man tilted his head to allow the masked man more access as he asked, “Master? Is something… Ugh!” The man spat out blood, his eyes wide as he fell to the ground. The masked man had killed his spy. The masked man wiped his hands on the now dead man’s clothes; he walked forward, his eyes on someone who was standing behind the shadows.
“Take care of the body. We will be leaving to the next city in a few days’ time.” The masked man said and another person who was behind the shadows nodded, his purple eyes fixed on the dead body that was on the ground. This man has always been cruel. But, it is for a good cause.
“Yes, Master.” They would leave this dark place and officially, their quest would begin.

AILEEN’S POV
“Drink slowly; there is more water if you want.” The old man who fed me water said, he carefully patted me on my back as I coughed while drinking water. I was shocked by how readily he touched me and even more shocked that I didn’t feel revolted or disgusted. Did this have to do with the fact that we are both alike? I remembered that the moment I woke up, the first thing I asked of was water and I didn’t find it funny because as someone who had not drank water for a while, my throat was so dry so could someone tell me the reason why this man here was laughing?
Once I was done with the water, the old man took the glass cup away from me and stepped away, he even bowed to me a little. I was confused but I didn’t say anything, I wanted to know what was going on and who these people were. I recognized Xander, I also recognized the silver eyes man and I knew for a fact that he was my mate but what I wanted to know who he truly is. I opened my mouth to speak.
"Who are you?" I asked with cracked and soft voice. I was sure that screamed during my transformation, even the water could not actually make my throat clear.
"I…" The silver eyes man started but the old cleared his throat, interrupting silver eye’s incoming words. Bowing slightly, the old man stated his name and position.
"My name is Ryan and I am the butler of this mansion. Miss Aileen, before we begin an explanation, would you mind if you eat something? You have just awoken and your body is very weak." His voice was respectful but at the same time, it was forceful.
I knew that he would keep on asking me if I didn't agree to eat and I am pretty hungry at the moment so why would I refuse. In a way, he was the same as Xander.
"Your food will be brought to you in a moment." Ryan smiled and went out of the room, leaving only silver eyes and Xander who stood quietly in the room. Silver eyes was still staring at me, he didn’t even care to hide it. I turned my gaze to Xander and although I wanted to speak with him; to exchange pleasantries, his eyes told me not to say anything and to just wait for Ryan to come back.
I wondered why but there wasn’t anything I could say about it so I just conceded. A few moments later, Ryan came back with rare steak and some other fruits. I sighed in relief, even though I had thoroughly enjoyed the food Xander cooked for me last time, I had only meat and no vegetables or even fruits and I loved eating fruits so I was a bit sad.
“Please enjoy your meal.” He served me and shifted back. They all watched as I stuffed my mouth but they didn’t say anything and neither did I care. I was hungry, and that was all that mattered. Once I finished eating, the table was cleared and I was finally ready to listen to everything that happened to me.
I crossed my arms and asked with a stern face, “Now does anyone want to tell me what the heck is going on?”

“Well, I believe Xander has explained some things to you when he first came to visit you? I didn’t want to come myself so I would not overwhelm you with loads of information. I didn’t expect that you would be able to transform so quickly.” Silver eyes said to me as he dragged his chair to sit so close to me and looked me directly in the eye. “You still don’t know how to control your appendages; they’re wagging like you just finished having a treat.” Silver eyes teased me and I blushed, that was foul! How could he compare me to a dog, I was a wolf! A beautiful silver wolf! I had noticed my silver tail when I was eating earlier but I just chose not to mention it. “That day, at the forest, when we first met, you suddenly disappeared. Like, you vanished without any trace; it took a long time before Xander was able to find you. If it wasn’t for the scent you left on the both of us, we would have been unable to track you.” “Okay… I understand but what does that have to do with what is hap

“Can you sense it? Think of the power that coils itself around your heart as a vine, yet this vine does not have thorns." Joshua’s voice swept around my ears like a hungry flame, it was deep and controlling. I gave a satisfied nod; I could, in fact, perceive the force that he was referring to. It pulsated and flowed around my heart like a fish swimming around a pond. It gave out an icy and peaceful vibe, as if it were something that was not meant to be touched. "Take command of it and shape it according to your whims, for your power was created specifically for you to exercise command over it. If you allow it to run uncontrolled, it could put the people around you in risk and, as a result, hurt you as well." Joshua tapped me on the shoulders with the handle of the knife that he was holding. It was a bit uncomfortable though, the cold knife he held, if it was before, I would have welcomed the coldness, but I didn’t anymore. But still, I followed what he said. ‘Tried’ to follow would

AUTHOR’S POV Two days after Joshua and the rest had the conversation, Joshua offered to take Aileen out as she had been in the mansion for a couple of days, without having seen anyone apart from them. "Are you all set?" Joshua asked as he got off the couch, moved closer to her, and offered his hand to her to hold. Aileen placed her hands in Joshua's while she eyed him, but he only smiled and proceeded to twirl one of his fingers around her palm before completely encasing her’s with his large hands. Aileen had seen that Joshua has a strange fondness for holding her hands, and she has to admit that she finds this endearing. "Where are you guys heading to?" Xander inquired, and Ryan also displayed an expression of interest, regarding the plans that they had together. Joshua grinned as he gazed up at the enormous ceilings and said with a chuckle to Aileen, "Since we've been stuck in here for a while, I'd like to take her on a tour of the city. We won't stay out for too long." Aileen's a

AUTHOR'S POV "Are you telling me that I can have this car? You've got to be kidding, right?" Joshua shrugged and put one of his arms on the steering wheel. As he did this, Aileen saw the veins that ran through his arms. Aileen continued to stare at Joshua. Aileen had noticed this when she first saw Joshua's upper body while he was training her, but she would never stop being surprised by his body type and structure. Joshua had a physical shape called an hour glass, which was unusual to see in men at the time. His defined muscular frame and chiseled chest matched his broad shoulders and sculpted arms, which were all hallmarks of his physique. His waist was tight and slender, and it gently transitioned into a toned abdomen, which combined to form a visually pleasing and stunning man. He would be the envy of a great number of guys and perhaps some women. "Are you satisfied with what you see? It will be yours going forward, so you can look at it whenever and whenever you choose; but, w

AUTHOR'S POV "Well, that forest we went to on the way here was just a diversion; the place I was really bringing you is here." Joshua parked the car in front of a massive club that was blasting music quite loudly. Because everything was so loud, Aileen immediately grimaced and covered her ears, but Joshua slowly removed her hands from her ears and held it in his. The heat from his palms enveloped her hands. "It is better to get used to it because then you will be able to associate different sounds with what they truly are." "What exactly do you mean?" Aileen tried to ask a question, but someone cut her off. As Aileen studied him, she noticed the black ears on top of his head twitching against his black outfit. The guy was aware that she was staring at him, so he gave her a tiny bow. When he raised his head again, he had a grin on his lips, and his adorable fangs were visible. "I'll be back in a few hours; in the meantime, you can take care of the car." Joshua gave over the keys to

AILEEN’S POV "Whoa… This spot is stunning; I don’t know how I could have missed it all these years that I stayed here." I breathed in the scent of the clean river and the forest that was some miles away from us. It was a good thing that we chose to come to this place, the smell of alcohol, of sex and everything that was in between burned my nose. I held onto the railings as I raised my head and closed my eyes, I listened to the wind and thought about everything that had happened. The burden that had been weighing on my heart for a prolonged amount of time was finally lifted when I transformed into a werewolf. It had been a very long time since I was able to experience this kind of freedom, this liberty at being myself. I suddenly turned to Joshua who had been staring at me, I felt his eyes but I chose to ignore it. "You haven't been to this place before, have you?” He asked me and I shook my head, my tied hair followed my small movements. Whenever people stopped, they turned to star
TIMELESS: MOONBOUND Chapter 13
Author’s POV As soon as Aileen entered through the portal, her senses were assaulted by the powerful scent of werewolves and the spark of energy. In her line of sight was a vast area of land that was brimming with enticing greenery, the musty aroma of ancient forests, and the scent of the moist ground. The moon hung low in the sky, and its light shone brightly upon all of the werewolves as well as the towering trees. "Does time pass in a different way here?" Aileen had a question. In the other world, it was morning, but here in this place, it's already dark. However, based on the fact that Joshua gave a dismissive nod, it did not appear that this was the case. "The light of the moon always casts a shadow over this world. The elders say that the end of the world will come the day when the sun rises at this location. At the very least, this is what they believe." As Joshua led Aileen through the thick undergrowth, his fingers occasionally brushed against the palms of her hands. The c

AUTHOR’S POV After receiving instructions from Joshua, who had gone out to take care of something else, one of the mansion's maids showed Aileen the way to her room. Both of them proceeded along the hallways in a deafening hush; neither Aileen nor the servants spoke a word, and Aileen did not care; she was immersed in her own thoughts, and she could also sense the menacing eyes that were directed towards her. In addition to this, she questioned something that left her perplexed and wondering, "Why are you leading me in circles? You were instructed to show me the way to my room, weren't you? Even though we have passed by this location three times at this point, we have not yet arrived at where you are taking me to?" Aileen came to a halt in the middle of the hallway, crossing her arms over her chest as she peered at the maid who had been motionless. Aileen scoffed and turned her gaze away from the maid; did she really believe that she would not notice? "If it was your intention to i

CHAPTER 109 {THE END} AUTHOR'S POV “Luna Aileen is still bleeding, bring in some hot water and fresh towels. Quickly!” Servants scurried about in the corridors and hallways as Aileen’s screams of pain rang throughout the entire place. Her curses were also loud enough for people to hear, if she wasn't in a critical condition, it would have been funny. Meanwhile, Joshua was pacing in front of the doors, the smell of his mate's blood was making him more agitated. Joshua had changed, his hair had grown a bit longer, his eyes lighter. He had a half crescent moon on his forehead, a symbol of the Protector. He looked a bit mature now but everyone could feel the nervousness and pain rolling off of him in waves. He winced when Aileen let out another string of curses. “If you impregnate me again, Joshua, I'll make sure to cut it off! I'll castrate you! Arghh!” “Push, Luna Aileen, I can see its head.” “Urghhh!” Aileen let out another scream and in the span of some hours, the cries of ne

Chapter 108AILEEN'S POV “Years ago, my parents were killed by the Dark Realm Lord, just before Sera the Dark Realm was destroyed. I was already a child who had knowledge of those things so I wanted revenge. I joined Sera as a spy, I and my right hand man, Osris started to look for how to get revenge since his parents were also killed and I came across a prophecy. It talked about you and your powers. I don't exactly remember how it goes but it says that anyone who controls your powers would be able to control the werewolf world. I was scared that Sera would find out and she would want to use you. I tried to kill you, as you know. I changed all the books containing your powers so she didn't find out. A lot of people listened to me instead of her. So yeah, all along, I only wanted to kill you because I didn't want you to fall into Sera's hands.” Terry explained as he took us to the runes. I didn't say a word but I didn't think I expected this. I always thought that he was the bad gu
TIMELESS: MOONBOUND Chapter 107
Chapter 107 JOSHUA'S POV “Ugh…” I let out a cry of agony. My chest, along with the rest of my body, was in such excruciating pain that it seemed like I was on fire. Sera had given me something, but she did not disclose the name of the substance; however, it was poisonous. My intestines felt as if they were being gnawed on by a million ants, in addition to the sensation that I was on fire myself. In the beginning, I was cold, but as time went on, the temperature rose so much and then afterwards, I was unable to feel my arms and legs. After then, my eyes turned completely dark, and I was unable to see anything. In spite of the fact that I waited for my hearing to go out as well, the sound was still excruciatingly loud, and the beating that came from the room next to mine was a form of torment. Those three women who came with Aileen were being punished by Sera. To my great relief, Xander and Berry were not present, and neither were the townspeople. So at least, some people were

Chapter 106 AILEEN'S POV“Aileen, Sera, she... she..." Both Elysia and Lia came to a complete stop directly across from us, their eyes widened in surprise. They came to issue a warning to us about Sera, but it was too late; Sera had already become aware of our presence. "Oh, what? Does all of you here have the same goal in mind? I was taken aback when I discovered that the woman who had attempted to kill me and then spied on us was actually with Aileen, Elysia, is it? I have been pondering on many ways in which I could trick you and convince you to join my side. Sadly, I will have to put an end to your life at some point, since you're with Aileen. I hope you don't take offence to that.” Sera gave a shrug and started walking in our direction. Instantaneously, my eyes sharpened, and I moved directly in front of Joshua, shielding him. However, she only smiled at us and stopped some meters away from us. “The fact that you came to my territory and attempted to kidnap my man, assassinat

CHAPTER 105 AUTHOR'S POV Darkness lightened up as the moon rose higher and higher into the sky, and its brilliance descended upon the village below as if there were no problems at all. Owls hooted, insects chirped, and birds sang in the night sky. There was a distinct musical composition that resulted from the sounds, which people would either find irritating or agreeable to the ears. It wasn't just that, though. The villagers gradually emerged from their condition of being puppets, staring at their walls in a state of amazement and wondering what they had been doing when they were in this state.Some of them were overcome with feelings of guilt as they recalled the events that had transpired over the preceding few days. All of these were observed by the pairs of icy blue eyes that were standing in the shadows and watching them with a triumphant smirk on their faces. As they emerged from the shadows, their hair, which was a metallic silver colour, glistened in the wind. They were

CHAPTER 104AILEEN’S POVWhen I told Elysia and the others about what I had seen the following morning, I made sure to include everything that I had seen, without leaving anything out. For a little period, everyone was silent, and I could see that Elysia was attempting to persuade herself to reveal something to us. On the other hand, I did not speak up because I believed that if it was something that she couldn't readily say, then it had to be really horrible.“The fact of the matter is that the three of us were born in the same way that Sera acquired her abilities.” While Elysia began, I, along with Berry and Xander, was unable to comprehend what she was saying."Could you elaborate on your words just a little bit? I'm not entirely sure I understand what you're talking about."All right... When Sera gained her abilities, we were in the castle. You have to understand that our parents were taken captive many years before the conflict broke out. The master of the dark realm was involved

Chapter 103AUTHOR'S POV "Terry, it has been about a month since you have been looking for that woman; why are you still looking for her? It's too late; she's gone, for good!” Sera yelled, her eyes widened in rage. One more debate had been begun by them regarding Aileen and whether or not she had passed away. "Have you located her dead body?" Terry switched his attention to Sera, his eyes narrowing and his lips pressing against one other as he did so. “We did not, but I'm telling you that..." "In the event that we did not find her body, do you not believe that your presumptions are a little distant from the truth? Literally, she vanished before our own eyes! In addition, we have not been able to locate her body since that time; what further leads you to conclude that she is not alive? It is your recklessness that will ultimately lead to your demise, Sera.” Sera scoffed, “Fine! I admit that I'm a bit reckless. You, on the other hand? How could you possibly believe that I am unawar

"He's fine now, isn't he? In addition to that, we were successful in deceiving Sera into believing that the bug is still inside of him. Whew, it was a very fortunate escape." As she leaned against the wall, Elysia closed her eyes and sagged forward. She looked like she was about to fall just from standing for too long. Not only did she have dark circles and eyebags around her slanted eyes, but all of us did as well. "I am relieved that it was successful. So what comes next?" Concerned and hesitant, Xander asked with a low voice. Xander was typically so talkative, so I had never seen him exhibiting such a low profile. “We came to the conclusion that he would be the covert agent inside the manor. In light of the fact that the both of us able to interact telepathically, it would be convenient for me if he could inform us about anything that is occurring inside. Perhaps he could also give us a heads-up whenever Sera is about to organise some other scheme or something.” After removing t

CHAPTER 101AILEEN’S POVAt that moment, we were waiting for Joshua to restore his composure; for him to move his body so we could begin our plan. It has been three days since he made his initial movements, and it appears that he has regained control over his limbs and even his thoughts. Even though right now, his senses were comparable to those of a kid, he was still aware of the fact that if Sera discovered him moving, he would be in danger. By the end of the fourth day, he was already walking on his own. He was even talking to himself, asking where I was and calling my name in a quiet voice, much like a toddler would. Not only did it take everything I had to keep from crying, but it also took everything I had to keep from jumping down from where I was hiding and running to hug him and tell him all of my problems. I could hear footsteps coming towards the room, and Joshua could hear them as well. As a result, he immediately sat down in the exact position that he had been sitting in
