Cassie’s POV

“Are you sure you want to do this? There’s still time for you to back out.”

It was Lucia. Her eyebrows were pulled up with her eyelids, tensed. Vertical wrinkles appeared between her eyebrows. She was visibly distraught. The clear indication of fear and worry that I could sense from her was making my heart melt. Truly, this girl cared for me and I was happy to know that.

“Don’t worry, Lucia. Mama would not let anything bad happen to me,” I exclaimed while holding her hand. She took a slightly-hesitant nod before smiling at me awkwardly. “I wish you well. May you come out safe from this room.” She hugged me one time before proceeding on chaining my hands and feet. I was totally naked and exposed while chained on top of this table.

I was in an unfamiliar room, a hidden part under the Purple Castle Bar. The room was covered with thick bricks, probably to seclude the sound from coming out. I could only imagine what type of sounds they were trying to cover and I wasn’t inter

This is going way overboard. I have had enough of this story. Witchctaft doesn't interest me in a book. This is an unfair way to play. And guess what, it is still Aria who is going to suffer! She should have rejected Adrian and gone with Nixon. Cassie is going to bring troubles again. I am done!

I’m done with this book!! Once a witch pops in like this I’m over it! I like to see normal scheming without witchcraft!

Aria has suffered enough. I don’t like when every author makes one person suffer over and over again, this is when I lose interest.

    Aria’s POV“Something Shiny, Something Woody, Something Given, Comes with two.”Growing up, I often hear this old, werewolf rhyme whenever a wedding was to happen in our pack. It was a tradition wherein a she-wolf bride-to-be was expected to carry anything that corresponds to the requirements of the rhyme on her wedding day. Doing so would bring good luck to their marriage. While there was nothing wrong with following old traditions, I also didn’t think this was a requirement. Why? Because I believe that the key to a blissful union lies in the hands of the two persons inside the marriage. As the old saying goes, it takes two to tango. If I were to ask, I never dreamt of an extravagant wedding. I didn’t see myself in some highly-embellished gown or wearing expensive pieces of jewelry on my big day. I also didn’t want a wedding with too many guests that I, or should I say we, didn’t have a personal connection with. I would be happy to have a simple ceremony surrounding my family and a

    Cassie’s POV “Cassie! You looked…different.” Lucia gazed up at me wide-eyed. She was staring at me from head to toe and wearing a mixture of shock and astonishment on her face. A few days ago, I came here with a broken heart and a shattered soul. But today, I came back beaming with hope and confidence. I couldn’t blame Lucia for reacting this way. She bore witness to probably one of the lowest points in my life. She also sent me to the secret room underneath this bar and probably expected me to come out of it dead. But here I am, walking confidently in her front. “Hello, Lucia.” It must have been too overwhelming for her to see me at my best a few days after that ordeal. Even I was a bit surprised by the turn of events. Just a few days after I gave up my ability to conceive, I was back to my old self. I flipped my wavy, blonde hair flaunting my white, sexy, bodycon dress. The slightly-squared collar was highlighting the form of my perfect breasts. Indeed, I never felt this beauti

    Ironheart’s POVThe Ironheart Wolf was a legendary bounty hunter. He was known throughout the continent for hunting down werewolves. From rogues to criminals, you name it! During the Ironheart’s prime, he was able to hunt down every single werewolf that was assigned to him to be found. And the best part, he didn’t ask for any fee. So one may ask about the things that he got from doing an incentive-free job. Well, the answer was easy. Hunting makes him happy. The thrill and adrenaline rush he felt every time he ran after his prey was euphoric for him. The satisfaction he was getting from completing a mission was beyond comprehensible that even a big sum of money could not buy it. But his happy days ended when he was called to rule his father’s pack as his only heir. And that was the biggest mistake he ever did in his life. And that fool was me. “I don’t know who that fuck he is. Try asking another wolf,” I uttered to the man without even looking at him. I started dusting off the dir

    Loki's POV The sound of my boots echoed through the forest trail I was following now. I never thought that I would come back to this type of feeling years after I accepted my father’s appointment. Everything feels…surreal. All circumstances were different now. Before, I was hunting people for fun and satisfaction. But now, I am hunting a very special female wolf for ten bars of gold. The realization put a bitter taste in my mouth. Never in a million years, did I imagine myself hunting down some werewolves for money. That was never my thing. But my fate led me to it. Cassie Williams was my ticket to getting my life back. From a distance, I saw a bar sign. Royal Cave Club, it said. My mouth formed a faint smile as I gazed at the dancing lights surrounding it. It looked very alluring, especially to wanderers like me. I scanned the outside of the bar the moment the place was revealed to my eyes. The bar looked fancy but not also held a welcoming vibe. The place was both rustic and c

    Aria’s POVSuddenly, I heard a knock. My mom and Luna Sheila might have forgotten something. I inched towards the door and did not hesitate to open it. But my smile soon disappeared from my face when I saw the person standing outside the door. And her visit was quite unexpected.“C-Cassie,” I whispered. I could only utter her name as I didn’t know how to react. “Hi, Aria,” she said softly. We exchanged awkward glances towards each other. We couldn’t blame each other. Our relationship with each other was nothing but pure awkwardness. To be honest, I didn’t know where all these hatreds had begun. I just woke up one day with Cassie making my life a bit more difficult than it already was. We started to go to school, she would let me get bullied by other kids for being the “weak” sister. A lot of people were expecting me to deliver the same exceptional results as her and when I didn’t, they would hate me for it. As my big sister, I expected her to stand up for me or at least attempt to

    Adrian’s POVEverything was set. The venue was ready. Since the pack house was not equipped with glamorous outdoor illumination, the string of lights hanging on some make-shift lamp posts made it look like tiny stars that went down to the ground to give us some lights. The team who took care of the reception made a good job taking full advantage of the natural splendor surrounding us. The sans tablecloths, the bare wood, and the vases of lush eucalyptus perfectly blend with the scenery, practically growing from Moon Valley itself. Potted flowerless plants mimic the shrubbery of the packhouse yard, making them stunning centerpieces for the tables. The chairs were already aligned. Lanterns and flowers were everywhere. But above all, my favorite thing about this whole wedding aesthetic was the ceremony backdrop. It was nothing but a curtain sheen drapery hanging on the pack’s oldest tree but it posts a certain significance. Because every single male in our family married under this ol

    Aria’s POVI wake up with waves of nausea flooding my senses. My brain felt it would swell beyond what my skull could handle, making me hold my temples and frown. My stomach gurgled as my mouth held an acidic aftertaste. I raised my heavy eyelids halfway only to make them shut once again after trying. I tried raising them again, this time with all my might, and I succeeded. That was when I realized that I was on the floor. I wonder how long I had been lying in here. I scanned myself. My makeup was still intact. My hair, on the other hand, was now changed into a messy bun. But what puzzled me was the dress I was now wearing. My body was now wearing a pink, midi, floral Nikita dress while on my feet was a pair of boots. My forehead creased. I hate wearing boots. So what am I doing with one? I got up in a sitting position and tried to remember what had happened before I got to this point. At first, I didn’t know where to start recalling the events. But after a couple of tries, I final

The nerve of her to come here and do that!Her insanity needs to stop!“That’s enough, Cassie!Hearing my voice, Cassie looked in my direction. Her face was a picture and confusion and distraught. She took a couple of steps forward while looking at me as if I didn’t make sense at all.“What did you just call me? Did you just call me Cassie?”“And what should I suppose to call

    Aria’s POV Three years later… “Blow the candles, mommy!” I smiled at my seven-year-old seeing her grin from ear to ear while holding my birthday cake. I pinched her rosy cheeks before taking a deep breath and puffing the candles. Cheers from the background roared. We were inside Alpha Axel and Luna Sheila’s house where I decided to celebrate my 23rd birthday. Aside from them and their equally cute daughter Krissy who was now playing with my daughter, I invited my close friends and family from Moon Valley to celebrate with us. There’s my mom who was busy handing the food to everyone. Meanwhile, Ash and his wife were having their sweet moments on the couch. He touched Thea’s growing bump. Like him, we couldn't wait to see the new addition to our family. Beside them was Beta Nick, who just found her mate, Klea, recently. Ahh…This is life. And yet, something still feels missing. “Have you heard from him?” It was the voice of Luna Sheila that brought me back from spacing out. “N

    Aria's POVAs the light drains away, I found myself in the same spot over and over. The sky was like a canvas bearing a mixture of orange, red, and pink on its surface. I held to the bouquet of some white roses tighter. I couldn’t wait to give this to him.Finally, I reached the place. Slowly, I put down a bouquet of flowers on top of the elevated land. A cross was sitting on top of it. I remembered the words of Luna Sheila during the time I was still grieving his death. She said, “The pain of losing someone doesn’t go away. It would give you the same intensity regardless of the years that passed. You will just learn to cope with it.”Yes, I was coping. Under this grave was the memory of the person I lost in a blink of an eye. Tears started streaming down my face as I remembered him. I have always remembered him. Always and forever. A lone tear escaped my eyes. It’s been a year since I lost him. But until now, the pain was still in my heart. My face plastered a bitter smile. “Don’t

    Nixon’s POV“Nixon…Nixon…Wake up…”The beautiful voice woke me up. When I opened my eyes, I was welcomed by a lush green valley. The scent of the fresh dew brought by the spring season was mixed with the cold, comforting breeze. I slowly lifted my eyelids and was welcomed by the blue sky doming above me. The sun was nowhere to be found but the whole place was bright and sunny. I got up slowly and scanned the place with my still narrowed eyes. Before I could ask myself where I was, the lovely voice that woke me up from slumber rang in my ears once again.“You are awake, my love. Welcome Elysian Fields,” she stated while plastering the most radiant smile I had seen in my life. The woman had wavy blonde hair and eyes as silvery yellow as the moon. Moreso, she was incredibly beautiful. The maiden was wearing a white knee-length tunic. Her shoulder was armed with a golden bow and arrow. And although her face can surely bewitch every male creature in the land, surprisingly, you will neve

    Aria's POVAlpha Axel, and I along with Darkwood warriors, came on time to the Stone Valley where Stonewood Pack was situated. We came here with nothing but courage and faith. For some, this mission was a suicide. To come here with a small army was no match to the force Blade showed us the other night. We would not sugarcoat this reality. We would not be comforted by a lie that we would be able to win this battle by ourselves. We won’t but we would be sure to give them a hell of a fight. For Nixon’s sake. I came here to show Blade my true colors. He will now see that he shouldn't be underestimating someone like me, especially when I am a rare diamond in the rough. I am the only shifter of this land. I was far from the weak shifter he met and almost killed the first time. My life experience taught me greater things about my strength and capabilities. No one came aside from us and that gave me a bitter taste in my mouth. I still couldn’t believe that the people of Moon Valley, whom

    Aria’s POV I was panting. I heard myself begging, pleading. But I couldn't get a hold of my words. They were drowning in the abyss of darkness. Hollowed and dreadful. I knew it was my voice. I sense the familiarity within its timbre and vibration.Inaudible it may seem, but slowly, it could be heard as I guessed about the words.Then, the things around me became clear. I could hear the rustling of the wind brushing against the leaves. The vast unfamiliar road was the first thing I saw. My dress glided with the wind. My hair followed suit.With this endless void, I saw his figure. The familiar figure which I yearned for so much.Nixon.Tears began to flow from my eyes.His back faced me. He was running. Running away from me.Why? Why would he run away from me?Didn't he suffer enough to be away from me? Didn't he wait for this day to come, to finally be with me?Then, why? Why is he running away from me?Frustratingly, I followed him. I ran and ran towards him."No. No, Nixon!" I shou

    Aria’s POV It was hard to believe what just happened. In a blink of an eye, the alpha, who was revered for defeating the infamous Death Eater, was now lying on the grounding and feasting in his humiliating defeat. In this continent, everyone knew who Adrian Patterson was. Everyone knew the story of how he triumphed over his tyrannical father. It would forever be engraved in our history. And yet, it was hard to imagine that the same, glorious man who became well-known throughout the continent was defeated just like that. What could possibly go wrong for him to lose in such an important battle like this? “Because he lost you, Aria. You broke our bond with him for the second time. His wolf weakened when you rejected him last night,” Cleo stated inside my head. I bit my lower lip upon hearing that. It made me remember the time when my mother went to the Royal Cave Bar and implored me to go back to Moon Valley to strengthen Adrian’s wolf before his battle with the Death Eater. At t

How dare he show his face to the pack he chose to fucking betray?I groaned in so much anger as I looked at him with eyes that were ready to kill. Among the council, he was one of those I trusted! But look at this mutt gathering his weaklings of companions, trying to instigate war!The veins on my neck and my temple were already bulging, and I could feel how my resentment slowly enveloped my heart. Just the sight of this traitor made me livid.“What the hell do you want?” I questioned him, furious.Simon scoffed and smirked before he spoke, “You, Alpha Adrian. I want nothing but to beat your ass and witness how you will lose everything.”My ears twitched the moment I heard that. There was also gasping that was heard around right after. It was an obvious challenge to my throne. Seeing his irking smirk, I knew he wanted to fight an

    Adrian's POVThere was an obvious fiasco in the meeting hall where we were gathered at that moment. Together with the councils, Aria was also present. We were currently discussing the aftermaths of Cassie’s schemes to Moon Valley. I could not deny that I was still very uncomfortable with her presence after what happened last night. I wanted to exclude myself from seeing her but this meeting only made me do what I didn’t want. How cruel fate was on me! I was bothered that she sat here with the council as if nothing pivotal happened a few hours ago. I mean, how could she act so naturally in front of everyone when she rejected me, her mate, coldheartedly last night? Groaning silently in my seat, I frowned.However, the more I saw how she was leading and speaking her ideas, the more I realized how deserving she was for the seat of Luna. Our council was right in choosing to believe in her. I could not deny that she was doing a great job. It was as if she was born to lead, a trait that c
