2021-04-21 10:21:51Amanda drove out of the territory, heading to one place that she might have the answer to the things that happened lately. She didn’t want to waste more time just in case her suspicion was true. She feared that Mira was already resurrected which answered why Cohen’s mating bond was reconstructed. If Mira was actually resurrected, the balance of the world would fall.
After driving nearly two hours, she stopped at a horse ranch and wheat farm. There, a two storey wooden house was located. A woman was working outside the barn, raking some dried grasses outside of it. Amanda came out of her car and looked at the woman. The woman turned at her before approaching her.
“What are you doing here?” the woman asked.
“I need to know something,” Amanda replied.
The woman’s expression changed. “I don’t know anything.”
She quickly left. Amanda chased after her and said, “Matilda, you know something

Daemon was different from a demon or the demon wolf. Daemon was known as a godlike deity. They had power incomparable to any other creatures ever walked on Earth. It was said that daemons were the first creature to walk on Earth before anything else. That made them the world’s oldest species. However, there was no confirmation they ever existed. People passed down stories like that. Just like how the stories of demon wolf happened. If a demon wolf could exist through a myth, then daemon could too.And according to the legend, a daemon was the only powerful creature that could use the resurrection spell without causing a catastrophic event.“Should we be happy that Mira was resurrected or should we fear what this—” Vincent trailed off, “— daemon could do to her?”A question t

Stefano left the bedroom so that the maids could attend to her while he had to discuss a few things with Clavier, away from prying eyes and listening ears. The two men entered the study room which contained books and scrolls older than Stefano himself. Everything in this room was the work of his family. Each had their own meaning and value. Stefano had safeguarded this study room for as long he could remember. Not a single person in this castle could enter the study room without his permission. As long as he was breathing, this room would remain guarded by his power. These books and scrolls held so much important and priceless knowledge. If they fell into the wrong hands, there would be a big mess to clean. And he hated cleaning a mess.“I’m not saying I’m against or going along with your plan,” Clavier began, taking out a cigar and lit it up. “But you’ve seen in her eye

The maids left his bedroom, leaving him and Adeline alone. She was wearing a white dress with golden stripes. Her red hair was braided beautifully behind her back. The color of her eyes was so enchanting as if he could just drown in them. He never saw such a captivating pair of eyes. It was an electric blue color. Stefano felt like he was staring into a pair of eyes with lightning trapped in them.“You look enchanting, my love.” He complimented her, trying to see her reaction.Adeline spun around to meet his warm gaze. There was no sign of recognition inside her eyes just yet. As he said before, he had to plan his steps carefully. No rush. They had an eternity to figure this out. Better started slowly than risk losing her sanity.“My love?” Her tone was unsure of the nickname.

After so much contemplation for the past hour and listening to his mother’s cries, Cohen gathered whatever was left of him to do the right things. His pain wouldn’t fade away. It would just pass down to those close to him. In this case, his mother. He had enough listening to his mother’s sobbing. He knew she was hurt seeing him this way. But what else could he do? If the past nine months couldn’t make him stop mourning, why would this short time stop him from mourning?Cohen got up from the bed and headed to the bathroom. He stared at his own reflection in the mirror and noticed how much his appearance had changed over the past nine months. He looked a lot older than his actual age and had lost a lot of weight too.Picking up the shaving cream, he applied some on his jaw and ready to shave his beard. Not too much though. Just shortened i

Vincent stared at the Alpha, stunned. Ophelia Jade? One of the current Councilors of the Werewolf Council? But Ophelia wasn’t married or mated. Some said her mate rejected her. Some said she just hadn’t found him. Or did she lie to cover up something?“Her ex-husband —” Cohen paused, trying to find the right term. “Anyway, Ophelia was married once to a man who had this crest.”“Okay, so he’s the guy that Mira warned me about. Or could be someone from his family.”“When I was fighting in an illegal ring a few months ago, I saw a man with this crest but he wasn’t Ophelia’s ex-husband. He was running the largest illegal rings and sex trafficking business across Europe.”“Did he recogni

Their right arms aligned with their shoulders and her back was rested against his chest as they danced to the music in the middle of the room. Stefano placed his left hand on her hip before he started moving and she made her movement correspond to his.He stretched their right arms upward before Adeline spun three times. Then, her back was on his chest again.“You are always a very good dancer, my love,” Stefano whispered next to her ear.His cold breath and lips touched her skin, sending shivers to her body. She didn’t want to welcome his touch but at the same time, she welcomed it. There were too many conflicts in her mind.“I have a very good teacher, I assumed.” She replied, leaning her head to the other direction when he leaned to kiss

Stefano stood there in the darkness watching her. Adeline was in a deep sleep with the moonlight shone to her porcelain skin. Her head was whipped from left to right and back and forth as if she was having another nightmare.Few things began to rise in the air in the room. It didn’t surprise him at all. From the moment he resurrected her from the grave, he knew something was definitely different in her. Something stronger than he had ever seen in his thousands of years of life.He made his way to her side and put his cold hand on her sweaty forehead — seizing the nightmare from her mind.“Show me what you truly are, my love,” he whispered before he loomed his lips near hers.

Two hours into the celebration, everyone was having a good time. Mira spotted Amanda stealing glances at Vincent a few times. She realized the former couple had yet to reconcile. Now and then, they would steal glances at each other. Vincent was busy talking and laughing to some single female pack members. He looked like he was having a good time while Amanda looked like she was about to commit homicide.“Oh, get over it!” Mira groaned as she was annoyed by Amanda’s stealing glances. “Just go there and talk to him.”“He hates my guts. I swear it; he hates me,” Amanda said, trying hard not to look at Vincent.“Can I steal her for a moment?” Cohen asked Amanda.“Sure, Mister Happily Ever After,” Amanda replie

Mira stood by the full-length mirror, looking at her own reflection as she continued to fix her hair. It had been an hour since she stood there, fixing whatever she felt needed some fixing. Tonight was Cohen’s thirty-fifth birthday celebration. He was officially old and grumpy at everyone who agreed to do the celebration. He told them that he didn’t need to be reminded that he was an older man now, but everyone insisted that he would have a good time during the celebration.Believe it or not, Mira was intended to make it a good time for her mate.

In her demon wolf’s realm, Mira was forced to exit to another part of its realm. There, she saw the same gates that Amanda put up to control Mira’s bad memories from affecting her deeply. Now, the gates were opened. She wondered what would happen if she walked past the broken gate. Her demon wolf was too busy causing suffering to others.

Cohen looked out the window of his office and noticed the sky was changing color slowly. In a few minutes, the sun would start to take over the moon slowly. His heart became restless as he was nowhere close. No matter how hard he didn’t want to think about being late to save her, he couldn’t ignore it. Last time, he was late saving her. He didn’t want to be late this time, but he had no clues about finding her.For the first time, Cohen felt useless. All those years and knowledge couldn’t help him find the one person he needed to find.The office door was slammed open, and Liam walked in as he breathed heavily.
