Jasmine Pov I moved into the forest hut today. They gave me one right across from where my parents gave their lives for me. Alpha John and Luna Leena were waiting there when I arrived. Luna Leena's smirk was all over her face. I could tell she was waiting for something. Most likely for me to break down. Alpha John had the same patient expression as if he too were waiting for something. They weren't gonna fucking get it. I went to this clearing yesterday with Sabrina, Lori, and Adam. I cried and cried. The pack members hadn't even tried to clean up the bloodstains. I just left them there as a reminder. I made a promise to my parents in the clearing that I would never let any of them break me, no matter what. As I did, I felt the wind stir and wrap around me as a comfort. I smiled as I felt the ghost of their arms around me. I knew they would never leave me. I intend to keep that promise. I smiled graciously at the Alpha and Luna and bowed as per our custom. I looked at the site with
Jasmine Pov The pain I had been putting up with these last few years was nothing compared to the pain I am feeling right now. My head feels like it's about to burst into two.“Jasmine, you must calm down. The more you resist me, the more painful it will be for both of us” a soothing voice said. I closed my eyes and tried to relax and concentrate on the voice of my wolf. I relaxed my body enough while doing so. “That's it. You are doing great. Let me take over”, She said, and I did. At once, the pain had ended. When I opened my eyes, I could feel another presence in my head. "Holy Shit," Sabrina said, looking into my eyes. "What?" I ask her. She doesn't reply, so I growl a little in annoyance and at one she and Lori are on the ground. What the fuck? "Get Up," I told them, grabbing Sabrina's arm and pulling it up. She looks at me wide-eyed."Why did you both drop? Are you okay? " I asked. "Your wolf is very powerful," Lori said. At once, I felt a burn in my stomach. I lifted my sh
Jasmine Pov On the day of my 18th birthday, I was told by Alpha Ned to clean up the packhouse. He was giving his son Oliver the throne and was inviting the most powerful Alphas around the world to come and visit. I did as he asked and prepared a huge feast. This task left me incredibly busy for the whole day while also trying to ignore the insults thrown at me from the pack, and I was tired after it. When I came back to my hut, there was a note on my bed.There was a note. Jasmine, I knew they would work you to death. My mom had a dress made for you. Come over so we can get dressed together. SabrinaI hadn't even considered going to the celebration, but I know it's wolf law that every wolf in the pack must attend, no matter their rank. I grabbed some underclothes and ran over to Sabrina's house. "About time, you do know the party starts in about an hour, right," Sabrina asks me. "Sorry, I had to cook all of the dinners that they would eat. I just got back", I told her. She throw
Oliver PovToday was supposed to be one of the best days of my life. I received my alpha title with Tia by my side. I planned on making her the Luna of the back and her twin sister would be with my beta ever since he was rejected by a pack member. Why she would reject him, I never know. I was used to females throwing themselves on me for my power. I had it. They wanted advantages. There was only one girl who never cared about it. Jasmine! Ever since we were younger, I had a feeling she would be my mate. Ever since we were kids, I have seen males trying to talk to her and it pissed me off. I had always felt like she was mine. I'm an alpha. I don't share my shit. She was so beautiful and so full of life. I always hid my feelings by bullying her so she wouldn't suspect anything. Once she turned 13, I felt a pull on her even stronger. Imagine my disappointment to find out she had no wolf. She was a simple human. Oh hell no. " She is still perfect " my wolf, Shane, growls in my head, bu
Xavier Pov As the new alpha of the Red Valley Pack gets indicted, all I can think of is how I don't sense my mate here. When they invited me to join them, I only accepted in hopes of finding my queen. My luna. The one who will stay by my side as rule as my equal. The one give been looking for longer than I care to admit. I look around and all I see are weak Alphas and their mates. Some unmated she-wolves are eyeing me, and they make me sick as I check their eyes, seeing there is no mating bond. I can feel some people are intimidated by me. Once they catch me staring at them, they look away. I don't blame them. I know with my tall height, jet black hair, and my silver eyes that see into people; I can be intense. After all, I am the most powerful man here. I am the Alpha King throughout the entire USA. All the Alphas of the USA report to my team at the palace, who in turn report to me. I had been searching for each state and every pack for years now, in hopes of finding my mate. Runn
Jasmine Pov I woke up and got dressed for my normal packhouse duties. I know I would be cooking extra for the visitors that are here. Thankfully, no one was in the kitchen when I arrived. I looked at the time and realized it was still early. While I was preparing the mix for waffles, I felt the presence of someone coming in behind me. I kept my head focused on the meal I was preparing. They ended up coming beside me. "Do you need any help with that?" The voice said. It was a voice I had never heard before. I looked up to see the most handsome man I had ever laid eyes on. I mean, Oliver was no doubt gorgeous, but this man was unbelievably handsome. He was 2 feet taller than me, with sleek short hair and olive-toned features, but what most compelled me was his grey eyes. They were mesmerizing, and I could get lost in them forever. His muscles were big and bulky, but they fit him. He was so handsome. I could feel Lunar looking at him questionably, but I didn't pay any attention. He en
Jasmine PovXavier's colleagues came and got him for some pack business which had just left me and Sabrina. We ended up going back to her house. Sabrina went to help her mom with some stuff while I went out to train with Adam. Sabrina and Lori could still see us. Adam and I started training for a while. Sabrina joined us. "You are getting better," Adam tells us. He is beaming at Sabrina as he does. " No thanks to you, old man," Sabrina says, and we all laugh. We all headed back inside and heard a knock on the door. Adam opens the door, and we see John, Leena, Darnell, and Oliver standing there. I felt terrified, as I had not seen any of them since I rejected Oliver. Oliver's face was directly on me. His eyes held anger, but he was smiling strangely. Not good. They push past Adam and just come in. Oliver then turns to Adam, who bows in respect." Adam, as alpha, I have to go over reports that come to my office, and one has recently come to mine," he says. He pauses and we wait for
Xavier PovWatching a member rip the head off Sabrina was sad, but only because of what she meant to my queen. She had been found guilty, but she wasn't. This whole trial was bullshit, but she knew something would happen to her. She somehow knew she would die. She made me promise her that whenever they did, that I would get both Jasmine and her parents away from this place. She promised me not to do anything to save her. Jasmine and her parents were the priority. Based on who she told me Jasmine was, she wouldn't be wrong. I must keep her safe at all costs. She is the one, after all, who I have been looking for. Sabrina's body dropped and it was silent. No one said a word. My eyes were trained on Jasmine. She had somehow broken free of her robes but had dropped to her knees on the spot. I started to walk to her and pull her up, but a wave of pure power rushed out of nowhere, causing me to stagger back and fall. Jasmine Pov Hell. Pure Hell. That's what my life has become ever since
Ava Pov (Three years Later)I was dead, and then I wasn't. I have walked the veil between life and death and came out of it, stronger and wiser. Three years ago, my life changed for what I thought was the worse, but ended up being for the better. I looked out of my bedroom window as the memories came back to me in flashes. (Three years ago)I was walking the veil between realms, waiting for my soul to be claimed until I felt a pence behind me. I turned around, and there stood my mother in her spirit form. Without waiting, I rushed to her and hugged her. Tears rolled down our faces as we finally united, and then I realized she was really here. I pulled back. "How are you here? I save you. Your spirit should be back with your body," I told her. She smiled. " My dear Ava, I died many years ago. I had been trapped by Lucifer in the devious of the plans. My time on earth is over, but you are still young, dear one. You will carry the promise of a better future for us. You are my light in
Atlas Pov A blast of energy rocked through all of us as Ava dropped to the ground in her sister's arms. Jasmine had killed Ava with my broken blade. Lucifer screamed and the entire realm rocked as his body exploded. The realm stopped shaking and the demons disintegrated, leaving no trace of them being here at all. "Is everyone okay", I heard someone say as I dropped to the ground, shifting back to full human form in my clothes."Where is Ava?" I heard Rynxyon yell. He would have felt her connection to him die. "Where is my daughter?" he yelled and entered the circle that was around her and Jasmine. "AVA", he growled in pain. He dropped to his knees, taking Ava away from Jasmine. "Wake up hunny. It's okay. It's over now. Wake up. Wake up princess, please. " he pleaded. He suddenly saw the blade in her chest and yanked it out of her. Blood poured out of her wound and gushed on him and he covered it with his hand. "It's a light wound. Come on." He said through tears. He started pumpi
Atlas PovI felt a snap in the mate bond as we prepared formation. Samael linked me they were coming. Apparently, they had been trapped by Lucifer, used as bait to lure Ava to him. It was like a dagger to my heart and ripped through me like a knife. She was no longer mine, and with that, the need to save her went away as well. It was replaced by a fire. The burning need to end her once and for all, and for the first time in a while, Kai and I felt like one. "Ava", Kai and I growled. We were merging together. "I will fucking kill you today", I told her, and I meant every word of it. I could finally see the threat that everyone kept trying to warn me about, yet I wouldn't listen to them. She looked at me, with her black demon eyes that seemed to see right through me and tilted her head slightly. "Good luck", she said to me before rising into the air. She raised her hands and a blast of purple energy shot from her hands, englufling me and my entire side before fading away. Nothing happ
Ava Pov I portaled myself down to hell. I was not sure how I instantly came here without making a portal. As the minutes went down to my birthday, I could sense a change in me. I ended up in the middle of the hell realm near the pit of tortured souls. Their cries to free them were endless, but their pain meant nothing to me right now. My own pain was loud and screaming in my own ears. Atlas. After all we had been through. He did not want me anymore. I dropped to my knees. "Why", I cried out into the darkness, but received nothing but the response of screams from the dead. Atlas. My light. I started hyperventilating. He....he didn't want me. My family hated me. As they should. It was my fault. Everything was all my fault. My mother died because of a prophecy about me, and was forced to sell her soul to Lucifer. My father lost his second mate because of me. Ana lost her life because of me. Brandon became a slave to Ana because of me. Atlas lost his mother to my sister because of my ma
Samael Pov (Two days ago when Ava was captured)"Ava will never forgive us for that" Rynyxon had said as we prepared to enter the realm of hell. As before, we shared blood with everyone who was to enter the realm with us, since it was known that those without demon blood could not enter the realm. "We are protecting her. The prophecy for her fate will happen in two days, and our only option is killing Lucifer. End him. We will save Ava." I told him. " She is halfway under his control. Killing Lucifer will free her", Jasmine said to her father, fixing the demon killing blade in my belt. "I am aware of what we need to do, but to trust a demon. My own apparent evil fucking daughter. " Rynxyon sighed. Jasmine hugged him to comfort him. "She is not your daughter anymore. She is a demon, dad. After all she took from us, regardless of any pack we made with her, she will not live to see the end of this war.", Jasmine said to him, looking him in the eye. He nodded. " It's time", Jessica l
Atlas Pov My mate was caged like an animal while I was forced to finish plans for the coming war. Uncle Ellis and I went over battle formations while father spent his time with mom, who, as the hours went by, was making a swift recovery. My heart ached for my mate, and the beast inside me craved her blood and mateship. I hated the fact that he was under the command of Typhon, who wanted nothing more but the death of our mate. " I am sorry, Atlas", Kai spoke to me. "Yea", I told him, before closing the link. It was the first time ever that we had ever been at odds with each other, and it felt as if my animal self had betrayed me. It was not his fault, but it still hurt. I could not bear to even speak with him. I wanted to go see Ava as well, but knowing Kai would lash out the moment I did, made me refrain from it. I felt as even if I dream walked, I would put her in danger. She must hate me right now. I tried channeling her through our mate link, but I felt nothing. It was like she
Ava Pov "Let me go", I told Lucifer, who still had his arm wrapped around me as we landed back in his throne room. I both hated and loved his arm around me. Well, the darkness loved it, and since I felt consumed by much of it,a big part of me liked it. "As you wish, mate", he said in his usual calm voice. For some reason, it didn't creep me out like usual. "How did you get to earth?" I demanded to know. "You called for me" he simply said, sitting down on his throne. "I didn't call you. I had it." I told him. He laughed. "If that was the case angel witch, I would have been able to even cross onto the earth. A part of you felt fear when they were about to attack you. You broke the block that allowed me to siphon off your power and called for me, " he said to me. I shook my head. I couldn't remember, until I did. I closed my eyes and took myself back to when it happened. I had a paranoid fear that I was going to die when Micheal set his angels on me. I closed my eyes and asked for
Jasmine Pov "What the fuck?" I said aloud. Micheal had released us from his power and anger was my first reaction. "We came to try to talk some sense into Ava, and not only is her own fucking mate trying to kill her, angels are too. Are you out of your fucking mind", I growled to Micheal and Atlas. I knew it was disrespectful, but the thought of them taking Ava's life sickened me. "Watch who your speaking to, halfling." Micheal warned me, but I did not care. I was furious. "No, you fucking watch it. That is my sister. She is not in the right state of mind right now, and needs her family to help her. You come in swinging trying to kill her? What the fuck is wrong with you?", I demanded to know. Lunar was merging with me and the demon part of us wanted them to suffer, but I kept that part at bay. "That thing is no longer your sister." he sneered to me. "Neither your mate", he said to Atlas, who was now back in human form and was furious. "Neither your daughter", he said to dad. "She
Rynyxon PovMy Princess was hurt. I can't deny that it is possible she could have helped her mother, but Lucifer took control of my mate and tried to use her to get to Ava. Keeping the truth from her was my way of protecting her. Keeping her safe, for as long as I could. That was the job of a father. To protect his family, at all cost. "Why did you tell her?" Samael asked, after I explained everything to everyone who didn't know. "She said she dreamwalked into Lucifer's realm. He put the thought in her mind not to trust me. She knew I was not being honest when she asked me, so she took over my mind and searched my memories. I could not stop her. "Fuck"!, Samael growled out. "So what now? Where is she?", Jasmine asked. "My guess is Draconis. All her life, she has longed for her mother, only to realize the lie we have kept from her. That, plus the darkness we have seen latched inside of her, is driving her mad." I explained. "Lucifer must have done something to her when we were ca
