Maisey paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, his eyes darting from one member of the Revolutionary to the other. Kika sat on the edge of the table, her fingers drumming against the hard surface as she stared at the floor. Flow leaned against the wall, his arms crossed over his chest as he watched the others. Radiant was the only one who seemed calm, her eyes closed as she took deep breaths."We have lost Maika," Maisey said, his voice thick with frustration. They’ve been planning this takeover since they were young witches in training and even years after and multiple lives lost, it doesn’t seem like they are close to winning or anything. "We cannot afford to lose anyone else. We need to act fast and take down Rosella before it's too late." Maisey continued. They can’t afford to lose any hope right now, especially when the future doesn’t seem so bright anymore. He wasn’t going to let his fears show on his face, so the rest of his friends don’t lose hope. Kika looked up at him
As Susu watched Rosella from a hidden corner of the palace, a sinister smile curled on her lips. She had devised a plan to unsettle Rosella's powers, to manipulate them in a way that would make her go out of control. Susu's heart pounded with excitement, knowing that she was about to sow chaos within the pack.Using her own dark magic, Susu began to send waves of energy towards Rosella, subtly disrupting the balance within her. She could feel the power pulsating through her veins, a malicious force seeking to unleash itself upon the unsuspecting pack.At first, the effects were subtle. Rosella's usually calm and composed demeanor started to waver, her movements becoming more erratic. Susu watched with delight as Rosella struggled to control her powers, her usual grace now replaced with uncertainty.Julian noticed the change in Rosella immediately. His eyes widened with concern as he saw the flicker of darkness that danced within her eyes. He reached out to her, trying to steady her, b
As Julian stared at Rosella, he wondered if she was really back to her normal self. Had the herb actually worked? It was too early to tell but he couldn't help the flicker of hope in his heart. Maybe for once, all of this madness was over. Rosella quelled his doubts the next minute with a gentle smile and she placed her cold hands on his lap. She knew what he was thinking, it's hard for him not to spiral down that road especially when this same scene has replayed many times right before their eyes. "Believe me, my love," Rosella smiled at him, hoping it puts him at ease and makes him believe her. "I'm perfectly okay now."Julian stared at his wife for a few seconds and finally, he hugged her. She could feel the relief rolling through him in waves and she closed her eyes before letting herself breathe in his scent. She had missed this, missed him. "I don't want to lose you, Rosella," he said. "I promise you that we would get to the bottom of this together. We would find whoever it
Maisey's fingers drummed steadily on the table as he stared at the old clock that hung on the wall. It was well past 9 pm and their meeting that was scheduled for 8 pm had not yet begun. They were waiting for the last person. "Can we just get on with something," Kika sighed. "Do we have to wait for her every single time?” She wa stunning out of patience and she’s rather be sleeping than staying up waiting for someone to show up when she feels like. Maisey remained silent, his dark and foreboding eyes watching every corner of the dark cavern, waiting for the first glimpse of just her shadow. They were all waiting for Susu, and they were running out of patience as time went by.Maisey was doing his very best to not let his intrusive thoughts win and he definitely didn’t want to think of Susu in that light so he was going to do what every other normal person would have done, wait for her and give her the benefit of doubt. After tonight, he would warn her about coming late like she was
Maisey watched as Susu walked away from the cavern. His mind was racing and his thoughts were very much disoriented. He knew that she had a plan, an evil one, but there was no way he was getting it out of her. She was just too smart for him.He ran his fingers through his hair as he pondered upon his next line of action. If Susu actually double crossed him in the palace, there was no way he was going to come out alive. Julian's wolves would surely overpower him and tear him to pieces. He had to think of a backup plan. Especially since everything that was happening in that damned palace were kept vague to the rest of them by Susu. As his thoughts ran wild, he heard the sound of footsteps stealthily approaching and he stopped to listen. He knew who it was -Maika. She had a knack for good deeds and as much as Maisey had tried to incorporate her into the revolution, he knew she still had a good heart. He was going to give her time to adjust, then make a decision between killing her off o
Maika walked in and that was when their whole plan clicked in her head. She had walked right into their plot and now she had no proof if they were even saying the truth. Yet she let herself be walked into whatever trap they were setting for her. "Fucking cowards!" She cursed out, blaming herself for letting them fool her. "If you are as strong as you claim to be, come out and let us fight in the open!""Finish with your mother first!" The faint reply came from outside making Maika jump in fear, she wasn’t expecting them to hear her after the door was locked nor give her a reply. "Hopefully, you'll be ours to kill thereafter." The guard added after a dramatic pause and Maika scoffed and groped around, trying to find her way in the dark hall. Not a single ray of light was in the room.She spread her palms out and she could feel another presence in the room. She wasn’t alone and she had a faint idea who the other person was. "Damn you, Sage!" Maika grunted after waiting for some tim
Rosella sat up on her bed at the sound of the voice."Who are you?" She asked. "I don't have your powers. Please let me be."Rosella felt a sharp pain in her stomach and she screamed in pain. The guard watching over her rushed to her side to check up on her."Are you okay, my Queen?" He asked.Rosella did not reply. Her eyes were shut tight and her hands, clasped over her stomach."My Queen!"The guard turned around and ran to get help while Rosella screamed in pain on the bed. A few minutes later, he was back with two more guards and a doctor."She started screaming all of a sudden," the guard explained.The doctor assessed Rosella for a minute and he frowned. "It could be that the baby is on its way. Anything other than that would be very bad news. Take her and follow me."The guard hunched Rosella up on his shoulders and walked behind the doctor, all the way to the pack hospital.He dropped Rosella on a bed and watched as the doctor injected her with a substance."That would calm
As soon as he was out of the hospital, Alpha Julian shifted into his wolf and barreled down the road.His eyes were blood red with anger. Someone had betrayed him, not just anyone, but his most trusted guard, and now he was going to make the bastard pay.He stopped at the door of the throne room and shifted back to his human form. Pushing the grand doors, he walked in and spun around."Alex!" He growled. "Show yourself at once."The other guards in the throne room stared at him, surprised. They were probably wondering why he was calling out the chief guard but no one dared to say a word."Alex!" Alpha Julian growled again. There was still no answer and so he turned around and headed towards his room.He pushed the door open and walked in. Alex stood at alert at the sight of the Alpha and he bowed quickly."My King," Alex bowed. "Is she out of danger?""You ask me that?" Alpha Julian growled. "You betray me and still dare to ask me if she is out of danger?""I would never betray you, m
