Days passed and Ama was still caught up in her guilt. She tried her best not to make Styx notice her sudden change and she was doing a good job at that. She made sure to ignore Sophia's questioning gaze and tried to act like she used to. She made sure to hide her guilt deep in her heart, that was the only way she could forget about everything and that was the only way she could stop herself from losing her mind. And that was the only way she could think of to stop herself from doing the unthinkable...kill herself.She walked through the corridor, used to the silent surrounding her. She stopped walking, noticing the painting that was placed on the wall. Curious, she walked towards the painting, staring at it.It was a painting of her and Styx. A painting he had ordered to be taken a few days after their marriage. She stretched out her hand towards the painting, caressing it. She felt a sharp pain in her heart and once again what happened in the forest flashed through her mind. Fear o
Few days passed but to Ama it still felt like yesterday. She felt like she was going to lose him but then...he held her hand at her weakest point and promised to stay by her side and he was doing just that. He didn't only accept her despite her flaws but he also accepted her illegitimate child.She walked through the garden, enjoying the breeze. She was all alone in the palace, Carina had gone for some work she had no idea off, Madeline went to a soiree and Styx had gone for a meeting while as for Sophia, she had no idea where she had disappeared too and she was too lazy to care."I'm sorry but I can't allow you to go in," a guard said, drawing Ama's attention.Curious, she walked towards the palace gate to see who he was speaking with."But I need to see her...""Lyla!" Ama called."Ama!" Lyla yelled, running past the guard. She pulled her sister into a hug, tightly hugging her. Her eyes were welled up with tears and it felt like she was close to breaking down."Lyla..." Ama whimpere
Two days laterAma slowly opened her eyes, forcing her eyes open. She sat up, gazing through the forest. She was lost and she had no idea where she was.She stood up and immediately she did, memories flashed through her eyes, memories that weren't hers but her mother's.She almost stumbled, seeing the last memories she has of her mother. Her mother had given her her powers and also... she killed them.She killed them all... She killed Samuel, Madeline and her family and also Lyla and father. Ama covered her mouth in shock, her eyes were void and she was lost. She had been living with her mother for years but never...never would she have thought her mother wasn't human. She had never seen her doing anything strange and this... everything was driving her crazy."Ama," Carina called with a broken voice. She stood not too far away from Ama. Her eyes were cold and void. "Carina," Ama took a step forward but stopped. A memory of how her mother had killed Samuel flashed across her eyes. C
She stood in front of the gate, her eyes welled up with tears. She turned around, gazing at the stars and the moon for the last time. This would be the end of it all and after this she would be gone.She pushed the gates open, taking a step forward followed by another. She could feel a kind of heaviness in her chest, one she would stop feeling after it all ended.The palace was empty and she felt it must be because of Madeline's death. A death according to them, she caused.Ama closed her eyes to stop the tears in her eyes from falling. She can't cry, this wasn't the time for her to cry.She entered the castle, walking through the silent corridor. Her mind was in chaos and she was trying her best not to break down. What she was more afraid of than death was seeing the hatred in Styx's eyes for her.She stopped walking, noticing the painting that was still on the wall. She felt her heart break into pieces, walking slowly towards the painting. With shaky hands and uneven breath, she st
"Mother!""You have to go to the ball, Vivian. Your father wants you to find a suitor and get married," said Zara, rolling her eyes at her daughter's childish behavior. "But I don't want to," Vivian pouted, holding her mother's leg. "You don't want to go to the ball or you don't want to get married?" Zara asked, tying a red thread around Vivian's wrist. Because of her unfilial daughter, she had visited lots of shamans, hoping she could see how her daughter's future would look like. They had told her that she would have a happy and worry free life ahead of her. One had even told her she would get married to her destined husband. But it's been years now and her daughter is still unmarried."Both," she cried. All she wanted was just to leave a free life where she won't have to be bound to a man that would turn her into a slave and mistreat her. She was still young and she still has a long life ahead of her, so why is her father so keen on her getting married."Where did I go wrong with
"Ahh!" Vivian yelled, picking up her clothes and covering her body."You pervert!" She yelled, stepping on his toes. "You were eager to get rid of your dress," Styx smiled, his eyes still on her body. Something about her was driving him to her and he felt crazy for her. "You should have looked away," Vivian glared at the man in front of her. If it wasn't because he was handsome, she would have scratched his face and taught him a lesson but she couldn't bear to damage his handsome face.Styx smirked, walking closer to her. He placed his hand on her face, gently caressing it. He wrapped his arms around her waist with his other hand and whispered softly in her ear; "How much should I pay you for me to have you right here?" "You psycho!" Vivian gasped, trying to wriggle her body out of his arms but he was much stronger than her. She was the Alpha's daughter but still one of the weakest wolves in the pack. She was certain that if she wasn't the Alpha's daughter then she would have been
"Who is he?" Vivian asked, fuming with anger. She was eager to know the fool that rejected her sister. "I'm not telling you," Lyla pouted, with a smile on her face. A smile that didn't reach her eyes. She was happy... extremely happy when she found out that he was his mate. She has been attracted to him for a while now and it was funny how she didn't know he was his mate. She was caught up in her fantasy and didn't really pay attention to that. And when she finally found out, she thought he would accept her but then...he didn't. He rejected her without even asking for her opinion and that...hurts.Vivian pouted her lips childishly, she was eager to know the werewolf that rejected Lyla. But she knows it would be difficult to get Lyla to tell her. "So..." Lyla paused, focusing all her attention on Vivian. "You won't still tell me who the person is? " Somehow she couldn't help but believe that the person Vivian is attracted to wasn't from their pack and that made her more curious to fi
"Vivian!" Zarayelled, barging into Vivian's room. She had gone for a meeting the other evening and had completely forgotten about her daughter but now that she remembers, she wasn't going to allow her to go scot-free."Mother," Vivian whispered, pulling the duvet to cover her head. She was hoping her mother would allow her to have enough sleep and talk to her later in the day but it seems she was wrong."The groom?" She asked, standing close to her daughter's bed. She shook her head at her daughter's laziness, others were awake by now but her daughter was still asleep at this hour of the day. "What groom?" she retorted. That was the best response she could think of and thinking about it. She should have run off the other night, maybe sneaked into Lyla's home then she could have been saved from her mother's wrath. But she never thought of that, she was too busy thinking of the man she had met back at the ball.'It's all his fault!' she mused, biting her lips."You want me to answer tha
