Marcus’s POV

I stood up from the bed and my mind was already a mess. How could she? Does she know the implications of her actions if caught?

Was it because I confessed? What the hell was going on in that mind of hers?

A mix of anger and hurt coursed through my heart. I never imagined I would ever love someone this much, but I did and I guess I'm bearing the consequences of loving.

Maybe I should not have listened to Winston. I should have kept my feelings to myself. Confessing only seemed to have made things worse.

I carefully scanned the room and noticed the windows were open, the curtains had been strongly tied to the bedpost and let down out of the window.

Looking down, her window gave a beautiful view of the garden and just as I was about to shut the window, realization dawned on me - there was only one place I was sure she could’ve gone.

Grayson!

I stormed out of the room and made my way straight to the garden. I just hope he didn't let her go away. I would never forgive him. I h

    Marcus’s POV“What are you waiting for?” Smithson teased.He was good at turning my rage on, and if a fight was what he wanted I was surely going to give it to him.“Come on, Marcus, I'm right here” He taunted.“I do not have the time for all these, Smithson. So just hurry and answer the damn question.” I barked.“But if I do not, what are going to do?” He smirked.I ignored his question and let my eyes sweep over the environment. From where we stood, there was a good view of the village. I noticed the black lotion beside where Smithson stood and for reasons I could barely explain, I felt an indescribable anger in my heart.”You asked for it and I was just going to do just that. I promise you I am only going to give you what you deserve.” With that I growled and howled as I aimed directly at him, I didn't see what was coming next.Smithson and all of his men were fully transformed, I was surrounded by them. I didn't have the time to be calculative, I began to pounce on each wolf that

    Shawn’s POV “What the hell boy?” Shadowvale yelled. I had just recovered from the sudden attack on my mind, but here he was about to put me back in there. He lowered his rifle and walked in my direction. “I… I… I did not mean to,” I stammered as he got closer to where I crouched. The closer he came towards me, the more I crawled backward in the dirt. “I am sure you did not mean to be a boy, but this is your last warning. Miss my game again and you will regret not dying the first day I met you,” All the while, he was wearing a sinister smile as he kept approaching me till he made sure I was afraid. As he finished speaking, my heart had already accelerated far beyond its normal rate and my eyes felt like they were surely going to fall off. Seeing his desired reaction from me, Shadowvale laughed like the maniac he was and stormed off, leaving me on the cold ground. As he walked away, anger bubbled inside me and my fists were turning white from the pressure I had put on it. I

    Shawn's POV I needed to thread this with wisdom, to make the right decision. I looked at Shadowvale's face, his expressions were unreadable, but his brown eyes were obviously very cold and held a dark energy in them.I looked over at the members of his pack and they all bore resentment on their faces, they looked like they would rip me apart if I made the wrong choice.But which choice is wrong?“Well, you are an amazing and great leader, so how can I, who is barely experienced, dare to fight with you?” I asked, faking a quivering tone as I spoke.“I'm glad that you know your place,” He said and spat on the ground. “As for taking Luca's place, you will have to prove that without your little tricks, you can survive what that position entails.”This was a fair deal, so I nodded. “Okay, what shall I do?”“Every morning for the next seven days, you will be tasked with bringing us fresh meat for breakfast. It better be big and fleshy.” Shadowvale instructed and walked back into his tent.

    Marcus's POV “Master Marcus, I did not mean to anger you. I went into her room but was not allowed because she had a flu,” Winston was clinging to the cell room iron bars and pleading for himself but I was already too agitated to hearken unto his pleas. “Please Master Marcus,” He pleaded again. I frowned and raised my hands and the guard behind me hurried to open the room for him. “Find out who started the rumor that she had caught the flu and bring the person to me, or you will go back into where you're just coming out from,” I said coldly and left. As I walked out, I could see his hurt expression and I also saw his lips move slowly. I sighed and walked away. I went back to my wing got into my chambers and laid on my bed. It had been a long and painful day. A day I will forever not forget. The day I was the most silly. Loving Lily has taught me the good and the bad. More of the bad though than the good. I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes to sleep. Closing my ey

With my curiosity piqued.I made my way closer, my footsteps echoing against the polished marble floors. And there, amidst a small crowd, I saw a chef, clad in his pristine white uniform, being flogged.I frowned. I sought out one of the nearby maids, her eyes wide with fear, her hands trembling as she wrung the edges of her apron."What's happening here?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, as if afraid to disturb the grim tableau unfolding before me.The maid glanced at me, her expression a mix of apprehension and resignation. "It's Master Marcus," she whispered back, her voice barely audible over the din. "He ordered the chef to be flogged."I felt a cold shiv

    Leila’s POVI walked out of Marcus's room feeling excited about what was about to come. If he was back to being cold towards his servants, then that could only mean that I was close to achieving my goal.All I had to do now was put on a nice act and win everyone's heart. I smiled sinisterly at my thoughts.I arrived at the balcony overlooking the banquet hall and looked in the opposite direction. The other side of the hallway led down to that little witch's room.I walked in that direction without giving much thought to it. I arrived at her door and there were guards stationed there.So much trouble for just the flu.I immediately put on my act and approached the guards.“Miss Leila,” They greeted with a curt bow.“Hmmm,” I replied to their greeting. My blue eyes were moistened well enough but no tears fell. “How is she?”“She is sick.” One of the guards replied.“Can I see her?” I asked, wearing a pitiful look.“I'm sorry, but there have been strict restrictions against her visitors

I wondered what her act was for.No matter what she did, I would never never marry her.“Who's there?” I called out to the guards at the door.The door creaked open and the two guards standing there stepped in.“Master Marcus,” They both greeted.“Make sure no one except for Winston passes through that door,” I instructed firmly.“Understood, Master Marcus.” They responded and made to leave but I called them back.“If anyone except Winston passes through that door, it's your head that will be my next meal. My voice was laced with much contempt and hatred as I spoke and the only person on my mind at that moment was Leila and of course, her Father, Lord Darkwood. Those two were worse than thorns in the flesh.The guards bowed and left.Once I was certain the guards were outside

All I wanted the most in the world at that moment, was to be reunited with Lily.I hurried to her room but she wasn't there and things looked almost exactly like the way it was the last time I was here.I ran out to my own room, but she was not there either. “Please Lily, come out wherever you are hiding,” I cried.I rose up and searched the halls, the potion room, the council chambers, I searched the kitchen and the dining halls, but she was nowhere to be found.I now stood in front of my parent's room, the last and the only unchecked room in our mansion.I exhaled heavily and dried my tears. She had to be inside here. I

Marcus was about to be crowned King of the Wolves.“If you need anything tell me okay,” Clara said as she checked where I was wounded."Hmm, thank you, Clara,” I replied.Thanks to Lucas, I got more preferential treatment from Clara.The hall was filled with members from the four packs. The Twilight Ridge werewolves, led by Marcus, and Luna Crest led by a little girl who I barely knew. The Silvershade pack is led by me and the Bloodmoon pack is led by Shadowvale.Finally, all the pain, struggles, and fighting have been put behind us.

I was only trying to bridge the gap since she's out with Clara," He replied.“You should do that as your chubby self, rather than mimic your queen," I replied, faking anger.“Fine, I'll shut the door after me and send word to have her come back,” He replied, also feigning vexation.“Silly man," I said and we both laughed.By noon, we were all complete for lunch. It was beautiful to have the mansion this lively.“Mother, Aunt Clara taught me how to create w

    Lily's POVDamn! I have been such a fool.I ran without considering where I was going. The pain was just too much to bear. I had pushed Marcus away despite my growing attraction to him because I also blamed him for everyone's death.But he was the one only trying to clean up his father's mess. “Arrggh!" I yelled into the sky.I don't know how or why, but it started to rain. The rain started as a drizzle, but it quickly turned into a downpour. I stayed in the rain and cried.Each step I took splashed through the forming puddles, and the cold rain soaked me to the bone. I barely noticed.“Lily, wait!” Marcus’s voice called out behind me. I didn’t stop. I couldn’t face him, not after everything I’d done.The memories of our past and the hurt I must have caused him played in my mind. I kept walking, but Marcus caught up to me, grabbing my arm and spinning me around to face him.“Lily, please, talk to me,” he said, his voice filled with concern and desperation.I yanked my arm free, the a

The air crackled with energy, the barrier shimmering under our powers. But it held firm, refusing to yield.Leila watched us, her smile never faltering. “You can’t win, Marcus. This is my game now.”But I refused to accept that. I dug deep, summoning every ounce of strength and determination I had. I thought of Lily, of Raymond and Fiona. I couldn’t fail them.With a final, desperate effort, we pushed against the barrier. There was a blinding flash of light, and suddenly, the barrier shattered, sending us tumbling forward.I scrambled to my feet, my eyes l

    Marcus’s POVMy journey back to Mistwood Creek felt longer than I expected it. As I arrived at the villages, the clamor of battle was deafening.I noticed the full moon's glow on my skin and despite it being dark, I could spot all my runes. My fangs were out and so were my claws.I felt energy surge through me and my senses heightened. The tangy smell of blood and dust filled the air and I could make out the faint smell of cedarwood and flowers.I took out the vial and gulped everything down in one go, before proceeding in the direction of the mansion.I was going to find Lily and my kids no matter what.Arriving at the first gate to the mansion, I noticed Shadowvale and his men transformed back to their human form and whatever was left of my knights hurried behind me.“I told you Marcus, I would be back," Shadowvale said with a cold sneer."And I think you should be on your way out right about now,” I replied coldly.Shadowvale laughed and his men joined him.

    Shawn's POVMartin and I finally made our way out of the village just as the sun was about to set. The sky was colored with hues of orange and purple, and I could see the moon beginning to emerge, just as I was feeling my wolf gradually taking over me.As we passed through some parts of the village, I noticed some doors hung off their hinges, and debris littered the ground. Villagers with fearful expressions hurried past us, whispering frantically among themselves.“What happened here?” Martin asked, his voice hushed as we took in the scene.“Shadowvale,” I muttered, my jaw clenched. “He must have been here.”Martin's eyes widened. “We need to move quickly, Shawn. He was not supposed to attack the villagers.”“It's the full moon’s effect," I replied blankly. “Let's hurry up to him nonetheless,"The further we went, the more signs of destruction we saw. It was clear that Shadowvale had left his mark, and the villagers had suffered for it.“Damn him,” I cursed under my breath, fury boil

Lucas had proven to be so much of a headache.He was supposed to be an easy nut to crack, but he proved himself to be smarter than I made him to be.I had gotten Lily back and left instructions with the dark sorcerers of Luna Crest to make sure that Lucas didn't see the light of day.As I approached the townhouse, I saw Maureen waiting for me at the entrance, her face was pale and lacked any form of the usual excitement."Sister," she called out, in a flat and emotionless voice. “We need to hurry,” She said with a tone of indifference.I knew that who would still be feeling offended about Smithson's death, but there was nothing I was going to do about it.“Why is that?" I asked as we made our way inside the house.“There have been some little disruptions in the lower parts of the village and it was only a matter of time before the full attack began,” She replied coldly.I knew what that implied

    Lucas's POV Looking at Leila's retreating back left me writhing in anger at her audacity in turning back on her words. I should have known better anyway, once an evil witch, always a wicked witch. I looked away from Leila and her flowing black veil and rested my eyes on the helpless Lily being carried away by the men who were with Leila. "Make sure she is not conscious," Leila instructed them. "The kids?" One asked. "Leave them as they are. Lucas already did that," She replied and turned to face me. Her dark men who surrounded me seemed to be there to restrict me from doing anything reckless, rather than execute me from the plan. "What happened to your integrity, Leila Darkwood," I asked her angrily. "I don't have one, Lucas Hawthorne," She replied with a sinister smile. "I actually don't have all day to spend here chit-chatting with you, so I will go ahead with my question," She knows who the hell I am. I searched her as she spoke and gauged the strength of the men

"How is my father?"Really?"Stop playing games with me," I snapped, taking a step closer. "You’ll meet your father if you tell me what I need to hear."Clara seemed to hesitate, her gaze dropping to the floor. After a long moment, she sighed and looked back up at me. "Shadowvale is planning an attack on Mistwood Creek."I felt a surge of anger and concern. "Fair enough," I said. “But that's not all I want to hear and you know it,"“I'm sorry King Marcus, but I don't know who that whirlwind belonged to," She shook her head and I could feel her genuine flow of emotions.“Is there anyone you suspect might be after them?" I asked.“Apart from you, that would be Lucas. He wants the kids, Raymond and Fiona, dead and…” She paused.The
