Sara’s eyes fluttered open slowly, as she lifted her head from the bed. The rays of sunlight reflected directly on her eyes and she used her hand to obstruct the rays.The door opened, and Violet walked in, who instantly increased her pace when she saw Sara sitting up.“My Lady, you are awake,” Violet uttered as she ran to Sara's side.“Slowly.” Sara sat up with Violet's help. She looked around the room before turning to Violet.“I was at the ceremony hall, how did I get here?” She asked Violet, who smiled at her.“It was Alpha Killian that brought you here,” Violet replied, wondering if she should tell her about Killian's condition or not.“Oh! Did I pass out or…” Sara's eyes bulged as she remembered what had happened to her at the ceremony hall. She remembered being poisoned and almost on the verge of death; she also remembered Killian holding on to her dearly, and she remembered…“Oh no! How was I saved? Where's Killian?” She screamed out as she could remember Savannah's condition;
Clara smiled at herself as she looked at the plan she had formulated. She was so confident in herself that nothing would go wrong. She opened her drawer and took out a piece of black clothing, which she wore. She tore a part of the dress and covered her face with it.“Perfect!” She muttered to herself as she stared into the mirror. She glanced at the clock, and it was about five minutes to eleven in the evening.She gently opened the door to avoid it making a creak sound and she tiptoed out of the room. She switched off the torch in her hand and blended with the darkness.She ran as fast as she could to the prison area; the guards were moving about, which signified that they were switching positions.She looked around as if she was waiting for someone. She heaved a sigh when she saw a figure approaching her, it was Lydia.“Were you able to get it?” Clara asked while Lydia gave her a mischievous smile.“Trust me, that's easy for me.” She replied as she dipped her hand into her shirt an
Clara ran as fast as her legs could carry her into the nearby bush. The guards were catching up with her so fast. She made a quick diversion and hid herself under a big tree. The guards ran past her without suspecting that she was there.She heaved a sigh and made to turn when she accidentally stepped on leaves, which made a loud ruffling sound. “Who is there?” A voice that Clara recognized to belong to the assistant general roared, and a hefty figure marched towards her.Her heart began to race, and her armpit itched. As the assistant general approached her, someone pulled her from behind and dragged her to the top of the tree; the person also dropped something to the ground.The assistant general arrived at the spot and couldn't find anyone. He lit his torch and checked the surroundings, only for him to find a small Rabbit roaming around the tree. The assistant general sighed and walked away.“Lydia,” Clara uttered in surprise as she recognized her savior to be Lydia.“How come you
Sara wished her world could collapse as she realized that she had alerted the people. She immediately turned to run and didn't forget to hold the herb tightly to her chest. Even though she was tired, the thought of Killian lying down in danger fueled her to run faster. The villains must not catch her as it wouldn't be the end of only her, it could spell doom for Killian also.The man and woman didn't seem to relent also, as they chased her deep into the forest.Everywhere was dark, and Sara couldn't see the ground very well. She accidentally hit her leg on a tree branch, which made her twist her ankle, and she headed towards the floor.As she was about to fall, a silver-streaked wolf suddenly appeared, grabbed her, and landed a fierce kick on the man pursuing her.Sara looked at the wolf, it felt so warm and familiar, she was sure she had seen it somewhere before. She racked her brain as she watched the wolf attack the man pursuing her, then she remembered.“Killian.” She yelled and r
“Did you have something to do with the Luna's poisoning?” Jared asked her, while she scratched her head with her fingers.He sighed and placed his hand on her shoulders.“I know you love the Alpha, but you shouldn't take such a grave risk. What if you were caught, I might not be able to save you.” He added.There were some sounds around the house, and Jared peeped through the window to take a look.“They are searching every house, hurry and freshen up,” Jared ordered, and Lydia ran to her room. Jared dipped the pass in a bowl of water and wiped it neat of the blood. He sighed, he never knew his daughter could be so bold to take a life.There was a knock on the door, and one of the maids went to receive the person knocking.“Where is General Jared?” The assistant chief guard asked the maid.“He is inside. Please wait while I tell him of your visit.” The maid replied and turned to walk away, but was stopped by Jared's voice.“Who is disturbing me by this hour?” Jared yelled as he walked
The chirpings of birds jerked Sara to consciousness as she opened her eyes slowly. She gazed at Killian and checked his wound. It was perfectly healed, as if there was no cut there before. She checked her ankle and she could move her leg freely now.“The king's herb is truly magical.” She muttered to herself.She rested her hand on her chin and smiled at Killian's handsomeness. She could proudly boast that Killian was the most handsome man he had ever met.“Are you so jealous of my beauty?” Killian teased her as he rose from the bed.“Why will I be jealous? You are mine already.” She replied while Killian smiled.“Right, how are you feeling now?” Sara asked him as she inched closer to him.Killian moved his arms and tried to exert his strength before nodding his head.“Just as the doctor predicted, I have regained about sixty percent of my power.” He said to her, and Sara smiled.“Great to hear.” “Oh yeah, who were those people chasing after you last night?” Killian asked her.“If yo
“Let's go home, you shouldn't stress yourself too much because of your health.” Sara pointed out to Killian.“C’mon, I am fine, perfectly fine,” Killian replied.“I know, but the doctor advised you not to stay long outside, so let's go.” She muttered and Killian sighed.His face lit open as something crossed his mind.“Yeah…you are right. Let's head home, so we can make some…” he stopped and focused his gaze on her eyes. He then lowered his head to her ear and whispered a word into it;“...babies,” He finalized, which caused Sara to smile widely.“C’mon, with your health? Stop joking.” She jokingly replied to him.“What's with my health? I am perfectly fine.” Killian said to her. They both held each other's hands and chatted happily while they headed home.“Greetings, my Alpha.” Violet greeted as they both approached her.“I want to have a private time with my Luna, please give us some space,” Killian ordered. Violet gave Sara a mischievous look as she understood what Killian meant.“
People trooped out of their various houses as the guards marched in the direction of the Apothecary.A loud knock landed on the door which angered Savannah.“Who the hell is that?” She screamed out before flinging the door open. She was shocked to see the number of guards standing in front of her.“What do you guys want here?” She managed to say after some moments of being stunned.“Does this paper belong to you?” Patrick asked as he stretched out his hand for Savannah's reach.Savannah grabbed the paper from him and rolled her eyes over it. Their family's signature was right at the back, so there was no way for her to deny it.She felt the content of the paper, and she became instantly alarmed.“Oh no! This was the paper I gave to Clara.” She thought within herself and instantly calmed herself down. She tried not to show her nervousness in front of the guards.“Yeah. It's mine. Any problem?” She asked the guard, desperately hiding her nervousness.“I am sorry, lady Savannah, I am afr
“Did he know I added the pill? The color remained the same, and nothing about the odor changed. Oh no…did it taste different?” Various thoughts flashed through Violet's mind as she darted her eyeballs around. She suddenly began to feel so hot despite the cool breeze that blew inside.“Violet?” Killian called out, causing Violet to raise her eyes sharply at him.“I…I don't understand what you are talking about, my Alpha. I didn't add anything to the water.” Violet stuttered, rubbing her fingers against one another.“Well…” Killian paused, dropped the cup on the table and smiled.“The water felt so refreshing, and it calmed my boiling nerves. That's why I asked you the question. Don't overthink it.” He said to her calmly. Violet took a deep breath, bit her lower lip and sighed.“You can leave.” Said Sara as she dismissed Violet. She turned to Killian, looking so perplexed as she was unsure of what just happened.“What happened just now? Did she truly mix something with the water?” Sara
“My Alpha, are we going to ignore the moon priestess warnings? I am sure she said those words for no reason.” One of the elders chipped in during the council meeting with Killian.Killian sighed, brushed his hair with his hand and shook his head.“It troubles me also. I don't understand what she meant by those words she said to Sara. Or does she imply that we use Sara as a sacrifice? That can't be possible.” Another elder added after Killian took a while to respond.Killian glanced at the two elders, they were elder Maxwell and elder Keon. Both of them had opposed him violently when he wanted to ascend the throne as the alpha of the pack.It's not surprising to him if they were actually pressuring him to use Sara as a sacrifice.“I don't think that's what she meant, elder Keon. There is something you guys don't know, and I am ready to tell you now.” Killian paused to take a deep breath. He tightened his grip around his chair, realizing the weight of what he was about to say.“Sara is
“Mother, I thought you died. How have you been all these while? You’ve suffered.” Zayne cried, he placed his mother on a sofa and sat beside her.Calypso, Zayne's mother grabbed his hand, stroked it gently and smiled. Zayne had ordered the maids to clean her up and make her refreshed.In her current state, she looked nothing less than a beautiful maiden in mid-twenties.“Don't blame yourself my son. I also didn't expect to survive the huge fire. Luckily, I was saved by a young man who took me out of the pack. Probably due to the shock, I lost my memories and just regained them weeks ago.” She explained to him. Zayne brimmed widely as he listened to Calypso's talk. He nodded his head, grabbed a bottle of wine and poured some for Calypso.“I won't forgive Killian for making you pass through that. He will pay for his sins.” Zayne uttered, clenching his fists together while Calypso instantly held his hand and tightened it even more.“Yes son, you should avenge me. The red moon pack and th
“Really? You don't want to call me Zayne?” Zayned asked with a smile. He turned over to his left side so he could stare straight at Betty.“I mean…everyone calls you Zayne, I just want to be unique.” Betty hummed, she but his lower lip, wore a little frown that would make Zayne agree to her request.Zayne sighed, laid on his back while he stared blankly at the ceiling. Betty, upon seeing she got no response from Zayne stood up and placed her hand on Zayne's bare chest.“What are you thinking?” She inquired.“Vincent.” Zayne replied to her, his face was expressionless as he mentioned the name.“What?” Betty asked, her face crawling up in confusion.Zayne's emotionless expression suddenly disappeared as a warm smile formed in his lips;“Didn't you want a unique name for me? You just reminded me of my mother. She was the only one in the world that called me Vincent, she never called me Zayne. And I also remember the scar that was right on her forehead” He explained to her. Betty slowly w
“What do you think of what the moon priestess said? Her words somehow scare me?” Sara uttered as she laid on Killian's arm, gazing at the full moon, and the shining little stars.Killian tilted his head sideways, his lower lip curled up as a smile crept on his lips.“I feel like she just said that to intimidate you, she was probably joking.” Killian replied to her. Sara snorted, her brows furrowed in confusion while she pouted her lips.“It doesn't feel like that. She seemed so serious when she delivered the message, and something tells me that it's important I listen to her.” She sighed. Killian gently sat up, pulled Sara into his embrace while he slowly rubbed her hair.“Don't be afraid. I am here. I failed to protect you the last time, I assure you that nothing will happen to you again.” Killian assured her with a soft, yet firm voice. He slowly dragged his hand down her head and rested it on her belly.“Our…our child. How's it?” Killian stuttered, his head hitting hard as he dread
“Give us your blessings, moon priestess. We’ve accepted our mate bond, and thankfully, the prophecy can be reversed.” Zayne smiled at Betty as he said to the moon priestess.The moon priestess nodded her head, walked towards Betty and smiled.“Betty, right?” She inquired, slowly grabbing Betty's injured leg and applied some whitish cream on it.“Yes, moon priestess. I fell in love with Zayne at a glance, and I can say that I want to spend the rest of my life with him.” Betty replied to the moon priestess who simply nodded her head without looking at her.The moon priestess took a deep breath, and glanced at Zayne.“It's done. Her leg should be perfectly healed in three days.” She stated, packing her stuff back into the bag.“Thank you moon priestess. It's our honor to have you here.” Zayne responded, still smiling at Betty.The moon priestess looked at Betty for a while, before a worried expression formed on her face.She seemed to give off a mixture of auras, one seemed calm and rela
“My Alpha.” Three guards bowed in front of Zayne, breathing hard as they stared at each other.“What exactly happened? Just tell me.” Zayne fired, as he brows furrowed in confusion. He leaned forward on his throne, his mind reeling for answers.“It's about Sara, my Lord.” One of the guards replied to him. Zayne jumped up from the throne as if the message had a stinging effect on his butt.“What happened to her? Didn't I tell you to drop that corpse in front of the blue moon pack?” Zayne inquired as he marched towards the men. He grabbed one of them by the chin, his hot breath brushing the face of the guard.“She…she has returned to Killian's side.” The guard stuttered, bringing his head down as he avoided Zayne's fiery gaze.Zayne staggered a few steps, he curled his fingers into a fist, clenching it so hard till his sharp fingers made a cut on his palm, causing blood to drip down his hand.He bit his lower lip, turned around and slowly walked to the throne. He sat with his head burie
Sara flung around just to see two ladies standing behind her, one was dressed in black, with a dark veil tied around her face, while the other stared at her with love, and compassion.The lady clubbed in black groaned as blood gushed out of her belly, she crashed to the wet ground, her dark red blood mixing with the rain water that flowed.“My lady.” Violet ran to Sara, hugged her as tears pumped down her eyes forcefully. She wrapped her hands around her tightly as she sobbed. Sara opened her mouth, but the words couldn't get past her throat. All these while, she had thought Violet was no more, she had thought she was the cause of Violet's death, and had blamed herself for it.“I thought you were dead, I thought I wouldn't have a master to serve anymore, but thanks to heaven, you are alive.” Violet cried. Sara lifted her hand slowly and patted Violet's back, she rolled her eyes to the dying lady that groaned softly.“Violet, who is she?” Sara asked her. Violet wiped her tears, withdre
“Wait…did you hear that?” Killian suddenly stopped, walking back into the ancestral rooms as he frantically scanned the whole area.“Hear what? I didn't hear anything” Violet asked him, also darting her eyes around, wondering what Killian was talking about.“She called me, I heard her voice. I heard her voice just now.” Killian screamed, he rushed out of the ancestral house, running towards the forest that bridged the blue moon pack from the red moon pack.“Whose voice did you hear? Who the hell called you?” Violet yelled after him, confused about Killian's strange behavior.She locked the ancestral room and ran after Killian.The clouds suddenly turned dark, accompanied by some huge lightning strikes, and violent thunders as a heavy rain threatened to pour.Nevertheless, Killian kept on running deeper into the forest. He was suddenly filled with a surge of energy, that even his injured leg couldn't hold him back.“Did you hear it also?” He asked his wolf as he ran under the dark clou
