"Have the courage to be disliked."

Sabrina was eventually done with the tour and she spent the rest of her time before lunch asking different kinds of questions to Judith in the library. Sabrina never had much chance to explore her love for books before, especially fiction books, sure, they had public library back in the city, but it was not that great, since the government fund for the public library was reduced, the maintenance and updates were not that great, so she found a new joy when she realized the manor had a library with updated collection.
“Tell me, what is the alpha’s reputation like in the eyes of the others?” She questioned as she pulled out a book that captured her attention and took a seat to start reading as she listened to Judith’s answer.
“That would greatly depend on who you ask, Sabrina. In the eyes of his family and the people who see him as leader, he is a respected and tough alp
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved in return."-Natalie Cole-***It had been three days since Sabrina arrived in the manor and apparently everything was not a dream. Esther had returned back to her husband and the siblings did their best to avoid any form of confrontation with her, but the mother of the house, Cordelia, had made several attempts to belittle and subtly humiliated her. It was always small things she did whether it was about the way she was dressed to her manners.She was a newcomer, how was she supposed to know which glass was used for what form of liquid. She was not raised in an aristocratic family and no one had taught her about proper fine dining type of table manners. Her entire life she had always been a pretty casual woman and truthfully, the rest of them did not care much about her way of doing things.It was just Cordelia who always made a big deal out of everything and u
"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains un-awakened."-Anatole France-***After her last meeting with Maxi, Sabrina was restless. She did not know what had gotten over her but she still remembered when their lips nearly touched before that stupid knock on the door ruined everything.It had been three days since that day and she barely saw him again afterward except for dinner and breakfast since he was becoming busy, but each time she stared at those piercing blue eyes, she could not help but recall that moment and thought she would eventually go insane.They had not even kissed yet, it was just a fleeting near kiss experience, so why couldn’t she get her mind off of it.Earlier during dinner, she could not help but catch glances of his lips while he was eating and she kept on imagining their kiss together. Sabrina did not know if it was her hormones playing her but she needed to get him
"Feeling irritated, restless, afraid and hopeless is a reminder to listen more carefully."-Pema Chodron-***Alpha Maximillian could not sleep properly for the next few nights. He kept on watching her closely during the day and increased the security around the manor so she would not be able to escape.The man had been feeling uneasy for the past few days. He was still thinking about what Sabrina said.She was planning to run away even though he had provided her with nearly everything she could ever need there and he wondered if he was doing something wrong. What else could she possibly want? The place lacked nothing in terms of comfort and service, he had always treated her well.Perhaps it was his family’s cold treatment toward her, he noticed that his mother had not been treating her well. She was acting like the evil step mother toward Sabrina and perhaps it was the reason why she did not feel at home.It
"I joined the army to avenge the deaths of my family and to survive, but I've come to learn that if I am going to take revenge, in that process I will kill another person whose family will want revenge then revenge and revenge and revenge will never come to an end."-Ishmael Beah-***Gregory Donovan was sitting in the porch of his house, staring blankly at the pathway that connected the market and his house. His mind wandered where his eldest daughter could be at. She was only eighteen and had a long life ahead of her, yet she had been going missing for several days.He had called the police and asked for their help to find her, however, it was all to no avail since they could not do anything. She still was not found after days of searching and they had decided to stop looking since chances of her being dead already was quite high.After all they lived in an isolated mountains filled with wolves and other dangerous wild a
"Faces that have charmed us the most escape us the soonest." -Walter Scott- *** Sabrina had come to a realization that she would never be able to escape at night, so the only time she could escape was in the afternoon several hours before lunch when most of the staff were busy. She would usually take this time to take a nap and during the nap, Judith would not be around in the same room and most of the guards were in the training ground. She thought it was extremely perfect. In the morning after Maxi left her room but before Judith entered to wake her up, she had prepared herself to escape. Since she was brought there in the middle of the night with absolutely nothing carried with her, she did not need to worry about carrying anything. However, in case she got lost, she needed to have some food and water available so she had a small bag filled with water and dry bread she could carry around for days without molding. S
"No one is free. Even the birds are chained to the sky."-Bob Dylan-***Sabrina eventually woke up from her state of unconsciousness after uncertain hours and as she was about to open her eyes, she could feel her body being restricted. She could not seem to move her feet and her arms.She thought she was dreaming until she opened up her eyes and found herself being tied up in the bed with her wrist chained to the side of the bed and her feet were chained to the end of the bed. She looked around her and found herself in the same bedroom she had when she was in the manor, however this time, she was chained instead.Fortunately, her mouth was not restricted, so she screamed and shouted as loud as she could. Soon enough, the door was opened and Judith entered the room with an apologetic expression. Sabrina saw the maid and quickly asked her to undo her chain, however, her answer was rather shocking.“I am truly s
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future."-John F. Kennedy-***Cordelia gathered in the living room with her other children beside Maxi and she appeared to be restless. While her other children stared at their mother questioningly, Cordelia grunted and puffed as her wish for Sabrina to disappear has failed. The children still did not understand why her mother was so bothered by her presence.“Why do you hate her so much? She has never done anything wrong to you.” Beatrix reasoned but she shot her youngest daughter a sinister glare.“You do not understand, that woman is a human. She will bring misfortune to this place if she ever becomes a luna. We need to get rid of her as soon as possible.” She suggested as she bit her own fingernails.The children had never seen their mother this anxious before, it was such an alien sight co
"Experience is making mistakes and learning from them." -Bill Ackman- *** It had been a few days since the day she was chained and Maxi kept his promise and unchained her the next day while Sabrina also kept her promise of not running away again and since that day the two of them had not seen each other much because she had been purposely avoiding him. Sabrina was still upset with how he treated her by chaining her, she thought he must have gone crazy which was the reason why she spent most of the days in her room or training with her new tutors to catch up with her education as well as learning a few other things in private. She was also upset with Judith who could not do anything to help her last time and the maid has paid the price for it with her cold attitude. It was not as if she was a vengeful woman, but it still hurt to find out the person who was supposed to treat you like a friend end up following another pe

"A happy ending is always possible if you are willing to keep the story moving to get there."-Alan Cohen-***Usually when this happened, he would summon her either in the office or their bedroom. This time, it was different. He summoned her to the garden and she wondered why. Maxi was not someone who would come to the garden without purpose, simply because he was not a nature person. She did not think too much and followed until she saw him standing near a big tree in the end of the garden.“What is it, Maxi? Why have you called me at this hour?” She wondered. He smiled slyly as he grabbed her hand without saying anything. Then he suddenly transformed into a wolf and asked her to jump on top of him.Of course, Sabrina did not understand the reason why. She just did as he said and he mind linked her to hold on tightly. She grabbed a handful of his fur and Maxi started running. The sudden motion surprised her a
The surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others. -Martin Luther King Jr.- *** “Luna, please drink this chicken broth soup. It had been brewed with several spices that would replenish your energy.” Judith handed over a bowl to her and she slowly drank it using spoon. She had gotten used to the taste of the soup since it has been delivered to her every single day for the past month. It was a traditional recipe for breastfeeding woman in the clan. Truthfully, she hated the taste since it was so bitter and balsamic, but each time she was done with the bowl, she always felt better than before so she kept on taking it so she could breastfeed her children well. “Judith, I want to see the twins.” She wiped her lips and gave the order. The maid nodded and walked out of the room. Sabrina swore she was starting to get really bored inside the manor. Since she has not fully recovered yet, Maxi has not allowed her to go
"We have a secret in our culture and it's not that birth is painful. It's that women are strong."-Laura Stavoe Harm-***The day of Sabrina’s labor has arrived. Since midnight, she had been sent to a guest room which had been re arranged for her delivery. The entire time, Maxi has been holding her hand for hours.She had been in so much pain and her scream could be heard from outside the room and the manor. The guards had been arranged to guard around the manor and ensure nobody from the outside could get inside except for the birth maids.An hour after the initial contraction, Dr Hay and two other birth maids helped her with the delivery process and they too had not rested for hours, taking turn in supporting her to ensure everything was fine.“You can do it my love, just push a bit further.” Maxi was a bit worried for her since she was going to deliver a hybrid baby. In the past, birth to Hybrid
"Being gifted needs courage."-Georg Brandes-***That morning after breakfast, Maxi accompanied Sabrina to the green house where Alphonse was. She brought a small pouch filled with a few stones Maxi gave her and she planned on giving it over to Alphonse.She opened the green house door and saw him sitting there while drinking tea like usual. He quickly noticed their arrival and invited him with a polite smile on. She walked in with Maxi and greeted him cheerfully.“Good morning, Alphonse. Sorry to disturb you this early without any notice, but I have come here to thank you for everything. I thought of giving you something as a token of my gratitude.” She pulled out the pouch from her pocket and handed it over to him.“What is this, luna?” The man opened up the pouch and was surprised by the crystal he saw. Alphonse recognized them right away and he nearly teared up because of it. He was not
"It is the most powerful creation to have life that is growing inside of you, there is no bigger gift."-Beyonce-***A few days has passed since the crazy incident and there has been some peace and calm in the Dravos manor. Even though her relationship with the other members of the family was still strained, Sabrina did not care and simply focused on herself and her pregnancy.A day after she returned from the kidnapping, she was worried for the fetus inside of her. Everything that happened might have caused some injury on the baby but she went and had her baby checked and the doctor said everything was fine.However, that morning she woke up and realized her bump was much bigger than before. When she went to bed, she was sure the bump was not that large and this scared her. She quickly woke Maxi up and her panicked face was all he needed to call the doctor again.Even though it was early in the morning, just an ho
"If you don't recount your family history, it will be lost. Honor your own stories and tell them too. The tales may not seem very important, but they are what binds families and make each of us who we are."-Madeleine L'Engle-***“What do you mean that she is my great grandmother?” She had known everyone from her father’s lineage and it was never mentioned that anyone was a high priestess of a sect that worshipped the moon goddess. If what the goddess was saying, it must mean that she was her great grandmother from her mother.“How is that even possible?” She wondered. Before she died, her mother had never told her anything about her grandmother or great-grandmother. She has never mentioned anything about their lineage so Sabrina had never heard of it before.“Yes, you are right, she is from your mother’s lineage. However, this scene right here is only the beginning. Let me show y
"Hell is empty and all the devils are here."-William Shakespeare-***Once everything was over, the room completely transformed itself. The two of them walked out from the room with Herod dragged around. They were in the place's living room and They wondered what they were supposed to do with him."Let me go, you filthy werewolves. I rather die than become your prisoner." Herod spat, angering Maxi and Alphonse."I think we should just get rid of him right away. His siblings are all dead. If he's left alive he might end up taking revenge on us again in the future and we cannot risk that." Maxi suggested with a cold, dangerous tone. This man dared to hurt his luna and mate. For an alpha, that was the biggest humiliation and threat he could receive in his entire life."I completely agree. Luna, if you allow me, I will erase this man's existence right here and now. This man is better off dead than alive." She was a bit
"The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it."-John 1:5-***Sabrina stood in front of the witches completely unharmed with Alphonse standing beside her. Maxi stood up and took a deep breath to regain his strength. The blow did make an impact on him and his body still hurt but seeing Sabrina safe was all he needed.He walked toward his woman while dispelling each attack thrown his way and managed to reach his woman. He went to give her a huge hug and during this time, Josephine and Herod joined forces to attack them from a close distance but Alphonse quickly used his magic to break theirs.The power they had learnt from years of practice suddenly became nothing in front of Alphonse.“You! Just who are you!?” They wondered for they had never known or seen him before. They also did not know that the Azure Blood clan specifically had such strong wizard on their side. They knew the
