***Alpha Xavier's POV**“Hell no, Alpha, I can't let you go alone.”“What do you mean? You want to come with me?”“Yes. It is only right that I come with you. Especially now that our enemies might be lurking around.”“If that's the case, then you have nothing to fear. I'll take a few men with me, and also, I'm always with my silver dagger, so there's nothing for you to worry about.”“I understand what you're saying, still I don't think you should go alone.”“Can you please try to understand where I'm coming from, Drake? Though there's no people to govern right now, my mate is here. You think I can entrust her safety to anyone else except you. You and I both know the role she played during the battle. You think the vampires will let her go. If there's anybody who needs more protection, it's her. What if you come with me, and it happens that she's the target. You think our men alone can fight them?”Drake paused at this moment. I believe he understands me now.“You're right, Alpha. Inde
***Alpha Xavier's POV***As soon as I got into the woods, I suddenly noticed them gathering around me. They are wary of the unknown. They must be thinking that I didn't come alone. Though they gathered around, they didn't dare to come near me. “Where is your leader?!”I asked while looking at them. They all stared at one another and snarled at me instead. “So, your leader isn't here, and you had the nerve to stop me from leaving?”They snarled again. “Tell me where your fucking leader is, else you all will die by my hands one by one,” I stated and quickly took out my dagger.”“You don't need to get too worked up, Alpha. Their leader is here,” a voice said from behind. I quickly turned around and saw this do called leader of theirs walking towards me with arms crossed behind me. “Oh, so you are the new leader?”“Nope. I have always been the leader. The one you killed only took my place. Should I be glad that I was sensible enough not to take the lead back then?”“Yea, you're smar
***Melissa's POV***Just when I was happy about the fact that he had come home safely, he suddenly moved a not away from me and muttered about going back to his room. I didn't understand why he was suddenly going to his room like he had an emergency.I was about to ask him what' really happened during his trip when he suddenly ran off like a bat out of a cage and just like that, he flew out of my room at the speed of light.I walked over to the mirror and took a good look at myself. I didn't see anything wrong with my face or body. I raised my arms up and sniffed my armpit area, but I smelled nice. What could have made him run off like a bat out of a cage?Well, he could be back to his old habits. It was better seeing him this way than seeing him depressed and sad. I decided to turn in for the night since everything seemed to be okay. But just as I was about to opt into bed, the door to my room immediately flung open at once. I jolted away from my bed and took my gaze to the door,
***Alpha Xavier's POV***“Want it? What?” She asked, staring at me with a confused look. Damn it! It can't be that I'm the dumb one right now. I've never been the one who took the initiative, and the reason it's difficult for me to take the lead or at least tell her how I was feeling. I stared down at her legs, which were exposed. They were beautifully curved at the right places. I took my gaze higher to get hips. For the first time, I noticed my mate was a beauty, but because I was blinded by revenge, which made it impossible for me to let go of the past, I didn't appreciate the beauty I had. “Alpha Xavier, you're confusing me,” she stated, and I quickly snapped out of my dirty wandering thoughts. “It's…" I swallowed hard, thinking about how to present what I feel for her, so I wouldn't look too weird in front of her.“Melissa, do you want to have sex with me?”I hit the nail on the head even though it was the worst way to present such a matter“What?” She asked as if she were ab
***Melissa's POV***The moment I asked, he stared at me with a surprised looking expression. Did my words surprise him that much?Just then, he stirred in my hands. Staring at his huge dick, I can't help fantasizing how it's going to be inside me. My last experience was terrible and as a result, I'm trying to examine him. He looked so huge that I was scared he wouldn't fit in. I know a thing or two about sex. These are part of the things I was taught, even though I didn't get a complete education like Jasmine did. He stirred again, and I suddenly felt myself getting wet. There's no doubt that I needed him down there. I stared at his dick staring in my face, and the only thing that came to mind at this point was my lips on it. “Lisa, do you want to suck me?”I quickly took my gaze up at him. How did he know what I wanted to do? “Can I?”“Fuck, you can,” he permitted. Immediately I leaned and kissed his tip. He jolted slightly and leaked profusely, and this seemed like a trigger to
***Alpha Xavier's POV***I can't remember how good I felt having sex. How did I miss this? I can't count how long we've been going for. It should be a couple of hours now. “Aaaaa,” Melissa moaned as I sank my fang into her neck, marking her as mine. While I did this, I didn't stop pounding her from behind. I licked the blood that spilled from her neck. I could feel that my wolf was finally satisfied with my action when I noticed how relaxed he felt. I caressed the part of her neck which I had marked; she moaned out more loudly that I could hardly recognize her voice since it had cracked. She's been moaning for hours. “I think I'm coming again,” she informed me. “Then we should come together,” with that, I increased my pace and together, we descended from our highs. We both breathed heavily with sweat dripping on our skin. She collapsed on the bed with her back against me. I also collapsed on the bed beside her while breathing hard and fast. This was a memorable sex, and I know I'
***Melissa's POV***I woke up as the sunlight bathed my face, causing me to stir in bed. I turned to the other side of the bed and stretched my hand towards the other side, hoping to place it around someone's chest or arm at least. To my greatest surprise, it was empty. This made me furrow my brow, confused. I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the side of the bed where I placed my hand and found no one in it. Huh? Where did he go? I thought he was in bed with me a while ago? I slowly looked out of the window and saw that it was a bright day. With a smile on my face, I got up from the bed. Just then. I felt a sting on my neck which made me place my hand on my neck. It tickled me and made my wolf wag its tail. My wolf must be so happy at the fact that we've finally been marked by our mate. Suddenly, I felt an image flash before me. A woman in white. “Melissa,” she called. I paused and shut my eyes, wondering if this was a vision too. Who was she? Why was she calling me? After a
***Melissa's POV***“Uhm, I wanted to ask if you actually sent someone to bring me breakfast.”“Yes, I did. Anything wrong with the food?” He answered, still not looking in my direction. “What? You actually sent someone into my room to serve me breakfast?”He finally raised his head up to stare at me, but his expression was confusing. He was staring at me as if I had said something out of the ordinary. Now I'm even wondering what I might have said wrong when, in reality, I'm the one who has been wronged. “Melissa, I don't think I understand what you mean. I thought you'd be happy you were served breakfast in bed.”Was he kidding me? Melissa? Wait a minute, didn't he call me Lisa last night? How come he's calling me Melissa? What happened last night was still obvious in my head. But why does it seem like he totally formatted his memory of last night. Just then, I let out a silent gasp when I realized that he might have been on heat and didn't actually mean to do that to me? So,
***Melissa's POV***Arnold staggered backwards as he was stabbed. The knife she used was purely made of dark magic. That very instant, I noticed Arnold going pale. “No!” I screamed out in anger at what happened right in front of me. Just then, I force pulled me up from the floor and I couldn't tell how I did it but the next thing I knew, I was standing right in front of the witch whose hands had become bloody with my mate's blood. I gripped her on the neck and pulled her up. “How dare you put a finger on my mate! I swear, I'll never forgive you. You must pay with your life for what you've done to my mate!”That's all it took for me to snap her neck. When I realized the witch had finally been killed, I tossed her to the ground and turned around towards my mate, who was now lying helplessly on the floor with Xavier by his side. Seeing my mate struggling for his life made my heart ache terribly. I felt like I was going to die from the pain. I managed to carry myself to his side. “
***Melissa's POV***“Argh!” I screamed out in pain as the young witch continued to cast her spell. Presently, I had shifted back into my human form as I couldn't bear the immense pain from the burning I felt on my back. Just then, I heard my child scream out. I quickly turned around to see my child who was crying non-stop. If it were to be in another situation, I would have been annoyed at the fact that my child was crying so hard. But currently, I felt relieved that my child was crying because it was an indication that he was alive. The cries of my child suddenly gave me the strength I thought had been drained by the witch. “You think I'm going to let you win? Never!”I struggled to stand up on my feet while the Witch continued to cast her incantations. I wasn't concerned about what she was doing at that moment. Rather, what I was more concerned about was the fact that I had to escape from this coven after finishing off their witch. With the little power left in me, I shit my ey
***Alpha Xavier's POV***Just as I was about to join them to cast the spell, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart, which made me stagger backwards. “Argh!” I heard someone scream, to my shock, it was Arnold. He held on to his chest just like I did. “Arnold, Xavier, what's going on. Why do you both feel the same pain at once?” Emilia asked, confused. “I have no idea, Emilia.”They probably do not know since we are of different tribes, but I know very well what this means. “We need to hurry with whatever spell week is about to carry out. Melissa is in danger. She must have been hurt,” I said in panic. I sat next to Arnold. At this point, I can't afford to hold whatever grudge I have against since we both have one common goal, and that is to find Melissa as soon as possible.I shut my eyes and let Emilia cast the spell, just as she had said she would. In no time, I found myself in the woods. I looked around, but I was alone. Where were Emilia and Arnold? Just then, I realized
**Alpha Xavier's POV***I've searched the woods for two days, yet there was no sign of a single witch. I was beginning to doubt whether what Badmos gave me was effective or not. Of course, it has to be effective. I had to find my child, but I don't even know where to search anymore. “Alpha, Xavier, I'm not sure if we'll be able to find your son this way. I think what we need is a powerful watch who knows the terrain. The orb is probably broken or ineffective.”“I thought so too,” I muttered. “Why don't we go back to the coven to see how things were in the coven?”“No, I can't!”“What? Why not?” Drake asked in surprise. “Listen, I promised my Luna that I was never coming back until I could bring my child with me.”"Of course I was there when you said that, but at this point, you also know that there's no way we can find your son. He's an Infant, where do we even begin to search for an infant.”“My child isn't whom I'm looking for, but the bitch who took my son.”“But there's no such
***Melissa's POV***I stood in front of two ladies. One looked as old as Emilia while the other was as young as I am, though I could tell that she's not as young as I think she is. To worsen it, she's the one carried my child who is now quiet. I wonder if he's doing okay by being silent, or if they used some kind of dark spell to keep him shut. “I'm here now, please give me back my child.”The ladies both looked at one another and laughed out hysterically. “Mother, she's such a naive one. Who would have thought that she'll really come to us so easily.”“Don't talk like that child. She's a mother, so it's only natural that she would do everything to save her child, and this is one thing we lack.”“You're right now. And that is why we must break this goddess forsaken curse!”The moment they mentioned the curse, I was reminded of what Emilia had told me earlier about the curse my grandmother had laid on them. “The curse, huh? I know about this curse. But then, my child has got nothing
**Badmos POV**While in bed, I couldn't sleep because I realized that this wasn't the best way to protect Melissa. I promised Xavier that I was going to watch over her, and the best way I could actually do that is by staying by her side if I have to. This is the only way for her me to fully keep an eye on her. I quickly rolled out of bed and headed to her room. But before then, I stopped at Emilia's. I knocked light in Emilia's door and in a few seconds, Emilia got the door. “Badmos, you're still awake.”“Couldn't sleep. With my grandson missing and Melissa in the terrible state she's in, I can't leave her in such a state, you know.”“You're right. I checked on her a few minutes ago. I think we should both check on her again, just to be certain she's okay.”Emilia and I both went to her door. But then, Emilia both noticed something strange, and that was the lack of a presence in the room. We could both feel it from where she stood. Emilia and I both exchanged quick glances before
**Melissa's POV***Even though I saw no wisps on the way, that didn't stop me from forging her head. I had the belief that no matter what, I'll find my child. After walking for almost an hour without knowing where I was headed, I suddenly noticed a bright light ahead of me. What is that? I increased my walking speed. I couldn't shift into my wolf, as I was too weak to do so. And since I'll be meeting a witch, then I'll have to retain my human form to fight if I have to. My wolf cannot save me from her spell, and I cannot carry out the spell I know as well. The more I walked over to the lights, the farther it looked. This is confusing. How can there be a bright light in the woods that is unattainable . Still, I didn't give up. The will to save my child is way stronger than any thought about giving up. I definitely cannot give up now, I don't care where my child is right now. All I know is that I must save my child as soon as possible.After walking for what seemed like hours, I fina
***Melissa's POV***I could hardly sleep when nightfall came. I worry about my child and my mates. I wonder whether they were doing okay or not. What if something bad had happened to them? Worst still, what if the Witches are more powerful than Xavier and Arnold? Doesn't this mean I'll lose everyone?I tossed in my bed with so much worry in my heart. The door to my room flew open and Emilia showed up. “It's as if I knew you wouldn't be sleeping by this time. “I can't sleep. I'm just too worried, we've tried all the tracking spells we know, but we still can't find them. Doesn't this mean they are more powerful than we are?”“Not at all. They are not as powerful as we are. The only reason it looks difficult to get them is their possession of dark magic. If not for the dark magic they possess, I can assure you that you'll surely get to them. They know they'll be caught, that's why they used the dark spell.”“Can't we use the dark spell too. I mean, since it has come to this point, don'
***Alpha Xavier's POV***“Your child is missing. I have seen it in my visions since three days ago.”That made me stagger backwards. “Wait a minute, I don't think I heard you correctly. What do you mean by my child has gone missing? “ How can he go missing just like that?“I'm sorry, this is hard for you to accept, but I can't lie to you about something like this, you know.”“I still don't get it. Why is my child missing? What happened to my child?” I demanded in rage. “Xavier, calm down. Your child is not dead yet. He's only missing. Presently, your Luna needs you most. Please hurry over to her side.”As soon as Alana said the last words, I bolted out of her room and headed straight to the witch's coven. “Alpha, where are you headed in such a hurry?”Drake asked as he saw me heading out of the pack house. I quickly turned around to face him. “Drake, you must take care of pack matters until my return. I need to attend to something pretty urgent.”“Why do you look panicked? Why don
