ELEANORMy eyes grew with a mixture of astonishment and embarrassment as I managed to regain my stand. I could see his eyes all over that annoying omega, and that freaked me out the most. In the most convincing tone, I held Alpha Jordan’s hand. My eyes gleaming with hope. “Alpha, what’s going on? Everyone is watching.” It came out like a muffle, but it was audible enough for him to hear. He looked confused as well. Staring blankly at me, he stared back at his palms, and then his gaze went back to Daphne. “Alpha, What is going on?” The elders asked him, and my father hurried over to him with questioning eyes. I knew how important our pack’s collaboration with the Red Moon Pack is to him. Jordan shook his head. “I don’t know, but I can’t seem to mark her. I mean, I wanted to, but a strong force pushed me off her.”Tears circulated in my eyes, and I clenched my fist tightly. This is my only chance to be with Jordan, nothing can stop me. “A strong force?” My father laughed dryly. “Wh
The lights were flickering, and the lighted candles danced to the tone of the wind. The moon was bright, up in the sky and birds sang melodies in high-pitched voices. However, it was an unusual night. Despite the moon that was sitting bright up in the sky, lightning and thunder kept rumbling. The black witch sat on the rug with lit candles around her, forming a circle. She stared into the space with a short scepter on the ground and some weird looking beads. The globe ball was also placed in between my folded legs as she held a long bead that she used in her incantations. “Hocus pocus… Alakazam” She mumbled, but the furious looking man who stood beside her, banged his fist on the table making her flinch and snap her eyes open. The man pointed at a cracked but not broken egg on the table. “You said she’s here. Why hasn’t the egg hatched yet? Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day? When? When can I get this done with? My days are numbered, Witch. If things are not done quickl
DAPHNEI still had on the makeup from the Alpha’s birthday party. My face was totally messed up by the mascara as a result of the crying. The thought that Jordan would be marking Eleanor made my heart ache. Why do I feel heartbroken thinking about it? He's not even my mate, and I’m a breeder… accused of being a blood sucking freak too. My life is totally messed up, if I were Jordan, I wouldn’t want to be with me. My eyes widened the moment I heard a click on the switch outside and the light went off. Darkness embraced the cell, and I panicked. Since I got my wolf, the night blindness became better, but I’ve never stopped being scared while in the dark. It brings up the trauma I felt when my mother died in the fire. “What’s going on?” I asked no one in particular, trying to spring up from the ground where I sat, but my left leg was cramping so bad. Thankfully, the small holes on the wall made the cell not to be entirely dark. The chains used to lock the keys of the cell gate clanke
JORDANI was busy at the office with some of the pack reports when I heard commotions from the entrance. I recognized Madam Dorothy’s voice and, of course, Theodore.Madam Dorothy stormed into the office with her eyes swollen. It was obvious that she had been crying her eyes out. “You little brat, how could you?” She yelled at me, adjusting her glasses. I took a deep sigh, and raised my eyes to look at her, trying hard to look tough. “Madam Dorothy, what is going on?”“What is going on?” She mimicked me, and chuckled sadly. “I should be asking you that, Alpha Jordan. Is it true? Is it true that your engagement with Eleanor is back on? I thought you called it off.” She asked, standing in akimbo.“Does it matter? Why are you so worked up over that, madam Dorothy?” I avoided eye contact with her. Of course, she raised me, and she could tell if I was telling a lie by just looking into my eyes. She shook her head in utter disbelief. “Are you blind, or are you pretending not to see it? I
ELEANOR“Something is definitely wrong somewhere. I don’t get it. Why is it so difficult to get that lowly omega out of my way?” I yelled, banging my fist on the table. The Black witch chuckled mysteriously, staring blankly into the air. “Lowly omega?” She shook her head. “What is so mysterious about that girl? Without her in the picture, I am the only suitable person to become the Luna of the Red Moon pack. I’ve known Jordan all my life… Who else could be more befitting to be with him if not me?” My voice was filled with bitterness. The witch sneered. “You little silly wolf. She might look like a lowly omega in your eyes, but there’s more to what the eyes can see.”“Didn’t you assure me? You told me that the damn tooth was going to compel her into doing whatever I wanted, didn’t you? Now what? I might have succeeded in landing her into a deep sh*t, but how am I sure she’s going to remain there?” I paced around in annoyance.The witch shut her eyes, making some inaudible incantatio
JORDAN“You have brought her nothing but bad luck. Can’t you see it? One day, we’ll rip her heart off her body… that’s how murderous we are…” The words drilled a deep hole in my chest, and I groaned in pain.The figure in front of me was standing in the dark, so I couldn’t see the face… I only heard the voice.“No… I can never hurt her.” I shook my head in disagreement. My chest hurt a lot, I could only aid it, by clutching to my chest. The figure laughed mockingly. “Don’t forget in a rush how we killed your parents. You and I are meant to be together. You can’t love anyone as long as I’m here. Anyone you care about will die by your hands.” The voice had a strong murder intent. “Stay away from her. I would never let you hurt her. Why can’t you let me live my life, you lunatic?” I shouted at it, fuming with anger.“Let you live your life?” The voice scoffed. “I am your other half… your cursed half. I’m partly your wolf and your body. If I let you be, then you’ll die. Don’t you dare t
