Killian's point of viewI froze as my amber eyes pierced right through that of Thea's. I didn't know why that name of hers sounded familiar, and the look she held in her brown eyes told me I was right. There was more to all of this.For the first time, all I could see in those venomous brown eyes was hate. A deep unmistakable hatred for me. She hated me. But why?I took a step closer to her, as silence lingered between us for a second."Am I supposed to know that name?" I asked, and the brown fury in her eyes only sparked more.But she didn't say a word."Thea, you've been caught. And there's no way you'll be breaking free. Every one of those," I pointed at the chains binding her. "They've been spelled to keep you from using your magic, and also this dungeon. So, we could do this the easy way or the hard way. I know you are working for Lucius—" I began but her hysterical laughter cut me off immediately.I paused, watching her until she was done."You are completely clueless, aren't yo
Unknown person's point of viewI was dying to see her after she's been caught and thrown in the dungeon in a state worse than a prisoner.But I just couldn't be careless and get caught.Killian had eyes on the dungeon and I couldn't risk getting caught. So, I had no choice but to wait until there was a shift in the guards, before the first light of dawn.I had volunteered to keep watch over Thea's dungeon with a few warriors. After a while of guarding outside the dungeon, I turned to the warriors and told them I had to go check on the prisoner.I pulled the large dungeon doors open, stalking through the narrow passage down to where another tall door was.Gently, I unlocked it open with a spare key, jerking it open and my eyes instantly fell on my mate. It broke my heart completely to see her confined against the chair like some kind of monster.I walked in, but her eyes were closed. As if sensing my presence, she breathed out."What the hell are you doing here?" She bit out ragingly,
Sheila's point of viewIt was quite early at dawn before the sun came up that I went to see Thea in her dungeon. As soon as I stepped in, she lazily pulled her eyes open and her lucent brown eyes fell on me."I was expecting you. I knew you'd come to gloat," she sounded venomous, but her voice was still sharp. I thought by now she must have realized the serious trouble she was in, but it is obvious she hasn't.I countered the spell Valerie had placed in the dungeon, ensuring no magic could be used inside. But Thea's spelled shackles confining her to her chair were more than enough to keep her magic locked up. I turned to the door and muttered a few chants, making sure nothing that happens in here escapes this room. Not even an echo.I moved closer to her in my leather boots. I was just returning from the training field and I decided to meet Thea as Killian requested."I would love to, only you are not worth it, Thea," I said, I really didn't have the time for whatever mind games she w
Sheila's point of view"Kai!" I yelled in fear, at the fireballs scattered in the sky aiming for different parts of the pack. This was going to cause great destruction and deaths.I left Kai and turned for the door. I hurried out of the court, stepping into the night's darkness and blue sky as one of the fireballs headed for the witches' quarters.I used my magic and held its force, redirecting it back to where it was coming from.I glanced around. Some of the fireballs were redirected by the witches scattered around in the pack while some exploded against the earth, causing destruction.I turned to Kai. "Lucius has resources and we are clearly outnumbered. Help us, Kai, please. We need witches, warriors, and resources, otherwise, Lucius will win," I said, trying to convince my brother into helping the pack."Fuck it, Sheila," I could hear him curse under his breath. His deep loving hazel eyes fell on me, regarding me. "Stay with the witches, Sheila. I'll see what I can do."A small s
Killian's point of viewMy amber orbs gleamed a dangerous shade of red, my vision glowed red as well. I made full use of my wolf's side, plucking out the heads of Lucius's rogues and witches that attacked. My sharp elongated nails dripped with their disgusting thick crimson blood.I pulled out the heart of an idiotic rogue coming at me, my eyes flickered to Allen and Jax in a fight with rogues as well.My claws were dripping wet. I glanced around as my army fought against Lucius's army. It was already dead in the night, and the foul odor of blood and stench of death mixed with the midnight air.We've been fighting for quite some time but so far, there's been no sign of Lucius. I tried mind-linking Sheila, but it was not connecting. I was getting worried. I left in search of her. I knew she had to be at the witches' quarters, fighting alongside the witches, at least, that way, she would be able to use her magic.I was racing through the woods, my body and bare chest smeared with blood.
Killian's point of viewIt was already morning, and the sun appeared above the Eastern horizon. I moved past the bloody mess on the ground, scattered around the pack. Lifeless bodies of Lucius's army of both rogues and witches. More than half of his army was all dead, few escaped while a few were taken as prisoners.Lucius was dead. His death gave me great joy and satisfaction. Finally, he was able to pay for every damned wrong he did to Sheila.I felt a rush of calmness within me. We did not only win the war Lucius started, but we also managed to put an end to the terrible things that had been occurring in the pack, along with Thea.I left the castle and joined Morgan at the Packhouse where the warriors were disposing of the bodies."How are things going?" I turned to Morgan whose green eyes were already on me."The outcome is better than I had imagined. We lost a few warriors, while the wounded ones are being taken care of by the Pack's physician, and the witches," he voiced."I'll
Sheila's point of viewMy heart was jumping in my chest and suddenly, I couldn't breathe as his golden irises bored down at me with an indescribable emotion in his depth.I shot upright on my bed, my hair and body damp from sweat under my night dress. It was just a dream. I swallowed several deep breaths, placing my hand over my chest as I tried to calm my heavy panting. But I just couldn't. I couldn't even quell the vibrations from my body. I didn't know if it was from fear or confusion.It's been a long time since Lucius' abrupt war since I had one of these dreams. And that was almost three weeks ago. I had spelled my dreams and ensured whatever madness was going on in there stopped, and it did. Or at least I thought it did.I sighed, resting my elbows on my thighs while using my hands to rub my face. My heart and thought were in an uproar. I kept on swallowing some air, as my body vibrated more. I couldn't lie, for the first time in my life, I felt angst. Even Adie felt the same wa
Sheila's point of viewValerie's blue eyes became heated on me. "What are you saying?" She shifted from the shelf, giving me her full attention."The dreams started not long ago, and I thought I had put an end to it—" I started but Valerie cut me off."What do you mean by putting an end to it?" She asked, and I could feel the uneasiness in her entire aura, and earnestly it was affecting me."I spelled myself, stopping whatever madness that was, and for a while, it worked, but somehow it's back," I said, looking her in the eyes. "I had a dream about him again, and oh, Val, it felt so real," I confessed as the bad feeling in my chest grew more.Valerie placed two of her fingers against her temple. I could see the flash of fear in her eyes but she was trying desperately to hide it."Alright. Let's calm down, Sheila," she muttered, leading me away from the shelf, and back to her table. "How can you be sure it was the Dark Lord?" She asked, regarding me. "Firstly, it's not even possible. Y
