Killian's point of view"What?!"Sheila. The gifted one?"What are you saying, Valerie?" I muttered, leaning on the table that stood between me and her. "How can my mate be the gifted one?""I know how that sounds, but it's not entirely impossible," Valerie said, turning to everyone. "We all can agree that tonight we've seen things that are impossible happen.""Yeah, starting with what happened to me, Ria, and the warriors," Allen said, and my gaze darted to Valerie.Before I could ask the questions in my chest, Morgan beat me to it. "Was Sheila responsible for that?"Everyone's curious gaze darted to Valerie, who was silent for brief seconds. "No," she said quietly, "Luna has nothing to do with that," she added."Why do you think —" I began but she sliced through my words."The blood rage, it was her presence that broke you out of the blood moon's effect," Valerie muttered, "I know exactly how it sounds, that's why as soon as she regains consciousness, I'll find out if she's truly th
Leonardo Black's point of view"That was stupid, Leonardo." Kaiser huffed. "We had her right here in her own home after fourteen long years, and we allowed her to leave, just like that, with those fucking assholes," he could not just stop pacing. "They even have a fucking curse on their fucking heads. What if she's also affected by being in that pack?" He yelled, still upset. I remained silent, devouring my dinner in the private dining room next to my chamber.He has been this way since Killian left with Sheila in his arms. He didn't like that. He wanted us to have fought to keep her here with us. And if we did, what would have happened after that?The whole world will get to know Sheila was our sister, the white wolf written about on the crystal stones. Soon, it won't be long before the Dark Circle sends their henchmen after her, and thereafter, creatures the world had never seen or heard of will come after her because of her powerful magic.Even though I felt enraged as well, lettin
THE WEST TOWER IN THE DARK PALACE, SOMEWHERE IN THE EAST CENTRAL."Hmmm," I moaned, settling deep into the hot water that covered my skin. I felt the steam seeping into my bones and I loved it. I love the warmth that covered my massive chamber, and the blue candlelight that was lit in every corner of the room was seductive. My golden eyes squinted, watching the beautiful woman that lay half-naked on my bed, she was regarding me seductively from the bed. Her stares made my member harden the more.In my six hundred years of existence, no one had made me feel this way, this alive. She was mine to have and to keep. I watched her move from the bed, placing her slender legs on the ground. She knew exactly what she was doing to me, and I couldn't help but smirk darkly.Slowly, she pulled from the bed, taking careful steps towards the tub. Her long brown hair cascaded down her shoulders, covering her face as usual. She only had a transparent sleeveless dress on her, which barely covered anyt
Killian's point of viewI dismissed the meeting, leaving with everyone. To my surprise, I had forgotten to close the general link between the pack and me, and now the entire pack knows everything. They were aware of the situation that Thea wasn't the gifted one, and that Sheila could be the one we had been searching for. I moved in a hurry back to my chamber where Sheila was. Brielle was with her, and as soon as she saw me, she lowered her head."How is she?" I asked her, moving to the bed."Still the same, Alpha. But I think she's in pain, and her body is still fucking hot." Brielle said and I nodded to her words.After some time, she left my chamber, leaving me alone with my mate. I snuck into bed, laying right next to her. My large hand fell on her soft round face, and Brielle was right. Sheila's temperature was rising every second.I cradled her softly into my arms, stroking her brown hair. She looked so fragile. I couldn't stop the tears that rushed from my eyes. This was all my
Sheila's point of viewArrgghh!I groaned internally in pain. I felt sore all over and there was a murderous ache in my head that kept pounding mercilessly, and tirelessly in my skull.My whole body felt like it was in flames, I could feel the enormous surge of magic that flowed within me. It was very familiar."Sweetheart," I heard a familiar, yet foreign voice call out to me. "Wake up," a warm hand touched my body, "It's time to wake up," the voice sounded again, more urgently.Reluctantly, I tried to pull my eyes open but I failed as soon as another ache banged against my skull. It was getting worse and more painful. I could feel the unsettledness within me."Sweetheart, wake up." The voice sounded again, encouraging me to break free once more.I groaned again and using all my strength, I pulled my eyes open. Everywhere was bright. So bright that I squinted my eyes, but still I couldn't see anything. All I could make out were distinct voices, near echoes, and some familiar whispers
Sheila's point of viewI stood frozen, unmoving as my gaze stared at the name written boldly on the castle walls.The Black Blood Pack.Confusion hit me harder. Why was I here?Nothing made sense. Now more than ever, I needed to know exactly what was going on. I was so fucking curious to find out who truly these people were, and why wasn't the man whom I have always known as my father, not in the picture.The blue flames around me died instantly, I walked through the castle doors. I found myself in the large main room. My head turned right as loud noises echoed from there. I began to move through the golden hallways. The more steps I took, I saw several of my younger self racing through the hallways.I felt a piercing ache as I remembered memories of myself racing through these hallways. Soon, I reached the large dining court. It was filled with so many people. They were members of the pack, all having dinner around several tables.I moved closer to where my younger self was seated.
Sheila's point of view"Sister?"The words echoed loudly in my ears, I could feel my insides become still. The cold that feasted on my bare feet traveled through my bones to my chest. I held my breath, as my body began to swerve around slowly.I turned around, and immediately, I was welcomed by those piercing deep blue eyes that were identical to mine. I couldn’t push back the tears that formed at once just staring at the deep crystals of my older brother, Leonardo.My lips trembled against each other."Sheila," he said in a low tone, as his eyes regarded me cautiously in disbelief, and maybe confusion.I abandoned the traitorous words that failed to leave my lips, and without holding back, I pushed my legs in motion and closed the lonesome gap between us.I raced into his arms, clutching my arms around his neck. It took him a second before I felt his warm hands envelop me."Brother," I broke down in tears as the word left my lips.Leonardo held me tightly, almost molding me against h
Sheila's point of viewI couldn't breathe properly, and the vibrations were only getting worse."Get away from her, you two. This is your fault, Kai," Denise made her way to me, pulling me into her arms. She began rubbing circles on my back, whatever she was doing was really helping. Soon, I felt myself calming down, and the vibrations from the earth stopped.I pulled away from her, "Thanks,""I am sorry, I didn't mean to upset you," Kai was by my side. I couldn't blame him. He had lived these years remembering that night, and the tragedy that befell us, while I had forgotten."We need to ensure more control of your magic, after what happened tonight, the Dark Circle will be after you, again," Leonardo said, and I nodded with him in agreement. I needed to put a leash on this uncontrollable energy within me. Mother had always been worried about this, but she always believed I was strong to control my magic, even at a young age."But how?" I asked, "There is no way I can do this alone."
