The Alpha's Curse Chapter 45: Proof, I'm Yours
Waverly was unable to comprehend everything she had discovered. She looked around her to see where she was and realized just how far into the forest she had really gone. The trees covered the sky, but the sun peeked out from behind a branch, enough that she could regain her sense of direction. She turned around and headed from where she came. She had to get to the mansion and tell Sawyer—no matter how scared she was to see him and regardless of their feelings for one another, he needed to know. Waverly launched forward and landed in the clearing where she started at the edge of the forest. She then made a sharp turn and followed the tree line to Trinity Mountains. The air burned her eyes as she sailed ahead, but she didn't care—if Christopher was behind everything and was working with Matteus, she had to get to Sawyer, and fast. She didn't know what it had to do with the Lunar Eclipse; she was only certain that it was something bigger than anyone could have imagined. As the mansi

Sawyer's eyes fell to the document again. He looked as if he was processing everything that she had told him. It was a lot for her to take in, she couldn't imagine what it was like for him. "Sawyer?" Waverly asked after a few minutes of silence. "Just give me a minute," he said, raising his hand. He kept still; his eyebrows were wrinkled as he concentrated on a spot on the table. Then, he lifted his gaze to meet hers; they were pained and for the first time, he had realized that she could be on to something. "Are you okay?" she questioned, stepping closer to him. "I—" he let out a sigh. Waverly reached out and put a hand over his across the table, and he didn't pull back. Her thumb rubbed the back of his hand, tenderly and instead of rejecting her, he put his other hand on top of hers. "I'm sorry," she said, looking back into his eyes. "For what?" "For…well, for a lot. This—but also a few nights ago. I didn't mean to go against your word…I really thought I would be safe

Waverly perceived herself in the mirror that hung over the vanity in her bedroom. She ran her hands down the long, flowing baby blue dress that accentuated her auburn hair, which was done in loose curls. She grabbed a pin off of the table and clipped back both sides of her hair and then adjusted it with her fingers. On the tabletop, sat the box of jewels Sawyer had given to her not long after she came to the mansion and if any time was an appropriate time to wear them, it was tonight. She bent over and opened the lid, the jewels glistening in the sunlight. Waverly grabbed the pearl necklace that sat on top and clasped it around her neck, letting her fingers slide across them once they were done up. To think, the last time these were worn, they were on the neck of Sawyer's mother and now, she couldn't be prouder than to wear them on such a momentous evening. Waverly gave herself one last look over before heading out the door and towards the entry. At the exact same time, she saw Saw

Waverly couldn't tell where she was anymore. She felt like she was floating in mid-air in some other world. Looking in front of her, she saw the shadow man. His light-grey figure allowed her to see some features from a distance, such as his tall frame and distinct jaw. He started walking towards her and the closer he got, the more in focus he became until he was clear. It was Sawyer. Her eyes shot open and she looked to the sky. The sun was past the moon and down behind the mountains with the stars now lighting up the evening sky. Waverly cast her eyes to her hand, which was left dangling alone. Horrified, she tossed her gaze upwards and saw Sawyer standing there, in all of his perfection, turning his hands inside and out in amazement. He faced her and both of them stood still, looking at each other wide-eyed. "It…"Was this a dream? Soon, she was going to wake up in her bed in Boulder Creek, and the past day would be just a wishful fantasy. She watched as a green-like mist swirle

Both Sawyer and Waverly looked in all directions. Wolves entered from the bushes and trees, creeping towards them, their eyes glowing in the moonlight. They were fenced in. Everything seemed to move in slow motion as Waverly caught the stare of the black wolf who she had fought not long ago: Matteus. He shot her a wink with his bright green eyes and then, almost instantly, all of the wolves charged. Waverly let go and let her wolf form take full control, growling as soon as her paws hit the ground. A wolf she didn't recognize lunged for the others, who were still unchanged, and attacked, knocking them down and freeing Christopher. Christopher devilishly smiled and switched, becoming the animal version of himself. His teeth were exposed and he immediately locked eyes with Sawyer. Christopher raced forward, meeting Sawyer, who had also transformed, in the middle. All around her, fights had ensued and as one wolf charged her, Waverly stood on her hind legs, swiping the animal directly

After the Lunar Eclipse, Waverly stopped seeing the shadow man. Instead of in her dreams, he now appeared to her in real-life, in the form of her mate, Sawyer Einar. Except every now and then, she would still sketch the mysterious figure, who began more as a silhouette and now, resembled a darkened, black mass. Waverly sat in the chair by the window, just as she had done when she arrived at Trinity Mountains over seven months ago, only now, she was in the art room that Sawyer had commissioned for her. Her reflection bounced off the glass standing between her the town below, which was exploding with wolves and people alike. She focused on her sketch, which was unlike anything she had drawn before—the mass was the same in shape and size, but in the centre, she had traced two eyes that blended with the colour of the form they shared, as well as stood out, like they were staring back at her. The opening of the door startled her, and Waverly jumped slightly in her spot. "Sorry to star

Everything was still. For the past year, there were no sightings of Christopher and things had returned to how they used to be: normal. The sun beat down through the glass windows of Tillbury's, casting a direct spotlight against the freshly painted wall. Sawyer set down his roller and wiped his forehead with the back of his hand before smearing it onto his jeans."Ya know I run a restaurant, right?" said Darren, reaching into his back pocket. His clothes were covered in teal paint and his temples dripped of sweat. "I have tons of these guys lyin' around." He flipped a cloth from behind his back and handed it to Sawyer.Sawyer extended his hand and took the cloth from Darren, running it across his forehead. "Well, if you got the air conditioner fixed, we wouldn't be dying from heat stroke." Darren waved his hand, dismissing Sawyer's comments. "We'll deal with that once the renovations are done. Now pick up your roller and get to workin'." Sawyer handed the cloth back to Darren,

Waverly struggled to maintain her balance as she regained control of her vision. She gripped the wall beside her and heard the clinking of the metal tray on the ground before feeling the pressure of Felicity's hand on her arm. "Miss, are you alright?" The spots that obscured her sight slowly vanished and Waverly blinked hard to regain consciousness. "Yeah, I think so," she replied, still slightly off balance. "I just had a weird headache. I must've been pushing myself too hard in the office." She looked at Felicity, who's eyes were wide with concern. "It's okay, I'm alright. Thanks," she reassured her. Felicity slowly let go of Waverly's arm and bent down to pick up her tray, which she had set beside her on the ground. "Why don't we get you seated? I guess it's a good thing I brought tea." Felicity guided Waverly to a spot on the couch overlooking the mountains. Waverly took a hold of the teacup Felicity handed her and felt the heat touch her lips as she took a sip. And almos

The Alpha's Curse Chapter 100: Closure
Waverly stared down at Christopher's motionless body. It was over—all of it. She turned to Sawyer, who was now in human form, and was standing over Christopher. He was breathing heavily and held his chest wound with his hand, but with his other free hand, closed Christopher's eyes and whispered: "Until we meet again." He then backed away from the body and turned to his pack, who were watching the moment unfold. "Alright. Everyone who is able, let's get the injured inside to entry and cared for. Then, we can go from there."The pack all bowed their heads at the same time and began helping one another up, one at a time, carrying any wounded individuals indoors. Waverly put her arm underneath Sawyer's and used her body to support his weight, aiding him in walking back to the house. Once inside, she set him down on a chair and grabbed the first aid kit out of the living room before beginning to address his wound. Sawyer flinched at the touch of the alcohol against the cut on his chest
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 99: The End to All Ends
Waverly watched as the pack stepped out onto the gravel. To say the atmosphere was tense would've been an understatement: it was downright hostile. She stared as one by one, they transformed and launched themselves forward, starting the battle for Sawyer's life. Faintly in the background, she could hear Christopher screaming for his pack to ready themselves and not long after, the sound of snarling and bodies being thrown against the house began. She looked to her right to see Katia come up beside her, flash her a smirk, and then leapt out of the door, shifting in an instant. Waverly shrunk back into the house. What was she going to do? She couldn't fight as a human—she'd die. But she couldn't stay here either. Sawyer needed her; what kind of Luna would she be if she didn't defend her Alpha and her pack when they needed her the most? She took a deep breath and focused her energy on shifting, trying to feel herself transforming…And nothing. She shook it off and tried again, but on
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 98: The Final Battle
Waverly felt as though the world had been ripped out from under her. He was there, in the flesh; his gap teeth exposing themselves as he grinned. "Waverly?" Sawyer said questioningly. "What are you doing here?" His gaze flickered up to the cuts on her cheek and the dried blood trail on her face, prompting him to rush over to her and examine her. "What happened? Are you okay?" Instinctively, he reached for her stomach, but Waverly stopped him. "I'm alright," she replied. She then corrected herself. "We're alright." Sawyer's eyes widened and then he looked at her, intensely. "You—" Waverly nodded, and Sawyer hugged her tightly, beaming. "I'm so sorry I missed it—but your cuts…how?"Waverly looked to Christopher, who sat still, grinning mockingly. Her face hardened. "I ran into his friend." "What friend?" Christopher chuckled to himself, causing Sawyer to spring at him, taking a strong hold of his ripped and bloodied shirt. "What friend?!" he yelled in a deep, husk voice. "The
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 97: Unvieling
Waverly closed her eyes the second she saw Felicity open her mouth, but because of her sharp senses, she could hear every single sound as Felicity finished the job. When she opened them again, Felicity had transformed back into her human formation, and was standing over the body of the siren. Not even a second later, Mia's frame changed back as well and in front of them, instead of a siren, laid a woman, who's blue eyes were glazed completely over. Felicity was still and her hands shook while she stared at the body; her eyes were wide and blood dripped from her mouth. "I—I didn't know what do to…I just…acted on instinct." "Well, your instinct was obviously correct. How did you know?""I—I didn't. I just thought…she was really annoying me." Waverly chuckled. She wasn't wrong; the siren did talk a lot.Felicity turned her gaze to Waverly and she looked at her, amazed. "Miss, your face…"Waverly wiped where her nosed was bleeding prior. "I know. I can feel it," she said, half-j
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 96: Fight to the Finish
It all happened so fast—everything was a blur as Waverly raced forward, attacking Mia with all the pent-up anger and aggression she had felt not only for herself, but Sawyer, Pietro, and Darren. They were behind it all: the burning of Tillbury's, Pietro's death…Darren. Her arms swung in front of her while she moved to deliver a blow. She knew it wouldn't kill her, but it might just be enough to wound her so she could buy more time. Except when she was inches from her target, Mia stepped to the side, causing Waverly to almost fall forward."Now come on, let's be a little realistic here. You just gave birth. Do you really think you can really take me on right now?" Waverly looked at her, breathlessly. She knew she had a very slim chance of succeeding, but she still had to try. If not for herself, for Sawyer and her son. She built up her strength and then, once again, leapt towards the siren, hoping to catch her off guard.But it was like she knew it was coming. Once again, Mia dodg

Waverly held her baby tight to her chest while he continued to snore the night away. "You," she said in utter shock. "You're—" Mia laughed. "You still think you're hallucinating, huh? Well, let me ruin the suspense for you. Surprise, love. I'm here, flesh and bone." "H-how…? This place is remote…Sawyer said…""Sawyer said, Sawyer said. Listen here," Mia said as she walked towards Waverly; her heels clicking against the flooring. "We need to have a small girl-to-girl chat. This reliance on Sawyer is tiresome. You need to be independent and stand up for yourself." "Is that why you kill the men you enchant?" Waverly asked, forcing the strength to rise from the pit of her stomach to show some sort of dominance. "Precisely," Mia stated enthusiastically, pointing a finger in Waverly's direction. "I'm glad you've finally heard about me." "I've heard more than enough," Waverly retorted, cradling her son closer as Mia approached. "Is that the baby—?" she asked, narrowing her eyes
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 94: A New Crimson
"What?!" Waverly shouted. Having her baby—now?! No, no way this was happening. This had to be a dream. Only when a long-lasting pain pushed through, she knew it wasn't. "But how—" she said between broken breaths. "It's not time! I'm too early!" Felicity took a deep breath and centered herself. She knew Waverly wasn't wrong. "Unfortunately, it is time, miss. But thank goodness you're a wolf and the baby's large enough to survive." Somehow, this didn't bring Waverly any comfort. A severe pang ripped at her insides, feeling as if it was tearing her apart. "Sawyer!" she suddenly shouted. "He's not—he's not here. I can't do this without him here!" "I'm sorry, miss, but you might have to if he isn't here within the next few minutes." "I—" Waverly's speech was instantly cut off by her shrieks. "I have to help you move," Felicity stated. "We need to get you to a flat surface and the bed is too high." She left the common area and emerged from the bedroom carrying two pillows. Felicity
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 93: Painful Revelations
While the day trickled into night, Waverly became increasingly nervous. She sat folded up on the couch with a hot drink, checking out of the window every few seconds to see if she could get a glimpse of Sawyer as he returned home. The cup clinked against her nails as she moved for the third time, but when she didn't see his silhouette, she slunk back down. "He'll be here soon, miss," Felicity stated as she continued washing the dishes from their late-night dinner. "I'm sure he just got tied up helping Katia with some things. It's her first time running the institute, you know." Waverly looked to her. "Really? I thought with her experience, she would've taken over when Sawyer was…cursed." The longer she waited, the more distasteful the word was in her mouth. "With her personality, it comes off that way, doesn't it? But no. Mr. Sawyer put in a lot of the work while she delivered messages. Speaking of, have you tried calling him?""Twice. It's just going to voicemail," Waverly repl
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 92: Hello Again
"Welcome home, brother," Christopher said manically. Sawyer treaded forward and Christopher instantly moved the knife by Katia's throat. "Don't," he said sternly, changing from friendly to cold in an instant. Sawyer halted and looked to Katia. Her makeup was running from the tears that she had shed, but she showed no fear. He glanced around the house for any sign of help, but no one was coming."Don't bother looking for anyone—they're all…a little unconscious.""What are you doing here?" Sawyer sneered, baring his teeth. It was taking everything within him to not attack. "Can't a man come visit his long-lost best friend? It's been what—a year now? Wow, time does fly, doesn't it?" Christopher grinned and his gap teeth revealed themselves. A chill went through Sawyer. This wasn't the same Christopher he had known his entire life, or the same Christopher that he had banished last year. This man was entirely different and more sinister. His usually neat curls were more wild an
