A loud slam of the door woke me up from my tumultuous dream. I bolted up in the bed and as soon as my eyes snapped open, l saw Damien barging into the room. His features appeared pinched and frazzled as he raced the breeze. The door swung closed after the force of being brutally shoved open.“Darling are you alright?”, He quickly approached the right side of the bed. “I’m fine what has happened?”, I rubbed the last traces of sleep from my eyes before blinking at him. Before he could answer, thunder I’mmediately rumbled outside and a gust of wind blew droplets of water into the room. “The house”, He paused and ran his hand through his hair.“The whole fucking house shuddered”, He went on. “Because of the storm?”, My eyes flickered to the open window. Damien followed my gaze then shook his head. “This wasn’t a storm, it was magic”, He responded and his words made my mind to recall the nightmare, l just had. “I think it was caused by me, I’m sorry”, Tears we’re already brimming in my eye
“You still need to rest darling”, Damien spoke as he finished buttoning his double breasted black coat. “Am fine, don’t worry about me”, l reached out and flattened his lapels before pressing a gentle kiss on his cheek. Though everything that happened last night were frightening, l was surprisingly feeling alright this afternoon.“It’s my responsibility….” “No Damien not this time, you have been requested to attend the rescheduled meeting this afternoon”, l cut him off in mid sentence.“If you had gotten up on time this morning, it wouldn’t have been rescheduled”, l slapped him on his chest. “You know l was occupied with something far more pressing”, He smirked mischievously. I blushed at his words. Even in the night of terror, he still didn’t keep his hands to himself and I couldn’t also stop him. “Snoring through sunrise isn’t reason enough to shrink your responsibilities”, l swatted him on the arm. “You more important…”, Just as he started , the door I’mmediately burst open. “Zar
Just as l was thoughtless, Zara's smiling face i'mmediately appeared in my view. "Zoey", Zara walked from a group of people then quickly stole me away from Damien. Just as Zara was dragging me away from Damien, out of the corner of my eyes , l noticed that his face i'mmediately turned blank and impassive probably not happy with me leaving his side."Ladies allow me introduce to you the new Luna of Blue Moon Pack, This is Zoey Martinez my sweetest in-law", Zara kept a tight hold on my arm as she brought me to the two noble women amidst Alpha Damien's visitors. Both the she wolves we're astoundingly beautiful. One of them was tall and slender.She was standing with a cold air and tense shoulders. She was looking down her nose at everyone in the room including me. I didn't know the pack she was coming from but she was proud of herself. The other one was small and curvy with a smile that inwardly warmed me. "The pleasure is mine, I am Valerie O'Shea from Black Stone Pack", The warmer shew
Meanwhile Damien turned his eyes and went on with talking to his fellow Alphas, l was left alone lost in my thoughts. The only thing l noticed was that both humans or werewolves, they all love to gossip.Through the evening, l was surrounded by different werewolves from different packs. They were planning for their most anticipated holiday of the year. Despite the fact that Alphas we’re worried, their subjects were excited. Winter solstice did sound like an amazing event in this strange world and l was increasingly excited to participate.Although I was still afraid, joining the werewolves wasn’t bad. Since this was the biggest pack, all the Werewolves from different packs came to celebrate the winter solstice and also talk about the government that was planning to kill them. The odd stares in my direction slowed and more than once , l heard more guests refer me as a human Luna who was blessed by the moon goddess.“She will be a good Luna, she managed to heal one of the servants”“I s
“What makes you think that am yours?”, That question abruptly fall out of my mouth but my breathing soon enough became heavy when Damien’s hand made it’s way closely to my throbbing core. My back arched and I leaned my head into Damien’s shoulder as his fingers slipped into my wet folds.“I would have accepted that at our first meeting but now I know it that you lying”, His words were accepted by his fingers pleasuring me while I ground my ass against his erection. “You right but then we can’t go on with this, you needed by your fellow Alphas”, l purred while breathing in gasps.“They are perhaps also busy in their guest rooms”, He didn’t slow down his fingers and he pressed into my clit harder and faster. “Anyway I know that some of them would be more happy to sneak in and at least have a view of you”, He went on but there was a hint of anger in his voice.“You… You heard their words?”, His hand elicited whimpers through my gasps while he tortured me and I struggled to speak. “I hear
“Let’s head out, am afraid of what rumors will spread”, l added. “I don’t care about what they say”, He all of the sudden took me in his arms and held me tight against his chest. A gasp slipped through my lips at the sudden movement. “You mine”, His darkened eyes held me in place with longing.“Let me go meet Zara”, l changed the topic after breaking the gaze. “Yeah, let me go meet some Alphas too”, He spoke then we walked out together. We parted ways as soon as we we’re out of the dining room. I slowly made my way to the room where music was coming from. There was no doubting, Zara was perhaps there with her friends. It wasn’t hard to find it, l could hear the loud chatter and laughter from the room over the sound of my heels that were clacking on the floor. I took a deep breath outside the door as the guard noticed me quickly and opened it quickly. The laughter I’mmediately died down when I entered and all those eyes fall on me. I felt a chill run down my spine at that instant. The
Heading towards the east section of the pack, l walked quickly but I only made a few corners before my rage, fear and nausea caught up to me. My limbs shook uncontrollably and my gut tightened up just before l stumbled over and spilled the entire contents of my stomach in the trash can that was in the corner.Quickly without thinking, l hurried up to the infirmary. There was no one in the infirmary , all the people were preparing for the winter solstice. Weak and tired, l stumbled over to the cupboard. I wanted ginger and chamomile right now, it was the tea l wanted to take. The kitchen was around but I didn’t want to go there and also there was a cooking stove in the infirmary.However before I could make myself tea, soon enough I heard noise in the darkness of the doorway. After what happened with Alex, fear raced down my spine and I quickly swirled around then looked in the darkness. It was shockingly no one but Damien. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw him walk forward. “Why
“Alpha Damien”, Leslee slutly called him and l struggled not to roll my eyes. “Would you like to join me for dinner?”, She batted her eyes and attempted a demure smile. Everything about her was like a wolf in a sheep’s clothing. With all the little details, Valerie had let slip about Leslee, the last few days, l knew it that her intentions with Damien weren’t as innocent as she wanted it to appear.Since she was the daughter of the Alpha, she thought high of herself and wanted to be the Luna of Blue Moon. She perhaps thought that she will be the mate of Damien but then the moon goddess ruined her plans. Seeing Leslee attempt to sway Damien into a private dinner made my stomach to churn but I acted like nothing was wrong with me.“Not tonight, l have to go meet your father and discuss about the preparations for the winter solstice”, His smile was tight and I knew it that he was uncomfortable. After inkling his head at her, he turned and walked out. As soon as he left, servants began sw
"No, no, no", Vandeer began shrieking and in front of my eyes, I saw her begin to rapidly age. Her skin wrinkled and her hair turned white before falling from her scalp. "Ahh!", She shrieked once more and black smoke poured from her mouth and shot out in my direction. The power of gods responded quickly and more of the blinding white fire spewed from my mouth.Black met white in the air and a Sonic boom sounded over the island as the two magical forces clashed. That blinding light flowing from the gods through me and against the necromancer was blinding hot. Even my vision blurred as this force left my mouth. It got hotter and stronger.The core of the light began turning a pale blue, showing that it was increasing in heat. Blue flames always are hotter than white and that pale blue was leaving my body and blasting against the darkness. Vandeer's shadows were stripped away and the blue flames devoured her aging body.It blasted through her and into the ground, pulverizing her aging sk
I held my breath as l watched Damien continue to race in the necromancer's direction, mindingless about the weapon the wicked necromancer had. When the dagger was in reach, Damien flung out his hand and slapped the danger away from her. Vandeer's face curled into a disgusting snarl but quickly Damien wrapped up his hands around her throat.One of her hands went to his wrists as he strangled her. Just as l watched, l realized late that her free hand was making unfamiliar signs. With a flick of her wrist, the smoke dagger that was flying away jerked to a halt and rerouted in the air until it was flying back in their direction."No", The scream left my lips too late.The dagger rocketed through the air with a sickening thud and lodged itself in Damien's back.Damien's body went still. His hands loosened from around Vandeer's throat and in that moment, a wide grin spread across her lips, peeling her lips back to reveal her grotesque teeth. I watched as Damien stumbled back from her with t
"Zoey l hate begging but if you need me to get down on my knees and plead with you to go then l will do it. I won't be able to focus on what is coming with you here", Damien's voice pulled me out of my reverie."But it's you who said that am your mate and as a Luna l should always be on your side. Why can't I stay with you right now?, ... I don't want to leave you, l know how weak the wolfsbane made you become", My voice cracked at the end and tears threatened to spill as l rested my head on Damien's chest, gripping him tighter as if he was my lifetime."You right Zoey. I know but am sorry. I don't want to put my babies lives in danger", His hands cradled my face and his thumb wiped away a stray tear on my cheek before lowering to trace my bottom chapped lip. "There's nothing to forgive", I stood on the tips to kiss him gently but he pushed our lips harder together in a passionate kiss that took my breath away."There are boats on the shore . For now l just want you to get away from t
Damien was here but his clothing was torn in some places from the crash but overall, he seemed perfectly alright and my heart soared. Heat coursed through my core at the sight of the absolute rage and fury etched across his face. His power and dominance radiated around him and the sight of his murderous intent directed at his evil brother made me want to fall in his arms.Damien was here. He had come for me , for us. My hand hovered over my stomach and in that moment some of the power of ice drifted away. That was enough for my head to clear of the powerful magic consuming my body and soul. The other half of my soul was here and just the sight of him slowly returned me to warmth.To light and love.He walked with determination in each stride as he trudged through the ice and snow in his path. Damien's strength in the face of magic powered storm was awe-inspiring and desire momentarily clouded my mind. He had a look of shock on his face. I had a feeling that he didn't believe that it w
My skin was crawling as the necromancer spoke of the past and the insanity that led to this situation. "My visions led me to you. After the bastards winning the war, those foolish Werewolves cast me aside. Even though they did that to me, l didn't stop helping them. I still had a thought that one of my best strong witches will be mated to one the feared Alphas but still the moon goddess chose you", This time she spat on the ground in front of me."You don't even know how to use magic, you're pathetic, you would have been dead but this sick bast....","Hey it's your fault, l tried my level best to get her out of the country", Brian pointed a shaking finger at Vandeer with a low growl. "Whatever. She is still alive", Vandeer waved off Brian's anger as she put the blame of their previously failed plan on him. "Missed opportunities lead to new ones, let's forget the past", The necromancer shrugged and crossed her arms before looking in my way again."Damien killed my mate and l won't hesi
ZOEY'S POV.We both turned out gaze to the door as it suddenly groaned under the weight of itself as someone pushed it open. "That will be her now", Brian stood from where he was hunched in front of me then went to greet the woman entering in the cell room. A slender woman with straight inky black hair swept into the room as if she moved with air.She adorned her body with a floor length black dress that cascaded around her legs. My eyes traveled up to the leather harness around her chest that resembled the shape of a pentagram and emphasized her breasts. She covered herself in several pieces of jewelry that varied with different colored stones and minerals that held each their own magical glow.I looked up at her face, thinking that she was perhaps beautiful just like the outfit she had dressed up but hell no l was wrong. She was hardly more than a skeleton clinging to it's translucent flesh.But her eyes were the worst. There was no white in her eyes, only darkness like a swirling p
ZOEY'S POV."What do you want from me?", My voice left me almost inaudible as l questioned Brian. It was now three days ever since he captured me. My last conversation with him left me annoyed and l cursed as he walked out of my cell. Throughout the days, I was fed like a prisoner and l didn't hear anything from Zara, whenever I asked Brian he only laughed.I knew it in my heart that wherever Zara was, she was fighting hard to escape and look for me."What do you want from me Brian?, Why did you abduct me?", I asked again. This time he narrowed his eyes and that darkness inside of him made me fearful of the answer. "I thought you know it already", He hissed it in my face."I just your powers","My powers?", My eyes narrowed at him and I shook my head in disbelief. He abducted me all because he wanted the powers their moon goddess gave me. "Magic is really wonderful, didn't you feel happy when you realized that you the only Luna who was blessed with healing powers?", He asked."No", l
DAMIEN'S POV."Zoey has been taken away, let me go look for her"Zara's words echoed again in my head as l regained my conscience. As expected l was still in the cold cell. Those are the only words that kept sounding in my head ever since l was attacked - together with the Alphas of the different packs.Getting captured was something I was still finding unbelievable but the reality of damp cell fliters kept reminding me that, I was in the cell that had thick doors with wolfsbane on them. The hunters attacked us mysteriously, they didn't give us a chance to fight and currently both my wrists and ankles were chained up to the cement wall behind my back just like the others.The constant injections of wolfsbane and silver were keeping me weak and unable to break the metal chains that had trapped me for a week. Ever since we were captured, every day scientists come in and draw blood. They were experimenting on us. They captured all supernatural creatures.I didn't understand my role in he
Getting out of the building was successful for a while however just as we were turning around the corner, a gloved hand all of the sudden clamped hard on my upper arm and squeezed tight. I turned to Zara's direction but she was also being caught. She tried to scream but a gloved hand clamped around her mouth just like me.The gloves smelled like dirty leather. Oh! God, l was again abducted. This was heart breaking, l was just from fighting for my life and here l was again abducted.That wasn't enough before we could react, I watched with my blurry eyes as they jammed the needles into our necks. My last thoughts were that whatever was jammed in my neck didn't hurt my babies. Many people were after my babies. Miscarriages and being abducted was all l was fated to.***There was no way in hell l could tell how much time had passed when the fog cleared from my brain. My head was pounding as if a thousand horses were galloping through it and my throat was dry as if I hadn't had a drink in
