I woke up the next morning with Vincent still sleeping beside me. I stared at his sleeping face. He looked so peaceful when he slept, and I noticed how tired he also looked. I touched his face, moving my hands over his stubble before running my hands through his silky hair.Deciding not to wake him up, I walked to the bathroom. After taking a bath, and dressing up, I left the room. I wanted to make breakfast for him. It would be nice to treat him to breakfast in bed.I know he was really having a difficult time, it wasn't easy to run the pack, and also deal with office work, and now he has to be there for Scarlet who is so clingy, it is actually surprising that Scarlet had let him leave her.I was heading towards the stairs and saw Scarlet standing there with a smirk.It was going to be hard to avoid her when we were living in the same house. I never intended to even have a chat with her, not after what happened yesterday.I tried to ignore her and was about to descend the stairs when
It has been two weeks since Scarlet had fallen down the stairs. She was quick to recover from her fake fall and I tried my best to avoid her.Vincent said they were trying to figure out who was behind this, I had to try and act natural in front of Scarlet.I have been going to work, which made it easier to avoid her, but today I was off from work and have been in my room knowing that when I leave, there is a high probability I will bump into Scarlet.I have been in the room all day and Vincent wasn't back yet.I just finished reading a book I had taken from Vincent's library, and I wanted to take another one, the boredom was killing me.I got up from the couch and walked towards the door, opening it slowly, I peeped outside trying to check if I would see Scarlet anywhere, heaving a sigh of relief, I crept out of the room and walked quietly into the library.I entered the library and shivered, the room was so cold as though it was below ten degrees.The library was dimly lit and I wrap
Vincent took me back to the room, I was still shaking not yet over what I had seen in the library, and my head still hurt."You are so cold" Vincent pulled his shirt, before getting in bed with me and pulling me close.My back was facing his bare chest, as he wrapped his hand around me and held my hands as he threw the covers over our bodies, rubbing our palms together.He felt so warm so I snuggled close to him, my back pressing against him."Do you want to talk about what happened"I tried again to tell him, but I couldn't, I was still hit with the same pain from earlier, I could not tell him. An idea suddenly struck me, and I turned to look at Vincent."Why don't you read my mind," I told him, knowing that is the only way he could find out about what had happened in the library.He stared at me for some time, and then his expression became puzzled "I can't hear your thoughts""How is that even possible, I thought you are able to"" Maybe you are blocking me out"" I am not, and is
She gasped for air as Vincent tightened his grip on her neck. I noticed he brought out his claws and dug them into her neck as blood dripped, flowing down her neckI felt a tap on my shoulder, and I saw Cyrus."Are you okay"I nodded, but he took my bleeding hand before wrapping.it with a cloth to stop the bleeding.I thanked him, before turning back to Vincent whose hand was still around Scarlet's neck, who was pressed against the wall."That was really naughty of you, but you shouldn't have hurt yourself"I turned to him, shocked that he knew."You know""And so does Vincent,""Then why is he acting like Scarlet really did it""He knows this is what you wanted, and you would not have done it for some petty reason," Cyrus said "he never wants to see you hurt, even if you hurt yourself, and he knows it was because of whoever this person really is"I wanted to tell Cyrus I knew who the person was, but I stopped remembering the pain I had felt when I had tried to tell Vincent.We both l
I wouldn't have listened to the voice in my head telling me to eavesdrop on their conversation, I would have just stayed in my room and waited patiently for him to come back and tell me himself, now I have gotten myself into a very awkward situation.I had forgotten that Vincent was a Lycan, and he could easily sense my presence.I raised my head slowly to look at him and he raised his brow, giving me a questioning look, his red eyes staring into mineI stood up properly and I stepped back, I needed to come up with an excuse as to why I was caught close to the door."I … wanted to … ask you something" I stuttered trying to make my lie convincing."And what is that?" he stared at me waiting for the excuse I had come up with."My hair" I immediately blurted out.I could also feel Cyrus staring at me, I mentally cursed, knowing that I did not have a reasonable cause as to why I was standing."I mean … you see I wanted to wash my hair, but my wrist hurt" I showed him the wrist he had band
Have you had that feeling, or wished you could have control of your dreams, but can't, well I have and it happens a lot of the time.Once a year, I keep having the same dream repeatedly, it always happens and I could not control it. I had never really looked forward to sleeping on that day, knowing that the dream I was going to have is predictable.DeathDeath was one thing I could not run away from, it's the one thing I could not stop dreaming about, it's the one thing I wished I could stop dreaming about.Everyone sleeps and dreams about sunny days filled with rainbows and butterflies but my dreams were always dark.Everyone has their special day, but that special day to me is like a day I hoped never to exist.It was the one day I got too close to death, and I got to see death.I had hoped that since I had Vincent, having these repeated dreams won't happen, I had hoped that it would be special just like everyone else, but I was wrong.Tanya was right, death is always around me. I d
I had planned to stay indoors, it was my normal routine every year, but this year was different because I had someone special with me.On my birthdays, I only stay indoors, and most times Louis and Kayla stay with me so I wouldn't feel alone, but we never did any celebration, not after what had happened when I was sixteen.I had killed someone on my birthday and I was left with that trauma. My birthdays keep reminding me of that same day. Vincent was driving the car with his left hand on the wheel, and his right hand was entwined with mine.I was wondering where we were heading as I stared ahead at the road."We are going to have breakfast," he replied my thoughts.The car pulled up in front of the pack house, and I wondered why we were having breakfast at the pack house instead of the castle.Vincent alighted from the car and opened the door to help me step out of the car.He held my hand as he led me away from the car and I noticed we were not headed to the park house but we were g
I opened my eyes and noticed I was in Vincent's arms and he was walking towards a car, it seemed we had arrived at where Vincent was taking me."You are awake" I hummed softly in response as I snuggled into him.He took me into the car and I was surprised to see Falcon, it seems he had followed us also"Where are we?" I asked as the engines revved."We are almost there" that was his reply which didn't answer my question, and it seems he would not tell me, until we get thereI looked through the window as we passed different houses. I tried to figure out where Vincent was taking me because I could not tell what he was thinking.' it's a surprise ' I heard his voice in my head, I was startled and turned to me"How did you do that""You can also hear my thoughts, " he replied, which made me confused." Really "' yes' I heard his voice in my head again"But why can't I hear your thoughts every time""It's because I blocked it, that's why you can't""Does it also mean that I can stop you
They say soulmates were destined to be with you, and even after being reborn I still had my soulmate and although we faced many obstacles, betrayal, war, and death, we were still together and also in our next life.Vincent rubbed my protruding belly as I lay on the bed.“What do you think we should name them?” Vincent asked. We had found out that we were going to be having twins, a boy, and a girl.“Cyrus wanted us to name them Cyril and Cyrus”“There is no way in hell would I be naming my kids after him”“I think is a nice name though”“Cyrus” Vincent and I chorused at the same time, seeing that Cyrus had just appeared in the room.Vincent threw a pillow at him and he was quick to evade it.“Get out Cyrus” “I am excited, I am becoming an uncle soon”Vincent threw the lamp at Cyrus which he barely missed.“You don’t need to keep chasing me out, I will leave, but when Cyril and Cyrus come, I will tell them how bad you treat their uncle”“Cyrus” “Okay, I am leaving, but first I need t
What Dartron said had left everyone in shock, no one was expecting the Grydens to attack us now, it seems their aim was a surprise attack.We were currently in Vincent’s study, and his mood seems to have changed hearing what Dartron had said.We were seated at a round table with everyone present, and I was sitting on Vincent.Vincent had been holding me since he saw Dartron, and he seems more possessive since I woke up“Why are you helping us,” Vincent asked, he was still suspicious about Dartron and I think everyone felt the same.Their eyes were all Dartron, watching his every movement.“I just want this war to end, Although our grandfather did some barbaric things, I hate to admit that he was a better ruler than Thanos,” Dartron said leaning back on his chair. “Thanos had always wanted to get rid of our grandfather, but you already did, and now his goal is to eradicate all werewolves, and I am not in support of it”Hearing that Thanos wants to eradicate the wolves, everyone turned
RILEYI felt like I had been pricked with several needles. I felt a cold towel on my forehead, which surprisingly made me feel warm.I opened my eyes, squinting to get used to the light in the room.I groaned as I felt the towel being lifted from my head, turning my head to see who had removed it, my heart suddenly felt warm seeing Vincent who immediately smiled.“You are awake”I nodded trying to sit up and he helped me, raising the pillow to the headboard.“How are you feeling,” he asked as his hands held mine.“Like I have been through hell”“I was really worried” he brought my hands to his lips.“What happened,” I asked touching my throbbing head.“Don’t you remember, you set the….” He suddenly stopped. “You should not be thinking about that now, everything is okay, he reassured me”Then it suddenly hit me, everything that happened before I passed out started coming to me.I was so enraged seeing that Louis died that I burnt the forest with everyone in it.Tears suddenly filled my
The fight lasted for hours, he was good but I did not want to end his life immediately, I wanted to make him suffer before death.He looked like he was going to pass out any minute from now, but given how proud he is he kept on attacking me.He ran to me and in a flash clawed at my chest, tearing through my shirt. I was able to miss his attack, and his claw had a little contact with my skin.He smirked knowing he got it, he was about to strike me again, but I held his hand.Feeling annoyed, I twisted his hand, breaking his bones and disconnecting his hand from his shoulder.He screamed as he stepped away from me, clutching his bleeding shoulder.“You want to kill your old man” “Ending your life is enough sympathy from me”I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my chest, but it wasn’t mine, it was ……The door suddenly flew open“Alpha” I turned to the door to see one of the pack warriors, he had a frightened look on his face, which only made my assumption right that something was wrong.“It’
VINCENTAfter returning from our search for the last seal, Cyrus and I discovered that the last seal, the seal of Mene, was with the last descendant of the Isdreal, who was surprisingly Kayla.We never had expected that she was from Isdreal, nor did we know that she was with the seal, and I don't think she knew either.We headed to Cyrus’ house, and I was surprised to see Max sprawled on the couch. He was supposed to be with Riley.I approached him wondering where Riley was, but I stopped, noticing the empty cup on the table.Cyrus picked up the cup and sniffed it.“He was drugged”I took the cup from him and he was right Max was drugged, but he drugged him.As if on cue, Kayla came into the room.She had a shocked look on her face, noticing the cup in my hands, her eyes widened and I could sense her fear.“I can explain” she immediately said“Where is Riley” I growled at herShe stepped back in fear, intimidated.I walked towards her, but Cyrus came between us and placed his hand on m
RILEYWhile in the underworld cell, I was scared that I would not be able to save him because all my nightmares always become a reality.I ran out of the room after Tanya finally realized why I was in a hurry to leave. I could hear her footsteps behind me, it was obvious that she was following me.We came out of the pack house and noticed that they were carrying some injured pack warriors into the pack house.It seems the fight was happening in the woods, the ferocious howls and growls could be heard clearly, my heart raced as I ran towards the woods to where the pack warriors were trying to hold off the Grydens.I felt a tear slip from my eyes as I realized it was all my fault, if I had not captured their king, we would not be attacked by the Grydens. I could hear Tanya call after me but I did not want to stop, finding Louis was my top priority and I prayed silently that he was still safe.“Louis” I screamed his name as I reduced my pace.I heard a growl from behind me, I turned imme
TANYAAfter checking everyone at the pack house, and making sure no one was controlled by Morpheus, I decided to begin with Riley’s plan.Going to an empty room, I made a circle on the floor, it was like a barrier that prevents anyone that is in from getting out.This circle was linked with the first teleportation stone I had given Riley. If she succeeds in giving the stone to the Gryden king, he will teleport here when I start the spell.I hoped she would be able to make it work.I had just finished creating the barrier when I heard a knock on the door.Riley had told me to keep this a secret, and I did not want anyone entering the room and figuring out what I was up to.walking towards the door, I opened it before stepping out.I saw one of the pack warriors standing in front of the door.“The delta wants to see you” I could hear the urgency in his tone.Making sure the room was closed, I followed him to meet the delta.He led me to the underground prison in the pack house, and I won
I walked out of the room and met the two guards who I saw before I had entered the room.“The king says he does not want to be disturbed,” I told them and they gave me a strange look.I know they don't believe me, so I showed them the small rod he had given me.“Can you please show me the direction to leave this place, as you can see, he permitted it” They looked at each other, before turning back to me and giving me directions on how to leave.“Thank you” I smiled at them before walking off.I just need to leave here, before they find out that their king was missing, and I also needed to avoid Vincent’s brothers, I don't need them questioning me.As I walked through the hallways, I passed some Grydens who ignored me after seeing the rod in my hand.Feeling relieved that I would not be caught because I was holding the rod, I hurriedly looked for the exit of this place.I was about to pass a door, but I stopped.I was tempted to see what was behind the door, but opening the door meant
Few Hours Before Riley’s CaptureAfter spending the night with Vincent, I did not want to be away from him, and the only thing that was a threat to our relationship was the Grydens, I know they won’t stop at anything to get to Vincent, so I came up with a plan, a plan that Vincent would not approve off, and I had to do it without him.After having breakfast with Vincent, he told me that he would be holding a meeting with Tanya, Cyrus, Derek, and Bronte.My plan required a witch or wizard to help me, I would have told Cyrus, but considering his close bond with Vincent he may mistakenly reveal my plan to Vincent, and I won’t want that.I decided to tell Tanya and I hope she helps me without having to tell Vincent.As soon as Tanya got to the castle, I pulled her into an empty room.“ I need your help with something ” “Just tell me what it is and I promise to help you, hearing you ask me for help just brings back old memories”I smiled “yes it does”“So what do you need my help with”“I
