I knew Vincent could hear my troubled thoughts, but he just ignore them.He left me with Cyrus and Kayla who was still in the pack house.I stared at the door as it closed behind Vincent who left the room.I could feel his distress and anger through the mate bond and it was affecting my mood as well, although I wanted to ask him about what the Grydens had said, but I was still worried about him.I felt a touch on my shoulder and turned to see Kayla who gave me a smile.“It’s going to be fine” I nodded at her She lead me to a couch which was near the window“What happened when you went there,” Cyrus asked. He was sitting on the bed, his face was pale and I hoped he would be fine.“Is Vincent also a Gryden?” I asked him, I was sure he would, he was Vincent’s best friend after all.“Are you worried that he is”“Not really, it’s just that, after we left the pack house border, Vincent seemed to be in a really bad mood, and he also left me here without saying a thing to me” I explained to
I stood rooted to the spot, the room became tense, and I could feel Vincent’s rage as he looked at Rose who dropped the knife in shock, she was also surprised as to what had happened.She stepped back staring at her hand realizing what she had done.In a swift movement, Vincent was already in front of her, his hand around her neck.Knowing something wasn't right, I tried to stop Vincent from hurting Rose.“Vincent, we need to help Cyrus” I screamed at him, noticing that rage has clouded his judgment.Vincent reduced the pressure on her neck before throwing her to the side.He went to Cyrus and knelt beside him.“Vincent ” Cyrus called out, his voice was not really audible, and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.He groaned, he was in so much pain, and I felt useless standing there without doing anything, my powers weren’t even helpful. Though I knew he was going to die, I could not help. This was worse than any of my nightmares.“I don’t think I have much time” Cyrus coughed.
I woke up in a soft and comedy bed, my eyes open slowly, and I adjusted them to the brightness of the room.I yawned lazily, as I sat on the bed stretching. I looked around the room which seemed a little strange.Everything in the room looked really ancient, it was different from the room I once knew.The door opened and Vincent came inside smiling “you are awake” he entered the room holding a cup of hot coffee.“Cyrus said you are really strained,” he said and I remembered everything that happened, how Cyrus died and how I had passed out while trying to bring him back to life.“How is Cyrus, is he alive”“What are you talking about Scarlet,” he asked as he handed the cup of coffee to me.I took the cup of coffee from him “Cyrus died yesterday, he was stabbed. Tanya and I tried to revive him with the blood moon flower.Vincent laughed lightly “are you seeing visions now” he touched my head “Cyrus didn’t die and he is too powerful to be killed by a stab”“It was because he was weak, h
“I need to show you something,” she replied, stretching out her hand to me.I took her hand, and immediately we were in a room.We weren’t the only people in the room, Scarlet was also there, and was speaking to Selene. It seems we were in the past, I wondered what she wanted to show me.“I don’t want him to wake up and spend the rest of his life in grief” I heard Scarlet say, they were tears in her eyes.Selene from the past was reluctant to grant her what she had requested.“Please, you need to help,” she pleaded.“Are you certain this is what you want?” she asked her, she wanted her to rethink about her decision on whatever they were talking about.“Yes, I have made my decision”Everything immediately faded away making me confused“ what just happened”“Don’t you remember?” she asked“Remember what” I was confused.“Scarlet used a spell that took her life in exchange for Vincent. But before that, she didn’t want Vincent to leave an eternity with a mate, so she had requested for me
I woke up to the woodsy scent that I have grown to love so much.My eyes fluttered open and I was met with two warm red eyes staring into mine.“How are you feeling” his voice was hoarse and I loved how it felt like music to my ears.After regaining my memories, I don’t know if I should tell him who I was in my past life.I smiled at him and nodded answering his question. “What about Cyrus, how is he,” I asked immediately. I remembered what had happened before I passed out. I hoped my idea had worked because I could not bear the idea of losing Cyrus, not when I just found out that he is my brother.“He is healthy enough to run around the city, so you don’t need to be concerned” he replied and looked at me with pride in his eyes “and it is all thanks to you that he survived”“Well, everybody helped”“But you made it happen”He placed a quick kiss on my lips, before staring at me “I love you Riley” he said before crashing his lips on mine.His lips moved against mine before his hands
“I will never keep anything away from you” he brought me closer, placing his hand on my waist.“Was that the reason you did not want me to meet your brothers?” I asked After my encounter with Selene, I finally remembered everything, Dartron, Thanos and Morpheus were Vincent's brothers although they did not have the same father, but they all had one mother.Cyrus's mother was a Gryden while his father was the Lycan kingHe nodded “If they realize that the same person that sealed them is still alive, they will come after you, and I don't want that to happen, I don't want to lose you again”I raised my hand to his face, touching his cheeks.“I will never leave you” I whispered to him.“I would not even let you” he replied and I smiled “ I don't think I will be of much help in the upcoming war, I am not sure t a witch, I am just a helhound. Selene says it was my punishment for using the forbidden three hundred years ago”“Whether you are a witch or not, you are special and I know you do
Vincent is half Lycan and half Gryden. I could still remember when he had told me about his connection with the Grydens.Vincent’s father Harris who was the alpha king of both the Lycans and the werewolves had met Bianca at one of his trip to meet the Alpha of a neighboring pack.Alpha Harris had recognized his mate immediately he saw her, even without touching her hands to feel the spark, his wolf had recognized her.They had bonded that night, and unknown to him, Bianca was a Gryden, heiress to the underworld and she was already bethroted to someone else.Alpha Harris had taken her back to the castle to become his Luna and the queen of the wolves.After Bianca’s coronation, Harris later found out that she was a Gryden. Bianca had expected Harris to reject her after figuring out her truth, but to her surprise he didn’t.A year later she was pregnant with Vincent, but their happiness was short lived as Bianca’s father had come to take her back home.Alpha Harris refused to let Bianca
Cyrus told everyone that Rose wasn’t the one who killed him, she was controlled by Morpheus.When she had gone for groceries, she had encountered Morpheus, not knowing who he was, they had a conversation and Morpheus got into her mind, controlling her which led to the death of Cyrus.Everyone was in Vincent's study, trying to figure out a way to get rid of Grydens, now that they are back, everyone is on edge.“They are still weak, and they need the last seal to regain their powers,” Derek said and I remembered what Thanos had said about them not having them because of the last seal.“We just have to find the last seal before them” I suggested, now that I had regained my memories, it was going to be easy to locate the last seal.“But first we have to get rid of Will, with a wizard on their side they would be at an advantage” Tanya said and with her tone it was obvious that if she was given the opportunity, she would personally end Will.“I agree with Tanya on this,” Cyrus said.“I will
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
