Aurora's POVI don't know what that was, I couldn't tell if it was a dream or if I imagined it.I wasn't sure about anything at all but whatever that was, it sent shivers down my spine and made my knees shake. And I think my eyes were open. But I can't remember anything after... that. It felt as though someone was watching me, listening to me. Like someone could see through my skin, and hear my thoughts. The room was cold, colder than usual, the wind had picked up again. It blew hard like the wind itself wanted something from inside me. I shivered involuntarily, trying to wrap myself in my blankets for warmth but they didn't do much good anymore.As the moon reflected into my room, I stood up with shaky hands and moved towards my window, pushing back the curtains. My breath hitched when I saw it, and my body trembled violently. What is that? I thought. Why am I seeing this? I closed my eyes tightly but I knew I wouldn't be able to close my ears to its whispers. At the farthest end,
Unknown POVMy plan was to mess up with her head until she couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams any more. That would get rid of her and maybe give me something in return, I don’t know, but something useful.So I watched as my daughter chanted spells , her fingers moving through the air as if they were guided by some unseen god. It was mesmerizing, so much effort and focus being put into this spell. My daughter’s hair was loose today, long and dark and falling over her shoulders in a thick curtain.When she moved closer to me, I could see how tired she looked. Her face had become pale, almost gaunt. Her eyelids drooped and there were dark circles under them, and that’s when it struck me that maybe this wasn’t a good thing but we had too many unseen enemies and it just made sense to keep her strong, to make her protect herself
Aurora’s POVThe urge for solitude, to take a stroll away from this castle and the surrounding grounds was strong today, especially after seeing how beautiful it was outside - with the sun setting in making everything look even more like art than usual. The sky was cloudless, only the faintest traces of fluffy white clouds drifting lazily across the horizon. It felt like there were so many possibilities out there in the world, where you could explore without any fear of being caught by some unsuspecting predator. And not just any unsuspecting predator. One that had been chasing you as prey for days now. No, for weeks.He had finally found you. You had never seen him before -yet you wanted to pretend that he didn't exist. That it wasn't in your mind, even when you knew it wasn't true.That was exactly how I felt.As I snuck out to the park that was close to the castle, I noticed that there was no one around. There wasn't a soul near, or anywhere close by.This is unusual... but not
Alpha Daniel's POVShe must have dozed off from all the anger and drama that was she was trying to keep inside her.Her mouth was partly wide and I chuckled at how adorable she looked. Sometimes she was feisty and sometimes she fragile.Suddenly her eyes slowly fluttered open as if she felt herself being gently shaken. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and squinted them to try and focus on what was happening.And she realised that she was still in the car with me.Her blue eyes met mine and I drew in sharp breaths, taking notice of their colour. They were deep and captivating, and they gave everything a certain mysterious quality I couldn't -can't explain.My wolf howled inside of me.“We are here” I forced myself to say. Turning my attention from her eyes and lips.I would have kissed h
Aurora’s POVI couldn't exactly explain what was going on, but I knew Alexis had suddenly begun to include me in his plans, maybe it was because he was trying to make up for his outburst or maybe it was another reason but whatever it was, I accepted it wholeheartedly.Only because I didn't want to be alone anymore, I couldn't shake away the feeling of doom and darkness that was lurking around and looking for who to devour and I couldn't tell him about it either.“We are here” his voice rang through my head and the words reverberated inside my chest.I had never felt so scared in my life. I looked around at the crowd of people on the streets. The air was cold and humid as though it wasn't even September yet.I looked up and the stars were scattered across the sky, almost like they were just hanging out there to watch us. The moon hung over everything like a big crescent moon that glistened with silver liquid.“You are on a date, I can't believe it” Layla my vampire's side whispered in
Aurora’s POVThe sexual tension that lingered in the air wasn't discrete. He caught me red-handed and I couldn't bring myself tilook away or hide the fact that I was staring at his lips on time.But what I wanted to do at that moment was to pretend like never none of it happened.“I think we should head back” I finally broke the silence and my gaze as well looking everywhere else but his face.“Why? We just got here”“We didn't just get here Alexis, we have been here for a while and I want to go back home” y tone was more serious now but it was more of the fact that I could feel my face heating up as the reality of what we- what I was about to do got dawned on me. My hands began shaking uncontrollably and it was difficult to hold myself properly as my heart raced inside my chest.He cleared his throat and nodded. “You're right. It's late”He helped me get back on my feet and I tried not to pay attention to the fact that his hand lingered in mine, a little.As I stumbled on the uneven
Alpha Alexis POVShe had put in more efforts into avoiding me more than before. She seemed like she didn't want to be around me at all.Why was she fighting this?We both knew what our wolves wanted, yet she did a great job in acting oblivious to it.She sat beside me in the car, but she leaned far away from me . I could feel that she was scared but she tried to hide it by staring out the window, pretending to see nothing. Her hand was shaking slightly and when she clenched it hard, the fingers started shaking, like she needed to use every ounce of strength to control it. We hadn't spoken since the portrait incident, she did well to keep her distance and I kept mine too. Throwing myself into work, the pack, and everything that came with it.From a peripheral peek, I saw her drag down the end of her dress like it was supposed to miraculously increase the length, and she tried repeatedly. I almost smiled at how adorable she looked, I had chosen the short gold armless dress on purpose.
Aurora's POVI saw a girl, she was about 5’2 and she had a black cloak around her neck and her eyes were red glinting with malice and it made me shudder, I didn't know what happened but I felt that something bad happened because she wasn't happy, she was angry for some reason. Her lips moved and there were words but my hearing didn't seem to work so well so I just heard the words “blood” and “death”“Who are you?” My voice echoed through the woods, it looked awfully familiar.“I have been waiting Aurora, we all have been waiting, it took you forever”What did she mean by we all have been waiting? Waiting for what? For who?It was only when a group of men all charged toward Alexis whom I hadn't noticed until now and he fought them like a wounded lioness trying to protect its cub. He dodged each attack that came his way effortlessly, swinging his claws as needed and slicing through flesh and bones.They all tried to overpower him by attacking from multiple angles but none of the blows r
Luna’s POV (Flash back) No one knew where I came from, but they knew enough to consider me a bad omen. It was said that I was found on a lonely path and that I was about five and couldn't remember a thing, so my new parents kept me… “What are you doing? you are supposed to make breakfast” I looked away from the strawberry-blonde woman with a perfect face whose eyes were boring into my soul. “Yes Ma’am” I could still feel her stare shooting lasers at my back as I fidgeted with the kitchen cabinets until I found a plate and fork. “Sorry, sorry”. I quickly moved around the counter and went to make some scrambled eggs. It was only when she left the kitchen that I could breathe properly again. My head was spinning and my stomach was churning. A strange feeling of unease gripped my chest. It wasn't just the fact that she stared at me like an animal; she also seemed to know what I thought. And that unnerved me even more than her staring. I still remember when I got home from school and
Unknown POV“I found their headquarters, I know where they are keeping her, we should be on our way already” Silas was trying to button his shirt, his mind still in that dungeon where she was kept.“Woah, slow down a sec. How did you find it?” The femame questioned looking at the agitated male like he had grown a pair of horns.“What? you don't believe me?” Silas was agitated, they were wasting time.“No, I don’t. Last time I checked you were sleeping over there” She pointed with her hands. “And boom! you are telling us you found that you have found the moon stalkers quarter's, does that make any sense to you?” It was the calmness in the female’s voice that irritated one of them, how could she be so calm?“I found it!” He snapped through gritted teeth.The calm, who was just watching and knew where this was going to end, quickly jumped in. “Knock it off, children”Maybe the last word will keep them calm.“How did you find it, ?”Forcefully he tore his gaze away from the female, drawin
Alpha Daniel’s POVSex, Sex was a major distraction for me from all that had happened, Luna and I had sex nonstop, it seemed like. She didn’t even bother to get rid of my clothes afterwards. I could have gotten away with this if she hadn’t been such a perfectionist, but she wasn’t. She insisted on cleaning my sweat and tears off my body before I went to sleep, which made me feel embarrassed and gross. Now she was sitting on my face while I sucked on her clit bitting and using my fingers to make myself feel better. It wasn't working so well. The way my brain and dick just felt at peace whenever she touched me. I could hardly remember a time in our whole relationship when she hadn’t done it. It wasn’t fair. “Touch yourself” I ordered her. My voice sounded rough and deep and not my own. Her head whipped towards me, eyes wide and lips parted in surprise. She looked at me as though I'd grown another head. She stared and stared, like she couldn't believe what she was seeing. As though s
Aurora’s POVThat same dream invaded my head. With the same monster. The same dream, same words, same everything.“Not exactly who you were expecting, am I right?” he murmured amusedly, taking in the sight of me, as if he had planned this whole encounter.He took a step back and leaned his back against the wall of the room, still looking directly at me.My brain felt fried and my mouth felt dry. I couldn't find any words to reply. All that could run through my mind was him, and his eyes and his voice and his smell, his smell that filled me with pure terror.“Hello, Aurora” he greeted once again when he noticed my lack of response.“Aren't you going to answer me?” he teased, smirking playfully.My chest was constricting and my breaths were shallow. He chuckled again and shook his head, stepping towards me.“Answer me, Anna,” He demanded, looking furious like he was about to snap my neck.Very possible.But I couldn't think of any other thing apart from the fact that this could be my la
Aurora’s POVI don't think I could take it anymore. Then it struck me that I had gotten back my powers.“Do you think you can cut these ropes Ava?” I whispered to my witch side.“I'll try, but I am not promising you anything”And Ava tried but each time she tried the ropes that were tied around my wrist seemed to dig into my flesh causing more pain to my nerves which in turn made them even harder to control. I winced and squeezed my eyes shut as my head began to spin from the lack of oxygen. A moment later when it was apparent that nothing would happen for some more minutes I forced myself to relax and let go of all thoughts. I breathed deeply telling Ava that there was no need to try.“You see, I knew you were going to do that. Both those ropes are something no witch, vampire, or werewolf can untie and I choose it, especially for this occasion” The voice ran out again.“What do you want?” I was tired of playing his stupid games, I'd played enough already. He was the master of this wh
Alpha Alexis POVIn the midst of Aurora’s tears, I couldn't tell her that the council had mentioned me as a wanted person. I didn't want her to deal with more guilt than she already felt for her mistake. So instead I smiled at her reassuringly and said that I would be back soon to help. That would be enough for now. She was so young, I thought, how could her world have been shattered? But when she saw my expression, her face went pale and she nodded sadly before turning away. I felt like an insensitive fool.But I also needed to speak to my chief guard, he was the only one who was keeping me informed about all that was happening around us.“What is the update?” “You and your Luna are being followed, Sir, I think they put some sort of tracker on you both. Maybe they used a seer but as we speak now, they know where you both are, and it's best if you leave…”I didn't hear the rest because he was whispering and probably didn't want to get caught . My head buzzed. The thought that someone
Unknown POV“ She lost her powers, Father, and now she has them back, I don't know how possible that is, that is all I can say for now”We were seated in my little beast room which was lit with candles while she sat in the middle chanting , the air thick with the smell of incense, as if she could summon her powers at will from anywhere within our small sanctuary. The old wood panelled walls seemed to creak and groan with the vibrations as she kept repeating the same phrase over and over. As I watched, a spider fell to its death from a high beam above us. It didn' t even take five seconds until the floor began to quiver. I tried not to let it bother me. The candle flames danced around the room as I stared through the crack on the door at the dark figure kneeling before me. Her eyes shone red like embers as they glowed brightly under the flickering lights.I loved every bit of it. My daughter wasn't a tribrid, just a hybrid and she possessed these powers, I couldn't wait to get my hands
Alpha Alexis POVSometimes I wondered if Aurora cared about me at all. I honestly wanted to understand how she could sit there and comfortably speak of another man while I was the who who had been rejected. She’d told herself that a thousand times before, but now it just seemed crueler. Why hadn’t she ever said something? Maybe that meant that she didn’t think it mattered anymore. But…what had I done to be left behind?I made silly mistakes in the past, true but I was trying so hard to be better, trying even harder to keep her safe and sound. I did my best, didn't I? Didn't I love her like nothing else? If I couldn't please her as an adult then what kind of life would we have? What kind of life would I have without her around? I looked down as she rubbed her wrists where I held her previously. The angry fingerprint of my fingers lingered, but not long enough to show on her skin. It faded away after only a few minutes though, and by then she looked up at me with those big blue eyes, h
Alpha Alexis POVMy heart tore into shreds when I found it that it had all been lies, she had been lying to me the whole time and I thought I might actually die. She lied to me and didn't tell me, even though she knew how much I loved her and I told her a thousand times that she was my everything, that my whole world revolved around her and I wouldn’t survive without her and I couldn’t do this if she was gone.The entire damn time.What was I going to do? Someone from the council called me, he only did me that favor because I saved his life once. He said they were planning to come for her and I was thrown into a misery of despair.I couldn't let them take her even though she was a liar, even though she deserved it. If she died, who would I be then? The one left behind without her in my life. I would become just another Alpha. A sad person with no hope and nothing else to live for.As I drove home, I tried to keep my emotions in check to avoid any accidents on the way there, but ev
