Unknown POV“Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you all for honoring my invitation tonight, it means a lot to me, and it would have meant a lot to my father too. Unfortunately, he is no more. This has always been his dream- our dream to see us werewolves united together, with no bad blood, no hatred, and no fear...and we achieved this. Tonight marks the beginning of a new dawn, tonight marks the beginning of a new era. And I can only hope that the people here are eager to unite themselves with each other, as I am. I want to thank the Alphas and fellow Kings, we wouldn't all be here without your consent. So cheers to a new beginning - to all of us” That was her father’s speech on the night of the were Wolf reunion.I remember how I watched them from afar, that night, it was the first time I was seeing her that close.Red.That was the color of her dress.Red like flames dancing in fire.Like a sea of rubies reflecting the moonlight. Like a firestorm in a bottle.It reminded me of the flames
Alpha Alexis POV“I want to see Madam Margaret” Her voice trembled a bit, she stayed far away from me as if she was scared of me.As if I had not been inside her, as if she had not been moaning and screaming my name for hours until we finally reached the climax.Now she stood far away as if she was irritated by me, it hurt me in my heart that she did not look at me in the eyes when she said those words. She avoided me like I was something disgusting. Like one might avoid a person who has been drinking poison, I could imagine the disgust in her eyes when she looked at me now, I knew she felt disgusted with herself and mostly me.I wanted to ask her if this was one of those times we pretended as if nothing ever happened between us, but I did not think it was right to bring it up when all of her actions were clearly not crystal clear.&n
Aurora’s POVThe drive to the place where I grew up was not nostalgic like it would have been for most people, mine was full of dread and uncertainty. The car was silent except for Alexis' occasional cough, and there was a weight on my chest as I thought about what I was going to find when I got out, a kind of anticipation that felt different from anything I had ever experienced before. A sense of danger? Was that even the right word? Did something feel wrong in the air ? Or was it just me being paranoid? Maybe the world wasn't as bright as I thought. It couldn't be the sun, the sky was too grey for it. Was it my imagination? Was that why everything seemed so weird? My breathing came out in shallow gasps. My heart rate sped up again with each passing second. My stomach churned. And still, no other thoughts entered my head, which was odd for me but I wasn’t exactly used to having thoughts at that point. I was still thinking about how much better it would be if I had stayed back hom
Aurora’s POV“Get out!” Madam Margaret ordered, pointing at me with the index finger of her left hand. She didn't seem afraid anymore, she was definitely mad now , as I realised that she was staring straight at Alexis. For the first time since we got out of his car, I could see that there was something wrong with his eyes, something unsettling about the pupil, something unnatural that I wished I could see clearly. It frightened me and I backed away further.It felt as though they were communicating with their eyes locked in contact and I was frozen to my spot. The hairs on my arms rose as I watched Alexis walk towards me. He didn't seem bothered by it either, but I could see the sweat forming on his forehead and neck. He moved closer until he was standing in front of me. He was still looking at Madam Margaret as he spoke: “We are not here to cause any trouble”“Do I look like I care? ” The tone of her voice was mocking, but there was a hint of anger in her eyes.“No ma’am. No you do
Aurora’s POV“When were you going to tell me?” I asked Alexis as he had begun to drive.He didn’t answer immediately, and I watched the scenery blur past outside my window as we drove through town. “Come on! When? Why didn’t you say anything when you got back” His silence was beginning to irritate me.He glanced at me and returned his gaze to the road “Why don't we focus on getting back home first”“Alexis,” I said warningly, not wanting him to change subjects just yet. The car was quiet and I needed answers. “Don't you dare pull that card on me? Were you ever going to tell me? ” I persisted, my tone rising in anger with each word. He looked away from the road and then turned towards me.There was a moment of silence as he searched for words that would explain why he hadn't told me but I knew better than that. He wasn't going to say anything until he wanted to and I didn't have the patience to play his games right now. I could see it in his eyes, he was trying to gauge whether I woul
Aurora’s POV “Did she really say doom was lurking around me?” I asked Alexis when we finally got home and he told me. I was trying so hard to connect my thoughts with something other than my own misery that the conversation felt like a light bulb had gone off above my head. Maybe this would finally lead to some answers. Or maybe it wouldn't. But hey, at least now I knew for sure that there was more going on here than just an old house that hadn't been lived in for decades. “Yes, she did and she said something about the prophecies” “What prophecies?” “She didn't exactly specify, but she seemed to think something was coming and that you were part of it. I’m afraid I can’t give you much more information since she wasn't very forthcoming. She did tell me that a man will come after you ” He explained “It doesn't make sense. Who or what is supposed to happen in the future that involves you? And why is that so important?”He sounded a little irritated. “This is why I didn't want to tel
Alpha Daniel’s POVI decided to take a break later that evening to my favourite spot. Funny how it was still my favourite even though it held memories of the things I didn't want to remember anymore. It wasn't hard at all for me to get there, considering its location. A good walk would do wonders for clearing my head.It held too much of memories of her, of us, of everything she meant to me in this world and that. Her smile, eyes, hair, and voice were etched into the memory so deeply that sometimes I could feel them. My hands remembered every inch of her body. The way she felt. What I felt when she kissed me, what we did together. The way she screamed at me in the middle of our unruly passion . How we both got out of bed in the morning, smiling at each other like fools in love. She made me laugh. Made me happy. That was when things changed between us. I realized how one-sided it had been, she didn't feel the same way about me as I did about her. If she had, she would never have do
Unknown’s POVAs I watched her, something seemed different about her and it felt as though she told him something about me.She now had guards following her around everywhere. She was on constant guard, but I thought nothing of that. Her face always remained the same – a mixture of sadness, fear, hatred, and anger all at once – and she never showed any emotion whatsoever. That suited my purpose just fine.I thought it was pathetic, it was going to need more than guards to stop me from getting what I wanted, but that didn't mean it wouldn't work. There were other things, things that I could do with my abilities, things that would make this plan of mine work out perfectly well. It wouldn't be easy, I'm sure, but everything would eventually fall into place in my favour. The key to everything was right in front of my eyes and if I couldn't have her, no one else would.Even if it meant taking everything else away from her. The guards weren't going to protect her forever. She wasn't even s
