For the tenth time today, I found myself sprawled on the ground. I groaned out of frustration, as I hauled myself off the ground. Sparring with Wilona had to be the most challenging thing yet. Her strength, speed, and quick-minded thinking could not be outmatched. I couldn't help but wonder if her abilities stemmed from years of vigorous training or if she was just born that way.Brushing off the dust from my clothes, I faced her, “Why can't I ever beat you?”Wilona met my gaze, “Probably because you’re not stronger yet, and it's because you haven’t accessed your full powers”From the rebirth. I had completely forgotten about it, and here was Wilona reminding me. An unsettling fear crept in because I didn't know what to expect and the time for rebirth was drawing near. I wondered what the challenges I would face would be, and if I would be able to handle them.“I want to be strong on my own. I don’t want to depend on my destined powers,” my gaze moved downwards, “I hate feeling weak.
DEVYN’S POVI needed to mate with Gina. It had already been more than a week since we finalized the marriage and my control was slipping away faster than I thought. My wolf scratched and whimpered within me, as she wanted to break out and shift every time Gina filled my senses.And that happened every single time.Her scent had grown more difficult to resist and every time I looked at her, my memories of my fingers delving into her tight core consumed my mind. I couldn’t stop imagining how my cock would feel inside her.Despite the temptation to seize her and have my way with her, I still held back for reasons I could not understand yet. However, I couldn’t wait any longer.Having Raven around would have been a good time to pleasure myself, but I couldn't do it. Though she wore the most revealing clothes and made it obvious she was trying to get my attention, it never worked. Gina was all I could think of.It was nighttime and I figured Gina would've been asleep already, but I care le
GINA’S POVI was traumatized from the other night when Devyn had almost had his way with me. The fact that he had effortlessly keep me in place, despite all my struggles and full strength, unsettled me.Just when I was starting to warm up to him, and even like him a bit, he switched up on me and reminded me that he was never going to be a good person. He reminded me that he was and would always be a monster Whenever I tried to relate him to the Devyn I had seen playing with those kids at the school, I couldn’t believe he was the same person. I was starting to think he had a twin or a split personality disorder. The hypocritical aspect of all of this was that a part of me succumbed to his dominance and wanted him to have his way with me. I yearned to be fucked by him till tears burned in my eyes as I begged for mercy.The reason I was truly scared was because I was a virgin— and his cock was fucking huge.I shook my head, trying to dispel these naughty thoughts. I was scared of what
“That’s enough,” I begged Praya to release her grip on Raven. Lucia emerged from the kitchen, cleaning away the food contents that had gotten to the ground. She didn’t even care about the fight that was going on. There was no trace of sympathy on her face for Raven, and I honestly couldn’t blame her.Despite being the one Raven wanted to kill, I couldn’t help but feel empathy for her.The door to the house suddenly creaked open and I felt a fierce presence that weighed heavily on my senses.When I turned to look, Devyn’s piercing blue gaze met mine and I felt my breath hitch in my throat when I saw the anger etched on his face.“Praya,” I breathed out, “Stop it right now. He’s here.”Uncertain about what to do, the moment Devyn’s gaze fell on Praya and Raven and his blue eyes blazed, I instinctively positioned myself in front of Praya, my hands outstretched like a shield.I wasn’t sure of what Devyn would do, but at that moment when his eyes glowed, I knew he was about to do something
I found myself in a familiar clearing; our usual spot where Praya and I came to relax. It was nighttime and the moon's glow lit up the sky. As I approached the lake where we usually swam, the water looked magical under the moon’s ethereal glow. The water was called out to me and I followed its voice. Barefoot, when I dipped a foot into the water, a burst of energy flowed through me, sending shudders through my body.Dipping my other foot, the energy flowed from where the water touched my skin, spreading through my entire being. It was undoubtedly magical.Just when I was about to plunge completely into the water, I heard the sound of a twig snapping behind me. I craned my neck to get a better look and nearly collided with what stood in front of me.A magnificent creature stood in front of me— a large wolf, with shiny red fur adorning its body. It gazed at me with searching eyes, and my attention was immediately drawn to the glowing cresent mark on its forehead.Praya.The red wolf ti
DEVYN’S POVI rubbed my temples, tension suddenly weighing on me. The cause of the child’s death was still unknown, and I felt the longer we took to find it, the nearer an impending doom drew.As I approached the meeting ground, Liam and Gina were already there waiting, along with Diana.We had some unexpected visitors today, and that was exactly why I was here. There were two women, one younger and the older slightly older. The younger woman had skin as pale as alabaster, and her hair had a similar color to Diana’s pale gray. Her features were soft and feminine. The older woman had masculine features, with brown hair and forest-green eyes. I noticed the birthmark on their necks, indicating their origin.Witches.Apart from Diana who was a half-breed witch, these were the first witches I had ever seen. They were very good at hiding, so the possibility of seeing one was zero. They could only be seen, when they wanted you to see.“Alpha Devyn,” the brown-haired woman greeted, and I wa
GINA’S POVI gasped for air as I was pulled out of the water by the stranger. The cool breeze on my skin made my body shiver as I collided into the stranger.As I looked up, my eyes met familiar cold blue eyes, and I felt my breath hitch in my throat.Devyn gripped my arm, staring at me with frantic eyes, with our bodies pressed together.The emotions I had tried to suppress flooded back: anger, pain, betrayal. Overwhelmed, I couldn't hold back any longer.“LET ME GO! I HATE YOU!”I screamed at him, as I pounded against his chest with my fists. He didn’t say anything or try to shove me off… he just let me do my hit him. As I released everything on him, my gaze remained on his chest, because I didn’t dare to look him in the eyes. If I saw the coldness and emotionless look in his eyes, It would only confirm that he did all of this to hurt me.I fought back tears, refusing to let them fall. I didn't want to show him he caused my pain, and I also didn't want to give him the satisfaction
DEVYN’S POVCarrying her in my arms, she nestled into my chest and I felt my heart racing, certain she could hear its rapid beats.An unfamiliar sensation stirred in my heart as I felt held onto her petite frame, one I couldn't quite grasp or explain.Glancing at her, I couldn't get over how fragile she felt in my arms. The moment I found her submerged in the water, my heart had threatened to leap out of my chest. I hurried to her faster than I could comprehend.Yet, when I pulled her out, she glowered at me with those enchanting amber eyes, as if mad that I had pulled her out of the water.I didn't register the exact moment I kissed her. As she yelled, pounding against my chest, I allowed it. But when she gazed at me, impulsively, I pulled her closer, crashing my lips into hers.Her vulnerability had always amused me, and I meant that in a malicious way. Taunting her was a game to me. Yet, when she looked at me with tears streaming down her face, a painful pang struck my heart.As I
Six years later.As I open the fridge to get my orange juice, my heart almost leaps out of my chest as Conri jumps out of the fridge. “Boo!”“Oh my goddess! How the hell did you even get in there?” I shriek as I place a hand on my racing heart to calm it down.”Language,” Conri yells, giggling like he just did the funniest shit in the world. He tries to run but I grab his cheek and pinch as I scold him.“Ow! Dad! Mom is hurting me,” he screams as he manages to free himself out of my grasp and run to the living room. Feeling frustration and a headache coming in, I rub my temple as I exit the kitchen, completely forgetting my orange juice. When my gaze falls on Devyn and Praya, I feel warmth creep into my chest. He lifts his gaze and stares at me with admiration and love in his icy blue eyes. As I walk closer to him, I giggle when I see what Praya did to him. He has a large pink bow in his hair, and he’s seated on a stool as Praya paints his nails, her focus unwavering.I cross my arm
GINA’S POVI found myself in a field, lying as I gazed at the skies. I wasn't sure where I was, but it felt and looked like paradise. The moon’s gaze met and I felt a sense of serenity. A hand suddenly caught my attention as it reached out to me. Without hesitating, I took it and I was pulled off the ground. As I stood on my feet, my breath hitched when Praya stood in front of me.My heart warmed as I pulled her into an embrace. “I missed you so much. I’m here now,” I whispered into her neck, breathing in her scent. She was real because I could feel every part of her; from the beating of her heart and the warmth radiating from her body. When I looked in front of me, my mother was standing there, waiting, with a genuine smile on her face. We pulled away from our embrace and Praya held my hand, guiding me further into paradise as she spoke, “Now we can be together.”I followed, my heart radiating with joy. When I reached my mother, I wrapped my arms around her and sank my face into
DEVYN’S POVMy whole world stopped as I held Gina in my arms. It all happened in a flash. With shaky hands, I pulled the blade out of her heart, and my heart sank deeper when she bled more. I pressed a hand to her bloodied chest, trying to stop the bleeding while I caressed her hair with my other hand.“Stay with me, please, stay with me,” was all I kept mumbling. Her amber gaze held mine, but she wasn't there… she wasn't looking. My heart twisted painfully as I felt her heartbeat slow against my palm. Standing on my feet, I carried her in my arms. She felt heavier than usual, her head fell back and her arms sagged lifelessly as I ran. She was still alive, though her heartbeat was faint. There was still a chance to save her. The fight had stopped as the monsters fell dead, probably because their master was dead, but I couldn’t care less… reviving her was the only thing on my mind. I never took my eyes off her face, hoping for some sort of miracle, to see those eyes come back to lif
The energy flowing through me was like nothing I had ever felt before. It rushed through my veins, sending power to my heart. When I looked down my hand, it completely healed, like I was never wounded. The pain in my back and my head was gone, and I felt fucking alive.My eyes fell on the dagger on the ground. It was at a distance but I could see it clearly like it was in the palm of my hand. I walked to it, and in a split second, I had the dagger in my hand. Eyeing the dagger, it grew in my hand until it became a sword.Perfect.I walked towards Wilona until I stood in front of her. Though she was bigger than me, I felt like a giant as she cowered.‘Fuck you!’ she growled and clawed my face, only because I let her. My blood stained the ground, but immediately, I felt my wounds close up.When she saw she was no match for me, her panicked voice shrieked in my mind.’Get away from me!’Rage coursed through me, as I recalled everything she did.“I won’t let you live for all you’ve done.
Everything happened in a flash. Wilona charged towards me and just as she was about to lunge at me, Liam jumped in and clashed into her. They fought, their bodies crashing into the ground and against the walls as they bit and clawed at each other.‘I don't know why you're doing this, but I’m not going to let you kill her!’Liam’s voice boomed in my mind just as he dodged a claw attack from Wilona, and sent her crashing to the ground.‘What do you even have for her that you’re willing to protect her? That you’re willing to lay your life for her?’ Wilona responded as their conversation echoed in my mind.‘Because it’s my duty and I'll protect her till I die.’His words made my heart thump.Wilona circled him, as she snarled, ‘Then die.’She surged forward, and slashed Liam across the face with one vicious swipe. My breath caught at the sight of his blood splattering on the floor. My gaze fell on Kristen who watched everything from a corner, her body trembling visibly.I had to get her o
My head ached as I regained consciousness, and when my vision adjusted to my surroundings, I found myself lying on a bed. Turning, I saw Kristen by my side, her eyes filled with concern.“You’re awake, thank goodness,” she exclaimed, pulling me into a tight hug. As she held me, her body shook and I realized she was sobbing.Looking around, I realized we were being kept in a well-furnished luxurious room, surprised we weren't locked in a dark dungeon. I recalled the events before I passed and when Damien’s face flashed in my mind, my blood boiled with rage.“I’m scared, Gina. I can’t even remember how I got here,” Kristen’s voice made my heart sink. When I looked at her body and the cuts on her body, my anger intensified even more.I clutched her face in my hand, and wiped her tears with my thumb, “I understand how you feel. I’m so sorry you got dragged into this, but I promise, I’m going to get us out of this shithole.”She nodded her head, and I was glad she had faith in me. I walked
It didn’t take more than an hour till I got to my destination. Immediately we drove through the gates, there was an uneasy feeling that washed over me. I peered through the window, observing my surroundings. Everything seemed and looked normal, yet, it was far from it.When the car came to a halt, the driver who had been silent the entire ride opened the door for me, and I stepped out reluctantly. When I looked up, I found myself standing in front of a huge dark mansion. I would’ve admired the remarkable architecture if not for the feeling of anxiety creeping down my spine. There was something thick in the atmosphere that made my skin crawl and I couldn't understand what it was.I took a deep breath as I walked ahead, being led to the mansion’s entrance by two large men. As the door opened, we stepped into the mansion, walking through wide long halls. When we reached the next doorway, the door swung open, revealing a majestic dining room. The interior was breathtaking with golden re
GINA’S POVAt the mention of his name, my body went stiff as rage coursed through me. He not only attacked our pack while we were gone but also had to kidnap my best friend.Devyn snatched the phone from Liam and put it to his ear.“What are you playing at, you fucking bastard?” he spat out, his voice filled with venom. As the conversation went on, all I could think about was the horrible things he could do to Kristen. We knew just how evil he was, but didn’t know what he was capable of doing.Devyn looked frantic, and for a second, I thought he was going to toss the phone away. Reluctantly, he handed me the phone.“He wants to speak to you specifically.”Wasting no time, I grabbbed the phone and placed it against my ear.“Put it on speaker. I want to hear what he says to you,” Devyn instructed and I obeyed as I pressed the speaker button.“Gina.”Chills went through my spine, leaving an uneasy feeling within me. I hated the way he said my name, and I wished he’d never say it again.
DEVYN’S POVAs we walked out of the church, Flora along with the other witches was underneath the tree, waiting. The moment we were out, they walked towards us. I had a hand on Gina’s waist, guiding her protectively.After the ritual, she was different. She was more tender, and quieter, and her scent had changed too. She normally smelled more like a human, but this time she smelt more like a wolf, but not completely one.“I see it was successful,” Flora chimed as a triumphant expression etched on her face, “And quick too.”Gina nodded lightly and I couldn’t help but feel pride. She was special, and it didn’t just have to do with her destiny and her abilities. She was brilliant, a quick learner and unique.“Now you’re going to face what’s ahead of you. Are you ready? You’re going to fight the real fight now,” she said, directed to Gina.I could feel Gina’s emotions even as she tried to hide her uncertainty and anxiety. I couldn’t blame her. She never got to fight, and now she was goin
