In no time, we managed to settle into the cabin. I had found an old rickety mini truck parked near the cabin. After I examined it, all its parts miraculously remained intact, and there was still a bit of petrol left in it.

I dragged the truck closer to the house so that I wouldn't be far away from the cabin where Gina remained. It was noon as I worked on its parts, while Gina sat by the porch in the rocking chair, watching me.

When I was partly done, I joined her, standing beside her as I scanned the area.

“Wouldn't it be nice living like this?” she broke the silence. Glancing at her, I noticed how bright she looked, and the spark in her eyes as she watched stared ahead.

“In the middle of the woods, alone in a small comfy cabin with the love of your life and your kids?” there was a tinge in her voice that I had never heard before.

I allowed myself to imagine the scenario in my head, and all I could see was Gina, beautiful and happy, with a child that looked just like her, on her hip

    GINA’S POVI lay on the bed for a while, tears streaming down my eyes as they soaked the dusty foam. Maybe I lingered there, hoping he would reach out to me, offering his comforting touch, a heated kiss on the neck, or pulling me to his chest in a warm embrace. I yearned to hear him tell me those words I longed to hear.But he never came.Fuck him.I hated him now, as much as I loved him, and right now I wish my hatred would overpower the love. Maybe that way, I would be able to endure the agonizing ache in my heart. It hurt to cry, to breathe even, when my heart bled like this. The pain was worse than I could imagine. It was unbearable, and I wished maybe I felt some kind of physical pain to distract me from the pain in my heart.I slept off for a short while, only to wake up gasping and filled with terror. The red-eyed monster from my dream started to haunt me.When I turned around in bed, expecting to see Devyn by my side, my heart shattered even more when I didn’t.He wasn’t here

    “I’m listening.”He still held my arm, refusing to let me go. I didn’t struggle anymore, this time, I paid attention and listened.“I have a lot of things to say to you,” he paused, and I watched his chest rise and fall dramatically as he took a deep breath, “but I’ll start with an apology for earlier. I didn’t mean anything I said to you.”My heartbeat raced. Was he trying to say his feelings are true? “You’re right about me being a coward because I was afraid— I still am.”He pulled me closer to him, and I felt my breath hitch.“For the first time in my life, I’ve felt genuine fear. I’m afraid of the husband I’ll be, and I’m afraid of the lover I’ll be, because deep down, there’s a sinister part of me, and it has frozen the warmth in my heart. I’m afraid of hurting you.”My chest began to feel tight and my eardrums started to drum.He continued, “I’m not a good man, yet, you gave your heart to me, and all I did was shatter it. I don’t know how long it’ll take, but I’m ready to fix

    DEVYN’S POV“More than anything.”Her words resonated in my ears, and I could hear them echoing repeatedly in my head.Leaning down, I took her lips with mine, kissing her roughly. When I pulled back, I trailed kisses down to her neck, closing in on her nipples. She moaned and I felt my cock puncture a hole through my pants. The urge to feel her grew till it became insatiable.While sucking her nipple, I squeezed the other. She made a yelping sound that fueled an intense desire within me. I bit down on her nipple just so she could make that sweet noise again. I pulled back to look at her pretty face, and I knew I could kill for it. I placed a kiss on her breasts and moved down, trailing my tongue till I reached her navel. Reveling in the taste of her skin, I continued moving down till I settled in between her legs. Pausing, I raised my head to meet her gaze. I cherished the sight of her looking down on me.“Part your legs for me,” I ordered, my desire evident in my voice.She bit her

    We cuddled in bed, our naked bodies intertwined. Holding her waist, I buried my face into the curve of her neck, inhaling her essence into my lungs. I felt safe, at peace, and relaxed this way. I knew it was because of her, and I had no intention of ever letting her go.I kissed her as I smoothed her hair, “Suddenly, I don’t feel like leaving here.”She then turned to face me, her beautiful amber eyes sparkling.“Now you’re getting it. Maybe we could come back sometime, though the woods creeps me out.”I placed a kiss on her lips, “We’ll go someplace similar but better. You look so beautiful when you’re happy. I want you to always be happy, with me.”She smiled and I felt warmth flood my heart. Her expression suddenly changed to a concerned one.“What’s wrong?”“I had that dream again.”Propping myself up with my elbow, she sat upright, pulling her knees to her chest and staring forward.“I saw that monster. What if it’s a sign? What if it’s coming?”I moved behind her, wrapped my arm

    GINA’S POVAs I jolted awake, I expected to find Devyn awake and prepared to leave. Surprisingly, his arms locked around me in a tight embrace, signaling otherwise. I turned around so I could face him, and my movement seemed to wake him as he gazed down at me with half-opened eyes.“I thought you weren’t sleeping and watching out for us,” I teased as I rubbed his chiseled chin.He responded with a yawn, “I can’t let go of you,” he planted a kiss on my forehead and my heart fluttered, “You’re my melatonin. You make me feel sleepy.”“That’s because you feel safe with me.”A smile graced his handsome face, “I do.”As his arms released me, I pouted my lips, missing his touch and warmth already. Watching him wear his pants, I admired his sexy muscular body. Memories of him pounding into me yesterday sent a shiver through me and I instinctively pressed my thighs together as desire surged through me. “Let’s get cleaned up. There’s a stream nearby,” he said, stretching out his hand. When I g

    We had been driving for a while, but we were still stuck in the woods.“We might run out of gas anytime from now,” Devyn said, adding to my worries. “Even if we get out of here, how do we refuel? We lost everything in the car,” I sighed in frustration as I rubbed my temples, “Why did I have to drive us off that damn cliff?”I didn’t miss the scowl on Devyn’s face, “What did I tell you about blaming yourself?”I leaned back in my seat, “But we wouldn’t have been in this mess in the first place if I didn’t.”“You’re right. But does blaming yourself make things any better?”I remained silent. He was right. Complaining and blaming myself wasn’t going to get out of this mess, so I figured it's best I kept quiet. He cast a glance my way, “When we get to town, we’ll be able to make a call to Sven. He’ll send us everything we’ll need. We’ll also check in with Liam to see how things are going over there,” he placed his hand on my knee, offering comfort, “So don’t worry. We’re gonna get out o

    We stopped for food as soon as we found a restaurant. It was already approaching noon. The taste of Transylvania's food was just as magical as the town’s appearance. I could feel my mouth water with each spoonful I took. Devyn liked the food as much as I did—maybe even more than I did— because the moment he started eating, he devoured the whole thing faster than I could comprehend. His eating habits never ceased to amaze me, and I knew it had to do something with his werewolf appetite.A funny question slipped into my mind, and I blurted it out before I could think twice.“When you shift into your wolf, can you eat live animals?”His forehead furrowed at the unexpected question, “Sometimes I wonder what goes through your head.”I smiled, “I’m just curious.”“Yes. I can.”Irritation surged through me as I tried to imagine it, “That’s gross. So you’re carnivorous.”He arched a brow, “You were just devouring a turkey leg a few minutes ago. You and I, we’re not so different.”I felt def

    I found myself walking through a dense forest, the air damp and cool on my skin. The trees were so close together that barely enough light from the moon filtered through the branches. I came across a clearing and in the middle of it was a crumbling building. It was tall, medieval-looking, and despite its crumbling walls, it was breathtaking.The church.It was the first time I had seen the exterior, and when I walked in, the interior was just like the familiar one I had seen a couple of times in my dream. Immediately, my gaze fell on a woman; Elara. She knelt by the altar, her hands placed on her heart and her head tipped upward as she gazed at the sky. She looked like she was in the middle of a prayer.“Elara,” I whispered when I was close enough to touch her.She turned to face me, and for some reason, tears were streaming down her eyes. Just as I was about to ask what the problem was, she cut me off.“You made it.”“Yes, I did. I’m in Transylvania,” I knelt on the ground directly

    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

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

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.
