last update Last Updated: 2023-11-12 23:59:31

Liam and Wilona were by my side as we strode to the WitchWolf’s Apothecary. For some reason, I was afraid of what I would learn about my fate but determined at the same time. I needed answers to why an ordinary girl with no will to live suddenly gets tangled up in some fantasy bullshit that I cannot run away from—even though I so desperately wanted to.

As Liam nudged the door open for us to walk into, my senses were immediately greeted by the sweet scent of the earthy aroma of the room. As I looked around, my gaze was immediately captivated by an array of plant vases, each a diverse species.

They each hung on every corner of the wall.

A towering bookshelf lined the walls, filled with ancient books, providing an air of wisdom to the room. The huge room was of maximalist interior and exuded a medieval charm. At the far end of the room, a counter stood with a woman sitting behind it.

“I knew you'd come sooner,” she said, cracking a smile. As we approached the counter, my eyes widened in

    The world around me began to spin and I suddenly felt unsteady. I wanted to throw up as my gut churned deep in my stomach. The realization that my mother had died because of me was too much to bear. All Because of some stupid werewolf destiny I never wished to be a part of. I lowered my head to the counter, my forehead grazing the cold surface as my body trembled in uncontrollable sobs. My sight blurred as tears streamed down my eyes and splattered on the ground underneath me.She had died because of me.“It’s not your fault,” Liam said, his tone trying to offer solace, as he rubbed on my shoulder. But he was wrong.All of this was all my fault.I raised my head and looked Diana in the eyes, “I didn’t ask for any of this. How much do I have to suffer?”Her eyes were tender as she spoke, “I know it hurts, but it’s fate. The moon god—“Bullshit,” I spat out through clenched teeth and I felt Wilona’s hand still on mine before she retreated. I was honestly tired of this moon goddess bull

    I was running in the woods, my breath clamping in my throat as I ran, and my muscles burning up as I pushed through the thick bushes and dodged the eerie trees with branches that tried to reach out and grab onto me.The monster behind me was moving fast and trailing behind me. I was its prey and it was hunting me, till it would catch me and sink his fangs into my skin and shred me into pieces.I wasn't ready to die yet.I could feel it getting closer as its whiffs became louder and I could feel its hot breath against my neck. My foot caught with something and I tripped, losing my balance as I tumbled down what seemed to be a very steep slope. I slid down with so much momentum like I weighed nothing and gravity didn't exist in this place. My body collided with the jagged ground and I could feel my skin peel off. I wanted to scream from my lungs but nothing came out.The sliding suddenly stopped when I fell into a deep pit and hit my head hard against something on landing. My vision bec

    Liam was the one supervising my training today because Wilona had some business to attend to, and I was glad about it. Since he was a man, he was going to take things easy with me.I was wrong.I sent a kick to his face, and he blocked it with his arm, my leg coming in contact with his rock-hard body.“Ow,” I groaned as I rubbed on my leg, “What is your body made of? Titanium?”He let out a hearty laugh that made my insides flutter and probably every other girl in the room. He was a cool attractive guy but I was more on the dangerous bad boy side. Liam gave off the vibes of a golden retriever and that made him so much more adorable.Speaking of bad boys, my mind immediately ricocheted to Devyn and what happened between us the other night. After he had practically yelled in my head, I passed out and by the time I was awake, I was back in my room, on my bed. It made me wonder how I got there, probably by carrying me.Knowing how cruel Devyn was, he probably dragged me through the ground

    A wave of undeniable fear gripped me as Devyn dragged me with so much that made me feel dizzy.I slapped Devyn.In front of everyone.He was always on his bad side, and I certainly knew the right buttons to push to keep him that way. I wasn't even sure if he had a good side. The slap, however, had put me straight on his worst side.I could tell from the rising heat emanating from his body as rage brewed within him, and from the painful vice grip on my arm as he dragged me along with him. Desperation drove me as I looked behind, hoping anyone would step up and come to my rescue. I wasn't surprised when no one stepped out. They treated this guy like he was God and feared him. My heart squeezed hard in my chest when my gaze fell on Liam. He had his head turned in the other direction like he was trying to avoid looking at us. I bit my lip hard, suppressing the urge to scream for him to help me.I had no clue where Devyn was taking me, or what he was going to do to me, and that made my cu

    Devyn’s POVI could feel her perceptible misery from the room. Her emotions cast a heavy shadow, intertwining with my own emotions. It weighed on me, causing my wolf to whimper in response to his mate. Yet, I shut him out.I felt revolted that he was acting in such a way because of a woman.A difficult one at that. But that was the thing about the mate bond. No matter how shitty that person was, it would be hard to resist.I wasn’t going to let her out just yet.It was what she deserved. And perhaps after that, she would learn to control her sharp tongue and know not to disrespect me. Though I had so much in mind to teach her a lesson, I found myself restraining for some reason I did not understand.Being locked alone in the dark was something I had grown used to in my past, and I knew it was enough to make one lose their mind. The thought of it made a shiver run down my spine as a haunting memory tried to resurface but I quickly pushed it to the back of my mind. The day was already

    The sounds of the shackles of chains unlocking had jolted me awake.A searing headache pierced through my skull as I struggled to rise from the cold floor. Surrounded by the devoid darkness, I realized I was still locked up in the dark room.How long had I been here? I couldn't tell.Someone was at the door.I sat up now, rubbing at my tear-stained cheeks. I had cried myself to sleep, the enveloping darkness making me almost lose my mind. The darkness was so intense that I couldn’t even see my hands or anything at all.My jaw twitched as anger coursed through me. If it was Devyn at the door, I swear I was going to bite his ear off if he brought his handsome stupid face close to mine again. The door opened with a silent creek, light from the passage brightening the room. I blinked my eyes in surprise when a woman came into the room. It was the cook, Lucia and I never thought I would be more glad to see her. She had something in her hands and when she walked to me and knelt in front o

I didn’t know what to expect, but I had a feeling I wasn’t going to like it.As I reached the door, Lucia was on the ground, her body rocking as she cried. My gaze swept the room urgently, searching for Gina, but a cold stillness enveloped me when I realized she wasn’t there.What the hell?I rushed to Lucia who was still hunched up on the floor.“What happened? Where the hell is she?” I asked her.She looked up at me with her tear-stained face, and began to speak hysterically. Her uncontrolled sobs rendered her speech incomprehensible.“Calm down and speak, Where is she?” I demanded, my tone firm as my patience began to slowly slip away.Lucia took a deep breathe and spoke up, “When I pulled the door open, she was unconscious. I assumed she was asleep so I tried to wake her,” her voice chocked with sobs, but I was in a hustle and certainly didn’t have time for a

My body felt like it was on fire, heightened senses jolting through me, and my hormones were all over the place.In other words, I was horny as shit.Maybe it was my ovulation period but I wasn't even sure that was the case anymore. It’s not like it was unusual for me to feel this way, but this time was completely different. My body pulsed with fiery desire, and my mind brimmed with an array of naughty thoughts.I had never felt that way before in my entire life.I managed to prepare for training and when I got to the venue, I was relieved to see Wilona was back.

    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

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.
