"Observation takes your eyes to look at your opponent with so much nerve within and notice his weakness..... Let's try it" He said turning to look at Rose and then me.
We laid out swords at each other and watched him do his moves, while we followed suit. The entire training was ongoing, when I felt something flare up within me.
'Lily is that you?' I asked hoping it would be her, but there was no reply from her.
All I could think of at that moment was to get air as I was beginning to lose so much of it. I dropped my practice sword on the floor and fell to the floor.

Kevin POVThe doors opened and my father was sitting on his couch, with our Beta and the rest of the members that made up the earlier horsemen."Great to see you are back son. I hope you are enjoying your stay in school" He wasn't interested in all the talk he was spitting and just gave him an apt nod."Why do you have that face on? You seemed trouble." I looked up at him and then my mind linked him to the exception of others.'I need to speak with your father privately''That's why I called you in the first place. So we could talk privately' He replied through the mind link."Alright people, I would like to have a word with my son" Everyone stood up immediately and head their various ways, leaving me with my father.Once alone, my father stood up from his sit with so much grace.I couldn't deny the fact that he was aging fast and his knees are getting weak."You seem to be looking at me with the same face that shows pity to a wounded lion," He said observing my reaction."Father, age

Kevin POV "Where is she now?" He asked ignoring my previous comment. I couldn't say it, I couldn't let him know the truth. The truth was that I had hurt her so bad that she had to run away. "Answer me!" He demanded with so much authority in his voice. "She..ran...away!" Those three words would cause me so much guilt. My father wriggled free away from my grasp and stood up "What sort of a person are you? Who in their right frame of mind rejects their mate? How do you think you can cope in the world without your mate." He was hurt and I could see it. I knew I had done the abominable by having to reject my mate.

CATHERINE POV"It is something I cannot reveal right now. All I know is that there is a rogue king and he would be coming soon." He stated.I felt like I was still in a dream. Everything that Williams had told me was too much to process. I was the chosen one, the one prophesied to save everyone from the rogue King. It was a lot to take in."What sort of training will I have to do?" I asked, my voice wavering. I tried to keep myself calm, but my nerves were frayed."We will work on harnessing your powers, and training you in combat," Williams said, his voice calm and reassuring."First, we must find out what exactly your powers are. We know you have the golden power, but we need

"My name is something you don't need to know," they finally said.I was even more confused now. "Who are you? And what are you doing here?" I asked.The figure just smiled again, and said, "You'll find out soon enough. But for now, I want to tell you a story."The figure began to speak, their voice clear and strong. "Long ago, in a time before your world even existed, there was a battle between two powerful forces. One was the force of light, and the other was the force of darkness. The battle raged on for centuries, neither side was able to gain

Catherine POVFor a moment I felt peace, my body felt at its lowest point, and in that moment, I realized life is meant to be like this; a place or a moment where you don't have to be bothered by anything. However, what became peaceful, became worrisome as time flew. It was rather much too peaceful not to even listen to the sound of my heartbeat or even my breath.While I thought through these things, a scream pierced through my ears and propelled me to shut them, almost immediately. The scream was feminine and the moment I opened my eyes to get a glimpse of where it was emanating from, I realized I was in the middle of a battlefield.The question of how I transcend to this place was kept at the back of my other numerous thoughtful questions. The sight before me was horrific-almost too horrific to be witnessed by an

Catherine POV"Whatever happened to you?" Philip questioned as he gets closer to her, pointing out the bruises I had not noticed. I stared at Rose and realized that she was only out here because of one single reason."The Pack is in danger!" I spelt out and she shook her head affirmatively to my statement."We never expected an invasion to happen, but it did happen and what was more shocking, was the fact that the person behind the invasion is the Rogue King. She had broken the age-long relationship the pack had and if I am been real, it's beyond horrifying, the things they did to our pack. Right now, Queen Zara is dead!" I froze at the shocking revelation.Regardless of my stance with Queen Zara and her prejudicial judgment, I still took her as a leader and

Third P.O.V The Alpha was seated quietly at his chambers when Williams made his way into the place. He knew that it wasn't the appropriate time to be there, but he also knew that if he didn't let the fyi off his chest, it would continue to dwell inside of him for a long time. Without turning around, the Alpha already knew that he was the one and even made a gesture indicating that he should step inside. "I already know why you are here, there is no need to beat around the bush to plead for forgiveness" The moment Williams heard this, the hairs on his back stood up and at that moment, he knew that he fucked up for sure. "Alpha, I am sorry I didn't tell you. I was just overwhelmed by the feeling that she was with me" "When were you going to tell me?" The Alpha asked turning around to face his son. "If there is one thing I want you to understand boy, is the fact that I see everything and yes I may be angry with you for not letting me know, but that doesn't change the fact that I am

When Kevin got home, he was glad that his mother had not arrived yet. He had painfully dragged the heavy pound body of the strange man, over to their house. At first, he thought of putting the man in their basement, however he knew that it would be foolish of him, after all the stranger helped him achieve by the tunnel. Never had he seen someone so weighing than the stranger and taking his body was equivalent to lifting dumbbell for workouts. He successfully took him into their apartment and unto his own room, where he believed he could have much control over. He changed into something much more casual and placed all his books on the table. There was certainly lots of assignments that he needed to accomplish and he was going to get them done as soon as possible. Before he would start, he knew he needed to visit the kitchen as it was the only place that could satisfy this growing hunger within his belly. He made his way out of the room and bolt the door quietly in a bit not to wak

As two women propelled into roles of authority, Lizzie and I took the lead in this initiative, trying to mend the broken strands of trust and create a unity of sorts.Lizzie and I met in the large study, which was filled with expensive cherry furnishings and bookcases that held innumerable books.

CATHERINE'S POV Every day that passed seemed like a lifetime spent inside the confines of my room. What had previously felt like a golden prison had become a painful expanse of loneliness over two weeks. Furnished with opulent furniture, the room had turned into a haven and a jail.With Ana, my darling little daughter curled up in my arms, there was only one thing to feel better in this stuffy environment. Her innocent look was blind to the struggle swirling inside of me as I attended to her needs, the burden of duty pressing down on me. Even with the room bathed in a subdued brightness from the glowing sunlight filtering through the drapes, the cold that persisted in my heart persisted.The loud ticking of the elaborate wall clock reverberated throughout the room, serving as a constant reminder that time was passing at an excruciatingly slow pace.

I was drawn outside by the scent of the neighboring garden in the evening air. To process the storm of feelings Philip's plea had unleashed inside of me, I wanted the comfort of wide-open spaces.Stepping out of the warm shelter of the evening, I was met by the expansive estate stretching before me. The sky was tinted pink as well as orangeas the sun sank low in the horizon, creating a pleasant glow. I took cover from the deluge of contradictory ideas on a seat tucked away in the garden, the calming sounds of the natural world providing a moment's reprieve.My thoughts raced with questions as I sat down on the bench.

PHILIP'S POV The sound of my footsteps reverberated across the lavish area, which was opposed to the secret choice I had chosen. Lizzie was sitting at the dining table staring at me expectantly and with anxiety in her eyes.I said, quietly but firmly, "Lizzie, we need to talk."A frown began to develop on her eyebrows as she lifted her head from her plate. Our dining room was spacious and well-furnished, which only served to heighten the significance of the talk that was about to take place."What's happening, Philip?" she said, searching my eyes for information.I sat down across opposite her, the enormity of the speech I intended to utter amplified by the oppressive quiet of the room. "I've accepted a choice, and that's significant because it includes the pack's safety and the possibility of Stanley's treason."Lizzie's eyes narrowed, a mixture of worry and fascination. "Exactly what somewhat choice?"Leaning forward, I placed my palms on the shiny dining tabletop. "I'm about to fa

Dissatisfaction echoed like spirits in the air, and the familiar smells of the complex told narratives of a pack in disorder.I couldn't stop thinking about Catherine's captivity in our house; the conflict between my responsibilities as an Alpha and a parent kept me restless all the time. I was having trouble sifting through the complicated web that had been created by the pack's requirements, Stanley's lurking danger, and Catherine's deceit.I could hear the pack members' disgruntled whispers as I strolled around the complex. With each second of hesitation that went by, the once-unwavering loyalty that held us together appeared to wane.

LIZZIE'S POVMy wolf was aware of my uneasiness and was restless, just like me. An eerie silence had descended upon the pack ever since Catherine's duplicity was exposed, leaving me to deal with the unnerving fallout from my choice to reveal her.I had known all along just what I wanted to do: expose Catherine's betrayal, provoke Philip's fury, and see as he banishes her, cutting the treacherous thread that jeopardized the cohesion of our pack. However, when the days grew into evenings, the anticipated removal never occurred. Rather, Catherine stayed imprisoned within our Alpha's house, a live symbol of the treachery that hung over us like a shadow.My thoughts were tinged with doubt. Why was Philip so attached to Catherine, the beast who had woven a false web to get within our pack? Was he unaware of the threat she created, or was perhaps a more nuanced reality at play that I was unable to discern?I walked erratically into the center of the courtyard, a raging sea of questions racin
