Sheera was pouring wine into a goblet when, compelled by some ill-fated urge, she glanced at Keegan. It turned out to be the biggest mistake she made that day.

The moment she found his silver eyes locked on hers, a sharp current jolted through uer, electrifying the air between them. Her hands quivered, and the wine spilled over, staining the tablecloth crimson.

"What in Hades!? Are you blind!?" The offended council member barked, pushing his chair back in anger.

Sheera gasped, immediately scrambling to wipe the spill.

"I am so sorry. Please, pardon me." She pleaded, her voice edged with panic.

The man continued to curse until Sheera was done wiping it.

Her heart drumming in her chest, she turned to leave with the others.

"Get me the head maid," Keegan's voice cut through the room like a whip, freezing everyone.

He spoke to the servants, but none in particular.

With their heads lowered, the servants whirled around to him.

His tone devoid of warmth, he continued. "One of you isn't suppo

    It was well past midnight. Sheera had an extremely busy day and was deep asleep when a continuous rap on her door awoken her. She grumbled, wondering if the head maid had another errand for her at such your. Pulling herself together, she forced herself to the door and found another maid when she opened it."Prince Ulric demands to see you. He's waiting at the entrance of the quarters," the lady announced before swiftly leaving. Sheera rubbed her knuckles against her eyes, wiping off the remnant of sleep. As she made her way to the entrance of the quarters, her mind hovered over the reasons Ulric would want to see her at that hour. It was strange.She found him pacing restlessly. He seemed desperate. Scared. Worried. He rushed over to meet her."Ulric, is there---""I'm scared, Sheera. Something bad is about to happen," the words came out in a rush. Ulric had not been able to sleep at all. Each passing minute reminded him of the fact that Keegan was getting closer to his death. I

    Sheera concealed herself behind the tree, her heart racing painfully, with a deep soul-wrenching hurt. Tears flooded her cheeks as she watched Keegan being carried onto the horse. Even the air was heavy with a foul sense of foreboding, and it seemed to choke her. She wanted to scream, to cry out, but she bit down on her lip, tasting blood, forcing herself into silence. She didn't make it in time. She wasn't fast enough to save him. By the time she arrived, Keegan was already down on the ground. He was... dead? She resolved to hiding behind the tree as she didn't want the others to see her and think she had something to do with the attack. They'd have to question her to know why she was there at that time. So, despite how difficult it was, she had to stay back and watch. ****While they rode on their horses, Sheera ran in her wolf form. They didn't stop for even a second to eat or catch any rest. They reached the Fortress in a day. "Summon Elke, Seraphine, Wulf... Every healer

    Elke ran back to the room. "How is...""It didn't work," she cut Sheera off, rushing to prepare another remedy. It was as if time had frozen, and Sheree's heart had paused it's steady beat for a few seconds. "It didn't... Why? Why won't it?" Her words tumbled out in hurried, ragged breaths. Elke ignored her as she got her items ready. "Cheek for the shadowbind spell," she instructed. That day, they tried several spells for hours, but none of them worked on Keegan. By nightfall, Elke had given up hope."What do we do!? We can't just give up, he's dying!" Sheera cried. For the first time, she saw Elke shed tears. "Our hands are tied at this point, Sheera. We are going to lose him."****†Malkar could barely contain his joy. He never thought a day would come when fate would smile so generously on him. He felt fulfilled. That night, he shared a drink with his mother. She was the only one aside Ulric that knew of the plan, and unlike his pesky brother, his mother didn't criticize h

    Each ticking hour was a torment for Sheera, reminding her of how close she was to losing Keegan. That is, if he wasn't dead already.She hadn't reported to her duties that morning, nor did she care about the consequences that might follow.The Fortress remained in disarray. More people still gathered outside, offering their prayers for the Alpha's recovery. It felt as though, the entire Howling Ridge was in mourning.l, and that realization gripped Sheera with fear. She wasn't sure she'd ever be able to bear the loss of Keegan.She had visited Elke that morning, and together, they repeated the same spells from the day before. But nothing worked."I fear he might not see another dawn," Elke told her.Sheera had cried until her eyes were raw, but even her tears offered no solace.Later in the day, a Keeper arrived with a summo

    Sheera had her hands wrapped tightly around herself as she walked the path leading to Elke's quarters. It was still far off, and perhaps, the walk would clear her head - if only a little. She'd just finished from Malkar's chambers where the cursed scoundrel had violated her. He had her undress, then forced her to take him into her mouth. Thankfully, that was all he made her do. But it was still the most degrading, vile experience she had ever endured. Recalling how he'd throat-fucked her, then forced her to swallow his cum made her want to throw up. She wanted to cry.He insisted on keeping Naya locked up to ensure Sheera continued to do his bidding.She was lost in her thoughts that she hadn't realized someone had been calling her from behind. It wasn't until she felt a hand on her shoulder that she snapped back to the present and turned around.It was Ulric. He looked pale, concerned, terrified. "Hey. Are you... are you okay?" He asked, even if he knew it was a foolish question.

    Elke was jerked with so much force that her head throbbed as she woke up. It took her a few moments to comprehend where she was and why Sheera was before her, practically vibrating with excitement. "Sheera...""I found something, Elke! A spell that can work!" Sheera's eyes gleamed with hope for the first time in three days.Elke's brows knitted in confusion. "R... Really? What is it?" She looked into the book, although she couldn't read it. "It's called pèplo tis Lítis, translating to The Veil Of Oblivion."Elke's reaction was instant. She gasped and recoiled in horror, her hand flying to her mouth. Every remnant of sleep she felt eluded her immediately as her heart began racing faster than normal. "What did... What did you just say, Sheera?"Sheera's brows pinched in uncertainty. "It's called the Veil Of...""No, don't repeat it. Don't!" Elke shook her head vehemently, her voice coming out in a husky whisper.Her eyes scanned round the room before settling in the book.

    It took Sheera hours to prepare the ingredients. Sheera was in so much fear, hoping it wouldn't be too late by the time she's done. The scent of herbs filled the air, thick and bitter. Hunger gnawed at her stomach, but she barely noticed. By the time the mixture was finally ready, dusk had began to settle, the pale light of the setting sun casting a faint glow through the small window. She happily went to Elke and told her to take her to the Alpha's room, only to be struck down by the woman's refusal."I'm sorry, Sheera, but I can't be involved in this. The spell is too dangerous, too much could go wrong," the woman said, her weathered hands clutching the edge of the table. Sheera stood still, disbelief clouding her face. Her voice broke as she spoke. "B--But you know I can't make it to the Alpha's quarters myself. Please, Elke, you must help me."Elke shook her head. "Do you not understand?Your secret could even be discovered in the process, do you realize that? The spell will r

    Sheera shivered helplessly. She had never heard such venom in his voice before. For a moment, and wished she could turn back the hands of time and never say the truth to him. He sounded like he'd kill her."You've been a witch this entire time!?" He roared, closing the distance between them and wrapping his hand around her throat.It wasn't as effective as it'd have been if it was Keegan choking her. Sheera almost felt nothing - it wasn't because it wasn't painful, but only because she had gotten too used to Keegan's cruelty that her senses dulled to the pain inflicted by others."Who are you?" He growled in her face, pulling her even closer, his breath hot and laced with fury. "This whole time, you've been with us, hiding your identity while wrecking havoc? It was your kind that did this to him. So, you know who's responsible, don't you? Heck, you were probably behind the death of Bara's son."&

    When Morginna had revealed the truth to her that day, Sheera couldn't believe it. She'd trusted Elke so much and had been hurt when she didn't pay her a visit in the dungeons.Elke's knees buckled, and she sank to the floor, her trembling hands covering her face. "It's not what you think." Her voice wavered."Not what I think?" Sheera scoffed, staring down at the crumpled figure of the woman she once loved like family. "Of course, it's what I know, Elke. And what I know is the fact that you betrayed me! You were... You were more than a friend. You were like a mother!"She looked around the room, taking in the familiar sights that now felt foreign and cruel.She recalled when she and Elke would work on herbs together. How she'd get treated here. How she would cry to the woman and get comforted. Even the nights she'd slept over.To think the woman must've been moc

    It took several moments for Keegan to reign in the tempest within him. But he wasn't done with her. No, he was far from finished. He had a search to lead and also wanted to know what she was doing in Howling Ridge despite her banishment. When Sheera told him what she'd discovered about Thessaly, he snapped, being in denial. "So, you take away my will, then return six months later to accuse my pregnant Mistress of being a witch?" He had asked maliciously. "I wouldn't risk my life coming here if any of these were false.""No. Maybe your life was worth risking because you think I'd believe you and punish Thessaly.""Then find her, Alpha. Find her and see if I'm lying."After a moment of silence, Sheera had added. "I swear on the moon, I am telling the truth. Thessaly is not missing. She sent into hiding, waiting for the Eclipse Moon which is only three nights from now."It took some more argument before Keegan gave into Sheera's words. he confirmed they were going to find Thessaly an

  • The Alpha's Third Mistress   What She Took From Him

    Keegan was just about leading a group of Keepers and warrior Hounds out in search of Thessaly when he noticed the Keepers dragging someone in. There was a small crowd behind them, indicating whoever had been captured was someone very important... It didn't take him long to realize who. It wasn't one of those moments when it felt like time had stopped moving and no one else existed but the two of you. For Keegan, time seemed to be moving faster than normal—the scene unfolding too quickly in his eyes, moving in a blur with the wind. Before him was the face of the woman he's made up his mind not to see again. It was the face of the woman he 'hated'. The one he wished to punish, the one that had tormented him all these months. She had her eyes locked on him as she got closer, and in that moment, he felt a heat that ran all the way to his heart. His frozen heart. His face twisted in fury, his silver eyes turning as deadly as tempered steel.Everyone was taken aback by Sheera's appear

  • The Alpha's Third Mistress   The Banished One

    ONE MONTH LATER. A lot had changed with Howling Ridge. Something different had taken place. Something dark. People were hardly ever happy. The Fortress was even worse—filled with gloominess at all times. There was just something that didn't feel good about the place anymore. Odessa and her mother were still missing. Keegan had searched desperately for them, but it was fruitless. It was concluded that she was either dead or had fled. A part of Keegan considered the fleeing part. He'd been very hard on her—physically, sexually and emotionally. He wondered if that was the reason she decided to run for her life. But a part of him rebelled against the notion. Odessa was not a woman to shrink from a storm. She had stood firm where others would falter. The thought that she might have run seemed like a betrayal of her very essence. He'd grown harder, the thought of everything weighing down on him—all he's lost and endured for the past year. The Eclipse moon was now but four nights awa

  • The Alpha's Third Mistress   The Mother And Daughter

    It had been a week since Sheera, Morginna and Ravyn embarked on their journey. The journey had been smooth, but it wasn't on that seventh day that Sheera realized her mother still had her powers. They'd been riding in the woods when they encountered bandits. Like they'd done to Sheera, they tried taking their valuables from them. The bandits outnumbered them, so confronting them wasn't much of an option. And that was where Morginna proved herself. To Sheera and Ravyn's surprise, she used her powers on them, defeating them easily. Of course she was a witch. It was just the first time Sheera was seeing her use her powers. When they'd finished with the bandits, Morginna glared at Ravyn. "I hope you know how to keep a secret." At nightfall, they camped as usual. Sheera and Morginna sat in front of the burning fire while Ravyn busied himself behind, laying on his back while munching on some berries. The mother and child were silent for a while, their eyes simply staring at the fire

    Thessaly shrugged, resting a hand on her belly. "After the hunt, she said she needed to go somewhere. She said she'd come to the Fortress later." Kalaril appeared surprised. "Did she mention where she was going?" "She wouldn't say. When I insisted, she snapped at me. I feel a little bad that she might have used me to get out of the Fortress without raising suspicions. You know, it was her idea that we didn't go with any of the Keepers or maids." A Keeper came forward, taking the deer from her horse. Thessaly took a deep breath. "I am exhausted, Beta. What I need right now is some soft hands on my back." Kalaril chuckled, nodding. "You go ahead, Thess." She bowed before walking away. .... By nightfall when Odessa was still not back, it became a cause for concern. Her mother wasn't questioned, but she claimed she didn't know anything on her whereabouts. Keegan ordered Keepers to go look for her. It was a thing to worry about as Odessa had never stayed out that late before. Thes

    "Kathryn, you must think carefully about this." Morginna urged, walking at a fast pace beside Sheera."There is nothing to think about. I must go back and warn them." Sheera's voice was resolute, not looking at her."But you told me you've been banished. They'll kill you if you set foot there!""I'll find a way."They were almost out to the part where people could see them when Morginna grabbed her hand, bringing her to a stop."Think about this. You do no longer have a wolf. Whatever Thessaly does will not affect you. You'll be fine, Kathryn.""So, what?" Sheera scoffed, pulling her arm free. Her face contorted in a mix of frustration and pain. "I have friends, people I care about! I can't just... I can't just leave them there to die!"She attempted to leave, but Morginna grabbed her hand again."Wh

    In all her life, Odessa had never heard anything more shocking—more unnervingly alarming.Releasing the arrows, Thessaly sent one sinking into Odessa's shoulder, and the other piercing her thigh. Odessa crumpled to the ground with a painful grunt, the rough forest floor biting into her knees."How does it feel, Mistress?" Thessaly's voice dripped with venom, the title 'Mistress' twisting cruelly off her tongue. "It feels like death, doesn't it? This is the pain you wished upon a pregnant woman. Anyway," she strode forward, her movements casual, as though she strolled through a field of flowers rather than toward her dying foe. "I will not blame you. I was indeed, an obstacle in your way and I'd have done the same. I have done worse."Odessa shook her head. The pain was fierce but not as scorching as it should have been, and something in her guts told her it had to do with Thessaly. "This whole time," the words were strained. "It was you...""Yes, dearest." Thessaly got close enough t

    Odessa and Thessaly rode side by side, their horses' hooves muffled on the mossy ground. Once they reached a small clearing, they dismounted, each taking their bow and arrows in hand."You know, as much as I enjoy this hunt, Odessa, I still find it strange that you wouldn't let the Keepers or even a maid come with us," Thessaly remarked, her eyes sharp and scanning the shadowed trees ahead with her arrow aimed.Odessa was only a few feet from her, her own gaze darting around the surroundings. "We are being watched all the time, Thessaly. Don't you miss this? Being able to roam freely without the fear of being watched and judged?"She heard a crackling twig and turned swiftly, only to find a lone squirrel scurrying into the underbrush. She exhaled, lowering her bow."Don't worry, we're strong. We can defend ourselves. And even if you are unable to because of your condition, I'll protect you." Odessa added with a smile.Thessaly laughed. She lowered her bow to touch her round belly. "Th
