Thinking about the day that you spent well makes you feel a sense of accomplishment.
Skyler had the thought of going to track down Clara's other two mates and kill them before they even got a chance to set their eyes on her. But that would mean war. Not that they weren't already at war; but this would cause the loss of lives and it wasn't necessary. "The banshee queen would find a soulmate in three mythical creatures and she, shall choose to be with just one" the words kept repeating itself in his head and Skyler wanted to run over to Clara and mark her as his. He shook his head knowing it was impossible at the moment. Skyler walked to his office and pushed open the door. As expected,piles of documents were already on his table waiting for him. Skyler seated himself on his chair and buried himself in the paperwork. He needed a distraction at the moment and the paperwork was the best way to distract himself from over thinking.Skyler refused to rest until a knock came from the other side of the door. Without waiting for the alpha's permission the person pushed the door
Last night was a struggle for Clara. Conflicted emotions kept her awake and she laid on her bed, restless. Something wasn't right with her and never had she felt this way before. She found it hard to explain the way she felt. And what was it with the sudden heat that rose from within?. The tingling between her thighs was something she had never experienced before. It was all very strange, making her wonder if it had something to do with her powers. She sighed. There were so many things she didn't understand yet.Slowly climbing out of bed, Clara walked to where her handbag was and fished out her schedule, thankfully she didn't have any lectures to attend for today. Great. She had lots of time to sleep. Clara walked into the bathroom and tried to calm herself with a bath but it didn't help much. The heat kept increasing coupled with the tingling between her thighs. Coming out of the bathroom, Clara walked to her closet and searched for the simplest dress she could slip into, then she br
Laena watched until the car disappeared from her view and the smile on her face fell. She clenched her fist into a ball and bit hard on her inner cheeks to draw blood. Feeling the metallic taste of blood in her mouth. She spat the blood mixed with saliva on the ground before shutting her eyes for a moment to regain some calm. When she opened her eyes again, the usual sweet smile was back on her face.Laena turned around and started walking back to the castle. She made her way through the long passage and climbed her way up the stairs to the second floor. She went through another passage before she arrived at the pack's kitchen. "Good morning miss" the maids greeted in unison upon seeing Laena enter the kitchen.''Good morning ladies. What are you making for breakfast" Laena asked with the sweetest smile."We have bacon, mushrooms, beans, eggs and the porridge is almost done" Aliyah told Laena, her eyes focused on the pot of porridge she was stirring."I see" Laena walked over to the t
Clara, who had ended the call with her friends, was now resting on one of the sofas in her living room, feeling a lot better after talking with her friends. After a while, her eyelids became heavy, as a result of last night's sleeplessness. Clara Closed her eyes to take a quick nap when the doorbell rang but she tried to ignore it and continue with her sleep but the bell kept ringing.Clara rose from the sofa, walking towards the door to see who it was. No one came to visit her except for her new friend Melanie and Skyler, which Clara already guessed was the latter.She opened the door and Skyler was there on her front porch with his back facing her. He turned around when he sensed her. Clara felt her heart skip a beat when he turned around to face her. He was breathtaking and handsome such that Clara found herself staring shamelessly at him. She knew he was good looking but seeing him right now with his hair neatly combed into a man bun along with his neatly cut beards and not to men
Skyler kept staring at her, words failed him. He tried to speak but nothing came out. He had good knowledge of the wailing fairies but never had he heard of something like this. Only seer's are known to possess such abilities but she wasn't a seer. Skyler had his own theory but he decided to keep it to himself for now. He would do more finding to be sure."Is that all?".He asked her. I want to know everything.Clara shook her head but kept quiet. She bit her lips unsure whether to tell him or not. But Clara opened her mouth and told him '' the last dream I had about you was..was kinda strange". She bit down on her lips looking down at the floor " I found you laying on the floor unmoving, your body was cold as ice". Recalling the dream brought a frown to her face. She could still remember the pain that stabbed through her heart when she found him dead. It felt rain and she almost lost herself to that dream Seeing the frown on Clara's face, Skyler could already tell that the dream was a
Skyler made his way through the long passage and up the stairs, turning to the left side of another passage that led to Cressida's chamber. The guards on duty bowed their heads in respect as he approached the door to her chamber. Skyler raised his hands to knock when the door cracked open and one of the pack's maids stood in front of him. "Good evening Alpha" said the maid, she stepped aside to give way for him and Skyler made his way Into the room.Skyler walked into the living room and at the same time, Cressida walked out of the inner room into the living room. Both their eyes met and a doting smile formed on the woman's face. Skyler closed the distance between them and Cressida spread her arms wide to bring Skyler in for a hug, wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug and her smile widened even more."Hmm.. you are crushing me" said Skyler with a strangled voice."Oh shut up" Cressida smiled, releasing Skyler for her tight hug." Come '' She said as she held his hand and led him
Next morning, Clara woke up feeling refreshed. Getting up from the bed, she made her way to the desk where her handbag laid. She opened the bag and fished out the paper that had her class schedules. She had lectures by 8am and it was already 7 in the morning. She dashed into the bathroom and in less than 5 minutes she came out of the bathroom. 20 minutes later, Clara was set for school, taking her hand bag and laptop. She made her way out of her apartment. She spotted the familier car that belonged to her friend Melanie and she quickly walked in that direction. For someone who had a stalker tendency, Clara wasn't surprised to see the car. What surprised her was that the girl hadn't come to bother her for the past few days and she wondered why. As she came closer to the car. Clara took note of the girl's beautiful hazel eyes that stayed hidden behind the glasses, her curly brown hair rested just below her shoulders.Clara could not help but wonder why anyone would bully a person like h
Until Lucas turned around and found her walking behind them" are you trying to sneak up on us?" He asked.Laena gave a nervous laugh before quickening her footsteps to catch up with them. She said,"No, I'm heading to the pack house. father called me". Then she turned her head sideways to look at Skyler and she noticed the tiny cut on his knuckles that hadn't completely healed. She asked " are you alright, Alpha?".Skyler gave her a quick nod while looking ahead of him. Seeing how the Alpha paid no attention to her, Laena bit her inner lips and didn't try to push any further as she could already sense that he wasn't in a good mood but then he was never in a good mood once it came to her.On reaching the castle. Skyler was informed that there would be a council meeting in the hall later and he needed to be present. Skyler made his way to his quarters and prepared himself both mentally and physically for the meeting. He already had a guess of what would be the topic of discussion.******
The Commotion continued and soon A dozen of werewolves barged into the hall with blood on their body Clara was shocked and taken aback by the sudden commotion. But then she raised her head and saw figures clouded in black clothes walking into the hall and muttering spells and her eyes widened.The witches had come to attack on the day for the ceremony. They dae everyone wasn't prepared. Fear gripped Clara as she stared at the damages the witch had caused in only a few minutes. Clara panicked because all her loved ones were here, her friends, mother, some banshee and werewolf from far and near. This was going to be a disaster.Skyler on the other hand was shocked as well. He didn't expect the witches to be so bold as to attack on the day of the ceremony. His instinct kicked in and his first thought was to protect Clara. He quickly grabbed Clara by the arm and wanted to take her out through the back door but the girl was stubborn enough to refuse."No, Skyler. I can't leave. This is my
Clara woke you the next morning and as usual, Skyler was nowhere in bed. Clara climbed out of bed and went to the bathroom to ease herself before making her way to the living room. Clara pushed the door and walked on the short passageway and on reaching the living room, Clara was met with a surprise. The living room was decorated with heart shaped balloons and glitters, photos of her taken unawares were plastered around the room, roses spread everywhere on the floor and on one side of the wall was the world" will you marry me" boldly written on it. Clara's hand flew to her mouth as she stared at the place and just then Skyler walked out from the side and knelt down Infront of her with a small box in his hand. "You have been everything to me. A friend and a mate and I wish to have you as a wife and not just a mate" he said with a smile.Tears clogged Clara's eyes as she stared in front of him. Clara stretched out her hand" I will marry you, Skyler. Yes, I will" she told and skyler put
Clara had forgotten about the world and all its problems, all she saw was Skyler and the love she had for him. They continued to gist about little things. Skyler told her little things about his childhood, his mother and the pack. He told her of the day he shifted for the first time and the kind of pain he had felt then. Clara listened to all of it and in turn, she told him all about her childhood, highschool and friends. Talking about her friends, Raya, Gina and Kyle made Clara realize how much she misses them. Although she remained in touch with them through calls and text, nothing could be compared to their presence. She had known them since first grade and now everyone had gone their separate ways due to their college choices. Clara hoped to reunite with them again and enjoy their presence like before.Skyler could see the longing in Clara's eyes as she talked about her friends. She missed them. Skyler hadn't seen Clara go too close to anyone whether in the pack or in the banshee
Clara woke up to the beautiful daylight, last night she had slept with so much in her mind but waking up this morning, she felt things were a little better. She didn't resent Mira as much as she did yesterday. The lady had helped her in some way and that could be counted as paying off her guilt but still, she wasn't ready to see her or speak with her. Clara decided to let her suffer for just a little bit before she would set things straight between them. Clara yawned and stretched body on the bed but she felt a heavy hand on her waist. She turned around and was met with the sleeping Skyler, he was bare chest and his hair fell over some part of his face. His lips were slightly patted. Clara savored the sight in front of her as there was only a few times when she had woken up before him.As the day went by, Clara found herself falling deeper In love with him. Clara raised her hand and removed the strand of hair from his face and then she traced her fingers along his thin red lips."Have
Clara made her way to the living room where Nimue was waiting for her, by the time she got there only Nimue was seated in the living room and Melanie was gone.Nimue, what is it that you want to discuss with me?." Clara asked, making Nimue turn in her direction."Yes, sit down please," Nimue said. Ankara went to take her seat opposite her and listened attentively.Nimue took out the big brown envelope containing some documents and handed it over to Clara. Clara collected the envelope and stared at it before looking back at Nimue who gave her a Go-Ahead.Clara unsealed the envelope and brought out the documents, at first she didn't understand it until nimue started to explain."They are the deeds of ownership of this Mansion; the mansion belonged to the Shayne's. It was your mother's and now it should be yours. My family is only a caretaker like we have been for centuries" Nimue said.Character that the documents in disbelief" are you sure it's okay to own this?" she asked."Yes it's y
Clara continued being pampered by her mate. Clara had remained in bed for the past three days. Skyler would fix a bath for her and feed her and in the evening time, he would take her for a walk in the pack. Clara had wanted to go to the banshee mansion to deal with some things but Skyler didn't let her out of sight. He would nag Clara for leaving her bed when she was supposed to be sleeping. Clara enjoyed the pampering she was getting but then, she was bored to stay in the quarters all the time. The pack warriors who she helped break their curses also came with their families to show appreciation. Clara was a lot closer to the pack people now. She had also tried to speak with Pius but the man was cold as ever. During the week, Clara visited the welfare center but Skyler didn't let her stay for too long, she just delivered the lunch and gift and they were on their way back to the pack house. By the end of the week, Clara became fed up with the pampering and decided it must stop.Clara
Evening shadows deepened into blue and purple and the sky had turned to molten brass. The atmosphere was lighter as usual since calm has been restored back to the pack again. Skyler sat near his mate and waited for her to wake up, she had been sleeping for hours now. Skyler wondered how exhausted she must have been for these past few days and felt sorry for her as he was one of the reasons he had been stressed to this level. Some walked into the room and saw Skyler sitting next to his mate but Skyler looked tired as well." Alpha" the person called, making skyler turn to look in the direction where the voice came from."Lucas, why are you still here?" Skyler asked."I needed to make sure the warriors are alright," Lucas replied."Is everything alright with them?" Skyler asked."Yes, the doctor had examined them and they're good to go," Lucas told him."That's good to know,I'm relieved" Skyler said with a nod.How is she?" Lucas asked. Skyler turned his head to look at the sleeping Cl
"Alright, we will be waiting for you, we have so much to talk about" Nimue said. The ladies left the room and Clara followed them down to the car and saw them off. She watch Mira who was all curled up in the back and sighed.Soon after Skyler came back dressed in casual clothes and Lucas was trailing behind. He looked handsome as ever but Clara also could see the sadness in his eyes.Wait here, while I go bring the car" Lucas said to them before leaving.How are you holding up?" She asked Skyler who was unusually quiet. He turned to her" I'm trying to hold on as much as I can. I hurt my pack and I hurt you. It's it's.." he let out a sigh. Clara patted his shoulders" calm down, sky. You'd be surprised what ove can do and I know the pack loves you" Clara said to him.Lucas brought the car to the front of the pack house and Clara and her mate climb in. Skyler sat in the front passenger seat while Clara was at the back. Clara knew Skyler was supposed to rest after everything he had gone t
Silieus mietr anri kpocus"Silieus mietr anri kpocus"Both of them kept repeating the word and Clara felt a strange weave of power pass through her body and the sudden change in the room atmosphere. The wind blew through the ladies' hair meanwhile the candle lights were burning ever so brightly and on the other hand, the symbol on the floor had started to move and was now forming into a straight line. The witches continued with the chants and the line dissolved again before forming a pentacle. At the same time, Skyler's bleeding wrist was healing and his eyes had returned to normal.Skyler felt a heavy load leave his body and his senses returned, looking sideways,he saw Clara with another girl, one look at the girl, he already could tell she was a witch and what is a witch doing in the pack house and why is Clara with her?. These were the first thoughts that came to Skyler's mind."Clara?. What's going on?". Skyler voiced out.On hearing the familiar voice, Clara opened her eyes and h
