It was powerful stuff, I had no idea what to expect when I finally do meet my sister and I had a lot of possible reactions to it but this was by at the most emotional. The raw emotions that filled the room was so intense that I felt a tear as well in my own eyes making me sniff “I am sorry Bea. I am so sorry!” She said amidst sobs making it come out weird and hard to hear if you had no idea what she wants to say. I had no idea what she was apologizing for, if it was how she treated me in the past or for something else but it did not matter, I was bi mad at her, I could not beIn response I just hugged her deeper and kept patting her back allowing her to breakdown freely on me something I knew she needed at the moment and her tears continued until they slowly subsided until it was just sobs I could hear from her and it was then I pulled away to look at her properly in her eyes She looked older than I last remember and almost as if she was not eating properly, she was lean. tears
After our meal and I was convinced that Melly was done and feeling better i then called Salome and gave her directions to where we were so she could bring the car and come pick is up, it was time to take Melly back home finally, maybe when ever she is a little better and confident to go out we might go out again and that time I could take her around properly. Not long after I called Salome and have her directions I saw her call and knew without picking that she had arrived. “Are you there!?” I asked once I picked her call“Yes Luna” her voice sounded different but I did not read too luck into it. I then took Melly and guided her outside and there she was saw standing by our vehicle, she immediately opened the door for us to get in once we approached and we did. “Luna I have some bad news while you were away” she said once she got in and put on her seat belt. I looked at her and saw a panic look on her face. “What’s it Salome!?”“While you were away I got a call, Alpha Duncan has
Slowly the images of the woman he so desperately wanted kissing melted away and blew into nothingness, Duncan suddenly felt light and free as if I was dead and free of every burden he had ever felt. Am I dead!? He wondered, it felt that way, he had to be dead because that would make him feel that wayYes I was finally dead!? Is this how it feels to be dead!? He deliberated He continued to drift not knowing what exactly to expect and everywhere was so dark but he did not know if it was because his eyes were closed or there was just no light but he felt tranquil and smiled to himself Duncan was a man unlike any other. While most people found solace in the warm embrace of sunlight, he found his comfort in the depths of darkness. The mysterious allure of the dark and the secrets it held seemed to beckon to him, whispering tales of adventure and excitement.As darkness settled , Duncan's heart would quicken with anticipation. He would don his trusted cloak, woven from the finest shadows
Beatrice has no idea what to think, she could not understand why Duncan was hospitalized when last she left him he was alright and when she spoke to him last night he sounded very fine, now he was in the hospital. As if Salome knew exactly what she was thinking she hit the gas and started driving out of town heading back towards Duncan’s pack while Beatrice took out her phone to call Duncan Derrick and tell him about the new development, Derrick told her she should go to him and if there was anything she left behind he could easily send it to her in his pack. She thanked him and hung up the phone to get her thoughts straight. She needed to be with Duncan and if the situation was as dire as they both thought it might be she would need to be the one to take care of him. And maybe, just maybe he wanted her here. But he didn’t seem to mind last time either so this was good enough for her right now. after all this time alone he seemed to need someone. She decided that was a good sign but
Duncan suddenly felt light and free as if I was dead and free of every burden he had ever felt. Am I dead!?

The mysterious allure of the dark and the secrets it held seemed to beckon to him, whispering tales of adventure and excitement.As darkness settled , Duncan's heart would quicken with anticipation. He would don his trusted cloak, woven from the finest shadows, and venture out into the forest that came alive after sunset. With each step, he felt a surge of ener
As dawn approached, Duncan reluctantly allowed his werewolf form to recede, returning to the confines of his human self. Though he longed to remain in his lupine state forever, he knew that the daylight hours were necessary for rest and reflection. But as the sun sank below the horizon once more, he eagerly awaited the next moonlit adventure, knowing that in the dark, he truly found his place in the world and wished he would remain in the dark forever. She walked seductively towards me. Her features were delicate, her eyes shimmering with a mix of compassion and concern. Her skin glowed with a warm, healthy radiance, contrasting with the shadows that danced in the room. Strands of hair framed her face, gently cascading over her shoulders in a waterfall of ebony. But what struck me most was the unmistakable swell of her belly, evidence of the life growing within her. The sight filled me with a mix of wonder and disbelief, for I could scarcely comprehend how I had come to be in this
Candace could not believe his eyes right now and so he blinked and rubbed them to be sure they were not playing tricks on him but truly Duncan was awake and staring at him, he was not turning in pain as he was mostly doing and talking in his sleep he was consciously awake and he looked fine. It had been almost a week now since he was admitted into the hospital and he refused to wake up, it scared him as well as everyone even. Beatrice who showed up later on the day he was admitted, what was worse was that there happened to be a mysterious scar on his chest that appeared to come alive when touched and he did not mention anytime about that, even the doctor he went to visit the day before he was admitted said he never told him about a scar only about drugs for pain and that it was nothing serious. Candace knew his alpha and knew he was the kind of man that would hide something from others so the won’t worry about him and he knew that Candace was hiding something because he also went t
Duncan adjusted to sit properly as Candace made his way to assist him. Duncan knew that Candace would have a lot to say to him and before the thought settled Candace spoke proving him right. “I know you are my alpha but I am very disappointed in you!” He sounded more like a girlfriend than a beta making Duncan smile internally. “You were passing through unbearable pain to the point of passing out and you could not even tell me about it Duncan. Me your beta!” He was full blown scolding me as if he was my mother and what’s funny was I could not stop him even if I wanted, with how pissed and disappointed he was the best thing Duncan could do was just sit and go through his lecture. “You made me take you to the hospital as well as baba and all along I asked you if you were feeling okay and you looked me in the eye and lied to me Duncan!? You lied to me! I thought the bond we had was more than that!? How would you feel if I lied to your face.!?” Duncan knew it would hurt him more than
Bianca stood by the hallways as she still listened in on the alpha, he sounded extremely furious at what had just happened as he cursed and swore He cursed Them both and all the gods imaginable in his speech. As Bianca listened in she could not help but feel she was doomed, with what just transpired she knew she would eventually be in trouble, she was in a dilemma, at first before both parties ended up the way they just did she thought about staying under the radar and waiting for whatever outcome, at first she deduced that Olivia would cave and run out of the valley allowing her to find a way to corner the alpha and either make him marry her or kill his off with a way to become Luna after his untimely death, it was a nice flow if that happened but then again she thought of the possibility of Olivia sticking with Royce and they both seek a full out war, she thought if that happens she would lay low and watch for both parties to kill each other and expose its losers and winners. It
BEATRICE POV Yes, yes we should let it slide and leave with our lives, how is this even a debate, can he not see a stupid revenge was not worth his life? “You just want to fight him because of your hunger for vengeance, you don’t care if this hunger of yours kills you or even me, I guess all is fair trade provided you win in the end” I shouted at him, this man has a way of always getting on my nerves, always! What I said seem to get to him, he fell quiet the moment i said it and I suddenly felt very bad, I know this was an argument and I am very angry but I never wanted to hurt him“Do you really feel I don’t care about you or if you live?” He suddenly asked, I know I just accused him of of that but if I am being honest I do not believe it, I know duncan, I know this man and I know he would rather die than watch anything happen to me, he just proved it some time back when he took a silver blade to his chest, then he did not know silver would not have a fatal effect on him and yet
BEATRICE OV This was not something to debate with myself over, I did not need to think if i wanted to stay and fight for justice and my position as alpha or if I wanted to take Duncan and leave, none of that mattered one bit, the only thing that mattered was the man by my side and I know that in a full out war there were no rules, everyone becomes a target, I can live with dying, I have done it before, it’s not that bad except the part of eternal regret but what I cannot live with is Duncan dying, i will never leave in a world that takes him from him, Duncan dying will shake me to my very foundation. At this moment I know adolf was manipulating me, you don’t need an expert to see what he was doing and what he aims to achieve with it but what he was using to manipulate me was very potent, it would not fail and he knew it. suddenly it all made sense “Is that why you insisted I come alone and not bring Royce ?” I asked him suddenly getting his odd request. At first I assumed he put
Bianca really hates it and wonders what everyone sees in her, why for some reason everyone wants her approval, she did not matter. She is just inconsequential, a spoilt brat that does things out of a wimp, the same one who ran away from the villa simply because she was bored, there were werewolves in the villa who would kill for the opportunity she has and yet, time and time again she has abused and thrown away such opportunities and yet they kept coming to her. what made her so special?Why can’t everyone see she does not deserve everything she has?why can’t they all see that?If there was anyone in the valley who deserves to be treated as a princess, begged in for opinion in issues that matters and should be worshiped by all men, it should be her not that stupid princess!Beatrice was just some brainless little princess that had no brain and maybe just a little beauty and yet the way she manages to awe and control those around her was just annoying and wrong. Now she has the two
Bianca could not believe what she was hearing, the way he was accepting to killing people, the choking sound, the claim of mind reading, everything was off, this has to be some practical joke on their parts, they know she was listening in on them, they have to, that is why they are talking and acting this way, that was the only explanation that made sense of not then everything was just wrong!!!! Earlier today the alpha had called Beatrice to his home office and had instructed her to tell the kitchen staff to cook meals of different delicacies as Beatrice would be coming over for dinner, furthermore she was instructed to dismiss them all after that while she was to stay behind and assist, naturally Beatrice went into panic mode, she suspected the alpha yelling her to stay behind as a guise of assisting had to be Beatrice doing; Bianca knew Beatrice knows about her attack on her life with that assassin debacle, she knew for a fact the attack came from her and she even confronted her w
Adolf knew he had no reason to lie, maybe he is ever a little bit but the bottom line is he is telling the truth, this really is a bummer. He cracked his head thinking of a way out but could not see one, his advantage was that, they did not want him dead rather wanted him to pay and rot in cell or probably a death sentence, but they wanted it done legally. That was his advantage while he on the other hand did not care about such things as due process, he was going to get the job done by any means possible. Right now he wants to offer them a bargain, he plans on using Duncan as the extra bargaining chip, and probably the most important one and he would use him to make them take his deal. If they do take this deal then he would be in the clear, there was no one else to challenge him, maybe just that person who is trying to kill Beatrice, but by all attack the unknown person seems to have eyes only for her but if by chance he clears this hurdle and the unknown person were to come for
Adolf was totally taken off guard by what had just happened to him, one moment he was speaking and smiling and the next moment he was choking on his on words. Adolf massaged his neck at the spot where he was just choked, it felt so real, almost like someone was really on top on him applying pressure to his neck, if not that he had his eyes open all along he would have sworn Duncan had attacked him and pressed his neck. Adolf have always know duncan was a magician or “forbidden” as it is called here, after all he was the one who stole him from his parents and country but he never suspected he had powers. When staying with the forbiddens he learnt a lot about them and their culture, and during that time he came to understand those powers as well as he realized that though all forbiddens are gifted in the art of spells and spoken magic but very very few had the ability to exhibit real magic emitting from within the individual. To get a handle of your magic they had to train right fro
BEATRICE POVI looked at him and simply nodded to him, he instantly understood what I meant by that as we put our hands into our pockets and fished out our mobile devices, we both switched it off and placed it in front of us on the table surface. HE smiled broadly at the act, pleased, I could tell he did not know how we would have acted to that his request as well and his behavior was one that seemed like he just wanted to talk honestly and openly without any body listening in or recording our talk, I am sure he did not want anyone listening in on what he had to say and the confessions he was would possible agree to He gestured for Bianca to come forward with his hand and she did promptly“Bianca, please take these devices and step out for a bit, we want to have a personal conversation together and when we are all done here I will call back for you” She nodded politely and stretched for our phones, taking it off the table before heading for the exit, we all waited patiently as she l
BEATRICE POVDuncan and I briefed melly on what was going on. We told her about what we think happened to May’s mother, and about the impromptu visit we just got and how we intend to honor the invitation, we then tasked her with the protection of May while we were gone. It was obvious that the alpha and his goons had no idea that May was still alive and even though I was certain of that, but in the off chance that we were wrong and this is just one deceitful plan to get Me out the way while the make another attack on May, so I knew that I could not let my guard down. I instructed her to lock the everywhere and stay indoors and no matter what happens she is not to open the door for anyone except Duncan and I and with how secure the house was not, it would be virtually impossible to come inside without those inside knowing about the intrusion. Those were the instructions I specifically gave and I was confident they would be fine but then again there is duncan. All my plans to subve
