“What will you do now!?”That was a very good question I did not have answers to yet but I could tell that time was not on my side as a lot of things already has been accelerated “Bianca’s part is simple. I will kill her with my bare hands the end” I said certain about that outcome“Beatrice you are not killing anyone” Duncan countered and I hated this side of him that was always noble and always forgiving “Duncan she almost killed you!” I said reminding him as he probably had forgotten that part “The girl is scared shitless trust me she has learnt her lesson there is no need to hurt her” if not for the fact I own him I would think he and Bianca has a thing “Besides you killing another werewolf unprovoked would earn you sanction and probably imprisonment from the council even if you are an alpha” he reminded me of the law“Oooh trust me this is very provoked” I said stubbornly “Beatrice look at me” he said probably realizing I was getting stubborn and This was the best way to ca
A nurse opened the door as Delphine stepped in before the nurse who then stepped out and closed the door behind her once more. I had told Delphine to ask for my room when she showed up and must have and that is why she was escorted here. Delphine walked in and stopped once she saw Duncan and I as we both had sat up but she must have been shocked to see us on the bed next to each other but she quickly composed herself and walked in“I brought everything you asked for”she said to me while lifting up the nylon she held in her hand“Luna are you not well?” She asked trying to understand why I and Duncan was in a hospital and given I ordered the meal and said it was my ward she probably thought I was the one who came in for medical help“That would be me” Duncan said trying to make her aim her questions at him as she was obviously in a state of confusion“What happened to you Duncan?” She asked adopting a sweet and caring voice while walking briskly over to Duncan side of the bed to put h
Mark was so engrossed in his thoughts that as Bianca spoke he heard nothing Bianca said and she had to call for him repeatedly before she could get his attention “Are you okay sir? She asked noticing his distraction “Should I get the doctor?” She asked obviously worried “No don’t do that. I am just tired that’s all” he said with a smile on his face trying to convince her all was okay“You know what?” He said suddenly sitting straight on his chair “ let us all call it a day, I am already too stressed and tired and I need to rest. You can go home now and tomorrow you can come back in. That would be all today” he instructed as he dismissed her and she smiled and bowed before she turned and left the room. Since coming back from the hospital Mark have not been able to focus on anything, all the meetings he had attended he was not focused on any of them as everything felt off, he felt off and everything that happened in the hospital kept replaying in his head as he could not shake off the
You forget so easily that saved your life, when everyone left you to rot I showed up and mad sure you escaped with me, if not for me you would have remained in the hands of those evil witches and wizards and probably be dead a long time now” he said to her pointing his fingers right to face accusingly “You put me in that situation Mark, you and your friend convinced me to get that orb for you and promised me that with it we would finally be together and dont you dare give me that crap about saving my life you know fully well if your brother had not convinced the council to bring me back that you would have left me there go rot, I am sure the only reason you showed up there was for your precious orb and not because of me” she suddenly attacked and Mark could feel the anger in her and then suddenly as if been switch off she breath in deep before smiling so sweetly once more like she had not just gotten emotional a second ago“Is that why you are doing this to me? Is this what all this
Mark joined Glinda to eat after she was done cooking and for the first time in a very long time he ate everything on his plate and still got more, when he was done he was stuffed and filled in a way no one from his kitchen staff had been able to achieve, for the first time in a while he actually felt content and at peace, he was so at peace he even contemplated doing exactly as Glinda said, that is apologizing and forfeiting the alpha title before he laid down on the couch and dozed off into deep sleep.Glinda watched him sleep and knew if she did not wake him any sooner she might just let him spend the night here and knowing him, he likely would not want that and so she tapped him gently forcing him to wake“Mark, wake up it is getting very late. You need go be on your way” she spoke softly as she woke him up.He yawned and stretched as he rose up.“What time is it?” He asked as he noticed h
BEATRICE POVI opened my eyes as I felt Duncan’s hands under me as he held me in a hug with our legs entwined, I mean our position was very damning but I honestly did not care if anyone came in and found us this way, i stayed a little linger in his arms as I listened to his heartbeat and I could tell my mate was still sleeping which was very odd because I can ever remember in my life any time I had ever woken up before him, it was weird as i pushed myself up to look at him and could hear him snore very lightly and i smiled at him, you would think been in a coma for almost two days would be enough sleep for him but yet here he was still sleeping so peacefully, a part of me wanted to think if he had ever slept like this with Beatrix but I knew I was only trying to find problem where there was none and so shook off my jealous as I leaned in and pecked him very lightly on his cheek as I then carefully untangled myself from him so as
BEATRICE POVI drove us towards prime meal as I intended to feed Duncan before taking him into the madhouse which I call my life and also get a take away meal for melly and the little girl whoever she is. As I parked in front of prime meal I waited like a patient mother as Duncan struggled to wear his shoe inside the car, if only he had allowed me put it on him when we were both in the hospital I wondered but had no choice than to wait“Is it just me or is the prime meal different” he asked stepping out“It’s just you” I countered and he smiled stepping out as well he just gave me a look and did not answer me, he went before me to hold open up the door to Prime meal for me to step in“Please play nice” he said I walked through“When am I not ever nice?” I asked rhetorically as I walked in but I knew exactly what and who he was ref
BEATRICE POVAs Duncan went ahead to pay for our meal and take and extra two to go with I took out my phone and called Melly to inform her that Duncan and I would soon be on our way and to be expecting us. After we were done and had gotten into the car I suddenly felt nervous and started having a gradual panic attack as I froze and could not move “Luna What is it?” Royce asked and I hated how easily the man could read me“Read my thoughts I permitted him as I did not have the nerve to say it out loud to him why I truly felt, and instead of just doing it the normal way he just kissed me as I did not expect it and as he withdrew his lips i saw a soft smile showed on his face“Luna!” He Said “You worry a lot about everything, first of all if your sister is as cool as you make her to be I think we would all get along and secondly I think you are overthinking the issue of you and I alone in a room together, just don’t over think it, let it just happen naturally just like last night okay
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
