My blood ran cold as I froze in horror staring at the man in front of me. Those eyes glowing red with the potent scent of demons battering my nose made me realize the trouble I had put myself in. His voice was so deep and reeked of evil, which chilled me as I stared back, my lips trembling with no words coming out."It's good you fell into our trap so easily." He smirked, moving his hand to my face and flicking the strands of my hair that were on my face aside.The raven-haired man was huge, even in his sitting position, and the aura that he was emanating was something so intimidating and destructive. My bones and muscles were all weakened, and all my strength had been sapped, so that I couldn't even make any movements other than to sit there and peer at him.He was a demon, and I could tell he wasn't just any kind, but one of the high ranks. He was dressed in a dark suit and trousers like a normal shifter, and it was clear he had been tracking my locations and stalking me. He really
"Who?" I asked in confusion, peering at the car window and trying hard to see who this could be to cause such fear in these demons, including the one beside me that I sensed to be a very powerful one.The driver was trembling as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. He was shifting his gaze frantically from the demon beside me to the car windscreen. "I will show him why my name is demon Killian, the third ranked member of the demon clan. We have to fight him with everything now. The moon is covered by clouds, and the huge trees cover the atmosphere above us. We can fight together and bring him down! That will be a huge victory for us!!" The demon man beside me, whose i just realized was Killian, said to the driver who wasn't confident enough."He isn't just a werewolf. He is a Lycan, and not just any Lycan! The Lycan prince...My jaw dropped and my eyes dilated in shock at what I just heard the driver say. Cold chills ran all through my skin, goosebumps shooting up as I sprung from
As I kept imagining the horrible past evil done by the demons, the tears in my eyes dropped. My heart throbbed at the guilt sensation, realizing how those poor members of my clan died at the hands of the demon without me doing anything.The rage in me was bursting like a volcano, and as I peered at these two demons in front of me, I could only imagine their faces among those who destroyed my family and friends."You are crying already? We haven't even done anything to you yet?!" The other one, who appeared smaller, sniggered while the other smirked.The dark gray fog around them and the bright red glow in their eyes were just pulling the triggers of every savage power inside me."You made a mistake to come into the werewolf kingdom, because not a single one of you will go back alive. You didn't expect to meet the Lycan prince here. So unlucky of you to pick her at the same time I was keeping trails on her." "Stop bluffing! It makes you look more pitiful!" The raven-haired demon snapp
"What if she intentionally took away your mind to aid her fellow demons?" My wolf cried out in pain and anguish, and his words hit me like a bomb, sending chills down my spine as his words sounded so true.Ella just used her spell to keep me bound. I was tricked again by her, and this time it might cost my life. Love had failed me. Love had messed me up again. It had destroyed me!"You got what you badly wanted..." I slurred out as she held onto me, crying and shaking me. Those tears were fake. Her love for me couldn't stop her from accomplishing her mission for the demons. Even when she fell for me while working for the demons, it didn't stop her from performing this last enchantment to bring me down."Dracula, please don't die! You don't have to accept me, but please, you can't die. I will also kill myself out of guilt because I caused your death!" She screeched, caressing my cheeks as she peered into my face, her tears dropping endlessly."Oh...what a romantic show between two path
With full force and rage, the demon charged at us with a dark fog in the form of a fireball in his palms, ready to strike me down, but before it could touch me, I wrapped my hand around Ella's waist and swirled swiftly with the speed of light away from his hit, making it blast the tree behind us instead. Before he could regain his stance and turn to strike me again, I had unleashed a powerful blow to his belly, flinging him so hard that the tree he slammed on broke down.He stood again, trying to stay strong, but those legs were already badly injured, and even his hands were dislocated, their joints jutting at an uneven angle. All his body was shaking as he stared up at my huge figure in horror, holding his stomach as thick red blood spilled from his mouth profusely.I was in my Lycan beast form, having half wolf and human form, but this time, I had that fire burning in me, and my back was aching as if something was about to sprout from each side like pairs of wings. When I breathed,
Scarlett POVIt had been two days since we hadn't seen Ella. I left her at school that day; she insisted on returning Dracula's bank card, and since then until today, no one had seen her or known of her whereabouts.The alpha had sent several warriors to scout through every nook and cranny of the pack to fetch her and bring her back to the royal packhouse, where she would be severely punished for breaking the first and most important rule given to her, which forbade her from attempting to escape.Never had I believed she would have the courage to do something like this, knowing fully well that the alpha can easily find her wherever she hides, as long as it is in this pack and around the neighborhood. Her scent will always give her away.It was morning and the third day that Ella had been missing without being found, and that was something so shocking to hear.I had woken up from sleep but had no strength to go to school as I sat there on the bed wondering where the hell Ella could be.
There was a loud silence, and everyone couldn't believe their eyes as they all stared bewildered at her, especially Laura, who kept blinking and squinting her eyes at Ella, who looked so different than we all knew.She appeared so different, yet I couldn't put my finger on what had changed in her. Maybe it was the confidence in her entire appearance—how her eyes, which had always held sadness and dejection, were suddenly glistening with pride like those of a queen who was controlling an empire.Laura told me Ella fought with a high-ranking demon, but she doesn't look like one who went through a slight brawl. Her dress was still clean.She still wore her school uniform, but it was suddenly well ironed and fitting to her body as if a new one had been made specially for her. Her brown hair, which had always been messed up and disheveled, was now permed, gleaming as it flowed down to her back like a waterfall.There was also a pearl hair pin fixed at the side, making her suddenly appear li
Ella's POVI was almost in tears as I strode through the passage, heading out of the royal packhouse, a place where I was born and bred. A place that I once called home and found peace and love.My eyes were already wet as I fought back my tears, wondering how things changed so fast.The people I called my family were my worst enemies, who hated me so much that it appeared so unrealistic. I had been missing for two days, and my father had already arranged a meeting to discuss a celebration.My death was a celebration and great news to them all because their dumb heads thought I was a demon spy. They see me as a curse, not knowing that I have their lives on my palm. Whether this pack exists or not lies in my palm.Those two days, I had met face to face with the godmother of the werewolves. The moon goddess had taken me into the spirit realm, right in the heart of the moon, far away from earth. A place that had no sorrow or trace of pain. It was like a paradise where everyone would die
