ValenI couldn't get the image of the event out of my head. What if you were not there Valen? What could've happened to her? My inner voice echo. I don't know how to feel again. The fact that I can't do anything when she's taking everything all alone on her shoulder. I want to find a way out. But I couldn't. When there's no way out. When the only solution is the ritual. How will I be able to forgive myself if something happens to her. When we told Mrs. Marissa about it she said it was due to the ritual. Her soul was called out. That even if I don't go there nothing will happen to her. I failed to understand that though. She was clearly getting herself drown. If I wasn't there she would have been..... I don't even want to think about it. And then she's heading for the second ritual again. I don't know who needs to hear it but I'm going there. I don't care. No matter what they say, I will follow her. Everything will happen before my eyes. A knock sounded from the door followed by the
GiannaI have successfully performed the second ritual. And honestly, I can't say how I was feeling. This time around, the pain was intense. Talk more of the cold weather. It was as if I was walking in an ice land. I know Valen will feel the cold too. I'm sure he'd want to be there with me. Too bad he can't. I felt somehow different today like some part of me was being taken away. It was a new feeling. However, when Mrs. Marissa and Adelaide asked me about it, I told them everything leaving no stone unturned. But what baffles me is the fact that the two didn't say anything only smile. That means things are going according to plan. “I can't believe you have a day left to complete the ritual” Maria broke the silence that resonate in the kitchen. We finished eating dinner few minutes ago. I was in Maria’s position. I ate like a glutton probably because I haven't eaten since morning. As per the instructions from them. I was to perform the ritual with an empty stomach. Imagine how. it wo
ValenWords could not express how I felt when I shifted into my wolf form. Like it wasn't an easy transformation, the pain I felt at the pit of my stomach. The bile that got stuck in my throat. The way my body was reacting as if I was wrapped around a fire. It was so fierce and difficult. I don't know whether it was due to the fact that Gianna was in danger. I felt it. The mate bond. It happened. I could feel Gianna’s scent. Are things getting back to normal? “Why do you have to go alone. What's the use of Vito” I could see the anger in her eyes. If it wasn't directed to me, it would be to Vito who's face was calm. “I know what you mean but I'm fine. Don't worry. You were able to perform all the rituals. Maybe the moon goddess will go easy on us”I heaved out a sharp breath before taking her hand and led us towards the sitting room. “Um.. Master I will be outside” Vito said excusing himself. I didn't fail to notice the look Gianna advance towards him. “Look Gianna. I don't know wh
GiannaFew months laterThe sound of wind followed by the breeze cascading through the window shows it was winter season. I wrapped the crochet jacket around my body as I rock myself on the grandma chair. It has become my routine for the past weeks. I rubbed my palms over my belly as a smile made its way out of me. "My baby mummy will warm you up" I muffled out as I went on with the action.I'm in my last month of delivery. The past months hasn't been easy. I won't say it was tough but probably it's not the best. A lot had happened in the pack house but at the end, peace reign. My thought wandered off to the event. It was still fresh in my brain. Like it happened yesterday.After I performed the last ritual, I went into coma for more than a week. I could hear and feel everything that was going on around me but couldn't make a move or open my eyes. All my families had been around me. Caleb didn't leave my side even for a second. Day and night. I could hear and feel his agony and pain d
FREYA I was standing close to the vintage collection of old antiques my mom hung at the left corner of the room. She always says how each relic and collection symbolizes a profound meaning to our culture and heritage. To me, they are nothing more than profound trash. But if she says they are helpful then fine.My dad is the Alpha of the moonlight pack, and my mum is his honorable Luna. My mom is my hero, not just mine but a hero to many she represents the ultimate definition of strength personified in a human, she is gracious and invincible. When people talk about the great Luna who set a cursed prince free and brought peace back to the land despite being just a mere servant, they mention Luna Gianna, my mother. She gave birth to me, Freya, when she had just kicked off her happily-ever-after story with my dad, the once cursed prince, now great Alpha Valen. Eighteen years later and their love is still blooming in all its light.My mom and dad have the ultimate love story about how the
ADRYAN I was being summoned by my dad into his chamber,"Who still summons people in this generation like they are some sort of slaves," I mumbled while taking the stairs that lead to my father's chambers."Apparently, your dad, the Alpha still does," Caleb my assistant said, and I sighed."I am only honoring his request or pardon me summon," I paused to air quote my last words and continued, "Because of my mom, I don't have any business with that man,""He is your father," Caleb muttered gently."I am just his heir, not his son," I stated bitterly. As harsh and unfair as that statement sounded, it was true. My dad and I had an estranged relationship since birth and it was further solidified because of the way he treated my mother.My mom wasn't his wife, she wasn't his Luna, she was his concubine. My dad is the Alpha of the sunlight pack. In the southern realm, there are three major packs, the Moonlight pack is led by its leader Alpha Valen, a once cast-away cursed prince, his heir
CHAPTER 3 Freya POV:He kept staring at me, as if he had just seen a ghost, he wasn't flinching, then Keenan came to my rescue as he was trying to get us a cocktail."Here peach," he said, handing me over my pinnacle Lada."Thanks," I replied, taking it from his hands and I saw his eyes traveling to where Adryan stood."Adryan," he called out.Fuck, don't tell me he is friends with Adryan, he walked over to where Adryan stood, of course, he is, as I saw them exchanging a friendly bro hug."Peach," Keenan called out as he walked back to grab me by the arms to introduce me to Adryan, if only he could stop for a second to look at me, he would see the obvious plea in my eyes."Peach, this Adryan fucking Miles Junior," he said and I glared at him, speechless, paralyzed."And you must be Peach," He said with a smirk on his face."No," I struggled to say before Keenan intervened."No, she is Freya Valen," he muttered, "Only I call her Peach," Keenan explained. And Adryan smiled."Nice to mee
AdryanBritney is a bitch and Luke is just being a dick right now. How are they trying to make her feel so uncomfortable, they were perfectly aware she was just in high school, probably just sixteen, they were just trying so hard to make her feel awkward. Maybe Britney daring me to pick a girl was aimed at me picking her, I have been flirt chatting with her for the past few days, maybe she assumed I was being serious about the stuff I told her on chat. And would want to choose her. I could see the disappointment in her eyes when I went for Freya and the surprise in Freya's eyes. I was skeptical about goingfie her because I am not sure she would go with me. And her boyfriend Keenan was obviously upset with him.Keenan and I aren't particularly the closest of friends but we share the same cycle of friends which I guess automatically makes us friends. I could have sworn that Keenan was single because he gives that vibe but when he introduced Freya to me as peach and seeing how he didn't
