Steffina’s POVEARLIER….I was wandering through the dense forest, searching for wild mushrooms to prepare for dinner tonight because I had a craving for them. Wild mushrooms are delicious to eat, and if you add a little bit of salt to them, the dish can become significantly more appetizing. I stood up and heard the sound of two feet walking. Then I realized that someone was watching me. Someone has been following me into this dark forest. I let out a soft gasp and slowly turned my head to see who was behind me.I dropped the basket of mushrooms, and looked around but I didn't see anyone. I stepped back with two steps, and stopped again when I heard a rustle in the distance. It felt like someone was watching me but I couldn’t see them. I tried to put all the mushrooms in the basket again, and suddenly someone’s feet were standing in front of me. I looked up, and he kicked my face. I tried to get up, but someone was behind me, trying to lock both of my arms behind. "Steffina, it's b
Elisha’s POV "Is Farkas okay?" I asked Arman while we were getting our guns ready. After that, Arman took a quick glimpse at Farkas outside and stated, "I think he's itching to kill the enemy because of what they did to Steffina. His wolf had been lonely and missing Steffina for hours."I nod my head, “Go, and talk to him. Make him feel better.” Arman went outside to talk to Farkas, while I went to my baby’s room, and saw that Nancy and Cole were staring at my baby. I said, “Nancy, Cole, Thank you for being here with us.” Cole said, “I promise that I will take good care of him, so you don’t have to worry about it, Elisha.” Holding Cole's hand, I said, "I don't know why you help me so much, Cole. But I'm thankful for everything because you're my friend." I then gave him a tight hug."He's crying again," Nancy said as she gave Kaiser to me.I kissed his face and told him, "Don't worry. We'll be right back. Don't cry, okay?" Nancy smiled at me, and she said, “Don’t worry, we will ta
Elisha’s POVAs the night fell, we waited for Lazaro and his team to show up. I was getting so scared about what would happen. Everyone is already in their position, and we are anticipating what will take place later tonight. I inhaled deeply and then exhaled as I continued to monitor the forest and all of the guards standing outside.We looked at each other, and I could feel Arman's excitement as he looked forward to seeing all the traitors tonight. I fix his tie and look deeply into his eyes. I fear losing this man, but I trust that he knows what he's doing. We locked our hands together, and I smiled at him, and said, “We can do it.” “Yes,” Farkas was already sharpening his claws as he waited for the front door to open. I let out a deep breath and sighed. I could really feel them coming, and they were already standing in front of the entrance door.My pupils dilated, and the staff member at the front desk opened the door. Lazaro stood there like a real devil, smiling in a mean wa
Elisha’s POVSophia laughed hysterically, grabbed my hand, and whispered, "She's alive, like me...There is life after death." To me, it sounds like she's not Sophia anymore. I stomped on her foot and yanked on her arm to throw her. She snarled at me, and her eyes widened when I approached her and kicked her in the face.After she let out a piercing cry of pain, I took a few steps back, at which point she regained her composure, stood up tall, and gazed at me with a grin. She summoned the air with her strength to control the situation, drew her sword, and pointed it at me. Do you think I'm scary, Elisha? We're sisters, right?" she asked as she came over to me without shielding her eyes. While running as fast as she could, she aimed her sharp sword straight at me, but I dodged out of the way and threw a chair at her. And when I looked around, I saw that the blood had spread out and mixed together on the floor. The hotel's employees—the waiters, the cooks—gave their lives for this figh
Elisha’s POVArman grabbed Jake by the collar and lifted him above the roof. Madeline tried to help Jake, but I grabbed her legs, spun her twice, and threw her outside the restaurant. Every door and window in the hotel was locked, and she knew there was no way to outrun death."You're stuck in here, Madeline." She stepped back and punched the wall to create a massive hall to another room, and she ran to another room while I was chasing her. She stopped for a moment and showed me her fangs. “Elisha! I have no idea that you can outsmart me, so come here, and let’s end this!” "Oh," I said, shaking my head. You have taught me that you cannot fool me twice, so thank you." When she fired the trigger, I dove for cover, dodging the few shots that were headed my way. When she ran out of bullets, she threw the gun and attacked me, trying to scratch my face.“You don’t deserve a life, Elisha! You better die! Die! Die! Die!” I screamed at her, “And you deserved another scratch, Madeline.” I ga
Elisha’s POVAs I screamed in fear, everyone stumbled and involuntarily threw themselves against every wall in the room. Everything broke, even mirrors and glasses. Steffina looked at me blankly while she put her hands over her ears. She grabbed my arm and said, "Let's go find them." We both run upstairs as we take our way going to the lift, but someone behind us chases us. “Run as fast as you can Elisha….” I wasn't aware that I had an open wound on the side of my stomach, which is why I felt a little weak. It would take too long to heal, because the freak who tried to kill me was a hybrid, not a human. I put a pressure on my stomach, and breathed heavily, and Steffina still grabbed my hand as we arrived at the elevator. We pressed the button going to the last floor, and the hybrid who chased us almost stepped in, but I broke his arm, and he yelled in pain as he lost his left arm. I closed my eyes and sat on the floor, "Fuck...Where have you been, Steffina? How did you get into th
Elisha’s POVI let out a scream of agony as I strained to bear the pain. Steffina extracted all the golden bullets from my flesh with her fangs and her bare hands. I shook in pain, and all I could see was hazy pixels."Don't sleep, just bear the pain!" she whispered. "You'll lose yourself if you sleep..." She smiled at me and took the last bullet inside. "You'll be fine in a few hours, but we still need to get out of here, and take you to the hospital." I stood up, "I'm not leaving this place without Arman." As she helped me walk down the hall, I opened my mouth to breathe properly and quietly cried. The second time we took the elevator, I put my hand on hers and said, "Thank you." She smiled at me, and hugged me. “Everything is going to be fine, Elisha….Baby Kaiser is waiting for you. You need to stay strong.” The elevator opened to the top floor, but we didn't see anyone there. I said, "Just find Farkas, and I'm going to find Arman." Steffina was hesitant, but I held her hand,
Arman’s POVThe scream of Elisha echoed through the building as I was in the midst of a fight with Lazaro, who had gone to the top floor looking for an exit. So I stopped chasing Lazaro, and he laughed, "Would you want to lose your mate just to kill me? Hey, kid. You need to save her! and let me fucking go!" Are you sure you can get away from me? Lazaro, no. There is no way out. That's right, I have the key to this building!" Lazaro's expression turned pale.I stopped and jumped up and down every floor to find Elisha. On the last floor, I saw her gasping for air as Jake tried to choke her to death. Jake was on top of her while she was on the floor and could no longer move. In a fit of rage, I leaped behind Jake and gave him a swift spin of the neck. When he opened his eyes in shock, I opened my palm and used all my effort to sever his head from his body, then kicked his lifeless body away from Elisha.I heard Elisha coughing in pain, and when I looked at her, I realized that she had
