"Katherine," I said as softly as I could when I noticed she hadn't seen me come in. She jerked up in fear, abruptly turning to the sound of my voice. "Woah, are you okay?"

Her eyes became really glassy and I watched a tear slip down from her eyes. "No."

I hated that she cried, so instinctively, I rushed to her.

"You'll be okay. I promise," I assured, collecting her into my arms for a hug, hoping that it helped.

"No. It's deeper than that. It's not okay," Katherine argued, shaking my head but I didn't care if she thought of her situation as too bad to fix, I was going to help her through it.

"What's wrong, Katherine? Did the doctor do or say anything to you—"

"I don't have a wolf form, Jade." She interrupted.

I stood still, processing the information properly before trying to say anything.

"What?" I questioned in confusion.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you it Jude all this while. I wanted to, I swear, I was just scared that you both would reject me and I'd have to leave the

    Katherine pov Her eyes were piercing, as if she saw through me at first sight. The smirk and amusement that grew on her expression was known to just me and I believed I was not imagining it. She knew everything. "Yes, I know everything," she muttered."Leave!" I yelled out, knowing the boys still stood around to listen to what Dorcas and I had to say. "I'm talking to the both of you."I listened carefully as their footsteps receded into the distance. "Don't worry. They wouldn't even hear the right things we say unless I let them," Dorcas shrugged. I narrowed my gaze at her, wondering if I would consider her a friend or a foe. "Katherine, that's a lot of backstory. We could write a novel and make a hit," she joked, picking a flower pot and playing around with it.Dorcas's eyes traced my every detail, and unease crept through me like a shadow in the dimly lit wardroom. "How do you know so much about me with just a g?" I questioned, my gaze fixated on her.A cryptic smile played on

    Katherine pov “What the hell is wrong with me?” I asked rhetorically. “Are you sure you are alright?” Jude asked again. “What, no. I can’t feel my legs. Why can’t I feel my legs?!” I panicked. Oh shit I could not move them. “What the hell is this?!” I screamed at him, not caring if I caused unnecessary attention or not. “Calm down Katherine,” he said to me. “Grey go and call Dorcas, she’s in the library. Sonia get Mr Jones, he’s in the hospital. Tell them to meet us in my room. Now.”They both nodded and sped right past us after Jude ordered. He held me by my waist and lifted me up bridal style, walking to my room.When we reached the room, he placed me gently on the bed. Brushing my hair to the side, he whispered soothing words to me. “Why can’t I feel my legs?” I asked for the umpteenth time. “Will I be able to walk again?”“Shh, that is how it is. Your body is trying to adjust to the illness. With the help of a witch and a doctor, you will be alright,” he placed a kiss on my

    Katherine pov“Oh no,” I gasped. The name Casto brought shivers down my spine immediately. If Talia’s mom finds out about me and spills it to Casto’s wife, everything I’ve tried to protect will crumble. Casto, my nemesis, will have ammunition to destroy me. I can’t afford that. Talia says she’ll beg her dad, but can I really trust that? The stakes are too high. I need to find a way to prevent this revelation, or my carefully constructed world will unravel before my eyes.“Don’t worry, I’ll tell dad not to spill anything to her. We all know she is a blabber mouth. Dad will listen to me,” Talia shrugged. “You believe he won’t tell her?” “I mean there has to be a good reason for you to do this and we’re faithful to you and your family. So yes, dad will listen to me. If he doesn’t, I have this potion I took from the shelf down the hallway. It makes you forget what happened a few hours ago.”“Did you steal from Dorcas?” I asked with wide eyes. “Borrowed.” She corrected me. “So can we

    Katherine pov "Katherine no!" Dorcas rushed in and slapped the tea away from my hand.I watched the tea pour down to the ground and the cup shattered into bits. “Hey, what gives?!” I yelled at her. “Luna spent money and time on that!”“I’m sorry but you cannot drink that tea, Jude told me you were going to make it and I had to stop you,” she gasped out like she had just ran a hundred miles. Why not?” I frowned at her as she tried to catch her breath. “It worked for other patients doesn’t mean it’ll work for you. You’re cursed, not ill. That tea would only make it worse,” she explained, rolling her eyes. “I came across a spell book in the library. If the curse is transferred than vervain may just not work, instead it will add more issues to what you already have,” she said. “That is ridiculous,” I laughed, shaking my head at what she was saying as a means of disapproval. “You have to trust me in this one. The only drugs you are allowed to take are the ones we prescribe to you. I

    Katherine Pov"You have got to be kidding me," I looked at Dorcas with a shake of my head. "What?" Dorcas asked, looking at me clueless. "You brought me here, to the workshop. Making me think that you have found a solution to my curse only for me to find out that you were talking about using my vervain for your own potions?!" I screeched angrily. "Oh, you thought it was for your curse?" Dorcas' eyes widened in surprise. "Yes! That is the entire reason why you are here, to help me find a substitute for my curse!" I replied, face palming myself. "You have a curse?" Sean's brow raised up high to his forehead. I forgot he was with us all along. "Um...""Yes, she risked her life to save a friend only to get infected with whatever curse the wolf was carrying," Dorcas explained mindlessly to him. "Dude!" I yelled at her. "What, he's your pack mate and you two act like you are brothers and sister," she shrugged. "He is my pack member I know, but does not mean I want anyone to know!"

    Katherine Pov"Katherine, you will not believe what Sean and I found!"Dorcas barged in on me again with the loudest shriek she could offer.The people around heard her scream and they looked at her weirdly. Sean was right behind Dorcas and they had the brighter smile on their faces. "Sean is involved in this?!" I glared daggers at both of them, releasing myself from Jade's hold around me and coming off the table. "Yes, I saw how hurt he was and I took his advice about looking at things from another perspective and you are going to love what we found out about. He was of good help,""Dorcas! Can you please stop making decisions when you know I would react wrongly to it?!" I yelled at her. "Katherine but–""No buts, you're being too forward," I corrected. "Oh forgive me that I am trying to help," she scoffed, getting upset too. "You are here to help, not Sean!" I remained angry and Jade and Sean watched how Dorcas and I yelled at ourselves.

    Jude PovI was determined to create a bond of my own with Katherine, Jade had done his part and convinced her to feel something for him. If we really were mated, I had a shot at it too. I wasn’t naive, it was more of jealousy. But I had nothing to worry about because we all were mated to one another. My plan was to talk about it with her, she was also mine so the attention shouldn’t have to be divided. Briskly, I walked down the hallway, already having her scent lingering in my head. Her room was close and all I wanted was to talk to her and make her understand things everyone does for their loved ones. The door to her room wasn’t closed, it was slightly opened ajar and at first it didn’t occur to me to knock, but when it finally did, it was already too late because my subconsciousness had taken over and had opened the door. And very much surprisingly, I met my mates right there. “What the hell guys!” I snapped, closing the door behind me so no one else saw them in that position.

My leg hit something hard beside me and it groaned. "Go back to sleep,"Jade muttered, holding me closer to himself. "It's morning already," I chuckled, turning to face him. We were both tangled under the sheets, bare naked. Memories of the previous night flashed through my hair and I smiled more. He had the cutest morning face, I wrapped my arms around his neck and placed a kiss on his lips. He kissed back, grabbing my ass and holding on to it tight. "Want to continue from where we stopped?" Jade muttered between the kisses. "Hmm, maybe," I giggled, wrapping my legs around his torso, in the process allowing his hardness to rub on my pussy. "Yes."I agreed, wanting another round of what went on last night. "Come here," he said, pulling me to sit on top of him. The sheets fell off our body and we both acted like we had seen ourselves l

    Epilogue Katherine Pov “You’re going to die with the child in your womb.”I stood stunned as Castro revealed the shocking news – I had a baby growing inside me, amidst the fierce fight raging between us. This discovery hit me like a thunderbolt, as it began to make sense of the mysterious waves of sickness I had been experiencing lately.I had never even thought about the possibility of being pregnant. My reduced sense of smell and sight had gone unnoticed, and not even I or anyone else had picked up on the signs. The realization that I carried a new life within me was both thrilling and worrying, a bittersweet discovery in the middle of our clash.I grappled with the conflicting emotions rushing through me. On one hand, the news of my pregnancy filled me with a sense of wonder and the promise of a new life. Yet, the timing could not have been worse, as I found myself locked in a high-stakes duel with my sworn enemy, Castro.How Castro had uncovered this information remained a myste

    Katherine Pov “A holmgang?” Castro raised his brows, laughing out loud for a moment. “Is something amusing to you?” I glared daggers his way. “I refuse,” he shrugged. “You can’t, even the council knows that you cannot do that. If you do, the entire kingdom will by law be forced to turn against you and pick a new ruler by themselves. Your head will be cut off and as will mine but unlike you, both our deaths are a price I’m willing to pay,” I explained, knowing that the consequences were too brutal for him to reject. His gaze changed from a playful smile to a death glare at me. I had fearlessly challenged my sworn enemy to a fight to the death, leaving him with no option to refuse. The stakes were incredibly high, and the outcome would determine both our fates.In my heart, I firmly believed that only two possibilities awaited us: either I would lose my life, or Casto would suffer his ultimate defeat. If I were to fail in the fight, I acknowledged that I had no rightful claim to r

    Katherine povSusie.My heart skipped a beat, and I swiftly turned around to locate the source of the sound. However, my joy quickly turned to concern as I noticed Susie's mother hastily covering her mouth with her hand, her eyes pleading with me to stay away. She shook her head and I could have sworn I saw tears cloud her eyes. So I stepped back, I stopped. Seeing Susie brought me a sense of relief, knowing that she was safe, but I couldn't ignore the fear that clouded the expressions of both mother and daughter. It sent shivers down my spine.In that moment, my disdain for Casto intensified. They had stripped these people of their freedom, confining them in a state of constant fear and oppression. The sight reinforced my determination to fight against the oppressive forces that had taken hold of our once vibrant and free community.I lived these few months in joy while my people suffered and even now that I had returned, I was helpless and they remained hopeless. I felt a mix of

    JADE PovMy blood boiled with anger as I watched the council's woeful display of decision-making. I couldn't fathom how they could be so blind to the consequences of their actions. Standing there with my brother and Jasmine, I had to endure the painful ordeal of hearing the council members' proposition.They callously suggested that we should return Jasmine, tearing her away from our side, and take back Katherine in a misguided attempt to avoid war and mitigate further loss. The very idea left a bitter taste in my mouth. How could they believe that sacrificing one person for the sake of appeasement would bring any true resolution?I clenched my fists, feeling an overwhelming surge of indignation. The council's incompetence enraged me. They failed to see the bigger picture, the human cost of their decisions. They were willing to play with lives, treating them like pawns on a chessboard.Jasmine stood beside me, her eyes filled with apprehension and vulnerability. I couldn't bear the th

    Brenda Pov“Stop! Guys! Hold on!” I yelled at the top of my lungs, running after Jude, Jade, and Grey who seemed to be engrossed in a conversation and did not hear my cry from a distance or most likely chose to ignore me.“What the hell guys?!”My eyes shot wider when I heard him scream. “She has something to say,” Nathan added, his voice probably louder than mine. I felt a blossom inside me and wondered if this was what people referred to as butterflies in their bellies. However, I had no time to think about how Ethan made me feel. “Oh, apologies. We were too engrossed—”“They have her!” I remembered how much I was gasping for air from the shock and fear I got from panicking. “Katherine!”My words were broken down, but I believed they understood the message I was trying to give because right one cue, Jade and Jude dashed right past me, towards the direction of her room. Grey stayed behind though, his eyes widened in horror. “Who has?” He was the only one logical enough to get mo

    Katherine povAfter what felt like hours, I finally reached the door. Stretching my hands out, I reached for the handle but instead of drawing closer, it drew farther away from me. It was being opened on the outside. “Well look who we have here!”I froze on my steps, chills running up and down my body knowing I was caught even before I could attempt to escape. The door to the barn had swung open and I just stood there in shock and fear of what might happen next. “I actually believed it was just a rumour that you were alive,” James said. James. He was one of the palace guards when my father ruled, he was always so quiet but there were times I heard him make funny jokes. “Is she awake?!” I heard someone yell from outside. “Yeah!” James yelled in return. I was caught already, I was done for. “Do as I say and play along if you want to live Katherine.”My eyes shot open in hope when I heard him whisper in a lower tone to me. Meeting him, I believed he had join forces with Casto a

    Katherine povYou lied to me…You betrayed me…wake up.They’re all dead…You murderer, I’ll never forgive you….“Wake up!”I jerked my body out of the trance I was stuck in for a moment. It was a dream, a nightmare even. Like my entire life flashed before my eyes, every of the tragedy. My head hurt, banged at every corner of my scull. It felt like I was knocked out by a boulder. Frey was the one who dragged me out of the nightmare, it felt like it went on for years. Something was not right but I could not pin point it. I could not even open my eyes fast enough because of how bad my head felt. Eventually, my surroundings started to come into view and it looked nothing like my room or anywhere in the pack house. It reeked of shit, literal poop and that was the first sense that hit me. My sense of smell. It was horse shit and it was disgusting. Unfortunately, I was covered in it and there was nothing I could do about it at the moment. I tried to move but I couldn’t, not just because

  • The Luna Queen's Revenge    Direction

    Katherine Pov7:39 pm…I was being watched and I could feel it at the bottom of my belly. No one was in sight but I knew something or someone was following me. Every once in a while, I would swiftly turn around but the sensation vanishes once I look towards the direction. The commotion from this morning had come to an end before it was even noon, everyone had gone back to their daily lives, and the victims were admitted to the hospital. To my surprise, the council had not called for my attention concerning Jasmine but I believed Jude and Jade had something to do with it. Once again, I abruptly turned on my heels, trying to catch the made-believe stalker by surprise but I still ended up with the same result. Nothing. “Are you okay?” Sonia questioned for the umpteenth time and I nodded in approval. It was going to raise false alarms if I had called attention to how I felt at the moment, especially because the entire territory was on its toes. She was due in about a week or earlier t

    Katherine Pov “Jasmine left the house in the middle of the night.” I blurted out, hoping to distract his attention from trying to seduce me. “Excuse me?” Jade raised a brow, retracting his hands from my waist and taking a step back. “Brenda and I found out last night and followed her into the woods,” I explained further, watching every bit of his expression, hoping he believed me. “You what?!” His eyes shot open and eventually turned into a glare. “You don’t need to get mad-”“What if something happened to you?” Jade crossed his arm before leaning against the wall behind him. “We did not leave the pack’s territory. Plus she just vanished into thin air and by the time we all woke up this morning, people lost body parts. Permanently,” I retorted, mirroring his glare, disappointed that he was more worried about my whereabouts than the safety of the pack.
