Cassius’ Point of View

‘You... you’re safe, love.’

I couldn’t get it out of my head no matter how many times I tried to push it to the back of my mind. It doesn’t help that the image of her pained expression when the knife plunged into her stomach and the blood coating her shirt kept appearing inside my mind.

Under normal circumstances, I might have been flustered at being called that endearment once again, especially since it was the second she did so, whether knowingly or not. But no, it didn’t make my heart go wild and flustered. It made me terrified— seeing the pain she felt when she was stabbed, and the immense relief in her eyes as she uttered those words.

I never felt so scared and hopeless until that happened. When the ambush occurred while I was still quite far from our town, I felt fear and nervousness over what might happen to my friends. But the terror I experienced when I saw Ronan stab Seraphine was unlike anything I had ever felt before.

There was too much blood comin

    “Have lots of rest, Cecil, Daniel. Seraphine wouldn’t be too pleased if she saw that bag continue to grow,” Maximus jokingly said to Seraphine’s parents, who chuckled lightly. “If you said it like that, well, we don’t have any choice than to follow,” Cecil replied in an equally joking voice. Once the adult hugged Maximus and bid goodnight, he spun on his heels and made his way back to the clinic room where Seraphine was resting. The door was left ajar, and so he heard Silverton and Seraphine’s voices before he could even come in. “— and when I love someone, I do everything to make sure they are safe and happy. I won’t let anyone hurt them; I’ll protect them with everything that I have.” Maximus froze at the door, his hand hanging in the air where he was about to reach for the doorknob. He belatedly realised it was Seraphine’s voice who spoke those words. When it registered in his mind, his heart dropped, and it felt like his whole world turned upside down. Maximus had

    Seraphine’s Point of View “On the third of July, we will travel to the Bloodmoon Pack for the public execution of Roderick Neil Andrada, Wally Abraxas and Ryan Alcantara, who stand accused of the following crimes: murder, attempted murder, physical assault, and trespassing on our territory,” Alpha Eros began, his voice reverberating across the whole Assembly Hall. “In addition, we will demand compensation from the Bloodmoon Pack for the losses we have suffered. To the families who have lost their loved ones, and to those who narrowly escaped death, thanks to their quick thinking and fast action. We will ensure retribution. We are not a pack to be trifled with. We cannot show weakness, because others will exploit it against us. Kindness and compassion have no place at this moment, or they will continue to target us.” “To not have a repeat of the ambush attack months ago, we will only bring five Generals and three Elders with us. The Wildfrost family will come along as well,” Luna Eu

    Seraphine’s Point of View“Can we ride a horse in the town when we return?” “Yes, I think? But you’ll have to ask mom and dad. They own the herd. Why are you asking?”“I wanted to learn to ride one,” I responded, just to have an excuse to ride a horse now that I remember we have one in our town.And maybe, just an excuse to spend time with Cassius. Alone. That is, if he’ll agree to help me. But I can work with that.“I can talk to my parents about it, if you want?” Cassius suggested.“Yes, please. And can you also ask if there’s anyone available who can teach me?” I said. “You know Jaren? Mr. Smith’s eldest son? I think he can help me—”Cassius stiffened behind me, then he scoffed. “Why would you ask someone else when I am perfectly capable of teaching you?”I hid a triumphant smile, restraining myself from howling with laughter. Cassius reacted exactly as I imagined, and he even said the same thing I knew he would.“Because you’re not yet of legal age, and Jaren’s a decade older tha

    Cassius’ Point of View I winced when I fell on the ground, but I tried to ignore the pain in my back and stomach in favor of checking the girl I was holding in my arms, even though I’m pretty sure she’s not as hurt as I am. “Sera. Are you alright?” Her face twisted into a grimace, probably in surprise rather than hurt, and managed to nod. I helped her stand up while looking around for any arrow that might be flying in our direction. There were lots of arrows, but they weren't aimed at us. The Generals, Elders, and my parents were fighting with people who appeared out of nowhere. Some of them are in wolf form too. I saw George hiding inside the wagon while Seraphine’s parents were hiding behind the wagon, where the three prisoners were lying unconscious. Seraphine told me that her parents are not great duelists, and their strength lies in their minds instead. So despite holding respective daggers to protect themselves, they chose to hide instead. “Come on! Let’s hide behind th

    Seraphine’s Point of ViewThe Bloodmoon Pack’s town was just a kilometer away from where the fight occurred, so it didn’t take us that long to arrive there.All the remaining members of their pack were tied up and sedated to sleep, and the Generals put them in the wagon where the other three were currently unconscious.It was quite terrifying to enter the lion’s den who had planned to abduct me and my parents months ago for their own nefarious plot. But having the Alpha and Luna with us makes it comforting as well, because they radiate safety even from a distance. Cassius helped a lot as well, with his steady presence that was always either behind me, or beside me. Even George’s impassive look was comforting. Any semblance of familiarity is enough to comfort me right now.“Who are you?” The man guarding the gate asked, his eyebrows furrowed deeply as he scanned us with narrowed eyes.“Tell your Alpha and Luna that the Silvercrest Pack’s Alpha and Luna are here, along with some Council

    Seraphine's Point of View“What a miracle to see you alone. Where’s my brother?”“With your parents,” I responded without glancing in George’s direction. I labeled the vials ‘adults’ and ‘children’ respectively, and set the basket aside. “Why? Do you need anything?”“Can’t I talk to you without needing anything?”I merely raised an eyebrow at him. He let out a put-upon sigh. “Fine. I’m bored with all the adult talk. I’ve heard too much for a lifetime already.”“What did they talk about?”George groaned. “I went to you to talk about other things because I had enough with the adults, and you’re asking me what they were talking about? Just tell me to leave, Wildfrost.”I chuckled. “I’m just kidding.”“Can you really find a cure?” He asked all of a sudden. “Don’t you have the cyaxin antidote project going on?”“We’ll prioritize this one since the poisoning had stopped when Ronan and his accomplice were caught,” I answered. “Vaccines will be easy to make, the cure is the difficult part, so

    Seraphine’s Point of ViewI sighed for the nth time, turning sideways on my bed and looking at nowhere. It’s been four days since we returned home, and four days since the public execution for the Luna happened. Alpha Desmond had been stripped of his place in the Council and had been banished to the rogue wolves. It turns out, they’ve been plotting behind our backs while they have shown in front of us how agreeable they are to everything that Alpha Eros and Luna Eunice were saying. It’s another betrayal from them, so our leaders didn’t hesitate to punish them accordingly.When they learned of what Luna Margaux did to me, they decided for a public execution. Alpha Desmond was banished to the rogue wolves because he tried to fight us one more time. She was supposed to have the same punishment as her husband, but General Van informed us that Luna Margaux had attacked him from behind, which almost cost him his life if it weren’t for his fast instinct. He just got knocked off when he thre

    Seraphine’s Point of View“Why are you still here?” I asked Cassius, who followed me inside my room. He closed the door, but did not lock it. He wordlessly strode towards my bed and laid beside me, wrapping his arms around me. My eyes widened in surprise, and my cheeks felt warm over his sudden clinginess.“What are you doing? If my parents see us like this, they’ll think we’re dating!”Cassius scoffed. “Let them think what they want.” He said, then he buried his face in my neck. I raised an eyebrow even though he wouldn’t see it. “Seriously, what’s gotten into you, Cassius?”He didn’t respond immediately, and I let him take his time to answer. Minutes had passed, and yet he only tightened his hold on me.When I thought he wouldn’t answer, I was about to change the topic, but then he beat me to it.“I just... missed you.”I frowned, giving him a sideways glance to show my confusion. “We were with each other for the whole duration of our trip and when we were at the Bloodmoon Pack.

    Seraphine’s Point of View“Do you play this kind of game?” I shook my head. “I played hide and seek and other chasing games with the kids back in our previous village, but not any ball games.”Josiah smiled charmingly at me. If I wasn’t so in love with Cassius, and if I didn’t know him from our previous life, I would probably fall for his charm.“Do you like playing tiring games?”Despite being cautious of these guys, I still tried my best to be polite and friendly with them. So to avoid being miserable the whole time I spend with them, I might as well try to enjoy it.Smiling, I nodded. “I prefer it to mind games.”Josiah laughed heartily, throwing his head back. “Who the fuck even likes mind games?”“That guy over there,” I responded at the same time someone behind me said. “Maximus, that swot.”I turned around to see who it was.Augustus Ferrell. The youngest son of the Ferrells, who were members of the Council and Circle. An old family too in this town, so they’re well known in t

    Seraphine’s Point of View“I can’t believe we’ll find out about our mates next year,” Leilani mumbled beside me as she sipped her grape juice. “We just met our wolf last year! How time flies so fast.”“It’s been just a few weeks since New Year, Leil,” I said.“Am I wrong? It’s still last year!”I shook my head, not bothering to counter her words.“I don’t want to be eighteen yet...”I turned to Leilani, eyes wide in surprise. “What? I thought you were looking forward to meeting your mate?”“That was before Luster confessed to me,” she flashed a wistful smile. “I wanted him as my mate. I’ve liked him for so long, Sera. I thought I liked Clove, but Luster’s just different.”“Are you afraid that Luster isn’t your mate?”She nodded. My heart clenched at the thought that they really weren’t mates. But... she could still reject her mate. I feel so bad thinking about it, but Leilani and Luster are my friends. I want them to be happy.“I don’t want to reject whoever my mate will be. I can’t d

    Seraphine’s Point of View“Are you an enemy... or an ally?”George blinked his eyes multiple times before he burst into laughter. “What are you talking about, Sera?” He asked after he recovered from his laughter.I raised an eyebrow as I crossed my arms on my chest. “Cut the act, George. My wolf is smart, and I know your wolf is aware of it too, that's why you didn’t attend my birthday celebration yesterday.”I just realised it right now as well. For the past few birthdays I had, George is always present. Aiah also told me that George wasn’t really sick. Wolves can smell that. So the only probable reason why he didn’t attend my celebration is because his wolf had told him about my wolf. It seemed his wolf had recognised my scent, I just didn’t know how they knew it was me.He was avoiding meeting me because he knew I’d found out about him being a time-traveler.George paled, but he quickly masked it by chuckling and shaking his head. Unfortunately for him, he’s obviously nervous. “I

  • The Luna from the Future   Chapter 86

    Cassius’ Point of ViewSomething changed in the air between my brother and Seraphine, but I couldn’t determine what it was. I just know something shifted the day Seraphine went to the Homestead with me, looking for George. She came to my room after talking with my brother, looking dazed and rather distracted. They became closer, for some reason. They don’t hang out as often as we do but Seraphine would visit him in his room before she visits me when she comes to the Homestead. She hasn’t done that before.It sparked the burning jealousy inside my chest. I don’t like feeling this way, but I couldn’t help it.Especially because my confession plan for Seraphine’s birthday was a massive failure.First, the banner I made was destroyed when I spilled my coffee on it the morning of her birthday. I wasn’t able to redo it again, so I decided not to do it anymore. So I focused on baking a cake for her— chocolate truffle cake. Daniel taught me how to do this when I visited their house. I didn’

    Seraphine’s Point of View ‘I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.’ I put the book I’m trying to read down on the table, groaning at my wolf’s incessant rant in our mind link. ‘Stop it, Aiah. You’re giving me a headache.’ ‘Because I hate it, Sera! He doesn’t remember you at all! That just means Azi doesn’t remember me either!’ I sighed, feeling bad for my wolf. ‘I’m sorry, Aiah.’ ‘It’s not your fault. It’s that stupid Maximus and Jax’s fault! They’re the reason why our mates don’t remember us anymore! Why we have to suffer these one-sided memories!’ ‘It will be alright in time, Aiah. There’s a lot of time for you to get closer with Azi. Don’t let the past ruin your chances of being with your mate again. Just do what I did, alright? I’ll help you, Aiah.’ My wolf seemed to calm down at that, though I could still hear her growling in displeasure and anger. At least she stopped her whining, because I couldn’t focus on what I was reading. Aiah got to meet Cassius yesterd

    Seraphine’s Point of ViewTwenty fucking minutes.I still have to wait for twenty minutes before my birthday comes. Twenty more minutes before I meet Aiah again.Just like in my first life, I wasn’t able to sleep properly as I waited for my birthday to come. It’s like the first time all over again. But can anyone blame me? Meeting one’s wolf is one of the most important events in our lives. The memories and feelings during that moment your wolf manifested are something no one can forget anytime soon.“Sweetie, will you sit down here and drink your tea before I tie you on the chair?”I pouted at my mother. But before I could respond, dad came to my rescue.“Let the child feel excited, Cecil. You’ve been in her place once. Surely, you’d remember the restless excitement everyone feels while waiting for their birthday.”I nodded in agreement while mom glared at the two of us. “Fine, but don’t do that in front of me. I’m getting dizzy from all your back and forth.”Saluting my mother, I he

    Seraphine’s Point of View“Welcome back!” I smiled while watching Cassius as he was greeted and welcomed warmly by our classmates. It only faded when I noticed most of the girls taking the opportunity to cling to him.My brows furrowed, lips pursing in displeasure. These opportunistic, two-faced girls! “What got you frowning so early in the morning?”I didn’t deign an answer to Luster’s question. I just slumped on my seat, closing my eyes. I could feel him and Leilani exchanging glances, and I knew for sure they were talking again using their eyes.Cassius wasn’t supposed to attend classes again until next week, but he told his parents he felt like he'd already lost so much time. And also because he’d be bored to death if he stayed alone at home for another week. I started attending classes again a week after Cassius woke up. I visited him two hours before I went to school— which means I woke early— and after class until before dinner.His mother cried when she heard the word ‘death

    Seraphine’s Point of ViewThe hidden falls was something that I didn’t want to share with my other friends, even though Luster and Cassius knew about it. I only showed it to Leilani so she knew about its existence, but I didn’t want to hang out with them there. The lake is our preferable place to hang out.For me, I feel sentimental about this place because Maximus and I reconciled here years ago. We rarely come here, but when we do, it’s always memorable.“Let’s go up there,” I said, pointing at the humongous rock. Maximus nodded and he went there first, helping me as I climbed up. “Go there at the other rock,” I told him.His brows furrowed in confusion. “What? Why?”I sat down and pulled the painting materials out of the paper bag. “I’m going to paint you.”His jaw dropped, a look of utter surprise on his face as he looked at the materials I was holding. “I... I didn’t know you could paint.”I shrugged. “Because I never told you about it. I rarely do these, so you should feel hono

    Seraphine’s Point of ViewI don’t know how long I was staring at the moon from the balcony of my room. I just came here to clear my mind, but the moon above caught my attention and I couldn’t keep my eyes away from it anymore.Lady Selene... are you watching over me? Can you see what I’ve done to the timeline? I couldn’t recognise it anymore because of all the changes I brought. If you’re watching me right now, I hope you could at least give me a hint if I’m doing things right...But no, she’s not allowed to do that even if she wants to. I huffed softly. I miss Aiah. I’m so excited to meet her again. If she still remembers our first life, I hope she’s happy that Azi remained the same. Though she might get annoyed at the fact Cassius considered another name for his wolf.I can already imagine her non-stop admonishment. I used to get so annoyed at her whenever she did that before, but I just miss it so much right now.“Raph.”I turned around to face Maximus. When did he enter my room?
