All stare was directed at asher, including Evelyn's whose heart shattered like broken glass, she knew he needed time to amend the cracks of his broken heart, her heart ached with sympathy and a great sense of weariness sweeps over her sucking her energy with it as her eyes misted over.She watched his every expression clouded with a mixture of pain and disappointment, her face contorted as she struggled not to cry, like a breeze pulling paper, she felt her feet pulled by grief as she walked toward asher."Don't," She felt a grab over her shoulder, she didn't have to turn back to know who it was, his voice had become familiar as the moonlight."What are you doing?, he's hurt, now's not the time to let petty jealousy cloud your judgment," She frowned at him, drenched in sorrow and sadness, why did it have to be Asher?, it was as though bad luck hovered above him like a hound, never letting go his prey until it is consumed whole."I'm not jealous eve," He sighed, how could he explain his
"This very unfortunate incident doesn't affect classes," Jared told the students who whispered among themselves, the incident of death and missing persons had become quite prevalent in recent days. It made the human students wonder if there was a serial killer among them, and the supernatural, if perhaps a rouge lycan was on the loose."Classes would go on as usual, but, for our student safety our security team would be tripled, so be rest assured, such an incident would not repeat itself," He spoke with a blank expression, feeling no empathy for his dead students, and how could he?, after all, the devil in disguise was the cause."There would also be a night curfew," Mrs Charlotte chimed in, "At 8pm, All students are to return and remain in their dorms. Any students caught roaming around the school premises would be punished,"Leon listened to Jared with a suspicious stare, there were only very few people able to kill Scarlett, and only one had a reason to, Jared. Still, to what end?
He descended down the stairs, each step echoing through the quiet place that led to a secret dungeon. He walked through the cells with stone walls and filthy flesh scattered across the floor, chains fixed to walls, flickering torchlight from torches in iron sconces revealing the bones, skulls, and heaps of clothing worn by his unfortunate victims until he stood before a steel bar and a black coffin.Taking the keys from his pocket, he unlocked the cage and moved toward the coffin. The beautiful man approached in heavy, deliberate steps, his smile a flash of black decay as he opened the coffin with little force where a young man, with pale white skin, seemingly asleep lay in his slumber."Dreymon," He called and in an instant, his eyes flew wide open and a look of shock flashed across his face seeing the figure before him."How did you get in here?," He asked the man he thought was the famous witch asher. Looking closer into his eyes which held nothing but emptiness and solitude, he qu
He found her standing by the hallway, watching the morning sun through its windows, she was aglow with its rays, like a goddess dancing under the moonlight. He felt the attraction between them became a tangible thread in the air and his safety ropes, as though he was a trapeze artist and she was all that keeps him from tumbling down. To her side, lurking by the stairway was Liam, watching her as his alpha ordered. He waved his hands in dismissal before moving toward the petite girl by the window side. "Did you see a ghost little kitty?," He spanked her across the butt which jerked her in shock and instinctively her blue eyes wandered around for watching stares. To her relief, there wasn't as only a few students wandered through the hallways."You can't do that," She scolded Leon. One touch and it was over, it was always that way with Leon. She felt electricity in her skin, hormones shutting down her higher brain and the rise of her animal self luring her into the depths of all passi
"So? what is it you needed to talk about?" His gaze was keen on the beautiful woman taking a seat at the opposite side of the table. Charlotte rested her head against the headrest and let out a frustrated sigh before responding"You can come out now," On cue and from within the shadows emerged the silhouette figure of a long haired blonde middle-aged man, stepping into the sunlight, his features became more defined and visible to Leon who immediately recognized who it was."Mr Duke," The ruggedly handsome scarred face across his left eye down to his chin looked impatient and intimidating. His blonde hair had been tied in a bun and his build towered over Leon's. The man developed a fearsome reputation for intimidating people with his hulk-like build and dead stare that could reach the depths of one's soul."What brings you here Mr Duke?," He asked. His tone was more respectful than usual which irked the witch. Still, she couldn't fault him, Mr Duke, before his retirement was a famous L
"Evelyn!" She heard the call from Jeremy a few meters away from her, beside him was Matilda, she wore a frown as they locked each other's gaze. It wasn't difficult to tell she hadn't forgiven her for keeping Leon's mate a secret."I'll see you later at the dorm," Anabelle quickly excused herself, she felt uncomfortable by Matilda's presence, one of the girls who thrived in her misery."We just heard the news, where's Leon?," Jeremy asked after Annabelle's exit, on their way to the school hall, they had heard the news of Scarlett's mysterious death. The news came as a shock to Jeremy who found it difficult to believe such a powerful witch could be killed and like Leon, he suspected Jared Donovan had something to do with it."He's at Mrs Charlotte's office," She replied earning a scoff from Matilda and a frustrated sigh from Evelyn, how could she tell Matilda she was Leon's mate knowing how obsessive and heads over heels in love she was with Leon?. Nonetheless, knowing Matilda she was c
"Oh there's Leon," Said Jeremy nudging evelyn on the shoulder. In a flash, her face was turned sideways, watching the boy she loved approach her with a gorgeous smile breaking between his lips. She doubt she could ever get used to his enchanting beauty that possibly was crafted and sculpted for seduction."Sorry if I kept you waiting," He pinched her on the cheek as he gazed affectionately at her, he had the look of an astronaut staring at space for the first time, awe, admiration, and satisfaction. "It's fine, you didn't take long," She brushed off his concerns as her heart soared over the stars in delight at his touch, "What happened at her office?, what did she need to speak to you about?,""I'm guessing she has the same idea as you?," Jeremy chimed in, his question earned a frown from Matilda "What idea?," she asked"To kill Leon's bastard brother, Jared," He answered, while both girls present bulged their eyes in a moment of shock which quickly morphed into an expression of con
Her jaws dropped, lips shiver but unable to speak, eyes sparkling and gleaming wide open, staring as gleeful as a lottery winner, and her feet halted in the green grass, she had stepped through the portal to feast on the most beautiful mansion she had ever seen. Suddenly his feet stopped, and he turned his head towards Evelyn who had her eyes fixed on the beauty of the St Donovan's castle. Each corner of the wall was beautifully carved, and the designs were made with complete care. With the combination of sky blue and spotless white paint, it was looking like a palace from a fairyland. Greeneries around the mansion added a natural feel and more beauty to it. "Wow it's magnificent," She exclaimed stunned beyond words at the magnificent sight of the mansion. The mansion was surrounded by massive golden gates which separated the castle from the outside world and secluded it into its own fantasy-like world."This is your home?, you grew up here?," She asked in astonishment. It explained
The sound of the wedding march filled the air, signaling the arrival of the bride. Her soon-to-be husband, Leon stood at the altar next to his father Richard. He could feel his heart beating faster with every step that brought her closer.Suddenly, the double doors at the back of the chapel swung open, and there she was. She appeared almost ethereal, her white gown flowing elegantly behind her as she glided down the aisle next to Annabelle who decided to walk the aisle with her. She was the closest she had to family. Like an elder sister and a mother. After graduating St Donovan she moved in with the white witch who taught her a lot about herself and her Abilities.Alexander had also visited often, and although he couldn't make it today as his presence would upset the visitors, he had sent gift cards and well wishesHer hair was pinned back in an intricate updo, with pearls and diamonds sparkling in the light. She was as beautiful as ever, was what Leon and Asher thought.As she walked
Eight years LaterThe sun was just beginning to set over the rolling hills behind the wedding venue, casting a soft, warm light over the scene before them. The air was buzzing with excitement as friends and family gathered to celebrate the union of Leon and Evelyn. The Alpha and Luna of the Lycan world.Running through the crowd, a little boy with white hair crashed into the leg of a tall man with a fairly muscular build. Rubbing his head to soothe the pain the boy lifted his head towards the Man dressed in a white suit which complemented his long beautiful white hair. He was the leader of the witch's clan. He was Asher."You have white hair like me!" The boy slanted his gaze as though inspecting the beautiful man who smiled at him. It was the second time they met. The first was during his birth, six years ago. The boy however wore a curious gaze, the only other person having the same hair color as him was his mother."Who are you?" He asked while Asher crouched down and gently ruffle
The high morning sun peeked through the evergreen tops and the forest around the small wooden cabin which came to life once more.It was a beautiful morning, the blue sky having a mixture of scarlet red, orange, and a bleach-like yellow beaming against the hurried water of the river that led into the waterfall shining like flakes of gold floating on top of the whitening water.With The chilly wind running through her veins warmed as she squinted her blurry gaze and watched the light dance across the sky in an effervescent parade. The leaves and chirping birds sounded like a choir as they swayed in unison.she closed her eyes taking deep breaths before fluttering them open once again, stepping down with her feet landing on the soft wooden floors, stretching her arms and legs before letting out a moan as she gazed through the window overlooking the peaceful view of the forest, one she was certain wasn't at St Donovan.....Forest, she exclaimed with widened eyes."How did I get here?." sh
"Alexander!" Evelyn exclaimed letting out a sigh of relief watching the Elder move towards her with his hands placed against his chest. He seemed to be in pain. She presumed they were scars inflicted by Asher during their clash. Leon and Asher sighting Alex quickly pushed Evelyn aside and took an offensive stance. Her eyes watered as she felt sunshine brimming in her core at their reactions. She felt lucky and blessed to have met both boys in her lifetime. Asher was like a brother and Leon her lover. She would do every and anything for them."It's okay, he's not going to hurt me," Evelyn told the boys"You don't know that for sure," Asher replied with a frown while the elder let out a tired sigh"It's good to have you back young witch," He said breaking a creepy smile, "You can relax, I'm not going to hurt the last of my kind and kill all hopes for our survival, I'm only here to say goodbye,"Liam sighed in relief at the Elder's words. He doubted he could take any more battles. He ha
The sky had been dark and ominous for hours, casting a pall over the landscape of St Donovan, some students believed it was cursed, and others believed it was a sign of a looming disaster and the realization of the dream of the red-winged angel.As the first rays of sunlight began to peek over the horizon, the darkness slowly receded. The clouds that had been so heavy and oppressive began to thin out, revealing the bright blue sky that had been hidden for so long.Birds soon filled the air, their songs joyous and full of life. The wind picked up, blowing away the last remnants of the storm that had plagued the school for so long.As the daylight grew stronger, the colors of St Donovan were revealed once more. The green grass, the brown soil, and the vibrant hues of wildflowers began to take on a renewed brilliance as if the natural world was celebrating the breaking of the curse.Drawn out from the bunker, the students looked up in awe at the transformation taking place around them as
The devil's breath came in short, shallow gasps, and his heart raced uncontrollably in his chest. His body was covered in ice, and he couldn't seem to shake the overwhelming feeling of dread that had taken hold of him. He knew that he was in danger, knew that his life was at risk, but even that knowledge seemed to be slipping away from him. His thoughts were fractured, and his mind seemed to be working against him."NO! YOU CANT WIN, I'M JARED DONOVAN," He yelled with a glare at the white witch. He clutched at his chest, willing his heart to slow down. But his efforts were in vain, and the fear of being trapped in a cold state for eternity continued to snake its way through his body. He tried to hold onto something, anything, but his grip was tenuous at best."LEONARD!" He called for his brother, "PLEASE DON'T LET HIM DO THIS, YOU CAN'T CONDEMN YOUR BROTHER TO SUCH AN HORRIBLE FATE," He begged Leon who turned a blind eye and deaf ear to his pleas"Asher wait! I can make Evelyn yours,
They knew they had to act fast, there wasn't time to think of a different solution or a way out of their predicament as Jared slowly got free of his frozen state. The ice around him had started to melt and he kept his gaze on Evelyn like a hungry predator. They knew she would be his first victim once he got free of his restraint. They couldn't let it happen. "Fuck it, let's do it unless you are too scared virgin," Leon taunted with a smirk while Asher narrowed his gaze dangerously at him. How strange, he felt both excited and annoyed at Leon's teasing remarks. Wasn't he supposed to be different? didn't he plan to kill Leon when this was over? didn't he hate Leon for stealing the love of his life?Perhaps it was the idea of dying that repressed his feeling of anger and vengeance. He faced Evelyn who stood afar with her hands clasped together in worry. Like Asher Leon turned his sights to Evelyn and as their eyes met, a softness washed over their features. It was a loving gaze, one th
So sorry for the duplicated words in the previous chapter guys, had a problem while publishing, would be fixed soon.The ground trembled as a portal from hell opened up, the fiery red light illuminating the surrounding area as the demonic creatures began to spill out. Evelyn stood at the edge of the portal, her eyes closed in concentration as she began to channel the magic within her."Evelyn stay back!" Leon yelled at her, however, he couldn't move as he had to exert his whole strength to pin Jared to the ground, "What the fuck is she doing?""Wait!" Asher told Leon, he could sense a surge of magic brimming within her. All they could do was watch and hope she hadn't lost her mind Evelyn took a deep breath, her fingers dancing in the air as she drew intricate symbols, her hair whipping around her face as the wind picked up around her. Her focus was unflinching as she directed the gathered magic toward the portal. She couldn't tell where she had found the confidence. Perhaps her fear
With his hands and claws over her neck, Evelyn knew she was in trouble and was staring death right in the face. she felt her heart racing as he searched through her pockets for any weaponry she could find, unfortunately, it was nowhere to be found.Panic began to set in as she thought of all the possible scenarios for this ending. One moment she had been next to dreymon on the ground and the next Jared had a hold around her neck. It happened all too fast for her to realize Jared had taken control of Dreymon's corpse.Using her powers wasn't an option knowing its risks. She had already made use of it earlier, she couldn't risk doing it again."He shifts bodies," Leon told Asher who furrowed his brows knowing the severity of it. How could he kill a creature who shifts into a different body when killed?, "My guess is both dreymon and Katherine were turned by Jared which means he probably can shift into creatures with his blood running through their veins,""Fuck!, we don't know how many c
