SinclairI had called for an emergency meeting with all elders, court members and the elite members of the witches.They all segregated themselves as they were not yet familiar with each other. I found Martha and indigo to be settled in their new seats quite well but the pack elders had not taken the news lightly.“What are they doing here?” an elder growled in rage. “Are they even supposed to be in the same pack with us, let alone in the same room?”“Relax,” I sighed. “I know this is going to be a lot to hold but they will be living with us from now on.”This had the entire hall filled with outbursts from the elders who found this very terrible. Most of them laid out threats and some promised to destroy whatever coven that was built.I looked at the witches who were calm and collected. They could only stare at the elders without saying anything.They were powerful enough to defeat the elders in a fight, at least that was why they were calm. All they saw were whole whose barks were b
Margaret“What is it?” she turned to me in anger just as I gestured for her to come to me.She did before I removed the barrier. “Indigo calls for you,” I said as she hissed before leaving.I had been in the palace during the meeting when I found her walking round the back of the palace to meet up with a man who was talking to a woman.The maid left but she and the man got into a heated argument.I could sense that she was mad at him for something but I couldn’t tell what it was. Before I knew it, she had engaged with him which he blocked.She then used a move I had taught her to use if the opponent tried to evade her moves and that was what she did, but on a much larger scale, kicking the man with so much force, I saw him fly with speeds that I had never seen before.He destroyed a barn and this was when I knew I had to step in.She was pregnant and I didn’t want anything to happen to her or the baby.I didn’t know who he was or what he could do, but if he was holding back and she di
Victoria“Your voice is back to normal,” the doctors said to me as he packed up his things to go.“Are you sure?” I asked looking in the mirror for any signs of damage. “She really did a number on me when she removed my voice. I couldn’t speak, I thought I was going to die.”“Well, you are just fine. It was just a hex placed on you but it is a temporary one. No hex they place without using blood is complete and as such lasts from several seconds to several days but not lasting to a week.”“How do you know so much about witches?” I asked the doctor.“A friend of mine in the past used to be a witch. He gave me this trick and we used it one day against her.”“A friend of yours?” I was shocked. “That means you are not from this pack.”“I never said I was from this pack. But I was from a pack where the demons were kept as subjects to be studied by us wolves. Either way, you are safe my lady.”He nodded before leaving me alone with my maids.I walked to look through the pack and I was disgu
Ethan“What do you think we should do?” I asked. “We need to show these witches who run this town. Everyone is on edge with them running around.”“I don't know what Sinclair was thinking bringing those demons in here. This pack is our safe space. Now it isn’t. Those demons can do whatever they want to do and we would not do anything against them. We would be powerless against them.”She was right. I had almost been powerless against one of them. Her magical grip was strong but I was a wolf. She dared not use her powers on me again because the next time would be her last. I would make sure of it.The waiter knocked on our cubicle before getting in with our drinks.After serving it, he left us alone.“Do you have any idea how we can get rid of the witches?” she asked me while sipping from her c
JaneI was not impressed with this woman telling me what to do. She might be a witch leader and might have faced off against Sinclair but she was still a problem for me and if I found her a problem, I would not hesitate in getting her out of my way.“Look, as much as I’d like to say, ‘fuck everybody and do your thing’, I cannot,” Indigo sighed. “You’re pregnant. Maybe you should consider that before you go out of your way to go against some wolves.”“I can handle myself,” I let out a warning growl to show her who was in charge.If anyone threatened my family, I would not hesitate to come against them with full force. If anyone came against the peace of the pack I was trying to keep, then I would turn into a beast to protect it.Ethan was my enemy. He has crossed the line with what he did to Gail.Turning her into his personal slave? Who did he think he was? Even Sinclair had given the maid a lot of respect and praise, yet that bastard had decided to go against that and come up agains
SinclairThis was the only way I could bring peace to the pack. Since I had heard she was half wolf, half witch, I found her to be the perfect bridge between the two species.She alone understood what it meant to be misunderstood and called names from both sides.She would be able to create a safe space for everyone in the pack by being the one who would understand the troubles of each person.The meeting I had been in with the witches and the wolves had only been left adjourned for the next day.I could only do so much as an alpha. I wasn’t a god. I was only a king and I was barely handling that well seeing as my people didn’t care about my throne.They didn’t want the witches here and that was period.If I had the power to speak to both sides, and they would listen to me without me losing my head to the screams, I would gladly do so.My gaze upon the woman before me told me she was still deep in thought on what to do. It was clear she wanted nothing to do with the fight and I unders
JaneAs much as I would love to say that it was the most romantic line I had ever heard, at that moment, it was the most disturbing.I was not worthy of the love he was giving to me.Maybe I was better off as his breeder, but not his lover.Suddenly, every single bit of me hated the man before me. I wanted to get away from him and stay away.The chants of the people wanting me gone returned to my ears as I imagined them saying horrible things to me while I begged for his presence, yet he was nowhere to be found.Why was he seeking me out now? Was this a joke? He was an alpha, he could handle this with one arm tied behind his back, blindfolded and cross legged on the floor half asleep.Yet I was the one he wanted to handle this case with him.“I need a minute,” I sighed, running out of the room while hearing him call for me.“Jane!” I heard him call just as I reached the head of the stairs, jumping off it and landing on the last floor while cracking the tiles with my heels.Gasps flew
JaneWhy was everyone talking about wars within me? I was perfectly fine. All I needed was one very good day for myself that didn’t involve the troubles of being a witch or a werewolf.“If I have a war within me, I think I’d be the first one to know. I wouldn’t need anyone to tell me what to do about it or tell me that it’s there.”“That is not how this works…”“I’d like to be alone now,” I sighed. “I don’t want to be with anyone right now. That’s why I left the palace. I’m here to be on my own.”She spread her arms around to show the space between us.“From where I’m standing there’s enough room for everybody,” she smirked. “But if you don’t do something about the issues plaguing us all, you would be like us, filled with resentment towards a group of people and never finding a home you belong to.“Just like us, you are not loved by everyone. People hate you just like they hate us for being witches. They see you as a problem. They don’t know what you are and who you are as a person, t
Jane’s POV“I’m coming for you Sinclair,” I muttered before running out of the pack at high speed.With each step I took I could feel my speed and strength coming back as I zipped through the pack leaving the pack to the mercy of a rampaging Sinclair.I ran for minutes, passing a wreck site before meeting Martha and the rest of the pack on the road heading for Sullivan’s pack.“Are you okay?” she asked with indigo floating to me as I nodded.“I am.”“Where is the alpha?”“He lost control and right now he’s destroying the entire pack.”“Good for those bastards,” I heard Indigo mutter with some of the witches muttering in agreement.“Those people didn’t do anything wrong to him. The one who did was Sullivan and I’m sure he’s dead right now. Same thing goes for Ethan. He’s probably dead. Sinclair has so much anger and rage in his body that he would do anything to break through the world if possible.”“It’s the magic. He’s lost his humanity,” said Martha. “I’m guessing you used the hex.”
Sinclair’s POVShe nodded looking at the hex. She concentrated on it, using her magic to infuse into the hex.“Are you thinking of how to put it on?” I asked her as she nodded.“Just give me a moment.”I would give her the amount of time she needed. So long as I would get my super strength at the end of the day. I would rather die an alpha's death than escape a coward.She closed her eyes, putting her thumb to her mouth as she bit it and poured some blood on the hex which turned to a phone-like device with a lever.She pushed it down with two holes appearing on its side. Soon enough the holes released a lot of smoke in my direction before going out into the open.I felt my strength returning slowly.“The smoke is getting heavier,” she said to her feet.I casually stood up, breaking the chains holding me down. I was at full strength now and I could still feel my powers growing.I grabbed hold of her chains, breaking them off.“I don’t feel so bad. I mean, I can still feel my powers gro
Jane’s POVHe sighed, looking to his knees. “I even had a fight with the witches before leaving. She was trying to explain something to me and I pushed her aside in anger. I wanted to understand why you would cheat on me so I decided to come here on my own and see what was going on.”I couldn’t blame him. Ethan was a snake. Ethan had made me leave the pack anyway.“Ethan was behind this all along,” he blurted as I stared at him in shock.“He what?!”“He did so much to you that you don’t even know it’s from him. Ethan needs to be stopped permanently.”I agreed with him.I told him about the hex Martha had created for me which would amplify my powers and he was fascinated by it.“So how does this work? Do we say some magic word or do we just use it alongside your powers?”“Magic words are fine. We’ll use the magic hex like a smoke screen to escape but we have to be very careful as the hex has different sides to them.”He tilted his head. “What do you mean?”I could see his wounds were n
Sinclair’s POVNow I had to deal with my stubbornness. It had brought me to the end.The door opened again with two hefty guards getting in.They looked at me and opened my cell, dragging me by the chains out of the cell.I didn’t expect them to treat me nicely since I was going to die anyway and I couldn’t pretend how much it hurt, leaving everything in the care of my brother.He was a wrecking ball. The pack would crash in a few days.He lacked the leadership skills I had. He was impatient, unkind and crude to people. There was no way he was capable of leading the pack.I was dragged out of the building with the crowd screaming for my head to roll.The guards took me to a podium to tie me down to a ledge. There I would stay and wait for my execution to arrive.***Jane’s POVI was dragged out by one of the guards as they said the alpha was about to be killed off so I needed to see him.He dragged me out of the room like I was a child and we were out of the room soon enough, walking
Martha’s POVNow this man’s words were the last straw for me. I stood up with a frown.“Those who will ride with me to take out Ethan should follow me,” I walked to the door. “Those who choose to stay have sided with Ethan. You don’t know how dangerous you are until you have tried fighting the beasts you fear.”Walking out of the throne room made me feel weak. What if no one followed me? I thought to myself. What if I walked out and looked back only to find no one but myself? That would hurt. Everything I had given to this pack would be taken for granted. No one would see me and Indigo as leader material and I would not be chosen to lead alongside indigo again.When I reached the gate, I heaved a heavy breath, turning to see everyone from the throne room before me. Even the ones who had refused to follow were present.“You all showed up,” I smiled.One of the wolves stepped forward. “I figured since we were going to die anyway, we might as well make it mean something. The people in t
Martha’s POVMy eyes darted from big to small, taking in their sights. Anyone who moved carelessly would take in my wrath which I was glad to give off.“Anyone who has something to say would say it when the time is right. For now, I would advise you all to sit down and let her finish with the story.”Everyone settled down as I waved for the girl to continue but she told me she was done.The story was unbelievable. Sinclair, defeated? That was not possible. Even I found that hard to believe. It was Sinclair we were talking about. There was no way he would be beaten by anyone. I could not even fight with him on even grounds without taking a beating. How had he lost?Yes, she had said he was taken down by three alphas and a lot of wolves, plus he had been shot by archers who had wolfsbane infused poisoned arrows but it wasn’t a concrete story I would believe so blindly.“Are you sure of what you’re saying or you’re making stuff up?” I asked the wolves on my side for a change. “Because le
Jane’s POV“Do you even see how ridiculous you sound?” the old alpha growled. “You would die for him? You would prefer dying with him? I wasn’t even going to kill you yet but imprison you until you die but if that is the route you want to go through then so be it. I will take off your head alongside his! Is that you last wish?”“That is my last wish,” I confirmed. “I want to die alongside my alpha. I would rather go with him than be in this world without my mate.”Damien stepped forward putting his phone into his pocket. He was visibly worried by what I had said.“Are you mad?” he growled. “You seriously want to do this? You want to let everything you’ve created go just like that because of him? You would rather die for him than live? What about your children I kidnapped the last time? They don’t mean anything to you?”“Stay out of this rogue,” I growled. “It’s not like you care about me. When you chose to kidnap my children you don’t care. I suggest you sit this one out.”Sullivan fe
Jane’s POVWas this all my fault? Why had he not seen this attack? This was so unlike him.“Don’t blame yourself for it,” he laughed louder this time. “He was bound to fall someday. It was only going to take some time.”When he was done, he walked to the television, disconnected his phone and left.I was left alone for hours as the guilt penetrated my soul. I had single handedly killed the alpha and destroyed the pack.If I had actually talked with him and let him know of my plans this would not have happened.Now I had destroyed everything he had built from the ground up. I had embarrassed him and killed him. This was all my fault.Why didn’t he go to Martha and indigo? I had given him the hint to go to them. Or had Martha not told him anything?I had been captured, he was supposed to know that I would be here after talking with the witches.Now I felt really guilty and my heart sank with unhappiness. Watching those videos and seeing him in that awful state made me shed tears of sad
Jane’s POV“Ethan?!” I gasped. This was a surprise as he laughed.“Surprise.”“Are you here to rescue me?” I laughed. “I knew Sinclair wouldn’t trust that I was in the pack. These guys…”“Kidnapped you, yes, I know,” he completed with a cold smile.“Yes, and they held me back. The guy on red there is Sullivan, the other one is Damien and the…”He turned to the men and spoke to them in hushed tones as they nodded, leaving with the guard.Now we were alone, behind closed doors.“What is going on?” I asked. “What did they say? Are they going to release me? Did they say anything about releasing me?”“Jane,” he said as I looked at him. “Yeah.”“Shut up. Just shut the fuck up!”I was taken aback by his sudden outburst. I had not expected that. What was going on?“Are you okay? Did I do something wrong?”“You don’t seem to care about my feelings for you,” he sighed.“Please stop and help me.”“I seem to forget which one of us is in chains and which one is free. Because last time I checked,
