Daphne's heart raced as she and Liam stood before Marcel's grave in the desolate cemetery. They had come here, driven by an unsettling dream that haunted her—a dream that Anna had shared with her.

Her eyes widened, disbelief etching deep lines on her face as she took in the sight before her. The earth around Marcel's grave had been disturbed, the once neatly arranged soil now a chaotic mess. Panic swelled within her chest as she noticed the cut ropes that had once bound Marcel's corpse.

Daphne's voice trembled as she turned to Liam, her voice filled with a mixture of shock and fear. "Liam, look! Marcel's grave... It's been desecrated! The ropes... they're broken. Anna's dream... it was true! Marcel... he's the leader of the Black Wolves. Someone took him from here."

Liam's face contorted in disbelief, his eyes scanning the scene, searching for any possible explanation that could quell the rising tide of horror within them. "But how? Was anyone watching the both of you when you came

    "Daphne and… Liam?" Inspector Hayes tried to feign ignorance of Liam's name. It was obvious he was doing that on purpose. He had gotten up with his arms outstretched in fake joy."Yes, Liam. We would like to talk to you about our missing property."Inspector Hayes did not understand where the question was coming from. "I do not understand what you are talking about. If I remember correctly, I gave you a piece of land out of the goodness of my heart."Daphne folded her hands across her chest. "And we accepted it. Imagine the shock of finding the grave empty this morning. Do not test my patience Hayes.""Are we on a first name basis then?" Inspector Hayes' jaws grinded against each other. He was getting pissed with the direction of the conversation as they were implying something. That he did something.Daphne allowed a bit of her alpha aura to slip through her mind and all over her body. She towered him. "Cut the bullshit, Hayes. You know what we are and have chosen to take what belong

    When Daphne heard the devastating news that her baby, Mason, had been abducted right under the nose of her maid, Pilpo, a wave of intense emotions crashed over her. Initially, shock and disbelief gripped her, rendering her momentarily speechless. As the reality sunk in, Daphne was consumed by a whirlwind of emotions, the foremost being a deep and overwhelming sense of fear. The thought of her precious child being taken away from her by the black wolves sent shivers down her spine and pierced her heart with an unimaginable pain."What did you say?" Daphne asked Pilpo to repeat her statement. She didn't allow her to finish before Daphne turned to Liam. "We shouldn't have left him behind. It was all a trap. They knew that I wouldn't be with my baby and so they took him. You know that if they can't have me, my baby will be the sacrifice." "Tell me what happened." Daphne chose not to get angry at pil. She too has made a lot of mistakes but this was unforgivable. It would be unforgivable i

    He is my mate!?Marcel McClain is my mate?Can my life get anymore eventful? I am seated in my chambers—his chambers actually. It has been twenty four hours. Twenty four hours of me seating in this chamber, twenty four hours of devote skincare and being surrounded by the infinity Wolfgang to watch my every movement and every action.It has been twenty four hours since I found out that Alpha Marcel McClain is my mate and in the next twenty four hours, he would be hosting a grand ceremony all over infinity city to announce that we are mates. I wince at the thought, my fingers digging deep into my skin in dread and anger. I could possibly use any means to get myself out of here, of course I wouldn’t even havecome here in my own accord had the ruthless sonofabitch didn’t demand that the Wolfgang forcefully makes sure I am present. That’s right, Alpha Marcel never asked. He demanded. My chest heaves slowly when my mind casts back to the demise of my parents, to the moment when my ha

    It’s twenty four hours to the day when I would be revealing my Luna, my mate. Daphne Jennings. Everything and everyone in infinity city would be gathered at this grand event. To say I looked forward to this day is an understatement. I am very much ecstatic about this day although, deep within, I am aware that my mate. Daphne Stewart isn’t as pleased as I am. The cold look she shoots at me upon her arrival to the chamber crowns the suspicion. She hates me. And I know if given an opportunity, she would stab her claws into my heart and make sure to feed them to dogs. I toss the thoughts aside, we could fix her hatred someday but for now, I can barely focus especially when Gina keeps running her fingers into my scalp. She’s been at it for a few hours now and it’s starting to get really annoying. I try to hold in my annoyance, taking her hands off me. “Okay Gina, that’s enough.” I say and she hisses under her breath. “Is it because of her ?” she asks rhetorically. After I had told he

    The curtains are drawn open and I’m standing in the direction of the spotlight focused on me. He’s looking at me expectantly, I could sense the trails of helpless hope he carried within. Like he was desperately pleading that I honor moon goddess wishes. However, he’s perfect at masking his hopelessness with a daring stare. I let out a sigh, and take my first steps in. Today is the day when I finally put to an end this nightmare. The crowd is hooting and howling in excitement and for a nanosecond, I wonder if Liam would be doing alright. He’s not here. The infinity pack are not friendly to vampires. Funny how I have always known that Alpha Marcel was my mate. Yes, I’d realize this from the first day I ran into his chambers pleading for help, when he gazed at me, even when his hands grazed my skin. I could feel the tingles and spark shoot through my spine. Fortunately, I had fallen in love with Liam. The kind stranger who was quick to offer me assistance when I needed help. I hadn’t

    The sound of the cups, plates and cutleries clatter to the ground in blind rage, shaking everyone still present in the hall. I ball my fist in anger, letting a low growl escape from my lips. I am angry, furious and embarrassed. All along I knew this would happen, I saw it coming but I did nothing to stop her hoping she would have the sense to not take any stupid decision she thought about. I am visibly shook with rage that I could think about is tearing her down I’m the most brutal way for such humiliation. I immediately sent my men, the Wolfgang, to go after her. Heavens know where she has disappeared too. I do not even want to know because the moment I set my eyes on her, there is one thing for sure I was going to do. Break her. She has humiliated me enough. One thing that would spread throughout the whole of infinity city and I can already imagine the unbearable rumors going around: Alpha’s supposed Luna had rejected him.What are shame?!I feel so sad for him.The thought

    I am gradually taking in the dimness of the building. The smell of cinnamon tea wafts through my nostrils. Someone is brewing tea, Liam is the only one with me so I figure out that much that he is the one making the tea. The pain hitting my spine is massive, the small cuts and bruises are not healed yet. And as much as I try to figure out what is happening, It becomes impossible every passing second. I can not hear any faint sound coming from anywhere that is not a spoon clinking the teacup and for some weird reasons, I am suddenly alarmed. I immediately get up with a start, running frantic gaze around me. I try mumbling some spells that mother taught me to when I needed focus. Nothing is happening asides the increasingly rapid panic. Warm hands grip at my wrist, startling me immediately. I turn around, letting out a gasp. It is Liam. He is holding a teacup with another filled with steaming cinnamon tea and his other arms are on me. “Hey, you are safe now.” He reassures. I am sa

    With a sense of satisfaction, Hayes finally pressed the record button. The camera whirred to life, capturing the last moments of their clandestine burial. He knew that the evidence he gathered tonight would be a powerful weapon in his fight against the supernaturals, and he relished the thought of the justice it would bring.As the camera rolled, Hayes allowed himself a smug smile. "Your secret is no longer safe, vampires. The world will see what you truly are, and you'll finally face the consequences of your monstrous acts."He wasn't surprised when they got into the black car and drove off. He was tempted to follow them to wherever they were going but he knew that would be suicide. For now, he has caught them on camera and that is enough. Their names will be brought before the meeting tonight.Presently, While Daphne and Liam prepared to confront inspector Hayes, another meeting was going on.Deep within the heart of an ancient, desolate forest, a gathering of the malevolent Black

    As the demons continued their message, their voices interweaved with a sense of cruel triumph. "This one led a pathetic pack. look at him. His head lies decapitated at our feet," the first one sneered. The second one had his eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure. "Witness the fate that awaits those who dare to fight us." The third demon's voice thundered, shaking the very ground beneath them. "Resistance is futile, Daphne. Your pack is shattered, and your fate is sealed. Surrender now, or face a destiny far worse than death."Daphne's breath caught in her throat, and her legs wavered beneath her, but a flicker of determination ignited within her eyes. She refused to succumb to the terror and despair that threatened to consume her. Her voice quivered, but her resolve remained unyielding. "I will never surrender to the likes of you," she managed to utter, her voice trembling but filled with unwavering defiance. "My pack isn't broken yet and we will fight until our last breath."

    The night came quickly and Daphne's eyelids grew heavy. The moon gently illuminated her room as she nestled into her warm bed. Drifting off to sleep, her mind wandered into a vivid dream realm, where she found herself standing in a vast, ancient forest. The scent of damp earth and the rustle of leaves filled the air, as if nature itself was whispering secrets.In the distance, Daphne could hear the low, haunting howl of wolves. As she followed the sound, her heart pounding with anticipation, she soon found herself standing in a clearing bathed in moonlight. A pack of black wolves emerged from the shadows, their sleek, ebony fur glistening under the pale glow. These wolves seemed different, their aura carrying an enigmatic power.Just as Daphne's eyes fixed upon the magnificent creatures, a figure stepped out from the surrounding darkness. It was Anna, clad in a flowing emerald gown and with her hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall of ebony."Daphne," Anna's voice rang ou

    A few minutes later, Daphne was seen removing her clothes. The heat was unbearable. She couldn't bear to see Liam's eyes trace her body sensually."That was beautiful."Daphne paused. "Huh?" She didn't understand where the words were coming from all of a sudden.Liam gestured down the hall. "I meant the speech you gave. Who knew you were this hot?"Daphne felt her cheeks grow hotter than the rest of her body. The blush rose up to her ears, stopping just at the tip. "Are you serious right now? We are working together. I didn't command them or something. I have a role to play. We have to find my connection to all these. We have to go back to the outside city.""You should lead the way," Liam said sadly.Daphne rolled her eyes. "How many times have I apologized? I am sorry for going alone. Actually, I went with Vale, but that isn't the point. I am sorry for going all alone.""You said it yourself that they make you isolated. Stuff like that.
