Oscar sat alone in the bustling dinning hall, sipping his Cinnamon tea and trying to focus on his book of spells.

The aroma of freshly roasted beef filled the air, but his thoughts were elsewhere. His gaze kept drifting to the enchanting figure sitting at a corner table. Aria, with her flowing auburn hair and captivating emerald eyes, seemed to possess a delicate beauty that left Oscar mesmerized.

Ever since came in contact with her, Oscar had been unable to shake off the desire to get to know Aria better. He found himself stealing glances whenever he could, hoping she wouldn't notice. Finally, after weeks of internal debates and a surge of courage, he resolved to become friends with her.

Gathering his nerves, Oscar stood up and walked over to Aria's table. He cleared his throat and sparked a conversation, stumbling slightly over his words. Surprisingly, Aria responded warmly, a shy smile gracing her lips. As they started talking, Oscar discovered a gentle, kind-hearted soul beneath

    Dax's heart was heavy as he approached Blaire, the woman who had once held a significant place in his life. The moon cast a pale glow over the pack's gathering spot, lending an eerie atmosphere to their conversation. Blaire's eyes met his, filled with remorse and regret, as if she already knew the weight of her past actions."Blaire," Dax began, his voice tinged with a mix of pain and resolve. "We need to talk."Blaire nodded, her voice barely above a whisper. "I know, Dax. I'm prepared to face the consequences of what I've done."Dax took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. The wounds inflicted by Blaire's betrayal were still raw, but he had grown since then, and forgiveness had begun to take root in his heart. "Blaire, I want you to understand that I've moved on. Aria is now the one who holds my heart. We're building something new, something stronger."Blaire's eyes widened, a mixture of surprise and hurt flickering across her face. "You're... with Aria now?" Her voice quivere

    The moon hung high in the sky as Dax, fueled by a mixture of determination and righteous anger, convened a meeting with his most trusted advisors. The weight of recent happenings had settled upon his shoulders, and he knew that decisive action was necessary to uphold justice within the pack."Bring Miranda to me," Dax commanded, his voice firm and unwavering. His loyal guards nodded in acknowledgment, and swiftly departed to fulfill his orders.Miranda, once a revered member of the pack, had betrayed their trust and conspired against their interests. Her position as one of the top citizens of the clan had granted her privileges and power, which she had shamelessly abused. Dax would not let such actions go unpunished.Minutes later, Miranda was escorted into the meeting room, her countenance a mix of defiance and trepidation. She locked eyes with Dax, her gaze filled with a flicker of arrogance, but it quickly faded when met with the intensity of his glare."Dax, what is the meaning of

    While Dax thought it was strange for Oscar to be so calm, staying in his kingdom, he wanted to know what has happened to being it on. So, he asked."What happened to you, Oscar?"Oscar sighed. "It's a long story, my friend."Dax chuckled, "Oh, I have plenty time."Then his friend dived in, seeming to never want to return.It was winter period, when I first found my mate, she was beautiful and fair, had a skin as white as snow, her hair was as flowy as velvet, she had the voice of an angel, perhaps I was being biased because she was mine, but it was the truth, one thing that kept me from pursuing her at first was because she was a witch. We werewolves and witches were not that close, we tend to get on each other’s nerves, so I knew my father would not approve, he was big on keeping to the rules.I became her stalker, not that she knew. Werewolves have the tendencies to scout their mates out first than any other super natural species, for that reason, I didn’t think she knew we were ma

    Training was intense; it was more brutal than regular pack training. Maybe it was because every werewolf present was an Alpha, and no one wants to submit. It was against our instincts.I fought about three Alphas per day for physical training; there was mental development that was not so much my forte, because I was not an overly expressive person. Emotional training was the one I hated the most, I hate talking about my emotions, especially since mother died.When mother was alive, I was very open about my feeling, I was expressive because she was always there to listen, she was always there to talk back, but the moment she died, it was like she took a part of me with her, I miss her. So, I talked about her instead.Emotional training involves us talking about people close to us; I had to pretend I had not found my mate to avoid talking about her when I barely knew anything about her. Every other Alpha’s in the room talked about their mate, I talked about my dead mother.Mental t

    Entering the castle was not as hard as I thought it would be, upon our entry, I realized we were on the Red Velvet Coven lands. Humans had always been dumb, when it comes to the super naturals, and they did not seem to believe in things like that, that was why they call the place ‘castle’. I dint blame them though, we super naturals had always been tight on keeping our secrets because not all human are as open minded as we would like them to be.As it would seem, my guise worked, because no one questioned my intension as I roamed through the castle trying to figure out a way to my mate. It was not an easy task, between keeping up with my guise and actually doing the work I registered for and doing what I wanted for myself.We were told to beautify the castle’s largest hall for the Lady’s engagement that night. I was overjoyed that they were not getting married right away, that meant I still had a chance. Before I knew it, I was asked to bring some flowers to the Lady’s room, excitem

    I was devastated when my mate said there was nothing I could do, I was so desperate to be with her. Everyone knows nothing was more important to a werewolf more than his or her mate, but it seems mine forgot.All through the night, I did everything I was supposed to do as a worker. I could not help but glance at my mate from the other side of the room every now and then. When it was time for the man she was betrothed to enter, I was shocked.It was a vampire.I knew him from the neighboring vampire group around the pack. A vampire and a witch, what else could go wrong?.I was so angry that she could easily go with a vampire, but wouldn't fight for me, a werewolf. I wanted to cause a scene, but I knew I could not because humans were present.I held in my anger in all night, and thankfully the two betrothed did not touch inappropriately, it would have been total chaos.As I stood in the corner, I thought of ways to make my mate want me, but there was none. At the end of the ceremony, it

    As if hearing her thoughts, both of his hands began to carelessly roam around her body. "Oh" Blaire hissed when he grabbed her nipples through her dress and between his thumb and index finger and began to kneed them.Her chest tightened as warmth pooled into my tummy. Her underwear dampened. Oh Goddess, he made her want to sin.With the way his fingers kept playing with her nipples, it felt really hard to keep quiet. So, no one could blame her for the little slip up she made when he pinched down hard on her sensitive nub."Ah" Blaire moaned a little hard quiet. Her heart throbbed wildly and her body was on fire.He grabbed her neck pulling her closer to him as if thet weren't close enough. "You don't know how much I've waited for this day" he said into Blaire's ear. His wet tongue licking the shell of her ear and her body began to shiver.Her face was twisted in pleasure and the sound of her breathy moans echoed in the room. He pushed her to the bed and as sge laid there, his eyes

    "Oscar you can talk to me, What's the issue? Come on. Talk to me please." She begged squinting her eyes.Oscar stared at her meekly and laughed in his head, she felt so awkward trying to get words out of his mouth. He smiled at her innocence, yes, this was his opportunity. He didn't say anything and just walked inside the house trying to give her a hard time. He wanted to see how she was really going to make him talk to her. Blaire rolled her eyes and scrunched her nose at Oscar's childishness. He is actually behaving like a child and throwing tantrums. Jeez, she really had a lot of work to do as he seem to be stressing her necessary. "Oscar! Why are you walking away from me?" She queried as she went after him. He just strolled into the room and removed his cloth that he was half naked as he walked into the kitchen. Blaire followed him and caught a glimpse of him entering the kitchen as she ran after him. He just ignored her and cotinyed peeling what he was doing. Blaire barged i

    Oscar wasn't the one to joke around especially not with somebody like her. But it surprised her the more it dawned in her that Oscar would ever think if liking her in any way possible. She couldn't believe it and she wouldn't believe it or else he says it to her. She might just be mistaking his kind gesture as feelings, she knew he was a kind person but she still doubts if this was the part of the kindness or his charisma, it seemed to be something mutual and something else attached. The way he calls her name, looks at her or even smile at her just feels way too different than the usual Oscar. She had caught him countless times staring at her, most times she would just shy away. His stares always give her goosebumps and make her mind go wild, she would feel it on her body, his eyes fixated on her and he would drink and eat her thoroughly through them, not caring if she was uncomfortable with it or not.Maybe he was just being extra kind and nice towards her so she wouldn't feel the

    It was on the tip of her tongue to ask 'why do you care' but she just adjusted herself on the chair and spoke more calmly instead."Well, I don't know yet. Why do you ask?" She said rather politely. "I just wanted to know, nothing much." He told her.Blaire could bet that his voice immediately sounded sad and the smile that was on his face soon vanished immediately she said it.She just shrugged and went back to eating. They ate and Blaire packed the plates while Oscar cleaned. They arranged and set up the house before going out to complete Blaire's punishment.The day ended with Oscar spending the night at Blaire's home. They didn't talk much and just slept. Next day, Oscar got up very early to make breakfast for them. He became the default cook since yesterday and he had been doing his job really perfect. He slept on the couch in the other room while Blaire slept on the bed in her and Aria's room. The most amazing thing about yesterday was that Oscar had helped her in clearing s

    Blaire looked up to see a concerned Oscar who was hovering above her.She didn't give a reply and Oscar asked again. She just nodded her head as if saying she was fine and didn't want any help or charity from him.She ignored him and turned to pick her labor tool to continue her work. Oscar felt angry for daring too much for somebody who didnt even feed the need to respect and love once people. He move to where he was during and continued watching her, cutting. Blaire was clearing the bush with all the strength and energy she could muster, she was too exhausted and she sat down at intervals every time? Even though her belly growled angrily and unpleasant to the hearing, Blaire still continued clearing, she wished she could stop and eat as her tummy growled so many times while she was working. Oscar noticed the discomfort all the while she was clearing and he had fought a very strong battle with himself, trying so hard to resist the urge of running to her to assist her. He kept his

    Aria hissed with irritation as she heard their voices. Ignoring them she picked Blaire and this time they surrounded her more protecting her sister from the ground and wrapped her arms protectively around her. She had really missed Blaire and she didn't hesitate to show it."Blaire? How have you been? We haven't heard from you in a really long while Blaire. Why? Why did you just disappear." Aria questioned worriedly.Blaire didn't give her an answer as she didn't know what to say. She just felt so ashamed of herself that she couldn't even speak to Aria.Aria still loved her sister and would go to any length just to keep her. She wasn't holding grudges against Blaire because of what she had done. She was just angry at her for a while which died down soon she started missing and longing for her because she was missing. Aria wasn't that kind if person to hold grudges and that's why Blaire had always blackmailed her. Her emotions give way to her so soon and it made people trample on he

    Sarah didn't even hesitate to run all the way to the palace that night after waking up to the disappearance of both Oscar and Aria. She almost collapsed when the news got to her that Oscar had brought Aria to the palace dripping with blood and sweat. She couldn't believe that Blaire would want to kill her own sister because she was so selfish and couldn't live with the progress of her own sister. She felt angry and she had seen the sisters and seen how much Aria had sacrificed and was even willing to sacrifice for Blaire but Blaire had paid her back like this. She felt terribly angry that she wished she could strangle Blaire with her own eyes. She visited Aria when she was recovering and didn't make her feel the absence of her presence as she was also always there. Aria couldn't thank the GODDESS enough, if there was any thing that she should give thanks for then it would be the privilege of having the right people in her circle. People who could go all the way for her. She just fe

    Her eyes buldged out when she saw Blaire's face after Oscar had removed the mask. "Blaire! What? Blaire is that you?" She questioned still shocked to the bones. She couldn't believe her sister could be so mean to do that to her. She had always loved Blaire and she showed every opportunity she had. Even after regaining her memory and knowing Blaire was treating her bad because she married Dax after Blaire had eloped, She didn't take it to heart. She didn't even hold any grudge whatsoever against Blaire.But now she had crossed the line by planning to kill her only sister for her own selfish reasons.Aria hardly got the chance to think further as the flashing of cold metal disrupted her thoughts. She looked up to see Oscar and her sister dodging each other's sword fiercely. Terrified she begged Oscar to stop so he'd not injure her sister."Oscar, stop it. Stop fighting with her. Oscar!!" She screamed but everything fell on deaf ears as the two continued. As she saw Oscar gaining the
