~ JANE ~ Now that I was back in my human form, Keegan pouncing on me and scratching my tummy had caused a lot of injuries to me. Now my arm and tummy had a deep scratch. “See? He’s so terrible. He couldn’t even spare you.” Freya said as she applied herbs to my wounds. I hissed from the pain and it only reminded me of when Keegan was treating me back at the beach house. I ought to be mad at Keegan for causing these injuries but the moment his wolf touched mine, Vera and I could feel the spark. ‘What if our mate isn’t as terrible as we think? His touch made me go so crazy for him and I could feel the bond.’ Vera said just what I was thinking about. ‘Yes, now a part of me is missing him but it still feels like a force is holding me back from seeing him as a good person. What the heck is wrong with me?’ ‘It's strange and I’m certain something is up. He even let us go when he knew it was his mate. I wanted to yell at him even more and attack him back but the mate bond didn’t let me t
‘What the heck is this nonsense?’ I was going to storm to them but Mason yelled in the link. ‘Don’t just go to her so they’re not suspicious. Please be patient. I’ve got this.’ He stood behind a large tree then returned close to the entrance and slipped out something that looked like a small gun and swiftly shot it at the people before either of them could glance at us. They all fell to the ground and I quickly rushed to her, picking her up in my arms. “Keegan, stay the fuck away!” She pushed me again. “Please be calm.” I held her but she was stronger than before and was able to get out of my grip. “Let me go. Why the fuck are you even here? Freya!” she started screaming. “I’m sorry, but—” Mason said and shot her with the tiny gun-looking item. “Don't…” she tailed off and her eyes rolled backwards and closed. I caught her before she could fall. “Is it deadly?” I asked him. “No. I’m sorry I had to do that. She was definitely not going to come with us willingly.’ “If it won't
“Sabrina?” Keegan repeated. “I’m sorry for interrupting your sweet make up time, but of course, I have an important information.” The pale woman walked in. “ For your safety, you’d have to play along with the Ardolfs because if they know that you’re no longer fooled by their crazy magic, then they might harm Keegan or you for knowing a few of their secrets already, especially Stefan” She said, her voice was so soft, like she was going to be killed for speaking any louder than that. “I don’t understand. Who are you? How do you know these?” Keegan asked. “Well… I live in the same town as the Ardolfs though I just wander around till it’s night and fall asleep in the spot I desire so I know them way more than any of you here. If you really want to succeed, you’ll have to follow my advice. “Jane would have to head back there and resume pretending because they’ll be planning crazy attacks on this pack, and if you have information from Jane, you can prevent it.” “I was thinking about tha
I was assisting grandmother in plucking a few fruits and vegetables and she was singing. Her voice was very melodious and soothing, the most pleasant singing I had ever heard. She suddenly stopped singing but I didn’t want her to stop. “Are you hungry, Jane?” She asked and turned to me. “Even if I’m not hungry, I’m definitely craving your meal.” I grinned. She chuckled but I could sense a glimpse of sadness behind her smile. “What’s wrong?” I asked her and she shook her head negatively. “Then where is that genuine big smile?” I asked with a playful frown. “It’s nothing. I’m just really glad you’re happy again. I’ve been waiting my whole life to have you by my side. I’m one of the main witches that’s also a werewolf. I can teach a lot about the way of witches if you’re interested.” “Oh yes, please! ” I had been trying to find a way to understand the witches' way and maybe find something that we could defeat them when they attacked the pack, but I didn’t really want to ask direc
I didn’t bring lunch for Casper today, but I was at his house because I felt much more comfortable being here. “You look really amazing today. Did the sun rise from the west? Because something about your smile is pretty suspicious.” He chuckled as he handed one of the cups of grape juice to me and sat, smiling. “I don’t know, I guess I’m really excited to see you again. I was really looking forward to it and it put a smile on my face.” I was literally grinning from ear to ear. He smirked. “Of course, it has to.” His gesture made me grin even more. Was that even possible? Though he had just kissed me, it was like a great confirmation and the relationship between us had just become way stronger after that. “Mae, I’ve also considered it and I like you too. I like you so much; we have so many things in common, especially a terrible experience with our mates in the past.” He sighed. Were my ears deceiving me right now? I wanted to squeal my lungs out but was holding it back. “Wow, I
It was finally time to attack Dark Stone pack again. They had all gathered around, even the members in cloaks were ready because they were among the strongest members with magical powers so they could exert dominance with their power. “We all have to be prepared. We’re going there with the only aim to succeed and conquer them.” Dad announced and I was nodding like the other members, acting like I was paying close attention. “Vladimir, have you done what needs to be done?” Mom asked him. Wait, what did Vladimir have to do? I had no idea Vladimir was doing anything. Why didn’t they let me know? “Yes, I already gave them a false prediction that there’ll be an attack on Desmond's pack, so they’re preparing for an attack against Diamond pack. What the heck? I had no idea about that. I really hoped Keegan didn’t go there instead. I should’ve known Vladimir’s predictions were wrong. What kind of terrible person is this?“That’s great. Are we all ready?” Freya asked and we all echoed, “Rea
Who the hell is this? I wondered, covering my chest with the blanket. “How dare you cheat on me, stupid man?” She stormed towards us and started hitting her bag on Shane. “You’re in a relationship?” My voice croaked.“No, Scarlett. I don’t even know her.” He said. “How dare you deny me in my presence?” she continued hitting him with her bag. My whole life had just been crushed over again. How could he just be making fake promises to me a while ago and destroy me again? He rose to his feet and quickly slid his boxers on before grabbing her hand to stop him. “Selena, what the heck is wrong with you?” He yelled at her while she panted, glaring at him so much. I was frozen to the bed, why was my life always filled with doom? Why did the moon goddess hate me so much? What had I done to deserve such a terrible life? “Scarlett, please let me explain. Don’t see this in the wrong way.” He said and she resumed hitting him with her back. “Are you fucking stupid? How dare you go around
~ KATE ~ I couldn’t believe I was doing this and meeting the moron again, but here I was waiting for Stefan, my long-gone mate. He walked out of a corner and stopped in front of me, maintaining a bold stance. His stubble was perfectly trimmed and his hair, as styled as ever. He never missed a chance to try to show off his good looks but I cared less about that today. “So what do you want that you had to call for my assistance?” He asked, his cold yet mocking demeanor made me have mixed feelings about him again. “Jane. I know you’ve finally found out about her.” I tucked my hand into my coat pockets, slipping out Jane’s picture from my pocket and handed it over to him. “What do I do with her?” “Don’t try to play dumb here. I’m the best person that can be of help to you. Why do you need her? I know how much you’ve been trying to find her after obviously knowing about her gifts.” He lifted his gaze from the picture with a smirk. “Still a smart woman, uh?” “There’s no time for j
~ JANE ~ (11 YEARS LATER) “HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, SWEETHEART!” Keegan said the moment I woke up, wrapping his arms around me and captured my lips into a kiss. I was startled since of course, I just woke up, but I shook it off and returned his kiss. “Happy anniversary.” I said when I pulled away, stretching. We had arrived at the beach house with our friends and family two days ago. Since it was where our love developed, it held a special place in our heart, so we decided to celebrate our Eleventh wedding anniversary here. “Guess what I found?” he asked and he had a really bright smile that made me have a good feeling about today already. “What is it?” You know how much I hate guesses.” He arched his back to pick up something from the floor then placed a box on my lap. “What is it?” I asked again. “Just open it.” He rolled his eyes at me. I chuckled and opened the box. There were two more more boxes in it and I took out the first box, it had so many swimsui
The preparations for the ceremony happened sooner than I could imagine. We decided that the venue was going to be towards the lake so the moon’s reflection could be even more perfect in the water. Chloe had done my makeup, and of course, she made me look like a goddess. My wedding dress was a dark wine velvet gown that was floor sweeping and had spaghetti straps with a wine corset on my waistline. I didn’t know how Choice had managed to get it on such short notice, but it was my perfect size and I loved it. It was only a few minutes till 12AM, so Dad had come to pick me up.“You look extremely beautiful. I never thought I’d see this day, but I’m glad I’m privileged to see my daughter’s wedding ceremony.” He had a proud smile on and hugged me, planting a fatherly kiss on my forehead. “I love you and I’m glad we got to see the real light before it was too late.” I was grinning from ear to ear, also glad that my parents and grandmother were present at my wedding. Dad led me to the v
We were all fully-prepared and determined to find Keegan today and return home with him. Chloe switched to her wolf form and started leading the way while we all followed behind her. She was way slower than I’d have wanted to run, but I had to bear with it. The run lasted for really long minutes till we finally stopped in front of a small building surrounded by so many men, judging from their musty scent, clearly rogues. ‘Be careful and attack them at once.’ I ordered and after a count, we charged at them. They were so confused to even do anything so we were able to kill or knock them out in accordance. “According to Vladimir, there might still be more guards in and we’ll have to be even more careful.” Chloe said in a bark. “And according to him, we’ll be better in our human form. “Really?”“Yes. Please switch quickly.”Good thing we had planned for a few wolves to carry clothes for us in bags. We received clothes from the bags then we had to quickly switch to our human form an
~ KEEGAN ~ I had tried my best to be free from this bondage and try to escape but it was all to no avail. Dad was planning a really terrible attack on my pack and I was scared that they weren’t going to be able to handle it since they wouldn’t be expecting it. I had overheard that Jane had gotten her gift and I was so proud of her but I hoped she was able to secure the pack in place. I wondered if she was back at Dark Stone or still stuck with those Ardolfs. I had no idea on what to do. I was at the weakest point of my life and it didn’t seem like help could come to me. One of the men walked into the room in their completely protected outfit then extended a glass to me. Water! I could finally have water?!I desperately let him pour the water down my throat and it made me feel so refreshed. He stepped back then stared at me. I wondered what the hell was going on till I started feeling knots in my stomach. I was too weak to let out a groan so my cry of pain was muffled internal
~ VLADIMIR ~ It was another day to just torture Keegan and watch him die slowly. The pleasure I derived from rubbing it in his face that he was so weak right now and I was just a step closer from dominating and being the new strongest Alpha again. “What exactly would you gain?” He asked, his voice was extremely low with his head hung low as well. “Revenge and power.” “I don’t know what you might’ve been fed with, but I just realized that there had been no reason for you to have started hating me when we were younger. We were so close with Scarlett and….” He trailed off and started coughing. The fact that he was playing dumb was really pissing me off. He had been the cause of my mother’s death and had always been against my success. I had been raised to hate him, so of course, I couldn’t let him try to convince me with his words when I was really close to achieving my desire. *** Where the hell was Dad? I had been trying to reach out to him towards our final attack against Dark
(Please ignore any grammatical errors or nicely point them out.) When I arrived at dark stone, my heart dropped to the ground as I saw so many people lying on the ground, looking so lifeless.If their chests weren’t still rising and falling, I’d have thought they were dead. What the heck happened? I nudged Mae’s wolf, no movement, I also tried to move Scarlett and Mason’s wolf but neither of them were responding to me.I searched around those in either their wolf form or human form lying on the ground, but there was no sign of Keegan around them and that made my heart start beating really fast. ‘Where the hell are my parents?’ I asked Vera. ‘Let’s just search around.’ She responded.I decided to search the entire town for my parents or Vladimir or at least a sign of Keegan. As I went around the entire pack, it was dead silent, confirming that no one was conscious. I even returned to the pack house and the members in the pack house were also lying unconscious, other people’s hou
~ JANE ~ “Please let me go!” I cried to the guards that were watching over me but they turned deaf ears to my pleas. I tried to struggle free from the plant but it was still too tight against me. My mind kept racing through what could possibly be their actual attack and my heart raced so much at the thought of the current state of the pack. What if Keegan wasn’t able to handle it? Darion suddenly walked towards me with blood stains on his body as he checked them out. “Darion,” I called, excited to at least see him. He lifted his gaze to me. “Please, save me from these people and plants. I can’t deal with this any longer.”He dismissed the guards then walked a few more steps till he stopped in front of me with a sly smile. “Oh, sweetheart,” he said in a very deep and husky voice, running his hand over my face then chortled. “You thought I was so stupid?” “The moment I started to doubt you was when I started to doubt you was when I asked if your love for me was washing off and you
~ KEEGAN ~.The pack members had undergone intense training for the upcoming attack, so we were more than prepared for what was coming our way. We had all maintained our positions close to the border they were going to be attacking from and the guards standing by to launch the traps to capture them were all also in position. ‘Be at alert. This has to be the last time we’ll experience an attack from them so we’ll stop at nothing to capture everyone of them.’ I said in a general link. ‘And ensure to protect your Luna at all cost.’ We still remained in position for a while till we started hearing screaming noises quite far away. ‘What the heck is that?’ Drex wondered. I started running towards the direction of the screaming with the guards, Mason, Scarlett, Shane, and other pack members and we noticed so many people lying unconscious on the ground as we ran. We came to a halt when we noticed the Ardolfs and multiple of their companions. There were so many rogues with them this time
~ KATE ~ I couldn’t believe I was doing this and meeting the moron again, but here I was waiting for Stefan, my long-gone mate. He walked out of a corner and stopped in front of me, maintaining a bold stance. His stubble was perfectly trimmed and his hair, as styled as ever. He never missed a chance to try to show off his good looks but I cared less about that today. “So what do you want that you had to call for my assistance?” He asked, his cold yet mocking demeanor made me have mixed feelings about him again. “Jane.
