SAGE

School was kinda boring but I actually preferred this than to see death everywhere. The whole morning classes was about focusing on the lecture at hand, unintentionally listening to gossips and being able to detect emotions through smell among others. It was quite hard to adjust at something that was just suddenly thrown at you but I had no choice. Maybe there was a way that I could turn this off. Esther had mentioned yesterday that I could control it. I gotta asked Val later then.

Speaking of my mate, I wondered how she was coping up after everything. Grief is a process and it's one thing you can't control anyway. Maybe I should distract her mind away from those thoughts as her girlfriend, if that's going to be a good idea. Or maybe I should let her get through it?

As I sauntered through the school hallway once the bell rang for lunch, I saw Primrose from a distance, laughing with her minions. As if she could feel my gaze, her eyes shifted at me while her minions followed her ga

    VALKYRIE"Are you really sure that we should be doing this?" I asked to Sage in hesitation. We were inside her bedroom and just waiting out for her parents to get to sleep before we embarked outside for Primrose's party. We were already dressed in our outfits; cladded with my leather jacket while Sage was wearing her bomber. I heard it was a party to welcome the winter so it was appropriate to wear thick clothes even though the cold wasn't affecting our warm bodies.Sage enfolded me with one of her arms, the other raised her Polaroid camera in front of us. Smiling uneasily as I looked at its lens, she clicked the capture button and the flash almost blinded my eyes due to its brightness. I blinked uneasily, then I watched as my mate pulled out the photo and shaking it in excitement."C'mon, when was the last time you had a party? We even skipped the homecoming. After everything, I think we deserve some fun, don't you think?" she said, her focus was on the piece of glossy paper though.

  • The Phantom Queen   Chapter 57: The Day Before The Night

    SAGEHands trembling, I tried to ignore the enormous fear crawling all over my skin. Blood soiled my body beneath the piece of cloth Esther had provided for me. After that white werewolf ran off, I immediately tended to Val, deeply horrified about her state. That beast got her good she ripped her without any mercy. I could still recall how the side of her torso was sliced up, spilling terrifying blood all over the moist of the earth. And due to the effect of the sun, Val had shifted back to her human form which was contradicting against my unexpected immunity to it. I thought werewolves can't shift during the day but I still remained in that shape until my heightened anger declined.Moreover, I couldn't believe that I killed someone with my own hands. Not only one person but I murdered three without faltering. And the excitement I felt when I cut their head off one by one etched in my memories like a nightmare inside the reality. I was aware of what I was doing but for some reason, I

    VALKYRIESome ancient tribes believed that once the moon turned into a shade of blood, it's deeply wounded or terribly ill. And during the eclipse, their people would chant prayers and offer dance to provide healing to this celestial magnificence in the dark sky.For our people, it was the very symbol of our curse and our birth— the image of our Goddess. It gave monstrous power to our ancestor who sought revenge for the death of her tribe. The one who had founded the Phantom and live within her children in blood which continuously led our kind to supremacy. Until she got broken, betrayed by her own kin. Her spirit shattered into three inheritors and then, she disappeared from our consciousness.However, after this night, there was a possibility that it might be whole again through our union. If I possessed the other within me, that is. But so far, I haven't experienced anything weird yet. Actually, I was more shocked that Sage was able to defeat all those hybrids without any sweat a w

  • The Phantom Queen   Chapter 59: The Side of Those Who Endure

    SAGEI initially thought it was hard to control this mind ability we had but after a few visualization practices and tips from Val, I was able to master it finally. My mate was quite surprised, telling me that I was such a natural. I was supposed to train my transformation but I think I didn't need to anymore. I was able to shift yesterday without any issues but she had advised me to try it again tonight.Last night transformation was out of rage, probably why it was easy. It was as if my bones and body was able to adjust so well without any pain whereas the others took about a year to make it painless. Maybe because I was a special case who had pure Alpha blood running in my veins so I was built that way. However, that didn't matter at all as I wanted to start defining myself as Val's mate for life.Not someone who had killed people. If I kept thinking about it, I wouldn't be able to move on. I would just be consumed by guilt that wasn't even supposed to be there in the first place.

That cheerio girl was asking what time exactly is the barbeque party tomorrow which reminded me that I had to come with my Mama to the town supermarket to buy stuff for the said party.I was kinda feeling it now: the double-life scenario—— a human and a werewolf. I wasn't complaining though but I knew that I had to put in a lot of extra effort. Luckily, I already have the energy to endure my day as werewolves could keep themselves awake for four days at most, depending on their stamina and on the phase of the moon.

    VALKYRIEIt was Saturday evening and I was on my way to Sage to sleep for tonight there when Wan came to inform that Iris of the Wolf Grave demanded to talk to us. We were expecting this already though. Their pack would eventually get out of control as a result of taking their Alpha out of the picture. So I told Delta Wan to let her through the territory. But before that, I linked with Sage through her mind and told her that I would be late to have an important conversation with the Wolf Grave.'Make sure to tell me what's going on,' she said after then blocked me out. I had no idea why she had to do that though but I sensed her desire a while ago to the extent that I nearly made an excuse not to go with Vance in the labyrinth. However, I quickly decided against it because we needed to plant a trap there in regards to our plan in outing the traitor.As usual, the twin towed behind her when she arrived at the camp villa.

    SAGEThe way their bodies moved as they strode towards us was enough sign that they were cautious with their surroundings. Sarah watched the newly arrived members of the Wolf Grave sauntering past her. She was gonna follow them next but she was halted by my Mom who was unaware of the situation. I'd mentioned to her that Sarah was also a victim of our enemies but it didn't mean she'd already forgiven her for posing as a werewolf hunter to trick her and then abducting me after. Aside from that, my parents also didn't know that she's my biological mother yet. I didn't even know how to tell them.Shifting on my feet, I extended my hearing and focused on their conversation."What are you doing here?" Mom hissed at her but not loud enough to bring attention."Flora, I-I'm sorry—""Your daughter invited her," Veronica interrupted in between. Mom clenched her jaw before she glanced at me which I responded with a reassuring nod. Her face held confusion but eventually let go of Sarah's arm. My

  • The Phantom Queen   Epilogue

    VALKYRIETo see beyond the darkness.To overcome the agony of losing those people you'd treasured all your life would be difficult to fulfill. But time would be always on our side. And someday, the wounds would mend to scars— scars that would imprinted in our heart for eternity. And those blemishes were the embodiment of our memories you had with them.But did our suffering truly ended after our victory? Or it would just create another, damaging our lives once again? That——that would be something I wouldn't be able to know as I was just limited to the reality of the moment.One thing was for sure. Blood was shed. Tears had fallen on the same earth where it all began. But here we were, healing each other to achieve peace among our kind. And finally, my father's dreams were starting to build up into something more and definite.In the depths of the Olcan Manor, in one of the prison cells, Amelia was apprehended and yet, she had been refusing to tell us the Illwisch's whereabout or anyth

    SAGEContained by intense grief, we all fell into silence. The large tree behind us scorched in fire, portraying hell in the darkness. We all watched it fade into ashes, words hidden in our mouth.Val and I reduced to our human form. And Gwen was quick to cover us with her coat."Hey, where's Vance? Why——Why I can't feel him anymore?" I heard Esther questioned, causing an ache to my chest. If she couldn't sense her mate anymore, then Vance was already....Val hung her head low, her tears were streaming down on her cheeks. Her heart was filled with diverse emotions—— guilt, regrets and extreme frustration. She couldn't face her best friend as she failed her——we all failed her. I hugged her close to me, crying my eyes out. She just lost his father and now this? Why was the world so cruel to my precious mate?"I'm sorry. He——He didn't make it. We couldn't do anything," Cayde was the only one who had the courage to answer her.Esther looked at us, seeking validation. I stared back at her,

    SAGE"We're here," Wan declared.We all ceased running. Looking over my shoulder, I held the sight of the Olcan Hill across the Maelstorm we hiked through. Although it was already nighttime, I still could see the lights from the square barracks and the manor from where we were standing. The location of the passage that they were talking about was just near the edge of the hill. The terrain was quite complicated so no ordinary person could climb through the area unless they were like us. We brought a team of deltas with us as this was a rescue mission to retrieve Enzo's family.And to my surprise, Val also brought me along in this mission. Maybe because she was still feeling guilty over what happened yesterday at the Wolf Grave territory. She wanted to make me feel that she trusted me. Needless to say, my best friends also tagged along because it was also their job to protect me. Their parents were also part of the Phantom before, the two apprentices who fought along with Sara to be ex

    VALKYRIEAfter they took Zak to heal his wounds, we were led to the house of the Claw and we talked about how to solidify our alliance with the Wolf Grave more. As expected, they were demanding to take Sage into their territory but I strongly declined as she was my mate. Aside from that, Sage mentioned her human parents, shutting them down flatly. They also offered Iris and the twin to be her personal bodyguard which Sage declined too. However, it seemed that they were too adamant about this so they suggested transferring to our school next year. Then we proceeded about our war against Amelia and her notorious hybrids.Once the meeting ended, we drove home, promising to the Wolf Grave Pack to develop our alliance further and set things up now that Sage had finally claimed the Alpha position. The whole time, my mate was disregarding me, even blocking me in her mind. I could feel a bit of her disappointment though. She had her reason because I didn't trust her and acted on our own again

    VALKYRIEThere was nothing greater than the morning when you were on the bed, kissing your girlfriend senseless. Not to mention that we were both naked under the sheet as I hovered above her body. These past few days were so eventful with school and the training after. Add more our task as the new Alpha of our pack. Finding time for our intimate session was quite challenging and there were her parents too who demanded to have Sage stay at home as she should. They just let her do the ceremony last Monday because my Mom asked them politely.So having her slept here last night because it was already the weekend was already a blessing to me. And we didn't even hesitate to jump at each other once we were alone in my personal cabin. I had no idea how many times we'd done it but it was truly bliss. However, it seemed that we weren't still satisfied yet that as soon as we woke up a while ago, we made love once again.Sage cradled me inside her embrace while stroking my hair soothingly. I nuzz
