Damien's Point of View: I cannot do it, and I can never do it. I stepped back away from the girl who was innocently smiling at me. Since when did I become such a weak creature? I tried to pull myself together to do the right thing, which is to eliminate the threat that's endangering my pack. Yet, I'm standing here, admiring the beauty of two deadly creatures that might, at any second, be used as a cure to eradicate the werewolf gene. But looking into the eyes of the awakened one, the way she innocently giggled while gazing deep into my eyes, made me wonder. Who am I to judge their existence based on the beliefs of some maniacs? No way someone with such innocence can cause any damage. While lost in my thoughts, the twin that was awake threw her hands towards mine, and the moment she touched me, I felt a weird connection between me and her. I felt as if she was my own blood and flesh. I felt as if I must keep her safe, which, of course, is what I am intending to do starting from now. I
I will make them all pay for what they've done to me. I will avenge my daughter's death. All of them will pay for it, starting with Damien, without missing Tristan or Luther. I wiped the last tear falling from my eye, then I made a promise to myself that I will never be the weak person I used to be. I won't lay my happiness on anyone's shoulder. I will be the father and mother of my little one. While lost in my thoughts, I didn't expect anyone to break my 'me and myself' moment until the door burst open. Hopefully, it wasn't Damien or anyone I hate to see. "How are you doing?" she asked, and all I could've done was look at her. She didn't take the hint and left me on my own. Instead, she spoke again. "I know it hurts..." she started, and I snapped at her. "You know sh*t...! How could you know about what you've never experienced? If you were a mom, maybe you would know how it feels to have a child, and you could imagine, and only imagine, what I am going through. The thing is - you're
Laura's point of view: I walked through the divine water from the lake where my soul was hiding. With each and every step, the smirk on my face grows bigger. Hopefully, my sister agreed to revive the wolf inside of me. Yes, I was able to hear my wolf inside of me, so there is a massive chance that I still have it, and the cure wasn't totally effective. Perhaps it just has a temporary effect, and my wolf needs a bit of help to be set free. Not to mention that I was able to walk under the sun, which proves that I'm more of a hybrid than a vampire. The more I walk in, the more I'm covered by water. I only stopped when the water was all over my neck. Amira looked at me with a very terrified look on her face. She's afraid of helping me. She doesn't want to have a hand in creating another monster. Little does she know - they already made me a monster. She started chanting what only witches could understand. As she was doing what she needed to do, the water started getting hotter, s
Laura’s point of view: I felt like a wave of electricity crossed my entire body which caused me to open my eyes, only to find a worried Amira who was trying to wake me up. “Finally!” She shouted, and I pushed her away. “Is this how you thank someone who saved your life?” “You saved what??” I shouted at her. “You were trying to burn me alive!” She looked at me as if I had grown two heads, then she questioned. “I was what?” “Trying to kill me! Didn’t you set the fire all around me?” I questioned her while doubting my question as the look on her face says that she has no clue about what I was saying. Not only the look on her face but also the rate of her heartbeats proves that she’s not lying. “There was no fire… You went inside, then disappeared inside of the water until you were thrown while unconscious outside of the lake.” Perhaps she was right. I mean, she is not lying… Fact, I guess that all that happened was only in my mind. “Help me up!” I asked while trying to get up o
Damien’s point of view: All I was doing was trying to protect her. I never meant to let her down… I never meant for anything like this to happen! I lost her; I know. Yet, I’m not giving up until I gain her back. If only I could go back in time, none of this would happen. I want to let my fear consume me and pull me away from the people I love. She was my one and only, and the devil inside of me wanted to hurt her. I couldn't stand having her by my side while dreaming each and every night about me, taking her soul away. Holding her bleeding heart between my hands. I felt angry knowing that she was carrying the offspring of another. I never forced myself to feel what she was feeling. I was too weak to protect her, and another took advantage of my weakness. I was the one to be blamed. Yet, the arrogant part of me refused to blame it all on me, and instead, I made her go through hell, although she was the one that saved my life. I can not believe that the hatred inside of my hear
Laura's point of view: I can tell if it is a dream or a reality that I can not understand. I mean, it is the same dream. Yet, why does it feel so real? They were playing again in that field full of flowers. But, then... One of them fell, and when the other three helped her up, the distance between them started getting bigger and bigger until there was no way that any of them would've touched the other. Right after, both of them turned and looked at me while speaking at the same time. The thing is that they both asked me to help them, and I felt … again… helpless, as I didn't know how to help them. I woke up breathless as every time I had the same nightmare. Only to find the hand of my little one wrapped around my finger while being quite uncomfortable sleeping. I alerted the nanny, which brought her right to my room. Then, I ordered her to make sure that nothing annoys my little one while she is sleeping. Right after, I left the room while heading right towards Damien's office.
Laura’s point of view: “Tristan!” I repeated the name of the man I trusted once and caused the doom I’m facing right now. The one he promised that he would save my life then used all he got of power to weaken me, manipulate me, and control me. The one who knows what happened exactly to my little one. He looked at me while giving me the impression of someone being betrayed, which kind of made me laugh. I laughed hard until I felt that I wasn’t able to laugh anymore. Then the anger inside of me started growing while I felt that I wasn’t able to contain it inside of my body. That’s why I started to shift. The thing was that I wasn’t on all fours as when I used to fully shift to my huge white wolf, and my fangs weren’t as clear as when I feel the hunger controlling my body. I was something different, and the stares I received from everyone who was there proved it to me. Well, it wasn’t about how I’m looking right now. All I cared about was knowing what happened to my little one. “
P.S.: New characters are being added to the story since it's a new volume. No worry, the previous ones still have their strong functions in the story. Avyanna's point of view: "Close the door!" I shouted at the annoying Brandon who just busted into my room. I was still lying in my bed while trying to force myself to think about nothing. Well, the moment I saw Brandon, I was more than sure that it wouldn't happen. "You're still asleep... Girl, you'd be in trouble!" Well, as much as I want to get angry since he reminded me about what I want to forget. Still, he was stating nothing but the truth. Brandon is my cousin, he is the one and only son of Uncle Alan and Aunt Amira. He is a year younger than me, but he acts as if he is the old one. "Leave me alone!" I tried to fire him away. "Get up... Lazy!" He tried to pull me up, and I tried to push him away from me. Of course, I failed. Although he was the youngest one, he was stronger than me. He inherited his werewolf genes from
Laura's point of view: As I was done speaking to Avyanna, I immediately made my way back to New Orleans.I made sure that only the best of our enforcers were involved in this voyage to New Orleans.I wasn't planning to involve Damien, so I didn't tell him about the call from Avyanna nor what she told me about. Same goes for Amira and Alan.I wanted to get over with the mission as fast as possible, and be sure that both my daughters are safe.Perhaps, I’m over controlling as everyone claims, but if it’s all that I need to be to make sure that my twins get a safe life - then so I’ll be.Before the jet landed, I received the urgent information I requested about the so-called alpha Roger. I can gladly state that the information is good for nothing.Yet, what reason does he have to pursue my daughters, and even wish for my death?Could it just be that he is one of those stupid greedy alphas that dreams about taking the throne?Even if he is, he should be set as an example to anyone who da
Laura’s point of view: "I don't blame her for running… I would do the same if I were her!" Damien burst out with the words, and I felt angry at him.Instead of dealing with our kingdom's real issues, I'm locked here while trying to figure out where my daughters were.I have witches on my tail; vampires, and even traitorous wolves roaming around my kingdom, and instead of taking actions like true leaders, I’m here playing the role of the bad mother.Worse than that, my mate is not supportive of me. He thinks I’m quite paranoid by being overly controlling of everything.I would have gone too far to believe that he doesn't see things the way I do if he wasn't there with me through all the ups and downs I've been through.Sometimes, I wish I were just Laura, the mateless girl rejected by her alpha mate, and then my story ends.As for now, I seem to be fighting an endless war without having anyone on my side.Fun fact, when I first came to the Palace, I thought of Queen Sofia in the worst
Avyanna's point of view: She just shouted; the end stumped away from us, is she for real? Brandon seemed not to trust Roger's wolf, neither did I. I can’t say the same for Rebel. In no time, Brandon shifted to his wolf then went for a run. It was a sign that he was in no mood, and I kind of understood him. I have to say it again, foolishness runs in the blood of our family - it’s official. I mean, how could she be that dumb to trust someone she barely knows. I’ve seen his wolf, he is stronger than what he claimed. I doubt anyone could easily escape him. Anyway, since he wanted to play that game, I’ll be glad to play it with him. I closed my eyes while thinking about Luther, the only one that still can have a bit of control over Rebel, because the last I do remember was that she's really into the role of I am a queen and no one knows better than me. I closed my eyes, then called his name the same way Austin told me to do. Part of me didn't believe that the link would work. I
Roger's point of view:I might underestimate that Avyanna girl, but that is a mistake that will not happen again. I made a note in my mind about the importance of getting rid of her as soon as possible.As for now, and since I am already discovered, I needed to find a way to get myself out of this mess with less amount of damage.The moment Rebel spots me, her eyes were all in disbelief. In no time, she was making her way toward me.“Shift!” She ordered, and I did as I was told.In no time, I was in my human form, totally naked. Fun fact, I knew that I might find a piece of clothes somewhere near to me, but I didn’t care to find any.I wanted my future queen to see the difference between a real man and the fake one by her side.I kind of do not regret coming here, especially after that I learned that the Brandon guy isn’t a real deal in her life.Based on the argument they had - their entire engagement is nothing but an arranged one. She won’t be that hurt when I finish his life.Well,
Avyanna's point of view: Something doesn’t seem right. I tried to learn some few things about alpha Roger, but the thing was that I couldn’t find a thing about him. Firstly, it was because no one wanted to talk to me after what happened. Second, it was because there was indeed nothing about him. It all started when I saw my sister and Brandon leaving his office while arguing. As it seems, Brandon doesn’t seem to like him, nor trust him either. Fun fact, Rebel met him just one day, and she was willing to trust him. Well, it seems that foolishness wasn’t something related to only me. Our family has a huge history when it comes to foolishness. Anyway, what was suspicious was that he went after them without any of them noticing. I would normally follow all of them to see what’s happening. The thing was that no one was around me, and no one was in his office. So I would be too dumb if I missed such a chance. I slid inside his office after that I masked my scent. It was one of
Roger's point of view:I saw the look on her face when she knew what I was. I saw the fear that she had while looking deep into my eyes. Part of her didn't want to believe that the one standing in front of her is a true alpha. You might be wondering but a true alpha I can be. Well, you can tell that I am an alpha bloodline, but stronger than a normal alpha. Why? Well, that also can be explained. The more I kill the more I get stronger. It is always a matter of time before I started having all of whoever I killed. She knew that if I kill her right away, all her power, special gifts, and even title would belong to me. It's just that I'm not thinking of killing her at all. I do have some other plans for her. I am a great alpha, and I deserve a great mate. My destined mate was too weak and I don't deserve someone like her. The reason why I ended her life. I ended that weak human before any sort of bond can be created between both us. I can't deny it, I do have nightmare
Rebel's point of view:I didn’t know since when I was asleep, but it feels like forever. It is so comfy that I don’t want to wake up. Matter of fact, things don’t always go the way we want. My phone rang and I ignored it. Not when it rains again. Well, whoever it is that person is doomed to death. This is what I thought before I saw my mother’s number on the screen of my phone. I answered the call while trying to get myself ready for whatever she was preparing for me. After all, I did wrong when I decided to go against her and come here. Still, I won’t give up on my sister. I will not let her feel the loneliness that I grew up feeling years ago. I made my decision, and whatever result is waiting for me, I’m ready to take it. I answered my mom, and as expected, she was deadly worried and angry at both of me and Brandon. Not when I told her what happened a day ago. First, she wanted to come and join us both, but that wouldn’t be a good idea. The reason why she allowed me and B
Avyanna's point of view: My sister already spent hours in the packhouse, meanwhile, I and my mate decided to go back to my mother's house. Trying to know that I was totally happy seeing her, especially knowing that she was the reason both me and my mate had our life so far. Brandon is here too, it is right now with her at the office of Rogers's house. Still, I wouldn't deny feeling a bit jealous. Especially when everyone bowed to her. I felt that this could be me. The thing is that I've never cared about power, Glory, or anything other things my mom wants from me. And when I saw that the same people who wanted to hurt me were bowing, shaking with fear, and ready to do anything to please my sister, I wanted to be her for a moment. I shook my head trying to throw away all those things. All I want to focus on right now is that she came all the way searching for me, and even saved my life. I should be grateful, but it's time for me, and my mate to leave. Well, here comes the i
Rebel’s point of view: The fire burned through my veins the moment a vast alpha wolf aimed to kill my sister. Brandon ran straight toward both of them while trying to get between Alpha, Avy, and Peter. The weird thing was that Brandon was knocked down the moment he was near the wolf. Seeing through the situation, it wasn’t doing us any favor. As a matter of fact, I just arrived six minutes ago. Still, I can tell how strong this alpha is. I’m even doubting if any of us will make it with less damage if we fought against an entire pack with such a strong alpha. The reason why I decided to avoid the fight was still not to show any weakness. I growl, giving the alpha a warning, and also, showing my dominance of the entire pack. After all, I am the future werewolves’ Queen, and I won’t believe any of them would dare fight against me, even that strong alpha. As I expected, the moment all of them acknowledged my presence due to my dominant aura, they all bowed to me. When I say all,
