Following his devastating betrayal, Elena meets her brutal end at the hands of the lycan king during a violent invasion. But death was only the beginning. She awakens in the body of a woman in the Lycan castle, surrounded by mysteries of her former life. Was she brought back for revenge or did fate have other plans?

He stirred in my arms, his soft whimpers blending with the rising tension in the room. Lisa’s claws extended, her body heating up as she started walking towards the door. The knock came again, causing my blood to run cold. How was someone able to track us through the tunnel? I thought Lisa said it was a secret. The second knock pushed the door in and it creaked open. I heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing who it was. Garrison. Lisa’s claws retracted and I saw her chest return to base with a heavy sigh. “Your grace,” she greeted with a bow.“I’m sorry I startled you,” Garrison apologized, his eres flicking between me and the child in my arms. They were filled with a deepening sense of passion and love as he inched closer. His gaze shifted back to me, with his hand racing up my sleeve. “Can I?” He breathed.“Sure,” I replied with a smile. I gently passed the boy into his arm
~ ELENA’S POV ~“I…” that was the only word I could think of. A million thoughts raced through my mind. What was going to tell him? I buried my face, my hand caressing my neck, feeling for the place where the birthmark was supposed to be. The air around us thickened, and his expression went from one of concern to that of suspicion. “The birthmark,” I muttered,lifting my face and looking back into his ash eyes. “ Must have been taken away by the moon goddess. Maybe it was her way of cleansing me to bring me back,” I responded, hoping he would buy it.And he did. His brows dropped and he reached for my hand again. “My bad. I should have thought about that too,” he apologized.“It’s fine Garrison. I understand,” I responded, feeling the rate of my heart dropping to normal. Another minute of safety earned. I just had to keep up with it for as long as I could. And always think smart and fast. Garrison stood up, taking my hand and helping me to my feet. “Come, the hall is full of people
~ ELENA’S POV ~Was Rhoda pregnant? I thought. I waited for Lisa to confirm that the door was locked before making her way back to me. I sat, ready to listen to all she had to say. Maybe if I needed answers, Lisa was just the right person to begin with. I tried to steady my composure as she approached. Her smile softened as if she had just given me the news of a lifetime. Inside, my mind raced. What other news was waiting for me ahead? She sat by my side, and I saw her hands fidgeting as it clutched the hem of her dress. She was nervous. “I suspected foul play after I was sent out of the room when you went into labor,” she started, drawing my interest in.“I refused to leave completely. When I couldn’t hear your voice again, or that of a child, I knew something was wrong. The mid-wives all left your room and I came in. I wasn’t able to… to save you. But I saved the baby,” she narrated.I swallowed hard. She’d left me speechless. I searched my mind for the perfect reply, but non was
~ELENA’S POV~ Did he just say mate? The shock of his touch sent a jolt down my spine. I wanted to push him away, yell at him and remind him of how he killed me in the woods, leaving me to rot in cold blood. But the confusion whirling in my head wasn’t settled yet. He pulled away, cleaning his tears immediately. It was almost as if he’d forgotten that we weren’t alone and that awareness just returned to him. “ I…I didn’t want to believe it when I was informed of your…” his sheds hung in the air.I saw the difficulty as he fought with his words. His wrist only grasped my arm tighter, like he was now glued to me. “When I was told you were murdered. I thought I would never get to see you again,” he completed. I couldn’t believe my ears. This was the same man who murdered me in cold blood. The same beast who slit my throat and left me for dead. His eyes this time weren’t as dark and cold as they were in the forest last night. Instead, there was a glint of emotion. Relief, Love, Surpr
~ ELENA’S POV ~I ran through the chaos in the courtyard, my heart racing with fear. The once silent and peaceful night was now in disarray, screams of anguish and pain coming from all sides. The night was lit with fire burning down houses and werewolves.The scent of blood hung thick in the air, deepening the sense of dread which filled the atmosphere. I placed my hand on my stomach, desperate to find Vernon. He needs to know about the child before something bad happens. I could feel it in my guts that this night was going to go down a bad lane. The doctor and I burst out in the garden which was already set ablaze. The sharp clang of swords of the warriors rang in the air, sending cold chills down my spine.As we made a turn for the green house just outside the gates of the garden, I saw Vernon. I froze dead in my tracks as I saw him fighting off the Lycans who charged at him. It wasn’t his loyalty to the pack that made my blood run cold.It was the way he shielded Viola. His body s
~ ELENA’S POV ~I sat on the edge of the bed, my heart racing as doctor Tancredi walked bask to me. The walls of the room felt like they were closing around me, a mix of emotions coursing through my veins. I couldn’t quite place my hand on what to call it.Hope, fear or disbelief?She handed the result to me again with a smile on her face. “It came out as earlier. You’re pregnant Luna,” the doctor confirmed. The words hit me like a bolt of lightening. Pregnant? But how? My mind raced as I tried to recall the last one I was intimate with Vernon. It turned out to be the same period of time. Almost three weeks ago Vernon returned from his normal woods wandering late at night. He was different that particular night. He wanted me like he’d always wanted me when our love was still fresh. We got intimate. And after that day, he returned to his cold, distant self.I snapped out of my thoughts and turned to the doctor. “Are you certain? Have you urm…confirmed you made no omission or you know
~ELENA’S POV ~I stood before the grand mirror in my chambers, staring at what was left of me. My hands ran down the embroidery of my ceremonial gown—heavy and suffocating. Just like the weight of being the Alpha of Sizzle pack which I carried for years.Unfortunately, that weight was taken off my shoulder. At first I was happy I was doing something like that. Sacrificing my position for my mate, Vernon. That was the best decision to me given the fact that I couldn’t morph.But it turned into a nightmare after I couldn’t give him an heir. Tonight was supposed to be a night of celebration for the Alpha and his family as tradition demanded. I was suppose to be the one sitting on the silver throne made for the alpha.Yet here I was, drowning in sorrows while the man I trusted the most made jolly in the halls, not bothering where I was.
