Leila POV.A voice startled us making me jump as I wasn't expecting anyone to show up and talk. I raised my head to look at whose voice it was."Aurora, what are you doing here? The young lady named Maddy asked."Is this how you are supposed to greet your princess? Guards, make them respect me apart from the werewolf. I don't blame her since she didn't know who I am," the lady whom intervened and whose name is Aurora from what I heard said arrogantly.Seriously, I am jealous of her. The way she carries herself and also the powerful and dominating aura around her. Wish we can be friends so that I can learn from her.I bow down immediately I heard that she was the princess of the lycans to avoid getting myself in trouble and unnecessary enemity."See, even the werewolves are more respectful than the pups raised within the kingdom and who have all the necessary advantages and opportunities," she said with a scoff making me giggle inwardly and proud that the bitchy girls are getting it th
Leila POV."Come on, let us go back to the ball," Aurora said as she grabbed my hand.I knew that I had to remain silent and not ruin her new happy mood by claiming that I wanted to use the bathroom. I guess I had to remain silent."Girl, wish you are my best friend. I don't have a friend in this big palace," she said as we walked into the washroom."I thought that we are going back to the ball?" I asked since at the moment, I really didn't understand her."We wee both walking on the hallway and in a particular direction which only leads to the washroom so I guessed that you wanted to use the washroom. I too needed to," she said and winked me making me laugh out loud."Okay, let's hurry up then go back to the hall. I am sure that my sister is looking for me since I have taken sometimes," I said"Fine," she said as she turned around.Everything looked luxurious and I felt envious of the richness. I wonder whether I would get a chance to be coming here if my mate is a lycan.After some
Leila's POV.To my utter disappointment, I didn't see him in the hall but I could tell that he is close.I kept staring at the door so that I may not miss him when he gets in."What is she looking at?" I heard Marcus ask but I was so occupied to look at him and answer since I was afraid that any moment I remove my eyes from the door, he might escape."The door," Aurora asked."Don't tell me that you aren't her mate? She is sensing her mate at the door and that's why she is looking at door's direction," Elana explained."Yeah, I also wonder who is the lycan who is her mate," Aurora said.We the sound of glass been tapping with a spoon interrupted my thoughts."Sit down already, dad hates people standing when addressing something, Aurora said as she grabbed my hand and pulled me to the vacant sit next to her."Good evening..." The king trailed but his eyes fell on our table and gave Aurora a question eyes.We turned to her and saw her giving her father an innocent smile making us chuckl
Leila's POV."Shit, Leila. Aurora do you have a hideout here?' Elana asked panickly.I really couldn't blame her since I was also panicking. Who wouldn't when you knew the bad guys were coming for you?"Why? I thought that you were a beta hence a warrior? Why do you want to hide?" Aurora asked with a smile on her face."How the hell do you have the time to joke when we are under an attack?" Marcus asked as he stood up while been on guard."Cause I don't think that they are stupid enough to come into a room that is full of alphas, betas and gammas," she said."That's where you are wrong, they are here to attack the leaders," Marcus told her."B...ut...but, why?" she asked."They are here for Leila," Elana said."What? How do you know?""They always attack. They wanted to kidnap her but mom protected her with her life. There is no way they will let her be with her mate," Elana explained and I looked at her since she knew more than I did and I was starting to have questions."What? Why d
THIRD POV.The ground was shaking vigorously that people were falling down one after the other when it also started cracking.Seeing this and hearing his mate's cries and scream, Aiden was shocked and still afraid. Thinking that she was in danger or that they had successfully gotten her, he killed the person he was fighting with mercilessly by slicing off his head. He held the sword firmly as he started running to the direction of the screams without caring what was happening with the nature. All he thought was only one thing. To save his mate.The ground started cracking before him, making him be confuse and tremor a little as he wondered his next step.Taking steps back, he felt someone behind him thus he suddenly stopped making the person halt also. He stood there expressionless and held his breath as he listened to the man's breathe. After a couple of seconds of listening and been motionless, he held his sword tightly as he raised it up. Since the blade was so sharp and cleaning t
Leila POV.As soon as I said those words, I felt all eyes on me. I knew that they doubted me but who would really blame them when I myself doubt myself?"What did you just say?" Marcus asked making me wonder when he arrived."What you just heard," I snapped even though I didn't want to yell at him.I ignored everyone and concentrated on my sister who was struggling to breath cause of pain.I looked at the wound and my eyes started to widen up as if they were increasing i size and at the same time, I started seeing more clearly. I found my eyes penetrating her skin and I could see how the wound was so deep and whether the sword hard injured her major organs. "Didn't you just say that you can heal her? Then what are you doing? Just hurry up instead of wasting time!" Marcus shouted interrupt me from what I was doing."I think you are also hurt somewhere. Who the hell do you think you are to shout at me? or do you think that she is just important to you and a nobody to me? Maybe I should
Third POV.It has been hours since the ambush. Despite that the party did not end well and the alphas were supposed to go to their packs, they couldn't since they had to come together and discuss how to defeat their common enemy. Nonetheless, the Black Moon Pack Alpha's family had angry and ugly faces. After discovering that Leila was actually Liam's mate but was rejected, they knew for a fact that their son will not be able to escape the werewolf punishment rules.How they wished that they had known beforehand and prevented such a calamity to happen to their only son whom they were looking forward for him to take over the throne after he gets the mate.Three figures were in a dark room, one on the window gazing outside, the others was seated on the couch. Even though the room was dark, they could see vividly how the room looked like and what was going on due to the presence of candle lights but the gloomy atmosphere would make one wonder whether one of their people had died. Turning
Aiden's POV."Yes, she linked her shifting and their whereabouts with her life,"Amanda said."But if that's the case, then why was there an attack in Black Moon Pack two years ago? On Leila's sixteenth birthday?" I asked."It's not hard to calculate and guess. After all,their birth was prophesied so I guess the rogues have been waiting for sixteen years and also during that period, it seems that they were investigating which pack was a child born when the occurrences happened," Mike said."The Black Moon Pack was not the only pack that was attacked. They attacked two more packs and took the people who were born on that day, who shifted on that day. Since all werewolves shift for the first time on their sixteen birthday, they attacked and took them but luckily, Leila didn't shift. During these two years, maybe they have been experimenting on the two girls who were kidnapped and they later found out that the kids they picked, none of them was the person they were looking for so they use
Third POV.“Lyannette, go back home. Your father and I will go down there to see where we can help if Leila is in danger,” Selene said to her daughter who was walking out of Erebus's mansion.“Okay. I will be busy here anyway,” she said as she winked at her mom who chuckled as she understood what she was up to.Although it was risky doing so, she knew that Lynette was stronger than others thus she couldn't be defeated. Also, she would ask some of the warriors to be at her disposal if she needed their help.Erebus stood still as he was confused cause he didn’t know what to do.At the rogue's pack:Amaya looked at Oizys coldly as if she had never seen someone with the guts to hurt her. She looked at the puppet that had walked in with Oizys and had been standing behind her as if it were her bodyguard. The more she looked at it the more she felt familiar, making her frown as the only people she was supposed to feel familiar with were her mother and Elaine.The puppet felt eyes on it making
Third POV. “Dad?” Elana asked as she couldn’t believe it. Although it had been a long time since she saw her father, she couldn’t still recognize his voice anytime she heard it. She turned around and looked at the man who was at the entrance. If one didn’t know, they would mistake Josiah for being older than the other man because the man still looked young. “Yes it is me, my dear child,” Elias said with a smile on his face when he hurriedly walked towards his eldest daughter. Elana forgot how the others always saw her, ran towards her father, and jumped into his arms. “Dad. Why did you leave us?” she asked in a whisper as she cried. She poured all the grievances she had suffered and she had endured cause she didn’t want either Marcus or Leila to know on her father’s shoulder. “I am sorry dear but I have always had an eye on you guys,” Elias said as he patted her back as a way to soothe her. Hearing this, Elana stopped crying and looked at her father with anger in her eyes. “
Third POV. The more Oizys continued to inject Leila with the drug the more she frowned. It was supposed to work after ten times but she had injected her more than twenty times. Cause of this, she started to doubt whether Leila’s darkness was really locked up or not. “Leila, are you sure your darkness hasn’t awakened yet?” she asked with a frown on her face. As someone who has been taught how to read people’s expressions, Leila could tell that she had continued playing dumb for a long time making Oizys start suspecting her. Leila looked at her innocently and in confusion. “Aunt, you know I don’t know how to tell when my darkness is awake,” Leila said, making the alpha chuckle while Oizys face slapped herself cause she now understood why Leila wasn’t saying anything else apart from crying out loudly when she was being injected. She felt frustrated at how stupid she was believing that the little girl could detect it. “What are you feeling currently?” Oizys asked with a bit of worr
Third POV. “Why did I even marry you in the first place?” Erebus continued cussing at the woman making everyone halt what they were doing and looked at him. They had never seen him be so angry before thus it was quite shocking. Lynnette looked at her father in amusement and knew that if things escalated to this point, he might make them suffer so much. Now, she indeed understood her value and position in her father’s heart. “Dear, what are you saying? Don’t forget that I am even more pure than you! You have darkness in you which causes you to be evil. Can’t you think that it was the darkness inside them that made them be how they are now? Be so malicious and have the urge to see blood?” the wife asked, making Erebus even more furious. “You woman! I will kill you today!” he shouted angrily but the woman just rolled her eyes as she wasn’t afraid of death cause she knew that she would still die today even if she remained silent. “I know that even if you won’t kill me your precious d
Third POV. The almighty Erebus coward upon hearing the stern angelic yet cold voice. He looked in the direction and saw Selene and Endymion walk in. Although he was looking at them, they were looking at Lyannette who was standing beside Erebus as they were shocked to see her there. “Lyannette, what are you doing here?” Endymion asked cause he felt uncomfortable with her standing next to Endymion. He felt as if his precious daughter had been snatched away from him. “I saw guys vanishing and thought you would be in trouble if you didn’t ask the guards to follow you. Cause of that, I was coming to ask Dad to help me find where you two were going but upon coming, I found you had been ambushed hence I had to take care of it,” she answered as she ran to them. “Mom, are you okay?” she asked as she searched for injuries on her body. Selene shook her head as she remembered her husband's words. Truly, Lyannette loved her so much. “Mom, I ask Dad to divorce and kill that woman for wantin
Third POV.Leila cooperated with Oizys to give her what she wanted with an innocent look on her face.Oizys looked at Leila and felt that she was so stupid and she felt that she was as lucky as she would be able to control Leila’s darkness when it awakes as it would have been awakened by her and not its own.“Leila, how are you feeling now?” She asked with an expecting look which made Leila think deeply.“I really don’t know aunty. What should I?” she asked as she pretended to be anxious.Although Oizys was disappointed that Leila couldn’t feel anything, she didn’t show it as she was afraid that Leila would notice something was wrong.“If that’s the case, I will add a few doses then we will see. Okay?” Oizys said with a forced smile on her face.“Okay aunty,” Leila replied as she nodded her head.When she saw the injection, she pretended that she was afraid of it and took a moment to close her eyes so she could try reaching out to Amaya.“What is Amaya doing? Is the drug affecting her?
Third POV.“Lyannette gave birth?” he asked in disbelief.“Yes sir. She has two daughters, Elana and Leila but they have lived all their lives on the land,” the servant answered as she looked up to see the expression on his face.“I have granddaughters? My precious girl has two daughters. Why have I never heard of it?” he asked himself as he still found it unbelievable.The servant was one of Selene’s trusted messengers thus she knew more than everyone else.“I don’t know. Although my Lord didn’t want you to know, didn’t you send your daughter to earth to always keep an eye on Lyannette? Didn’t she tell you?’ she asked as she pretended to be curious.As expected, Erebus' eyes turned cold.“Oizys! Why did she dare keep this from me? Has she forgotten who her father is?” he asked angrily.Lynnette had just arrived at the mansion. Just as she was about to walk through the front door, she saw her mother and stepfather fighting some warriors, making her frown.Although she had followed them
Third POV. “What are you doing?” He asked immediately before the servant went as he felt that his wife was acting rather restless “What are you trying to say? I have to go so that he can save Leila!”Selene told him immediately as she panicked, making Endymion frown. He also had always thought that she didn’t love the girls but seeing her panicking look, she knew that maybe she indeed loved them. “But are you the moon goddess? The rogues also worship you, I am sure that if you talk to their alpha, he will help you out,” he told her. “No, he won’t! His mind has already been corrupted by Oizys. Although I am their goddess. They are now Oizys puppets,” she told him calmly. “Come on, let’s go. If anything happens to her, Lyannette will never forgive me! She might even choose to live with Erebus instead of me,” Selene said with worry in her eyes. “She will understand. She always does. You, on the other hand, are behaving as if she is a tool that you have to fight for,” Endymion said
Third POV. “What drug? Aunty, did you use drugs to make such a puppet?” Leila asked as she pretended to be curious. “It isn’t a puppet! It is one of my armies!” Oizys shouted angrily, making both Leila and the Alpha speechless. “An army? Then what are we? It is just a puppet cause it can’t talk and does everything you tell it to!” The alpha said in his mind but he couldn’t say it lousy afraid of what might become of him. He feared that he might become one of her so-called armies. Leila tried her best to avoid rolling her eyes on her. “Sorry, Aunty. I thought it was a puppet,” Leila said, making Oizys wish she could kill her while Alpha wondered where she had gotten the guts from. ‘Didn’t she know how much the woman hates her cause she keeps provoking her?’ “Aunty, will we be using the drug to make armies?” Leila asked as she knew when to stop. As expected. Oizys facial expression calmed a little bit. “No, but it would help in awakening your darkness,” Oizys told her as she f
