I closed my eyes and waited for the brunt of his sword to descend on me while with the last hope in me; I reach out to the mother goddess for a last-minute miracle.
After waiting for what felt like hours to feel the brunt of his sword against my skin, I opened my eyes gradually to see what has stopped him from doing so.
Only to see him convulsing on the ground before me with blood gushing out of his ears, eyes, nose, mouth, literally every part of his body was bleeding, and within seconds, he bled out dried, and died. I was taken aback at the sudden change of event as I watched him dry up to bones in front of me. I hadn’t gotten out of my shock and confusion when I suddenly felt the presence of my mate beside me.
I quickly turned to face her direction and just in time, saw her losing consciousness. I ran towards her and caught her before she could hit the floor.
Not knowing what was going on and why she was here covered in blood, I tried to shake he
She finally showed how she was feeling and I understood at that moment what she meant.“Can I see her?” I asked her and diverted my eyes away from her and towards the operating room.“Yes, once she is cleaned and taken to the ward.”After hearing what she said, I ignored her and went back to my previous position. I could feel her looking at me and wanting to say more but right now, I’m not in the mood to hear anything from her.Right now all I could think of is my mate, and the more I think of how she is lying down there on the bed, helplessly, my anger towards Mother Increased.An hour later or so, she was finally pushed out of the operating room by several medical aids and into the room they had prepared for her. I walked towards them and maintained a close distance as I follow them to the room. I waited for them at the entrance to get her situated and when they were done attending to her; they all bowed at me and left the room one afte
Walking into their room, I saw two of the most adorable pups ever, lying down in their cribs, sleeping peacefully and not having a clue of what was going on around them. I walk quietly towards them and saw that they weren’t only adorable but they looked so much like her. Even though they were just given birth to, the similarities between them and their mother were so obvious. My heart suddenly tightened in severe pain and went on my knees as I held my heart tightly. This only indicated one thing, and that was my mate struggling for her life and slipping away. I stood up to run towards the infirmary but came to a halt as my pups suddenly burst out crying at the same time and I knew instantly they also felt what I felt just now. I turned around and walk back towards them, ignoring the pain I was feeling. I can’t let them go through it. They are too little to be feeling this much pain. I need to do something to stop them from feeling such
It’s been years since the war happened, and ever since, things had changed drastically.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTI want to use this medium to say a big thank you to all my readers for taking their time to read TSW and patiently following through to the end. You guys are the best. Despite the delays on uploads at some point, you were still patiently committed to TSW.Writing TSW has not been easy as it is my first novel to write.

In an old house that looks abandoned from the outside, an old man sitting beside the only fire source in the sitting room, holding a very old-looking scroll, and a look of uncertainty was written all over his face. He stared down at the book in his hand and sighed deeply. he opened it and read what was written in it. "Despite the divine spirits warning the Lycans should avoid pride because he only held power with the moon goddess's permission. The Lycans declared themselves the author of their own good fortune and the designer of their own destiny which led to lots of wars among themselves thereby destroying the earth. when they were at the edge of destroying the planet, a light suddenly appeared from above, and in it came a woman with an ethereal beauty sitting on a white horse. her lovely long flowing hair was beautifully adorned with a crescent moon crown surrounded by stars. she was the moon goddess. "Lycans to you, it is spoken, your powers have departed from you and you shall
Ashley "No..... no... please stop get away from..... no... no....." I suddenly wake up from my sleep breathing heavily. I quickly turn on the light on my bedside table and check the time on the wall across the room. It says 3:00 am. I tried recalling my dream but couldn't. This was not the first time it happened. It's been going on for the past two weeks. since I clocked 18, all I know is it always terrifies me and it also felt so real and it also happens at exactly 3:00 am but I end up not recalling anything at all. I took a deep breath, get up from my bed, and went to the bathroom. I quickly splash water on my face and look down at my hands and notice that they were still shaking. I tried to steady them and look into the mirror. I notice some changes in my body, it has become more sculpted and twine-thin. My waist is now tapered compare to before and now has an olive skin complexion. my eyebrows more slender as though
Luckily for me, it's been smooth going so far. I haven't encountered any trouble yet today and hope it will be like that for the rest of the day. I quickly get myself ready for school. On getting to school, I hoped and prayed once more for today to be normal for me. I keep my head down as I find my way to my classroom. My stomach keeps grumbling because I haven't had my breakfast yet. I check my phone for bank alert, as today is the last day of the month, waiting for Mrs. Johnson whom I work for as a library assistant to give me my salary. So I keep checking my phone as I sit down on my seat....in the far corner of the classroom near the window. I pretend to be looking out the window while at the same time being alert, listening to everything around me. And I rather sense that my classmates are busy today, as they gather in groups talking among themselves. I horn my listening ability to hear what they are talking about properly.
Well, that was close. God knows what would have happened had his mate not stopped him. I sit back in my seat as everyone else dispatched and the teacher also entered right at that moment. I think it's high time I left the pack. I've been thinking about leaving for some days now ever since the changes started. I can only hide them for a while. I don't know what will happen once they are discovered. Today was a close call and I can't afford them to know. It could lead to my death once discovered. Luckily for me, I was soon forgotten because of the excitement in the air. Mrs. Johnson even added a bonus to my salary because of it which I was grateful for since I can now add more to my savings. The day went by quickly and classes were over before we knew it. When I got to the packhouse, everywhere was filled with preparations and I know for one that I would definitely be ignored for the rest of the day and mostly tomorrow also hopefully. I quickly went dow

ZeidI braced myself for what was to come as I watch him gradually make his way towards me.It felt like hours before he got to where I was standing, whereas it was just a few seconds.I took a shaken step back when I finally saw who it was."Surprise!!!" he said with his hands spread out wide and a huge smile on his face."Un... Uncle Maxwell. Y... You are the mastermind behind this." I stammered in surprise."Hehehe, of course. Who else has the power to do so if not me? Besides Zeid, It is very obvious that someone with ability is the one behind it all. Besides, you had me thinking of how dumb you could be by not thinking outside the box to find out. I mean who else apart from the Royal families can display an ounce of ability. Considering the fact that I'm also a royal, you should have discovered me a long time ago. Tsk"He mocked.“But why would you think so? To you and my cousin, I was anything but a royal and hardly anyon
I quickly contemplated on what to do as the pain gradually set in. From the distance at which I saw them to the palace, it will take them approximately five to six hours to get here if I’m not mistaken. Therefore it gives the palace guards and the warriors enough time to prepare for their arrival if I contact my mate and inform him about it. After making up my mind, I open the mind link between my mate and me and informed him immediately but left behind the news of me going into labor so as not to distract him. Not long after I told him, all the warriors around the palace were summoned to prepare for the upcoming battle and the war bell was rung as a warning to everyone that we were under attack. While my mate opened a general mind link to all the pack members that the women that were not warriors, with all the children and the elderly were to retreat to the safe bunk immediately. Seeing that everywhere was in an uproar, I walked gradually into the cham
I let out a heave of disappointment as I thought she might know who it was.“Rest assured my dear, that even though we don’t know his identity and the length of what he is capable of doing, we have you to save everyone. You are destined to do so and you will succeed in doing so.” She assured me.“Yes, mother. That’s why I’ve come to seek your guidance.”“Alright child, enough talking. Let’s begin. Oh, before I forgot, I will summon Zeid to…”Hearing this, I panicked immediately because I didn’t want him to know about any of this, and interrupted her saying, “No mother, please don’t. I don’t want him to know about this.”She was slightly surprised at my outburst before shaking her head and saying, “Of course child, knowing how my son can be, I wouldn’t dare. The reason why I want to summon him was to tell him to move your coronation forward.
“What…what do you mean by that?” My mate asked him. His voice deepened in anger.“What I mean to say was that Lady Anya vanished into thin air immediately after the dungeon was attacked. No one knew how it happened because she didn’t escape through the entrance. We only knew of her disappearance when a guard went to check if any of the inmates escaped, and she happened to be the only one that did.But bro, what baffled me was that she escaped with her cell gate still intact. There was no forced entrance or damage to the door. It was also still locked when we got there after the guard came to report to us. It was as though she disappeared just like that. It doesn’t sound logical but that was what happened.” He explained to my mate.To say I was surprised by the turn of events would be a lie. I knew from the moment I heard that there was an attack at the dungeon, that this would be the result.My mate kept quiet fo
