Where the hell was she? It’s eleven. I swear Axel, if this time I find her sauntering around the woods, alone, I will punish her. He grunted showing his disapproval of letting me do anything to hurt our mate. Selfish dog, as if I’m not affected when she’s hurt.
Deciding to have a quick bath I stripped and went inside the bathroom, turned on the shower and stood under the soothing hot water pouring over me.
Remembering how she scowled at me in the ground today when Maya refused to train her, I chuckled. I was right. I knew she was going to seek Maya's help out therefore I told her beforehand to not accept her offer. Mayas is a good girl and a part of me was delighted to see her f

“What?” I panted, his face hovered above mine. I noticed that his eyes were back to his stormy ones. Axel. He pushed Axel back. I think I know what happened. He was doing okay until Axel lost control, that stupid dumbo, and tried to come through but Asher strained him back. His eyes shouted for more, they weren’t yet satisfied but he stopped. He pulled himself up from me and sighed heavily. I lay there, winded and dazed, astonished at the peculiar feeling of my core, the throbbing of every inch of my body. Is this what desire feels like? “Why did you do that?” he roughened his hair. Staring at the ceiling above, too lost in the former moment, I licked my lips. The lips he kissed on. “Because I wanted to,” All of a sudden the ceiling seemed very interesting to look at. I don’t regret what I did; baffled to my very heart, yes, but there is no guilt . I liked every moment of it. Giving him that answer seemed like the

Asher’s POV:“How many are dead?” I inquired.“The kid is the only survivor,” Cole glanced at the nine year old trembling boy, his lips quivering his eyes wide from all the traumatic mayhem he saw. His left arm had a sharp claw mark which held dried blood. That wasn’t from a vampire.Maya was attending to him. Holding his shaky hand in hers, she placed her other hand on his wound softly and closing her eyes she relaxed herself, taking a deep breath through her nostrils. The wound slowly started to heal as it faded from the corners. The boy watched her with amused eyes but he seemed too depleted to react.“Rogues were also involved,” Cole informed and my jaw tightened as I pursed my lips together.Suddenly anger washed over me, I scoffed. How awful is this world! Slaughtering people without any reason, killing children, spreading isolation, and fear but for what? To prove a fucking poi

My thought was ruined by the sudden bang on the room’s door. A servant ran in seeming as if he had seen ghosts, with sweat dripping down his face, a horrified expression settled on his face. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Asher with a frown hanging over his forehead. Alpha Killian continued picking peas from his plate by a fork while Alpha Solomon paid attention to the restless servant. Cole, Gray, Maya and Felicia had their focus glued onto that man. “What is it?” Asher demanded. The air was suddenly tense and the alert gazes from Asher and everyone were really giving me an off sentiment. “Alpha Kane from The Assembly,” he gulped, “He’s here,” The fork stopped midway air just a few centimeters away from Alpha Killian’s lips and he stared at the servant in awe. Alpha Solomon sighed shook his head “Kane?” it was Alpha Solomon. “What the hell is he doing here?” He muttered bitterly throwing a sharp glare at Asher. “Where

“What do you want Jacob?” Asher demanded. “Ever since you placed your foot on my territory, things haven’t been working out according to me. Your presence has been proven to be a nuisance. A pain in my ass!” He took another step forward. “Stop blaming me for everything Asher. This old habit of yours,” Jacob scoffed and then shrugged, “it’s not my fault things aren't going in your favor. Could be for the better, I suppose’ His eyes landed on me and stayed there as a smile made its way on his lips. A dangerous snarl came from behind me which made Jacob look at him. Asher warned, “Don’t look at her like that. You’ve been eyeing my mate since the day you have arrived. Do you think I’m blind?” he took one more step forward and thank God I was in front of him. He only towered over me but didn’t cross me. My hands landed on his arms to keep him from going further but he didn’t look at me. My eyes flickered behind him to watch Sabine. She was leaning against the staircase with folded arms e

Asher kneed him in his stomach but Jacob recovered from it. He went offensive while Asher was playing defensive. Despite the powerful blows Asher managed to back Jacob up to a corner. A tree behind him! Jacob glanced back and then ducked dodging the elbow to the face from Asher. He pushed Asher back and then made a jump. One of his legs pushed against the tree making his shoot higher, he was facing Asher who regained his balance from the push. He was flying in the air! That’s when Sabine’s loud voice filled my ears. “Shift,” Obediently, as if all he was waiting for was her command, Jacob shifted mid-air and a black giant wolf growled while it took form. My breath hitched as it jumped over Asher who was still in his human form. Thankfully, Asher was able to roll out of its way. Jacobs’s wolf was ferocious and the color only complimented his brutality. Loud snarls came from within him as he towered over Asher who looked enraged. The ground shook as he ran towards Asher and I was stu

I froze at his words as he whispered, “The smell of your arousal his captivating,”Instead of feeling ashamed I was more turned on. I could feel his heated gaze on myself, his warm breath on my cheeks. Gripping the blanket tightly in my fists, I tried to remain calm and not give him any reaction but he wasn’t stopping. Truth be told, I didn’t want him to stop either.The moment his lips nibbled my earlobe I went still, my breath hitched and my skin burned. A small gasp escaped my throat and he pulled away. I turned my head to look at him. Why the fuck would he do that?My eyes were wide with embarrassment. Yea, now I was embarrassed.“Did you like that?” his voice was hoarse and thick.And just like that, I could not utter a single damn word. What the hell is he doing to me?He leaned closer just an inch away from touching my lips with his, “I’ll take that as a yes, hmm,”His nose touched my cheek and he inhaled deeply while I lay there, still as a rock, not knowing if I was enjoying

Asher's POV: I left the office in pure frustration. Vampires! Those sickly blood sucking assholes! Are they finally waging war? Should I pay a visit to that pale retard of a King? No, no I cannot be seeming vulnerable. Fuck me! How do they know about Aurelia? Who am i kidding? Of course everyone knows. They aren't idiots. I should have been careful, I should have knwn I couldn't have hide her from everyone for much longer. Everyones been talking about her I know it. She’s human damn it. She’s weak, fragile…she’s mine. I opened the door of my room. She wasn’t on the couch, my eyes trailed to the bathroom door. Without thinking, I barged towards the door. Last nights’ thought got me further triggered. She dare insult me like that. I’ll show you sweetheart. You couldn’t have chosen a better time than last night to fuck me up like this. I gripped the handle so tight, it broke and as soon as I entered, I heard her yelp like a little baby. Part of me was relieved to see her wearing a

The Mansion was bustling with a vivacious crowd. Expensive cars drove in, shimmery dresses sparkled under the moon which shone brightly as ever. The vibrant lighting in the Grand Hall uplifted the moods and the soft music playing added the energy to it. Amongst the affluent crowd with their bold ambience, I felt like a weak prey that could be easily hunted and killed. The scent of my fear was stronger than their expensive colognes. I hadn’t joined them yet. I was only observing them from upstairs behind the curtain dressed in a white ball dress. It was see through from my stomach and was backless designed in a way it seemed as if made from ice crystals. The fall of the dress had tailored pearls giving it a light ice blue tint. I could easily be mistaken for a runaway bride…or a bride trying to run away. But I was not a bride today. I was the Kings mate, the supposed Queen. It sounded funnier today than any other normal day. Perhaps because I was going to be declared and if it comes

So this was it. I was dying. This was my story!Before it could even start it ended. An ending caused by my foolishness and carelessness. An ending I brought upon myself which only added on to Asher’s misery.I couldn’t move, could not feel anything. I just felt cold, extremely cold. Derek pulled back.“That was the best I have ever had,”He pulled his hands back from me and I fell on this floor.All the time my eyes were on Asher. He broke free from them, or maybe they let him go.All I know was that he hugged me in his arms as he sat on the ground, picking me in his arms.“No, no, no” he cried, “Aurelia,” for the first time…and the last… I saw Asher Zane shed tears.It broke me.Even on the brink of death, seeing him cry because of me, complexly broke me.I love you Asher. I love you and I’m sorry I was unable to tell you this sooner. So many things left unsaid…I’m so sorry.His warm hand cupped my cheeks, “Stay with me Aurelia, stay with me,” he kissed my forehead.That brought me

Derek’s POV: Wearing my black shirt I left the room, shirt left unbuttoned as I walked through the empty hallways of the Palace. I had to meet the King. It was time we went forth with the plan. “What’s the hurry Derek?” King Luther slurred as he drank from the sixth human who lay topless on the table. The rest were lifelessly settled on the floor. King Luther wasn’t a fat grumpy King, no, he was smart and handsome even being six hundred years old. No spark was lost. That’s the beauty of a Vampire. Flawless beauty unlike those furry stinky animals! “It has to be done now,” “But you just paid them a visit,” he pointed out. “It’s almost a week now. They won’t be expecting a visit anytime soon which it makes it perfect. I’ll be extra discreet,” I smiled. He laughed and held a napkin in his hand. “Go, take whoever you need,” he wiped the blood that ran down his chin. I gave him a nod and left. I had to pay Lisa a visit first. Entering her room, I scanned it but she wasn’t there. An

Now with this new truth about me, a lot of questions were answered but I was still figuring out a way to tell Asher. How can I just drop the bomb on him? As absurd as it sounds it also seems impossible.There has to be a way in which I could prove it to him. Since he, or anyone for that matter, can’t see my mark, it only adds complication. It was understandable why Rufus was not in the favor of me just blubbering it all out to Asher.As much as I wanted to, I couldn’t. I could not go up to him and tell him that I was the last of the White Crescents, the royal pack which was wiped out thousands of years ago.Guess it would have to wait till I can train my body enough to bring out my wolf!It was mid-February so the land was covered in snow. As I breathed near the window mist formed on the glass. I traced out with my index finger, W, O, L, F.What would she be like? I know all White Crescents have white wolves with blue eyes. How big would she be? She has to be a ‘she’ right; I mean obv

Calming my rapid heartbeat, I prepared myself to have conversation with the purple eyed man. I had been thinking about conversing with him ever since our last interrupted chat in the bathroom yesterday. The reason why I was so edgy was unknown to me. He wasn’t an enemy, I was sure of that. In fact something was awfully familiar about him. He seemed like someone who would know answers about the white crescent mark I was on my chest. He said I wasn’t someone ordinary. What am I? Ah. It is exactly why I am being edgy. The horror of finding out who I am. Asher had gone out to patrol the borders. Everyone was busy after the recent attack. On guard! We had suffered a lot of casualties, many lives were lost and not just of our pack army, many people of the settlement also died, women and children. It was devastating to have witnessed them getting murdered in front of my very own eyes. I shook my thoughts and took a deep breath. As soon as I imagined those purple enigmatic eyes, I fel

Cold wind greeted my face as I ran in the white forest. It was freezing but I was only dressed in a white long frock, my hair hung loose over my shoulders. I wasn’t cold though, I was all warmed up. I knew that warmth. That emotion! Oh I knew it all too well. I was in heat. Turning around, my eyes searched the area hoping to find him but he was nowhere. With a rapid heartbeat I pressed my back against a tree and took slow breaths to relieve myself from my tortuous pain. I closed my eyes to think of something, anything that would get my mind off him. “Trying to hide from me?” his voice caught me off guard, my eyes sapped open. He was standing in front of me, amazement dancing no his face. “It’s funny how you think it would work, especially, when you’re aroused,” he whispered in my ear. “Don’t tease me Asher,” I whined, “You always do, it’s…it’s embarrassing,” He chuckled and apologized, “I just like to see you blush,” He started kissing me, his hands roaming over my body.

Derek’s POV: She lay beside me as her sleek arms wrapped around my naked chest. Both of us enveloped in our chain of thoughts lay still after hours of love making. “I don’t understand how father can even think that the Werewolf King will agree to marry me. Especially when he’s found his mate,” We have our ways and she knows it but it was pointless to answer so I stayed quiet. She did have a point. Hypothetically, even if he did agree, their marriage would be the definition of a failure. It was one story if they fell in love and married and blah blah but forcing them into marriage was plain out stupid. Does the King have something else in mind that he isn’t telling me? Is he plotting something behind my back? “He’ll be a prisoner here Lisa. He would be under your control completely. Use him…for whatever needs you have. I heard wolves are some hot creatures to have sex with,” I snuggled in her neck. She hummed and chuckled. “Heard or experienced?” she looked at me questioningly, “

Asher’s POV:Shutting the bedroom door, I stood outside for a minute to calm my crazy heartbeat. It’s funny how the mate bond can make you act. We were in the middle of a crisis, attacked by the Vampires, Aurelia was almost abducted by Derek, lots of my people were killed, brutally, we just got to know that Sabine has wolfsbane running in her blood, Jacob almost died. It’s a disaster!But I’m here. Standing outside my own room, battling my desires, my lust and my wolf so that I don’t take my mates honor when she’s in a drugged state.She is in her senses, Asher. Axel argued and I rolled my eyes.Stop being selfish Axel, she has been drugged. She may be in her senses but her body is reacting because of the substance that’s in her body. I’ll mate with her when she tells me, when she’s ready…and not given some sex drug. Pushing myself away I walked a

“Kill him!”“What? NO!” I tried to push past him but he grabbed my waist and pressed himself against me making me gasp. What the fuck? I almost moaned?!?!“Don’t worry, darling, while they dispose of him, I’ll give you the honor of feeling pure bliss,” he smiled.From behind him, I saw Jarvis making a run at him but before he could take even a leap, he was caught by three vampires, one landed on him gripping his neck into a fierce grip; one stood in front of him, hands on her hips as the third one bit his arm. Jarvis let out a howl, he was in pain. He was in so much pain and I didn’t realize I was shedding tears. “Please stop,” I begged Derek, I begged him like the weak pathetic and helpless human I am.“Shh,” he grabbed my face, cupping my cheeks and cooed as if I were a baby, “Don’t look at him, focus on me,”“Why are you doing this?” I mat

“Calm down Aurelia,” it said again. I shrieked, nearly tripping over the coffee table. Turning my head around, I stood frozen to the ground as I watched the purple eyes staring right back at me from the mirror. With a quick twist I looked behind me only to see nothing but when I saw back in the mirror they were still there. That tall lean man with a black hood hiding his face, nothing but the dark glow of his purple eyes was visible, a purplish black cloak wrapped around his body as he held onto a wooden stick, a purple gem placed at its head. A dark powerful aura surrounded him, something about him was sinister and that is why I always felt afraid when his eyes were on me. “What, what do you want from me?” my voice shook. “I want you to not be afraid,” he instructed and I took a big gulp. “Who are you?” I asked again. “I’m not here to hurt you Aurelia,” he assured. “How do you know me?” I asked hoping he might respond with a clear answer. A smile, a faint smile spread through h
