2024-10-29 19:42:56My heart gripped tightly, and I let out a silent gasp the minute I came out of my trance. Tears formed within my eyes from the pain, and I soothingly patted my heart as the pain went on for a while, and at the same time, I tried not to let out a sound so as not to call the attention of my mate.
It's been ten years since I woke up from my comma, and I've been treated by my mate and everyone like a fragile egg that would break if held tightly.
I must not let out a sign of pain, or they would all rush and hover over me. It was tiring to talk the least, much less to persuade them every time I was okay.
Making it the reason I tried so much not to let out a sound as I fought the pain and tears that threatened to come out of my eyes.
Only Goddess knows what they would do if they should know about my dreams and the pains I get from them. But in the first place, I am still trying to figure out how to relate it to them.
No idea how I should inform them that THE WAR WAS YET TO BE OVER.
That what we had experienced was the TIP OF THE ICEBERG

The silver wolf: iceberg The spy
"Kill her!" "Kill her!" "Kill her!" Those were the words chanted by the people present at the trial ground. They chanted it repeatedly, loudly, angrily as though they would not be heard clearly if they didn't. As though they would not be heard by their King, who was seated on his high throne, seething with a hardly-controlled angry aura. Whereas the council of Alphas and elders seated below his throne at both sides, the Alphas on the right and the Elders on the left looked up to the King in fearful anticipation of what the King, who had his eyes trained on the girl bound in chains at the centre of the courtroom, would do. “Pl…please… Please…” The chained girl pleaded. She was covered from head to toe in bruises and could barely stand on her two feet, much less talk properly. "Pl…please, my king," She pleaded crookedly before coughing blood out violently from her mouth. "Please… I'm no spy…It is all a lie," She cried out, struggling against the chains that bound her hands and
The silver wolf: iceberg The outburst
On hearing the King's words, the Elder realised his mistake and immediately went to his knees in regret."Your Majesty, I'm sorry… I beg for your mercy… I don't know what made me think I can talk in such a manner." The Elder said hurriedly with his head bowed to the floor, scared that the King would lash out at and devour him on the spot.The King eyed him angrily before diverting his gaze away from him before he lost control and pounced on him."Get the f**k out of my sight," He said irritatingly."Yes… yes… my King. Thank you for your kind gesture, my king" The Elder scrambled to his feet and moved away from the King's sight to the back of the crowd.As he found a perfect place to stay, a sinister smile crossed his face briefly before it was wiped off the next minute as though it was never there before.He would have left out of anger and humiliation, but he decided to stay behind to see what would become of the girl.To him, it would be best if she was sentenced to death because it
The silver wolf: iceberg The Prince's mate
The King was the most resilient among them all, as he maintained his calm and gait attitude throughout the Prince’s words. The only time he reacted was when the Prince cut him off initially.He silently watched and listened as the Prince talked without telling him to stop.However, as the Prince kept talking, he began questioning the reason behind his action.He knows his son too well to know that he would not do something of this nature publicly if it were not of great importance.When the Prince finished talking, salience befell the entire court as everyone waited in great anticipation for the King’s reaction.The silence elongated for a few minutes before the King finally cleared his throat, thereby breaking the silence.Everyone inhaled sharply as they watched the King slowly stand up from his throne and walk with unbothered steps toward the Prince.Two things crossed their mind at that moment.The first was…Oh no, the Prince is in trouble.He had succeeded in getting the King an
The silver wolf: iceberg Made as a scapegoat
Hearing that, Elder Varlam fell on his knees and quickly said, “No…no, Your Majesty, I… I wouldn’t dare to… I would…”The King cut him off again, “You would, what?”The King crouched before him to be on the same level as the Elder before grabbing his chin between his fingers. “Seems I’ve been quite lenient with how you seem gutsy in confronting me with your words. Your words show that you are not satisfied with how I rule my Kingdom, and you have your opinion on how it should be done.” As the King spoke, his grip on Elder Varlam’s chin tightened.“No… no, your majesty, that’s not what I… I never intend….”“It seems quite well that that was your intention. If not, you would not have returned to show your face before me after I told you to get the f*ck out of my sight. It seems you are eager to know what I am capable of doing to those that go against me. I can do so by starting with you. What do you say?”“Y…your Majesty, I…I beg your pardon if I’ve offended you w…with my words and acti
The silver wolf: iceberg Eliminate her
“I’ve known for a while now. Almost immediately after, she was captured and mistaken as a thief.” The Prince answered reluctantly, understanding what the King meant by his question, saying, Hearing his son’s reply, the King came to a halt and looked at him with a questioning gaze, asking, “Then why didn’t you mention it before now? Why did you keep it to yourself? Why did it take you so long to come out with it since you found out that early? Are you ashamed of a human as your mate? Is that why you didn’t say anything? If so, your mother and I raised you better than that.” The King bombarded him with question after the other.“No, Father, I’m not ashamed of her being my mate.” He heaved out a frustrated sigh and rubbed his face with both hands before continuing, “At first, the signs and bond weren’t vital enough for me to confirm it, and it took me a few weeks of several encounters to be sure. When I was certain of it and was on my way to locate her, I saw her being forced by someon
The silver wolf: iceberg Regrets
DivyaFear, anticipation, hope, fear again, sadness, rejection, regret, anxiety, apprehension, and several others were what Divya repeatedly felt as the guards took her back to the dungeon cell that she was in before she was summoned to the court before the King.The cell was her nightmare because, in there, she had been tortured to the core with various excruciating tools that she had ever seen.Hence, the thought of the guards using those tools on her again made her shiver in fear as they walked the corridor leading to her cell.Though she was just an omega from one of the poorest packs in the Kingdom, she had never seen torturous instruments like those used on her. Despite her being an omega, she had never imagined she would end up being in her current situation.Well… that was before she was approached, forced, and sent to work in the Palace as a spy.After she entered the Palace and saw how lovely and kind they were towards each other and to her, guilt, regret, and fear were at t
The silver wolf: iceberg Attacked
As she reminisced in pain about her life, hurried footsteps drew her attention back to the present. Scared, she curled, drew closer to the shadows of the walls, and tried to make herself as invisible as possible. However, pain ignited all over her body as she did so, making her let out a strangled whimper. Her body was completely bruised and was not healing as it should have since she was a werewolf, but that wasn’t a surprise for her since she was a late bloomer and had yet to shift. But she wasn’t sure if truly she was a late bloomer or she was just unfortunate not to have a wolf. Though her family tried to hide it in their pack that she was yet to shift, one way or the other, it got out, which was also one of the reasons they were treated harsher than they were supposed to be treated. But she was already used to it. Shaking her head, she brushed aside her thoughts and tried to listen to what was happening around her while anxiously awaiting what was coming next. However, afte

Dante POVI was furious, ranging in uncontrollable anger the moment I stepped into the dungeon and smelt her blood in the air.Before I knew it, my Lycan had taken control from me and dashed towards the person who had attacked her and tore him into pieces without care.Just a minute later, and it would have been too late.Too late to save her.Shredding him had no effect in calming my Lycan, and as I was about to go berserker and look for my next victim, the sight of my mate falling backward, thereby bringing me out of my raging state.I rushed toward her before she could hit her head on the floor and caught her in my arms.Seeing as she was unconscious and hardly breathing, fear gripped my heart, and I called out for someone to call the doctor without having it in my that I could contact him through mind link, which was faster.However, that didn't cross my mind. I was focused on her breathing and hoped she survived as I hurriedly carried her out of the dungeon and straight to my cha

The silver wolf: iceberg apart from being a hybrid of my kind, you are of a special breed, higher than most Changelings
"Yes, we are changelings. We can change our appearance at will, blending seamlessly into any environment or society. We are a rare breed, feared and misunderstood by many. But to those who truly know us, we are loyal and protective friends."Hmm, loyal and protective indeed.With a sly smile, he added. "For thousands of years, we have stayed hidden, isolated ourselves from the rest of the world, until recently. There are those who no longer like the way we keep to ourselves and want to let the world know of our existence. It's probably one of them that you encountered before me and that tried to harm you. The reason behind that attack is unknown to us, but rest assured, I will protect you from anyone who tries to harm you and also find out who has done such a thing and the reason behind it. I will get to the bottom of it. But for now, this is all I can tell you. I will leave the rest to your father to explain to you when he comes to see you."The whole information about their being wa

"What do you mean by that?" I was confused by his words.Why is it his duty to protect me?"Protecting you is my sole purpose," the mysterious figure replied with a calm and reassuring smile. "I was privileged to be appointed by your father to protect you at all costs."Perplexed, I repeated questioningly, "My father?" I wasn't sure if I heard him correctly.Growing up, all I heard about him was that he was a beast that had forced himself on my mother and had his way with her. I never imagined that, apart from hearing about my father in the same sentence as a monster, I would hear about him in a different sentence entirely different from the ones I had grown up with. I had no idea if he was even dead or alive, or who he was or even looked like. There was nothing to tell me anything about him. The word father to me was more like a passing word that was used to insult me when needed."Yes, your father. He is very much alive, and he sent me to look for you and protect you as soon as he go
The silver wolf: iceberg Agatha was a spy
I quickly walked toward the door and hoped it wasn't locked, but my hope was dampened when I tried the handle and found it wouldn't budge. I became more anxious as I realized that escaping was going to be much more difficult than I had anticipated.What to do?What to do?I searched around the room to see if there was another way out.The window.I quickly darted toward it and checked if it was unlocked.To my joy, it was.However, that joy was short-lived because, as soon as I pushed it open, I realized that it was way high above the ground, and attempting to climb out would be extremely dangerous.To be precise, the room I was placed in was at the top of a tall tower. I was trapped.No wonder they hadn't bothered sealing the window shut. It was impossible to escape.Feeling extreme despair, I collapsed onto the cold stone floor and held my head with both hands. A sense of hopelessness washed over me as I realized there was no way out.I stayed that way for a while, only to hear a wiz
The silver wolf: iceberg Kidnapped
"Hehe, I didn't think it would be this easy after everything that had happened so far," another male voice said."Of course it is. That was why I told you guys to let me do it since no one would suspect me and I have the closest access to her." I heard Agatha's voice say, surprising me. I didn't expect her to be involved in this. I never for once thought she was involved in the whole thing."Yeah, let's get out of here before they notice her absence and come searching for her," the first male said."As if they would. No one cares about her that much, especially not her so called mate." With a smirk laced to his voice, the second male replied."Let's just get out of here before they notice her absence for too long. "Before they realize she's missing and start looking for her," another voice said, and I felt my body being lifted and moved right before I completely lost consciousness.Prince Dante's POVI know I've not been the best mate to her, but I needed to keep my distance from her
The silver wolf: iceberg finally, we got hold of her!
By the time I finished taking my shower and came out of the bathroom, the prince had gone, with no sign of him ever being there in the first place. I couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment and longing. I had thought that since he had taken the time to come to the room today, we would have had a chance to finally talk and get to know each other better. But now, it seemed like that opportunity had slipped away.Talk of someone who goes and comes as he wishes, it was clear that he had no intention of working on our mate bond—at least not now.It was quite disappointing, but who was I to blame if not me? I could understand his unwillingness to complete the mating bond between us.After all, I was the one who worked as a spy for the enemy and is still being suspected of working for the enemy, no matter how subtle they seem not to show their suspicions towards me.I let out a deep breath and went about doing my usual routine for the day.By evening, the dress finally came from the
The silver wolf: iceberg a feeling that something bad would happen
On getting to the prince's private quarters, I was extremely tired and fell asleep immediately.However, I was woken up by a loud noise in the middle of the night and jolted up from the bed, frightened. Initially, I thought it was the prince who had entered the room, but to my surprise, it was a shadow hidden in the darkness of the room that sent chills down my spine."W…who is there?" I called as I quickly reached out to switch on the table lamb that was placed beside me on the bedside table. However, when the light illuminated the room, there was no one there. Instead, only a cold, empty silence filled the air.But I could not be wrong about what I had seen. I was certain that I saw a shadow in the corner of the room right before I turned on the light, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that someone or something was watching me. But since I didn't see anything, I tried to put the unease feelings aside and went back to sleep. But the lingering sense of unease stayed with me through
The silver wolf: iceberg It's been utterly peaceful for the past few months.
The days stretched into weeks, and the weeks turned into months, and during those periods, with the help of Princess Audree, I had been able to improve my skills and relationships with a small portion of the pack members, but there were still others that remained distant and untrusting. However, I decided to ignore them and keep on training so as to be able to protect myself and prove my worth as a member of the pack. Oh, and yes, as you've probably guessed, Princess Audree was the person the Prince spoke to to help me train, which so far has been great. "Nice Divya, you are doing an excellent job. If you keep up with this pace, you will in no time be able to defend yourself against my attacks when we train. And that will make you a formidable opponent," Princess Audree said to me with a proud smile on her face after one of our evening sessions. I smiled gratefully in return, feeling a renewed sense of determination to continue improving, as I knew I still had a long way to go. But
The silver wolf: iceberg you need guidance and mentorship to truly succeed.
I was filled with confusion due to his response, and I wondered why he had brought me here and what his intentions were. I didn't know if I should get up and leave or wait for him to come out of the room and ask for an explanation or something. However, I was too scared to ask for fear of his reaction; hence, I decided to leave the room before he walked out of the room. However, as I stood up and started towards the door, he suddenly emerged from the room, catching me off guard. I froze in place, unsure of what to do next as he looked directly at me. "What do you think you're doing?" he demanded, his eyes gauging me. "I…I…I thought…I" I stammered, unable to find the right words to explain myself. "I thought to go to my room so as to give you some privacy," I finally managed to say, hoping he would understand. He stared at me for a while before finally breaking into a smirk and saying, "Well, aren't you the considerate one? Well, sorry, but you will be staying in my chambers from
The silver wolf: iceberg touched by her genuine care
Everyone bowed at her appearance while the questions hung in the air, demanding answers. The tension in the room grew thicker with every passing moment.Prince Dante hesitated before finally responding, "I don't know, Your Majesty. I was not there when it happened, and by the time I got there, she had already been attacked with no guards in sight." He responded through clenched teeth. He turned and glared at me as I lay on the bed, receiving treatment.The intensity of his gaze made me feel uneasy and on edge; hence, I turned my head away to ignore him. After all, it could hardly be counted as me disrespecting him at this moment.The feeling of frustration was evidenced by his countenance and my obvious dismissal of his gaze, but he could do nothing about it."I will get to the bottom of it, Mother. Don't worry," he said, determination in his voice."Better do that. It would not be good for us if your mate kept getting attacked without proper protection and support," his mother replie
