Chapter 31: CarpetI cough when I shake off the fabrics that are covering the couches. It is so full of dust that it seems like years have passed since it has been clean.It is afternoon and a while ago, someone came here to inform Gideon about something. I didn't get the chance to know what it was all about since they went out to talk and after that Gideon said that he needed to leave as there is an important thing he needed to do and I just said that it was okay. I didn't ask what it was all about because it seems like it was a confidential and I dont have the right to interfere in his works as the future Alpha.I was wondering why Gideon Morris is known as a ruthless leader, he is so kind to me and to his people and I don't think he deserves that title. I heard it when I came here, outside the forest, when I am on my journey That time, I thought I was lost. Thankfully there are residents that I will pass through so I asked them about the forest where the werewolves are residing, th
Chapter 32: FightI woke up from the noise that was coming from outside. I looked out the window and there I found a commotion, something is happening that's why I decided to come out.I hurriedly came down from the stairs as I looked outside. I peeked from the inside and there I saw Gideon in the middle of the crowds, the people looked exasperated as they cried kneeling in front of Gideon. I look at Gideon and he is looking at his people worriedly as he doesn't know what to do. What happened?“Please, my Lord. Help us!”The woman in the middle age held Gideons feet, still crying.“He didn't came back after he talk to you, my Lord”“Maybe something happened to him!”“It must be the Cravens!”The others commented, I saw Gideon hold his forehead as he sat down helping the woman to stand up. The Cravens?“I promise that I will help you, we will find him, maam”, Gideon said to the woman sincerely. It seems like someone is missing. Being an Alpha may be so hard, I didn't know that this kin
Chapter 33: MaskI smiled as I looked around the mansion. The ambiance has changed into a good one. I am hoping that when I come back, it will be the same. I looked in front of me when I saw Gideon, he pulled the bag in my hands as he held my hands using his other hands.“I will accompany you until you reach the Cravens manor”, he informed me. I wanted to decline his offer after he said those words but he already started walking while pulling my right hand.We came out from the mansion but I stopped when I saw Adlai together with an old man.“ We need you to confirm something, someone died inside the well”, I got nervous when Adlai said those words. Gideon looked at me and worried is plastered to his face.I smiled at him because his people need him, he should prioritize them more than me.“I can take care of myself. Your people need you”, I said as I tried pulling my bags in his hands.“But it was dangerous, Calliope”, he said looking so anxious.“ I will drop her off”, I looked at
Chapter 34: Secrets I was trying to keep my mind at peace while riding the horse. Just know, everything is sinking into my mind. A while ago, the woman called my name even though I didn't even introduce myself to her, does that mean she knew me? I am sure that she knows who I am and there is a big possibility that I know her too. I looked above and I just wanted to close my eyes when the sunlight greeted my face. I hit the horse so that I could get back inside Cravens manor as much as possible. I didn't know that I would come back this early. I just wanted to leave everyone and live on my own as the problem of danger keeps on approaching me. I was so nervous when I saw the glimpse of the manor. I am wearing the cloak that I requested from Miss Penelope before. I saw the knights guarding the gate of the Cravens manor as they looked so attentive. I didn't bother to stop as I just passed through them. I saw them being alarmed. That's why I picked the piece of paper in my pocket that
Chapter 35: Cold “How many times do I have to tell you that I am seriously, super duper okay, Elon. Okay?”, I said to Elon. I am starting to get annoyed by him. He came—Oh scratch that, they came here to ask me if I am okay and this the nth time he asked me the same questions. They are wearing their armor as they are ready to launch an attack into the forest but thankfully, someone informed them that I am already here. Elon said that Master Aeneas told them to be ready as per the council requested. I wanna talk to Elon privately since he is the only person whom I told that I will stay in the werewolves' lair because I think that that is the right thing to do. I wanna asked him what happened here while I am inside the forest. I look around as if I don't know what to do. I don't know how the knights fit inside of my room. If you will calculate it, they are almost twenty and as I was saying, they are still wearing their full armor. How the hell can they breathe in the small–well it w
Chapter 36: Hidden DoorI decided to go back to my room after what happened between Aziel and I. Well nothing really happened since he chose to ignore me. And I also can't take it anymore, my head is aching and I don't think I can go to the maidens penthouse to ask Miss Penelope if she has something for my cold. I hope this pain could fade in just a rest.I started to walk again, backing to where I came from when my head started spinning. Thankfully I have gotten to hold onto the table that is placed against the wall in the hallway. I held on to the corner of the table tightly as I held my forehead.The vase on the top of the table fell thats why I quickly arranged it to the way it used to be before falling down onto the floor. That made me nervous!But I was surprised when the wall beside the table opened. My eyes literally wide open while looking at the wall moving. It was like a secret door. Is this another problem? But dude, I want to know what is inside of this hidden door!I l
Chapter 37: Daunted“Calliope?”, I was stunned when I heard her voice as my eyes became widened while I was staring at this man. He just raised one of his eyebrows, still breathing hard.“What are you doing here?”She asked why I slowly turned my head to where she was as I wave my hands a little. She is looking at me confused, that's why I answered her.“He–Hello, Miss Zipporah”, I said as I smiled to her forcely and I dont know how my face turned out when I did that. “How did you find this place?”, she asked again as I was so nervous when I noticed the people in her back. It is the council and they are all wearing their hoods.I cannot see their faces as they where bowing a little and added to that, they are all staying in the darkness, porbably they dont want me to identify themselves. No human nor other creatures have seen their faces before, except for Zipporah, I think it is because she isn't scared by the people whom who can judge her after their wrong judgment. What would you e
Chapter 38: PorridgeI came back to my room slowly thinking about my life. I am feeling bad about this cold as I am starting to sniff. I walk fastly as I can so I can rest. I became breathless when I reach my room. I open the door as I quickly lie on my bed. I pulled the blanket to cover my body. I close my eyes and I dont know when did I sleep.I opened my eyes as I heard a knock on my door. I triend to sit down but all over my body is aching. The door opened and it was Miss Penelope, she was holding a tray of foods as usual and when she got to see my state her facial expression change into a worried one.“Calliope”, she called my name before putting the tray of food on the the top of the table.She holds my forehead and neck as she looks at me anxiously, “You are sick, Calliope. I will go get some medicine for you, wait for me okay?”, she said and I nodded in return. She came out of the room and I lay on my bed again trying to close my eyes as I was dizzy.I sniff for a thousand ti
Chapter 106: EndCalliope's Point of ViewFive years have passed and I am living to the fullest.“Lo—Love!”I called Gideons attention while we were eating our breakfast. My tummy started to hurt and I couldn't stop myself but to moan in pain. “Calliope?! What—Don't tell me?! Shit! Wait, hold on huh?!”, he said as he stood up and he helped me hold my hand to support me from standing. He started panicking when my water broke and he started calling the nights and his Beta, Adlai. She accepted the position and I am glad she did.“Adlai!”Gideon said and he motioned one of our maids to help me. “What? It's so early and yet you are shouting? —”, Adlai stopped when she saw my condition. “Oh My God, Oh My God! Oh my Goddd!”, she said as she ran towards us.“What to do?”I shake my head when they simultaneously ask each other. “What is happening?!”Adlai said and she dont know what to do, these two, really.“Damn it, Adlai! Calliope is going to give birth to my son! Do something!”, he said a
Chapter 105: Victory“You can't do anything now, Calliope. We are already tied and you already accepted me”, he said and my eyebrow automatically raised. But deep inside, I am so happy that I cannot express my feelings. All I know is I am starting to realize who he was in my life. So this is what they were saying of having a mate. Having a mate means you have someone to share everything with. And I remember I felt about Aziel, meeting this guy and knowing that he was my mate, my feelings automatically faded. No, I mean, that immediately faded was so overreacting, Gideon was so overwhelming that it buried my feelings towards Aziel. Maybe because I already accept that Aziel will never be mine but there is still a part of me that wants to be his girl.And Gideon? I want to be with him for the rest of my life. I dont know if this is how mates works cause what I am feeling right now seems to be so fast.“Sir—”, he cut me off by putting his index fingers in my lips to stop me from talkin
Chapter 104: ImpactI slowly open my eyes but because of blurry vision, I choose to close it again, tightly.“I'm glad you are already awake”, someone spoke from beside me and it was Caitronia. I decided to sit down when I remembered what just happened, “E–Elon, where's Elon?”I asked her and I started to look around to see where he was.“You have to rest, Calliope. Elon is fine”, she informed me and I breathed a sigh of relief.“Sandaya? Where is Sandaya? What happened to her?”I asked her the following questions and she gave me a small smile. I looked behind her and there I saw Elon lying on the ground. That's why I stood up.“Where are you going, you should rest until you fully recover, Calliope”, she said and then she tried to hold me by holding my arm. “I'm fine, Caitriona”, I picked the cloaks that I was using and I walked slowly to Elon, I covered him using the cloak like it was a blanket.I look at him and I smile, thank God he was okay. I am really worried. “The Alpha takes
Chapter 103: TruthShiloh's Point of View“Who–Who did this to them!”I ask Gideon after I saw my brother and sister almost dying, no, not an almost, they are dying for Pete's sake!“Calm down, Shiloh”, Ahira said behind my back as she tried to tap me on my shoulders. “How can I if my family is in this state?”I asked her, confused but she just looked at me before he looked at Gideon who was trying to help my sisters. Ahira starts to move when she notices that my sister and Herod need medical attention as soon as possible, she puts her hands on her pocket and she picks the gun we use to inform the others. She put the blue gas inside the gun and after that, she pointed the gun to the sky and after she pulled the trigger, the blue smoke surrounded the area. It is mainly used to get the attention of the medical team for situations like this.“I did that to Aziel”, Gideon uttered that made me stop from moving.“What?”I ask to confirm what I have just heard. “I did that to Aziel”, he sai
Chapter 102: RemorseGideon’s Point of ViewI transformed into a human after I saw where the black smoke was coming, I saw Zipporah, together with Herod who was lying on the ground, breathless. I instantly got worried because of their state, lots of blood that is coming off from their body has stained the ground. I felt dejected when I noticed that they were holding hands. I hold their hands to feel their pulse and I breathe hard when I feel their pulse but it is weak and if no one will give medical attention to them, they might die, no, they will die.“Long time no see”, I heard someone talk near the trees. It was him.“Let's put an end to this”, I answered him with confidence. I tightened my hold to both of them as it was like I was getting strength from them.“I'm sorry, I am too late”, I uttered as I looked at their faces and even though they were dying? They look so at peace, they look so solemn.“Two years have passed. And you don't change anything”, he said after he stood up.
Chapter 101: Tied and TangledAziel's Point of ViewFlashback“No! I am the reason why our father and mother are dead!”Shiloh kept on shouting those words while he was crying. Yeah, you should know that it was your fault! Yes, you are the real reason why I don't have my parents right now!I wanted to say these words to his face but I decided to keep it to myself. I was crying near the gate while Zipporah was calming down Shiloh. I looked at Zipporah and it looked like she was stopping herself from crying. Why would she try to stop it when it is just normal to cry after your parents die? The way she acts right now is the real definition of weak.“No, Shiloh. Listen to me”, I heard Zipporah tried to talk to Shiloh as she kept on tapping his back gently like a kid. Tsk, we are old enough to hold our emotions. If he wants to blame himself then let him be, after all, it was the truth.“What happened is just an accident. No one wants that to happen and you have nothing to do with it”, Zipp
Chapter 100: KissShiloh’s Point Of ViewAhira was fighting with Ria while I was fighting this bastard, the traitor one. 'Caden”, I called him out and he just looked at me like he didn't care. You must be careful because your life is at stake here.“If you think you can defeat then you are being delirious”, I said as I gave him a smirk. “Shiloh”, he called me the same tone I made when I called his name. He really wants to get on my nerves huh?“You are not strong enough”, he said before he pointed his gun towards my direction.“The strong do not have its weakness, and you have”, he said and he pulled the trigger but because of my ability, I avoided the bullet by turning my head sideways.“That's it?”I ask him teasingly and he just looks at me with anger. He pulled the trigger twice and immediately avoided it using my two arrows. I released it the same time he let out his bullets. I chuckled and that made him frown, “This is gonna be easy”, I said friskily.“Don't be so arrogant, Sh
Chapter 99: Die For YouZipporah’s Point of View“You should know your place, Zipporah”, Aziel retorted and everything went past when Herod and I both attacked each other. I groaned in pain when I gots cuts from his swords.But I don't have any time to complain. Shit! This is what I am saying! I might hurt this guy for pete's sake!“I–Im sorry”, he uttered and I gave him a smile as I nodded to say that it was okay.“Oops, sorry”, I playfully said when he got stabbed by me in his arm and he just chuckled.We may look so exuberant but I know that deep inside, we are both scared and nervous at the same time. “You guys are taking me so lightly huh?”Aziel asked us as he throwed his dagger between us and I exerted my strength so that I could avoid it and Herod did the same.“Now”, Aziel whispered but since we are the only three who have been left in this area because the others have already evacuated, we can hear that properly.This time, he looked so serious that I think he was ready to k
Chapter 98: EyesZipporah's Point of View“Damn you Aziel!”, I shouted when he tried to throw his daggers at me.“My pleasure”, he said sarcastically while bowing down like a royal.“Oh! I have an idea!”, he said and the way he smirks, I already knew that I wouldn't like it.“It's boring since all you have to do is to defend yourself, Zipporah. What if…You tried to attack Herod?”, he suggested it was just a simple opinion he got there.Herod is looking at me with his eyes pleading, he didn't stop from rAziel is controlling him, tackling me and breaking me.“Kill me, Zipporah”“I know you can do it”“You are strong”“It will be easy if you won't put limit to your actions”He kept on saying those words while holding a sword, I don't know where did he get that but Aziel is controlling him that is out of his will so tell me? How could I hurt him when he wasn't doing anything?“Zipporah”, Aziel asked me and that is the most idiotic thing that I have done, the biggest mistake that I have ma
