Unknown Pov. Chimere climbed down from the car ready for another day of learning. Like always her best friend was there eagerly waiting on her to start the day's gossip and gist. Unlike Katleen who was very chatty and enjoyed preying on the privacy of others, Chimere preferred a calm environment. “I heard the football team has a new player, and everyone says he is so handsome. Oh.. what will I do to have a guy like him be my boyfriend” Katleen laments bitterly. Chimere turned to her friend with a worried look. “We are only 14 Kat. why are you so desperate for a boyfriend when you will get to have tons of them when you're much older?” Katleen turned to her friend angrily. “It's safe for you to say because you have Carl. he likes you and I see the way you look at him so stop with the pretense” Chimere did not know if she should laugh or cry. Carl was indeed a good guy, very accommodating and cute too but she knew better. “I do not come from around this area. I may not be the one t
Unknown Pov. Mckenny has been so restless since he dropped Chimere at school which was a rather weird feeling to suddenly take over him. Chimere was no weak child and knew just how to protect herself. He shrugs the feelings going about his day as always but deep within it keeps digging and gains even more ground as time goes by. Seranda walks into the office, fear written all over her face as she drops a couple of files on the table. “I don't have a good feeling about Chimere,” she said. Mckenny looks up to her not sure of how he would explain the strange feeling evolving within him. For the very first time in years, he was dumbfounded and not sure of what to do. It felt like something within him was coming to life yet he could not place his head around it. “I feel hot... I feel like my body is breaking slowly from within” he voiced out staring at the woman before him. For some reasons best unknown to him he felt so safe in her presence, with all the staff he has worked with for
Unknown pov. Mckenny held his daughter in his arms and quickly carried her out of the school into the car. “How long do you think she can last?” he asked Seranda who sat in the back with their daughter. “I don't know, it may come within a couple of minutes or an hour at most,” she says, holding on to Chimere who continues to scream in pain and agony. “First shifts are painful but why is hers taking so long and even more painful than usual” Mckenny asked. Seranda just shrugs not knowing what to do. She was a quick shifter and so was Mckenny, their daughter was the first of her kind and every other thing would be termed a first time happening. “Come on, let's go” he hits the gas, driving as fast as he goes. The ride back home which usually lasted for only 10 minutes took 5. They arrived at the mansion and quickly carried Chimere to her room. Lock the doors and get Anan, he should have something that can help” Mckenny instructed and Seranda went on her way. Anan was not in his ro
Unknown Pov. Gregory has been so busy trying to organize a few sections of the land which was most affected by the tyranny of Ciranda. After his recent encounter with Elder Morgan, both parties have not seen eye to eye on issues. While Gregory has been more busy tending to the lands, Elder Morgan has been rather occupied in turning the people against him. It was a quiet morning and Greg frowned before dragging himself off the bed. He had barely gotten enough sleep from working all night. “Greg…Greg” a voice called out to him fiercely through the hallway. Gregory turns to the door as it bangs open and the culprit walks in. Standing before him was none other than his little sister. Marriam has not forgiven him for his past deeds even after he has proven beyond a reasonable doubt to have turned a new lead. “Mariam” he called out, covering himself up with the bathrobe. “They are out to get you… they want you dead” she stated panicking. Gregory quickly walks over to her, taking her
Unknown Pov. Dark clouds hover over the dark mountains as lightning strikes repeatedly to lighten the dark foggy cloud. “I thought we warned you not to come here again,?” a voice echoes but no sound follows. “I should be allowed. I am one of you. Why can't you see reasons with me?” Sophia roared angrily through the darkness barely seeing the path ahead. With the absence of the creature of the night, the bridge was secure and safe for outsiders, but entering the castle was another mission. “Your path and ours do not align well Sophia… Go back and seek the help of your kind; we help no enemy of ours” Anastasia says walking out of the castle in a flourishing red dress creeping on the floor. The fog gradually cleared and everywhere became visible. Sophia stared at the three witches, inwardly wishing she could strangle them to death. Not only has she been trying to get their attention for the past years, but their constant refusal has become personal to her. “When he came, you took
Unknown Pov. It's been two days since the last incidents at the Golden Mansion and everyone has been exceptionally quiet and gloomy. It's morning and the servants went around doing their daily chores. Seranda slams the door of her bedroom behind her fully ready for work. She walks out of the mansion just in time to meet with Mckenny who appears to have been waiting for her. “Good morning” she greeted climbing onto her seat and putting on the safety belt. “Hello Mommy” a charming voice greeted from the back starling Seranda who turned with a matter of urgency. “Chi..” she calls, staring at her daughter who looks rather too energetic than she had expected. “Baby.. you know you can stay home and rest if you want. I can stay with you and do anything you want us to do” Seranda stares at Mckenny hoping he backs her up but he keeps his head ahead and does not interfere in her conversation. “No Mommy… I want to go to the office with you and Daddy. We don't have so much time to spend he
Unknown pov. Seranda stares out at the address Laurana sent her for the tenth time. While she is sure she has enough to live a comfortable life, she needs to know why the address leads them to a rather shady neighborhood. She quickly drove the car to the front of the apartment. Embracing herself for whatever may come after, she grabs Chimere from the backseat, holding on as tight as she can. “Is Aunt Laurana here?” Chimere asks as they ring the bell. “I hope so baby… I do hope she is here and will come back with us” The door soon opens and a smiling Laurana reaches out to Chimere scooping her into her arms. “Oh, my baby…you've grown so much and are even more beautiful than the last time we met” Chimere giggles holding tight. “I've missed you so much Mother Laurana. Will you be going back with us? Mommy says she had no idea if you would be coming when I asked her” Seranda locked the door behind her while Chimere bombarded her laurana with even more questions. “She’s grown so muc
Unknown Pov. The breaking of dawn brought about a new beginning in the lives of not only the inhabitants of the Central Crown but also of the ruling family. Emery stretched out walking over to the garden. Ever since the departure of Seranda and her brother, she had taken more liking to growing beautiful flowers. Emery silently went about watering the flowers and enjoying the view before her. Time seems to be the only change they all have experienced through the years. She now had a beautiful daughter who looked so much like her dad, Iris was not only a healing spot for her but the reason she had to move on every day. “Luna…” a maid called from behind. Emery turns to her with a cheerful smile. It's been nine years and every time they called her Luna she has tried correcting them to no avail. “What's wrong?” she asked the omega who had her head on the ground. “Princess Iris has refused to allow us to gain access to her chambers” Emery stares at the maid not sure if she should la
Unknown Pov. It's been a week since the massive death that swept across the land of Limfieya. Friends and loved ones came from far and near to mourn with them, but like everything, it came to an end. Chimere sits in the prince’s room opposite hers gently rocking the baby to sleep. He has been nothing but a good boy. She felt he understood the situation. Chimere sings for him as he drifts off to sleep. Evera, the newly appointed lady in waiting for Chimere and caretaker of the baby walks in calmly trying hard not to wake the sleeping baby. “What?” Chimere asked not to take her eyes off the baby. “the elders…. they want to see you” Evera announced, squatting down and taking the baby off her mistress’s hands. “I will take care of him,” she assures Chimere, who places a soft kiss on his forehead before walking off. The castle has not been the same without everyone. the rooms were suddenly so empty for her liking, her parent's room was locked and she dared not go in. Chimere walks to
Unknown Pov. Everything they had accomplished came flashing. from the time they first met, to the times they had to stay away from each other. a sad smile crept on Seranda’s face at the thought of their daughter. Chimere will have to stay alone, she will have to move on to be the very best leader the people could ever ask for. Seranda could only watch her mate wallow in pain and heartache as his life slipped away from his grip. She painfully crawled towards him, taking his hands in hers. “I am here” was all she mouthed before another mouthful of blood came coughing its way out. her life was gradually falling away and there was nothing she could do. Laurana lay on the side of Ciranda waiting for death to come, her mate was dead and Seranda knew just how painful it felt because she was watching hers severely right before her with no words. Mckenny couldn't open his bloodshot eyes, the pain was too much to handle. every part of him was threatened like melting lava, he could feel hi
Unknown Pov. Chimere stood by the railing, her eyes not peeling off from the direction of her parents. The elders kept bringing up ideas but she could not bring herself to stay focused with them. Time was ticking rather slowly and no matter how many times she looked, the soldiers were still on standby which was a thing of relief but also the worst possible anxiety. Chimere has tried every other way to get out to the hold of the Elders to no avail. Elder Morgan was rather joyous over her decision to ride on and meet her parents but Elder Fern wasn't in support. He couldn't bring himself to watch the old heir to the throne ride on to her possible death. “We can't go after them,” elder Fern kept repeating. The castle was on lockdown. The death of his daughter had been all he needed to know what path to be on. Morgan has always been selfish and deep down he could see the friend in him was long gone and lost.“Let the princess go, her presence could change so much for us,” Elder Morga
Unknown pov. Mckenny and Greggory led the men while Seranda was stationed behind them. Mckenny couldn't afford to have his mate take the first arrow. Cirenda stood alone, waiting on them. This was weird. “Caution,” Mckenny’s voice echoes. Ciranda has always been the type to play sneaky behind their backs and he was not going to walk into a well-thought-out plan. Mckenny took the lead with Seranda while Greg waited with their men. Mckenny took his human form holding tight to the hands of his mate. “Let me talk to him... I don't know what I am hoping for but I pray to the goddess he listens” Mckenny nodded, giving her hand a little squeak. “Whatever outcome, you will always have me” The couple walks up closer to the man standing in black like a funeral processor. his eyes carried no sense of feeling, he was rather so fragile than the last time they had met, Seranda could not bring herself to not worry. Cirenda had his head on the ground casually kicking rocks like they were kids a
Unknown Pov. Laurana couldn't bring herself to sleep, not when the night was old and weary. The cold breeze blows through her skin, making her body shiver in discomfort. Tonight was different from every other night, she could feel the rumbling danger suspended on the horizon, and she could feel the pain held from within. “Can you hear me?” she asked, staring at the dazzling moon, her eyes filled with unspoken words and emotions. He was close yet so far. her hands graze over her baby bump. “I do not know what the future holds for us.. but I am certain you will live a great life and be well loved.” her silent prayers for the wellbeing of her baby and his big cousin went straight into the listening ears of the smiling moon. The first wolwl of the morning came from a distance but it did not bring peace to her soul. Laurana watched the dark give way to light on her balcony over a glass of water and some sweets. “Laura..” a voice came from outside. she could tell it was the Queen even
Unknown Pov. Laurana held on tight to her baby bump. She would rather be banished than have to tell who the father of her baby was. “I can” Laurana speaks up, her voice barely audible. Chimere could feel her pain, her fears were the same. “What right do they have to ask such questions huh? I am the mother and only I decide who gets to know about the lineage of my baby and who not to tell. don't overstep your boundary” “We do not take that away from you Laurana” Elder Morgan replied. “For the safety of the land and everyone, is it only right that you tell us who the father of your baby is? we can't have another abomination waiting to happen when it could have been avoided before birth?” Laurana couldn't hold back her laugh. her hand caressing her baby protectively. This was out of love, she would do anything to have him again and even if she is on her deathbed she would change nothing of their encounters. “an abomination?” Laurana scoffs. “My child who has not seen the world is
Unknown Pov. It's been a day since they returned on their short trip to Central Crown Pack, Chimere knocks on the door of Laurana panic written all over her face. There was not only a riot outside the castle but everyone was shouting and demanding Nana's very surprising head. Laurana sighs as the omega opens the door letting in a panicked Chimere. “Nana” her voice broke into a sob. Laurana had long expected this day would come but never had she thought it would be this soon. “come here” Laurana beacons to her which she obliged without hesitation. “Look outside” In front of the view of Laurana’s window, the crowd was ten times more massive than what she had seen. Chimere glances over to the omega and then her nana. She could not understand why Larauna was so calm despite all the odds against her. “what will happen now?” Chimere asks. “I don't know, but I am certain you will be a good big sister to someone,” Laurana smiles, placing Chimera's hand over her baby bump. Chimere could
Unknown Pov.The girls went around, taking turns helping to fill up the cars with supplies. Seranda and Emery just watched them interact without saying a word to each other. The hurt burning in Iris' eyes couldn't go unnoticed while Chimere wore a beautiful smile ready to start her day on a joyful note.“done” Chimere dusted her hands smiling at herself. She felt satisfied with the work of her hands. “girls..” Seranda called making Iris and Chimere simultaneously turn towards her.“I want you two to cooperate and help the children. we all expect you back before dust. we have to head home before the break of dawn the coming day and I won't have you sleeping all through the way Chimere” Iris turns to Chimere who just smiles.“Come” Seranda opens her hands, making Chimere run into them without hesitation.“I know you will do just fine. take this as your first and official visit to the Pack as princess of Limfieya. get to know the people and interact with them both as princesses and as fr
Unknown Pov.Iris walks up to her father pulling out a seat for herself with her eyes never leaving his. “Hey,” Alpha Mark says to the surprise of his daughter who just stares at him, not sure how to react to his gentle gesture.“I'm sorry,” he said, almost throwing Iris off her seat. She had not been expecting him to be out straight with her, not to talk of him apologizing.“Daddy” Iris' voice comes out like a whisper. she could not hold back her tears as they came streaming down her face crowding her vision.“I thought you didn't love me anymore,” she says trying hard to wipe away her tears with the back of her palms with a snob running its way down her nostrils.“I will never stop loving you Iris, how can I stop loving my daughter?” Iris sniffs.“But mother doesn't love me. She loves Chimere more. I know she would have been happy if I were the one to have a deaf wolf and not Chimere and even the baby loves her and not me” Iris laments.Deep down she was aware she wanted no baby sib
