Chapter 29: Wounded BabyI jumped out from where I was hiding and flicked my wand to the one who bit him. He fell to the ground with Rylan so I ran to him."Rylan," I touched his wounds on his abdomen and my hand couldn't help to tremble. I hugged him and used the teleporting spell. "Oh my god." His wounds were too deep. "Hold on." I stood up and found a coconut shell the run to the water to get some water.I ran back to him and poured the water on his wounds. Good thing I'm a healer. "Are you okay?" I asked, he didn't speak a word yet since we got here."Yeah." I noticed he was holding his smile back. What was to smile about? Did he think it was a simple wound?"How did a mere wolf slip from your guard?" I was about to make my speech when he laughed."Nothing is funny, Ry." "You're cute when you're worried." What the hell? That made me blink twice, I wasn't expecting that."Rylan!""What?"I hit his arm, "hey! My wound.""Nothing is funny, Rylan you could have died!
Chapter 30: My Heart For HimMy heart almost jumped when he suddenly asked me to sing for him. I couldn't tell if was only making fun of me or if he wanted me to sing for him.“Are you sure?““Please.“I cleared my thoughts and started singing a song, I didn't know how the lyrics manage to come out of my mouth while I was only looking at his face. I never imagine that I would adore him this close. Now I'm sure, I'm lost. I couldn't understand what was happening. All I knew was that I want to be with him and spend every hour of my life with him. Is this what they call love?Is it possible to fall in love with a man that isn't your mate?What if all of this is wrong? Liking a man that doesn't belong to you. No, I don't like, him I love him.“You're the best thing that ever happened in my life, Rylan.“He opened his eyes and looked at mine. I could say that he was surprised until a smile crept on his lips. “Will you stay with me until my last breath?“Crazy. The only word th
Chapter 31: Faraway “You aim your arrow in the wrong direction, Olive.“ His voice had gone weaker than before. His white bears had gotten longer and his clothes looked unattended. I wonder how long he had been wearing that.“I know what my arrow wants.“ I should show no mercy as what he did before. Acting brave while my grip could break the bow and silently praying not to tremble.His old deceiving look has worsened my judgment. “Oh really? Then what your arrow wants?“ It was him who taught me that I should know what my arrow wants. It has been a long time since I see this mentor of mine. “Your flesh.“ The taste of lies had never been this worse. A half smile curved on his lips and suddenly pointed his arrow at me. “Do you wanna know what my arrow wants?““I'm not nosy as you are.“ He released his arrow so I jumped away from my location to avoid his arrow. “I taught you how to hunt skillfully, but one thing you haven't mastered yet. When you aim your arrow, never hesitate t
Chapter 32: HappiestNothing could ever snatch the smile on my lips, life was never been sweet like this. Waking up in the morning and cooking food that I would be sharing with Rylan. My smile grew wider when I felt warm arms snaked around my waist. "Good morning, my Olive," he whispered in my ears and kissed my neck. "Good morning to you too," I replied and add the last ingredient to the pot. "How long would this take still?" He asked about the food. "Just a few minutes more." I wish everything would stay this way, I wish that would have him forever. How I wish that the time would stop here so I could stay here at my happiest. He helped me prepare the table and he sat there waiting for me to finish serving our food. We found a perfect place near the river and we created a house there. Life was in the simplest form but the happiest and in peace. We would spend our day fishing and gathering something to eat. We would also visit the market down the mountain and buy thing
Chapter 33: Full MoonThe moon reached its peak and I heard him howl. While I feel like passing out and throwing up. I heard another howl which wakens my system. I felt the burning in y chest back. "AWOOOOOO!"I howled back and felt the craving of running to the wood where the howl came. I felt my bones move and my palm fell to the ground, I was about to run when Rylan stood in my way. I snarled at him and I saw how his face turned sad like he was betrayed. "Zenith, where are you going?" He sounded begging so I walked to him and wagged my tail. I have my wolf back. He sat down and I lay on his lap. He didn't shift but his eyes were gold and I know it was his wolf. "You are so beautiful." He said and touched my fur. I stood and snuggled in his neck then walked around him while pushing him. I was asking him to run, I wanted to run. "Okay-okay," he stood and shifted. I ran and he was running behind me, I would glance at him and run faster. I missed the feeling of running like th
Chapter 34: His Temperament "YOU BELIEVE HIM?" I flinched when he suddenly shouted. He never raises his voice to me until now. "I am asking, Rylan." My pride would put me in place. "Olive, he destroyed your life!""That is not my question." He slowly shook his head while throwing me unbelievable stares. "I am just asking, Rylan. You are making this a big deal when it's not.""Not a big deal? What part is not a big deal? When he claimed you again, and I know you can feel the bound."I walked to him and held his arm. "Rylan, calm down. I only want an answer.""FINE! She died because of an illness and he refused to help when he learned that I was her mate. Do you know what he said? Your mate is a traitor, so as you are." My heart broke when I realized that he lied. "You said, you came from east. Can you explain that unmatch information you fed me?" He lied, why did he lie?"Zen, it's not what you think, he's manipulating your thoughts. He wanted to break us." My hand slippe
Chapter 35: Home ComingVoices and sounds were around me. "Olive, Olive, you're safe now." Faint voices filled my ears. "She'll wake anytime soon." Words that waken my system, I felt a soft surface and cool air kissing my skin so I opened my eyes."Olive," I was expecting to see a different face and I failed to see him. "Let go of my hand, Dion," I said and pulled away my hand. I didn't jump off that cliff to fall here. I should have died by now why did they save me?"I saved you," I couldn't identify how he got the courage to barge it off my face when he had been wanting to slit my throat since the day he rejected me. 'This bond is a curse to me, I kept falling in the place when I should because he never caused good to me. "I don't need you to do that." "Did Rylan leave? What did I tell you? Rylan can't be trusted. He wouldn't be a rouge for nothing.""Shut up," I said and tried to stand up. I head straight to the door."Where are you going?" I felt a warm hand holdi
Chapter 36: His ApologiesI could easily create a house using my craft but I choose to not and stayed up on the tree and created something to lay on. I could stare at the moon all night while a basket of apples was on my side. I took one and checked if it was laced with poison and I smelled nothing on it. I took a bit and it was delicious, just apple nothing more. No poison good thing. Rylan used to cook for me now I couldn't eat without thinking of him. He created a special part in my heart, yet maybe he wasn’t for me and I am stuck with that ruthless Alpha. I would never love Dion again, he would never replace Rylan in my heart but if the moon goddess wanted me to end up with him, what would I do?"I don't think I should worry about my mate." My name was Zenith, who were my parents? Where should I start?" Dion's Pack. I wouldn’t visit that pack again, I couldn't Dion now. He needs something from me, maybe a cure for his pack members that were poisoned by my rabbits. He
Chapter 78: Epilogue Anger could drive us to somewhere we never really wanted. You may regret it once you get there, but the mistake was part of my growth, what mattered was I managed to come back on track. Sulking in pain, anger, and confusion felt like hell. It felts like walking somewhere you did not know. It felts like being caged in a huge space where no matter how you run, you could find the end. Just darkness all over you. Escape could never put an end to a battle, it will only hunt you again and again. So, I chose to finally face it. The battle that was plotted for me. Standing now, looking at everyone around me. With witches and werewolves, among us, I am the only half-blooded. Being different is a blessing and a curse, and they were part of my Twisted Fate. “Mom!” Orion called me while running in my direction. He’s six now and Radian would be turning five. “They're here!” He said and held my hand. He pulled me to the field and saw the Alphas with their wives. It’s been
Chapter 77: The Beginning at The End“Rylan…baby,” I whispered and reached his face. Tears fell from his eyes, but he had no emotion. “Save me…” I begged and he pulled the knife out. He broke into tears when I fell on the ground to catch me. If this was my end, at least I knew he still love me. At the edge of my eyes, I saw Linda break the pendant of Venon’s necklace. “Zenith…” he was panicky when I bleed too much. Then my stomach started to grow. My son is hurt. We all heard its heartbeat. “Get away from her!” Lizo shouted and pulled me away. “No, he’s back, it’s okay.” I held Rylan tightly, I did not want to let him go. I might lose him again. My wound lightened up with blue light and soon it healed. My son saved me again. Then it returned to normal as if he was saying finish everything now.“Thank you, my little fighter.” The war has ended and pulled him into a tight hug. “I missed you so much.” “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I hurt you.” He was whispering again and again.
Chapter 76: Cold Memories I tried to do not to fight more unless it was needed. I need to conserve my power. I cannot let myself overuse my power. They probably suspect that I was pregnant, her words left me hanging. I was surprised. I need to choose my fight now. He sent a battalion of the army, but he hasn’t shown himself again. I’d know if he’s already dead. His memory will flash in my head. I would see what was in his heart that he had been keeping. Everyone that tries to attack me would be taken care of by my beta. She hasn’t left my side. I knew they were worried and I should not worry them more. But at the edge of my eyes, I saw the black-capped man staring straight at me. I ran to him and attacked him using my claw. If he was a werewolf, he should shift but I never saw him shift. “Who are you?” I asked him. “Why was he calling you Rylan?” I asked and kept attacking him. “HOW DARE YOU USE HIS NAME!” I shifted and attacked him furiously. He was too fast to avoid all my
Chapter 75: The War Day OneEveryone was out there preparing for the war. I was looking at my pack, would this pack survive? Our women, children, and oldies were on their way to Alpha Gado’s pack. The army of witches has arrived. “I want to ask you something, Miradel. How will I know that I am about to give birth?” “Few days before you give birth, your scent will start to change, its presence will surface sometimes but it will hide again. They might hear its heartbeat sometimes and it would be gone in a minute.” She answered. I do not have time to delay. I nodded in response. When I got to the ground, everyone was there. Linda came to me with her fierce face. “Do not kill him, please. Promise me. Alpha, promise me, you will let him live.” I nodded to assure her. But truly, I could not promise that. If he would try to harm me, I would be left with no choice but to end him. “They’re coming, hide,” I said and they all ran into the woods. They’d attack our pack, but no one wa
Chapter 74: My Reckless ActionAt night I stealthily left our pack and vowed to be back before sunset. My destination was something they’d never expected. I did everything I could to sneak into his pack. Until I got into her laboratory. “What are you doing?” I suddenly heard Dion’s voice, so I placed my ears against the wall. Their faint conversation pulled my interest. “Making you stronger.” It was Venon. “What is that?” “Power. Don’t ask anymore. Just do as I say, you’ll win this war. Move now before they could fully prepare for the war. Strike while her army hasn’t been fully cooked.” Good. Move now, Dion. I don’t care. I turned to hide but someone covered my mouth and pulled me into a room. I knew that scent. “What are you doing in here?” He whispered while trying to make sure no one was around and no one could hear us. “Spying.”“Recklessly? You should have sent spies.” Alpha Titus said. “I haven’t received anything from them yet, so I went to investigate myself.
Chapter 73: Fatal Situation“What!” “You are maybe pregnant.” She repeated. “That’s impossible, I should feel that if I am pregnant, and it’s been months since that day. My stomach should grow bigger by now, and especially, I should hear its heartbeat.” I said I was confident when I said that. She did not know the whole story. It has been months and I lost count of when I was last with him. The last full moon, I guess. “I am not messing around, you cannot be that powerful for you are half-blooded even if you are Minerva’s descendant or an ancient healer white werewolf. That power would only be possible if it was the combination of the power of two witches or wizards.” I shook my head. She was talking nonsense. How could that be possible when I have a flat stomach? “No,”“You and your child’s power.” She said and I was on the verge of shifting. “Hear me out, I will not say something like this for nothing. I have seen that kind of power before in your grandmother when she was
Chapter 72: Early BetrayalI crossed my arms while watching him leave, he just added pressure to my fist; he just added more reason to bring them down. ‘I will never bring him down.’ “I don’t like him.” Lizo suddenly spoke behind me. “Asked him if he liked you first,” I spoke.“That’s harsh,” “I was never soft, Lizo, don’t mock me.” I started feeling nauseous, so I walked back to my office to rest. While Lizo was tailing me. “What do you want?” “You don’t look fine.” He said I was not feeling right truly. “Those Alphas stressed me out, they’re chaotic,” I said and closed my eyes then leaned on my chair. “They weren’t really trying to piss you off, they were just pointing out obvious things but you looked stressed about it.” My head cringed when I heard that. “Are you saying I was overreacting?” “No! Of course not, I just find it odd since you don’t usually show your mad, you would throw sarcastic remarks like nothing, you were unbothered usually…”“And your point
Chapter 71: The Explosion “Should I lie that I did not know you knew?” I mean nothing, it just slipped from my tongue. That was too harsh, I think. Socializing wasn’t really my thing, that was why I need Linda.“My Alpha meant; she knew you know.” Linda was trying to lessen my mistake. “I apologize for that, but Venon grew up with humans and got here when she first shifted. She was a late bloomer she only shifted when she met her mate, Dion’s brother.” I answered. “Is that all you knew?” He asked and I nodded. “Unfortunately, yes,” I answered. “You can’t fool me; you seem don’t drop all your cards at once.” He said and crossed his arms. “They had been kidnapping humans for experiments, she was trying to implant an inner wolf in a human.” He said which did not surprise me yet pulled my interest and confusion clouded into my head. “Inner wolf is somewhat our second soul; no human machine can do that,” I spoke. “That was when witches take part.” He said, as expected from
Chapter 70: Untamed AlliesMy head was hurting badly when I was listening to their report back then, I was very pleased, and those Alphas sounded good. What a disappointment when I met them. “You must have plotted your revenge meticulously.” An Alpha my age said while sitting informally. “Yeah, you should’ve planned this flawlessly since you already call us. When-““I doubt she already has. Judging her pack, it was barely stable, she should have fixed her pack before that in my opinion.” Another Alpha spoke. I did not foresee that gathering Alphas in my pack would be this chaotic. They may be sat peacefully but they kept throwing sharp remarks at me. I secretly massage my head. “Are you sure you should move now? As I could see your army hasn’t gotten any muscle.” I saw how my Deltas react to that, but they choose to let me handle it. And it was followed with countless support and even added worse comments. “I’d appreciate it if you’d shut your mouth.” They all shut their m
