Chapter 23: MarkedMy mind went blank hearing it, I stared at his face until I fully got what he meant. “What?” “If I will mark you, he’ll surely feel it. He triggered you, then we’ll trigger him.” He suggested while I unconsciously touched my neck. “I’m sorry, I know it wasn’t that simple. I was just desperate, I think. I understand if you won’t agree with it.” He said and stood up. I didn’t dare to speak until he was out of sight. I dropped my spoon, I couldn’t bring my appetite back anymore. I couldn’t explain what I was feeling. If I would let him mark me, what will my second chance mate feel about it? Yet the idea was still good if he was telling the truth. I drank water and looked at my hand. I need to regain my strength back, enough problems for now. I crawled to my old bed here and pulled the blanket to cover me. I thought closing my eyes would make me feel better and I could rest but I saw his face. He was taking care of me. He brought me here and made sure I was
Chapter 24: Bloody Night I stealthily walked behind the tree, we didn’t get into his pack village. They were out for hunting I think, we saw them lurking around near the cave. I climbed on a tree to have a good spot to shoot them. I was far enough that they couldn’t smell me. I gently pulled the string and aim the one next to Dion. I released it and saw how they gather around him to protect him. I smiled and drew on my lips as he howl in anger. I looked down and saw Rylan down there looking in the same direction I was looking at. I didn’t waste time and released another arrow. I shoot his beta, then his gamma. I need to bring his pack down and I would do it one by one. I immediately jumped down before anyone could see me. Good thing Rylan was fast enough to catch me and shifted. We run in the other direction to his village. I was to give them a little surprise while their stupid Alpha was out. “Three dead bodies is enough for tonight, four would be better, and more than th
Chapter 25: A little PeaceLying in my bed while looking at the ceiling in this cave was somehow a little peaceful but boring. Rylan left so I didn’t know where. ‘I wonder if she has given birth already, they don’t have to worry about it since the baby will be out safely.’ Being the villain with a heart sucks, my mind was telling me to kill them both to make Dion suffer while my heart was telling me to spare the child, he or she has nothing to do with his parents' sin. I felt stupid to give that consideration. I pointed my finger to the ceiling and the image started to form in light. She was giving birth while Dion was watching her. I could see his anger and pain. ‘Well, that’s what he deserves.’ ‘Push!’ I heard their healer say and followed by her scream of pain. I waved my hand and the scenario vanished. A strong and healthy child would come out and they’d surely celebrate it. “Are you happy?” I asked, I know he was listening. I heard him enter the cave and I didn’t bot
Chapter 26: Dion’s AngerMy eyes flew open when I heard a noise, soon I realized that it was Rylan trying to wake me. I was about to ask him what was wrong when I heard someone snarling behind me. I sat up and a wicked smile crept on my lips, “What did you do?” His warning Alpha voice wasn’t affecting me anymore. His golden eyes weren’t as beautiful as before. “Picnic?” I got an apple and bit it, I showed it to him and I only receive was a loud snarl. “You don’t know what you are doing Rogue!” Ouch, he didn’t call my name anymore. “Is that what you call your mate, Dion?” I asked him, trying to annoy him more. “You are not my mate, never did and never will! You don’t deserve to be a Luna, no Luna will cause harm to her pack!” My mood instantly shut off. I looked into his eyes and took a step forward. “You are evil! Your blood is dirty as your soul, continue to harm my pack and you’ll see my wrath!” He was beyond angry so do I.“It was you who ruin me first!” I felt a hand
Chapter 27: Planted TrapsHe messed up things, I didn’t get it. What did he mean? Confused but I couldn’t ask him. I nodded even though, I didn’t understand what he meant.I laid back again and forget about it. I need to plan my revenge. ‘Or do I deserve revenge? All of this is my fault.’“Do you think all of what is happening to me is my fault? Do you think I deserve this?”“Don’t listen to him, of what we are doing can maybe wrong but he deserves all of this. He needs to pay for all the evilness he did.” Yeah, for his mate and my Aunt. And besides, after the next full moon, it would be the end for me. Tomorrow would be the second day of the break for them, I would let that day to go on waste. ***I hide my scent while stealthily walking at the boundary of the territory. I got my wand and flicked it to the stone and it turned into a rabbit. “What are you doing?” I heard him ask. “You’ll stop eating rabbits from now on. Once someone would eat that, an illness would catc
Chapter 28: His Wife's DeathMy hand touched his chest and the warmth of his body against my palm was addicting, my neck burned when I heard him gasp with my touch. My fingers climbed to his neck and pulled him closer. I didn’t know what I was doing but I felt him sucking my lower lip gently. While his hands were hugging my waist. I didn’t know how long it lasted until we run out of breath. I moved away and my head on his shoulder while hugging him. “I honestly don’t know what is going on,” I confess this was new to me. I had no idea what were those feelings and why I felt that. It was pleasing but burning. It made me feel nervous and enjoy it at the same time. “Do you trust me?” “Yes,” I answered right away. “I will never break your trust, just do what you think or feels right.” “Okay.” ****"We're visiting the pack today." Days had passed and I decided to proceed today. Since it was a fine and nice day, probably a good day for them. I would not let them enjoy it to
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 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
