Chapter 22

Authors POV

The Alpha moved through the garden, his entire body thrumming with the scent of the one the moon goddess had destined for him, his hands brushing through the shaped thorn of roses that scattered across the path. Their leaves called out to him as they tapped into the flow of life streaming through me. He could hear the telltale swish of the pond , almost as if someone was disturbing its calm.

He’d only tapped into the wart but source streaming signs of hee form from the very tips of her feet that stood upon the ground, to the wind that blew against her hair. Celene probably thought she was all alone and that’s supposed to be certain judging by the closed space that served as an entrance into the woods, if not the gifts that the alpha possessed he probably would have missed the slight change in the direction of the bushes and missed the rustling of leaves and the sound of the water.

Her hands touched the pair of skin that reached out also to brush the hair backwards.Celene couldn’t figure out what to do, hee emotions were once more going haywire and completely all over the place again. What was with her entire existence seizing to listen to anything she had to say when he was near. “Do you want me to get you your clothes??” Mondrian asked in an attempt to at least offer her the sense of privacy she so clearly needed. He studied her entire features watching as her brows furrowed almost in the same time frame that he’d possibly had a thought. It was rare to find other werewolves possessing powers similar to that of the Lycan Genus, Alex had explained that celene had exhibited some form of empathetic mirror ability. One that occurred due to instability of one’s natural power.He’s halfway across the water and Celene is ha

    Chapter 24 Celene’s POV My heart was pounding furiously in my chest as I opened the door to my room, with the anticipation of no more than finding the solitude that was becoming my good friend. But as I stepped through the door frame, there, standing in the center of the room, was Cristoff, his presence as unexpected and unwelcome as it was. His eyes cut straight into mine, his gaze piercing deep within my soul. "Where have you been?" Desperation laced in the tightness of his voice, though it stayed serenely cool as ever. My first reaction to him being there was an angry storm mixed with fear. I was cautious, wasn't I? Nobody was supposed to know about my affairs. Least of all, Cristoff. For a moment, I just stayed there, appalled, my mind reeling for some possible means of escape. "What are you doing here?" I finally demanded, my voice sharper than I had intended it to be. I stepped backward, trying to put some distance between us, as though somehow this could ease the tensi

    Chapter 25 Celene pov Cristoff, stop! You're too loud, someone might hear you," I said to him, placing my ear on the door to feel if someone might be outside. "But are you sure you're telling me the truth? Because, believe me, I am really confused here," I said, trying to pull my hands away from his grasp. But he held them tight, his eyes locked on mine. "Celine, just look into my eyes. Do you think I would stand here lying to you?" he asked, his voice filled with sincerity. But I could see in his eyes that he wasn't joking. There was so much seriousness written all over him. I was taken aback by his intensity. "But how can I understand all this, Cristoff? This isn't making any sense," I said, feeling frustrated and confused. "I know, and I understand you very much," he replied, his grip on my hands still firm. "But why do you think I've been coming to your room the previous nights? It was because I wanted to talk to you, to tell you the truth." I looked at him, searching for

    Chapter 26 Celene's pov The smacks of our shoes hitting linoleum were the only sounds that could be heard in the empty hall, as I walked down the halls with Christof by my side. We moved in silence each with their thoughts as to why we had been called— I had been called, but for reasons known to Christoff, he had insisted on coming along, despite my desires that he did not. I shot a glance at the man who had hurt me, by sleeping with my stepsister. And now had returned to beg for forgiveness, something I wasn't too sure I could give. Though his excuse had stirred at my guilt, I couldn't help but feel I had made the right decision as a flash of our conversation played in my mind. “Celene please believe me I never meant to hurt you. All I had done was for you.” Christof said, falling on his knees beside me. I scoffed, my arm folded as I raised my brows in hot indignation, “You truly expect me to believe that nonsense. That you slept my step-sister-terr was for my good?” I hissed at

Or do you think yourself better than us?” My heart pounded as a deep feeling of fear churned in the deeper parts of my stomach, This was the Valerie I knew, she had always made me feel smaller than I was, It was a favorite pastime for her, yet I still haven't gotten used to it, she would wheedle and prodded until I felt stupid and unwanted and when I turned towards my father for help he would look at me blankly before excusing himself. With Alpha Mondrain's arrival and his interference, she had laid low and I had forgotten her bullying ways, but the good thing only lasted for a while it seemed, I bowed my head as I answered her. “I apologize stepmothe

My kingdom hijacked, and my authority questioned. I seethed in disgust as I settled into my seat waiting for this all to be over. “My lady are you all right, do you perhaps need anything? Alpha Mondrian was too harsh.” Talia my long-time aid and closest companion whispered to me, her voice tainted with worry. I waved at her to assure her, “I am fine. Don't worry too much about it, soon it will be over and he will be gone. When did the other party say they would be leaving?” I questioned, as I tried to drown the argument already heated. Talia hesitated in her speech her eyes widened, as an annoying scream of ‘No’ resounded round the hall, I frowned as I turned towards her, “Ignore them. Tell me. Has there been any news ?” “My..my..lady…” The frightened girl, stuttered as she tried to ignore the hea

There's no need to do that anymore. I'll be leaving now.”My cheeks puffed unwilling to spout my displeasure, Christoff squeaked as he ran to b

    Chapter 30 Mondrian “Celene I beg of you, listen to…” The bang of the giant oat door, hitting its frame told me all I needed to know. Firstly Celene was angry the second she was gone. The woman set to be my bride was gone, and with her a man I was beginning to wonder why I hadn't removed him from the picture long ago. I ran a hand through my face as I wondered how it came to be like this, how could I have been so stupid as to fight over her choices? I needed to make things right. As I readied myself to warp into time, ready to go after her. My senses urged me to move and yet I remained where I stood. Did she want me to? Wouldn't she hate me more if I simply ignored her request? Amidst my dilemma, the thuds of feet remind me of the people I had ignored, I turn to find the servants, helping each other up, many still pale from my burst of Aura, my eyes soon clash with a pair of violets that seemed mostly unaffected, I felt a flush of annoyance as Valerie's eyes crinkled, her li

    101 Celene The thoughts of the previous night kept replaying in my head, couldn’t stop replaying the moment in my mind. Mondrian walked away from me, his face a myriad of emotions that I could place, walking away from me after that hug that left me wanting him to stay, yet too embarrassed to do anything. What was that all about? It wasn’t like him to act so cold, Mondrian always made sure to savor every single moment of our time together. That hug should have lasted for quite a while before breaking it with a kiss. Although I tried not to think too deeply about his actions, I couldn't help but feel his walking away had to do with the promise he had made to me. Did he not want to do it or was he having second doubts? The thought ate at me all night. Twisting and turning in bed all night, pulling the blanket tighter, then throwing it off entirely. Sleep eluded me no matter what I did or how hard I tried. My mind kept circling back to him— his expression, him walking out without so

    100 Mondrian I stepped into my office to find Alex my beta and best friend waiting for me, his arms folded and his face set in his usual calm and unreadable expression. Although It was his usual look, but something about it annoyed me. Maybe it was the tension in the air, or maybe it was the way my own guilt over Celene—walking away from her—still clung to me like a heavy cloak. Either way, I wasn’t in the mood for pleasantries. “Alex,” I greeted curtly, nodding as I took my seat at the head of the desk. "Alpha," he responded, his tone even, but I caught the flicker of Amusement in his eyes. He knew something. Before I could say anything more, Arlen walked in, his boots clicking against the floor as he joined us. His young face showed none of the excitement he usually eluded instead the shadows under his eyes and the way he sighed told a different tale. It was not surprising, considering the mission I’d sent him on. "Arlen," I said, leaning forward. "Any News young one? Are t

    99 Mondrian “What the heck was that?” Zara’s sharp voice followed me as I turned towards the stairs leading to my office. “Do you even realize how harsh you were?” she asked, walking in tandem with me, arms placed hastily on her hips. I stopped mid-step and turned to her, my jaw tightening. “I was harsh for a good reason.” My voice was cold and fiand rm, Zara’s eyes held mine, “She disobeyed me, Zara. She could’ve gotten hurt or worse.” “She didn’t, though,” she countered, her voice calm but firm, her arms crossed across her chest. “And yelling at her like that isn’t going to make her listen to you. If anything, you’re just going to push her further away. I thought you wanted her to fall for you. This isn't the way Mondrian.” Her words hit me like a blow to the chest. I hated to admit it, but she was right. The look on Celene’s, face when I had scolded her—hurt, betrayed, and shocked kept replaying in my mind. It made me feel sick to my stomach. The thought of Celene shifting

    98 Celene I stared at her, my hand still raised, my chest heaving. The energy I’d felt when I had merged with Alera surged through me, I could feel the electric tension as my hands trembled from the rush. What the heck was that? My mind whirling as It struggled to process what had just happened. Pecan’s stunned face didn't change as she stared at me, and I couldn’t shake the image of her flying. Albeit satisfying that should have been impossible, I shouldn't be able to do that…not with Pecan who had a place in Mondrian's army, rumors about her slaying mountains of men had welcomed me on my very first day, despite her nasty attitude, she was someone Mondrian had acknowledged and I had thrown her with a flick of my wrist. The hallway grew eerily silent, for a second it all felt like a dream, but my heartbeat pounded loudly in my ears telling a different tale. Then, out of nowhere, Zara appeared, her face full of worry as she hurried toward me. “What happened? I heard a scream,” s

    97 Celene I woke up to find Mondrian sitting by my bed, his head in his hands. His shoulders looked heavy like he was carrying the weight of the world. The dim light of the room made his dark hair gleam, and his expression, when he finally glanced up at me, was nothing short of pained. My heart skipped at his forlorn expression. “Mondrian?” My voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper. My throat burning, and everything felt… off—dull. Still, I reached out to him “What’s wrong?” He exhaled slowly like he was relieved just to hear me speak. “Celene,” he said, his voice soft but laced with tension. “You’re awake. I'm glad.” But his expression still didn't change. “Of course I’m awake,” I said, frowning, as a soft groan escaped My lips. My head was pounding, and my memories were foggy. Before I could ask what had happened, a single memory turned sharp in my mind, and it made my heart leap, excitement fueled my voice looking towards him “I turned! Didn’t I?” His face fell fur

    96 Mondrian “Why would you say that, Mondrian?” The voice startled me. In the chaos of trying to save Celene and then battling Maria's words, I had forgotten about the people around me. I turned around, and there he was, glaring at me like I’d just committed some sort of crime. His arms were crossed over his chest, and his expression was sharp a far cry from his usual expressionless face. “You think this is your fault?” he demanded, his voice harsh. “Celene turning and then her fever? You think you’re the reason she’s like this?” I didn’t say anything for a moment. How could I explain? He wouldn’t understand. “If I had been paying a little bit of attention, I would’ve noticed something was wrong,” I finally said, my voice quiet but firm. “if only I wasn't so selfish…I could’ve done something to stop it.” Alex shook his head, frustrated. “Stop it? Stop what, Mondrian? The fever? The turning? What exactly?” His voice rises with every question, “Celene is an adult, she can make h

    95 Mondrian “Aren't you in love with Celene?” Zara's words replay in my head on a continuous loop, her words hit me like a punch to the guys, her eyes boring into mine as she stared at me with a look of assuredness. She followed up by stating her efforts towards bringing I and celene together. I had been too shocked to defend myself, too unsure of what was in store for me, I could only stutter, Zara had looked at me with a face tinged with a shock that I hadn't realized before patting my shoulder urging me to think about my next steps before leaving me to my thoughts, with a simple excuse. Too shocked to function I walked back into the room, and her pale unconscious face came into view. Was I in love with Celene? Had I been very obvious in my interest in her? Did Celene like me too? The thoughts ricochet around my mind, mixing in with my feelings of worry towards Celene, until it becomes a giant pile of nerves. With a huff, I fall back on the bed. “What am I doing?” I muttere

She had fallen unconscious. This was all my fault, I had no one else to blame, I should have stopped her when she wanted to try again, and I should have been more strict. Despite her being unconscious, her body begins the painful process of turning human. I winced at every crack, her weak body made even when she didn't acknowledge them. Pilling her close to my chest I waited out the turning process murmuring sweet meaningless nothings, while I prayed for it all to be over. At the last pop, I pull off my jacket to cover her semi-naked body, she had been in her underwear during the transformation, and she had feared ruining the sportswear she had walked in with. Her body flushed red from the pain and soaked with sweat, glistened under the sweltering sun. With

    93 Celene My talk with Zara put my thoughts in line. To learn more information about my history I needed to ask my father, which I couldn't do on my own, so another goal was created— I needed to overpower Luna Valerie and my father to become strong enough so they respect me. To do so I needed power— more than I already had. Which could only be gotten if I learned to turn, the history book clearly stated the silver wolfs were blessed with powers, and even Alera could confirm, but for some odd reason she couldn't unlock it. Further solidifying my reasons to become stronger, I needed a teacher. I need Mondrian. There was no one more fitting of the role other than Alpha Mondrian. He understood my problem and wanted to help, moreover, I was comfortable a bit with him. I held my breath, my hands growing sweaty, waiting for him to give me an answer. His deep grey eyes bore into mine, holding me in place, “Are you sure Celene? I thought we agreed you should take things slow.” He asked,
