CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POV

Despite the warm temperature all throughout the office, I couldn’t refrain myself from getting the chills down my spine as Lucas turned into a ferocious beast, which I never hoped to see, not even once. I unconsciously held onto my necklace as I continuously called for Sarina to come and save me if ever the worst-case scenario occurred.

"Exactly what are you planning to achieve in this realm, Alpha Lucas?" I asked that almost out of a whisper. I was trying my best not to trigger his anger much more than I had already done.

"Total destruction," Lucas replied with little to no hesitation.

I gulped when I realized that Lucas and Ice had the same goal right from the start. I just can’t seem to understand why they were so eager to destroy the world in which they lived. "Once you’ve fulfilled your goal… What will become of you then? Will you kill yourself after you’ve ruined several innocent creatures’ lives?" I stepped backwards every second that passed by.

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI was literally taken aback when I saw the same glowing person that was supposed to only exist inside my head. It was utterly impossible for that guy to exist, so how am I even going to explain and believe what I’m seeing right now?After several attempts at rubbing my eye to assure myself that I wasn’t hallucinating, I asked, "Are you for real?"Ice gazed upon me. "It’s been a long time since we last saw each other. I knew from the beginning that we would still be able to encounter one another, but I wasn’t expecting that you would see me in this form. I was kind of anticipating for the day to come wherein you would be able to recognize me the instant that you see me from somewhere," Ice said without batting an eye on how I reacted to his change."Focus is all you need, Celestina. Once you’ve mustered up all your attention to your one and only wolf, I’m sure that the deities out there would lend you a hand and bring her out of your body. There’s no one in thi

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI almost lost my balance as I felt myself slowly drifting away from this realm. I don't know if I should be glad that, finally, I'll be able to return to the original world where I was born... or should I be anxious that I'll end up leaving everyone that I've met in the Realm of Xenon so far?"Hey, Celestina, come back to your senses! You're here with me in this realm now; you can't just be selfish again and disappear without a word," said a man who had a familiar way of speaking. His accent was definitely one of his assets. "You can't leave me here all by myself!" The man yelled at me, and when his voice finally reached my conscience, I realized that I was still together with Frost in the same dungeon."F-Frost..." I softly called for him. It was a little bit late for me to remove my grip on his collar when he was the one who made sure that I wouldn't let go of him at all. Those kinds of gestures really indicate just how terrified Frost was of the possibilit

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI heaved out a loud sigh to show how frustrated I was, with the thought that getting to be Siege's mate might be the one and only answer for Celeste's desire to gain her freedom. I can't shrug off the thought of how it was utterly impossible for me to accomplish.One of them requires the presence of my wolf to believe that I really am his mate. While the other one here wants me to break the curse first, which would definitely be hard as Siege still doesn't accept me."Can't you just take over my entire conscience like everyone else does? Is it necessary for us to function in two different bodies if, in the end, we would still share the same mind?" I asked, in an attempt to search for another way for Celeste to get what she wants."You have too many questions. Don't you know the saying that curiosity can kill?" Celeste shook her head in disappointment. Then she snapped one of her fingers, which made the surroundings change.I was hit with a sense of nostalgia a

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVMost of the time, I still can't figure out if my presence in this realm would actually have any benefit for those who resided here first. After all, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I were to be the reason for their beloved realm's destruction.I sighed as I felt the presence of a man approaching me. I could sense how careful he was because of those little footsteps that he was making as he walked. "What do you want?" I asked without bothering to look behind me.A soft chuckle echoed through the hallway of the pack house. "Nothing in particular, Celestina. Did Frost harm you?" Ice asked as if he knew nothing about what occurred back at the dungeon.I wasn't so sure what my answer would be. It's not like it was Frost's intention to force me to meet with Celeste, so I just shook my head. "Frost had almost the same personality as you did. It's great to see that you get along just fine with your wolf. I can't imagine myself being in the same situation as yo

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThere wasn't any kind of celebration, as I assumed. We were instructed by the alpha to directly move on with the training for this day and head over to his office after we're done. Come to think of it, the way that he approached me was totally different compared to the first time. It's like he has already forgotten the rage that he felt every single time that he saw my resemblance to Sarina. Or maybe he's just forcing himself to, because I wasn't even related to the moon goddess."Which would you prefer in actual combat, Celestina?" Ice broke the silence between us, which ruined the thoughts that were running through my mind. "There are a lot of options that you can choose from; there's no need to rush with your decision. You can still give each one of those a try to test if the item you've chosen really fits and suits you," he added.There are a variety of bows and arrows on top of a white cloth. Guns that even those who haven't gone to a shooting class can

    SIEGE WONG'S POVThe memories from almost a decade ago still haunt me, just as if they only happened yesterday. I can still remember every little bit of its details, starting from how my life began to fall and crumble and until it finally broke into miserable fragments that can no longer be regenerated.If only wounds of the past could be healed quickly, just like my injuries do... Then, at least for a while, living in this filthy world wouldn't be that disappointing."Bro, are you alright?" Kris went into my office without knocking. He's always been like that, since day one. He has this weird habit of invading someone else's privacy, though he only does it with those he's close with. "You've been spacing out lately, ever since the last time that you saw her. Are you still hung up with what happened in the past?" he asked. Both of his eyebrows were raised due to the state of concern.I didn't know what answer I would give this brother of mine. Because even if I attempted to lie, he'd b

    SIEGE WONG'S POVThis unusual sensation that I'm getting inside my body is evolving. It was a burning feeling that wouldn't be solved by simply drinking any sort of beverage. I'm thirsty at the touch of Tina; I want to hold her, and I want to hear her sweet voice calling my name.I want to keep her as my only possession, so she wouldn't be able to escape my grasp.And that would only be possible if I accepted the offer of this moon goddess, wherein I could be alone with Tina. She wouldn't bother being with someone else, as only the two of us would have the memories of our times spent here in this disastrous, unjust world."So... Exactly where can we locate this Tina that you speak of?" she asked, as if she had the intention to go to her at this moment and bring the two of us to her world.I shrugged my shoulders, even though it was kind of difficult to do as she was still holding me captive. "I don't really know. She's been separated from me for days since she told me that she was bein

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVIce has been the only one who has stayed by my side as the two of us were watching how the scythe was being formed to make it seem like a real duplicate of the one that Stella had. It has been about two hours now, and the person in charge told us that he'd be done with it soon."Are you sure that you're going to be battling against Stella?" Ice asked, and I only nodded my head once in response. "She may be an omega of our pack, but you must not underestimate her capabilities. She's trained herself since she was a young pup, and that scythe of hers almost made it seem like it's her sibling. She doesn't go to any place without it," he added to serve as a warning for me to reconsider my decision. "It's not too late for you to back down, Celestina.""Sorry, but my decision is already final. I don't want the alpha to think that I'm so weak to actually run away from a fight that wouldn't even put my life at risk. We're only going to have a friendly duel, which would

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI should've believed my guts from the start. And if I did, then Ice wouldn't have had to act as a sacrifice for us to survive and win against the Moon Goddess. I never imagined that he could've been this risky, since I knew him as the type of person who values his own life more than anyone else's."Ice!" I yelled out his name, trying to reach out to him, but he was already too far away from me. "Damn it, Ace! Did the two of you plan this beforehand? Was this why you prevented him from telling me whatever it was?" I questioned him out of frustration, even though I already knew the answer to it.Ace couldn't bear to look me in the eye because of the guilt that was surging in his mind. "I'm sorry. This was the only way for us to live and get through this, Celestina. I already asked him a lot of times to think this over, but Ice insisted that he should be the sacrifice if it comes down to it," he explained. He kept on playing with his fingers while his head was b

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI screamed to stop the Moon Goddess from erasing the portal's existence. I've been desperately waiting for it to show itself for years, and now that I finally have the chance to get back to my world, I won't let Sarina ruin my dream."Don't do it, Celestina. Do you know what will happen to you if you kill Sarina?" Siege questioned me. His voice was still filled with authority, but there was also a hint of concern in it. "You're going to end up with the same fate as her; you'll die the very second that she dies. That's why there still wasn't anyone who dared to take her life, since it's the same as killing themselves," he explained.Sarina chuckled upon hearing the alpha's explanation. "If you don't want her to take my life, would you do the honor of killing me?" she asked out of pure curiosity.I glanced at Siege, waiting for what his response would be, but his mouth remained shut for minutes. That silence was enough for me to confirm that he's not prepared t

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVAt first glance, I didn't think that Sarina would descend at this kind of time when a lot of people were still awake. And as expected, all of those around us had their eyes focused on the Moon Goddess. They probably haven't seen them from such a close distance before, which wasn't the case for me.I sensed Stella holding my fingertips, and even if it was just that, I could still feel how strongly she was shaking. It might have been because of the dominant presence of Sarina, or maybe she was just afraid that she might get punished for desiring to take my spot."I came here in case you forgot about the portal, Celestina Villarama." Sarina broke the silence between us, and my eyes widened, realizing that I only thought of the upcoming judgment day and not the next summons of the portal. "In less than a few minutes, the portal is going to show itself in the place where you saw it together with them," she added.The Moon Goddess didn't bother to take a few steps

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe woman that all of us didn't want to see this duel barged into the beta's room, and right when I thought that she would yell and demand that they stop, she chose to stand by with such a brazen expression on her face. "Stella," I whispered my sister's name, and she didn't even bother to glance at me—not until she was finally taken aback and her consciousness seemed to have returned to reality."Celestina, what's happening here?" Stella asked me, slowly approaching me as she looked twice at the Wongs siblings, who were still rumbling on one another. "Why are they fighting in their wolf forms? I know that they're supposed to have their regular training sessions, but they never shifted before because of training," she added.The way that Stella sounded genuinely curious about the scenario she stepped into made me feel like she hated to see them in a duel too."If I tell you that I'm the reason why they're having a duel right now, will you believe and forgive m

  • Vengeance of The Rejected Mate   Chapter 91 - The Duel

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe way that Kris never spoke right after he saw the mark on his brother's neck made me feel a little bit guilty. I know that I shouldn't be feeling this way since he's not really my mate to begin with, but the way that I got his hopes up that I'd be choosing him and sticking together with him in his new pack that he planned to build was just disappointing.I nudged Siege's arm with my elbow as we were heading inside the Crimson Moon Pack's mansion. He was beside me, and Kris was the one taking the lead."What's wrong with Kris?" I asked, my voice almost coming out like a whisper. "I haven't seen him get this furious before," I added, referring to how Kris wasn't talking to us at all.Siege shrugged his shoulders, pouting. "He's probably hurt that you've got your eyes on me now, unlike before, when he still stood a chance against me," he answered, feeling proud of himself that he was finally able to claim me from his brother.We crossed through the lobby, hea

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVFor the entire night yesterday, I wasn't able to sleep, not even for a minute or two. We had to rest at the same place where Siege killed the Silver Moon Pack's alpha and beta, so it was absolutely uncomfortable for me. Their scent was infuriating to my nose, and it just kept getting stinkier every minute that passed by.Siege wanted to dispose of their bodies in a way that no one would be able to find their corpses, but he had no idea how to do so.I suggested setting their bodies on fire, but it would still gather the pack members' attention, so he made up his mind that he would just make an official announcement that he killed the both of them and that they were the first ones to challenge him to a duel.As their rules were originally set, once someone challenged the other party into a duel, either one of the two had to die, no matter who it was. And now that Siege has done it, he will definitely be the strongest wolf in the whole Dark Valley."Are you goi

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe aura that emitted from Siege was bursting with intense bloodlust, even though he was still not shifted to his wolf form. In each step that he made towards Lucas and Leo, he was glowing in a mixture of a dark and crimson aura."Give me Celestina's pendant back, Leo. I'll give you three seconds to hand it to me," Siege seriously mumbled. He wasn't even looking at any of them, and despite watching them from behind, I can see how Siege was only glancing at his feet."Oh, is this what you're after?" Leo showed him the pendant, waving it in front of his face to force Siege to look at it.The beta of the Silver Moon Pack attempted to break the pendant, but he was unsuccessful in every attempt he made. I couldn't help but smirk upon witnessing how much he humiliated himself in front of Siege because of that failure.I guess Sarina was still on my side after all."You thought that you were being protected by the Moon Goddess?" Siege scoffed, finally raising his he

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVEven after all of those provocations that I gave Leo, I still have no concrete plan on how I can possibly take someone as strong as him down. However, despite the difference in our strengths, I still have the will to fight back because of the moral support that I'm getting from Siege. And besides, he's also in a bind because of Lucas.I never imagined that these two would actually team up and yearn to defeat us, since all along, I seriously believed that Lucas wasn't on good terms with Leo. And it's now making me wonder if Ice was also on the same side as his alpha and beta, or if he had a different mindset than the two."When are you going to stop this farce? I'm getting exhausted from all of these; I just want to live a peaceful life; can't you at least grant me that?" I asked, which was followed by a loud sigh. "I don't deserve to experience all these, do I? I mean, I wasn't even born here; what right do you have to make me suffer like this?" I added to ma

    CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVIt's not that I have no other choice left. Deep down, I was really waiting for the time that Siege would end up breaking in between my pledge with Kris, and that was the main reason why I paused and hesitated before.I nodded my head. "You should also promise the same thing. I don't care anymore if you've really gotten Stella pregnant; just get her out of the Crimson Moon Pack. I want to be your Luna, and I can't bear seeing my sister taking my spot," I said, which came out of my mouth instead of letting it be said through our mind-link.Siege placed his hand above my head, slowly ruffling my hair, saying that I was beautiful. It was the first time for me to hear him call me beautiful now that I'm a grownup. I know that Siege endlessly called me pretty when we were kids, but I never took it seriously since we were still young back then.He moved away from me, telling me to stand still at the corner and let him handle things with Lucas and Leo.
