What favor is he asking for?"What is it, Alpha Zidian?" I asked, confused of what he's going to tell me.The smile on his face faded away, there's a hint of doubt in my chest that I could feel right now."I want you to stay by my nephew's side 24/7." My eyes widened, is he referring to Sebastian? There's no way I can stay that long by his side everyday, it will be every second of my life."W-Why?" I asked, stuttering.He sighed and looked at me apologetically. "I know you have a hint about his disease, don't you?" When I thought of it, I was confused at first.Then I remembered our first meeting. I know that his health isn't well, but I didn't know it was really a disease. "Can you tell me about it, Alpha?" I asked him, the most polite way I can.He nodded his head. "It's a rare disease, Healers Pier can't find the cure. He trusts you, I know. He sees something in you that can be trusted, so I trust his choice too. I would be at ease if I would find someone other than Diane who coul
I was still standing right where he left me, wondering what had just happened. Is he drunk? Because he seems out of his character just now. He flew away after doing that, and he did not even throw a glance nor speak a word. He just left me here alone. "What's his problem?" I asked myself, frowning. I sighed and decided to go back to the Moon Subdue Palace."You're back." The person who told me to meet Sebastian saw me again as I went inside. She has been cleaning the way. "Yes, thank you." I told her.She gave me a smile and nodded her head. Of all the servants out there, I think she's the only one who speaks to me casually, not afraid of the news about me. "Are you okay? You are kinda pale." She asked me, and I unconsciously touched my face after hearing it from her."Am I?" I asked. I am not feeling anything strange though, but she says I look pale right now so maybe that's what she can see. "Yes. Have you eaten this day? Maybe you just forgot, you don't look sick." She reminds m
"I am not imagining anything, what's your problem?" I whispered, shifting my gaze to the other side. I will just wait for Diane to come back but it's been some minute and she's still there, what is she doing inside?I sighed and went down on my knees, trying to look at the small hole again. I need to see what's going on. I peep in but frown when I haven't seen her. "Where are you?" I asked. "What is it?" I almost shouted in shock when I suddenly heard Sebastian ask right beside my ears. My heart beats so fast because of what he did, I feel like I am going to have a heart attack. I did not realize that he was already beside me."What are you doing?!" I asked, keeping my voice low. I frowned as I looked at him but he just stared at me innocently. I rolled my eyes and continued my search. "I can't see her." I told him.His face became serious and contacted her through their mind connection, but then he opened his eyes and shook his head."She did not respond?" I asked. That's the only
"Speak according to the will of your heart." I was so confused at how they speak, it's not the usual tone we use in everyday life. This Xilan tribe seems to live far from how we live at this time. I can't also understand what they mean."This woman endures hardships, the heart will be taken. The soul must be free." Though I couldn't understand what they were saying, I tried to smile.The moment I stared with their eyes, I found something mesmerizing. Their eyes were blue and white, it seemed like I was looking at the sky above the brightest light. All of them have the same eyes. Their skin tone was brown, and it matched their clothes. They are wearing what most tribes wear, and have some arrow and bow, spears, and anything that can be found in the wild as a weapon. They also have the same white triple line in their left cheeks."I am not an enemy." I tried telling them slowly so they could understand me.One of them, a woman whose hair was shoulder length, stepped forward. I looked at
"Oh freaking ancestors! It's still in my mind!" I almost jumped off the chair when Diane shouted out of nowhere. We are now inside the Moon Subdue Palace, staying at the playing room here. Diane told me that this used to be their training ground when they were young to stabilize their minds through playing mind games."What are you thinking?" I asked as I looked at her, she scared the hell out of me. It's so quiet but she kept on shouting."Argh! Those freaking ghosts!" She punched the wall while saying that, stomping her feet on the ground out of frustration. I never thought that the brave Diane I knew was scared of ghosts. It's so funny. I chuckled so she glared at me. "What are you laughing at?" I asked.I shrugged my shoulders, "I was just amazed that you are actually scared of ghosts." I told her, trying to suppress my laugh. She gritted her teeth but then looked away. Sebastian kept on reading a book, but here we are making some disturbing noise around him. "Psh, I am not. Th
I woke up feeling so tired, my body aches a little because of what I did last night. I haven't prepared my physical and even my mental strength for that fight, but still I tried to test Nicolas. After that fight, we finally bid our goodbye to each other since he still has some business to do and I need to catch some rest. But also because of it, I found myself sleeping peacefully. I looked at the window as the sun rays hit my face, I closed my eyes and yawned. I still want to sleep more. I don't know if Diane would have some schedule for us today, however, I am still wishing not to have something to do now. I don't want to be at his side again, I don't even want to see him just today. I think I am not doing the Alpha's request well. I will just say my deepest apologies when I get the chance to talk to him. "It will be a new freaking day for me." I whispered to myself before I laid down on the bed once for a moment and closed my eyes to get some more sleep but I can't anymore, once I
I took a deep breath before even opening my mouth, starting my story telling in a smile so she could not feel so heavy at first."Once upon a time, there was a servant named Isla who fell in love with a prince. She was brave enough to confess her love to Kiro, the son of the King. Even though she was so young and doesn't know what the real meaning of love is, she still took a chance and because of her brave nature, she told the prince her feelings but she did not ask him to like her back. The prince was so shocked about it and told her that he always admired her beauty the moment he saw her that day when they first met. Isla was overjoyed that she asked Prince Kiro if they could be together when they got old, and he happily agreed. Years have passed and their feelings for each other got stronger, until the day when Kiro confessed to Isla. That was also the moment when Kiro became the King. Kiro told Isla that someday when the right time comes, he will definitely ask for her hands that
"Are you okay?" I asked Solana, she's been so quiet since earlier. We are at their garden, some servants were cleaning around but Solana was just here beside me pouting while her chin is leaning in the broom she's holding."I can't still forget the story you told me, do you think it is even possible to happen to us? I know mates can be rejected but isn't it the love that will prevail? I can't understand," she frowned so I laughed.I looked at the flowers around me. I remembered that little Yanli who took me to the field that time and showed me his new found friend, the little twilight flower he's been taking care of. I wonder how he is right now, I would like to see him again.I shifted my gaze at Solana. She is still holding the emotions from earlier."It can happen, and maybe it already happened to someone unfortunate." I told her. If she only knew it. "It can't be, right? Because mates are supposed to love each other and not fall in love with somebody else." I shrugged my shoulder
I always asked myself why I needed to experience all of this misfortune when I did nothing wrong. Many want to help me in my journey but I think it was always me who was wrong after all, it was my existence that is not right.If I was still dreaming, can I just go back when I was still nothing and don't pursue myself to be great? Back when I was still selfish, back when I was still a child.‘Can I come back?’“Analisse…” I am hearing voices. Voices of those people whom I love, their voices who kept on making me believe that I can do it, that I can protect them. But I am just a disappointment."Analisse.” It kept on rotating on my mind, their faces, voices, and their smiles."Analisse!” With that scream, I opened my eyes."Oh my gosh!” There was a person who hugged me. When I looked at her face, I saw Rose.I smiled. I thought I would never see her again, even in my dream, she's still beautiful. I frowned when she started crying. "I thought I would never see you again.” Sobbing in pai
I left the Silver wolf pack without meeting him. And maybe it's good for us both not to see each other again, or maybe in another time. We could open our hearts again for apologies and forgiveness. But now, there is still something we need to do for the packs that we need to protect.“How are you feeling now?" Diane asked me. She couldn't hide her emotions when she saw my mother and I talking. She left the hut so that we could have privacy. However, she could not help but listen, curious about what my life really is. “I am fine, there is a heavy feeling inside me through the years that was released today. Thank you." She's the one who told her where I am. And she knew I needed to talk to my mother, she knew me more than anyone.“No need to thank me. I have done nothing.” I chuckled when she rolled her eyes. Maybe she thinks that way, but for me, her support is the most important thing.I also made a proper goodbye to Rose and Levi, they are good now. After that, we stayed in the pack
“You got it?" Diane asked.I smiled and showed her the white cloth I was holding. “It will kill her," I said. “We must kill her."“I know." She took it from me as I needed her to hold it tight. “Seems like it was going to be easy but isn't." She chuckled, staring at the only weapon we have. “What about the place?" I asked, we are still inside the pack, in a place where no one would see us easily. Rose is not here, I guess she is still looking for Levi.“I checked every corner, the witch was gone and the people were asking for help. Many children have died, they need support." I nodded my head. At this time, we can't just let this past and not listen to their plea. We are here because we have something to do and that is to help them.“They need to go out now." I told her.“They need their Alpha. Your parents aren't here?" She asked me. I gave her a faint smile. I haven't seen them yet, and even though I will. I still don't know what they will think about seeing me alive. I just want t
We are at the field, one of the pack’s territory, no one is here except for the three of us. I am bothered with the thought that there is someone who we can face in here and kill us before I find Samantha. However, I need to help Rose first on her request. Earlier, she told me that Levi went in here but never came back, it's been 2 days but he is not yet seen by Rose. I know how Rose loved Levi and vice versa, but those two were still young back then and to realize their feelings for each other, I saw it before they knew it. I know they will last for a long time, and the way I can see it, they are not still being open with their feelings with each other until now. I hope they will have a happy ending in this life full of sorrow and pain. I could see in her eyes right now how much she worries about him. I know that she wants to see and is longing for him even though he is always near her. I guess that's how complicated love is. Diane was looking around, trying to catch something in h
“Join hands with me." Analisse was not sure if she would accept the woman's hand but it's the only thing she can find to kill Lucinda, the woman who's bringing disaster to everyone around her.“What would it take me to do this?" Analisse asked, making sure that there is no hidden agenda between the agreement. Of course she's still hoping to see her family and she doesn't just want to be dead while they are still waiting for her, for them to come back. “Your life, not unless you are strong enough to take all the blows she will throw at you, then you can find the hope to live. Don't ever be like me, I was dead and still dead inside after that incident. Continue what I can't accomplish, that's the only thing to do, and you need to do it right this time. She should rest in hell where she truly belongs.” The woman said to her. “What's your name?" Diane asked her. Still curious about the name of the woman in front of them who is willing to help. It's better than nothing, it's better to ha
THIRD PERSON'S POVAnalisse and Diane were stunned to see Nicolas' face at that moment. They have so many questions why their friend who is a wolf is getting scales, like what reptiles have.Analisse began to think of it, and when she realized that it was from the reptile he saw earlier before he ran towards the cave she immediately told it to her friends.“What? So that reptile maybe wants to make you one of them? This is unbelievable, we are getting a pet here.” Diane kept on pissing Nicolas off while the latter was already feeling the burning sensation inside his body. Not minding Diane's words, he tried standing up but his feet were stuck on the ground.“Let me see it." Analisse looked at his feet and she was right, he would not lift it up because of that slimy thing all over his body. “That's gross, really." Diane said, however she tried on helping Nicolas again but to no avail.Analisse then seriously looked outside, making her mind to check it out. “Whatever it is, they want u
I was hugging myself waiting for the time, also waiting for even one of them to wake up. I can feel the need to sleep right now but I won't dare to until I have someone to look around. This world outside is dangerous, we can't trust anything right now except for the three of us.I looked at them and they were in the deepest sleep so I stood up to make myself awake. I roamed my eyes around and saw some fireflies not far from where I was standing. To make myself busy, I decided to follow those fireflies and they are going in the same direction which made me curious. I made my way to them to check what they were coming with. I am getting a little far from them so I stopped, I sighed and was about to go back to those two sleeping guys when I heard someone humming a song, it's a woman. I decided to remain hidden in a tree not far from her and take a look."Hmm." She continues humming, she's not aware of my presence since I kept hiding it. "Would they still remember me, huh Sky?" She asked
I looked at Timothy while he was playing around, I smiled when he waved his hands at me. He looks so cute, I can't imagine I will leave him right now. I will not see him for days or even months. My smile became a sad one thinking that it's not a guarantee that I will be back here. I can't let my son be in danger, especially right now that Lucinda will never leave us after knowing the book is inside this pack.I still have to find Ruby and Eve who have been carrying that book, I don't want anything to happen to them either. They are part of the pack and they are my family. "Be good to daddy okay?" I told him when he hugged me. He is as sweet as his dad.I will miss him."I am always good momma." He pouted his lips which made him cute even more. His cheeks were so fluffy, even his voice was a music to my ears. I can't leave him for a day, but now I will need to go without him with me. "Of course you are." I kissed him before letting him play with other children. I saw Nicolas coming to
"What are your plans then?" Diane asked me. After going to the lake, I told Sebastian that I will be seeing Diane. We rested there for some hours and enjoyed ourselves, for some hours I was able to forget the bad things happening around me but of course at the end of the day, we can just run away. I need to face them and not let them win against me."I will look for that thing, whatever it is and no matter what it takes, even if it means conquering the whole world I will do it. Just to make him free from that illness he was feeling since when he was young, he can't just tell me that he was used to feeling that because I am not. And I will never get used to seeing him in pain." I told her. She nodded her head at me. I know she understands what I am telling her right now. "I know. I know. I will help you." I smiled at her."Thank you.""Let's continue with the book you are saying, it's still inside the library right?" I shook my head."No, it's inside Healers Pier right now. Ruby has b
