Elisabeth's point of view:
Every single birthday during my last nineteen years, my brother used to come in person to celebrate my birthdays along with me. Every single birthday, he used to tell me something about our mother and the supernatural world.
I still remember the first time he started talking to me about her, the first time he told me that we're brother and sister and that John and Tina are just taking care of me.
I was just ten years old back then, I should've freaked out, but I didn't. Somehow, I have never felt that I was in the right place, not to mention that I've always felt a weird connection between me and the stranger who always showed up on my birthdays.
Four years later, I was introduced to the supernatural world by Logan, and it was our first little secret to keep between us. Curiosity allowed me to keep looking for the truth about werewolves, vampires, and other creatures such as witches, sirens, and hybrids.
While looking, I found out about the mate bond, which explains a lot about why my mom left Logan's dad and picked up my father's side.
A mating bond isn't simply something that a Lycan/werewolf can control or change, your mate is supposed to be your other half.
Once they come across each other they would instantly feel the bond, and they won't be able to leave each other. They can see through their souls just by looking into each other's eyes, feel electricity once they touch each other, also can share thoughts, and read each other's mind once the mating is complete.
Sure the rejection still exists, but so far no one could've successfully rejected their own mates, it's more like giving up on your own soul.
Most werewolves may lose their lives due to horrible pain if by bad luck their mates die before them.
Lycans are not the same. They may lose their sanity, or get into endless pain and deep depression, which is worse than death.
Werewolves can have either a werewolf's mate or a human mate, while a Lycan mate can be either a Lycan, werewolf, or a human, not more nor less.
Well, it seems that my parents were an exception and so am I.
Though I was able to collect some helpful pieces of information, I still need Login to confirm it with me. I mean you can't believe everything that comes on the net or even in books.
For my good luck, it happened that I'm the birthday girl and today I'll be meeting my brother.
Well, it was too soon to celebrate what didn't occur yet.
One hour left before the end of the day and Logan still did not show up, he never misses my birthdays, unless something bad happens.
The moment I started freaking out, a cool breeze of air hit me while I was sitting in the middle of the bed. It was him, 'Logan', he was finally here.
''Logan!'' I screamed, jumping on him.'' For a while, I believed you were not coming. Where have you been? And what took you so long...?''
Before I could finish what I was saying, he cut me off '' I'm late because I wanted to give you this''
He handed me a beautiful little red box. I couldn't make any sound because I was dumbfounded by the beautiful box that was in the middle of my hands.
''Open it'' he uttered while looking deeply into my eyes, while a hint of pride ran in between them.
I opened the box and said 'My oh my!’. It was the best necklace with a moon shape I've ever seen in my entire life, it was also accompanied by a lot of pictures of my mom.
''Let me help you,'' Logan announced while helping me to put the necklace on my neck.
'' wow! It's really beautiful!'' I said while looking at my reflection in the mirror.
''Close your eyes, then touch the necklace moon with one of your hands, do not open your eyes until it's over.'' He announces causing me to question him not knowing what he meant ''What do you mean by until it's over?''
'' Just do as I say, and everything will be alright, just trust me''.
I did as he said, and the moment my eyes were closed and I touched the moon in my necklace. Weirdly and without further explanation, I found myself in a vast garden.
A young girl around fourteen to fifteen years old was running and laughing along with a boy the same age as her.
''Diana !! Stop, come over here... '' Screamed the young boy while running after the girl that I guess is my mom from a young age.
'' Not happening William, catch me if you can.'' She giggled while running.
She was beyond beautiful, you can tell from the first look that we looked like each other.
The only difference between them is the eyes, she has deep green forest eyes surrounded by long black lashes, the same as Logan's eyes.
The way she was laughing and teasing the other boy shows how close they were to each other.
About the boy, I guess his name is William; he seems kinda familiar.
Lost in my thoughts when something strong pulled me out of the actual world. When I opened my eyes, I couldn't help but notice a sad smile on Logan's face.
''You miss her, do you?'' I questioned him, and he answered me. '' She wanted you to have the necklace exactly on your twentieth birthday''.
''What do you mean by that? Did she know that she was going to die?'' I wondered while tears were running non-stop from my eyes.
'' She loved you too much even before your birth, and it was her choice.'' He answered while trying to look calm as much as he could, but that wasn't enough for me.
'' What exactly was the choice she made?" I was kind of sure what choice he was talking about, but I needed to hear his own answer.
'' She knew that you both can't make it together alive, she picked you because she believed in you and wanted you to live''.
I threw myself in his arms and cried harder than I ever did.
''She shouldn't, I'm worthless, just a waste of space and air. At least she ... ''
He cut me off while tightening his hold on me.
'' You're just like her, beautiful, smart, and wonderful... I love you, little sister, just the way you are.' he added.
'' The necklace on your neck is a gift from Diana, it holds all her life memories. She wanted you to have it because she cared about you, she loved you, and I believe that if she was still among us, she would probably be proud of you''.
Elisabeth's point of view: The night went so fast that I didn't know how the sun was already shining all over the house. It feels like whenever we're together, I stop having recognition for the time. But since it's already morning, I suggested making a house-made breakfast for both of us. I went down to the kitchen and made two Spanish egg sandwiches, along with two cups of coffee. I'm not good at cooking at all, but still, I know some tricks. When I was eighteen, I moved on to live alone. I couldn't support another year with my foster parents. Well, I'm technically jobless and I don't have money. Lucky me, my brother forced me to accept his help until I found a better way to count on myself. While having breakfast, we chit-chatted a bit, and we also changed some jokes about our daily life. I told my brother some of my stories from high school, college, and even about how messed up I was whenever I saw the boy I was crushing on. He seemed to enjoy each and every one of my storie
Elisabeth's point of view: I felt all kinds of connections and love toward him the moment my eyes fell on his eyes. It's as if we have known each other for years, though it was my first time seeing him. It was like I finally found my other lost soul part. At first, I lost all my senses; I could not think or see anything but him, but he seemed like he was saying something. At first, I couldn't figure out what he was saying or what was going on at that time. But then it all started to make sense; he was my mate, and he seemed to not like it. I wasn't fully in control of my feelings nor my existence back then, especially when he began destroying every single thing that came into his sight or his way. I used all of my power to gain control over myself and to not show my fear of him. After he finished, I noticed that he was moving toward me. At the right moment, Logan jumps in between both of us, but he is thrown into the nearby wall. I screamed, not being able to handle seeing my br
Elizabeth's point of view: As I opened the door of his room, I was surprised by the presence of a woman. The woman was kind of familiar, I do remember that she was sitting next to him in the hall. "Not true, Selena! My Lycan wants her, but I only want you. I wouldn't even think about changing you to any female Lycan. How about nothing but a human girl?" He explained before crushing his lips on hers in a very passionate kiss. I hardly stopped myself from crying in front of him the day before, but now, I don't know how to stop the tears in my eyes. The reason why I decided to run back from where I came before I became not only a human but a pathetic human girl. I went back to the room I was in and started packing my luggage while crying hard. I am not going to stay here for another minute. Pain ran through my entire body while I was thinking about how foolish I am. He never loved me and He’ll never love me. Yet, he gave himself the right to play me. I can't believe that I gave my
Liam's point of view: While sitting in my office dealing with some serious matters, Albert's voice knocks me out of my business. '' They're here. Logan and his sister are here!'' I looked up in his direction for a while, then got myself back to work. '' What?!! Aren't you excited to meet her? 'The hybrid' Diana's daughter!!'' He wondered, and I answered him back. '' She's just a human. Why would I care to meet her? Also, the dinner held by the Queen herself in her honor, it's no more than a waste of time in our current situation''. '' We're talking about the daughter of one of the strongest fighters in the entire world. Besides, many people believe that her powers will rise sooner or later. She's the daughter of the two strongest creatures in our world. She can't be just a human after all.'' He stopped for a while then added, ''Besides, she's your best friend's sis...'' I cut him off. " Cut the nonsense ...." Before I could finish my sentence, Logan's presence interrupted me.
Liam's point of view: After running for over three hours in my Lycan form, I finally decided to get back to the palace. Running is the only way for us Lycans to get rid of all fury and anger. You may ask, why the hell would I be angry? Well, I've just found out that my mate - The one I've been waiting for hundreds of years, is not just a human, but she's the most pathetic creature in the entire world. Her birth was such a waste of Diana's life. When I came back, I went right away to my room, threw my exhausted body into the bed, and tried to sleep. I was hoping to forget about all that happened tonight. As I was about to close my eyes, the whole scene of what happened when we met hours ago - for the first time - started to play into my view as if it was a movie. The way she was looking at me, the tears that she was holding. Not to mention the look of hurt in her eyes, it all affected me while it shouldn't. I mean, what? Did she really expect that I would fall for her love at fi
Liam's point of view:"You were with her, your mate," she says.Her voice was a bit broken. "Now that you have found your mate, I don't think you still need me anymore.Is it so?" she added, and I found myself forced to make her feel better.After all, she is Sir Rowan's only child and my future chosen mate."Not true, Selena, you are my queen.My Lycan wants her, but I only want you," I explained, then I crushed my lips on hers.She's not as good as my mate, but I can't lose a strong ally like Sir Rowan.While kissing her, a small cry took me off guard, but no one was there, and all that was left was some smell from my beautiful mate.She was here, and I was so busy dealing with Selena that I di
Liam's point of view:"... What's wrong with you?!! If you don't want her, then leave her." Logan utters while trying to hold himself. "She's the only person I have in this world, and I can't let you hurt her anymore."I kept quiet for a while, then I admitted to him honestly,"I care about her, too. It's not like I've known her since forever, but this fucking mate pull is doing crazy things to me. Everything about her is driving me out of my mind."'I looked at him, and he was looking at me weirdly as if I had grown two heads instead of one. He probably wasn't believing me, but I don't blame him for that. I wouldn't believe myself if I was him, and I don't even believe that I'm saying this to him.I stopped for a while, then I added, "She would be in danger if I let her go, and she would be in more danger if I kept her with me. I'm lost and I don't know what to do."He was about to say something when the noise of glass shattering came
Liam's point of view: I went directly toward my room, not feeling that I wanted to meet anyone at the right moment. I don't know how to explain it, but she's not dead, nor alive. What happened today is nearly impossible to believe. I swear that the heartbeat from earlier was hers/ Even if I want to claim that it is all my imagination, it would still be hard to believe. I mean, how about the cut in her throat? If she's dead, normally she can't heal herself. I swear something weird is up right now. I was lost in my thoughts until the door burst open, and guess who was standing on the other side of the door - it was Logan. I didn't know what to say or do at the moment. For some unknown reason, I was glad that he was here. The look in his eyes gives the feeling that he had something in mind. I guess that he'll have to make the first move, and that's exactly what happened. As soon as he opened the door, he went straight toward me and threw a punch in my face, then he stopped, waitin
Albert's point of view: It’s been a week since my brother and his mate escaped my hold, they were one step away from death. If only luck were by my side, I would’ve been a king to the whole werewolves and Lycans' kingdom. Agatha’s - the head of witches is dead too, though she was annoying, she was an ally. Unlike her daughter, who’s picking my brother’s side. If only I could have her by my side, then things would’ve had another path. To my luck, not everyone is happy about the new heir, my mother was able to convince some of these witches and warlocks to join our movement. As we promise them protection from vampires and help to take Sebil out of her mother's throne. For me, I decided to go back to Russia, where my rogue kingdom stands. It’s true, all the rogues that were attacking the palace were mine – my people. And we’re the ones to rule the entire kingdom. I’m not fighting behind doors anymore, I want my throne, and I’ll only have it thanks to Elisabeth. She’s soon-to-be my ma
Elisabeth's point of view:I pushed myself away from Evanora, and before I reached outside the room - Logan tried to stop me again.“Move!” I ordered him, but he seemed not to care about what I’m saying.“Not now Elisabeth, let’s wait for a while…” I cut him off, not caring about his nonsense.“Why shall I wait… my mate needs me as much as I need him, and we shall be by each other's side.” I was talking while passing through him and following my mate's lovely scent.Well, I should’ve listened to my brotherI kept following Liam’s scent until I found myself in what seemed to be the hospital wing… Not caring about who was there; I burst into the room where my mate was laying.His beautiful figure caught my eyes, yet he wasn’t awake… He was still unconscious. Before I could reach his bed, someone pushed me away…“Stay away from him, you creepy monster!” I turn to be faced by a very furious Queen - Queen Sophie. Next to her were standing the king, Selina, and her father. They were all by
Elisabeth's point of viewJust as I opened my eyes, it took me a while to really feel that I am finally awake. Lost in my thought until I heard someone screaming, she’s awake – she’s awake …Wait … who’s awake? Ah …! It’s me. Where am I? And who’s waiting for me to wake up?At the same time, while I was wondering, Logan and his mate burst into the room I was in, answering all the questions that were roaming inside my head.It was my first time being in the room I woke up in, but the room felt totally familiar to me – it also gives me that déjà vu sort of feeling.A divine smell crossed my nose that made me instantly feel safe and secure, it was Liam’s smell… It seems that I was in his room lying on his bed, meaning that I’m at the new Lycans' palace right?The beautiful moment did not last for too long, since I started panicking while remembering what exactly happened when we were in New Orleans.Unconsciously, I left my exhausted body up while trying to search for my mate, it was nor
Elisabeth's point of view:With a broken heart, I was sitting, my legs crossed as I was trying to convince myself that everything would be alright. My head was down and so was my spirit, nothing seems the same as before.It’s been a week since the blood moon ceremony, a lot has changed and nothing will be back to the usual – Not for anyone, not for me, nor for my mate…My mate - Liam … Only the mention of his name brooks my heart into pieces, it’s all my mistake. I took his room and made it mine - at least it helps to keep me safe for now… Safe from whom? Safe from myself.It all happened because of me, and I can hide the truth no more – It seems that I’m a curse after all.Queen Sophia’s words keep on echoing inside my head, and I can’t blame her – After all, I caused everything by myself.“You are a curse… Nothing good came with you… He was about to be a king, a great one. But you destroyed everything, and I shall do the same to you.”Her threads did nothing to my heart, but the wo
Elisabeth's point of view:As for what Evanora said, Agatha was not planning to commit to her promise. With a mean smile on her face, she told us."You're in no oppression to make decisions. Bring them into the cell and get them both ready for tonight's ceremony."She said while smiling as if she was holding the whole world in between her hands. Little did she know about what we were having for her tonight..................After thinking, the preparations for tonight's ceremony were not that bad after all, I mean, the witches helped us to shower with milk and red followers. You know, it was that kind of shower that you see in movies.Did I mention the white dress… Well, there was a wonderful white short dress waiting for me – and only me to wear.Everything was perfectly amazing. It was as if they were preparing us for that sort of traditional wedding type. The only difference was that they were preparing us to get killed, not to a wedding ceremony.You might wonder why someone who'
Elisabeth's point of view:I tried to hurry myself over to free him out, but my hand passed through him as if I was a ghost by his side.I breathed in and out as a sign of relief, then I told myself, "It's just a dream…"Unexpectedly, Agatha's voice cut me off. "It's not just a dream…" My blood started running cold as she was speaking."Your mate is here, in front of you… He's here that way, only because of you."Silence consumed us all, but not until Agatha spoke again."He wanted to save you no matter what it cost … It seemed that - the cold heart of the future Lycan's alpha king - is not cold after all, it seemed that his heart was warm for you, isn't it lovely?"At this point, I wasn't able to think or register anything from what was going on next to me. I was broking, lost, and way too hurt… Not physically, but emotionally.All these times I was trying to hurt him, take revenge on him, make him lose all and everything he desired.Yet, he's here because of me and for me. He's givi
Liam's point of view:"You … How dare you?" I shouted at him, "This is too much for revenge." I didn't know she was your mate."He chuckled before he said "You can have her if you want, I don't care about her anymore... I only want my throne … BROTHER!"….My world was turned upside down, the moment he called me brother, the way he spelled the exact brother word was full of hatred. All those times we laughed together, we cried together, fought by the same side. All these times and everything were all fake. I don't know how or how to feel. But for sure, it all started making sense to me. "It was you all the time … you! The funny thing is that I've always loved you as a brother. Now that you're my real brother, I can say that I still feel the same." I told him honestly."That must've broken my heart, I suppose?" He asked sarcastically."If you are half of the man you're pretending to be, you would have to fight like a real man … Not to hide behind witches," I shouted at him while expec
Albert's point of view:"Wait … what? It has to, it should work. My all and everything is relying on it. " I shout at her "I am at the point where there is no going back. This has to work … Can't you find another witch to replace her." I asked her, but she did not answer me for a while, but then she shouted at me."It's not that simple… There are some conditions for the witch to be able to make the sacrifice."She was explaining, but I cut her off "Conditions like what?"…."First: The witch sacrificing herself shall be one of Salem's lines, and due to the witch hunt organized in early 1692 it is unlikely to find anyone around. Not to mention that they all intend to hide their origins and change their family name."Second: She also has to be a virgin, the witch surfacing herself. The witches shall not be touched by any sort of man.Last: She has to link to the hybrid, and let me tell you that it took us about three months to finally be able to link both Elisabeth and Evanora together.
Albert's point of view:I was diving deep into such a beautiful dream; it was dark, and I was alone. No one was there to break my piece, the piece I was in. But the red door was there in front of me.The exact door was always sort of like what I can describe with the hell to me. That's why I closed it, but it was open now.The human girl was my first crime. I never want to do it, but I have to. She needed to die so that I would be here today. Otherwise, I will never be able to take what's mine.I killed my old self when I killed that girl. There was never going to be a way back…It was raining blood on me; storms and thunder were hitting as hard as possible. It was as if they were celebrating a ceremony held by my pain. Not to mention the lightning that was setting fire around me, causing everything to burn into ashes. I run, trying to avoid all the surrounding things.The screams of the girl, the sound of the bloody rains along with thunder, the lightning that was trying to turn me i
