Chapter 022Myra’s point of view I spent the next few hours before dinner in my room getting to know Linda better, and a bit more about Lisa. I needed to know if she’s someone I have to worry about or discard. I didn’t see Lucas till I went down for dinner where I met him seated already at the dinette set. His face lit up at the sight of me. “Mon Diamant, how are you?” He greeted with an unusual enthusiasm, patting the space near him for me to come occupy. I’m glad he’s back and around, but my earlier encounter with Lisa persecute my peace of mind. Especially after everything I learnt about her from Linda, she’s so not to be discarded. He was quick to notice my depleted energy as the zeal on his face watered down to concern, “What’s wrong with you? Are you alright, love?” He grilled with a matching tone. I pondered whether I should tell him about Lisa, or this is something I can deal with myself. ‘I suggest you tell him about it, after all he’s the one she’s threatening us to l
Chapter 023Lucas’ point of view We spent the next few minutes in the same position, our bodies merged and arms flayed around each other.Things are going too slow for us, she needed to trust me just like I needed to trust her and it was only right I take the first initiative. “I lost both of my parents when I was kid too,” she spoke into the silence and a grin smacked on my face. Just what I wanted, for her to trust me too and share her trauma with me. Instead she went silent, hanged on her last word as her face buried deeper into my chest. “I guess what I want you to know now is that we have each other. That I promise never to leave you and always be by your side from this moment onward, alright?” That wasn’t what I expected but it was better and I gladly accepted it. I gently pulled us apart so I could stare into her face. “Mon Diamant,” I called, lowering the base of my voice to sound super thick and sultry, a soft smile lined on my lips. I gripped both of her shoulder with
Chapter 24 Logan’s point of view Two and a half weeks since I buried my mom and my aunt, courtesy of the Alpha King’s feat. He’s taken away much of the things I love and adore. But not anymore. For the past few days I’ve trained myself better to operate my abilities, I could cast mind illusions now and do so much more. I believe myself to be ready to go for what’s mine. My sister was still around and yet to return back to the city, she spent most of her days convincing me to lay off my plans to target the Alpha King or try saving Myra, but all to no avail. I was adamant and stubborn about it. I was in my office going over some pack related issues when the door opened and my sister came in with my father. I heaved a groan at the sight of their presence, I could really use a day off without their constant pester to change my already made-up mind. I’m getting Myra back, even if it means going after the Alpha King. Simple as that. They need to fucking accept that fact. “Grea
Chapter 025Myra’s point of view Could life get any better? More than two weeks in and glee is far too dinky to depict my constant mood, serviced by who else if not my very own extraordinaire of a mate. He is the best. He is everything. I will never stop repeating how much he’s all I’ve ever asked for. Life has just been good to me ever since I met him. I trust him now, so much I’m willing to let him in on my past and take our relationship to the next level. I was uncertain and scared before, but now he’s proven every part of me that he can be trusted. After the night we had together on the terrace where he opened up to me and I struggled to do the same. I really was going to but chickened out at the last second. What would he think of me if he knew I was bullied and abused all through my life? That I never for once tried standing up for myself? It wasn’t like I was weak or the likes, there was just no point in doing it. I can’t possibly fight or go against everyone in the pack
Chapter 026 Myra’s point of view I bursted into a boisterous laughter. He looked dead serious and that just added more to the amusement of the whole situation. Who is he here to take home or save? Is he okay mentally or just point-black crazy ?“Can you repeat yourself?” I quested, the laughter in my tone dying down. “I said-“ “And after you do that, tell me you can hear yourself and what you sound like. Okay?” His mouth remained opened but no words came out. He sighed, glancing at his bitch in crime before his eyes came back to me. “I think it’ll be better if I just show you.” Before I could figure out what he meant by that, he closed the distance separating and latched a hold onto my wrist and the rest went void. I didn’t know how but I watched my whole surroundings transformed into a nexus space that has only me and Logan present at the base. Everywhere had become stark white and pointless, and before I could draw the moment in better the light space shadowed into darkness.
Chapter 027Logan’s point of view Making it here wasn’t easy but we thrived. And now I’m in the same room with my soulmate and she’s refusing to see the truth. The mate she’s all happy about is a monster and wanted no good for her, how is she not seeing that? That all I desire is the opposite, I actually want only her happiness and for her to be safe. I’ll always regret hurting her, and I’ll spend the rest of eternity making it up to her. Before the maid went out, I altered her mind to make her believe Myra is fine and doesn’t need her mate’s attention like she had suggested just like I made her believe she couldn’t see us and we weren’t there. That has been how we made it safely into this palace, although not everyone is susceptible to my ability, but most were and that’s a leverage. “I don’t want to talk to you, Logan, or want you to care about my safety, no. What I want from you is to leave me alone, if you care about me like you claimed then you’ll stay the fuck away from me
Chapter 028Myra’s point of view I gaped in pure awe, eyes leaned still on the spiky crystal shaped at the side of his neck, the exact same shape and size I have on my own neck; and at the same spot. I actually never thought or believed that I was marked when I found out because I should have knew, but then most of my days in Crystal Moon were spent doing this or the other, I never had any time for myself there. However, when I arrived here I got the freedom I’ve always wanted and had all the time in the world. I’ve seen myself more than I can count in the mirror and never have I ever sighted this mark until after I got terribly sick and the lady Lucas took me to meet told me about it, only then did I came back home and checked myself in the mirror thoroughly to see the mark on my neck. “What do you mean your birthmark?” My voice cut into the silence, my gaze leering off the mark and straight into Logan’s face. “It’s my birthmark, I never marked you, you do know for me to mark y
Chapter 029Myra’s point of view My day receded too soon after my brief bump-in with Lisa. Since then she’d been the sole operator of my scattered mind. I yearned to know her actual relationship with Lucas, it was more than each of them told me it is. On Lucas’ part, it’s more than the King and subject liaison, and on Lisa’s side; hers is just plain confusing to put a term on. Is she attracted to Lucas and wanted her for herself? Or is she an ex of his he dumped right after he met me? Too many questions and complicated theories on Lisa’s part. But what I do know is that there is something beyond a nominal relationship between the both of them. Linda didn’t swing by until many hours after, she came with her usuals. Assorted fruits and a wine, a beverage I’ve come to like so much ever since I tasted the reddish one. She wasn’t here with me right now because she’d craved water instead of wine and decided to go get a bottle for herself. She’s bound to spend some time with me every t
Chapter 094Myra’s point of view So Logan explained to us on how he thinks Deena can help. Deena told him her ability ranged more than just shapeshifting, turns out she can steal a whole identity and get away with it. All she has to do is touch her victim, and she can steal that person’s identity. Also whenever she’s under the face of whoever she wants to be, the person’s memories, criterions, and everything else are at her mercy to utilize. When I learnt this about her, it didn’t take me long to figure that she must have been the one who came to me as Madeleine, Lucas’s sister and told me she’s ready to work with me. There was a feel around her back then, I just knew it wasn’t Madeleine, so I tested her and she failed miserably. I just hope she wouldn’t falter against the Lucas, cause she was unable to fool me as Madeleine, what’s the chance that she’d be able to fool the Alpha King then? I gave her back her power as planned, and she was out of here the next second to go deal w
Chapter 093Logan’s point of view “Argh!” I jerked out of position when Myra popped out of nowhere, looking all paled like she’s just seen a ghost. “What the fuck? How? Why?!” That was unexpected and creepy. “Logan you were right,” she said as she walked over to where I was, panic written all over her face as she paced around in anxiousness. “Right about what?” I quizzed in confusion. Was she not able to warp the Alpha King like she intended? Worse, is he now after her? Panic slowly rose inside of me too. “Calm down and explain to me. What happened with him?” I urged as I grabbed her shoulder to steady her. “My powers didn’t work on him, he was going to hurt me because he thought I wanted to kill him, he looked so scary and his hands were like heavy rocks placed on me when he touched me. I couldn’t run, it’s like my feet were trapped and frozen. It was really scary, I thought I was going to die all over again.” Sympathy drove over my nerves as her words sank in, I could only ima
Chapter 092 Myra’s point of view I didn’t know where I’ll find Lucas but I know the two places to begin my search. It was his office and his chamber, so I decided to check out his office first. Wasn’t it even absurd? We’re mated, yet share no mystical connection, no special bond, nothing at all. It definitely wasn’t weird to him, but it should have been to me. Salome might have always suspected him, but she too warmed up to him when we first met him. She nearly went into heat even at the sight of him valuing us and protecting us. We really had thought he was our happy ending, big jokes on us. Unlike Lucas, I was able locate Logan at the shift of my nose. His scent was strong and magnetic. That’s how your mate should scent. However, with Lucas I can’t even remember what he scented like when I first met him. I use to think it’s because he hasn’t marked me yet, but now I know better. I was never his, he was never mine, he wasn’t the savior I thought he was neither was he my knigh
Chapter 091 Logan’s point of view It was nearly impossible for me to let Myra go confront the Alpha King alone and all by herself. Although it shouldn’t be, given the phenomenal feats she recently demonstrated.I went back inside to Deena. She was still unconscious and out on the floor, so I transported her to the bed. Now that I’m fine, she and I needs to have long talk. She needs to understand that I can’t be hers, that her fantasy of the both of us as endgame was never going to happen. Laid on the bed now with me by her side, I couldn’t resist the urge to read her memories and find out exactly how she became a shifter wolf. I knew what she told me earlier wasn’t anything near the truth. I could also use the opportunity to learn all about her recent escapades. I made physical contact with her as I snapped my eyes close. She’s no longer a werewolf, Myra must have done something to her. It was the first thing I noticed when I got my juice back, her head was completely silent. W
Chapter 090Myra’s point of view “How are you alive?” I know there’s no way Lucas would spare him, so something must have happened. “There is a lot to explain, to talk about, but I also have to ask you the same question. How are you alive?” I noticed how still he was, like there was no movement in his body or anywhere at all. He couldn’t even move his face to look at me very well, rather has his eyes rolled to the side where I’ve seated. “Are you okay? Can you move?” I tried to lift his hand when he gasped out loud in agony. Oops! “Sorry, sorry, I had no idea. I’ll tell you all about mine, but first how’d you end up here?” My brows raised in curiosity. His gaze flicked over to Deena. What about her? Don’t tell me that witch was the one who saved him! Uh-uh. “She saved me.” Welp! Just the one thing I didn’t want to hear. “Turns out she never ran away like I thought she did, instead she became a shapeshifter who shifted into someone connected to this palace and stayed here with
Chapter 089 Lucas’s point of view Myra is not dead, but I have her lifeless body incarcerated in her room, spelled and protected. I didn’t want her dead, because I never believed she’s gone. And I was right later on. However, what was it I witnessed with her death? I snapped her neck, and could hear as her heart stopped beating. The heart never drummed back to life, throughout the time I took her to her room, and spent literal hours by her side hoping she’d wake up miraculously. The whole day passed and she never did, I was forced to believe that she’s indeed dead and I have to bring her back to life anyway I can.That was what brought me to this moment, where I’d just rounded up my meeting with death and got back in my body. The mage stared at me in anticipation to let him know how it all went, to narrate what happened while he was out. I could read it all on his face. “So if death doesn’t have my mate’s soul, then who does? Death claims to me that she isn’t dead. So tell me w
Chapter 088 Myra’s point of view I had to rush things with Zilahna and Selene. Soon enough I was placed into the pod that is to transport my consciousness back to my body down on earth. “I’ll be with you soon.” Was Selene’s parting words to me as she opened up the portal. I’m suppose to wake up on my body as soon as I step through the cosmic space. I didn’t know what to say so I just nodded back at her. Zilahna didn’t come here with us, she just brewed the potion as quickly as she could and handed it over to me. I heaved a deep breath as I looked around me for the last time. “Here comes nothing,” I said to myself before I jumped into the portal and everything went blank. Cold. Extremely cold. My body tinged with ice, crusted with severe cold. I forced my frigid eyes to blinked open only to witness a literal snow showering my room in a minimal blur. This is my room. I’m in my room. Wait so Lucas didn’t bury me? I thought he would. Why didn’t he? If it’s not over five days or s
Chapter 087 Logan’s point of view Deena simply laughed at my questions and never gave a formal answer. She now knew I’m in suspicion of her intentions. “That’s enough grilling. You just woke up, let’s talk about why you nearly died instead. I still don’t wanna think about your fate if I wasn’t around.” She pouted at me.I caught on her attempt to change the subject. I need to get out of here: I need to know what happened to Myra, is she really dead? That shouldn’t be possible because our mate bond is pulsing and still alive, meaning she might not be dead like I thought she was. I still am unable to feel my wolf, but the connection between us was slowly coming back. I sought my stiffened body to motion, but slammed back into bed when a painful force hit my system and pressure me back on pause. “I need to get out of here!” I voiced out in desperation. “What’s wrong with me?” I should have healed up by now. What did the Alpha King do to me? I know he stole my powers and nearly ki
Chapter 086Myra’s point of view My head stormed with a past I wasn’t familiar with, yet I felt connected to the memories. Like they were indeed mine. They might be new, but felt extremely old, as though it’s always been there. In my head, hidden away from the webs of my brain and knowledge. Now however, I sat still and relive days, moments, and memories that weren’t mine at once. Except they were now mine. Myself is who I see as the main character of those memories. How is that possible? Looks like they were right about the spirit I’m one with. But it’s still unbelievable, how can I be twined with a goddess’s spirit of all spirits that is there to merge with. Other than her memories that swarmed through my brain right now, I’d say I don’t feel connected to her at all. Perhaps I do when I was a werewolf, and she was my loyal companion, wolf, the friend I’ve always needed to pull through my darkest days. “I have to go,” I voiced out in a sudden burst as I stood up abruptly and ma
