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 030Lucas’ point of view My day wasn’t going great at all. In fact, it gets messier. The trouble with Neil wasn’t going away and was rather getting bigger, more complicated than before and it’s catching up fast with me. Neil was returning home today because he’s incapable and needs external help. The help I’ve been trying to get ever since I walked into this office. My personal witch said for me to stand a chance against Madeleine’s plan, the Blue Moon must have shone and myself rebranded. Only then can I stand against her plan, the plan I have absolute no idea of, except that it’s for me and to take me down. I was stressed I had to call in Lisa to get me off and retrieve my focus. She left like two hours ago and the frustration she came to take away was beginning to eat back into me.I reached out to the most powerful psychic out there to find out all about Madeleine’s plan, and all I got from her was it’s dangerous and seeks my end. Even from the seers, they all had the
Chapter 031Myra’s point of view It was unlike I’ve ever witnessed. In all my darkest days and moments with Logan and everyone at my home pack, none has ever effected me this way or this much. It was horrific, watching his eyes go dark into a mysterious hue filled with danger. His gaze wrapped me up like a prey he wanted to pounce on. I saw it in his eyes and I wish I didn’t. The pleasure that curled I his eyes when he noticed how scared I’ve gotten, he reveled in my discomfort. And as if that wasn’t enough, he tried to kill me! Was he on something? Is he a sick man? I dazzled in multiple theories to why he’d wanted to hurt me. It’s been over an hour and I’ve successfully came up with nothing. I just remain seated by my bed hoping seriously that there’s no truth to what Logan said about him. He doesn’t seem like it, I trust him now. He won’t hurt me, he cares for me, he loves me and he would never hurt me. ‘You’re not too sure are you?’ Salome threw at me rhetorically. I wante
Chapter 032Logan’s point of view Deena rushed into the room in broad turbulence, dread etched all over her face as she ran to me. “Logan we’re screwed, we’re fucking screwed, Logan!” She cried in pure panic as she held my wrists, “We need to leave, we need to go right now.” She made to drag me up. I withdrew her hold and held her back instead, “What’s going on? What happened?” I asked, my brows furrowed in confusion. We’d retire to our room here at the guest house when she requested me to locate Myra’s room for her, she’d said she wanted to go talk and convince her further, and seeing the little impact her words had on her back at the first room we met her; I thought why not. Perhaps Myra might listen to her if she has something good to say. So I had a maid lead her to Myra, and hoped for a positive response. “Myra is not to be saved, she’s not the Myra we know or want to know again, we have to leave her and let her go, Logan. Pleaseeeeee,” she stretched on the word, her eyes w
Chapter 033Myra’s point of view Like it happened back in his office, the curiosity to sneak around Lucas’s privacy descended and I just couldn’t ignore. I thought I knew him, but after what nearly happened in my room; I might be totally wrong. I didn’t even know where to search or what exactly I’m searching for. His chamber is one hell of a suite, large and spacey it could pass for a living room itself. It’s the King’s chamber, I should expect nothing less. I went straight for his closet, if he’s hiding something in here, my gut says that would be the place he keeps the secret. I stepped into the large room he created for his closet, myriads of shirts hanged to a shelf were on a long roll. A tiny space wide enough to fit most humans passed through each of the rolls vertically and I marched down each looking for skeletons. So far there was nothing through the first roll, the second, and there were five in total. However, when I arrived at the third one, right at the end of the r
Chapter 034Lucas’ point of view It’s been over an hour since I sent a maid to go get Myra, and none of them has returned yet for us to begin dinner. Either Myra is fine but still bothered by the earlier incident that happened between us, or she’s hurt and might need my urgent attention. However, I have a feeling it’s the former not the latter. I dragged my chair back as I pushed to my feet, I should go get her myself. The strides to her room weren’t that much and long cause it took me less than a minute to arrive by her door, I placed a gentle knock when my body lingered outside her boundary. Seconds ticked by and there was no response, I banged another knock and when I saw the door wasn’t opening I invited myself in. I looked around and the room was empty but sound was coming from the shower, she must be in bathroom and didn’t hear my knocks. Barely a second later I’ve invited myself in she came out moistened from the shower with her white towel delicately wrapped around her
Chapter 035Myra’s point of view “That’s a nice little story you’ve got there brother,” A feminine voice commented, and our attention drilled towards the voice. A lady came into sight, tall with long silky blood-red hair, a color that matched her eyes and the gloss smeared on her lips. “Brother…?” My sense snapped back to the title attached to her comment, she just called Lucas her bother. The shock was yet to settle in fully when she marched forward and stretched out her palm for me to take, “I’m Madeleine, your elder sister in law, pleasure to meet you.” She curved a friendly smile while her eyes rolled around my figure. I left her hand ignored and looked into Lucas’s face, he’s the only one who could possibly tell me I’m not mad and truly right now, a lady is not in front of me claiming to be his sister. Because if I recall correctly, his sister died in a rival between his brother on who should wear the crown. So who the exact fuck is the lady in front of me? “Hmm,” she sou
Chapter 036 Logan’s point of view Though I was left with a stale strength, and a numbed knuckles. I managed to round them off and out defeated. Since I still couldn’t afford the Alpha King knowing that I’m still around, it was heck of a work structuring the minds of the guards he sent to apprehend me. Fortunately, none of them had immunity to my enslavement. So now his men are my men, unbeknownst to him. They’re all going to return to him, and tell him I’m gone and there was no traces of me around the palace or anywhere at all. They’re to keep me updated if the King has any plans in progress for me. I’d drained myself taking care of the men’s situation I needed to rest and let my energy refill. I think I’ve spent more than an hour already seated still on this couch to rest. I need to see Myra and talk to her tonight one more time before I call today a day well lived, but first there’s one person I feel like chatting with. Soon as my wolf was done rejuvenating my
Chapter 100Logan’s point of view We already wasted too much time cremating Linda’s corpse, and collecting her ashes into a jar for Myra to honor. I don’t know much about her, but it seems like she had a great relationship with Myra. A strong and deep bond that allowed her death took a huge toll on Myra. It was like she lost her loved ones all over again. Though she tried to keep a vibrant smile and surface, but I could see through it all and know just how hard she’s hurting. I wish I could share from her pain to ease her grief, but it’s impossible and I can only console her like I’ve been doing for the past couple of hours. We made our way down to the palace’s control room, where Myra discovered a secret passage that brought out an elevator which transported us underground. We had no idea what to expect or see, but as soon as the elevator dinged open inside the secret hideaway, we came face to fist with three guards. I instantly went into their minds and mentally slam down the
Chapter 099 Lucas’s point of view So that bastard is still alive. Not below the earth’s ground like I assumed he would be, instead he’s still breathing and somewhere around my mate. ‘You’ve killed your mate, and that girl you’re desperately after is not your mate. But just in case you’ve yet to deduce, I’d be honored to let you know that the universe is working against you, why? Because who you thought is killed and buried few feet under ground is alive and well, plotting to be smarter with you this time, and possibly defeat you,’ my wolf scorned at me, glad at the sudden hit at my plans. I’d name him my greatest enemy if Logan Blackwood had stayed dead. “You should be grateful that you’re the only thing that keeps me connected with the moon, and that I need that connection. If not, I would have save your hatred a peaceful ending and cut us off from each other,” I said back to him before I sent him back to his cage, far off at the back of my mind. I need to think about my next s
Chapter 098 Myra’s point of view “Who are you?” Her eyes shunned with disbelief as she stepped back in retraction and fear. “I’m willing to give you one more chance, heal her and you might earn yourself a pass out of this mess. Refuse to, then face the same fate,” I bargained, hoping deeply she’d change her mind and give us the remedy. Why doesn’t my wishing powers worked on Linda? Or are they gone? “I can’t. The poison inside of her was newly created, she was the victim I tested it on to see the efficiency,” she spoke shakily, her voice roped in anxiety. How could she have been so evil? Testing out a dangerous poison on an innocent victim with no care of what happens to the victim. “You must save her, it’s either you save her or face the same fate,” I sounded more pathetic than threatening. I didn’t want to lose Linda, apart from what she meant to me, she really doesn’t deserve this. I anticipated a positive response from her, but all I got was more whimpers and a full sob bre
Chapter 097Myra’s point of view It was a pretty simple journey to the dungeon when Logan could flipped the mental switch of a creature’s brain off in a quick snap. We left a pile of unconscious bodies in our trail as we arrived at the dungeon where Linda was kept. There was two guards left now securing her prison. “Leave them to me love,” Logan let go of me as focused his gaze on them, probably trying to make them pass out like he’s been doing to the rest we’ve encountered before we arrive here. “Looks like I have to take them out the old fashioned way, they’re fortified against psychic attacks. Can’t shut them down!” Logan explained to me before he went forward to engage the two guards in a brawl. Sometimes I forget he wasn’t just a jerk Alpha back at the pack, he was a trained asshole who was actually in charge of recruiting warriors. He’s a master combatant and I usually forget that because his existence never mattered to me until now. I watched him display his combat skills
Chapter 096Lucas’s point of view How did she learn the truth? From where did she learn the truth? My plan was sailing smoothly, she was mine and no one else’s. I did not expect all to rough up. Where it all started with this bastard mate of hers, I’m glad the fool is dead. He was such a pain to deal with. I just have to figure out a way to keep Myra by my side before the Blue Moon rolls around, and it’s gonna be a hard thing to carry out now that she’s learnt the truth. I did not regret what I did, I did everything to give the both of us a future, the best future. She needs to understand that I’m setting her up for a dream she can never imagine, she would seriously thank me later. ‘Just in case you haven’t noticed, I’m laughing at you,’ my wolf picked the perfect moment to jeer at my misery. Myra suddenly disappeared before I could go into her head, thanks to Logan’s power, I’ve become something more than I was. The way she had escaped my grasp made me wonder what kind of spe
Chapter 095Myra’s point of view “So what do I have here to work with?” Logan had took me inside the room where he sat the both of us down on the bed. Him in a monk position, while I sat in front of him. “I don’t know, what can you work with? You usually find me somehow, and Lucas too. Do I give you something to work with then?” I told him, he has psychically tracked me down more than once and I don’t think he needed something to do it then. So that has me a little confused on why I should give him something to work with in Linda’s case. “You and I grew up together, and are emotionally connected. I was able to track you down mentally with the connection we shared, and was able to infiltrate the Alpha King’s mind cause of the connection he has with you. Now for me to trace Linda down to wherever she is, I’d need something that connects to her, could be an object, a memory, anything at all that has her picture in it. Do you get me?” He explained to me, and I nodded in response.I un
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 093 Logan’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 on
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
