Chapter 52Myra’s point of view Lucas should be asleep at the moment, and that’s an edge to sneak back into his office and gather infos on the Blue Moon thingy. I recalled to the last time I found a file, and was about to flip through when Neil chimed by. He’d stop me that day, and I didn’t bother because Lucas went on to tell me about it. It is now after I’ve realized Lucas’ words cannot be trusted I’ve decided to find out about the event myself. I’d thought he was my knight, but he was a demon on a scheduled date to pounce. I should have known. I should have caught his lies, my wolf is the smart one not me, I’m too gullible, too pathetic and an idiot. He told me the night I met him that he has an abusive father, that he basically grew up in an abusive household. How then did the narrative change towards him being an orphan? A kid who lost his parents to a toxic fight he’d said, and his siblings to a battle of the throne, situations that led him as the sole survivor and the rule
Chapter 053Myra’s point of view Curiosity wouldn’t let me defer the survey of this files till tomorrow and go to sleep instead. The first thing I did as I reached my room was shower, freshen up, and sat down on the bed to read through the papers. Lucas must have had his people clean up the mess made when Lisa stabbed me and left me to rot, cause it was sparkling clean now that I’ve come back.I opened the paper up and my eyes trailed from the heading to the contents scribbled below, I glanced and flipped through the pages, taking my time so I wouldn’t be confused and be of sufficient knowledge. It took me minutes, close to an hour to be done with it. I never went through any academic lessons, I taught myself everything I know. The Beta’s daughter could write and read, as well as polish her language when speaking to sound classy and intelligent. It wasn’t just her, it was her, the Luna’s daughter too, and Logan himself. They all schooled at the human’s world. Whenever they came ba
Chapter 054Myra’s point of view When I woke up next, the clock had nearly struck noon. But I feel more refreshed than ever. I quickly freshened up and got myself ready for the day before I went down for breakfast. I haven’t seen Lucas since or yet, and honestly I’m avoiding an audience with him. Now that I know who he truly is, I have got to be careful and not be around him all the time. I also can’t afford him to sniff my suspicions so I have to go seek him sooner or later. Out of all the dishes prepared for breakfast, I settled for four slices of pancakes to go with the honey syrup. I was halfway through my meal when Madeleine showed up at the table. I’d been the only one at the table until her arrival. “Good morning,” I greeted her with a mouthful of food. She’s so beautiful, her hair was red and long, lush and silky. Her slender plus curvy figure also rocked the red gown that adored her body with vibrant auras and grace. Her hair was styled into a bun, but with fistful stra
Chapter 055Lucas’ point of view It wasn’t expected that she’d wake up so soon, Lisa had said to me that the coma would keep her until the blue moon when she’s needed. How did she manage to break out of it? I was shocked early this morning when the pack’s doctor dropped by happily to inform me of an upgrade in my mate’s health. I asked what about it, and he told me she’s awake and has discharged herself, he said she’s been awake since midnight even. It was unexpected so I had to look for Lisa and have her fix this, or at least give an explanation to why her words didn’t match the occurring events. I reached out to her through a mind-link, and for the first time it was snubbed or rather not answered. Then I sent a maid over to her quarters to get her for me, the maid return with the news of her absence, told me she’s nowhere to be found. I knew at once that I’ve hit yet another hiccup, Lisa cannot disappear on her own, there’s something off about her absence. Since she wasn’t aro
Chapter 056Logan’s point of view “Arise and shine.” I waved at her face as her lashes fluttered weakly, she groaned in a drowsy tone before she managed to steady her eyes opened. The sleep in her face cleared once her eyes settled on me, she flinched and made to attack me only to see herself bind up and restrained. “Zero manners, woke up and the first thing you wanted to do is pounce on me like some animal.” I hissed at her and pulled myself away from her. “What’s this? Where are we? Why am I tied up?” Her head flipped around, and her body struggled against the rope that kept her still. I gazed at her in silence, my expression blank and waited till her face came back to me. “What am I doing here?” She asked calmly, contrary to how agitated she’d become since she come to the realization that she’s been kidnapped. “That I can answer, you’re here to give me all I need.” I leaned against the table and folded my arms. She fell into confusion and tried to process my words. Later on
Chapter 057 Myra’s point of view I expected Lucas to show up since the words I left for Neil to get to him, yet it’s been over an hour and I haven’t seen anybody that looks like him knocked on my door. Why was I even expecting him? I don’t want to see him, he is dangerous and a menace to my safety. However, deep inside me, a weak part of me wishes he’s not the liar, that everyone else is instead. This is no other than a ploy to sabotage whatever we have going on. My door knocked, and my interest rocketed as I jumped out of the bed to check out who it was. Upon opening my door I was met with the concerned face of Linda. I was disappointed, but masked the expression and opened my door wider for her presence. I don’t know when last we saw each other, but her face sure looks so scarce. We were together throughout yesterday, I spared her after the training I didn’t return for today. What I went through in the little space of then till now has my brain box jumbled. “Your Highness, I’
Chapter 058Myra’s point of view Linda and I spent the next few hours discussing over casual conversations, like what her favorite food was or what her choices would be in difficult situations. It was really funny, and sometimes while laughing, we’d nearly sneeze out the cake we’re eating through our nose. She told me she’d rather duel a demon than lose her ability to bake delicious cakes, and was that not hilarious? Who wishes to duel a demon to keep such basic attribute? Linda of course. I forgot all about my worries and let myself enjoy the moment that wouldn’t last forever, it was liberating. Linda had to excuse herself later on though, told me to call her if I urgently needed anything because she has to go join other maids to start the preparation for tonight’s dinner. It’s already late afternoon and I still haven’t seen my mate, was he also avoiding me? Or perhaps he’s gotten the push that it was me who broke into his office, stole a file and made a mess out of his arranged
Chapter 059Logan’s point of view “If I’m going to stare at your face all day I’d need a blindfold please, or just take me out as usual….” I frowned at her casual interruptions, I’d really do the latter if it wasn’t for the trials I needed her to experience, and that cannot be done with her unconscious. So far I’ve derived from the numerous attempts to override the mental blockage that keeps me from jacking the will of her mind. It’s a mental blockage that cannot be override or destroy. It’s still a thing I’m observing, and I should figure out a way to deal with it when I’m done. This mental blockage is usually triggered when I offered a connection to take over her mind, this blockage automatically triggers and rejects my connection. To me I think it perceives it to be dangerous or a menace to its safety. Now I’m going to try and paint my liaison with a different aura, a peaceful aura so when next I go in for connection, the mental guard would register a safe invitation. If I c
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
