That deadly moment scared her
greatly.
Clarissa's feet were hardly stable on the window sill so, as she glanced at Zaramanni, the she-wolf had to hold onto the frame for support.
"Why are you stopping me?" Clarissa asked, her voice low and sober. "Why…" she then faced the sky ahead. "Why can't you mind your business?"
"You don't have to do this, Clarissa. You have to live," Zaramanni responded softly as she took one cautionary step closer.
"Why?" Clarissa screamed when she faced Zaramanni again. Hair flowing with the wind, face reddened with tears, she screamed again, "Why?"Clarissa's legs shook, she was still struggling to find her balance. "Why should I live? What is left for me? What meaning does my life have?"
"Clarissa, you-"
"My baby is dead! My entire family is dead because of

One thing Alpha Darren loved about the manor was the sparkling river behind the huge building.Before the moon goddess selected him to be the next Alpha King after his father, The Mighty Wolf, died, Darren grew up in the manor.And, that river was a place he went to whenever he was bothered.Just as it was in the past, the Alpha wished to go to the riverside because he was greatly troubled.His shoes made clicking noises that filled the empty corridors.With his hands folded behind him, while his boots filled the corridors with noise, King Darren wondered if he should visit the half-fairy girl.It had been a while since he saw her. And, he had an important question to ask her.But, while the question was important, the peace he was feeling at that point pleasured him greatly.He loved that he wasn't feeling the hard pull of his wolf. King Darren didn't know how long his wolf would stay quiet, so he wishe

“I have no intention to offer you a seat,” Alpha Darren spoke, a reckless look in his eyes. Before he spoke further, his ears picked up the sounds of footsteps. Soon, the other Betas joined them. “We have offered you enough comfort by giving you a place to stay. You can’t be too comfortable either, I am certain you get my point.”The Vampire managed a smile in response.He settled his hand fan on the table and his dark-chocolate skin glistened in the light of the room for a second.After a curt nod, he said, “Alpha King Darren, I fully understand you.” His voice was still very chilling.But the exposure of his fangs which have been rumoured to have taken a thousand lives gave his overall presence a deadlier feel.“I surprised myself as well when I found my way to your kingdom. Zenrada and Skullis have been enemies for so long,” he scoffed, his hands behind him, “so, it ma

With all her strength, Zaramanni tried to rip off her shirt. If she needed to go naked to get free from the murderous hold, she would do it. She didn’t care. But, while her buttocks felt hotter as she was involuntarily dragged over the tile, the shirt gown refused to tear. Her hands fumbled with the material while her throat began to feel more and more tightened, gagging noises leaving her lips by the second. Her breath was gradually leaving her. That was until she made contact with the person’s wrist. “Argh!” A masculine shriek filled the corridors and sizzling sounds followed. And the grasp disappeared. Quickly, Zaramanni crawled to a distance she considered safe. Heavy breaths escaped her as her hands kept feeling her neck to make sure it was still intact. Then, with her eyes narrowed with slight fear and curiosity, Zara looked ahead and watched her attacker hold his wrist which was now greatly scarred with burns. The darkened spot on his skin emitted smoke until it did n

When Zoey left her room after ensuring her hand was bandaged despite it not hurting, Zaramanni got to know that sleep would not come to her. So, she got off her bed and sneaked past Clarissa who turned her back to her to prepare some heated water.Clarissa was highly apologetic toward Zara when she found out what her mate, rather, ex-mate did. The woman almost ended up in tears when she saw Zara’s reddened palm. While she said Andrea deserved more than a thousand slaps, she thanked Zara for helping her and she apologized for dragging the girl into her mess.Of course, Zaramanni found the apologies unnecessary.All she did was deal with a man-wolf who had no regard for the person he shared a bond with. It was no big deal.As Zara gently closed the doors of her room, she wondered where she could go. At first, she contemplated walking to the garden where she and Zoey almost had an intense moment, but she soon changed her mind, and without much thought, she began to walk.Zaramanni had

Naked, legs intertwined, Zoey and Zaramanni stayed close to each other as they listened to the sounds that came with the settling night-time. Zara had her eyes closed and her lips wore a huge smile while a terrific fluttering filled her stomach area because Zoey kept circling his fingers over the softness of her skin. "Hmm..." Zoey broke the long silence with his deep voice that would definitely continue to delight Zara. "The goddess would be totally wrong if we end up not being mates."Zaramanni wrapped one of her arms around his lower abdomen. She rested her head against his chest as she began to stroke his leg gently with hers. Then, she asked, "What if that happens? What if we are not mates as we think?""Then we will write our own story. We will show the goddess what happens when she doesn't do her job right."Zara chuckled softly. "That sounds rebellious."Zoey pulled her closer to his warmth, their naked bodies still uncovered, and he continued, "I will mark you as mine so t

“The people that wish me dead?” Zara asked, caution in her voice. The Overlord gave a curt nod to which Zaramanni frowned. As she raked the man with her blue eyes, she noted how sullen he looked. But, she had no interest in asking him about his life story. “Are you talking about the fairies?”“Yes, the fairies are after you. But,” Zara couldn’t shake off how dangerous his voice sounded in those lonely corridors, “within this kingdom called Zenrada are wolves you should watch out for.”The Vampire’s response intrigued Zaramanni. Though something told her that he was just weaving words to scare her for his pleasure. Eyes trained on the creature, she asked, “Which of the wolves?”“I don’t know who, but I overheard their conversation. They are after you, Zaramanni. You need to watch out.” “You strangely sound serious about this,” Zara found herself uttering in a low voice. Her brows twitching, she stole a glance at the sky beyond, and as she did that, the corner of her eyes caught a gl

While low kissing sounds filled the space, distant howls reached Zaramanni and Zoey’s ears. But that moment became more intense that the outside world became foreign to them.The tall man-wolf gently pushed Zara against the wall and one of his hands went on to have a firm grip around her neck. With that hold, he moved her head the way he pleased. He did that to help him gain more and more access to her luscious lips which managed to match the heated pace at which Zoey kissed her.While he ran his tongue over the length of Zara’s tongue, Zoey teased her lips and the insides of her mouth with his tongue. Almost roughly, he dug his teeth into the softness of her lower lip.Zara noted how different his hold was from the previous times. This time, he was more demanding with his touches. His hands were restless, his lips kept tugging at hers hungrily and his growing hardness kept rubbing against her lower abdomen repeatedly.Zaramanni didn’t complain. She was loving it.She found their posi
ZARAMANNI PART TWO: CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
Staring at the lifeless body of the Overlord made King Darren feel more dread. Even in death, the eerie aura that followed the leader of Skullis still existed.Without making much noise, the men that transported the Overlord from the seated position he was found, covered the dead body and stood aside, awaiting the next set of instructions.A terrible tugging in his chest, Darren took his sight off the Overlord’s body. He looked past the windows and saw how the moon kept shining bright, unaware that some sort of a disaster had befallen the kingdom.Overlord Zamar dying in Zenrada could go wrong in so many ways. Alpha Darren knew for sure that the people of Skullis would use the unforeseen incident as an excuse to fully threaten Zenrada with war.Or worse, they could attack them in the dead of the night. If the Vampires are able to block the energy of Zenrada’s moon just like the fairies did, there was no doubt that things would go wrong for Zenrada no matter the strength of the wolves.

In no time, the hour of their departure arrived. And in order to avoid displaying emotions such as hatred and anger, Zara made sure to give herself a nice speech about being a good-mannered half-fairy. She was already reminding herself that Alpha Darren would never be called her mate when Lord Elias’s voice interrupted her. “Are you ready?” Lord Elias asked as the long-robed, heavily-hooded individual beside him started creating a huge ball of portal. “Once you get there, you can ask the dragon to create a return portal.” “Is there anything else we should know?” Alpha Darren asked, his backpack sturdily strapped to his back. His bag was so big that Zara wondered what was inside it. “I think I have said everything necessary,” Lord Elias replied. Then he faced Sham who was struggling with the belt around his hard trousers. “Gamma Sham, you are the King’s guard, you know what to do.” “I am aware of my duties, Lord Elias. There is no need to be unduly concerned.” A small jerk of his

“I guess we are all here,” Alpha Darren said. And Zaramanni took her eyes off the Luna who was majestically seated beside the King.It had been three days since she saw the scene she could have never imagined. She could still see the images of their sweaty bodies sliding and glueing into each other. So, as she darted her sight back to Sham who was standing opposite her, she wondered what his deal was. It was quite gutsy of him to be sleeping with the Alpha’s wife.“Zaramanni…” Zoey announced his presence by tickling her earlobe with his thick breath. After reaching for her fisted hand, he said, “Stop thinking so hard and focus. This meeting is crucial.”“Oh…” Zara relaxed her full-of-hate-and-worry expression and took a look around the throne room where every member of the council decided to have the meeting concerning the coming war. The room had a regency vibe attached to it, especially with the high windows and lengthy walkway which lead to the high platform on which the Alpha an

Glad that Beta Zoey kept his word and stayed by her side all night, Zaramanni woke up the next day, unbothered by the drama that usually came with her period. Her lips wearing a smile, Zara quickly left the weird sleep posture she was in and turned to face the man in her thoughts. But instead of giggles, a shriek left her and she was almost kissing the ground with her buttocks. Staring back at her was the biggest wolf she had seen since her encounter with Alpha Darren’s blood-thirsty wolf. Eyes greatly widened in caution, Zara scanned the reckless way the animal sprawled itself on the bed which was surprisingly yet to break down. “Uh… Zoey?” Zara called into the room and she hoped that her man was close enough to save her from whatever danger she was about to face. “Z-Zoey?” Her feet gently found the coldness of the tiles.She was about to trail her steps backward when a little whimper reached her ears. “Uh… Zoey?”The whimper came again and the half-fairy finally got herself to

“Please, make it quick,” Zara urged Laura once they found a fairly quiet corner to stand at.“I have no intention to have long talks with you.”“Okay?” Zara replied, her eyes rolling in reaction. Just the mere presence of the woman annoyed her in a way she could not explain.“The Alpha King and I are not going to break up. We had the most amazing time in bed two days ago. Well, not in bed, but you get me. So, you are not going to succeed in your ridiculous plan.” Silence was all the woman got in response. Brows cocked, she further asked, “Well?”"Well, what?"“You are supposed to say you understand.”"Understand what? Why would I be bothered about you and Alpha Darren? What is my business if you are going to be together for eternity?”The Luna’s bold eyes twitched with anger. “You were in his bed,” she furiously spoke through her teeth.”“And you flogged me for that,” Zara was stern with her response and her gaze. "You have done enough, don’t you think?” “Excuse me? Are you not even

“Are you freaking kidding me?” Zaramanni spat when she saw the person Zoey brought with him. Swiftly, she turned to face the greenery that surrounded the large, cemented ground they were standing on. “I don’t want to see him.”Beta Zoey's sigh was audible. So when she heard it, Zara felt a little terrible.“We need Lord Elias’s help with your powers.” The click-clack of his feet approached her and soon, his hands were resting on her shoulders. “You know that, don’t you? He is presently the only one that can help with the magical side of your powers. I can only teach you ways to protect yourself.”“I know Lord Elias is meant to help me. But…” Zara looked to the side. “... he is the reason Isaac is dead. If he had not rashly pinned the Overlord’s death on him, he might still be alive. If something as terrible as that happened because of Lord Elias, I can not forgive him or place my existence in his hands. I have no intention to do so. So,” she finally turned to face the Beta, “tell him

Back in Zara’s new room, the couple who had earlier shared a meal was waking up from the deep sleep they fell into.Zara was the first to open her eyes. And when her slightly blurry gaze fell on Zoey’s stubbled chin, she wore a smile. Then, she reached for his face.As she mapped his right cheek, her heart began to flutter and she wondered what she did to deserve having someone like Beta Zoey. Regardless of how he was with other people, he was already eager to show her love. He was always ready to protect her.Zaramanni knew she always wished to have that kind of person on her side when she was still facing her terrible fate in high school, but she never knew she would actually meet such a person. And she would have never guessed that she would get that person in another realm.Her fingers were now hovering below his nostrils when his coloured eyes flew open.“You are awake,” came his grumbled voice.“I am.”Without hesitation, Zoey found her waist and he pulled her closer. With a gri

“Zaramanni, let’s go to your room,” the Beta said as he reached for her hand. Zara looked up at him and when she tried to smile, it failed. “You must be tired,” he said, spelling out the thought in her head. “It has been a few rough days.”“It has.” They began to walk down the corridor and Zara wished they would quickly reach the wing where her new room was. “I prepared something for you.” Zoey’s affectionate gaze made Zara wonder what it was. He answered her before she could ask. “You haven’t eaten in days. So, I instructed the palace chef to cook you something light and simple.”Her tiredness quickly crawled out of its hiding place. The laziness in her legs disappeared but her willingness to do anything, unfortunately, did not return.“Zoey?” she managed to call.“Do you want me to carry you?”As she nodded, Zara wondered if he was always reading her mind. It was amazing yet weird how Zoey knew what she wanted sometimes. While it was cool that there was a means to let someone kn

The Alpha King could feel something ticking in his head. That feeling started when Zaramanni dropped a statement that shattered his soul in the worst way. He was still trying to grasp the reality of her statement when Beta Fam decided to act all commando for whatever reason. And as if that was not enough, his wolf came alive and became frenzied because of their proximity to Zaramanni who was wearing a scent that they could not ignore.At that moment, the silence that befell the room after he shut Beta Fam up was still existent. But a few seconds later, screeching noise came from his chair which he briskly pushed away as he stood up.Hands planted on the table, back arched while he tried to keep a sane mind, Alpha Darren wondered for a minute if he would be able to survive being that close to Zaramanni. He could already feel his heart racing more than it did when he first met Laura and the fact that he couldn’t reach for Zara’s hand and escape from that room with her made things w

“Are we there yet?” Zaramanni asked for the third time, her calves already feeling the effect of walking up a hilly road.Beta Zoey, who was walking ahead with a rather proud gait in his steps, stopped to face her. Stretching his hand and offering his help once again, he said, “We are almost there. Do you want me to carry you?” he offered. Zaramanni almost said no but the throbbing in her legs was enough warning for Zara who quickly nodded and accepted the Beta's offer.“Okay…” His response was filled with excitement as he squatted and offered his broad back.Zaramanni watched as the night’s breeze blew through his hair which had grown a few inches overnight. So, with a smile on her lips, she climbed on his back and asked, “Doesn’t this remind you of that day?”“The day I got rid of the Vampire’s venom from your body?” A little grunt left his lips as he adjusted Zara’s body and gently got on his feet.“Yes. You remember.”“I will never forget things that have to do with you,” Zoey re
