CHAPTER THIRTY-ONEDARIUSIt was an uneasy feeling that washed over me, seeing Melissa and Hazel talk from a distance. Hazel looked quite mad, and Melissa looked a little shaken. I strode up to them, and Melissa jumped the moment she noticed my presence. Her eyes flitted around mine, and she turned to Hazel. “I stayed at a friend's house because…oh, Darius.” She was so unnatural with her words. She already saw me, so why did she turn to Hazel, say something stupid, then turn again like she was just noticing me? “Good morning.”My gaze switched to Hazel who looked displeased, but her eyes were downcast. Melissa had done something.“Hazel.” I called.She looked up at me, her troubled green eyes a forest of beauty. “Good morning, Darius.”“Is everything okay?” I asked, and she glanced at Melissa. “She doesn't believe I was harassed.”That didn't seem like the real thing, but still, I turned on Melissa, who smiled uncomfortably. “Well, the… the position they were in, uh, actually. Um

CHAPTER THIRTY-TWODARIUSThe Land Of The Dead.A land that many feared to go to. A call that no one could ignore or resist— a call that only few survived, and amongst the few that survived, many lost their minds, and were never revived. Most of them died. It began as a strange call, one that only the summoned person could hear. The person would then be thrown into the Land Of The Dead, and would be put in slumber. Only the soul would journey across the lands. Any injury inflicted on the soul would be reflected on the body. That was how many died of mysterious wounds. The person would stay, facing whatever problems arose in there, all on their own, and would be unable to receive help, for anyone who veered too close to that person would automatically be dragged in, along with that person. “The Land Of The Dead?” I asked. That was ridiculous. “Why? Why do I merit such a punishment? It's not like I put the werewolf Kingdoms into jeopardy, or went around killing humans in masses.”Kie

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE DARIUSI looked into Hazel's green eyes, and her hand on my hair slipped off. “Is it going to be a long trip? Tiring?” She asked, and I gave a sigh. Getting to my feet, she stepped back, and I walked to a sofa, patting the space next to me. She sat right where I asked her to sit. “For some reason, you seem a little, uh, sad?” She said, and I leaned back on the sofa, crossing my legs as I watched her. Through her peripheral view, she glanced at me, before clearing her throat. A smile crept up my lips as I saw her ear growing red. Then while she struggled to look everywhere else but my face, I gently placed my index finger in her ear. She jumped as if charged by electricity, and looked at me with wide eyes, and parted lips. It made me laugh, and the tension in the air melted like ice. Her lower lip joined her upper lip in a pout, and she tried not to smile, as she watched me.“You made me think something was wrong. Now, I don't think so.”“Were you worried?” I

CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR MELISSA I watched as the guards poured out onto the streets, terrifying people as they went in their numbers. They were definitely going to line the borders in preparation for a war. My fingers trembled causing the wine in my cup to tilt. Then, I ran a hand through my hair, sighing. I had to do something fast enough. Whatever Darius' punishment was, it was definitely something strong enough for Alpha Liam to think of attacking. I shuddered, thinking of Jake's words. Two days— I had only two days, else two Kingdoms would attack. It wouldn't be pretty. Walking out of my room, I thrusted my glass into the hands of a maid. The mansion was alive with guards moving up and down, talking in urgent tones, and they bowed when they saw me. “Where's Darius?” I asked one of them.“We weren't informed of his whereabouts, ma'am. I believe you should ask the beta or the gamma.” He replied respectfully, and I stormed off the Darius' room. At least he ought to tell me what his

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE HAZEL My fingers drummed on my lips for the one thousand and ‘one-th’ time, and slowly, my lips stretched into a smile. Throwing myself onto my pillows, I kicked the blankets around, giggling to myself. “Gosh.” I threw the covers over my head, and folded my lips.The kiss— it plagued my thoughts all afternoon. I couldn't even do a single thing without it flitting into my mind. It was just too good. I felt I'd be embarrassed, but I actually wanted more. It had awoken a hunger within me, so deep that it felt like a monster rising from slumber. I sat up, my hair falling messily over my face, as I tried to relieve the memory of the kiss. Why was it so good? Was it because he was so good at it? Was it the way his hands touched my body and spread fire all around? Stuff I thought I could never feel, I felt it all in that kiss, and even though it was all moving at a fast pace, the overwhelming feeling was like honey to me. “Come on, Hazel!” I snapped at myself, and g

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX XANDER I couldn't help it. I had to tell her. Hazel was beautiful no doubt. Looking into her green eyes, it always made me feel calm, and damn, she had beautiful teeth, and those little-heart shaped lips— whenever she pulled them up in a smile, I didn't know why I had the urge to stare. King Darius was well-known for picking the most beautiful ladies to stay by his side, whether for a fling, or an engagement in the case of Melissa, but Hazel was by far the most beautiful. There was just something about her that unraveled me in a way I couldn't comprehend. Her soft skin, beautiful smile, and shy voice. I'd never met someone who understood the power of books the way she easily did. Even as she watched me with those eyes, I longed to tell her more.She was more than beautiful. I wouldn't think of a reason she'd assume her sister, Aurora would be better than her. Lowering my hand from her soft, silky hair, I cleared my throat. ‘Xander, she's Darius'. Don't forget

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN DARIUS “Darius.” The voice called, and it began to grow stronger, with each second. It grew until it felt like the whole room was echoing with it. I bit my lip, feeling unsure about everything and everyone I was leaving behind.I gritted my teeth, and looked at my closed door once more, as the whisper turned into a shrill scream that seemed to bore into my head. “Darius!”I lay on the bed, going under the covers, and closed my eyes. “Here I am.” I replied, and immediately, I seemed to fall from quite a height. I struggled, fighting with my arms and legs, wanting to land safely. Thudding onto a strong surface, my groan echoed, as I tried to raise myself. I looked around me— darkness. “Let's get this over with. Whatever it is.” I spat, looking around at the dark abyss. Slowly, as the darkness dissipated, the whole place began to tear down, coming awash with color.Beige walls, sunlight streaming in, a large bed, books, portraits, a pair of pink sneakers…I f

CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT MELISSA “You want Hazel?” I asked, schooling my face into one of shock, disbelief, and fear. Inside me was as sweet as honey. Everything seemed to be working according to plan. “I believe she will do much more damage to Darius than a war will.”“Why Hazel? We can't just do that. Darius will go mad.”“I'm assuming you know where your fiance went.” Alpha Liam said, twirling wine in his glass. “But, you really can't do that. Kill an innocent girl all because of Darius?”“Oh no, I'm not like that. I want to toy with her a little bit.” He said, with a smirk, and my heart pounded. He wasn't going to kill her??But no, as he and Jake exchanged grins, I knew they had something naughty in mind. They were definitely going to murder her. “Promise me you won't hurt her. She's important.” I said, and Jake raised a brow.“Weren't you the one who got Crane killed because you wanted him to pretend he and Hazel were having something?” He asked, and I swallowed.“At the time,

CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE DARIUS “Damn!” I yelled, as I managed to bring my head above the surface once more. My black hair plastered to my face in slime water, and I took out my claws, swiping madly at the creatures. They made screeching noises, and stank so bad that I felt it would kill me instead of the slimy water they wanted to drown me in. “Stay.” They all began to say, their words overlapping, in their scratchy voices. “Get off me!” I yelled as they increased in number, gathering from every part of the water to come to me.My claws swiped blindly, black substance squirting on my face, with each slash. Face, neck, body, arm— I slashed madly, wanting to hit anything I could. Wanting to somehow magically ruin them all for daring to even touch me.My hair was pulled roughly by hands. My legs were also pulled downwards, and I actually held onto one of them, so I would stay above the surface. They were so slippery, I could barely hold on. One caught my arm, and before I could bat it

CHAPTER FORTY HAZEL The color drained from my face, as I saw Aurora sitting with her arms and legs crossed, as she watched me with a smile.Next to her was her Alpha, looking at me with furrowed brows. He was the Alpha I was supposed to get married to. Alpha Liam and his Beta sat on another sofa, all of them, staring at us. “Oh my God, Hazel, I knew you'd get into trouble soon enough. Honey, may I have a word with her?” She asked, and I wanted to say no, but I couldn't. I was the one in the less favorable position.“Go on.” Her Alpha said, and she got up, adjusting her dress. Tucking her hair behind her ear, she signaled rudely with her finger for me to follow her, and that, I did.She led me to a room, and eyed me from up to down.“Look, Hazel, I have the key to your life right in my hands, and you should know that.”“Is that really what you called me for? To gloat?” I asked. She was unbelievable. “It's not gloating, dear, I'm telling you what is happening right now. Honestly, yo
