Amanda slowly opened her eyes with a beautiful smile gracing her face, she stretched out her hands to touch Alan but she only felt the warmness of the sheet and a sigh left her lips knowing he just got up. She stood up and stretched lightly as she did, her smile widened even more when she heard him laughing downstairs with their child. She couldn't believe how much the years have passed and how things have changed, little teardrops made way to her face as she remembered how much her life has changed within 5 years. *~ 5 years ago ~**The moment she got to Morgan's law firm, she parked hurriedly and stepped out of the car ready to run to her office but met her standing by the firm's door with a huge file on her hand and beside her stood a worried Alan, who kept darting his eyes around searching for something or rather someone because the moment he set eyes on her, she could see the relief wash through his face.*

Amanda strode into her company with a casual smile on her face, she couldn't remember the last time she was in there, and the shocked look and calculative stares of her employees made her nervous. Her smile never wavered as she confidently walked into her private elevator, the moment the doors closed she took a deep breath to calm her nerves, avoiding people for over a month has clearly done more harm than good. The elevator opened to reveal Oliver standing there in a suit with his tablet and a cup of coffee in his hand, a welcoming smile graced his face the moment he set eyes on Amanda "Welcome back, ma'am" She smiled back at him and nodded, "Thank you, Oliver" she said and took the cup from him, "shall we?" She asked and with a nod from him, they started walking to her office while he briefed her about the things he forgot to add in the email he sent last night. "Thank you for handling this company while I was away, you've done so well." She said gr

Alan sat rigidly on the sofa, his eyes would occasionally dart towards the stairs and each time a sigh would leave his lips when he doesn't see her coming down. He couldn't tell if it was a sigh of relief or nervousness, he doesn't know if he wants her to come down now or wait a little longer and the worst part, he hasn't figured out how to tell her."Calm down Alan, calm down" he muttered to himself and rested his head against the sofa as he continuously took deep breaths, after a while, he managed to relax and calm his fast heartbeat, but before he could fully relax, he heard footsteps approaching and his heartbeat skyrocketed again and he immediately sat up.He gulped nervously as his eyes took in the woman standing before him, she looked stunning even tho she was dressed in a very big oversized hoodie with tights, and her hair was wrapped up in a towel. He dragged his eyes from her legs and with great difficulty rested them on her face that was radiating with a smi

"What the fuck do you both think you are doing here?" Amanda spat out as soon as Andrew and Alice were close enough, she instinctively stood in front of Jonathan to keep them from seeing his coffin."That's not a nice way to welcome your elders!" Andrew said with a stern look on his face and a scoff left Amanda's lips. His features softened a little when he managed to catch a glimpse of Jonathan's coffin despite Amanda's attempt to block his view, but there was no trace of remorse or sadness in his face as he stared at it "I'm here to pay my last respects to my brother" he stated, turning back to Amanda and staring into her eyes.Amanda stared at him in confusion for a while before a low chuckle escaped her lips, "you!" She shouted, shoving her index fingers into his chest "you! You want to pay your last respect to him?" She pointed her fingers back at Jonathan's coffin, her face contorted in pain and anger "the same boy you killed?!" She

COUPLE WEEKS LATERAlan's eyes rested on Amanda as the mass for Jonathan was being carried out, her face was devoid of any emotion but if you look close enough, you could see her clenching and unclenching her fists, she would occasionally blink away the tears or bite her lips to hold back a sob.A deep sigh left Alan's lips and he moved away from where he was standing and went over to her, he softly grasped her hand in his without saying anything. She immediately looked up at him, surprised by the grand gesture because they barely had a proper conversation in the past two weeks.He could tell what the look on her face implied but he discarded it and mouthed "it's going to be okay", tears welled up in her eyes as he said that, but she nodded and tightened her grip on him before turning back to face the coffin and the priest leading the mass.A surge of gratitude washed through Amanda even tho she didn't say it out loud, she spent all week wondering how she

Kiara walkked out of her room with a smile on her face, but her mind swirled with thoughts from her talk with Devon on their date.She tried to believe his words that the moon goddess wouldn't have chosen her if she wasn't capable of it, but she couldn't. She only ended up as his mate because Kristen betrayed her, there was nothing divine about a betrayal. Deep inside, she wanted to march up to Devon and tell him that she knew she wouldn't be able to fulfil the needed roles of a Luna in this pack, and that he should let her go, but she couldn't bring herself to suffer another rejection, and definitely not from him.“You underestimate yourself a lot, Kiara” Kali whispered gently and both of Kiara’s brows shot up, “Devon was right, the moon goddess wouldn't have mated you to him if you weren't up to the task.”“Then what about Kristen? What if it had worked out with Kristen, I wouldn't even be here?”While she was still expecting a response from Kali, she felt two fingers on her forehea

“Any reason you can’t keep your eyes off me?” Kiara asked, dragging her eyes away from the restaurant’s interior to meet Devon’s.A corner of his lips tugged up and he shrugged, “What do you think?”Kiara's cheeks turned a deep shade of red and she instantly looked away from him. She had no idea why a simple question like that sent her insides into an overdrive, but she quite liked the feeling.“My turn to ask a question.”“I didn't know we were playing 20 questions.”“We are?” he asked with a feigned ignorance, causing Kiara to roll her eyes. He hid his laugh with a cough, “may I ask my question?”Clicking her tongue, Kiara signed. “You may.”“Thank you,” clearing his throat, Devon adjusted on his seat, “Why did you ask to switch restaurants? Is there anything I should know?”Kiara's mouth instantly ran dry, and

Kiara stared at her reflection again, while her hand smoothened out her outfit.“You look good”“Really good?”Eliza and Amira assured for the 30th time in the past 10 minutes, and she breathed out a laugh. Them saying that to her in unison, reminded her of Tanya and Chloe, and it made her heart hurt. She quickly forced the thoughts out of her mind, she was already nervous as it was for the date, and she couldn’t afford to feel any other negative feelings.“What if the outfit turns out to be the wrong one for where he’s taking me?” I looked back to the mirror and inspected the red gown I had on. It hugged my upper body firmly, but it was free and a bit flowy from the waist down. It was the perfect date outfit, but Kiara couldn’t help the growing pit of anxiety in her stomach.From the mirror, she saw Eliza and Amira exchange a look before they both shook their heads and walked over to her. Placing t

Pain shot through Kiara’s scalp, as the man fisted his hand around the hair and pulled. “Did you think you can escape, you stupid bit-“ the rest of the word didn’t get to leave his mouth before a punch was landed on his nose.“You don’t drag a lady by her hair.” A new voice said, it sounded both feminine and masculine, and Kiara who managed to run to Eliza, looked up to identify her savior, and her brows shot up.The face was soft and angelic, it could easily be a woman, but the person was dressed like a man, they looked like a man but their face betrayed that assumption, so Kiara just looked on as they dealt another punch to her harasser while she nursed her aching scalp.“I’m sorry, are you okay?” Eliza asked after she snapped out of the shock she was in, and Kiara nodded. “We should get going, there’s no point in staying here, things could get worse.”Nodding, Kiara followed her as s

Kiara expected Luka to be her first tutor, hence her shock when she walked out and met Eliza.“Does he pay you enough for being both a teacher and a doctor?”Eliza cracked a smile, “you might have to put in word for me, he doesn’t look it, but he is stingy as hell.”The both of them chuckled and Eliza led them to the car. “We are going to be driving into the pack today, Devon brought it to my attention that you have not been given a proper tour of the pack. After the tour, we’d dive into our first class.”Excitement immediately covered and took away the anxiety that has been boiling at the pit of her belly over the council summon. She has heard a lot of Akira pack, and it was disheartening that she had only been to a potion of it, a very remote potion of it, and her eyes twinkled with excitement at the thought of finally seeing the buzz and fuzz of the pack.“Wow…” Kiara breathed out, almost

Devon sat in silence, reeling in his disbelief. Of everything he expected Kiara’s conversation to be about, sealing their mating bond was the last thing he expected from her.“Are you not going to say anything?” The confidence she built up to bring this conversation on was depilating with every second he was silent.“I, umm…” he rubbed his lips together and adjusted on his seat, “I was just shocked. Go ahead, it seems you have more to say.”“Well, the more I have to say is my condition,” he nodded, urging her to go on and suddenly a wave of nervousness caused her stomach to knot. She couldn’t think of any reason he’d agree to her condition, other than the fact that she was his mate, and she has already learnt that being mates is not always enough reason.“I am going to hear you out, Kiara, and if it is something that I can do, I will definitely do it for you.” He had

The creatures stood before the graves of those that they lost during the fight, all dressed in white paying their last respect to them. "It is indeed unfortunate and painful that we lost our loved ones to this fight, but let us not remember them with sad thoughts but by their heroic deed," Ansel said to the creatures who had tears streaming down their eyes "the ritual has been completed, let us all go home and morn them in the comfort of our homes" he concluded and everyone started dispersing, going their separate ways. He stood there looking at the creatures till the cemetery was empty and he then turned towards Elle who gave him a sad smile, "let's go" he said and stretched out his hand which Elle took gratefully as they both walked to the cove where the wolves, the turned vampires, Ruri and Demi were all waiting for them. Elle cleared her throat the moment they got to the cove, drawing their attention to her as she s

Elle stood there glaring at Anthonio while he kept looking at her with a smile plastered on his face "let her go" she said with clenched teeth, making Anthonio's face morph into a scowl."Last I checked, I don't take orders from you," he said in an angry tone making Elle take a few steps back in fear "I should have just killed you a long time ago, you wouldn't have become a problem now and you will probably just be resting with your parents" he stated and Elle's eyes widened."What did you just say?!" She asked in a low and angry tone, her eyes darkening."Ahh, I never told you," he said and smiled at her "I'm not your father and Anna is not your mother. You are a stolen child." Elle whimpered when he said that."Where are my parents?!" She managed to voice out, trying to swallow down the pain in her voice.Anthonio pointed two fingers on his forehead and made a shooting sign "Dead, dead and dead. They were stupid enough to refuse the deal I made t

ONE WEEK LATERElle was sleeping peacefully when screams and stampedes woke her up, she immediately sat up on her bed and started looking around frantically when a heavy knock came on her door.She stood up from the bed, dressed in the shorts and top she wore to sleep and took the wristwatch that Mamock got her and rushed downstairs, manipulating the watch into a sword on her way down."Who is there?" She asked leaning on the door with the sword raised up, ready to swing."Elle it's me Ruri! We are under attack!" Ruri shouted, almost out of breath. Elle immediately opened the door and rushed out."What did you just say?""We are under attack, the realm warriors are upfront trying to keep it under control" Ruri explained as the both of them ran off together."What about the others? Have they been taken to safety?""Mamock is in charge of that, we have to hurry Elle," Ruri said and increased her pace."Is it Anthonio?" Rur

Ansel stood in front of Elle, patting her head softly "Are you ready?" He asked in a low tone and she nodded reluctantly.Today is the day they will be going back to their time frame, she spent the entire night with the others having a slumber party and it was her way of saying goodbye."Let's leave already, I might change my mind if we spend a minute longer here," Elle said, trying to lighten up the mood. Truth be told, she doesn't want to go back, this time frame is a lot more lively and peaceful and she doesn't have to worry about a thing, but then she can't just let everything fade away because of her selfishness.Ansel smiled at her and pulled her into his arms "either way, you will still have to go back. You don't belong to this time after all" he said to her, rubbing her cheek softly."Shut up"He let out a little laugh before he started muttering something making Elle gasp in pain

Anthony stood before the mirror, adjusting his tie till he was okay with it. He looked at himself one more time before taking his phone and briefcase and walked downstairs.Anna stood in the kitchen, looking a lot thinner and paler than before, Anthony placed a quick kiss on her cheek and sat down on a dining chair "Good morning, is the food almost done?" He asked, placing his briefcase beside him."Oh yes, it's done. Give me a minute" she said, bringing out plates from the shelf. She immediately dished out the pasta and placed it before him "here"He looked at the food and gave her a warm smile "You aren't eating?" He asked when he noticed there was no plate in front of her.Anna sighed and shook her head "No, I'm not really hungry"Anthony dropped his fork and grabbed her hand softly "Is this about Elle again?" He asked in a soft voice, making Anna release a deep breath. "Listen, I'll find her and I'll kill her for making you go through this, and

"So let's get started with mind manipulation, I knew from the beginning that this will be the hard part for you," Ansel said to Elle, they were both seated in his office."So you were planning to make a full appearance once I've mastered the two other abilities?" Elle asked with an amused smile."Well, you can say that. You mastered the other two with little to zero help, so my guess is this won't be as hard as I thought it would be" He said, standing up from his chair and walking over to her picking up a book."You already know that everything is run and controlled by energy, am I right?" He asked, raising an eyebrow and Elle nodded in agreement. He smiled and placed the book before her "can you see or feel the energy of this book?"Elle looked away from him and fixed her gaze on the book "I can't see it" she said and placed her hand on the book "but I can feel it" a smile lit up on her face, as she cares
