Chapter: CHAPTER 149JEMIMA’S POV The Morning After The office was buzzing. Same as always, pre-workings of a hive. Same as any other morning. But not for me. I was in orbit. Floating. Walking on clouds. Eryx and I had shared small knowing glances across our open-plan office a few times that morning and I could not contain the flush on my cheeks, the tight feeling in my throat from the knowledge that we shared a secret between us. A secret from the night before that vibrated through the air like electricity. I opened and shut files, I sat in meetings and meetings, and tried to pretend to be a normal human being. But in the sanctuary of my own thoughts I played back his voice, his hands, his smile. A beautiful problem. It most certainly was that. I was frowning at an email trying to figure out who, on earth, I would send an email to that made no sense when suddenly the entire office was cast in a silent hush and people began to crane their necks toward the main door. There he was. Eryx. Although he was

Chapter: CHAPTER 148OZZY’S POV “There’s a reason for that,” I said at last, not looking at him but at the empty blackboard behind him. “My… past isn’t like most people’s. And my mother… my mother was **Visha**.” Ahvi's eyes became wide open while he momentarily stopped crying. No one whispered the name **Visha** in this town. The name **Visha** appeared etched into this location's foundations and it remained present after five years. **They all knew the story. The legend. The horror. ** “Visha?” he asked, voice so quiet that he seemed not to believe his own ears. “But… what?” He gazed at me and found an unintended exhaustion in my eyes. “She was my mother. My biological mother. And, no. No. **I never agreed with what she did. Not once. I saw what she was doing. The destruction. The horror. **” I paused, because those memories tasted foul in my mouth. “I… I tried to fight her, tried to talk to her. But you can’t reason with a monster. She told me that I was weak, that I was a bleeding heart. In the en

Chapter: CHAPTER 147GAVIN’S POV The door to the warehouse creaked shut. It was over. I stood motionless for a moment, alone with the silence and the last feeble pleas dying on her lips. There was no great sense of satisfaction, no swell of emotion. Only a quiet, cold feeling that the score was settled. It wasn't the first time that I thought of my father, a good man, whose life she had ended without a second thought. I was his arrow, swift and true. She had built her life on fear, on breaking the human spirit. I'd seen it, time and time again: the empty eyes, the ravaged minds, the empty husks of people who were once filled with lives, loves, families. I'd hunted her for years, driven not just by some warped sense of balance, but because she was the destroyer of my family, my enemy. I found her and we talked. Her attitude displayed arrogance mixed with a delusional belief in her own invincibility. As her wrists and ankles felt the pressure of ropes she sneered and spat before attempting to manipulate

Chapter: CHAPTER 146KALMIA’S POV Arrow sat up, and set the phone down. He took my hands. “Breathe, Ava. Look at me.” I tried. But I was trembling. Fear had set in. “You know what she did. What she’s capable of. You know how much she hates me.” “She’s not coming near you ever again.” Arrow maintained a steady tone throughout his statement. Our experiences and people have changed since we lived six years ago. Her freedom exists but she possesses no control over you now. “She tried to burn my whole life down.” “She failed.” I looked up at him. The certainty in his eyes was an anchor. Arrow lifted me up into his arms while holding my head against his chest. I could feel his heartbeat. Strong. Steady. So different from my own. “You’re safe, Ava. I swear it.” We sat for a long time, both of us staring at nothing. “I can’t let her near Dawn.” I whispered at last. “She knew about Dawn. She used to talk about what she’d do if she ever saw her…” Arrow pulled back, cupping my face. “Then we stay

Chapter: CHAPTER 145KALMIA’S POV I was in the kitchen fast. The scent of home sunk deep into my bones and soaked them, soothing them like a tonic. The walls were warmer; the silence gentler. I wasn’t on edge or berating myself for still being. I wrapped the scarf around my head and pulled on a fresh pair of shorts and tank top before digging around in the cabinet. Something easy but filling, something that smelled like peace. I was chopping onions. But something compelled me to slam the knife against the cutting board. I looked up through my watery eyes, pushing my hand behind them. I was not sure if it was the sting of onions or the choking artist in me. I was so focused that I only then realized he was behind me, holding me around the waist. “Oh!” I yelped. “Arrow! You scared me.” He nuzzled against my neck. “I missed you cooking. Smelling like home. You.” “Finish cooking first,” I said while chopping onions but my lips kept twitching from overwhelming joy. “I understand,” he murmured int

Chapter: CHAPTER 144KALMIA’S POV We were lost in our hug, in that moment of warmth and that thin atmosphere of forgiveness, when there was a loud clap. Clap! Clap! Clap! We looked over our shoulders. At her store entrance Jade stood with her hands slowly clapping while her face displayed a broad smile. In her gaze I could see both playful mischief and deep pride. I rolled my eyes playfully while showing a smile. Was that your reason for trying to get rid of me from your home? She laughed and shook her head. You really understood exactly what I was doing, Kalmia. You just needed a little help. The person who entered my store this morning appeared ghostly and was crying to request an audience with you. Arrow tucked his head in a bit shyly, but still kept a tight grip on my hand. “I just wanted to make things right. I couldn’t go another morning without you.” I stared at him. “Arrow... I—” He interrupted me kindly and moved my stray hair from my face without saying a word. “Little Dawn is waiting fo

THE DRAGON'S BRIDE.
“I am the father of the child”, Azar spoke up, “but she will not live, she must die”
Ignis looked at him with anger, “You! You are to take after me as the oldest yet you are the one causing me pain. That girl will not die! She is carrying the child of a royal Draego. No one will touch her and she must come here”.
“Ignis, you have to understand that, that human will be his weakness and he needs strength”, the empress replied.
Edgan and Zayn turned to Azar, they were trying to think of any human girl they saw him with.
Ignis turned to his wife to reply to her, “If you read that letter, you’d see that her father is about to sell her off through a marriage alliance to the Slavcan prince, do you want Azar’s child to grow with the Slavcans?”
***********************
Kaliyah had caused quite an uproar among the Draegos as she was a human carrying the child of a royal dragon. This child was her saving grace from the hands of the brutal Slavcans and a call to her destiny as the bride of the royal dragon. As the warrior princess that she was, she fought for peace in her time and helped grow her kingdom with the help of the dragons.

Chapter: TRAINING WITH THE CHILDREN “So until the royal investigator is punished for the accusation without evidence, I will be away from the castle”, Brenna said calmly. The king sat at the tip of her bed and turned to her, “You have to understand that I am a king and have certain duties. Compromising should not be allowed in this position! You chose this life when you married me, you should expect things like this. Yes, you are innocent but the royal investigator has to do his job. You definitely cannot hold such a big grudge against him”. Brenna smiled, “I am your wife before being your subject. You are my husband before being the king. If you do not care about me, save my face at least”. “What nonsense! What do you mean by I do not care about you? I am doing this because I care about you! If I let this slide without investigations, it will look like I’m covering up for you”, the king replied. “I will not sit back and watch the insult! If he cannot prove me guilty in three days, please permit me to do wh

Chapter: TRAINING WITH THE DRAGONS“Mother, what brings you here?”, Azar decided to ask to end the topic of pregnancy and avoid further fight. “To take her, training will begin shortly. I would have sent someone to come take her but I was afraid she’d decline”, the empress said with a smile plastered on her face. “I’m afraid she’d have to skip training for now”, Azar said. The empress looked at Azar, a little dumbfounded, “I am quite hurt that you dare speak against your mother and the Empress but it’s fine, I understand your sentiments as she is with your child. But your father and I have already discussed this. She is not even worthy to carry your…” “Mother”, Azar cut her mid-sentence, “Enough with all these. She cannot begin training immediately because she is with child” Kaliyah was touched seeing the way Azar supported her but then she thought, “It’s not like he cares about me, it's about his child”. “She is weak and clueless about this empire and about the kind she carries in her womb! She has to be taught!

Chapter: WITH CHILD“It’s nice to meet you, I am Princess Kaliyah”, Kaliyah greeted monotonously and without expression. The woman clicked her tongue, “And I am Azar’s mother, the empress!” Kaliyah raised her brows, Azar? It must be the name of the father of her child. She quickly schooled her expression and bowed slightly, “My honor. Is there a problem?” “No, I came to see the human we have been expecting”, she couldn’t hide her disgust when she said ‘human’, “You will begin training in 30 minutes, get ready”, she said and turned to leave. “Wait”, Kaliyah stopped her and the empress paused, without turning back, “I just got here, shouldn’t you think of giving me food first and letting me rest before I go for whatever training I need to go for” The empress chuckled and turned sideways to talk to her, “You are hungry and you cooped yourself up in your room, that’s funny. Were you expecting me to come to serve you? Get ready, in half an hour, you will begin training. Being late will attract punishment

Chapter: THE LETTERIn the throne room, The king was seated on his throne with a distraught expression on his face. The royal investigator, Morat, the chief commander, Brenna and Kenna, were seated in the throne room.The sky was dark and cloudy as it was about to rain and the hall was dimly lit concealing the look of anxiousness and fear on the faces of Brenna and Kenna.The royal investigator cleared his throat, “The contents of the letter are highly incriminating, proper investigation has to be done, my king”“Are you trying to say I would do such a thing? Are you trying to say that I would leave the kingdom without even telling the king at night? This is treason!”, Brenna said angrily and stood up, “The writer of that false letter and the royal investigator must be charged with treason”. Kenna stared at her mother silently with obvious fear in her eyes.“But I am not the one who wrote the letter”, The royal investigator retorted politely with an expressionless face.“Silence everyone!”, the king orde

Chapter: LEAVING WITH THE DRAGONThe days passed quickly, with Kaliyah keeping to herself and not leaving her room to avoid further drama. She had to be careful, she didn’t know what Brenna was planning. It was already the day when the dragon said he would come to take her.She was sitting by her dresser with Rheagal styling her hair.“Do you think I should style my hair or just let it down? The dragon females rarely style their hair”, Kaliyah said thinking of all the female dragons she had met before. They were beautiful but arrogant and they looked down on humans. She wondered how her life with them would be.“Whatever you want will be fine but you have to look presentable as you will finally be meeting the dragons today”, Rheagal replied. She was nervous and scared of what may happen today. Brenna had been silent and had done nothing since Kaliyah almost had a miscarriage, it made Rheagal think she was up to something.“I’ll leave my hair down then”, Kaliyah said, “Bring me the letter I wrote yesterday”.Rheagal w

Chapter: BLEEDINGThe following morning, the atmosphere of the palace was stained with worry and tension as news of Princess Kaliyah’s bleeding had spread in the palace. The maids and workers in the palace had already been warned to not spread the word outside the palace. Naturally, news of Kaliyah having a miscarriage was already in the air in the palace.In Kenna’s brightly decorated room, she was at the dresser while her maid was styling her hair. She was ecstatic at the news she heard. If she couldn’t get a dragon, Kaliyah would not also be given that privilege. The maid who was putting the pins suddenly stopped, “Milady, wouldn’t it be weird for you to dress up like this when such a shocking thing happened last night?”Kenna’s smile wavered a little and she turned to the maid, collected a pin from the maid’s hand and stabbed her in her arm, “Since when were you given the privilege to talk to me casually?”The maid stuttered and moved backward in fear as Kenna moved towards her.

Chapter: The ShamanAdolphus stared for a moment and then started laughing, “You want to learn our ways?”, he asked again.Aurora frowned but replied, “Yes. Teach me”.“You’re too fragile, besides a human can never live like a werewolf. Every wolf in this pack goes through intense training. You can’t go through that so we deem you unfit and unworthy”.“Where is your pack’s Shaman?”, She coolly asked suddenly.He looked at her wondering what she was up to; she always managed to look and act unbothered about certain things. He wondered if she was truly unbothered about most things.“A shaman?”, he asked again.“Yes, the Gritta pack has one so I assume this pack should have one as well. I want to meet him or her”, she said with all the confidence she could muster.“And what makes you think our shaman would want to see a human?”, he asked, his eyes boring into hers.“Shamans show no discrimination or biased attitude”, she spoke firmly.He chuckled again and it irked her.

Chapter: JealousyAurora couldn’t sleep well, she had been thinking about what Adolphus told her earlier. He told her she was unworthy. She was sad but deep down, she was happy that he didn’t mince his words. She wanted to prove to Lucian and prove to his pack that she was worthy, that she could do anything, and that she was capable of being a Luna because she was not giving up on Lucian anytime soon.While she was still thinking, she stood up from her bed and walked towards the window only to see Lucian walking towards the mansion. He really was beautiful and she couldn’t help but stare at how devilishly handsome he was under the moonlight. Lucian felt her gaze and had to really fight with everything within him not to look back up. He didn’t believe he could be this hooked; she was a human for goddess sake. His father was right; she was a weakness- a dangerous one.Aurora walked back to her bed, determined to start learning the things of the Gamma pack immediately after she woke up.The next day took

He didn’t know if he hated humans or not but he hoped Lucian would not reject her because he might never find a woman again.“Hi”, Aurora said and gave a weird smile all in an attempt to stop the awkward silence.“I’m Adolphus, you are?”, he decided to ask and strike up a conversation with her. After all, she was his friend’s mate.“I’m Aurora”, she replied.“Aurora”, he breathed, “Such a human name”.He was about to say something when she interrupted him, “Tell me, what is Prince Lucian like?”He was shocked by this question; he slowly smiled knowing that Lucian heard her question loud and clear from the car behind them.“That’s a very shocking question. Who’d think that you’re already interested in him? I thought humans hated us”, he said.“I won’t say I’m interested in him but I should know who he is, don’t you think?”, she repl

He wanted this to be over with. While Alpha Tidwulf was speaking, he was looking around his poorly decorated mansions. Lucian almost laughed when he saw a mini statue of the moon goddess. Did she really exist? Or was she punishing him by not giving him his soul mate? While he was lost in his thoughts, still looking around, the wind carried something, the air carried a scent. One of strawberries mixed with the smell of apples. His nose tried to trace where the scent was coming from till he finally face where it was coming from. It was coming from the entrance of the hall.

Her mother, once vibrant and full of life, lay frail on the bed, her skin pale against the white sheets. The rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor punctuated the silence, creating an unsettling soundtrack to the reality unfolding before them. Bridget’s father, Xavier, stood by the window, arms crossed, his face a mask of worry. Dr. Lawson entered the room, his expression serious yet gentle. "Bridget, Mr. Xavier," he began, pulling up a chair beside her mother's bed. "We need to talk about your mother’s condition." Bridget felt her heart race. "What’s happening, Doctor?" she asked, her voice trembling. Dr. Lawson took a deep breath, glancing at her mother, who looked at him with weary eyes.

Claudia and my sisters were still there, their faces etched with worry.I could see Claudia’s eyes darting nervously as I came closer, and I wondered if she was guilty. I took a deep breath and forced a calm demeanor. "They're running more tests," I said, my voice steady. "They're going to do a biopsy to determine the exact type of poison." I blurted out Claudia’s eyes widened, and she let out a small gasp. "Poison?" she repeated, her voice trembling. "Oh, my God. Who would do such a thing?" I met her gaze, searching for any sign of guilt. Her expression seemed genuine, but I couldn't be sure. "I don't know," I said, my voice flat. "But we're going to find out." I turn

The noise had come from downstairs, from the direction of the mansion's grand hall. I crept down the hallway, the old wooden floorboards creaking beneath my feet. As I neared the hall, I could hear frantic shouting. "Dad?" I called out, my voice barely a whisper. I pushed open the heavy oak door and froze. My father was slumped on the floor, clutching his chest, his face contorted in pain. Beside him, a shattered vase lay in pieces. "Nicholas," he gasped, "Help me... my pills..." "Dad!" I rushed to his side, dropping to his knees. "What happened?" "Chest... pain..." his father wheezed, barely able to speak. "In the drawer... get them..."

The sun peeked through the expansive glass windows of the luxurious mansion, casting a warm golden hue across the elegantly furnished living room. I stirred awake in the plush king-sized bed draped in silk sheets. As I opened my eyes, I took a moment to appreciate the opulence surrounding me—the intricate chandelier that sparkled like diamonds, the rich mahogany furniture, and the priceless art adorning the walls.I swung my legs over the side of the bed, feeling the coolness of the polished wooden floor beneath his feet. Stretching his arms, I let out a deep sigh, a mix of contentment and anticipation for the day ahead. After a quick shower, I dressed in a tailored suit, the fabric hugging my frame perfectly, a testament to my success and status.Descending the grand staircase, I admired the craftsmanship of the banister, each curve and detail a reflection of the wealth I had accumulated over the year

It was time to begin my rigid early morning routine.I threw the sheets off my body and padded across the plush carpet to the adjacent room.
