AvaIt was only when I got back to my room that I gasped and cried. My body shook as I stared in disbelief. I carried my son in my arms as if I could protect him from what awaited us all. Was it possible that I could take him and leave?It made sense now why Camille hugged me, she knew.My wolf growled and stirred inside of me and I shook it away with tears. It was too early for a tantrum like this. This wasn't how things were supposed to be.Overwhelmed by everything, I stepped outside in need of air. The cool spring breeze brushed the tops of the trees in the garden and calmed down the rest of my wolf. A smile almost touched my lips. “Ava!” I heard his voice. It sounded like dèjá vu but there was no denying it was the same man that held my heart, once held my heart.I didn't turn to him, I began to walk away but he didn't stop calling after me, “Ava, please wait.” He walked up behind me and placed an arm around my waist. “Let's talk about this. I know you're upset, but don't do an

LeonIt felt like my eyes were playing tricks on me, she couldn't have been there. She was supposed to be dead, taken away or something, not standing beside this man like she belonged there, as though they had known each other for years, and she was smiling.For just a moment her gaze collided with mine and she froze, not knowing what to do, her eyes wide with shock and fear. She looked so beautiful, with her long red hair falling loosely around her shoulders.Then she looked away from me, like I wasn't there, like I didn't exist. And for a second everything came crashing down.My men stared at me, and so did my beta. Each one of us stunned by the scene, unable to move.It felt as though they were waiting for my reaction. I couldn't do anything but gawk. The pain was excruciating as the memories kept flooding back to my brain as I relived those moments. I felt like an idiot.“You still stayed” Alpha Reuben spoke up forcing me to take my gaze away from the woman in front of me and

Leon Soon the gates were opened and a man who I assumed was their leader stood there, his gaze unwavering from mine in an effort to intimidate me with that icy stare he sent my way. “Disarm the traps” He whispered to the one who stood near him but I heard it. His people looked at him as if wanting to confirm if he was sure, and he nodded at them. He walked out of the gates and stood a few steps away from me , staring straight ahead of him in order not to show any emotions of uncertainty, even when his eyes flicked down towards me every now and then and his lips pursed for a split second into a thin smile that wasn’t exactly friendly but certainly didn’t look threatening either. “To what do we owe this surprise visit,” His voice sounded as cold as ice itself, “It’s rare for us to receive visitors from outside our lands.” He paused before continuing, “Unless it’s a trap? You know the rules, whoever comes here is not allowed to leave without my permission… unless, you want to

Ava“There are men outside” The guard who rushed in between us spoke.My eyes widened, and so did those of Alpha Reuben.“What men?”“We don't know who they are, they are seven in number including a spokesperson who claims to be their king” The guard continued.I don't know if it was at the mention of the word “King” or if it was something else but something inside of me shifted. My breath hitched and my hands trembled slightly as I gripped the sleeves of my dress. I wasn't quite sure why, but there had always been something about this place that suddenly made me feel uneasy. “Take Ava with you, I will see the men” Alpha said to the guard, before turning to me. “Follow me him please.”“I want to come with you,” I said.He shook his head slightly “You stay here, I can handle them” He told me.Before I could protest further, he pushed me gently toward the guard and marched away.I stood there watching his retreating figure, unsure of what I was supposed to do. When he was gone, I tur

Leon“What?” My beta stared in surprise. So did the few men I had chosen to go with me. We were seven altogether.“There must be a mistake somewhere your majesty” He looked stunned. I stood there watching him struggle for words that would help make what he thought was happening right. No mistake would explain what I had decided.“There is no mistake. We leave right now. I had already asked the other guards to pack what we would need” My voice didn't waver despite how much my heart thundered inside of me as I said those words. The others in our team were silent, they all seemed afraid to speak as well. My beta, and even some other guards I did not know, just watched me, as if I could tell them anything else.“But there are people out there who want to kill us” My beta protested softly but forcefully. His eyes were full of fear. His mouth opened slightly as if he couldn't decide whether or not to close it again. He kept glancing nervously around as he spoke. “And it's dark outside

LeonWe lost our peace, our safety, our homes, our loved ones, the land we've worked for for centuries. Our lives were taken away without warning and I didn't know how this could have happened, but it did, and I had to live with the consequences of the war. More clans got hurt, it felt as though there was some sort of sorcery that was trying to kill every single one of us at once. We were all scared to death and I think everyone realized that they were running out of time. I was the only clan in the south left untouched by everything and I don’t really understand why I was spared. Everyone had run to me, every clan.My kingdom was overcrowded with survivors, with people who had been injured and in need of help. Some of them would die because of the sickness, supplies were running low, herbal medicine wasn’t enough, and I still couldn’t give them what they needed. Everyone was so desperate.Everyone knew it was all a matter of time before we would lose the war, they could feel it

Roman“What the hell is going on here?” I yelled at the workers who seemed startled by my presence.“Your highness!” One of them bowed his head as he continued working without even trying to hide it.“What are you doing on my land?” I growled with anger.“Prince Levi hired us…” I didn't wait for him to finish speaking, I began storming off to look for him. Levi was messing with me.And not quite long, I found him near the training grounds, surrounded by a few members of our clan, his posture loose, arrogant as ever, a cup in his hand as if the world had not shifted off its axis. As if my beast wasn’t clawing me apart from the inside out.The moment I saw him, something in me snapped. My wolf surged forward, teeth bared, rage blazing hot and bright. It took everything in me not to shift on the spot.“Levi”He didn't move.I stalked toward him, each step felt heavy, deliberate, like the calm before an execution.“Levi” I called out to him again after he had ignored my question and tu

Renee“What are you doing here?” Rosalie didn't seem pleased to see me, as her eyes narrowed, her mouth pulled into a thin line, and she stared at me with disapproval.After everything with Roman, I didn't wait around, not for him. I took matters into my own hands“I thought I would come say hi” I plastered a fake smile on my face.She scoffed “You're not welcome to stay in this house”I proceeded to feign hurt and surprise. “Why? Why is that? It's been almost three weeks since we last saw each other. I thought the two of us could...” My voice trailed off, but my words weren't lost on her. “My husband is out of reach!” She snapped. Her face turned red, and I noticed beads of sweat glistening on her forehead as her temper flared even more.I swallowed hard. “Rosalie, I am not here for your husband. I just thought we could catch up, as sisters-in-law do. It doesn't have to mean anything. We both love our husbands. Don't you?” I pleadedShe stared at me for a while as if debatin

Unknown POVI hated him. He always acted like he was better than everyone else, but he was only just lucky. Yet it didn't stop him from raising his shoulders as if he was perfect. His flaws that were visible as neon lights were easily overlooked and it pissed me off even more.I wanted to tear him down, I wanted to show them his flaws, to show them how ugly he was but man was I wrong. If I thought I was fast, he was faster and if I thought I was smart, he was smarter. I was always second best. I didn't stand a single chance. So I withdrew into my shell and then I began to plan ways I could hurt, and bring him total misery. I didn't want to see him happy.I remember the first time I saw her. I didn't know she was with him and when I eventually did, I remembered how I watched them from afar, that night, it was the first time I was seeing her that close.Red.That was the color of her dress.Red like flames dancing in fire. Like a sea of rubies reflecting the moonlight. Like a firestorm

RomanMy eyes lingered on her lips, her breath fanned my face and I almost gave into the temptation of leaning closer.But I did the unexpected. I shoved her out.I shoved her right out, and I expected her to give up but Celestria was stubborn, she returned some hours later. “I brought you soup,” She said as she stood in front of my door, holding a tray at the same time giving me a scrutinizing look. I knew what it meant. She wanted to know if I was okay or not. I couldn’t blame her for that either. I was pretty sure I wasn’t supposed to do a lot of things. My body ached from the anger I still felt and what was worse than the shame that came after vulnerability? I had always promised myself that I would be strong for my mother but I wasn't.Yet I couldn't explain the exhaustion settled into an easy slumber. It had taken a long time to fall asleep last night. The nightmares were never as bad, but they would make it hard for me to get enough rest.“Can I at least come in?”asked Celest

ReneeI thought we were having an honest conversation, I didn't mean to upset him but he left.He didn't come back for me so I took myself home.After I got back home, he still wasn't back, the guards said they hadn't seen him. Yet fifteen minutes, the door slammed open and he stood there, panting and staring at me like it was a crime scene for all of ten seconds before collapsing on the couch next to me with an exhausted sigh. He looked terrible. His hair was sticking up wildly in every possible direction and I wondered if I should get him some aspirin. Or maybe a glass of water. “Are you… are you alright?” He didn't respond, instead, his eyes flickered back and forth between me and the clock, trying to determine what I couldn't understand.Then he buried his face deeper into the sofa cushions and groaned, “Fuck!”He said fuck, like the most amazing thing he had ever heard. Maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part, but as soon as I heard him use such a word, the whole situa

RomanAfter we left my father’s Celestria seemed possessed by something, she kept staring at me and even when I caught her looking, she didn’t look away like she normally would.“What?”She didn’t answer, instead she kept staring at me as if she was trying to dissect me with her eyes, and I just stared back, feeling conscious and uncomfortable under her probing eyes and I didn’t want her looking at me like this any more than she already was. “You…” She trailed off as if deciding to say what she wanted to say or not. “Nothing”’ is what I guess she eventually settled on saying, which was better than nothing, but she didn’t sound satisfied with it. It didn’t quite satisfy me either, but that would have to do for now.“Okay” I said. The word fell out of my mouth before I had even thought about what I was going to say.I stood up from the bed “Where are you going?” Her voice followed me and I turned back to her, surprised that she'd question something so mundane as where to go.“I'm gon

Emily’s POV The King’s body was brought back and he was badly stabbed. The seer was trying her best to bring him back to consciousness and I just sat there crying. What if he died? And he never gets to see his child? Why did I lie that the child wasn't his? Currently sitting beside him on the bed, the seer said it was left for him to respond to the antidote or not. I needed more than that, I had been a crying mess for a while and all I wanted was for her to console me, I needed her to tell me that her antidote was going to work and not keep me in suspense. I took his hands into mine “Hey, I need you to wake up please, I am so sorry that I ran away, sorry I said that the child wasn't yours. Maybe when you wake up we will talk this over, because right now, we don’t have time. You need to tell me what to do. Please, wake up!” I cried, as tears poured down my cheeks again. His skin felt cool under my fingers. I felt guilty for hurting him. I should be the one waking up with a broken ar

Luka's POV I know the child was mine, it didn't make sense why Emily would want to hurt me so bad, was it payback? I couldn't tell. “They plan on attacking us tonight” the seer's voice broke through my thoughts. They are the group of Lycans led by their King and they conceal themselves with masks and dark magic but luckily for you, I have made antidotes that would help against their infected bites. You King Luka will get your allies from the outside world and my people and soldiers will get ready. We will move our women and children to the cave at the mountain top and the women who can fight will volunteer as soldiers as well” she continued, her calm and soothing tone calming the anger boiling in the pit of my stomach. “This new army that we have formed is strong enough to defeat them.” I nodded at her words, knowing she knew what I was thinking. Her eyes were sad but not apologetic or regretful, just sadder, tired. The whole town was thrown into total chaos, children and adults ali

Emily’s POV “You thought we were fools this whole time? you planned on what? keep using my brother? Do you know how much he cared about you? All you did was lie to us Sara!” Carolyn scoffed! “Your name is not even Sara” tears streamed down my face as I sobbed uncontrollably into my pillow. What had I done wrong to deserve the anger of these amazing people? Why do I always mess up good things? Why was Luka here? What brought him hear? “I am sorry, I panicked and got scared. I am sorry Carolyn. I didn't think I was ever going to see him again and I wasn't using anyone please” I pleaded. My voice was shaking from crying so hard. I don't know if I will be able to get out any words from my mouth now without crying. I heard a sigh come from the couch before she spoke again “Sara, I mean Emily, I understand why you panicked, but that doesn't excuse everything else” My heart stopped at the sound of her voice. “Right now you have two men out there to face and the last thing they want

Luka’s POV“They were a young couple and they got married and they started a generation of a new kind, the type that was special. Soon like generations, more came, and more left. We honestly thought they had gone into extinct until now. They can't be working alone, not after all this time. They had to be working with someone”Even after I had gone back to home from Lancha, those words kept replaying in my head, and I had nothing to say about them.I needed to find out who these special people were working with and why they were doing what they kept doing to our kind.Was there a previous problem before now? I needed to know.Now my sexual life has been suffering since I got back from Lancha. The thoughts of Emily filled my dreams and they were dreams of us having sex and I ended up masturbating more than I should.For example, last night I dreamt of thrusting into Emily aggressively until I could feel her body trembling beneath me. My cock felt like it was about to burst through my sk

Luka’s POV “I apologize for my people's stare, they are not used to seeing people from the outside world” Alpha Luke's voice broke through my thoughts as we were returning back to his home. He wasn't lying, the people's stare bore holes into my back and I could tell that I was not welcome there. They didn't appreciate my presence and they didn't fail to show it. “When was the last time you had someone from the outside?” I randomly asked. I didn't know why I did it and I probably would have regretted it if he noticed but something compelled me to ask. He paused in his trek before answering me “Months, we found a woman in the woods around our land, she was homeless so we gave her a place. “Didn't you think she was a spy or something?” I couldn't help but point out. It felt weird that they allowed some stranger on their land like that. Wasn't I also a stranger? “You should have seen her eyes, she looked too vulnerable. You'll get to meet her today at dinner. I've never seen anyone

Luka’s POV I was standing on the balcony when I saw a figure pass by immediately. I don't know what was crazier. The fact that this person had blonde hair or the fact that her smell had just hit me caused me to go through a wave of. Could it be? No! it couldn't right? I didn't realize when I started following the figure but the closer I got the more the smile persisted but there was no sign of any blonde hair anywhere. “Going somewhere?” A female voice called out and I came face-to-face with Princess Carolyn. She had a suspicious look on her face as she eyed me up and down. “Yes,” I answered in a small voice before I turned away. This was my fault for not checking who was around first! But I was so curious, I couldn't help myself. What if I really did find something interesting? Well, maybe. Maybe it's nothing at all. But I know what I had perceived. It had to be Emily. “I mean no, I… I just thought I saw someone there” I managed to answer as I quickly tried my best to regain
