Maverick's POV I stood in front of my mirror in the room. Liam and Chloe stood by the door with their arms folded. I could already see the tears welling up in Chloe's eyes, but there was really nothing I could do about it. I turned to look at them, and I smiled.“You don't really have to go, you know?” Chloe begged.“I have to.” I responded gently, pulling her in for a hug. She cried in my arms, holding me very tightly. “Who knows? I might come back home safely.” I shrugged, caressing her hair. It didn't make her feel any better, rather she just cried the more in my arms. I couldn't bear to see her cry, so I pulled back from the hug. “Regardless of whatever happens, we have a plan, and we'll stick to it.” I said, holding her hand. “It might just work out fine.” “Where did this sudden optimism emanate from?” Liam asked, and I chuckled, looking at him with a shrug. “You can still run away, you know?” Chloe suggested.“Nah, that'll just make me look guilty.” I pushed the idea out

Maverick's POV It was the eve of my last day in court. The day that would determine my life from here on, and I was spending it with Chloe and Liam. Blue was nice enough not to ask for it since we had spent the past week together. Despite the fake news that rolled out everyday from several blogs and stations, we moved from gala to gala, from party to party, from my dorm to her house, and we had fun in every place possible. We sat under the night sky, somewhere in the woods, just enjoying the night air. I wasn't convinced about getting free of this. In fact, I was hoping that it'd just blow over, and they'd forget about me. Having my life under scrutiny and in danger by people who believe that I killed someone I don't even know was something I wasn't interested in facing. “Maverick.” Chloe called, and I turned my face to look at her.“Huh?” I asked, trying to enjoy what could be my last night in the world. “No matter what happens tomorrow, we'll always be here for you.” She assure

Blue's POV When I woke up, Maverick was no longer by my side. I could not see any of his belongings, so I knew he had left. I sighed, thinking deeply about how well he had gotten to me. I wasn't thinking straight anymore. I just have to save him in any way possible. I caused this whole mess, and it has somehow spiralled out of control. But how else did I expect it to play out? That he'll just be set free. I was plagued by several guilty thoughts when the door opened and Maverick walked in with a tray. I was shocked.“I thought you had left.” I groaned, sitting up as he walked towards me.“Can't leave you when I've not fed you physical food.” Maverick muttered, gently placing the tray on my lap. There was bread, tea, croissants, and butter. “There was no one downstairs, and I had the whole kitchen to myself, so I made you something to eat.” Maverick muttered. “Thank you baby.” I muttered, leaning in. He met me halfway, and we kissed. He took one croissant, and went to pack his ba

Maverick's POV The ride home was very quiet on my part. I just sat in the car, staring outside the window. It happened suddenly, but I couldn't say I was shocked. There was no way I expected them not to try anything to get me down in jail by all means. One of the other wolves was in my car and was bringing it back to the pack house. We left in numbers so no one would be able to attack us. Allison kept checking in on me through the rearview mirror, and I'd always smile every time. This was the longest drive we've had back to the pack house.Blue on the other hand was receiving calls, and kept on debunking everything they had to say about me.“C'mon, don't tell me that you're too stupid to see that that's AI, it'd break my heart.” She said to one.“Do better, you really don't think that one stab to the chest would have done that to Billy. Not even a silver knife can do that to an Alpha of his rank, and why the fuck was he just standing and watching?” When we arrived at the pack hous

Blue's POV Luca was the one blowing up my phone with calls. I could only hope that Maverick didn't see who was constantly calling me. I could already guess why Luca was calling me. Afterall, I had just told his investor friend to go to hell.“Allison, reduce the volume of the music.” I said, calling Luca. He picked up the call before it could even ring. “Blue, I've been trying to reach you.” He muttered over the phone. “Yeah. I saw that.” I said nonchalantly. “Why's that?” “I wanted to apologize about how things went the last time.” Luca said, and I frowned, definitely not expecting him to even talk about that. “Okay?”“Look, I'm really sorry.” Luca said, sighing. “I know that I've gone wrong in several ways, and I can't begin to atone for each of them one by one…” There was a short pause before he continued speaking. “But, I'll apologize for them every day of my life till my last if I have to.” He said, and I chuckled. “It's okay, Luca.” I whispered. “I didn't know that tha

Maverick's POV It was easier to see Blue's baby bump now. Her stomach grew bigger by the minute. I thought she'd use a surrogate since her duties as Alpha might be so important to her, but she shocked me. She was still in my embrace, and I kept patting her head. I had just finished with Tiffany, and the plan might just be solid, although it was all dependent on luck and chance. “Why do you think my life's in danger?” I asked calmly, disengaging from the hug. “Richard… my brother…. He's trying to get revenge.” Blue shrugged. “I thought he was headed here.” Her phone was blowing up, but she kept ending the calls. At some point, I was worried that she'd slam the phone in my face. “I'm just happy to see that you're not in danger.” She whispered, holding my arms. I scoffed at her words.“I'm always in danger. You just don't know it.” I said, holding her waist. She hugged me again, and I hugged her back. I might just be the definition of everything I never thought I'd be. I could not

LAST CHAPTER.SCARLETT'S POVIt had been a month since I lost everything. Thirty long days and nights that felt like years. A month since everything that mattered to me was ripped out of my hands. My heart still felt empty, like someone had reached inside and plunged it out.I had lost my child. Our child. The only piece of hope I had been clinging to during all the chaos. I miscarried after the Battle of Castmere. One moment I was screaming Franklin’s name, watching him fall, and the next moment there was blood running down my legs. My own voice still echoed in my head, the panicked cry, the feeling of my hands shaking, trying to stop the bleeding while the world burned around me.I lost our baby, and I almost lost him too.Now I sit by the edge of the bed every day, staring out through the window. The sky moved on without me. People passed by below. Life outside the walls went on like nothing had happened. But inside me, it was quiet, dead, like a burned-out shell. Nothing had colou

Scarlett's POV Tenebris approached me with so much calm, like he was trying to savour his prey before pouncing on me. Zion’s death shook me to the core. Although he got evil when I never expected, it didn't make him less of the man that I knew at the beginning. My knees immediately became weak, and I couldn't even try to escape. Escaping would be like the dumbest thing to do at this point, because there's nowhere for me to escape to. Drayton had been knocked out, and Tenebris was approaching with a smirk on his face. Michelle was screaming, shaking Zion and begging him to wake up. Tears flowed freely down my eyes as it all happened around me. There was nothing to be happy about. Too many people have died because of me. Too many people have died because the Demon King wants revenge for a death that happened thousands of years ago. I was not so deep in thoughts, until I realized that Tenebris was standing in front of me, hovering over me. “Hello, moon lady.” He said, smiling gent

Zion’s POV“Ah… I really never saw this coming.” Tenebris growled. “One of my kind betraying me?”“You banished me, remember?” I shot back at him, holding the spear like my life depended on it. I never really mastered the use of spears, but from the way he paced back, he must have a deep fear of this one, and it should be enough to keep him away. “You were banished. That makes sense.” He growled. “Now, leave my way with that thing, and I'll let you back into the fold, and increase your rank too.” “Sorry, but it's kinda late for that already.” I growled. “I want to spill your blood badly.” “You have a better chance of getting into the Demon realm without my approval than landing one slight hit on me.” He mocked me. “I guess we'll see then.” I smirked, holding the spear that I had gotten through sweat and blood. Extracting its ore was difficult, but the King of the East seemed very keen in helping. He eventually told me that the moon goddess had appeared to him in a dream, commandi

Drayton’s POV I held my sword tight as we charged at Tenebris who had now completely taken over Franklin's body. His eyes were nothing but black pits, his smile cruel, and the storm itself seemed to bow to him. Every step he took echoed loudly like it was not an open space with enough people around, and for the first time in years, I felt fear coil in my chest.The ten royal guards rushed forward first with their aswords drawn. Their faces showed no hesitation. They were the finest of my warriors, handpicked to guard the kingdom at the cost of their lives if needed.Tenebris didn’t even flinch. He stood with his sword low, almost lazily, waiting for them. It looked like he was about to have dessert before dinner.The first guard reached him with a fast and heavy strike. Tenebris tilted his head, almost bored, then lifted his sword in an effortless motion. The clash rang through the hall like thunder. A heartbeat later, Tenebris slid his sword across the guard’s chest. The man gaspe

Scarlett's POV I was staring at Franklin, but it didn't look like him. He looked like he had become nonexistent in a body that was supposedly his. He looked lost, tired, and angry. His eyeballs had gone totally black. There was not even a single white part. His cloth had turned white, and although he killed every single person outside the gates, there was not a stain of blood on his cloth. He had a vicious smirk on his face that made him scarier.The way he held his sword showed that he only had one intention; to kill. “What do you want?” I asked.“You of course, baby girl.” He said with a smirk that made my skin crawl with fear. The dragon turned to look at me, shaking his head.“Don't speak to him. Let's not allow any horrible energy.” He said, and I just shrugged. Michelle and Thane flanked me on both sides. Thane was the only one holding a sword. Michelle on the other hand held a gun, while I was defenseless. They were treating me like a child that didn't know his way. “Tene

Tenebris’ POV“Where's my horse?” I asked, feeling intense anger. I had enough time.“We have prepared one for you, but wouldn't you rather prefer a horse?” North asked , and I shrugged.“I asked for a horse, don't play on my intelligence by suggesting anything else.” I growled, and he hurriedly nodded. “I'll take you outside to where it is.” Timber said, walking past me. I turned my back, and I walked with him to where the horse was. I could feel heaviness around the place, but I wasn't so sure about it. I touched the horse, and its eyes turned black. I caressed its back, and that was when I was sure that there were people lurking around with intentions to harm me. “Come out of hiding now!” I snapped, and Timber moved back against the wall. About fifteen soldiers with void in their eyes stepped forward out of nowhere. I scoffed at the sight of them.“Something to test my skills with.” I scoffed, holding the sword as they came at me. The first one came at me, faster than any norm
