Following Noah and the shaman back to the midnight pack makes me revisit the past, my mind plunders on how much things have changed since the extinction of witches. This was the reason why I had left the midnight pack because I knew that there was a threat to my existence.

The pack hasn’t changed a bit, the mysterious clouds that lightened the days are still in the sky. The people are staring briefly at our car as we pass the streets, heading to the north.

I prepare myself mentally for whatever I am going to face with Maeve’s energy, I am aware that her energy has waxed stronger for her to be able to embed her tattoo on Cora’s neck.

The ruins that remain from the wrecking of the witch’s coven are livid, the memories refresh in my mind. As we near the covens, I feel Maeve’s energy. She must be expectant to see me here.

“We have banned people from coming here since Maeve’s energy was unlocked, we felt that it is safer for this area to be empty,” Noah says.

“As you should, Maeve’s ene

    The battle line is drawn and there is an unsettling feeling everywhere. The eeriness of silence is disrupted by the outpour of Maeve’s wicked laughter, I lay weakly on the floor. Maeve is unleashed now and it’s time for Maritsa to complete her mission - ending Maeve’s life will be a big point for Zane and me. But Maritsa is not active anymore, I can’t even feel her presence inside me.“Maritsa, where are you?” I call weakly. Not even an echo is heard, Maeve has already exited the building and probably heading for Zane’s pack. I feel like everything’s over and the wasted efforts of Alma hits my soul. “Help…” I mutter weakly. I try to get up but my body shakes vehemently, refusing to comply. Maritsa must have abandoned me, she has been lying to me all this while. What if she’s in alliance with Maeve and only wants to use me to unlock her friend?“Cora!” a familiar voice yells out my name.“Lily?” I manage to mutter.“Yes, we are here to help you,” she cries.Behind her are Luna Aria

    “Cora, you have to get up, they’re after us!” Alma screams at me but I can’t do anything but wince in pain.“I’m so weak, Alma,” I tell her.She tries to help me up but I helplessly fall again, the hoarse voices are getting closer to us and we might be caught at any moment. Our plans will fail miserably if we are caught and there will be no escape for me from the evil that Alpha Ezequiel and Luna Aria have for me. I look at Alma with tears in my eyes, she’s trying to help me out despite my weakened condition.“Alma, listen to me, you’ll have to leave without me,” I tell her.She looks at me like I’ve gone crazy, “Cora, I’m not leaving you here. All our plans will be of no use if I leave you here to die, come on get up, we’ll leave this place together.”But I was just shaking my head like I wasn’t going to listen to her, her safety was what mattered to me. I grab her hands in an attempt to stand up but my body system seems to be rejecting every ounce of attempt I make.“Alma, can’t you

    We watch anxiously as the footstep comes closer, not knowing what else to do. Alma closes her eyes, it is obvious that she has accepted her fate and is ready for the outcome. A guard with a heavily built stature enters, his face looking grim.“Dash! You scared me!” Alma exclaims after his face is revealed.I look at Alma in confusion, did she know who he is?“Alma, I was beginning to get worried. You took so long in there and my partner will soon return, are you not done yet?” Dash asks.I sigh in relief at learning that he is Alma’s boyfriend and the one who let her in. “I’m sorry, I just finished talking with her now,” Alma says.“We have to go and get ready for the escape plan tomorrow night. Cora, please be strong, Alma and I will return tomorrow night to help you escape,” he assured me.“I’ll be waiting,” I say.Alma stuffs more herb inside my mouth, she also applied some on the open cuts. The pains sting but I simply endure the pains.“This will help you feel better by the time

    They drag me to the dungeon, I can’t even retaliate against them because of how weak I am. Alpha Ezequiel and Luna Aria follow them behind, they throw me on the floor when we enter the dungeon.“She will stay here until I order you to release her, she will be denied food and she will be isolated. Nobody is permitted to see her unless I approve of it, this will be your punishment, Cora,” Alpha Ezequiel commands.They hang me on a chain, and my two hands are dragged out and held up with the chains. The tip of my toes are only what touches the cold floor, this reminds me of the man that Zane was punishing. Now I know how it feels to be punished by the Alpha.But this time around I feel like I’m being punished wrongly, Lily bullied me first and triggered my Alpha wolf to emerge and suppress her which was beyond my control. “Bring the nightshade, it will make her more vulnerable and ready for our plans,” Luna Aria suggests.Alpha Ezequiel says, “Bring the nightshade and cut her five times

  • A Luna For The Ruthless Alpha    30. Punishment

    I am not feeling good today as I sit down on the bed and stare at nothing, my face is messed up from constantly crying last night. I can’t even use my phone because it is part of my seized belongings and now, I’m being pressured to give up my marriage for Lily’s happiness. I would have regretted coming here if not for what I had in mind to achieve, unlocking and bonding with Maritsa. Then unlocking Maeve and finishing her off finally.Remembering this reason alone, I’m determined to be strong enough to complete this. Standing up, I make up the bed and go to look for something to eat. Outside the room, I walk sluggishly to the kitchen. The servants are working busily and preparing the morning chores, Alma is supervising them so I walk up to her.“I’m hungry,” I whine to her.She chuckles and orders a servant to dish out my meal, a counter is cleared for me to eat there. But it seems like the day swore to be worse, Lily storms in right as I’m about to take a spoonful.“Wow, if it isn’t

    After being mocked by the servants and Lily, I run off to the backyard to wipe off the smelly eggs from my body. Tears stream down my face as I look at my stained clothes and skin, Zane would never allow such things to happen to me if he was here.“You have to be strong, Cora. All we have to do is find a way to connect with Maritsa and defeat Maeve… easy peasy,” I murmur to myself.I pick a dry rag and soak it in clean water, then massage it on my skin to clear the stains but they don’t come off.“You need a hot bath if you want those stains to come off,” a voice says from behind me.“Alma?” I am dumbfounded to see Alma smiling comfortably at me, so weird.“Cora, it’s been a while,” she says.We sit on the grass to discuss. It is surprising to see how kind Alma is to me, unlike last time when she mistreated me however she liked.“You’ve changed a lot, Alma. This is unlike you to be nice to me,” I tell her.She giggles and picks a grass, her fingers twirling around the grass before she
