NanaLisa had told me how everything played out with Alexa, and unfortunately, the potion didn't work.Today was the D-day—the day that was going to determine a lot of fates here. And I wasn't going to let Hector succeed."Alexa," I said through our mind link. I had been keeping watch for any suspicious movements all through the night, and there were none. So I needed to find out if Alexa was okay."Hey, Nanny," her voice was joyful. I was almost tempted to ask if she was aware she could possibly die today.But wait—did she just call me Nanny? Was that a slip of the tongue, or did she really know the meaning of it?"Alexa?" I called again."Yes, Nanny," her happy voice erupted again."Wait... does that mean you remember me?""Yes!" she shouted."Oh my, you can't believe how happy I am, Alexa," I said, now in tears."Me too, Nana," she admitted.But I needed to make sure she had remembered everything. Who knows—it might be partial remembrance."What pack were we from, Alexa?""Bright
AlexaI didn't know what to respond to Kendell when he asked me what Hector meant by "mark."I was scared he wouldn't believe me. I wouldn't believe me either. How can I say, oh, I went to see Hector and I didn't know what happened. The following morning, I just saw his mark?That wouldn't make sense.I sighed as I sat on the cold floor. I couldn't even afford the luxury of a chair here.The worms in my tummy were already using my intestines to play. My pups were equally as hungry as I was.Just then, the door to the dungeon creaked open, and a smile plastered on my face."Lisa," I smiled joyfully. I never thought I'd be so excited to see a wolf in my life."How's Nana?" I asked after releasing her from my embrace."In the maids’ quarters, resting," she said, as she released some folded stuff from the gown she wore. It was purple liquid."What's this?" I asked, closing my nose from the stench of it."Your key to remembrance," she smiled as she placed it on the floor, turning to the ot
KiaWe planned to come tonight, so would head back to the Vampire Kingdom by moon fall.Undetected. Fast. And quiet. That was the goal. But we didn't prepare to meet with an army of warriors. It seemed as if the whole werewolf force was here.Our plans were to get what was required—Dexter going in, while I kept guard outside—but then George caught me and led me back to Kendell.And now he was asking me to fight by their side."Uhm... I..." my palms started to sweat and I just needed to make an excuse. I couldn't afford to stay here. Hector might see me as a threat tomorrow, and Dexter might just as well add lies to the story. "The thing is, I'm married, Alpha, and we are leaving for good," I stated as I watched him stare at me with unbelief in his eyes.Right now, I didn't care if he believed me or not—I just needed a way out."Coward. That is what you are and will always be. I don't want to cross paths with you again, Kia. Silver Wolves have disowned you, and it's for your own good.
KendellDamn the Prince. What the hell was he planning to do with Alexa?"George!" I shouted, walking around my chambers.Alexa didn't even answer my question."Yes, Alpha," he appeared behind the doors with a frown on his face."You could have simply called and not shouted my name," he said as he approached me."It's Hector. He's planning something bad for Alexa and Nana," I said, trying to keep myself from exploding.George was silent as he crumpled the map in his hands. "I say we should attack soon—tonight, in fact."I shook my head at that. "No, George. I heard Alexa saying Hector had sent some spies to get something here, so beware of any suspicious movements. If you see anyone unfamiliar, let me know."He nodded at that. "So, we would take back their spies' heads as a gift to the Salamancas, right?""You are right, George." I sighed as I sat on the throne, running my hand through my hair. I don't think I can survive it if anything bad happens to Alexa."How many packs have given
LucyWhat such wrong timing Selene has. Just when my life was beginning to make sense, and I was bonding with Hector, she decided she wanted to see me. I was mumbling as I dragged my luggage along the muddy grounds, pushing it out of the puddles.At least I wasn't baby-sitting a grown woman.But why does Selene need me?After making an excuse back in Silver Wolves to go see my mother, I had met up with Vivian, my sister. That wench had believed in love so much that it caused her a lot of heartaches.Don't fall in love and rule the world—but she wouldn't listen, and I guess I was feeling something towards the Vampire Prince.She had helped her get back into the palace, while I spent time training to be a witch. KENDELL had eaten more than he could chew, and when the price of my sister's return cost her her true love, we didn’t object to that, thinking it was Kendell. And now it ended up being Kael. Only the moons know how she's doing now.I had to get her out of Silver Wolves. She coul
AlexaI need to tell Kendell of this recent development, but I couldn't seem to, within the confines of this dungeon.I muttered to myself as I stared at the dark space. It was such a foolish mistake. I should have been more careful, but I wasn't—and now I'm caught. "Alexa, where are you?" a voice erupted in my head. "Nana, is that you?" I asked, glad at least someone had remembered me. "No, Luna. It's me, Lisa. I saw when the guards dragged you away..." she spoke, her voice etched with worry. "Hector revealed his true colors," I simply said. Not that I was shocked he did, but a part of me was still perplexed by that. "And I just got the final herb for your potion." I frowned at that. Wrong timing indeed. "Does Nana know I'm here?""No, Your Highness. I wanted to confirm your whereabouts first," she admitted. "That's alright. Please keep her safe, and I also believe help is coming soon.""I will find a way to bring the potion to you," Lisa said before our mind link got disconne
