LOGIN~Elvira~ They both nodded… but I could tell by their wide eyes that it still wasn't clear to them. "You should come down for dinner," Zachary urged, resting his face on my shoulder. "It's two days since you have been sleeping." "What?" I gasped, snapping my head up in shock. "Two days?" "Yes!" Rosaline replied. What the heck? My mind spun. I didn't know I was unconscious for two full days. "It's Dad," Zachary added pushing back and sitting up on his knees. "He purposely put you to sleep with a spell. He said your body needed to heal from trauma and then you will take a bath in the ancestral lake when you wake up to help your wolf." "I see," I replied slowly. I reached inward, trying to contact Val through our bond, but I hit a brick wall…no response. I seriously need to speak to Selene and Magnus then, because I don't feel complete…My body felt unnaturally quiet…far too calm…like something vital was missing from inside me. At first, I thought this numb
~Elvira~"You're awake," a voice spoke up as soon as I opened my eyes.I followed the voice up…it was Magnus, the man Selene had introduced as my biological father…he was holding my hands up in his…but his hands were shaking.I looked up to his face again…his eyes were red. Weird.They were brown when I was introduced to him…he had curly, full hair, combed all back with grey streaks in them stopping at his neck. He was good-looking…appearing to be in his early forties.I noticed a body leaned forward, and I left staring at my father to see it was Selene…something was wrong with her face. I have never seen her look vulnerable before…her eyes were sad..What's wrong? I thought looking at the two of them in confusion. No one had said a word again as if they’re waiting for me to say something…"Yes…I’m…I feel calm," I replied… but my voice came out so cracked.I tried to sit up…but a whimper from the door made me look in that direction. Kira! She was resting on the door…her whole bod
~Elvira~ The woman followed him out then stopped and turned back toward me…arching an eyebrow. "I said, let's go!" she snapped. "I can't move, remember?" I replied with frustration. "I tried earlier!" She rolled her eyes and huffed. "You can now," she said waiting by the open door. "What?" I hesitated…then slowly extended my right leg outward…It moved...the paralysis was somehow gone…I swung my other leg out and limped out of the vehicle. The woman stepped in to grab my arm to steady me as my weight settled onto my injured leg. "Woah..." The word slipped from my lips as I took in the surrounding landscape. Green fields stretched in every direction round the estate…ahead of the pathway stood a towering mansion…near the grand entrance, two guards clad in full-length coats stood watch covered from head to toe. Then the front doors opened... A figure in a sweeping purple gown ran out of the building… My heart stopped. I recognized the face instantly. I cov
~Elvira~ Pain split my head as l forced my eyes open to see i was sitting inside a moving vehicle….from the layout of the seats…I gathered it was a truck. I looked down to my hands...they were bound with tape… A body was slumped over on me, I leaned closer straining my vision until the face came into focus. "Kira?" I rasped… I dragged my bound wrists across the gap between us and shook her shoulder...her body swayed under my touch but she didn't stir… Panic flared in me…i pressed closer listening until the faint beat of her heart sounded in my ears and her breath touched my cheek. Goddess, thank God! She was still alive. I had no idea where we were, but the sound of the engine and the throbbing under my feet told me we were speeding toward an unknown destination. Who hit us? Who dragged us into this vehicle? Where were they taking us? Was my stepfather behind this? Fear shook my body... given the turn of events at the party had his anger boiled over eno
~Gabriel~He shrieked in pain, collapsing to the side while holding his leg... Roland flinched back in terror apparently seeing I wasn’t here to play."You must have gone mad, Gabriel!""Oh, I am just getting started!" I snarled. "Roland, you are the one who has been running wild for too long! How dare you hide the murder of your ex-mate in your pack instead of bringing this bastard to justice?!" I pointed at Stephen, who was writing on the ground…screaming in pain. "You covered for him when you knew he killed Mandy! And you dared to stand in front of the Council in my territory and claim it was a lie?!"I turned to my Beta. "Cole, get Calvin to confess!"The moment Stephen heard Calvin's name, he froze. "That's in the past! Why are you bringing that up now?!"I brought my gun up to my mouth, kissed the cold barrel and smirked at him. "Elvira cannot let it go. She wants revenge for her mother's murder. So no, it's not in the past, Roland." I pointed the gun straight at Roland's
~Gabriel~The journey was fast! Within an hour, our convoy reached the territory of Rivermoon…the tracker Manson held kept directing us ahead. Our hunch was right…it pointed to the hijacked shipment being somewhere inside their pack territory woods.As we got to the border, their patrol warriors came running out, but I didn't bother to step out…my car was in the middle of the convoy which had like fifteen cars. I sat in the back seat listening to the sounds of fighting and wolf howls outside…Manson sat in the front passenger seat while Cole sat beside me…both of them keeping their ears tuned to their hearing devices."All cleared, Alpha," Kelvin's voice came through the comms from the lead SUV."Good," I replied into my earpiece. "Drive in. Cover the territory with your men. Search every nook and cranny of this pack until you find Elvira! Assign the second group to locate the tracker and get back my shipment. My group will go straight to the pack mansion and confront their Alpha a
~Elvira~ As I stepped out of the bathroom then put on my clothes Gabriel bagged into my room, why was he here now? Had he sensed something? I wondered "What went wrong?" he demanded. "I... I don’t know what you mean," I stammered. I tried to look away, terrified that he would see the silver sw
~Elvira~ I walked toward the enrollment desk, my heart beating rapidly out of anticipation, the building was modern with glass walls and shiny floors, and it was full of recruits. There were tall, muscular men in athletic gear from other territories and Silverblade youths looking like they were s
~Elvira~ The walk to the mansion was silent. I kept my eyes down, but noticed high sensory cameras tucked into the oak branches, their red lights blinking. Silverblade had a massive security network. The pack house was a large mansion of marble and white stone, beautiful but intimidating.
~Elvira~ ~Present~ The cell door hissed shut behind me, the locking mechanism echoing down all the way down, after the chill of the cell, I felt completely weak, my muscles trembling, my legs buckled, so I dropped my hands to my knees to keep from fainting. "What do you think you're doing?" a
