Horace’s POV

The dining hall was warm that night, the chandelier shining brightly down on us as we settled around it.

I had asked the staff to keep it simple; it wasn't a formal feast, just a simple…family dinner.

When the door opened, Vivienne stepped in with a subtle smile on her face, taking her seat opposite Elena, her hand resting gently on Ethan’s, which was on the table.

I noticed but decided not to push it.

That night was to bring peace to everyone.

“Welcome, Vivienne. I’m glad you c

    Ethan’s POV“I was never witness to people from the beginning. I don’t even know who they are,” he said softly.All the bravado he had from the beginning had completely washed off, and all I saw was a little boy in distress, trying to protect whatever little peace he had left.This left me and my father more confused about the whole matter.“So how did you end up with them?” I asked gently.He gave a small, sad smile. “It all started one day when we noticed strange men around our pack. My father, being a global heart, decided to welcome them without suspecting anything. However, we never knew this act of kindness would lead to the destruction of our family and pack.”He paused, sobbing lightly.“One day, while we were having a small pack celebration for a milestone, a loud noise came out of nowhere, and before we could understand what was happening, we noticed this strange man attacking us from different angles. At first, even as a young child, I didn’t want to believe what was happen

    Horace’s POV“Your highness, he’s coming towards you. He’s alone,” Dave voiced into the walkie-talkie.I moved forward, Ethan behind me as we prepared to block the boy. “So what are we going to do when we get him, Father?”“Well, for starters, we have to question him. Hopefully, he cracks and tells us what his people are planning. I really don’t want casualties. I want to downplay this war as much as I can.”We heard footsteps and quickly paused, hiding ourselves from view. We didn’t need to wait long because a moment later, a young boy walked past us, not knowing that we were right behind.“Don’t move,” I said, coming out of the shadows. Ethan quickly moved forward, blocking him in case he tried to run.The boy looked between us, shocked and terrified, but I could tell that he was trying to stand his ground.“Who… who are you? What do you want for me?”“I think that question is meant for you.”He squinted his brows. “What do you mean? I don’t want any trouble, okay. Just don’t bother

    Ethan’s POVAs I stood in front of my sister’s room, I contemplated what I was about to do. For a moment, I thought about abandoning it and going back to my room. But at the last minute, I raised my fisted hand, placing three soft knocks on the door.“Ellie, it is I, Ethan. May I come in?”“Come on in,” she replied happily, and I knew she was already preparing to get on my nerves.I smile, turning the locks.“What do we have here? What brings you to my humble abode?”I smiled, but it didn’t quite reach my eyes, and she was quick to notice it. She wiped the smirk off her face, becoming more alert. Then she jumped off her bed, walking towards me.“Brother, are you okay?”I stared at her silently, thinking of how to put my words.“You know you can tell me anything, right?”I nodded. “Yes, I know that.”“So what is it?”Slowly, I took her hand in mine. “I need to ask you for something and although it may sound unusual, I would really like it if you can make it work.”Her face dropped, lo

    Horace’s POV“Your highness, I think we found them,” they barged into my office, the words coming out of him sharply.I jumped to my feet. “Are you serious? You found the intruders?”He nodded. “Yes, your highness. Look at this.”He dropped his iPad on my desk, flicking into a particular page that had a video on it.It was a video of a little boy walking behind an older man. However, the man’s face could not be seen. I could tell that he was hiding it on purpose.“What is this?”“Your highness, I have reasons to believe that this is the man we’ve been looking for. This is the man who plans to go to war with us.”I stared up at him. “ Are you sure about this, Dave?”“Yes, your highness. We decided to go with Luna’s plan about pretending to still have big plans for the princesses' birthday party. This is the location we got, and of course, we were careful not to publicize it and intentionally acted as if we were trying to hide it. They fell for the trick and within two days, they made t

    Elena’s POV“How do you know about me? If you are just a human, how do you know so much about my world but claim that you just found out about Ethan?”She swallowed. “When I said, I just found out about him, I didn’t lie. However, I have also mentioned to him in the past about certain stories.”“Stories like what?”“Stories of the supernatural,” she paused, staring into my eyes. “Stories about people from your world. Of course, I didn’t believe anything, but after I found out about Ethan, I began to look into it with a fresh eye, and it all started to make sense.”“Really? So now you believe there are supernatural people out there?”“Of course. I have one standing right in front of me. In fact, I have one of the strongest standing right in front of me l now.”I sighed. “And how does this make you feel? Are you not scared or threatened to have people like this around you?”She smiled again. At this point, I thought it had to be her superpower because every time she did it, I caught mys
