"Yeah, and he was a werewolf or a vampire. Something I am not sure what." Then suddenly recalling something she said, "Serena, I was supposed to meet Serena."
"She is here, at the compound. She is safe." He assured her and narrated everything which had happened so far. By the time he had finished her head hurt and her stomach growled.
"My head is pounding. How long was I knocked out? " Lisa, whimpered while rubbing her head.
"The doctor said a week but you woke up in just two days, which is a good thing I suppose. Wait, I will get some food for you."
He directed the two betas near the door to continue guarding and left for the kitchen.
Keith had been taking care of the pack business that had stacked up since Ruben had been pre-occupied, he was dragged away to the mess hall for breakfast by his mate Amber. The mess hall was full of people eating and laughing. The noi
Ruben was lovingly staring at his mate. He had tried to be gentle but their lovemaking had exhausted her. She smiled sleepily. However, sleep was the last on her mind. He kissed her nose and said seriously, "we need to talk....."A knock at the door interrupted him mid-sentence. Keith walked in and bowed to the alpha couple in the bed. The air was filled with the unmistakable aroma of arousal and sex. He hid a smile for his alpha. Lisa felt her cheeks turn a bright crimson and drowned herself under the sheets a little more."What is it?" asked Ruben impatiently. He had hoped to get a full conversation with Lisa, without being interrupted."Councilman Raphael and Sebastian are here, as you requested," reported his Beta."Serve them refreshments; I will be there shortly," he replied waving a hand.Lisa looked between the two men in confusion. Keith left with a short bow and left the room. Ruben watched his lover carefully, trying to guess the thoughts
“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude. It sounded like you were talking to someone.” Ruben walked into the bathroom. It was large, but it wasn't large enough for Leonard or his hallucination to hide. “Just myself,” she said. She moved the bubbles over her body, making sure nothing was visible. Which was stupid? There was nothing he had never seen before. “Alright, I will wait for you outside.” He started walking towards the door. But she didn't what him to leave, she had an ominous feeling if she was left alone her hallucination of Leonard would return. “Wait, why did you return? You had a meeting?” “Ah! I was going to talk to Serena to hear her side of the story and thought you might be interested.” “I am done, guess I can join you.” She said quickly. She wanted to avoid staying alone. She tried to push herself up, then looked at him. “A little help, please,” she said. He sm
The year 1820 -In her sleep, she felt warm and safe. She heard unspoken words and occasionally caught glimpses of her name and a woman. Occasionally, she'd catch glimpses of red, and then it would hide away from her.'Come back to me,' she'd say into the nothingness that was her mind. Most of the time, she was met with silence. Today, she was met by a howl.She heard someone opening a door and screamed once more, hoping that someone would hear her. “Please, can somebody help me? Does anybody hear me? Please help!”The burning pain in her body made it difficult to speak. 'Where am I?' She started to feel panicky. The last thing she remembered before she had passed out was the black wolf. What had happened since then? Slowly, she pulled the top sheet off the bed and covered herself as good as she could, wondering where her clothes were. Where was William? And her baby, Sarah?She decided to calm herself by taking in her surro
Shifting the heavy burden of dirty linens, Victoria wished that she wasn't an omega, but she knew if she wanted that to change, that complaining wouldn't get her there. Victoria passed the large mahogany doors of the Alpha's room, wishing she had been born with enough rank for the Alpha to notice her. Heaving a sigh, she went to the laundry room on the alpha's floor.She rushed out of the room and hurried down the hall, only to come to a halt when she heard screams coming from the Alpha's room. Dropping the clothing, Victoria ran towards beta Peter's room and burst through the door panting.“Sir…you have to come…quickly…there's screaming coming from Alpha's room. I think there's something wrong with the human.”“Screaming? Go get Alpha, quickly! Tell him I need him in his room immediately.”Peter ran down the hallway, still throwing orders over his shoulder. “Go now. Hurry!”“Ye
An hour later Serena was licking the leftover bones of a deer they had hunted together. She had never felt so alive, so free and strong in her 20 years. But the little corner in her mind was disgusted and horrified by what she had become, what she had done. How was she supposed to return and be with her baby?"How do you feel, little one?" The black wolf asked."I am not hungry anymore, sir. Thank you for your help.""Please call me Dorcas, now I will teach you how to turn back. Then you can wash up in the water."She watched in fascination as the black wolf transformed into a man. A very naked, very gorgeous looking man. Dorcas was handsome but she has no idea he was so magnificent. Not that she has much of a reference, the only naked man she had ever seen was William. The red wolf blushed and looked away.Dorcas walked up to the red wolf and gently patted her soft fur. "Now focus on your human self and coax her to take over."&nb
"It's not easy for me to just forget everything and become your wife...mate...whatever you call it. I miss my daughter. Is there a way I can get her to stay with us? Or at least I can be in her life in some way?" She pleaded. She saw a flash of anger in his eyes, but then he composed himself. "You still don't realise what you have become Serena, how you have changed or how powerful you are. You will be shunned for being a monster. Humans are frail, and a human baby...," he chuckled." You would break her like a twig." "Are you implying that I will harm my baby?" She said hotly. "Not intentionally. You are a young wolf, you can barely control your power. Even the slightest trigger would push your wolf into shifting. Tell me, if your daughter is harmed by your wolf. Will you
The night was chilly, by human standards. However, Serena didnt feel it anymore. Her werewolf skin could withstand low temperatures easily. The music from the grand hall wafted around Serena as she stood near the railing looking down into the forest. The ground was several feet below but she could land safely if she was careful. She had been practising running and jumping as a wolf. She was fast, very fast. Much faster than the pack's strongest beta. Speed was something God-given. Even as a human she was quick, although not quick enough to run from the rogue who attacked her.That brought her to her current turmoil. Why was it that the rogue chose her, the supposed fiery one and Dorcas saved her and also turned out to be her mate. Right before the rare blood moon when the prophecy would be fulfilled. Why was the series of coincidences so perfectly aligned? It seemed almost staged.She closed her eyes and tried to recall the evening she was attacked. Her brain dre
Serena had just slipped into her room when the knock came at her door and one of the senior female betas June entered followed by two omegas. June held a small golden chalice in her hand.“What is that?” Serena asked.“The Alpha has sent some sedatives to calm your nerves during the ceremony. It would only last for thirty minutes. You can drink it right before the walk to the Ceremonial Circle.” June replied.“Thank you, you can keep it on the table.”Serena was undressed and led to the bathroom, where she was submerged in a hot bath that smelled of vanilla and spice. Her body was scrubbed clean. After the bath, she was rubbed dry with fluffy towels and led back to the room. While the women prepared her for the ceremony, Serena prepared her escape plan.Dressed in a red silk gown, Serena stared at herself in the mirror. The two golden ribbons kept the flimsy material closed, and were there for the
