LOGINI'm sorry, guys. I've been sick since yesterday and wasn't able to upload an update. In return, I'll post 2 more chapters in the following hours. Happy reading!
Lillian’s POVThe air is filled with anticipation as we all anxiously wait for Richard’s reply.Richard looks at each of them and continues, “The ship one has come to an end after her heart stops earlier. Technically, she did die for a moment. Still, it’s a temporary fix. Like a bandage on it. Unless she learns to properly control it, she can handle the burn until it fully subsides and unite with her own strength.”So, basically, I need more training.That… I can deal with it.Suddenly, confidence radiated off of me.I try to sit up, but a groan immediately escapes my lips as every muscle in my body refuses to cooperate, leaving me to slump back against the pillows. With the slight change in my position, I finally notice Maddox is at the far end of the room with her back pressed against the wall while rocking the whimpering Hansel back and forth in her arms.Remembering how it’s said that we are tied together, and now that I’m alive, worry fills me with the possibility that he is harm
Lillian’s POV“I’m not letting you go.”That familiar voice echoes from everywhere, repeatedly just when I feel like I am at the edge of the cliff with darkness all around me and heat hotter than flames surrounding me.The voice sounds so familiar that it touches my heart while the words echo with raw desperation. So much so that I can feel it vibrate through my bones deeper and deeper until it reaches deepest inside me, anchoring me right at the edge just before I completely fall and be dragged away.I can hear it again, but this time, it registers in my mind.Keegan! That’s Keegan’s voice!How can I forget?It’s been hours since I lost consciousness and sucked myself into darkness. Every second that passes by feels like hell, and slowly, my mind goes silent to the extent that my memories fade away together with my will and everything that makes me… me.“You can’t leave me! You can’t die! I order you!”If it isn’t to the pain I am feeling right now, I will be laughing. Even at this t
Keegan’s POVThe trip out to the Oasis isn’t as easy as usual. With the recent bad weather and the storm worsening, the road is becoming increasingly dangerous.The pavements are wet, and every car is at its bright headlights as fog starts to form right ahead.I tap my fingers on the side of the door, anxiousness kicking in within me as the intensity to be back at Lillian’s side and be at her disposal, especially at this moment, rises within me.“Can’t you go any faster?” I shout, unable to help it anymore.He looks back at time through the rear-view mirror. “We’re almost there, Alpha. I’m already at the highest speed limit. Any more and we’ll be a hazard to the others.”I sneer but don’t say anything, knowing what he is saying is correct, especially in this weather.True to these words, after a few minutes, I heard the screeching of the tyres as it halted inside the Oasis pack.“Alpha, we’re here–”I don’t bother waiting for him to finish his words. The engine is still running, but I
Keegan’s POVThe silence that follows my outburst is deafening. The air in the small meeting room becomes so thick with my presence, especially with my wolf’s presence, that it changes the colour of my eyes. Dominance and power fill the air, so much so that Elder Rowan actually loosens his tie, gasping for a breath that doesn’t taste like my rage.My hand is still planted on the table, vibrating with the force of the growl that just ripped through my chest. For a moment, no one moves. Even Elder Mira, who usually has a retort for everything, looks pale, her lips pressed into a thin white line. For a long while, it seemed as if they got too used to seeing the incompetent version of me. The one who had tried to remain a diplomat to make up for all the mistakes that I have made. The version of me who is still broken and regretful of things that ruin my image as a husband.But they have forgotten that before all this, before being the man who starts chasing a ghost, I am the Alpha who ha
Keegan’s POVI stare at Richard when he comes into the room, looking better informed today than he was a few days back.Later, we learned that he went far beyond, even leaving his seclusion to gather more information by contacting other healers. There, he learns that there are the First Blood werewolves who are known to be blessed directly by the moon goddess.Technically, they have the blood of the ancient. The only remaining family from the first werewolves created by the moon goddess is known to be more powerful than the rest.They’re strength, instincts, and everything goes far more advanced than the rest, which explains how Lillian, who has a sleeping wolf, can still fight alongside the rest of the werewolves without shifting.Now, one can only imagine how powerful she will be once she gets her werewolf back and shifts.Hell, she’ll probably suppress me and Craig in the snap of a finger, even when we are Alphas.“This time, I’ll make sure the promise I make happens,” I whisper to
Lillian’s POVThe sunlight filtering through the curtains felt too bright for my weary eyes. It’s been like that for the past couple of days since I first had my fever, to which I’ll be honest, has been dragging me into hell.At first, my body continued to tremble with weakness. And I detest that feeling. But lately, the fever has started to subside a little. I’m not sure if it’s me getting better for real or if it’s my body getting accustomed to handling the heat.Nonetheless, I am thankful that I can finally stand.So, without further ado, I jump out of my bed and go straight to the shower like I have been reborn, and I celebrate it with a freshly changed, comfortable pair of clothes.“You know, you are the most stubborn person I have ever known!” She comments, leaning on the doorframe of my room, her arm crossed and disapproving eyes on me, as she watches me tie my hair in front of the mirror.She’s the first one to have seen me get up and leave my bed early this morning. She tried
