Brenda arrived at the luxurious and fortified estate of Larsen, a lavish estate blending Gothic and modern architecture. The black gate was guided by giant wolves who approached her vehicle the moment she arrived.With the advantage of her status in the pack of Obsidian Wraith, she was granted access to enter the estate. This wasn't the first time she had been here, and each time she came here, she let herself swim in the aura of power and mystery and the beauty it yet wields.But this time, her heart wasn't filled with admiration and love but heavy with pain and anger brewing through her veins as she drove in and parked her car. She could see guards mounting their positions in a distancing yet organized way. There ain't always many guards. She took in a deep breath as she gazed at the towering black walls before her, the sophisticated angular glass accents. She looked at the modern castle she'd call a mansion, exuding the symbol of untouchable authority, with beautiful vehicles park
Moraine chuckled as she smoothened Ava's black hair. The casually dressed Moraine was making sure her best friend, Ava, was good to go while she admired her beauty at the same time.Ava checked out her black gown once again, " you sure he'll like this?"," Fret not, he's my brother, and I know what he likes," she said, smiling at her.Ava smiled feeling reassured, " I thought I lost him, I'm so happy "," And you didn't, you don't think I'm going to let some loser be with my brother? You are the perfect match for him"," I know right ", Ava grinned ear to ear, " I think I'm good to go"," I think so too; now let's go get what belongs to you, "Moraine winked at her smiling and causing Ava to blush.She quickly sprayed a rose perfume on her, and they both chuckled before exiting the room and heading towards the study room where Damien was.Ava could feel her heart pounding so hard in her chest; she had anticipated and imagined this day so much that it had worn off. She had always had ey
The werewolf guarding Elora's cell bowed before Damien who permitted him to rise. He looked towards Elora's cell and saw nothing but darkness." Why is her room so dark?", he asked while he stood under the dimlit bulb." That's the rule here, that every murderer must be kept in darkness till judgment day."Damien sighed feeling so uncomfortable about it, " I'd like to see her"," Are you sure? My lord?"," Why?"," I don't think she's in her right mind; she has gone crazy."Damien furrowed his brow, looking confused; he looked at Luke and turned back to the guard. " Well, a lady who went on a killing spree on her wedding day is definitely a crazy one", Luke said with a shrug.Damien eyed him, not liking the way he said that, but it was true, so he said nothing." That's not what I mean", the guard said," What are you saying then?", Damien asked," She has been talking to herself since, yelling and screaming and talking to no one but herself; it's like she's communicating with someon
" Your friend, "Naya said, " your best friend, Scarlett, is her?"." Who?".Elora asked but felt Naya grow quiet, and Elora could feel that she had something she wasn't saying." Do you remember her now? The lady you forsake?"," I did not forsake her"," Oh really?".Naya's face that dropped could not be seen cause she was now in someone else's body, but her feelings were still alive; she felt guilty. Unable to look up, her low voice said," I remembered the gods telling me she died, I checked the scroll and saw her, and the mistake I made"," What mistake?".She does not know how to break the statement to Elora, but her divinity and purity do not permit her to lie. Elora stood patiently, waiting for her to say whatever nonsense she wanted to say, but it wouldn't change her feeling of hatred for her." That Alpha..is not Scarlett's mate".The folded arms beneath Elora's breasts dropped weakly. Her arms dropped to her side and her eyes held real shock. Her heart started pounding so ha
It was finally the day. Elora stood behind the cold cell, watching the beard guard unlock the cell's gate. This was when she realized what day it was. She had been unable to view the sun, the moon, nor the sky for who knows how long, but she knew immediately the cell's door was opened, that it was her judgment day.Her chest heaved heavily as the guard cuffed her wrist with heavy chuffs and dragged her out of the cell with the chain. A minute, her heart would feel hot and the next minute, it would feel so blank. She kept feeling this way all through the way, while she also ignored Rionaya's discomfort with being handcuffed.Elora thought she could maintain this blankness on her face and heart, but the moment she stepped into the chamber, her heart skipped so hard that she thought it would stop her breathing. But still, she tried to maintain the blankness on her face.She bowed her head as she was dragged into the courtroom, the perfectly circular chamber. Her ears could hear the murmu
" This is not true! My daughter is not ill; she's purely evil", Docherty flared up desperately, " and I'm sure this is also part of her scheme."Damien turned sharply at Docherty in disbelief. He had thought he'd have support from her father, but he wasn't expecting such a remark." Her father is denying this report", the hair councilor said and turned to Docherty, " why do you believe your daughter is not ill?"," Because I know it when she's ill"," Was your daughter not involved in some recent accident whereby the doctor said she hit her head and couldn't remember what happened before the accident", Damien stated,Docherty stammered, " y.yeah but the doctor also said she's okay, she never revealed that she's battling with some other personality"," Or is it that you weren't observant or care enough about her?"," Of course I do; I've loved her since her birth."" And yet, you don't know when she's ill"." I am not ill", Elora fired, her cold statement cutting the words between the
The hostility in every fiber of her words was strong with heavy craziness for vengeance, but he smirked and said, "Sorry, but you won't be able to do that. Cause you won't be dying ".Every head turned towards him immediately including the surprised Elora." I told you that you don't even deserve death. Here's my judgment ".If a pin fell in the room, everyone would hear it through the immense silence as every eye was focused on Larsen. Hearts were pounding fast, fear was gripping the bodies of some, some were desperately hoping for something brutal, and the silence of Larsen was breaking through barriers and cutting through chests." You shall be enslaved", his words cut through the silence, " you shall become the pack's slave, wash the feet of a vagrant, serve the packs during ceremonials, you shall do the beddings of slaves. You shall become the rag every werewolf trampled upon."And then he stamped the ruling." Ehh? No, no, no, that can't be happening", Naya yelled in her head.
Jordan and his friends watched her being stoned till she was thrown into the van before walking to where they parked their cars." Do you guys think this is safe?", Matthew asked rubbing his face with his palm worriedly," What?", Jordan asked," This judgment, do you guys think it's going to stop her? You heard all she said inside", " You need to stop getting worked up over nothing, what can she do while being a slave, not just any slave, the Obsidian Wraith slaves, it's like a death sentence ", Hort said," But it's not a death sentence, she could still do something "," Can you stop worrying yourself over nothing, Matthew, she's chained down, what more could she do?", Tom attacked feeling angered by his cowardly remarks," Are you kidding me? Don't underestimate that bitch. Do you hear her voice inside when she speaks? There was venom in her voice, in her tone, and I can't seems to shake it out of my core"." That's because you're a coward "," How dare you call me a coward? Was H
After the perilous yell, the kicks and punches stop. " Alpha," Amie called; her heart skipped as she hadn't planned for Larsen to catch her in the act, but her anger and hatred for Elora wouldn't make her stop." Are you out of your goddamn mind?!" he thundered and pushed her roughly away from Elora, surprising everyone present.If not for the assistance of the attendants who quickly caught her, she would've fallen hard on her butt.Larsen's wolf growled in rage as it looked at Amie, feeling so much anger that it wanted to tear her apart and everyone who had laid hands on her." Hey! Hey," Elora heard his baritone voice call as his hand pulled her up gently from the floor.Larsen's blood boils looking at her body full of bruises; her hair was so messy and covering her face. He worriedly brushed the hair off her face with his fingers, and his heart sank, looking at her face full of cuts and bruises.He gritted his teeth and glared at Amie." What the fuck do you think you were doing?"
Austin watched her stride towards him in the sitting room, dressed in a blue short and black singlet with her hair packed in a ponytail shape, looking all normal with no hint of madness, which amazed Austin even more.' damn, clothes indeed hide lots of things, my moony,' he exclaimed in his mind.Elora nodded slightly as she stood in front of him not knowing what to say or do." Do you need anything?" he asked," No, no," she waved quickly.~ what do you mean by no? We're starving ~ Naya shouted in her head." A moon goddess like you sure knows how to yell and shout and scream," she whispered to herself knowing Naya would hear her." What do you say?" Austin asked not hearing a thing except 'moon goddess '" No, nothing,"" Would you like anything? To eat?"" No, I'm fine currently,"~ are you kidding me? We're not in a fasting period ~" You sure?" " Okay," Elora gave in, seems like both Naya and Austin were determined to frustrate her soul till she took in something, " please some
No matter which side she turns to, the sun that scorches through the room seems determined to heat her awake. Elora groaned as she grabbed the duvet and dragged it above her head but she wasn't feeling comfortable enough to sleep back that way." fine..you succeed," she groaned against the pillow and pushed the duvet down." Ahh! Holy moon shit!" she yelled as she jumped up in fright when she opened her eyes to see ..Austin?" What are you doing here?" she yelled at him as she quickly wrapped herself up with the duvet, eyeing him from head to toe with her face contoured with deep frown.Her startled chest was pounding so hard against her ear." Good morning Miss Elora, pardon my manners, I didn't mean to startle you,"" May I know your reason for being here?"" My lord, the Alpha, instructed me to watch over you,"" Watch over me or spy on me?" her frown deepened.' did he think I was going to try to escape after what he did last night? He shouldn't worry, I've already made up my mind
" I'm not going to scream, but what the heck!" she said, almost whispering, some of the words nearly inaudible.Magnus heaved a sigh of relief still laying on her. He has never been this relief in his entire life." What are you doing? I know you want me to accept you but do you think following me around and trying to do what? Will make me accept you?."Magnus furrowed his brow in confusion, wondering why she was so scared and nervous. Vicky's heart was pounding so hard against her chest and with her mate laying on top of her, she could feel heat building from her fluttering stomach.His masculine scent was too close this time, driving her head in an unknown direction; her palm got sweaty, and the temptation to touch his muscles feeling against her shoulder.She swallowed hard while she tried to avoid gazing into his eyes so as not to lose her resolve. Her craving for that one person to love and care for her, her desire for a companion and a partner, gradually getting rekindled.No Vi
This is very strange, where are all the guards? She looked around and sniffed the air, but there was indeed no scent of a guard hiding anywhere close.Something is definitely wrong.She quickly went after the one she was trailing, she jumped back when her quick steps nearly bumped into his presence. She hid behind a pillar, waiting for a second to take a peep.|Magnus|Magnus couldn't close his parted lips when he saw the hidden ground behind a door. He thought he was just going into a room that only Elia had access to, but after waiting for some seconds, he held and twisted the knob to see it wasn't locked.He slowly opened the door hoping the door doesn't make any creaking sound as he stepped inside. His jaw dropped at the sight before his eyes, behind the door is a stairs leading downward to an underground.A secret underground? For what?He slowly walked down the stairs, clinging to the wall so he wouldn't be easily sighted and unaware of the figure hiding behind him as well.Fin
" what do you mean?"" I don't trust you,"" But you trust him?"" No, but at least he has a motive; he is ready to make amendments for his mistakes and wouldn't hurt me."Hurt me. The word slaps him hard across the face." You don't need him,"" He's going to get justice for Scarlett, everyone is going to know the truth,"" It isn't justice you want, it's revenge,"" That'll only put me in more trouble and danger, I might get killed if I get caught killing anyone again."" Do whatever you want; kill whoever you want; I'll be your alibi."The rigidness and unwavering tone and stare, the look in his eyes when he said that wrapped her soul in the feeling of protection and her heart melt, but with that, her head felt the battle of confusion within her mind.He got up from the bed when she said no more and covered her legs with the duvet." Get some sleep, it's late," he said and made to leave," Stop confusing me?," she said running her fingers through her blonde hair and her face covere
" my beautiful pup, hmm muah! You're so adorable," her giggling voice said as she rubbed her face against his chubby, cute face.Larsen chuckled, his face full of smiles, " I miss you so much mum," his excited voice telling her exactly how much he had missed her. He hugged her, wrapping his little arms around her.Larsen clenched his fist hard as the next memory he had of her was her hand dripping with blood, and the look on her face. The memories he couldn't shove away, the memories that couldn't be buried but just live with it. The feelings he felt that day were still raw and fresh; the anger, the disappointment, the fear, they flashed across his eyes, brewing another wave of anger in him as he angrily gulped down the seventh bottle of alcohol and yet didn't feel any ounce of tipsiness.His heart feels so heavy that anger radiates through his veins as he keeps remembering his mother's bloody hands and Damien's hand holding Elora's. If he sees Damien right this moment, he wouldn't he
Without giving room for a response, he turned around and grabbed Elora's wrist before dragging her along with him back to their suite while Damien stood still, with his blood boiling and he gave out a loud growl and grunt of anger and frustration. His breath rose and fell erratically.Amie watched from the corner, smirking in satisfaction, knowing she'd gotten into trouble; her wince confirmed it as Larsen dragged her with him. The fear on Elora's face gave Amie so much joy that her eyes flickered with so much relief and lifted her mood that made her want to hum a song.Elora winced in pain from Larsen's tight grip, but he was so furious that it sent shivers down her spine; his fury terrified her that she couldn't tell him that his grip hurt. How dare her! How dare her!!His mind was in an unrelenting turmoil. It was so unbelievable when Amie showed him the picture she took, but when she took him to the spot and had to see for himself, a fire was ignited in him.He clenched his fist
Elora was surprised as her eyes fell on him." Alpha Damien?" the call was almost a whisper," Elora," he called with a smile nudging in. He was pissed about how today went; the smiley look on Elora's face after the meeting ended taunted him that he made plans to have dinner with the Alpha, hoping to see her, but his anger even surged higher when his request was turned down.He was standing by the glassy wall, gazing out of the window and sipping his red wine after giving feedback on their plan to Elia when he saw her taking a walk.This is heaven presenting to him a chance and he wouldn't for anything let it pass." Taking a walk?" he asked, looking as she folded her arms beneath her breast.Without responding, she turned to walk away but he immediately blocked the way with his body." Are you avoiding me?"" Isn't that obvious?."His heart skipped and ached at the same time. She glared up at him.When would she ever look at him the same way he looks at her." For how long would you
