WILLA'S POV

Tight.

My chest just felt so tight with anger.

Yet I could feel my heart roar like a tempest in my ears.

The hunger pang that had troubled me since earlier? It disappeared in a blink of an eye, replaced by an uneasy coiling in my stomach.

Tension pulled every muscle of my body taut, and I could barely find it in me to focus on Gillian when my fury was overwhelming me like an unforgiving tsunami wave splashing down on me.

“Shut it,” I snapped at Gallahan.

Fucking hell.

Even though Gallahan and William were in a horrifyingly concerning state, I still didn’t have a lick of compassion to give them at the moment.

They had brought this to themselves with no care for the child in their midst.

“Leave,” I hissed at them.

“Willa,” William said softly, his voice sounding a little odd, likely because of his broken nose.

“I said leave. Both of you. If you have any shred of decency left in you after traumatizing my daughter, leave. You know the way out. So leave. Now.”

In my arms, Gilli

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   PAIN

    WILLA’S POVPain.Everywhere.My entire body was screaming in pure pain. My every fiber felt like it was being torn to shreds. Every vein seemed like hot lava and not blood that flowed within. And every nerve throbbed as if it had been hammered and ground by a giant iron pestle.My insides were burning, and yet, my skin felt hauntingly cold and clammy.I didn’t think pain to this degree was possible until this very moment.Death would’ve been a mercy compared to this. I would’ve walked willingly towards the end of my life if it meant I wouldn’t have to suffer through this excruciating agony for much longer.But the thoughts of my children…My dearest Calisto and Gillian…I couldn’t bring myself to entertain the idea of death for much longer than a couple of seconds.My children still needed me. They…They…They…Whimpers and moans left my mouth as I curled further into myself.Bloody fucking hell…I could barely string coherent thoughts anymore with how drowned I was with the ache of

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   BLOOD MAGIC

    GALLAHAN’S POVWilliam took the twins, scooping them into his arms with practiced ease and carrying them as if they were still as light as the day they were born.“I’ll come with you,” he said evenly, his face lined with grimness that the situation warranted. “The twins will stay in the Alfiero Manor. They’ll be safe there and-”“No,” Wendell interjected, stepping in closer and putting a firm hand on William’s shoulder.“But Dad-”“I said no. The twins…” The harsh severity in Wendell’s eyes softened with fear for a fleeting moment. Then, with a tone that my own father loved to use whenever I acted particularly stubborn, he said, “You are the twin of their mother. So with Willa’s and Gallahan’s absence, they will find your scent and inner wolf are the most comforting at this time of distress. So stay.”A conflicted look crossed William’s face. “But…”“I will go with Mr. Wick.”“Thank you,” I piped in before the father-and-son pair could descend into an argument. “But I would like to go

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   ALIVE AND WELL

    GALLAHAN’S POV My body seemed to falter, then freeze upon hearing Gillian’s and Calisto’s voices calling me. But my heart stuttered and launched into a wild thundering against my lungs. ‘Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill,’ my inner wolf clamored impatiently in my mind. I pulled my arms free from the weak hold and took another step forward as the urge to spill blood and take lives with my bare hands roared back and flared in my veins. Yes. Of course. Those fucking creature hunters hurt my mate and my little cubs. They had dared to ruin the peace in our lives, ruining the happy memories of our home by sullying it with a traumatic night. They would pay. And I intended to collect the debt they owed me. Yes. A war. I would make sure no other humans could walk free with their heads held high. They deserve nothing and… “Daddy! Daddy! Where are you going? Are you leaving us?” “I need a hug, Daddy.” “Me too. I’m scared.” The voices sounded so small and scared and just

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   SLIPPING TO MADNESS

    GALLAHAN’S POVEverything was all a blur, sans the tightness I felt in my chest as well as the unrelenting roil of nauseating fear that made my mouth taste sour and bitter at the same time.So before I knew it, I was already in Fen Cottage, clutching the enchanted key Willa had given me all those months ago.It was quiet and still, as if nothing was amiss. It looked exactly the same as it was when I left.No fallen knick-knacks. No upturned pieces of furniture. No scratches on anything. No drops of blood.Nothing told of a story that my family was in danger.And yet, the more I lingered in the heart of the living room, the more I could smell the lingering scent of humans. One that told of multiple men.Maliya, who had teleported to Banfey Manor only a minute after she received word from Zuleika, squeezed my arm in obvious hope of being comforting.But there was no comfort until I saw and held my mate and my children. Alive and well.“Search the perimeter for Calisto and Gillian. They

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   HAUNTING NIGHT

    GALLAHAN’S POVMy entire body went cold in a single heartbeat. Fear seized my heart and gripped it in an unforgiving tightness. It almost seemed like all of the air had left my lungs in a swift swoosh, leaving me breathless.Bile rose to my throat as a sense of nauseating dread, reminiscent of a thick black tar, slithered in my veins, making me feel like my limbs were made of steel instead of bones and flesh.I gaped at Zuleika with wide eyes, my lips ajar in surprise.Calisto’s and Gillian’s voices, which quivered beneath the weight of their fright and panic, continued to ring all over the room despite the absence of their sources.“Dad! Da-daddy! Please! W-we left Mommy! It’s just me and Gil.”“Daddy! Help, please. P-please. Where are you… Daddy… Hic… Come and g-get us. Please. Daddy… We’re scared. I’m scared.”Choked sobs and heart-wrenching whimpers broke into their pleas in the same way it broke my soul.“Gallahan, you gave them the bracelet?” Zuleika asked with a sense of urgenc

  • FATED TO A TYRANT   POINT

    GALLAHAN’S POV“You are an idiot,” Zuleika said, sounding utterly tired of my bullshit.I gave her a shrug and a weak chuckle before going even more limp on the high wingback armchair in her bedroom’s lounge area by the tall stained glass window. Then, with very apparent self-flagellation and depreciation, I replied, “That’s me, I guess.”“Look,” she said with a heavy sigh, gently setting down a tray of tea things and a plate of plain heart-shaped butter cookies on the circular coffee table she had magically conjured. “I get it. Seeing a certain pattern in your relationship with Willa is concerning, but don’t you think it’s normal? All couples fight, and then they work it out.”For a moment, I didn’t say anything back, opting to watch her transform a purple cushion pillow into an armchair that was identical to the one I had claimed for myself. Except, the newly transfigured chair was burgundy instead of white. It was only when she had perched herself comfortably that I finally carrie
