Chapter 35"No! This can't be! Me? In love with alpha Damien? Oh! I'm losing my mind," Cassie whines frustratingly, running her fingers through her hair. It was almost evening, and she came to the garden with Milo to get fresh air. Zoey's words have been replaying in her head, and she has been trying to wrap her head around everything, but it's driving her crazy. As much as she wants to convince herself that she's not in love with him, seeing the truth staring back at her, she can't deny it. His image flashes through her mind, and she finds her heart beating rapidly, causing her to clutch it tightly as if preventing it from popping out of her chest. "Oh no! This is not happening," She shrieks for the umpteenth time, hitting her chest slightly. "Milo, what's happening?" She looks to her side and asks the little cat that is busy drinking from the drops of water that fills a large portion of a leaf. "Meow... Meow..." Milo cries out again, and she sighs deeply realizing that the innoc
Chapter 36"Cassie!" Alpha Damien's thunderous voice echoes in the garden, getting Kai and Cassie's attention. The two snaps their head in the direction to see him standing just at the entrance of the garden. "My...my lord..." She stutters nervously, as she turns her face away. "What are you doing here?" He finally walks over to them, his gaze not leaving her body. He has an angry look on his face. "I...I... I was taking a rest here," Her heart thumps heavily against her ribcage as she stares everywhere else except his face. Damien bites the bottom of his lips, glaring hard at her. His heart keeps beating rapidly as he clenches his fists beside him, his blood boiling in pure rage for no reason. Taking a deep breath, he raises his gaze to his annoying friend, as he glares at him. "Why? Are you angry?" Kai's voice suddenly echoes in his head, and he scoffs loudly. "Why should I be?" He replies in telepathy. "Sorry, but you're not good at hiding your feelings, it's written all ove
Chapter 37At the priest's chamber..."To what do I owe this sudden visit, my lord?" The priest asks as he stares at Damien sitting across from him. "I'm running out of patience, Raul. Why is this taking so long? Are you doing anything about it at all?" Alpha Damien asks with anger resounding in his voice. His head is already getting messed at the thought of her, his heart is getting hurt realizing that he's having this feeling toward her, and he's mad at himself that he can't even control himself. Yes, he's seeing the red flags, he knows what this feeling is, but maybe he's trying to pretend that it's not what it really is. He thought that he would be able to get rid of it if he tries to change his thinking, but it seems like with every second that ticks, the feeling has become stronger. He can't let this continue, letting himself fall in love with the daughter of a traitor has never been what he dreamt of, this only happens in movies and book series, and to think that it's happenin
Chapter 38"How much do you love him?" Kai asks her, and she sighs deeply. She has stopped crying already, and they're now sitting together in the garden while staring at the river. "I...I don't know," She whispers and bites the bottom of her lip. "Damien... You should give him some time. Maybe he's going through something sad now and needs some time to heal, OK? I'm sure he will come around," Kai assures her, and she nods her head. Seeing someone who loves his dear friend so much makes him happy, and he can't help wishing that he realizes how much this girl loves him, and maybe make her his forever. "He hates me. I am the seed of a traitor, he won't ever look at me the way I see him," A drop of tears slid down her cheeks, and she smiles painfully. "You'll be fine, OK? Come here," he pulls her into his arms and hugs her warmly. "Cassie..." Zoey's voice suddenly distracts them, and she quickly pulls away from Kai. "Zoey..." She calls as she stands up to her feet and turns to see
Chapter 39"What are you doing here?" Hearing that familiar icy voice, she stops abruptly on her track and takes a deep breath, trying not to appear nervous. Turning around, she almost jumps out of her skin at the sight that welcomes her. There is Astrid, glaring hard at her. "I asked a question, what are you doing here? Are you here to steal something?" Astrid questions her again, and she scoffs unbelievably as she tilts her head around as if she's searching for something. "I asked a question, what are you searching for?" Astrid sounds pissed. "I'm looking around to be sure that there's someone else you're talking to, and not me. Steal something? That's ridiculous. I don't look like a thief, do I?" She scoffs as she crosses her arms on her chest. How come she's suddenly bold and talks back at her in that manner, is what even she has no idea of. "Your father didn't look like a traitor and he still killed the late alpha," Astrid smirks at her, and she gasps as she slowly clenches h
Chapter 40Having her chin resting on her palms while sitting on the chair beside the bed, Cassie stares at Damien with a smile dancing on her lips. She was able to get him to the bed and called the physician to come to attend to him. The physician left just a few minutes ago, and she's going to be looking after him all night. Staring at his handsome sleeping face, her cheeks heat up as she feels her smile widens. He looks extremely handsome even in his sleep. "What's wrong with him? Why was he like that?" That is the question she has been asking herself all night but can't come up with a possible answer to it. A few hours later... Alpha Damien finally forces his eyes open as the blurry ceiling welcomes him. He tries to get used to the environment, and he quickly recognizes the ceiling to be his room's ceiling. Trying to recall what happened the previous night, everything starts playing in his head and he groans tiredly. He remembered going inside the bathroom the previous night t
Chapter 41For some seconds, she freezes on the spot with her eyes widen. She blinks her eyes twice to be sure that she's not dreaming, and hell yeah, it's not a dream. Slowly, her eyes close and she starts reciprocating the kiss. If this is a dream, then it better last forever. Her heart pumps violently against her chest as his soft lips send a spark through her body. Her breath hitches, but she tries to keep it in check and balance it. Meanwhile, Damien has his right hand at the back of her neck, and the other one on her waist, as he deepens the kiss. He so much wants to control himself and stop this, knowing he would regret it later, but the more he tries to resist her, the more he finds himself getting charmed by her lips and everything about her. Her head spins crazily when his tongue delves into her mouth and explores every corner of it. This feeling is out of the world, and she doesn't want it to stop. Slowly, he pulls away from her and turns his back at her, running his fi
"What!" His mouth drops open in shock upon hearing her confession. Lydia is the illegitimate daughter of Alpha Kayden of the blood moon pack, whom nobody ever knows of. She's like a shadow before the eyes of her other siblings. Yes, she was birthed the same way others were birthed, but she was unlucky to have been birthed by his mistress whom he never cared about. After the death of her mother some years ago, she has been subjected to pains in the hands of the man that calls himself her father, and his wife wasn't an exemption. She has tried to endure the pain and keep up with them, however, her life became a misery, after her only brother was captured by their father, and he threatened to kill him if she doesn't bring Dean down. As much as she wanted to ask him why he was after Dean's life, knowing that it was going to endanger the life of her brother, she didn't dare to ask him anything, as she could only obey. Tears trickle down her cheeks as she stares into space. While growing
