Bellatrix Sinclair

I glared at her, if I had the strength – the hatred would be written all over my face. The excruciating pain that shot through my leg had my vision blurring, sweat beaded down my forehead as I fought consciousness.

Cassandra seized my jaw, bitterness emitting from her pores as her eyes darkened. “You forget your fucking place and now you will face the consequences.”

Catching a glimpse of her perfect manicure morphing into weaponized claws that she raised into the air, preparing to strike. I thought the humiliation of being utterly useless against those wolves and leaving Lila to suffer like a coward was my rock bottom.

But the bar was in hell if I die at this bitch’s hand. Someone who doesn’t know the misery caused by war and oppression and segregation.

Swirling the mixture of blood and saliva, I spit in her face. “Fuck….you….selfish bitch.”

She let out a banshee scream, “I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!”

I blinked, a gush of wind striking my face as a blurry figure whizzes p

    Bellatrix SinclairEmmett’s touch lingers far longer than I expected before slipping away. He rises from the chair and turns around to face Lazarus with a curt bow. “No, My King. Bellatrix has just awoken, and I was informing her about Lila’s health to ease her mind.”The atmosphere strained amid the silence warping around us, Lazarus’s gaze bouncing between us as he approached. Darkness blanketed his features in a way that was difficult to decipher, a permanent scowl etched on his face. “I think Bellatrix should be more concerned of her own health before worrying about others.” He contested in a smooth voice.A stark contrast to the initial hostility he emitted seconds ago. “Of course.” Emmett responded, “I’ll take my leave.”He spun to face me with a comforting smile that eased my tension in my body. “I’ll inform your doctor of your condition; he will come in to check your vitals in a few minutes.”“Thank you for saving me, Emmett.” I smiled, expressing my gratitude.Emmett has been

    Bellatrix SinclairI thought the silence would help me decipher Lazarus actions and words but to no avail. He was the one person I couldn’t read, a permanent wall that keeps me from getting too close unless he allows it.Lazarus gives you glimpses into his mind, purely calculating and specific. You only see what he let’s you see, you only take his words at face value because you cannot dig deeper into the real meaning behind it.His kindness wasn’t surprising, although it was unnerving because I didn’t know which side was the real him.A knock resounded from the door, pulling my attention away from my thoughts. “Lila.” I beamed, studying her appearance for any sort of injury.She ran towards me with open arms, embracing me in a tight hug. “I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault; I should have protected you.” She bawled incoherently. “I’m so sorry.”“You have nothing to be sorry for. You protected me.” I stated definitively. Patting her back reassuringly. “If it wasn’t for you, I would have b

    Bellatrix SinclairMy eyes widened in disbelief, each feature contouring to reflect my utter astonishment at his confession. “What did you say?”Colton regards me with a dry look. “You heard me.”I stare at him, flabbergasted. “B-but, you said you would never join.”“I changed my mind, if I don’t belong to either side then I will pick the one with the cause I believe in most.” He proclaimed with an aura of confidence that wasn’t there before.Colton was content on simply existing and following the rules, not choosing to involve himself in a battle that he couldn’t be categorized in. He experienced the cruelty of werewolves first hand and it must have fuelled his determination to enact a change in this world.“How did you find them?” The question flying out my mouth in rapid speed, “I’ve been trying to find them for years, everyone thought they were a myth but I knew they existed.”Excitement crackled like electricity in my veins, a buzzing under my skin that made me giddy.

Colton joining the resistance has shifted the axis of her world in ways she hasn’t realized, the cracks were beginning to form and the secrets I’ve kept to protect her are slowly rising to the surface.He was one of her close friends and the leader chose him specifically for that connection. Her father intends to capitalize on that bond, creating an opening to bring her to his side. I couldn’t blame Bellatrix for taking the opportunity, her life’s purpose was dedicated to finding The Rebel’s Creed, it’s one the reasons she pushed herself to excel in weaponry and craft her skills so that they would find her as a value asset.She endured the cruelty of bullying all for them and yet she didn’t know how her life had already been of purpose to them in a different way, her father was the leader and there is no telling how she might react to that news.We were all digging our own graves with these secrets and I held

    Bellatrix SinclairOne Month LaterMy leg was fully healed, only scars remained. I’ve never been more grateful for my ability to walk than I do now. The next competition would take place in two days and while I would have loved to take Lazarus offer and only return the day of the contest – it was too risky.Hence why we returned to the palace for the participants, albeit not a friendly welcome which wasn’t a surprise since Cassandra and the others left me to die. No one was more disappointed by my survival than her.Lila took the seat next to me at the dinner table, sipping on her lavender tea while I opted for a strong expresso. Sun beamed from the window, bathing us in it’s warmth. She marvelled the empty chairs, “They are quite brazen in showing their dislike towards us.”I shrugged. “Towards me, not you.”She hums, adding another teaspoon of sugar into her tea. “It’s both.” She corrected. “I don’t like them either especially after what she did to you.”I chuckle at the way her lip

    Bellatrix SinclairThe competition was tomorrow and the atmosphere in the palace was tense. After dinner, Lila wanted to have a semblance of peace after such an encounter, choosing to go to the secret dungeon for wine and entertainment.“Are you sure you don’t want to come? It can help you distress.” She insisted with a playful wiggle of her brows.I laugh at her antics, “As tempting as the offer is, I’m going to have to pass.”She pouts before waving, “Your loss, I’ll see you tomorrow.”The hallway is empty, a thickness in the air that was initiated by the rivalry that finally emerged. Taking slow strides to my room at the far end, my thoughts drawing back to Emmett revealing that there was a traitor in our midst. In my one month of recovery, he hasn’t provided any further information on whether the traitor was caught.My suspicions grew when I returned to the palace, Cassandra has

My heart thundered, echoing loudly in my ears.We were locked in a trance, sparks crackling with anticipation. Clearing my throat, “We shouldn’t be doing this here.” I cautioned softly.He loosens his tie with one hand, the other firmly planted next to my ear. A dangerous glint swirled within his orbs, “Do you think I give a fuck if anyone finds me here with you.” He spat with disdain.“You should care, you are the King.” I seethed, irritation bubbling in my chest. “Just because you can act reckless doesn’t mean that I can, you are going to get me killed.”Lazarus let out a low, sinister chuckle. “Oh Ma Cherie.” His voice laced with a sickening sweetness that shocked my cells.

The question swirled within my mind, a definite answer at the tip of my tongue and yet I couldn’t speak because I knew the consequences of the truth.It would hurt Lazarus and I’d have to face these feelings that I’ve buried. I wasn’t ready nor did I have the privilege of a choice. Both lie, both deceive, and both make me feel things I cannot explain.Lazarus twists his wrist, urging his fingers deeper while the elated buzzing under my skin gradually increased. He flicks the tip of his tongue against my clit, antagonizing me while the electric current zapped in my bloodstream. I released a sharp exhale, completely at his mercy.“Your cunt is dripping down my fingers, can you hear that.” His honeyed voice announced. The lewd sounds of my soaking wet pussy echoed within the room, blending with the vicious pounding of my heart and breathy moans.“Come on Ma Cherie,” he coaxed in that sic

I prided myself on being an expert at reading her emotions, Bonnie’s features were always stiff when she wore her mask. This time, her expression was relaxed and sincere.I glared at Colton, seething. “What the hell have you been doing. Did you bring her here? Are you insane?”She frowned; her eyebrows drew together. “It’s okay Bella, Colton saved me from the era of my ways.”Grinding my teeth, stricken with confusion that I barely registered Bjorn’s voice. “Let’s leave the sisters to catch up, Colton.”Colton nodded, flashing a smile accompanied by a softened gaze. “I’m happy your here Bella, fighting with us.”Bjorn patted his shoulder, jerking his chin towards another booth on the opposite end. “We will be

    Bellatrix SinclairI never envisioned the taste of freedom would be this bittersweet.Folding my arms across my chest, surveying my surroundings as we pass through a tunnel, darkness seeped into the car, goosebumps prickling my flesh.“Are you always like this?” Bjorn’s asked, casually.“Like what?”“On edge.”Turning my head to face him, squandered in the shadows that I could barely make out his expression. “I’m cautious. It’s only natural since I have no idea where we are going.” I responded, inserting a sliver of truth but unwilling to share more details.He chuckled, the sound airy and breezy. “That’s understandable considering what you have been through with that monstrous creature.”I pressed my lips tightly together, biting my tongue to suppress the rebuttal. His tone woven with disdain when speaking of wolves, I could relate in the past, but everything changed. I’d be detesting myself and Melody didn’t deserve that hatred when she saved me from Thomas.Swallowing the painful e

My voice barely above a whisper, getting lost in the chaos. “What do you mean?”Bjorn leveled me with a cold stare, a sharp blade that cut through space. “Your father created the resistance; he fought for a cause and was killed for it. You want to defend these monsters, but the worst is standing next to you.”I slowly turned my head stiffly, peering into his eyes for the truth. “Is this true?”Lazarus’s jaw tensed, a storm brewing in his eyes, clashing of rage and a heavy heart. “Are you really going to listen to him?” He snapped. “The resistance has taken lives, long before today.”“That’s not what I asked.” I snarled, clenching my teeth. “Did you kill my father?”His breathing accelerated and my heart hammered against my ribcage. Lazarus’s lips thinned, eyebrows knotting tightly together. “I.....I will do anything to protect my people.” He declared steely. “I will do anythin

I barely managed to open my eyes, distorted vision that slowly seeped into chaos.My eyes stretched wide-open, shock tearing through me as I watched the explosion of madness. Pushing onto my knees, fire igniting in my joints and searing my muscles. Only moments ago, I was being crowned Luna. The joy and uncertainty of the future was obliterated, crumbling into complete ruins before my eyes.An excruciating burn tore through my lungs, crushing my chest with every breath. “Lila.....Lazarus.” I rasped, searching for them upon the broken stage but I couldn’t find them past the rubble.The menacing roars from the wolves reached my ears, drawing my attention to the perpetrators. They were covered in black from top to bottom, exposing only their eyes devoid of humanity. There was

Lazarus and Donovan were seated next to each other, calm and composed, as if yesterday didn’t happen. Animosity brimming to the surface, only visible to the ones who knew the truth.My chest tightened, agony bleeding from the heart strings that tied us together. No one would guess that he confessed his pain last night, the betrayal of his family became an infected wound that would never heal.Suddenly, those pitch-black orbs locked on mine. “I can feel you worrying, Ma Cherie.” His silvery voice teased. “Focus on yourself, the voting is drawing to a close in a few minutes.”Flashing him a blank stare as I frowned. “Are you okay? It cannot be easy.”

There was no justice in this world, and he knew that better than anyone, The Syndicate managed to take away the only family he had left.Agony chewed at his heart and despair ripped his flesh apart. Lazarus was being consumed by a blackhole of desolation, falling deeper into the abyss until nothing remained but pure rage. None of us knew his wraith, however I suspected it would be a catastrophe for everyone.He disappeared after The Syndicate dismissed him, usually he would have scolded me for breaking the rules. Except, he instructed Christian to escort me back to the palace for the participants.

    Bellatrix Sinclair“Clearly he underestimated my abilities.” Melody glowered, expressing her disbelief. “It will take alot more to knock us out.”Her voice became distorted by the splitting headache, another side-effect of the sleeping drug that added to the density of my body. “This feels weird.” I grumbled under my breath.I should be freaking out by such foreign sensations of her voice creeping into my mind, yet it strangely felt right. Melody spoke softly, appeasing the hesitation in my soul from this revelation. “You will get used to it eventually. If you find it too intrusive, envision a wall separating us and you won’t be able to hear my voice.”She was providing comfort, trying to ease my acceptance that I was no longer human. I don’t think I’ve fully comprehended that I’m a werewolf, especially one in the prophecy – which I didn’t believe but Lazarus seemed adamant.Christian flicked his gaze to the rearview mirror, a mirage of emotions filtering through his orbs before his f

    Lazarus De LoughreyThe Syndicate resided in a castle, atop the mountains that gave the illusion it floated in the sky. It was secluded from the rest of the Kingdom’s, stationed on a vast piece of land without a soul in sight. Although I knew this place wasn’t truly their home, that information was strictly confidential.Now it made sense that whenever I tried to figure out the identities of the other Elder’s - I came to a dead end and that was due to Donovan’s interference.Bellatrix’s curled her fingers into my jacket, bunching the material in a tight grip. She can barely manage to lift her head, shallow pants slipping from her lips. “Lazarus.....what did you do?”I raised her chin, a magnetic collision of those crystalized blues, lids drooping as she fought the drug. “It’s for your own good.” I said, softly.“I’m supposed....to....help.” Her voice faded as she slumped against me.Carefully maneuvering her back to the leather seat, I adjusted the dosage of the sleeping drug to ensur

Not that I blame him, this was a huge betrayal from the only family he had left.Lazarus lifts his gaze to meet mine, arching an eyebrow. “What exactly do you think I am up to?”I sighed, exasperated. “You called for Judah and Valeria. It’s quite obvious that you are planning on confronting your uncle.”“Quite perceptive.” He mused with a smirk.I sucked in a sharp breath, unease curdling in my stomach. “Are you going to tell them about the prophecy and my wolf?”His stare is cryptic, like h
