Aliyah opened her eyes to discover she was in a cave. It took only seconds for details of last night to flood her mind and she sat up with a jerk. She was alone in the cave but she was covered with a grey long coat. She smiled and brought the coat to her nose, breathing in the dead plant cell she was surprised to find that she has come to like. She hurriedly put on the coat to hide her nakedness and stood up, wondering where Edward could be and why he would leave her alone.She remembered he had said that he wanted to go and feed last night, did he return last night? He must have otherwise how would she have his coat? She walked to the mouth of the cave and looked around. The forest was as beautiful as ever with everything so colorful and the sun so bright in the sky. She squint her eyes at the bright light and brought up her hand to block the sun from her face as she searched around. The birds were chirping melodious songs and she could see the animals running around and feeding thei
Aliyah wowed at the mansion in front of her. Edward let go of her waist then and she glanced around. She always thought her father’s mansion was big but this one here, this one house was as big as their training ground and their training ground is considered humongous as it covered nearly half of their landscape. “This is big,” she said at last.“What is a prince without a palace?” Edward asked with a raised eyebrow, deriving a chuckle from her and he smiled softly at that. “Come,” he said, walking towards the big doors. “I have owned this castle since the 1100s.”“What?” Aliyah asked, counting quickly in her mind. “That is 923 years ago.”Edward glanced at her with a raised eyebrow, “how old am I?”“How old are you?” she asked, now really intrigued.“I will be 2,138 years in eight days.”“Holy moly, what?” She asked and he chuckled and pushed open the doors. He stepped inside and glanced around, he could already tell that Rasmus was not at home and he wondered where he would be. He d
“Maximus, stop this, it is not going to end well for you. You are lucky that the alpha left you alive after you made such suggestion,” A red-haired woman said to the man that was pacing to and fro in the living room.“All I said was the truth. You do not understand the situation of things here. If High Howlers find out, we are all doomed,” Maximus said.“We will figure it out. You just have to let the sleeping dog lie. Let the alpha find a way to sort it out.”“Whose side are you on, woman?”“Yours, Maximus.” The woman sighed and went to him. “Listen, we may be old and all, but I still don’t want to lose my mate, I still don’t want to be left alone.”“Alan is so strong-headed. When his father was still around, he was a more matured man to be reasoned it.” Maximus complained.“Oh please, Maximus, Alan is a much stronger alpha than Jonathan. Even Jonathan said so himself and was proud to transfer his powers to him on his deathbed. Listen, Maximus, this is Alan’s only child. It’s not lik
Rasmus stared at the girl that was sitting on the couch clutching onto his master’s coat that she was wearing. He sighed and his eyes went to the mark on her neck. He had seen it a dozen times now but every single time still felt like the first time and comes as a shock. He still couldn’t believe that his master has found his mate at long last and it was a howler, the very creature he hates the most.He sighed and withdrew his gaze, standing in his position as he waits for what she would order from him. His Prince has left over an hour ago and he didn’t tell him where he was going only that he should watch over her and provide her with every need she demands from him. He let his gaze wander on her again, she looked so young, maybe seventeen or nineteen tops. Just how did it happen, he was dying to know, however, he could remember his prince’s order not to question her about anything.A soft rumbling, although as silent as it was made him look at her then, she gulped and pretended like
Sean stared at the living room that had become a mess and he couldn’t believe his eyes. He watched the two big wolves fighting in the living room, one brown and one black. Shredded clothes were everywhere and it was obvious that they had both turned in anger. His gaze went to the crying woman at the corner who looked lost and no doubt trying to get her mate to calm down with the mind link.“Sean, what is happening?” Aton asked, rushing over.“I don’t know, I just got here, I was alerted by Jim. What about you?” he asked.“Luna called me with the mind link,” he answered before approaching the two wolves. “Alpha, please calm down, this is not the best way to settle this.”Alan roared angrily and bit onto Maximus neck and he was flinging him against the wall. The wall decoration crashed into smithereens on the floor and Scarlet screamed, tears trailing down her cheeks. Sean felt his heart go out to the woman, he has never seen her so weak or so broken. She used to always be a smiling wom
“Wow,” Aliyah whistled when Rasmus drove out the Black Maybach and her eyes ran over the sleek color before going to the man beside her. “You outrun this?”Edward smirked and didn’t answer. He opened the backseat door and Aliyah entered while he entered after her. Rasmus glanced at them at the rearview mirror and nodded when he saw the go ahead from Edward and the car drove out of the property.When they got to the human realm, Aliyah wowed. If she was still in her pack, then she definitely would be getting a beating for coming her so good thing she won’t be going back there for a while and which means she can finally have a good tour in the place, something she has never been able to do. Rasmus took them to the mall and they went to different shops, picking out nice clothes for her.When their hands were full, Aliyah wondered if maybe she had bought a little too much but Edward didn’t seem to mind as he ordered Rasmus to take the bags to the car and asked her if there was anything el
“My Prince,” Rasmus rushed to Edward when he saw him. “It’s the rogues, I just saw them.”Edward growled softly, “which way?”“Towards the forest, they were in their true forms,” Rasmus answered, clearly surprised at what he just witnessed. “And, it looks like they were deranged or something, their eyes…” he was saying but Edward had already sprinted away and he followed him, shoving his phone into his pocket.Approaching the forest, they heard their howls and Edward increased his pace. The rogues were just at the forest edge and they watched him come. He stopped, few meters from them as he watched them. They didn’t attack and he didn’t want to start the fight as well. Rasmus caught up shortly after and he stood beside him, he glanced from Edward to the wolves and back to Edward again. He wanted to ask a lot of questions but he knew that was not the time.A Rogue stepped forward and he growled at them. Edward watched him, his claws slowly elongating, getting ready for the fight he kne
Irene sighed and licked her lips. “What are we going to do? Without the location spell I can’t find her.”“Then I will burn the whole forest down to find them,” Edward replied, his eyes glaring red and when he sensed a human watching him, his gaze turned to her sharply and he flashed his fangs at her, making her cower in fear.“Edward,” Irene put her hand on him, “calm down, she is innocent.”Edward growled, “the more I stay here, the more I am wasting time.”“But what are you going to do?”“I already told you what I am going to do.”“You can’t do that, you will annoy the demons and I don’t need to remind you that you are not in peaceful term with them already.” She sighed and licked her lips, “is there a scent you perceived here other than hers?”“Yes. Witches,” he replied.“Where exactly?”Edward took a long sniff, “here,” he pointed to the chair he was sitting on earlier.Irene nodded and went over to the chair. Placing her hand on it, she closed her eyes and started muttering an i
