LOGINSean Six Months Later.The air in the North had changed. It no longer smelled of old blood and secrets; it smelled of pine, fresh rain, and hope. The reconstruction was a monumental task, but for the first time in a century, the wolves of the North and South worked side-by-side.Since the war, Winny has been silent, the same way Elias has been silent and distant. Lily, however, took it upon herself to take care of Elias and make sure he didn’t mourn too much. Eventually, Lily succeeded in making Elias’s life bright again, and they have both found new love within themselves. It was hard for both of them, but time heals, but never forget. They had Grace’s pictures decorated all over their house. As for Winny, I was still struggling with making her live on. She put her life on pause, simply because Grace was not in it. I didn’t try to intrude or make her feel better or try to make her forget the pain, she needed to go through it, alone. Grace was the first nice person to her since Ray
SeanThe moment Grace’s heart stopped, the air around the Citadel began to hum. It started as a low vibration in the soles of my feet and grew into a deafening roar. Winny, who had been slumped against the stone, suddenly stood upright. The Royal Mark on her neck—the one everyone thought was a curse—began to glow with a blinding, ethereal gold light.I remember the first time I saw that light, the way I felt the intensity of her power in that bonding water when we first started our contract. My heart tightened. She has been provoked.Winny screamed, as if she were tearing out of a bondage, a place she had been locked. Viktor was in a dilemma because Winny was simply helping him finish a bond that never existed. The people around her backed away.“Grace!” She yelled. This was not good, I can sense it. Grace was the only thing Winny ever knew, the only family she had, and the one person who always showed up for her. Grace still lay on Elias’s arms, lifeless, while Elias cried silently.
SEAN"Caleb," I whispered, the name feeling like a shard of glass in my throat. I should have known, I felt it. I knew something must be odd about him. Elias’s revelation hadn't just cleared the air; it had set the room on fire. Now we know exactly where we are headed. I thought I would be chasing Lena right now, but I am one hundred percent sure Caleb has Winny.Viktor’s heir. Who could have thought? He played so perfectly and blended in, yet I should have listened to my instincts.I looked at Elias. His face was a mask of cold fury, but his hands were trembling as he looked at Grace. Among all of us in the room, Grace was the most dangerous right now. I still have a feeling Winny would be fine; she has the power to be safe till I find her, but Grace, her tears had frozen, her eyes reddened from fury. She vibrated vigorously while still standing. Elias held her, trying to do for her, but he himself was a bag of anger already spilling out."Dax! Get the units ready!" I roared, my v
SEAN.A few hours of worry might be a fluke, but forty-eight hours of joy hearing from or seeing Winny was getting alarming. I couldn’t concentrate all day. A pile of documents sat on the left corner of my desk, but I sat there, doing nothing. Every urge to pick up the phone and call Winny again or Grace kept making me feel like an intruder. But after two days, that’s the height of it. I got off my chair and called Grace who picked it up instantly.“I was just about to call you! Have you seen Winny? She was supposed to come to me two days ago.” Grace panted as if she had been running. But her panic was nothing compared to mine. I should have listened to my instincts. Fucking two days!“She is meant to be with you, Grace. Call Elias. Both of you, meet me at my house now.” I commanded.“We would be right there.” After dropping the phone, I squeezed it so hard that the screen cracked. Pressure built up in my chest. I paced around, trying to think of the possibilities of what went wro
SEANI swear I had my eye on her a few minutes ago. She couldn’t have left without telling me and even if she had, she would have left a note or sent a servant.I still had guests to attend to but I made the whole event because of her, but we haven’t even gotten to that part yet. Somewhere in the room, I saw that Mark was back in, but he was speaking with someone I could almost recognise…a lady.She had her back turned to me and her dress suggests she didn’t plan to be here at this moment. She was dressed in black, adding a face mask and a face cap.I got closer to them. Just as I was about to get to them, Caleb, the dude I saw earlier speaking with Winny, took the lady’s hand and dragged her out.I froze and just watched the scene unfold before me. The lady made a quick mistake. She turned back and our eyes locked.Instantly, I called the guests to secure all exits. No one must come in and no one must step out. I kept an eye on Caleb but in the blink of an eye, they had disappeared.
WINNY.I watched Mark get humiliated and satisfaction filled my heart. I’d gotten Mrs Grant’s contact two days ago when I just became Alpha of WinterRay. She’s told me she'd like to see me at the gala. We clocked almost immediately and before we both realised, we were already talking about our personal lives which had Mark involved.Honestly, I didn’t think Mark would really walk up to me today, but it is fun to see that he regrets everything he has done to me and has seen how valuable I have become, it’s a huge slap to his face and I would continue to triumph in it.Sean stepped close to me. He looked effortlessly catchy, like every other day. But today, I feel more flexible around him. “Its been a while, my love,” Sean said and kissed the back of my palm. I smiled back, my heart racing. He closed in and quickly kissed me. It wasn’t news that we were in a relationship, yet, people were stunned to see him show his affection in public. I blushed but embraced it. I wouldn’t shy away a
Sean.Everyone was gathered an hour after I had called for the pack meeting. I needed to do this now. They all sat in their silken gowns and pants, all whispering about their thoughts. Lena and Mark were also present, sitting beside each other. I caught them talking at some point. It never occurre
Sean.It’s been five days since she left. I go to the edge of the Haunted every morning, afternoon, and night, hoping she would emerge miraculously from the woods and jump into my arms.But every time I went to check on her, she never came out. There was no trace of her, apart from the stabbing fee
WinnyThe wolf disappeared when the strange feeling enveloped me and set my heart ablaze. I still couldn’t tell if it was real or not, but I was determined to leave this place as soon as I came.I came across a path that was divided into three roads. Darkness swallowed the little I could see from w
Winny.They say confidence comes at the most unexpected time. My body still felt foreign to me as I drove down the city streets, the only place that once gave me peace. I needed to talk to my father.Every time I caught a glimpse of my arm on the wheel, I saw the young girl’s cries and pleading fac
