“They’re here.” Wyatt’s agitated voice drifted into my ears as soon as I regained consciousness. Knowing how easily Wyatt tends to catch me whenever I’m awake, I quickly tried to continue feigning like I was sleeping. “They disguised as Fox to hurt Maia. Who knows what they will do next?” Wyatt’s deep, cold voice, which was filled with possessiveness and fury, invaded my ear.His hands kept stroking my cheeks, helping me relax more and more, that it really gave me the impulse to want to fall asleep again. Asher unconsciously began to exude a cold aura, and his voice was laced with darkness. “They must have known Maia is a pure-blood or the identity Maia harbors…”“It’s my fault. I failed to protect her well.” Oswald suddenly interjected with a self-blame sentence. I had the impulse to clench my fist and bite my lower lips, but upon recalling that I was feigning sleep, I had to let go of the urges. I couldn’t help falling in thought due to their words. Is there something I’m missing
My eyes flew wide open, and I let out a yawn, feeling more relaxed than ever. Now, it felt as if I was completely healed and I was never poisoned.As soon as Wyatt is back, I’ll let him know that I feel great and we can leave the hospital already. According to my knowledge, the poison that can kill me has to be much more potent than the one I’ve ever tasted in the past. And the mediocre one that was sent over wasn’t the one. Talking about poisons, I think I might have become mithridatic considering that, at the end of the various heinous subjections of poison, Henry is always shocked that I’m still alive after all the torture and subjections.Suddenly, a particular gaze fell on me, resulting in furrowed brows. I turned my face towards the door. My frown contorted tighter upon seeing Asher sitting in my ward—alone. A surge of fury invaded me immediately. I rolled my eyes and scoffed coldly at Asher. “You don’t need to watch over me.” I scowled at him without bothering to land my ey
Wyatt stretched out his hand to rub my back as if to comfort me. He leaned forward and brushed his nose with mine. “For daring to bully my baby, how should we punish him?” He responded calmly, playing along to my antics. My face brightened up with a smile immediately. Asher sprang up, and he glared at the both of us immediately. “Hey, what the hell are the both of you on? Isn’t it enough that I’m being given dog food despite helping you couples…”“Hubby, kick his ass!” I interjected Asher’s words while flashing a ruthless grin at Asher. Immediately, I batted my eyes at Wyatt innocently and rubbed my head in Wyatt’s chest coquettishly. Wyatt nodded his head in agreement. He gently separated from me and straightened his back. Without hesitation, Wyatt began to stride towards Asher.Asher’s eyes turned half-lidded, and his eyes fell on Wyatt in disbelief. Seeing Wyatt after him, Asher began to run around the ward as if, in that way, he'd be able to evade Wyatt’s kick. “Wyatt, you’re pu
My lips parted in surprise, still unable to comprehend what Wyatt had just told me. I have always wondered what identity Lorelei had, but it turns out that Lorelei is a witch. A witch? But how? How did a witch come to live in the werewolf clan? Aren’t werewolves and witches enemies? Wait. Talking about witches, I have always believed that they don't exist anymore. How can there be one alive… No. No, it’s multiple now. Suddenly, the confusing thoughts that had always pervaded my mind began to click. No wonder Rex angrily fought Oswald when I explained about the sudden, strange force that collided with me back then.It turns out that Rex already understood everything! “It turns out that that huge force was all Lorelei’s handiwork. The drink in the fridge that stirred up my power was also Lorelei’s handiwork.” I muttered while staring into the distance. If the four knew that Lorelei was behind it, why were they hiding it from me? I guess there must be more to this!‘Even Oswald isn't
Alpha Hudson gnashed his teeth together, fury surging through him. Those damn witches. They are doing too much!The witches had been entangled in a war with the power axis pack three weeks ago. The power axis pack was yet to get over the casualties and the impact of the war from a few weeks ago, yet it turns out that the witch will suddenly attack again, not even giving them the chance to catch their breath. Unlike the werewolf division in packs, the witches are combined and live together, giving them leverage over the power axis pack. Alpha Hudson bangs the table hard. “Those damn witches. They must have known the precarious situation we are in, which is why they decided to do this.” He seethed in fury. The witches must have known that Luna Lena, Natalie, and Phoebe are in labor, which means the alpha, beta, and gamma are weak as well and won’t be in full health until their mates have given birth and return to their healthy phase. Finley and Louie exchanged glances with Hudson.
FILIPPA'S POV“You stupid bitch. Do I need to teach you everything, every damn time?” A heavy kick at my bedroom dilapidated door jolted me awake from my sleep. My heart was beating, and my body was shivering in fright. I stared at the door and I caught the sinister face of Jessica staring at me. My heart skipped in fear and I unconsciously gulped down the saliva forming. I swept a gaze at the clock and the time says 2:59 a.m.“Head. Head maid Jessica. May I ask for the reason you're calling for me at such a time?” Even though I tried to stay calm. My voice somehow ended up coming out in a shaky tone and stutter. Jessica walked toward me and slapped me so hard, that my face whipped to the side. The effect of the slap worsened the dull headache I had. In the broken mirror on the right side of the room, I could see a pink handprint on my cheeks. Tears pooled in my eyes as Jessica grabbed my chin hard and dug her fingernails into my face, but I managed to hold it in, “Didn't I as
FILLIPA'S POVUpon reaching my uncle's office, I raised my hand, musing on whether to knock or not when my uncle's ugly voice resounded in my ear and had me biting my lower lips and clenching my fist to suppress my fear. "Come in."I walked into my uncle's luxurious office, and I saw my uncle sitting behind the alpha's table with an eyeglass lying on the bridge of his nose even though he didn't need it. We werewolves have sharp and clear vision, don't we?Luna Anabelle was sitting next to him with her face caked with makeup as usual, while rubbing his lap with her hand sensually, "Alpha, Luna." I saluted.Both of them ignored my greeting like usual, but this time there was a sinister smile on Alpha Henry's face which made my stomach churn. I unconsciously took a step back.It can't be that Alpha Henry was cooking a wicked plan like asking his guards to throw me into the Red Mist forest where the rogues are to 'train' me or asking me to be injected with an amount of wolfsbane again, so
A hand suddenly grabbed my chin albeit gently and a warm liquid which I recognized as herbal soup poured down my throat.At the bitter taste, I coughed loudly and spit it out immediately.Soon, my face knitted into a frown due to bewilderment and the pain that was coursing through my body.I was thrown down the cliff by the two guards, I hit a giant rock headfirst before I fell into the ocean underneath the cliff.I ended up losing consciousness due to pain and suffocation and I believe that I should be dead by now, yet I don't understand what was going on. Do dead people feel pain?After exerting my strength, my eyes which seemed to be as heavy as lead finally flew wide open. I glanced at the room I was in.I find myself in a room painted white and filled with lavender fragrance. Except for the soft bed I was lying on and a drawer that was placed next to the bed, the room was empty.A spoon appeared in my view which made me glance at the side; I saw a lady in her twenties dressed in
