VALERIE

The faces of ghosts surrounded me, their mouths wide open and eyes as white as snow even though they had no life in them.

I raised my hand, struggling so hard to survive the water.

Is this where it all ends? I remembered my promises to Jasmine, Lucian, and Alexander. Even the promise I made to Renee and myself. Will it all end here? In the dark waters?

I pinned my lips against each other, daring not to open my mouth.

One of my hands touched a skull in the water and a sickening feeling inhabited my body. My heart had stopped beating, and the dull light that sneaked into the water was slowly fading away, making the underneath as dark as the surface.

Just as my eyes were about to slam shut forever, a hand delved into the water, and I was grabbed by the collar.

I felt myself being dragged up and out of the water before the ghosts could find a way to enter my body and eat me up from inside.

I parted my lips and breathed heavily, my life returning to me as I hit the surface.

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Demons and ashes

    VALERIE I swerved my head around, my heart thumping loudly in my chest. I could feel my breath leaving my body as I stood in that dimly lit hallway. "Is someone there?" I asked, going against the warning that echoed in my mind to keep silent.Silence followed my question and lasted for over three minutes. I shot my head back, slowly realizing that I must have been hallucinating. My mind was probably making voices up in my head out of fear.I sighed in relief and turned around, continuing my walk to wherever the antidote might be. My heart skipped when I heard footsteps echo in the hallway. I stopped walking, my hands trembling violently beside me. I leaned on the cold wall and gripped the hem of my shirt as I tried to control my fast and ragged breathing. The footsteps stopped and I heard a grunt. My eyes widened, and my jaws dropped in dismay. My mind snapped back to the boatman and chills rushed down my spine.What if the whole story about demons eating up people in the Isle

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Finding the antidote

    VALERIE It seemed impossible to believe but there it was, standing gallantly on the stand in the middle of the hall. I felt like all the troubles and fights had finally come to an end. Right before me was the sole reason I was on that forbidden island. With a heart thumping in excitement and joy, I took a step forward and swiftly covered the distance between the stand and me. I paused and stared at the bottle of elixir like it was a priceless trophy. With trembling hands, I reached for it, and the moment my hand grasped it, a feeling that I had never felt before enveloped me. My lips shook and tears gathered in my eyes. Tears of accomplishment and happiness filled my eyes and rolled down my reddened cheeks.I raised it from the stand and stared keenly at it in admiration, picturing Killian sitting up on the bed, alive and well. "I promised to survive. I promise you'll survive," I muttered, a smile spread out across my face. "Are you sure about that?" A familiar voice muttered b

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Fight to death

    VALERIE My skin tingled as I waited for the pain to spread across my body, but nothing came. I slowly turned away from the engraved words to look at her. To my astonishment, she was staring right at what I was staring at, bearing the same expression that I had when I saw it. I looked at the words and then back at her, a sinister idea slipping into my mind. I jerked away from the wall and rushed towards the sword, sweeping it up from the floor. She snapped out of the trance she was in and spun around, but before she could restore her stance, my sword was already drawn and aiming for her belly. Before she could parry the attack, I had sunk the blade into her belly. A gasp echoed in the hall and silence fell between us. We stood rooted at a spot, only separated by a sword that was stuck in her belly. She looked up, her eyes dark and rheumy. Blood dripped from her mouth, and her lips shook. Her eyes slowly grew lifeless, and her skin turned pale. "You are the one who

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Her end

    VALERIE I rose and stared at her pale body which had already gone limp under the chandelier.I felt no remorse for her or guilt for what I had done. She deserved every bit of the attack and every pain she felt when those glasses sank into her body.I turned around and began to walk away, clutching the pouch, which was the priceless item that I risked my life for.On getting to the door, my heart tightened and fear flashed through me.With shaking hands, I gripped the handles weakly and pushed the door.It pulled open at the slight nudge and my heart skipped in joy.I didn't waste a second more in that hall as I swiftly walked out.The moment my feet stepped out of the tower, I felt a wave coarse through me. A large smile appeared on my face and my feet shook in excitement. I didn't bother taking a look at the tower but proceeded with moving towards the dark waters. I took a deep breath, silently reciting the words that I had seen on the wall. Chills surged through my spine when my

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Unexpected place

    VALERIE I narrowed my eyes at her question and scoffed. I was certain that she wasn't happy that I was back. "Shouldn't I be asking you that instead?" I asked, glaring at her. "You didn't seem to get punished for your sassy behavior over there," she muttered."Why? Are you disappointed to find out that none of the traumas I faced there broke me down?" I blurted out, making sure that the mockery was evident in my voice.She scoffed and sat up, flipping her long lustrous hair to the side as she admired her manicure. My lips turned up as I watched her, slowly burning out my patience. "Why am I not in the Blood Moon Pack?" I snapped. "Hush!" She snapped, placing her hand over my heavily glossed lips. "You are in a sacred place. Do not make too much noise," she whispered. I twitched up my lips in disgust but unwillingly obeyed her. I looked around the room and realized that it was a living room. "How is a living room your sacred place?" I asked sassily. She darted her eyes in my

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Back to the Blood Moon Pack

    VALERIE "My lady!" Beta Neil exclaimed and rushed towards the car I was in as we drove in. He pulled the door open and stood aside for me with his head bowed. I felt an unexplainable happiness and satisfaction rock my body the moment the car drove into the manor of the Blood Moon Pack. I stepped out of the car, my face radiating with a smile over my accomplishment. The Beta smiled when he saw me, excited that I came back alive with the antidote as well. "Alpha Killian is still alive, right?" I asked the moment I faced him. "Yes. We all have been waiting for your arrival," he replied and bowed again. I smiled and turned to face Theo and Liam. "Thank you for protecting me," I muttered. "No, my lady, we should be thanking you for saving our lives," Liam responded. I chuckled and rubbed their broad shoulders, earning shocked gasps from them before walking away with the beta. Everywhere looked quite different even though I had lived there for months. Perhaps, it was the effect

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   The accusation

    VALERIE My heart stopped beating the moment his lips pressed against mine. A warm feeling washed over my body and my legs stopped shaking. He pulled away and blinked repeatedly before grasping my hand. His eyes held emotions that I couldn't interpret even though the meaning was clear to me and everyone surrounding us.His lips trembled, and his chest rose and fell, causing a knot to form in my throat."Go on," he whispered tenderly to me, brushing my hair back with his hand before letting go of my hand. He glanced over at Michelle and nodded towards her. "Come on, take her in and prepare the antidote for Killian," he said in a completely different tone. Happiness rippled through me, and I tried hard not to burst into laughter or mockery before everyone. Michelle, who was almost numb from shock nodded slowly and began to climb the stairs with heavy steps. A smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I trailed after Michelle. We didn't say a word to one another as we walked acros

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Do that again

    VALERIE Lucian parted his lips, ready to pass out his judgment on me. "Why should she be treated that way after what she went through to find the antidote?" Lucian questioned me, snapping a glare at Michelle. "Do you even have a conscience?" He snapped at Michelle and her jaws dropped. "How sure are you that she went to the Isle of the Blessed? It's possible that she stayed at a place and returned with a drug prepared by a witch!" She groused, still trying to turn Lucian against me. "Why don't you focus on helping him recover instead of laying blame!" Lucian growled at her and she jumped, embarrassment smeared against her face. "But…" Lucian grabbed me and raised my shirt, pointing at the wound on my belly. "Is that enough to prove that she went there? Will she hurt herself so bad to lie?" He snapped. He sighed and dug his hand into his hair, groaning in anger as he glared at her in annoyance. "She did her part by going to the cursed Isle and getting the antidote, why don't

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Elimination

    KILLIAN I had thought for a second that she was Valerie but when I peered closer, I realized that she was just someone who resembled her.Her chestnut eyes traveled around the room with fear and tears gathering in them.I could tell from her behavior that she was still a new girl from the club which meant that her audition could be announced that night.She swept her head to the side as she danced slowly to the beat. Her hips swayed seductively while her long smooth legs slid around the stage.Her hand reached for the sparkling red gown she wore and ripped it open, revealing the pair of gem-covered cropped top and thong.She swept her hair back and gripped the pole in the middle of the stage, running her nails along it, a false smile on her young, beautiful face.She wrapped her legs around the pole and arched her back, running her hand along her thighs as she twirled on the pole.She unwrapped one of her legs from the pole and spread it, showing off the molds hidden behind the thin

    KILLIAN "Should we go over to the VIP section?" He asked as he wrapped the bandana around his neck. I hesitated, feeling a need to leave the cave after the discovery of the mark on his neck."No, I didn't book a reservation. I will leave—" "A man of your caliber doesn't need a reservation. You always have one waiting for you," he laughed and hit me playfully. I maintained a straight face, not blinking at his jokes. "If you still feel like leaving because of the reservation then don't worry…" he paused and swung his head around before moving closer. "I booked two seats," he whispered, and my eyes dimmed. "Why two?" I asked, getting suspicious."Nothing. I just felt like doing that. Besides, it turned out to be useful, didn't it?" He shrugged, grinning widely.I narrowed my eyes, not believing a single word he spewed out."Why do I have this feeling that you know of my coming?" I muttered, staring at him in suspicion. He laughed loudly, throwing his head back. "What?" He snappe

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Remember me?

    KILLIAN He shook when that question slipped out of my mouth. "What?" He whispered in a trembling voice, staggering back. I gripped his chin and forced him to look into my blazing eyes. "You are not Damion, are you?" I asked. He scoffed loudly, disbelief darting across his orbs. "I can't believe this! What the heck has gotten into you, huh? Why do you hate me so much!" He groused, tears glistening in his eyes. My throat knotted, and guilt tried to find its way into my mind, but I pushed it aside, ignoring the victim card he was trying to play. "You never liked me from the beginning. You killed my mate and yet I forgave you, and… and yet you have the guts to try to put words in my mouth! Is that your way of taking my life after doing that to my mate, you bastard?" He growled. I scoffed and shrugged nonchalantly, narrowing my eyes without any ounce of remorse."Until I'm clarified that you're Damion, I'll keep hunting you," I muttered and turned around, walking out of the roofto

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Where is Damion?

    KILLIAN Lucian pushed the door open and walked in when we got no response after countless knocks. I trailed after him into the room and slammed the door shut behind me. My eyes fell on a body under a duvet and I needed no one to tell me that she was the one curled up in there. "Little Val?" Lucian called out to her but got no response. I sighed in frustration and made to move closer but Lucian held me back.My eyes dimmed in shock at his strange behavior towards me."Lucian?" I muttered, slowly getting enraged.He turned and faced me, dropping his hand which held me back."You've caused enough trouble for everyone. I'll advise you to stay away from her if you want her to be happy," he muttered, and my heart clenched in fury."You think I'm the cause of her unhappiness?" I scoffed in disbelief, glaring at him.He took a step closer, his brows furrowing together."If you hadn't started this mess in the first place, little Val would have been alright and happy," he spat.I balled my

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   She is back

    MICHELLE A smile spread out across my face as I watched her struggle to stay alive inside Valerie's body. "Give it up, Asmodeus, Valerie Garrett has returned," I snarled. Her head jerked up, and she growled in fury, then leaped towards me, knocking out my hand, which gripped her shoulder. Her hand reached for my neck and she pushed me roughly, hitting my back on the wall. My heart skipped but I maintained my stance and sank my nails into her flesh, sinking my teeth into my bottom lip. A dark cloud darted across her eyes and her grip around my neck tightened. "What did you say about my father, bitch?!" She growled in rage. I stiffened in shock and my eyes darkened as the realization hit me Valerie was back. She had subdued Asmodeus, and she wasn't just back to dominate her body and save the Lycan kings; she was back to seek revenge, to destroy. "If you didn't hear what I said then you wouldn't unlock yourself and come out," I wheezed, struggling to breathe as she choked me.

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Give it up

    VALERIE (Asmodeus)The hall was silent as all eyes were fixed on Michelle, demanding an explanation for her behavior. My fist clenched under the table as I glared warningly at her. Sweat broke out on my back as I thought of ways to stop her without creating more suspicions around me. "I think we're being attacked," Michelle blurted out. My nails sank into my palm and my throat knotted, my burning gaze fixed on Michelle's face. She turned and stared at me, her lips twitched into a smirk. She turned and faced the Luna again, that sinister smile lurking around her sharp dark eyes. "There is something that I must confess, Luna," she mumbled I figured out that she might have nothing to lose in this as Damion was behind her and would support her against me. I had to do something before it was too late. "Luna…" she paused and looked at me before facing the Luna, fake tears gathering in her eyes. "There is a—" I screamed in agony and gripped my stomach, dropping out of my chair. E

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Game over?

    VALERIE (Asmodeus)Damion glanced at me again and looked away, fidgeting slightly in his seat. I smiled ruefully and swerved my head in Michelle's direction. Her eyes locked with mine and she quickly looked away, shivering slightly. My lips twitched in excitement at how I had trapped them in my nest. The only way they could escape was to obey my words and demands. I looked at the woman again, knowing exactly how to use them as my pawns to accomplish what I had in mind. "The Lycan kings aren't here yet?" The Luna Queen asked for the fourth time since everyone arrived and took their seats. "No, my lady," her maidservant replied and she sighed in disappointment, shaking her head. "Luna, are you sure they'll come? I heard that they hardly attend gatherings," the woman muttered. The Luna pouted in anger and sighed again, unable to defend her sons. "I wonder who told you that," a hard voice echoed in the hall and everyone swerved their head in the direction of the voice. My throat

    VALERIE (Asmodeus)I hummed as I analyzed the bracelets before me. I smelled of citrus and the suffocating scent of Valerie Garrett. "You should try this on," Bianca said, extending a bracelet towards me. I raised my head in her direction and stared down at the pearl bracelet dangling in her outstretched hand. I forced a smile into my face and took the bracelet then slipped it around my wrist. I stared at the pearl bracelet strapped around my wrist and chuckled in excitement.It was hard to believe that Valerie lived happily in the Nox household while I was locked away underneath the freezing dark waters of the Isle of the Blessed.A cold touch on my shoulder caused me to flinch in fear. I sighed in relief when I saw Bianca's face staring down at me with worry etched against her face. "You seemed to be lost in deep thoughts," Bianca blurted out. I forced a smile into my face and shook my head. "No, no, it's nothing serious," I muttered, adding a low, nervous laughter at the e

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   What happened to Damion?

    VALERIE We swerved our heads in the direction of the scream, and my eyes dimmed when they fell on Michelle. I narrowed my eyes, the worry that sprang up in my heart slowly settling down."Shit!" Garam spat in rage and let go of my neck. Michelle marched towards us, her eyes blazing in anger and her clenched fist swinging beside her. "You bastard!" She growled and grabbed his collar, throwing him off me. His back slammed against the wall and it cracked while he groaned out in pain. "What the fuck did you do to Damion?" She groused and slapped him hard on the face. My brows raised in surprise as I watched her land hit after hit on him. She raised her fist to slam his fist for the umpteenth time but he grabbed her fist, shoving her back. He staggered up and wiped the blood that dripped from the cut on his lower lip. "You are no different from me, bitch!" Garam spat at her. She was taken aback by his outburst, and for a moment, they stood still, fuming in anger and glaring at e
