VALERIE

The shock she felt was so heavy that it made the walls of the cell shake when she fell to the ground.

I was still for a moment, waiting for the next reaction before jumping to a conclusion.

"What did you say?" Her quivering voice filled the dark cell, causing a smirk to tug at the corner of my lips.

"You are a witch, Renee. I'm certain about it," I repeated, earning another horrified gasp from her.

She slowly gripped the bars and leaned forward, her eyes as wide saucers.

"Who are you?" She whispered in a ghostly voice.

I smiled and leaned closer, my brows raised in pride.

"Someone that you can never beat."

I saw her throat bob when those words left my mouth.

Silence fell on her and all she could do was stare at me like she had seen a ghost.

I got tired of waiting and flickered my fingers over her face.

She jumped and blinked severally, trying to put her distorted mind in order.

She took slow steps forward, her face scrunched up in a deep frown.

"What do you want?"

    VALERIE "But…" I paused and pouted in anger. He narrowed his eyes and began to trudge away. I huffed in disappointment and forced my feet to shuffle after him. "I need to save someone!" I snapped. His silence only made my heart heavier and almost brought tears to my eyes. I had to get away as fast as I could, even if it meant committing another crime upon the crimes that I had already committed. I clenched my fist, my heart constricting in anger. I looked down at the pants that I wore, and my throat knotted. This was the only way I could escape from him and save Jasmine as well. My hand moved to the belt strapped around my waist and pulled out the blade from its sheath. I took quick steps towards him and raised the blade in the air, ready to sink it into his neck. Jasmine's words snapped into my mind and my hand froze. It felt like a force was holding me back, preventing me from committing murder. "Get back to your senses, Valerie, get back to your senses!" Jade's warning

    VALERIE I stood at the spot, dazed and confused. "What did you say?" I muttered, my breath almost ceasing. He pulled the prison door open and grabbed my wrist, pulling me out of the cell. A breath escaped my parched lips as my body got dragged out of the suffocating cell room. He swung back into the cell and grabbed Jasmine, dragging her out as well. He turned and faced me, a deep frown laced against his face. "If you have anything to say to her then do it quickly!" He snapped. My heart leaped for joy and my jaws dropped, my eyes widening in surprise. I turned around and faced Jasmine, my hand wrapping around her arm. "I will miss this Jasmine," I whispered, tears gathering in my eyes. She sniffed, her face heating up and tears welling up in her eyes. "Thank you for showing up in my life, Val," she whispered. I hugged her, sniffing in the lavender scent that hung on her. "Don't ever let anyone bring down your esteem. Lift your head high no matter what people think of you

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   A genuine smile

    VALERIE I couldn't overcome the temptation to take a nap anymore. I slammed my eyes shut and dropped my head into his chest, drifting into darkness. I was afraid of getting trapped by the fake Valerie or another creature, but I didn't dream about them. The only thing that I saw was the dark tower standing some distance away. My brows raised as several voices followed a mocking laughter, laughing exactly the way the first voice laughed.Whispers of my name filled the air, making me shiver. I looked down at my feet and gasped when I realized that I was standing in the dark waters. I noticed that I wasn't sinking and I wasn't feeling the water beneath my feet. Everything seemed so real, including my feelings. I looked around and realized that there was nothing in sight aside from the dark waters I stood on and the dark tower some distance away from me. There was not even a single flying insect or bird flying around. The place was as silent as a graveyard— even a graveyard made more

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Before it began

    VALERIE The man rowed the boat slowly and silently, his eyes fixed on the peak of the dark tower a distance away. I itched to say something to him to ease off the tension weighing on me. "How long will it take to row to the other side?" I asked, staring at his scarred face. He darted his one eye towards me, his lips stretched out in a thin line. He seemed to be triggered by the harmless words that I had said to him. "You… you don't have to worry about answering," I quickly added. He grunted and looked away, staring at the tower behind me. We were sitting across each other in the boat and this made it quite hard to notice anything behind me. I stared at the man's wrinkled face again, having a sickening feeling in the pit of my belly. His left eye looked like it was forcefully gouged out years ago. Perhaps, that was how he got the scar that ran down to his cheek. I wondered if it was done by the demons that always wake up when darkness takes over the sky. I didn't ask any que

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Be warned!

    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.

    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   Unending nightmare

    MICHELLE I rushed to the garage and called out to Lucian before he got into the car. He paused and looked up, raising his brows in question. I placed a large, innocent smile on my face as I walked up to him. "You are going to see Adriana, aren't you?" I asked, grinning. He tilted his head to the side and hummed in response, the silent question of 'what do you want' still rotating in his eyes. "I want to visit Adriana but I fear they won't let me in if I go alone. I want to see how she is faring," I blurted out, fully aware that Killian hadn't told him of his suspicions. At least, the conflict they had between them has become quite helpful now. His huff snapped me back to the conversation and forced me to look at his face. A smirk of anger was evident on his face, making me wonder if I was wrong with my conclusion. "Why do you care so much about seeing her? Is there anything you want to know?" He asked and my throat knotted. What if I was wrong? What if he had suspected me

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   How does it feel?

    MICHELLE I couldn't stop fidgeting as I paced around the garden with Valerie's words echoing in my mind. I bit my fingers, thinking of ways that I could silence her before the day of her judgment. I had taken the risk of silencing Adriana and my maidservant, it would be a waste if I let Valerie expose me after all my efforts. But if I have to silence Valerie, then I have to keep the guards guarding the dungeon quiet as well. I groaned in frustration and turned around but collided with a maid.The coffee pot on the tray turned over and the steaming brown coffee splashed on me."Why is everything getting worse!" I screamed, feeling a burning, painful sensation gnawing on my skin. The maid went on her knees and bowed lowly. "Forgive me, my lady!" She said, trembling slightly. "Sorry?" I snapped, silently muttering spells that eased the pain throbbing at the spot the hot coffee hit. "Will your worthless apology heal the scalds on my skin?" I growled at her "No, my lady, but I wil

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   The killer

    KILLIAN I stared solemnly at the clear sky then shifted my gaze to the ground below, watching as people bustled around the manor, moving in and out through the gate with different emotions scribbled against their faces.I had spent the night in the hospital, waiting for Adriana to regain consciousness and spill out the rascal that dared to attempt killing her, but with the doctor's persuasion that she wouldn't be waking up at any moment, I had to leave helplessly.Since the incident, I have tried to understand the circumstances surrounding Valerie and the connection between the disasters that occurred yesterday. The words she said still echoed in my mind but I hadn't brought myself to think about it due to what happened to my sister and the maidservant.Did she commit those crimes to avenge her father whom she claimed we murdered? Even if she did, what has that got to do with the maidservant that was thrown off the roof?I scoffed and shook my head, taking another swig of the alcohol

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   She knows

    MICHELLE I gasped and staggered back, clinging to the cold wall with my hair springing up. "Damion?" I snapped, heaving loudly at the monstrous face he had on.He slowly got up and breathed out smoke as he marched towards me with a clenched fist covered in veins. I shrieked loudly and jerked my head to the side, closing my eyes at the disgusting mark on his face. "What the hell are you doing?" I growled, wrinkling my nose as the demon's disgusting breath hit my face. "Fucking stop!" I growled in frustration. "Why did you do that? Why did you make Valerie take the fall?" He groused. I scoffed loudly and twitched up my lips in disgust and mockery. "You expect me to take the fall after planning that for Adriana?" I snapped. "You should have thought of a way to escape before carrying out your evil-doing," he fired back at him. Anger surged through me and I gritted my teeth, glaring at him. "Get Damion's face back, you look disgusting!" I spat at him in disdain. My words took h

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Everything is over

    MICHELLE A gasp slipped out of her mouth when Neil dangled the necklace in the air. She staggered back, rubbing her trembling hand across her neck. She raised her hand and pointed at the necklace before her, her eyes as wide as saucers. "That… that necklace…" she stuttered, her lips trembling. "That is the necklace I sent to you, isn't it?" Lucian snapped, glaring hatefully at her. "I…" Valerie stuttered. Her lips kept trembling as she couldn't find the right convincing words to defend herself with. I smirked, knowing that I had done excellent work by trapping her.I had switched the necklace with a fake one when she refused to wear it this morning. I knew Bianca would persuade her to wear it which she did, but funnily, she wore the fake one while I had the one Killian and Lucian sent to her.My initial plan was to drop it in the ceiling space to trap her but it still came out useful here."Her blood is on it, which means you pushed her," Killian said, sighing loudly in disappo

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Stuck in the middle

    VALERIE I curled up in the ceiling space, my clothes dampened with sweat. I sighed and checked the time, cursing silently. I bit my lips, wondering why the Pack's doctor would go so far to get the dreadful incense. I had to take my revenge tonight or I would never be able to get a chance to do so.As I sat on the dusty ground, lost in thought, a loud thud on the ceiling space jerked me back to the dreaded reality.I sprang up on my knees, my hands trembling in fear. The thud came again, followed by a hiss. I dimmed my eyes in confusion, staring at the dim light that flashed across the farther part of the ceiling space. I gasped in fear and clasped my hand over my mouth, my heart thumping loudly in my chest. I began to wonder if Michelle had deceived me by bringing me up here. After some minutes, the thud stopped, and everywhere became silent again, but as time passed, a low muffled sound slipped into my ears.I crouched in the dark ceiling space, my heart racing as I listened

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Surprise!

    MICHELLE I gasped and snatched my hand out of her strong grip."Why… why are you like that?" I snapped, filled with shock. She glanced around as if searching for someone before gripping my hand again. "You have to help me hide away from the Pack's doctor!" She snapped, her eyes filled with fear and desperation. I looked around the empty hall and then back at her, raising my brows in question. "What are you talking about? Why in the world will you be afraid of that doctor?" I scoffed.Her blood drained and her eyes got wider as dread clouded her eyes."She has an incense that could bring out a demon fully. She knows that I have a demon in me!" She blurted out.My jaws fell and I swung my head around, wondering what I should do. If the Lycan kings find out that I helped her hide, then it would be a disaster for me."I'm sorry, but I can't help here," I muttered, trying to shake her grip off my wrist, but she held on tight, glaring at me."You won't help me?" She snapped, sinking he

    MICHELLE I stood at the edge of the crowd, forcing a smile as Adriana danced with her sister, Arlene. My heart would always skip a beat every time she turned to look at me with an evil glee in her eyes.I needed no one to tell me that she planned on exposing me, but what I feared was the time she planned to do that.The music stopped playing and the Luna Queen grabbed a glass of wine, hitting a spoon against it.Everyone stopped what they were chattering about and focused on her.The Luna Queen smiled so happily, making my heart bleed. Whenever I saw her on that podium, I would always be reminded of the sadness on my mother's face before she died. That should have been my mother's throne, that should have been her place.If Luna Jasmine hadn't killed my mother back then, perhaps everything would have still been right. I wouldn't have to be intimidated by her mannerless daughter."It is time for the cutting of the cake and the announcement of a new age!" She announced and a loud ovat

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   The birthday ceremony

    VALERIE I walked into the large grand hall alongside Bianca, holding my head up high. A gasp slipped out of my lips the moment I stepped into the hall. It gave a charm that noroom had ever given. The ballroom stretched wide, its polished marble floor gleaming under the light of massive crystal chandeliers. Ornate gold-trimmed walls rose to meet a vaulted ceiling painted with delicate frescoes, while tall arched windows let moonlight spill across the room. Velvet drapes framed the windows, and soft classical music floated through the air, echoing the elegance of the atmosphere."Bianca, why does this place look so lovely?" I whispered, my eyes gleaming.She chuckled and nudged me playfully, a smile on her face."This is the grand hall of the Blood Moon Pack where every royal ceremony and gathering is held. Perhaps in the future, you and the Lycan kings will get married in this hall," she muttered and the smile on my face dropped."What?" I gasped.Her brows raised in confusion and
