~Elara's Pov~

It pained me to see him hurt, the way he dodged the attack and tried to protect me at the least of his safety…..every move, every attack lodged at him was like a saw painfully striking through my heart.

If he had given me the least hope that he was still there, the Damina I had fallen in love with, Damina that showed me the way when I thought there wasn't the way. If he had received my hand the same way he did when my parent left me…maybe I wouldn't have restrained from receiving his hands as well.

I hated that it broke me this much after rejecting him to the door extent of acting weak in Julian’s presence.

I wished he wouldn't dare to raise the topic I would love not to cross paths with him.

“Elara!!.....are you okay? I have been asking you the same questions since the moment we entered…..” Sabrina’s tense voice brought me out of my daze. I have been drifting to my thoughts since we got in that I couldn't give him the reaction she wanted.

“Sorry…..! I think I need

    Damien's POV~I stared at her as she said that to me. I didn't know the exact words to say, or what to say, so instead, I just looked at her. The light from the streetlamp shone on her face, revealing the wetness that clung to her cheeks, and she looked so small. She looked pale, fragile and weak. As though one little nudge was capable of breaking her from where she stood, and down.I longed to touch her arms, to take her by the hand, even if it was to feel the warmth that was radiating from this woman, just to remind myself that she was still alive and present. As soon as I took a step forward, she shook as though my touch would burn her.“Elara…” I was barely audible.I fell to one knee in front of her, my flesh got torn from the gravel beneath me, though I paid no attention to it. “Sorry,” I said with my entire being. “I never wanted this for us. I never wanted it to be like this.”She didn’t even blink at me. Her gaze shifted from mine, looking distant. “Take me back to my parents

    Elara's POVHe blinked at my words, for a second, as he looked like though he was pondering whether he should answer or ignore me. And then his mouth opened, and shut, and after a long pause, he said, “I can't put it to words.”My heart was pounding in my ears, and with him looking back at me, I could only stare. “Then do it,” I said as my voice died midway through.He didn’t speak. He remained as silent as the car was. I couldn't wait any longer as it felt stuffy, so I reached for the door handle before I had even processed what I was doing, and I walked out into the cold night.I walked a short distance away, close enough that I could still hear the engine gently purring from within. As I walked, I could hear the sound of my boots crunching against the gravel as every knot that held me within came loose.What was going on? Was this some sick game he was playing? Hell no, Damien was not the type to joke around like this. But it felt like… it wasn't real.I circled my arms around my

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Hundred and Ninety One

    Elara's POV~I wouldn't have dared to leave my father alone. Every step out of that room felt like I was leaving the very last chance I had to see him alive. It was suffocating in there. It felt as though the temperature in the room had just turned colder. And each time someone walked through the door, the air got worse as it got thicker with the breaths of broken hearts or despair, and the scent of medicine.When Damien came out to follow me, he didn't say anything. The wind had cut through my hair as we got to his car. He sat in there, next to me, as I felt my chest tighten for some reason.The doors closed around us, the rest of the world shut out, and all that was left was the noise being made by the seat when we sat. I turned to face the window, where I could no longer make out even the shape of a tree as we sped by, and my brain howled in torment.“…My first life…” I began, my words were softer than I meant, but it was filled with pain. “When I had lost my parents, it felt as if

    Elara's POVMy breath got stuck in my throat. The shape under the bed… blinked. And then slowly, its body started to crawl out. The only thing I saw at first was a paw, peeking out from the leg of one of the chairs and shaking against the wooden floor. And then, I saw another. And as it moved, the smell got stronger. And when it came out into full sight, I saw the creature. Its gaze met mine. It was a wolf.A small, young wolf.But something about its eyes was off. Its eyes looked cloudy. The wolf let out a low rumbling growl, and even that seemed muted, soundless as a whisper that had forgotten how to shout. Saliva or something blacker was hanging from the corners of its mouth and pooling on the floor beneath it. I stumbled backward, with one of my hands placed on my chest. What in the name of the moon?The healers all turned to face me, their heads snapping up. “What’s wrong, my lady?” one wolf asked, but before I could reply, the wolf crouched and fell with a loud thud.I froze.

    Elara's POV~Father’s chest rose and fell weakly as his face turned pale enough to reveal the blue veins beneath. “His pulse is fading!” one of the healers barked as she brought her hands to his chest and furrowed her brow.A second healer was bent over a low table, stacked with serums and small glass jars. “We need heart root, fresh and not dried ones.”“That’s rare,” the first muttered. “Rare or no,” snapped the second, “without it, he'll be gone by nightfall.” I clutched my mother's arm as she wept into her hands. Her shoulders were jerking so hard I could feel it in my bones. “Mother—”Tears streaked down her cheeks, and she shook her head. “They said he’s been poisoned. Elara, they told me it's already inside his heart.”“Poison? How? How could this happen? Who—”“Not for days!” she shouted, her voice matching my uncertainty. “He hasn’t received any guests. No one’s been near him,” she cried as her fingers knotted together. “I would have known—”A gray-haired elder came walking i

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Hundred and Eighty Eight

    Damien's POV~As soon as I had dropped Elara off at her parents, there wasn't a single moment left to be wasted. My fingers wrapped around the steering wheel as I yanked my phone from my pocket and quickly messaged Caspian.Meet me here.I had sent him the directions and location of where the vultures lay scattered on the pavement. As I drove fast with my foot pressed harder on the gas.Nothing had changed since I got there.The dead vultures remained where they were. I pulled over to the side of the road and got out cautiously. The gravel crunched under my boots as I moved forward on them.Kneeling, I examined the closest one. Its eyes were plucked out, and its feathers were burnt. There were no signs of visible wounds and no sign of poisoning, but the air, something about this place felt wrong. “What’s going on?” the question echoed in my ears as I hadn't felt this much fear in years.The sound of a car humming in the background awoke me from my reverie. Just then, I looked up to my
