Chapter 6

Remilia's POV.

My heart pounded as I sprinted through the forest, my feet pounding against the damp earth. The moon cast shadows, brightening the path for my frantic escape, which I was immensely grateful for.

I had to put as much distance between herself and Nightborne Pack's territory as possible.

The memory of Eryndor's snarling face still haunted me. His eyes, once filled with warmth and admiration, now burned with hatred and ambition. How could I have been so foolish not to notice his annoying attitude? I always knew he was jealous but never imagined that he was going to take it this far.

It wasn't my fault in any way that I was a genius. I had tried to numb my intelligence so that it didn't rub off wrongly on him, but guess who ended up with the shorter end of the stick? Me.

I shuddered internally recalling the night he had taken control, ousting me as alpha. The pain was too much for me to handle but I guess I was foolish enough not to understand.

  • Nightsword: Love And Ashes    Chapter 8

    8. Raul's POV. "Cat got your tongue now?" I asked with a playful smile that didn't capture the essence of what I was feeling. I was more than angry that this woman was able to elicit some weird emotions going on inside of me which I couldn't even begin to understand. It was strange that I would feel so safe around a stranger when I had many reasons not to. I could feel my wolf howling at the back of my head with various reasons yet coming to no conclusion. She was fierce. I could see that in her, even though she was trying to hide by bunching her shoulders and assuming a fetal position. "I'm sorry for budging in I will just leave now." She refused to look at me. Her eyes were the warmest that I had ever seen. It had a way of piercing through my impermeable front, giving me an assurance that she was quite different from the rest even though I didn't even know what I was talking about. It had become one of those things that I got used to, especially from women's admiration "Sto

  • Nightsword: Love And Ashes    Chapter 7.

    7. Remilia's POV. I blinked twice just as soon as I opened my eyes, trying to adjust my eyes to the darkness that had already covered the whole arena. This was something that I would not be able to deal with if I were not careful enough, but most importantly, I was very concerned about my next move. My heart was pounding at a dangerous rate, threatening to burst out of my chest if I was not careful enough. Had Eryndor found me? Had he decided to lock me in here forever so that I would never have a chance at survival or escape? I swung my legs to the ground, calculating my next move, calm enough not to make a stupid move unless I was sure. A little chuckle startled me, causing me to jump. My hand jumped to my chest, slightly leaning closer, searching for an answer that would suffice. "I believe that you already have what it takes. How are you feeling now?" The voice of a stranger percolated the air, giving me every ounce of warmth that I could ever need. This was insanely

  • Nightsword: Love And Ashes    Chapter 5: Escape Plan

    Remilia's POV. Eryndor stood before the cell, smiling at me with a glint of contempt in his eyes. He smiled gingerly, shaking his head and sighing. “Why did you choose this?” He asked. “I offered you friendship but you spat in my face,” he sighed.“Rather the world burns down around me than I accept to be friends with one who would betray his own people, are you not even ashamed of one bit of yourself?” I demanded from him. I felt betrayed but it wasn't because he turned against me, I already sensed that a long time ago. I felt betrayed because I thought he was at least a man of character but as it would turn out, he was just like any other greedy bastard! I felt glad at the moment though that I didn't allow my children to grow up in his presence. They would have been corrupted by these habits of self centeredness and greed. I still glared at him as he began to speak. “Misery, misery, misery, that is all you have chosen for yourself, an eternity of suffering. I offered you a chance

  • Nightsword: Love And Ashes    Chapter 4: Truth Will Come Out.

    Remilia's POV.I continued my statement despite the murmurs, I wasn't going to give in to his manipulation, although I knew there was a little I could do to change their minds. But I know one day, the truth will out.“Eryndor finalized things with the rogue and received payment in a form I don’t know about. When he was about to leave the scene, I confronted him and he attacked me after threats didn’t work. In defense of myself, I slashed at him with my knife and injured him. He called for the guards and got me arrested even though he was the one who attacked me first. This is my testimony, Council.”Immediately I was done, the room erupted in chaos. Shouts and yells as the Council members tried to talk over themselves and make their point known. As they argued, my eyes found Eryndor across the room and a slow smirk spread across his face. I forced my lips to mimic the motion even though it hurt. After what seemed like ages, Marcus’ hand shot out and grabbed a gavel that had gone unno

  • Nightsword: Love And Ashes    Chapter 3: The Hearing

    Remilia's POVIt was out of the question. I couldn’t be seen with an ancient mythical weapon. I doubted it would help whatever case Eryndor brought before the Council. I was still contemplating my escape when approaching footsteps had me stiffening and moving away from the bars. Two guards conversed in low voices outside my cell and moments later, the same guard who had thrown me in appeared in front of the bars. I raised my head, shooting him a tear-streaked glare. He inserted a key into the lock and I shot up. “What’s happening?”, I demanded as the guards entered the cell and roughly pulled me to my feet. “Where are you taking me?”I let them pull me out of the cell with minimal resistance. “The Council had demanded your presence in the Alpha’s Hall”, one of them informed me gruffly.“What”, NightSword pulsed in my mind. “What?”, I asked loudly, trying to dig in my heels now. The guards simply pulled me harder and my feet slid against the ground uselessly. “That’s not possible! Th
