Third POV

Three days later, Carlos was still in his pack.

He had gotten Nora’s gift as Justin had suggested but was trying to make sure things were running smoothly in his pack before he returned to the Lycan Kingdom.

He had just finished a brief meeting with the elders when Justin rushed in. With the look on his face,he didn't need anyone to tell him that all was not well and immediately he began to search his face for answers.

“What's going on?” Carlos asked, his gaze not leaving him even for a second.

“It's been three days since they last saw Nora.” He blurted out and immediately, Carlos dropped the scroll he was holding.

With his head running haywire with different ideas all at once, he dashed out of the courtroom only to run back in as he tried to get a grip of himself.

Meanwhile, back at the Lycan Kingdom, there was unrest as everyone was skeptical and worried about her sudden disappearance.

    Karen's POVImmediately I left Carlos' side, I stormed towards where I had hid Nora, all the while seething with anger as I thought of what to do with him.Nora wasn't my only target, I had to deal with him too but first, Nora has to go. Arriving at the dilapidated building, I was about to walk straight in to meet with Nora when Vina blocked my path. Fiddling with her fingers, she kept darting her eyes around like a little kid that had been caught in a crime red handed. “What do you want?” I asked with an irritated tone. The moment I discovered that we were mates, I was furious. I have never thought of once that we would have a thing together not to talk of being mates. The more I thought of it, the more furious I became. “Uhm… I mean… it's about…” “Are you going to keep stuttering all day? If you have nothing to say to me, you should step aside as I have more important stuff to handle.” I snarle

  • Nora: Rejected Lost Princess    Still Not Found

    Carlos POVNora's sudden disappearance didn't go well with me.Each time I thought about me, my head would start making up scenarios which always threw me off balance. “Karen keeps insisting she went on a trip, if that is the case she should be back by now.” I muttered, clenching and unclenching my fists as I thought of it. To make matters worse, there was no one in the palace who had the slightest hint of when she left the pack. “If only Vina was, she must have an idea where she is but she is nowhere to be found.” I muttered, still racking my head in a bid to come up with the slightest idea. Frustrated, I let out a low sigh and then proceeded to comfort George and her parents who were mourning like she was already dead. Determined to find Nora and bring her home, I spoke with a loud and firm voice, “I'm going to bring Nora home, all you have to do is to believe me, nothing else.” I was speaking to her parents and George in the courtroom . With a low voice, George said, “We have

    Karen's POVDammit! “What is it my lord?!” Beta Anderson asked and immediately I nodded towards the bushel where Carlos was hiding. To him, he thought he had securely hidden himself from me when in the real sense I could see him clearly. “Over there, we have a visitor.” I whispered, nodding my head slowly towards Carlos in a stylish way. “Who is he, my lord?” “Someone who is interested in me.” I tugged my hair, as I sent my teeth into my lips. As it seems, if I permitted Carlos to have his way, he was going to cause a nuisance and I'm not ready for that.Something must be done to keep him on his toes, otherwise, all of my plans would go into naught, his persistence wasn't something to be joked with. Tapping my foot against the ground, I had my hands folded behind me with my gaze fixated solely in his direction. “What should I do with him, my lord? I came with a potion just in case.” “How lethal is it?” I asked, casting him a glance before proceeding to bury my head, still tap

Standing before me was Karen and so I decided to solicit help from him but he ignored me like I never existed. He didn't stop there, he walked out on me despite my pleas for help and at this point, I couldn't help but wonder what this was all about. For a while, I didn't make a sound, nor a move.I just sat there, staring into space as I replayed the scene that had happened in my head. With the little drama I had seen, no doubt, Karen was the one who had held me hostage otherwise, he would have untied me.He and Vina were a team and hence made me wonder when they became so close, not to talk of ganging up against me. Tied up, I couldn't move my body properly. Aching all over, I tried to adjust only for me to fall on my face and at once Vina let out a huff.Ignoring her attitude, I decided

    Carlos’ POVGrabbing my head, I managed to pull myself to my feet, the effect of the strong substance which I had inhaled, slowly weaning off. “Karen!” I called, stumbling back and forth, trying to maintain my stance. This uneasy movement continued for a while before I could finally stand on my feet and with my hands grasping my waist, I let out a loud howl as anger mixed with frustration racked through me. My failure in getting Karen after all my boast was making me go insane. The more I thought about it, the more frequently I clenched and unclenched my fists as anger raked through me. Karen had outwitted me, I shouldn’t have fallen for his cheap tricks. “What am I going to do now?” I pondered with my hands across my chest as I paced about in a futile attempt to keep still. Still frustrated, I slide through a tree to the ground, pulling my legs to my chin. With my gaze fixed in the space in front of me,

    Karen's POVWith my hands folded behind me, I had my gaze out of the window as I awaited the results of the mission. At the end of my discussion with Beta Anderson, I was uncomfortable as I kept thinking about Carlos and his persistent nature. Even though we had managed to shut down his body system back there at the woods, that wasn't a guarantee that he wouldn't come at me again. “He is smart, I admit that. Just a little encounter with me, he was able to detect what I’m up to.” Chuckling, I pushed my hand into my hair and then tugged on it for a while. Frowning really hard now, I began to clench and unclench my fists as anger racked through my veins. Carlos was a thorn in my flesh and the earlier I pulled him out the more better for me. Impatient from waiting for the assailants, I stepped out of my room only to see them walking up to me with a neutral look on their faces. Now in front of me, they all did a curt now while I looked on. All I needed was the results of the operati

    Nora’s POV Everything Karen had said to me sounded foreign that I couldn't even believe a bit of it. It was like he was reading from a script for a movie and the more he fed me with the lines he had to offer, the more doubtful I became.Pursing my lips, I feigned like I was listening to him when in the real sense I wasn't, rather I was waiting for just one word so I will be able to attack him from there. Suddenly, I remembered Vina’s words about him being dangerous and not to be trusted but here he was painting someone else in the same light.“What about Vina?” I cut in, sending his words back to his throat. For a moment, he didn't say a thing. He went mute as he darted his eyes around only to focus it on me when he realized I was watching. “She is scared of you. If the both of you are trying to help me then you have to be a team and not the other way around.” I paused to allow the words to sink in. “There is something you aren't telling me and I'm curious to find out what it is

The conversation we just had was a clear testament that I haven’t even begun yet as Nora was a hard nut to crack. Convincing her that I was doing this for her own good was a difficult thing to do but I was determined to do so otherwise, my plans would be thwarted. Looking behind my shoulders, I kept staring at the closed door, contemplating my next line of actions. After what seemed like forever, I decided to go back in and try convincing her again but I felt that was going to make her doubt me even more. With heavy footsteps, I made my way towards the exit of the building only to push open the door of the second room where Vina lay. With my face scrunched up in disgust, I cranked my head to the side and with my hands crossed on my chest, I

    THIRD POVNora walked away from them, her mind spinning with the sorceress's demand. Give herself up to save her children? The choice seemed both impossible and inevitable. She wandered through the trees, needing space to breathe, and to think.She found a fallen log a short distance from the cave entrance and sank down onto it. The forest around her was very quiet, as if even the birds and insects sensed the dark magic nearby. Her hands trembled as she pressed them against her face, trying to hold back tears."They're discussing whether your life is worth saving the twins," a soft voice said from behind her.Nora looked up to find Elara standing there, her face partially shadowed by the trees."Elara," Nora said, quickly wiping her eyes. "I didn't hear you approach.""I move quietly," Elara replied with a slight smile. "It's a useful skill for a lady's maid."Nora nodded absently, her thoughts still with her children. "

"The sorceress has powerful magic, but I believe we can track her.""How?" Griffin pushed off from the wall, suddenly interested."With blood," the elder replied simply. He turned to Carlos. "Alpha, although I don't possess sorcerer abilities myself, my bloodline carries ancient knowledge. And your blood will be the compass.""Whatever it takes to get my children back." "I can perform the tracking spell. I've done similar workings before," Katherine offered. "It's dangerous," Elder Silvarum warned. "The sorceress will have safeguards.""I don't care," Katherine replied dismissively. "Those are my niece's cubs."Carlos rolled up his sleeve and extended his arm. "Take what you need."Katherine glanced at Elder Silvarum, who nodded an

    THIRD POV Two hours later, they gathered in the twins' bedroom. Nora had laid out their favorite possessions: Zack's toy sword, Zoe's stuffed wolf, their hair brushes still containing strands of dark hair. Her hands trembled as she arranged the items in the circle Kathryn had drawn on the floor."This should be enough," Kathryn said, kneeling beside the circle. She looked exhausted, dark circles prominent beneath her eyes. "But I need to warn you all. My powers have limits. Especially against someone like the sorceress.""Just try," Nora whispered.Griffin stood back near the doorway, watching the proceedings with a heavy heart. He knew better than anyone what the sorceress was capable of. The years he'd spent in her thrall had shown him the depths of her cruelty, and her power.Kathryn began to chant, her hands moving in intricate patterns above the circle. The air in the room grew heavy with magic, pressing against their skin like

    THIRD PovNora fought, earnestly, not knowing which powers controlled her. Was this her hidden heritage or something new? As the fight became even more fierce, she struggled to keep watch over the kids.Not until, she smelled them and the danger around. Nora looked up sharply, her gaze fixed on two Ancients emerging, dragging small, struggling forms between them. Her blood ran cold as she recognized Zack and Zoe, their faces pale with terror as they fought against their captors' grip."Mom! Dad!" Zack shouted, his voice filled with fear."Let them go!" Nora screamed, light flaring around so fiercely that several nearby wolves whimpered and backed away. How dare these people touch her babies!As her anger filled the air, Nora heard the evil laughter of the sorceress. "Now, that's interesting. You've grown stronger than I anticipated. Perhaps those meddling fools didn't suppress your power as thoroughly as they thought."

    Griffin Her questions were becoming annoying. I wished I could just ignore it. That perhaps you hope to earn her gratitude. Her affection." Kathryn's voice was gentle but firm. "If so, you should know it's unlikely. She loves Carlos, whatever problems they may have." "I'm not a fool," I snapped, then immediately regretted my tone. "I know she loves him. I'm not doing this to win her over." "Then why?" I stared at the floor, struggling to articulate what drove me. "Because I failed her once before. I won't make that mistake again." Kathryn seemed satisfied with this answer. "Very well. I'll need time to prepare properly." I rose to leave, but paused at the door. "Kathryn... thank you." She shook her head. "Don't thank me yet. This may kill you more quickly than the sorceress's curse. Plus, I'm not assuring you that it is going to work." "At least it will be my choice," I said quietly. "For once." As I left the room, I felt the hunger gnawing at me again, stronger

    GRIFFIN POVI felt it the moment it happened—a pulse of energy so distinct it nearly knocked me off my feet. I steadied myself against a tree, drawing in a sharp breath as recognition dawned.Nora had connected with her wolf.After all these years, after everything that had happened. She had found Reika again. Although it was a good thing, the implications were staggering—and terrifying. Those hungry powerful beings probably felt it too and their quest for Nora's blood would intensify. "Damn it," I muttered, pushing away from the tree and striding toward the pack house. Elder Silvarum needed to know immediately. Carlos too, though I doubted he'd take the news well.I'd barely made it halfway across the grounds when the first wave of pain hit. It started as a burning in my chest, then spread outward like wildfire through my veins. I stumbled, falling to my knees as my vision blurred."Griffin."The voice echoed in my mind, sickeningly familiar. The sorceress. My mistress. My curse."

    NORA POVThe next one week flew by very peacefully. More peaceful than I ever expected. "Focus, Nora," Kathryn instructed, circling me as I struggled to maintain the small flame hovering above my palm. "You're letting your wolf nature interfere again."I gritted my teeth. "I don't have a wolf nature. That's the problem."Kathryn exchanged a glance with Elara, that same look they always shared when they thought I wasn't paying attention. It was infuriating."Your lycan blood is still part of you," she said carefully. "Even if you do not have a wolf. She looked down, busying herself with arranging crystals on the floor around me. I'd touched a nerve, I was sure of it."Whatever the case," Kathryn continued smoothly, "you need to separate your magical energy from your lycan energy. They conflict with each other."I'd been trying for days without success. The moment I called forth fire or water, I felt a resistance within me, as if something was fighting against the magic. My head would

My kids hugged me, excited to finally have me back. After a while, Carlos came to sit beside me. "Nora!" His hands were on me instantly, checking for wounds that were no longer there. "Thank the Moon Goddess. You're awake."My head spun as memories flooded back —the attack in the forest, the children screaming, claws tearing into my flesh. I should be dead. By all rights, I should be dead.Carlos handed me a glass of cold water. "You need this." As I gulped the cool liquid, my eyes caught sight of something across the room a small form lying motionless on the floor, surrounded by my aunt. Blood pooled beneath her.The mute girl. "What happened?" I demanded, pushing the glass away. "Why is she bleeding?"Carlos followed my gaze, his expression grim. "She saved you. Took your wounds somehow."I

    CARLOS POVMy heart stopped as I burst into the clearing. The scene before me was worse than anything I'd imagined.Nora lay in a growing pool of blood, surrounded by seven hooded figures. Their forms seemed to waver between solid and smoke, power radiating off them in waves that made my wolf recoil. Ancient beings. Powerful. Deadly."Get away from her!" I roared, my voice breaking with desperation.One of them turned slowly, revealing a face that wasn't quite human— eagyes too large, skin too pale. When it smiled, its teeth were needle-sharp."The mate arrives," it said, voice like breaking glass. "Just in time to watch her die."Rage exploded through me. I didn't care if they could kill me with a thought. I wouldn't let Nora die while I stood by. I charged forward, shifting mid-stride, claws extending as I leapt toward the nearest figure.I was still trying to think about my next move. I was confused about everything, and what step to take forward. But I was certain about one thing.
