… Elena
I had a restless night. I couldn't help but think about the situation in Willow Creek and the people who were suffering from the disease. I made a decision that I had to go back and help.
I woke up early and knew exactly what I needed to do. I had made a decision that I knew would greatly impact my life and I was eager to see it through. I quickly got dressed and made my way to the head maid's room, my heart beating with a hint of nervousness.
As I walked down the halls of the palace, I couldn't help but think about what I was about to do. The halls were filled with people discussing in groups.
"The news isn't out yet" , she thought.
I finally reached the head maid's room and took a deep breath before knocking on the door. The door creaked open and the head maid appeared, her eyes sleepy but with a hint of surprise as she saw me so early in
… Elena POV...As I sat beside Rowland's bed, watching him toss and turn in feverish sleep, I couldn't help but feel helpless. The doctors had done all they could, but his condition was only worsening by the hour. I knew I had to do something to save him.As I walked into my room, I went straight to my bookshelf and pulled out the book of dark magic. I sat down on my bed, opened the book, and started searching for a spell that could cure Rowland.Hours passed as I read through page after page of spells, incantations, and rituals. Some of them were dangerous, some of them were useless, but I didn't stop until I found what I was looking for.It was a spell for healing, a spell that promised to cure even the most deadly of diseases. I was skeptical at first, but as I read through the incantation, I felt a strange power within me. I knew that this was the spell I was lo
... Selena pov…As I walked into Rowland's room, I was filled with a mix of emotions. Seeing him lying there, weakened by the disease that had been spreading through our pack, made my heart ache. I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt for not being there for him when he needed me most.When I saw Freya standing by his bedside, I felt anger bubble up inside me. Why was she here, of all people? I walked up to her, my eyes narrowed in suspicion. "What are you doing here?" I spat, "Get out."Freya simply looked at me, unruffled by my hostility, and stepped aside. I approached Rowland, and as I looked at him, I realized that his condition was far worse than I had thought. He was barely conscious, and his breathing was labored. I could see the fear and desperation in his eyes, and I felt a sudden urge of pity as I looked at him.I can still se
… Selena POV…But the members were not happy with this arrangement and it showed on their face."Where is the alpha?" one of the council members asked me, his tone sharp.I met his gaze coolly, "He is busy and has left me in charge."The council members frowned, murmuring amongst themselves. "Get the alpha," another member demanded.I scowled at them, anger boiling inside of me. I was tired of the constant disrespect and doubt I faced as a female leader in a male-dominated pack. But I kept my cool and replied, "The alpha trusts me to handle this matter. I am perfectly capable of leading this council."The council members grumbled, but I stood my ground. I was determined to prove my worth and earn the respect of the pack.I sat at the co
I reclined on my luxurious bed, I called out to my maid, "Maria, come here."Maria promptly entered my room and asked, "What can I do for you, my lady?""Go to the designer's store and get me the most beautiful dress they have," I commanded.Maria bowed and left, promising to return soon with the dress.Hours later, I heard a soft knock on my door and Maria entered, holding a beautifully wrapped package. I tore open the paper to reveal three stunning dresses. Each one was more gorgeous than the last, each made from the finest silk and adorned with shimmering gems.The first was a floor-length gown in a rich emerald green, with a fitted bodice and full skirt that would twirl beautifully as I danced. The second was a ball gown in a deep sapphire blue, with a sweetheart neckline and a skirt that was covered in delicate beading. And the third was a straple
… Selena POV…I groggily opened my eyes, confused about where I was. Everything was hazy, and my head felt heavy. My memory of the previous night was patchy, but I remembered the events that led up to me being in this room. I was at a show, where I was the center of attention, and I had drunk too much wine.The room was dark, with only a small lamp illuminating the space. The curtains were drawn shut, blocking out any light from outside. I tried to sit up, but my head spun, and I lay back down again. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to steady myself.I remembered seeing miss Caroline at the show, and she had said something that still made me angry. She had accused me of trying to seduce beta Josh, and I had wanted to confront her. But I was too drunk to remember what had happened next.A knock at the door brought me back to reality. "Miss Luna,
… Rowland pov…I walked into my office, ready for a briefing on the current state of the pack. I sat down at my desk and motioned for Thomas, my guard, to come forward."Thomas, what's the report on the pack?" I asked, my brow furrowed with concern."Unfortunately, things are not looking good, sir," Thomas replied solemnly. "The plague that's been spreading through the pack is getting worse. We've tried everything we can to contain it, but it's just getting worse."I frowned, the weight of the situation settling heavily on my shoulders. "And what about the other packs? Have they reached out to offer any help?"Thomas shook his head. "I'm afraid not. In fact, all the other packs have cut all connections with us because of the disease. They don't want to risk getting infected."I rubbed my temples, trying to come up wit
… Beta josh…When the alpha finally arrived, I stood up, ready to make my case. I explained the situation and how the plague had affected our pack.I implored him to consider the greater good and to lend us their support. But, just like the first alpha, this one was unyielding. He cited the safety and security of his own pack as his top priority and refused to offer any assistance.I left that palace, feeling increasingly hopeless. As I traveled to the next pack, the answer was always the same. No pack was willing to lend a hand, they all stood firm in their decision to protect their own. I was running out of options, and the weight on my chest grew heavier with each rejection.As I entered the pack's main hall, I couldn't help but feel defeated. My mission to seek assistance from other packs had been a failure. I approached Rowland, our Alpha, and bega
… Elena POV…I eagerly opened its pages. As I flipped through the pages, I saw countless diagrams and illustrations of mythical creatures, spells, and potions.I searched through the pages, searching for any hint of a cure for the sickness that plagued my village. The illustrations were detailed, but the writing was cryptic and difficult to decipher.As I reached the end of the book, I came upon a page unlike any other. It was an intricate drawing of a carved stone with strange designs etched into its surface. I gazed upon the picture, trying to make sense of its meaning.I frowned as I realized that I couldn't decipher the symbols, no matter how hard I tried. I sighed in frustration and was about to close the book when a faint glow caught my eye. I looked back at the page, and the carved stone seemed to pulse with a soft light.Intrigued, I reac
