It's just an assumption

DAMON POV

“Do you want me to answer that question? We've been friends for fourteen years, and I thought you knew me well enough to doubt me at times like this. My family allegiance and loyalty has been for you alone.”

A derisive snort escaped me. “I knew the royal council well enough until they started to plan behind me, trying to dethrone me.” I shrugged. “I am not saying you are part of them, but I don't want to doubt it. Friends can betray friends.”

It was Seth’s turn to snort, “That's a terrible assumption, Damon Valerius.” He stood to his feet and came towards the desk. He took my empty cup of coffee and placed it on the tray alongside his.

“I am not such a horrible friend, and if at all I desire to betray or even be against you, I should have done so fourteen years earlier, but not now that we’ve achieved a lot together.” Seth picked up the tray.

He began to walk to the door and stopped briefly. Then, curiously, he turned to me.

“What about her?”

“Who?”

“Lysara–”

    CELESTE POVMy eyelashes fluttered against my cheeks as I tried to open my eyes. It hurt. It felt like glue had been used on both eyes and they were extremely heavy. That wasn't the only thing that hurt. My head, too, and every part of my body like I was run over by a tractor until the construction worker was satisfied that he had flattened me enough. This event felt far worse than when I had woken up for the first time in this pack house. At least, my only problem back then was because I couldn’t move my body entirely.That wasn't the worst, either. It was the fact that I could recall all that happened in the last few hours.How I had tried to kill myself and begged Hanna not to let them save me. But here I was, with a tube stuck in my body.I opened my eyes eventually, wincing as the bright light flashed into them. I was in my room, from the blue curtains that rustled in the wind and the vanity table.It was nighttime as well. I could tell from the light coming from the moon.I shou

    CELESTE POVI came awake with a jolt, my body drenched. It felt like a bucket filled with water had been tipped over my head.I was in a nightmare. It wasn't a new occurrence for me. It had been happening ever since my father died.I guessed it was his death that triggered it. However, it stopped, and now it was back. Even though I could barely recall what happened in it, the familiar feeling of fear that often clenched around my heart and the dread like something awful was about to happen. Still, I didn't know exactly what it was since I barely knew what I had dreamt about. But I was feeling it now.Pushing a hand through my disheveled, wet hair, I looked around the room to see where I was.I was still in my room. And in my dress, thankfully. However, Damon was long done.My attention shifted to the door as a knock sounded on it. Hanna stepped into the room.She stood by the door, her eyes filled with uncertainty as they locked on mine.I wanted to ask her what the matter was as she

    CELESTE POVAfter much pleading, Hanna finally decided to give me the tour I had pleaded for. And here I was getting ready.I had only changed the outfit I was wearing since the previous had been stained. I believed the pressure I had exerted by walking to her side, pulling her up and returning back to the bed to sit had made the injury open up again.Hanna was kind enough to help me clean it and dress it up. Better than what Sabrina had done. Sabrina hadn't even done nothing. I didn't think she had administered any drugs to me.It wasn't like it was forbidden for supernatural beings to take drugs. In fact, it was encourage because sometimes your natural healing might be delayed or even nonexistence. Instead of waiting for such, it was best to go through the normal way.“She preparing some herbs to be given to you.” Hanna said.It seemed I had spoken my thoughts aloud.“Herbs?” I questioned.Hanna nodded. She stopped walk, only to turn around, her eyes squinting in the afternoon sun l

    CELESTE POVWhen we entered the room, Sabrina let me go. I looked around to see that a change had been made.About three white candles were lit on a table in the room’s center. Although a coffee table had been present, it wasn't this. Also, no candles had been in the room until now.I furrowed my brows, turning to Sabrina, but suddenly grew dizzy. I stumbled slightly, reaching for the vanity table as I approached it to steady myself.“What is happening?” I asked, searching around the room amidst the haze in my mind to find her. But I couldn't see her anywhere. She was just behind me when we stepped into the room. Where the hell did she go?!“Sabrina?” I called. “Where did you go and what's going on?”I tried to straighten but that got even far worse as a sharp pain pierced through me. I gasped, doubling over.“Sabrina,” once again, I called.But no answer.The pain intensified. It wasn't like anything I had ever felt before. Not even when I was branded like a criminal and humiliated f

    CELESTE POVYou could say I went through hell and returned. I believe I saw my parents, who sent me back, telling me it wasn't my time to be with them yet.I jolted awake, sweat coating my forehead. With wide eyes, I looked around the darkened room. I placed a hand on my palpitating heart and looked towards the opened door.Sabrina.The candles.My eyes moved away from the opened door to the table. But there wasn't any table in the room nor the candles that had been on it. Also, I didn't think I was in my room because the curtains seemed entirely different!I had a blue curtain with floral prints on it, but the ones I was staring at were blood red.Not only were the curtains the wrong color, but the window was in the wrong direction, too, and the bed—no, it wasn't mine.I jumped down from the bed, my head spinning at the abruptness.Everything in the room was dark and eerily cold. There wasn't an iota of warmth, yet I felt alive because I could perceive a familiar smell.Damon.“You'r

    DAMON POV“So, I am here. What's new?” Seth announced his presence and casually stepped into the room after testing the barrier on the door.I rolled my eyes. It was not like the barrier would work on him. He was the only one in the whole pack house I trusted my life with, even as I didn't trust anyone with it.He had been only allowed access so he could reach me anytime I was in danger. As for Celeste, I wasn't sure she'd be able to enter the room earlier when I contemplated bringing her in here, but she had. I wondered if it was because I had her with me, hence the reason, or if something else was involved.She hadn't been able to leave either until I told her to. I made a mental note to visit the head witch, Brianna, later to question her about it.“I am here. What do I need to do? Your voice sounded urgent, and I thought you were in danger,” Seth pointed out. He looked around the room before his gaze locked on mine, “But I could barely see any form of danger here except you are th

    DAMON POVSabrina sauntered into the room like she owned it, while Seth walked in behind her.She stopped, standing in the middle, and Seth walked towards me.“Alpha,” she said, giving me that little bow she always did. “The beta said you want to meet with me.”I nodded, pointing towards one of the chairs for her to sit. We were in the elder's chamber. There was a small room in it, which made it possible to ask questions. Also, it was to ensure privacy.Sabrina looked at the chair before her gaze wandered to me. She shook her head. “I'll prefer to stand, Alpha.”I raised a brow at her.“It'll be rude for me to be seated while the alpha and beta are on their feet.” She pointed out.Seth snickered. “It's not a trap, Sabrina. You should sit.”Sabrina glared at him, smiling sheepishly as she noticed my eyes were on her. She was close to Seth.They were friends.“I want you to sit,” I murmured.Sabrina hesitated briefly, and I thought she would argue with me again, but instead she began to

    CELESTE POVDamon.I had left him in his room a few minutes ago. He wasn't in my room when I returned. There was no way he could have been because he didn't follow me, and I had made sure to shut the door before going into the bathroom.Yet, here he was, standing casually leaning on the door frame, wearing nothing.Fuck. He was naked.I flushed, looking away from him. What the hell did he want? I had been trying to avoid the strange sensation that erupted inside of me when he was near. I had purposely left his room, even as it was the last thing I desired to do.If I had stayed back there, I couldn't tell what I'd have done. I may embarrass myself. Make a silly confession about what I felt for him.Walking away had been somewhat easy. But it still pissed me off thinking about it. For someone who had claimed to want me, he never made a move to call me back or even follow me.He hadn't said a word until I left.

    CELESTE“You're the fulcrum. The balance is breaking.”I jolted upright, sweat poured down my face, and my heart raced.“She's awake!”I was?My eyes opened, and I blinked rapidly as I tried to adjust them to the bright light in the room. I was in the infirmary.I could tell. The scent of antiseptic and bleach wafted around the room and into my nose, immediately making me wrinkle my nose instinctively. Three beds away from me, I saw some patients and pack members who had been there previously.Sabrina was here. Likewise, Hanna and both were staring. Expectantly.It was as if they were expecting me to say something to them—something only I knew about, although I couldn't tell what it was. But they had that look on.“Are you alright?” Hanna asked me. She came to the tiny space between the bed and the bedside table, sat on the chair there, and gripped my hand.“I was worried. You weren't responding and burning up. I thought something terrible had happened!” She leaned forward, placing th

    CELESTE POVAll day long, my thoughts were filled with the events of last night. I couldn't think of anything else aside from the dream. I had tried to push it to the back of my thoughts, all to no avail. The more I tried to forget about it, the more I seemed to think of it.I desired to know who the goddess in black was. As much as she seemed unfamiliar, I had known her all my life. She had always been a part of me and was only just materialising in her form that night.Yet, I couldn't tell exactly where I knew how or I knew her.“Are you listening?”I was pulled out of my thoughts as I felt a hand on my shoulder. I jolted, my eyes widening and my heart racing.“Hanna!” I exclaimed.“Did I do something wrong?” Hanna pulled back her hand, the expression on her face mirroring mine. She looked surprised, at the same time afraid.“No, no,” I shook my head, wincing.It wasn't just her attention I had gotten, but everyone in the room. We were in a part of the pack house that I had been in

    CELESTE POVOut of the things I wanted to hear her say, that was the last thing on my mind. Also, I resisted the urge to yell ‘I told you so’ while squealing and jumping around because it was obvious she had a thing for him.Even though Seth hadn't shown any interest in his path, I had seen how Hanna looked at him each time. Only a blind person would miss the electrifying attraction between them when they were near.“That's a good thing, right? You're pregnant with Seth’s child and could inform him about it when he returns from the hunt. It shouldn't be that hard. Is it?”“Would he want the baby? What would he think of me? It was only a nightstand and a drunken mistake. I never knew it would result in this. Would he tell me to take the baby off?”I felt Hanna shudder, her eyes widened as they stayed on me. “Please, I don't want the baby to be terminated. He could reject me since I am way lower in ranking than he was, and he wouldn't possibly go for someone like me normally, but I want

    CELESTE POVIt had been a while since I walked around the pack house with Hanna, and I wouldn't lie, I enjoy doing so now.It wasn't due to the brightness of the sun or the way Hanna took her time to explain some of the things I was confused about; it was mostly because I got to spend the whole day without any interruption.From Damon. He was out of the pack house and the only one who mostly disrupted things for me, especially when it came to taking a stroll. Also, the guards he had placed to watch over me—I hadn't seen any of them since today. I wanted to believe they had gone to the hunt, too.He could have easily replaced them. There was a chance he forgot about that, and I was glad I didn't get to have two people breathing down my neck and invading my privacy each time.“Should we sit over there?” Hanna pointed to a bench, underneath a large tree that overlooked a small body of water.I nodded. I was as well exhausted, and my legs were beginning to ache. As much as I enjoyed our

  • REJECTED, Then Becoming King's Adorable Omega   I missed you

    CELESTE POVImmediately Damon left the room, a knock sounded on the door. I ran towards it, believing he was the one who had returned. Maybe to tell me I could go with him and I needed to be careful.That I could do. If I'd get to experience the hunt, I didn't mind staying in the background while others fought. It might be an inconvenience, at least that would keep me away from harm's way, I believe.I opened the door, my eyes lit up and hoping to see Damon outside, but he wasn't the one there.It was Hanna.I couldn't resist emitting a disappointed sigh and Hanna noticed.“I'm sorry,” she whispered, refusing to look me in the eyes.“Um, that wasn't about you,” I said to her. “You just about to be here at the wrong time.”“I'm sorry, I'll leave,” she said.“No, no, don't. I don't mean it that way too,” I grimaced, opening the door wider and making way for her to step in.She hesitated by the doorway, not making a move to come into the room.I didn't force her to. It was her choice. Af

    CELESTE POVThis was my first time experiencing hunting season. In the Blood Moon Pack House, the Omegas were always made to stay behind to do the dirty work of the other members. It wasn't like I minded, though, because I heard stories.Or they were rumours. Regardless, I held them to heart.The hunt was a dangerous adventure. It wasn't just to test your strength alone; it was a survival game. And you wouldn't know if you'd be returning to your loved ones.Some had been lost in the hunt, and some had been killed. I had heard many scary tales and had never once imagined I'd desire to experience it until now.I desired to go on the hunt, to be with Seth, even Damon, although it had been a week since I last saw him. After our encounter in his private training room, it felt like he had intentionally avoided seeing me.I knew he was in the pack house, planning the hunt. As the alpha, he needed to do so. I had even perceived his scent when I passed his office, the hallway, and the training

    DAMONWhy do I have to say that to her? It was unlike me. I had never acted like a caveman before, much less thought about it.I was barely jealous and wouldn't force myself on anyone.But I had done that to Celeste. I had fucking kissed her without her permission. Do I regret it?No!I fucking wanted to do more than that. It wasn't only annoying because I couldn't do what I wanted to do with her, but also the reaction I was still feeling in my body.The tingling sensation in between my thighs, the way my dick strained in my pants wanting to burst my zippers.Fuck.I slammed my fist hard into the bag. I wanted to forget. It was the reason I left before I did something I'd regret.I had lost all my self-control back there, and if I had stayed a second longer, both of us would be panting for air with our clothes on the floor while we explored each other's bodies.I hated this feeling. Why the hell was it coming all day? Was it because of the heat?That could be the reason, but I barely

    CELESTE POVSay no. Say no.The alarm in my head resounded over again.Yet…I wanted him. I wanted him to do as he said. I wanted to hear the vulgar voices all over again, making my pussy tingle.“Tell me, Celeste,” Damon said in the roughest voice I've ever heard him speak.Gripping the back of my neck, he pulled me into him so that our body was pressed together.My heart throbbed, likewise my nipples, and every other part of my body. I believe he could feel my heart pounding.Damon's hand moved up and down the length of my body, my body felt flushed against his, and my knees grew weak. Our lips were near, and I could almost taste his breath.“Is this right?” I whispered, my gaze flitting up to meet him.“What isn't right?” He asked.He was this close to me. Our bodies pressed together, our lips almost locking. I knew I only needed to move a little for us to begin to kiss each other.Someone could come in here. Seth, the warriors, anyone whatsoever. I didn't want anyone to get any ide

    CELESTE POVI paused at the threshold of the room, inhaling deeply.It was dark in here, with less light. There were just two windows that might have been used to allow air to drift into the room and ward off the scent of sweat that surrounded it now.But it was barely useful.This wasn't unlike the general training room, which was bright and warm.It was cold, unwelcoming…dark and mysterious. Yet, I left the doorside and wandered inside.The silence in the room was another thing. It was almost deafening. I could barely hear anything. Not even the echo of my footsteps.My fingers reached out, tracing the weapons that lined the walls as I walked past them. Swords with edges honed so fine they could slice a hair midair, silver-tipped spears, weighted gauntlets, and rows of throwing knives.I felt the sharpness, stories, and pain behind each one I touched. I shuddered, wrapping my arms around myself.I stilled as I felt a presence. Slowly, I swirled, but no one was in the room with me.I
