CELESTE

I didn't leave the clinic, not when it seemed like my life was threatened. For instance, one of the patients had decided it was the best time to play with me by holding my neck and squeezing it until I was breathless.

Mind you, I didn't watch that happen. I had struggled myself, trying to pry his hand off, even with the assistance of someone like Sabrina, who could have ignored me and gone on with her business. She hadn't.

I caressed my throat, which was still sore from the squeeze. I turned to Hanna as I felt her eyes on me.

I wasn't giving up yet. I believed she was waiting for me to run away as fast as I could in the direction of home, but I couldn't bring myself to do so.

“I'll be fine,” I mouthed, stopping her as she moved towards me.

Hanna still looked concerned, but she didn't move further after I reassured her. She went on to attend to the patient in front of her.

Sabrina sighed, stumbling slightly. I caught her hand to steady her. “You should take a rest. There are s

    CELESTEI guess I didn't need to wait longer for me to see how Sabrina would end. The others had given up and were now resting while Sabrina kept pushing on. I didn't know who she was trying to impress, definitely not me because she hated my gut.She kept snapping at anyone that got in her way and had even resorted to shoving them if they didn't comply or were stalling too much.I sat with Hanna on the sofa nearby while we tried to regain our strength, at the same time ready to help anyone who showed signs of distress.“Do you think I need to speak to her?” Hanna asked. She looked worried. For Sabrina who had been mean to her several times and had even resorted to violence on some occasion, I do not think she was worth the trouble. I'd rather stay away if I was the one.Besides, it was the same Sabrina who had been mean when she found out she was pregnant. At least, the least could have done was protect her and pretend like she cared rather than be a witch and give her the cold shoul

    CELESTEEverything was spiraling out of control.One minute I was in the infirmary helping out, the workload was mostly on Sabrina and some of the medical team were as well down with illness that was still unknown.Even though Sabrina hadn't admitted she needed help, I had offered to.The next minute, a loud bang resounded, almost deafening me. Followed by cries from pack members.At first, I had thought the sound was to announce the arrival of the alpha because that was how it was done in the blood moon pack house, especially when the alpha had been away.But this didn't bring any joyful tidings. And no one should be crying when something like that was done except it was during the mourning festival which I hadn't seen happen here.Hanna rushed into the infirmary, breathless. She strode towards me, fear clearly etched on her face.The door to the infirmary wasn't closed and people weren't running inside further, that meant we weren't getting attacked. At least, that was what I wanted

    DAMONWhat is this place?The room pulsed with an otherworldly energy. I turned around as I felt thousands of eyes on me.I turned around, looking at the walls, that seemed to be closing in on me each seconds, the spiral staircase that had just appeared out of nowhere, and the raised altar in the room’s centre, which had a candle whose flame flickered like the wind on it.I could see no one. Nothing. Just the feelings of being stared at. I turned to look at Seth. He was behind me.His expression was one of awe, just like it had been on my face earlier. I wondered if he could feel what I felt. Or perhaps I was the only one having such feelings because, unlike me, he didn't look the least disturbed.“Where is this place?” He echoed the questions in my thoughts.That was what I wanted to know, too. In all my years of going on hunts, I had never encountered this cave until now. I mean, if I had known its existence, this would have been our refuge rather than us roaming around the forest l

  • REJECTED, Then Becoming King's Adorable Omega   You're too nice

    CELESTEToday was another lazy day for me around the pack house. Since Damon had left for the hunt, there was nothing much for me to do, except follow Hanna while she gave me a tour.It was a never-ending one because the pack house was huge. I never realized how big it was until we began to explore. Also, something would come up when I believed I knew everything I should know.For instance, I learned how Damon had taken over as the pack house alpha, although it wasn't something that was spoken about and was only a snippet that Hanna had been able to reveal to me.I couldn't tell if she was hiding more from me because I was still very new to the pack house, or if she didn't know everything herself.Damon was once mated. No, had intended to mate until his lover betrayed him. The Betrayal, which was what I didn't know, because Hanna said nothing. She had only said Damon was brainwashed and betrayed by his ex-lover, who was a witch.And she had been killed after a verdict had been placed

    DAMON“How are you holding up? Think we should return yet? Nothing seems to be coming up.” Seth hollered from where he was on the oak tree.It was his idea to climb above the tree if he could find prey on which we'd hunt.For a week now, we have yet to find suitable prey. Just rabbits, rodents, and other smaller crawling insects. That wasn't what we often hunted on, barely enough to take to the pack house to use as a feast.We hunted mostly larger animals, like boars and bears, but none had shown up. The forest was as dry as the leaves, and it felt as if the animals had arranged a meeting for them to be absent this season. It was a first for us. We had never gone on a hunt and returned home empty-handed before.“I'm not giving up yet,” I yelled back. How could I? I was the Alpha here, meant to be a source of moral support to the others. Giving up would mean the rest would feel the same way. There was still time—it had only been a week—so we had plenty of time to catch as many animals

    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

  • REJECTED, Then Becoming King's Adorable Omega   She has a fever

    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
