Camilla's POV

Cassian had gone to fetch my father from the hands of the captives when I heard the door being opened. I had to hide behind the shelves to take a proper, unnoticeable look at the intruder. My heart was beating very fast in my chest when I saw Jace walk in.

He must have believed that no one was inside. He didn't see or hear anything after all. I stayed behind the shelves, waiting to see what he would do, believing everyone was absent, until I suddenly heard him call my name.

"You think I don't know the Lycan's scent?" Jace questioned. "I know you're hiding. Come out, little Camilla. This is very urgent. Please?"

The tone of his voice made me resist hesitation. I quickly got out of the corner, my gaze resting on the confused expression on his face. He was deeply worried about something.

"Why is your forehead full of beads of sweat?" That was my first question. Anyone would notice that first.

"Because the pack is going down!" He slightly raised his voice. "And I don't know

  • Rejected By Alpha, Marked By The Cursed Lycan King   Mercy Is Not Kindness

    Camilla's POV“One more complaint and you’re deported to the North Pack. Having to stay in this pack comes with a lot of responsibility. Being my private assistant shows how lucky you should feel,” I proclaimed to Noelle.“I’ve heard enough.” Noelle tried to stop me as she arranged my shelves. “I’m doing something already. You shouldn’t try to shift my focus. Thank you.”“Lycan Cassian would have buried you alive if I gave him the chance. You are forever indebted to me, Noelle, and then again, strangers are more obligated to do everything the Luna of the pack says. Are you aware?”“When would you stop flaunting the Luna position? I’ve been a Luna too, and I don’t think my job was to sit down somewhere and speak like I’m on top of the world.” Noelle rolled her eyes as she spoke.“I’m on top of the world. Yes, I’m allowed to say that. But you are not. Imagine replacing your friend and ending up working as her maid. Isn’t that humiliating?” I laughed dryly as she quickly arranged the boo

    Camilla's POV“The Alpha of the North Pack, Damon, was so shocked. No one would expect you to make that choice. You are selfless, little Camilla,” Jace held my hands as he said, sitting next to me in bed.“Small correction. My boyfriend wants everyone to call me big Camilla now,” I corrected. “I would like you to say that, Jace.”“Definitely, big Camilla,” he said with a gentle smile. “Your stepsister came to apologize for how she made your life journey rough. She’s intentional about making you feel safe, protected, loved, and cherished forever. I’m serious.”Noelle’s eyes found mine. She sat on the chair instead, stammering before the first statement left her lips. “I’m… I’m so sorry, sister. I didn’t know you would have to make such a crucial decision. I… am so grateful for that choice. I mean, I could have died and you would be praised nonetheless. Thank you for your selfless act.”“My wolf is gone already. There’s no need for this emotional show. Would you return to Damon’s pack t

  • Rejected By Alpha, Marked By The Cursed Lycan King   Big Camilla

    Camilla's POV“No one is here with us. Cry if you want to. It’s allowed,” he whispered into my ear as he kissed my chin. “The door is locked. The guards are on duty. No one can overhear this discussion. Talk to me now, big Camilla. How do you feel?”I scoffed, forcing a smile. “That’s the new name now?”“Of course. Are you surprised?” His deep voice made my ears appreciate existence as I shut my eyes to accommodate waves of pleasure.“Sure,” I clipped. “It sounds pretty good though. But I don’t think it’s proper to call me that. I’m human now, you know?”“Oh, dang. Don’t say that again. You’re the love of my life. You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me. You’re the Luna of the Blood Moon Pack. How can you call the name improper for you?” His words restored hope to my mind, but hope wouldn’t restore my wolf.“You should be in your office now, Lycan Cassian. I don’t want to stand in your way. Your wolves need you more than I do,” I said, my eyes fixed on his perfect face. A s

  • Rejected By Alpha, Marked By The Cursed Lycan King   The Price We Pay

    Camilla's POV"If I choose the first option, which is to permit the cursed wolf to feed on my stepsister, I will live with the guilt forever,” I said, my eyes fixed on the witch. There was quiet. Everyone wanted to know what option I would go for. My heart was beating faster than ever. I would either have to permit murder to keep my relationship and security spell intact, or let go of the strength I’d always sought for, just to keep lives intact.“I have to sacrifice my wolf. I can’t afford to lose my stepsister, not for any reason,” I proclaimed. Cassian’s gaze fell on mine. His eyes flashed red, and his voice roared as he warned strictly.“Change your mind, little Camilla. I can’t watch you undergo the process. You cannot afford to lose your wolf because of a vagabond. He lied to you. She is not your stepsister. She must have bribed him. Change your mind!” Cassian roared.I kept my head lowered as I heard the voice of the witch.“You are not allowed to come closer. Stay on the spot

    Camilla's POVThe bright white light intensified at the centre of my forehead, reminding me of my first experience with the strange woman. The outcome of the intensification (the gold crust) did save me from the dangerous folks that were ready to slay me some months ago.Was she here to take it from me?Everyone stayed quiet as we hoped this wouldn't be our end. We couldn't run, neither could we scream, even though we tried to.Some minutes later, the bright white light lowered in intensity and we all shared a sigh as we raised our heads. And then I saw the face of the woman. She saw me too. She wasn't willing to hide her face this time around, and I wondered why.Just as we saw her face, the figure of the massive rogue came into view as well. My heart skipped a beat as my body shuddered. Ripples of shock moved through my veins, but I waited to see what would happen.The woman didn't say a word, nor did anyone else. Silence prevailed for many minutes as we continued to watch what the

  • Rejected By Alpha, Marked By The Cursed Lycan King   When the Woods Answered Back

    Camilla's POVONE MONTH LATERThe patrol team has reported that they have encountered little to no rogues in the past one month. Even the rebels didn't come close to the borderline. Initially, I believed it was a tactic to attack us when we would least expect it. But that was not the case.The investigative team carried out an intelligent research on the rogues in the woods. They realized that there has been a mass slaughter of rogues, including the ones who held wolves captive and the senior-ranked rogues. Many wolf leaders had tried to achieve this in the past years, but they never did.They also noticed the pattern of the rogues' deaths. It happened mostly around ten in the night through to the dead of the night, around 1 in the morning. But they hadn't yet found the predator, nor could they figure out why the rogues were being killed. It did enhance the safety of the wolves, but it was mysterious too.Two weeks ago, Lycan Cassian made a very crucial decision. He entered my room, h
