Kaitlyn runs away from the person who should love her unconditionally. All because she has no wolf. The only family she has is not a safe place anymore. What will she discover in the darkest hour of the night?
View More" What am I supposed to do? He is going to kill them all." Demetria was pacing around her room. She could not find a place to rest, as the thoughts of the innocent children living in the castle were chasing her whenever she stopped for a moment. "Your father did not mention killing anyone." Elena spoke in her mind. Her voice was calm, but the girl knew she shared her emotions. " Of course, he did not. But what else can he have in mind by saying ~ eliminate~? It is clear he would not let them go." The girl replied, stopping for a moment. She looked through the window, where the stars shone in the sky. The night seemed so peaceful and quiet while the storm was on full blow in her soul. " There is a way." Demetria's dragon said slowly, and an interest perked in the girl's mind. " What do you mean by that?" " I can't explain it for sure, but whenever we need help, someone, gods know who is giving us hints." Elena replied, and Demetria could not disagree with her. There was something
Kylan's eyes were wide open, threatening to pop out of his skull any minute now. He opened his mouth like a fish pulled out of the water, but no coherent words came out. The young man stood still, processing what he was seeing, but his brain was rejecting acceptance of the fact that his father stood before him. Was he dreaming? The last days took a toll on him, and maybe his mind played tricks on him. If that was true, Kylan was experiencing the worst nightmare of his life. Did his father escape from the underground and come back to haunt him for his sins? - You look surprised. - Felix spoke calmly, and Kylan shivered. That did not sound like a voice from the afterlife. This voice sounded like the one he had heard in the past. It was soft but filled with power- the power Kylan could not find in himself right now. - What are you doing here?- The young Alpha asked in a weak voice. This has to be a dream, and he will wake up any minute now. Felix could not be here, and the dead could
Demetria watched her father enter the room together with some of his generals. All men took their assigned places in silence. Some of them had sly smiles dancing on their lips as if they just received excellent news. Their expression made Demetria feel uneasy. They had to know about something, and she was going to find out soon.The girl tried to keep her face straight while fear crawled up her back. - I am glad to see you here so early. - Her father smiled at her, but it did not help ease her worries. - I assumed it was essential to be here on time. I have a feeling it will be a life-changing meeting. - Demetria replied, forcing a relaxed expression to her face. - You are more than right about that.- The Dragon King clapped his hands, and the girl felt nauseous. This level of excitement could mean only one thing- troubles.- Your Majesty, the latest reports look very promising. I am sure we are ready for the final strike.- One of the generals spoke, pointing to the papers he held.
Kylan took a deep breath. It was not the return he pictured. He was supposed to come back home with at least a few dragon warriors to support him, but nothing like this happened. Instead, he was returning alone, unprepared to face his pack members. The last time they saw each other, he killed his parents to please the Dragon King. The man put his foot down confidently. He may be alone, but for the Goddess's sake, he was an Alpha now, and they would obey his will. If not, every person who decides to stand against him will face consequences. Kylan looked around with confidence. It was his home, his pack. His parents could be good leaders, but he would show everyone he was the great one. There was no place for weakness right now. The Dragon King could betray him, but he was not defenseless. The dragon's behavior still stung, but Kylanm could not dwell on it much longer. But was it really betrayal? Maybe it was a test. Maybe Lucius did it to let Kylan prove he was worthy of his support
- Do you really think it is a good idea? - Kaitlyn looked at Dorothea, who was glancing at the portal with hesitation. - We need to get in touch with rebels. - She replied. If this plan was going to work, her sisters needed to trust her. The problem was Kaitlyn wasn't sure about what was waiting for them. She had not heard from Cassius for a while now, but she was sure they had not much time to waste. Callista will soon figure out, she was tricked, and Kaitlyn could swear, her old friend won't leave it like that. As planned, Demetria's mother divided witches into two groups. One of them was responsible for supporting werewolves while she took the second group with her. Now, she stood with four other women in front of the portal who were supposed to take them to Wisterium. Her companions were scared, and Kaitlyn could not blame them for that. After all, they were entering the most dangerous place they could. - Everything will be fine. My friend is there.- Kaitlyn encouraged her sist
Demetria absent-mindedly listened to one of the servants, who interrupted her. The young boy was saying something, but all she could think about right now were the secret doors behind the tapestry. My Princess, the King wishes to see you tomorrow morning. There will be a meeting at his office.- The boy said with his eyes glued to the floor. She couldn't even see his face.- Please tell my father I will be there.- Demetria replied quickly before shutting the door. It was impolite, but she could not wait to see what was hidden behind the mysterious doors. She stood silent for a while, making sure no one was near her room. Demetria quickly locked her door, ensuring no one uninvited would come in while she was going to deal with a secret pass. The girl ran to the tapestry and pulled it to the side. She grabbed the knob and pushed it, but the door remained closed. It was a little disappointing but not surprising. Why would anyone keep it open? Besides, she would not appreciate it if som
Everyone was stunned by Kaitlyn's decision. The Blood Promise was an ancient ritual, almost forgotten these times. It was bonding one witch to another, and there was no way to escape the punishment if you betrayed your sisters. That was why Blood Promise was almost forgotten. Trust was not valued amongst witches since they easily sided with anyone who had power, turning their backs on the old allies. That was also a reason why witches were hated by other shifters living on the continent. And now, leaders of all covens had to accept Kaitlyn's offer or face the consequences, and she had already proved her strength. Bethany and Carla paid a price for underestimating her. - So, how is it going to be?- Kaitlyn asked, scanning the room. No witch was brave enough to speak first. Finally, Dorothea stood up from her seat. - I will do it. I wouldn't say I like the idea, but living under the Dragon King's rules is not an option for me either. I am a witch, and I want to live like one. -
- Do you really think this is going to work? - Devin looked doubtfully at the men gathered in the room. There were only four of them. - It may sound wild, but that is what Demetria wants us to do. And I trust her.- Cassius replied without hesitation. Nickolas, standing next to the Dragon Prince, nodded with enthusiasm. Devin glanced at the last man in the room, Peter, who only shrugged his arms. - It doesn't sound wild, it is wild!- The young man pointed out, sitting in his chair. His frustration was growing with every passing day. This Demetria, who was she? The mysterious woman was helping them, but he could not shake off the feeling she had some hidden agenda. After all, she was the daughter of the Dragon King, the most enormous monster known. Who knew what sat inside of her heart? Of course, thanks to her, they still could use the food safely, but maybe one day, she will change her mind and decide to side with her father. What was worst was that Cassius made them all trust her
Amanda's summons came unexpectedly. She wished to see them in two days. One thing was certain: It was important for her to see all the leaders in person. The older witch was very secretive and did not like others to visit her precious coven. It was too risky to gather so many powerful women in one place. Who knows what ideas and plans they could have in mind?But now, she suddenly changed her mind. No one dared to question this decision, as it could have unpleasant consequences.Now, all of them were waiting for Amanda, as requested. All nine leaders were in one room. The atmosphere was tense since they could hardly be called friends. They were sisters, but that was just a meaningless title that witches had used for years. The last time they worked together was, in fact, Amanda's order regarding Kaitlyn, the infamous witch who became a mate of the Dragon King.All leaders waited with anticipation of what she could need for now. The room was heavily guarded, but no one seemed surprise
