Butterflies should have fluttered...Bliss and longing should have been birthed inside me...The heart should have skipped beats...But none of this happened.Instead!Dread! waves and waves of it washed over me.It was my 20th birthday and according to the rules of our world, I was an adult now, ready to be tested for my potential mate.Who wouldn't want a mate? Right? Everyone wants to be cherished and yet my heart knew it was just a fantasy now.Our world had progressed to the point that once every werewolf crossed the age of 20, he or she would give their blood sample at the collection centre and with that numerous tests were carried out, genetic makeup was checked and potency for potential mates was reviewed.The matches were made on the computer and meetings of these 'hopeful' mates were held. 97 per cent was the success rate of this system called "The Mate Fusion" and now almost everyone relied on it. Because finding your fated mate in the open world was an arduous task.The catch was, the supernatural world was experiencing a crisis. The number of females who could give birth was dwindling. No one knew for sure what was causing it but the birth hormone 'Liastronse' was decreasing.There were all kinds of conspiracy theories regarding the issue but no one knew the truth. So fertile females were now regarded as precious gems, and demand was so high that the test results were kept top secret. In case of a leakage, the fertile ones were kidnapped and sold to the highest bidder in the black market.Packs began sharing females, even fertile Lunas were not safe and some sick-minded alphas began using them as breeders. Sending them to other alphas who needed an heir or even sharing them with their betas and other pack members.Sacrilegious mate bond was being squandered by many and this scared the hell out of me.My father Wakins Ruthinie was the alpha of our pack, 'Solstice Howlers', one of the largest packs in the South and I was his eldest daughter; Karica Ruthinie.I had twin siblings who were three years younger than me. Being the oldest, a lot of eyes were on me and my father wanted me to find my mate and settle down with him.So the very next day after I turned 20. My father sent me to the lab for being tested to determine my compatibility with a potential mate and also for levels of Liastronse in my body. Any female with levels higher than 60% was considered fertile and thus heavily guarded. Their independence would be squashed and no free will existed for them.Deep within, I yearned for the gift of fertility, like an innate desire rooted in my being. Yet, as I thought about the bleakness of this twisted world. I realized that embracing such a prospect would turn out to be ill-fated for me. What if my fated would want to share me with others? I would prefer death than to be humiliated in such a fashion.My siblings Kaina and Kilran accompanied me to the lab."You alright?" Kaina affectionately asked, seeing me lost."I am, I just don't want to end up with some jerk. I want someone sweet and kind," I confessed to her.The nurse sharply jabbed me with the syringe as if she had some personal vendetta against me, I cringed."More like you want someone boring," she rolled her eyes at me, making me laugh."Don't worry big sis, I will always protect you," Kilran spoke from my other side, rubbing my arm. Our future Alpha and my younger brother. He was smart and intelligent and I knew the pack will be in good hands after our father stepped down."All done," the nurse announced, rubbing the pricked area with a spirited cotton swab."When will the results be available?" Kilran asked her."Tomorrow," she picked up her apparatus and left the room with vials of my blood. A suffocating sense of nervousness fell over me, enveloping me in its dark tendrils. I didn't have a good feeling about it.We went home and I confined myself in my room. The night was spent on tenterhooks. My father was a daunting Alpha and he didn't believe in weakness. He had always been harsh with my now-deceased mother and I didn't want someone like him to be my mate.He was set hard in his ways and I knew he wouldn't even flinch before handing me over to my potential mate, no matter who it would be.The next day, my father had an official meeting with some other alphas, so he left with instructions that he needed to be informed as soon as I got my results.I dreaded opening them, so I just sat there with my phone in my shaky hands. A profuse amount of sweating covered me and I nervously chewed on my fingernails, while tapping my right foot on the wooden floor."It will be alright. Mate will love us," my wolf Laila purred in my head. I got her when I turned 15 and she had been a great companion since then."We don't know that. What if he is a sadistic prick? Or if he is a Lycan? You know how they are. Brutal and barbaric," I murmured with a sigh.The continent of 'North Camlus' belonged to the Lycans and no one else could step foot in their territory. They held zero remorse while killing others and no supernatural being was safe from them. Not many lycans were seen in South but their names were used to instill fear into the hearts of children as well as adults."Big sis, did you see your results?" Kilran asked, walking towards me while munching on an apple, I shook my head."Let's see it together," he sauntered over to my side and affectionately wrapped his arm around my shoulders.With trembling hands I swiped the screen of my phone, bringing it to life and opened the website. My heart beating fast inside my ribcage and my throat parched like a desert.I punched in my name 'Karica Wakins' and searched. The results were displayed in a second on the screen and I gasped and almost dropped my phone.1. Liastronse level = 91%2. Fertile or Barren = Fertile3. Potential Mate = Xynathius WarvineThe ground seemed to have shifted from below me at his name and I shuddered. My brother's hold tightened around my shoulder and a low growl escaped him. My hands shook uncontrollably and I couldn't hold the phone any longer. Kilran took the phone from me and pulled me closer, while blankly staring at the screen."I can't," I whimpered to my brother as tears streaked down my cheeks."Run away and hide. I know few people in the human world. They will help you. I will not let father hand you over to a monster," Kilran announced with a tightened jaw, he was barely holding onto himself.Xynathius belonged to the most ruthless Lycan pack in the North. The Warbringer Pack. It was known for the bloody wars they had fought over history. They were remorseless killers and stopped at nothing but to destroy whatever stood in their way."But…," I began but Kilran cut me off."We don't have time. He must have gotten the notification by now and will be on his way to take you away. I have heard about their pack, they haven't had a child born in over five years now. With that level of Liastronse, I will not risk your life. You have to go while father is away."He dragged me up and steadied me. Taking my face in his hands, he wiped my tears. I was shivering uncontrollably as he lovingly spoke with his forest green eyes holding back emotions."I will handle everything, don't worry. Just go and pack," and ushered me to my room."We can't run away. We have to wait for our mate," Laila was upset with the turn of events. But I had no time. I didn't want to end up in some twisted s*x orgy or to become a fucking breeder. Because that's what most fertile females ended up doing.So that was the day I ran, from my pack, my family, my life and my mate and I never looked back.Unaware that the three sets of eyes opened differently that day.BlackBlueGreen(Three years later) Author’s POV “Mommy! look, butterfly.” Minerva pointed to the blue butterfly that was slowly flapping its wings over the multitude of flowers. The apple pendant rested peacefully around her neck. Karica sat on the fresh grass and happily watched her four-year-old daughter play in the small meadow that used to belong to the witches of Black Forest. Most of them were buried nearby after Vildus’s attack had killed them. Including two of her mentors, Gwardia and Arasia. The efforts of reconciliation had failed between her and Xynathius and she had moved here two years ago. He visited every week to meet Minerva and carrying hopes that Karica might decide to return but she never did. This place calmed her down, she could sense powerful magic running deep into the very ground and air. It pulled Karica and Minerva too. Her daughter was already showing early signs of possessing magic and this place helped channel that in a peaceful environment. The protection charm
Karica’s POVReturning to my former pack and going on a limb to talk to the man I thought was my father all my life, was not easy. With my state of mind, I just wanted to get this over with and he needed to hear me out. Kaina was overjoyed to see me and so was Selia. We hugged and sat down to talk. “We were so worried about you. It was a relief when news of your return arrived.” Kaina held me close and I sat with my head resting on her shoulder. Selia was holding my other hand. “Yes, indeed. And Kilran told me about Adiyan. I am sorry your friend is gone,” Selia sympathetically said not knowing he meant so much more to me and I was no more afraid of talking aloud about him. “He was also my mate. I am a part witch and so was he. Adiyan was the best thing to happen to me and I lost him because I didn't value him enough.” I spoke my truth and both girls were a bit taken aback. Two mates were unheard of and I didn't want to burden them with the likes of Vildus. He was no mate to me.
Karica’s POVHow I made it from the cemetery to his home was all blurry. Xynathius held me all along but he didn't say much and if he did, I didn't remember. His family was kind enough to let me go to his room. I slowly opened the door and lingering whiffs of his scent blanketed me. I paused, closed my eyes and got hold of my emotions. Flicking on the light switch, I let my eyes roam his sanctuary for one last time. Everything was immaculately laid out, neat and in its place. His bed, where we had cuddled so many times. His gaming area, where we had endlessly played video games. His closet filled with his clothes, ones he would never get a chance to wear again. I traced my fingertips on everything he had owned while heavily sighing. The empty feeling in my chest grew. The echoes of his laughter still persisted from the moments when he used to tickle me. All that was just reduced to his loving memories. Stepping closer to his bed, and there between his pillows, I found the wolfie st
Karica’s POVXynathius’s words were like gasoline on my already raging self. The loss of Adiyan had torn my heart into so many pieces that I couldn't put them back together anymore. Every breath was torture for I was reminded of him. I had no clue how to cope with such stifling emotions. Barely holding on and now this revelation further shattered me. Adiyan had felt me, he had reached out to me but Xynathius never even gave me an option to choose. He knew I would choose him. I silently shook my head at Xynathius so disappointed. He had not only taken my free will he even snubbed my rights to choose my mate. His presence and scent which should soothe me in such a moment was nothing but torture. “Because I am selfish when it comes down to you. I wanted you all by myself. It was wrong, I admit it but I was desperate. Sharing you was something I could never do.” His words blazed me and I flipped. All the pent-up anger inside me emerged like a poisonous snake and bit him. “It was not y
Xynathius’s POVVildus was gone from our lives as well as our world but so was Adiyan. The prophecy was completed and fulfilled, leaving my mate broken. She wouldn't let go of Adiyan’s body, she wouldn't hear me, Laila or Zilver. Everyone had been shut out as she mourned the loss of her mate. I touched her shoulder letting her know I was there for her but she just sat there dazedly, staring blankly at his face. The guilt dug its tentacles deep into my heart. Adiyan was a better man than me in every aspect and he would have made an exceptional mate to her. Karica was right about him when she first met me. And yet he was gone and I was partially responsible. The guilt will never fade. I owed my life to him, he died protecting us and this was a kind of debt which couldn't be repaid. She bent down and kissed his lips and then his forehead. Her lips stayed there in a final goodbye as she hugged him to her chest, a scream and a tremorous wave of energy burst through her and hit us all
Karica’s POVThe most horrendous scream escaped me as my body jerked forward, the whole world blurring around me. All I could hear and focus on was Adiyan’s slowly beating heart. He was still alive but for how long?My own seemed to have been crushed under a boulder and there was only one thought on my mind. I had to save my mate. I slowly watched Vildus reaching out to him, the time seemed to be progressing at a snail’s pace for me. Vildus was about to slit his throat. “Noooo,” I cried out in desperation as a surge of spiked air with frozen thunderbolts shot out and were hurled in Vildus’s direction. His hollowed-out laugh erupted and clung to my sides as he disintegrated into bats and tried to fly away again. “No, you won't,” I screamed out with all the disgust and rage I carried. Halting, I converged my hands together, the blackened energy I carried inside rushed out in gigantic swirls and wrapped themselves around Vildus’s bats like writhing snakes. This was my piled-up hate f
