ATLAS POVThe shattering of my cabin's door left me drenched in sweat. Three figures stormed into my cabin. Judging by the footsteps, these three unexpected visitors were my cousins coming after Rhea. It has been a long time since their last visit to my Cabin.We simply hated other werewolves to death because we are rogues who separated ourselves from the Crimson pack after the great war. However, I have never anticipated that they would smell her from their Cabin. And the fact that I brought Rhea here only means I am the only one who can defend her. Immediately, I sprang to my feet outside the Cabin. I saw my three cousins glaring at me. Then Jared- my closest cousin who is the same as my age blurted out hateful words. "How stupid are you to bring a werewolf?" he growled at me. "Believe it or not, I saved her out of pity. She ain't a dangerous she-wolf so why are you bothered anyway?""Have you forgotten what they did to you? My cousin replied, glaring at me. "I have not forgotte
"Come on, maybe I can help you with your problem," he insisted. I took a deep sigh as I looked him in the eyes and I saw his sincerity. "My mate rejected me and his father ordered his bodyguards to beat me and threw me to the cliff. He said that I might bring bad luck to his son if he accepted me as his mate," I said with sadness creeping up my face. That's all I can tell to him right now, it seems like he does not know who I am so for my own safety, I won't say to him that I have the blood of a witch running through my veins. "And care to name your mate who rejected you?" he asked again. "His name is Matthew, the forthcoming Alpha of his pack," I held on my pendant, "And this one wrapped around my neck is the only thing he left for me." Tears run down my face as I tell my horrible story to him. After saving my life, I think there is nothing wrong to pour out all my anger to him as I rushed toward him and hugged him tightly. He accepted my embrace and rubbed my back to com
RHEA POVI can really see the sincerity in Atlas's eyes. He is really determined to serve the other rogues for the rest of his life. As we were heading back toward his fortress, he started collapsing on the ground. I managed to catch his head though. He looked pale and weak, he was only relying on me. "What happened to you?" I asked in wonder. He gave me a wide smile even though his face was already twisted with pain, "Maybe I overused my strength in fighting my cousin. But rest assured that I'm okay.""Hold on a second, would you like me to get food for us?""No, I just wanted to rest my body," he answered with a weak voice. I wanted to panic right now. I felt so damn guilty that Atlas put his life on the line just to protect someone like me. "Altas, you are a great leader of your pack but it's unnecessary for you to engage in a trivial fight like this. I would rather leave this place than see them doing this to you.""Please do not blame yourself, Rhea, I chose to protect you wi
MATTHEW POVI'm inside my room, having an intimate dinner with Cindy who is soon-to-be my bride, along with my father. While I kept smiling at her every time our eyes met, it was the opposite of what I was feeling inside me. Until this very moment, I'm still concerned about what happened to Rhea. She is my fated mate, after all, the one whom I'm supposedly sharing my dinner with. Imagining her face, I could not help but grin slightly. I wonder if it were her I was gonna marry, it would surely be the best days of my life- and I would probably become the luckiest man alive. "It looks like you are smiling, is it because you are excited to tie the knot with your second mate?" Cindy asked, pulling me out of my thoughts. I stared at her coldly, making her feel that she did not matter to me at all- even this ridiculous wedding that my cunning evil father had set up. He is the only one in my damn family who will surely benefit from this bullshit. As per me, I would need to prepare myself b
MATTHEW POVI put my wine on the table and returned my gaze to her. "What's with the long face? Aren't you supposed to be happy that I'm still here?"I crossed my arms over my chest while keeping my straight face, "Aren't you supposed to be heading your home, Cindy? It's already midnight and I don't want to entertain any more visitors- even if it's my fiancé!""But we are getting married soon and I want to spend more time with you, is that too bad to ask? We are both grown-up adults here..."I am so annoyed with her presence. She is so damn persistent and obsessed with me. "We should abide by the rules of the Moon Goddess. Fated mates aren't allowed to sleep together not unless they are officially married. Please do not do this again, I do not have any interest in talking to someone in the middle of the night. All I want is to rest my body because I was tired because I've done so much work today."She started making a pitiful face. Until now, I still could not believe that I'd marry
MATTHEW POVI managed to sit down in a wobbling chair, and I could feel it would collapse anytime soon. I followed him with my eyes until he settled on the chair in front of me. The thunder strikes from the skies, making everything even more terrifying. "Why do I feel those thunder striking is it because I have come here? The weather was nice until I arrived here...""First of all," he said, starting at me without blinking his eyes, "I wanted you to know that I'm not an ordinary person but a cursed witch hiding from the likes of you. So believe it or not, out of all the people here, only you can see me and my house. I created a portal that connects you to my domain."I laughed at his words, This man is sick in the head- I am certain of that! "But all the witches have been eradicated many years ago! According to my father, they died in the great war along with the other creatures except for us," I exclaimed. When it comes to history, there is nobody I trust when I ask questions exce
As I am in the middle of the dark forest, I heard foot steps of someone. I closed my eyes to concentrate and someone speak to me through mind link. "Who is it?" I asked in wonder while looking around. I dropped the sheep and grapes I got from few hours of searching. "So you can also communicate with us through mind link," the familiar voice said. "Who the hell are you? Are you one of those three who attacked Atlas earlier?""I am," he answered with deep voice then I finally recognized who is it that connected to me thru mind link. "Jared, is that you? Haven't you heard what Atlas said earlier? You cannot lay your finger on me! Besides, I am not here to cause any trouble. I have come here to help Alpha Atlas. He feels so weak and he needs to regain his strength," I lengthily explained. "So please, just leave me alone and let me return the favor to him.""There is one more thing you should know about him," he said. "Something about him that would surely make you shock in fear.""And
Touching his body, I started to feel asleep until my eyes shuts. Suddenly, I heard Jared through mind link again. "Do you have a minute? I would like to talk to you for a while. Don't worry, I am not here to cause you any trouble. I just want to show you my appreciation because of what you have done to save my cousin," he said, sounding so nice and friendly but I am not convince because I smell something fishy is going on. I was so fucking terrified. The fact that Atlas is not yet waking up only means that I'm the only one who can defend myself just in case Jared attempt to attack me. "I don't want to talk to you," I said, "Please, let your cousin rest for a while. Neither of us is capable of defending ourselves.""I told you, I ain't come here to cause you any trouble. I have come here to show my appreciation."I heard heavy foot steps on the ground and it's getting louder and louder. The banging on the door came again. I am freaking tired of dealing with Jared so I decided to co
