MasukSorrel’s POV “Do you think you can bring back other pack members’ memories?” Abigeal asked out of the blue. I stopped what I was doing and faced her.“What do you mean?” I turned to her.“I mean, you made Sabestain retain his memory after my idiotic brother. I am thinking if you can replicate it on other pack members. It will be a good start to put an end to this midnight sun madness.”“That makes total sense, but we have one major problem,” I said. “I don’t know how I did it.”“You don’t?”“Honestly I had an idea I could do anything until Mel explained some things to me.”Her face fell at that. I didn’t think I could do it either. I was confused about these powers inside me. I didn’t understand them and the pack was in this turmoil. There was no way for us to learn what my powers were about.“Maybe we can ask them questions, like what they remember and then you can try to push your power forward.”“I don’t know how to push those powers forward.”She got up, not giving up. “Let’s che
Sorrel’s POV “We have to be careful from now on,” I told Kaine. “We can’t be seen together by the pack from now on. Nathaniel’s eyes will be on us and he can use that medium against us.”“I understand.”“So you cannot take his bait, or fall into his trap outside. He’ll just try to use it on you. And trust me the last thing the pack wants to know is the fact that the oracle is with someone.”Kaine took my hand and pressed his lips on my hand. “I understand completely.”“Do you?”“Yes. You do not have to over explain yourself.”I smiled. “I just wanted to make sure you understand.”“I do.” He ran a finger over my cheeks. “I am not as oblivious as before.”“Well…” I lowered my head. “I forget sometimes.”He stared at me.“So this is okay?” He pulled me closer to his face so that we were staring into each other’s eyes. “Since we are alone.”My heart missed a beat and my throat suddenly became parched from his boldness.“I want to know who you were before you became the oracle,”“Why?” H
Sorrel’s POV My father looked at me with wide eyes.“What?”“He’s the one cursing the plague father. It’s all him.”“What does he want?” My father asked.I sighed. “It’s beyond our knowledge, father. But he’s not working alone.”I shifted closer to him when the servants came to tell him about his bath. I stood up and he did as well.“I’ll be back soon,” I said to him before walking out of the room.“How’s he?” Poppy questioned when she saw me“He’s holding up fine,” I sighed. “I didn’t know he was going through all that. I thought that maybe he was okay. Am I a bad daughter?”“No, no, you are not at all.”Well it felt like that to me, like I had failed him. Like I was supposed to know that he was not okay. They were literally soulmates.“You were heartbroken yourself after the brutal death of your mother,” she said. “And the only reason you are better is because of your mate.”“Shhhh.” I closed her mouth. “You can’t say stuff like that. Like at all. You never know who’s listening.”S
Sorrel’s POVI haven’t seen my father in a long time. He was the only parent I had left. I went to the kitchen and watched Poppy prepare food for me.When she was done, I took it from her. “Don’t worry, I’ll take it to him.”“I should warn you,” I stopped and faced her. “He said I should not do anything. But he’s suffering, Sorrel.”“But the last time I saw him, he was okay,” I said.“Well, he’s hiding it from you.”“What? Why?”“He doesn’t want you to worry.”My heart fell; I knew my father would be suffering. But after Mother’s ghost made an appearance I thought that he had been okay, that he would be okay for the moment but I had been dead wrong.“Thank you,” I told Poppy. I took the food up the stairs to his room. I knocked on the door a little and pushed the door open. I walked in and Poppy had been right. No, she had been more than right.The curtains were closed, there was no light in the room and he was on the ground. Plates from last night were displayed all over the place.
Abigeal’s POVI couldn’t believe it; my worst nightmare was right in front of me. Nathaniel found out about Sabestain.My Sabestain!He was staring at me from the bed. Our room was adjoined to Sorrel’s. Good thing the moon goddess or whomever she was, had picked her out for great things.Her destiny would be to save us all. I hoped she saved us before we all died.“Abby—““You don’t understand he—“ he rushed over and covered my mouth.“We agreed not to talk about it. I spoke with Poppy and she has been acing it.”“That’s because my dear brother doesn’t know that she knows.”“He doesn’t know that I know either. I’ll be extremely careful.”“You can’t fool him,” I insisted.“Have a little faith in me. Don’t you trust me?”“I do,” I said genuinely. “I really do but not with this.”“Think of it this way, if you keep worrying he’s going to guess something is wrong and he’s going to attack me.” He tilted my chin with his hand. “Look at me.”I did. “I will be fine.”I calmed my physical worr
Sorrel’s POV I went to meet Kaine in the room immediately.Nathaniel wouldn't rest until he made sure Sabestain remembered nothing, or he killed him. And I hoped that Sabestain understood what was at stake and played his part well. For himself and Abigeal because she really looked happy with him.“What did you find?” I asked Mel.She was pacing and she looked like a mess. “This is highly qualified information.”“I understand,” I said. “We should let Abigeal know.”“I do not think that is a good idea.” “She is on our side, and let me tell you after everything Nathaniel has done to her. The last thing she would do is side with him.”And more than that she needed a good reason to be on our side. She might deflect if Nathaniel threatened her with Sabestain. She had to know that Sabestain would only be safe on our side.“Luna—““If it goes south it’s on me,” I assured her, and she caved.“Very well.”I left the room and went to call Abigeal. I didn’t think to knock, and I regretted that
Sorrel’s povNo…no…noI stumbled back, hands on the wall as I tried to find my way back to my fitting room. Noise hummed in my head and their moans floated at the back of my mind.*It’s normal. It’s okay after all this is all just formalities* I told myself repeatedly as I crept down the cold hallw
Sorrel’s POVI jumped to my feet and tossed the pillow and sheets on the bed. Then I quickly smoothed my hair. With a glance at the mirror, I threw the door open.My breath hitched.Sometimes I forgot how ethereal Kaine was. He had jet-black hair, and I didn’t know if he put effort into looking oth
Sorrel’s povMy body was on fire. For two days after the rejection, it felt like I would combust into tiny pieces of flesh, but I didn’t and some part of me wished I’d do.Today I was accepting my fate.I was Luna to the Wolffang pack and I was married to Alpha Nathaniel whether I liked it or not.
Sorrel’s pov“Who’s your mate?“ Nathaniel asked the moment we were in our room. He was furious, ready to burn me to the ground with his stare.He was never going to love me, even after 6 months of courtship to sell this lie.“Answer me!” He barked and I flinched.“No one!” I blurted out. I don’t kn
