He crawled on the wooden front deck as his body was gradually returning to his human form. He tried to reach for the doorknob but unable to. His body was weakening for some reasons and the pain was throbbing harder than before. His wolf kept trying to force him to shift once more but Cohen resisted the temptation. Ever since he had lost Mira, the transition between his human and wolf forms was always excruciating.
Cohen just curled on the front deck, naked. The pain was too much again. Too much for him to bear at this point. Every muscle in his body numb. Every breath he took was just adding more pain to his chest as if something had crushed his chest.
Too much pain to bear.
He was suffocating. He needed something to survive. No, he needed his mate to survive. At this rate, Cohen didn’t know if he would ever s
“What the hell were you thinking?” Liam yelled at Amanda as soon as he returned. “You know how fragile his control is. You should have kept it to yourself.”“The migraine was not a migraine, Liam. I spoke the truth. His mating bond is constructing and that is something that should have not happened.”“But couldn’t you keep it to yourself for a little bit?”Liam was frustrated. He thought doing a friendly hunting match would help Cohen could keep his mind a little bit better. But as soon as they returned, this happened.Brandon knocked on the door and said, “Liam, Cohen already reached the lake house. His mother is there too. Should I put a team to overwatch?”
Jane arrived in front of an enormous dark castle located in the mountains. Her wings folded behind her and disappeared. The thunder struck the dark sky once again but she remained unfazed. She glanced over her shoulder and saw thousands of dark armies waiting for her instruction. Jane walked into the castle, greeted by the elite guards that she chose by herself to protect Trinity although Trinity didn’t need any sort of security. Her dark magic was strong enough to repel her enemies without a second thought.As she continued to walk deeper into the castle, hundreds of skeletal slaves were moving corpses out of the castle for disposal. Jane arrived in the bathing chamber. It was a room that only had a large hot tub. Instead of filled with warm water, it was filled with the blood of those corpses. Trinity was relaxing in the hot tub.“My Lady,&r
It took her five hours to get her final conclusion. But, she was not sure if she could tell Cohen about it just yet. Although her heart was against keeping secret from Cohen, Amanda valued her life. She couldn’t die without helping him to get Mira back. It didn’t matter if his mate was resurrected or not. They just needed to get her back. That was the goal.Yes, it would be better if Mira was resurrected. At least, that would give Cohen a second chance. But, Amanda feared someone resurrected Mira for a bigger goal that hung between life and death.The white witch returned to the pack mansion and prayed that she wouldn’t face Cohen. Three Enforcers came from the office and carried the broken desk and chair before another group of Enforcers came with the new replacements. Amanda entered the office and let out a sigh of relief. There were just Li
The housekeeper stood straight in front of the castle with an umbrella in hand, ready to greet the family’s oldest friend, Clavier Hubert, a doctor and a friend to Stefano. A black SUV stopped and Josef greeted the doctor while he was shielding him from the rain. The weather was terrible lately.“What is the hassle for me to come this quick?” Clavier grunted in annoyance.There was a time where Stefano would threaten him with empty threats but considering what Stefano was capable of, Clavier was rather not testing his theory.“Lord Stefano is—” The housekeeper paused, unable to form the proper words.Clavier waited patiently for the housekeeper to finish his sentence as they made their way to the stairs. Josef sighed in defeat. He coul
“You know this is against what your council is preaching,” Clavier said.Stefano nodded. He knew the rules of the Council. The law of nature should never be disturbed no matter what it was. Stefano broke that law when he resurrected her from the dead. Though she wasn’t his Adeline, her face was enough for him to ease the burden of missing the woman he loved. For hundreds of years, he suppressed his feelings deep inside himself after her death.“It’s going to cause an uproar,” Clavier continued on glancing to the second floor where Stefano’s stepmother’s bedroom used to be. “She won’t stay quiet, you know.”“She will not be a problem if she knows her place,” Stefano replied.“Tell me
“My lord,” Josef called after Clavier had left the castle.Stefano turned his attention to his housekeeper and nodded in acknowledgement. The expression that Josef had was enough to confirm everything. His council had gathered without giving him a notice. That was something Stefano disliked.“Watch over her for me,” Stefano said to Josef before leaving.“Yes, my lord.”Stefano vanished in thin air and a moment later, he arrived in the Council’s building. Everyone was shocked by his sudden appearance. Usually, someone would inform everyone of his arrival. This time, he didn’t have the time for formal courtesy. He walked to the Great Hall.“So, you’ve gathered,”
Amanda drove out of the territory, heading to one place that she might have the answer to the things that happened lately. She didn’t want to waste more time just in case her suspicion was true. She feared that Mira was already resurrected which answered why Cohen’s mating bond was reconstructed. If Mira was actually resurrected, the balance of the world would fall.After driving nearly two hours, she stopped at a horse ranch and wheat farm. There, a two storey wooden house was located. A woman was working outside the barn, raking some dried grasses outside of it. Amanda came out of her car and looked at the woman. The woman turned at her before approaching her.“What are you doing here?” the woman asked.“I need to know something,” Amanda replied.The woman’s expression changed. “I don’t know anything.”She quickly left. Amanda chased after her and said, “Matilda, you know something
Daemon was different from a demon or the demon wolf. Daemon was known as a godlike deity. They had power incomparable to any other creatures ever walked on Earth. It was said that daemons were the first creature to walk on Earth before anything else. That made them the world’s oldest species. However, there was no confirmation they ever existed. People passed down stories like that. Just like how the stories of demon wolf happened. If a demon wolf could exist through a myth, then daemon could too.And according to the legend, a daemon was the only powerful creature that could use the resurrection spell without causing a catastrophic event.“Should we be happy that Mira was resurrected or should we fear what this—” Vincent trailed off, “— daemon could do to her?”A question t
