The human city was bustling with activities. It seemed a carnival was ongoing and we stood by the side of the road, watching as they paraded in their numerous colorful dresses.The sound of drums and trumpets drowned out every sound and we had to shout to each other so we could be heard."It's the eastern festival," Medea yelled into my ear. "What's that?" I yelled back."I read about it once. It's something the humans celebrate once every year," Medea explained."Let's find a place to eat," Alec yelled and propelled us away from the road side.As we hurried through the busy road, I bumped into someone."I'm terribly sorry," I said quickly and looked up at who I bumped into.It was a tall man, with curly brown hair and emerald eyes. Eyes like mine. He smiled at me and mouthed, 'no worries'.My eyes followed him as he smiled charmingly at me and walked away.I couldn't stop staring at him as the distance between us grew and I frowned in annoyance. Apart from Alpha Gabriel, I had never
Alpha GabrielI was heading to the bathroom when my beta hurried towards me. "Alpha," Killian called out and I turned around to face him."What is it?" I asked with a frown. He sounded worried."It's Serenity, Alpha," Killian reported urgently. "What about her?" I demanded, feeling Spirit come alive within me. I hoped something hadn't happened to her"I was watching her like you ordered me to, but them I saw her and her friends heading towards the human city," Killian explained. "I didn't want to follow them without letting you know"I cursed within me. Serenity knew it was prohibited to venture into the human city, unless it was absolutely important. She just had different ways of disobeying me and making me pissed. "Come with me," I instructed Killian and brushed passed him. I grabbed my shirt and pulled it on as I walked towards the forest. "Before they headed towards the human city, did you see her elsewhere?" I asked."I saw her in the forest," Killian said as he tried to kee
Unknown POVI stood at the edge of the forest, watching Serenity as Gabriel pulled her with him.To say I was furious was an understatement. I was raging mad. I wanted to shed blood. I wanted to teach Gabriel a bitter lesson, for placing his hands on what belonged to me. On what was mine.Serenity belonged to me alone and no one else. Especially not Gabriel.I waited for a while to make sure they had gone far before I ventured into the forest. As I moved further in, I could hear their voices. Serenity was having an argument with Gabriel and I moved closer wanting to hear their conversation."It seems you enjoy being rebellious," Gabriel was saying. My hands curled into fists, aching to punch something. The sound of Gabriel's voice alone infuriated me. I took deep breaths, tuning out their conversation and trying to quench the rage inside me. And when I heard Gabriel's next words, I totally lost it."I'm going to teach you a lesson. A lesson you will never forget"I shifted suddenly,
Alpha GabrielSerenity had fallen asleep in my arms by the time I arrived home. Her chest rose and fell in deep slumber and I watched her calm face as she slept. I knew I was the first man to ever pleasure her that way because I remembered how tight she was. Remembering it now threatened to give me a hardon and make Spirit come alive.Moving carefully not to awake her, I climbed the stairs slowly and made my way to one of the numerous guest rooms. I was so tempted to take her to my room, but for some reasons, I decided not to.Yes! I was crazy about Serenity and I wanted her to be my mate, but she wasn't yet. A part of me still dreaded discovering that my mate was another woman, especially now that Serenity and I were a thing. She didn't even stir when I placed her on the bed. She was totally exhausted, content from the pleasure I made her experience. A small smile lifted my lips and I softly touch a strand of her dark hair, my eyes locked on her face. "What have I gotten myself in
Alpha GabrielI raced through the forest in blinding speed, the trees blurring rapidly as my pace increased. My eyes remained bloodred, a sign of my beast unleashed. As I ran, the words written in the note played repeatedly in my mind.'this is just the beginning Gabriel. A taste of my war to come. Soon, I shall have what you desire so much. Serenity. Try to save her if you can'I let out another loud roar and struck down a massive tree that blocked my path. My claws snapped the thick bark in two, each parts falling apart as I raced through. I didn't know who this person was, but I knew he had something to do with Serenity. I knew it had something to do with the rogue attack, and the secret Lucian told me about Serenity.Which was why I felt so protective towards her. She was still innocent. She didn't know anything about her real identity, because Lucian had kept the secret from her ever since she was born. When Lucian told me his suspicions about Serenity's powers and how he suspe
"I told you we would meet again," the werewolf said, his face twisted into a wicked grin.I stared at him in fear, my breath frozen in my throat. I couldn't move a muscle and it terrified me. Why couldn't I move?The werewolf seemed to understand me and he chuckled. "Don't worry," he assured. "It's a mild tranquilizer, something to calm your spirited wolf while we have a little chitchat. Can't risk letting you bite my head off"He laughed at his own joke and all I could do was stare at him. My entire limbs felt like jelly. I tried to connect with Moon but she had retreated far into my mind, a place I couldn't reach her."I hope my little pets weren't too much for you," the werewolf continued, waving a hand towards the rogue werewolves. "They're so obedient when it comes to following my orders""You... control... the rogues?" I asked in shock, forcing the words through my lips that were so numb that it was difficult to speak."Of course, my sweet," the werewolf said, relaxing against a
SerenityI raised my hand again, ready to strike the rogues with lightning when suddenly, I felt weak and I collapsed to the ground.The lightning bolts disappeared and the dark sky brightened again, daylight taking over. The full moon disappeared behind the clouds, and the power I felt a moment ago disappeared, leaving me feeling extremely weak.The werewolf, seeing what had happened, walked towards me carefully. He held the side of his stomach, and I could see blood dripping from the wound. The blast from the lightning had wounded him."Your powers are fighting to emerge, even before you come of age," he whispered, keeping a safe distance away from me. I wanted to ask him what he meant, but I felt so weak and limbless. I could barely raise my hand."I shall keep an eye on you, Serenity," he said finally, retreating into the shadows. "We will meet again"I watched him disappear into the forest, his pack of rogues running after him. I tried to get up, but it seemed the strange power
SerenityMy eyes slowly opened and I pushed myself up. My body protested with my movements and I felt dizzy and weak. I didn't know why I felt so weak. I hadn't been attacked. I wasn't hurt, yet I felt like my entire body was on fire.I wanted to remain on the bed but after hearing everything Uncle Lucian told Alpha Gabriel about me, I couldn't. My mind was in disarray, my thoughts were scattered. I felt like my entire existence was a lie. I had lived with Uncle Lucian for years, right from a baby to an adult, and yet he still kept the truth about my identity hidden.One question resounded in my head.Why? Why would he do a thing like that? I had every right to know about my parents, and about what kind of strange powers I possessed. The fact that he thought he was protecting me by not telling me was what angered me.I stared at the two of them as they spoke by the window, and then Alpha Gabriel turned his head and stared at me."You're awake," he rushed to the bed and gently lowered
