LOGINCrystal’s POV I was taken aback. For a few seconds I was speechless. I opened my mouth expecting no sound to come out but I was wrong. "Was?" I was offended and it clearly showed. Tristan chuckled. "What's so funny?" I whined. "Why did you change your mind?" After the year Tristan and
I learnt as much as I could about leading the pack. I still didn't know how Tristan did it. I had barely just graduated high school and all these people looked at me waiting for guidance and protection. It was daunting and nerve racking but I tried my best. The AAP training helped too. I was g
Crystal’s POV (One year later) I learnt to speak in silence. At least around Tristan. When he got too quiet, I knew it was time to get him to a place of isolation where he could sit in his grief without the whole world watching him. I could tell the pack wasn't the same and though our loss
Roman still hadn't returned and I could tell Crystal was worried even though she didn't voice it out. Probably worried about what I might think. But I guess seeing as to how Roman had helped us both escape, maybe I could try to overlook my intense dislike for the guy. Meggy had gotten up sayin

Crystal’s POV I spat out some blood. I looked at my mother desperately. The vial felt hot in my pocket and I wondered if it had broken with the way I had been thrown around. I wanted to panic knowing the risk. What had Raphael said? Even a drop was enough. He looked at me expectantly. "Mu
Crystal’s POV When it was just Ornyx and I, I didn't dare move. I just stared at him head on. He got up to his feet. I thought he would march right up to me and bash my head into the ground or something but he just walked over to the closest table. "Did you learn much about war fate in that
Crystal’s POV Ornyx sat in a chair in the centre. Looking as ever as the evil king he was supposed to be. Scrolls and paper were scattered around as well. Plans and lists pinned onto walls. All the activity seemed to stop at my appearance. The men stopped to stare. I froze feeling self co
