A private invitation was sent to Judah by Livey and he acknowledged it immediately, he arrived at Atlantis with Livey waiting for him in the court room.He looked around for Ash but there was no sign of him.“Where is malicious thing you call a mate, I was hoping to meet him one last time before I lay waste to this city” he stated with affirmation in his tone.“You mean kill him” Livey corrected.After the fight Judah had with Ash it had been proposed in her heart that he would want to exact his revenge on him and what better way to do so than to kill him.“What else would I have done to him, so where is he?” He asked stretching his arm wide with a staff in his other hand.“He is long gone, he doesn’t matter anymore. This discussion is between me and you” Livey said relaxing her back on the chair with a straight position, she had to show Judah that she wasn’t scared of him neither his threats of war even though she had been shaken up to the point that she rejected her mate.“You let h
Livey was still stuck to the wall while Judah walked closer to her in slow and steady steps.“Do you think you can defeat me?” He questioned drawing the last member of the council to him and killing him by breaking his neck.“I have lived for thousands of years to have a little child like you challenge me” he muttered to her.Livey struggled to be released but she was pinned so tightly to the wall with no escape.“I watched you die countless times, I am the holder of your life” he said releasing her but still keeping her in pain. Livey fell to the ground on her knees and he grabbed her face to look at him.“You can never defeat me” he kept on bragging to her, over the years he had defeated her with what ever plan she had up her sleeves, it wasn’t the first time she led him into a trap.“I own you Livey and you will bear my heir” he slapped hard and she fell down to the ground, he squeezed his hands so tightly that Livey could feel her organs were being crushed causing her more pain.“
Livey picked him up by grabbing him by his collar, “You seem to know more than I do, where is that damn witch who cursed me?” She asked to end everything once and for all, because of Judah she had rejected Ash just to keep him safe. Now that she had defeated him, she needed to get rid of one factor which is the witch who cursed her to never be with her true mate.“I could tell you but I don’t think she wil help you, she has a grudge against your parents and that was why she cursed you” He laughed with the bit of strength he had which pisssed her off.Livey couldn’t take him teasing her just to find out the truth, she kept her hand on his wound and increased his pain.“Now you will tell me exactly what I want” she demanded and he smirked.“She lives in Nortgen hill so far off the Coast, that would be a beautiful place for you to die” he insinuated that the witch would attack her once she found out who she was.“Thank you but I am pretty sure that I can defeat her the same way I defeate
The trip to Northgen hill began a day later, Livey mounted her horse and so did Newton.Lord Thane was with them to bid his goodbye, he held Livey’s hand with affection and worry in his eyes, “Be safe” he cautioned and she nodded to do just that.“Make sure to protect my niece” He ordered Newton.“I would give my life for her majesty” he replied him and Thane was satisfied with his response as he pulled back from them and watched them gallop their horses out of Atlantis.After four hours of riding, Livey decided that they should rest just by a lake while the horses drank some water to sustain them.She sat on a tree branch eating when Newton joined her,“What do you think will happen when we get there, do you think the witch would accept to be break the curse?” He asked in curiousity.“It is better to expect disappointment, I know she will not go down without a fight. You heard what Judah said, that I might actually die at her hand but I am wiling to try if that is the only way I coul
“No, don’t do it Livey, I would not accept it. It is my misery not yours” he pulled away from her knowing exactly what she wanted to say but she followed him.“Listen Newton, I know you are hurting deep down from me loving another man who is not you and I want to take away such pain from you. I can’t let you suffer like this” she rephrased.“No” he refused.“I Livey Helmes reject you…“No, you can’t reject me” he crashed his lips on hers kissing her fiercely like his life depended on it.Livey was too shocked to react, she felt her body answer to him as she was burning up, he pulled her closer to him deepening the kiss and she felt butterflies in her stomach and tingles just from their body contact. He was her mate and there was no doubt about it because of the way her body reacted to him but something felt off, everything she felt suddenly faded in an instant.She guessed her body realized it wasn’t Ash her true mate so she pushed him off her.“What are you doing?” She yelled.“Didn’
At the Peachmoon pack, Ash couldn't help but remember the good times he had with Livey.His mind played all the sweet memories they had together and he was broken to see them.It had been five days since he was rejected and he hadn't heard a word from her, he wished each day to be given a chance to see her but it just didn't happen. He was miserable because of her and he knew it, her absence had taken a toll on him that he couldn't think straight at most times.Ash had showered her with so much love than he had ever done for anyone, being his mate he had vowed in his heart to protect her and make her happy.But in the end she didn't choose him, she had done that twice and he understood those times because of the circumstances they were in but after overcoming them all and being together, she rejected him."Am I a joke to you?" He asked stabbing the book in his hand with a pen.Her rejection had hurt his ego, it had shattered his pride, his heart was also broken. He flipped his table
A new dawn began in the Peachmoon pack and Alice prepared herself for a beautiful day. She began making breakfast because she had invited Ash to come over to eat which he obliged, she hummed a song while cutting the vegetables when she felt the presence of someone watching her. Turning behind, she saw a man holding a knife and smirking at her. “What do you want, and how did you get in here?” She asked startled by the unexpected visit. “Introducing myself is not important but what I came her for is more, you are the mother of that naive little Alpha who ruined my plans, Aren’t you?” He asked and Alice just stared at him confused, she was certain she had never met him before and the Alpha he referred to was her son Ash. He had dark bags under his eyes like he hadn’t slept for days and she wondered why he was in her home. “I don’t understand what you are talking about” she stated pulling back, the man she was speaking with held a knife in his hand so she thought she might a
Newton returned to Livey the next morning fully clothed, he found her putting off the fire she had made to keep herself and the horses warm last night.“Newton” she called his name immediately she saw him, she had thought he abandoned her and left after their argument.“Can we talk?” He asked and she nodded in response. He sat her down on a branch,“You shouldn’t have rejected me that way?” He began,“I’m sorry, I just didn’t want to raise your hopes up” she replied.After Livey found out that he was her mate, she was certain he still believed she would come to him just as she did in her previous incarnations.“I get it and you are right, I did think that one day you would come to me but it is all good now.I can’t force you to love me because I know how much you love Ash, you rejected me because of him right and not just to spare me?” He asked and she nodded then he continued.“Somethings do change and maybe this is a chance for you to get the happiness you hadn’t gotten in ages, wit
