Meanwhile, Skyler returned to the back to deal with paperwork that had piled up for the past few days. He locked himself in the office so he could focus more on work and avoid being disturbed by anyone. From time to time his thoughts will drift over to Clara who he had left in the wailing faeries. He hoped she would be able to accomplish her goals and even though he was quite uncomfortable with leaving her with his rival in love, Skyler wasn't worried because he trusted Clara and her love for him. For the few hours they have been apart from each other Skyler felt suffocated by her absence. He wondered how quickly his little princess had grown on him.Unlike most girls he had seen, Clara was rather very quiet, he also noticed how much of a loner she was, apart from her Mom and a few friends she had, there was nobody else around her. And knowing the circumstances in which she grew up, Skyler had a lot of pity for her. He had lost a parent when he was still very young and he knew how muc
Hours have passed and Clara has finally covered all the contents of the last book. She closed the book with a sigh leaving her lips. Standing up from her seat, Clara raised her hand and stretched herself before leaving the book behind and exiting the library. She made her way through the hallway and took the left stairs that led to the living room. On reaching there, she saw Melanie chatting with her grandma and the old lady's shoulders continued to rock from laughter. Clara stood at the door watching both banshees while being surprised by the fact that the old lady could actually laugh. Nimue had always portrayed aloofness and superiority but seeing her like this made Clara see her in a new light the Nimue before her was just a grandma enjoying the company of her grandchild.Clara felt a tad bit jealous just by looking at them. Although she was quite close to her foster mother, the moment they shared was always short because Flora was always very busy. And her biological mother was
Skyler had received Intel that a pack of rogues were wanting to settle on the freelands. Skyler and his pack warriors were going to stop them from settling in the free lands, Skyler didn't want to have another one of Annette's puppets walking freely or staying anywhere near the pack's territory. He walked out of the castle and made his way to the place where everyone was to assemble. On reaching there,the others were gathered and waiting for his arrival.Skyler's gaze traveled from one person to the other, making sure everyone present was fit to take part in the hunt, and then he noticed everyone was present except for Beta. "Where is beta?" He directed his question to isaac."At home, his mate isn't feeling too well," Isaac said. "Hmm" was all Skyler said."I hope everyone is ready?" He asked."Yes, Alpha" they said in unison."Good" "Desmond and Leon, you will wait outside to take down any rogue that tries to escape."Yes, Alpha""Myself and Isaac will attack and the rest of you
Hours have passed and Inside the packs clinic, Skyler watched the werewolves receive treatment, only a few of them had gained consciousness so far but even at that, none have been able to shift back to their human form and it worried Skyler. After examining the werewolves, the pack's doctor called Skyler and his bata into his office to have a word with them.Skyler went into the office and Lucas followed behind, both taking their seats facing the pack's doctor. Lucas nodded for him to go ahead and spill whatever he had to say. "Alpha, we have a problem," the doctor said.Skyler and Lucas turned to look at each other before turning back to face the doctor." What's the problem?" Skyler asked."The werewolves, I don't think they will be able to shift" he said Skyler frowned as he was yet to understand what the doctor meant by his sentence" I don't understand, can you please explain" Skyler said and Lucas nodded, agreeing with Skyler because he too wasn't understanding it."The guys wou
"I have asked Aliyah to bring breakfast," Skyler said when Clara walked out of the closet."She doesn't have to, I don't think I have to stomach for this this morning" Clara told him. She really wasn't in the mood for food. Things were rough and the last time on her mind was food. Skyler watched her for a moment and nodded,"If you say so," he said.Skyler hadn't quite been able to remove his dreams from his mind, he wondered if it had anything to do with his blood that was taken by the witches. He didn't say anything about it to anyone because he didn't want them to worry about him, the pack already had a ton of things to worry about and he knew how Clara dreaded the witches so revealing his blood was taken would give Clara a sleepless night and he didn't want that. She was already going through enough pressure."Since we've both decided to skip breakfast, why don't we go and drop you off at the wailing faeries?" Skyler said."Alright, I'm ready" Clara took her handbag and followed he
Clara followed the tiny light and found herself in a strange but beautiful land. The sky was as clear as a crystal. Trees and flowers swayed along with the wind and the atmosphere carried a sense of grandeur and sublimity. Clara could hear the different sounds coming from all around her. The Chirping of birds,the buzzing of bees, hissing snakes and many more. The sounds were so overwhelming that Clara found it hard to stay focused on one sound. After trying for quite a long time, Clara was at loss. She didn't know what she was supposed to find or how she was supposed to find it. "This isn't working for me" she murmured."That's because you're not listening" a voice said and Clara quickly looked in the direction where the voice came and her eyes widened with great shock.Mom?" Clara called, not sure if she was seeing right. A sad smile formed on the woman's face. Clara still wasn't sure if she was seeing right, but if she was,then how did she get here and why is she here.As if knowin
Skyler left the others inside the cabin and went out to the front porch, he leaned forward and placed his hand on the handrail. He looked into the field absorbed in his own thoughts. Too many things were happening all at once and Skyler felt he had failed as a leader and even as a mate. Leon, Desmond and the others were stuck in their wolf form and while he managed to escape the curse, he was more than useless at finding a solution. He wondered where the witches were hiding and what next they were upto. Somehow he knew the witches were attacking the pack because of his mate and they wouldn't stop. The rumors about Clara bringing bad luck to the pack worried him and he also knew the person behind it but decided to ignore her as there were better things to waste his time on, even though he knew how hurt Clara would feel when she came to hear about the rumors But now wasn't the time to care about some petty talks but to take actions rather.While he was lost in his thoughts, Lucas came
Henry turned to his sister."I would like to talk to Clara alone for a minute, do you mind" he said.Oh no, not at all, I was just about to take my leave" Melanie said, turning to Clara" I will be inside, call me if you need me" she said.Clara gave her a nod and watched Melanie take her leave. Clara let out a sigh. If she could she would take her leave as well. She didn't want to be around this guy alone in a place like this, and she didn't want him to talk about his feelings for her either because there would never be anything between them. He was nice and nearly as handsome as Skyler but the feeling wasn't there at all. Clara went to sit on the bench and he sat next to her." I heard your coronation is in seven days" he said."Can you believe it?, It was only a few months when I was running from all of these and now I have found my song and will be queen in seven day" Clara smiled."Life is unpredictable but I'm happy you came around. The whole tribe was withering away without her q
