Elina heaved a silent relief when finally the alpha let her out of the barrier. She had watched what had gone down and knew the alpha was not someone to mess with. The person who sent his wolves to attack Angel knew exactly what he was up against. Standing tall unscathed was Angel, his sharp claws buried deep in the hand's chest that Elina feared he would rip his heart out with his bare hands. The man was lean and well-built. Unfortunately, not even his muscles could save him from the vicious king. His friends suffered some worse than death. “Go on…hahaha kill me, just know this…you'll fall and we will rise as the rulers!” The man said with mocking laughter when he turned back into a human after a vicious attack from the king, which left him coughing out blood as he fisted the grass and crawled to his feet. His entire face was covered in red liquid dripping down his body. “Ripping your little heart out is nothing, how dare you invade my territory" “The one who sent you signed your de
“Who did it?” Oliver panicked when the two girls called him inside. Elina was lying unconscious. Both Hazel and Violet were panicking. Afraid of what just happened to her.“We…we didn't do anything okay…she just fainted,” Hazel stammered as she paced back and tried to call for a doctor. Elina was getting pale by the minute. Nothing was working.“I'm sure there's a way… she's too cold,” Violet muttered as she felt Elina's forehead with the back of her hand. Her skin was as cold as ice. Her pulse was faint. Violet was worried about Elina… something was wrong with her.“I already called someone…you two should pray nothing happens to her,” Oliver said disdainfully only to get eyed by Violet“You know…why don't you call him here…call that monster of an alpha,” Violet remarked bitterly as she rose from the bed. Her sharp eyes were fixed on Oliver, giving her a sour look.“Umm, Violet…we just escaped prison, remember?” Hazel muttered, reminding Violet of what she was saying about the werewol
(Elina)“Please have this?”“Am I sick… how long have I been sleeping…where are Hazel and Violet?” I asked while scanning the room I woke up in. Reaching for my head, why was it heavy? Madam Lucy was giving me some pills with a glass of water.“You fainted, the doctor said you should take some meds to make you feel better,” the lady said with a smile, glancing at her hand. I didn't know what to say. How come I had no collection of what happened, or what caused me to pass out? Massaging my head, I nodded and took the two white pills from her and quickly popped them in my mouth and gulped down the water to wash them down.“That's good… I made breakfast, but I'm not sure what you will love” the lady remarked with a small frown plastered on her face. For a while, I was staring at her. She seemed to be hiding something from me.“Umm, anything will do,” I said, and I was about to crawl out of bed when she stopped me.“The king said you should rest… ““I'm fine, I'm not sick that I'm certain
“Let me help you ma'am, are you okay?,” Elina said and helped the old lady pack the fruits and vegetables which fell from her basket in the middle of the road. “Dear, I'll be fine…it's nothing,” the woman said while gathering her squashed tomatoes, Elina felt sorry for her. She was old and could barely stand on her own. Even so, she was energetic. A beautiful round face with a few freckles on her cheeks. Her bright brown eyes shone with loneliness, and her smile was as beautiful as hers. Despite her gray hair, Elina found the lady's appearance quite appealing“Here, I'll help you,” Elina said and packed most of the fruit. She didn't know there existed people who were so cruel, the road was busy, and she was crossing the road when some insane driver nearly ran her over.“Young lady, it's not necessary… I can manage,” the lady said, shaking her head and holding the basket in her arms“Come I'll drop you off, don't worry… I'm not bad,” Elina coaxed with a smile, the lady was helpless. T
The Perkins mansion was lit aglow with bright lights since the day was slowly turning to darkness. Elina's mom walked into the room her eldest daughter was in, accompanied by Violet. The two shut the door and proceeded in. Like every time, Leah was awake and resting her back against the headboard. Elina's mom sat on the bed beside her while Violet stood to the side, She brought some warm soup for her. If Elina wasn't gone. She'd be the one attending to her elder sister."Her condition is getting much worse… Aunt is there another way… I'm afraid she isn't going to last,” Violet said, seeing how thin Leah had become. Even her eyes, which used to be bright and big had seemed tired. Elina's mom knew what was happening. Eventually, her daughter was going to be no more. The pain of losing both hurt her more than anything, “She'll be fine,” Elina's mom muttered while coaxing her daughter to eat something. The sadness in her eyes was like a sharp knife piercing her heart. “Elina is trying a
(Elina)I screamed. My whole body was falling in complete darkness. I could feel the strong wind pushing me down. I had my eyes open for a while, but closed them, feeling no use in having them open since I couldn’t see anything.The fangs of the wind ripped at my skin as I found myself falling down the building, overpowered by gravity. My cracking voice could barely be heard at every attempt to scream for help. The heavy rains accompanied by lightning and thunder continued in their frightening horror. Slapping against my skin like a thousand ants eating away my flesh.I knew I was dead. I saw life flash before my eyes as I braced myself for the worst to come. The stinging sensation on my back intensified so much that I felt a sharp pain piercing through my flesh. Looking down as I braced myself for death. I saw flashing lights, more like fire. Growling howls erupted in the air, so frightening and malicious that I swore some beasts were fighting down below. Closing my eyes, I braced my
“Relax, Elina…he'll be fine…just a minor injury,” Oliver said as soon as they brought the alpha back inside to his room. Elina was pacing back and forth. What minor injury was he talking about because the alpha's back was badly burned?“Call the werewolf now… we need him here,” it was Miguel who ordered while placing the king on the bed. The scene was frightening and nerve-wracking.“He's badly hurt… I thought he was immortal or something,” I was desperate, soaking wet and confused. He was supposed to be indestructible, so why was he hurt? Wolves healed on their own.“He's fine, please step out for a while… the doctor will soon be here,” Oliver said while trying to shove me out of the room. Miguel just showed up out of nowhere, when the king and I were in that forest, and came to help us.“But …what…isn't he a vampire…can't he heal?” I had so many questions to ask, but Oliver pushed me out of the room and shut the door.“Oliver…let me in!” I commanded as I attempted to open the door…u
Back at the cottage, the old lady Elina had met earlier was fuming in anger as she attended to her grandson, who was badly hurt. Despite how stubborn and careless he was.“Hold still, who told you to fight him huh,” she scolded as she applied for some herbal medicine to his wounds, he didn't flinch or move but remained still. The old woman was stunned at how he was still when the wounds he had were deep and eating away his flesh.“If she did that to save him… you should let it go,” the old woman added, trying to get some sense into her grandson, he was hurt and lost nearly half of his powers. He was still recovering from a fight he had with the werewolf king, and now he went ahead and started another.“You showed yourself to him…he won't let you off,” the woman reprimanded, by now she knew any better than to provoke anyone, especially the alpha king.“You are still forgetting what's at stake… Or should I remind you what's going on,” Raphael muttered in a cold tone. His hands tightly c
