"No, you're not, I mean you are a good sorcerer and good at what you do. As a wolf that almost lost his powers, it's sort of difficult for me. I haven't been able to wolf out fully ever since the potion," I said in a low mass tone and Vladimir seemed to have noticed my shift in mood as he moved closer to me as I was seated on my bed."Don't be too hard on yourself okay?" You are making progress, and you are also brave," my eyes began to feel wet at his statement. It's like the first time he was complimenting me. "Thank you, Vladimir," I said in between deep breaths as I was about to break into tears. "You're welcome Scarlett," he answered, staring at me like he sees my soul. I didn't think before acting as I drew him in for a kiss. He did not fight it but I could see how shocked he was by my spontaneous move. I was even shocked. He in turn kissed me back and we were only interrupted by the sudden knock on the door."Training's in two minutes," Sigil said from the other side of the doo
JACK'S POV"How did you know that I was coming?" He asked as he walked behind me. "I saw you," I responded and he looked at me like I was crazy."I see that Killian almost killed you,""Yes, how do you know that?" he asked in confusion."I just know," I responded then we got to the courtyard so I sat down with him also sitting."Okay, since you already know all those things without me telling you, that means you should already know why I'm here," he said and I nodded."Alright, that's impressive, but I'll say it anyway. I need your help to win against Killian. I don't want him as the Alpha anymore as I would want to take in the title. I know for sure that he is a common enemy to us both, I need men and here I know there are men, as the fight against Killian isn't going to be successful I'd only face him as he is using-""Yes you are right, I know he is accepting dark magic and powers for his selfish reasons," I responded."So you would help me right?" He asked."I would but on one con
Part of what happened was my fault. As a youth, I wasn't outspoken in expressing my feelings. I loved Mabel ever since we were teenagers and made her my friend at first by taking baby steps but the day I managed to gather courage and pour out my feelings to her but she didn't reciprocate my love at that point."Why now Rufus? What took you so long?""I can't like you now Rufus, I'm with your brother,"She said those words casually but it was one of the most hurtful things for me to hear in my life, but as an honest man I didn't beg for her love, I just focused on myself and never had anything to do with women again.***"How long would it take to reach?" I asked Mabel."Just a couple of days," she answered."I needed more specifics," I said in a stern voice."It would take about four days." She responded.I didn't acknowledge the response she gave for there was no need to give her one. I just wanted to estimate how long it would take for me to be able to execute my plan."My king, the
MABEL'S POVThe pain that comes with watching the one you birthed die right in front of you, without him getting to know his true identity and fulfilling his purpose. The pain that comes with being a mother.I for once never saw his death coming, I had it all planned out but that asshole Adolf. The man I wanted to notice and love me at first even though I'd be his second choice.Rufus was in love with me and I wasn't surprised as he first met me before Adolf. I was first friends with Rufus when we were young. He didn't confess to me on time and when he did…***"Mabel," he called out to me as we sat near the lake. That day I happened to run away from home and he was the first person I turned to he followed me to the lake, which was a place where I found peace."Yes Rufus," I answered and he moved closer to me."There's something I have been wanting to tell you for some time now," he said and my heartbeat became erratic. "What's that?" I asked, then he held my hand and looked at me int
RYAN'S POVI was dumb to trust Killian. What was I thinking? I blamed myself as I hid at one of the corners of Manor's palace.What can I do now? It all seems like Killian had this all planned to trap me and hinder me from being unable to fight back.I underestimated him, he is one hell of a smart fellow. "Where did he run to?" I heard some of the guards ask as they passed by. I made sure to hide myself properly inside the knight's armor used as decoration in the hallway.When they left I quickly went into the kitchen and met one of the kitchen maids. I quickly scribbled a letter to Maxwell and handed it over to her to help give him. I did not want to go meet him and drag the guards pursuing me to him. There's only one thing to do. If I want to defeat Killian I have to have backup, men preferably to have my back, and the only person in the same situation as I am is Jack. I have to find him.I went to the stables and successfully lost my horse and I charged at the entrance disregarding
RUFUS'S POVI didn't make it on time as Adolf had already rescued that brat and Brooke was nowhere to be found. I was at the entrance of the abandoned castle and my men scouted the area. Some of the men were killed and some escaped. That foolish Brooke, I instructed him to wait till I get here before doing anything and it seems Adolf beat me to it."What are we going to do King Rufus?" One of my men asked me but I didn't respond to his foolish question immediately as all of them are retarded. If only I could find myself more reliable and skilled men who are ready to deliver.I came down from my horse and sat down on the bench in the courtyard with my men standing watching me. "Pour me wine," I told one of them. And he did. Then I slurped in my wine while they watched me. The wine helped calm my nerves down as I was about to lose my mind to frustration. I was tired from the number of disappointments I have faced so far and all thanks to my stupid ass team."Check around and see if you
