Celia

I lay on the bed in a crumpled heap of limbs when I heard the softest whisper. It was the voice I would never forget.

“Celia”

It came again. I struggled to get up from the bed, to open my eyes that were sewn shut for I did not want to miss the chance of seeing that face again.

“Celia”

I forced my body using the little strength I had to open my eyes which were already moist. I don’t think I had stopped crying since I returned to my room and somehow fell asleep.

“Mom,” I whispered.

  • The Lycan's Obsession   Author's note

    To all my lovely readers, I cannot thank you enough for staying with me on this wild roller coaster of emotions until the end. You cannot pick a favorite child but writing this book was magical, simply because, I got so many of you who were invested to read. I sincerely hope I've improved as a writer when compared to my old books and continue to write stories that touch your hearts. Last year was especially tough for me with fighting depression and a few other issues that I do not want to make public. Some of you loved the story, others not so much. But I want to thank every single one of you for giving this story and this author a chance. If my story managed to provide a temporary escape from reality or simply added a sprinkle of joy to your day, then my mission as a writer is complete. And to those who patiently endured the plot twists – I promise, I only did it because I love you all. Okay, maybe that is not the complete truth. Perhaps there was a hint of mischief in the twis

  • The Lycan's Obsession   Chapter 248

    JasperI turned my head to look at her from a distance. I could see the nervousness in her gaze, in her body language.My gaze flicked to the guests, all of whom were looking at her.She cleared her throat, “Today is going to be a big day of my life. But before I take that step…I…I wanted to tell you all something.”Her gaze found mine and I only smiled at her. Before she could speak another word, one of the many people in the crowd placed a hand on his chest and bowed down to her.Celia was stunned and watched him In surprise. Behind her, Nymeria, Xenos, and Vasil were slowly descending the stairs too.Following the first person, a few more did the same- place a hand on their chest, their heart to be precise, and bowed to her, going down on one knee.“What is going on?” She asked In a low voice.Soon, everybody followed suit. In a matter of minutes, the entire crowd was on its knees, bowing to her.Her eyes flicked to me and I too did the same gesture.Placing my hand on my heart, I w

  • The Lycan's Obsession   Chapter 247

    JasperI cleared my throat and looked down at the crowd of people who had come to witness the wedding. There had been no happy event or celebration in the palace after my birth.That day had been a day of celebration but Isadora had turned it into a nightmare. And after all those years, finally, we were having a moment to rejoice.But as I watched the hopeful eyes of the people surrounding me, I could not shake the uneasy feeling gnawing at me.I had to get rid of it. And the only way to do that was to be honest.For a confused moment, I stood on the stairs, looking at the excited faces of the people around me.My gaze flicked to my father and brothers, all of whom were smiling proudly at me.“Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention please?” I asked in a loud voice, turning even those heads that had been momentarily distracted while looking at the grandeur of the palace.“First of all, I would like to thank you all for being present today. Frankly, I did not expect so many of

    JasperThe huge room suddenly felt too small and the air in the world did not seem enough to fill my lungs.Celia had spoken something, but I was too busy staring at her.My heartbeat was roaring in my ears as I took in her beauty that shone radiantly, nothing short of a thousand lanterns.Her face looked distraught and her eyes were red, her cheeks puffed up. Her makeup had smeared a little too.But despite that, she looked like an angel. A Goddess.I had only seen her in her usual gowns and training clothes, but this marvel…this was just for me.For a minute, I simply stood in front of her, drinking her features. How could she be so blissfully ignorant of what she was doing to me by just standing there in that beautiful dress?I took a step forward, and I saw a tear trickle down her eye.“Shh, don’t cry,” I said softly, reaching for her face and cupping it. And when I did, a surge of electricity rippled through me.My Lycan roared in my head, feeling exhilarated to see her all dolle

  • The Lycan's Obsession   Chapter 245

    CeliaDread settled in my heart when Xenos and Nymeria revealed my life’s biggest secret. My whole life had been a lie?But then what about the people I grew up with thinking they were my parents?Nothing made sense anymore, and I only stared blankly at Xenos.“Is…is that true?”I asked, and he nodded. “There is a reason I never found the courage to tell you all of this earlier. And to be sure that I was not guessing it all wrong, I asked Nymeria to allow me to show her that memory, too. I touched her and with her permission, I looked through her memories…childhood memories, to be specific. There was no trace of me or Isadora in it.”My heart felt like it would break into a million pieces.“But then, how could I never do magic? I never sensed it and…and then why was I not able to fight her when she…she killed me?”I was sobbing hysterically and Nymeria’s face looked like she was cursing herself for ruining my day.She apologized over a thousand times that she did not want me to learn

    Celia "Are you going to tell her, or should I?" Nymeria's question hung in the air like a storm cloud, casting a palpable tension in the room. I looked from Nymeria to Xenos, confusion and a growing sense of foreboding twisting in my chest. Their solemn expressions conveyed that something grave was afoot. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, my heart beginning to race. "Tell me what?" I pressed, my voice laced with unease. Xenos, usually a man of few words, hesitated for a moment. His eyes held mine for a second longer than I expected, and I could see a mix of guilt and apprehension in them. He opened his mouth to speak but closed it again, the weight of his unspoken words lingering in the room. Nymeria, her expression torn between sympathy and responsibility, finally broke the silence. "Celia, there's something you need to know." I felt a shiver crawl down my spine. The room, once filled with warmth and camaraderie, had now become suffocating with uncertainty. My thoughts raced as

    CeliaWhen I woke up the next morning, I expected to be lying in the bed alone. But I felt the warm embrace of Jasper and lazily shifted in bed.My eyes felt heavy and I tried to open them to some extent. I saw the blurred outlines of the window and the curtain that was fluttering in the wind.Jasper’s

    CeliaWhile wondering about Matron’s words, I reached the basement to kill time. There was still some time for Grace’s daily visit down the dungeons.I went down towards the basement and the guards greeted me politely before letting me in. And when I went inside, I saw Vasil staring outside the window

    NymeriaVasil was smiling at me, and I could not help but keep staring at him. He was unlike Jasper, who always fascinated me.Somehow, I would always look for similarities with any man that my father brought inside the palace for me to meet.Jasper was blunt and straightforward while also being massiv

    Jasper Nymeria finally came running towards us before I would yell her name the third time. She was panting for breath and clutching her chest while sweat glistened on her forehead. “The entire kingdom must have heard you by now” She said, while taking a few breaths to calm herself down. But before
