LOGINSERAPHINA~~“Everyone! Look who is finally here!” Remi announced the second the entrance door shut behind us. The echoes of Remi’s cheerful voice bounced off the high, familiar ceilings, but the warmth in her tone did nothing to stop the icy dread spreading through my veins.The room went completely still. At least it did for me. The soft clinking of teacups and the low murmur of conversation vanished, replaced by a suffocating silence. My eyes darted across the lavish living room, instinctively bypassing the expensive furniture and the familiar paintings that used to haunt my childhood dreams, instantly locking on the fireplace.There they were.Elara. Rolan. Ethan… every member of the Ashford family… And my daughter was there too, sitting between Elara and Rolan until she saw me. “Mama… Mama…” Celeste screamed, jumping off the couch. She ran straight to me, jumping into my arms without a single fear of falling on her face. I caught her against my chest, burying my face in h
SERAPHINA~~My legs carried me faster and farther than I thought. It was as if I were subconsciously trying to put enough distance between Rexton and me.Before I got here, I thought I had seen him at his worst and that he had gone as low as possible by kidnapping my daughter, but that man had once again proven me wrong. He is really unbelievable… He stole, schemed, and even tried to physically subdue me.Unfortunately for him, he had underestimated my physical strength and overestimated the power of the potion Nicola and I made… otherwise, I would have been truly stuck here… I would be helpless. “Does that mean we can leave now?” Kia asked me, her fur itching just as my own skin did. I nodded without a single doubt. “Yes, I just have to get Celeste back.” At that point, I was convinced I truly didn’t need Kieran to come here. I also didn’t see the need for the warriors Jesse was leading to the Crimson Moon Pack. I believed I could take my daughter and leave. And Kia supporte
SERAPHINA~~“What the hell?” Kia exclaimed within me, her already burning rage erupting like lava. “Isn’t that the potion made with your blood?” It was. Rexton clearly kept some for himself even after everyone trusted him. Nicola, Damon, myself, and every warrior who fought against the rebels.He still showed his true self despite having our trust handed to him on a silver platter. He showed that he was and would always be a backstabbing son of a bitch!“Then I will kill you, bastard.”I seethed, the hatred in my heart towards him growing fatter and taller by the second. But so did Rexton. He rose to his feet as if he hadn’t been whimpering a few seconds ago, and his scent changed, announcing the stolen power boost he had acquired.“You can try but–” “There’s no 'but,' Rexton. You are going down today, and I will put an end to all of your madness.” I cut him off confidently, bracing myself for the long-overdue fight between Rexton and me. He smirked at me, the potion circulatin
ALPHA REXTON~~I was no fool. I knew Seraphina repeating herself meant trouble, and I was smart enough to know that she was stronger than me in so many ways. If we were to fight, she would win without having to lift a finger. So yes, I was no fool, which was why I had a plan… one that would ensure she stayed willingly or forcefully. I didn’t need to match her punch for punch; I just needed to outmaneuver her.“And as I have said, Sera, I’m not letting either of you leave me again! You belong with me. You and Celeste are my family and—" Before I could finish that statement, Seraphina was already in front of me, her aura flaring so intensely I felt my lungs closing. My first instinct was to protect my airways, but Seraphina beat me to that, moving too suddenly for my werewolf senses. Her fingers soon curled tightly around my throat, and in a fraction of a second, my feet moved off the floor even though I was naturally taller than she was. I clawed at her wrist, my fingers dig
SERAPHINA~~“Don’t yell at my Mama.” Celeste blurted before I could think of the right words to say to Rexton, who was gradually becoming agitated. Her tiny voice caused Rexton to freeze, his jaw tightening as his dark eyes snapped down to the little girl standing defiantly at my side. The sheer audacity of a pup interrupting an Alpha was enough to make the air in the room turn heavy, but Celeste didn't even blink. She just gripped my hand tighter, her tiny shoulders squared.“Go upstairs, Celeste. Your Mom and I have to talk.” Rexton muttered, his balled fists expressing the control he was hanging on to. But Celeste wasn’t making it any easier for him. In fact, she shook her head. “No.” Then she fired, her voice ringing through the living room. “I won’t let you keep hurting my Mama. She didn’t want to be here, but you made her come by bringing me here.” My daughter’s vocabulary might be limited, but she expressed herself through her tone and aura. I could feel how much she h
SERAPHINA~~Dread. The familiar dread I had lived with for many years while staying in Crimson Moon Pack settled over me the second I stepped out of my car, obeying the timid guards.I wasn’t scared. I mean, I knew none of them could truly hurt me even if they tried. But there was this sickening feeling that ripped through my memories, nearly pulling me back to the past… turning me into the person I used to be while everything I was revolved around Rexton. But I masked that feeling, walking over to the truck that had been parked at the border. “Alpha Rexton has ordered that security be tightened around the border. Ensure no one comes into the pack or leaves!” The guard that seemed to be in charge announced, commanding the rest to take position as I slipped into the truck. “We should warn Kieran. They are really prepared.” Kia started with concern. But I knew very well that Kieran would be just fine, which was why I didn’t worry a bit when I couldn’t feel him through the new b
DAHLIA’S POV~~I stared at the woman standing before me, and for the first time in years, I felt the cold prickle of genuine terror.She wasn’t supposed to be back. She was never meant to return, yet there she was, staring at me like I was nothing but a helpless fly she could stomp on if she wa
SERAPHINA~~“There’s no way.”I couldn’t stop uttering those words under my breath. Not even when I sat at the long glass table to dine with the three people whose words and world have stunned me speechless. I stared at the lavish spread of food—delicacies I hadn’t seen all my life—but my stoma
SERAPHINA~~“Don’t answer his call.” Kia growled at the back of my mind as I stared at my phone’s screen.One second, I got a text from him, and the next, a call from him, like he had become an impatient puppy. Although I haven’t opened the text, I couldn’t just ignore his call. Not when he st
SERAPHINA~~The last thing I remember was the suffocating weight of the strong aura and the darkness pulling me under. But when my eyes fluttered open, the world was moving fast, yet steadily.I was lying on my back. On a plush leather seat, inside a spacious luxury car. The engine hummed silent
