Maria's POV

"Maria, wake up!" I heard a harsh voice call my name. I nearly peed my pants, fearing that it was time and I was finally going to get punished for breaking Alpha Felix's nose.

Sophie sat up in her bed, her face etched in concern for my safety but I knew I didn't have a choice, and not even the moon goddess could save me now.

"Go," she whispered, "May the moon goddess be with you," Sophie said, shaking her head sadly at me.

"He is definitely going to kill me," I said to her, my voice trembling in fear.

"I really don't know. I am hoping that he doesn't." She whispered.

"Maria! Are you deaf? I said wake up. The Alpha has requested for you. Since you have decided to test your combat skills, you will have to pay for the consequences of it now." The head maid yelled at me from the door.

I didn't need any further prompting, not wanting to worsen my situation any worse than it already was. I jumped off the bed and ran around the room, picking my clothes and throwing m

  • Veil Of Destiny   64: To the Wind

    Leo's POV There was obviously a problem and it was now more evident than ever that this was a large-scale plan against my leadership. Three people have all died, people connected to the palace in the last few days and tensions were beginning to grow amongst the people. I also could not explain the dreams that I was having. "Have you checked on the lady?" I asked the nurses, as they had been going in and out of Sophia's room. She had passed out after seeing the body of her dear maid. I understood her pain, knowing how much she had loved Arya. I couldn't exactly pinpoint why the servants in the palace were being targeted by this killer."Yes, my king. She is stabilized now, you can go in and see her" the head nurse said to me just as she stepped out and closed the door gently behind her. I gave her a nod and made my way to the bedroom, where I saw that Sophia was sitting forlornly on her chair on the balcony, staring at nothing in particular. I went to her and gently held her but she

  • Veil Of Destiny   63: Eight Minutes Forward

    Maria's POV "I don't think you are all that. You are a nice man" I said and even to me, the words tasted like chalk in my mouth and sounded like absolute trash. We both knew I was lying and he smiled at me. "You are an interesting character. Every time we talk, I feel like I want to know more about you. I have asked Elijah and Elvira, but they neither divulge anything. It makes you seem mysterious even though you carry a very simple persona." He said and I laughed. "Describing me as mysterious is weird. I'm just a simple woman. You can almost read me like a book" I said and he held his sides and laughed. I wondered what I had said that was so funny. The evening breeze blew my shirt and I felt my chest become exposed. Quickly, I grabbed the veil I had used to cover my head so I could avoid being seen by everyone. We were now under a tree, somewhere close to the palace, I could see that he wanted to go to the palace from all indications but I was avoiding His twin sister. "What's t

  • Veil Of Destiny   62: The  Admirer

    Maria's POV "Girl, it has never been this hard coming to the clinic. Why is it so packed full today?" I asked Maria, seeing that the clinic was filled to the brim. It had only been two weeks since I had last been there, and at the time, it looked like the women were all allergic to it. Now, it looked like it was all they needed to survive, mostly the women. "Nathan." She simply said, looking quite frustrated herself. "What's wrong with him?" I asked her. "Are you serious? I have had about twenty women come here today and rained brimstones because their files were in front of me. They insisted that they had specifically asked for Nathan and that is who they should get." She said, looking quite exhausted with the whole situation going on around her. "Where is he though?" I asked her and she shook her head. "I don't really know and I don't care. I'll soon leave the hospital to attend to other things. Do you want to come with me? It's at the palace." She said and I immediately shook

  • Veil Of Destiny   61: A Jump in Time

    Leo's POV "Who are you?" I demanded from the shimmering figure in front of me. A silver wolf, even in the dead of the night, the wolf illuminated everywhere so brightly that it looked like day. For the first time in my life, I felt what raw fear felt like. This wolf wasn't scared of me, to it I wasn't the dreaded Alpha King, I was simply a werewolf standing in his majestic presence. "You are unworthy and I have come to end you" he responded. "Why?" I demanded, even though my voice lacked the brazenness that it would usually have. "Your unworthiness has stemmed from your love interests. If allowed, you will bring an end to all the wolves. You must die!" The wolf said and suddenly lunged at me. We wrestled but I was no match for him, no matter how hard I tried too, I couldn't seem to find my wolf form to shift into. He had the upper hand and soon my whole body was filled with wounds. The wolf shone brighter with each cut on my body and I had to shield my face with my hands. "You

  • Veil Of Destiny   60: Days of Torture

    Sophia's POV "Mom, it is important that you do what I have asked. It is the only way I will get out of this" I begged my mom, looking around frantically to ensure that no one else was watching this time around. "Fine. But you have to learn to do things better from now on. I can't make progress with this if I have to keep checking in on you all the time. Keep your emotions in check; this is something bigger than you, " she said and pulled back, disappearing into the night. "Okay," I muttered to myself even though she was already gone. One more dead body in place and I would have been totally cut clear of any ties with what is happening in the palace. It got harder by the day and with so many distractions around, I could barely hold it together in front of Leo. "I've been looking for you everywhere. The guards said you were here" Leo's voice broke into my thoughts as I jumped, nearly falling off the balcony. "Yeah. I came here to get some air. You have been busy and I didn't want

  • Veil Of Destiny   59: Nowhere to Hide

    Maria's POV "You don't look pleased. Did Nathan say something to offend you?" Elijah asked me as soon as we were alone. "No, he didn't do anything wrong. I just wanted to retire for the night" I lied and sat down in the living room. "That's a lie and we both know it. You don't have anything to do tomorrow, you are avoiding someone and I'm sure as hell it isn't Elvira or me" he said and I smiled. "Why do you always have to be so critical of everything?" I asked him and he smiled, smoothening my hair with the back of his hand."Because I deeply care for you..." He started to say but stopped when Alexia appeared in the living room and went back to her room. She had obviously not expected to see us there. "It's shocking you know," I said and he straightened up in the chair. "What is?" He asked me. "Nathan being Elizabeth's twin. I can't imagine him not hating you especially since you didn't return Elizabeth's affection" I said to him and he laughed. "He is not as emotional as his
