Gwy's POVDevon Guillermo has a way of churning my stomach 360 degrees. His blazing blue eyes darted mine while trying to pin me on the chair.What's going on with my body? Why am I reacting so much to his words? They're just words!Wake up, Gwyneth! It's not time to find this mateless Alpha sexy and hot! Ugh!Devon's grin became wider than before. The tip of his nose touched the side of my lips. That alone sent me chills. Damn this man!"I didn't know you smell this nice..." he whispered as he went on sniffing until he reached my neck. "You smell so nice, priestess...""W-wait... Devon, I–""Are you sure we're not mates?""Shamans do really smell nice, Devon. I bathe with honey every day of my life! This is something I can l-literally explain!" I can't believe I'm shaking because of him!"Hmm... you do smell like honey..." As soon as he said that, he immediately pushed me so hard that my chair moved almost touching the window.Dang! That was approximately 7 meters away from the long
Gwy's POVI thought I knew better than anyone else since I was born a shaman. But that is a hard false now.I always know about the future at some point. I always know about good directions. But now, it felt like I was totally lost.Who would have thought that I, a generic shaman whose fate is to be alone forever, be entangled with an arrogant Alpha? And now, this flirty Alpha of Fountain Pack is here to rescue me. I must be really cursed."A-Alpha Qirak?!""Don't worry, my dear Gwyneth. I will make sure to take you back," Alpha Qirak assured me."Who the hell are you? Why did you trespass on my pack?!" Suddenly, Alpha Devon appeared with his cold stare."I am Alpha Qirak of the Fountain Pack. I am here to take back Gwyneth Hathaway," Qirak confidently answered."I refuse! You will not take her back. She's mine!""Alpha Devon, you know that we have a courtesy, right? You cannot take her unless we approve!""Nonsense! That woman is my mate!"Alpha Qirak suddenly laughed. He was touchin
Gwy's POVAfter Devon left me inside his chamber, I started to focus on my mind.I closed my eyes and started to summon the small light. It burst before my eyes and then I was transported to Shaman Temple spiritually."I need to find Cloud and Ephy. Where are they?" I whispered as my soul freely traveled inside the Shaman Temple.There, I saw Epiphany crying inside her room. I sighed and shook my head. She must be so hurt that I didn't accept Alpha Qirak's offer to come back."I'm so sorry, Ephy. I need to be here so that I can save both of you and the temple..." I said even though I knew she wouldn't hear me just yet. Ephy still has a long way to go before she can master the ability to talk to astral souls like me.After looking after Ephy, I resumed finding Cloud. There, I saw him inside the main hall where the large altar of the moon goddess is located. He was doing a lot of kneeling and reparations. He must be so desperate to get me back.Cloud is always a good and responsible guy
Gwy's POV"I understand that she is your destined mate, but why choose her instead of rejecting her?" Margaux started bluntly. Her face showed disgust over the topic... me."She's too weak and utterly suspicious! What if Fountain Pack has plans against us? What if they ask her something that will harm Black Dew Pack?" she added."I don't want to be biased, but I think our Beta-female is right. We don't know this lady. And from what we heard, she practices witchcraft. That is against our code in the Black Dew Pack. And we need to seriously take this matter given that we have a lot of enemies around," Den, the bodyguard seconded."A witch?" Margaux smirked and eyed me in my seat. "I'm not surprised why you're so proactive in accepting her, Alpha Devon. She must have bewitched you! I must say... I'm impressed! If Delta Den's claim is true then she must be executed quickly!"Some of the council members also barked the same sentiments. I'm a bit annoyed at how they fought about me being he
Gwy's POVFlashes of scenes rapidly entered my consciousness. It came from a shallow ball of light that I always see as a shaman.These images don't mean a thing to me. They always flash in my mind whenever I am in a deep slumber. But now... everything seems to be connected. I just don't know how it does, but in my recent death moment, I knew this thing would eventually come to me again.Death.I gasped for air. The sound of swarming began to hurdle in my ears. But I cannot move. My head is turning to the dim sky."G-Grace? Grace, where are you?" I suddenly felt alone. My wolf is nowhere to be found. My tears trickle down my cheeks as I shiver.That was when I realized I was in the middle of the sea. The sea of blood."W-what's happening? What's this? Help! Help!" I cried but to no avail. No one was here.Suddenly, I felt many hands touching my arms. Now, they found their way to my chin and neck. I tried to swim away but I couldn't. These hands were too strong.What's happening?"Let
Gwy's POVI had no choice but to carry Devon to the tiled floor.He was still trembling in so much pain. I abruptly wiped his whole body. As the drips of water from his body disappeared, so as the flames that surrounded him. But that didn't even mend his suffering. He was still gnashing his teeth in terror.I sobbed while drying him up. "This is all my fault! Devon... I'm so sorry!""W-what did you do to me?" he asked, still in pain."It's my fault! I will let you punish me after this. But please let me help you...""G-Gwy..." He held my shoulder while trembling. "Damn you!""I'll help you, I promise! But we need to go to your room now.""What will you do? Are you going to kill me?"I shook my head. "No! I won't. Please, if I don't put you in your room, everyone will see you in this state!""H-how can I trust you?" Devon grunted in pain as the invisible flame engulfed his whole body."I will take it away. I know a way.""T-tell me... Fucking tell me!"I closed my eyes and quickly gave
Gwy's POVAfter that day, Alpha Devon stopped bothering me for a while. I don't know what to feel, but my spirit is low today.Deena appeared before me with her smiley face. "Miss Hathaway! It's time to take a tour of the whole pack. Alpha Devon ordered me to accompany you. He said that you have to learn for you to formally take over the Luna position," she informed me proactively."Where is he?""Alpha is now working in his office. He's busy during weekdays and sometimes he doesn't go home.""H-he doesn't go home? Then, what about me?" I pointed at myself. Is he going to abandon me here all by myself? Ha! I can't believe him!"Don't worry, Miss Hathaway, Alpha made sure you will be safe with me while he's gone.""I'm not so sure of that Deena. You saw the way that Latina bitch talked to me the other day? She'll do that again now that Devon is not around!" It's not that I'm afraid of that Latina bitch. It's just that she might give me that disgusted stare and all the get-the-hell-out-
Gwy's POVAfter a long day, I headed back on my way to my room.I shouldn't be curious about Devon's family, especially his father, Diether Guillermo, but the way he acted earlier seemed suspicious. He seemed too nice. Too good to be true kinda stuff. But what should I do? I have to figure out something to get the hell out of here. I can't keep on playing Devon's game. I have to do something. Or else I won't be able to find my way back to my temple.My mind was drifting away with these thoughts and suddenly a pair of shoes was in front of me."What are you doing out here in the middle of the night?" Devon asked. His rugged manly physique greeted me with awe. I blinked twice. "Where's Deena?""D-Devon? What are you doing here? I thought you'd spend the night at your office," I asked, a bit fazed.He looked at me with a smug on his face and put his hands on his side pockets. "Answer me first.""W-well... I didn't wanna waste my time inside my room so I took time getting to know Black De
