VIVIANADays passed by quickly. I had recalled most of the faded bits of that bizarre evening. The Mark on my back was a constant reminder. It never let me forget the happenings. Not even for a single fraction.Alaric was adamant about not letting me go to the Blood Wind Valley of the Witches. As if I could escape his watch. He made Baspo cling to me all the time. And mentioning Baspo, the heavy build-up, muscular man was a sight to the eyes. Handsome! It was an understatement.His sparkling blue eyes complemented his somewhat dark-toned skin. He was always dressed in a full suit, as if ready for a meeting. I guess he likes it. His frame was huge. Perfect for a wrestler. I wondered if he was!“Baspo! What do you know about the Blood Wind Valley?” I asked him a few days ago. My departure was scheduled to be today, but I ended up staying here. I didn’t have the heart to leave Gianna. She was such a cute thing. She so badly insisted on me t

VIVIANAEvening washed down. I kept laying there on the bed. The warmth of evening spread in the room through the slightly open windows. I stretched myself.Oh shit! It hurt. It hurt so much. I cursed Alaric. He bit me all over the place. I ran my arms across the bed. He was gone! I got up lazily with an aching body. My eyes traveled to the open window. It was already evening. What time could it be? 7 or 8 p.m.?Realization hit me hard. Oh crap! I dragged my ass fastly and freshened up. I slipped into the peach flair knee-length frock and kept my hair loose. I applied a nude lipstick and scanned my face.“Hmph! This after-sex glow is far better than make-up!” I grinned to myself and left the room to search for Alaric. So many things had to be done. And he was not even here. Even after fucking me like an animal. Where the hell he was!“Oh! There you are. Did you rest well, my child?” I halted. My steps got frozen. I turned ar

VIVIANA“What was that?”“How did it happen?”“Are you a healer, a magician?”“Are you even a werewolf?”“Don’t tell me you know witchcraft, sisi?”Ahh! My head hurts. Alaric, Ashton, Gianna, James, and his mate all surrounded me, stared at me, and blabbered those questions, I had no answers to. I defensively covered my ears.After that little stunt, I felt lethargic. Out of energy. Drained. Exhausted. This feeling was new. Something foreign. I never experienced it before.Everyone was curious. They had questions. Questions about how did I heal the old man? I had the same. I was curious. Frightened, to be precise. What would Alaric be thinking about me?“I am not a witch,” I murmured with my eyes drooping down. I was tearing up. Fucking tears! Why? I didn’t do anything wrong.Alaric engulfed me in his arms holding me softly, yet pr

VIVIANA“Are you certain, Luna?” Came the stammering words from Noah. Was he having a hard time? I nodded blankly, not knowing why he asked me such a question. I didn’t smile this time. It would add to his lame doubts only.“Why? Can’t you even do that, Noah?” I narrowed my eyes at him.He looked at me with a strange expression. He needed some time to gulp this all.“I- I will get it done, Luna,” Noah said and ran away. I was in my thoughts. I had to confront Mr. Garter. There was much more to him than just a feeling I had in the pit of my core. And I, Viviana Miracle, was going to find that.“You want me to sniff him?” Miracle sounded thrilled. I rolled my eyes at her. When was she not? It was once in a lifetime opportunity for her. How could she let it slip from her paws?“Yeah! Noah dodged my humble request with his mannerism. So, I guess we are on our own. But…. Let

ALARIC Viviana had me whipped with her puppy-eyed look. I couldn’t deny anything she said. I had to let her wander on the premises of The Samara. But I was restless. Moon had been trying to calm me down, but I was over the edge.“Moon, you can link with Miracle, right? Connect with her and ask about Viviana’s whereabouts.” I almost ordered Moon. He sighed in the back of my mind.I wasted nearly an hour pacing back and forth in the pack office. Noah had been to Goddess knows where! That brat! He always sneaked around in times of need. I rubbed my palms and waited for Moon to reach Miracle.He growled after a few seconds. Those seconds passed like years.“I tried. But Miracle is out of reach.” Moon mumbled in a low incoherent voice.“What do you mean? You can’t reach Miracle? But you marked her, and she did too. Why can’t you reach her?&rdquo
