CELESTINA VILLARAMA’S POVIt’s kind of a miracle that no one was tailing us. From the very second that I stepped out of the mansion through there, I already anticipated that Alpha Lucas would be agitated as he ordered us to go back there. I heaved out a loud sigh, wiping my hands on my clothes.Ice suddenly stepped in front of me, blocking my way. “What’s wrong? Are you hurt somewhere?" He worriedly asked, attempting to grab both of my wrists, which I immediately pulled out of his reach.I shook my head as I walked past him. “It’s nothing. I just thought that the alpha would follow us around.”“Lucas? I’m certain that he knows that we’re outside the mansion now,” Ice replied, moving beside me without removing his eye contact from my face. “I can’t help but wonder why you’re suddenly acting aloof.” His voice almost couldn’t be heard as he whispered.My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I don’t know if he noticed that I couldn’t see him similarly to how I did, just because of how he appoi

CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVEven though I wanted to surrender myself to darkness and let both Ace and Ice take care of me as they see fit, I just can't let my consciousness drift away. I still don't know what kind of trial Ace wanted me to go through, but if this would actually help me out with revoking the curse, then I should just see it through to the end."I think she's not in the right condition to do whatever you're planning, Ace. If you won't let her go tonight, then I might have no other choice but to kick you out of here myself," Ice coldly muttered.My arms were lifted by Ace. He removed Ice's grip on me and let himself take control. "Your role here is done, Ice. I have no other business with you; you can leave the two of us alone now," Ace replied, wrapping both of my arms around his neck after placing me behind him.I could feel my feet being dragged away as Ace began to step forth, which was immediately stopped by Ice. "At least let me come with you if you have no intention

CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVFilled with curiosity, I still don't understand how Stella and I were related to one another, knowing that I was just involuntarily taken into this realm by the moon goddess. I was once a human; that fact was the only thing that I'm sure of, and that's also the only one that I'm holding onto now.But the possibility that I was literally born and raised in the Realm of Xenon, where werewolves and other creatures exist, was making me think twice about my whole identity. I could no longer distinguish between reality and what's not. I clearly know that I was on the verge of death when I fell from the edge of that cliff, but the memories after that scenario are all vague in my mind."If we're sisters... then you probably know me since birth, right?" I asked Stella, hoping that she'd just bow her head, but she chose to do the opposite. "You don't know anything about me? Or were you ordered by the alpha not to speak about my past?" I tried to divert the question and

CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe past few days have all felt like a dream to me. There wasn't a single minute wherein I thought that I was really breathing in this realm. Especially when I heard the truth from Ice, and now that the alpha wanted me to go back to the Crimson Moon Pack, where my mate resides and also where his enemy was. I still can't understand what's running through Lucas' mind, but one thing is for sure: he doesn't want to see me get beaten by Stella.I felt the same way when Stella and I were in a duel. Lucas wanted me to unleash all my strength just to take her down, or maybe Stella was really just unbeatable at that point."Are you sure about this, Alpha Lucas?" I asked as I held on to my own wrist. "Won't you regret this later on? I thought you didn't want anyone from your pack to abandon and betray you?" I added.Alpha Lucas nodded his head with a small smile. "Go now before I change my mind and before Stella notices that you're about to go there. I won't accompany

CELESTINA VILLARAMA’S POVWhen I first saw those ocean eyes of the alpha, I knew that he was someone to be feared. He didn’t claim the title of alpha just for fun, and he definitely was the only one deserving of that rank, which even Lucas could not reach.It has been about an hour or two since we began our search. I initially assumed that Siege would be leaving me behind, but he didn’t. Though I wanted to leave on my own and search at my own pace, he just kept on following me around. It was like he wanted to let me feel that he wouldn’t abandon me, just like Kristoffer did to him.“Why are we even finding him in the woods?” I asked him, breaking the silence between us. “Are you sure that he can be found here? What if he traveled to the opposing pack and was just looking for me?” I added to my query.“Kris isn’t an idiot. He’d never go there without my permit, and besides, he has no reason to pay you a visit,” Siege answered briefly, not batting an eye at me. “Focus on your surroundin
