All Chapters of Veil Of Destiny: Chapter 61 - Chapter 69

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

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

Leo's POV The guard has been gone for two days now and yet, there was still no sign of him. I needed to know what was going on as the suspense was killing me, still I couldn't tell anyone, not even Sophia of the step that I had taken. This was my battle and I was not going to drag any other person into it. "You look like you have a lot on your mind. Want to share?" She asked me but I shook my head. "I'm fine. I've just had a lot to think about in the past few days. Why are you here?" I asked her, knowing that she never came to my study unless she wanted something. "I want to go to my people. For a while. My mom has been really worried. I have a feeling that she has heard what is going on in the pack here, especially seeing that the last victim had died in my stead" she explained and I pointed at the seat in front of me. "You really think I am going to put your life in danger?" I asked her. "Of course not, I know you will do everything within your power to protect me, I'm only sc

Elijah's POV "What the bloody hell man? That's her maid. Do you not have a bit of self-control in you anymore?" I bellowed at Nathan as he stood there smirking satisfactorily at me. "She wanted even more than I did, and I mean, the lad isn't a kid. She knew what she wanted and she came right for it." He said to me, not a single trace of remorse in his voice. "And you couldn't say no? What if Maria actually liked you? Have you considered what this would mean? Because that girl told Maria that she had found her mate, happily announced it to her and I was right there" I said, dragging a tired hand through my hair."Why are you so upset about what a maid does? Don't tell me that you also wanted the same thing I did. Alexia carried the rich scent of Maria with her and forgive me, I couldn't resist that sweet scent, no matter how forbidden it is" he said and sat down right in front of me, his eyes glued to mine as if daring me to see what I would do. "You don't love her at all. You are

Leo's POV The dreams were becoming a daily occurrence now, every night, I was plagued by the awareness that there was something out there whose destiny was to kill me. Getting a seer had not helped too as the only thing it had done was to increase my anxiety. Bravery was a fallacy when you didn't know what exactly was coming for you. I paced on my balcony, a place that has become my solace in the past few days. Sophia was continuously nagging me about what the seer had said but I couldn't tell her, I didn't feel the need to let her know the inner turmoil that was going on inside of me. The council has spoken to me about the curb of attacks caused by the ghost hunters. It was a relief, a bright light in the darkness that has enshrined me in its cocoon since the nightmares began. Each time, I worked up enough courage to fight the silver wolf, it defeated me like I was nothing, rendering me powerless with wounds like a common soldier in battle. The fear I felt each time deepened by th
