GIDEON“I thought you’d be rusty by now, but here you are, showing me why you are the Alpha,” Ethan groaned as our swords clashed against each other.We were on the training grounds, training. He had insisted I come with him since I had been too busy to do that lately.“Did you think you could ever beat me?” I didn’t hesitate any further as I knocked the sword out of his hand.A throaty laugh escaped me. “You’d have to train harder to even match me. Which is impossible anyway.”“Bragger!” I could swear I saw him roll his eyes.“Oh, that’s not bragging. It’s simply stating facts,” I chuckled.“Whatever!” He chuckled.“So…” he sighed and planted his hands on his waist, “you got the girl.”“Even when you thought it was impossible.” I retorted.“How could I have known that you were mates? You didn’t tell me. And all I was afraid of was it stirring up trouble. I was afraid the people would go against you!” he said in his defense.It did stir up trouble, with protesters demanding Daisy’s ev

DAISY“Daisy. You need to get inside, please. Get to the safe room with the women and children,” Gideon said urgently as he held my shoulders, staring into my eyes.“No. I need to stay and help fight them off,” I retorted.He shook his head vigorously. “No. Staying out here, within Gabriel’s reach, is dangerous. You are the one he wants. We cannot give him that. Go with the women and children, and you’ll be safe there.”I opened my mouth to protest, but he interrupted with a firm, “Please!”Trying to convince him would be futile. I’d help get the women and children to safety, but I wouldn’t be locked in there with them. I had the power to do something, and I wasn’t going to waste it.Gabriel would come for me. Definitely. And I was ready for him. I had the perfect plan to capture him.Tonight, he dies. Forever.“Okay,” I nodded and placed a quick kiss on his neck. “See you later. Be safe.”“I love you,” he said as he sought my lips and gave me a quick kiss.“I love you too,” I replied

DAISYI totally regretted cutting it off from his wrist down. I should have severed his entire arms!Now we were fucking back to ground zero, and that frustrated every cell within my being.“How were you going to eliminate him?” I turned to Lila. “It seems you’ve been hiding a lot from us. What’s your ulterior motive? You’re playing us, aren’t you?”“No!” she retorted rather too quickly. “You trust that man?” she pointed at his dead body.“I do not trust him. And I do not trust you either. What are your ulterior motives? Why are you helping us?”“I already told you, Daisy. I do not have ulterior motives. And I am not going back and forth with you. I am out of here!” She turned to leave.But I angrily used my magic to hold her still, rooting her to the ground.She tried to move but couldn’t.She flicked her gaze back, shock in her eyes. “How are you able to do this? I cannot break through your magic.”“What are your ulterior motives?” I growled.“Daisy,” Mother quickly chimed in, “let

DAISY “I am…” a profuse cough cut her off. “I am dying, Daisy. I need your help.” “What do you need?” I asked as I studied her. She looked really pitiful. “There’s a spell I need to cast, but I would need another witch,” she murmured. “What spell is that?” “I’ll show you…” she extended her hands for me to take. I was about to take it, but quickly withdrew my hand. “Why didn’t you contact my mom?” I asked her with narrowed eyes. Lila would’ve gone to my mom first if she needed help, not me. Something was suspicious about this. I couldn’t quite place it. She paused for a moment before coughing. “I was at her place. But… she was busy with your father. I didn’t want to disturb her, so I left.” My mom would’ve felt her presence, cloaked or not. Something was definitely fishy. Could this be the ulterior motive Gabriel had talked about? “What do you want?!” I growled, my expression shifting from pity to annoyance. “Believe me. I just need your help,” she took a step closer. “Why

DAISYWith two pack members missing, despite one of them’s criminal history, the coronation ceremony had to be postponed. Finding them and Gabriel became the top priority. We couldn’t just raid the castle; we needed a plan. So, a few people were invited to the pack to discuss strategies.Mother, Lila,, the Northern Alpha King and his Luna—Axel and Violet.Then, from the Royal Moon Pack—I, Gideon, Alpha Theron, and Ethan.We all sat around the long table in the conference room.“Gabriel is really smart and calculative. Even when cloaked, he’d be aware of our presence. I suggest the best thing to do is hit him with the element of surprise,” Alpha Axel suggested, his eyes darting between all of us.“And what would that element of surprise be?” Gideon asked with a raised brow.“Bomb the place. I am sure the witches,” Axel looked between the three witches in the room, “would be able to send some explosives.”“No!” Mother objected without hesitation. “The forbidden castle holds a major hist
