AriaMy eyes slowly opened, adjusting to the brightness of wherever I was. I looked up, and saw a high ceiling, beautifully decorated which seemed quite familiar. I looked around, and for a moment it seemed I had a temporary memory loss before it dawned on me. I was still in Avarish, and this was the room I shared with Lucian.As if on cue, I recalled everything. From running off to the stable, to climbing the deranged horse that nearly killed me. I remembered seeing my life flash before me, shutting my eyes and praying to the goddess. I remember the horse going still and turning to stone, and the strange gazes I received from the men, Riven, Varaeys and Kaiden!The most prominent scene was Kaiden carrying me like I weigh nothing. And the last thing I remembered, the world turned black and here I was.I sat up immediately, and it was then I noticed I wasn't alone. There was a chair beside the bed, and in it sat the sleeping Kaiden. I sucked in my breath as my eyes trailed from his shu

“Move girl, move.” A gruff man yelled, raising his whip and hitting a young girl chained alongside a group of other children.I watched in horror as I rushed towards him with the intention to stop him from hitting the children, but my hands went past him. I tried several times but still got the same result.A gasp escaped my lips as I took a step backwards, staring at my hands. A while ago, I was with Kaiden and now I'm in this unknown place. I was sure the man couldn't see me.Or…was I dead? Had the physician’s words truly come to pass?I looked around me. This place was like a market place. There were stalls, with men and women trying to entice the rich looking people that passed the roads. The jingling of coins, the ringing of bells, the flapping of wings that emanated from caged birds and the smell of something rotten all bombarded me at the same time.If I was dead, this was certainly not heaven. It had to be hell…or not. A group of children who looked nothing more than seven or

KaidenWe safely reached the pack surprisingly. With all that had been going on, if we were attacked it wouldn't come as a surprise to me. Even though Varaeys had done his best to keep everything hidden, I knew there were some people who would still get information.Aria had immediately gone to her room the moment we arrived. Meanwhile, I toured round, checking if Piper had caused mayhem. Everything seemed fine, people were living well and there had been no attacks since my absence.More importantly and very strange, Piper hadn't attacked. The elders called for a meeting, and I knew it probably had to do with something Piper must have told them.“Everything seems unusually calm.” Riven said, “and I wonder if it has anything to do with Piper. What's she up to? I couldn't even perceived her scent anywhere.”“If you were to come across those men who attacked you, would you recognise them?” I asked.“I…doubt it. Frankly, I don't even remember what they smell like. But I remember them in m

AriaI cursed underneath my breath, I shouldn't have said that. I was sure it hit a nerve, but Kaiden's face betrayed no emotions as he still maintained that expressionless look with a cunning smile.“Are you sure you would like that, over your dead body?” He raised a brow, “You wouldn't have much use if you were dead. Unless, I’d somehow find your ancestors, and get something in exchange for your corpse.”My jaw dropped as I watched him speak of my death again, the second time so casually. The first time he did that was back at Avarish, and now he was at it again.“Why do I feel like you really want me dead?” I crossed my arms.“I'm innocent here.” Kaiden raised both hands, “You were the one who mentioned that there was no way I’d mark you if you weren't dead. You said, and I quote ‘over your dead body.’”I sighed, it was pointless arguing with him as he seemed he would always win either way. But a day would surely come, and victory shall be mine. My body tingled with excitement at t

Kaiden My uncle had always told tales of how it is said that the Venegans, possess a great deal of power that could literally do anything. Some had powers that focused only on one thing, whilst the brutal ones had numerous powers. The Darkhaven family belonged to a long blood line of blood sucker werewolves. My father Jace Darkhaven had been able to guide this secret for many years before he was killed in the war. Well, it wasn't quite much of a secret.During the time of the war after my father had been labelled a traitor and declared a rogue, Jaime was nowhere to be found. It was said that he was out with one of his lovers. “And how are you going to get one? The last time I checked, they were wiped out during Clarke's madness.” Jaime believed that too, but for him to mention a Venegan as the solution to his aging, he must have definitely caught a whiff of something.“I have lived for many years, even before your mother was born. I have crossed paths with the Venegans, or should
