Ellia POV I rushed to Cassien’s side at once— He let out a couple of sharp coughs enough to even cough his own guts..then he tried to shrug it off like it literally didn’t happen… “I’m fine.. I’m fine…” “No you’re not!” My tone was sharp and firm. Gosh… don't even get tired sometimes of putting up that strong and cold front.He was so infuriating. He tried to guide himself to a full straight posture then…”I said, I’m fine.” “You coughed out blood Cassien!” I shot back sharply. “So?” He took some steps away, his movement wobbly still… “So?” I repeated, my tone bitter. “You’re not okay. You need a doctor—“ 

Ellia POV Well…that happened. The moment we pulled from the kiss it was like poison in our lips. We didn’t say a word for the rest of the night til we slept and when morning came…that awkwardness still lingered around— “Good morning..” I managed to greet, my voice small. Cassien was up and dressed already— “Morning.” That was it. Neither of us acknowledged what happened last night…we didn’t want to. The silence became a physical thing itself and I couldn’t bear it anymore so I took the first and bold step. “Last night, I—“ “It was a mistake.” Cassien cut in coldly. “It shouldn’t have happened.”The words hit me hard— But I was forced to reply

Chapter 36 Cassien POV We stared at the two lockets lined up on the table— How the hell did this happen?! “Someone broke in…” Ellia walked back a bit. “Apparently…but whoever it was..it probably had the chance to steal ours..instead it gave us his.” That was disturbing… What was also disturbing was the fact that he slipped past the guards outside without notice…that he broke in here and could have done damage here if he wanted and I didn’t spot it— And then…what was his or her motive?! How did this person find the moon key?!Why give it to us? There were so many questions and little answers to them… “This is a good thing!” Ellia’s tone went up. &ldq

Ellia POV I took in one large breath and then stepped foward into the temple… Darkness swallowed me at first…then “ELLIA ESTRADA” A deep and loud voice called out from the darknes and immediately, green light began to blow up from every corner of the room… “Welcome to the Temple of the First Moon.” The voice came again… Then suddenly a single door appeared in front of me. I moved to open it, but an invisible forcefulness blocked me off. “To enter the door…answer one question.” One question right? Not so bad… Then it came.“Why do you come here?!” I gave myself at the max a couple of minutes to think before I spoke—“To re

Ellia POVA swarm of guards lined up in front of us the moment we stepped out into the open—“Ellia Estrada. We wish not to fight you…” one of them stepped forward to us.“Then allow us to go. Your Alpha is making a grave mistake and we need to stop him.”The guard looked very much conflicted… he knew the right thing to do and still, he knew he couldn’t disobey his master.I took one more step forward, my eyes on him..”please…let us through..”The guard then glanced around the yard and his other men. Then he sighed…“Fine.”He stepped to the side, giving us a freeway. “Thank you.”He nodded as myself and Cassien walked through…The moment we were out of the pack gates, we went full speed ahead, tracking down Magnus’ scent.Magnus POVI rode with my horse as fast as I could go—
