Once Kruz had left me on Conrad's door, I heard his loud grunt to let me know that I was invited in. I entered the room and was quickly mortified to see him in his boxers only. He didn't flinch but I was scared for my life. I had already seen his abs even when I had shut my eyes down the instant I realized he was shirtless.
I hurriedly turned my face down and gulped. What were his intentions?"Lock the door." He ordered very calmly. My body had begun to feel numb in terror. I had been sheltered from the outside world since I was a child, they always told me that I was supposed to be protected because I was their last hope. Now that I was in a room with an Alpha, whose mood swings had no limits, I felt like being betrayed by the entire world.I did what he said and soon we were alone in a locked room. The only lights were the white led's around the roof."You blew up such a big chance." He stated, it didn't seem like he aimed to wear a shirt anytime soon. He was standing in front of the mirror to comb his wet hair. I could see the muscles in his back and the abs in the mirror.People had said a lot of things about how handsome he was, and even though I was in a very bad situation, I could still agree with them."You either put others before you or you are just naive." him dropping the brush on the dressing table startled me and I bet he noticed it too, "And very scared." He declared, taking steps closer to me."You have really not learned from your previous experience with your coven when they ditched you?" he tilted his face and once noticed that I had drowned my face down, he hunched down with his hands on his knees to look me directly in the eye. As he raised his beautiful eyes up to look through his arch eyebrows, I felt my heart sinking in my chest.I remained intact with my hands tied in front of my body. As he kept staring at my face for the next few minutes in silence, I gulped right in front of his eyes."Tell me, how many spells do you know?" Conrad straightened his back and stood right in front of my face while he waited for my response.I had no idea what to say to him but in response to his question, I lifted my eyes and lowered them again."I'm waiting!" a sigh left his lips with the words and I knew he was getting impatient."I have been taught to learn many by heart but it doesn't matter since I don't have any magic in me." I humbly replied with my eyes still lurking on the floor. I couldn't raise my face and meet eyes with his, giving him another chance to get mad at me."Hmm, since you have been prepared by your coven for your initiation ceremony, you must have come to known many witches and warlocks." His questions were different. Unlike Kruz, Conrad didn't focus on his se*ual desires, at least not for now.But what did confuse me was his interest in magic.I lowered my face and sighed, "I have heard about some of them but I never got to meet them, since Alpha King had banished the ones that were actively practicing magic, we never got to meet each other ." I wasn't lying to him. If he wanted to know the truth about the witches, he should ask his father since he had kicked us out and the rest unlike us had been forced to live a life without their magic."Hm!" he was looking around, thinking about something when I raised my eyes and noticed him so confused and lost."Have you ever heard of a seer?" He stepped back and walked near his nightstand, picking up a bottle of wine he had left there.Not something I wanted this beast to drink from. He was already confusing in his sober form, I wondered what kind od twisted games he would play once he is drunk."Yes! I have heard about them." I was only answering what he was asking, not giving out unnecessary details."Heard about them only," he repeated after me and then let out a breath."You must know a spell to summon a seer then." He chugged through the bottle, facing away from me.I was trying to pick up his intentions behind these questions but I couldn't reach a conclusion."I know the spell but I don't think it will work even if I do it." now that he had his back facing me, I could clearly observe him."Hmm!" he left the wine from where he had picked it up and walked towards his study table, taking out a notepad and a pen. I watched him heading towards his closet from where he took out his ties and that was when my brain started to alert me.Once he reached me again, he left the ties and the book on the floor and slid a chair behind me."Sit down," he ordered, picking up the ties. As I did what he said, he began to tie my one hand behind my back with the chair. I've started to panic a little at this point, whatever he was doing wasn't something to end peacefully.He then proceeded to tie my right elbow with the chair behind but left my hand open. He then sat down to tie my feet and that made him kneel down to my lap.He had tied my each foot to the chair's foot, ceasing my body from getting up from that chair.The right hand he had only tied from the arm could hardly reach forward. He then went back to his study table and dragged the desk in front of me, placing the notepad in the range where I could reach it with my right hand only."Now, you will write down all the versions of the spells to summon a seer." He bent down on the table from the other side and waved the pen in my face, "By the morning, I want them all here in this notepad and if you failed to do so, your punishment will be even worse." He glared at me right through my eyes and then adjusted the pen between my fingers."Do as I say and I might delay the day to your punishment." He gently slammed his palms against the table but kept his eyes at mine.I was baffled at his demand. The Alpha King Uziel of the Dark Shine Pack had made it crystal clear that there was no place for a witch or any warlock in their country. The city I was residing in was even strict in these matters since the alpha king himself lived here."I'll keep my eye on you, so make sure your fingers don't stop." He straightened his back and waited until I nodded and began to write down the first-ever spell I've been taught by my coven. After my dedication to the work, he had given me, caught his interest, he went back to his bed and laid down there with his eyes on me. I was tied right in front of his bed, facing him.I did begin writing but soon a weird feeling of uneasiness began to engulf me.What am I doing?How can I betray my coven my handling over these soon-to-be alpha magic spells? They banished us and now they wanted our spells? Was he going to summon the seers through me to hurt them?I know that there were versions of books of magic that were missing but the ones that we had were the only ones that contained spells to summon a seer.There were countless queries and the person who had the answers had begun to fall asleep. I ceased writing and lifted my face to see him fully falling into a slumber.Is keeping the spells safe worth my life?I did try to do everything for them but my own coven left me tied up to that tree for the wolves.I had only been here for a day and the sleep deprivation, the injuries, and the starvation had started to take a toll on me.My eyes felt even heavy whenever I made an attempt to stay awake. And just like that, I had soon fallen into a deep slumber."No!!!"My body jolted awake at the loudest grunt ever. I looked around in panic and fright to see what was going on, my eyes landed on The Future Alpha, he was growling and grunting in his sleep.After blinking the sleep away, I was able to see clearly, I was able to perceive that he was having a nightmare.I watched him being restless in the bed, he would constantly begin to shift and then go back to his human form while not being able to get out of the nightmare. It seemed painful, only by the looks of his bones twisting and going back to place was enough to cause me fatigue, I could only imagine the tiredness he must be feeling. My sleep had been long gone, he was in so much pain that I could hear his heavy breathing from that far. It took me some time to register but I did start to analyze his condition.And then it began to make sense. He was cursed!He didn't want a seer to hurt them, he wanted to know the prophecy. I then knew why he was so strong yet so miserable, why I could feel a mist around him.It wasn’t a mist; it was a curse that was always with him."Argh!" he broke free from the nightmare and sat up with an accelerated breaths and his eyes changing colors, keeping showing signs of transition to his wolf form.Once he was able to dra
"Get up! Your time has come." Brenda woke me up with a slam to the bars. I have fallen asleep after I felt like dying from the lack of food. At this point, I was feeling so miserable that if anybody asks me for my last wish, I would say a drop of water.As I rubbed my eyes to clear my sight, Brenda dropped a white dress in my feet to get ready. Sadly, every time I was asked to wear a new dress, it was because I was being prepared to take one step closer to my ending,"Hurry up! The coronation ceremony is about to start and I don't want to miss out on anything," this woman sounded ignorant to my situation, she didn't want to miss a ceremony while I had to get ready for my execution. I ended up silently changing into that dress, there was anyways no point in having an argument with her.I couldn’t even fight back because I knew they would drag me to the punishment ground by any means possible.Once I was ready, she spun around to stare at me and then a chuckl
"What is her birth certificate going to do? What use is it for us?" As expected, Uziel didn't know the importance of a witch's birth certificate that was made with magic when they are born. I was even surprised that Conrad had found out about the importance of the birth certificate somehow. Since he was desperate to uncover all important secrets behind the curse he was put under, he was going at limits to find more about it.My body was trembling beyond my control because I denied to ever be enslaved to these werewolves. The sad part was that I didn’t know much about the link thing. It was something I wasn’t taught as most of the magic spells were in the books that had been stolen from us."When a witch's birth certificate is signed by a blood of a person and burned in their presence, the witch is forever linked to the person and she can never leave him or even stay away from him for too long. Betraying him will only cause her pain, and this type of relationship is only painfu
I was dreading for not only my life but my piece of mind as well. How long can I fight this man off? There will come a day when he will finally be able to get what he wants either by force or not. I had yet not eaten anything and my body had grown weak now. I could not even lift my face up without feeling pain.As Kruz was busy making threats and wandering around like it was his frea*ing bedroom, the door opened and the real owner of the room walked inside."Your highness!" Kruz instantly placed the glass down and bowed a little with his hand on his heart in respect. When was this torture going to end? "The day went well," Conrad mumbled while Kruz helped taking off his long coat. Conrad seemed tired and even exhausted, he must have started to feel the intensity of the curse now. The blue in his eyes looked darker as he lifted his face up to the ceiling and exhaled desultorily. "It indeed was a special day," Kruz repeated after Conrad with a smile formed across
"Good morning!" The maids said in unison when Conrad passed them to be with his father for the breakfast. He had woken me up when he woke up himself but didn’t say much. The entire time he got ready in silence, no useless arguments or jabs were thrown at me by him. I was allowed to walk behind him alongside Kruz, where he was his right hand and I was merely a personal maid, who was supposed to keep him safe with no weapons or spells, stupid right? When have the Alpha king's ever made a right decision anyways?I was wearing a black tight Jeans and a white dress shirt over a black top. The white shirt was hardly buttoned up from only my waist, making my tiny waist look even prominent.My black hair was left as that all over my back with no makeup applied on my face.I felt like a guard more than his personal maid, or should I say, I was his personal witch."Good morning son!" Uziel greeted his son and offered him a seat. He roughly passed me a glance and then attended
"Use your teeth!" he repeated under his breath, very casually staring at me like it was no big deal. My body shivered visibly but I was quick to get a hold of myself. I watched him for a moment to make sure he wasn't joking and well, he wasn't. He damn wanted me to break the tag with my teeth.After deciding to not turns things bitter between us, I gently grabbed his shirt with one hand and the tag with the other to my lips on the string. As I lowered my face on his chest, my nostrils were hit by his natural scent, that could be hardly spelt because of the perfume he was wearing.I brought my face extremely closer to his chest and cut the string, a smile of pride and smirk covered my lips as I raised my face. The moment my breath fanned against his naked skin, I noticed something and it made me scoff a little."What? What are you smiling about?" He seemed annoyed, he knew what have happened and he was irritated that he got caught."Why is your heart beating like a dr
We watched a girl in a bed, completely naked with a man thrusting inside her. The sudden opening of the door made the guy to jump off her and cover his body whilst he stared at Conrad with fear in his eyes.The girl didn't react much, she rested her head back and moaned until she realized what had happened"How dare you slept with an Alpha's mate?" Conrad's voice trembled us in our skins as he tightened his fist and stepped inside the room.To our surprise, it was supposed to be romantic date the two have planned. The entire room was decorated with red roses and the red wine beside the table was an evidence that they both drank a lot before getting in bed.Katie was still drunk while the guy was a little aware of the surroundings. It wasn't long that Katie lifted her face and her eyes met up with Conrad's eyes. The fear of losing someone you love, someone who had loved you was all I could see in her eyes."H--," Conrad was ready to pounce onto the guy with an appearan
I zipped past them after they have showed me how dense they could be and was welcomed by the grumpy king himself. There was no rest for me, I seemed to be babysitting this giant wolf. "Why did you stop me there, little witch!" He growled, punching stuff around onto the floor and creating a mess. Ah! Of course he was alpha, he had to be extra. "Are you going to clean after your mess?" I asked with my arms crossed, I might have looked like a weak and a scared person to them when I was first caught by their guards but I wasn't that feeble at all.Once I knew my environment and the people around me, I got more comfortable even in a place where I knew nobody liked me."Why would I? I'm the Alpha King, I don't need to do all these things." Conrad was breathing profusely as he glared at me through the mirror. He was bending over the dressing table, his palms resting on the expensive wood."Exactly! Why would an Alpha King show his desperation for someone who betrayed him?
