Suddenly there was no more running.No more sleeping with one eye closed.It was safe now. ...Jo slowly tried opening her eyes, she was finally discharged from the pack hospital and back to her guest room. Dante had been busy with his meetings and tightening the pack borders, but he would try his best to check in on her. She blushed thinking about the kiss they shared under the dome. Nothing more has happened ever since. Dante has really been respectful of her boundaries and giving her space.Jo was still walking on eggshells, not sure if this is really meant to be. Dante was married and that was the biggest barrier to everything right now. Even if he did not love Olivia or see her as his wife, they were still lawfully wedded. And Jo was pretty sure, Olivia would not take the news of her being Dante's fated mate well. Or maybe she already knew? Jo could not tell.At least she did not have to pretend with Dante anymore about being an omega. Infact, their mate bond was growing ever
'Marriage?', Lucy repeated her mate's words. Perhaps she misheard because none of this was making sense. Caleb massaged his temples and tried to maintain a calm posture. This was not like Caleb at all. He has always been the goofy type, and it felt weird to see him all so serious. 'Yes. Unfortunately, most Alphas have arranged marriages with other pack leaders to bring strong alliances, keep pure lineages, and build long-lasting relationships. I have been sworn to marry the daughter of Alpha Ramos from the Fawn pack'. Caleb chose his words carefully, knowing this would not be taken well.'Well, have a happy marriage life. I hope you have strong pups. Don't you dare dirty the pure Alpha lineage by considering someone like me, "Lucy said sarcastically and turned to walk away when Caleb yanked her right into his arms.'I don't care about the lineage, not one bit. You could be a vampire for all I care, and I would still love you and let you suck all of my blood', Caleb's words were makin
The island was chilly and breezy. Jo looked around and realised she was alone again. And then she heard that serenading sound that had been calling for her, yearning for her and haunting her. She wanted to know where it was coming from. It sounded so eerily familiar like she had heard it before. As she felt the soft shoreline sand beneath her bare foot, she knew she was getting close to that sound. It was coming from inside the Islands. But every time she tried to get closer, she would always…………Jo woke up panting. She had the same dream again. Ever since Belial’s attack, she had been having the same recurring dream of a serenading sound calling for her. But every time she tried to get close to it, she would wake up. Damn her luck.Not wasting any more time, she quickly got up and checked today’s date on a nearby table calendar. Her heart sank realizing that the day of the fairies’ departure was getting closer and closer. They were leaving in three days. It almost felt like a part of
Victor did not know when and how this has happened but Jo was the only one he could think of every single day. Before he even realised, he had fallen hard for the siren. Jo’s voice that sounded like melodies had drawn Victor to her, and he had fallen for her enchanting voice, her vibrant red hair, and the way her eyes held the depths of the ocean. But now, as Victor’s words echoed through the night, Jo’s world shattered. His confession hung heavy in the air, like a curse that could never be undone. He had killed his own father—the reigning demon king— Jo’s voice trembled as she whispered, “Why, Victor? Why would you do such a thing?” His eyes, once filled with tenderness, now bore the weight of guilt. “Because I love you, Jo. More than my own life. The former King Hades had ordered me to kill the entire royal family of the sea world on the day we were supposed to be married.” Jo’s heart clenched. 'Why would Hades want such thing and to wait till the wedding day? If he wanted to, he
Victor stared at Jo dangerously. If looks could kill, Jo would be six feet deep already. Before the siren could decently cover herself in front of the crowd that was now gathering, Victor snapped his fingers, and instantly the warrior next to her started grasping for air, his hands around his neck as if something invisible was choking him, robbing him of air.'Victor, stop', the siren pleaded for the warrior who she knew was probably a victim of Pat's evil plan.'Fuck this Jo', the demon king mumbled. 'You care about this warrior so much?'.Jo knew it was a wrong move because the warrior's body suddenly went still. She knew he was dead, so she dared not look at the body lying next to her. Tears were welling up in her eyes, this was not how she imagined her 18th birthday to have been celebrated. Damn it. She did not even want to have a celebration in the first place.'Everyone who dares lay their eyes on my soon-to-be bride will have it ripped out of their socket. OUT!', Victor threate
~On a beautiful sunny day in Dark Slayer pack~ As Jolene flipped the next few pages of her novel eagerly, she could feel her adrenaline pumping harder. She was getting close to the climax, vampire novels always had this effect on her. Except they were banned and forbidden in the werewolf world which gave her even more rush while reading them.‘Jo!’, she heard someone call her. Damn it, she thought to herself as she quickly dog-eared her current page and plopped it hurriedly under the pillow. She was so close to reading the climax!Her door opened right as she stood up from her bed.‘Our alpha is going to have important guest soon and we need to make all the necessary preparations!’, Polly exclaimed clapping her hands like a small kid. Polly was Jolene’s roommate and was always excited about everything.Polly flipped her black hair away as she shook Jolene in excitement, ‘And you know th
* Flashback * 'And what happened to the father bear, Mumma', eight-year-old Lucy asked her mother Wilma with her big blue eyes. 'Sweetheart, we will continue the story tomorrow. It's past your bedtime', her mother endearingly tucked little Lucy inside her unicorn blankets. Wilma gave a final kiss on Lucy's soft forehead before turning the lights out. That was the last memory she had with her mother. The next day Lucy was woken up by total chaos outside. As she tiptoed outside, she saw a strange black man stabbing her Mumma mercilessly and multiple times. 'Mumma!', she shouted as she charged towards the scene. The strange man having finished his job exited swiftly out the back door. Lucy looked on horrified as her mum was now bleeding at several open stab wounds, as she kneeled beside her mum, she heard a few coarse and crackled breathes. 'What in the! WILMA!', her dad shouted from behind as he shoved Lucy to tend to his dead mate's body. 'YOU! I knew you were cursed ever sinc
'What in moon goddess' name, is this true?', Lucy asked, covering her open mouth with her hands in shock. 'Yes, well that could be the only plausible explanation', Jo replied. 'I try my best to cover my scents in all of my clothes and everything well. But when I handed you my spare clothes earlier, I forgot to hide the scent and I did not know you were going to come out so fast to the kitchen'. Jo rubbed her temples in an attempt to ease the throbbing headache. 'But if you really are Alpha Jayden's mate, why not just tell him! Even if we are all omegas, a mate bond is sacred and above all werewolf laws', Lucy chirped happily, her blue eyes shining bright for the first time Jo had ever seen. This made Jo smile weakly. 'Lucy, this is much more complicated than you think and its better if you don't know my circumstances in depth. All I am asking for right now is that you play along and pretend to be Alpha Jayden's mate now. I will give you all of my scented clothes and you can drag thi
