CHAPTER SIXTY-FOUR
Diana
"CAN I HAVE the first dance, dear niece?" Her uncle asked from behind her, loud enough for everyone to hear.
She was about to decline when she caught his eyes challenging her to try and decline. With gritted teeth, she responded, "Of course."
Bowing slightly, he extended his hand which she took hesitantly. The floor was cleared and he led her to the dance floor just as the music began again.
She placed her hand on his shoulder, just as he placed his on her waist. They started dancing and other dancers soon joined them.
"How is your neck, Diana?" He asked with a smirk on his face.
"Just fine, thanks for asking."
He gazed at her with a fake smile on his face. "You look so much like your father, it's revolting. Dillon always acted like he was better than me but now, where is he? Dead and buried."

Diana AFTER WATCHING THAT Rudolph made it into the restrooms, Diana turned to her mate. "Can we dance later?" Asher chuckled humourlessly. "Why do you avoid me so, mate?" "I just said I was tired, is that too hard to understand?" Diana asked tiredly. All she wanted to do was get off her feet, and take off those killer heels. "Do not take that tone with me, mate," he warned, causing her to narrow her eyes. "You know what, just come with me and let's talk." "I am not going anywhere but back to my hotel room to rest," she deadpanned. She could not understand where went the man she met before who spoke so softly to her was. The person in front of her, to put it in simplest terms, was an asshole. "You are coming with me, whether walking beside me or hanging over my shoulder, I do not care. No m

RichardRICHARD HAD GONE to the wildering woods to find the Oracle called Darlene. She was said to have migrated thereafter all the Oracles were exiled.He kept a steady pace while vamping, with four foot soldiers behind him. The wildering woods were located somewhere near the Fay kingdom.It was called the wildering woods because it was the area of the supernatural world, most underdeveloped.There were no buildings or constructions, just numerous trees and vegetation. But it was suddenly plagued with an unending drought.There was no rain or rivers, causing most trees to dry up, leaving behind wildering woods. This was one of the lands to be claimed by the Supreme King which was now Aiden.Richard stopped at the very end of the land, where it bordered the free lands inhabited by bandits.There,

DianaLACEY WOKE DIANA and Rudolph up the next morning, saying that there was someone at the door."It might be Councilwoman Dunn, she was supposed to bring breakfast," Diana said.During these past days, Diana had befriended the sweet Lady. She was the only one who knew they were leaving that morning, having overheard them talking about it the night before when she came to drop dinner.Councilwoman Dunn promised to help them escape from the kingdom without Asher's notice. They just had to wait for her signal."No, those footsteps sounded heavier than a female's, it can not be her," Lacey pointed out.Diana quietly walked to the peephole and took a quick look at the person outside. She saw just a black shirt but when she saw his sandy brown hair, she knew who it was."It's Asher," she whispered to her friends

Diana "What on earth happened to you?" She asked curiously. "You weren't like this when we first met." His character switch was as if he had multiple personality disorders. If that was the case, she needed the first version and not this one. "Oh, that was my Wolf. He takes over sometimes," that was his response. The fact that the first version was his Wolf, made it even more complicated. This was worse than multiple personality disorder. Diana had heard of his kind. They were unstable wolves that were prone to being feral. Their wolves were more primitive and animalistic than other werewolves. If Asher was an unstable Wolf, it meant more trouble for her. Diana could not imagine a life with him. He would ruin everything she had worked hard for. If only she had her Wolf, she would be able to stand a chance to escape. "So, mate, time is ticking. Will you do as I say or should I do it my way?" It was at that moment that Diana got the answer to Rudolph's question. "You are just

UnknownON THE OUTSKIRTS of the kingdom of the witches where the human population began, a female witch stood beside her dying mother with tears in her eyes.She had tried all the spells possible, but nothing had worked. As she watched the light slowly fade her mother's eyes, all she could think about was, what was next for her and the coven."Tell me what else I can try, mother, I can not lose you too," she cried desperately."No, Sia, go-" The dying woman coughed. "Take the book and go!" She wheezed, trying to force the words out."What if he returns? And the coven... What do I do about the coven?" Sia asked, letting the tears flow freely."Book… more important… world destruct…" the woman's words were cut short as she finally gave up the ghost. Instantly, a loud rumble was heard from outside.

AidanHE STARED AT his red torso in the mirror, his focus on the tattoo of the wolf howling to the moon.Though a simple yet beautiful design, it caused him the most physical pain he had ever felt in his life since wooden needles were used.But looking at the result now, the pain was worth it. The light blue Wolf stood on a hill, her face lifted and howling to the moon.An artist from the nearest coven had been invited to the castle for this job. At first, the artist was confused about why a vampire king wanted a Wolf tattoo.But Aiden being the smart person that he was, did not say anything. Instead, he blood bounded the artist to secrecy. The artist would die if another person learned of the tattoo.The only opinion Aiden wanted and cared to hear about the tattoo was Diana's. He could only imagine her reaction. Her forest

DianaIT HAD BEEN two days since she was separated from her friends and two days since she moved into the castle.Diana had never wanted to shoot someone or herself in the head more than she did in those two days. All she had done was eat, sleep, look pretty and repeat.Asher wanted a beautiful trophy mate, which everything Diana was not. He would not even let her lift a finger or do anything that would get her noticed.Thankfully he had not hit her or tried to discipline her, but Diana was going nuts.For someone who had lived four years in the wild and sometimes in hotels, going on adventures, missions and battles, this situation of being stuck and confined in one place were slowly driving her insane."No, I will not allow that," Asher responded immediately."But I will just be training with the females.

DianaOF COURSE, IT was just a trick. What was she even expecting?"Thank you, father, you may leave now," Asher said, as he entered her room.King Lennon nodded and left, but not before shooting her a small crooked grin.That twisted, conniving bastard!"Really? Is this what it has reduced to? Tricks?" She asked."I needed to see how much I could trust you to keep your word," he responded, rolling up his sleeves again.Diana had noticed that he did that a lot. He had nice and muscular arms but she would not be caught dead saying that to him."And now?""There is just one thing left before I can allow you to go outside," he replied, and Diana watched as his eyes darkened slightly. His Wolf was rousing.Diana could face anything but uns
