Leah's POV As I lay in the backseat of the car, after having spent a whole morning in the cemetery, I couldn't help but wonder how my life had started to feel like soap operas on daytime cable TV. And it all started because of Finn. As soon as I found Finn, I started to get into trouble. According to Jorah, my second brother Leo had something to do with Finn's abnormality. I had been trying to contact him all these days, but it turned out that nobody had his contact number. It was almost like Leo was transparent in my family. Lucian didn't get along with Leo, so I couldn't call him and ask. I could have called my Father to ask him to summon Leo, but I really didn't want to bother His Majesty the King for my little personal drama. In the end, I had to contact Jorah, who refused to shed light on anything relating to Leo. So, I guessed I had to confront Lucas. He asked Jorah to dig the dirt on Finn, so he must have k
Leah's POV"Mr. Farrow, I'm Miss Lewyn's bodyguard," Troy explained, trying to peel me off Lucas."You look way too pretty to be Leah's bodyguard. You're fired." Lucas stared at Troy and said."You can't fire Troy!" I protested, waving my arms in the air.I hate being lifted up by him like this and he did it every time he saw me!"I sure can. I'm your husband. I will assign a bodyguard to you." Lucas narrowed his eyes.He looked so pathetic that I couldn't even bear pushing him away."I don't want your bodyguard. I want Troy! Now put me down, Lucas Farrow. This is so embarrassing." I said in a stern voice.Lucas looked hurt.It seemed that he was bashed by a bat right at his face or something."Leah... I... I..." He mumbled while looking into my eyes."What do you want from me?!" I stared back and said. "Now put me down, so I can pay for that damn car and walk away from here.""I don't need a c
Leah's POVI sat frozen on Lucas' lap, staring at the void in front of me. My mind was trying to process the devastating news I had just received.Jalin locked up Sak?! Is that why Finn was afraid of me? Is that why whenever he was with me, the only thing I could feel was that he would rather go somewhere else? How could Jalin do something like this behind my back?! Why does he always have to mingle with my life?"Are you telling the truth?" My lips trembled as I asked Lucas."Jorah found out what happened. He's good for nothing, but he does get things done. Do you want to see the video clip he has taken?" Lucas asked."No... I don't want to see anything. I don't want to know anything." I murmured as I clenched my fists.My body felt numb. My heart was heavy with the weight of betrayal.I couldn't believe that the man I loved, the man who had been by my side, didn't actually love me back.My fantasy of being loved as a human be
Leah's POV"No, Lucas. Don't..." I shouted, trying to push him away."Leah, my love. You're so naughty today." Lucas said as he ripped my skirt off. "You like it rough today, don't you? I feel like playing it rough today. Let's play it rough."I could feel his hot breath on the nape of my neck, his hands gripping my hips with a force that made me gasp.I tried to push him away, but his strength was too much for me.I could feel his hardness pressing against me, and I knew what he wanted. But I just didn't want to give it to him.Not now. Not like this.I wanted to use my Lycan force, but when I opened my mouth, my voice was gone.I tried to push Lucas away, but my arms and legs became noodles.In despair, I closed my eyes."Leah, stop protesting. This is your destiny." A voice appeared in my mind.It was the same voice I heard when I was floating in the ocean."Moon Goddess. Are you there? Why'
Leah's POVI didn't know how long I had been running on that day.I was running across busy streets, running over bridges and rivers, running past forests and hills.A Lycan had great stamina, but on that day, I completely lost control. I used every single dash of my stamina until I became absolutely exhausted until there was nothing left.Lying in a clearing in the forest, I looked at the sky above me. The everchanging cloud was silently cruising in the sapphire background of the sky. I wondered if I could float in the sky like a piece of cloud. When I felt tired, I could just melt and become rain, dropping to the ground.The contrast between the lightness of my dream and the gravity of reality was suffocating.I hate Lucas. I thought to myself. I hate Jalin. I hate Finn. I hate Darren. I hate Troy. I hate every man that I have ever appeared in my life except my Father and brothers."Leah." The voice in my head appeared again.
Leah's POVThe Moon Goddess Temple was located in a hidden valley.From outside, it looked like an abandoned mining ground.My Father purchased this land and hid it away from human beings, just to provide a secluded area for the worship of the Moon Goddess.As I limped into the grand temple, my breath came in ragged gasps and my heart pounded with fury.My eyes blazed with anger as I approached the ornate altar of the Moon Goddess, feeling as though the very walls of the temple were closing in around me.The temple was a marvel of grandeur and sophistication. Its walls were adorned with intricate patterns of gold and silver, while the ceiling was a shimmering expanse of stars and constellations. The air was heavy with the scent of incense and the soft glow of flickering candles cast dancing shadows across the room.But I paid little attention to the splendor around me.My attention was focused solely on the statue o
Darren's POVAs I walked into the dark alley behind an abandoned factory, I smelt it.The smell of a mixture of cheap perfume, vomit, dead mouse, sperm, and cigarettes.This place was known as Dark Market in Mediland, where rogues, outlaws, and drunkards dwelled like cockroaches at every corner of the alley.My brother used to tell me that people should live with a purpose. If a person loses their purpose in life, they usually end up staying in places like this.The disgusting drench of low lives. The rock bottom in this world by any standard."Hey, handsome biker. Do you want to come inside? I'll show you a good time and let you ride me." A woman with messy make-up and hair slurred at me. Several of her teeth were gone and there was a big scar on her face."I'm looking for a woman," I said to her."I'm a woman," she said. Then, she bent over and lifted her short skirt. She wasn't wearing anything underneath, so she was basical
Darren's POVI looked around. This place looked like a shit hole.The bar was dimly-lit with the pungent odor of stale beer and unwashed bodies. The smell plainly hit me like a freight train.The patrons were a motley crew of disheveled characters, their faces twisted in various stages of drunkenness and rage. The cheap, disgusting alcohol flowed freely, fueling the chaos that swirled around me. The air was thick with cigarette smoke, and the walls were coated in a layer of grime that seemed to have accumulated over many years. The tables and chairs were mismatched and worn, some missing legs or arms, others so rickety that they threatened to collapse at any moment.I couldn't help but notice the poor souls slumped over their drinks, their eyes glazed and unfocused. A group of men in the corner were arguing loudly, their voices slurred and angry."Fuck you, Billy!" a man shouted. "You're possessed by that fucking brunette at Damian's fu
