ACE POVI went away with mother, to be honest, I did not want to talk to her. If this was another conversation that would end in an argument, I will definitely leave right now."What is the matter, mother?" I asked her."You have not talked to me for so long and that is the question you ask me, not even a proper greeting?" She said."Good evening, mother. Are you happy now?" I asked."I am not happy, Ace." She said sadly"I am not happy because our relationship is strained and it is because of me." She said. I looked away and sighed."I am sorry that I said those things. It was completely wrong of me." She said."I'm happy that you saw it was wrong mother." I said "I promise you that from now on, I will learn to respect your wife and I will try hard to get to know her. Because I don't want to lose what we have." She said. I turned to her and held her shoulder."Do it because you want to and not because of me. Freya is amazing, mother. All you have to do is open your heart to her." I
FREYA POVAfter my conversation with Ace. We decided to talk to the Council, we needed to give them good reasons why we should be allowed to cross the boundary. I'm sure they would see reason. I have a feeling that my visions would help us or at least some of my visions.I still have to figure out how to get rid of the evil version of me that I keep seeing. She scares me. I keep remembering what the sage said about fears and doubt. I do not know how to go about it but I really hope I don't see her again for a while. I do not want to be disoriented because of her but something tells me that this thought is too good to be true.Ace stepped inside the room, his face looked calm, I'm hoping that it means that the council has agreed to hear us out."What did they say?" I asked. He sat down next to me, his eyes boring into mine."They have agreed to grant us a meeting." He said and a smile made it's way to my face."That is great news, when shall we meet them." I said."Now." He said and I
FREYA POVI woke up the next morning. Ace was not next to me and I wondered where he had gone. I stood up to look for him. We're in a foreign land. It's not safe to wander around without each other. I stepped out of the room and I went downstairs. Talia was still behind the counter wearing a dress that leaves nothing to imagination. It's not like I'm judging her because I'm definitely not. It's just that I've never seen people dress like that before in the pack. So I do not know how to react to it. She turned to look at me and when she saw me, she gave a little smirk and turned away.I went down the stairs to talk to her, maybe she saw Ace leaving."Goodmorning." I said to her and she didn't respond. That was quite rude."I said goodmoring." I repeated. She turned to look at me, her face looking distasteful."I heard you. What do you want?" She said. "You could have responded at least." I whispered. I knew she heard me because she clenched her fists but she didn't say anything to
FREYA POVWe followed Helen as she directed us to where the witch boy was. Well, he isn't much of a boy. He's a man now. I wonder what he looked like. She took us to as deep part of the forest. There was a waterfall there. It was serene, the type of place you would go to when you wanted a moment of peace. "He usually comes here to meditate. The type of power he has needs a lot of concentration." She said."How long has he been staying at the cottage?" I asked. "He's been staying there since I rescued him from death. My husband was the town prosecutor." She said "Where is he now?" I asked her."He is dead. But he lived a full life." She said and I smiled "I'm sure he did." I said. She touched my shoulder and went back to what she was telling us."My husband and I couldn't believe that he did it. It just didn't seem possible. There was no trace of blood. No evidence that anything ever happened and he was so young. He was about your age then. He wouldn't have done it. But the villa
FREYA POVWe arrived the pack safely and, thankfully without any hindrance in the way. Honestly, a small part of me will miss the human world because of Helen. But I won't miss it because of Talia. I can't believe she sold me out like that. I can't believe I even trusted her. I'm happy we're out of there safely and I'm happy we have Kiran. I can't wait to rekindle the friendship we have. After I received those lost memories yesterday, I realized that if I had remembered him all the while that I was in the pack, I would have looked for him long before now. I missed him. We arrived at the pack and we were let inside. The pack warriors bowed as we entered."Tell them that we're back." Ace said authoritatively. Kiran looked around him, probably trying to assess the environment he was in. I'm sure it wasn't what he was used to in the human world. Well, things were about to get very different for him. I touched his shoulder and asked him,"Are you okay?""I'm fine, Analyse. I don't know
FREYA POVWe were talking amongst ourselves about different things after Kiran went after Lydia. I saw them going towards the garden. Lydia had a frustrated look on her face while Kiran had a little smile. Just one day of being near her and he was already smiling. I wonder what interested him about Lydia. Well, I wouldn't meddle in his business or in hers. But, a small part of me wondered what Lydia wasn't comfortable talking about earlier. After Kiran told me that she was crying, I was curious, but I would wait till she was comfortable before asking her. We just started our new friendship, it would be improper to meddle in her personal life this early into it."Freya, are you still with us?" Ralia said. I looked around and I saw everyone staring at me."Don't mind me, just lost in my thoughts." I said."Are you sure?" She asked again. Who would have thought there would be a day when Ralia and I would be good friends. When she would worry about me so much."You worry too much Ralia
LYDIA POVShe walked towards me, my name was still on her lips. Kiran had to leave and now. I turned to him and responded to his question so he could leave as quickly as possible."Yes, we can be friends.. You can leave now." I said and he rose one of his eyebrow."Is that how you treat a friend?" He said with amusement on his face."And I think someone is calling you as well. She looks like she's headed this way." He said and I felt her hand on my shoulder."My goodness is anything wrong with your ears, I've been calling you, didn't you hear me." Tyra said."No, I didn't." I responded dryly. Kiran watched the exchange between us but didn't say anything. I appreciated that you didn't Interfere."What's wrong with you Lydia. You're not fun anymore. Ever since that day we snuck out for.. " she said but I cut her off."I'm fine. I'm busy right now Tyra." I said pointing to Kiran. Before she could say anything more, I said to Kiran."I will arrange your room now, like you asked me to." I
LYDIA POVI woke up the next morning. Shockingly, I did not have any nightmares. Maybe today was a good day for me, I was hoping that it was. I looked at my hand and I saw that the bruise had already healed. I remembered yesterday instantly. I could still feel his mouth on my hand. How is that even possible? I shook my head and after taking a bath. I went to start my duties for the day.I was in the process of cleaning the dining hall when Tyra walked in. I was hoping to avoid her today or forever if that was possible. But I knew avoiding her forever would be Impossible. I would see her someday even if it wasn't today.She walked up to me and tapped me on the shoulder. I didn't turn back to talk to her until she tapped me again."What do you want?" I asked her."Why have you been avoiding me?" She asked me."I'm not avoiding you, I have been busy." I said. She rolled her eyes at me."You definitely think that I'm stupid don't you?" She said. I turned my back to her and continued work
