(Back to Muriel’s room)
~Muriel~I froze on my spot, and chills of reality traveled down my spine. Russell had come to see me in Newmoon pack, and a powerful Epsilon lives there, he saw him, exposing my deep secret.“I wouldn’t have believed him, Muriel,” Lucian spoke out. “When I saw how uncomfortable you were on that day, I knew something was wrong. The Muriel I know doesn’t possess the courage to talk back at anyone. But when you went missing on your eighteenth birthday and returned, everything changed. Putting together all your actions, I had to believe Epsilon Cadman’s words. But it’s not your fault, I know how demons work, he must have been manipulating you, and I, Lucian Logan will set you free from that spell,” Lucian declared. I looked at Russell, the angry looks in his eyes weren’t quelled. His fists were clenched, and I could hear the sound of his fast heartbeat, drumming in my ears. I bet if he wasn’t unable to use his powers right now, Lucian~Autumn~I decided to summon the courage to talk to my demon, human of a mate. I wonder exactly where he stays around the pack house. I trampled down the long hallway, hoping to see him by chance like I always do. Nervousness twisted my stomach. I was already imagining him laughing wickedly at me like he did the last time when I couldn’t reject him. My eyes peered every corner of the hallway for him. Before I would reach the porch, I bumped into him. I staggered aside against the wall and he walked past me like he didn’t notice me. I inhaled deeply to subdue the anger that was about being exposed to the surface.“Hey, wait!” I called out, running after him. He kept walking. I ran past him and blocked his way. “I want us to talk,” I said.“Get the hell off my way, I don’t want to ever see you, you hear me?!” he groaned to my face. His harsh tone vibrated against my skin, downpouring a pail of ice on me. I stood frozen, disbelief etched on my face. He pushed
~Muriel~I reached the dungeon. All the guards were down unconscious. I halted in surprise. I looked around the dungeon, it was as quiet as a graveyard. Behind all the barriers lay sleeping prisoners and along all sections lay sleeping guards. I wonder what had happened. I peered through the dungeon till I beheld a terrible sight that got me shrinking away. I covered my mouth to prevent a scream from escaping my lips. On the floor in the dungeon lay heavy silver chains that seemed to light the eerie darkness wrapping the dungeon. I moved closer to the barrier, hoping to see Russell. No one was there.“Russell?” I called out. My voice penetrated the darkness and it hit back to me. “Russell!” I screamed out.“Hey!” Lucian rushed in with three scouts. “Where is he?” he queried. I gnashed my teeth; turning to face him, I tugged at his shirt, pinning it to his throat.“What did you do to Russell, Lucian? If I get to know you harm him, I will kill you!”
~Lucian~I stomped to the Epsilon’s room. He was meditating as usual. I decided to sit and wait for him by taking a seat on a chair close to him. He ended the meditation and opened his eyes to me.“Welcome, Alpha. What brings you to my abode this time?” he queried, standing up from the yoga mat.“A demon…” I paused as his eyes swiveled abruptly to me. I could see disbelief etching on his face as he sat on a chair opposite me. “Yes, Epsilon, a demon trespassed our pack, defiling the rules of morality and entering into my mate’s room,” I explained.“What?!” I sensed terror in the voice of the Epsilon.“Yes, Epsilon. He came to see Muriel. I got him captured and he escaped. How can I destroy him? How can I ruin him completely?” I queried eagerly, vengeance laced in my voice. The Epsilon was mute for a moment.“Hmm!” he drawled the word. “It is a difficult, almost impossible thing to do,” he let out.“No…” I strained the wor
~Autumn~I headed to my room after practicing for a while. It has been a long we went to war, seems boring around Bluemoon Pack now. The last war we went to was many years ago. Reaching my room door, I saw Ian standing, patiently waiting for me. I scowled at him, moving close. “And what are you doing here?” I asked between gritted teeth.“Hey, you are back,” he smiled. Oh, gosh! The smile that irritates me so much. Seeing him smile seems he is mocking me.“What have you come to do this time?” I calmed my voice, opening my door.“I came to see you,” he said. I entered and he followed me up.“I didn’t ask you to come in,” I groaned, turning to face him.“And you as well didn’t slam the door at my face so, I assume you wanted me to come in,” he poured the reality to my face. I gritted my teeth, stamping my feet on the floor with a clenched fist.“Get out!” I snapped.“Whoa! Calm down. Are you always a hot
~Autumn~Before I got over the kiss stuff, my father entered my room. Seeing him, I jerked up. “Greetings, Father, “ I greeted sharply.“Greetings, dear. Grace told me she met your mate already. I came to find out why you haven’t brought him to me yet,” he stated.“Uh, that! I was going to…” I paused. Wait. Father doesn’t know Ian yet? But Ian told me he met him already. That lying human demon.“You were going to what?” Father’s question jolted me.“Uhm! I was going to bring him to you soon. You know, he is somehow busy for now but don’t worry, I will bring him once he is free,” I assured him.“Tell me why you haven’t apologized to him for being rude yet.”“But I just told you he is…”“Please, Autumn. You think I don’t know when you lie? You haven’t apologized, I know you. But one thing is clear, I want to meet your mate tomorrow and you two should be in a perfect relationship before you bring him to me. Is that
~Jennifer~Cora brought water and a towel to clean my feet on my order. I wasn’t comfortable with it but I needed to teach her a lesson for downgrading me because of my Omega status. Now she will experience what it means to be an Omega. I was seated on the couch while she knelt in front of me.“I still can’t believe how fast time flies,” I started. She dared not look into my eyes, she focused. “From a poor, wretched Omega to an expensive, adored Luna. Do you remember the day you made me spill Luna Glenda’s milk?” I asked. She glanced at me and looked down immediately.***I was heading to Luna Glenda’s room to serve her a glass of warm milk. Suddenly from a corner in the corridor, Cora appeared, intentionally hitting me and pushing the tray containing the milk to the floor.“What have you done?” I exclaimed. She plastered a hot slap across my cheek.“You dare not talk back at me. How dare you?” she rebuked. “Look here, Omega, wha
~Autumn~I geared up to go with Ian to my father. After this visit, I bet I will be free from my father’s pester. I met Ian outside my room. “Shall we?” he asked.“Sure,” I accepted and we headed on. We reached my father’s room. He was writing, seated behind his desk. He raised his eyes to us as we entered.“Greetings, Father,” I greeted.“Hello, sir,” Ian saluted. Father stood up and moved to us.“Now you did the right thing, Autumn,” Father smiled. “You are welcome, son, come on, come tell me about yourself,” Father said, leading us to the three sets of couches at the corner of the room. We sat down, I entwined my hand into Ian’s. He looked at me and turned to Father. “Tell me, son, who are you and where are you from?”“My name is Ian Blake from Newmoon Pack. The only son of Edward Blake and the grandson of Gamma Hagan,” Ian introduced himself.“You don’t say,” Father adjusted on his seat. “You mean you are E
It was late in the night when I woke up. I saw Ian writing on my desk. “Hey!” I exclaimed. He looked at me.“You are awake,” he smiled. I yawned.“What are you doing?” I asked, getting down from the bed.“Just writing and waiting for you to wake up,” he replied. I reached behind him and placed my hand on his shoulder.“I must have kept you waiting too long, right?” I pouted.“Not too long. It’s your stubbornness that got you awake by this time. Why didn’t you continue sleeping till tomorrow?” he teased.“I didn’t wake myself up, did I?” I let out, heading back to the bed.“Now that you are awake and you have seen me. Can I go?” he asked, standing up.“Go? Don’t you know what the time is saying? How can you leave me here all night alone when you know I won’t be able to fall asleep easily after waking up now?” I whined.“You want me to guard you all night?” he asked.“That’s what you promised Fat
