Alisha's POV
Finally, I made a decision. I would treat this journey as a part-time job – finish it, get paid, and leave here. Surprisingly, adopting this mindset brought some calmness to my emotions. I was determined to focus on my music and my own growth, no longer allowing myself to be consumed by the turmoil of my past.The next day, as Mireya and I descended the stairs with my suitcase in tow, I was taken aback by the sight of Suzy standing in the living room. Suzy, our Pack's Gamma, was an imposing figure, exuding strength and authority. Her bronze-toned muscular physique was a testament to her exceptional skill as a warrior and her crucial role in the training of werewolves in the Golden Crest."Luna, the Alpha ordered me to accompany you on this mission," Suzy declared at the sight of me, her voice flat and cold.Grateful for the protection Suzy would provide, I hesitated for a moment before asking, "What about Brad?" I had been under the impressionAlisha' POVThe distressing images kept assaulting my senses, and I couldn't distinguish reality from the nightmarish hallucination. The pain in my head intensified, and I couldn't control the surge of emotions and fear overwhelmed me. My body trembled, my heart pounded in my chest, and I let out a strangled cry, unable to comprehend what was happening.Brad and Suzy exchanged concerned glances as they tried to assess my condition."Hey, Luna, are you alright?" Brad's voice broke through the chaos, filled with concern. After he pulled over the car, Suzy reached out to touch my shoulder, trying to anchor me back to reality."No! Stay away!" I screamed, pulling away from her touch. The panic inside me intensified, and I felt like I was losing my grip on sanity.Suzy quickly withdrew her hand, not wanting to exacerbate the situation. "Luna, you're safe. It's just a vision; it's not real. Take deep breaths and focus on my voice." Brad tried to comfort me.
Alisha's POVAfter hearing Uncle Joey and his daughter Evita's conversation, a surge of anger ran over my body. It was obvious that they had also come to Blood Dawn, but Evita and Joey were just ordinary guests, uninvited and thus ineligible to attend the formal ceremony. No wonder she was so furious, but to insult my mother so casually, Evita must pay the price for her actions. Despite losing my childhood memories, I would never allow anyone to disrespect my family. Feeling much better now and regaining some strength, I got up and walked to a window near the garden, hiding behind the curtains as I secretly observed what they were up to."Evita!" Uncle Joey's stern voice stopped her in her tracks. He cautiously looked around, seemingly concerned about being overheard by others. I quickly hid behind the curtain. After a while, feeling safer, Joey spoke seriously and in a low voice, "How many times have I told you! Do not mention anything about Alisha's parents ever again!"Evita seem
Louie’s POVI arrived at the Blood Dawn early, hoping to meet Archie and his wife to have a chat and get to know them better. However, I ended up waiting for Archie in the VIP lounge for two hours, and he still hadn't shown up.My messages to Theresa remained unanswered, and I figured she must be busy. Bored to the core, I found myself drinking alone in a corner, forced to overhear various trivial gossip from the other guests."In a little while, the succession ceremony will begin, and we'll have the chance to meet the Alpha of the Blood Dawn. They say he's ruthless and incredibly powerful, often leading teams to hunt rogues in the Dark Forest. He's a king with an iron fist.""Yes, I've heard about his prowess. He perfectly inherits his mother's gifted bloodline. Having such an Alpha guarding the Dark Forest in the North gives us a sense of great security.""But personally, I think the Alpha of the Golden Crest I is even more formidable.""I heard that the Alpha and Luna of the Golden
Alisha's POVUnder the veil of night, I stealthily trailed behind Joey, leaving the garden behind. He skillfully avoided the crowd, coming to a quiet clearing that faced a dark and terrifying forest. Although I was unfamiliar with this place, the eerie and dreadful atmosphere emanating from the forest confirmed its sinister reputation as the legendary Dark Forest.I felt terrible scared to stay close to this ominous forest, and the air itself seemed to thicken with an overwhelming darkness. As I gazed at the foreboding forest from afar, it felt as if a heavy boulder pressed against my chest, making it difficult to breathe. My head pounded, and a dissonant ringing filled my ears. Clutching my wedding ring tightly, I sought strength from it, almost like a talisman. Surprisingly, my blurred vision began to clear, and the screams in my mind subsided, as if the ring itself held some mysterious power.Joey hesitated in front of the Dark Forest, his eyes scanning the inky ex
Alisha's POVDesperation gripped me as I tried to run as fast as I could to escape the danger lurking behind me. But with every gasping breath, I knew it was futile. The foul stench from the wolf's mouth invaded my senses, a chilling reminder that I was already within its hunting range. As its sharp claws pierced my back, a surge of agony surged through my body, and I realized that there was no way I could escape this ruthless predator.Just when I thought all hope was lost, a sudden howl pierced through the darkness. A figure as swift as a sword flew past me, soaring through the air and clamping down on the wolf that had attacked me. The two ferocious beings tumbled on the ground, raising a cloud of dust in their wake.As I struggled to recover from the impact, I saw the newcomer, a majestic wolf with a dense coat of pure white fur. Its coat shimmered like liquid moonlight, and its eyes held an intensity that sent chills down my spine. It stood before me, fiercely gu
Alisha's POVI watched in awe as Louie's power manifested, the icy aura surrounding him making him look like a mythical figure, a king of ice and snow. His eyes glowed with intensity, a mixture of anger and determination. In that moment, he appeared larger than life, a force to be reckoned with.The forest fell into an eerie silence as Louie's icy power held the rogue wolves captive. The tension in the air dissipated, replaced by an otherworldly calm. I couldn't believe what I was witnessing – Louie had not only saved me from the impending danger but also incapacitated the entire pack of rogue wolves.The realization of Louie's extraordinary abilities filled me with awe and gratitude. Louie's dual nature never ceased to amaze me. In my memory, he had always been a gentle werewolf, someone who cherished art, loved music, and possessed a kind and caring heart. I never could have imagined that the same Louie would display such astonishing power on the battlefield.
Louie's POVUnder the guidance of the warriors from Blood Dawn, we arrived in a room adorned with warm golden lights. It seemed like a medical area, well-equipped to tend to injuries. A sense of relief washed over me as I knew Alisha would receive proper care here.As the door closed behind us, I gently placed Theresa on the bed, her breathing still labored from the pain of her wounds. The leader spoke with authority, introducing a she-wolf to us, "It seems that your companion's wounds need treatment. If you don't mind, Lola can help you. She is very attentive and knowledgeable in medical matters, a very reliable warrior."Lola's presence reassured me, knowing that Theresa would be in good hands."In addition, I have already informed our Alpha. Before he arrives, you must stay here," the leader continued.I nodded gratefully, acknowledging the leader's suggestion, "Thank you very much. We appreciate your help, and we won't leave. Theresa's safety is my
Alisha's POVLola's expertise in healing was truly remarkable. With skilled precision, she tended to my wound, cleaning it thoroughly before gently wrapping it in fresh bandages. Her experienced hands moved swiftly yet carefully, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude wash over me."You're lucky this time," she said with a hint of relief in her voice. "The wound isn't too deep, and the rogue's claws didn't carry any poison. Otherwise, you would have been in grave danger." I silently thanked Moon Goodness for sparing me from more serious harm.With the wound neatly bandaged, she handed me a new set of clothes, and her considerate gesture touched my heart. "Your clothes got torn while treating the wound, so you can wear mine for now."I gratefully accepted the clothes she provided. The soft fabric was a welcome change from the tattered and blood-stained clothing I had been wearing. I quickly changed into the fresh garments, feeling more comfortable
