Chapter 54 - Land of the damned
Kylie POV:
I glance one more time at Oliver, my heart hammering loudly against my chest.
Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.
He leans down and settles the tracker on my ankle, I am supposed to wear it for them to follow my moves. It is equipped with a countdown timer as well, he sets it at 72 hours.
So those three days are counted to the last second.
“It’s your last change to give up, if you want.” His voice matches the pain in his eyes.
I shake my head in disagreement and then taste his lips one last time.
“I said ‘Go’!” An angry voice behind me makes me roll my eyes in annoyance.
Oh just give me a break, I’m on my own fucking time!
With no further delay, I bury my fear deep inside and start running through the spine-chilling forest. I run against time as fast as I can, adrenaline is pounding in my veins, I need to find a shelter before it gets dark, my life depe

Oliver POV: Everybody stopped from what they were doing, they all look perplexed by the unexpected development of this event. Even my mother seems affected, confusion flashes in her eyes, she puts down her glass of champagne and stares at the map. There is a reason for all this sudden interest. My pack and every pack that I know tried at least once to claim that territory, but nobody was able to even get close to it. Though it is marked on the map, each time we edge near that area, we just find ourselves going in circle, we have never once been able to push forward. Everyone that attempted to find the land of the damned just passed near it, so rumors have it that it was enchanted one thousand years ago, when a human girl destined to a werewolf alpha died there, betrayed by her mate and his kind. Of course, those might be just made up stories, it’s not like someone from one thousand years ago is here to confirm it. We do live a longer life than

Kylie POV: My body is in full panic mode, I hold my breath in stupefaction as she falls to the ground. Despite my instincts that scream to get out of this place, I take a few steps to where she fell and reach a trembling hand to check her pulse. There is none. The woman is cold as ice, her skin the color of the porcelain, her long black hair styled in loose curls, she is wearing some dress from centuries ago that gives her an aristocratic air. Even with her eyes close, I can tell that she is stunning beautiful to say the least. And that statue she was trapped into was sculpted after her appearance. Poor soul, how did she get here? Who did this to her? Then out of nowhere, her chest is rising, she gasps for air. Next thing she opens her eyes, they have the color of the sky in a stormy day, a cold and murderous aura radiating from her figure, the shock coursing through me drives me to lose my balance and fall on my back. I start
Taming the Ruthless Alpha Chapter 57 - Prophecy
Oliver POV:My body is fuming with rage, I slam my fist in a wall in anger, all eyes are on me and I couldn’t care less.‘He’s gone.’ My brother’s words are resonating in my ears, my brain cannot make sense of anything. I feel anger at my own foolishness.How could I have been so stupid?There must be someone that has some type of information about the witch boy, and where else can you find all the packs if not here, celebrating my fucking nightmare, dancing on my dire misery.I try to keep my mind clear and my rage in place despite the strong emotions I am experiencing, but it’s not working. Before I could conceive a strategy, my impulse and my despair get the best of me, I begin interrogating all the guests, asking if whether or not they knew Jasper’s identity or where to find him.Some seem annoyed by my inquiries, but most of them appear to be actually worried, making promises to provide assistan

Killian POV:“And you mean that human girl might give birth to the half-blood from the prophecy?” I scoff, what I am hearing is utterly impossible, I refuse to believe it.After all the efforts I made to take control of the demon wolves, the supreme sacrifice I had to perform to make them obey my commands for no great power comes without one, after everything, does she want me to believe that a simple half-blood offspring would overpower me? Maybe when hell freezes over.I gave up something valuable, if Kendra would know what really happened to her mother, if she would know what happened that day, she would never speak to me again, or worse.“What I know is that the one thousand year seal was shattered, my magic is slowly crumbling, I can feel it in my bones, and it happened the moment she entered the land of the damned.”Shock is coursing through me, I drop myself on the couch, there are too many things that I might l

Kylie POV:I take a step back, my brain struggling to come up with a solution, but it’s clear that even if I give it my best shot, I cannot escape her. Maybe I just have to surrender, after all, I’ve been running for hours and I am exhausted to say the least. It’s not good for the baby either, my angel needs to be healthy and strong.After drawing the conclusion that I have to confront her, I push forward, closing the door behind me and walking to the table where she is, pulling a chair and leaning on it, I do need some rest.“Good choice. You had no chance in outrunning me anyway.” She declares nonchalantly, as if reading my mind.Can she do that? No, there’s no way, I am just panicking.“I guess you’re right.” I utter.“I’m sorry about earlier. Everything was a blur in my head, but I am starting to put the pieces of the puzzle together. I still don’t have the whole pic
Taming the Ruthless Alpha Chapter 60 - Betrayal
Kylie POV: There are some prominent lines between her eyebrows, anxiety is surging in waves from her. She rubs her temples, her eyes are shut close, the image in front of me is truly heartbreaking. I wish I could do something to offer comfort and ease her pain, but I can’t think of anything. “There is this weird feeling I’m experiencing, as if I’m searching the corners of my mind for pieces of memories, only to find the shelves empty.” She explains, her tone laced with a mix of anger, confusion and disappointment. Truth be told, I am curious too of her origin, of the reasons someone had to trap her in here, of her connection with this place. Out of nowhere, the walls of the small cottage are fading from existence, we are entirely out in the open now. My curious regard falters and turns to one of worry, I am practically shaking in fright. As quickly as the walls faded, a new scenery replaced the old one, rendering me speechless. My eyes

The ones that I can request assistance from are already here, by my side.I have no witch acquaintances beside that Sandra, and she vanished along with Killian in the blink of an eye, leaving me with no choice other than to presume they are involved somehow. In fact, I’m sure they have some connection with everything that’s happening.Then there is Blake. I can tell that he is more than what meets the eye, but I have no idea how to reach him. I am surprised that he didn’t show up by himself for I’m convinced the news about my mate being lost has already spread like wildfire through the forest. He helped her before, won’t he help her now as well?I’m inwardly screaming in frustration, it’s already been a fucking day, what if something happened to her?No n
