Sera quickly set out to find Alistair. She went into his study where he normally worked from during the afternoons but he wasn't there. She checked his office where she was sure he would be but he still wasn't there. She frowned in surprise. Alistair was usually pretty predictable.. If he was not in His office, then he was usually in his study. So after searching all of these places and not finding him, Sera was most definitely left confused. Where could he be? Letting out a frustrated sigh, she decided to turn around and head back to the room. But at that moment, she accidentally bumped into Grace. “Oh sorry excuse me Sera I wasn’t looking properly.” “It’s fine Grace. It was my fault, I didn’t look where I was going.” Grace nodded with a coldly formal expression ... like Sera was just a stranger or boss and started to walk away. Sera didn’t need a soothsayer to tell her that Grace was super angry with her. Grace had tried to reach out, from the goodness of her heart and Sera
Sera stumbled backwards from the window. Her knees felt weak and her body trembled with horror. She could not believe her ears. How could Alistair say those words so easily? How could he talk about her like that? What about all the promises, all the kisses, all the vows he had made to protect and cherish her? Where they all just lies? Or was this some form of miscommunication?No.... there was no miscommunication here, Sera had clearly overheard the evil things and plans Alistair had in store for her and any future children she had. He wants to hurt my child! He wants to hurt me! she realized as panic surged through her veins like a wild fire. Alistair— the man she once thought she would love for eternity now seemed like a complete stranger. How could he even be capable of such unimaginable cruelty? How had she not noticed it earlier?!He truly was a monster!“No…. I can’t stay here for one second longer.” She gasped as she stumbled away from the dark room. No one in their rig
King Alistair sat at the head of the table…his expression carefully neutral as the elders barraged him with insults about Sera, his mate. ….His fists were clenched under the table, and his inner wolf, Kane, kept growling in anger. Kane urged him to punish the elder for his disrespect and throw him out of the kingdom for daring to talk about Sera like that. How dare they?!"Calm down….Kane," Alistair whispered internally, trying to keep his composure. "We have a plan, remember? We need to gather enough information on these stupid —motherfuckers before we can make our move and take them down in one more month.”Kane grumbled in response… he was still very unhappy with the way the elders were trash talking Sera. But Alistair knew they couldn't act rashly. They needed to be patient …strategic. "As much as I want to break their fucking necks right now, we have to pretend to agree with them," Alistair reminded Kane . "They want me to hate her, if they think I do, then they will leave her
Sera stepped in and cautiously began to explore the cave. It was large and warm, and it somehow looked lively which was not at all what she expected.There were hand planted flowers that were delicately grown in several parts like someone was decorating the cave.But what caught her attention the most was a couple of intricate drawings and— carvings that decorated the walls. She stepped closer and saw that they depicted werewolves engaged in various unfamiliar advanced looking training exercises, and the sight intrigued her.She slowly ventured deeper and she stumbled upon a collection of old books and notes, their slightly yellowed pages revealed that they had been studied religiously.She picked a few books up and almost screamed with disbelief when she read their titles.“Ascension of the Omega”.“Unlocking your full potential.”“Release of the inner wolf”“Power upgrade for dummies!”“Kira! Can this be real?” Sera exclaimed to her wolf. “Did the goddess just send me books that wou
Sera sat upright and cross-legged on the cool floor of the cave, her eyes were closed,… and her mind focused on her breathing. She had been practicing— her meditation diligently, and today was not going to be any different. “Breath in.. Breathe out.” As she inhaled and exhaled, she felt a calming presence bloom within her, guiding her through her breaths. "Good, keep going," Kira, her inner wolf, spoke softly in her mind. "Breathe deeply, let the energy flow through you and surround your womb." Sera followed Kira's guidance feeling a zing of powerful energy zap through her. As she continued to breath… she focused on her twins. she could hear their heartbeats, synchronized and steady, powerful and strong.Kira, used her unique abilities to scanned their well-being."You're doing great, Sera. You and your twins are strong," Kira assured her. Sera smiled softly as she realized that her connection with her inner wolf had grown a thousand times stronger than before."Thank you, Kira,"
As soon as the man hurled her into the cave, he stepped away from her with his hands up, like he was telling her he wouldn’t hurt her. But Sera was beyond pissed … and scared… This unknown man had just attacked her, tied her up and had apparently been spying on her! He had to die!She quickly sprang away from him and with Kiras help in her mind, she quickly slipped her hands out of the poorly tied ropes he had used to bind her arms. To be honest...With the way he tied the ropes, it didn’t seem like he was actually trying hard to incapacitate her—- it felt like he was just trying to restrain her a little. Once her hands where free, she picked up another sharp stick as a weapon and glared up at him with fury. "Wh-who are you? How long have you been following me?" Sera demanded, trying to keep her voice steady. The man took a hesitant stepped forward, his face half-hidden by the hood and shadows. Sera quickly took a frightened step backwards ..”Stay away from me!” She screeched. Th
On several occasions, Sera even found herself laughing at his jokes. When had he become so funny?When they weren’t gathering food, Lucas would often show her some tricks to help amplify her newly found werewolf abilities, like her super strength. And he was often shocked at how quickly she learnt and mastered each trick"Alright, watch this,.. Lucas said with a mischievous glint in his eyes. He picked up a large rock, which was almost as tall as he was, then he effortlessly tossed it into the the air and kicked it into a tree.Sera's eyes widened in amazement as the rock soared high above them. "Woah—Wow, that's incredible!" she exclaimed. Lucas chuckled. "Well, you have the strength too. You just need to believe in yourself an let go of any doubts holding you back." Sera took a deep breath, focusing her energy. She picked up another another large rock, and flung it into the air before kicking it. It went even farther than Lucas's, but it completely broke the tree."I did it!" Sera
As the days continued to pass, Lucas continued to bring food for Sera, but he didn't try to get close to her. Instead, he would just leave the food at a distance, respecting the space she needed. But every now and then, he would glance in her direction and his blue eyes would fill up with a mix of hope that she would soon dash with her silence.One evening, as the sun began to set, Lucas approached the cave once again, carrying a basket of fruits and vegetables. He set it down and took a step back, watching her from a distance.... Like she was a vulnerable animal he didn't want to spook off."I hope you're doing well, Sera," he called out softly. "I'll be here whenever you're ready to talk or if you need anything." Sera felt her heart soften at his words, and she observed that despite how cold she had been to him lately, he was still here, patiently waiting for her. Maybe, just maybe, there was a chance for them to find ther way back to each other. "Thank you, Lucas," she called bac
