VALKYRIEThe crescent moon watched her children from above, crying over death. The cold air sang along with our tragic wail. Seeing my Mom weeping over my Dad's body was splitting my heart into shards. The tears on my eyes kept falling on my face while we all gathered at the main barrack as soon as we'd arrived. Everyone was in deep mourning for losing our Alpha and some of our warriors. This was one of our greatest lost ever since and I just couldn't accept that I lost my father just like that. He didn't deserve to die at all because he had a good soul——a peacemaker. He had a pure heart that no one could ever match.I glanced over my brother who was sobbing inside Esther's embrace while the latter kept on soothing him as her tears dropped on her cheeks. Wiping my tears off, I saw Flora in the crowd, wandering by herself. She was occupied at what was happening for a moment before her eyes danced around, probably looking for her daughter.Even though I wanted to stay by my family's si
VALKYRIE"And you're sure that she's not making it all up?" Esther questioned warily.All of the people in the meeting room turned their heads to me. I darted my gaze to each one of them, pondering if I really should believe Sarah, especially when she said that my grandfather was the one who ordered the execution of Aunt Aria for murdering Landon. Zymir had been refusing to talk to us at all. He was a prick stubborn man who doesn't even care about anything. Now I knew why those three didn't hesitate to reveal their own Alpha because Zymir was truly selfish. His hatred already consumed his completely."Whether she's telling the truth or not, she will never get away from the trial next week," Oscar was the one who responded to his daughter's question. "Our people will surely sentence her to death for what she had done to our Alpha. Do you really think her tragic past would be able to cover that up?"I sighed, clearly exhausted. Mom wasn't able to join us for a meantime as she was still
VALKYRIEIt was her will to live as a human that could bring her back. To be able to control the curse that was bestowed on our ancestors and to their descendants, one should have the willpower to accept their fate and use this curse itself to flourish. But how Sage would be able to do that if she had no idea what she was exactly? All her life she thought she was an ordinary human but that was a lie that was forced into her. Aside from that, she had to face the fact that her biological mother was the one who put her in danger and would be on trial next week for the crime she had committed.Speaking of that trial, an elder must be in presence. So my grandfather would surely come into town tomorrow for my father's funeral as well. But as of this moment, I didn't want to think about him even though I wanted to confront him about Aunt Aria. My priority right now was my mate only. On that note, I made sure to inform Flora about her well-being. She was skeptical of us but she didn't have an
VALKYRIEAfter my confrontation with my grandfather, I'd decided to call for help as I was already desperate. Fùck Ingrid's vision! The time was ticking already and my mate would surely die of starvation if I didn't do anything. Standing in the front of the metal door, I raised my hand and touched it with my palm. I could hear her monstrous breath, her intimidating presence inside. She must feel weak as of now for not eating anything yet for an elongated time.I knew that Sage could sense me. She was just lost in the depths of the unknown. This connection we had was my best shot of saving her. Unlike before when she was still human, she wasn't able to connect with me at all. But now that she was in this form, there might be a possibility that she could feel the rhythm of my heart. Although not bonded yet, there was still this spark between us."Sage, will you hear a story?" I murmured, a small smile etched on my lips. Silence spoke back to me but nonetheless, I paced forward and reste
SAGEMy memories was kinda skeptical. All I'd remember was being captured along with Dimitri. Captive by that Sarah and by that murderer, Amelia. Then discovered that the missing teens willingly joined them because of their Alpha's cruelty for their weakness. And that Rebecca arrived in the picture as Sarah kept on claiming that the mark on my wrist was given by Ingrid. Thenceforth, they tried to locate her with some witchcraft and it really fùcking hurt. Moreover, Primrose was also abducted as a vessel and they tried to bring back Aria from the dead with Dimitri as a sacrifice. After that, everything was kinda fuzzy and all I could recall was this bubbling heat, trying to explode out of me. Then all went black.This was all I could provide to the Irvine for now. Somehow, I was turned to their kind——a werewolf. I didn't have any idea if that could be bad thing or not. I felt odd, actually and I wasn't really used to it yet. That Rebecca must have put a curse on me but as I remembered,
SAGEIn the depths of the wood, the sunlight fell on the land of raining leaves. The fresh smell of the nature eased my heart that been hammered by the consequences of the life itself. The rustle of the trees playing with the air, the songs of the bird and the sight of the everything that surrounded us became more prominent with all my senses. My body became lighter that it had ever been as if I was already freed from the gravity."This is the world beyond the human limitation." Val twirled, raising her arms on her sides. "It feels good, right? To be unbound and to be something else."I nodded as I tried to sense myself and I watched as she leaped meters away from me."C'mon, try it!" Val yelled from her spot, waving her hands up.Gulping in anxiousness, I stepped one of my foot behind to arrange myself for a long jump. Then I gathered all my strength on my legs and released it once I jumped. When I sprang into the air, I lifted my arms up and felt the wind gushing against my face bef
SAGEAs soon as the sun appeared on the horizon, Val and I set off so that I could finally go home. As much as I would like to stay with my mate all the time, I had my parents to consider——my two mothers who built me up and loved me unconditionally with their undying perseverance. To be honest, I already missed everything about them. Even if I was just absent for only almost a week, it felt like a year had passed without me seeing them. Once I get home, I would surely request for my Ma's cooking and of course, tomorrow would be Sunday so it was gonna be our bonding time.Val was driving on our way back home while I looked out the window with an excited smile stamped on my face. I wondered when the first snow would fall because I couldn't wait to see everything in white. Winter was my favorite season of the year as I was always fascinated by the magical looks of the nature. Not to mention, the holidays and all the joyous gatherings. I may have change physically and in spirit but I was
SAGEAfter Val had tried to convince me to talk to Sarah, she took me out of the front wing of the manor and we began to walk hand in hand. We ran with a few of their helpers and they greeted us with respect while I made sure to smile at them in return. They were going to be my family soon once my mate and I unite under the full moon. Speaking of that ritual, I wondered how would it feel like to be linked with my girlfriend. She'd mention the effects along with it but I wouldn't able to understand it if I wasn't experiencing it in firsthand. Well, I guess we'd cross that bridge once we come to it."How does your ranking works anyway?" I questioned, trying to put my mind away from inevitable meeting with my biological mother.Val looked at me amused. "Ranks doesn't matter to us anyway. We treat each other as family here. But to answer your question, the main family ranges from Alpha and her Luna, their children as Beta. Relatives and their mate counterpart ranked as Deltas which is eit
