CHAPTER FORTY-ONE (WAXING CRESCENT)Chapter Forty-One: Fated MateThe hidden rune and ancient patterns on the square grounds lit up as well, engulfing the unblessed standing on top of them.Their parents, loved ones, relatives alike watched from the distance. Nervousness can’t help but hold their hearts suspended.They were afraid—what if a newly blessed werewolf lost control and went on a rampage? The elders and the Alpha were here to stop that from happening, but what if they’re not fast enough?Such dark thoughts made them close their eyes and bring their fists on their mouth and silently prayed to the Goddess, asking Her to look closely for them.Mallory’s random thoughts immediately wiped out of existence the moment the light surrounded her. She felt warm and light, and she could feel the surging power from within.She closed her eyes to nudge it. In the darkness, she could see gentle bulbs of light floating around in a vortex. They were like creating something straight; a line,

CHAPTER FORTY-THREE (WAXING CRESCENT)Chapter Forty-Three: The LunaMallory woke up in a foreign place. The ceiling was so high up, and the bed she was lying on was soft and smooth. It wasn’t her room. It was the exact opposite of her room.Without any second thoughts, she sat up, and when she did, the room around her spun. She anchored her body with both of her hands and waited for her state to stabilize before looking around again.“Where am I?” She stood up and walked around the spacious room. Her energy was spent, and she almost sat down again and again. No matter how she ransacks her brain, she can’t remember where this was. She had never been in a room this big before, what’s more, this elegant and grandiose. Her brows furrowed.Mallory’s head was still muddled, and she mindlessly strolled in the whole room until she came across a big mirror.She looked at the surface of the mirror, and there, her figure was reflected.In an unfamiliar dress, it was her with a slightly pale face

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE (WAXING CRESCENT) Chapter Forty-Five: Mating Ceremony Seeing that he’s in the verge of defeat, Leofric gritted his teeth, and once last glare to his father, he stormed out, stomping his way to the door. He didn’t look at her, not even once.Mallory kind of expected that already, but it doesn’t mean she won’t feel hurt from it.At the corner of her eyes, she followed him until he disappeared from the door. She thought that Alpha Ragnarr would stop him, but contrary to her expectation, he didn’t. Alpha Ragnarr didn’t even bother looking at his son, and continued eating with a serene face as if Leofric didn’t just walked out from him.Mallory soon felt the heaviness in the atmosphere the moment her tension from seeing Leofric disappeared. Seeing that Alpha Ragnarr was eating, Mallory couldn’t bring herself t

FIRST QUARTER Chapter Forty-Seven: Discoveries A lone moon hangs up in the dark, cloudless sky. The moon shone brightly, yet its light couldn't touch what was inside the thick forest. In that darkness, figures zoomed in at the speed of sound. Despite their fast movements, they merely stirred the air and rustled the leaves, but they left no unnecessary noise behind. Then they stopped. A silhouette blurred in the shadows before manifesting into a solid, human-like figure. However, unlike humans, the figure had long, sharp canines, and red eyes that were glowing against the darkness. The vampire kneeled on the ground, his head lowered and with a respectful yet scared voice, he said, "Madam Mabel, there are no packs in this area. I recommend moving a bit further." In front of the kneeling vampire was a woman with a tall build and voluptuous body, with her long hair tied up. A playful smile danced on her lips as she gazed down at the other vampire with a condescending look in her sim

FIRST QUARTERChapter Forty-Nine: Confirmation“I don’t have all the time in the world to wait for you, Mallory,” Oddny said impatiently. “If you could please tell me what you want and get over it. I need to work, to earn, to live.”“… Sorry for bringing trouble to you like that,” Mallory kept her hands on her back, not wanting to agitate the younger one if she accidentally touched her. “I wanted to see if you’re fine.”She gave her a look of ridicule. Oddny doesn’t believe her. She scoffed and pulled her lips into a fake grin. Spreading her arms wide, Oddny said. “Look, I’m fine and well! Now, are you satisfied? Can I go now? Can you go now?”And can we go into our separate paths now?Mallory didn’t hear that, but she knew Oddny thought of it in the bottom of her heart.She wants to cut her off from her life completely.Mallory wouldn’t allow that.“Come on,” she said hoarsely. A smile full of pain surfaced on her lips. “Don’t tell me I’m losing you too…”Oddny turned livid.She laug
