LOGINThe other councilman was trying to get to Councilman Sloan; he had been trying for an hour or more now, but there was no luck. He had a very bad feeling that something had gone wrong, and there was a voice at the back of his head that kept telling him that he needed to leave. He was at the Chambers with Councilman Vance. He peeled the phone from his ear and sighed worriedly. “I still can’t get a hold of Sloan,” He said while looking directly at Vance. “I’m telling you, something’s wrong.” Vance shrugged weakly. “Our world may be ending, yet the Moon goddess chose an omega to save us; of course, something’s wrong.” “She’s literally your daughter.” “I know,” He replied without missing a beat. “But that does not change who she is. There are so many people in this pack who are more qualified. Hell, like Alpha Maddox. But Selena was chosen? An inexperienced omega?” He scoffed. “Daughter or not, it’s just the truth. And whatever you’re feeling is just anxiety. We all have that sh*t righ
Harry was on his feet, his heart pounding so hard that it felt like it was loud enough for him to hear. The gun remained pointed, his eyes trained on the door of the basement. Sweat flowed down his face easily, and his chest heaved up and down. His mouth was so dry, and he felt like crying, honestly.For a second, it seemed like the world stood still as he waited, waiting for either of these two things: certain death or surviving the most traumatic moment of his life.Then it happened. The door opened. But it was not what he was expecting. It was not broken down or anything. It was like whoever opened it knew the code.Malek walked in with ease, a smile on his face. When he saw his victim, his heart jumped with glee, and he got so f*cking excited. When Harry had run away from him, it had awakened something in him…almost like the adrenaline that awakens in a lion when a deer runs away from it.But seeing the gun escalated this. It had Malek even shaking. Yes, he knew he was a psycho,
A chill ran down Harry’s spine as he mentally chewed on the information of who was standing right in front of him…the very same man who was probably the one who had murdered his father and killed his dog.“Come on, man. Say something. You’re in the presence of a celebrity!” Malek said, chuckling freely. “I know your dad is dead and all, but come on…” He wiggled his brows, a crazy look in his eyes. “You’re sick!” Harry spat at him, the reminder that his father, who was the only family he had left, had just been murdered by this psychopath. “What the f*ck is wrong with you?!” Tears burned his eyes and threatened to fall. “Harry, Harry, Harry,” The guy replied calmly while taking a few steps closer to him. “Do you have any idea the things your father has done? Did you actually think that he was innocent? He deserved what he got, and everyone else who deserves death will get it before I take over this miserable pack. I will cleanse this town and will make it better.” He smiled widely, h
Harry’s POVHarry had made his way back home. It had been years since he had been taking his anxiety medication. Not because he was just dependent, but because he needed it. He was someone who had struggled with extreme anxiety since he was about nine years old. With his mother nowhere to be found since the woman had left him and his dad for a human years ago, that also did not do anything for his condition. People would always tell him that it was all in his head, that he didn't have to be dependent on his meds, but they did not get it. They did not understand. They were not the ones living through the hell that he would live in every time he went just a few hours without taking what he needed to take. That medication was his saving grace. It was the only thing that brought him peace. He had tried therapy, but it had not worked. He had tried working out or exercising, but those did not help either. He tried religion, but unfortunately, that did not work as well. Maybe the Moon god
Selena touched the little girl’s forehead and closed her eyes, ignoring what her mother was saying; she needed to focus. She did not have all the time in the world. She put aside her pain and her anger, only focusing on what she was doing at the moment. She needed to do that, considering that this could literally cause her so much, if not cause her to even lose her life. But she was ready to take that chance. For her little sister, she was ready to do that. Heart pounding in her chest, she waited. She waited for something to happen. And nothing did. She knew what the goddess had told her to do, and this was it. So why was nothing happening? Why did she feel like she was crazy as everyone stared at her, even though she could not see them because her eyes were closed? She could feel their eyes on her. And her mother was still speaking, saying something that Selena had already zoned out, so she could not hear. “Come on, work…” She said to herself as she sat there, silently praying f
As soon as Selena blinked, she was awake. It took a few seconds for her vision to clear up, but it did. And when it did, the first person that she saw was Axiel. He had a worried look on his face, but his eyes held relief. “F*ck, I thought…I thought…” He stood up and ran his hand through his hair, almost as if he was trying to process what had just happened. Then he looked back at her, and they locked eyes. “What happened? One minute, we were training like we always do, and the next, you just…you blacked out.” “How long was I out for?” She asked as she proceeded to get off the ground after peeling her eyes away from his. He reached out and helped her. Her head was aching, and she felt a little lightheaded as well, but other than that, she was fine. “Not long,” He said, sniffling dryly as he continued to stare at her. “What happened, Selena?” She stood there and could remember it all vividly. “I met the Moon goddess,” She began, a small, sad smile forming on her lips. Then she turn
Her bones ached as they broke to form new and stronger ones. Her muscles ripped apart so that they could form better ones, too. Her internal organs got twisted and stretched in order to fill the new structure that her body was taking.And all of this only took a few seconds. In no time, Selena had
So there was this festival that was being held today, and that was where Selena and her family were headed. It had been years since they had been together as a family, and this felt so good. Lily’s illness used to always be so serious, so even when they used to make plans to go somewhere, when the
The words of the alpha echoed in the omega’s ears over and over, and hearing them made her feel like she was levitating. She could not believe that he was saying them, and it made her panic a bit. She sniffled dryly as she took a step back. “I–”“You don’t have to say anything back,” He replied, h
A conversation later, Cassie was left in the hospital room. She called Malek later to pick her up, and she was waiting for him. But she had already been discharged. What had she talked with the alpha about? Well, she had done this whole act, making sure that he bought into the lie that she had att
