Gold Eyes

Nyx PovA cold breeze splashed against my face, combing my hair in different directions as I ran as fast as my legs allowed. The beast chasing me wasn't moving like a normal wolf, more like a man in beastly form.Its hinds thumped heavily on the ground. I could feel the vibration beneath my feet. Or was it the pounding of my heart?I ran as fast as I could, but it was no match for a lycan. He grabbed my ankle and lifted me up, baring long fangs at me. My heart stopped. He slashed his claw across my chest."Noo..."My eyes shot open as I sat upright, scanning my surroundings. Sweat clung to every inch of my malnourished body as I tried to steady the pounding of my heart. I pressed a shaking hand to my chest.Being human in a house full of werewolves was more than enough punishment for me, but fate still rewarded me with nightmares that made me wonder if my reality was a dream. My room door pushed open, jolting my head up."You lazy bitch!" My mother's voice cut sharper than her slaps

The man in the woods

Nyx I thought I was running but I wasn't. My head was bleeding but I felt the pain in my feet. I found my way to the woods at the back of the school, half falling and walking. The trees shielded me from prying eyes.My mind drifted back to the gold pair of eyes I saw earlier. Or was I imagining things? That was not unlikely given my head had just been slammed against the wall. Thank goodness the principal interfered in time, saving me from more beatings.I sat down under a thick tree and dug through my backpack searching for anything useful to stop the bleeding. Nothing. Other than writing materials，a tiny mirror, and a cellphone without signal, nothing came in handy. "Wow Nyx, you don't even have a napkin to wrap your head with." I took out the mirror and tried to look at the back of my head. I couldn't really see the injury, only the bloodstain at the back of my dress."You smell divine." A voice I recognized all too well sounded from the shadows. Cullen stepped out with a small bo

Fated Mate

Nyx povIs there a limit to the weird things that can happen to me? Moon goddess, just give me a break already. Something about this man sends chills down my skin, and I'm not about to stand here and find out what that is. I dust off my soiled dress and turn to leave."Who touched you?" His deep baritone voice hits me like a shockwave, freezing me in place.I can feel those gold eyes on me like a physical weight, patient and unblinking, as if he has all the time in the world and fully expects me to fill the silence. I would, on any other day. I would have tripped over my own words trying to explain myself to someone who looked like that.But it's getting dark fast, and I need to find my way home. Not that my stepmother is particularly eager to welcome me back, but it's either that or sleep on the street. Bad things happened to girls who weren't home before dark in Nightclaw territory. Especially human girls."I have to go," I say, brushing the dirt off my skirt again and ignoring the

Dragged to the hunt

NyxIt's been two days since I got slammed against the wall, but the students won't stop laughing and whispering as I walk to my locker. It doesn't matter if I'm the Beta's daughter or human. Teenagers can be assholes, especially werewolves who believe strength is everything."Hey girl." Mira waves at me with a wide smile. Well, at least not all teenagers are cruel."Hey Mira," I say, closing my locker.She links her arm through mine and drags me excitedly into an empty classroom, not caring about the girls staring daggers at us as we walk past."How's your preparation for the Crimson Hunt coming? I really hope to find my mate that day. What if he's a Lycan?" Excitement beams in her eyes."You know I can't go. I'm not even a she-wolf," I said, sitting on an empty desk."Uh, so what? You're the Beta's daughter."I roll my eyes. A butler's daughter has more rights than me. Besides, I never understood why she-wolves fight each other to be claimed by monsters. I've seen a Lycan's beast fo

The meeting

Kyrell Third person povKyrell stood in front of the full length mirror in his walk-in closet buttoning up his shirt. The closet was probably the size of a standard bedroom yet the feeling of suffocation had not left him. He picked up his suit jacket, sweeping his arms into it as he walked out to his main bedroom.The bedroom, like the closet, was elegant, expensive and dark. The kind of luxury that screams old money laced with modernity. "Come in Samiel." Kyrell said before his future beta could knock."Prince Kyrell." Samiel said, approaching with caution. Since they got back from the Nightclaw pack, Kyrell's beast had been on a killing spree. Samiel tried to give him space, but no space was enough for the man, not even his own mansion. "The car is ready, Prince." Kyrell stood staring at the floor-to-ceiling window his hands in his pant pockets.He had put off seeing his father for three days after returning from the Nightclaw pack. Not wanting to deal with the Lycan Alpha with the

Attacked

NyxThe trip to the Quicksilver pack was fun. My brother made sure I conserved my strength by keeping me quiet throughout the car ride. Actually, he tied a cloth around my mouth and seized my phone, but it's all the same. I sat next to Vesper throughout the drive while Calix and Cullen sat in the front.Vesper used every opportunity to turn me into her personal maid, sending me on errands whenever we stopped for a break.Calix, on the other hand, didn't spare me a glance. It was like I didn't exist in his sight. How heartwarming to be ignored by my crush. At least they were kind enough not to put me in the car trunk.The car slowed down as we got to a checkpoint. The third one since we arrived at Quicksilver pack. What's with all the security? Still, I couldn't help but admire how beautiful and coordinated the Quicksilver pack is. I looked through the tinted window, luxurious cars moved slowly in the traffic in front.I stared at the security guards who looked like their uniforms were

It just wasn't there

NyxI couldn't feel the pain in my feet anymore, not when fear was clawing at me from the inside. My eyes widened, and my mouth opened, but nothing came out of it. All I could do was stare at the brown Lycan impaling me with its grip, its blue eyes sending shivers down my spine.It bared its fangs at me, bringing me close to its nose. It sniffed me and attempted to dig its fangs into my neck. At this point, I had stopped praying. All I could hope for was a quick death.I shut my eyes tight, bracing myself for the inevitable, when another howl cut through the air. One that sounded so thick, so ancient. One that must have angered the Lycan before me, for it suddenly gripped me tighter and brought my neck to the tip of its fangs, making my heart drop.Just as the tip of its fangs brushed my neck, another Lycan appeared from the shadows, one I hadn't noticed earlier because of its jet black fur. It was bigger and faster than and It's golden eyes were the only part of him I could see prope

The prisoner

KyrellThird PersonHe should have killed her. He should have sat in that meeting with his parents and endured the pain squeezing at his chest. He wanted to do anything other than what he did. Save her.The abomination the Moon Goddess gave him as a mate. A weak human that couldn't endure a minor nail injury. A weak human that couldn't find her way out of trouble after finding her way into it. The same human he stopped another Lycan from claiming.He crossed one leg over the other, tilting the glass of whiskey in his hands. The hunt is tomorrow. Lycans above thirty who hadn't claimed a mate would go schizophrenic, and that was a fate no Lycan wanted. Therefore, they hunted unclaimed females and marked them before the Crimson Hunt.That was why security this year was tightened, to prevent the accidental marking of she-wolves. But she wasn't a wolf. Kyrell's brows furrowed in a frown. If a Lycan had sensed her enough to mark her, there must be something more to her.Footsteps echoed dow

Cullen

NyxI groaned as Mira came to stand beside me at the closet. "Don't tell me you lied about your pain just to avoid coming to the welcome dinner." Mira wouldn't stop bickering since she got back from the dinner.I stared at her exhausted face. She was barely holding it together but still found the strength to throw questions at me. Questions I racked my brain finding answers to, I came up with nothing."I did not." I only stood up to go to the bathroom this morning and realized that the pain was gone.I was too surprised to say anything and Mira had been too focused on her makeup to notice. And when I came out of the bathroom, she was already gone."Then explain to me why you're no longer limping. And why do you smell different?" She stared intently at me."I stood up to go to the bathroom this morning and noticed the pain was no longer there. And I made use of the free shampoo." I said, moving to sit on my bed before she dropped another question.I left out the part where faint green

Ours

KyrellThird personKyrell stopped dead in his tracks. He wasn't surprised that Samiel figured it out. The man has always been very observant. What surprised him was the excitement in his voice."Tell no one about it." Kyrell said and resumed his stride. He doesn't care about her. The fragile being that makes him question his sanity.Samiel could see the tension on his prince shoulder, even when he was trying too hard to mask it. He picked up his pace."But why shouldn't I? You found your fated mate. That I extremely hard to come by for lycans, and you found yours." Samiel followed behind him until they got to Kyrell's study."I don't believe you should keep this a secret. Not when the hunt is tomorrow."Kyrell sat on his seat behind the mahogany desk, and started working on the files piled up in front of him."You shouldn't tell anyone because I say so." His voice didn't match the conflict going on in his mind.Samiel could only do as his future alpha orders. He knows how strong the
