Astrid's POVI was frozen in my place after I heard the two words from my brother about not just my mate, but my love's intention against me. Why did you hate me so much, Yun? What did I and my people ever do to you? If you could not love me, then why did you pretend and gave me hope of forever. Hope that I can see you every morning and kiss you while you kiss me back. Hope that we can cuddle, laugh and run around the palace all we want. Hope that you would decorate our mansion the way you want and always keep your mark.What kind of price was I paying to you?Unknowingly, a lone tear rolled down my eyes and my brother quickly wiped it. I looked up to find my brother's eyes watery too."I understand your pain. Please don't hold yourself back, brother. Cry if you want to. You don't deserve to be treated like this." Ulfred said gently and his hands caressed my hair and I nodded."I need time for myself." I said and stood up."Take as much as time that you need. I'll take care of everyt
Dark nightYuna's POV"Yun, I'm sorry I'm late." The voice said from above after opening the little window near the ceiling and I was confused and scared. Who could it be so late at night?The figure was dark under the moon light and I could not see the face but the voice was familiar as he jumped down but his legs did not make a noise as if he was trained for it.He landed in front of me and smirked. Calvin?"How did you..." I started weakly but could not finish the sentence as he took me in his embrace tightly."Oh God I was so freaking worried about you!" I hissed in pain when his hands wrapped around my bruised body and he quickly let me go."What the freaking fuck did they do to you?!" He whispered-yelled and fresh tears rolled down my cheeks. He sighed and patted my head before taking my tied up hands in his hand and started untying them. He quietly untied my legs and kissed my forehead. If he could help me get out of here, there was nothing more that I wanted than that. I stay
Some exposure of lifeYuna's POV"That's understandable." She cupped my cheek and smiled assuring that the pain will reduce with time. "Don't worry so much about it.""Yeah.""You want to eat something?" She said and stood up from the bed."Yes, please." I said and she giggled."Right away." She said and left before closing the door of the room.I looked at the closed curtain which his the total light coming from outside but some brightness still kept peeking inside the room. I sighed and leaned my back, still looking the curtains.Since two days, I've just been passing out and being tossed here and there by everyone.First, I woke up in such a unfamiliar new place which seemed to be a place I always live in, then I'm being escorted to the hospital and the results by the doctor was so unexpected for a human being.My blood had high amount of poison which can only be healed by a pure Alpha's blood. How was I alive then? How was I able to make this dead body function with my soul? It wa
The cozy RoomYuna's POVAfter a very chaotic morning which ended with breakfast, I was told to rest. I still needed time to heal and the headache was no better. No matter what, I was still shook by the incident. While everyone kept trying to cheer me up with their lame jokes, I knew what they were up to. But I could not just forget what I went through when even my bruises were still fresh. Calvin carefully laid me on the bed and covered me with a blanket. He closed the curtains which till this time were proving light in the room and turned to me."You want bonfire?" He asked gently, turning towards the bonfire in the room."Yeah, thanks." I replied calmly. He spent some time near the bonfire to the lit the fire and returned to me. He held my hand softly and kissed the knuckles."Call me whenever you want. Phone is here." He said and pointed at the table where my phone was kept."Yes." I whispered and he smiled before leaving my hand and walking towards the door.I saw his figure lea
During the DinnerYuna's POVCurrently, I was being escorted to the living room of the villa I was staying in by Alice who held me from the side as I was walking with her. I sat on the couch and looked around a bit. The villa was spacious for comfortable for five people and the decor was light grey and faint yellow. There was a chandelier at the ceiling in the centre of the living room and small lights on the ceiling in every corner. I rested my back on the couch and sighed."Dinner is ready." Harry chimed from the kitchen and I saw him walking outside with a frying pan in his hand and his torse wrapped with an apron.I stood up slowly and walked towards the dining table with Alice who pulled a chair for me. I won't say I was walking slow or felt any weakness in me, but they were just behind me all day. And I just wanted to feel normal so I insisted on having dinner on the dining table.I was walking fine and my wounds hurt just like yesterday when I got them but it was getting better
At the BreakfastYuna's POVThe next morning was a little peaceful than the previous day. We all gathered at the dining table while Harry and Mia set the table. By this time, I guessed that the five of us lived together and were not just a group of hunters but also friends. But I did not know the depth of this friendship nor did I know a single thing about them. Which could bring problems for me in the near future, and I knew that.I sat at my respective chair and served myself with the pasta and toppings when Calvin's phone rang grabbing all our attention. He looked at the caller ID and excused himself, leaving the table."Harry, what's up with your university? I heard that the dean had called your parents or guardian from your teacher but I got this detail from you." Alice broke the silent and asked Harry, looking at him."He called you? When?" He asked, laughing sheepishly."Harry, what did you do again?" Mia asked with an amusing tone."What would I do anything and why would I br
The OfficeYuna's POVMerlin Shaw, age 49, hometown California, learned Martial Arts from his father, has a younger brother Matthew Shaw who owns an academy to train what he learned.As if my brain was a machine, all of these information flash in my mind and I recall who this old man sitting on his chair like a king was. He was mischievous, gentle and too caring. And for some reason, Yuna never liked him. She was kinda rude to him and never answered his question or never really talked to him unless it included work.Now what work you'd say? Shield Agents was a team name and we were the hunters who worked together to protect the humans and also wipe out any territory which was dangerous for humans, or more precisely — The werewolves.I was amazed at the man's behaviour who looked so lethargic and relaxed as if the humans are not dying. Is that why Yuna never liked him?"Yuna, darling." Merlin called me and I woke up from my trance only to notice that I was looking down at the floor in
In the DungeonAstrid's POVI thought I was clear with my instructions since the day one but for some reason, there was always a flaw in my gaurds and there would always be something that went wrong then."Let me ask you again," I spoke, looking at the gaurd who was supposed to be standing and protecting the window of Yuna's prison, but for some reason, he was not there when she disappeared.His eyes were red and puffy due due to too much tears that shed the previous day and the lack of sleep and physically drained him. If it was some other time, I would have felt bad because he was werewolf just like me. I should not hurt anyone who never hurt someone else or had any bad intentions for anyone. But I was too angry to consider any rightful thoughts.It was his fault for being so ignorant to any foreign invader. If he does not learn his lesson now, then I was afraid there would even be an army of human soldiers coming towards the palace and he would be in some corner, attending a stupid
