Two masked men entered the basement, which made Vincent and Brandon stood on their feet, wondering what these masked men had in mind for them. They unlocked Vincent’s jail cell before he was thrown to the corner by an unseen force, and his arms were bent behind him before they chained him with a silver chain. This was a work of magic, and Vincent was sure of it. He was dragged out of the jail cell into an interrogation room with just one light bulb above the chair on which he was being forced to sit down, and his chain was locked to the metal bar cemented on the floor.“Why do you want to know about the crest?” A voice asked him.Vincent looked around, searching for the owner of the voice. There was a figure stood in the darkness, staring at him. “I don’t know what you’re ta

Stefano trudged down the elegant stairs just to see Lucien was standing before a big portrait of Adeline — the real Adeline. Before Stefano brought Adeline back to his home, he had tampered with all the portraits in the castle. Nobody could tell the difference, but he doubted Lucien would be fooled like everyone else.“I didn’t expect the Mistress to have red hair,” Lucien pointed out as if he wanted to bait Stefano out of his white lies. “Where did you find her?”There were two families eligible for the High Lord’s seat; the De Lucca family and the De Vincenzo family, the two strongest families of Daemons. Both families knew each other from the beginning. They built the town together, but the De Lucca family established the High Council of Daemons. Naturally, one of the De Lucca family members was appointed as the High

Adeline followed Amanda to the second floor. As she passed rows of doors, she spotted one large wedding photo hung on the wall was a redheaded woman who looked like her. Adeline stopped and looked at the photo, admiring the similarity between them. Amanda stood by her side, looking at the photo as well.“Were you close with her?” Adeline asked.Amanda let out a breath. “We were. She was my mentor. Everything I know now is what she taught me for years. She was happy at her final few days.”“How did she die?”“She was killed by her stepbrother. You know, throne and family issues.”Adeline nodded. For power and wealth, everyone was ready to sacrifice their own family. It seemed thi

Vincent and Brandon groaned when the abductors threw them in the jail. They had been moving from one place to another in the past two days as if they were trying to shake off a tail that kept following them. “They’re tracking us down,” Vincent said after the abductors left the jail. “That’s why they’re moving us.”“Moving us around to make a wild goose chase,” Brandon grunted.Brandon had the worst condition than Vincent. His body was covered with burnt marks and dried blood from the wounds.“Better than nothing. Cohen is getting somewhere,” Vincent said, leaning against the wall. “All we can do is surviving this.”After a while, the abductors

After they had located the last known location, Cohen didn’t want to waste any more time. He led his tracking teams out as soon as possible. The lands they were covering were too much even with the help of three packs. He wanted to focus his mind on finding Mira, but he had to split his focus on finding Vincent and Brandon, too, with the current situation. He already failed to protect her. He couldn’t fail to defend his entire pack. What kind of Alpha would he become if he was unable to protect them?He walked to the dirt road that led to an abandoned mine and knelt to touch the dirt. There weren’t any tires’ tracks. This road hadn’t been driven on for a long time. Was he searching in the wrong place?“Alpha, there are some movements at the mine
