***Melissa's POV***“Argh!” I screamed out in pain as the young witch continued to cast her spell. Presently, I had shifted back into my human form as I couldn't bear the immense pain from the burning I felt on my back. Just then, I heard my child scream out. I quickly turned around to see my child who was crying non-stop. If it were to be in another situation, I would have been annoyed at the fact that my child was crying so hard. But currently, I felt relieved that my child was crying because it was an indication that he was alive. The cries of my child suddenly gave me the strength I thought had been drained by the witch. “You think I'm going to let you win? Never!”I struggled to stand up on my feet while the Witch continued to cast her incantations. I wasn't concerned about what she was doing at that moment. Rather, what I was more concerned about was the fact that I had to escape from this coven after finishing off their witch. With the little power left in me, I shit my ey
***Melissa's POV***Arnold staggered backwards as he was stabbed. The knife she used was purely made of dark magic. That very instant, I noticed Arnold going pale. “No!” I screamed out in anger at what happened right in front of me. Just then, I force pulled me up from the floor and I couldn't tell how I did it but the next thing I knew, I was standing right in front of the witch whose hands had become bloody with my mate's blood. I gripped her on the neck and pulled her up. “How dare you put a finger on my mate! I swear, I'll never forgive you. You must pay with your life for what you've done to my mate!”That's all it took for me to snap her neck. When I realized the witch had finally been killed, I tossed her to the ground and turned around towards my mate, who was now lying helplessly on the floor with Xavier by his side. Seeing my mate struggling for his life made my heart ache terribly. I felt like I was going to die from the pain. I managed to carry myself to his side. “
Melissa povI sat on the floor in my room, looking out of the completely open window at the enormous wad of light overhead. Heavy clouds covered the sky as another stormy night fell.My room was illuminated by the flashing thunderbolts’ light as the wind shook the windows.I listened as the distant howls subsided under the full moon. I should have turned with the other Werewolves in the pack, but I was an extraordinary Werewolf. I had power and control over my shifting at any time.I looked sideways as the door of my room flung open and I saw my sister Jasmine stand in the door and gazing at me hatefully. She was holding a candle and a bowl. She strolled into the room and dropped the two of them on a table.Because I knew what she had come to do, I got up. I tried to defend myself as she approached me, but I felt an invisible force push me onto the bed.Jasmine used some dark arts she learned from a witch to take away my power every full moon because I was powerful. I cried as I tried
Melissa pov I awoke to a pounding headache and slowly opened my eyes. I glanced around and saw that I was lying on my bed in my room.With gritted teeth, I placed my palm on my aching forehead. I noticed that it was already evening when I glanced at the wall clock.When I looked at myself, I saw that my coffee-stained cloth had already been changed, and my face was still hurting from the coffee.I was extremely hungry, and my stomach was rumbling and aching. I saw the door open, and Jasmine walked into the room with a tray in her hand. In frustration, I signed internally. I was too weak to deal with her problems.I wondered what clever scheme she had planned this time as I examined the tray in her hand. I felt the sweet scent of food hit my nose and I felt the hunger I felt increase. Did she hold that food?Jasmine dropped the tray on the bed in front of me and said, “You fainted and I was so scared that something bad might happen to you.”I took a look at the food on the tray’s pl
Melissa povWhat have I done again?His eyes were filled with rage as he entered the kitchen. As soon as they stopped talking, everyone in the kitchen stopped working.With a piercing gaze and a disgusted expression, he glared at me.“What do you have on?” As he looked at my drenched and soiled dress, which had been soiled by Jasmine, he asked in a high voice.I mumbled in fear, “I…..I’m……..” not knowing what to say to him.“You’re participating in the general pack contest, which will be held shortly!” I flinched in fear when he yelled, thinking back to what Isabel had told me.In this condition, how could I even consider fighting!“You won’t embarrass this family by being late!” He yelled in rage and hurriedly pointed at the ground.“I had no idea,” I said and right away, he swung his hand at me and hit me in the face with the rear of his palm.I nearly slipped on the smooth marble floor and yelled in pain, but I held onto the sink behind me.“Never talk back at me!” He hollered at me
Melissa I was too embarrassed to face everyone in the square to return to my seat. Instead, I sat at the far end, near the exit, and watched the rest of the competition there.I recoiled in torment now and again, touching my hurting back. Due to my weakness, my broken ribs would take much longer to heal, and I could feel them.In most cases, it would take me about ten days to regain my strength, but once I did, there would be another full moon, and Jasmine would come back to take all my power.Regardless of how hard I battle her, she generally wins because of the dark magic she uses. Jasmine broke so many laws as wolves are not allowed to use magic or seek assistance from the Mages.My father disregards all that she does and the workers in the house dare not let out the slightest peep or they will be killed. I clearly can’t make any significant difference with it as I’m apprehensive how my dad would treat me.He generally let her have her way and she meddled with everybody around her
Melissa I felt like someone was watching me, so I looked over my shoulder once more. I was about to ignore it when I saw the human figure’s shadow in the distance. Who was it?I quickly got up and followed the figure as it got closer. The person’s gait seemed off and out of balance. As the individual drew nearer, the light of the full moon cast on him and I could see his face faintly.One of the men was always keeping an eye on the prisoners in the pack. Since Werewolves had a high tolerance for alcohol, I wondered how much he had consumed because he looked drunk.He lurched towards me and I hissed, irritated that he was upsetting the peaceful second I was having.“You.” He stumbled toward me and nearly fell over a rock, but he regained his composure.He slurred, “You’re that crazy daughter of Beta Kyle,” and stopped moving a few meters ahead of me.I demanded, “You’re drunk, go back right now,” in the hope that he would simply return to where he had come from.“Not yet dear,” he c
***Melissa's POV***I woke up feeling sore all over. I thought I was on my bed, and so I rolled, only to notice I was actually on the floor. Just then, I began to hear whispers. I slightly raised my head up only to see a group of pack members staring down at me. I creased my brow in a frown when I noticed the disgusted look I was given. I didn't understand why they were staring at me that way. It wasn't like I did something wrong. I looked down at myself, only to notice that I was without clothes. It was at that moment, I recalled what happened. I had been defiled, and the bastard didn't bother to cover up my nakedness. This was the worst that has ever happened to me. I quickly gathered the pieces of my dress to cover up, even though it didn't cover up all of my skin since the dress was torn. “What a slut she is. No wonder nobody likes her,” the pack members echoed to my hearing. I shook my head, scared of the problem I had just gotten myself into. This is just too shameful. What
