NATALIE“ Put his head down. ” The twins shift and hiss at the intruder, Zero.His eyes are black, void of any white, like those of ghouls, vampires. He holds Abraham’s head between his hands, and everyone can’t help but cautiously watch him.An original can’t die unless their body is burned and gotten rid of. I know, the twins know until he has his head in the palms of his hands, Abraham can survive.“ Zero. ” Ryker calls out to him, his tone dark and dangerous.Zero glances at his friend before his eyes avert to the fire, burning close to me. My breath catches in my throat when he throws the bleeding head right into the fire. Something explodes before fire consumes Abraham’s head.The twins shriek, lunging for the head but not reaching it in time. Horror paints my face and makes my insides twist. I have never seen something sinister like this. The thing which scares me the most is the lack of any emotion on Zero’s face.We all get busy looking at Abraham’s ablaze head, his skin chip
Chapter 145
RYKERThe situation took a 180-degree turn. Zero was not supposed to show up. Yet he did and caught me off guard.I always knew he will go mad after seeing those Originals and I always kept him away from them. Those assholes executed his mother, put him in a coffin, and buried him underground for centuries, alive and breathing. Brutally, they cursed a child and made him face the horrors no one should ever go through.I understand why he lost his mind and went after them. Even in that state of mind, he never once attacked me but kept leaping for the Originals, as if he was desperate, dying to kill them right away.During all this, I was too distracted to notice what was wrong with Natalie. She was in pain, bleeding, and on the verge of losing the only thing which matters to us the most these days—our child.“ She will be fine, Alpha. ” Luciana whispers from behind me in a careful tone.I brought Natalie to the infirmary. She fainted after seeing Anne getting hit. Her blood count is as

RYKER“ It’s not funny, Alpha Ryker. ” Fredrick sighs. “ An all-out war with Vampires is always destructive. For them. And for us. ”I nod my head, the smirk plastered over my lips. “ So you fear war with Vampires? Why did you do it to the Vampire King’s son if you feared war with him? ”Wait. My face contorts, the smirk faltering. Vampire King’s son. The Vampire is kind of like some twisted uncle of mine who doesn’t know about my existence. So…what is it? Zero is my cousin? Centuries-old cousin? That’s good news but still so weird.I wonder if he always knew and remained by my side because of this. I must talk to him about it.“ All hybrids must be put to sleep. That was the law. We had to be fair and just when it came to burying them all. ” The twins cautiously answer me.“ Fair? ” My brows touch the sky. “ just? ” I chuckle quietly. “ You know those terms? Really? ” They roll their eyes as if some poison consumed them. So dramatic and disgusting.“ How was it fair…and just? You p

ANNEWas it one night? Two nights? A week? A month?A year?I can’t tell how much time passed. The deafening silence and the shortness of breath had my mind spinning with anxiety and something I rarely ever experienced and admitted; terror.Terror is always the first step to defeat—an exceptionally humiliating defeat. I hate defeat. But it seemed like all I was doing at that moment was losing. Against myself. Against the darkness, I was in. Against the horrifying memories playing before my eyes.I didn’t ever think I will ever plead for anything. Maybe, I would have done it for Natalie or Giana but not for myself, never for myself. I strengthened myself enough to never plead for my life or because of my suffering ever again but I did it. I pleaded for a long time when my lungs burned and I tried to move but couldn’t.It was like I was in a grave—A dark and deep grave. I was so alive, yet I felt dead. As I saw the memories from my childhood playing before my eyes like a horror mov

NATALIE “ Don’t talk to me. ” I groan when he pokes my shoulder. Ryker refused to bring Anne. And now, he is annoying me by poking my shoulder again and again. I am so damn worried thinking about what that strange man might do to her if she stays here. “ He is good to her. I swear. He will never hurt her. ” Ryke sighs when I refuse to turn around and face him after getting poked for the 29th time. “ I thought the same. But he did, didn’t he? I don’t even know what he did to her to make her scream like this. She was in pain…too much pain. I could sense it. ” I breathe, recalling how her eyes turned black as Zero’s do, and then she stopped moving. It was the worst experience of my life. First, my child was about to die and I was crying. Then, I saw my friend almost die at the hands of a man who had lost his shit. “ I made a deal with the Originals, Babylove. It’s best. For all of us. They agreed on passing the law about the hybrids and they healed Anne to avoid war with the Vampir

NATALIEStaring at my reflection in the mirror, I sigh. I am wearing an amber-coloured fascinating silk mikado dress with a geometric neckline embroidered with rhinestones and crystal. The neck is wrapped up by an imposing loop asymmetrically cut to the bies. It hugs my body at all curves, restricting me from moving too freely.When Ryker said he will initiate me as his official Luna, he was not joking. I realized this in the morning when he prepared everything in a matter of hours and asked me to get ready.I am still getting some bad vibes from this whole situation so I don’t know what to feel yet. Given that Ryker called all the hybrids he knew over so the Originals can pass the law after this ceremony today is making me more uneasy. The most bothering thing is the fact that Evangelina was not the angel I thought she was. She also stopped visiting me in the dreams just as Abraham was gone. It almost feels like she was doing all this for her own revenge or something more…I don’t kn

RYKER“ Alpha Ryker. Call everyone forth. ” The twins command as if I am dying to fulfill their demands.The large number of werewolves called over from the foreign packs watch as I gesture towards some specific men and they leave the crowd, stepping forth without any hesitance.“ I thought we all agreed on doing this after I initiate Natalie into my pack. ” I mention but I don’t have any problem with which event goes down first.“ So they all are the people we talked about? ” Kyrin and Kathie ask, malice shining behind their eyes which they can hide from almost everyone. Almost.“ Yes. ” I nod calmly.“ So, the thing is… ” The Originals don’t wait for Fredrick who disappeared I don’t know where some time ago.‘ Find him. And bring him here. He has to be here at a time like this. ’ I mindlink Zio and receive a curt ‘ Sure, Alpha. ’ from him in reply. This puts my nerves at ease momentarily. Everything is going according to the plan until now.“ Alpha Ryker here made some interesting d

RYKER“ Are you still not going to confess, Alpha Ryker? You know so many precious things are at stake here. Confess your crimes and save us all. ” Fredrick speaks in a suggestive tone.I don’t have to ask questions. I don’t even need to doubt what’s wrong. Just by his words and the smug aura, I can tell he has Natalie with him and he is going to use her to get to me.I thought the bullshit was over with Abraham’s death but…I don’t think it was all about it. Maybe, I missed something.‘ Find your Luna. They couldn’t have taken her far. ’ I can feel her close. I know she is here even if she has her connection blocked which is perhaps a result of a potion given to her by someone.‘ I am already on it. ’ Zio groans, sounding pissed which is good.Pushing past the steel wall of negative emotions and fears, I straighten up, preparing to stall time until Zio has Natalie.“ What’s the proof that she is not lying? Natalie has her place now. ” I glance at Britney momentarily who refuses to was
