“N-no! It’s not like that!” I pleaded, tears swimming down my face. “I don’t want this! You have to believe me, please!” His large hand violently grabbed my throat, lifting me off the ground effortlessly. His fingers trembled with every squeeze, tightening the airways vital for my life. I coughed; choked as his anger burned through my pores and incinerated me internally. The amount of hate Neron holds for me is strong, and I knew there was no getting out of this alive. “As if I’ll believe a murderer!” Neron’s voice is shrill against my ears.

There is more than just history and bad blood between Neron Prince, Alpha of the Zircon Moon Pack, and Kiya Guerrero, the mate he cast aside—darkness is falling. A shadow born of anger, resentment, and betrayal is clouding Kiya’s judgment and perhaps any chance Neron has left to reach her heart. Walking on his difficult path toward redemption, Neron is determined to prove to those around him that he is a changed man, even if all his efforts seem in vain.

Book 3 of the Moonlight Avatar Series
Chapter 73 – You Must Fight “This kind of war, you gotta believe in what you’re fighting for.” – John Wayne Neron Our feet kicked up some pond water, six different ripples encircling our ankles. It was peaceful. I’ve long stopped crying, the itchiness in my throat a distant remembrance of my breakdown. Mom’s breathing echoed softly between us as held one of my hands in hers while Nuria rested her head on my shoulder. I still can’t believe this is happening. I’ve done nothing to deserve this, but here I am, staring at the tangible presences my lost family. Why couldn’t we have stayed this way? Why did they have to die? “Don’t give up, Nero.” Nuria whispered, her fingers brushing against the flower petals. I realized what she meant, but it didn’t lesson the doubt swimming in my head. “You can still save her.” of “Can I?” I exhaled, glimpsing at my reflection in the pool. My eyes are red and puffy. “Nuria, Kiya wants to kill me because I hurt her. I want to save her, but I can’t ignore the possibility that…I might not be able to. What if I can’t?” “What ifs are dangerous, my precious.” Mom squeezed my hand, pushing some strands of my hair behind my ear. Her thumb caressed my cheek. “But, you’re right. You hurt that darling and it stuck with her for years, but it wasn’t just you. Everyone, whether they directly harmed her or turned the blind eye, are also responsible…. including your father.” Hurt laced in her last words. I looked into her eyes and saw an amalgamation of pain and shame. Coming to terms that your mate abused a child couldn’t be an easy thing to deal with. Kiya used to refer to my mom as her aunt because she was close with her family. Mom loved her like she was her own. Maybe how Mom feels now is what Kiya felt every time she saw me for the first time. I squeezed her hand to let her know that I’m still here, but I wonder. Did Mom see everything? How else would she have known? I glanced at Nuria to see the same amalgamation in her eyes. “Your father and you used Nuria and I as scapegoats for the abuse. Who Lady Sanguine is today directly results from that. You’ve done wrong, and it is your job to make it right.” I nodded. Lady Sanguine didn’t appear on a whim; Zircon Moon, collectively, created a weapon of our own destruction and she won’t stop until we’re all gone. “I know Mom, and I’m so sorry. I missed you and Nuria so much, and then Dad started talking and “Shh.” Mom held a finger on my lips to shush me. Then, she leaned in and pressed a firm kiss on my forehead. “You were suffering, I know. But abuse is never justifiable. You cannot erase pain by causing pain to another.” “Everyone knows Kiya isn’t responsible for what happened to Mom and I.” Nuria huffed, kicking her feet up. “She never was, and we never blamed her. Dad just hates her. It’s not even about losing us anymore!” “However,” Mom intercepted. “The difference between you and your father, Neron, is that you’re learning from your mistakes. Not many people can do that.” “Are you ashamed of–me, Mom?” I inquired, anxious. “Are you, Nuria? Kiya was your best friend.” 1/5 Not was, She is my best friend.” She corrected with a glower. “At first, I was deeply ashamed of you. I was furious, Selene showed us everything–the least painful parts, I suppose. You do not know how much I wanted to march out of heaven and strangle the shit out of you.” “Nuria.” She gulped. “Sorry, Mommy. What I meant to say is yes, I was ashamed, but not anymore, Neron.” “And neither am 1.” Mom sighed, swinging her feet as she entered deep thought. “Zircon Moon is not what it used to be. I can’t love it anymore. But it is not your responsibility to carry everyone’s sins. You only carry your own, baby boy.” “I should’ve done something, Mom.” I retorted, grinding my teeth. It doesn’t matter than neither of them are ashamed; I have enough of it to last a lifetime “I’m her mate! It is my job to protect her, and I failed, back then and now! All I wanted was Dad’s love, and I hurt her to get it, and it turned out to be a load of bullshit. He never cared about me and look at the consequences! It’s because of me she killed herself and its because of me that Osiris has her. And now, she wants me dead. How can I help free Kiya from the darkness if I trigger her hatred?” “You love her, right?” Nuria asked. “I do. So much.” “Then you need to fight, Neron. Fight harder than you’ve ever done before. Your mate bond with Kiya went through hell and back, but its still there. Your love for her has to shine through this time. Losing her to another who wants her purely for her power, is not an option!” “How do I do that?” “You have to figure that out on your own, skatten min. We can’t tell you how to reach to her. There is an answer; you just have to find it.” “And it won’t be easy.” Nuria added. “The question is, are you up for the challenge?” Fate piled the past against me. Fate pile the present against me. My past behavior and actions are piled against me. All sank into a melting pot that molded into who Lady Sanguine is today; a manifestation of Kiya’s anger and hatred toward all who wronged her. But when I held her, she had every opportunity to kill me. My throat was exposed for her blade to take what it wanted, but she didn’t. Instead, I saw the real Kiya drowning in a raging sea with no one to help her. I’ll never free myself of the guilt of hurting her. Ever. I’ll carry that sin until the day I die. Can I help save Kiya? I don’t know. Am I the one who can save her? I don’t know that either. But I will try. The future is uncertain, and danger continues to make its presence known, but I won’t run away. “I can’t lose her, Mom.” I confided, pain pulsing in my veins once again. “She has to come back, for her Chapter 73 – You Must Fight family’s sake.” “For their sake and yours too. Don’t forget about yourself!” Nuria added, giving me a playful shove. I said nothing. Mom patted my long tresses with a loving smile. “Whatever you do and whatever path you take, know that Nuria and I are with you.” “We’ll always be at your side, big bro, right Mom?” Nuria shot a wink at Mom, who rolled her eyes and lightly. kicked her feet in the water. My sister giggled before patting me on the pack. I wonder what that’s all about. Speaking with Mom and Nuria rejuvenated me. Hearing their words of encouragement was enough to douse out the harsh words Dad implanted in my head. He doubted my abilities and competence to be a leader, and I doubted myself. If my father didn’t believe in me, why should I? I tried hard to appease him, but nothing worked. But now, with the two most important women in my life, I felt like anything is possible. Mom and Nuria couldn’t stay for long. They have to leave. A spasm of loneliness entered my heart, tugging at my heartstrings. I grabbed onto their hands for dear life like a child frightened of being left alone. I just got them back. A dream is a dream, but to me and the child–like innocence left inside me, this was a paradise. Part of me didn’t want to wake up; it wanted to indulge in the love Mom and Nuria have for me. When I wake up, I’ll be alone again and they’ll be in their graves. But I have to leave also, because the real world won’t wait for me to get my bearings. I have to bring Kiya back to the light, even if it means my death. I love Mom and Nuria more than I love myself, and with my palms pressed together, I quietly thanked my Moon Goddess for blessing me with the opportunity to see and chat with my family again. Our lives would’ve been so different if they were still alive. But, for now, I’ll relish this moment while it lasts. With the women I love. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 162” »

Chapter 71 – Memory Recall “Things end but memories last forever.“– Unknown Anthony A new summer’s day starts off with the sun blessing my lands and the echoes of my wolves bombarding the air. It is something I look forward to each morning, and it fills my heart with joy. Happiness is no stranger to me as every day brings more warmth and possibilities for greatness and progress. Today wasn’t one of those days. News of the attack on Zircon Moon didn’t just reach my ears, but it crossed state lines. It is unheard of that a lone enemy can destroy a good portion of a titular pack, but it struck fear in the strongest hearts. Because of this, Alphas all over have increased security around their territories in case the threat spreads. No one was taking any chances. I followed suit. Security around the perimeters of my terrain increased in expectation that we might be next on Osiris‘ hit list. My members had asked why the sudden change when Garnet Moon was the safest pack on the West Coast, but I assured them it was a precautionary measure. I couldn’t tell the whole truth, for it would raise alarms. However, nothing could prepare me when Jacqueline and the others recounted the horrific details of the attack. They’ve arrived in the morning with heaviness in their hearts and sadness in their eyes. As if someone ripped their hearts out of their chest. Descriptions of the blood, the screaming, and the terror made it feel as if I was there on that calamitous night–and knowing they couldn’t do a thing to help is a type of helplessness I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. I couldn’t describe the gut–wrenching sensation I felt when I learned that my little sister led the charge. Corrupted. Misled by a snake in the grass. One bite of the poisonous fruit and she turned into a beast with Osiris holding the leash. All of what Lucien, Phoebe, and Nadia speculated not too long ago molded into the truth; Kiya could be beyond reach. If her friends couldn’t get through to her, what could? Kiya slaughtering people struck a lightning bolt of fear into my spine. I didn’t believe it was my little sister; the most humble and benevolent wolf that I know, aside from my mother. She isn’t the type to hurt people, no matter how angry she got. The group described an unhinged, vengeful animal, not Kiya. I refuse to call her by that wicked alias Osiris gave her. His name awakens an anger in me I never thought existed he took my family. He is a dead man as soon as I get my hands on him! Telling my parents wasn’t easy. Watching the devastation on their faces demanded that I repent for the sin of upsetting them. The light left my mother’s eyes as she cried, and the unspoken sadness in my father hurt deeply. I wanted to comfort them, but I knew it wouldn’t work. Mom looked like she hadn’t slept in days. Dad confirming it only aggravated my pain. They need Kiya back. I couldn’t afford to waste time. We have to find Kiya and bring her home; even if it means dragging her kicking and screaming. If anyone knew answers about where Osiris is, it is Nadia and Lucien. Desperate times 1/6 call for desperate measures. 1 needed Phoebe’s expertise. “You think Nadia and Lucien know where Osiris‘ main base Is?” Phoebe asked, carrying her black, thick book as we walked to the couple’s safe home. “Nadia said before that they didn’t know where they were coming from.” “I’m aware of that, but I believe if we keep pushing, they can recall things they couldn’t recall before.” I explained. “Is there anything in that book of spells that can help?” “It’s called a grimoire.” Phoebe answered with a playful eye–roll. “But, yes. There are spells in here for memory recall. To be transparent with you, these are the spells I don’t touch nor perform on a whim. These spells don’t just make the person recall specific memories; they can recall any–good and bad.” “I see. There is the risk that we might retraumatize them.” “Exactly. Memories are powerful, but some are better left buried and forgotten.” The witch paused for a moment and sighed, as if she was trying to push back some memories of her own. “We don’t know the full extent of what Nadia and Lucien experienced at Osiris‘ hands. They remember more than what their brains allow them to. What do you hope to gain from this?” “A way to know Kiya’s location. Osiris kept his business hidden–we know that, but if they’re able to recall things in the environment, it can point us in the right direction. We may not know the city, state, hell even the zip code of where they were, but I need something to work with.” The weight in my chest is back, pressing against my heart. I…I can’t believe what Kiya has become. She…it isn’t possible.” “Anything is possible, Anthony.” Phoebe hugged her grimoire when she faced me. “Darkness and light have a complicated relationship. It isn’t as black and white as everyone thinks it is. Kiya is an amazing person with a great heart, but even those with big hearts struggle with their darkness–the feelings they’re forbidden to express. Just as Lucien said, if Osiris senses a weakness, he’ll exploit it and whether we like it or not, Kiya had many that she hid very well.” “You really thought about this, didn’t you?” “Yep.” She nods. “But not all hope is lost, Anthony. You’re going to get your sister back. We just need to get creative and look at other avenues we haven’t thought of before. And take risks.” “I don’t take risks.” “You take calculated risks.” She smiled as we resumed walking. “But I don’t have to touch you to know that you fear the future.” It was my turn to pause. Goddamnit, I love and hate Phoebe’s perceptiveness. Yes, I’m scared. The image of my little sister in my mind is flawless and polished–I remember her as how I left her at Zircon Moon months ago. I haven’t seen her since. But, with these recent developments, I’m afraid of that perfect image distorting into something grotesque. Kiya, though every flaw and blemish she has, is still perfect in her own way. I hate the circumstances that led up to this. “Talk about it to someone.” Phoebe called out some distance ahead of me. “I’m not the most ideal person, but someone else could be.” “I’ll keep that in mind.” As we drew closer to Nadia and Lucien’s home, I noticed a familiar pair walking toward their front door. Confused as we were, Phoebe and I trotted up to them. “Mom? Dad?” They turned to face me, shocked that I was even here. “What are you both doing here?” “We were…” Mom hesitated a bit, eyeing Dad for help. “…wondering if Nadia and Lucien could answer some questions for us.” “About?” “Where the snake lives.” Dad answered blandly. “Looks like we’re on the same wavelength.” Phoebe chuckled. “We’re going to do the same thing. Wouldn’t it be overwhelming for the four of us to be here?” “I don’t care.” Mom replied, firm in her stance. The light in her eyes is coming back, but it is not as prominent as before. “I’m sick of not knowing, and I’m sick of waiting. Those two rested for long enough and I need answers on how I can get my baby back!” Despite our protests, Mom stalked to the white door of the modest house and knocked so hard the door shook. She was a woman on a mission–a mission formed out of desperation and impulsivity. When we caught up, we heard a yelp and rummaging echoing in the interior. Curious, I press my ear against the door to listen in. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 160” »
Chapter 70 – Prisoner of War “And…here…we…go…” “The Joker; The Dark Knight Osiris Iron and rust. What once gleamed under the flickering light eroded away from the nipping windchill, and the raining of sorrowful tears. The prisons are no place for the weak; the presence roaming the halls devours hope and spits out despair with a menacing grin akin to actual monsters. Monsters with rows of teeth and claws demanding the offering of unmarred flesh and blood. Certainly, I’m not that type of monster. But a monster. The jails are quiet tonight despite our new guests in its cells. Three adults snatched from their home under the conquest of vengeance. My steps echo through the dreaded atmosphere as the events tonight replayed in my mind with vigor. Just like that, I’m smiling for the thousandth time tonight! Observing the miserable pack responsible for the destruction of my life corrode in the storm of chaos was a dream come true. Death and blood mingled like lovers, stealing the breaths of man and woman alike without remorse. And my Little Moon was their angel of death. There was a beast inside her all along, starving for the freedom it deserved. Her fun was my form of excitement and humiliating her pitiful mate was my entertainment. The light in his eyes, fueled by determination, died with defeat after defeat. Alphas hate losing; it breaks their fragile little hearts because they’re used to being kings. Hell, they are kings. Alas, the beat–down surely humbled Neron. He couldn’t touch me. He can’t touch me. I’m a god and he is a lowly mutt; he never stood a chance, and he knew it. And now, I have two things he cares about the most in his world. His father and his mate. Too bad he’ll lose both. I walked past the cells of Ashley and Steven Lane, chained to the wall like mutts, unconscious upon the grimy floor. Separated in distant jails, my Lady knew it will weaken their bond, therefore making their inevitable deaths painful beyond belief. Lady Sanguine did quite the number on them as their wounds are slow to heal. They begged and pleaded with her until she knocked them out with a blow to the head, sick of their whining. I wonder what she has in store for them. But I don’t care about those meat sacks. My eyes are on Jonathan Prince. I cannot touch Titan Prince, but I’ll do so through his grandson. Haggard breathing echoed in response to his exhaustion as the rusted chains behind him held his slanting. body up. Auburn hair curtained his somber eyes, dark strands in harsh contrast to his paling skin. His clothing is disheveled because of the rough handling by my subordinates and partner. In all honesty, Jonathan Prince was a sight for sore eyes! 1/5 Breaking down an Alpha is an art few can master. It doesn’t mean I won’t try. Who is to say I can’t have a little fun myself before Lady Sanguine casts the first stone to his death? His blues shot open when I opened his prison doors. The chains that held him captive sung a sour tune as he growled and struggled with the desire to kill me. It was hard to not laugh at his weakness, but I did. Titan’s face molded into Jonathan’s, snarling at me with heavy–duty hatred that did nothing but irritate me. I wanted to wipe his gruesome face from my mind for good. “How do you know my grandfather?” He wastes no time jumping to the point. I ambled toward the wall, leaning against it as I stared the defenseless man down. Being this close to him, I can smell his scent; identical to Titan’s. Jonathan Prince is no more, but a bastardized version of my abuser. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. “Titan Prince and I were less than acquaintances.” I spat out. “Your old man was quite skilled at striking down those he deemed undeserving of his kindness; a talent you inherited, apparently. “He’s been dead for a long time, you fool. Whatever high horse your riding on, it is about time you got off.” “Death does not and will not absolve him of the crimes he committed. He no longer walks the earth, but his legacy does. And I plan to end it.” Jonathan arched an eyebrow as the realization hit him. He chuckled and shook his head. “You were a member of Zircon Moon, weren’t you? Either that or you came from another. It is odd; you don’t smell like a werewolf. You’re just a full–blooded leech.” “I’ll take that as a compliment.” I chuckled, crossing my arms. “Smelling like a dog causes more problems. The advantages of getting rid of my wolf outweighed the consequences, including the freedom from being tied down to a waste of a pack like yours.” “You killed your wolf?” “Yes.” “How?” “That is for me to know and for you to never find out.” “Why did you attack my home?” “Zircon Moon needs to die.” Memories of my childhood attacked my mental defenses, flocking in once a crack in the barrier was exposed. Anger filled my veins like fire trailing spilt gasoline, threatening to explode. “I’ll let you in on a little secret, Jonathan Prince. There is no way in the fiery pits of hellfire did you all deserve the endless blessings over many decades of your pack’s existence. From afar, I watched it grow in number and abundance–birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and so much more. I watched Alpha after Alpha reign over your land as if it wiped their sins clean. Zircon Moon lived long and prospered despite the bloodied uprising filled to the brim with tears, death and torment.” I grabbed the primitive man by the chin and forced him to look at me. I wanted him to feel every drop of Chapter 70–Prisoner of War hatred I have for his damn bloodline and his pack. “Your grandfather ruined my life! He destroyed my family- my mother, my father, and my older brother, and he destroyed the love of my life because of his obsessive need for power. You and your son, his living descendants, carry his sins. The only way to mend that is to destroy your bloodline for good!” “What my grandfather did to you has nothing to do with me or Neron. I don’t know you, nor do I care about a beast who slaughtered innocents on my land!” A vein pulsated in Jonathan’s neck, desperate for my attention. One cut with a knife and he’s done for. “Painting my grandfather to be a monster is your prerogative if you wish to continue your fantasy of getting revenge on a dead man. You proclaim him to be a monster, but I see one right before my eyes. If he allegedly killed your family and your lover, it must’ve been within good. reason.” I heard a crackle, and then with pain radiating through my fists, Jonathan’s head shot back with a deep groan. I stood above him, feeling my fangs poke at my bottom lip. My hand is still curled up in the fist that socked him in the nose. Titan’s face wore like a mask over Jonathan and it refused to leave. His cackling rung through the darkness of my mind, haunting me like a ghost. It taunted at my weakness and cruel existence as a hybrid. And here is his offspring, sculpted into his perfect liking. I hated him. Oh, Lord Apophis, I hated him! “Was it within good reason for your bastard idol to mark, rape, and impregnate my lover?” Jonathan went mute. I got him. “Amber, an innocent soul, a victim of the circumstances Titan brought her in. Only lusting after the power she had, not her beauty, and the desire to keep her as his breeder. Children of avatars are non- existent. But he was determined to make the first, even if it meant her pain. Sound familiar?” The former Alpha was reticent for what seemed like an eternity before he spoke again. “I don’t believe you. My grandfather was a good man! He wouldn’t do anything like that, least of all to Selene’s avatar.” “I don’t expect you to. Prince wolves are notorious for deflecting responsibility. You all refuse to hold yourselves accountable for the horrors you inflict on innocent people. Titan did it to Amber, and you did it to Kiya. Different circumstances, yet the same action and brutality. If Kiya wasn’t your son’s destined mate, your would’ve kept her for yourself.” … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 159” »
Chapter 69 – Sweet Sacrifice “Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.“–Ray Bradbury Lady Sanguine When Jonathan came out of hiding, the world stopped. Osiris” silent command swept through the minds of the witches and hybrids to cease their attacks; focusing their attention on the former Alpha. I heard not a single whimper or exhale. Still, in his old age, radiates power and dominance that demanded respect and control. If I still was a feeble slave, I’d surely would’ve cowered back into my cell, hoping the darkness would quell the intensity of his glare. Now, with pale blue eyes shifting from Osiris to me, Jonathan didn’t bother to hide his disgust and contempt. To insult an Alpha is to trespass on the land they’re so proud of and cause trouble. Judging by the thickened aroma of death and blood in the air, we practically spat in his face. Hate cannot describe how I feel about him. The man who destroyed me doesn’t get to be blessed with the luxuries of life. My eyes burned and blood pumped harder in my body to accommodate the bloodthirstiness in my veins. “I’m the one you want Kiya, is it not?” Jonathan questioned in our exchange of piercing glares. “Instead of destroying my community, you should’ve found me instead.” “It’s not wise to poke the bear when it is enraged, Jonathan Prince.” Osiris chuckled. Neron held onto me harder as I struggled in his grasp again, ready to pounce on his dad. “The grandson of Titan Prince shares the same face as the madman who set the course of this pack’s fate. It is uncanny.” “I don’t know who you are or why you know my grandfather, but I won’t allow you to harm my pack any longer!” “Or what?” Osiris asked, cocking his head to the side. “You’re outmatched, Jonathan. Attack and I’ll snap your body into two. Or my Lady will cut your head off your shoulders. A lone Alpha will never be a match to an avatar.” “Then allow me to consider an offer.” My interest piqued. My struggles in Neron’s arms ceased, his warmth enveloping me once again. Osiris lowered the hand that prepared to attack Diana and gave Jonathan his full and undivided attention. Above me, Neron growled as he jerked his head toward his father. “What the hell are you doing, Dad?!” “Doing what you obviously cannot: protect this pack.” Ouch. Even I felt that sting. Neron mumbled something incoherent, but I paid no mind as I’m intrigued by what this ‘offer‘ is. “In exchange for sparing my pack and my son, I’ll surrender myself to you.” Neron’s breath hitched above me, and my eyes widened. The suggestion sparked a dissonance of conversation amongst enemies and my friends, pondering on Jonathan’s mental state. Why is he sacrificing himself? He was met with opposition from the soldiers and members who were still alive, begging him to reconsider, but his deep growls instantly silenced them. 1/5 “Why should I accept?” “It isn’t about you, but about her.” Jonathan shifted his focus onto me. “You want revenge? You want me to pay for the years I’ve taken from you? This is your chance. You can have me only if you leave my son out of your madness.” “You don’t tell me what to do!” I hissed, hiding Diana’s tiny body in a nearby bush. I don’t want her to get hurt because of me. “You think your futile attempt to appease me will stop fate?! Your son and your pack will follow you in your death!” “Kiya, stop it!” Neron demanded, now clasping his large hands around my wrists. “Let go of me, asshole! I want nothing to do with you!” “My Lady.” Osiris‘ voice flooded my mind and the mark on my neck throbbed with his presence. Neron might think I’ve stopped because of him, but I didn’t. “Think about it. The Alphas deserve to suffer, do they not? They collectively caused you pain and suffering. Kill Jonathan and Neron suffers the loss of his family right before his death. A perfect way for him to feel how you lost yours, hmm?” Puzzle pieces connected to create the bigger picture. It all made sense to me. Jonathan’s death will seal the destiny of Zircon Moon, since most of these bastards would rather follow him than his son. Neron can feel the last of his familial bond snap before I cut his heart out of his chest, damning the Prince bloodline to an eternity burning in hellfire. Then the pack will cease to exist. But Jonathan doesn’t deserve to die on the land he loves so much. No. That is a luxury he cannot afford. Lucky for him, I’ll be the one deciding his fate. Just as he condemned me to suffering, I will do the same to him with him on his knees and my blade above his head. The former Alpha will bow to the former slave. Cackling erupted from my lips as I felt the bloodlust consume me once more. Knowing Neron is too damn scared to hurt me, I summoned my newfound powers to pry the both of us apart. The poor man was launched back so hard that he slammed into a tree, grunting in pain. He can resist Osiris, but he can’t resist me–and I’ll use that weakness to my advantage after I take care of his father. Our touchy connection went on for too long. It had to end, especially when I felt that faint tickle in my heart. “Very well then, Jonathan Prince.” I spoke, my voice falling to an octave when I returned to Osiris‘ side where he wrapped his arm around my waist. “I accept your offer under one condition.” His eyes widened in confusion. “Ashley and Steven will come as well. Kill three birds with one stone.” “You can’t do that to your parents.” do that to vo “You underestimate just how far I’ll go to make you pay.” I snarled at him. For a second there, I thought I saw him flinch. Having power over my abuser, after so long, is exhilarating. I needed more of that feeling. “We’ll be taking our fun elsewhere. Zircon Moon will live, for now.” On cue, a couple of witches dragged out a struggling Ashley and Steven from the forest, entrapping them with their black magic. They pleaded with me to let them go, but I ignored them. Cerberus got behind Jonathan, knocked him out with a hit to the head, and threw his limp body over his shoulders. Osiris calls for the army to return to the shadows, dropping whatever they were doing and fading into the thick blackness behind the vast oak trees. “Kiya, please don’t go.” Neron’s voice was like a lance piercing me through the heart. His rising body appeared in my peripherals, ready to grab me back to his side. I should hate him. I do hate him, but I hate the way he is affecting my heart more. Quickly, I created a translucent wall swimming with black and red wisps of energy next to me, separating the both of us. I didn’t want him touching me. You’re stronger than this!” He shouts, pounding his fists against the wall. He hits and hits until it settles in his thick skull that he can’t do anything about it. Defeated, he fell to his knees, hanging his head low. “This isn’t what you’re meant to do. You have a heart, a soul, and a spirit that can’t be tainted. You belong in the light, not lost in the darkness. I know the real you is somewhere buried underneath all that hatred and I won’t stop until you come back! Don’t walk away from me, Kiya!” Gosh, I wish he’d shut up! “Quiet!” I shouted at him. Great, another fucking headache is in the works. “Don’t be so eager to die, Neron; your turn will come sooner than you think. All this begging will get you nowhere, and I guarantee that the only way you’ll get me back in your arms is with my knife in your throat. Be thankful that your father’s sacrifice prolonged the inevitable.” I didn’t want to be here anymore. Everywhere I turn is a goddamn distraction–Neron, my friends, Diana, and even Raina. Clearing my head is the only option to … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 158” »
Chapter 68 – Playtime “Pleasure is sweetest when ‘tis paid for by another’s pain” – Ovid Lady Sanguine The essence saturating my former parents” room flooded my mind with memories freed from their burial chambers. Memories of hiding under their bed to spook them fresh out of the shower or drenching my clothes in Ashley’s expensive perfume. My childlike innocence lingering in the corners of the teal walls, fading away to nothingness. There’s no question that I loved Ashley and Steven–they were my world, my role models, and my protectors rolled into one. A part of my heart still aches for them; a relic of my younger years that wished for them to call me their Princess again. But they stripped their princess of her crown because of their cowardliness. I hated this ache. Dull. Bothersome. Gripping the hilt of my bloodied blade, I had the choice to carve it out of my chest or eliminate the source. Who am I if I didn’t choose the latter? It is why I’m here, isn’t it? A sparkle suddenly flashed in my peripherals. I turn to the black vanity table ornamented with jewelry and framed family pictures. The magnetic pull of the sparkle drew me to a gold necklace resting in a small box lined with black velveteen, glittering underneath the fluorescent lighting. My eyes bulged out of their sockets. It wasn’t an ordinary gold necklace. Hooked around the bail was a bumblebee pendant with its wings spread. I picked it up by the pendant to flip it over, fingers running over the engraving. “To our little Honeybee.” “I’m not a little bee! I’m a big bee!” A voice echoed in my head, loud and proud. Tears pricked my eyes as 1 remembered how I got this necklace. My Sth birthday. “You’ll always be our little bee, Hali.” Ashley replied with overflowing love. I can feel her hands smoothening out my wild curls. “Even if you become a big bee, you’ll be the queen of the hive!” “I won’t get a king? Why isn’t there a king bee?” “Because the queer queen doesn’t need a man at her side.” Steven chuckled before poking my nose, making me squeal. “No man is good enough for my baby girl, let alone to be her king.” “Ah, love, you’ll eat those words when she gets older! Her mate is somewhere out there, waiting for her.” “Ew!” I cringed, sticking out my tongue. “That means kissing. Gross! You and Daddy do it all the time. Aren’t you scared of cooties?” “Adults don’t get cooties, baby girl.” “They must get something, then.” “They get babies.” Raina butted in, earning a push on her shoulder from Ashley, laughing. “Can’t we eat some cake now? I’m dying here!” “It’s my cake!” I stuck my tongue out at my older sister. She retaliated the same way, squinting her eyes. the queen bee today and what I say goes!” “What do you say then?” “Time for cake!” “I’m Laughter echoed like a siren song throughout my skull, dissipating like smoke in the wind. The dull ache graduated to a resonate agony. I grabbed my chest with my free hand and tried to breathe through the pain. I hated it! How could they love me one year and treat me like trash the next? It makes no sense to me! I dropped the necklace on the ground and crushed the bee beneath my heel. Broken memories will stay broken. No matter how many feel–good memories I have, they’re constantly eclipsed over the pain ravaging my body like a recalcitrant beast. They need to pay for what they did to me, no matter what! However, not all prey will accept their fate with ease. The bathroom doors suddenly burst open, and a body tackled mine to the ground. My blade flew out of my hands, hitting a distant wall. Nutmeg assaulted all my senses and my body roared to life for a fight, struggling and biting against my restraints. “How dare you!” dare you!” I howled, scratching my knees against the carpet. “Let me go!” “I can’t let you hurt anyone else, Kiya!” Steven bellowed, grip tightening around my wrists. “This isn’t the way to get revenge! You’re hurting innocent people!” “No one in this fucking pack is innocent! I’ll kill everyone if it’s the last thing I do!” Sweaty hands held my legs down, and I continued to thrash and kick. Ashley’s sickening voice entered my ears in a twisted melody. “Think about what you’re doing, Honeybee! Can you live with yourself knowing you hurt other people? Listen to us for once in your life!” “Don’t fucking call me that! I was never your Honeybee! You tore off my wings and left me for dead!” Surrendering into my red–hot rage, I freed a leg from her grasp and kicked Ashley in her chest, launching her into a wall. Literally. She slid to the ground in a painful heap and I bashed the back of my head to Steven’s jaw, drawing blood. When he slackened his hold, my elbow struck his stomach to where he toppled over. Weak like an old man. I wanted them dead! I wanted them out of my life! They’ve been allowed to live for too long, but it’s time for them to go! “You want to repent for your sins? Your repentance is your death!” The thing about darkness is that it is easily manipulated. With the wave of my hand, I can make it do anything that I wanted. I’m the puppeteer, and the living black is my marionette. Impenetrable black filled the room where only my eyes pierced the opaque fog. Choking echoed through the horrid atmosphere; strips of black wrapping around Ashley and Steven’s necks like snakes to their prey, lifting their bodies in the air. Then, the anthem of breaking glass blitzed the air without remorse. 2/5 Chapter 65 – Maytime Pleasure rocketed through my body with reckless abandon as I seized my fallen blade off the floor. Ashley and Steven writhed in pain outside on the ground, oblivious of the next stage of my vengeance. Chaos ruled the atmosphere, but their screams of death will make for a lovely tune to calm my black heart. This is every predators‘ dream; to have their prey helpless underneath their preeminence. The anticipation of knowing they have the power to dictate if they live or die is glorious! I’m hopelessly addicted and in need of another fix. “Ready or not, here I come!” Hopping on the window ledge, I aimed my blade above my head, focusing on Steven. I’ll kill Dear Ol‘ Dad first, then Sweet Mama after she feels her mate bond die. Unable to contain my maddening giggles, I leaped into the air and descended to the ground like a dark angel descending from the murky corners of heaven. Unfortunately, the panic of my prey saved them. Instead of my blade finding its place in Steven’s skull, is buried in dirt. The couple rolled out of the way and escaped into the forest in a frenzy. Giggling, I rose on my heels and followed them, relishing in each panicked step and sob of terror. This must be what stalkers feel like. Their fear and bloody aroma added to the excitement of the chase! … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 157” »
Chapter 67 – Lady Sanguine “Every villian is a hero in his own mind.“– Tom Hiddleston Lady Sanguine “No children. No pregnant women. Do not touch the Gammas. Deviate from my rules and your lives are mine to take. Understand?” “Yes, my Lady.” I feel alive! Fire simmering in my veins combusted into a raging wildfire by the pungent consternation involuting through the atmosphere. Adrenaline danced a sweet tango with the flames, and my senses heightened beyond measure. I can feel the pulsating heartbeats of the wolves as they ran for their lives. A body or magic blocked safety points across the land, effectively trapping the mutts to face the death itself. The same fear I was taught to embrace for my survival brings the wolves to their much–deserved fate. I was sick of being the good girl; swallowing my thirst for revenge to stay on the blistering, painful path of light. Demolishing my life to pieces earned Zircon Moon the blessings that should’ve been mine. As I mourned the loss of my years to torture, they celebrated in their slice of heaven. A paradise thrived above the hell below. Benedictions galore–births, weddings, parties, celebrations–everything Zircon Moon didn’t deserve, they still got. That wasn’t fair. What about my life? What about my losses? I never got retribution for them and will never experience the joys and turmoil of graduating from school, having my first dumb kiss at thirteen, running to my Mom for first period advice, homecoming, prom, and so much more. At seventeen, I had to play catch–up because this pack took everything from me. Including my innocence. Tears of my oppression will make for storm surges of vengeance. Bathing the wicked land with blood is the only solution. All the agony, night terrors, and sadness will all come to a screeching halt once I wipe this pack from existence. It needs to happen. But my heart doesn’t beat to the tune of revenge and death. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. No. This beat is different. My heart throbs to the ballad of pain, drumming against my ribcage with incredible force. Why? Why is this happening? “Kiya, stop this!” Abigail. “Little Bit, come on! Wake up from this nightmare!” Jackie. “You’re so much better than this! Don’t let the evil control you!” Sapphire. “I know you’re listening, Kiki. Don’t do this, please.” Galen. “We know you Kiki; if you do this, you’re going to regret it. Please, walk away!” Darien. My friends. Their begs and pleas latched around my arms and waist like chains, pulling me from entering the haze of crimson retribution. Sadness dripped from their every syllable as it extinguishes the flames burning in my body. They want me back; to step back on the path of light once again. I feel the chains tighten and my head pounded with a rapidly approaching headache, enticing a whimper from my lips. They don’t understand why I’m doing this. I wish they could take a step inside my head and see what it really is like carrying the burden I didn’t deserve. I feel their love and care. They’re the good ones. What did I do to deserve them? As I was to turn around and reach for my friends, something stopped me. A dark miasma surged in my mind again, shooting their words down. It seized my soul and pumped my body with intense darkness. Osiris” presence looms and slithers like a viper ready to strike its venom in me again and again. He snuffed out the light, and my thirst for blood and death awakened anew. “You can’t afford to have distractions, Little Moon.” His maniacal voice fills my mind, blocking out the screaming from the wolves. I turn my head to see a vicious smile on his face. “You have work to do. I’ll keep the Alpha company in your absence.” He’s right. I have a mission to complete. I broke free from the chains and entered the crimson haze. A smile awakened on my face as I envisioned the bodies of my abusers lying at my feet, cold and lifeless. Through the chaos created by the witches and hybrids, my eyes locked on the targets as they escaped inside the pack house. My blade desires blood, and I couldn’t wait to feed it. I thought about killing Neron first. His eyes burned into my flesh as he, somehow, could raise his head. Deep blues swam begged me to come back to him, but I didn’t feel an ounce of mercy for him. Cutting off his head would be fun, but I decided against it. I nestled my blade in my thigh holster. He’ll lose everything before losing his life. That’s the ultimate revenge. “Kiya, wait!” Kwame’s voice rang. “You’re angry. You want us to pay for the crimes of the past. Our punishment is long overdue, but obliterating the pack won’t change the past. It’ll only hurt you in the end. Please think about this.” “I have.” I replied, turning my head to face him with a smile. “And you can’t change my mind. But you and your family will live. You were the only ones who were kind to me, and I’ll forever be indebted.” My smile Chap 67 Lady Sanguine turned into a snarl when I turned back to Neron. “I’ll come for you later.” My nose locked on the scent of chamomile and lavender. A calming fragrance poisoned with trepidation. Images of the woman’s death flooded my mind as every predatory instinct embedded in my DNA propelled me into the invaded pack house, tracking the owner down. I ignored the showcases of chases and slaughter around me, searching for my first victim. Entering the second floor corridors, I heard a panicked conversation as I blended in the shadows. “Raina, I can’t compromise your safety! You need to get to the bunkers, now!” “No, Val! Osiris is controlling my sister; I know it! There’s no way she’d willingly become like this. I have to get through to her.” “This is not up for debate. You honestly think you alone can stop her rampage? Is it worth putting your life in danger?” “I have to try, right? I can’t give up on her!” Oh, Raina. You have no idea how right your beloved mate is. Unsheathing my dagger, I threw it toward the couple, watching the blade bury itself to the hilt in Valerian’s shoulder. Two shouts followed: one of horror and one of pain. The Beta crumbled to his knees as he gritted his teeth in feeling the effects of … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 156” »
Kiya. Oh Kiya, I hope you’re alright. We all miss you so much. As we drew closer, screaming perforated my eardrums, steadily growing in volume and intensity. Innocent men and women grabbed their loved ones and retreated to safety when I arrived on the mainland. My hands clasped around my throat as the air thickened with disorder. Omar and Amani guided children and our pack’s most vulnerable to the underground bunkers; a frequented place that they all are very familiar with, mellowing the panic. A horrid scent assaulted my nose, and my heart dropped in a sea of despair. Blood mingling with death, coming in at all directions. Whoever or whatever is attacking has gotten their hands on my people! “Alpha!” Omar yelled, leaving his wife’s side. His dark, aged face contorted in dread. His eyes met with Lorelai’s, panic increasing. “Lori-” “I know.” She and Kwame shared a brief kiss before she and her pregnant belly were guided to safety. Worry perspired out of my Gamma, his heart at ease knowing his wife and unborn child are safe. “The attack happened no less than fifteen minutes ago.” Omar explained. “Our enemy blends seamlessly in the shadows, slaughtering anyone in their way. We’ve lost patrols and warriors. Some older men and women, sadly, fell victim as well. There is no definitive number on our casualties.” I grit my teeth, feeling the anger bubble at my core. Already, the bonds between those members and their life snapped like weak twigs. “Thank you, Omar.” “I apologize for not sounding the alarm earlier.” “You’ve done all you can, Dad.” Kwame spoke, patting his old man’s arm. “Now, you and Mom need to get to safety.” The couple retreated without hesitation. “We can’t see the enemy, eh?” Sapphire asked, arching a knowing eyebrow. “Not for long.” Knowing well what she meant, I allowed Onyx to take over. With a keen eye and superior night vision, he homes in on the enemies blending in the dark. Multiple enemies. Growls erupted from most of the Garnet Moon team, including my wolves as their eyes shined like diamonds. Their wolves are out. We’re used to rogues attacking, but rarely full–bodied enemies. And it made the hairs on the back of my neck rise. Running isn’t an option. I don’t know what they want, but their lives are on the chopping block and I have the hatchet. My warriors who helped guide the pack members to safety bristled and spreading about, prepared to face the onslaught head on. Shuffling echoed widely in the forest, the enemy getting in formation. No longer will they harm the innocent because they’re facing the big, bad wolves aching to drench their claws in maroon–coated revenge. Before anyone could react, a deep, loud, rumbling cackle knifed through the blackened air, gripping at our spines. Dripping with venom and malice. The laughter belonged to a madman high on illicit drugs, yet a simple sound revealed the owner’s true intention. It mocked us. Mocked me. I was a comedy act, and it was the spectator. Onyx was ready to pounce, but I peeled back his control and took the driver’s seat. The monster in charge was here while his army waited for his signal, hidden behind obscurity and oak barks. “Show yourself!” I roared, hands balling up into fists at my sides. “My, my, aren’t you eager to meet me, Alpha?” The familiar voice chuckled. “How does it feel to watch one miracle happen only to land yourself in hell?” Darkness shifted before my eyes like graphics on a computer game, bending and twisting to a silent tune. The Garnet Moon team took a couple steps back, vigilant of what is about to appear in front of us. Valerian pushed Raina behind him, and Kwame watched the scene with profound scrutiny. Is this magic at play? Or some other sickly force I know nothing about? I wanted to believe a monster would walk out of the dancing shadows, but what emerged was worse. The humans say that the worst of the world’s beast takes on human form. A man walked out of the mystifying shadows like he owned the world, dressed more like a regal dark prince than a wild beast. Hair as white as snow and mouth lined with pearls glowed in the darkness while his flesh melted into it. But what captured my attention the most were his eyes. Eyes as red as blood. Onyx stood on all fours in my mind, growling loud as the menace before me. With a smile that would make the devil weep, his eyes scoped the area before huffing through his nose. “Oh, you could have done much better with your army, Alpha Neron. I thought you had better taste.” 216 My breath hitched in my throat, and my posture stiffened. I’ve never seen this man before in my life, but he knew of me? I fought every instinct firing in my body to attack, but I needed answers. Answers that alluded me for weeks after my mind was obliterated with Kiya’s status. “Do not attack unless I give a signal.” I tell my members through mind–link, smelling the anticipation and anger rolling off their flesh in waves. “Who the hell are you?” “The barbarism of a true Alpha alludes you. So damn demanding.” The man sighed mockingly, flipping his colorless tresses behind his ear. “Allow me to introduce myself, properly. My name is Osiris–the avatar of Apophis; and I’ve been dying to meet you.” I lost all rationale. Onyx demanded his head on a silver platter for him to feast on. That demented name that haunted the air of my land and tormented the mind of my mate. The beast in human skin. A devil in his own right. The bastard who stole Kiya from all of i us! “YOU!” Onyx’s and I’s voices sandwiched together in our righteous fury. I would’ve pounced on the bastard if Valerian and Kwame hadn’t held me back by the arms. My men know me and my instincts too well. Even Raina bristled, her delicate face contorting in her own anger. “Where the f*ck is Kiya?! What have you done to her?! Give her back to us!” The Garnet Moon members beside me restrained themselves as their wolves threatened to leap out of their skins. Beta Jacqueline is lucky to have Beta Female Abigail at her side, but even she is having trouble resisting. Osiris is aware of our struggle and released a hearty laugh, holding his stomach. “What’s wrong, little mutts?” He taunted us. “Are you afraid to attack me?” His rubies found me again. “My Little Moon is…doing well. Very well. But the weakling you knew no longer exists. And you have no chance in hell in getting her back.” A door hinge squeaked. Then two, three, many. When I turned my head, my jaw dropped to the ground. All pack members, minus children, young teenagers, and pregnant women marched out of hiding like organized zombies, row after row. My soldiers fell into the same state, slackening their stances and dropping weapons. They formed rows and columns behind my team and Garnet, eyes hollow and bodies stiff as if they’re waiting for an order from a higher power. “What are you doing, Osiris?!” I demanded, feeling Onyx claw at my defenses. “Me?” He feigned innocence, a dark hand over his heart. “Why, I have done nothing, Alpha. But it appears my lady has come out and play.” High–pitched feminine giggles resounded in the air, surrounding me at all sides. It is consuming, bone- chilling, and fear–inducing. A frigid chill swam down my spine, and Onyx broke his stance as my fear touched his soul. The laughter was familiar, and it froze every nerve and synapse in my body. Everyone grew frightful, trembling as if they knew who the laughter belonged to. Then it happened. A colossal weight landed in front of us in a mighty crash, picking up dust and debris from the darkened ground. The force propelled us back on our asses, blowing us away. Dirt rained on our faces. My members still stood in their places as frozen statues. I couldn’t hear a single exhale. “Thank you, Cerberus! You’re such a sweetheart!” My heart dropped like a bomb. Obliterating in a fiery explosion with no hopes of recovery. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 155” »
Chapter 65 – Cutthroat “Is Fate getting what you deserve, or deserving what you get?” – Jodi Picoult Third Person POV Ariel found her equilibrium and rose to her paws, trotting toward Darien. As a wolf sprit, solid objects pass through her hollow body, so the man couldn’t pet her even if he tried. Her emeralds gazed into his watering aquamarines, expressing silent hope and happiness. Ariel is finally happy. The red wolf released a mighty howl toward the moon, echoing through the hushed forest. She called for Selene to wrap her arms around her to take her from the earth. All watched her translucent body fading into silvery dust, starting from the tail. A painless transition. Darien watched helplessly as Sirius‘ mate returned to Selene’s side. In utter sadness, the black wolf howled in agony at watching his mate disappear. He couldn’t stand. Galen and Jacqueline had to steady their forlorn and heartbroken friend on his feet as he wept for Ariel. Wanting her back. Wanting to ease his wolf’s suffering And his own. Odessa, bound against the tree, huffed. Mara, in silence, removed her blindfold before retreating. Sad and irritated hazels glared at the dozens of eyes staring at her in scrutiny and disgust. She felt insignificant and bitter; frustrated that her punishment is losing Ariel forever. Becoming human. “Do you have anything to say, Odessa?” Elder Estella asked the million–dollar question everybody wanted to know. Her lips formed into a snarl as her reality settled in. Human. Damned to weakness and vulnerability. Her eyes found Neron’s, void of love, filled with burning disappointment. Darien’s sniffles echoed in her ear, grating at her eardrums. The two men who were supposed to love her watched her downgrade without resistance. Hatred burned. “F*ck you all.” She spat out. “I have nothing to say to a crowd of dirty dogs.” “May Selene have mercy on your soul.” The crowd quietly dispersed, returning to the lands of Zircon Moon, leaving the ranked wolves, the Garnet Moon team, and the guards. Elder Estella, Elder Marjorie, and Mara gathered their supplies, bid Alpha Neron farewell and good luck. Mara and Darien lingered for a bit, staring at each other for what seemed like an eternity. The woman wasn’t sure what to say to him, but silently prayed to Selene to heal his broken heart. She joined with her mothers and left the distant pack grounds. Odessa was reticent, refusing to acknowledge the surrounding people. Everyone disgusted to her and earned every droplet of her hatred. Alpha Neron sighed, mentally deciding on what to do with Odessa. “Execute her.” Onyx suggested, his voice filled with venom. “Her crimes are too great. Ariel punished her b Chapter 65 – Cumclenat y leaving, but she still is responsible for harming our mate. If she dies, she won’t have the chance to hurt Kiyn again when we get her back.” Neron was inclined to agree. Odessa is a furious woman who has proven that she can and will kill to enact her revenge. She may be human, but her living will merely give her the ammunition to harm others. With knowledge of the supernatural world and darkness lurking around every corner, it was too risky. He didn’t want to be a killer, but this one will be justified. “Guards.” Neron demanded. All four stood tall, ready for orders. “Take Odessa back to her cell. I will decide her fate in the morning. Afterwards, retire for the night.” “Yes, Alpha.” “Dar? Are you alright?” Galen whispered to his childhood friend, who stood stiff and unblinking at the cuffed woman against a tree. Once upon a time, he was ready to give her all the love he held and hunt for the happiness she deserved. Now, his heart felt hollow. Empty, The sparks are dead. Forever. “Let us go home.” Darien’s detached voice answered. “There is nothing more for us here.” As the six members of Garnet Moon prepared to take their leave, a heavy groan stopped them. It followed with two more grunts interlaced with agony. Heads turned to see Neron, Valerian, and Kwame clutching their heads and gritting their teeth. Raina and Lorelai, alarmed, ran to comfort their mates, but their touch didn’t quell the tsunami of voices from their pack signaling for help. “Alpha Neron!” Omar, Kwame’s father, rose from the sea. “We need you back on the land! There are multiple reports of intruders coming in from all sizes of the territory. Some are attacking our patrols!” “Shit!” Neron growled. “Is there trouble?” Sapphire asked. “Big trouble.” He emphasized. “We’re under attack.” “Need help?” Jacqueline asked casually. “We’re at no rush to get home.” Darien didn’t reply but nodded in agreement. The Alpha grunted, pointing his head to the pathway back to the mainland. He reiterated to the guards to take a different path back to the prisons while the rest of them took off into the shadowy forest. “Don’t f*cking touch me.” Odessa snapped, “I rather stay here than to go back to those dingy cells.” “Sorry, girlie. Alpha’s orders.” One guard reprimanded with an eye roll, unaffected by Odessa’s heated glare. They were performing their duty of transporting an unruly woman back to prison. Simple, right? Wrong. Before any of them could uncuff the woman from the tree, a violent gush of power rushed passed them. Hairs on the back of their necks rose in full salute, signaling danger approaching fast. Too fast. In the blink of an eye, one guard plopped to the ground with a grunt, a pool of crimson forming around his head from his open neck. Chapter 65 Then another. And another. All four guards fell to the same cutthroat fate, bathing the grass in deep red around the woman. Odessa whimpered in fear, confused by what happened. Hazels widened like plates and her lungs went out of sync. She had seen nothing, and the guards literally dropped dead all around her. “W–wha-!” Giggles announced themselves like an auditory strangulation. They wrapped around Odessa’s throat, imprisoning her as her eyes looked every which way to find the owner. The moon hid itself behind impenetrable clouds, obscuring the ritual space in obsidian black, her white dress glowing in the dark. “Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The top bitch of Zircon Moon is a wolfless human, chained helplessly to at tree. It is about time you found your true place; on your knees.” Clicking of heels resounded in the darkness, unhesitant and meticulous. Each step radiated with deathly power and poisonous excitement. Trepidation gripped at Odessa’s spine as she struggled to free herself from her cuffs, only to have the metal dig against her skin. “W–who are you?” Odessa demanded, failing to steady her voice. The child–like giggles turned into sharp, adult laughter. A pair of crimson orbs pierced through the darkness, launching invisible chains to hold the woman’s soul in place. A captive. The clicking grew in volume as it closed in on the defenseless woman. Stepping over the corpses of the fallen guards, the darkness cloaked the woman’s identity. “You’ve already forgotten me? Odessa, I’m ashamed of you. The least you can do is give me the respect I deserve.” An icy hand gripped Odessa’s chin, forcing her chin upward. “But…” The mysterious person whispered. “Why would a bitch like you ever respect, who you called, a former slave?” … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 154” »
