Chapter 103

RAINA’S POV “I’ll be back soon.” I said to my maid as soon as I was fine dressing. “You know what to do if anyone asks of me,” I faced her with a glare.

Before I could take any more steps, she blocked the room’s entrance with her body, preventing me from leaving.

“I can’t allow you do this, Raina. I’ll be in deep trouble if the Alpha knows about this. Please, stay” she tugged at the hem of my dress with fear written all over her face.

“What’s wrong with you? You dare call me by my name now?”

“I’m sorry about that, but I’m definitely not allowing you go anywhere.” She insisted, “not without the Alpha’s permission.”

‘Da mn you, Rex!’ I cursed inwardly. If only he hadn’t changed my maid after I survived the punishment. My previous maid dare not question me or be bold in front of me to stop me from going anywhere I intended to.

“How about this?” I tried thinking about something to be free from her and everyone. “Why don’t you tell the alpha that I went to play with my friends?”

“That’s dumb! He surely wouldn’t believe me, knowing you don’t have a friend to play with since you returned.”

“Fine, then. I’m not going anymore.” I resigned, heading back to my bed.

“Got you,” I snapped at her, using one of the control talisman that I had left with me to make her stand still on a spot.

“This is nice. Next time, you wouldn’t try me.” I pat her back happily, heading out without restraint. The talisman wouldn’t hurt her and she would be free after ten minutes but I’ll be gone by then. Mission accomplished!

Outside the pack, I inhaled fresh breath. It has been a while I stepped my legs out of these boundaries, kudos to my brother who doesn’t want me to misbehave – like he claimed.

As I journeyed further away from the pack boundaries, a sense of exhilaration coursed through my veins. It had been far too long since I had ventured beyond the confines of our territory,l. Every part of my body could feel it.

With each step, my determination grew stronger, fueled by the burning desire to claim what was rightfully mine. Rex may have thought he could control me, but I refused to be bound by his rules that evening.

As I approached the outskirts of the forest, my heart pounded with anticipation. I was headed for Delilah’s coven, hoping she could do something to help me.

Delilah was the legendary werewolf witch, rumored to reside deep within the woods. Whether she truly existed or not was uncertain, but I was willing to bet on any chance, no matter how slim, to achieve my goals.

The branches of the trees swayed gently in the breeze, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor as I walked forward.

As I continued on my journey through the forest, the dense foliage overhead casting eerie shadows on the forest floor, I couldn’t shake the fear that I began to feel.

Suddenly, I stumbled upon a clearing where an elderly woman sat beneath the woman sat beneath the shade of a gnarled oak tree. She appeared weathered and worn, her wrinkled face lined with the passage of age. Cautiously, I approached her, unsure of what to expect.

“Excuse me,” I called out tentatively, hoping to get some information about the location I sought. “Can you tell me if I’m on the right path to find the coven of Delilah?”

The old woman’s eyes flickered with recognition at the mention of the name, and she nodded slowly.

“You seek the coven of Delilah, do you?” she croaked, her voice raspy with age.

“Yes, please. I’m finding my way to the legendary coven.”

“Yes, child, you’re on the right path. Keep heading north until you reach the ancient oak tree, then turn west and follow the winding path until you reach the clearing where the coven resides.”

Relief flooded through me as I listened to her directions, grateful for the guidance. But before I could thank her and continue on my way, the old woman spoke again, her voice trembling with urgency.

“Wait, please,” she implored, reaching out a gnarled hand towards me. “I beg of you, lend me your aid.

I am lost and weary, and I fear I may not survive much longer in these woods.”

I hesitated, torn between my own goals and the plight of this stranger. But in the end, my ambition won out, and I brushed off her request with a dismissive wave of my hand.

“I’m sorry, but I have my own matters to attend to,” I replied coldly, turning away from her. “I suggest you find your own way out of the forest.”

With that, I continued on my journey, leaving the old woman behind without a second glance. Little did I know, my decision to ignore her plea would come back to haunt me in ways I could never have imagined.

G Finally, I reached a clearing bathed in soft moonlight, and there she stood Delilah, the legendary figure I had sought. Her presence seemed to radiate power, and I couldn’t help but feel a surge of awe and apprehension at the sight of her. At first, I wasn’t sure if she was the one. But with the description written in the book I read about seemed to fit the look of he person in front of me.

“Delilah,” I called out, my voice echoing through the stillness of the night. “I’ve come seeking your help.”

ming to The werewolf witch regarded me with piercing eyes, her gaze penetrate to the depths of my soul.

“What is it that you seek, child?” she asked with a scary accent that sent shivers down my spine.

“I seek to claim what is rightfully mine,” I declared boldly, my resolve unwavering. “I seek to rid myself of obstacles and attain the love and power that I deserve.”

Delilah nodded slowly, as if she had already anticipated my request. “Love and power are not easily obtained,” she warned, her voice grave. “But for those who are willing to pay the price, anything is possible.”

“I’m ready,” I said. With a sense of determination burning within me, I braced myself to accept whatever challenges lay ahead. With Delilah’s guidance, I would stop at nothing to achieve my goals – even if it meant delving into the darkest depths of magic itself.
