The gentle ray of the bright sunlight peeped through the curtains and landed on Layla's cheeks, she turned and swiftly dragged the bed cover on her face and silently moaned
She opened her eyes slowly and closed them back immediately as she was greeted by the bright sun on the edge of her window
Suddenly she got up and blew at her hair which was scattered all over her face and tiredly got down, her long white hair followed her as she stopped to look at herself in the mirror
She could hear the sonorous voice of her grandmother down the stairs and she shook her head tiredly
She knew all her stories as she had been telling her since she was little about how good a singer she was in her youth and Layla could say the stories breathlessly
She dragged her feet down the stairs and silently joined her grandmother in the kitchen
She was greeted by the familiar smell of eggs as she happily peeped inside
'Layla, what the hell did you do'
Layla looked around and shook her head
'Nothing'
Her grandmother smiled and immediately brushed her hands on her hair as her hair turned black immediately
'I told you to change your hair color every morning..why are you so stubborn'
Layla sighed and held her grandmother's hands tenderly
'I'm tired of hiding everyday for 20 years, I can't interact with people, I can't go out as I like and no one even knows the color of my hair...granny why are we living like this'
Her granny smiled as she brought her down to sit with her
'Why are you talking like this, you also know the situation on ground, we are witches and we are not wanted here, the king would have us killed if we are noticed and which is why you must protect yourself and keep your hair from the people'
Layla nodded slowly
'I know but isn't there anything we can do, I understand the king hates us but you once told me witches were a main part of this place, why do the king dislikes us now'
Her grandmother got up and faced her slowly
'I don't know.. all I'm asking you is to to be careful and do not forget about your hair anymore..set the table and wash yourself ...the food is ready'
Layla looked away sadly and sighed
She had been with her grandmother since she was born, her parents were killed right after she was born, at least that was what her granny had told her
Ever since then, she had mastered the tricks and spells of a witch , learned to control her powers and drank potions every time
She never attended school but only peeped at children going and she never had friends
'After eating, you would help me go to the backyard to get some leaves...there is a potion I learned about last night.. let me see what I can do'
Layla couldn't read and she only knew the local language of the town as she only looked in admiration at people who spoke in other languages
She knew her life was doomed
š± THE DEVIL'S š± š¾ TOUCH š¾ [ How To Tame A Bastard š] [Jessica's Plight, Aaron's Mission] ***Auckland, New Zealand*** To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed right now. I thought I already met the perfect girl for me. I was stoked seeing Tayla this morning, looking so strikingly gorgeous when she boarded my yacht. She looked demure and virginally innocent in her knitted white dress that covered her beautiful curvaceous body. Her jet black hair was twisted in a knot above her head with soft tendrils flowing at the sides of her face. My excitement died when her hands could not keep them by her sides. She was sexually touchy and came to me quite fast. She initiated our first kiss and gave me the tongue already. I was immediately disillusioned. Another of my first date turn offs. After we had lunch, she refused the kiwi pavlova for dessert and opted for my manhood instead. We had wild sex for the rest of the afternoon. I met Tayla in the New Zealand Entrepreneur Conference last night. I was one of the speakers while she was one of the organizers of the event. She looked so gorgeous, confident and smart. She was also a brunette. Something I had a thing in a woman. Tayla approached me after my speech and introduced herself. We talked for about five minutes, and immediately she captured my interest, so I asked her for a date. But today proved that I was wrong. She did not turn out to be the girl that I expected. She was too wild and sexually aggressive. A bad impression on the first date. Tayla got so exhausted and slept the rest of the afternoon, while I dove off to the crystal clear blue water of the ocean and had a vigorous swim. The water was slightly rough and icy cold on my skin. Just how I wanted it to be. It rejuvenated me, like a new energy - giving me more strength, power and motivation to do what I must do. I was born bearing a huge obligation for my family, that is guardianship of the Latsis' trillion dollars worth of fortune. As the eldest of my three siblings, I carried the responsibility of managing our family's empire. I remembered when I was thirteen, I got so confused about the responsibility that my father, Tristan Latsis kept on reminding me. I bursted at him one afternoon in our cattle farm at Wellington, with a tear stained face. "I thought we're extremely rich and I'm going to keep the family's money! Why am I shovelling this pile of filthy cows' manure? Can you just let our workers do it?" My dad would just say. "To be a good leader, Aaron, you must first become a good servant." "That's so unfair! You separated me from my siblings. They're in Auckland having a grand time while I'm here in Wellington, studying and working my ass as a farm boy. What am I to you, a slave? Sometimes I wonder, if I'm really your son!" I kept on complaining, until one day, I stopped when I enjoyed being on the farm. I learned cattle and sheep raising, dairy farming and managing the whole farm. But when I entered University to study mechanical engineering at the University of Auckland, I missed the farm terribly. I became so lonely and cried for days. I should be happy that I was with my family all the time. But... I could not relate with all my siblings. Edward who was two years my junior was too posh and arrogant. He had a superiority complex and would contradict me in every possible way. Skylar, the only girl, was five years younger than me, and she had her own world. A nerd who wanted to be alone all the time. Her twin, Troy was too hyperactive. He loved adventures and wanted to try new things all the time - including taking all forms of drugs. While studying, dad started training me in running our airline business in Auckland. It was very overwhelming at first, too different from farming. Gradually, the training became more intensive and my responsibilities became bigger and bigger, until I graduated university where I had full hands on the business. Now at the age of twenty nine, I took control of the airline business, while dad went back to Wellington with mom and managed the farm..........

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you." The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo. Someone yells, "Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, "Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
