Dominic’s POV
‘Grace…’
‘Sweetheart…’
I kept trying to mindlink her but it wasn’t working at all.
“You have an amazing woman, my daughter who loves you, why are you keep calling about that weak wolf?!”, I heard that witch’s voice in my mind.
‘Wow! Great! She now figured out how to enter into my mind.’, I thought sarcastically.
“You are a strong wolf with an amazing power, the power to make a whole new werewolf army, I admit that, so why are you giving so much importance to that weak wolf?”, She asked again.
“You, witch, don’t know the meaning of love so better stop irritating me. No woman can be better for me beside Grace. She is everything better even though she isn't. I won’t see her weak even if she doesn’t have a strong wolf. She's the only one I need.”
“You sound like a love sick puppy.”
“You don’t know the meaning of love, so I can’t expect anything else from you, witch. In Fact I pity you.”
“Pity? You pity me?”
“You have a daughter, yet you don’t know the meaning of loving her like a true mother. No wonder she is using you like this.”
SILENCE.
“What happened? Afraid of the truth? Have you ever thought about why she always calls you when she needs help, why not sooner? Stupid witch!”
“That’s because no one accepts that werewolf who had a witch as his/her mother. So, I don’t blame her.”
“Really? Is that the lie that she is faking you? Let me tell you one thing that in my packs there are no such rules. So, she could have shared her secret with everyone but no! She hid it and thought to use you as a trump card when the right situation would come.”
“You sure have guts. I admit that, you dare challenge me with your words, hoping it could affect me.”
“Don’t tell me it didn’t affect you.”, I mocked.
“You will be dead if she doesn't love you.”
“I don’t want her love, you know you can’t kill me. I am immortal. I can keep changing my body.”, Smiled smugly, I watched the witch fall back from my mind and leave me alone.
‘I hate how I have been trapped in my own body without my concern, I can't even move my own body. It’s like I am not myself in my own body.
Oh Moon Goddess, how I hate my body, that follows Sarah’s order like a true puppet.
How I kissed her and touched her, made me sick since I knew it was my body who was doing it.
The worst part is that by doing this I am hurting Grace.
Grace…
I am glad to know that anyone hasn’t her yet, that Eric moved quickly to hide her from me.
I can’t imagine if I will be the one who hurts her if my hands were the one who hurts her.
But I can’t control my own body…
I am trapped in my own body, watching the scene with my eyes without doing anything to prevent it.
I am a prisoner in my own body.
I know the one way I can break this spell is pain, the pain of losing someone I love.
And I love Grace the most.
But I can’t hurt her. But it is better to hurt her once rather than hurting her all the time by staying beside Sarah.
I will try to come back to you, sweetheart.
Please don’t give up on me after the things which I am going to do.
Please have faith in me.
I am here…
I am always here and even when my body is not me anymore, please remember that my heart and soul always belong to you, Grace.
Please don’t lose hope on me.’

Third Person’s POV
“There you are”, The witch turned her gaze toward the woman that she called her daughter. She looked happy, radiant with happiness forming on her face.
“What do you want?”, She asked and watched Sarah carefully. She turned around to show her new clothes.
“You look pretty, my daughter, just like I used to be during my young days.”
Sarah scoffed after she heard her mother’s response before and pouted while putting her arms crossed on her chest.
“Pretty? You were never pretty, mom, so don’t compare me with you. You are insulting me in that way. I wonder how my handsome father fell in love with you.”, She murmured while rolling her eyes like her mother couldn’t hear her words. “Today is the big day of my life, I just want to make sure that everything is under control, right?”, Sarah quickly changed the subject and asked her.
The witch stood in her place, studying her without saying anything.
Yes, this was true that she was not pretty but never ever her father said so. He always used to call her beautiful even though she knew that she wasn’t. She didn’t mention it in front of Dominic but she was very well aware of LOVE.
She herself fell in love with an omega, which was the lowest rank in the werewolf. Even though she had the choice to leave him and be with someone more powerful than him.
‘Isn’t Dominic doing the same?’
‘So in that way, whatever she was doing for her daughter was right?’
CLAP….CLAP…
“Helloooo”, Sarah clapped her hand impatiently.
“Yes, he will mark you if that is what makes you worry.”, Her mother replied. Again, Sarah rolled her eyes and for the first time, it annoyed her mother.
“You better sure about that, I am waiting for the day to happen only to get ruined.”, She retorted rudely which irked her mother.
In a blink of eye, Sarah started flying in the air. “Aaahhhh”
“Watch your tongue, daughter. If you don’t want me to throw you out of the window.”
Sarah looked shocked the moment she said it, never in her mind that her mother could do something to her because she knew she was her daughter, but now, she was scared.
That’s why she decided to play nice.
Her mother put her down and narrowed her eyes. “I am sorry, mother.”, She apologized. “I guess a nerve hit me since today, Zayden is going to mark me. And then, only death could separate me from my love.”, The witch took a moment to accept her explanation before nodding her head slowly.
