Ryker:

I watched members of our pack mill about from the window of our study, waiting for Kara to return.

I had sent her to check on Keileigh. My worry for her was incredulous to think about, because I had formed such an attachment to her at such a short time since she was brought here.

How else could one explain how protective I felt over her?

I was made aware of the knock on the door and turned around just as Kara stepped into the study.

“Yes, Kara?” I addressed the older woman. She was one of the only ones I could trust, as she had been responsible for Arnold and I when we were younger. Therefore my brother and I had made it clear to everyone who came in that she was of the highest rank that any servant could ever attain.

“Miss Keileigh is safe,” Kara said, which made me frown at her wording. Had my concern for her shown that much? Kara stared knowingly at me as she then added, “The Beta is with her currently.”

Roman?

I remembered the deal I made with him and nodded. It had been wh

    Keliegh“Hello, darling.”I smiled as I heard Roman’s voice as he walked up towards me, and pressed a small kiss on my temples, before taking my hand.Every day since I found out Roman was the Beta of this pack, we had spent time together. It was something i looked forward to every day, for many reasons. Whenever I would be apart from my best friend, i was always bombarded with the less than welcoming air of disdain and disgust from Selene and Arnold. They didn’t speak to me much during any meal times, perhaps because Ryker had jumped to my defense more than once in a row.But the both of them would show the hatred they shared for me through their looks and mocking smiles whenever something innocuous happened. Once I coughed lightly due to drinking water too fast and Arnold made a comment about how I lacked table manners.A part of me longed to defend myself constantly to them, to stand up for myself and make sure my voice was heard and they wouldn’t disrespect me.But just as quickly

    Keliegh“Thanks,” I chirped in a little bit of amusement to my best friend, wondering how my smile made him that clearly happy.Nevertheless I enjoyed the feeling of having him next to me. If I didn’t have him around, wallowing in my deepest, dark thoughts for the entire day would have been a regular occurrence.“I’m sure you must be terribly bored here,” Roman stated with certainty, changing the subject as he sat up to reach for the sweet, non-alcoholic wine that the maids had brought in for us earlier.The wine was courtesy of Ryker, the maid had stayed. I didn’t know whether to feel flattered or uneasy by the Alpha’s actions. It was hard to figure out exactly what emotion I felt towards Ryker, especially when my thoughts of getting a man’s attention now was just a burden. I didn’t want Ryker to treat me specially and I hesitated to even partake in the wine because he might end up taking it as me accepting the attention he was giving me.“Not really,” i said whilst shaking my head a

    KelieghI sighed as Roman finally left my bedroom, and I was along once more. The feeling of loneliness always creeped in whenever he wasn’t around and I wrapped my arms around myself and went back to sit on the edge of the bed.I wished that Roman would be able to stay by my side every single day and base away all those nightmares when I was sleeping.But he was the Beta of the Pack, after all. And I couldn’t stop him from doing whatever he had to.Another sigh left my lips.And in the next moment, a knock came on the door, followed by a door opening.I stiffened at the sound, as a maid walked in and bowed a little to me out of respect trot a guest.“Miss, dinner is ready,” the maid said to which I pressed my lips thinly and looked aside.I couldn’t help it; the feeling of always going to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at the dining hall where I would face more taunts from Alpha Arnold and Selene, was pretty depressing. It would always rattle me, even when I tried to not let things

    Selene“No, i don’t like this one,” I snapped at the maid who showed me the silver necklace topped with emeralds. Was she trying to incite my anger? Everyone knew that gold was my color and I didn’t like silver.It was such an inferior metal compared to my tastes.I thought of Keileigh, that GIRL that still hadn’t left the house despite my warning her to. She was more deserving of inferior things.“Tomorrow, send all my silver pieces to that girl,” i ordered one of the maids. “She will accept it as a show of goodwill.”If she didn’t accept it, that would be a sign that she don’t like me and I could use it as a ruse to throw her out, and defend myself from her.“Yes, madam,” the maid bowed, while I closed my eyes as another patted eyeshadow onto my lids.I still had no idea why the party was being held. Ryker - who usually didn’t host parties like Arnold did - was the one to order Kara to prepare for the gathering. I had only been informed of it afterward.Perhaps Ryker had something t

  • 180 days with the Twin alphas   A TRICK!

    KeileighI walked behind Kara who led me to the hall I didn’t know was here before. The faint sounds of music slowly swelled up, increasing in volume as I approached it.I felt like I was walking into a situation I didn’t know, and it wasn’t by choice. Why did the two Alphas of the pack throw this party? And why was I invited? I tried my best to inform Kara before, that I wouldn’t be attending and I even protested when the maids had tried to make me change out of my clothes. But in the end it was for nothing.The older woman told me in no uncertain terms that I had no choice. It was an order from Alpha Ryker that she got me ready and she would be punished if she disobeyed his orders. I had a feeling that the woman was bluffing a little but I didn’t have the heart to call her bluff in case she ended up actually getting punished.My blue dress swished around as I walked. I hadn’t been decked in jewelry like this since I reached my majority and my father threw a large party that lasted n

  • 180 days with the Twin alphas   A FIGHT.

    SeleneThings were definitely not going according to plan!And I blamed that girl!I stood in between Arnold and Ryker as they locked eyes angrily with each other. The brothers were about to fight, and it was all because of Keileigh.I smiled at a guard and informed them, “Send everyone out at once. This is a private conversation.”The guard nodded and before anything else could happen, they had already begun to make sure the pack members had exited the large hall.“This is enough,” I said to Ryker and Arnold, as they kept growling at each other. “You both can’t fight like this in public. Please.”Arnold snarled, “I have no desire to fight you brother, but if you keep on mentioning that girl’s name then-““Then what?” Ryker cut his twin brother off, before I could say anything.I cleared my throat, and Ryker’s eyes fell on me as it should.“Ryker, please think this through,” I simpered. “Your brother is right. We don’t know this girl. She may have bad intentions, and-“I reached out

    KeileighI was in my bedroom now, my body shaking and the memories of the party coming back to me.I had caused the two Alphas to fight.That shame and guilt built up in me that I found I was trembling.After Ryker had taken me out of the party hall I had refused to go anywhere else with him because somehow I couldn’t stand it. Somehow that act of his had been the one to make me snap out of the way I had been frozen, watching everything go like it were from a book.I ran away from him and locked myself in my bedroom.I thought that would help me think more clearly and figure out what to do.But it had only made me become more lost.My stomach churned uncomfortably and I felt like I was the harbinger of bad luck to this mighty pack. There was no other way to describe how two brothers would suddenly be at odds once I came into the picture.As tears prickled my eyes I heard the knock on the door.Wiping my eyes I quickly stood up, wondering who it might be. I was left gaping afterwards a

    RykerKeileigh’s words weren’t the only thing that struck a chord deep into me. The sight of her with tears running down her cheeks made my chest hurt and I knelt down to grasp her chin but she slapped my hand away and stood up immediately, to my shock.“Stay away from me,” she demanded as she put considerable distance between us, quickly moving to the corner of the room.She sniffled and tried to wipe at her cheeks and eyes, but all it did was make them even redder.“Keileigh, tell me what’s wrong,” I implored my mate, seeing how distressed she was. I hated to see her that way. What could have gone wrong?“Are you happy now?” She snapped at me, her voice full of anger and frustration and pain. “You do things without caring how everyone will take it. You planned this didn’t you? The party, and that announcement. You did all that, and you made such a fuss over nothing!”I blinked slowly as my mind processed the things she was saying.“Are you upset about that?” I asked her as gently as

Jake was arrested and we headed back home. Jake was beyond shocked that things would take a turn like that in such short time.A couple of minutes ago, I was doubting if I would live again and he was acting all powerful, just like the same way he did in the beginning, making everyone asides him look like a weakling only to end up as one. A few hours ago, my life was in his hands but in such a short time, his life ended up in my hands. How sweet it was for the tables to be turned!Arnold was not comfortable throughout the journey and Ryker did try to ask what was going on with him. I wished I could expose him but I wanted him to confess his own sins himself.The whole pack jubilated the moment we returned. We had left sorrowfully, not on our own accord but now, we were returning victoriously and happily.Arnold barely smiled as e

    KeleighI was not myself anymore. I wished death would embrace me with its cold arms but I also wished to see Ryker one last time. I had gone through so much in just a short time of being there.I had been ill-treated and locked away from everyone else. Alpha Jake did confess to me that the only purpose why he tried to come back for me was because he knew the type of power that was in me and had come for it. I was dazed.I guess Ryker was the only one who genuinely cared about me. I had continually wait each day for death when I suddenly got to know that the pack was being attacked. I had no idea what was going on but my heart raced so hard as I feared something could have happened to me.All the guards that watched over the prisoners had gone out as well to check what was going on and had begun to battle just like everyone else. We were however able to release ourselves.My joy knew no bounds the moment I got to know that Alpha Ryker was up and healthy once again. To my greater surpr

    ~KeleighEverything did seem off and strange. First, it was Arnold’s confession down to his actions and now, Roman's speech?I was confused and I was beginning to lose my mind. I had no idea of what was going on but I sure did know that I was not going insane.They were trying so hard to make me feel like I was losing my sanity and I knew I was not. I was heartbroken at the fact that everyone had decided to make me feel miserable.I wanted to thank Roman for advising me the first time about the brothers even though I had turned deaf ears to him but again, I remembered he had played a great role in making everything complicated.My whole world was spinning and it felt like I was not going to survive it. I was just not myself. I did not feel so good. I looked up at Roman. How could he betray me once again? I guess I had been such a fool to trust him that much. I should not have listened to him. I had no idea what the arrangement between him and Arnold was but seeing Arnold on the floor,

    ~KeleighMy whole seemed to be coming to an end the moment I got to know that he had been abducted. I had never felt so scared and worried in my entire life like I did over the few days that passed. First, it was Selene trying to hurt me and kill me.My soul had left my body the moment the knife was placed on my neck. I was even more shocked or perhaps, startled when I got to know that she was the one. She was the last person I expected to see. How had she escaped? How had she come into my room? How had she know where I was staying? How had she been able to access me?I had so many questions ringing through my head at the same time but the one that yelled at me the most was if I was going to die without seeing Ryker ever again. I would be so hurt and so shattered never to see him again.That had however given me the strength to fight her back and it had turned into a wrestle. I would rather die trying than not attempting at all. That would hurt me the most.Thankfully, Arnold and Ryke

    ~ArnoldI had not been happy with the development that was happening at the pack.“Alpha Arnold….” Roman had called out to me one night. I had begun to contemplate on what to do but nothing seemed to cross my mind. I just could not let her go so easily. I had to do something about it.“What do you want?” I questioned, turning my back to him. I expected him to leave but he was hell bent on coming to me even further.“I do not want you here. You should leave now while you have the chance. I just want you to…”“I can help you.” He suddenly spoke, causing me to arch my brows. I did not expect to hear any of what he had just said.“Help me? For what?”There was definitely no way he would have an idea of what was going on with me so what help was he talking about?“I know everything. I know you want Kaleigh to yourself. Not because you like or love her but….” He looked around suspiciously. “only because you are interested in her power.” He whispered. I feigned ignorance at first. I could no

    KeleighHis words were quite surprising but I decided not to take it to heart. I tried so hard to not think of all he had said but the words kept coming and resounding over and over and over again. He could not be kept behind bars no matter what he did?My mind drifted off to the day I asked Ryker to put him behind bars and how much he had defended him. Could it be true? I shook the thoughts out of my mind immediately. It was not possible. I could tell Ryker cared for me more than Arnold did or was it the other way round?Perhaps, because I liked Ryker even more, I believed he cared for me more? No, not at all. I shook my head. I wasn’t going to let him manipulate me. I knew he was quite manipulative but what could be his gain at that point?He claimed he was no longer interested in me. Being with Arnold would not be of any help to him neither would me being with Ryker be of any disadvantage to him. Was he really acting that way because he cared about me as a friend?Roman was quite d

    ~KeleighI missed him so much. I hated the fact that I could not see him when I wanted to. I had no idea why he suddenly became so busy but I was quite hurt that he was away from me. Arnold did try to make me feel better numerous times but it just could not compare.I didn’t feel the connection I felt with Ryker. The bond just wasn’t there. He did try to send me gifts to perhaps, make me feel better but it just wasn’t working. I missed Ryker so much. I would constantly stay close to the court even though the guards would sometimes try to stop me from going any closer. If they hadn’t stopped me most times, I could have gone in there to meet him most of the times. I wasn’t comfortable with his absence anymore.“Ryker is trying to get his mind off you.” Roman suddenly walked up to me one afternoon while I was all alone in the garden. I rolled my eyes, immediately disgusted by his presence. Why was it so hard for him to understand that I did not want to have anything to do with him? Why c

    ~ArnoldI had been quite busy with all that was going on in the pack yet all I was doing was in the interest of the pack. Ryker had been unresponsive like before and had left all the major tasks of the pack to me. All he did was stayed with Keleigh while leaving me with all other important things.Keleigh on the other hand was no longer interested in me. She paid even more attention to Ryker and treated me like I did not exist. I tried so hard to make her see me even more but she seemed to be very busy to not care about me, not even for once.“The necklace sure does look quite good on me, does it not?” Keleigh questioned, a smile on her face. She seemed quite excited but it did shatter my heart. With excitement, she zoomed off.I watched in silence as she walked away and Ryker did have a smile on his face as he watched her walk away.“She is very beautiful, is she not?” he questioned, probably still daydreaming. I was not in the mood for all that so I crossed my hands behind him and w

    ~RomanI was quite disappointed in the fact that things were not going my way. I could not get Keleigh out of the pack. The security had been quite tighter and I could not get close to her.Every of the maids and guards were being monitored. No one was allowed to go out of the pack neither was anyone allowed to move freely. A lot of thoughts crossed my mind all at the same time.I had to get her out no matter how hard I tried. Keleigh had tried to keep an eye on me and I could tell I was being monitored by her hence I tried everything within my power to make sure I stayed out of her reach. My appearance in public had reduced. I knew I had to do something to get out of the whole mess I had gotten into.When she was attacked and claimed I knew about the attack, I was quite surprised. Of course, I had the intentions to get her out but I had not done anything. I just wanted her to be safe as well. I had to do everything within my power to make sure I got her out.At first, I believed Jake
