He held my hands and then pulled me into his arms. His warm arms and muscles brought me a different kind of feeling, a feeling of safety or more that I couldn't decipher.
" Alpha Zeev, Interrupted Alpha Loki, that's my slave, " he said, pulling apart with his Sturdy hands. " Let her be, she's my slave, he growled, tugging my hands."
" Not anymore Loki, she's mine, " he spoke, yanking Alpha Loki's hands off me strongly.
" She's my mate and she's to head to my pack with me as my Luna, Alpha Zeev said, emphasising his words.
" What a surprising twist I'd say, the most ruthless Alpha seated here today is taking you Fenrir, a spineless wolf as his mate, you're not even a shifter are you, Alpha Loki jested.
" And on whose orders will she leave, she's mine, Zeev, take your hands off her, Alpha Loki glowered back at Alpha Zeev.
" You don't want to see whose orders she wants to follow, Loki, get off from my sight" Alpha Zeev snarled.
" You're going to have a much worse life being his luna than being my slave princess, your choice me or him," Alpha Loki asked proudly.
His sturdy arms around me made my erratic breathing calm, and the look in the eyes of the alphas seated was vivid enough to tell me that alpha Zeev was a burning inferno, but I felt safe with him.
I slowly held my hands back to Alpha Zeev's hand, standing behind him, I felt like I was being shielded from this world's cruelty.
" I'll be with Alpha Zeev," I said meekly behind the figure.
" Fenrir, I see you want to waste that useless life of yours, going with the devil" Alpha Loki growled. "My lady," Kayla called from a distance, her tearful eyes said it all, but I was adamant, I Felt at home with Alpha Zeev, security I'd not felt before.
" I stand firm in my decision, I'll choose to burn with this devil if that's what it takes to be away from you, I'd gladly give my life to be with this monster Loki", I said, gasping with each breath I took.
Alpha Zeev's POV
I looked back at the figure behind me and held her hand. " Are you ready yet?" I asked."
There was a slight tremble in my mate's voice, my Luna, I muttered again, not Minding the flush of heat that roared through me as she replied. " Not yet Alpha Zeev, I still have someone to take with me," she answered walking away from me.
" Let's leave Kayla," she said walking closer to the maid standing weakly by a pillar.
I scrunch my eyebrows, I'd not gotten to hold her in my arms and this maid was hugging tightly. " I thought I'd be doomed here my Lady," the maid spoke sniffing.
" Let's leave Kayla, " she held the maid's hands, and together they walked towards me, her pretty pale blue eyes shimmered from a distance, though they had gotten red from the stream of years she had cried, her long hair flowed rhythmically with every step she took.
I rubbed my hands around my stubble, feeling the embarrassing heat flushing through my face. My heart thumped violently Against its ribcage, I'd waited for this moment for years and the mate bond happened when my Luna was being kicked to my feet.
Her face was scrunched in pain from the distance, with streaks of blood from her waist. " Fenrir," I called softly, walking closer to her, just in time for her to fall into my arms.
" My lady, the maid screamed, you'll be fine my Lady, " she stuttered. " Be quiet and lead the way, " I said impatiently, carrying my Luna in my hand, I turned back to the crowd. " You'll pay for the pains you've caused her, in folds of what you cannot imagine," I swore and turned to leave.
" Haha, and tell me Zeev, what are you going to do with a wolf that cannot shift?" the taunting voice of the queen rang through the ball.
" You're the mightiest Alpha and everyone who's here knows that your immeasurable strength cannot be compared to none, I've my daughter, a princess who is Worthy of being your Luna, good enough to be by your side as a queen, she continued to talk angering me to the depths of my soul.
The woman in my hands, unconscious, was making me lose my sanity bit by bit, I stepped inches back, my brows forming a frown. The air was no longer enough to suffice my breathing, I needed her to be awake, the beautiful woman, her lengthy hair pulled behind her back and the messy braids on her sticky pale face, her lifeless face went an indescribable feeling of fear inside me.
I gave no reply to her words and headed outside to my carriage. " Call a physician from nearby right now, " I growled to the guards by the carriage.
I looked back at the unconscious figure in my hands, brushing the strands of hair that stuck in her face away, I took her hands in mine, squeezing them worriedly.
" You're fucking beautiful" , I muttered to myself, touching her hard-muscled but lucent skin.
The quicked footsteps of the guards and a physician behind brought me back to reality. "Alpha Zeev," the old physician trotted behind me.
" You should lay her flat on her back, she is very stressed and seems to have been worn out by series of traumas." My fist folded into a ball hearing his words.
" Alpha Zeev," her maid's tiny voice motioned for me to do as Said.
" Open the carriage windows, settle it on a flat surface, and make sure no movement is made", I ordered.
I put her down and wrapped my hands around her, her soft breaths rose slowly and I felt her body stiffen for a moment before she accepted my touch. Her eyelids batted as she opened her eyes slowly.
" My lady, you're awake," the maid's voice rang from behind. I held my fingers up rubbing in soothing circles.
"No one has ever been that kind to me," she said softly with a tiny trailing off on her words.
A smile formed on her face before she closed her eyes slowly and fell back asleep.I felt a sudden wave of spark in my soul ,that little crease on her face." She's fine now Alpha Zeev, Little stress and a lot of care, make sure she's emotionally fine, that's all the important ones. " The physician said ruining the flush of happiness inside me.We're leaving for the Isle now, I commanded the guards each scattering back to their position, I sat in the carriage holding my mate carefully. The sudden feeling of familiarity I felt was overwhelming, maybe it was the mate bond, I didn't despise her touch, her contact with my body, it all felt soothing and warm.I held my hands behind her head creating a comfortable headrest with my palms for her to rest on as the carriage drove to the Isle.Sahrani IsleThe bumpy road on the outskirts of the Isle had me getting on my nerves. The thought of Fenrir still sleeping was getting me worried, it's been hours and she was supposed to be awake now.The
Mara's pov"Mom" , Mara calls out, stomping her feet on the ground as she walks angrily towards the queen."What is the matter Mara? Why does your face carry so much anger?" she asked concerningly."How could you let that happen, Mom? How could you let Fenrir be taken away by Alpha Zeev? You and I know how much I've been trying to form an ally with him. Fenrir can't have him, only I have the right to be his Luna, and wife." She said fuming with anger." Mara!How dare you talk to your mother like that," the king thundered, obviously angered at the turn of events." I've every right to be angry, I have every reason to talk to her like that! why? why did you both let that happen, Alpha Zeev was mine to begin with, how could that spineless bitch that cannot shift, be his Luna?. I, Mara, is the only one who will be by his side." Mara shouted back at the king" Calm down Mara, her life with Alpha Zeev is going to be worse than even being here don't you see," the queen said, trying to take
Alpha Zeev's POV "Good morning my dear Luna," I said walking towards the bed she lay on, her scarlet red face resting lazily on the bed. " Good morning Alpha Zeev", her melodious voice filled the room," "How was your night rest my beautiful Luna?" I asked sitting at the edge of the bed. Handing her a cup of water, her face carried a hint of surprise and she hurled down from the bed. " Sit Fenrir, you do not have to be scared of me, you are safe with me," I said moving closer to her, holding her jaw in my palms as I looked into her eyes. " I'm not scared of you Alpha Zeev, I'm just not used to being treated like this by a stranger," she said with a quivering voice. " I'm not a stranger, Fenrir, I'm your husband, your Alpha," I said back almost with a voice of urgency, the urgency for her to take me in as hers. Her eyes were laden with tears as she looked at me. " I don't know if this is the effect of the mate bond, but I want you to accept me Fenrir, open your heart, and let m
ASTERIA Mara walked around the palace as she awaited the return of the messenger. " Isn't he back yet?" she asked with urgency in her voice. " No my princess, there hasn't been any word from the crystal moon pack either, I guess Alpha Zeev is making his decision," the maid behind her said in a low voice not daring to anger her. " He should be back with that bitch, he must come back to Asteria with her," she said pacing around unsettlingly. " I'll go and check if he has arrived, my princess," the maid said, walking away in a hurry. The quickened footsteps of the maid was no longer heard in the corridor and Mara was left alone to her thoughts. " I'll make sure I kill that bitch once she gets back to Asteria, how dare she follow Alpha Zeev instead of Alpha Loki, she sure has some guts to covet my things," mara murmured to herself. " I never thought of her as a threat, it seems like I've to eliminate her and then everything will be in my grasp," she
" What do we do now mother, the thought of Fenrir staying in crystal Moon pack with Alpha Zeev is getting on my nerves. Didn't you see how he treated the messenger because of her? we have to make haste about it Mother, before it gets too late," Mara said tentatively." Bring me a man from the council of the elders, a high-ranking one, and ask that we meet privately, Alpha Zeev won't be able to reject this offer." The Queen said decisively.FENRIR's POV Kayle walked into the bedroom with a wide smile on her face. " Good morning my lady," she greeted with a happy face." Why do you look so happy, has anything good happened," I asked, sitting up from the bed." Of course, my lady, I'm glad you made the right choice of following Alpha Zeev, everyone in the pack has been talking about how he carried you into the park yesterday," she said giggling with smiles." Why is there so much talk about him carrying me here, I was not fit to walk by myself," I said back to Kayla who cared less about
" Good day my lady," a man in full cladded robe greeted as he walked into the meeting room. " Good day elder Aztec," the queen responded. "Please do have a seat," she said as she gestured to the chair in the room. Mara walked into the room behind Elder Aztec as he made his way to sit opposite the mother-and-daughter duo. " What can I do for you my lady," he asks, settling down. " We er..." Mara makes attempts to state the reason he was summoned. " Let the queen do the talking, my princess, " elder Aztec said, shutting Mara up in an instant. His eyes swept over Mara in a portent manner. " Elder Aztec, I asked that you be brought here because of a very important matter that needs urgent solution," she said and continued. " I know you must have heard about Fenrir being taken away by Alpha Zeev of the crystal moon pack," the queen said, looking into the eyes of elder Aztec for any reaction. " Yes, I've also heard about the messenger and the shenanigans that happened on his arriva
Alpha Zeev's POVI held the little woman in my hands as we both walked down the flight of stairs." Stay, I'll carry you," I said, bending over to sweep her off her feet."Tell me if you like what is prepared," I said, not Minding the protests from her as I swooped her from the ground.The maids around the table opened their eyes wide in shock." Alpha Zeev, there are some visitors from Asteria," a guard from outside said.The woman in my hands shuddered with fear as I could see the trepidation in her eyes." You'll be fine Fenrir, " I said , still holding her tightly in my arms."I'll get down first Alpha Zeev," she said, trying not to show the complex emotions." Stay Fenrir, you belong here, they're the ones who do not," I said, holding her tightly in my arms as the creak and clank of shoes was heard outside.The door opened and the expectant face of the old man with the woman who seemingly is the second princess of Asteria turned gloomy.Fenrir tried to squeeze down from my arms m
With a triumphant smile on her face, she limped slowly cause she had a broken leg from the way the guard hit her down. Together they made their way to the rooftop." What a foolish bet," she murmured, "the king of Asteria himself wouldn't dare to resist such offer", she said silently.I walked behind looking down at the guards who had moved over to the villages giving no reaction to her words.The woman in my hands had made small ruffles, making me halt.The crescent smile on the Messenger's face was slowly turning into a frown. " What?, how could they reject so much treasure, that the best of what they had ever seen in their lives, " Mara said, almost scrambling to her feet." Do something, Elder Aztec, why are you Just watching? Those people must be stupid," she said as she screamed in denial.Her face grew into panic as she saw the treasures being thrown to the ground, thrown back in the face of the guards who brought them." I believe you can see why I have so much trust in my pe
Alpha Zeev's POVI held Fenrir's hand in mine as we both walked back to the ceremony, my hands firmly holding onto hers, attracting the gaze of the men in the room.I looked back down to the sober expression on Fenrir's face, the puffy eyes and her lips swollen, I'd cleaned the little makeup on her face whilst cleaning the tears on her face, making her look more neutral and beautiful.My insides heated up at the gaze of the men not leaving her body for once.Jay walked closer to me, " we've taken care of him, he said as he handed me a microphone. " You're to begin the ceremony, " he said , offering to take Fenrir's hands." It's fine, we'll go together, I said to him as I walked to the upfront stage, still holding Fenrir's hand." Good day everyone, I'm sorry for the inconvenience and the scene created here a while ago, I can assure you that nothing like that will happen anymore as long as everyone respects themselves from my wife," I said, taking a look at the faces looking up at me.
Fenrir's POVTwo days later, the chimes of the bell in the Martinez mansion bustled across the whole house as It jeered in laughter and happiness.Smiles scattered across the house as Martinez was to wed his bride today. The Happy smiles plastered on her face seemed never to fade as I saw the little sparkles of tears in them.She was happy and so was I with her. Zeev and I never had this fairy tale type of wedding but every single bit of my life after he had taken my hands away from Asteria, I felt nothing more than bliss.The devil they'd call him, I saw as others repelled when he stood in front of them with his eyes full of intensity, the soft eyes looking at him were only mine, and I'd gladly burn in his hell if that was what it took for me to be with him.Jay stood beside me not daring to leave after the Stern order given by a Zeev earlier." Leave her for a second and if anything should happen to her, I'll make sure to flick your head off your neck before you get to say a word."
Alpha Zeev's POVI settled Fenrir down on the couch I had dropped her on as I walked into the small shower in the bathroom." Stay Fenrir, your wounds are yet to heal," I said halting her in her steps to the bathroom. " I'm fine now Zeev, they've all healed, I've your blood in me," she said, stripping the bandages off her body." Ah, I said in the realisation of her words, she had my mark on her. " Although it is slower than it is supposed to be, I'm very well okay now, " she said walking into the bathroom as she stripped off the last piece of clothing on her." You're beautiful Fenrir, I've seen your body a countless number of times, yet I'm not able to not be affected by it, I said walking closer to her under the running water of the shower, raising her hand above her head, I drew her waist closer to me, taking her lips in mine." I can't seem to get enough of your wife, your body, your smile, and everything about you, " I said, lifting her body from the ground. The water drizzles d
Fenrir's POV I walked down the bed only to be scooped up by Zeev in a princess carry. " I can walk Zeev, you don't have to carry me," I protested in refusal." There's no way he'd let you walk in this state, " Jay said from behind, holding an Apple in his hands.I rolled my eyes at him, taking comfort in Zeev's hands." As if you would have left his hands even if you're asked to," Jay said Again, making another jesting remark." Do you want to hear something about Jay's wife, " Zeev asked with a bemused smile spread across their faces.I nodded positively in answer to his words. " "Jay was probably the one who worried the most about you in your absence, he was tugging at his hair in frustration afterward," Zeev revealed as I burst out in laughter, taking into the embarrassing reaction on Jay's face." Take it, he said, putting the apple in his hands into my mouth, turning my laughs into a low mumbling sound.We got to the hospital door and a familiar black car met my eyes." We're go
I moved closer, engulfing her in my arms as softly as I could." I'll bring the doctor over, " I said , turning to leave the room." Jay will bring the doctor here anytime soon, stay with me till then, you didn't sleep well did you?" she asked worriedly." I slept well, wife, " I said , holding her hand in mine. " Jay wasn't the one who took you away Fenrir, Alpha Boron did, he used a disguise and came into the castle," I explained feeling bad for what had happened." I know, I heard his heartbeat when I got into the car but it was too late for any escape, it's not yours or Jay's fault," she said, smiling at me again." Nothing like that will happen again," I said, taking another look at her frail body on the bed." Can you have the doctor check my heart? I felt an immense amount of pain back in that place, she said as her face twisted in remembrance of what had happened.My mind darted to the moment I was trying to link my mind with hers." I'm sorry about that wife, I'll have the do
Jay ran in behind me, his eyes widened in shock, seeing the battered body of Fenrir, he moved to the door that Fenrir had run out of." Don't kill them, Jay, take the rogue wolf, and whoever you see to the underground, and I'll make them pay for what they did," I said, gritting my teeth in anger." What about Alpha Boron, these people are not going to confess to him doing it no matter what, and there is no evidence that he did it, " Jay said, analysing the situation." Take them to the White room in the underground dungeon, I'll find a way to deal with that Boron myself," I said carrying Fenrir out of there.My body convulsed with the fear of anything happening to her, the cuts on her body, her feet, and the blood that had already stuck on her, looked grim.I'll kill whoever dared to do this to you Fenrir, I said, dropping her into the car, I drove as fast as I could in the night, and the car whooshed Against the road before stopping in front of the hospital.A stretcher was brought f
Alpha Zeev's POV " My cell phone rang beside me where I held Fenrir, who was fast in my hand, grunting from the annoying ringtone of it. I picked it up, looking at who it was. " Jay," I muttered before picking it up. " What is the matter Jay, I asked huskily. My voice devoid of any sort of emotion, I could sense trouble from the other end of the line. " Zeev, there is a problem here, Martinez and his wife have been attacked. " What happened, who initiated the attack?" I asked, removing my hands gently from Fenrir's body. " We have no lead yet, no one from Italy has agreed to it and it seems like they're telling the truth," Jay said, explaining the situation. " They're both fine and nothing is wrong with them," he said. " Alright, I said about hanging up the call, " Zeev can you please make it here anytime soon. Martinez is a strong man but he's covered in fear and worried about his wife's safety, Jay said lowering his tone. " My wife is here as well Jay, I'll be there in a whil
Fenrir's POVI opened my eyes to a dark room, without a single streak of light." Zeev?" I called as I began to get fearful, the dreadful memories of the dark traumatised me and I began to shake violently. " No one is going to come to save you Fenrir, not your Alpha Zeev nor your maid, you're all alone here, " the voice in the dark spoke up again.I made no sound and waited to hear more words from him, trying to concentrate on his heartbeat to be a human or a wolf.My ears caught in the strings of his heartbeat before I was distracted by the loud barring of a metal.It was Alpha Boron, it was the same heartbeat as the one in the car and the small one I'd caught on to in Asteria." Zeev is going to come and I promise that you'll meet your end here," I said, clenching my jaws tightly.A loud disgusting laugh escaped his lips as he roared throughout the entire building." You know what amazes me about you Fenrir, you're Feisty and your confidence is unmatched, unlike your sister Mara, a
Alpha Zeev's POV I held Fenrir's hands as the happy smiles plastered on her face mesmerised me. I'd never seen her smile as dazzlingly as that before, the soft sunshine outside made her face glow. " Let me take you somewhere" I said, tightening my hand around hers, as I halted a cab. " To the Zeev's castle please" I said, moving into the cab with Fenrir. " Where's that," she asked as we got in the car, "it's a surprise, you'll know when you get there," I said with a small smile on my face. The window was lowered down, giving a more excellent view of the outside, as she kept her eyes outside. The sudden twitch in my hands that she grabbed surprised me. " What's the matter Fenrir? what happened?" I asked agitatedly. Her face was thrown in confusion as she stared outside, trying to find what I couldn't decipher. " I heard a heartbeat Zeev, a familiar and a powerful one, it sounded like one that I've heard before," she said, focusing hard on remembering where she had heard it.
