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
MARA's POV I shrieked in horror as I was being held in the dungeon. The dimly lit cave and stink smell filled my nostrils." Nooo, please let me go, Alpha Zeev, I swear I'm going to kill you, let me go, you these lifeless guards, you're all nothing, nobody. I'll make sure Asteria wages war against this pack and burn you all to ashes."I yelled yet in another terror as I was being plunged into the dungeon." Elder Aztec, do something about this, you watched as Asteria was being humiliated, I'm the princess of Asteria," I said, banging my hand on the metal door." You'll be out on the third day, Alpha Zeev has ordered that you be put in here till then, so it's better you just settle down," a guard said from outside.I made a small whimper out of helplessness." What can you do for me, I'll make sure I reward you handsomely," I said, holding onto the metallic door.The guard took another look at me, shaking his head as he walked away.My eyes dimmed with no hope of leaving this dungeo
" Haven't you wondered why there has been no news from Mara," Alpha Boron asked suspiciously." Maybe Alpha Zeev has sent that bitch Fenrir out of the crystal moon pack and has taken in Mara as his wife," Luna Kia responded nonchalantly." Do you think your daughter will be able to make Alpha Zeev leave his moon-made Luna for a girl who's crazy obsessive about him," Alpha Boron piqued up again." Not if the girl isn't my daughter Mara, she's the strongest princess of Asteria and beautiful too, her intelligence knows no bounds and with those treasures she took along, I'm sure she has already been taken in by Alpha Zeev," she said again, imperturbable." No I refuse to be at ease, this is the second day and news hasn't reached us that she is his wife or has been taken in by him," Alpha Boron said pacing around the throne.The sudden entrance of a messenger shocked them both to the core." Your Highnesses, there's big trouble looming, rumours have it that the princess has been locked up
Fenrir's POVI opened my eyes groggily, the smell of Zeev filled my nostrils.The morning sunlight streaked into the room illuminating his face.I stared at the man beside me and his jaws so defined, his chiselled jawline and his broad chest were mesmerising." I don't mind making breakfast for you if I'm so delicious that you can't take your eyes off me," he said huskily.His sturdy arms held my face to his chest leaving no space.My face turned red from his embarrassing remarks." Be a good wife, sleep a little longer," Zeev said, holding me closer. I made a move to free myself from the confines of his hands to no avail." I can only sleep well when I'm sleeping with you." His lazy voice resounded. " Be good and let me rest a little bit more, I've a long day ahead of me", he said , holding back my face.I made no further attempts to move again and went back to sleep. Hours later.The door creak awoke me from sleep and the bedside was empty.Kayla walked into th
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.
