My father prepared himself and was ready to see the Alpha King at the crack of dawn the next day. I came out with my nightwear, having just been woken up by the sound of him issuing orders to the enforcers. He was dressed in his uniform and it made a clear statement.

As I looked at him, I felt uneasy. I did not want my father to do anything dangerous because of me. In the past, he got his head chopped off for defending me. I would not forgive myself if I cost him his life a second time.

“Are you leaving now?” I asked a question with an obvious answer since I was overwhelmed and did not know what to say.

“Yes.” His face was set with hard lines. “You do not have anything to fear. I have given the enforcers orders so you cannot leave the house without them.”

“I had not planned on going anywhere today,” I responded.

The air wafting off him was chilly, freezing. I felt I was a child again, watching my father from far off, wondering what kind of a man he was. He was closed off, his outfit

    It was chaotic but the person who stirred up the chaos had become elusive. It had been three days since my father last came home and no one, including Mr. Kim, knew where he had gone. Ever since the rumour spread that my father would support Koa to be the Alpha King, I had only seen him a handful of times and he had refused to discuss the matter with me. It was as if he believed that if he kept me out, I would naturally lose all interest in the matter. The opposite happened. The more he tried to keep me out, the more curious I became. Thus, despite the complete silence I received from Koa’s end, I prepared to write him a letter.He must be too busy to think of me. Now that he had my father’s support, he must feel there was no reason to write to me. His incessant letters suddenly stopped and I did not even glimpse his shadow in over a week, not to talk of his face. It left me feeling irritated.After repeatedly chasing after me and vowing to make me fall in love with him and become his

    “He was sent on an ambush disguised as a peaceful negotiation,” my father said with a sigh. “They have become more proactive in their quest to eliminate him.” He rubbed his eyes which had been overtaken by ugly dark circles.I stared at the battered wolf whose blood was everywhere. No matter how hard I stared at the wolf, it did not move. It looked – dead. There was barely any sign of life in him. “Alpha, you called…” Doctor Lorenzo came into the room and sucked in a sharp breath upon seeing the dastardly wolf laid out. “My goodness.” He got to work as he mumbled under his breath. “Miss, you have to step aside.” I think the words were directed at me but they came from such a faraway place that I could not be sure. “Persephone,” my father’s tired voice rang out and a cold hand grabbed my bicep and tugged at me. I followed like a ragged doll.There were so many things in my mind yet I had no concrete thought. The ground underneath my feet seemed to spin and my ears were ringing. My e

    No matter how I looked at it, it was not my father’s place to tell me what to do and what not to do. Doctor Lorenzo said Koa’s condition did not look good and he had tried his best. It was left for Koa’s wolf to do the rest. My father insisted I was not allowed to see him and that I had to stay away from the room he was in. Because I could not bear to see Koa lifeless, I agreed with my father to save myself the distress but then I remembered I did not have to follow my father’s words.I had stayed away throughout the day and it was now midnight yet I could not fall asleep. Everywhere seemed more silent than usual, even the birds of the night seemed to have disappeared. Thoughts of Koa kept me awake.Koa could not die. In the future I knew, he became the Alpha King. He must have been through worse things at the hands of the Luna Queen but he still managed to defeat her and claim the throne. He would not die. I knew the future. But I had changed the future too much. Everything was happe

    Despite him shifting back, he still did not open his eyes. In fact, his human form looked a lot more wretched than his wolf form. His skin was pale with colourful bruises and a good number of bandages. Yet, I was thankful to see the rise and fall of his chest. I could put a finger underneath his nostrils and feel his breath. He was no longer on the verge of death.“As expected of the Alpha Prince.” Doctor Lorenzo was all smiles. “His recovery is fast. I had feared the worst but his wolf is powerful. I am glad. Miss, you can rest assured he will be back to full health in three days or less,” he informed me.Three days? I still had to wait three days to see his stupid smirk? I forced a smile at Doctor Lorenzo who was almost bouncing on the balls of his feet with my father who continued to look irritated at the door.“Will you go to your room now? I was informed you spent all night here,” my father spoke without bothering to hide his irritation.“Yes, I should be on my way.” I went to my

    His eyes were open. Despite him still being confirmed to the bed, his eyes were open and his lips were pulled up in a smile that looked painful. When I barged into the room, Doctor Lorenzo was startled but when he saw me, he beamed.“Miss, are you not surprised?” He asked, “As expected, a royal Alpha wolf is incomparable to little Alphas like us. I have checked his vitals and everything is working well. He should be out and about by tomorrow.”“Are you sure?” As I spoke to Lorenzo, my eyes remained fixated on the man in bed.Our gazes locked and I did not attempt to turn away. My mouth felt dry as a sudden lightness came over me. It was as though a heavy bag had been taken off my back and I had become as light as a sprite. My heart also hammered loudly in my ears.“Yes, I am certain. It may even be earlier. I have given him some pain relief for any lingering pain.” Doctor Lorenzo did not hide his pride at having such a great patient.My legs wobbled as I took a step towards the bed. T

    KOA’S POVI had a dream. In that dream, Persephone was telling me how much she liked me, how much my smile brightened her day and how much she wanted to kiss me. The expression on her face was so soft, I knew I must be dreaming. There was no way she could make such a tender expression. Not to my surprise, I opened my eyes.Everything hurt, from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet. I gritted my teeth to bite down on the pain but it did not help much.I knew when my father sent me to a place where I had never heard of that something was wrong but I had not expected to be ambushed before I even arrived. He had set me up against a battalion of warriors and I came out the victor but I had not expected to even make it out alive. All I knew as I snapped their necks was that I could not die without a fight.There was nothing but blood in my eyes as I passed out and when I opened my eyes again, I was in Alpha Adelard’s mansion.Now, Persephone had prohibited me from leaving. If I so m

    “Elder Raphael, how are things at the pack?” I asked the old man.“How do you plan on making do with your promises to me?” He spoke with a hard face. “Cassius Raven has become the Alpha King’s man. How do you plan on bringing him down? I have staked too much in this so you better have a solid plan.”“Do you trust me?” I asked, and he sneered.“This is not about trust. What good would trusting you do for me if I do not achieve all that has been promised?” He was agitated. He continually bounced his leg and after a while, he tugged at the neckline of his shirt. “With Cassius working for the Alpha King, do you think he will be so easy to drag down? He spends more time in the palace than in his office these days!”“That should be enough to disqualify him as an Alpha, isn’t it?” I asked. “Have you done what I asked you to do? That is the first thing you should have reported to me.”“Cheeky –“ He pursed his lips. From where I sat, I could see him tighten his fist as he looked at me. “Yes, I

    The next day, I received a letter from Arya who poured out her grievances against me. The letter was simple and it went like this; I thought we were friends but you have ignored all my letters and I have been too scared to come over to the Crimson Wolf’s fortress. If you still value what is left of our friendship then you should come to my event. It is the first of its kind in my pack and I have invited many influential people.It was amazing but I had forgotten all about Arya. The last time I read her letter, she had been talking about writing a sequel to her novel. I was not interested in any of that. I had connected with two powerful women thanks to her so there was no reason for us to continue to drag on our farce of a friendship.Her letters reminded me that I was the one treating this friendship as a farce. She had taken me to be a genuine friend of hers from the little, almost negligible efforts I had put into maintaining said friendship in the past.Since she had invited me to

    The day had come. The day I had been looking forward to since I admitted my feelings for Koa. The day of my Mating Ceremony. My friends were gathered around me and we talked and laughed, gossiping amongst ourselves before the start of the ceremony.“Here.” Luna Evenly handed me a box. “I was going to give this to my daughter but I ended up with a useless son. Since I am on the verge of death, I would like to see it on display once before I die.”“Are you giving this to me?” I asked as I looked at the sparkling diamond necklace that had been finely polished and screamed of opulence.Its design was old, the intricate patterns on it something that the jewellers in our time would find difficult to recreate.“Why are you giving this to me? Your son has a mate.” I felt uncomfortable receiving something so precious.“His mate is not much better than he is,” she answered with a derisive scoff. “It is customary to receive things like this on the day of your mating. You have no mother to hand ov

    You cannot run away from what is coming to you. Especially if Koa Deimos is the person delivering your retribution.I felt a shiver run down my spine as I watched his cruel smile while the enforcers in the hall sprung into action. The Luna Queen had her hands behind her in a matter of seconds while her mate swayed on his feet trying to stop the enforcers from dragging her away.“Leave her be!” He was shouting but the only bit of respect he could command had been stripped away from him now that he was no longer the Alpha King. He was merely a middle-aged man standing in the way of justice and it must have been the last bit of respect the enforcers had for him that stopped them from shoving him out of the way when he tried to obstruct their work.“Koa Deimos, how could you?” The past Alpha King was shouting.Everyone in the hall witnessed the fall of the haughty Luna Queen who made life hell for many.**After the official ceremony, there was a procession. Dazzling white horses pulled an

    Rumours were a wonderful thing. They could create a monster that did not exist. I learnt this and used it to my advantage. Thanks to Hannah, Sylvia, Sonia and Hannah’s boy – friend who is a boy – who I never met, I was able to create monsters when I needed them. I was also able to stir the direction of the public as I liked. Thanks to the amazing people around me, I achieved everything I wanted. If there was one thing I learnt in the past, it was the power of people. Having people in my corner helped me.“As always, you are gorgeous.” Emma Rose took a step back as she admired the fitting of her latest masterpiece. “You make my designs shine, Miss Adelard. I am more than grateful that you made your father bully me into working on your engagement – eh –“ Sylvia gave her a pointed look that made her trail off.“You can mention my last engagement,” I said. “We broke up and he died. There is nothing to keep hushed up. I’m unlikely to feel anything if you suddenly bring it up so there is no

    Even though I knew what the outcome would be, I was still pleasantly surprised to hear that Koa was officially the Alpha Prince of Deimos. He finally received the title his father had delayed giving him and I was one step closer to my ultimate goal.From the beginning, I promised to make him king and I promised myself that the people who served him would not die as they did in the past and make him lose all semblance of sanity. Now that he was the crown prince, there was little stopping him from finally ascending the throne as soon as the Alpha King stepped aside or lost his life. The throne could only ever go to him now.Satisfied, I got dressed and set out to see him. During the long journey to the palace, I went over the next steps. Would it be ideal to announce our relationship at his coronation as Alpha Prince? Would it be okay to hold a mating ceremony after? Now that the Luna Queen could not do much to discredit Koa and stop him from getting to the throne, she was much less of

    KOA’S POV “We cannot give the Luna Queen time to act,” Persephone was saying.As usual, once I returned, she was back to scheming mode. I missed this woman so much, I was just happy to be in her presence. Since I touched her, I had been cursed to crave her and the months we spent apart, I had almost gone insane from the way I missed her. There was very little to hold onto as I thought of her constantly and wondered if something had happened to her or if she had found someone else. Now that we were together, even if all she was talking about was something else, I was content.She looked less burdened now. Even with the fatigue on her face, she moved with a carelessness that I had never known her to move with. Was it because Cassius Raven was out of the picture? Did he have such a great influence in her life? He must have. He had, after all, killed her in their previous life so she must have lived every day cautious of him. I could not explain how awful I felt coming to this realizati

    “Fancy seeing you here, Alpha Cassius.”He was as wretched as I imagined. When I thought of my final retribution against Cassius, he was always like this, chained to the ground with dirty clothes and eyes that begged for mercy. There was not much life in his eyes when he raised his head. It was not the apologetic eyes I had imagined but this one was better. The look of resignation filled me with joy. “Perse,” he called my name with a choked emotion. “I am sorry you have to see me like this.”“Why? I am excited to see you like this. I love seeing you like this.”He was nothing but bones hanging inside clothes that were dirty and smelly. That beautiful face that had all the women falling at his face was gaunt and sickly. It had been months since he was captured, months where he tried to escape multiple times but failed; enough time for him to have suffered mental torture and repented of his sins. When I thought of how I spent seven days locked up by this man, I felt that this punishme

    In the banquet hall which the Alpha King had prepared to welcome the warriors, Randal dropped a bombshell that ricocheted throughout the hall. He would not be the first prince to give up his title especially when there were other princes and he wanted to avoid a battle of succession but no one expected him to do this, especially not his mother.“Haha, the prince is tired,” the Luna Queen shouted over him. “Where are the servants? Come and help him settle in.”“Your Majesty, we are still in the middle of the welcoming ceremony,” Randal spoke to his mother with steel in his tone. Really, where did the Randal I knew go to? This one was too cold, too detached to be the same man that left just a couple of months ago. “Please, maintain decorum.”“Boy, you better get your wits about you.” The Luna Queen lost all semblance of falsities. “You were born a prince and you must take your duties seriously. How can you even think of throwing them away?”“I have an obligation to Deimos that is why I

    “What do you mean I never wrote to you!?” Things got heated between us in no time. “I wrote to you every week. There were nights when I could not sleep, not because I was physically injured but because of the silence from your end. Even when you were not responding and my wolf was too embarrassed to keep sending letters into a void, I still wrote to you. You are the one who never responded!”“You never wrote to me. Even when you did not write to me, I wrote to you but you never responded. I had to stop when it became clear that you abandoned me!” I shouted at him. “I thought you had found a belle in Black Wolves and could no longer be bothered with me!”There were even days when I feared he had found his mate in the Black Wolves pack and he did not know how to break the news to me. There were also days I thought he had been using me and that he had found no more uses for me. I thought all kinds of things, mourned his death when there was no news of him for a while and celebrated when

    “You are all set.” Sylvia took a step back to admire the work she had done on me.I looked into the mirror and the woman in front of me was objectively beautiful but I could not bring myself to care much. I could not bring myself to care about a lot of things. My mind was reeling and although the kingdom was jubilating, I felt hollow inside. The rebel leader of the Black Wolves pack had met his end, the rest were being rounded up as fast as possible. Everyone was celebrating the victories and anticipating when the Alpha King’s troops would return.“You are going to dazzle today as always!” The girls surrounding me who helped put me in this fancy dress beamed at me.The atmosphere everywhere in the kingdom was bright. The mood was refreshing. Everyone laughed at things that did not even deserve to be smiled about like they were compensating for the days we were too scared to laugh.“Right. I think this will sell out soon, also.” Dead inside but alive outside, I was still the biggest mo
