Selena in her purple crepe dress looked beautiful and her brown wavy hair cascaded down her back, sweeping her body gracefully. Alex watched her walk through the aisle gently in the art showroom. He had asked her to dress up for the adventure and brought her here later that afternoon. They had three guards following them.

Indeed, this woman before him was beautiful and down to earth. And he had been right about her. She was indeed a flower. A beautiful one in fact and he didn't mind at all that she might have been gifted to him to manipulate him. He just wished right now that she'll be impressed by all he had planned to do for her and they could get down that night.

"These are wonderful." Selena ran her hands through the historical artifacts that were displayed in a glass box. "I didn't quite picture you as an art lover and how did you know I love art."

"Aunt Ellie." He coughed so that the words turned out to be incorrigible and he was grateful she didn't hear or maybe she did.

    CHER Until she started working for her Father, she hadn't had the thought of escaping his orders, his command, and his laid-out procedures for her. She had never thought of walking away. But now that she had been with the royals, Selena's life had taught her something. Humans can evolve in terms of developing feelings. It only has to start from somewhere. She squeezed the lemon hard until her fingers dug into its flesh and furs were beginning to cover her hands. "Ouch?" She cried as the lemon juice went right onto her face. What has been happening to her these days? It seems as though her powers were uncontrollable and much as she tried to conceal her Wolf, they always seem to try and come outside. To do what? Take a peek. She ran her hands over the furs and whimpered. It was scanty and painful. Her bones were cracking and all she could do was sit down on the floor of the kitchen, and cry it away till it hurts no more. There were no maids or cooks in the Kitchen but they could e

    DRAKE "Our cover is blown." Drake glanced up at his friend who stood by the fireplace. "What do you mean our cover is blown?" Krepe drew his brows together. "That scruffy little child who became King overnight has gotten another clue and is one step ahead of us. Is there something we're not doing?" Drake said with an air of disdain. Krepe shot him an impatient glance. His friend shrugged as if to say it was all in his hand if Alex had found out so quickly as he had planned on taking things slowly. Now they don't even have a backup plan. "What's our next move, Krepe?" "We attack." "Why?" Surely he must be drunk. A churn formed in the pit of his stomach. Krepe walked towards his phone and dialed a number. "Hello, I'd like to know how ready you all are. From what I can see here, things are about to get bloody." "What? That quick? What the hell are you planning man?" So, in a few hours' time, this man had planned to attack Forester and even he does not know about it. His heart san

  • ALPHA KING OF DEMONS    HIS FEAR

    KING ALEX A grey wolf walked stealthily towards the park, a blue flower held between his jaws. He looked around, his nose sniffing to catch any scent, which he did get. Selena's scent. But where was she? He shifted back to his six feet self and walked to where he had asked Selena to wait for him. "Selena?!" Alex yelled out her name and kept moving around the perimeter of the park. He'd never been this worried about losing someone. Not even when Amelia had gone missing and he wondered if the same had happened to Selena. He grabbed his hair and his eyes stung. He yelled and screamed. It has happened yet again. Another of his loved ones gone. He climbed the trees to get a better view of the park but couldn't still see a glimpse of Selena. Where the hell is she? "She's driving me nuts!" He yelled. He would be greatly annoyed at her if he finds out Selena had only gone for a walk or was impatient and had walked out of the park but he will be more annoyed with himself if she had been

  • ALPHA KING OF DEMONS    THE HUNGRY HYENAS

    ALEXAlex couldn't believe his ears of what he had just heard about Selena, but his eyes couldn't believe another thing as well. While he had been out of Forester looking for Selena, his Kingdom had already been surrounded. He got down his car with his guards as they stood at the entrance of the bridge where Hyenas all gathered around, their mouths dripping with saliva and not missing the opportunity to cackle.He had forgotten all about the formation that these people had managed to surround his Kingdom without warning. It all just made sense to him. Selena had faked being kidnapped so he could go out to look for her and let his guard down. He shouldn't have trusted his feelings as much as he had trusted Selena. He felt like punching something hard. Something solid like a rock or like a wall but what about taking it out on these Hyenas. He moved to climb the bridge but who he saw made him stop in his tracks.A tall, muscular and big black wolf stepped out from the back of the Hyenas,

    Alex looked into his brother's eyes when he asked if he indeed knew Selena was a devil."Yes, I do. But..." Everyone straightened to hear what else he had to say. Ethan's ears perked and his eyes were fixed on his brother. Alex knew that if he tried being smart, he might hurt himself but thank God for a second thought."But what, Alex? There's no doubt she killed our little sister. Why is she your wife? Why are you still keeping her?""Ethan, if you truly seek justice for Amelia, do it in a way she'll be pleased. You can't go about joining forces with people who have been our enemy for ages. As far back a thousand years as I know.""At least I know them for who they are and they never pushed me out of their roof. They welcomed me." He gritted his teeth."I'll forgive you if you imprison Selena or better still sentence her to death. Only then will I attest to it that you have gotten justice for our sister.""No." The rain kept drizzling on their bodies, soaking them to the skin. The Hy

    ALEXBagdana stepped in, his black coat sweeping the floor of the big room where Alex was tied. The tension in the room was as thick as if it would take a knife to cut into it. Selena looked at Alex being tied to the chair and she wondered why he couldn't save himself. However, that didn't matter as her heart was full of questions about both of them. The earlier they know who they are to each other, the better.When she thought she had found one whom her heart wants, she was wrong. He had only shown her care so that she would be kept in the dark about what has been going on. It all started with Amelia's death and when she thought they all would believe how haunting it must have been for her to lose her best friend, they thought differently. She was the enemy here.The pretty lady with red lips looked at her and she could swear she saw the shock in her eyes."Who are you?" Selena asked, her fangs threatening. Although she enjoyed the look of confusion Alex gave her, she wished to know

    KREPE"This isn't how I expected you to act." Krepe sat on the couch next to the fireplace beside which Charlotte stood, fuming. When he heard how she had kidnapped Selena, he was happy that his plan was going in place and he had sent Ethan and his men over to Forester so that they would have destroyed the Kingdom before his arrival. He knew how Alex would be so worried about Selena and will surely go to search for her. But somehow, his plans had gone down the drain all because his daughter had been a fool."How did you expect me to act?" Charlotte asked."I thought I wanted to do this on my own. But somehow, I had this feeling that you must have planned everything."Krepe sighed and he wished he'd been hard on her for a long time. Twice in one day, something had gone wrong. His relationship with his accomplice and friend, and now, his daughter. He would have to work on those faulty relationships."Actually, I decided to get to Alex through another route, so I used who he loves most."

    CAUTION: A LONG, INTENSE AND SEXY CHAPTER AHEAD. BON APPETITE Selena dabbed his peeled lips with a towel soaked in warm water, her face squeezed in a displeased expression. Alex was now on the bed, the white sheet now over him as he watched Selena take care of him. Although most of her actions were triggered by how mad she was at him.They had been like that for three days now. Taking care of him, feeding him, tucking him to bed, and dressing him up had all been done in silence. He was hurting inside of him not because of the injury or the way she usually dabbed his wounds with harshness as if deliberate to make him hurt the more, but because of her silence that was killing him."Is this how you will continue to act, Selena?" He managed to ask her as she turned to carry the warm water with which she had been using to dab his lips."How am I acting, your Highness?" She asked, dropping the bowl of water and turning to face him again."Don't ask me. You know very well, what I'm talking

    "Bagdanas?" Alex called at the tall, dark man that stood beside him with his arm outstretched and a huge line of red lightning coming out of his palms. He was gritting his teeth. "You came for me." He muttered and he looked at him gratefully. When Bagdanas would drop his arm and turn to him, Alex grabbed him and embraced him. "You did come for me!" He said excitedly. Bagdanas nodded and took a glance at Sathanas. "You have failed this time again, Father. However, this one would be different from before. You will be erased from existence and your name will no longer be in the mouth of anyone." He said, his face strong and rigid. "My treacherous son. Let's see how you'll stand up against my other children who have proven to be so loyal." Sathanas mocked but Alex huffed. "Really? Let's see what you've got to say about this then." Someone stepped up beside them both and swirled her sword. "I'm sorry Father, but I've chosen this path." "Asmodeus?!" Sathanas thundered. "Unfortun

    THIS CHAPTER IS A THROWBACK TO SOME OF CHER'S CONVERSATIONS WITH HER DAD"Come in."A young lady pushed open the door at the landing, holding around her the hooded cloak. Coming to the hyena territory at this time may seem unwise but she had to be in on the plan as she now seems confused. She has heard of the unfortunate fate of many ladies who walk around the place at that time. Especially if they are not shifters. Non-Shifters are people who are purely human.As she stepped into the room, she was met with a comforting smell of burnt coffee and flowers wafting through her nostrils. A few candles burnt in the corner of the room illuminating only a few parts where a man sat wearing a hat. The moon in its half form shone through a long window that overlooked a huge part of the garden outside. The rest of the space is filled with a stool, and two empty glasses that showed a visitor had just left.

    Selena opened her eyes to see fire and brimstone falling, together with screaming and crying for help. She straightened but then realized she had been tied to a pole. She was kept in a cage made of huge iron bars. There was no way she could escape. Talking of escaping, she was too weak to even try.She squinted her eyes to see clearly but the only thing she saw was rocks and stones all over with smoke emanating from every area of the place. She knew immediately that she was in hell. But how? Thinking back to when she was at the bar, she could remember a young good looking Italian guy coming over with a glass of chardonnay on a tray."Your order?" She looked from the booth where she had paid extra to sit, alone.She remembered not having ordered anything yet and she didn't want to let down her guard anytime soon. However, this vibrant-looking man was here in a black and white shirt and trousers uniform stretching a tray o

    Alex was furious as he got into the room. He couldn't fight this battle alone. He had gone five blocks from Chelsea's house and asked around for Chris's parents but he was told no one around born such a name. And there hasn't been any stranger in the past two months. Chris wasn't Chris or maybe he was and was just used.But what about Selena? Where the hell was she? Even if she was upset, she should be ready to come home so as to resolve the matter. He was worked up even when almost all the bars and every other place she could go to had been shut. It indicated that Selena has been kidnapped too. He had only one way to solve this. Go down to hell. But how? By going back to Forester. He would have to find someone who could channel him there. The last time he'd tried, demons had been freed. It was at this point Alex was beginning to miss Bagdana.He breathed in and out before resolving to go back to Forester and settle this once and for all.

    Dressed in a black and white striped woolen top and jeans that stuck to her body, Chelsea walked next to Chris on the street, hands locked. They could pass as couples to anyone looking at them and it made her toes curl. In as much as she was happy that her crush was here, taking her out, she still was worried about him. She had seen what these demons could do, especially to people who are unarmed. But she wouldn't let any harm come to Chris.They branched a cafe and bought two vanilla grande lattes with six pumps that are hot. They got out and walked out, heading to the restaurant."So, how are you feeling, Chels?" Chris asked, their hands still locked and she looked up at him."I'm trying. This is really hard for me but, I have no choice. It's like my destiny to tied to do this." Chelsea shrugged."Or maybe you don't have to worry yourself." Chris urged and she thought about it for a while. Eventual

    Selena felt uneasy with what Chelsea told her but she needed to hear from Alex himself so as to be sure if what she heard was right. Was that what Bagdana meant by her being created for Alex? And Sathanas in Krepe's body telling her Alex is nothing without her.It was dinner time and Chelsea had just finished making hot chicken soup. Unlike the city, Edison was quite warmer but with the season, it's more reasonable to have a chicken soup that hot. In the next few hours, the temperature will drop and they will be grateful they had a hot dinner. She also made casseroles and shrimp crackers, spreading them on the dining table. After settling, she waited for Alex to finish taking his shower and join them."I read in the papers today that the number of suicide shot up since last night. About ten people hung themselves this morning." Chelsea announced as she dished out food in their bowls.Selena just nodded but her mind was a

    Chelsea punched the number on the phone and Chris picked up. She was shaking all over and her face had swollen up. She raked a hand through her hair as the phone rang which he eventually picked up."What's up, Chels?"She couldn't speak, because as she opened her mouth, water streamed down her cheeks."The...the chants." She sniffled. "I think you told me the wrong one."Silence ensued and she knew he must be thinking. "Didn't you ask me to tell you the first transmission order?"Her heart jolted. "What?""Yes. That was what you told me, right?" Chris asked and her heart dropped so also did her body on the sofa nearby."No." She cried softly."Are you okay, Chels?" He asked, concern evident in his voice."We released hundreds of demons into the world." Her voice broke and she could see the horror look on his fa

    Alex looked up over the candles that were lit and gathered to form a circle in the abandoned temple. He had connived together with Selena and Cher to come to the temple just down the street at 4:06 am when it was still early.The temple had ancient bricks and cement that were broken in various places. It looked like it had served as a hiding place for people during wars. Alex looked around and saw the empty place that was in turn filled with broken bricks, rocks, torn fabrics, bags, wooden materials, and so on. They had cleared a small part of the place and lighted seven candles at the center as Chris instructed."Make sure whatever you do, be careful." Alex had heard the boy tell her and she nodded before hanging up.Now they had finished the setup. The seven candles were placed in a circle, two red fabrics were tied to metal and placed in the middle. Chelsea took the olive oil she had grabbed from the store and began t

    Alex woke with a start, sweating profusely and his heart thudding against his chest. He gripped the sheets tighter and something churned within him like fire. What had just happened? Sathanas had erased his mother from existence. How could he?Like a thunderbolt, he left his bed, eyes darkening. Selena stirred on the bed and turned on her other side. Good. Because he wouldn't want her to be involved. But how could he call on Sathanas, talk of fighting him? Besides, the book is now with him which he can use to destroy him. He would have read how to kill him. But he still needed to talk to Chelsea. She alone has the answers to most of their questions.He glanced at the bedside clock and saw that it was still at the wee hours of the day, 3:00 am. He grabbed a shirt and put it on, walking stealthily out of the hotel room.Alex got to the room next to his and rammed on the door, waiting for a reply.
