Charia's Pov____________ "Father!" I screamed as I forced myself into the house. The guards didn't want to let me in and that made my suspicions grow wild. "Alpha Lugard!" I yelled as I walked into the mansion. Melissa was the first to approach me."Charia. What are you doing here?""Get out of my way!""Charia…""MOVE!""Alpha Lugard Wolfenstein! Oh, how tremendous is your evil work!""Who is that slave that has no bit of respect for my father!" Delphi walked into the living room. I stopped as I stared at her furiously "Oh, dear sister" she mocked."Where is your Father?" I shouted"Charia?" My mother came out too, a lot of surprises on her face. "What are you doing here again? Leave now before your father teach you a lesson""I want to see Father!""How dare you just barge into the house like that? With no discipline!""Mother, leave her, she has become a stray wolf since she left here, rude and mannerless!""What is GOING ON?!"I would admit my confidence died down immediately Fat
Zara's Pov______________I stared in absolute shock when Charia kissed Ice…ON THE LIPS! It surprised me because I wasn't aware if they had anything going on with them that I didn't know about. Was this their first, second, or third time? Had this happened before?As she left and I wiped my tears, I turned to Ice with a questioning look. He also looked shocked but I just needed him to explain what happened. The guards switched off the light and we were back to darkness."Wow. You didn't say something was going on with you both" I said "Nothing is going on with us.""Then what was that? Had that happened before?""This is the first time. She's just scared and wants to assure me that…""You still trust her! You still believe that she's going to save us. Because of her, you were hurt by Alpha Ryder and now her parents have kidnapped us!""I don't believe her okay? I'm just trying to! I'm keeping my hopes up till we get out of here alive!"I laid back on the hard wall. I could only hear
Charia's Pov_____________________I was going to save Ice and Zara, even if it meant Alpha Ryder's death. I wasn't going to let the opportunity of saving those that loved me so extensively pass by. My family hated me and I had no business with Alpha Ryder too. Before my last breath, I wanted to show appreciation to those who took care of me.As I walked into the Wolfcup mansion, Peter approached me. I hid the new wolfsbane dagger given to me by Delphi while I was leaving. I hid it under the long flowy gown I wore.He approached me with an umbrella, because of the enormous downpour. "Miss Charia, you shouldn't walk in the rain. Look at how drenched you are. You should have placed a call to me. I would pick you up anywhere"Peter seemed like he didn't know who was his boss. He always treated me calmly and made sure I wasn't in any way uncomfortable. I guess Alpha Ryder kept it a secret that I was a criminal and Peter thinks I'm just one of his boss's love interests."Peter. I promise I
Charia's Pov_______________Three days. Deadline off. No Zara and Ice in sight. Alpha Ryder was still alive. Mission failed. Death approached me. My heart was heavy and full of woe, and I felt like giving up soon. My eyes cast down, and I felt so lost, so alone. I had been running for miles, but still felt like I had not grown.I thought of all the pain and sorrow, the battles I had fought. I felt like I was losing, and my spirit had been caught.I wished I could just end it and I would. I would die by the dagger of my own hands.As I placed the dagger at the tip of my stomach, tears rolled down my cheeks, I was a disappointment to everyone and there was no point in living. I closed my eyes and pressed the dagger further, I never knew it was so sharp but I didn't stop, I groaned in pain and pushed it further. I feel the dagger tear my skin as blood gushed out of my body. I looked down at my stomach and see blood, I panicked. I couldn't go further, not with what I was seeing. I was i
Alpha Ryder's Pov__________________________________I, Alpha of the pack stood at the head of the table, surrounded by my most trusted advisors and guards. My expression was grim as I addressed them, and I put the little boy Jacob to stand on the table too as I spoke. He had been in my care since none of his people were around. Emily wanted to know where he was from, but since she had found her mate, I had been acting awkward toward her."I want every female wolf with the name Charia found and investigated," I said firmly. "We need to know the pack she is from and any other information that might be relevant."The guards around the table exchanged glances before one of them spoke up. "Alpha, that's a tall order. There could be dozens of wolves with that name across the packs.""I know it won't be easy, but it's crucial," I responded. "Charia is a name that isn't as common and it might be a clue if we knew the origin of the name to lead us to a selection of different packs and to make
Alpha Ryder's Pov__________________It was ridiculous to know how much effect Charia's well-being had on me. I had been a mess for the past few days. Extremely worried about her health, searching thoroughly for her pack and keeping my distance from Emily who used to be my support buddy.I visited the hospital twice daily and I was certain if there was no destruction during the visiting hours, I would have loved to stay with her during her tough times. Seeing her lay there in a coma hurt my feelings and all I wished was for her to wake up.At this point, I think I needed her scent before going on my daily activities because there was so much peace and comfort in holding her hands and smelling her at the hospital. Such a sweet angel.I have gotten used to talking to Charia even when she wouldn't respond. All I wanted her to hear was, none of these was her fault. Her born wolfless, her parents and pack maltreating her, her mission to slay me, the compassion to save her friends from her
Charia's Pov_______________I opened my eyes to the sound of beeping machines and the sterile smell of a hospital. It takes me a moment to remember why I'm here. I killed myself. My heart raced as I tried to move, but I find that I can't. I'm trapped in a hospital bed, wires and tubes attached to my body.Suddenly, the door opened and a doctor and nurse rushed in, their faces etched with worry. "Oh my God, you're awake!" They exclaimed, so excited.I tried to speak, but my throat felt dry and scratchy. The nurse handed me a cup of water with a straw, and I take a small sip, grateful for the relief."How long was I out?" I managed to ask, my voice barely above a whisper."Three days," The doctor replied. "You were in a coma."I felt a surge of panic at the thought of being unconscious for so long. "Am I going to be okay?" I asked, fear lacing my words.The doctor took my hand, her grip firm and reassuring. "You're going to make a full recovery," she said with a small smile.Relief was
__________________________________Alpha Ryder's Pov______I got home with so much excitement after Charia had held onto me today. Although she was not fully awake I was happy all my words paid off. I had a feeling her spirit was listening, somehow. I just wanted her to wake up.Peter welcomed me with excitement too as I walked into my living room. "Good news," he said. "We found the Melissas"My heart lifted with joy as I tapped Peter's back and took a seat. "Are you for real?" It seems the moon goddess luck shone on me today."We have a total of thirty packs with Melissa as their members and we have a total of ten packs with Melissa as their maid. Since Ice's description goes with a servant, I suggest we go for the maid's investigation first""That is very good. Ten is a good number to work on. What are the pack names?""Okay. Here's the list. Red Moon PackDanri Dark PackClover Howl PackLock Heart PackNight Shade PackMoon Valley PackLitha Moon PackGreen Moss PackBlue Rock
FINAL CHAPTERCHARIA'S POV.______________A few days ago when it happened right in my eyes, and I stood there, watching the outcome of the intense battle between Ryder and Ryker, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Happiness washed over me as I realized that the wild wolf Ryker, who had caused so much chaos and confusion, was finally gone. The house was now filled with a sense of peace that had been absent for far too long. My heart swelled with joy at having my Ryder back by my side, where he belonged.But amidst the joy, there was a tinge of sorrow. Ryder had been forced to take his own brother's life, a burden that no one should have to bear. I approached him, my voice filled with so much condolence, "Ryder, I'm so sorry you had to do what you did. I know it was a difficult decision, but please know that I'm here for you, and we will navigate this together."He looked at me with a mixture of gratitude and pain in his eyes, and he squeezed my hand gently. "Thank you, Chari
Melissa's Pov________I felt so delighted everything was over and the imposter was finally buried in ashes a few days ago. But the one thing I did not feel relaxed with was Peter's attitude towards me and then when he invited me for a date to talk about it, I was relieved.Peter had been acting awkward since all this was over and I needed an explanation on why he was doing that to only me. He walked into the private place where our tables and food were placed and I stood in respect. He asked me to sit back and apologized for being late."I'm so glad you set this date up for us" I nervously smiled.Peter and I spent months of vacation together and in my entire existence have never felt or experienced something as sweet as that. It was the best moment of my life and I wouldn't trade Peter for anything."Yeah. I'm glad too" he responded. "I have something to say to you Melissa" his face wasn't friendly and he really looked bothered.I was scared, and my heart beat faster. I had no idea
______The room fell silent as Ryder and Ryker locked eyes, the tension between them noticeable. The air crackled with a mix of anger, resentment, and a deep-seated rivalry that had been festering for years. This was the moment where the brothers would engage in a battle of words, each determined to prove their superiority.Ryker, his voice laced with smug confidence, began, "Ryder, you've always been the obedient one, the one who followed the rules. But you see, being a wild wolf means embracing our instincts fully. Feasting on the flesh of other wolves, tasting their blood, it's in our nature. It's what sets us apart, makes us powerful."Ryder's eyes flashed with indignation. "Being a wild wolf doesn't mean losing our humanity, Ryker. We can control our urges and live harmoniously with our wolf nature. If you want to fully embrace the wild, then shed your human form and go live in the forest."Ryker scoffed, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, and you think you're better because yo
_______Late at night, Ryder changed his mind. After thoroughly thinking about things, he decided not to stay one more hour at Emily's place and so he called for Melissa and asked that they leave.Ryder and Melissa carefully made their way out of Emily's house, staying in the shadows and avoiding any attention. They knew they had to be cautious to ensure a successful escape. As they reached the back gate, Melissa glanced around to make sure no one was watching. Satisfied with the coast being clear, she motioned for Ryder to follow her.They hurriedly made their way through the dark alleys, their hearts pounding with a mixture of fear and determination. Ryder's mind was filled with a whirlwind of emotions as he thought about Charia and the possibility of her being with his twin brother, Ryker. He couldn't shake off the feeling of betrayal, yet a twinkle of hope remained within him that everything Emily had said was a lie.Melissa led them to a secluded spot where Emily's car was parked
Ryker's Pov____ ___My mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Charia and the disheartening news I had just received.As I paced restlessly in the room, contemplating my next move, the door swung open, and a maid entered to serve me food.I didn't need any of that. I didn't need any of the things Emily was offering me, I just wanted to know the truth and how the situation was. I dismissed the maid with a wave of my hand, but as she turned to leave, she called out my name, and I heard her say. "Alpha Ryder"Something about her voice struck a chord of familiarity within me and recognition dawned upon me—it was Melissa.Quickly, I turned over to her and she removed the veil she used on her face. "What are you doing here?" I had to ask.She hurriedly locked the door, ensuring our privacy. "What going on?""Ssshh!" She said putting her fingers on her lips. "I'm sorry" she quickly apologized for the attitude. "We need to talk quietly so Emily would not hear us," she said."Where Charia, wh
___________________Ryder's eyes fluttered open, his head throbbing with residual pain from the accident. As his senses slowly returned, he took in his surroundings, realizing he was in an unfamiliar room. Confusion washed over him, and his thoughts immediately turned to Charia. Where was she? He hadn't seen her since he was rushed to the hospital.Just then, the door swung open, and Emily entered the room, a wide smile on her face that didn't reach her eyes. Ryder's gaze locked onto her, desperation was evident in his voice. "Ryder! Oh, my dear Ryder, you're finally awake! I've missed you so much."Ryder said with a strained voice "Where... Where am I? This doesn't look like home. Emily?""Emily... What's going on? Why am I here? Where's Charia? I need to see her.""Ryder, you just woke up, take your mind off something like that""No. I need answers. Where's Charia?"Emily hesitated for a moment, her eyes darting away briefly before meeting his gaze again. She took a deep breath, he
Charia's Pov_____The door to the room was knocked on severally and I struggled to open the door very early in the morning. I was surprised to see Delphi standing in front of me."Some of the elders are here to see Ryder…Ryker. I haven't been announced officially, so you'll need to be beside him for the meeting." She tried to walk out. I dragged her back."Delphi. You know the truth and you chose to stay with him?""Stay out of it""Delphi, you know my kind heart towards you. If you wanted something you know I would strive hard to get it for you.""I already have it. You destroyed my family and I will destroy yours"I didn't need to argue with her anymore. Delphi already made up her mind about me and her decisions. I walked over to the meeting room where Ryder always held meeting with the elders, I met Ryker sitting on Ryder's spot already and it pricked me like a needle.One of the elders started the meeting with a wolf chant and then stated the cause of the gathering.The meeting
Melissa's Pov______After a terrible round of sex with the head guard, he let me sleep and rest in his room as he went to his duty. Yesterday I wasn't able to hang around because he didn't want Emily to see me and ask where I was from and so I stayed an extra night.After I had taken a shower and gotten an hour's rest. I stood up in the middle of the night and walked toward the room I saw Alpha Ryder in earlier. Luckily for me, he was alone. I was careful to confirm his privacy before I stepped in. But I could hear the sound of showers in the bathroom and I assumed Emily was in there. I walked towards him and tapped his skin trying to wake him up. I whispered his name, but he wouldn't hear. I tapped harder looking around so I wouldn't be caught.He turned in his sleep and his eyes flashed a bit. "Yes, yes, wake up" whispered.The shower suddenly went off and I ran out of the room very carefully, leaving the door opened a bit.I cautiously peered through the crack in the door, my hea
______Ryker and Delphi sat outside the mansion, the moon hung high in the night sky, casting a glow over the surroundings. While they spoke and the moon shone further on his skin, Ryker, no longer able to restrain his primal instincts, felt an uncontrollable rise of power through his veins. The moon's influence had taken hold of him once more, and this time, he wanted blood and flesh.Delphi stood beside him, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and disbelief. She had suspected the truth, but witnessing the transformation firsthand was a shock beyond cognition. She watched as he turned into a wild wolf, his growl harsh and scary. There was only one person she had seen this way and it was Dwight. She was overwhelmed at this sight and began to think of what was said to her by Charia yesterday.As Ryker fought to maintain control, he could see the fear etched on her face."Alpha Ryder, what is going on?" She moved away from him."Delphi," he growled, his voice strained with the struggle ag
