“I Haven’t seen her for the past three days now and it hurts to my bone … the Alpha knows how crazy the mate bond can be and he still chooses to seperate us!” Pascal complained, his voice heavy and sad, almost like he wanted to cry. “I know I shouldn’t be bothering you with all these, but right now…I have no one here to talk to… the people I thought were my friends, ignore me and stay away like I’m some kind of sickness…” he continued, finally looking up to who he was talking to.He had been complaining and whining to his listener for over ten minutes, now he feels a little bit relieved, at least someone was listening to him without intruding or blaming him for anything.Unlike Tahlia who wouldn’t let him talk, always cutting him mid sentence, looking for one word or the other to justify Alpha Caspians’ actions.“Who are your friends? You just mentioned that some people here are your friends!” His listener raised the question, eyes bulging with interest suddenly. Joan had just been
PASCAL The noise and loud sobbing coming out of the building was calling for lots of attention, just outside the Alpha building, some guard and pack members had also gathered there.Whispering among themselves. Filled with curiosity but they couldn't enter to see for themselves what was happening, Pascal rushed into the building, he had every right to go in, as the mate to Katherine. his eye searched for her first and he saw her seated beside The lycan king.Her eyes were unhappy like it had been for the past three days, but today it was filled with something else, she was grimacing angrily at two people who knelt on the floor before her. His eyes fell on Tahlia too, she was also wailing uncontrollable, crying profusely, her eyes red and puffy, she had definitely been crying for hours, grinda was holding her and trying to comfort her with soothing words.Some elders; about six of them, dressed in white and the Elder queen were also seated. They all looked so angry and sad, Pascal q
CASPIAN “Why will you ask your mother to take me away…?… out of the meeting! … don’t I have a say about what my father did to me?..I have told you to stay away from me and my personal business!” Tahlia shrieked at him immediately as he stepped into their bedroom. He rolled his eyes shut and paid no heed to her, he knew she was looking for trouble, he moved past her briskly to his wardrobe, all his intention for the past week had been to stay away from her, as far as possible. He knew he would explode if he gave in to her tantrums and taunting, he would save that for their consumption and rite which was already close.She wasn't having his silence at all. “Playing deaf and dumb now? You want to leave again right?” This time her voice reduced, instead she sounded sad and wounded, he searched her eyes and saw everything he had been aiming to see.He almost chuckled at the realisation, he turned back to his wardrobe and ignored her again, he would make sure she learned her lesson. “Bon
GRINDAThe three ladies stood inside the cool and sparkly pool, enjoying the feel of the hot sun on their skin and the cold water from the pool as well. Several guards and maids stationed themselves around to make sure they were safe. Katherine, grinda and Tahlia always made sure to have their special gisting and relaxation time no matter what. As usual they had decided to meet in front of the mansion today, inside the pool.“I’m enjoying the weather and the whole scenery, '' Grinda exclaimed, breaking the weird silence, the mansion had been cold for the past days and she had made sure of this meeting. Katherine nodded in agreement, but her usual energy and smile wasn’t there. Everyone knew why, including Tahlia, who quickly shared a knowing look with her. Grinda cleared her throat and tried again, this time going straight for the bulls eye. “Okay Katherine … I hate to see you like this.. spit it out!” She asked, swimming away from the shore toward Katherine. Katherine at once let
TAHLIATo her surprise Grinda sprinted after her to agree to the club's decision. She knew her friend would jump into the hottest fire with her, but she didn’t know it would be that quick. They had quickly picked the next day to talk to pascal about it. Standing in his apartment and in front of him right now, they felt like fools. She didn’t know where to start from, he stood there expressionless and quiet. It was so unlike him, pascal was always the noisy and chatty one. Instead he watched the both of them with careful gazes, his eyes jerking from her face to grinda’s stone face, grinda made it obvious that she was dragged forcefully to him. “She’s not happy to be here … why bring her?” Pascal asked tahlia the same and only question she was hoping he wouldn’t” she grinned at him and moved further into his parlour, leaving the fuming grind at the entrance. He didn’t invite them to sit since their arrival, almost like he wanted them gone so soon. “Ohoo so sorry.. I was shocked to
PASCALImmediately Tahlia and Grinda left his building, Joan rushed out of her hiding place, she had been hiding all along in one of the enormous shelves in the parlour.The two were having a cruel discussion about how to destroy Tahlia and Grinda when they suddenly showed up in front of his door.“Don’t tell me that show of absolute falsehood has gotten to you so fast?” Joan inquired in irritation, glaring angrily at the beaming pascal.Pascal shook his head slowly in uncertainty, at this point he didn’t know what to think. He knew the girls were using him to have their own fun but he also knew they weren’t as evil as joan.“I don’t know … if they can help me … I will stay with them… joan you can leave now..” he notified her softly, getting up slowly from his seat.He didn’t want to have anything to do with her furthermore.Just before they entered, she had brought upThe idea of poisoning them! He went along with it all because of his desire to unite with Katherine.Joan glanced at
CHAPTER 54 FIRE ON TAHLIA “Pascal tonight is more fun, I must confess… it’s siiiick in here!” Tahlia complimented Pascal at the top of her voice, the club noise was very loud, he was grinning from ear to ear and feeling so happy about the praise she just gave him.Grinda hasn't said much since they arrived at the club about an hour ago. She was also being so stiff and grumpy, Tahlia looked at her squeezed face and sighed dramatically, rolling her eyes at grinda.Pascal left them to get another batch of alcohol, he had been feeding them with lots of them as usual, all her body was piped up and She was very excited to be in the club once again.“Tahlia …. I don’t think it’s a good idea, coming out here again, regulus will not forgive me this time and I can’t let you come here alone.She stopped dancing at once and frowned at her friend, the whole attitude was getting to her, “I didn’t force you to come with me okay!..,, because of regulus you will leave me here alone right?” Tahlia y
CHAPTER 56UNBELIEVABLE GRINDA Grinda was holding her best friend so tight and close to her like her life depended on it, her wolf frantically screaming and jumping, All her senses had been heightened at once.Although all through the evening she wasn’t enjoying the whole aura but she tried to keep her irritation away from Tahlia, her friend needed the distraction but she felt something dark.“Get us out of here” she growled at Pascal and watched as he walked away slowly from her view, her wolf immediately alerting her that someone was watching them.Turning around to look everywhere but she saw no one, hoping that Pascal would come soon with the security men and get them out soon, she held onto her drunk friend.Tahlia couldn’t move her body anymore, she isn’t in her normal senses, the type of highness was very weird, she knows her best friend very well and knows how she behaves when she gets high. This wasn’t it at all.It struck her mind at once, they had been drugged!, as if to
ALPHA CASPIAN POV Grinda and Tahlia shot out of their sitting position immediately the Lycan king walked into Grinda’s house, he couldn’t enter her bedroom so they had enough time to rush out of the balcony to meet with him.“I looked for you in your chambers and you weren’t there, I knew immmediately that you had come here after I warned you not to” that was the first thing the Lycan king spat at his wife; Tahlia.“I… I’m sorry, we couldn’t stay away from each other without knowing that we are fine… please … don’t punish me” she begged, clasping her hands tighter, the fear grew on her face and body at every second that passed.“It’s okay …. Go back to your apartment … I want to speak with Grinda … you should rest, don’t walk around yet” he responded, forcing his wolf to stay calm.Alpha Caspian was frowning but it was not because he was angry this time, it was because his wolf and darkness were forcing him to get mad at his wife again, and he didn’t want to, especially agter seeing
TAHLIA’s POV Immediately Grinda heard about Tahlia’s recovery she sent her maid to sneak in a letter to Sam, knowing fully well that Sam would deliver the message without getting caught; she loves Tahlia so much that she will happily take the burn if she even gets caught. “Don’t tell me to calm down … I haven’t seen my girl for days now, I’m worried… I can’t believe her husband would do that to her!” Grinda yelled angrily at the guard standing by the door.Beta Regulus; hee mate, had placed the young warrior there to keep her indoors and grounded as her punishment but she had successfully turned him into her gossip partner. Grinda had been fidgeting since her maid went on the crucial and risky errand, she would get caught, including the fact that she hadn't seen Tahlia for days now, all she knows is that Tahlia is better and back to her chambers.The young warrior rolled his eyes at her playfully, definitely enjoying the discussion, he quickly opened the door to stretch his head in
TAHLIA POV The queen mother wouldn’t leave Tahlia's bed side, she had been lying there for a few weeks now and it was getting worrisome, the king as well was distracted but had to be strong for his pack people's sake.“Take it easy…. Just rest your back here, finally you can be discharged .., ohoooo, my dear…. Welcome back” she beamed at Tahlia who smiled widely back at her.But almost immediately her smile waned away and a Worrisome frown replaced it, the queen mother already knew the cause of the immediate change in demeanour, Tahlia had remembered why she’s still in the hospital.“How’s Grinda … how’s she, hope she’s fine? …I totally forgot, please I would like to see her” the doctor who had just unplugged the drip from her hand gave the queen mother a knowing look who in turn gestured for the doctor to excuse them.Same with Sam and her other maid who had been with her for the past week, Sam in particular wouldn’t stop worrying, “you need to reduce the volume of your voice … and
QUINCY POV.“We started talking a few days ago and I’m getting out of here soon… I only came to tell you, maybe you will be interested in coming with me…'' Quincy was whispering in a hushed tone to Pascal but he was practically ignoring her intentionally and Quincy despised it when she’s not taken seriously.“I really appreciate your thinking and thoughts … but pleasseeeeeee… for the love of the moon goddess, you both should leave me out of this and I will advise you as well, stay away from Joan… you are still alive and breathing in this prison … that woman will make life terrible for you” he said back in response to the excited joan.His response affected her mood because when she spoke next there was no smile on her lips or excitement on her face anymore, “what’s wrong with you… ?.. aren’t you smart enough to beat a woman to her game…?… well if you think Joan can screw Me…, ask my sister if you are lucky enough to get out of here” she spat back at him.Anger and pride mixed toget
QUINCY The sound of pascal arrival jerked Quincy up and she jumped up from her slumber at once, there’s nothing much to do in the prison aside from sleep and eat the cold and unsatisfactory food brought to her and do menial labour and hard work which always wears her out.She looked out from her cage door and sighted Pascal briefly before he was pushed into his cage, although she didn’t know him on a personal level she had seen him with Katherine in the meeting hall when her father came to plead on her behalf.“How could you hurt your mate like that…?….” She didn’t wait to listen to the remaining conversation, that’s all she needed to lighten up the fire of her hopes, she knew she could as well use the dangling opportunity in front of her.She waited and leaned in her eyes closer to listen to more of their conversation, they didn’t know she was listening but her prison cage is right beside pascal, “I’m sure he doesn’t know me…. Hmmm it will be very difficult to get him on my side” Qu
PASCAL“I…. I… didn’t do it …. Joan! Why will you accuse me of all these!” I spat back at her, my eyes squinting at her, I was trying to give her our special code sign to cover up for me and I will in return help her.But I guess I had become useless to her, she eyed me furiously and looked away, tapping her foot restlessly onAlpha Caspian’s expensive tiled floor.Katherine had said her own part of the story and left me in a tight corner, same with Joan. The two women were smart and I wish I could lie effortlessly in the Alpha face like Joan Isdoing right now, so I strengthened my resolve and moved closer to the Alpha.“I didn't do all of these things Alpha caspian… Joan is a pretentious liar … I…” the guard who moved swiftly behind me forced me on my kneel before I could catch my breath, cutting off the lies coming out of my mouth.“You are dead!” Joan mouthed at me, instantly I knew I’m in trouble, I shook my head at my self pitifully, I couldn’t even dare look at Alpha Caspian, he
JOAN’s POV It was so easy for joan to deny all the allegations because Grinda and Tahlia weren’t there, Grinda was busy serving her punishment of being locked inside her apartment by her husband, He didn’t whip her like Alpha Caspian did to his wife. While Tahlia is fighting for her dear life, they were exactly where she wanted them to be and if all she had to do is sacrifice one foolish lamb to save her ass, she would do it over and over again.Alpha caspian was sweating prufeously under the cold weather, two air conditioner are in his office, yet he was panting and wet all over his black shirt, he haven’t stop pacing around his magnificent office since he summoned her few minute ago, it was begining to make her eyes turn, katherine sat there on a red leather couch, her eye fixed on the ground.“I didn’t do all of these things and you know it katherine, you are just jealous that your brother wouldn’t send me away and because he loves me, aren’t you Tahlia’s friend? Joan spat at kat
KATHERINE POV“Mother….she’s not waking up, she’s not breathing … please do something” Katherine was howling at the top of her voice, hitting her head fiercely with her hands like it could revive Tahlia.Her mother was by her side at once, eyeing her suspiciously, she had been doing since they all converged in Alpha Caspians’ chamber.“Mother, don't look at me like that… I swear it wasn’t my fault . Ohooo, I should have fought hard for them, I was pushed to the corner by that witch… it’s Joan's mother” Katherine found herself spitting out to her suspicious mother.“What does that joan has to do with what’s Happening to the luna of this pack? How can she hurt the queen…what have you girls done to annoy the Alpha? Ohoooo you girls want to killl me right? and … and where is grinda? I haven’t seen her. Queen Elaine kept shooting questions to the already disoriented and muddled katherine.Katherine was visibly shivering, from the corner of her eyes she sighted Pascal in her brother's tre
ALPHA CASPIANThe seventeenth whip tore through her back and he winced internally. He had been counting to distract himself, his heart hard and unforgiving as ever but her hurt and scream were getting to him every second.“Ahaaaaaaaa… I’m so…. Sorr…. Ahaaaaaa!” she screamed loudly again as the next one hit her hard, Alpha Caspian had ordered his guards to keep hitting her until he was satisfied.Of course he wasn't satisfied with seeing other people touch his mate, let alone hurt her but his demon was out and nobody could stop him now, not even his mother.“You slut! I will teach you how to stay in your place, have been soooo lenient with you, how dare you go out at midnight to the club! Without my knowledge!!” he barked again at her, his eyes never leaving her bloody and injured body. Grinda knelt beside her friend, wailing bitterly as she held her dangling legs and comforted her, as a gift to his best friend and Beta he didn't punish Grinda himself, instead he left that to him to d
