Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 52: Revisiting The Past
*********************** ZEKE: Like the woods, I heard her calling me. I just returned from my travel with Aiden when it happened. The pack's Zeta tagged along because soon there will be a pack gathering, which he must attend. I saw what was happening in front of the café and immediately I jumped in to save her, especially when I glimpsed her intention to act. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have let her go out there on her own. I shouldn't have let her out of my sight. Drusila comes into my study as I'm pacing in front of my desk. "She's asleep now." I sigh, still pacing about the room, thinking hard about my next step. But my thoughts surprise me. I remember holding hands with Marelyn throughout the ride back, and it felt so natural. I've been staring in horror at my hands since then. Whatever happened in L.A stayed in L.A. Nothing prepared me for these heightened sparks between us. I want to protect her and do more for her, but I also want to

I'm staring at Marelyn's father in the flesh. The past sure has grown legs. First, it was Chase Erickson. Now Ivan Everdeen has paid me a visit, one I do not take likely. I snarl at his way of seeking me out. Ambushing me and trying to hold me down with a few silver wolves. Ivan doesn't know what I am yet. They know the rogue Alpha is powerful, but they are probably thinking their measly silver blood will make me tremble. "I haven't gone to see my daughter because I'm honouring our deal first," Ivan says, coming forward. The black cloak hanging off his shoulders tails him. "How noble of you." I don't take my eyes away from him, and I can tell my granite stare makes him uncomfortable. "I want my daughter back." There's fear in his eyes. He fears I will refuse his demand and he will have to return to Carodia without the daughter he sold off. I chuckle. I chuckle so hard I almost choke on the sounds resonating in my throat. "It's too late for that." Ivan grimaces and raises his

Three years ago... I climb a flight of stairs to get to the rooftop of the hospital building. It's my first time here, but Taz Brent's girlfriend had given birth to a human child last night and as Alpha, this has everything to do with me. Deserters have it easy with starting a family, but Taz is a Moon Grove wolf. The decision for a human child amongst us lies with me. We are here because it was born prematurely after seven months. He won't mate with her. Their relationship is already headed for rock bottom, and this might just be the final straw. I don't see any reason for his woman to know anything about our existence. My beta is still with him, but I've advised the pack doctor to make his choice. A human child has no place in Moon Grove. I shove the metal door open and cool air washes over my face like a wave. Dawn smells good, so good. Dust particles get stuck in my eyes for a jiffy and as I rub my hands over them, the first thing I see has me frozen like an icicle. The early m

MARE "Kill the Alpha of Red Valley and my door will be open." Aiden is at Zeke's feet. His Alpha drops the order to murder Chase Erickson, and he nods, gritting his teeth with the will to carry it out. I cover my mouth with my shaking hand. Zeke promised. He promised to not change anything from my life. After seven months, I will return as Red Valley's Luna. Now he wants to kill my Alpha. It takes less than a second for him to notice my presence. I run. I should warn Chase of his plans. So I make for the front door, but just as I'm about to pull it open, Zeke grabs me from behind and lifts me away from the door. He tosses me on the divan sofa and stands tall and strong before me. I'm glaring at him with everything I've got. "How dare you?" I grip the tufted mattress with my hands. "The Alpha of Red Valley has become a threat to Moon Grove. I can't let him live." "That's bullshit, you murderer!" I stand, coming up in his face and breathing hard in anger. "I guess a second time

ZEKE Downstairs, Drusila and Aiden are waiting for me in the living room. I walk in and the look on their face tells me there's more trouble ahead. Aiden still can't look me in the eye. I ignore him and settle into an armchair. Drusila's dressed in boots, jeans, and a flannel shirt. It's not her usual style, so it makes me curious. "I've got news, Alpha Zeke," Drusila says, crossing her arms. "It's always bad." I sigh, patting down on the arm. "Hit me." "Kyra and I got a hold of police reports. It's says all the culprits had a piece of jewelry on them and one story, which was; they don't know how it happened. They can't remember ambushing the Burns café and tossing rotten food at the girl." "Please tell me you got a sample for Taz." I ease back on the headrest, shutting my eyes for a moment. I didn't see any of this coming. Diana Aveyard is a twenty-first century world-wide sensation. I expected that from her fans, though it was too extreme. Now the culprits want us to believe

MARE The sound was loud enough to reach far and wide. It sounded like an explosion and in the next minute, sirens followed. Someone was injured. I know Zeke stepped out a while ago, and I had been with Drusila in the kitchen the entire time. She informed me about the Diamond witches. They were back for me so soon. "A deal is a deal. Your father has no right to go back on his word." I hold my stomach, thinking about Thorin. My baby. I have grown to love this child I've never seen more than anything. Zeke said all those things about my father and Chase, and I spent time in my room thinking about everything. I would have never thought he would sell me, but he did. What makes me so sure he won't kill my baby to get what he wants? "Seven months is all the Alpha needs. Do not cause anymore trouble for him," Drusila says again. I ask. "What do you think is going on out there?" "An accident, maybe." I stare out the window for a second. The sky darkens as night draws near. It leaves me

I freeze above him, completely paralysed with shock and shame. He's looking at me with tender eyes and I realise it's not for me. All this time, it's been Scarlett, only her. I untangle myself from him as I catch the tear that escaped with the back of my hand. He calls after me, but I don't respond because he's calling her."Where are you going?" He says again and I'm grateful he doesn't follow.The door slams behind me, and I fall against it, clutching my heart and feeling so stupid. What was I thinking? He's my captor. The man who only needs me for his heir. A cruel but beautiful man bearing so much pain. How could I let myself feel as he kissed me?He warned me. He said it was like an addiction. Even after burying my heart in the dust underneath his shoes, I still want to return to his room and have him look at me the way he looks at her. Hold me the way he holds her and kiss me...I've wanted all of this since that night in that bathroom, but I've tried so hard to ignore it. Now I'

"Monitor him and inform me first of any changes." He drops his voice as he says, "Let's keep this between us." I nod, even while dying of anxiety. Zeke is safe. I remind myself because I can see he is, but no one knows if he will survive this. I shake the thought away, reminding myself he's a legacy once again. Zeke will overcome this. He has to. When Taz leaves, I watch him for a few long moments, lost on what to do. He's fallen into a comatose state again. According to Taz, he isn't conscious, but I can't shake the feeling he's aware I'm standing right next to his bed, gawking. Zeke didn't desire a mate because Scarlett Burns is the only woman he will ever love. It's crazy as hell, but I can feel his pain and also see it. I wonder what truly happened. Frida warned I shouldn't look too far in, but it's something I can't wrap my head around. Did he murder the same woman he can't stop thinking about? Zeke Van Acker shed tears while kissing me. All for Scarlett, a woman I know nothi

Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 158: Epilogue
I'm standing at the window edge of a hallway in the fortress. Everyone that passes greets their Alpha with a bow. Today is the exertion of the verdict I passed over all those involved in my mother's death. I took her skull down from where it was hung and finally gave her a befitting burial. Chantria Van Acker, after being tried for my mother's death and King Nikolai's death, was sentenced to death. Her execution is today, and Zane doesn't try to stop it. I knew he went to see her one last time at the dungeons last night, but she's his mother. Will that ever be enough? Hours later, Aiden hands me a platter. I open it and find Chantrias head. The last thing I can do for my mother is to replace her skull with that of the person who put her there. I tell him where to leave the human head until it decomposes, and only a skull is left. My brother stops by to see me in my chambers that evening. He doesn't seem angry that I had given the order for her death. She had killed Father, too. It
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 157: Who Will Be King?
ZEKE Again, fire and water will stand against each other. I don't know what the outcome of this fight will be. In my head, I know what I want, but I can't tell exactly what my brother is thinking. It was his idea to do this. I'm not so sure why I even agreed. Revenge doesn't matter anymore. Once I looked into my daughter's eyes, all the pain I felt melted away. I healed. Mare couldn't let go of me all through the night. She was stuck to me like glue because she feared this moment. She feared losing me. My life is finally coming together. I fear losing it, too. The arena roars wild. The entire wolf lands are watching King Nikolai's sons make history. I'm already a record breaker, and he's their king. This fight will have them all at the edge of their seats. The gong goes off and shirtless as we are, dressed in nothing but shorts we fight to the death. I cast an illusion of a cloud over his head, and constant rain falls on only him in the arena. Zane is furious that I'm drenching
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 156: Love Is Pain—Kyra and Zane
KYRA I'm storming into his chambers in Moon Wood's fortress. I just learnt the news of a battle between legacies. There are only two legacies I know apart from evil Jai-Blynn. All of Carodia believes the king has gone mad for wanting to fight his brother, who took down an entire pack and turned them to dust. Zeke Van Acker has gained a name for himself in the city, but that is still far from my point. How could he do this to me? We talked the second our boat arrived at the harbour. Actually, we did less talking and more physical activities for the first few hours after meeting again. I was so sure Marelyn and I made the right choice after spending time with him again. My wolf couldn't stop pining for him, but it seems I'm the only one who felt that way. How could he do this us? Zane says after I barge in, "I know you are angry. Kyra, calm down—I can't believe they just let you walk through easily." "It's not news to anyone, including your other mates, that we are together, Zane.

"That child and I can't exist at the same time on this earth, Mare." "Why, Jai?" I frown, calculating the distance with my eyes. I make a jump for it and shield Kinna from his attack with my body. Summoning my powers, I struggle to get a hold of his mind, but the calibre of power coming out of him is not to be underestimated. Now I realise he wasn't kidding back then in that warehouse. "Your little bloodline powers won't work on me. But Mare, you are no longer my concern. Give me your champion, and you can walk away from this alive." I'm shocked that he's willing to bargain. There's something he knows that none of us do. Something that makes this moment more important to him than ever. I scream hard. "Never!" The force of my voice hits him, but he only staggers back by a step, and I had really mustered up strength with that move. How powerful is he really? "Angering me will only make the terms worse, Marelyn!" "You can kill me, but not my child, Jai. I will never let you touc

ZEKE A Day Earlier... I'm standing in front of the mirror, feeling for my now thick beards. It's a new look I've been sporting. Just yesterday, the action series I starred in aired, and the viewing ratings were through the roof. It's a hit. I've always had blockbusters where I starred as the villain, but never have I been portrayed from a protagonist's point of view in one of them. It's unreal. What's also unreal is what tomorrow is. I know Marelyn is due tomorrow. My chest tightens like every other time I've stared at the date or thought about it. I've been distant. I never showed up for our daughter, but it all got to a point where I considered myself unworthy of being in their lives. She may be happy in Carodia with her date from before. Maybe it fleshed into something more. I can't tell, but it's been bugging me at the back of my mind for months. Scarlett helped me understand what those random slip-ups meant over time. Everything is clear to me now. I stare at my reflection

I don't realise that the doorknob has come off. I stare at the piece in my hand. It broke off, but my mind is fixed on their conversation. She's dating now. It's been just two weeks, and she promised that wasn't goodbye. My jaw clenches impossibly in anger. Finding a new path. Bullshit! I block out their voices and lock myself in my study. I throw my head back over the headrest of the desk chair, blowing out my cheeks. So far, the day has been terrible. I'm nervous. I want to storm into Carodia the next second and restructure the idiot fling's face. She's mine. She's fucking mine! The broken doorknob sits on my desk because I don't know what to do with it yet. Suddenly, my mind is made up. I stand on my feet and head to my bedroom. I open my suitcase on my bed, swiping clothes off the rack in the walk-in closet and dropping them inside it. It's easy not to overthink it. But soon, there's a knock on the open door, calling my attention. Scarlett is holding the broken doorknob, eyein
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 152: Finding A New Path
I've been showing up for appointments with the pack doctor at Blue Silver for the past two weeks since I arrived. He's not who I used to know, and his name is Xavier Scythe. When Ava refused to take me in because of our last encounter, Xavier showed Kyra and I a roof over our head. He is also the next catch as Kyra put it. She wants me to take on his advances and use him to forget all about Zeke. I try. I actually put in effort. He knocks at my door and I open it with a bright smile on my face. "Xavier, how are you?" His hands are locked behind him as he says, "I'm good. How are you?" Xavier runs a nervous hand over his sleeked back long black hair. It's tied up because of how impressively long his hair is. Xavier is a real catch. He's tall and looks hard all over, like a man should, but I don't get that spark from looking at him or anyone else that's not Zeke. Maybe Kyra is right. My world does revolve around only him. "The Blue Silver carnival is coming up. Would you like a p

MARE I see how worried he is. I'm not saying he shouldn't be, but it's another cold truth. She's his forever. I'm the intruder, and I have no place here. We are at the hospital. Scarlett lost her wolf. She's like a human, so I guess that's why we are all concerned because she can't heal. Kyra says, "How can she do this? Overdosing because she wants attention. Jeez." "We don't know that." Drusila chips in from across the waiting room. We are the only ones here at the moment, but it's a hospital people can arrive at any time. Unfortunately, Kyra seems pissed about spending her night here. Zeke is with the doctor. "I'm going to grab a snack." I stand on my feet without glancing at any of them. They still remember how I just cried my eyes out because Zeke made his choice. Now I'm sitting here watching him care for someone else like I wish was only just for me. It's still pure torture. Kyra joins me at the vending machine. I get a chocolate bar while she gets a bag of cheetos. At
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 150: Breaking Point
************************** My eyes crack open. Daylight shines into my room, but I'm still stuck in last night's pack gathering. Zeke wanted a son who would challenge Zane's throne. A female Alpha will never be accepted to lead Carodia. I'm sad for other reasons than Scarlett. My happy ending keeps drifting far and far away. I wonder if he's angry with me. If this will change everything. Maybe he will finally realise that he won't gain anything from me because I can't even give him a proper heir. I will love our daughter with everything in me because she's a product of our great love. I take a shower, anxious about joining the rest downstairs. Will they see me as a failure? I couldn't protect the first heir, and now I've given them a child they can't accept. A while later, I cross Kyra and Aiden in the hallway, just above the stairs. She spares a broad smile, looking over her shoulder at me. "Hey, Mare! I can't wait to meet our princess."
