CHAPTER SIX
The New Plan"I have a plan," Nora stated, "Uhmm..I don't think Ashier will ever let me get close to him, he wouldn't allow us to be together for a minute, not to talk of spending time with him," she went on."So what's the plan Nora?" Gamma Fred asked, "How do we do this and get the throne, you do know that it is important for you to get pregnant for the alpha king right? Only with that can we get the throne," he added."Although I'm not his real mate, but aside you and his people, I don't think no one else knows that in the park," Nora said, "It would been quite easy to get the throne if he is giving me the chance to get close to him but he isn't, he doesn't want to be close to me so we have no choice than to find another way.""But what way? You still have to get pregnant, and with his son, you can't go tricky with that," Gamma Fred was worried, they had been planning for years and he was scared that they wouldn't get what they want, they wouldn't get what they had desired the most. "You do know the usual DNA ritual after a child is born, so we can't be tricky with that, they would find out.""I will get pregnant with his child, there is a way to do it," Nora smiled and pulled Fred down. She whispered something into his ears and a smile fell on Fred's face as he heard what new plan she has come up with."Nora," she grinned and pulled her close to himself, "You are so brilliant, I can't imagine my life without you," he smiled, "I a so glad that I am with you Nora, you are the missing piece of my life."Gamma Fred held Nora tightly, his arms wrapped around her as she nuzzled against him. He brushed her hair back from her face and whispered soothing words to her.She has come up with a whole new plan, a plan that was surprising to Gamma Fred himself, but Nora was still scared that they're new plan might be dangerous.She knew that the pack wouldn't take it easy on them if they find out about their plan, they would be killed on the spot and she didn't want that."Don't worry, my love," Gamma Fred said softly. "Our plan is foolproof. We will get the throne, and we will rule together as king and queen. We will show the world what we are made for and I will finally tell everyone that you are mine." He smiled, and rubbed on her back, trying to give her a soothing feeling, but that wasn't really workingNora sighed and looked up at him, her puff and watery. "But what if something goes wrong? What if we get caught?"She was worried. As much as she wanted the throne and to get Ashier of their lives, she couldn't help but feel like they were in some sort of trouble, and that what they were doing was so dangerous."We won't," Fred replied firmly. "We have everything under control. Just trust me, we will both be fine and we will get what we want."Nora nodded, feeling a sense of calm wash over her as she clung to Fred. He was the only one who truly understood her and supported her in her quest for power.They both wanted power, they both desired the throne and now they were chasing that, they wanted to fulfill their dreams and they would stop at nothing to make it happen.Nora who was Ashier's chosen mate also turned out to be Gamma's Fred real mate, which also made their partnership a easy one, as their mate bond kept pulling the together."I love you Fred," she whispered, burying her face in his chest."I love you too," Fred replied, holding her even closer. "And we will be together, ruling this kingdom as king and queen, very soon."Gamma Fred held Nora tightly, comforting her with his embrace as she buried her face in his chest. They were both desperate to seize the throne and they had been working on their plan for some time now. Nora knew that Gamma Fred was the key to their success, and she loved him deeply. She couldn't bear the thought of losing him or their chance to rule the kingdom.Gamma Fred, on the other hand, was determined to help Nora achieve her goal. He knew the risks involved, but he was willing to do anything to be with her and to gain power. He reassured her that their plan was foolproof and that they would succeed.As they held each other, their desperation and desire for power and love intertwined. They knew that their plan was risky, but they were willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.The warmth of their bodies and the comfort they provided was all they needed in that moment.As they held each other, something shifted between them. They both knew what they were feeling, but they didn't want to rush anything. So they just stayed there, holding each other, absorbing each other's strength.They had to be careful, so Nora wouldn't get pregnant in whatever they do. The only one she could get pregnant for was the alpha king, that was their only ticket to the throne.But then, something amazing happened. Their emotions surged so strongly that they couldn't contain them any longer. With a sudden burst of passion, they broke apart from their embrace and pressed their lips together in a deep and passionate kiss.It was unlike anything either of them had ever experienced before. It was as if they had been waiting for this moment for years, and now that it was finally here, they were going to make it count.Their mouths and tongues intertwined, exploring each other's bodies and emotions with reckless abandon. There were no words between them, just the purest expression of love and desire.Eventually, they broke apart, gasping for breath. They looked into each other's eyes, "I will always be here you Nora, we will get what we want, no one can stop us," Fred said, "As much as I want to be with you and spend nights with you, I can't. I have to be careful so we don't make a mistake, I just want this to be over very fast so I can be with you."Nora chuckled, "Soon, it will all be over," she responded, "Let's get to our plan."With that, they both sat down to plot out what their next step would be.CHAPTER SEVENCaught In The ActBlair sat in a corner of the cell, her heart felt heavy with grief and despair. Tears streamed down her face as she thought about her friends who had been killed before her eyes. She wished she could turn back the hands of time and change what had happened, but it was too late. Her life had taken a drastic turn, and she was now trapped in a world she knew nothing about.She felt like a prisoner in her own body, with no control over her life. Her mind was filled with endless questions about this new world she found herself in, and the people who ruled it. Would she ever see her family and friends again? Would she ever escape this prison and go back to her old life?The pain in her heart was so intense that she could hardly bear it. She longed for someone to hold her and comfort her, but she was all alone in the cell. She tried to wipe away her tears, but they kept flowing, each one carrying a piece of her shattered dreams.Blair felt like she had lost ev
CHAPTER EIGHTThe WarningBlair was lost in thought as she and the other slaves were led back to the cell. She couldn't shake off what she had seen in the woods - the prince, Ralph, making out with one of the maids. She knew it was dangerous to have witnessed that, and she feared that they would come for her.She knew they would want her to keep that as a secret and they would come for her. She couldn’t stop the feeling that kept lingering at her, the feeling that she was in danger and these people would come for her just to make her speak.As they were pushed into the cell, Blair's mind was racing with different thoughts. She tried to keep her composure, but her heart was pounding with fear. She couldn't believe what she had seen - the prince, who she had only seen once, was there, in the woods, with one of the slaves.Blair knew really well that they would come for her, she knew she couldn’t escape that and she was scared of what they might do to her. Blair knew they would want her
CHAPTER NINEThe Broken StatueBlair woke up the next morning with whitish lines on her face, her tears had dried up.She sat up and raised her legs up to her face level, then she rested her head on it, she missed the comfort of her home, she missed how it feels to be with her parents, to be with people who love her.Her friends noticed that Blair seemed distant and lost in thought, they had noticed that since the night before but she wasn’t willing to open up to them.“What do we do now?” Emily asked, “She isn’t ready to tell us what went wrong with her. I still can’t figure out what the guards did with her.”“Do you think he took advantage of her?” Liza asked.“No, I don’t think that is what happened, I think it is something else, but why isn’t she opening up to us,” Amy murmured, “We can at least know what to do and how to help her if she says something but she has just been mute since.”Emily sighed, “I think we can still comfort and console her even if we don’t know what went w
CHAPTER ELEVENTortured“Take her away!” Ashier ordered, not giving room for any explanation from Blair.Blair was pulled away by the guard, her heart racing as she was dragged down a dark hallway. Her mind raced with thoughts of what was to come, she knew that the punishment for breaking something in the palace was severe.Blair struggled to free herself from the grip of the guard, but his hold was too strong. Her heart raced with fear as they approached a dark and ominous room. She had heard whispers of the torture room, a place where those who disobeyed or failed in their duties were punished severely.The guard pulled her into a room filled with torture devices, and her stomach churned with fear. She tried to plead with him, to explain that it was an accident, but he didn't listen.He pushed her down onto a chair and tied her hands behind her back. Blair trembled as she saw the various tools and devices around the room. She knew that she was about to experience unspeakable pain.T
CHAPTER ELEVEN Pain, Agony, And RegretBlair was taken back to the cell by the guard, her back still throbbing with pain from the merciless whipping she received. With each step she took, she winced and let out a groan. It felt like her skin was being torn apart with each movement. She struggled to keep up with the guard's pace, her legs feeling weak and wobbly.As they reached the cell, Blair was barely able to stand. She slumped down on the cold, hard ground and held her back, tears streaming down her face. The pain was unbearable. She felt helpless and alone in a world that was cruel and unforgiving.Blair's friends rushed to her side, offering their comfort and support. But nothing could ease the physical and emotional pain that she was going through. Blair could not stop thinking about how her life had taken a turn for the worse and how she had landed in this nightmare.The thought of being stuck in this cell forever, or worse, being executed during the packs ritual, made her ev
CHAPTER TWELVE The Escape Plan“Blair, I…I might have a plan for you to get out of here,” Liza announced.Blair looked up at her, surprised at what she said, she didn’t know what plan Liza was talking about but she was sure it could be the one to help her out of this mess.Blair sniffled, “Plan? W..What plan Liza?” She asked.“Yes Liza, what are you talking about?” That was Emily.“Blair can never adapt to this world Emily, she doesn’t deserve to be here and for that, we have to do something to get her out of this place,” Liza sighed, “We have to get her out of this cruel world.”“Don’t you think that will be dangerous?” Emily asked, “Remember what they did to you when you tried to escape, the last thing I want now is for us to put Blair in more danger, we can’t cause her more pain and you know that.”“I’m not saying we should cause her more pain Emily, but I honestly can’t keep seeing her in this state, Blair doesn’t deserve any of this. I mean none of us do, but she is still so you
CHAPTER THIRTEENThrown In The Dungeon Blair's heart sank as the guards dragged her back to the palace. She tried to free herself, but their grip was too strong. She felt hopeless and defeated, knowing that her attempt to escape had failed. As they walked through the palace gates, Blair's fear began to rise. She knew the punishment for escaping was severe, and she braced herself for what was to come.The guards pushed her through the palace halls, ignoring her cries and pleas for mercy. Blair's mind raced as she tried to think of a way out, but her thoughts were interrupted as they entered a large room. It was the throne room, and the alpha king was seated on his throne, looking down at her with a cold and calculating stare.Blair's knees buckled, and she fell to the ground, her head bowed in submission. She knew she had no chance against the powerful alpha king, and tears streamed down her face as she awaited her punishment. Ashier stood up and walked towards her, his expression har
CHAPTER FOURTEENWho Is My Mate?Ashier walked back to his chamber along with the guards and the pack witch, Alisha by his side.As they walked, Ashier's face contorted with pain and sweat broke out on his forehead. He felt a searing pain shooting through his back and chest, causing him to gasp for air. The pain felt like a thousand knives piercing his skin and he had to bite his lip to keep from crying out. He tried to compose himself, but his breathing became labored, and his steps faltered. He leaned heavily on Alisha for support, feeling weak and lightheaded. The pain was unbearable, and he knew that something was seriously wrong.Ashier clenched his jaw as the sharp pain pierced through his back, radiating to his chest. It felt like a thousand needles were pricking him at once. He tried to ignore it, thinking it was just his wound acting up again, but the pain continued to intensify. He felt as if his muscles were being ripped apart from the inside, and his breaths became labor
Chapter NinetyLess Than Five DaysPicking up his shaky legs one after the other, Ashier made his way to the dining room, his steps were slow and unsteady. The aroma of the breakfast dishes filled the air, tempting his senses, but as he sat down to eat, his appetite had diminished. The food on his plate seemed tasteless, the flavors dulled by the weight of his deteriorating condition.His head spun with dizziness, intensifying his struggle to focus on the meal before him. He picked at the food, unable to bring himself to take a single bite. Each morsel felt heavy in his mouth, as if infused with a bitter reminder of his own mortality. He couldn't eat the food, he stared at the plate his fork moved in a circular motion as different thoughts raced through his mind. Thoughts of the condition he was in swept through his head.Restlessness gnawed at his thoughts, the realization sinking in that the countdown he had been given did not guarantee him a full seven days of life. It was just a r
CHAPTER EIGHTY-NINELast Five DaysThe soft morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow on the room. The rays danced across the furniture, painting delicate shadows on the walls and floor. As the room slowly came to life, Ashier's eyes fluttered open, one after the other, to behold the peaceful scene.Beneath him, Blair lay sound asleep, her head nestled against his chest. A tender smile curved his lips as he traced his fingers gently through her silky hair. In that quiet moment, his heart swelled with a mixture of love, gratitude, and bittersweetness.Memories from the previous day flooded his mind, filling him with warmth and joy. From their intimate moments of pleasure to the grand dinner where he revealed Blair's family, every detail played vividly in his thoughts. The dance they shared, the tears of happiness that adorned Blair's face when she saw her loved ones again—each memory held a special place in his heart, and he hoped it was the same for Blair.He
CHAPTER EIGHTY-EIGHT Fulfilling Her WishAshier stood up slowly beside Blair who was already fast asleep, and he walked slowly into the bathroom gently and silently so he wouldn’t wake her up. He stood under the shower and turned on the water, letting it roll down his body as he relived the moment of their lovemaking which happened almost an hour ago.He quickly took his bath and stepped out of the bathroom, he needed to find a way to fulfill Blair’s wish, there must be a way to do that and he wanted to do that, before they set out for the feast and the dinner.He walked into the closet and picked up the clothes which she picked for him, he quickly got dressed and walked back to her on the bed.He leaned in and kissed her softly on her forehead.Blair turned and opened her eyes, as if it was the kiss that woke her up, she rubbed her eyes as it was still blurry to see Ashier in her front, fully dressed.“Did I wake you up?” Ashier asked, concern etched on his face, he didn’t mean to w
CHAPTER EIGHTY-SEVENMoment Of Pleasure“I will see to that,” Ashier murmured, vowing and making a promise to her and to himself silently to fulfill her wish.He pulled back and held her hand, “We have to go prepare for the feast,” he smiled as they headed for the room.Blair kept looking around as they walked to the room, she saw the big pool which was at the center of the room and smiled, this was the exact type of mansions she has seen in books and in pictures, she thought it was all picture and imagination, she never knew that such house truly existed.Ashier held her hand tightly, as he thought about the way to fulfill Blair’s wish, it was a hard one, but he still wanted to try his best to fulfill it. It was one of the ways not to ever make her forget this moment, but how would he take her to see her mom and her siblings? How would he do something like that?He sighed as they walked, giving it a deep thought.Hand in hand, Ashier and Blair got the door of the room, he pressed on
CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX The FeastBlair couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude and excitement for what lay ahead of them. The house had surpassed her wildest dreams, it offered a haven where their love and dreams could flourish. She knew they would be out of this place in the next three days, and back to the place, but they could still make some memories her.She had a big smile on her face as she looked around, wishing and imagining how they would come here with their kid after the delivery, she imagined coming back to the mansion to have the family alone time and she couldn’t help but feel elated and excited for that time.Ashier turned to the maid, “Let’s have a feast!” He declared.The maids bowed and made their way into the big and spacious kitchen, getting ready for the feast, the sound of plates and cutleries clasping against each other only made the moment more exciting, and it made Blair look forward to the feast and the delicious delicacies the maids were going to make.She
CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX Last Six Days“You should get mated to her!” The high priest declared.Ashier looked at Blair, this is what he always wanted, this is what he has wished for and he was glad that it was finally going to happen, but he wanted to happen few days to his last day.He wanted to die peacefully with that feeling of being mated with his love, he wanted to leave with that feeling.“If you want that, Your highness, then please give us the day.” The high priest stated.Ashier smiled and turned to Blair, “I will be getting mated to Blair in the next three days, and I want you all to be present there,” he announced, “This shall be the end of today’s gathering, I dismiss you all.” He added.Alisha walked to him, “You should thank your brother, Your highness, he was the one who saved Blair this morning.” Ashier nodded and walked to Ralph where he has been standing, “Thank you!” He murmured.Ralph smiled, “You can call me anytime you need me, I’ll be there,” he responded and bowe
CHAPTER EIGHTY-FIVE Get Mated“Who is the father of this child?” Alisha shouted at her and watched as Nora slowly raised her hand to point to someone in the crowd.Alisha’s eyes widened, “Gamma Fred?”“H….He is the father.” Nora declared.“Fred!” Ashier shouted, still holding on to Blair, “How dare you do something like this!” He shouted.“There is no need to argue or yell at each other, Your highness, just banish these two wicked beings away from this kingdom. They don’t deserve to share this kingdom with us, they are a disgrace!” One of the park members yelled.“He is right, Your highness, these two should be sent away!” Another shouted.“No, I don’t think so,” one chimed in, “They shouldn’t be banished, because they would only get more time together, they should be hung to death!” He shouted.Ashier just stood there and watched as they argued between themselves, trying to come to an conclusion on the judgement to be passed on Nora and Gamma Fred, he didn’t know what to say and wha
CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOURCaught, Red-handed“What!” Alisha exclaimed and turn to Nora, she glared at her from head to toe, like her gaze would throw her off, “I knew something was off from the start, because I have seen it that she is carrying the real heir. I knew she was lying from the start, she is a liar.”“What is happening?” Ashier asked for explanation, he had been so lost since and now the same thing was happening as they weren’t telling him what was going on this time.Alisha smiled, “This means that this woman manipulated the result of the test,” she moved closer to Blair, “Blair is carrying your real heir, your blood line flows in this baby!”A big smile fell on Ashier’s face as he pulled Blair to himself, he was glad that he finally got what he wanted, he finally got the truth. He was already finding it difficult to deal with what the high priest said before that Nora was the one carrying his baby, he felt like everything had come to an end, because he couldn’t imagine being wi
CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREEHis Blood Line“Then, who is carrying the child?” Ashier asked with excitement written all over his face. He hoped it would turn out to be the result he want and everything would go well after that. His heart thumped in excitement in his chest as he waited for the high priest’s response, he was not really scared before, but now when it was closer to finding out the truth and the one who carries his real child, his fear grew.The high priest moved towards the three chalices. “The one with that chalice,” the high priest said and pointed to the chalice, “Queen Nora!” He announced.Ashier’s heart leaped into his throat as he heard that, he wasn’t sure if he heard right, he wasn’t sure if he was hearing the right thing. Was it just a dream? Was it a nightmare? He wanted to wake up from it really bad if it was one, he couldn’t believe what the high priest has said.He pinched and shook his head, just to be sure that he wasn’t making things up and he has heard the high
