As the rogues entered, Alpha Ciandra closed her eyes. She wasn’t going to put up a fight and not even once did she wonder how they entered when some of the Vagabond Pack’s warriors were guarding the border.She didn’t need to call out for death anymore, it was already here and unlike the moon goddess who had turned a blind eye and deaf, death heard her perfectly well.Alpha Ciandra said goodbye to her father and promised if they meet in their next lives, she would protect him first before everything and everyone else.As sleep started slipping in, Alpha Ciandra heard the movements increasing. She waited and waited. Patiently like a kid waiting for their mother to feed them soup. Like a kid filling her penny jar hoping in the end she will buy herself something good.Nevertheless, what she expected would happen didn’t.Loud steps could be heard and then snaps. Trees broke. Murmurs could be heard and still, no pain in her. No wolf was sinking its teeth into her neck. No one was killing h
The accusation in their eyes was visible. Everyone has heard one rogue wouldn’t speak unless it was to Alpha Ciandra. The rogue’s request to speak to Alpha Ciandra was suspicious.The ones who lost their kids wanted to steer far away from Alpha Ciandra while those who lost their mates wanted to attack Alpha Ciandra, they would have and made sure she went six feet under.As Alpha Ciandra walked from her haven to the packhouse, she fought off the sadness that dripped in her. If only anyone asked her how she was feeling, she would have informed them she wasn’t happy that the rogues attacked their pack.She would have told them she kept hearing the tear of skin and the cracking of bones.The agony cries from the wolves as the rogues killed them.But alas, no one cared about that. What they cared about was finding a way to make her pay.Alpha Ciandra pushed the door and entered the packhouse, she was surprised Alpha Alphonso wasn’t at the door waiting for her. Earlier, after he told her sh
Garrick grabbed her shoulders and screamed to her face, “it is your fault I have become a laughing stock.”“Oh, come on. I spoon-fed you the pack. I took away all the hindrances and one thing you are already whining about. How about a thank you, brother.” Gael replied, prying away herself from her brother.“Don’t call me brother, I am not your brother,” Garrick said through gritted teeth while fisting his hands.Gael growled at her brother. It was one thing to say it was her fault while it was another for him to tell her he wasn’t her brother. Gael lived for Garrick and wanted nothing but the best for him.“You are not invited here, ever again,” Garrick yelled.Gael smiled, telling herself there was no way her brother meant that. They only had each other.“You are standing in this gigantic office because of me. You are the alpha because of me. If I hadn’t shown up, you would still be Hunter and Ciandra’s lapdog. So, little brother, don’t forget I will snatch it if I want it. I created
“We are under attack.”Alpha Ciandra hummed. The pack could burn in hell for all she cared. Alpha Ciandra had been serious when she told Alpha Alphonso she was never going to prove herself to anyone.They were never there for her… she was merely returning the favor.A smile spread wider on her face, she removed the cover from her head, ready to hear the cries coming from outside.“Alpha Ciandra,” Avery called from outside.She rolled her eyes and pulled her legs to her chest. Grinning, she whispered, “let the dance begin.”“Alpha Ciandra.” Avery’s voice was fading away. “I am sorry, okay? I will help the rogue. I will help you. Please, come outside.”“I never asked for your help, Avery.” Alpha Ciandra thought.[FLASHBACK]It was her fifth interview with Lameck and by now, Lameck was used to her coming and talking aimlessly and never pushed on why he attacked the pack. Alpha Ciandra was still accompanied by Avery and when she advised her to go outside and train since the pack depended
Was this the end of the cruel and noxious alpha?The wolves from the neighboring packs had the same question regarding the current event ongoing in the Dark Shadow Pack.The continuous attack on the pack elicited different emotions regarding the pack. Nonetheless, no pack volunteered to help them, after all, the alpha has always been bad.The wolves were mourning again and Alpha Alphonso was pacing inside his office, he knew he had to find a solution and fast. Or he would end up having less than five hundred wolves to lead.He would become the laughing stock.His already susceptible territories would become an entry to anything and anyone.With Beta Pierre away, he didn’t have anyone else he would ask for help. Elder Delora didn’t survive the war and Elder Karela was locked away inside a cell after she crawled away during the fight.Alphonso jeered, hating that Elder Karela decided to help Alpha Ciandra to escape instead of helping his pack.The mere thinking of Alpha Ciandra threw hi
It wasn’t sheer luck but rather a pure coincidence. Alpha Ciandra had crossed out anything related to luck from her life and that was why it was hard for her to explain why out of everyone he met was Maria. The same woman who had offered her a place to rest when the elders chased her away. Once again, Maria didn’t question her or anything. She fed and provided her with a place to stay. Alpha Ciandra saw the happy smile playing on the woman’s lips, she smiled back.“I am glad you are happy this time,” Maria said.“I am too.” Alpha Ciandra didn’t know if it was true she was happy or not. But at least Maria wasn’t worried about her. Furthermore, she didn’t think she would indulge in any one of the horrors she had called her life for the past few months.Alpha Ciandra finished eating and cleaned the plate. She bid Maria good night and went to bed.Opening the window, she saw something from outside moving, she closed it immediately with a bang.Maria came running, “is everything okay?”Al
Desperate times call for desperate measures.Alpha Alphonso didn’t care if they were questioning his sanity. No matter what they said about what he has become, he had one thought: Finding Alpha Ciandra.He didn’t even realize he was losing his touch just because his second chance mate was nowhere to be found. Beta Pierre and a group of warriors kept returning with the same answer, “no one has seen or heard about her.”It was tiring.It has been days since Alpha Ciandra escaped and by the looks of things, if a new month started before he found her, it might have to forget her forever.His luna kept asking why he wasn’t letting go when she was right here with him. She was good, or so she said. Nevertheless, Alpha Alphonso didn’t accept him. Although he had broken his bond with Alpha Ciandra, he still felt it within him, it was super weird and the more he kept wondering, the more he had known there was no escape.Some of the days when he wasn’t with her, he had told himself it was okay s
Whether it was from the goodness of his heart because he was changing, or because he cared. The pack couldn’t care less and neither did the other elders.The past deaths of the other elders hadn’t been felt as this one. Elder Karela had been respectful and never threatened anyone with her witch powers. She was always doing better when it come to protecting them.So, the pack was angry when they heard the alpha killed her because she didn’t accept to locate Alpha Ciandra.They were mad at Alpha Alphonso for doing irrational things without thinking. Although Elder Karela never wanted to find Ciandra, she would have come in handy in days to come if they were attacked.Everyone knew finding a witch inside the wolf's territory was hard.Elder Karela had been exceptional.*The good witch, Elder Karela never thought she would spend her entire life serving arrogant wolves. When she cut the deal with the moon goddess, she hoped she would find a pack where they will ask her to even teach them
