"Killian, right? Like king Killian or don't you have a title?" she asked softly, walking towards the throne."I am not a king" he replied hastily."And why not? You have a giant throne and you have these strange powers of disappearing and appearing at will. You should be a king" she nodded and bowed slightly before him.She just wanted to get the plague and get out before her cover would be blown. And that would surely happen if she stayed longer than planned."There is nothing you can do to make me not punish you and your brother" Killian insisted."I don't think so. You must have heard that I am very full of myself" Sophie winked at him. "I am a queen and queens are only meant for kings" she shook her head pitifully."I am powerful than most kings" Killian boasted."Maybe you should admit you are one then. Because I am only for kings" she held the helm of her dress and pulled it up slowly until her thighs were exposed. She started licking one of her fingers"I am the king of kings"
They approached a place. There was an old building that was partly wrecked, in front of them."We are almost there. Baldwin is very smart to hide whatever it is here. This place is very secure but not for you, you should know that already" Killian kept yearning boastfully."Are you sure it is this place?" Sophie looked back. The place didn't look secure to her."That's what was written on the parchment. And the parchment happens to be in the coffin where you expected 'the thing you are looking for which you can not tell me about' to be" Killian smirked.They entered the building. There were no guards.Killian moved towards a raised platform in the center and lied down on it."What are we doing here?" Sophie questioned."We came here to find what you are looking for" Killian smiled. "Just trying to show you how durable this is" he smacked the platform jokingly."So where is it?" Sophie asked impatiently."It's in here" he slammed the platform again. "Come and unlock it" he stepped asid
"She is in danger!" Alpha Jones growled impatiently and rushed out of his hiding place.David came out from the other side of the woods and rushed to him."I already knew it. She has stayed longer than expected" David nodded. "Let's get her out from there" he scoffed readily."I told her it isn't a good idea but she wouldn't listen" Alpha Jones snapped remorsefully. Alpha Jones and David ran to the shrine. It was empty to their surprise except for the coffin on one side."What's happening?" Alpha Jones asked impatiently"Maybe they have moved her" David kept snooping around like he was not satisfied yet."Moved her, I don't think so" Alpha Jones stood in the center, looking at each side keenly. "There is no sign of struggling in here. She must have followed them willingly" he concluded."Why would she do that?" David asked in confusion."There's only a reason. If the plague isn't here" Alpha Jones walked to the coffin and popped it open. "She went after the plague, there is nothing h
Sophie walked towards the shrine. She was stunned as the guards around didn't bother to stop her. They just kept staying out of her way.She entered and found Baldwin seated on the throne."Where are they?" she asked sternly."Your father was just here, standing on the same spot you are. He kept asking me to kill them but I refused. Do you know why? He is afraid of you and I'm not" he scoffed and came down from the throne."He is not my father" she yelled at him. "Our fight is not with you. Just let us go" she sighed."Your fight is not with me, yet you spilled my blood. You spilled my blood" he pretended to be crying, then bursted out laughing loudly."That was a mistake. Mistakes do happen" Sophie replied softly."And it has happened again. You coming in here will be the last mistake you will make" Baldwin raised up his hand.In a twinkle of an eye, Sophie was grabbed by two men and dragged away. Before she could know it, a small bag had been put over her head. After walking aroun
Baldwin tried opening his eyes. All he could see were mushes festered all over the surface above.He was obviously lying down on his back. "Baldwin" Dillon tapped him.His memories flashed back as he saw Dillon. He remembered everything. He was coming to him after he was mysteriously stabbed by Alpha Jones."Dillon, I was out?" he asked."You had lost a lot of blood" Dillon nodded."I was attacked. Thanks for saving me" he coughed."Don't mention. I owed you a favor and I think we are even now" Dillon retorted."No" Baldwin replied sharply and sat up. "We are not even" he refused."You were dying and I just brought you back" Dillon's face seemed faint. He must have thought Baldwin was being ungrateful."You haven't done anything" Baldwin coughed again. "Because once I stepped out of here, same people that did this to me will repeat that" he explained.Dillon heaved a sigh of relief."So who are these people that you have crossed paths with?" he asked casually."I didn't cross paths w
Baldwin stared at Dillon without saying a word. His eyes were red enough to tell how much he was angry at him."I didn't know you were coming" Dillon said calmly. He was obviously ignoring his countenance, pretending not to notice his wrath.Baldwin breathed heavily. He was angry that Dillon had failed to carry out his mission as he had promised."Alpha Jones is still alive" he gasped."That is good news, isn't it?" Dillon chuckled."You owed me a favor" Baldwin retorted furiously. His anger was rising up as Dillon failed to take him serious."You should stop saying that, don't be an ingrate" Dillon replied calmly. He was not moved by his outburst."Why, you need to repay my kindness to you" he fumed.Dillon stood up, he walked close to Baldwin until they could hear each other's heartbeat."Look around this room, this is where I sleep, eat and live all my life. Do you know what a life like this make out of people?" he paused and scoffed. "It turns them into monster. I have become a mo
Alpha Jones slowed down before getting out into the yard. He heard the guards mumbling some words among themselves and he wanted to hear them clearly before showing his face to them."Why is he so worked up over a little boy?" one of the guards was asking his counterparts."He must be a big threat, for him to be so strict with it" another one muttered.Alpha Jones had earlier given them instructions to watch out for a boy. He was not sure they could catch Trey judging by what he heard about him and the fact that Alpha Nolan could count on him for such a notable task."Can you just stop chattering and let us focus? We were told this boy is very perfect. All he needs is a little distraction. And here we are distracting ourselves with his news" another guard said like he was scolding the others.Alpha Jones peeped into the yard to detect the guard that spoke so sensibly. He dashed out and walked straight to him.The guard was startled. He stood firmly with his chin raised up."What's you
The whole chamber seemed to be trembling. It continued gradually into a tremor. David held the edge of his bed as it was about to overturn.He woke up in his room and sighed heavily."Just a dream!" he sat down and buried his face in his hands, trying to catch his breath."Not just a dream" a deep voice broke out suddenly.David stood up immediately. He saw a man holding a large bandana."Just have to wave this, the harder I wave it, the scarier your dream will be. So simple" he chuckled and found himself a seat."Who are you and what are you doing in my bedchamber?" David dragged his feet underneath the bed to pull out his sheathed sword. He couldn't feel it. It was no longer there."Sit down and stop looking for this" he showed him his sheathed sword. "And the question of who I am. I am Dillon also known as death. I am here to kill you, your Alpha, your Luna. All of you" he winked at him to tease him."Then go on with it. You already have the sword and you are called death. What els
Present day.Sophie rushed to CassandraCassandra had fallen down and was groaning hard after pulling the dolls apart."Do not let him escape" Cassandra gargled. "Go after him" she pointed forward.Alpha Nolan started moving away slowly.The Mage held him down with all his strength but Alpha Nolan continued his movement dragging the Mage along.Sophie stared around searching for Crookdove. He was nowhere to be found.Alpha Jones ran out from nowhere with David. They both jumped on Alpha Nolan.Alpha Nolan threw both of them away with a punch. Both of them groaned as they landed on the ground.The Mage was still holding him tight.Sophie ran into him and kicked him to the ground. She looked around but she still couldn't catch a glimpse of Crookdove."Where's Crookdove?" Alpha Jones asked anxiously."I can't find him" Sophie was angry.Alpha Nolan got up again to start running away. He pushed Sophie off her body and continued running to a cornerSophie ran after him. She got to his side
"I'm sure this will seem strange to you. But I'm happy to tell you that after a lot of years, this Manor had been taken back from the imposter" Alpha Nolan addressed the gathering in the yard.The gathering muttered indinstinctly. It was clear that they were not welcoming him."You address them, now" Alpha Nolan snarled at the Mage."This is the new Alpha of the Manor" the Mage endorsed him. "The announcement will be made properly tomorrow. This is just to let you know we now have a new Alpha. He is the Lord of all guards, maids and servants in this Manor" he said conclusively.The gathering kept chattering as they moved away. They were obviously confused and with the Mage endorsement, they had no choice than to murmur."I'm taking a tour round the Manor" Alpha Nolan said loudly after the gathering had dispersed. He waved at Sophie to join him.The three of them went outside. Alpha Nolan kept checking around. He couldn't get satisfied.Sophie was surprised to see Cassandra coming tow
Present day.Sophie and Alpha Jones were still very confused about what to do. Alpha Nolan had become unkillable. He wouldn't also leave the Manor. "Should we just accept the fact that I have won and hand over to me what's mine?" Alpha Nolan asked teasingly."You have lost woefully. We won't stop until you meet your end" Alpha Jones retorted. "I'm fighting you to death" he proclaimed."I think you know only Crookdove can kill me now and I wonder how you are going to do that" he made jest of them."Take her away" Alpha Jones said to David and attacked Alpha Nolan.Sophie pushed David away. She rushed towards Alpha Nolan too.Alpha Nolan hit both of them together and they fell on their backs."I will kill you if you do not stop" he asserted.The Mage came to him. "What do you want?" he asked calmly."You must be the Mage, I want you to announce me as the Alpha of these Manor. Accept defeat and I will spare all of you" Alpha Nolan affirmed."You can not be the Alpha of this Manor. Your
"Why should I kill her?!" Alpha Nolan retorted"Sophie is going to be your downfall, your death, a lot of bad things in your life. You will keep getting near but you won't reach" the Diviner was very certain."That's simple. I can just change her name to Dana. Dana won't be my death, right?" he solved straightaway."You are joking. Changing her name changes not her destiny" the Diviner proclaimed. He got up and left."I think we should obey the Diviner and kill the little girl" Matt whispered to Alpha Nolan."Do you know how many soldiers I lose weekly and do you know how that is affecting my progress?" Alpha Nolan asked trivially.Matt was dumbfounded. He couldn't say anything."So remain quiet like that" Alpha Nolan shunned him.*********************"It still feels like a dream to me, I was nothing few days ago. Now you've made me a Luna. Just like that" Cassandra was all smiling on the bed. She was clearly waiting for Alpha Nolan's arrival into the bedroomAlpha Nolan couldn't get
Sophie rushed at Alpha Nolan. She was not ready to hear anything from him."Didn't you hear what I'm saying? Don't do anything stupid" Alpha Nolan insisted. He didn't run from Sophie or fight back."Crookdove!!" Sophie called him out.Crookdove stood behind Alpha Nolan with his hand stiffened. He was waiting for Sophie to give Alpha Nolan a push."Come on. I warned you" Alpha Nolan's confidence was not diminishing.Sophie pushed him effortlessly. Alpha Nolan made it very easy. The knife went into him. He groaned and exhaled to contain the pain."You have all meet your end" David hummed.Sophie started groaning. Blood was streaming out of her body without being cut."We are going to die together. Tell him to heal and cauterize my wound" Alpha Nolan breathed heavily. He was in great pain.Sophie could feel everything he felt. They were both losing their breath."Tell him to heal me now or we will both.... die.... Tell him" Alpha Jones could no longer held himself up."Crookdove, heal h
"Let's get him the beasts quickly" Sophie yelled hastily and she took off immediately.The giant soldiers flooded in and blocked them."I thought you said you have defeated them mentally?"'Alpha Jones asked the Mage."I just managed to escape. They are still alive and well as you can see" the Mage replied awkwardly.The soldiers started attacking them immediately."We need to fight them" David pulled his sword and engaged them."I think they won't attack us again after Rhine had died" Sophie was confused."Rhine is not the one controlling them. It was Martell" the Mage deduced."Stop! Stop!! Martell doesn't want this" Sophie said loudly but the soldiers didn't bother to listen to her.In no time, David and Alpha Jones had been grounded. They were now fighting for their lives."I need to find Martell" the Mage wanted to steer away."If you will get us anything. Get rats or any living animal for Crookdove" Sophie instructed him.She believed if Crookdove is revived. He would help them f
"I'm going to enjoy this, the Alpha fighting the Luna" Alpha Nolan reacted happily and focused on them.Sophie looked up at Alpha Jones. "Yes. Come and get me then" she stood straight waiting for him."Thank you" Alpha Jones said excitedly. He drew his sword while moving swiftly towards her.Sophie weaved aside to dodge his sword. She hit him on his nose.Alpha Jones staggered back and held his nose. It took some times before he recovered."I didn't know you are going to fight back" Alpha Jones shook his head. "You are welcome" he prepared to attack her again."This is how it should be. He is your enemy. But you are blind by the good side and the bad side. There is no good or bad. We are all trying to do what we have to do" Alpha Nolan encouraged Sophie."Just keep quiet" she yelled at him."You have picked the wrong side, Sophie. But it isn't too late. You have me here. I'm ready to accept you and overlook all your past mistakes" Alpha Nolan didn't stop.Sophie had her mind already
One of the giant soldiers finally got to her. He pulled one of her legs. "I'm one of your commanders!" she cried out. "I'm the Fourth" she breathed heavily.The giant soldiers didn't seem to understand a word she was spitting. They converged around her. With the staunch look on their faces, they definitely wanted to tear her into pieces."Stop!" a voice said suddenly. "Martell didn't want you to hurt her" the Mage walked through them and lent Sophie a hand to get up.The giant soldiers buzzed and moved away from her. They seemed clueless."They stopped?" Sophie was shocked."Only Martell controls them, if he is not around. They are useless" he helped her and they went into one of the chambers."What about David?" Sophie recollected how David had nearly took his life out of him."He's out" the Mage scoffed."Dead?" Sophie wouldn't want that."No. He's only knocked out" he shook his head."That's better. I didn't know you have so much fight in you" Sophie expressed her surprise."Alre
Sophie panted. This was an experience she never expected. Having to fight someone she didn't want to fight.She could have tried to subdue Alpha Jones and got him tied up in some ways. There was no way she could do that with David supporting him.She locked herself up in the throne room but Alpha Jones and David were relentlessly hitting the door to break it down.They were very engrossed in it and the door had started showing them some cooperation.They would be in the throne room with her within few minutes.She started crying. She wouldn't wish to die this way. Being killed by the only man she was in love with "That will be better" she mustered up courage. She decided to kill herself before they would make it in.She searched around for what can be used to commit suicide. All the sharp objects she could get were not promising. None of them could give a fast painless death.She remembered a dagger that was hidden in Alpha Jones throne. She skimmed over and brought it out.She went
