AMBER’S POVThe rays of the sun pierced through my windows and poured on the floor in my room. The bright sun had woken me up from a slumber even Grandal couldn’t. I got up and fed him as quickly as possible before he woke everyone in the palace with his loud screams. After feeding him, I got him freshened up. I also freshened up because I was expecting Beth today.After a while, I heard a knock on the door of my room. It was Beth.“Come in, Beth,” I said.She hurriedly rushed into the room and sat down on the bed.“So…Amber?” She called.“Yes.”“What are you doing today? Do you have any plans today?” She asked impatiently.“Me? Of course I don’t. Do you have anywhere you want to visit with—”The knock on the door interrupted me.“Who is it?” I asked with a riddles look on my face.“It’s me, Scott,” Alpha Scott replied from behind the door.I hurriedly opened the door without any further questions“Why are you always knocking, Alpha Scott? You should enter anytime you wish,” I said po
LOGAN’S POVI threw my coat on the coat rack while I walked up to my cupboard. I brought out a bottle of whiskey and two glasses. I placed Gertrude’s head on the table, then I filled both glasses with whiskey.I sighed heavily as I threw myself on the couch. I sipped from glass and laid back as I began to unbutton my shirt. I had gotten pretty sleepy after journeying endlessly without rest, but I still had to give a response to this matter.I heard a knock on the door and I asked who it was.“It’s Luke, Master. I know you might be resting but I wish to speak with you,” Luke said.“You may come in, Luke. He isn’t resting,” Gertrude replied.Luke entered the room and closed the door behind him.“Master, I would like to talk to you about—”“It’s about the letter, Am I right?” I interrupted him.“Yes, Master.”I walked up to my coat and reached into the pocket. I yanked out the scroll and tossed it to him before retreating to the couch.Luke opened the scroll and began to read.“We know a
AMBER’S POV“Why are you asking me that question? How would I know?” I asked while staring suspiciously at her.What the hell is she trying to do? How did she figure out who I was? What type of game is she playing? I wondered.“If you don’t know then I’ll gladly tell you. His name is…I think I’ve forgotten who he was,” Alice said, wearing a wide grin on her face while staring at me.“Uhm, it saddens me that you both can’t become friends. Alice will be departing today. I’d pictured you both getting along really—”“Departing? Me? I would never leave this palace when I’ve just found a potential friend for myself. Why would I leave so suddenly after just finding out her name? That wouldn’t be very nice would it? I would like to stay in the palace from now on to know more about my dearest new friend, Amber. I hope that’s fine with you, Scott?” She asked Scott while staring at me, wearing an awkward smile. It was clear from her looks that she had other reasons why she wanted to stay in the
LOGAN’S POVAs early as when the sun had woken up, my escorts and I departed to the all beta pack to go and form an alliance. Forming an alliance with the last three packs I visited wasn’t so much of a big deal because I was granted permission to enter the palace and to sit for a meeting. Not having a stamped document like last time will surely cause us a lot of trouble.“Master, where are we visiting today?” Killian asked.“We will be visiting an all betas pack. That is where we’ll rawly seek for an alliance,” I said.“Rawly?” Killian asked with a puzzled look on his face.“As you can remember, we’ve been threatened and been held by the blades of the previous packs. And what had saved us? The stamped letter. This shows that the stamp letters for meeting purposes are more suitable for situations like this. And this time, we do not have one. So prepare yourselves to endure insults and whatnot,” I concluded as we continued to walk.My escorts and I journeyed for three and a half hours b
LOGAN’S POVHer cheeks became bright red. She was extremely flustered that she started to blush.“What are you doing?!” Laura’s adviser snapped angrily. “Why would you—Why would you do that?!”“Oh my, Alpha Logan,” Laura blushed uncontrollably.“Why are you so flustered?!” Her adviser yelled angrily. “You need to back up, Alpha Logan. Go and have a seat.”I obeyed her and sat down. Laura hasn’t stopped blushing and admiring her wrist which I kissed.“What’s your purpose for visiting the Zion pack?” Her adviser asked while staring suspiciously at me. She knows how dangerous I am. She must’ve heard several rumors about me which must come off as unpleasant.“As I had told the head guard at the gate, I’ll also tell you. I came here to propose to the Alpha of the Zion pack, Laura,” I said, wearing a wide grin on my face.Was that right? Did I say it right? This is so embarrassing. I’ve never done something like this in my life. I hope I don’t get caught and recognized as a phony. Her advis
LOGANS POVWe arrived very late in the night after our journey. After freshening up, I decided to visit the backyard for some fresh air. I couldn’t tag Gertrude along because he was tired and demanded to rest.At least I was able to obtain four packs which I am today, allied with. I’m moving pretty fast with my plan. I should resume with the next step of my plan. Which is forming a good relationship with the members of each pack and not the alpha. It is after the members of each pack prefer me to their Alpha, is when my plan will finally come to an end. I will make sure to dethrone each one of them, I thought.I stretched my hand towards the sky, trying to reach it. I couldn’t touch the sky because it was too far away. There was a question that I was asked which was still bothering me. Vladya’s henchman asked me what I would do after all my plans had succeeded. What my final goal was.I honestly don’t know. People say that they see themselves where and who they were supposed to be in
LOGAN’S POVI got up from my bed because someone was knocking on the door.“Who is it?” I asked with an angry tone.“It’s Luke, Master,” he said as he entered the room. “I must apologize for disturbing you so early in the morning but something is bothering me.”“You only apologized to him. What about me?” Gertrude barked.“You’re undeserving of my apologies, Gertrude!” Luke roared.“You disturbed us because something was bothering you?” Gertrude asked with a puzzled look on his face. “If you’re looking for tips on how to get laid, I’m your guy.”Luke immediately spat out his toothpick and Gertrude understood what it meant.“I will try to control my mouth from now on,” Gertrude said.“What is bothering you?!” I yelled from the bathroom.“It’s about Vladya’s right hand man. What do you think is their main purpose? I mean, they’ve been attacking only our business. Doesn’t that seem strange? Even when they have a way of sneaking into the palace unnoticed. They must have a different motive
LOGAN’S POVAs Luke had instructed, the three of us barged in without Naniel. We saw a few vampires. They amounted to eight but they weren’t regular Vampires. These vampires were physically larger than regular vampires. They all came out of their hiding place to surround us.“So it was a trap? I shouldn’t pretend like I didn’t know from the start,” I said while staring at the vampires.“I knew that you’ve figured it out but I didn’t want to foil your plans,” Gertrude said.“Both of you should shut up this instant!” A loud voice lamented from nowhere.“Who’s there?” Ghen asked as he drew out his dagger. Luke also drew out his dagger, ready for battle.“Oh C’mon, Alpha Logan. You could’ve come up with something more believable. Who sees fire and decides to stick it in his hands? I mean, it doesn’t make any sense. You knew it was a trap, yet you walked into it. Makk my e it make sense, Alpha Logan!” The voice yelled out loud.“Who are you?!” Luke asked with a stark look on his face.“Wh
LOGAN'S POVIt's been a week since Amber and I were joined by the mating bond in the mating ceremony.The preceding days have been nothing but blissful. Carrying Grandal everywhere with me, even to court meetings with the elders of the pack. It felt like I was trying to make up for the times that we were apart from each other.As for Amber, she glowed every day, blossoming like a flower. Every day, I set my eyes on her, I can't help but desire to take her to bed and make love to her.But then, I didn't mean to rush things. I had treated her badly in the past, sexually, and would want our sexual encounters henceforth to be better.It was a bright cool morning and I prepared for my meeting with the elders. We had a lot to deliberate on, and I wouldn't want to keep them waiting.I arrived at the pack's house, the sun slowly rising from its abode in the sky. I walked into the hall and the elders were already seated, their faces expectant.I exchanged pleasantries with them, as I took my s
LOGAN'S POVHaving my family in my arms felt like the best thing that has happened to me at that moment. I could not believe that after such a while, I was finally reunited with them.“Are you alright?” I inquired, disengaging from the hug to take a proper look at them.Amber looked shocked, like she had seen a ghost but nodded, “Yes, we are.”Quickly, I turned to my men. “A number of you should fetch the pot while the rest and I will proceed home with Scott, my mate and my son.”My men nodded and walked off to carry out the order while a number of them stayed back. “Come on, it's time to head home,” I rose to my feet and pulled Amber up. “Let me have him,” I said, gesturing to my son.Amber obliged and handed him to me and surprisingly, he didn't make a fuss but relaxed comfortably in my arms.Turning to my men, I ordered, “let's head home, our mission is completed.” They nodded and we filed out of the dungeon. We made our way outside Scott's pack house, the dead bodies of his men
LOGAN'S POVI had assembled my men on returning from the seer's home. I filled them in on what the seer revealed, and I also informed them about the ritual to be held.They were all supportive as they all wanted Scott defeated as much as I wanted. So in the preceding days, I made preparations for the ritual, making provision for all the necessary materials we needed. And so the D–day arrived. The seer led me and my men to a large, open field on the outskirts of the Red Fanged Pack's territory. The moon was full in the sky, casting a silver glow over us. My men stood in a circle around me, their eyes fixed on me.The seer stood at the center of the circle, her eyes closed, her hands raised to the moon. “The moon goddess demands a ritual to weaken Scott's hold on the sacred pot,” she declared, her voice reverberating across the field.I nodded, my heart pulsating with anticipation. I knew that this ritual was the key to rescuing my mate and son.The seer began to chant, her voice risi
LOGAN'S POVThat night, I couldn't sleep as I kept tossing on the bed, nightmares of Amber and Grandal sleeping in a dungeon plaguing my dream.I couldn't believe Scott could be that cruel to a little child. I was even more angry at Amber for running off to my enemy's territory.I was unable to sleep as I rose from bed in the wee hours of the morning to visit my study. I tried to attend to some paperwork to get my mind off the events of the previous day, but I couldn't.It was in my restless state that I fell asleep on my study chair. The knock on the door roused me from sleep.“Come in,” I answered, groggily sitting up.My advisor stepped in, his face bearing an urgent expression. “Good morning, Alpha. The seer has sent for you on the moon goddess’s order.”My eyes immediately lit up. “Is it about my mate and son?”“I doubt. You have to hear her call right away.”I nodded and rose from the chair as I made my way back to my chambers. I freshened up and got changed into something befit
SCOTT'S POVAfter sending out the letter to Logan, I instructed my men to get prepared because I was sure Logan would come for war.He was a man of pride who never said no challenges, and just like I predicted, he arrived with his men Two days after I sent out the letter.“Alpha Logan and his men are here, armed to the teeth.” My advisor came to inform me, in my study.I let out an amused laughter. “Just like I expected. The men should not panic because he and his men won't be able to penetrate.” I said with so much confidence.My advisor nodded and exited the study.After he left, I took my time before heading outside to see Logan and his men. I walked out of the study, a smirk plastered on my face. I made my way to the palace gate, where Logan and his men were waiting. As I approached, I could see the determination in their eyes, but I knew it was futile.“Logan, Logan, Logan,” I said, shaking my head. “You really thought you could take on me and my pack? You're no match for us.”
LOGAN'S POVSince our rescue, today was the day I was finally meeting with my men. The reason being that I wanted everyone to be fully recuperated for the tasks at hand.I intended to restore the pack to its previous state. Compensate every family that Noel had killed their loved one or loved ones or stolen from them.I also intended to compensate Jayde and Laura for the inhumane treatment meted out to them by Noel. I also handed back the Zion's pack back to Laura.Afterward, I want to begin my search for Amber and my son. But before that, I had to summon the moon goddess for her opinion.“You all are welcome,” I said to my men as they all assembled in the throne room, on my orders.“We have a lot to discuss, but first I want to specifically thank you all for sticking by me. It is only unfortunate that we lost one of us during that trying mind,” at the mention of that, their eyes turned misty.“Wherever he is, Killian will be happy to know that we got the pack back. For that, I want u
SCOTT'S POVI stormed out of Amber's room, my vision blinded by fury. I couldn't believe that the woman and her child I have been harboring and come to take as family are the mate and son of the man I detest with every single fiber of my being.Amber–who would have thought a woman as calm, conserved and innocent like her is capable of such deceit? More reasons why quiet females should be avoided at all cost.I arrived at my study, the walk from Amber's room doing nothing to alleviate how I was feeling. I felt used, betrayed and foolish.Lowering myself on my seat, I reminisced on the raid carried out by Logan and his men. My fury skyrocketed as I thought about the number of my soldiers and pack members that were lost that night.No matter how hard I tried to wave the painful thoughts, owing to my promise to Amber to keep her and Grandal safe, the images of that night still came surging back like an angry tide.My heart constricted painfully in my chest. Such an act was too difficult
LOGAN'S POVI have never felt satisfied and relieved like I felt when I delivered the blow to Noel's face.“You bastard!” I growled and charged towards him, aiming to hit him again, but I was restrained by the other Alphas.“You need to get a grip on yourself, Alpha. You need to recover first, he will be here to get the penalty of his deeds. You need detoxification as I can smell poison all over you.” Sir James said, pulling me backward.As if on cue, I felt a wave of dizziness and I staggered backwards.“Are you okay?” I heard different voices in the background as my head swoon. I tried to stay stable, but couldn't. I doubled up, and my legs gave way beneath me as I lost consciousness.That was all I recalled as I woke up to find myself on a bed. Groggily, I opened my eyes and was met by pairs of worried eyes staring down at me.“Thank God he is awake,” a voice said, and I tried to prop myself up on the bed but stopped as a banging headache overtook me.“Don't stress yourself, Logan.
NOEL'S POVI turned to the maiden and harshly ordered her to leave my chambers. Hurriedly, I slipped my manhood back into my trousers.Turning to Olivia, I asked. “Are the soldiers retaliating?”“They are, but they seemed outnumbered. These people mean business, and the arms that they have with them are ones that I have never seen before.” Olivia explained, her eyes misty with fear.“Go on, I'm coming after you.”Hesitantly, she stared at me before hurrying off.Confusion overtook me as I slipped into my fighting clothes, wondering who these Invaders were. And to worsen things, they attacked at night, a vulnerable time when everyone would be exhausted from their diverse daily activities.My confusion was replaced by fear. My soldiers are not prepared enough because no one was expecting an attack.“Cowards!” I cussed at the Invaders. They didn't even have the decency to warn me beforehand about their attack.I was even more scared because there was no way to reach the Giants that had
