AMBER’S POV“Argh!” I cried as I tried to bear the pain. The pain had become unbearable for me. I cried on the way to the Rage beast pack.“You’ll be alright, madam,” a soldier said.“Thank you. Is the palace still farther away?” I asked impatiently.“Yes, a little bit farther. Why don’t we kill time? You could tell us about where you’re from. I’m sure you don’t mind, right?” He asked.“No no, I don’t mind,” I said with a faint grin on my face.I’ll have to cook up a story I can use to convince them that I’m actually not an enemy or else they won’t hesitate to behead me and kill my child, I thought.“Judging from the fact that you’re an alpha, this is totally strange. A pregnant alpha wandering all by herself,” the second soldier added. With what he said, I was able to cook up a perfect story that they won't have objections to.“You see, I’m an alpha and princess to a small pack. An unpopular pack. You won’t happen to know any claw pack, will you?” I asked, hoping they wouldn't know.
LOGAN’S POV“What did you say you had to stay back to do?” Gertrude asked.“To summon the moon goddess,” I said. I saw a shattered blade on the ground. The blade was probably Scott’s. I picked it up and inserted it into my pocket.“Summon the moon goddess? You must be joking. Aren’t you going to tell me what you really want to do?” Gertrude insisted.“I’ll repeat myself for the last time. I’m going to summon the moon goddess.”I walked into an idle room. I looked around for a while. The room seemed like a good spot. It was also spacious enough for me to perform the summoning spell.“What are we doing here? Is this where you intend to summon the so-called moon goddess?” Gertrude asked with an uninterested tone.“If you have nothing good to say, I suggest that you keep your mouth shut,” I said plainly.“Forgive me, forgive me. So how are you going to summon her?” Gertrude asked.“Firstly, we have to find a spacious and quiet area such as this room. Secondly, I’ll have to use my blood,”
AMBER’S POVI heard a loud noise. It was like a crowd was cheering. The noise becomes louder.“What was that?” I asked the witch doctor.“Please wait here, I’ll go check,” she said as she exited the room.I held little Grandal in my arms. He looked exactly like his father, and it was that resemblance that feared me the most. If I were to agree on whose behavior he should inherit, I would agree for him to inherit his father’s behavior. Alpha Logan knows nothing about emotions. His points and views differ from that of a regular person. Having no emotional feelings, he makes decisions based on rules and regulations. It made me glad that I was able to change his views concerning peace. I looked at my son and how peaceful he was sleeping.The noises from outside the room became louder. I could only think about what was going on outside. The witch doctor that left to go check out what it was hasn’t returned. She left an hour ago.Just as I was talking about her, she entered into the room wi
LOGAN’S POV“And what does that mean?” I asked with a riddled look on my face.Gertrude turned his head round, looking round the palace. “Alpha Logan?”“Yes?” I answered.“Tell me about your childhood,” he said with a serious look on his face.I glanced at him before looking back at the trees. The rustling of the trees had started to become calmer than before. It was almost dawn now and it was just now I remembered I hadn’t slept for three days.“Why are you suddenly asking about my childhood?” I asked while staring at him.“Curiosity,” he said.“Curiously?”“Yes. You want to figure out the meaning of that riddle, don’t you?” He asked.“Of course I want to,” I determinedly replied.“Then provide answers to my questions no matter how weird you find them.”“Telling you about my childhood would help with the riddle?” I asked impatiently.“Yes,” he plainly answered.“Ok. As rumor says, I was—”“No, that wasn’t the answer I wanted. I don’t want answers that came out of the mouth of curious
LOGAN’S POVGertrude sighed heavily before speaking. “The reason why you cried?”“Yes. The confident smirk on your face tells me that you know the reason why I cried,” I said while staring at him. Waiting for an answer.“You’re the only one who has the answer to that question, Logan. So Logan, what’s the answer to that question?” He asked, also waiting for an answer.I glared daggers at him.“What the hell do you mean?” My bass voice echoed. “You’re beginning to sound a lot like the moon goddess. How would I know the answer to my question and I still insist on asking you?”“It’s simply because you can’t accept that answer. That answer is something you don’t want to be subjected to and that’s why you refuse to agree to it,” he said while wearing a disturbing smirk on his face. “You’re staring at me like you don’t understand yet you do.”He talked about how I knew the answers to my questions but I refused to answer them. At the moment, my question wasn’t as important. My current problem
AMBER’S POV“Are you joking?” I asked impatiently.He replied with ease. “No, I’m not. I’m dead serious.”“Thank you so much, Alpha Scott. I don’t even know where I am going to go after being discharged. I have no one but my child. Thank you for going through the trouble saving me from those thugs yesterday and thank you for giving me a place to stay. You’re really king,” I said as tears started to build up in my eyes.“Yesterday? It was three days ago,” Scott said as he giggled lightly.“Three days ago? Which means that…”“You’ve been asleep for three days. Anyways, you should get some rest, Amber. You’ll need enough strength to feed a baby this big,” he said. He glanced at Grandal before he turned around to leave.“Congratulations, alpha Scott,” I said. He stopped after hearing my compliment.“You’ve also heard of my accomplishments?” He asked.“Of course, I have. Everyone in the palace has been jumping for joy ever since you returned from your mission. I asked the witch doctor and
HANNAH’S POVThe raid had already come to an end. The Rage beast pack had retreated and I was glad. Though they had made a mess of the palace, the mess wasn’t something that was impossible to take care of. Three days ago, that night had turned out to become a dreadful night for the pack and Alpha Logan. It was one problem after the other. Amber ran away from the palace. While in search of her, the palace got attacked. A new question had been on my mind after that night. The question is, why? Almost all the soldiers in the pack had left a few hours ago in search of Amber. I’ve already prayed to the moon goddess that they find her soonest. It was almost sunrise.I entered Amber's room. I moved through the room with my fingers touching whatever I passed. I explored the room like it was my first time in it. I got tired and sat on the bed. I was exhausted from crying for three days. I haven’t had anything to eat or drink for so long and it affected me. I was busy worrying about the well-be
HANNAH’S POV“What are you doing here all alone, Hannah?” Louis asked as she made her way into the kitchen. She noticed that I made a glass of grape juice so she couldn’t contain her excitement.“Are you having this refreshing drink all alone?!” She snatched the glass off the counter and drank it all. Her face immediately became pale.“Is there something wrong?” I asked, knowing what was wrong. The juice had no taste but it wasn’t that bad.“What’s this?!” She screamed as she started to rinse her tongue with the running tap.She cried bitterly as she washed her tongue.“This isn’t coming off,” she cried.I stood there watching the never ending drama of tongue scrubbing. I was also wondering why she was overreacting. The juice wasn’t tasting so bad.“What’s wrong?” I asked with a riddles look on my face.“Are you really asking me that question with such a puzzled look? Haven’t you tasted this atrocity?” She barked.“Atrocity? Such bad words for a juice that only lost its taste. You’re
