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
LUKE’S POV“How did the search go?” Gertrude asked.“It was pointless. As you can see, we didn’t find Amber. I wonder where she is,” I said while stroking my chin in confusion. My soldiers and I decided to rest after searching for a day with the mindset that a pregnant woman in labor must’ve sat behind a tree to rest.To our surprise, we couldn’t find her. It was like she vanished or probably she’s been planning to run away for a long time; she had a destination.“Something’s still unclear to me,” I said as I entered the palace.“And what’s that?” Alpha Logan asked with a straight face.“The fact that we couldn’t find her. What happened to her? Where could she be? These are the types of weathering me,” I said with a disturbed look on my face.Alpha Logan noticed the distress that was laced round my face. It was his family that ran away but from the looks of it, it seemed to bother me more than him. Though we may wear a calm expression on his face, his dead worried about them.“Why are
LUKE’S POV“Don’t these brats know that it’s wrong to disturb someone eating? We will have to teach them proper manners!” I said as I clenched my fist tightly. “Why did you catch the arrow though? Are you trying to play the hero?”Alpha Logan scoffed. “Let me have this Luke. They’re so stupid. They didn’t properly study their opponent before attacking. How foolish of them. I can literally hear them reloading their bow. I can also hear their whispering murmurs!”“Don’t get full of yourself, Master. I can feel their presence,” I said with a wide grin.The expression on Gertrude’s face told me that he didn’t believe me.“Why are you smirking, Gertrude?!” I asked angrily.“Me? No I wasn’t! I just had a little doubt of what you said,” He sa
AMBER’S POVI woke up to a bright morning today. I had already eaten breakfast. The witch doctor had told me that I had slept for two days. I needed such sleep because of the way I partied two days ago. Alpha Scott had made the celebration extra special because of my delivery. He celebrated his victory and for my delivery so I had no choice but to party.“Where is Grandal?” I asked the witch doctor who was about to leave my room.“Oh, Amber! I asked my apprentice to bathe him. I’m pretty sure she’s done by now. Alpha Logan had told me yesterday that he’ll be sending a maiden before sunset to show you to your room. Please be ready before she gets her. Your clothes are in the second drawer to your right,” she said before leaving.“Thank…you…” she left before I appreciated it.I was so lazy that I took a nap.
