"I left it back in your room princess," Bella quickly confirmed when Lilith gasped in shock. Lilith heaved deeply holding her chest as a "phew" escaped her lips."I thought I lost it Bella" She said, still trying to calm her nerves."It did look really special, how did you get it princess," Bella asked following sideways with Lilith."I told you to call me Lilith, not princess" Lilith replied, staring at Bella whose lips formed an "Ohh" and her eyes looked away from Lilith's."My mother gave it to me, she says it's really special and it'll protect me from danger" Lilith started.Bella whose head went down raised it back when Lilith continued, "but" Lilith paused again and turned to look at Bella. She smiled at her, "I don't believe her" "Really?" Bella asked, leaving a shocked expression on her face."It's almost as good as useless, but I only keep it because it's from my mother and it seemed special to her when she had it" Lilith replied.Bella heaved, "It might actually be somethin
Dargak walked in as soon as the long arm of the clock touch 12 and the short arm touched 10. It was exactly 10pm Dargak walked in and went towards the Alpha's throne room.Sleep was always far away from the Alpha, and so he only found solace in taking out scrolls and looking at the wall, sometimes a little training with Dargak will do just the trick of keeping his mind busy from thinking about what happened to his people years ago."How is the training ground Dargak?" Lucien asked, with an expressionless face. One that Dargak was already so used to."Level 3 should be done in no time Alpha. I have been carried away and have only disappointed you, forgive me" Dargak replied, lowering his hands, while the tip of his sword touched the floor.Lucien only nodded, without saying a word for some seconds, "You need to stay here Dargak, for the time being, you'll be needed here" Dargak couldn't question the Alpha further as to why he wanted him to stay back, but he was sure Lucien needed him
An Hour Before Midnight..Bella gasped in shock as her eyes opened widely. She held her stomach in pain trying to lift herself from the soil. It was normally dangerous at midnights or almost midnight so Bella couldn't head back to the palace.Her head hurt so much and she held it in pain. "Hurry back to the palace and tell the Alpha what happened" Lilith voice suddenly echoed in the forest causing Bella more pain.She groaned more, using her hand to hold her head really tight. When it was so obvious she could walk further, she fell down and tried relaxing first. It wasn't so safe to continue her journey back as it was really late and being attacked by rogues wasn't an option either.Bella sat down on the floor resting her head and back on a big tree. The night crickets chirped and the fireflies danced round the grasses where she was.A tear escaped her eyes as she watched them. She was going to be hell in a lot of trouble when she returns back to the palace, but even at that, she hope
Bella didn't stop running, she continued till she was getting closer to the palace. Her legs were totally bruised, but she didn't stop for even a second, afraid it might end up being too late if she stopped even for a second to catch her breath.She finally got to the palace, and ran in. She halted as everywhere looked completely empty. Not a single soul was walking around. Ignoring the condition of the Alpha's home, she ran to find Madam Baski.As she found the older woman close to the garden where she and Lilith had stayed before going out, she fell to the floor weak and tired."Mother" Her voice was faint and it sounded almost like a whisper but Baski heard it loud and clear.Terrified, Baski ran up to her and pulled her into a tight hug but instead Bella started a whole new fresh tears."The princess is in danger, Lilith she was taken" Baski nodded her head, while slowly patting her back, "I know dear, I know" "She'll be back safely, the Alpha has gone to bring her back" Baski
Lilith could only chuckle when Remeta said such., "Then take me back." She smiled and stood up."You must get cleaned up first princess" Lilith nodded and grabbed a small stool. She sat on it while Remeta went on her knees close to her. She squeezed the towel to extract the water soaked in it a little then took Lilith's hands.Lilith shut her eyes as the warm towel touched her body, when Remeta was done with her legs and hands, she opened them back to stare at the young lady.Gosh, she missed this life so much. Where she was being treated like a princess she is or maybe was."Is he nuts?" Lilith mused. The same man that had laid his hands on her last night, and treated her like a slave he had seen her been back then."Can I know your name?" Lilith asked Remeta who continued cleaning her body."Remeta my princess" "Remeta, can I meet with the Alpha?" "I can arrange for that princess, if you wish to immediately"Lilith nodded her head, "I do, thank you"Remeta stood up and walked tow
Lucien shifted, with a mighty growl that sent the branches of trees shaking. His eyes were red, and his fangs sharp to tear his enemies into pieces while using his claws to Pierce into their heart and skin.He took off, running after each one of them fiercely. As he landed on the soil, the ground shook at his mighty weight, his power and his bearing.With his sharp fangs, he grabbed one and brought him out from his hiding tree rolling his head and tearing his to pieces as the wolf growled in pain.Soon, most of them were running off, retreating and taking different directions, but one thing Lucien was sure about was that some of his men were dead. He couldn't look back to count them, but on their blood, he was going to tear apart the wolf who began this.As he remained at the front line, the rest marched forward behind him all ready to attack whenever he gave the command.***"What do you mean the one I love" Lilith demanded, looking at him with confusion.He smiled back, and placed h
The blade went through her stomach, making Lilith fall to the ground in pain while holding the part where the blade had struck.Rohit released his claws and placed it on her neck, "One more step and she'll be gone for good" He threatened.He hadn't intended to stab her, but that was the only way he could save himself. He was quick enough to site Dargak and some other warriors waiting patiently, and he was really sure they were all awaiting Alpha Lucien's command. Their plan had failed immediately he sighted them, so he had to come up with any other quick plan that wouldn't cost him his life.Lucien's eyes turned red as he watched Lilith gush out blood from her stomach where she had been stabbed. He was always an inpatient wolf, but this time, he had to be patient and use his head to save his mate."Give them the command to step out now" Rohit Instructed, his voice unstable as fear was an entity in his eyes, his voice and his tone.Lucien stretched his neck a little, as all the veins i
Lucien opened his eyes when he heard the painful whimpering of Lilith. He looked down towards where she was asleep and watched as she shook her body in her sleep. Her eyes were still closed but her hands and body were moving. He could understand she was having a bad dream because he had been there so many times he'd lost count. Still watching her, he stood up from his bed and walked toward her. "HEY, Lilith, it's only a dream" He whispering, but she didn't stop shaking. He stood up and walked to the table close to his bed. He took a glass and poured water into it from the jug. He walked toward her again and then raised her head a little bit. "Open your eyes Lilith, and drink just a little " Her forehead was burning, and her hands were still shaking. Lilith opened her eyes slowly when he instructed her to do so again. He brought the glass of water closer, but she refused to open up. "Is it poisoned?" She asked He looked for her for a second, "If I wanted to have you killed, I
As soon as he broke the door opened, he walked in to meet the lifeless body of the one he was desperately looking for.She was gone, but he felt the energy of someone so powerful. Too bad he could not follow the flowery scent of the child as well.That instant, he snapped his fingers together and their bodies immediately caught flames.Just like that, Red walked out of the building. He would wait, and one day find Lilith's little angel.ONE YEAR LATER…"Nathan seems to be just like his father, the Alpha." Elsa said, carrying her little boy in her hands.Just then, a servant walked in carrying Asher in her hands."My queen, he seems to can't stop crying." She said worriedly."He misses Mommy. Bring him over here." Elsa said, and then took Asher who was more like her into her arms.She had given birth to twins for Red who later became the strongest Alpha months ago, and was now living the life she thought she always deserved.To Elsa, it felt like even the wicked do go scott free, but s
Lilith felt a very sharp pain pierce through her chest, and immediately she woke up before a heart wrenching scream was torn from her lips.She held her chest, squeezing it tight, and her second hand was on her stomach. Her loud scream woke everyone up immediately, and they all rushed towards her most especially Bella who got to her first."Princess." Bella called being more worried, while also trying to calm Lilith down."He's gone. He's gone." Lilith didn't stop mentioning this word, but only Baski understood her words, and what she was actually trying to say.Baski shut her eyes, and let her tears fall freely, and so did Lilith. She couldn't believe he was actually gone even when the moon goddess had shown her so earlier.Lilith wouldn't stop shaking, and it was beginning to scare Bella and Dargak."Do something mother." She said,Just immediately, Lilith's eyes turned golden Yellow, and when Bella touched her body, it was burning hot. She took her hands away, stepping backwards fr
Elsa didn't sleep. She was still fully awake expecting Red's presence any moment as she sat on her bed. Her legs were shaking in fear, but nevertheless, she was really trying to control her fear.As soon as the door was forcefully pushed open, her heart jerked a little, but she shut her eyes to control and hide her fear."Where's she?" She heard his cold voice immediately he stepped in,She remained seated, trying hard not to let his hoarse voice intimidate him."What are you talking about?" She asked, trying as much as possible not to think about anything, or let her fear control her mind for he could read mind.He waited, trying to read her mind, and smell her fear, but there was nothing. He really wanted to blame someone because of his anger, but her innocence was actually making him believe she really wasn't the one.Deciding to try again, he started taking steps closer to her, but she was fast enough to realize what he wanted to do.She remained calm, hoping the silent intimidati
Bella found herself out of the long dark tunnel after a long walk of about 20 minutes. She came out with dusty hair, clothes, and body.Recalling Elsa's words, she started running. The long road to the Silver noon pack wasn't clear, as the paths she took at every turn seemed to be tricky, but that didn't stop her from walking.Heading towards an unknown destination, she fell down after stepping on a thorny dried leaf. A light wince escaped her lips, and when she thought about the Alfanso pack, she wondered if her absence would have been noticed by Red already.Dusting the pain off, she continued, taking every paths that her mind gave the green light. An hour later, Bella thought she wouldn't make it back, or that she would be lost forever until she heard a familiar voice.Hiding just to be certain, she could hear the sounds of horses tapping their feet on the soil.That manly, familiar and heartwarming voice came again, and it immediately dawned on Bella that she had guessed right.It
Morning…Alfanso pack…Elsa sat beside her father, while Red stood at the entrance of the throne room awaiting the alpha's next words.When Alpha Jagger saw a slight reason in what he said before, he cleared his throat."Good. It's good we teach the spoiled brat how to behave." He said.Elsa immediately smiled when she heard her father speak, and when her contact met with that of Red, it was immediately replaced with a deep frown.Red on the other hand couldn't be happier, he lowered his head in respect before speaking,"I'll go get the warriors ready for battle Alpha." He said, and when alpha Jagger nodded, walked away.Elsa watched him walk away, but before he finally exited the door, she called the attention of her father."Excuse me father." She said, rising up on her feet. Once he nodded, she walked out and hurried to go meet Red."What are you thinking?" Elsa asked, walking side by side with him."Nothing." He replied, with a hoarse voice.She nodded her head, but wasn't willing
"Kill her." He heard her voice, mixed with jealousy, and hatred. Then, he looked up at her, and gave her a dreadful look. "Touch even a strand of her hair, and I won't fail to have you killed immediately." He threatened. His cold words made her take steps backwards, then she bit her lower lips as she stared at Bella. "Come in." She said, and then started walking back into the palace. Red carried Bella in his arms in a bridal style and then trailed behind Elsa. Once they got into a room, they halted. "She can stay here. But, don't expect me to be nice." She said, with a frown, and then immediately walked out of the room shutting the door with force as she exited. At the entrance of the door, Elsa stood, letting the tears in her eyes fall freely. To her, it felt like it was literally the first time she was crying over a man. The door opened, and Red stepped out of the room to meet her. She immediately wiped clean the tears on her face and turn to walk away but he held her back.
Lilith constantly kept pacing around the room for hours, and every second she would look through the window. Disappointment, a heavy sigh would escape her lips before sitting back on the bed.This continued happening till she couldn't take it anymore. She was more than worried about Bella who went out of the room early morning to go pick some flowers.Lilith had wanted to go look for her earlier, but she couldn't leave the room, as it would mean disobeying the alpha and having Bella punished.She wore fluffy slippers and walked out of the room, covering herself with a cloak.It was around evening, but Lilith thought of going to Baski's quarter first.When she arrived, she rasped a knock at the door, and a minute later, the door opened revealing Baski with tired and swollen eyes.Lilith walked in immediately, looking around for any trace of Bella, but she was again disappointed."Did you set eyes on Bella today?" She asked, turning back to stare at Baski."No child. She should be with
Dargak immediately rushed towards the training field, and when he sighted the Alpha, he rushed to him."Alpha." He called."Speak Dargak." Lucien replied, watching his warriors effortlessly train in their best ways.The shadow pack has announced war with us, and for no good reason. Alpha Damon says it's as a result of a long term grudge.Lucien scoffed, "Some guts he has now." And said, still leaving his hands behind his back."When the time comes, you'll escort princess Lilith, Baski and Bella out of the palace and to a safer place." Lucien commanded.Dargak fell on his knees once he heard that. "I wish for no other thing that to fight side by side with you Alpha." He replied."This is a command, Dargak." Lucien replied immediately, and then walked away towards another corner of the room.It was obviously the first time he would go to a war without Dargak by his side, but he wanted him safe and sound, especially to be there for his child as a strong man if anything were to happen to
"Revolt against the Alpha." Came Elsa's voice when she was being asked what to do by an elder.They had all gathered late that night.During this conversation, Red stepped in the next minute."And he'll be your new Alpha." They all cocked their heads to stare at the direction she had pointed to them.Red stepped out of them dark, making his figure visible to them.A loud gasp escaped their lips when they all saw him. "A lowly beta?" Two questioned at the same time.Red remained still. He wasn't angered by their words because they knew absolutely nothing about him."He's not that weakling anymore." Elsa said."He's of low blood, and absolutely not royalty." An elder said.Red tightened his fist, trying so hard to control his anger, but the moment he heard another word, he rushed towards the spot, and grabbed him by the neck."Don't you dare call me a weakling." He yelled, angrily turning his eyes green.Fear immediately became evident in their eyes, and each and every one took a step
