The mate dance part One

.

.

.

I never imagined that in this lifetime I would witness the RedSand pack buzzing with such activity. The preparation for the Mate Dance was treated as if the president of the country or the Alpha King himself was gracing our presence.

Alpha Samuel spared no expense to ensure that the Mate Dance Ceremony would go flawlessly. Pack workers scurried around in a frenzy, creating a chaotic scene. Fortunately, as Diana's appointed personal servant, I was spared the burden of working on the preparations for the grand event. Instead, I utilized whatever free time I had from attending to Diana's needs to plan my escape from this place.

Although Diana rarely assigned me tasks, I had to create them for myself to avoid arousing suspicion among the pack members. Diana was kind, but the rest of the pack was not, and I refused to let her generosity lead me to greater harm in the future—assuming I didn't succeed in escaping on the night of the event.

I struggled hard to push away thoughts of what might happen to me if I were caught. My brain screamed at me to stay put, but my heart yearned for freedom. I knew that if I were apprehended, I would be thrown back into the dungeon, and this time, the consequences would be even more severe. There would be more suffering and punishment, and perhaps this time, Sean would finally have his way with me. No amount of pleading from Diana to spare me would save me this time.

Was this a risk I was willing to take? Yes. Maybe in the past, I had endured torture and a life of slavery, but this time, if I were caught, I would choose freedom—even if it meant not being free from the pack but finding solace in the embrace of death, joining my parents in the heavenly abode.

I had already packed a small bag for my departure: two dresses, two pairs of shoes, a blouse, trousers, and some undergarments. Diana had gifted me some snacks days ago, which I had set aside for my escape. The problem was that I had no money, and once I ran out of food, I would have to rely on my hunting skills until I reached a human society where I could blend in and find employment. I knew it wouldn't be easy, and there would be hardships ahead, but anything would be better than staying here. Now, all I had to do was wait for the opportune moment to arise, and then I would make my escape.

Diana always made sure I was at arm's length, her attempt to protect me, which I was grateful for. If I was not doing chores around her house, I was by her side, standing meekly or trailing after her every movement.

Diana was given the task of ensuring that the preparations were proper and perfect, or rather, in this case, we could say that she was the event planner. It was strange watching Diana give orders and coordinate the work crew. It showed strength and courage that I wished I had at the moment. If I am able to escape, would the human people respect me just as the wolves in my pack respected Diana?

I watched silently in envy while taking notes, but there was no bitterness or resentfulness in my heart. I was jealous, but I was still proud of the woman she had become. Hopefully, this mate dance brings her mate to her, and she finally gets to be completely happy. I wished I would be there to see her belly round with her pups or even help her out in raising them, but I couldn't stay. Even the love Diana had for me would not change my mind. I have lost so much in the past three years, and I need to regain or at least have the chance to, rather than wallow in pity and eternal suffering in a pack that would never see my worth and would never treat me with respect.

If only the hands of time could change, I would go back and save my father from his madness, or better still, I would save my mother by any means possible. People say dwelling on the past means nothing, but when the past is all you have got at the moment, there is nothing left to do but dwell.

"Anna! Are you taking notes of the things that we would need to get?" Diana's voice snaps me out of my train of thoughts, and I nod in response. "That is good, Anna. I know you must be tired from having to follow me around. I never expected the preparation for the ceremony to take this much energy and time."

"I am fine, Diana," I assure her. She need not worry about my well-being. Following her around is much better than being stuck in the dungeon, better than being molested by Sean, better than being used and teased by Vera and every other pack member that fancies my pain. At least by Diana's side, I get to breathe fresh air and admire how beautiful my pack surroundings have grown to become over the years. By Diana's side, the pack members do not disturb me. Rather, they treat me like I don't even exist in the first place, and I am not complaining one bit. I just hope that they keep up the same energy on the day I execute my escape plans.

Diana spares me a sad glance. "Do you think you would be up for shopping?"

"Shopping?" I ask, confused.

"Yes, dear. I was thinking that we would go shopping for our dresses," she explains.

"Oh!" I respond weakly. Our dresses? Was Diana thinking of dressing me up for the event, an event I had no wish of attending or participating in? But Diana has no idea of my plans to run away, or else she would not have suggested that I buy a dress.

Diana caresses my arm lightly. "Honey, I know that you don't want a mate, but that doesn't mean you should not enjoy the party. And it has been a long time since you have done anything to enjoy yourself. Anna, you deserve to be happy, regardless of what others may think. You should be happy."

    The Mate dance part two...I smiled weakly as Diana's words touched me, like a mother comforting her child. Diana was truly motherly, and she would eventually be a good mother to her pups. It's funny how we were both the same age, but she seemed to have advanced psychologically over these three years. "Thank you," I said, tears glistening in my eyes, but I held them back. I would not cry anymore for my predicament. My freedom was here, and I would take it. "No need to thank me. You deserve more than I can offer, Anna," Diana cooed, her eyes shone with sincerity. **** Maybe choosing to shop with Diana was a wrong idea. I had imagined that tailing Diana around the pack would be tiring, but I stand to be corrected. Shopping with Diana was proving to be even more challenging. But as challenging as it was, it brought delight to my soul as I watched Diana giggle over every dress that caught her eye. "You have to try this one," that was the nth time Diana had said to me as she pushed

    A glitch in my story . . . The moment was finally here. I was extremely tense, but I was still doing a good job of hiding it from Diana, who still had not suspected a thing, even till now. I silently praised my perseverance. Diana was busy gushing about how perfect everything in the field where the mate dance was to be held looked, and truthfully, it was breathtaking. It looked like a wedding in the forest, except it was not a wedding but still a celebration of love when mates find each other. A part of me wished I could fully be part of the mating ceremony. I could put on that blue dress in complete happiness as I awaited my other half. Instead I feigned happiness while I was seated patiently, all dressed up in the beautiful blue dress, while Diana painted my face to what she called perfection. I was yet to see her final work on my face "Perfect!" Diana exclaimed as she finally stepped away, allowing me to look at myself in the mirror beside me. "So, what do you think?" she a

    A glitch in my story part two ... "Oh my goodness! Is that you, Louisiana?" Luna Tamara almost screamed. I was confused. Was she just noticing my presence? She made sure to ignore me when I served them in the dining halls. "Good evening, Luna Tamara," I calmly bowed. "Wow, I haven't seen you in ages. You have made yourself scarce around the pack after your father's death," she said, and I stared at her blankly, even more confused. Have I made myself scarce? Or has the pack made sure that I am always scarce by imprisoning me? I wanted to scream at her, but I couldn't. "I was ashamed of my father's sin," I replied, biting my lips so hard that they almost bled. "Your father's sins are not yours to bear," she replied, and I grew even more confused. Was she not aware of what I have been going through in the pack? "Enough of your pain, my dear. You should be happy now," she added, and my heart broke. "Enough, Tamara. Let the girl be," the Alpha finally stepped in, cutting short the

    Alpha Kaden's Torture part one . . . I feel myself falling, the world spinning before my eyes, and then I feel nothing. I succumb to the darkness, embracing it like a mother embraces her child, until I feel nothing. My head feels heavy as I try to open my eyes. The light from the light bulb shines brightly into my eyes, causing a sharp pain in the front of my head. It takes a few seconds for my eyes to adjust to the light, and when they do, it almost feels like they're going to pop out of their sockets. How did I end up back here? Why am I lying on my bed in Diana's house? Who brought me here? I calm myself down and try to piece everything together. My brain isn't working as fast as I would like, but I patiently wait for the pieces to form. I remember being by the river, where I had decided to take a rest for a few minutes before continuing my run. It was a big mistake on my part, one that I now realize. If I hadn't stopped, I might not have been caught by Alpha Kaden. Alpha K

    Alpha Kaden’s torture part two... "No!" I weakly cry out. By this time, my pants are already off. He roughly penetrates me with his fingers, causing me immense pain as he moves rapidly and violently. "Sean was right, you are tight, so beautiful," he says as he adds more fingers, while I scream. My screams must have become loud enough that he covers my mouth with his hand. He removes his hands from inside me and proceeds to remove his trousers, still holding me down so I can't escape. I see his genitals, and my eyes widen. I don't want this. I want death, but not this kind of pain before I die. I wanted to leave this world with my dignity intact, the only thing I've been able to keep all these years. "Please, Williams," I beg as tears stream down my face. Just as I feel his genitals at the entrance, the door suddenly opens, falling to the ground, and an angry, half-transformed wolf emerges, throwing William away from me. "How dare you?" Alpha Kaden growls, shaking violently. "Sh

    A beginning I had not hoped for . . . The ride felt incredibly slow and lengthy, and I wondered how far the Blood-sun pack actually was. The Blood-sun pack was the pack of the north, respected and feared for their numbers and strength. I had never been to any other pack apart from my home pack since the day I was born, and I never imagined I would. Even though there was a possibility of my mate belonging to another pack, I had always imagined I would be mated to a pack warrior if it had not been for William being my mate. I had hoped my pack warrior mate would choose to stay with me. Selfish, I know, but I was young and did not want to imagine a life away from my pack and my loved ones. Well... how life has changed. In fact, I was living without my pack. The loved ones I had once feared to depart from were the first to depart from me. I was slowly taking another step in the journey of my life. It was a new beginning, though not the beginning I had hoped for. I had to see it thro

  • Alpha’s Kaden Second mate   The Change

    The Change . . . James led me to a room in the pack house, and when we entered, he kindly took the time to explain everything I needed to know about my stay there. He excused himself gently, but I couldn't help but notice the look of pity on his face as he closed the bedroom door. The sound of the door closing was the final blow, and the tears I had been holding back for so long finally descended. I collapsed on the floor of the room, hugging myself as I cried, not caring if anyone heard me as they passed by my door. Sleep eluded me, no matter how many times I tried to force myself into it. The bed was comfortable, even soft. The room itself was simple and welcoming. None of these factors were the cause of my sleeplessness. I was restless and anxious. My wolf was stirring inside of me, eager to come out, but I was afraid. I feared the pain that would accompany the transformation. It would be like the first time all over again. How was I going to deal with this? My father had b

    The Silence part one . . . Nothingness has several definitions, one, "it was the state or condition of being nothing; nonexistence"· Two, "it is the absence of consciousness or life"· Three, "it is complete insignificance or worthlessness". I have seen and felt all three all at once since the past three years but there was another definition that I have not yet felt, nothingness as an egoless state of being in which one fully realizes one's own small part in the cosmos. "I had yet to discover the purpose of my entire existence in this world. Or maybe I had. Was my purpose in this world to suffer? To mourn and never be happy? Then I was truly nothing. The beeping sound ringing in my ears brought me back to the light. I carefully opened my eyes to get accustomed to the intensity of light in the room. I could hear voices around me, but I was yet to discern which belonged to whom. "What is wrong with her?" This was Kaden's voice. I was surprised that his voice sounded worried. Was

I was never used to her display of respect and even till now I still wasn't, but Fia idolized me, she was an orphan I had picked up at age five in the woods almost eighteen years ago , her parents had been slaughtered by rogues on unclaimed territory, they were most likely traveling somewhere or escaping from something or somewhere but I could never know, it was not in my fate to know— yet she appeared slightly older than I am, the curse of youthfulness glaring at me in the face. "The moon goddess prophecy was right after all, when is she ever wrong" I smiled at my handmaiden but deep down I felt slightly conceited, I served the moon goddess but I had conflicted feelings about her, of why she had deemed my kind unworthy of ever getting a mate. "When does he plan on holding the ceremony?" I asked "In thre

    How it all ends . . . You found me. I mind link Kaden. You helped, your dream helped us locate you. He responded back. I was thankful for that; Williams would finally be stopped. I watched Kaden in his wolf form fighting off the rabid wolves. Something was different. It was similar to when we encountered the rabid wolves on the road. Kaden seemed to know how to defeat these corrupted creatures. Maybe they had found a way. I wanted to join the fight, but I knew it would put Kaden at a disadvantage. I was still weak, and these rabid wolves were stronger than the regular ones. More of the rabid wolves fell to the ground, meeting their deaths. I also saw James, who wasn't in his wolf form but fought well. Williams was nowhere to be seen, and I wondered if he had managed to escape and flee for his life. However, I hoped that wasn't the case. If Williams left, it meant he would return stronger, and the method Kaden had discovered to defeat him might be rendered useless. Soon, al

    The Alpha Queen . . . "Williams is Neal's son," I gasped as Tamara concluded her story. Tamara gritted her teeth before confirming my suspicions, "Yes, he is." "Does he know?" I asked curiously. Maybe I was trying to find a reason why Williams had turned out like this. She laughed, "Why do you think he is doing all this?" "What?" I was confused. "You are wrong, Tamara. You caused all this," a strong feminine voice came from the shadows. "Do you think I don't know that, mother?" Tamara snapped. Mother! Mother! My mind screamed. I thought I was alone in the dungeons. If this is Tamara's mother, then this is the Alpha Queen, the missing queen. What was she doing here? Was Williams responsible for abducting his grandmother, the queen? Was he also responsible for killing the king? "I knew your wild nature would yield bad results. Look at yourself, Tamara. You have birthed a monster, a child that has done this to his own grandmother, a son that kills his grandfather, a son that

"The mate dance is in three weeks, you will finally get to meet your mate Tamara" Sahara said, looking at her little sister "This whole thing is just weird to me, what if I do not want what the moon goddess has chosen for me" Tamara whined. She has never believed in the moon goddess crazy idea of forcing two strangers together. "The moon goddess makes no mistake" Sahara said. "Then how come you are yet to find your mate. Have you thought of the possibility that your mate might not even exist, maybe he is dead, does that mean you will spend your whole life alone and wondering why you could not get happiness" Tamara reasoned with feistiness in her words. "Tamara—you really should not think that way. Look Reina is happy with her mate" Sahara reasoned as well, her little sister was too wild and she feared that her wild nature might cause harm to her. "Reina looks delusional to me. Don't worry, I will be ready for the mat

    The True Sinner . . . "What is the meaning of this Williams?" I ask in confusion, holding onto the bars of the dungeons, I was frightened and confused at Williams behavior, what does he stand to gain by hurting me like this?. Williams had a smirk on his face, it lasted for more seconds than it should have if he was acting normal but he wasn't, none of this was normal, he was giving this sadistic look, the look of a psychopath, was Williams always this evil?, the Williams I had known and grown up with was good, he was nice, though he loved to keep to himself, he was still good, everyone in the pack cherished him for his composure and maturity and now it is sad to say that they were all wrong. "What happened to you?, why are you acting this way?" I ask trying to decipher his thoughts and actions but I knew deep down it was futile, Williams looked her gone, even in this dim light, I could see the evil in his eyes. He turns his smirk to a chuckle before he said "I am doing this

    Rabid wolves . . . "Alpha Kaden, when all the preparation are made, you will be summoned for the crowning" Sanders informed my mate, the other councilman gathered behind Sanders. We were currently about to leave the palace. I take a final look at the lovely place but my heart is not saddened that I did not get to properly explore the place, because I know Kaden and I would be back soon. Kaden and the councilman Sanders exchanged a few words, then Sanders bow slightly at us and the other councilmen did the same thing, Kaden acknowledged the gesture with a nod while I gave a soft smile. The palace was finally out of view before I felt like everything that had occurred in the last three days was nothing but a dream and I had just woken up. It was a good distraction from everything, now I was going back to the pack, there was still someone after my life, Ciara was still dead and we had no idea whatsoever who was behind all of it and Tamara might be plotting something, so a war

    Two Days and three nights Part Two . . . As I stood at the edge of the vast forest clearing, my senses were overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the unfamiliar Alpha King burial ceremony. The air was thick with an aura of solemnity and reverence, as if the very trees whispered secrets of ancient rituals. Beside me stood Kaden, my mate and now the heir to the werewolf throne. His presence offered a reassuring anchor amidst the sea of unfamiliar faces, his hand clasping mine tightly, providing both strength and solace. We had traveled from our own pack for a meeting to deliberate on the King's death and the Queen's disappearance but here we are now paying our respects to the fallen werewolf king whose murderer was still unknown , though he was a monarch I had never met but he was one whose legacy loomed large in the hearts of his subjects and Kaden's as well , this king was his uncle after all, and this King reign was a one without war, that was something to really be proud of.

I sat up immediately noticing that Kaden was not by my side, I was about to call out to him when he stepped out of the bathroom, a towel wrapped around his waist and another he used to dry off his presently washed hair. "You are awake, I wanted you to sleep in more" his husky voice reaches my ears sending excitement all around my body. The floral scent of the hair shampoo mixed with his woody scent causing more excitement that I can't even find the perfect words to describe how my body was feeling even if I tried. I realized that this is the first time I am seeing him partially naked in the daytime, with all the glory of the sun illuminating into his skin and on his toned abs and arms, I was shamelessly ogling at him, I knew that and he definitely knew as well, evidence was that a mischievous smirk had sprea

Tamara head immediately snapped in her direction at her sister's statement, she was definitely not expecting her sister to speak up, and at least against her. "This has nothing to do with you, you have no son!" Luna Tamara spat as if to torture her if what she lacked. A smile spread across Sahara face, surprising me, and maybe everyone else in the room. "You are mistaken" she said proudly "W-what?" Tamara stuttered, my eyes widened in shock, so did Kaden, no one was expecting that for sure.
