ALPHA AXEL'S POV.I went in immediately as Daniel led the way to Brandon. I was in a complete state of panic, different questions flooded through my mind. Spasms of fear crossed my face and I swallowed hard.I had been anticipatingly waiting for Brandon to come, not because I didn't believe what Alpha Cole said but because I needed to see it for myself to fully believe. The palace was turned into turmoil upon the arrival of Brandon. I couldn't wait to see him.People whispered among themselves as I passed them, they glared at me, their faces etched with shock as I walked past but then I ignored their reaction.Daniel halted at the door and turned back, his face etched with shock as he gestured to me to turn back. Slowly I turned back and my mouth fell open. The whole palace was behind me, leading them to angry elders who approached us.“Is he truly alive?” one of the elders spat as he glared at me.“It seems like that's the only possible explanation” I nodded, I wasn't in any mood to
AUTHOR'S POV.Davina drove the twins home, having a proper farewell to both Felicity and the twins, Davina quickly drove home. Her home was an hour's drive from Felicity's home, increasing her speed she got home within forty minutes to meet Lucien, who stood outside waiting impatiently for her.“Where are you coming from, Davina?” Lucien asked Davina as she got out of the car, his brows furrowed in curiosity.“Please Dad, I'm so tired of this discussion” Davina frowned as she headed inside the house.“Were you with Rachel?” Lucien asked as he walked towards Davina. “I told you not to associate with her again”. He said, his voice laced with anger.“Rachel has nothing to do with this” she defended. “Don’t bring her up in all our arguments, she is not the demon in our story” Davina defended and angrily walked in.“Davina wait” Lucien called as he ran after her. “I am sorry for bringing her up, I was just worried about you” he pleaded as he walked behind her.“Can we talk about this tomor
RACHEL'S POV.The next day, I sat down anxiously on my bed as I clutched my baby bump, fear etched on my face. I had called a meeting with my family except Lucien, following the witches visit. Alpha Axel and Daniel were busy with the elders after the arrival of Brandon, so I had to be the one to handle the witch's case. The last thing we wanted was for the witches to declare war on our pack.“My lady” a servant called as she walked in, “Your mother is here to see you,” she said bowing.“Bring her in!” I commanded, and the servant left, immediately my mother walked in, trailing behind her were Davina and the twins.“Mum” I called as I ran to hug her, “I am sorry I called for your presence not long after you left the palace” I apologized.“Nonsense, I'll always be there for you and you know it,” My mother said as she gave me a reassuring smile.I looked at Davina and the twins who gave me a reassuring nod, Davina moved closer to hug me tightly. “Whatever you do, don't mention our yester
RACHEL'S POV.I lay down on my bed as I tossed from left to right, Alpha Axel had left the palace to attend to important matters. The moonlight shone casting eerie shadows, sleep distant from my face, my mind clouded with different thoughts of the recent events that have just happened. Davina's revelations of meeting Arya in the clinic and how she defended me and Davina against Kora and Jane, still haunted me. “Athena would never have done that” I shook my head. “What is her game plan this time?” I muttered.I was filled with fear as I fought a rising panic, a nameless dread engulfed me. The witches declared war, Athena was now in the palace and above all the black witch had visited our coven and had succeeded in convincing half of the coven members.“I need to get fresh air” I muttered, as I got up from my bed, wearing my nightgown. I walked out of the room. The hallways were silent as no single life was seen or heard, even the rickets were too afraid to make a single noise.I slowl
AUTHOR'S POV.“Athena” Rachel said, her mouth fell open in shock. “It can't be,” she muttered, covering her mouth, fear fluttering in her stomach. Athena looked round, as though she knew someone was trailing her. She walked towards Rachel's direction. Fear engulfed Rachel as she covered her mouth, suppressing her urge to scream.“Hey, who's there?” A voice shouted coming closer, Athena halted and turned back in silence, running in the opposite direction. “Who's there?” The sentinel asked as he stood in front of Rachel, his face etched with curiosity as Rachel stared blankly at the air, her face contorted with fear.“My lady” he bowed immediately, realizing it was Rachel, “Are you okay?” He asked as he crouched closer to her.“Athena…Athena” Rachel muttered as she grabbed his hands. “Athena,” she said, her eyes widening in fear.“Ath…” The sentinel paused as his eyes widened in alarm. “Athena” he bolted out. “She is in the palace, Athena is the palace,” Rachel said, her voice mixed
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.The news of Athena's visit spread throughout the palace. I had to leave an important meeting to rush to the palace. I couldn't believe Athena dared to try another attack on Rachel.“Gather everyone here, how could Athena enter the palace without anyone noticing” I shouted as I walked into the palace. “I have looked into it, Athena might have been able to enter through the use of dark magic, the sentinels never left their posts, they are quite as shocked as we are” Daniel defended as he walked towards me.“Where is Rachel?” I asked, my voice edged with concern.“The sentinels can't find her, but according to one of the sentinels, he said Rachel went to hide in a place that only you have access to”, my beta Daniel explained calmly.Immediately I ran to my library, flinging the door open as I walked in. “Rachel”, I called. “Rachel, where are you?” I shouted, but there was no response. Daniel walked in, shutting the door behind him.“Let's check behind the bookshelves”
RACHEL'S POV.I sat down and I bit my fingers anxiously, my face contorted with fear as I patiently waited for Davina. Memories of yesterday flooded back into my mind, I could not believe Alpha Cole was working with Athena.“This can't be happening”. I shook my head. I trembled inside as I was in a complete state of panic.“Rachel” Davina called as she walked into my room. “Are you okay?” She asked, her voice laced with fear as she hugged me tightly. “I came as soon as I heard,” she explained.“Athena was here, Davina” I bolted out as I held her hands. “I am going crazy, I don't know what to do, to say, to think…” I stammered as my words trailed off, fear crawled up my throat as I gasped for air.“Okay, take deep breaths and tell me what happens” Davina squeezed my hands as she took in a deep breath gesturing for me to take a deep breath.Reluctantly I took in deep breaths as I locked eyes with her, I was half mad in terror, as color drained from my face.“Okay, now tell me what happe
RACHEL'S POV.I sat down quietly in the moving car, taking a deep breath as I stared silently at the window. Besides me was my mother who stared at me, her face etched with concern.“Rachel” she called calmly as stared at me. “Are you certain?” She asked, her voice edged with fear and confusion.I turned to my mother, locking eyes with her, I wasn't sure of what had happened that day. I tilted my head quizzically. Memories of the incident flooded back to my mind, events that have no answers or an explanation. Memories of luthus attacks filled my thoughts. Luthus had appeared and tried attacking me, but it could not move closer to me as though something was protecting me, after many futile efforts, it disappeared into thin air.“I don't understand how you were protected from luthus,” my mother muttered. “Luthus is a powerful creature, even I couldn't fight it easily, it takes only a very powerful witch to do that”. She frowned as she tilted her head backward, confusion etched on her fa
AUTHOR'S POV.“Ladies and gentlemen the moment you have all been waiting for, I present to you our Alpha and his Luna with our three most favorite triplets in the world, please welcome Alpha Axel and Rachel” Davina shouted as the door opened revealing Alpha Axel and Rachel, behind them were maids who carried their triplets.Alpha Axel and Rachel walked into the hall majestically as they locked arms together, the whole hall filled with applause as they walked in, flowers and petals were thrown on them as they walked on the red carpet.“Rachel,” Davina shouted as she ran to hug her. “Congratulations, you are now officially the Luna of this great pack, you have given them three heirs at the same time, I am so happy for you”. Davina laughed as she held her hands.“Thank you so much sis, I love the decorations,” Rachel said as she glanced around.“I think that should be me, you should be thanking” Sam appeared from the back as she hugged Rachel, her face etched with a bright smile. “Congra
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.I ran inside the cottage as soon as I broke the door, my face flickered with shock as I saw Stephen holding Ardolf's head. I clenched my fists in anger, as tears brimmed in my eyes, I couldn't believe both my mother and brother were killed by the same people.“How dare you?” I shouted angrily as anger flared up in my veins. “You are indeed a monster,” I snapped.“Oh, you mean this?” He scoffed, raising Ardolf's head. “I thought you might want it as a gift” he chuckled.“Enough” Rachel commanded, her voice laced with venom as she walked in. “He is mine” her voice mixed with Mira's.“Rachel…” Stephen scoffed. “I heard you lost your children, I am so sorry for your loss” he scoffed. “Vampires were never my favorite, I had always hated them” Rachel eyed as she walked closer.“Bitch” Stephen cursed as he ran to Rachel, pushing her out the door and they both landed on the ground. “You shouldn't have” Stephen shouted as he tried choking her.My eyes opened in alarm and I t
AUTHOR'S POV.The evening sun cast long shadows on the ground. The slanting rays of the setting sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky, the sky was ablaze with the fire of the setting sun. The forest was filled with the sounds of chirping birds as they flew around the forest. The air filled with smoke coming from the chimney of a small cottage in the forest.“I can't believe Athena's dead” Ardolf's voice echoed through the forest, his voice laced with venom as he slammed his fists into the wall. “What are we going to do? He shouted at Stephen.Stephen immediately burst into laughter as he stared at Ardolf. “Athena brought this on herself, I warned her but she didn't listen to me and she met her demise as a consequence” Stephen scoffed.“I told you to wait, but none of you wanted to listen, Stephen just has to let his greed drive him in pursuit of the last piece of artifact, Ardolf desperately wanted the throne and Athena wanted revenge…” Cara paused as she glared at Stephen. “Sounds
RACHEL'S POV.I woke up with excruciating pain in my head, I could hear high-pitched ringing in my head, I slowly opened my eyes, and I was in a room. “What happened?” I muttered as I tried sitting up, “How did I get here?” I asked.“Rachel, are you okay,” Alpha Axel asked as he helped me up. “Are you okay?” He asked, his voice laced with concern.“What happened?” I asked as I scratched my hair in confusion. “ Why don't I remember anything?” I scoffed.“You don't remember anything?” Alpha Axel asked as he stared at me, his brows furrowed in curiosity.“I remember running with…” I paused as my memories started flooding back, my eyes widened in fear as I remembered we had been attacked by Luthus. “You don't need to stress yourself,” Alpha Axel said as he held my hand with a reassuring smile.“Luthus,” I said. My heart hammered loudly in my chest. “Luthus attacked us” I revealed, fear etched on my face.“And you killed it, you killed Luthus” Sam revealed as she walked closer. “You kill
AUTHOR'S POV.Alpha Cole and Alpha Axel sat quietly in the room, Alpha Axel's face etched with a mixture of seriousness and concern. Alpha Axel was brows furrowed in confusion as he thought about Alpha Cole's revelation, immediately they heard a scream followed by the alarm bell.“What was that?” Alpha Axel asked as he jerked up, exchanging glances with Alpha Cole. “The alarm bell” Alpha Cole answered, his brows furrowed in concern. “It seems we have an intruder,” he explained.“Intrude?” Alpha Axel asked, his mouth fell open in disbelief. “Could it be Stephen?”.“No, Stephen knows better than to attack the Whispers in their territory”. Alpha Cole explained as he walked out, Alpha Axel followed him outside quietly.Alpha Axel and Alpha Cole walked out quietly as they searched around for any suspicious movement. “Let’s go to the gate,” Alpha Cole suggested. “We need to know what is happening first,” he explained.“I need to check if Rachel and Davina are safe,” Alpha Axel said and ma
RACHEL'S POV.“Are you sure of what you are saying?” I asked as I stared blankly at Arya, I couldn't believe Athena was on the train.“I saw them talking but that was before Alpha Cole came” she explained.“But Alpha Axel didn't tell me anything,” I said as I bit my lips, fear and anxiety etched on my face.“Maybe he didn't want to make you worried,” Arya said, immediately opening the door, revealing Sam.“We are under attack” Sam revealed as she hurriedly walked towards us. “We need to get you to safety”.“But we just got here,” I said, exchanging glances with Arya, as I gasped for air in fear.“Luthus has penetrated the palace,” Sam said as she dragged me, Arya followed behind.“I can attack it, I think I know of a stronger spell”. Arya revealed as she trailed behind us.“Should I remind you that the Whisper pack and black witches do not get along?” Sam scoffed as she led us to a dark passage.“I grew up with Teresa, isn't she the black witch that works for the Whispers, I can pose
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.Alpha Cole led me into his father's place, the mansion was so big and spacious, and its wall was covered in pure gold, different statuses stood across the hallway, they were the status of every Alpha, Luna, great sentinels and elder who had given or devoted their lives to the Whisper pack.“What were you discussing with Athena?” Alpha Cole asked, breaking the silence.“Nothing much”. I shrugged. “She wasn't saying anything meaningful, she just kept on blabbering about how she is a victim and how she will take revenge” I scoffed.“We are here” he paused as he turned to me, his face contorted with seriousness. “My father hasn't yet approved of our alliance, so please do not do anything to annoy him” Alpha Cole warned before opening the door.The door opened revealing a bright room, the room had a very pleasant scent, it was filled with different shelves that contained many books, and a wine bar was located at the side. The room was etching with luxury.“Welcome home so
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.I slowly turned my head as I glared at the lady, my fist clenched as I gritted my teeth, fire evident in my eyes. “Athena” I muttered angrily, my eyes started glowing as my claws grew longer, I was ready to attack. “You finally showed your face,” I scoffed.“I have always been by your side, sometimes but you never noticed,” she laughed.“It is good that you finally came to see me because this time I can finally kill you for good” I glared at her, but immediately my face flickered to shock as she burst into laughter.“Axel you haven't changed, you are still that boastful and proud shit but somehow you always look charming unfortunately I have changed, I have become stronger than you could ever imagine” she scoffed, her voice laced with pride.“I had always hated you after I knew you had become a vaewolf, I couldn't believe you would stoop so low, and now I just feel pity” I shook my head in disappointment, my voice laced with pity.“Don't you dare pity me” she snappe
AUTHOR'S POV.“Are you ready Rachel?” Alpha Axel asked as he approached her, carrying two bags filled with his belongings.“Almost ready,” Rachel answered. “I can't believe today's the day to travel to the Whisper pack, what do you think the Whisper pack would look like?” Rachel smiled as she folded her clothes neatly and arranged them in a box.“I don't know but all I care about is for you to be safe, and to bring Brandon back and finally get rid of Stephen, Ardolf, Athena and Cara” he explained, gritting his teeth, “I would be waiting for you outside,” he said and walked out. Immediately the door opened and Lucien walked in. “Rachel” he called, his face etched with seriousness and remorse. “I heard you guys were leaving today, is it safe for you and your babies?” He asked, his voice laced with concern.“It's fine, we don't have a choice,” she smiled. “What are you doing here and where is Davina?” Rachel asked as she locked eyes with him.“She was coming with me but I told her to wa
