I was in my hotel suite when I get a message from the alpha of Arabal pack that the meeting for which I fly here all the way is postponed from its scheduled time in the evening tonight which means I have to cancel my fight to get back home after the meeting in the tonight.
‘God, why can’t people be punctual anymore?’ I muttered under my breath as flip my iPad at the nearest couch and walked toward the glass balcony of my luxurious hotel suite which is giving a marvelous view of the early morning sun from this height.
‘Well, I must say India is a sight to see.’ I whispered to myself as nodding my head in approval.
I am feeling bored, work all day tired me up, and for this place, I am new. I was never been to India before except one time when I end up lost or in an exact sense I don’t remember that night exactly what I did.
I decided to change into my tracksuit, get ready myself for a walk to clear my mind. Yes, it is early morning best for a morning walk, and yes I am already tired because I am a night owl.
I can’t sleep in the night for so long I remember, I don’t know why it is like that, but it is what it is now.
I have Insomnia, in medical terms which can’t be cure still by any country specialist.
I am not complaining about anything, I learn to the fact and even I start to enjoy my nighttime with myself after trying so hard to make myself sleep then whether it is from drinking, medicines, parties, or work. All the way nothing works that why I set with the fact that night sleep is not in my account.
‘I think the moon goddess has other plans for us.’ I thought to myself.
‘Like make us meet our mate?’ Xavier speaks inside my mind through our bond.
And if you start to think I am mad, talking to myself and pretending to be another human inside my mind, so no, I’m not mad. Xavier is my wolf. Yes, you heard right, a wolf soul which is bound with a human that what makes me a werewolf shifter right? Yes.
If you still don’t know who I am so don't worry because it usual for humans to unaware of shifters' existence.
Yes, I’m a shifter, a werewolf shifter, and not less even an alpha of the world’s strongest and biggest pack.
I am Alexander Watson, Alpha king of Moon Creast Pack. Which is known as the world’s biggest and lethal fighters pack, and for me, I’m not going to deny that. We did hard work to gain that position after all.
But I’m also a businessman for human eyes a multi-billionaire and most eligible bachelor.
Funny right? But true, peoples just see what you want to show them and as per shifters government's law, we decided to hide our very existence from humans.
Yes, you can say it for their well-being that they just think we only exist in paranormal books or movies and series like twilight.
It doesn’t matter by the way if unawareness gives them peace so be it, and we are happy to be live in secret.
I scoffed at my wolf words he still believes that fairytales my parents used to tell us when I and my sister were children, about magic, fate, princess or prince charming, and how the moon goddess made a special one for everyone.
'Don't lose hope. She is somewhere out there, waiting for us.' Xavier whisper again as trying to convince me to have faith in the moon goddess at least.
I'm not an attituded or self dumped soul, hell I'm not even close to that in my usual life, but when it comes to this topic. Yeah, you can tell from your knowledge of shifter romance novel, what more important thing in the life of a werewolf?
Yes, I'm talking about a mate. Which is the hottest topic in us shifters. Well, not that as novels describe us but one thing is right mate is like light to guide our wolf in darkness and help to keep our inner beast in control.
You probably thinking now that, then why I don't want a mate, if it is so important thing in shifters life? Well, it is not like that, I want a mate too but after 5 years of turning 18 years of age (which is the prescribed age for wolf's to search for his or her mate) and searching all over the world, I got to the conclusion that the moon goddess forgot to make that special one for me and my wolf. That's why I just give up the idea of finding her.

I enter the club through VIP row cause this club belongs to the local pack here, the Arabel Pack, and this is the place where they held meetings.
Weird? No, the alpha of Arabel Pack is an amazing guy himself who knows how to mix work with fun and this is a good thing. Right?
I walked further inside as one of his pack members who seem to be working here, guide me towards the well luxurious meeting room on the third floor.
'Impressive.' I muttered as looked at my surrounding. I must say alpha Dan has a good taste and amazing ideas too. The perfect mix of work and fun as a night club and elite meeting room together.
"Alpha king! " I come out of my sight-seeing as someone called me by my post, I professionally composed myself with no emotion look as looked towards long meeting table filled with Alphas of different packs from all over the world.
I give them a nod as they all are standing on their seats head bowed down in respect of their alpha king.
I take my seat on the head chair of the table and gestured others sit, don't think I enjoy showing off my power and strength. Hell no! It would be the last thing in my mind but the thing is I am here in this meeting as their leader and alpha of the world's strongest pack. So, I have to follow protocols.
Soon meeting start and we discussed all important matters which need to be solved fast, it is a way to protect and support our species, by helps each pack's survival and growth.
After we finished work, now fun time as we all entered in clubs' VIP section which is separated from normal party peoples by a black glass mirror wall. Soon drinks serve while us all sitting on the black leather couches and enjoying a drink and watching peoples dancing on high beats through the black mirror wall.
I don't know what's makes Xavier feeling uneasy, but something is wrong with him. I can feel he is confused over something but I don't know what it is. I excused myself and leave room to go outside maybe he just needs some fresh air.
I am about to exit the club but stop when I sense something, which I just heard from others but never experience myself, which held me captive as my feet taking me towards the other side of the club from where I come before.
I take a deep breath and this time I find that alluring scent more strongly, it's something amazing, the scent of roses and fruits mixed in a perfect combo which is making my wolf feeling uneasy.
I look around to find it's the source but can't see the owner of this amazing scent in a crowd of peoples, but Xavier is not ready to leave now, and want me to search more.
I accept his demand as walked further inside to looking for that mysterious person, and then I find her sitting with two girls, yes this scent is coming from a girl who is sitting there but I can still tell she is short in height around 5' feet has a tan skin tone, hip-length black hairs.
I can't see her face because she is sitting with her back In front of me, but I bet she must be a pretty little thing, with the effect he has on my wolf with her mere scent.
Her friend looked in my side must be feeling my gaze on them, before whispering something to her. And then something happens which I never aspect. Hell, even I lost hope for that.
A girl from which this scent is coming turned to look in my direction with a bored expression first which is soon turned into shock as mine.
She is indeed the cute little thing I ever saw, she has a slim body, what you can say hourglass shape. Wearing black denim short dress, hair wear down, perfect kissable lips, and what is making me freeze in my place is her doe-like big dark eyes with long dark lashes.
She instantly turned back on her seat but too late with just one glance in her beautiful eyes, I know I get her. She is mine, the one and only person who made by the moon goddess for me.
But still for confirmation Xavier, shouted in my mind, ‘MATE!’
***Amber P.O.VI'm on my way to my office, oh did I introduce myself formally? I think no, so here, I am Amber Mehra, doing my internship in an accountancy firm. This is a big and famous firm, and I got a lot of experience from here which is going to help me after I get my degree and open
My hands are shaking from fear as my mind is reeling scenarios, that how bad it can be, ends up on little scolding or big insult show. I look up towards the ceiling as praying to my God to save me or open the floor to engulf me alive, save me from this horrific moment.But I guess my guardian angel is on break now or busy somewhere else. He stops near the reception area from where he can see every employee directly. He cleared his throat to gain others' attention which not be needed, I don’t know how but it’s happened every time we can feel his gaze on us from the second he enters the
Alexander POV***The phone ring makes me look at my phone screen, a smile coated my lips as seeing the name of a person calling me. I answer the call as greet in a soft and happy tone, “Good morning, Sweetheart. Missing me?”
Amber’s POV***Ignoring the gaze of peoples I made my way toward the neuro department, well from the mentality of peoples here if you are going to the neuro department so they are going to declare you half-crazy already, no matter you are or not, that’s why I hate when peoples glancing towards me like I’m a mental patient.
I left Hospital after today’s session, still lost in my thoughts, eyes are swollen from crying, but I can’t waste any more time crying over my fate, I have to go back to work. I decide to take a public bus despite the train because this new location which my boss send me is easy to get from public bus despite the metro.After 1 hour of the journey, I reached in front of big sky touching the building, A&A is a big empire, their office is giving an elite feeling as I entered, I’m a bit nervous because it’s the first time I have to meet a client alone not any other employe
Alexander POV***To said I’m sad is an understatement here is haven’t slept as thinking about her every passing second since I meet her, tried hard to find her and she didn’t even recognize me even her friend remember me, but not she.
Amber’s POV***We said our goodbyes as we parted our ways, luckily Suzi didn’t raise that topic again neither I can find out any information about that night from her, I can’t risk her being suspicious of me. Maybe I can find some information from Archi? Or that guy Alexander? ‘Hmm, good idea Ammy.’ I praise myself as walking towards my home. I reached my home at the exact time as always, I don’t want my family to call me hundred times to ask where am I, it’s what they do usually because according to them I&rsquo
Amber's POV***I reached my assigned client place, A&A Inc. Companie's office building, after lunchtime. That receptionist from before showed me my assigned cabin, her name is Asha, I thanked her before she left me alone after giving files and documents I required to do my job here.Today I can work in peace as Suzi is not here to disturb me with her super important topic, and neither is Archie. I start my work, checking digits shown in the documents and ledgers, that's how time flies.By the time I finished my today's task my phone screen was showing 8 pm, it's dark outside. I turned off my system before saving my files.People are leaving whose shift is over, I wish goodnight to Asha who is also ready to leave as her shift is over.I don't know why but a thought crosses my mind and I asked her as we walked together outside the building, "I haven't seen Mr. Dan nor his partner nearby all day-"Before I sa
We were standing in front of the huge arc-shaped rock. This place is ancient as you can tell by the unknown language runes carved on it. This is known as the portal. I'm feeling blessed right now, not knowing from how long we waited for this dream to come true. Today it's finally happening. I nodded toward Ammy to start it. It's a ritual she has to perform, one last thing to do. She placed her hand on the rune engraved as the sign of hand and lit the torch which is well known as the soul key, in the black space of arc. Rays of light took the shape of a huge circle filling the gap between the arc. The sound of gasping filled the background as everyone in this cave looked at the gateway with wet eyes. I can't explain in words what my heart is going through right at this moment. I never felt this before, this is beyond what I can understand, something new found. I ordered the children and females of my clan to become the f
Ammy P. O. V All other voices stopped except the rhythm of water flowing from the fountain and the jingling of the key fighting with air surrounding it. And then it happens, it moves from the prescribed place and flies in my direction. I didn't let my control waiver just a little more and it will be mine. The key is about to reach the glass barrier when suddenly it's frozen in its place. How could it happen? Shit! I got the answer to my questions when I heard a horrible scream and turned to look towards the person from whom it's coming. It was coming from that female guard whose eyes are stuck at the soul key. if I am not wrong so she is controlling the soul key as I did seconds ago. She is using all her powe
The silence here is scary, however, I keep walking to the source of light. I was right, the thing illuminating the whole place is the soul key. It's flying in the air, over the white marble fountain of red water. An orange glow shooting out of it complimenting the bright sun. I slowly open my eyes and this time a visible glass wall from around the fountain and inside standing a woman wearing a red hood, smiling chilling in my way, it raises goosebumps over my skin in anticipation of what's about to come next… "Well, well look what we have here… what's a little human born doing here? Have you lost my dear human?" Her words sound honey-dipped however not in agreement with her sharp features. I let my eyes waver over the woman standing in front of me, taking over
Ammy P. O. V I flinched and pulled myself backward with each step this horrible creature took forward toward me. His dark eyes are getting darker with the anticipation of the hunt, scaring me even more. No matter how hard I tried to deny it, but that's it. I have nowhere to run now. Death is here to embrace me in its darkness, this is my final moment. I dare to let my eyes anticipate the fall I would have to take if I step an inch backward from the heights I am standing at. It's beyond my range if wouldn't for the beast blocking my way. I have just been looking for another way to reach the secret cave in the deep end of the mountain core. It happened in the blink of an eye. In the next second, I tightly shut
Alex P. O. V the sound of thumping is the main cause I forced open my eyes to stop this annoying voice. My head is bursting and with each second this voice magnified itself to the next level. It's fucking annoying. This headache! A loud groan came out of my mouth and I forced open my eyes to take a look at the surroundings I'm in. The rotten smell of iron and dirt entered my nostrils. I can easily recognize it anywhere. It's underground dungeon cell and clinging of the silver bound around my hands and feet are just enough to prove me right. I raised my head from the metal ground beneath me to evaluate my cell and locate 2 guards who were trying to hide themselves as they peeked through from the other sides of the bars. It's hard to not notice their trembling bodies and the way their hands clutch the sword. It ama
Ammy P. O. V What a weird coincidence it is. I'm standing in the same spot from where I started. The same spot from where I started my discovery was the answer to the questions I was looking for. This time I'm not going to be scared, I know the danger involved in it but the reward is worth it too. And I will be grateful if I help all the people here who consider themselves responsible for the crimes that they never had done. If you are thinking I have some epic idea so no you are wrong. I have no plans, no backups, nothing well prepared, but I have that one thing that can help you do whatever you want to do in your life and that is willpower. I'm willing to do this. No, it's no more for the answers I was looking for but it's more for the lives of so many people who showed kindness towards me even thou
Ammy P. O. V The sound of metal lock clicking made contact with my eardrums. In the darkness of a cold cell, even a pin drop noise magnifies to the next level. I snapped my neck in that direction and blinked many times to clear my view to lock at the person entering inside the cell. For my human sight, it's not easy to make out an image in the dark, all I can make out is the silhouette of a tall figure. But it's not enough to tell who this person is. "Who's there?" I asked in confusion when that person didn't utter a word and just stood there observing me from far away. Despite answering my question, loud footsteps moved in my way, making me scrunched back in my seat, in the back of the corner of the cell. Silver l
Ryn P. O. V I begged my father to listen to me, to give us a chance to explain but he didn't listen a single word and ordered his guards to lock me in my room. The relationship between my father and me was limited to our clan business. We are not like normal father-daughter. Even at home we only talked to each other when it related to the clan's work. I don't feel bad about it anymore, I already passed that point and made peace with myself. I was aware of what was going to happen. That's why I had already formed a counter plan to cope with it. If they are thinking I'm going to stay here to cry my eyes out or feel sorry so it's their fault. I jumped on my feet and grabbed my weapons out of the drawer to stuff it in my leather boats. Before I make my way to
Ammy P. O. V Things get messy, the crowd gets afraid to heat up as the minutes pass by. With Ryn out of the picture and a heated argument going on between two Alphas, the room's temperature is pretty much heated. We don't want to make things more complicated. But I don't know how to clear up this misunderstanding. It's hard to break the belief upon which these people have been living here for centuries. If I were in their shoes I would have the same mindset. I can't even imagine the burden each and every one carries here on their souls as Ryn. They all are tagged with the label of prisoner's for the actions which are not done by them. These people keep locked here far away from the normal life that other species of Darkland are enjoying, when these
