Sarah could only cry on behalf of Paris. How could someone put up with so much for the sake of another? While both of them stayed all day chatting and passing out time, Mara and the others had long left the pack house. On orders of the alpha, Mara was not allowed to go up to the second floor where Sarah and Paris were. ‘’It is late, I should get going now,” Sarah tells Paris, gathering her things. Paris felt sad seeing her leave but there was just so little she could do. She had known from the very start, Sarah had to leave at some point. She dreaded the thought of her staying alone all by herself but there was nothing she could do. Sarah was only a servant and as such at some point, she had to retire to her quarters for proper rest… ‘’Will you be okay?’’ Sarah asked as she reached for the doorknob. Paris could only nod in approval. How could she tell Sarah she was not okay, she did not feel safe and her baby was restless. Sarah walked out of the main gate when a guard rushed to c
Beta Ben walked over to his bed, gesturing to Sarah to take a seat by his side. There was so much to be sorted out between the both of them and he planned on doing it on that same night. ‘’I want you, not just for my mate, but I must confess the mate bond is pulling even harder than I had expected. Sarah, I can promise you will be the only one for me and no one else. I know this is hard to believe but all I want is you. All I want is to be with my mate”’ every word beta Ben said, sank deep into the heart of Sarah. How could she keep on resisting when the both of them wanted the same thing? How can she deny not wanting him? It may not be as strong as he felt, but she was certain she wanted him, she needed him and she loved to be with him and him alone. ‘’What do you say? We give it a chance?’’ beta Ben asked, not trusting his words. He did not want to try out things with her. He wanted her but the fear of losing her was even greater than his desire to force anything on her. ‘’I wa
The sun peeped through the curtains, giving way to some light in the room. Sarah steered in her sleep so tired and reluctant to wake up. Her body felt so sore but she could feel the soft cloth against her skin. ‘’I was naked” She opens her eyes at the realization of reality. The room was familiar and it was not hers, it was not the room she shared with Mara neither was it the room kept separate in the pack house for maids ‘’This is Beta Ben’s room’’ Sarah thought out loud. It was the same as she had arranged the last time. She tried getting up but the soreness in between her legs and her back won't let her. She fell back on the bed hard. ‘’It is no dream, it happened”’ she tells herself as her hands grace through the mark on her neck. She stepped off the bed and only then did she notice she was well dressed and had been cleaned up and changed into a neat set of men's pajamas. One sniff and she knew just who it belonged to. A glance at the clock and Sarah was freaking out. She had
It's been two days since Emandra, Chase, Enzo, and Shane left for the snowfall pack while Stephanie just arrived at the moon crescent pack. As expected, she was well welcomed, Chase had made sure of that. As she walked her way into the pack house, she could not help but notice the big portrait of Emandra hanging on the wall in her wolf form. Emma was indeed a beauty to withhold. ‘’Isn't she the most beautiful?’’ minister Franchester asked Stephanie. ‘’Oh yeah,’’ Stephanie turned to her with a smile. She had done her findings before arriving and knew Minster Franchester was now on the alpha’s side and there was no way she would help her win Chase over Emandra. Stephanie needed more allies than foes. She needed someone who would be more than willing to support her, someone who wanted to see her as Luna and see Emandra thrown out of the pack lands. ‘’I heard of Sofia, please where is she now?’’ Stephanie asked. At the mention of Sofia Anderson, Minister Franchester suddenly became s
It's been a week since Stephanie returned to the snowfalls pack and no news had reached Chase or Enzo. While they were worried, Chase was calmed by the thought of having Minister Franchester in charge of almost everything. They were so close to the Snowfall pack. Emandra has been avoiding Laan and Laya. no matter how much they tried to approach her, she was determined to push them away. ‘’Come in”’ Emandra shouts from inside. They were lounged in a hotel just by the borders of the snowfall pack. While Enzo and Chase went about taking rounds and surveying the area, emandra stayed behind. The shadows wanted to stay with her, but they had to leave with Chase knowing the dangers they were engaging in. ‘’Good morning Luna,” the housekeeping staff greeted me. Her calling her Luna was no coincidence. While their visit to the snowfall pack was of secrecy, Alpha Chase had not only lounged in a cheap hotel but the most priced and confidential. Only top staff handpicked were allowed to
Once they were done with Lunch, Alpha Chase and Enzo headed out once again but this time around not for surveys but to meet up with a few allies. ‘’What do you say about shopping?’’ Emandra asked Chase who only shook his head. His mind was miles away, the incident of earlier was still on his mind. How could he forget such a thing? Despite how embarrassed he felt towards Enzo, he could not help liking the feeling of being close to him. Emandra was too excited to go shopping, it's been a long time since she shopped. While they wore masks to conceal their identities, no one recognized them as they walked through the mall. Shane was only a tag-along, he was too distracted to notice they had had company ever since they left the hotel. Emandra walked into every shop picking out cute items for herself, Chase, Shane, and Enzo. She was shopping for everyone. On reaching the 4th gate, she quickly handed the bags over to Shane. ‘’I need to head to the bathroom’’ Shane just nodded, taking th
Mirrod stared at the man before him not sure why he felt he looked more like his mother, but just the difference of gender. ‘’Dearest nephew, it's either you want your mate or your mother, there is no bargain’’’ King Kenrick reminds Alpha Mirrod. ‘’I want my mate, it will be dumb for me to choose my mother when she is already by my side’’ Mirrod laughs. Looking at his mother's lookalike, he felt he was rather stupid. ‘’Well, that's what you think. Bonds severed can never be retrieved. You have chosen another above her and so shall it be, even if she rejects you, you can never go back to your mother’’ King Kenrick’s words were more of a riddle. Mirrod understood nothing neither did he care to know. He quickly carried emandra into his arms. ‘’Before you walk out that door, you should be aware, you have thrown her out. She now belongs to me, her twin and no one else’’ King Kenrick tells him one last time. ‘’I know that, and I knew she had a twin, just don't know why you choose to b
“About time’’ Enzo spoke, not realizing the true meaning of what Chase had just said. ‘’Wait, what did you say? The lycan king as in Emandra’s father has been found?’’ Enzo asked, sprinting up to his feet. He was so quick that Shane had badly had time to move before he knocked him down. ‘’Yes, the shadows just informed me using Emma, but I can't get to them’’ Chase tells the boys walking over to the drawer. He opens it taking out a substance in a red bottle. ‘’What is that and why do you have it?’’ Eno asked, stepping forward. ‘’It was given my granny Reeker to give to the King when the time comes.’’ Shane was the one to explain. Enzo turned to him, not liking the calmness within him. ‘’You knew, you have known all this while’’ Enzo stepped even closer, making Shane take a few steps back. Their closeness was affecting him in weird ways. At such a time he needs no distractions, all he wants at this point is the betterment of his sister and the world to be at peace. ‘’And what if
Stephanie settled where she thought it would be even difficult to get anyone who knew her. It has been 5 years of rasing Kimberly all alone. Yes, she had settled on the name Kimberly for her baby girl. There were times she wished Mathew was still with them, most especially as Kim looked everything like her father. Curly hair, and blue eyes that capture the heart of everyone. But how could she wish to still go back to him after all these years? The more time went by the more she tried to hide. But everything was rather getting out of hand as Kimber was set on finding a new daddy for herself and a husband for mummy. Picking her up from school, as always she would pretend like she islost with her mother only waking a few feets away from her and set her with a man on blind dates. It has been a habit of hers from a very young age. Unlike other childen, she was no ordinary baby, as early as 3 she behaved and acted like 5 years olds in the human would. Stephanie was ready onse againt to g
Everyone was still in shock when Sofia went ahead to stab her mother. ‘’Why?’’ Mrs. Anderson asked trying to face her daughter, but she only pushed her hard to the ground. ‘’This is for all the lies you told me. All the times you watched me suffer and did nothing.’’ Sofia did not feel remorseful at all. ‘’It's time”’ everyone heard Brandon announce as they put on their masks. Sofia was too late to react as the medication they had prepared themself, came falling on her body. It was not about it falling but threatening it was the main objective. Laan and Laya hover all over the territory making sure no one is left. Victory was finally theirs, but it cost them so much. ‘’Long live the king… long live the queen”’ the lycans all began chanting while the other soldiers joined in. This is what he wanted, he wanted to be accepted, but at this point, it did not bring him joy. So much has happened and the death of Shane hurt more and more thinking of it. Enzo sat with the body of Shane i
‘’One down’’ Minister Francherster sent words across. Moon Crescent had not only won the battle but the war. ‘’What do we do now?’’ Kelis asked stepping out of his tent. The gammas were doing a total clean before the area turned into a decaying center. ‘’Find the vampire queen, the only tip I have is the dark hills’’ Beta Enzo replied. Mrs Anderson may be a born vampire, but she was not from a royal family. Just like her husband, she has been power desperate making her surround herself with only people with similar thinking as her. Henrietta had not been the first. The vampire army was not just an army to be controlled by any reason why they had not been the one to attack. As the view of Altera came fort, Alpha Ben, Sarah, Paris, and Enzo watched from a good distance as Sofia Anderson all dressed up and ready for war launched for the Red Valley. The death of Keeper only made it easier for them to gain acess to the lands. ‘’They are here’’ Alpha Chase tells everyone. The ground tre
A dress containing more gold than the min, emandra had to put up with the heavy royal golden veil, as she dragged it along with her to the throne. It was only a matter of minutes before she could finally get out of it. As she walked up to her throne, Grandmother Reeker, stood on the front with a proud smile. Years it has been as she dreams of her grandbaby taking over, here her dream has finally become a reality. ‘’No turning, butting, tweeting, swearing, cursing’’’ Emandra listened carefully. She was not sure she would be able to keep away from swearing but saying I do at the moment was more important. She could not wait to get out of her dress. ‘’I Emandra, hereby accept to be the queen of Altera. To rule with a just hand and mind, to put my people first, and the be an exemplary ruler for the sake of the people and the world. I do so swear to bring Altera to greater heights’’ The scepter of royal handed to her by her grandmother shined in the room indicating acceptance. ‘’I he
‘’What?’’ Emandra exclaimed as they all stared at each other, no one dared make a sound. “Shane, what is going on?’’ Emandra turned to her brother who looked like he had so much to say. “‘You won't believe this, but the enemy has been closer than we all knew it from the very start. The Andersons are mixed.’’ Chase and emandra stared at him, not sure what he was talking about. ‘’What are you saying?’’ Alpha Chase asked impatiently. ‘’Mr. Anderson has been married to a vampire all this while and their daughter Sofia Anderson is a ..’’ ‘’hybrid’’ Emandra completed his words. Enzo was listening, he did not know when the coffee mug left his hands, but the shattering sound was enough to wake up Paris from sleep. ‘’We are fucked’’ Enzo cursed. ‘’The great war is just within the horizon.”’ Shane whispers. Rushing to the dungeon, Alpha Chase walks in to meet their prisoners all seated drained and in pain. ‘’Alpha”’ the guards bow in respect. Unlike the others who were almost passed out,
Paris's hands went to her mouth as she tried hard not to scream. ‘’Miss’’ the guard held her, taking her out of the room. If only he had known the content of the box. Beta Enzo walks in just in time to see the guard take Paris outside. ‘’What's wrong?’’ he asked, stepping closer, but Paris was too frightened to talk. ‘’Beta, someone delivered a package’’ the guard tells him, pointing towards the direction of the smiling head. Enzo stood speechless at the sight before him. ‘’Wrapp it up, and bury it’’ he instructed before walking out and taking Paris out of the area. ‘’’ Who would do such a thing? Why will they send it to me?’’ Paris had a thousand questions going through her mind, but there was no answer. She was not on good terms with Ursula but it did not dispute the fact, she was the only mother she had known for a very long time. ‘’Seeing that the package was not sent to Luna Emandra or Shane proves whoever sent it is aware of your relationship with Ursula. Why don't we visi
In the shadows of the night, Ursula crept her way towards the borders, she had so much to do with so little time left in her hands. She was looking for nothing but an escape route. It was time for her to write her mistakes. So much was happening in her life right now that she was not comfortable with. ‘’Gotcha’’ she scrambled to her feets trying to gather herself. It was none other than Emand. ‘’What are you doing here?’’ Ursula asked glancing around. It was unlikely for Emand to be so far away from the mansion without anyone noticing her absence. Unlike the rest of them, she was the pet of the queen. Always seeking attention for relevance. Of Course, Ursula was aware of it, the reason why she had not shared her plans with her. ‘’Leaving without me?’’ Eman asked, visibly irritated. Ursula did not know how to defend herself. Yes, she was leaving and leaving without her. She had so much to take care of and one of it was warming her children. They might be only stepchildren to her but
‘’ It is time’’ a cold voice announced. Everyone in the room was well-armed and ready for war. ‘’We can't go just yet’’ a painting Ursula walked and ran into the room breathless. She looked nothing like the mate of Albert, the mistress of the Carter mansion who adorned herself with expensive perfume and jewelry. In rags and her hair all out she was barely recognizable. ‘’What is it this time around?’’’ the leader asked, sounding pissed. She has been waiting for this moment for the longest time and now that I am finally here a maid of hers was standing in her way. She had zero tolerance for declaring. ‘’They were caught, they were jailed’’ Ursula replied painting. ‘’What?... how can they be so foolish to allow themselves to be caught? Why do I always have to take care of everything personally?’’ Ursula did not say more. She steps out of the building. She could smell the disgusting stench coming from her body, if only she was allowed to bathe as much as she wanted like in the Carter
Loud gasps echoed all over the ceremonial ground. Every eye was on the ministers as they all stood guiltily. Minister Freda wanted so much to scream and tell the world she had no hand in the sudden demise of the king but were her words enough? Their actions and guilty looks had long condemned them. ‘’What? cat got your tongues? I did tell you yesterday, that it takes two to tangle. You wanted to play chess and I am that opponent who chose you”’ laya stood over the ministers with a wicked grin. ‘’’ Letting you go will be the worst mistake, hence I will be personally in charge of overseeing your death, but that will only have to take place when the queen and king have been crowned.’’ Laya turned to the guards who had long stepped away from the king. They now understood the side they had to arrest, the group of murderers stood not blinking. Not one of them said a word. The more they try to bring up arguments of the innocents the more their minds fail them. ‘’I was only asked to drop
