Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 130 - Refusal
KAIREL “What?” Forced to look around so that I could be certain that no one was watching, I looked at Annora. “What do you mean?” The smile on her face faded completely. “I'm rejecting you as my mate, Kairel. Can't you see? I don't have anything to do with you any longer and I am sure you're certain of this.” “No, I am not certain.” “What do you mean, Annora?” “Make me understand why you've rejected me as your mate when you're not supposed to.” A sigh ran out of my mouth and I held myself from shouting so much at the woman who moped at me, a wicked smile on her countenance. It looked like this was a moment of hers she spent all her years waiting for. And I wasn't going to let her have power over me. Not now or ever. “Lord Kairel?” I looked at her, walked back to the stone, and took a seat on it. “Of course, Annora.” “I am happy with the Alpha, Lord Kairel,” she announced and it made me more angered than I already was. “Myself and the Alpha are happy with each othe

ANNORA “You rejected him?” “Yes, Aegon.” Alpha Aegon heaved a sigh. “He must be so heartbroken. The poor man who should understand.” “Why should you care if he's heartbroken or not, Aegon? You should be happy he's no longer linked with me. Do you need me to accept him back?” What the fuck was wrong with this man? I heaved a sigh and looked around the room even though there was no one there with us. “It's funny but I thought you wanted me to not have a thing to do with Kairel any longer. I have put an end to that and you have an issue with it.” “I don't want you to have a thing to do with Kairel. I'm just saying I feel bad for him.” “I see.” “Is it that hard that you cannot understand?” A sigh ran out of his mouth as he walked away from the window, taking a seat on the bed next to me. What to say, I didn't know. Maybe I did, but not anymore. “Thank you, baby—” he took my hand in his for a moment so that he could kiss it. “Do you want to know why I feel for him? I

ANNORAHow did I not think about this from the onset? Sora moped at me but she wasn't my problem in the meantime even though it was her assistance I needed in order to achieve this. “My lady?” “Yes, Sora?” I looked up after some time. “You don't want to know what I have come up with. I'll let you know what it is about in a moment.” I adjusted on the bed where I sat. “You like Lord Kairel, don't you?”“My lady—” she cried. “What sort of a question is that?” She adjusted on the couch and looked around the chamber. “I'm not supposed to hate the man, should I?” “That's not what I mean, and you know.” A chuckle escaped my mouth and I was standing on my feet, walking to the couch so that we could stay closer to each other for this conversation. “Do you like Lord Kairel in a way of sex? Even marriage.” I took a seat on the couch next to her. “I like the former Beta.” She admitted. “But I cannot have anything to do with a man who took my best friend to prison even though it wasn't

KAIREL The morning of a new week arrived. I was supposed to be better than last week, but it looked like I had become worse than the previous week and this was why I chose to spend time alone in my chamber until I had a reason to be out. Opening my eyes on the bed this morning, I wondered what to do when I was ready for the morning. I let my eyes shut and sleep took hold of me, while I spent the rest of my time in a world that existed only when the eyes were shut. Opening them the next time, it was the sound of someone hitting the door of my chamber. Why? What for? “My lord?” The womanly voice called. I sat up on the bed, thoughts of how I got here in the first place running around in my head. Then, I heaved a sigh and managed to stand on my feet, after which I reached the door so that I could unlock it and when I did, it was a maid. Not just any type of maid. It was Sora. The woman with the keys to achieving something. “Good morning, Sora—” I opened the door w

KAIREL “Wh—what did you just say, Sora?” The woman looked up from the chair where she sat, standing up on her feet. “Yes, Lord Kairel. Shouldn't you be thinking of something you should do to Annora? Doesn't she deserve some kind of punishment for what she's done?” Shock pulled up on my countenance. I didn't know what to say. Was this a setup? I wanted to ask when Sora walked to the door. She opened it slightly and looked out. I could see the body of the guard and then suddenly, Sora turned around to look at me, then shut the door. “What do you want to do to her?” I could not pretend that I wasn't confused, because I was. What was the woman talking about? Should Annora not be her best friend? “I know what's going on in your mind, Lord Kairel. The fact that Annora should be my best friend, isn't it?” She chuckled and let out. “She stopped being my best friend the moment I fell in love with the Alpha. He was supposed to be mine and she was supposed to be yours, but she

AEGON “No, brother. I don't want to—” “I insist, Aegon.” Without a word from Kairel—I didn't want to hear any, after all, I turned to look at the women who went about their businesses. “Lady Agnes. You'll ask the maids to bring the meals to the dining hall. That's where I'd like to spend some time with Kairel who is showing his face for the first time in a very long time. Do you understand?” “Yes, my lord. I understand you.” “Good.” I looked away and walked towards the door with Kairel who was smiling. Then I turned back around to look at Agnes who called. “You didn't tell us what you'd love to have.” “Whatever Kairel is having, I shall have.” Turning around once more, I looked at the man who moped at me with the same smile. “How have you been?” We walked out of the kitchen together and walked towards the living room where Sora and Annora were seated. “Hello, ladies.” Annora looked up. “Good day, Alpha.” She looked at Kairel whose countenance seemed to change. “Go

ANNORA “Tell me already, what's going on between you and the former Beta.” I urged. Sora heaved a sigh, and then a smile pulled up on her countenance while she adjusted on the couch in my large bedroom space. “I do not appreciate you smiling like that with no words coming out of your mouth, Sora—” I cried. “Don't try to act like you don't know what I'm talking about and now that you do, talk to me.” “My lady—” the woman looked at me with a nod. “The former Beta and I are beginning to get along, even to the point that we like each other.” The announcement sounded like a joke to me but it was Sora and I didn't have a choice but to believe anything that came out of her mouth. “That's—” my mouth opened. “That's unusual.” “I know!” She cried. “I didn't tell you what I did, did I? Well, that's because you asked me to go ahead with whatever I believed was right. So the next week that came was the day I took a tray of food I spent hours cooking early that morning.” “What?!” It w

KAIRELI burst into laughter when I heard her story. “This is funny—” I confessed. “How did you come up with all of these?” I rolled on the bed and laughed out louder. “This is so funny, Sora.” “My lord.” She cried. “You needed to see me in action.” I erupted into another round of laughter. Sora joined and I sat back on the bed with more laughs running out of my mouth. “This is a good thing you've done, Sora. Standing in the gap for me when you should. And one thing you must know is that I don't and will never take it for granted. Do you understand me?” “Feel free to take it for granted, Lord Kairel. It's also for my benefit, after all.” A smile appeared on her countenance and she relaxed again on the bed after taking a piece of meat from the plate of pepper meat she brought to my chamber. And now that I recalled the plate of meat, I remembered to say something. “There's something I've been meaning to tell you since that day you brought a tray of food to my chamber. And today

Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 154 - Another Happy Ending
AEGONEventually, I became a better man. How could I not be with the woman of my dreams next to me? Life was beautiful with Annora, and the seed she's given to me. My son. Our son. The prince of this Pack. I walked into the living room one morning, dressed for the occasion. It was the day when the name of our son will be given to him. With Annora by my side, I heaved a sigh. She was better. Better than the worst I saw that night in the Healer's abode. “Are you ready?” Her voice cut short my thoughts. In her arms was the baby, our new son. The name I would give him was known by myself and the woman I loved. Not just others. Except of course, Darius who I trusted so much, despite everything that happened long before now. He was the man I should have trusted long ago, not Kairel. “I'm ready,” I turned. “Where is Darius?” “On my way,” his voice sounded from behind. He reached the living room space in moments and together, we walked out of the living room. The pack was filled up w
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 153 - Good News. Death
AEGON It was exactly one month when I heard noises from the room, on the same bed where I lay. I opened my eyes and sat up, turned to look at the Luna who sat up with her hand on her waist. “Aegon, I think the baby is coming.” She announced and I was alert, jumping on my feet with fear that could be seen on my countenance. “What?” I asked even though I clearly heard. “Darius?” “My lord.” The man sounded from the door. Without permission, the man walked into the room and there was me who sat next to Annora who shouted at the top of her voice. “We must take her to the Healer's abode.” I tried to stand her up from the bed. She was quite heavy. I've never had a reason to do this until now. Together and with aid from Darius who was almost as strong as myself, we walked towards the door, out of the room, and were leading our way through the stairs, a hard task that scared me more than any other thing. “My lord. Hold her well.” He knew I was beginning to get tired. I gripped Annora
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 152 - The Safety
ANNORAOur arrival was a success. Instead of a wicked welcome, members of The Stormbringers Pack welcomed us more than well. At some point, I looked in the direction of Aegon to be certain we had not walked into a trap. “Welcome home,” the Luna said. She smiled as she was seated at the extreme end of the room. “We didn't know how to come to you after everything that happened between you and your father, Annora. One thing you must know is that I never was in support of what he did to you.”How would I know? I nodded, heaved a sigh, and watched her. “How have you been since his death?” I asked and looked around. “How about Lila? Isn't she supposed to be around? Did she leave the pack?” I didn't know what to think and so I asked. “She'll be here shortly.” Aegon nodded. I did the same. There was nothing more I knew I would say, so I leaned with my back on a chair I had grown up seeing. “There's a lot we have at hand before my wife puts to bed.” He began. “One of them is coming over
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 151 - Back To The Past
ANNORAA week later, after Sora was kept in the dungeon, I had gotten over her and everything that happened even though there still was a sting. There was a plan. It was taking over the Stormbringers Pack. Aegon had suggested it and on second thought, I was supposed to be the next Alpha and Luna since the late Alpha was no more. Today was the day. I woke up in my new bedroom, my new home and looked at the other side of the bed. Aegon had left the room, or maybe he was in the bathroom but I didn't know. There was a lot to do rather than sit and think so I jumped to my feet and walked to the entrance of the bathroom. There and then, I could hear sounds coming from inside. “My lord?” I walked back to the bed. “Are you in there?” I took a seat and looked at the time before looking at the closet when I recalled I had yet to select an outfit for this trip. “I'm here, my lady.” He was there. Getting ready. We didn't have much time on our side and I understood that. By the time Aegon
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 150 - The Real Truth
ANNORA “Wh—what?” The words that came out of her mouth shocked me more than anything. What did she say to me? Did the woman standing before me recall I was the same woman who should be her best friend? “You heard me right,” Sora chuckled. She walked closer and moved farther from me the next time. “You don't want to know how much hate I have for you, Annora. You don't want to know.” “What's going on?” “A lot. A lot you don't know about.” Now it dawned on me. It dawned on me that this woman could be guilty and that Wendeline was right about what she said. How could I not believe Wendeline at this point? I did before now but with doubts, if not because of anything but the trust I have for Sora. Looking up, I asked. “You did something with Kairel, didn't you? Wendeline was right about it, wasn't she? You wanted Kairel to kill Aegon. Did you know about his plans to create a war?”“Why not?” Sora laughed. She looked around the room before facing me again. “Why wouldn't I have known
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 149 - Confrontation
ANNORAIt was three weeks since the wedding and then the coronation when Aegon announced to me that I would need to move into the royal quarters. Since the event, without moving into the royal chambers, there has been no sort of respect I didn't receive from the members who did not hesitate to show me their good side. Before the wedding, there was no such side from them, and I could not blame them. I wasn't married to the Alpha, at least not yet and there was no need to waste their time showing me a side I didn't know existed, not until now. What more could I ask for? This morning, I woke up in a room that won't be mine any longer; not when I was moving into the Luna chamber and from there, the chamber where myself and the Alpha will live, a chamber that's his. A chamber that's mine already. Someone knocking on the door woke me up from my thoughts. I looked up to notice it was Sora. She was the only one who knocked that way on the door of my room. Without any hesitation, I snappe
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 148 - The Leave
WENDELINE After a few days, I walked out of my room with a smile on my countenance. My legs walked through the hallway. I reached the living room in moments. Everyone who passed by me looked in my direction, greeted me, and walked away. I reached a couch and was seated in moments, relaxing my nerves as I let the feeling of home sink in. It was beautiful, beautiful to be here. But it didn't change the fact that I was going to leave. Yes, I was going to leave soon enough, before the end of the week and if not this week, next week. “Good morning, my lady.” “Good morning,” I looked up at the maid who was standing before me. “How are you today?” “I'm very well, my lady. I came to know what you would love to have this morning. The Alpha told me a while ago that you're awake so I am here. What will you love to eat, my lady?” I thought about it. What would I love to eat? “Anything will do.” I relaxed my back and sat up. “Anything will do,” I said again to the woman who bowed and tu
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 147 - Notice
ANNORAThe good feeling that ran around inside my belly. Wendeline's return was good news to not just me, but the Alpha and everyone in the Pack. As soon as Aegon finished changing, he walked through the door that would lead him into the hall, a smile on his countenance. He caught up with me and we kissed even without the priest's permission. Why should we care? Tears did not fail to gather in my eyes. There were just so many thoughts that ran around in my head and one of them was what could have happened to the man I loved so much. If not for the intervention of the woman who made me poison him once at a stage of my life. Crazy. Very crazy. The world itself was a crazy place and I could not wait to be done with the wedding so that some time could be spent with Wendeline who needed to tell me what had happened so far since she left us in the Pack for wherever she went. “Does anyone have anything against the union between Annora and Alpha Aegon?” My heart started to beat. Anothe
Annora: The Alpha's Prey, Beta's Obsession 146 - Home. Sweet Home
WENDELINE “That was smooth.” I walked out of my hiding place. “Hello, brother.” The Alpha only moped at me as though he had seen a ghost and I could not blame him. “You're not going to stand there and act as though you've not seen your sister who has been away for long.” My words caused him to move closer. Tears gathered in his eyes. Whether it was the tears of seeing me or being the winner of a challenge between himself and a man who should be his friend, I didn't know. But I knew deep down inside of me that I was happy to step into the picture and save the man. “I am so happy to see you, Wendeline.” He hugged me. I hugged him back. Tears ran down my face as well and we let each other go moments later. “I'm glad you're okay, Aegon. I'm more than glad the man did not touch you.” And to think that he was ready to die. What did he mean by that thing he did? Why did he allow Kairel to take over? What did he mean by allowing Kairel to kill him? Why would he ever d
