Chapter 55

Selena's POV

The ocean was breathtaking though I remained a bit afar off, for fear of the large waves. The crashing dance of the large waves was almost hypnotic.

Asher stood next to me, a small smile on his face as he watched me. The wind caressed my skin but mercilessly ruffled my hair, the long minutes of brushing it down was wasted in no time.

Lily stood aside, setting out the food and drinks. Amidst the noise of crashing waves and howling winds, there was a serene calm that came with it, like the winds whispered words of comfort until you couldn't think of anything but the spellbinding effect of your surroundings.

Asher's phone rang loudly. It was a bit surprising because we barely received any calls out here. The ringtone was shrill, unlike his usual ringing tone.

"Excuse me", he threw me a small smile before walking off. The moment I was about to continue staring at the ocean, I caught his hand pulling out a small flip phone, like a burner.

    Chapter 56Selena's POV Focusing on the voice, I began to make out their words. They were in a discussion about some mark which apparently was a big deal. So why was my name called?"Are you absolutely certain?", Asher asked the faceless guest. "Yes sir. I didn't report earlier because I needed to be certain. The Red werewolves are rare so it was unbelievable at first. But I'm sure", the guest replied, his voice a tad bit deeper than Asher's. "But Selena's an omega", Asher sounded confused. "How can you tell me she's a Red werewolf?"I felt my heart stutter in fear. I'm nothing but an omega, what was all the talk about Red werewolves? Red werewolves were myths, at least I used to think so. They were basically spoken of in fairytale books, never in historical facts. Everyone believed that Red werewolves were too good to be true, they even rivaled Gammas, at least the books said so.

    Chapter 57Selena's POV "Where?", my voice held the same weight of desperation it felt. "Are you certain?", I asked. "Yes. Very", Lily kept her fingers on the spot. "There's no scar, no mark, not even a single patch of discolored skin except here", she tapped at the spot. It was right after my shoulders. With her fingers still placed securely on the spot, I twisted, trying my best to see what she was referring to. Lily rolled her eyes at my actions before she reached for a hand mirror, passing it to me. Placing it at the right spot, I twisted, my eyes finally catching the scar. It was like a raised bump, the jagged outline of a crescent moon virtually made out the outline of the scar. "Oh Goddess", I exclaimed. "What's wrong and why are you so suddenly interested in your body?", Lily questioned bluntly. "I mean, not that you don't care about your body or something as bizarre""Lily, I think I'm in really huge trouble", I confessed. "Why do you say that? Is everything okay?",

    Chapter 58Selena's POV Lily and I exchanged a confused look. "Were you expecting someone?", she questioned. "No. Besides, who would find me all the way out here?", I asked, pushing the chair aside as I stood.Lily trailed after me, curiosity in our minds as I tried to silence the voice mentioning a certain name. It couldn't be her."Selena", the voice called out right on cue, causing me to groan. "Is that Cecelia?", I rhetorically questioned. Lily turned to me, throwing a shrug. "What would Miss Cecelia look for all the way out here?"Her question was valid but I was also aware that Asher may have ended things with her, so she had every reason to come for my head. Lily pulled open the door and just as expected, Cecelia stood outside, her hands crossed tightly over her chest. "Cecelia", I greeted. "Would you like to come in? It's chilly outside."With an annoyed huff, she took a step in, glaring at me for extra measure. Cecelia took her sweet time walking, as her eyes inspected

    Chapter 59Axel's POV "What on earth are you talking about?", I faced Cecelia. Since she had found out about Asher's marriage, she had been hovering over me like a desperate bee, and my patience had been waning. "Please. You have to help me.""Cecelia. I'm Alpha of this pack. I don't have the energy to deal with something as frivolous as your love life", I frowned. "Asher made his decision and I honestly think it's time for you to live with it too.""Come on", she whimpered. "You like Selena, don't you? Then help me. If their marriage breaks, I can have Asher to myself while you can take Selena. I don't care what you do, just give me Asher", she clutched at my shirt. I sighed, running a hand through my hair. The thought was appealing, in fact, I would've jumped into the idea willingly but without forcing Selena to marry Asher, she had walked down the aisle with him, willingly. She preferred doing that than waiting a little while longer for me. She had a choice. And I really wasn'

    Chapter 60Selena's POV "Were you just speaking to someone?", Asher questioned, his brows furrowed as he watched me. "No. That's quite silly of you to say. The network here is terrible, remember?", I forced a smile on my face. "Right. My bad", he raised his arms in surrender. "I thought I heard you speaking to someone""You heard wrong", I corrected. "What's up? Do you need me for something?""Not really. I just wanted to apologize", he entwined his fingers. "Apologize? What for?", I asked, frowning. "It's my fault that Cecelia came here. She was out to get me and because of that, you were pulled into the crossfire""What? Of course not. You fell for me, I'm honored", my words left a bitter taste in my mouth. I wasn't in any way honored that he found me intriguing just because of the new wolf status I had acquired. Asher was a selfish bastard and I wished I could punch him or curse him out but it was wiser to stay quiet and make him believe he was still in control while I was st

    Chapter 61Selena's POV I'd been watching Asher carefully to ensure he was not planning something crazy. I didn't trust Asher, not one bit, especially after finding out he was nothing more than a selfish prick whose only aim was in finding a way to use me as some means to an end. I had thought carefully about it, putting myself in Asher's very sticky shoes. If I truly was a Red werewolf, the great status I held would never be taken lightly and as such, he had the assurance of a quick elevation in his status as well. Since he was my husband. It was a smart move, even I had to admit. And I realized how much I'd waved off Asher as no one more than just an arrogant jerk, but he was cunning. "What are you thinking so intensely about?"he asked me, smiling. I couldn't help but dissect the way he smiled. It didn't quite reach his eyes. "Oh, nothing. I just miss the bustle of the pack house. It's not as lonely as this place", I admitted, pouting. I had decided to drop not so subtle hin

    Chapter 62Unknown POV Cecelia slid against the door, her butt landing painfully on the hard floor but she could barely register the pain, too absorbed in her thoughts. Her heart ached, so terribly that she'd gladly trade physical pain for the one she was currently experiencing.She clutched at her chest, squeezing tightly for a bit of an assurance that she was still in her reality. It was difficult to swallow, almost impossible, as a huge ball was lodged in her throat, painfully pressing against her skin. The waterworks hadn't even begun, and she felt it might never stop once it began. She took a swig of the bitter alcohol, and another until the taste had her gagging. This was the only way she'd be able to escape from the hurt and betrayal she was feeling, this was the only way she'd heal. A sob finally escaped her lips but that one trail of a single teardrop soon turned to two, until she was full on bawling, the sobs racking her body violently. Amidst her sobs, she felt ashame

Lily was at my side before I could say 'Jack'. "Come on, you need to get up", she squealed in excitement, pulling me up even amidst my protests. "What in the goddess name has got you in such a cheery mood?"I yawned, taking me time to stretch properly. "A very good news which I'm certain you'd be excited to hear", she grinned. "Go and take your bath and come down", she urged, ushering me to the bathroom. With another groan and a few more protests I finally caved, trudging to the bathroom while muttering to myself. I had stayed awake last night, thinking of ways to protect myself from Asher. It was even more difficult than I originally thought as not a single idea crossed my mind. "Aren't you done?", Lily called out. "We're waiting""I'm coming. Gosh", I answered, shutting off the shower head b

    Chapter 140 Axel's POV I walked out of the pack house and into the expanse of land now littered with my pack members. They were in little groups, talking amongst themselves in hushed whispers. When they noticed my presence, they immediately fell silent, looking up at me with expectant faces. The last time I stood before them, we were on the verge of making the most important decision of the pack. I've never felt so much appreciation for that day than at this point. More and more werewolves gathered and I leapt onto the elevated stage, facing them. "Night Reapers, it has come to my notice that the pack, Blood Red, has fallen." The whispers rose once more and with a lift of my hand, they were silenced. "You've seen the commotion outside the gates. Those are from the survivors of the pack. They've come to us for help", I paused, surprised that no one said a word. "Now, I bring the decision to your table. What do we do?" The question spurred them into action, some yelled that

    Chapter 139 Selena's POV It took two months and five days before we heard any news about the packs. Technically, we heard news of progression and the added advantages the alliance offered to those packs, virtually every Alpha was involved except ours. As far as I was concerned, we were officially cut off. The strategy put in place by Axel worked. We had food, water and basically everything we needed within the pack. It made things considerably easier. No one complained and as days passed, more werewolves came forward as volunteers. Soon, we extended our little plan in agriculture to other aspects, like furniture making, fabric design and then, no distant time I was setting we were making waves. Orion and Zephyr were growing up quickly. Werewolves always had a weird aging style. We grow up quickly, then remain almost dormant before we begin aging slowly. Lily's presence was difficult to come by. She was mostly invested in Blake and I'd be honest when I say that their relati

Today was the day we were expecting the Alphas and to say the atmosphere was more than tense was an understatement. Axel had come clean to the pack, revealing the details of the visit to every member. He also told them about his decision and gave everyone the chance to either counter his decision or agree with him.Most of them agreed, the few that thought it was reckless were soon convinced that Axel was making the right choice. He gave them his reasons. Then, the topic of how we were going to generate incomes for ourselves even after we cut ourselves off from the other packs arose and Axel gave them the stellar idea on agriculture. The farmers came forward, pledging to give their all while some volunteered to help. By the time dawn broke, we were prepared. As prepared as we could be. "You ready?"

It was a miracle it hadn't leaped out of his hand and to an unlucky person's face. "Can you let it go, honey?", I coaxed. Orion stared at me with a sad look. "But why?", he whined. "It can be my pet."Except, werewolves don't keep pets. Our wolves were like pets, but on a way deeper level. It was part of us. "No. It can't."We were in a staring contest for at least thirty seconds before he finally gave in. "Whatever", he tossed the frog aside and it landed right on Lily's lap. Before I could react, Lily let out a loud scream. It echoed throughout the clearing and was just about to tear my sensitive eardrums.

Axel and I focused on nothing else but ourselves and the kids. We had a family day out, of course Blake and Lily decided to tag along and we held a little picnic just for ourselves. Truth was, it was inevitable that Axel would have to give his reply concerning the alliance bug for now, it felt much better to simply live in our own bubble. Orion and Zephyr were bickering on the color of the sky while I lay on the blanket, my eyes shut as I basked in the warm sun. "I can't believe you", Lily was speaking, throwing a punch at Blake. I could tell when he muttered a low 'ouch'."It's serious though", Blake was trying to say. I had tuned out of most of the conversation and the one I had managed to catch snippets of didn't make any sense. I pried my eyelids open, scanning for Axel as he had been awfully quiet. His back was turned to

    Chapter 135 Selena's POV "What?", I echoed, the sound loud enough that it bounced off all the walls. "An alliance?" Axel expected my reaction as he barely even reacted to my shrill. I'm certain I had alerted at least half of the staff members. "I thought so too", Axel stated blandly. I rifled through my head, searching for anything that made sense. An alliance between werewolves is nearly impossible, if not completely. That's the reason why it didn't happen, ever. It was way too risky and if not careful could cause war between packs. If Alpha Boris was proposing an alliance and the rest of the Alphas agreed with him, he was either very stupid or desperate. But, what for? "An alliance is...impossible." "I thought so too", he echoed, and I threw him a glare. "Are you even listening?", I asked. "Yes." But I co

Their eyes scanned the crowd for a few seconds before they resumed their walk, soon standing in front of Axel and I.If Axel felt nervous, he didn't show it. His face was set in a stiff position as he watched them in return."What a pleasant surprise", he stated, his voice anything but pleasant or surprised. One of the Alphas chuckled, his eyes twinkling in amusement. "Thank you, Alpha Axel", he bowed, a motion which can barely be considered a bow but sufficient enough to pass as one. "What brings you here?", Axel asked, his brows creased as he stared at them all. "I wasn't aware of your visit.""And yet...", the werewolf gestured around him. "There's an entire group waiting.""Information tends to reach us quickly."The werewolf seemed more amused than offended as

I was just being silly. Before Blake could answer, we heard the shuffling of feet outside the door but the thing is, there was more to it than just the occasional movement. They seemed more than panicked. Lily, Blake and I exchanged confused looks before we hopped up, rushing towards the door. My mind drifted to the kids first, knowing Axel would be able to take care of himself. "What's happening?"Blake asked a maid rushing away but she seemed to be too much in her panicked state to realize who was

And I hope you'll suffer for as long as possible for the penance of your wickedness.
