Happy reading!
RalphIt was faint and dispersed in the wind but my high sensitivity still caught it. I bet Brian also caught it because he eyed me suspiciously and I looked away.I didn't want him asking me any questions because questions about her were not questions I was ever open to entertain. "Who?" Brian asked and I ignored him looking out the window. We had left all the glasses down so we could easily pick up the scents that we were hunting down like the advanced hounds that we were.It was going to take Brian and I nothing to wolf down the smell but we needed to put our emotions in check and chose to ride in the vehicle with the rest.No matter how strong an Alpha wolf was, one mistake was all that was required for him to meet his end and our enemy was still anonymous so we couldn't underestimate the power of his might or army."Are you going to just keep quiet?" Brian probed me for the information harder."An old..." I paused not knowing how to describe my relationship with her.Lover will b
RalphMaybe she wasn't heading the team at all. I knew how to get information from Lizabeth even if I was drunk or asleep and drunk is one point I never got to.As werewolves our liquor capacity was high and as an Alpha it was almost impossible. "You are pained that she is smarter than your entire team aren't you?" In as much as Lizabeth was ratting her team out, I couldn't divert their attention and let them believe that we also did know where Aurora was.It was a strategy I learnt a long time ago. Don't let your opponents see the division on your end even if you were at war within. "The last thing I'd ever be is pained because if I was in charge calling the shots, I wouldn't rely wholly on some silly information given by some silly woman with peanut brains and no emotional intelligence to read basic signs. I'd have a plan B most Definitely but not these empty skulls." From her tone I could tell that she was pissed and I was finally convinced that she was not in charge.So who was?
Lizabeth I needed to act fast. Suspicions were rising and everyone easily looked at me since I was the only possible one to rat them out and communicate outward. Adrian was not on any of the teams.I hadn't seen him in weeks."Something is not right, we can't reach Zendaya," Natalie came over to inform us."Magic, I bet Seraphina already switched sides. She licks the ass of whoever is willing to pay or blackmail her." I shrugged as I voiced my opinion. "She doesn't have a need to be on our side, she has her daughter thanks to that Alpha." Natalie spat out in disgust. "The same Alpha that might be heading our way."Natalie panicked at my information. "Hell, you can't be serious." She was stunned and visibly pale but I wasn’t kidding. For a few seconds, it felt like a staring competition with Natalie staring at me hoping to hear that I was pulling her legs or making a bad joke but no way that was happening with the deal I just struck with the devil Alpha.I'd rather be dead than scr
Lizabeth "You just addressed him as your Alpha." My self appointed rival or hater remarked.Hell, Ralph was still my Alpha but there was no way I was telling them that."You have heightened senses, surely you heard me say Ex," I placed a hand on my hip and pouted at him."I think we should hear her plan out at least we'll hold her as bait if they try anything funny." Natalie said.Really now? Were they really thinking Ralph will give a rabbit tooth about whatever happened to me?I played victim and threw my hands up in agreement. "Fine, if that makes you sleep well at night if we survive the attack from Ralph." I said putting fear in their beings.No one objected me again and I swung into action explaining my plan."How many routes lead here? Who knows this forest very well?" I asked for guidance because I was lost in the middle of no where for all I cared."Three," the same man that had countered me before started to speak as he explained all the routes and we marked out the first p
Lizabeth Every traitor had a price and the truth was if someone could betray their own pack, then it was only a matter of time before they betrayed you as well. I learnt this so I acted loyal to my love for Ralph to get them to trust me.We were set to leave in a couple of minutes and I heaved a sigh. I hoped Ralph was a bit close so I could at least get a chance to see his handsome face again and remind myself why he was a worthy price in this game. "Make me a deal," I had said to the man who I learnt his name was Kevin."Don't Kill Ralph even if you hurt him a bit. Take your damn bitch and leave him alone." I had to fight for Ralph's safety because he was all that mattered to me."Why do you still want him alive even when he can't stand the sight of you?" Kevin had asked me and in as much as his questions had hit a nerve, I still managed to give him an answer."The heart wants what it wants. You are right to say we all are selfish and I doubt I have a place in your grand plan if al
Ralph"Damn it," I swore and kicked against rocks when I discovered they had gotten away.My mind was troubled. Did Lizabeth fool me on purpose? There was nothing in the camp, no lead to solving the puzzle after we unalived the few that were left behind and literally tumbled the whole place in search for anything at all."So where is your old acquaintance?" Brian asked walking up beside me, his hands tucked in the pockets of his pants.We had no need to shift and didn't even need Kristen to put the few we found in cold blood."She left with them," I said Was Lizabeth playing the game I thought she was playing? Was she truly trying to get information for me or was she simply using me to climb up the ladder?The latter was something she could very well do because if she could turn on them and rat them out to me then nothing stopped her from doing the same to me."Fuck you Lizabeth!" I groaned at the possibility of being fooled by her.I had tried to communicate with her severally but i
Zendaya I was strapped to an x hanging high up in the middle of a plain looking room and two people I recognized looked at me. I blinked severally and realized who they were."Where am I?" I asked Aurora who stood before me all the way down there with my supposed body guard Connie by her side."Welcome to hell honey," she paused "I'm about to turn up the heat." I knew I was quite delusional but Aurora seemed like a psycho the way she smiled and spoke maniacally. "What the hell?" I groaned when the x began to rise in temperature and it burned the fabric of my dress and my bare skin alike.What do you think you are doing?" I swore when the heat got unbearable and my every attempt to free myself only made the leather that bound my wrists tighter.Damn it. What sort of leather didn't get burned by this much heat?I bit my lower lip till I tasted blood and held myself from screaming in pain."Let's see how long you can hold up and how much heat you can take in tough girl." Aurora grabbed
Natalie"Do you think we can trust her?" I looked over my shoulder to see Kevin staring intently at Lizabeth. If you ask me, I'd say he has always had feelings for her and constantly sort an opportunity to get close to her but Lizabeth always kept to herself and never mingled with anyone. Matter of fact, she only carried out instructions, gave her two cents when necessary and stayed in her tent."I don't know," he shut his eyes, finally taking them off her after staring at her sleeping form since forever."Say something at least." I probed him further.Kevin was the one leading the troupe in Zendaya's absence and of our course in a way.He was my father's loyalist and never bought the idea of my father being killed, he saw it as injustice but he was too young to counter the Alpha’s decision both in age and rank.Kevin sighed and stared out the window. "What do you want me to say?" He looked a bit lost and I wished I could pick his brain for whatever he was thinking about. "I think
Aurora I watched the faces of the crowd go pale as they saw her head drop to a side and everywhere erupted in chaos as someone shouted. "A dead Alpha!" People stood to leave in a rush knowing the meaning of the very clear statement yet I watched closely. I knew they would come for her.The chaos and noise woke her from her slumber.It took her a while to adjust her eyes to the light but she eventually did and looked around frantically. I had let her sit freely without binding her to the chair so she could lead me to my target. 'Where is he?' I was in her head not as a mind link but as a torment perks of being the blue blood leader actually, I could invade their heads and get them to do my bidding but I rarely used my powers out of courtesy. This was one of the rare occasions. She held her head as if to silence my voice and jumped to her feet. On seeing this most people paused seeing she was alive."She's alive!" Cheers erupted so the ceremony could continue. "Please mount the podi
AuroraHe refused to tell me his name but I wasn’t interested in it, I was more interested in how he was able to numb his scent. "I don't know you, you have the wrong person." He said getting down from the bed to leave."Don't force me to get the information from you because I can and I bet you already know who I am." I stopped him."Just leave me the fuck alone. I said I'm not who you think I am."He was getting agitated, maybe he thought I was pulling his legs and trying to frame him like they had done his mum before he suddenly went missing. "Liar." I lifted his shirt to reveal the mark of my mother's bloodline .I had the same matk in the same spot."Do you still have anything to say for yourself?" I asked when he didn't deny further."What do you want from me? My past is buried." He looked sad and lost. I threw my hand around him and hugged him.He was much older than me but he had suffered a lot and I heard the stories growing up and only got to spend a few years with him durin
AuroraI had less than twenty four hours to either get it right or get it wrong, I realized my heart wasn't beating irregularly because I knew I was in full control yet still I wasn't ready for the worst to come."What are you going to do with her?" Connie asked me as she and Lyon watched the unconscious Zendaya lie in state."Wait, I'll wait for her to come around and snitch on us." I said actually meaning it.I needed her to regain consciousness and call for back up. I was going to end it all where it began. "Then?" Lyon was quite curious."Then the party begins." I told them"Alright now you're beginning to sound exactly as the Alpha would and that's wierd as fuck." Lyon cringed and I laughed but my heart was sad, I hoped the news got to him as well and he made an effort to come see for himself. "Do you think he'll come?" I asked none of them in particular. "I can't say for sure that the news will get to him given that he is not in his pack." Lyon shrugged. He was right, Ralph w
*Ralph*"I am least interested, my response is not changing. His nose flared and his breathing became labored. He looked different and I didn't push my luck since I was unaware of his abilities and dis.What had he done to himself?He had created a monster of himself with no remorse, he had definitely given more to his wolf side with the way he behaved animalistically on impulse. He was also cautious not to start the war first and I suspected that he still wasn't confident enough in his fortification. No matter the elements including magic, an Alpha remained an Alpha with the blessings of the goddess and several different other gifts. I needed to find Aurora and rescue Lyon, those were the most important things to me at the time. I returned with Kristen to where Brian held up with the rest after getting Annora to safety and I realized why Adrian was playing safe,He was already quite outnumbered seeing that we had two Alphas on our side.Completely exhausted I tried to communicate wi
AuroraIt took a while, lots of effort and all what not to get things out of Zendaya and surprisingly she had still not given me the answers I wanted.She had only given a silly condition for a bargain and I thought it quite fair."Just kill me because my tongue swore an oat not to disclose that information so I wont." She had boldly said that when I plucked her tooth one after the other with a plier and got my alibi to pull out her nails one after the other.A beautiful feel of satisfaction I got watching her writhe in pain but it wasn't exactly enough for me.Seeing the lifeless body of father had definitely brought a chill to my spine and blood, I had become cold hearted towards the parties involved and all I wanted to know was who was in charge.After much operations, Zendaya had offered to take us to the location. "Do you think we can trust her?" Connie asked me when I told her we were going to return to ny dad's pack and recover the seat of power since it was still vacant. Conn
RalphIt was like a movie where you watched lovers tear at each other's throats but what did I care?Adrian laid his bed and he was going to lie in it. Hopefully he was going to rest in peace with his father.I watched the tournament and observed Adrian's strength and weaknesses. He healed very fast, his speed was primal too and his attacks very accurate.Definitely, something had happened to him and I could see that he wasn't even fighting Kylie, he was just defending himself and pushing her away so he didn't hurt her until she found the dagger again."Good girl," I muttered as I saw her hand swing very fast before he could notice to stab him from the back as he laid on her trying to subdue her with his huge frame and weight.Like I said, his speed had greatly improved and in a split second, he rolled off her when he finally saw the dagger.I saw the look of shock on Kylie's face when his weight was lifted off her but she was already in full motion and she couldn't stop herself."Kyl
Adrian"I'm sorry." Kylie mouthed.I saw everything I stood for and fought for, fall to the ground but I couldn't rush in and pull out the stake to start treatment for him.It was a bloody scene, my Dad was still not close enough for me to trespass. I felt my head become light."Kylie why?" I felt a hand squeeze my heart tight that she of all people would betray me this much."Oh common, he's a prisoner charged with treason with a death penalty hanging over his head all this while. He was bound to die sooner or later." Ralph said smiling like the devil himself. I didn't see it coming. I knew had a devil side to him.Ralph had raised my hopes very high and taken me to a vulnerable state only to crash me at lightning speed with the worse thunder bolt; my mate.If it was someone else then I would have wasted no time to rip the person into two with the powers I had attained."I guess you can commend me for being a good Alpha now not so?" He paused and grinned like a child. "I have served
AdrianThe shock I received ran through to my bone marrow when my eyes fell on my mate Kylie, what was she doing here?I had picked her scent first but Ralph's blow had destabilized me in my distracted state and I felt the impact move me meters away but I was least bothered about that."Kylie," I called her name but she stood in her spot at his side. What a dirty game Ralph was playing, I knew him as a principled man and the last thing I expected was for him to drag my innocent mate into all of this."Addy, stop all of this please," she had tears in her eyes as Kristen held her hands to the back not letting her run into my longing arms."Baby I..." I lost the words, I could feel the bond pulling me to her, dampening all my vigor and lust for revenge Damn the goddess for such strong bonds of love that came with fated mates, love was the greatest force of attraction but I couldn't back down from my course simply because she asked, I had gone far deep and there was no redemption for me
RalphI turned and saw Adrian, well I was distracted by him so much so that I didn't pay attention to the petite lady that spoke to me first.He was truly standing there, my blood boiled in my veins as I recalled just how much he had betrayed me but something was off about him.He looked lost and drained, like a zombie maybe."Hello, Ralph." His voice was different too, I would have blamed it on magic but I already picked his scent from a mile away."Somewhere in my head I still thought that you'll be decent enough to address me as Alpha but I see that you already severed all the ties." I replied quite calm."There's not much to gain from given that I'm never going to kneel before you." "Bastard," I threw it at him utterly disgusted by his audacity. "More like the Ralph I know, calm doesn't suit you at all." Something was wrong, they had done things to Adrian and he had the look of a murderous monster in his eyes."Where's my mate?" I asked going straight to the point. "Your mate?"
