Nora's POV“Edward, now's not the time.” I answered, feeling incredibly stressed about the amount of will that this Beta had. Even though I had stabbed her with the truth serum, she had refused to give in to me.Throughout the years, I'd made a few experiments on werewolves but this woman had to be the most strong-willed amongst them.“This woman is so pretty, what a shame she's dead. I would have made her one of my concubines.”“You only know how to be frivolous towards women, you're good for nothing else.”“Woah woah woah, now you're taking this a little too far. It's not fair. I've been doing quite a share of my work. You don't have to mock me like I haven't been doing anything reasonable because I have! You know what, nevermind.” Edward said, folding his arms.“I'm going to revive her back.” I said, caressing the Beta's cheek.“Oh no,” Edward said with the roll of his eyes. “Just let her die in peace. It's not like her consciousness will be revived with her, she'll just be like a
Alexa's POVI paced to and fro in my office, feeling my neck tighten with every breath that I look.Alpha Nate watched me from the chair he was sitting in but I ignored him altogether.“If you are this going to be worried about your Beta you shouldn't have sent her for the task, and so quickly for that matter.”.-3 said.“The deed is already done. Zaria North has gone into battle so let's just hope everything goes well and that she comes back safe and sound. Oh, I really hope she comes back safe and sound. I'm already beginning to miss her so much. There's a lot of paperwork to do and she usually helps me filter out the unnecessary ones for the day, giving me the time to focus on the important ones. No one can ever be like her in that regard.”“Well, on a positive note. If she does manage to come back alive, you should make things easier on her and reward her well.”“I will.” I said. “What are the number of things I can reward her with?”“There's a lot. It could be land, gold… anything
Alexa's POV“Father, Mother. Next time, I'll face the shadow Wolves with my warriors.”Mother gasped, “How is that possible?”“It is. I want to be strong for my pack.”“Then If you must go to war, we'll go with you.” Father said, looking at mother for reassurance and she nodded.“No, father, mother. Let me do it. I want to be a strong foundation for Deep into the woods, if I go to war for their sake, it isn't that bad.”“Of course you're right but we can't let you go alone because its too dangerous. Apart from that, you are way too young to go to war.”“Yes,” mother confirmed. “I understand you sending Zaria North because she's way older than you but you yourself are important to the pack. As that very important figure, you should be very aware of your position. Don't take any unnecessary risks. That's what the warriors, Beta and Gamma are for.”“I don't care about the hierarchy decorations. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter much. What matters to me is the safety and well-bei
Alexa's POV“You're dismissed.” I told her and she turned around to leave. I sighed and continued to work in my office while thinking about Zaria North and her straightforwardness. If I did have to say it again, I would. She was a little too strict for me and not in a good way. I really hoped she would relax soon and be just like she used to be before.Even if that did not happen, I would support her to the best of my abilities.That was how strong and capable I qualified myself enough to be. Even if Zaria North cofounded in her newlyfounded stubbornness, I would be the one to bring her out of it, or maybe Arthur would get ahead of me and be the one to snap her out of it.Arthur's POVI was ecstatic that Zaria was back and I couldn't bring myself to hide all of the happiness that I was feeling within me.“How do I do this?” I murmured to myself while pacing around my office to and fro. “How do I make Zaria North like me again? Even the Alpha supports me going after Zaria. How do I do
Arthur's POVI did some work with the few minutes that I had left and once it was 4:30pm, I took a chunk of money from my office drawer. There was no way I was going to let Zaria pay for anything on our date, although I did knew that she would bring her own money and that alone was laughable in my own perspective. I would never let Zaria lift a single finger to pay for anything on her date.I went to Zaria's office and then knocked.“Come in.”Her voice was soothing and calming. I exhaled and then opened the door revealing Zaria. She was sitting behind her desk looking through papers.“I don't understand why you're working hard after just coming back from war.”Zaria shrugged her hands. “it's not the Alpha's option. She told me to get some rest but I prefer working.” Now that sounded like Zaria.I hesitated, not wanting to push her away with my words.“I know you prefer working, Zaria. But would you please go out with me? It would only take one hour.”“Sure.” When Zaria North answere
Arthur's POVHowever, I did not even have the time to convince her because she snatched my truck key from my hand and stormed off.The waiter came over with mine and Zaria's food.He placed it on the table and smiled at me but I couldn't bring myself to smile back. I brought out some money from my pouch and handed it over to the waiter.“Sorry, this seems to be more than enough.” He said after receiving a lot of money from me.“It's okay. Pack up the food in a takeaway bag and send them to me.”“I see, sir.” He said and I nodded, feeling bad about how I'd just ruined my date.Once the waiter was back with the takeaway items, I grabbed it from him and jogged outside only to see Zaria North pull off with my truck. I could only sigh.It would be a long walk back then.“How do I manage to get her to stop being mad at me after I got back?I could only wonder.As was strolling around the marketplace, I saw a fish green necklace.“Come and buy come and buy, good store bought necklaces. Good
Arthur's POVI hesitated at the warrior's words but then I agreed. “Fine but you better make it quick.”We walked outside and then the warrior began to speak.“Gamma you're not going to believe me when I tell you this but the Beta is dead.”I froze up immediately, “What do you mean? Zaria is clearly alive.”“When we were at the battle front, I was trying to find a leeway so I hid somewhere and found the Beta get stabbed by some woman who I'm guessing is a witch.”I felt ridiculed by the warrior, how could he say such words? It didn't make any sense at all. In my opinion, Zaria was just mortified by going to the war front which was why she was probably acting weird. There was nothing wrong with her like I was thinking.“Look,” I told the warrior, “Don't say such rubbish to me again, if you do, I'll report you to your superior.” I said and started to walk away. The warrior gave me a sad look. “B-but,” I could tell that he wanted to say more but I ignored him.“Gamma please wait a bit l
Arthur's POV“Go get my new mother, father. I am telling you.”Tears of joy streamed down my face and I suddenly felt like things were coming together for me.“Oh, you're such a cute little…” I walked over to my son and pulled him into a hug. From now on, we would finally have a family. No more would we be divided or treated in isolation and most importantly, my son wouldn't have to grow alone. He'd have a strong woman to be his mother. I wondered if Zaria North would be pleased with me enough to take my son as hers. I really hoped she would.“Thank you so much, son.” I said. Him speaking to me almost gave me like the strength to continue to push on and to never give up.“I'm grateful for you, my son. I really am.”“Alright, that's enough.” My son pushed me away from his body after a while. “I'd rather continue painting than let you embarrass me with a hug. “You should also spend the extra time trying to court mom rather than get emotional with me in my room.”I pulled away from my so
