STEPHAN

“C’mon, how long do you plan on leaving me hanging? You are the one that said let’s stay in for drinks and now you are neither drinking nor are you saying anything,” Claude was looking intently at me and frowning.

I sighed as I met his gaze, “I have something to tell you.”

He leaned forward in his seat, “Go on then, let’s have it.”

I paused.

I had run the thought over in my head way too many times till the point that I felt like I was crazy, now I needed external input.

“There is a slim chance…”

“Mm-hmm.”

“That Rebekka might actually be my mate.”

Claude erupted in a loud laughter, tilting his body back and kicking his legs up in the air.

I smirked as I looked at him, “Did I say something amusing?”

He sighed deeply and looked at me, the laughter was still in his eyes, “What have you been drinking? I would love a bottle of that too.”

“See, this is why I didn’t want to tell you, you were never going to take it seriously.” I complained and leaned back in my chair.

    18 – FRUIT OF THE POISONED TREEREBEKKAThe next day, things were rowdy at the clinic, it looked like a fight had broken out in one of the local pubs because lots of drunk low-borns flooded the lobby of Dr Purcell’s clinic.“Rebekka!” Dr Purcell called.“Sir!” I answered running down the stairs and smoothening the fabric of my dress.It looked like it was going to be a busy day today and on days like this, I usually missed my chance to eat and I hated that.“Fetch me some warm water,” he said.I nodded and took a stainless basin and ran to the kitchen and got some water from the central heater put there specifically for that reason and then I ran back and placed it by his side.Dr Purcell was dealing with a nasty head injury sustained by one of the men, without intervention, that low born was never going to heal fast enough to survive.“See to the people crowding the lobby, look at their conditions and assign numbers to them based on priority.” Dr Purcell said without looking at me, h

What is this?” My voice was shaking with panic.“It’s like I told you, you would suffer some lingering side effects,” Dr Purcell repeated.“Oh my goodness,” I covered my face with my palm and crouched low, near the ground. I could not believe that Lord Stephan saw me in such a state, I must have looked pathetic. So very pathetic. Whatever attraction I imagined he had for me would have evaporated by now.“Doctor, is there nothing you can do?” Lord Stephan’s voice was controlled and firm.“I’m sor

I didn’t care if he was an elite guard or an elite ass, I had indulged his disrespect for far too long.Damon too had paused in his stride, he was also listening to what Claude just said.I turned back to look at Rebekka, she sat there looking scared out of her mind, her beautiful face covered all over with boils.I had to admit, even seeing her like that, I still thought she was beautiful.I looked at Damon again and then I made for the door.“That’s the blue-eyed Damon?” Claude asked as we made our way back to the pack house.I nodded wordlessly.“I should have known that he also had something to do with that Rebekka girl,” he added.I turned sharply at him, “She has nothing to do with him!” I exploded.Claude jerked away from me, “Chill man, you ar

    21 - SPOTLESSREBEKKAIt was starting to look like there was an upside to having your face covered in boils. I was left the hell alone.Dr Purcell and his daughter, Kaitlin did not disturb me at all and allowed me the necessary time to heal.It wouldn’t exactly look good if someone who had boils all over her face was busy around the clinic attending to the needs of patients.Despite the sordid state of my face, my heart was in an even worse state.Stephan had smelled Damon on me, I was very sure of that. The only saving grace was that the scent was not distinct so he could not place it.Why was he that angry? Did he want me?I could not fully understand him. The other day when he came to me in the cleaning room, I felt that we shared a genuine connection and bond.What did I know? All my life, I had never known the affection or touch of a man… Until Damon and Stephan.My mind drifted over to Damon, the passionate look in his eyes when he said he was mine.

This was stupid.The boy was going to get himself killed.What experience did he have that would allow him to succeed in this mission? Well, if nobody was going to say anything about it, fine by me, I would hold my peace too.I smirked as I looked at him.Stephan was so desperate to prove himself that he just eventually signed up for his own death.In a bid to become a more worthy heir, Stephen would end up dying and leaving the pack heirless.A small smile crossed my face, that indeed would be a delight to see, I was not going to miss it for the world.That was the only excitable thing that happ

You should have requested more men.”I eyed him, “What are you trying to imply?”Claude sniffled and kept quiet.“No, go ahead and say it.”“Stephan you know as well as I know that the Elite Guards are the best of the best, it makes sense to send only five.”“What are you trying to imply Claude, I want you to say it.”He sighed, “They are all combat tested and have strategic skills that you lack.”I arched an eyebrow, “I lack?”“C’mon, don’t give me that look.

Was he a merchant of some sort?No, what was I saying, he told me that he was trained as a pack guard.I recalled the uniform and the mask that he was wearing when he saved me from those thugs. I had never seen any pack guard dressed like that before.I made it a point to ask him and find out what he actually did for a living when he comes back from wherever he went to.I found myself yearning for him and wishing that he hadn’t gone so quickly.Why did I shy away from him when he came over? What is wrong with you Rebekka?Why was I acting as if I was not interested in his touch?I remembered how hard I blushed when he stroked my cheeks. The thought caused me to smile.He said he was going to teach me to fight. Me?The thought excited me and scared me at the same time, was that really necessary?He said that whoever was after me might try again to hurt me so it was necessary but then the idea that someone

I was being watched, I could feel it.I frowned, the pair of eyes that were on me didn’t feel human.I resumed walking, causally on the outside but very alert inside, my eyes were scanning the hill ranges for any sign of my watcher but I could not spot it.Whoever or whatever it was, it was skilled in stealth, but I knew, sooner or later, it was going to show itself.The sun was already hiding itself

I blinked as I felt the soft rays of the sunlight filter through the curtains and hit me.What time was it? How long had I been out of it?I strained to sit up, my body felt very heavy like someone was sitting on my chest. I took my right hand to the side of my head and then brushed it over my face.Peeling faces, very crimson eyes!These two images flashed through my mind and I suddenly became alert, all the lethargy leaving me.I jumped to my feet and ran barefooted to the mirror at the side and looked into it, I let out a breath of relief.My eyes were back to the old nondescript color. But what happened? Last time, they were very crimson, just like…“Lord Stephan!” I yelped suddenly and then cupped my mouth, afraid that someone might have heard me.It was all coming back to me now, I had just escaped the thugs Lady Vanessa sent after me when I had some sort of

She came down there to supervise his demise but she never planned to actually face him.That was the whole point of a well calculated ambush. How did everything go wrong? Why didn’t Damon inform them that he was coming?Was he in on the whole plan? So many thoughts were running through

He never liked the old man for one day, why was he here pretending like he was hurt?“His weak ass should have retired months ago, he got what he wanted,” I said.Vane gave me a sharp look and then his face turned dark with a frown, he shook his head, “Could you not be a normal person for once? Would it kill you to show some sympathy?”I sneered in his face, “Would it kill you to stop pretending and kissing ass all the time? Could you not show your true self for once?”A low growl escaped Vane’s throat as he glared at me, I could see the visible effort he was putting in to control himself.“If I were you, I would be careful how I talked, the Chief is not around to keep you safe any longer,” he said and then looked away from me.I grinned, “That’s more like it, say things like you mean it, life’s more fun that way.” He looked back at me and then he

I could not see it. Just a second ago, before her monstrous transformation, she licked her bloodied nails.If she scratched me with mere nails, I should have effortlessly healed from it but the fact that I wasn’t healing meant that she used silver. Where was it?If I didn’t know, I could not recklessly attack her again, I could end up dead. My heart was thumping in my chest, this was terrifying and at the same time exciting.As wolves, we loved to fight, it was our nature and ever since I was little, I had been fighting but as I grew older, the fights grew easier and easier until it didn’t feel like a fight anymore.That was why I was so stunned by Damon, he was the first wolf who I had ever met that was able to really hurt me

It was littered with the corpses of both witches and Elite Guards.“How many casualties did we sustain?” Vane was asking one of the officers.I was just absent-mindedly paying attention to their conversation, my thoughts however were fixed on how alpha Michael had easily evaded my trap.Did he know? Once again I didn’t think so but then again, it was hard to explain what had just happened here.“Sire, no survivors and the Wolf Killer is not among the dead,” another officer reported.Baylor was not here… where could he be? Still with Lady Cecile if I was to guess, what about the Old Crone?Stephan had been sent after her. Did he succeed in getting her or was there still a chance that the ambush could happen?I realized that I was just doing wishful thinking to keep hope alive and I hated it. But I was not wrong,

I sighed, all I’ve wanted since he came here was to rock his jaw with my fist but I was scared of doing that in front of the alpha.Damon’s whole plan was to make me look bad in front of the alpha, I could not give him the satisfaction of success.“What else but to shoot his mouth off,” I said.“I don’t know why you tolerate him, if I were you, I would have fucked him up a long time ago,” Claude said.I chuckled and then became serious, “We have a new mission.”“Oh c’mon,” Claude threw up his hand in frustration. “Can’t we catch a break?”“It is from the alpha himself,” I looked at him.Claude stiffened and became serious as he met my gaze.“That’s what I thought… gather the rest of the squad immediately, I’ll brief them.”He ran off.Not long after that, Claude, Flint, Louis and Hayes were all gathered round

If the Supreme Mother came out of hiding all the way to Dragon’s Foot then it was likely that she had somehow found out that he was here.If that was the case then allowing herself to be sighted was done to lure him into some sort of trap. If West was where she wanted him to go, the west was definitely where he would not go.It had been a long time since he had been out and actively involved in a hunt like this but his senses had not dulled one bit. He knew Dragon’s Foot better than most, he had explored the shit out of the place in his younger days.By studying the map, he had guessed where she could possibly be if her plan was indeed to set an ambush for him in the west.If the commanders were as good as Chief Tyrell hyped them up to be, they would have no problem handling the witches

Alpha Michael had managed to fuck me in the most unbelievable way possible and now I was left holding my balls in my hands.I got up from the tree trunk that I was sitting on and looked at him, “If I were you, I would stop baring my teeth and lock in.”“Yes sire!” he saluted and then ran off.I sighed, I was not going to give up that easily. There were still witches lying in ambush in the west. As long as we walked into that ambush, I was sure that I could find a chance to take out the alpha.This would have gone a lot better if the damn Old Crone and the Wolf Killer were in the loop and knew what our plan was.I could not believe that right now I was needing the help of the wolf killer of all people. He was good at what he did, with him at my side, I would feel a lot more confident taking on
