The Alpha King laid in a coma for days after his surgery. His mother was worried out of their senses for him, while investigating exactly what had led him into the sorry state he had been found in and was still currently in.Wolves were found and wolves were interrogated, but nobody seemed to know or was ready to talk about what had happened to the Alpha King, especially as all the wolves who lived there were afraid of the powerful Rogue King. They knew that the investigation would finally end and they could heal from the injuries and threats, but that nothing was going to save them from the wrath of the Rogue King if they ever ratted him out to either the cops or the seemingly powerful people who would not just leave them alone.His mother sat beside him on a sofa placed beside his hospital bed, looking down at her unconscious son with her heart hardening and her soul darkening from the anger. The lay
Despite having been interrupted by Doctor Anderson and having had to watch the Alpha King get escorted back to his room, I was determined to find where his room was, and to meet him and have a conversation with him about his offer to me. I tried countless times to leave my ward and go in search of the blue eyes, but somehow, the stars of fate just seemed against that pursuit. I pretended to be asleep and waited until the room was empty and the hallway was silent. I tried to keep my head down and roll with the boisterous crowd of people during visiting hours. I covered my hair and camouflaged my body in clothes I managed to steal from the janitor's office, but no matter how crafty I was or how witty my plans were, something or someone always happened at the last minute to thwart my plans and render my efforts null and void. I needed freedom to be able to wander to different wards in search of the Alpha King, but the hospital staff were either too nosey or too efficient, because they
I opened my eyes in raw fear, hoping that the light in my face was actually just from the light switch in the room, and not the light from sun filtering through the windows. Apparently, I had cried and thought so far into the night, that I had slept until it was fully sunrise outside. I could here that someone was knocking on the door. Isat up abruptly, still trying to get mysekf I order. It did not matter that it was morning though. I was not owing the hospital anything, so I could still leave. The only problem I had was that the likelihood of running into or just seeing Doctor Anderson again was very high, and that was what I wanted to avoid at all costs. "Good morning, Miss. Did you sleep alright?" The cleaner at the door said merrily as I opened up the door, looking very unhappy to see her and not at all in the mood or shape to hide it. "I slept." Was all I could say in reply to her as I walked into the bathroom and shut the door behind me, not even looking back to catch her re
The security guards lifted me easily outside the hospital's premises because I was light, and I was not even fighting, because fighting would have been completely useless in that situation. These were very large wolves, and I was just a cursed teenager who could but even shift. As I stood outside the hospital gates thinking of my next course of action, I heard the receptionist calling out to me from the gate. She had spoken to the security personnel and lied that I had not signed an extra document, just to get me back into the building. The security men escorted me back into the building. The receptionist folded some money and a note into my hand fast and secretly, and I did not want her pity especially after everything I had just said to and about her, but at the end of teh day, I still needed to survive, so I had to swallow my darn pride and take the money. The security men escorted me out of the building again. As they passed by a particular room, a strong scent hit me, that had
The drive down to the Alpha King's castle was mostly quiet. I laid my head comfortably on the leather seat, trying to not get frozen in place. I thought about whether or not the Alpha King's mother was going to like me. I thought about it for long and hard and I did not even know when I fell asleep.I woke up with a start when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I opened my eyes tiredly and found that my head was on the Alpha King's chest. He had even covered me with an extremely soft and lush furry blanket. I sat up immediately, feeling really shy as he reached out and gently wiped the drool from the side of my mouth. "I am just really tired." I explained, in reply to questions nobody had asked me. The Alpha King smiled kindly, and told me that he understood. As the guards held open the door and I stepped out of the car, "I hope I did not snore too loudly…" I said, actually feeling more like a teenager than I had in a while. The Alpha King walked over to where I was, laughing lightly. "Yo
The maids came in to help me with my hair, dress and light makeup. Since I was going to be meeting the family for the first time, I looked in the full length mirror in the room allocated to me, and I did not recognize the girl whose sad green eyes looked back out at me. My reflection showed beauty and class. Sophistication even, with the dainty way I held my manicured hands. But my eyes held sorrow. I noticed how much change had happened to my entire existence in such a short period of time. I was still only eighteen years old, but I looked so much older to myself, and I was sure that it was not the makeup. Trauma had indeed aged me. As it was a team working all at once on me, I was ready and on my way down the stairs to the dining room in roughly twenty minutes. I let the small tail of my silk dinner gown trail beautifully beside me as I descended the stairs slowly and confidently. I had already decided on the shower that I would fit in here or literally die trying. When the guard
I stood close to the beautifully plush sofa directly opposite the large TV set where Attus sat. "What are you watching?" I asked, even though I knew that I would not know the show or movie if he mentioned it. My parents had been very particular about keeping me away from screens. The TV in our own mansion ahd been mostly for guests and Becky, before she became the favored of the clan. My mother always use dti say that addictions should be formed in adulthood, not from childhood and it had never made sense to me as I grew up to hear it severally from her. "Just this new series I have wanted to see for so long." Attus answered, not once taking his eyes off of me. I smiled. "May I join you?" I asked, and he gestured quickly for me to sit. "Of course, Clara. You are a part of the family now." He said, as I sat closer to him than I had originally intended. But after my body sank in and I felt the warmth of his body on mine, I did not want to have to bring myself to move away. "I'm sor
I looked boldly and angrily at the Alpha King as I arranged my nightdress slowly; menacingly. He looked a tad bit uncomfortable, but the amusement on his face and in his eyes; that insufferable carriage and arrogant swagger, pissed me off more than anything else in the entire world. "Is that it?" asked, shaking from the surge of adrenaline in my body. "If all you wanted to do was to strip me naked in front of your entire family, should you not have at least told me about it so I could be prepared?" I asked, hating the fact that tears were welling up in my eyes and blurring my vision. Attus stood up then, mumbled some unintelligible words, and walked uncomfortably out of the TV room, leaving the Alpha King and I alone. "If it is not apparent to you that stripping you just now was a mistake? You might really just be as daft as u have always thought." He said coldly, staring me up and down with disdain. "Maybe that is what you wanted anyway, to show your damn tits to Attus!" His word
