"Miss Milburn, aren't we paying your twins a visit?" Kelvin asked, going into her room. He handed her a glass of tea and slumped on the couch beside her."Not anymore." She replied, sipping on it leisurely."But, Karen, I've bought flowers and everything we needed for their anniversary." Harriet complained about coming from the bathroom with a big bag on her hands. It had flowers, sweets, and a strawberry cake too. Her twins' favorite cake was the one with strawberry flavor. "Earlier, I went to the palace to plead your case, Harriet. But what I heard shocked me." Patrilia said."What did you do here?" She asked while sitting beside him."I heard Alpha Cameroon telling his men to rush to the cementry because a spy had reported that Karen Milburn would be going there in the evening to celebrate her parent's and twin's death anniversaries." Patrilia told them."What?" They gasped in unison. "But how did the spy know about Karen Milburn's arrival to the pack?" Harriet asked."It seemed l
Alpha Rasmore couldn't believe what he had just heard. Was Karen Milburn included in the Strawberry Pack? When did she show up? Where was she staying, and how was it that no hotel had reported her arrival to him? He had made it clear that the moment anyone spotted her, he should be told directly. "What the fuck?" He yelled, throwing a glass of water against the wall. He tore his fingernails apart and didn't care. Blood rushed through his veins and clogged up in his muscles.He signed heavily when he saw his father burning in anger. He was outside the palace, assigning the guards to go and attack her. He wanted her in his grip. Alpha Rasmore contemplated whether he should tell them the truth or not. No one was aware that he had Karen's stepsister in the dungeon waiting for her judgment day. He was waiting for the perfect time, and it seemed like the perfect time he had been longing for was there.There was only one thing he was afraid of, and that's why he had never told anyone about K
Karen Milburn chuckled as she flew high among the clouds. She giggled, shaking her wings in a playful manner, earning gasps from Kelvin and Patrilia. She was already in her dragon form. When the palace guards arrived at the forest to check the cause of the spreading fire, she was left with no choice but to shift and take her assistants along with her. They had settled on changing their names, but they lacked enough time to register their new names in the registry book. Harriet only proceeded with clearing their names from the lodge. Now anyone looking for them would get the response that they had checked out.Harriet had given the date and time of their departure. She didn't want anyone to question or suspect what they had done. When she first heard Kelvin and Patrilia asking Karen Milburn to fly them to another place, she cried so hard that she lost consciousness. She couldn't believe that Karen was leaving her again. She cried, begging to be taken along with them, and Karen had to b
No one could believe what they had just heard. Karen Milburn was gone? How, when, and where to? That was the question that Alpha Rasmore threw at his beta the moment he brought the news."I am so sorry, Alpha Rasmore." Where she has gone is something that none of us can figure out. I think we should wait a few more days. She may come back again. He offered advice, resting his head on the sofa's headboard. "What about that b*tch I asked to be brought out here?" Alpha Cameroon asked the guards. They both sighed and lowered their heads. Where were they going to start at? The bitch had escaped, and none of them wanted to break the news. They thought it would be better if he found out by himself."Where's the goddamn bitch?" He thundered, his knuckles turning ash white. "I want her out of here; don't you both get that?" He asked, storming furiously towards the dungeon. With one kick, the metal door broke open. He had asked all the guards to gather in the pack's hall because there was some
Kelvin and Patrilia trailed behind the invisible figure as he carried Karen away. Where they were being led was something they couldn't understand, and neither of them was courageous enough to ask that person."We are going to a cave not far from where you guys were at." The voice answered their unasked questions. The person was reading their minds.They sighed in relief when they arrived at the cave. It looked like a cave from the outside, but it was a nice, cozy house from the inside. The cave was filled with expensive-looking couches, a huge flat-screen TV pinned to the wall, and a glassy table supporting a huge green bow that was holding apples of different colors.Their hands collided as they both reached for the apples to munch on them. The voice chuckled at their behavior, and they all looked away, embarrassed."There is no need for you to be shy." "I'm sure Karen would have done the same if she wasn't unconscious." He laughed, carrying Karen to the inner room."The kitchen is
Military dogs barked as they trailed around the forest, led by the palace guards. It had been five hours, and almost everyone was tired. The deputy military general asked his general that it would be better if they let the dogs rest. Because of the pressure they had been given by Alpha Cameroon, the dogs were taken back to the van for a rest while the guards continued with the search."It had been eight hours since we started searching for that godamn bitch, general Levi; do you think we will find her?" From my own point of view, I'm sure we can't. "We have been going round and round, and at this moment we are standing at the very spot we started from." The deputy general pointed at a huge tree in front of them."I know. And I can see we are back to our starting point. "But nothing important comes easily, right?" He asked, calling the guards for a short nap before embarking on their search again. Not far from where they were resting, a woman in her mid-thirties, wearing a maroonish pi
"That was the worst day of my life." I was so tired of my life that I didn't wish to spend even a minute inhaling this air. I desperately wanted to re-unite with my mother, father, Haiven, and Vaihen. I really miss them. My poor little sons, I will never be able to erase their calls for help when that monster threw them in that fire. I will never forget the helpless gazes they gave me when I failed to rescue them from that pit. "And I will use every breath in me to avenge." Karen's empty voice said from behind, jerking the two figures watching sitting on the couch.She had woken up long ago and all that while, she was standing behind them, letting herself travel on her past as well."Are you okay, Miss Milburn?" Kelvin asked, jumping into her arms like a small boy."I am Kelvin." "I hope the two of you are doing well as well." She said, turning around to check them out, and was satisfied when she found out their wounds had already dried up."Karen, I may say I didn't expect you to rec
Alpha Cameroon gritted his teeth and glared hard at the group of press sitting in the living room area. He couldn't understand how information about Elinda Milburn's attack was leaked to the media. He has forbidden everyone in the palace from telling the reporters what has happened, but it seemed like there was someone in there who had problems controlling their mouth. That person couldn't even be able to hide the pack's secret. "Alpha Cameroon, have the guards succeeded in tracking down the monster?" One of the reporters asked him. Lacking patience to answer all their questions, he started searching for a better way to shoo them all out of the palace. "I'm really proud to see you guys working hard." But right now, I think all of you have lost your minds, and you all really need to go for a check-up." He said this, and they all gasped, wanting to know why he was insulting them. "I am not insulting any of you." "Because I am sure some of you want to know why I threw that insult, but
Ana's dad's reputation was completely destroyed. When it was revealed that her daughter, who he had been telling people she would marry Alpha Rasmore soon, was the one behind everything that had happened in the past, even those who had forgiven him and even promised to return everything they had snatched from him to pay their loans, refused to do so.They even threatened him, saying that they would throw him out of the house if he didn't pay back the few dollars they were still owing him.On the other side of the palace, Peter and Patrilia had locked themselves in a room and had no idea what was going on out there. They were busy enjoying themselves and they would be obviously shocked when they would come to realize later waht was going on.Harriet had gone round looking for them hoping that she would find them so that they will also be there and watch as Ana's head will drop in embrasment in front of the whole world. After all; they had all wanted the same to happen to her.If it were

Elinda stood at the door, her hands akimbo, waiting for Ana. Due to the voice-tracking devices she had planted in her hair strands, she was waiting for her to come and lie on her face. She had once asked her not to build high hopes on her getting a chance with Alpha Rasmore because it was not possible, but she never heard that advice, saying she was a jealous freak. She had laughed until she ended up rolling on the floor when she overheard her conversation with her dad over the phone. She was excited when she saw her father tripping in with the other elders, and she had even packed up her suitcase, saying she would be moving into Alpha Rasmore's room when things were finalized. She kept on taunting her, saying she was cursed because she would be the only girl at the palace without a partner. Since she was not in the mood to argue with her, she simply asked her to mind her own business and leave her alone. "Hey Ana, how is the progress?" She asked her the moment she walked in. Because
Rasmore was woken up by Hashmuk, who told him that the elders were there to talk to him. He groaned, turned on his bed, and went back to sleep. Hashmuk, who thought that the elders were there for an important meeting, quickly took his shower and decided to attend the meeting on his behalf. He found the elders sitting in groups of two, discussing in low voices. They both jerked up their heads to look at him with confusion written all over their faces. "I am sure that you were all expecting Alpha Rasmore, but he is out to finalize a business deal," he lied. There was no way he was going to tell them that their alpha was still asleep and had refused to attend the meeting. He cleared his throat and then said, "If there is any problem you are facing, then you can all discuss it with me." "Trust me, I'll make sure that Alpha Rasmore learns all of your needs when he comes back," he said, sitting on the chair. The elders didn't say anything, but they kept staring at one particular elder who
Harriet was walking along the corridor, going back to her friends, when someone sneaked up from behind her and covered her mouth with his rough palm. She tried wriggling herself into a fight with that person to let her go, but her struggles bore no fruit. She was dragged into a room where she couldn't see anything because her eyes were partially covered and the door was closed behind her. Her heart races, thinking that maybe she was abducted. Behind her, a distant voice chuckled, and she just clicked, waiting for that person to let go of her. She was pushed roughly on the bed, and she knew what that was going to be. "Sonnny, seriously, did you have to kidnap me?" "You could have asked me to come with you," she complained. "Would you have come, huh?" I have been trying to talk to you since morning, but what have you done? "You just keep on flicking that tongue of yours at them and then running away, so obviously, this is the only way I could get you," he responded, taking off his bib
"Have you two made up?" Harriet asked worriedly the moment Patricia and Peter walked out of the room. She sighed in relief when Peter walked out after Patricia and then held his hands. She gasped as she looked at them, wondering if Patricia had told Peter about his feelings. "Yeah, I have confessed my feelings," Patrilia admitted, as if she had read her mind. He spoke shyly."And?" Harriet was eager to know. "Peter, what was your response, and how did he confess?" She asked, squealing like a fangirl."He wanted us to be fuck buddies, but that's just impossible," Peter said, chuckling."I thought he had confessed, like he really loves you; I didn't expect him to ask you for a fuckbuddy deal," she pouted, folding her hands under her boobs."He did confess his feelings, but there was something he was wrong about." Peter cleared his throat, and when Harriet raised her brows in confusion, he explained, "He asked me to be bed buddies with him because he thought I wasn't in love with him." H
Pat stirred in his sleep, turning to face the other side. A cold substance touched his wrists, and he jerked up, struggling to flutter open his heavy eyelids. Something soft and ticklish trailed down his chest and stomach and then touched his shaft. When he opened his eyes, Hashmuk was sitting between his wide-spread legs, and he sat up, blushing profusely. He tried to pull the quilt over his nakedness, but Peter bit him because he grabbed all the covers on the bed and threw them away."What are you doing, Peter?" He asked. Peter, who was determined to get what he wanted, kept ignoring him. "Lift your hips, pretty boy." He asked him. Pat blushed as he struggled to untie his legs from his tight grip. "You will be hurt, honey." Just lift your hips. You don’t need to be shy. "You did that last night, didn’t you?" He winked. Kelvin averted his gaze, embarrassed.The echoes of his moans and all the activities of the previous night echoed back to his eardrums. "Shit, did I beg him to fuck m
At the dining room, the atmosphere was mixed. It was gloomy for Patricia but normal and interesting for the others. When Harriet volunteered to go and ask Peter to come out for breakfast, Patricia was happy, thinking that he would agree to Harriet's request, but he didn't. He lied to Harriet, claiming he wasn't hungry and would eat later, but he did so for him.He sighed for the umpteenth time, digging his fork into the food but never eating it. The food was suddenly bland and had no taste. Peter in his room kept on sighing, not able to hold his frustrations any longer. He slept on the bed, staring at the ceiling."Why did I do that?" he asked himself, turning on the bed as if all the ants in the world had come to be his bedmates. "Why did we do this, pal?" He inquired of his wife, who was deafeningly silent."Great, that's really great of you," he yelled at his wolf. "You always push me to do such things and then go silent when things worsen," he said, clicking loudly and roughing his
After Harriet was done taking her shower, she wiped her body with another towel and retreated back to the room to dress. After getting dressed, she was supposed to run to her friends and tell them she had spent the night at a boyfriend's house. After they were done playing cards the previous night, Sonny dragged her to his room without telling her friends. When they awoke to find her not in her room, she could tell they were worried."Aren't you going to take a shower?" She asked Sonny, who was still sleeping on the bed. "You said you have something important to do; has it become less important now?" She chuckled, picking up the light blue summer dress she had earlier chosen from the floor. When Sonny yanked it from her hands, he threw it away, but luckily, it wasn't dirty at all."This is the first time in my life that a girl just used me and left me unsatisfied, you know," he said, sitting on the bed."Can't you touch yourself to orgasm?" "Isn't that what you men do?" She asked, win
