Chapter 35: Sleeping With The Enemy Ander I honestly thought I would regret killing her but I never did. Whenever I see Charles swimming in agony, it gives me joy. It always gives me incredible feelings of pleasure. I don't think I would ever regret what I did to iris. Killing her was one of the greatest things I could ever achieve this year. And trust me, just the same way I killed her, I will kill Charles too. His mate. Watching him lead everyday Made my skin crawl in anger. I just want everything he has to be mine and if I can't have it, it's better none of us would have it. And as usual, I never fail to show my sympathy and care about Iris to him. I didn't want a situation where he would suspect me. Heavens was really on my side that day, and luckily Iris happened to fight with someone that very day she was killed and that was how the innocent lady, who was a warrior, was framed as the culprit behind her disappearance. When they saw she wasn't ready to confess, they killed
Chapter 36: Werewolf festival IRIS Everything happens so fast. Just like yesterday, I had just been saved from death,and it turns out I was pregnant with a twin. A boy and a girl. Nine months later, I delivered two of the most beautiful creatures you could ever see. And today there were seven. Seven years without knowing the foolish man that put me in such a position in the first place. Seven years without knowing my identity or knowing my real pack. All my life I have been stuck here. Afraid to explore the world and other packs. I was afraid. I'm afraid whoever that tried to kill me still could be looking for Me, wanting to see if I'm all so they could strike for the second time. Today was Aiden and Addison's birthday. They would be clocking seven years today and trust me, Mrs. Imelda threw a birthday party for them, something I could never do as their mother. It was as if the moon goddess knew what I was lacking so she sent someone like Mr. William and his wife to my rescue. I
Chapter 37: The Alpha And The Bride Iris In a few seconds, my head throbbed in pain as the feeling disappeared after, making me feel empty. As if I had lost something important. “Aunt Iris, do you have a crush on Alpha Charles?” I burst into laughter at her words. Which sounded so hilarious to me. “No Barbara. I don't even know this man. I don't think I have ever seen him.” I said crisply. “Good!” She responded with a deep exhaling breath. “Trust me, Alpha Charles isn't what you think he is. I heard he killed two of his pack members two days ago. We should be praying he wouldn't kill any of our pack members because if that happend, it would be hard to wage war against him.” Barbara said. I can't wait to see and know who this Alpha Charles is. I have been hearing people talking about him in this pack but I never put a listening ear. But with these little details Barbara gave me, I should probably stay away from someone like him. “Please don't forget to show me when you see him a
Chapter 1 : BREAKING FREE IRIS I sprang out of bed the moment I felt cold liquid pouring onto my body. My eyes locked with those of Luna Caroline, my master, the one who bought me and brought me back to this pack. Her eyes were terrifying, scaring the hell out of me. I quickly knelt down and bowed my head in obeisance, trying to soften her anger. “Good morning, ma'am!” Raising my head to look at her, I received a thunder slap across my face. Instantly, tears pricked my eyes and threatened to fall, but I gulped them down like a pill. They must not come out. I must not show my weakness to her. “I’m so sorry, ma'am. Please spare me.” This was her way of waking me up every morning if she got up before me. Her way of reminding me that she brought me here as a slave and maid rather than as a family member who could sleep peacefully without being disturbed. “Don’t let this happen again, Iris. I won’t hesitate to throw you out like an animal,” she uttered her usual words. With a s
Chapter 2: MATE IRIS Waves of excitement ran over my body as I began to hear the footsteps and sounds of them walking away one by one. Alpha Carson and Caroline had left for the mating ball, which was organised by them. But I was still worried about one person who hadn't left: Cole. He was still in the house; I could feel it. I knew he wouldn't have gone without hearing from me. And that's to tell you how much he cared about me. After a few seconds, I heard footsteps approaching, and I quickly detected them as Cole's by the sound. "Iris, are you there?" Just as I had thought, he was still around. "My father is gone now, so you can open your door and come outside. Don't forget to come to the mating ball; who knows, you could find your mate." He advised and retreated back, sensing that I had no plans to respond to him. Since he had been standing there for a few seconds before turning away, I felt relieved the moment I heard the sound of the living room door being shut. "He
Chapter 3: REJECTED AND ACCEPTED CHARLES Right in my presence, my father declared his intention for the next Alpha position. He made a rule that whoever found his mate first, between me and my brother would be the next Alpha and the coronation will take place in five months as long as one of us found our mate. Now I must say that's one of the most difficult tasks my father has given us. The first challenge he gave us was a war challenge to determine our strength and knowledge of handling things. At the end, I came out first and now this? What if my junior brother found his mate before me? I'm twenty_two years old and I haven't found my mate yet. Sometimes I just feel like I have been cursed. Most people find their mate at the age of sixteen and eighteen , and here I am, over twenty. Throughout the entire day, I was occupied with lots of thoughts and when the dusk was setting in, I decided to go for a walk. To cool my head before returning to the pack. The moment I stepped i
Chapter 4: DELUSION CHARLES I couldn't stand Cole maltreating her any further, so I had to teach him a lesson for insulting my mate right in my presence. I'm certain he didn't know I was Charles, Alpha Henry's first son. If not, he would have given me that respect. I had no choice but to accept iris. Even when I wanted to reject her, I couldn't; my wolf urged me to accept her, which I did and the next thing she did was fall down. She fainted right in my presence before I could even say a word to her. I understand she must have been so exhausted from everything that has happened. As a slave Omega, I bet , her life must have been a living hell. I knelt down, then touched her pulse which was still responding. I touched her heart and it seemed to be breathing slowly. I felt so relieved knowing she was Safe I placed her in my arms and took her home. When I got there,it was already late. There were two Gumma wolves at the border, which seemed to have been waiting for me. Because
Chapter 5: PROPOSAL CHARLES Her question left me dumbfounded and bewildered. Just when I had thought she was naive, she proved me wrong. She was smart enough to ask me those questions. “Since you demand to know the truth, then I shall tell you.” What's the point of keeping it away from her now? It's better to open and let her know my intentions. “I didn't pity you like the others. I only found you not worthy to be called my mate.” I corrected her on the part where she said I pitied her like other people, which was a spurious word. Just like you asked, “why did you accept me when you knew that I'm not at any of your level?” “That's because I have no choice but to accept your iris. My father made a rule between me and my brother that whoever found his mate first would become the next Alpha, and I don't want to lose…..” “So you're trying to say that, you'll use me for your own selfish benefit and when you're satisfied, you shall dumb me? ” She interrupted me with disappointmen

Chapter 34: Her Sister Daughter Charles Dropping down the glass cup in my hands, I strugglingly stood up from the chair I was seated. My breath reeked of alcohol. I have been taking two glasses of black label, until Alex came to disrupt me. You must be wondering why I'm doing this to myself, to be frank, I just want to drink away my pain and forget everything that has happened. Is it possible? I doubt it! But for a while, I just want to be happy and not feel pain. Gradually, I made my way out of my room, heading to the sitting room where my guest was seated. Indeed, it was truly Caroline. Why's she here? If I could remember, they suffer iris, my mate when she was serving them as a slave. So was she here to mock me now? Like her husband would do. “Thank you for accepting to see me!” She said with an appreciative tone. “Go straight to the point. Why have you come? Are you here to mock Me?” I snapped at her, my tone firm and steady. “No,no!!!” She objected. Nodding her head sadl
Chapter 33; A Strange Named Melody IRIS “Dear, we found you badly injured near the edge of a mountain cliff a week ago. It seems like whoever was behind it pushed you down and you fell. But it's a miracle you were able to survive.” The woman explained, I blink my eyes anxiously. Just pondering what would have happened to me if they hadn't found me. “You should be lucky you're alive. I've seen a lot of people who fell down from those cliffs and died instantly.” The woman's husband added as I stared blankly at the ceiling.“When we found you, you were badly hurt ,so we rushed you to the hospital. Fortunately, your babies were safe. They were actually the ones that protected you from dying.” A shiver of unease gripped me as those rolled out of her mouth and echoed into my ears, forming a lump in my throat. First of all, what's she talking about and who's pregnant? Secondly, even if I was pregnant, why's she using the words “they” instead of “him” or “her?”I am perplexed. Lost and
Chapter 32: Burned Truths And Blank Minds Charles If I had known that day would be the last time I would ever see my mate, I would have held her tight to myself. I would have spent every second with her. I'm afraid she must have been killed by the enemy. And then probably buried by the enemy. There's no way she would have run away like my father said. He assured me to calm down, that I should give Iris time and she will come back to me but I don't think that was true. Iris would never run away from me. Ever since I fell in love with her, I've treated her with care, there’s no reason she would have left me. Today, Brooklyn would be executed in front of everybody In the Pack. She would be hung in the air and tortured. Even after all the pain z she had refused to tell us the truth but I know deep down Brooklyn was behind her sudden disappearance. “Do you really want to do this?” Ander shrugged at me as they brought Brooklyn forward and tied her to a large round wooden post, where sh
Chapter 31: Looking For Iris Charles “Again!!” He stretched the chains and wiped her with it. So hard that she fell to her toes. “Again!!” He wipes her from front and back. Not minding if it was touching her eyes, or any sensible part of her body. I needed her to feel some pain Within her, before she would be questioned so she would know the right answer to give. “I promise never to disrespect her again, Alpha. Please forgive me!” She murmured with a shaking breath, her body trembling tremendously. I signal him to stop wiping her the moment I saw blood gushing out of her mouth. This was what I wanted. Her pain, her screams. I wanted her to know and feel the unforgivable crimes she had committed by insulting my mate and fighting with her. Not only that but for thinking, she has the mind to conspire against me in this pack. “Tell me, where's she? Where is my mate?’ I bellowed at her and her body quivered more in fear. She was really terrified, which I like.Brooklyn, the female wa
Chapter 30: Her Disappearances IRIS “Do you know I can fucking kill you right now?” He threatened and all I could do was laugh. “Well, if that's the only way you would feel better, then go ahead.” I shrugged at him and I could feel him boiling in anger. He tightened his grip around my body more. “I hope you forgive me in the afterlife for what I'm about to do. All I ever did was to love you. And if you had reciprocated my feelings back, I wouldn't have been triggered this far.” He yelled out, like someone who was about to commit a deadly sin, which I doubted. I'm sure he was just threatening me and nothing more. Would he really Push me off this cliff? No! Of course he loves me enough. You can't love someone to the point of killing them right? “ And I'm sorry about it, if that was how you felt.” I do understand him. It's not easy, seeing someone you love loved somebody else instead of you. It's quite painful. Finally, he removed his grip from my neck. his two hands were still on
Chapter 29: His mission IRIS What exactly could be wrong other than helping Ander? I mean, he wouldn't kill me would he? Perhaps if I could return this favour to him, we would remain cool again because I missed our friendship and everything that had emboldened us together in the first place. So I'm going to do everything I can, to help him out of that place, even if it means disrespecting Charles for the first time or going against his rules. I know he might probably hate me when he finds out what I have done. But I believe with time, the anger Will go away. The weather was changing slowly. Checking the time, it was around (5:30pm) for a few seconds, I was confused if I should go or not. But my wolf declined about me going. She was badly against the idea of me going but I have no choice. This is my only chance of proving to him that our friendship is still intact and I haven't forgotten all that he did for me when I was in such a situation. I went over to my room, checked my war
