~Zenaida~Tears suddenly fell from my eyes as I heard those words from Audrey. She just mentioned to me that I looked like my mother's father and I've realized a lot of things. My mother and I didn't have a nice relationship. I haven't felt the love that a mother should pour to her child. All my life, I was like a slave who followed orders from them. She never defended me when dad beat me up. Mom didn't take good care of me when I was sick and just let the maid do their job. She doesn't support me when I make achievements and most of all, she wasn't with me when the Red Moon Pack wanted to kill me.All this time, I reminded her of her father, who she hated so much that she thought he didn't care about her. All the questions in my head were now answered. I thought I wasn't their biological daughter because of how they treated me. Perhaps, they were just being so rude to me because I reminded them about my mom's father. The Alpha who didn't give the pack to Ailani, my mother.And it hur
~Zenaida~I stepped back when a group of men entered the room. My heart started pounding so fast when I realized that these men in front of us were not part of Ares' men. On the other hand, I felt Ares' men beside me, trying to protect me from them.“Are you Ares' wife?”One of these men started asking me. I can't stop swallowing my saliva thinking what they want from me.“You are not allowed to come near us. Alpha Ares will not show you mercy!”I heard those words from one of my husband's men. They are trying to stop them from getting near us. However, the enemies seemed deaf. They started walking into our direction with a smirk on their lips. I know I wasn't trained enough to fight, but I will not allow them to stay close with us. I will not allow them to use me against Ares. Maybe by fighting back these men, I could already help Ares.“We are not scared about your Alpha. We need her and no one will stop us from getting her!” They ran into my direction. I just froze in my position
~Zenaida~Beta Stephen told us that they already found the body of my aunt not far from the village. She's dead already and it really made my heart shattered into pieces. I can't stop crying for my aunt's life. I just can't imagine that she would be gone this early. She hasn't given another chance to reconcile with my mother. Aunt Audrey died so early.The Moonlight Pack lost their Alpha already. Ares already found out those men that attacked my aunt's pack based on what the wolves said who lived here. The pack has an enemy from the neighboring pack and they are the reason for the attack today. Worse, Ares found out that the one who attacked the Moonlight Pack was also one of his allied packs. It suddenly angers me because my aunt's life was taken. That pack has to pay for killing her as well as for killing those innocent wolves because of their attack.We buried the body of Aunt Audrey. Darkness has finally arrived and we decided to stay the night. Ares was planning an attack for the
~Zenaida~I was looking at him, my eyes seemed shocked upon what I had heard. The way Ares told me that I was already his weakness brought so much confusion in my head. It also fears me because once the enemies find out about it, they would never hesitate to use me against him. Ares has to know that it's time for him to teach me. It's time that I should learn to defend myself. This way, he doesn't need to worry about me that much because I already know how to defend myself. Enemies can no longer touch me because I also have acquired the skills just like Ares.It's also a great help for Ares because he doesn't need to worry about me when enemies suddenly appear in front of us. All he can think of is the pack. As long as I could, I am willing to risk my life to protect his people, to protect the place who accepts me, and fight for the pack who gives me another hope.“Just teach me everything, and you will have nothing to worry about, Ares.”Ares took my hand and pressed his lips against
~Zenaida~ No one expected that I would come out from the car, not even Ares. He was in shock from what I did which made him unable to do something as the enemies turned their attention on me. They began hissing while their eyes on me. I know they are going to attack me but before they do that, I did prepare the gun.The enemies began running to my direction but before they could even come near me, I started shooting them, all of them. Ares and his men went back into fighting to help me beat these enemies. I never imagined that I would be able to conquer my fear when it comes with killing. If I was still the same as before, I probably passed out now when I saw blood but the moment I saw how they attacked Ares made me forget that I have fears. The thing that I was thinking from earlier is to save him. To help him beat all the enemies who dared to get on his way and this is what I am doing now.We are able to beat all the enemies and no one dared to fight him. The rest of the men from t
~Zenaida~My head nodded to agree with Ares. I can't take my eyes off those enemies who are still alive after they surrendered under Alpha Ares. It still confused me about their origin. I know that no one dared to attack Alpha Ares because of his superiority, not unless these enemies didn't know about Ares.“What if they didn't know about you?”All eyes turned at me from what I've said, even Ares. He was already furrowing his brows while looking at me.“That's even impossible, Zenaida. Everyone knows Alpha Ares.”I let out a deep breath from what Stephen had uttered which I agree with. How come enemies don't recognize Ares. He was popular to all the werewolves because of being the Alpha King. I don't think enemies didn't know him. There might be other reasons.“Just don't think about them. The important thing now is that this pack is in good hands now. I will leave my men to guard this place not until I have chosen an Alpha to lead this pack for a moment.”I can't stop but to nod my h
~Zenaida~Ares was talking to a girl. A girl that is not familiar to me. They were so close with each other that they almost kissed each other. I don't know but seeing Ares talking to a girl made me in so much pain. They were just talking but the impact of it almost made my heart shattered into pieces. As I saw him laughing with her as if I didn't exist, it seemed painful. I should be the only one that he was laughing with. Ares should not talk to other girls aside from me.What's more painful is the fact that Ares didn't even notice my presence. I was already standing in front of him, in front of his men. Stephen, who noticed my presence, suddenly told Ares about it. Ares immediately moved from the girl's side to approach me. My heart was fuming with annoyance but I did all my best to pretend that I wasn't affected from what I found out.“I woke up when I realized that you haven't come back in the room yet.”Just because I was still annoyed by the thought that he was laughing with ot
~Zenaida~As I looked into his eyes, into Ares' eyes, all I could see was love. Ares won't hurt me and my heart knows that. My heart knew that there's no way he would hurt me because he promised me. I am holding his promises and will look after it for the rest of our lives. We're now married and it doesn't matter how it started. All I cared about is what we've felt for each other now.“Stop thinking that I will hurt you, okay?” Nodding my head, I smiled at Ares. He kissed my forehead and we entered the room. Ares let me rest on his shoulder as we lay down on the bed while my heart was pounding so fast because of it.“We will go back to the pack tomorrow morning.”I looked at Ares because of what he said with my furrowed brows.“What about the enemies? What about my aunt's justice?”I just can't allow that I haven't given my aunt the justice she deserved. We are not going back, not until I saw with my own eyes those who killed her. Her death will not go for nothing. I will not allow t
