REYNA….
Once my eyes opened, I found myself in a dark room. It was quite scary that I couldn't look around, rather I shut my eyes.
How on earth did I even get here? Hours ago, I was hunting alone in the forest, and here I am, tied to a chair.
Since my fore limbs and hind limbs were tied together with my body, I couldn't make a move. If only the room wasn't dark,I'd have managed to let my eyes open.
But the room is darn scary.
Fear gripped me, I was already weak, and I could sense that my wolf is too. My wolf is an omega just like my parents, but that doesn't make us too weak like other omegas.
The only difficulty we're having is poverty. That asshole is really dealing with us.
Two months ago, I lost my father while we went hunting. The innocent man was strangled to death before me, but by an unknown traitor.
I was in pain that it took long for me to recover from the shock, but I had swore to avenge my father's death. No matter what it takes, I'll surely revenge.
Two weeks after my father died, a stranger from a different pack dashed into our home. The not too old looking man didn't care the hurts my widow mother was passing through, rather he persuaded her into marrying him.
I tried my best to get my mum away from him, but it seemed like a waste of time.
My life turned out to be hell. Derrick maltreated me and calls me all sort of abusive words until this day that I went hunting.
Now, I am in a dark isolated room, tied with a strong rope which I'm sure might pierce into my skin.
"Who the heck kept me here? Isn't someone around?" I screeched aloud, due to the anger roaming in me.
I shouldn't be angry at this moment, all that I should hope for is to live and to be set free.
My heart was beating too fast beyond my control. And the fear in me was like a smoke surrounding the room.
I almost fell alongside with the chair when I heard a heavy hit on the door, my eyes flee wide but I saw no one.
"Wh…Who's that?" I forced out a question from my mouth, but I got no response.
The only thing that I could hear was the footsteps of whoever it was, even the moon goddess knew how scary it was.
A hand grabbed the chair and shifted it backwards causing me to quiver in fear the more.
"Stop that, just tell me who you are." I yelled again, but I heard no response other than the echo of my voice in the room.
I felt that he began untying the rope. Whoever it is that's untying this rope in darkness must be either a beta or an Alpha. He or her wolf will have a sense of sight in darkness.
This is one ability that I lack as an omega, as we have the lowest rank in the pack.
I was tied completely and then dragged up, we left the room and I found myself in the passageway.
"Follow me."
I turned backwards to see a hefty man at my back. His voice sent shivers down my spine.
With his dressing, I knew that he is a beta.
He took a feet away from me, but I held his hand. He swirled his neck backwards to stare at me.
"Why am I here? Where am I? Who are you?" The three questions popped out of my throat at once.
There wasn't an atom of smile on his face.
I was expecting at least an answer to one of the questions, but I got none. Instead, he moved ahead while I walked fast to reach him.
The passageway was calm as well, until we diverted into another way which had a different look from the first.
This time, the passageway was decorated with flowers and paints. I began seeing and passing by different faces, both male and female.
The male ones were guards, while the female ones were dressed like maids.
"Fuck! This must be a palace, but I don't think greycrest pack has such a beautiful palace." I thought while following the beta.
We reached a particular door and he unlocked it before he dragged me in and pushed me to the bed.
I fell into the soft bed but with great surprise.
"You've not answered any of my questions, what am I doing here? Should I react before your fucking brain will tell you that I'm not comfortable here huh?" I shrieked at him, my voice loud as well.
He said nothing to me, but left the room.
"Is he a ghost?" I bit my lower lips and climbed down from the bed, I headed to the door and tried to open it with all my strength, but I ended up loosing balance that I almost fell down.
This motherfucker locked the door. I pulled it continously, but it was too hard.
"Step back."
I couldn't maintain my balance this time, I fell to the floor and shifted back. The voice I just heard was so cold, deep and filled with authority.
The door was slowly opened and a stoutly built young man walked in. With his dressing, I don't need to be told that he's the king.
He moved closer to me and squatted down. "Reyna Adams…"
Goosebumps fell on me countless times while I stared at him without a blink.
His broad chest and muscles, dazing yellow eyes, hairy skin and succulent lips didn't only swifted me off, but his stature was sweet and scary at a time.
He knows my name in full, but I know nothing about him.
"This is Denver Pack, and you should feel at home because you belong here."
I sniffed, this should be a joke.
How on earth did I pass the boundary and arrived here? There's a very big distance between Denver and Greycrest pack. It's too far that my wolf might not run ahead of.
I stared at his face. "How did I get here? Don't tell me that you're Alpha…"
"I am Alpha Asher." He cut in.
I felt like I was in hell that minute, seeing the devil in a wolf form wasn't my wish. A lot of people from my pack, including my mother has never said something good about him.
He is devilish. He is cruel. He is ruthless. He is cold hearted. That's the only way people describe him.
I shook my head, this should be a daydream.
He stood up. "A maid will be sent to you, make yourself comfortable."
"What the fuck are you talking about?" I yelled out of anger.
He gazed at me for a while and patted my shoulder. "You're exhausted already, you should take a big rest before we climb to the next ladder."
I felt so weak, but the confusing part of it is that my wolf was so elated that it kept whimpering.
I clenched my fist. "What offence did I commit? How did I get to this pack? You want to kill me afterwards huh?" Tears already gathered in my eyes.
Several times, I've heard of how he kills without a second thought. You don't disobey him and go scot free, but then, I still don't know what I did wrong.
"You need to rest before joining your ancestors." He turned his back at me and left the room immediately.
Join my ancestors? That means, I'll be dead soon.
My heart flipped instantly and I slumped on the floor.
REYNA…My eyes slowly opened for me to stare at the rooftop, I swirled my neck by the side to see a maid arranging my room. I wiped my face after examining the soft king sized bed that I was laid."Wait! Is this still Denver Pack? Did I pass out before him?" I muttered, drawing the attention of the maid.She walked closer to the bed smiling, she bowed before me while I threw heavy glares at her.What the hell does she think she's doing? Bowing before me as what? I released a loud hiss and climbed down from the bed. "Your majesty, the king ordered that you stay indoors until you fully get yourself." The maid announced to me. I turned, twisting my lips. "Did I ever tell you that I'm sick?" My voice raising at each word, he made it known to me that I'll meet my ancestors. Isn't it better to meet them now that keeping me hanging. "Where is he?" I scolded the young lady.She glanced around. "Who are you talking about?"I felt like hitting her that moment, but I didn't want to do anythi
Alpha Asher …I rushed to her when I noticed that she was passing out again, this is the second time and I won't say that I'm less haunted about it.Before she reached the ground, I grabbed her to myself that she placed her head on my chest, but she already passed out.Her eyes were shut tightly, and I could hear the fast beat of her heart.I lifted her up and moved to my bed, then laid her on it. Since I already lost my appetite, there wasn't a need for going back to eat. Rather, I moved into the bathroom and returned with a bucket of cold water and a little towel. Gradually, I placed it on her forehead. My gaze focused on her, while I shifted her long dark hair to the side. I couldn't get my eyes off her,since her beauty was charming. I'd say that this is just me taking a good look at her for the first time, she was exceptionally beautiful.But the bitter part of it is that I'll never fall for it, she's nothing but a tool to me, and so I have nothing to do with her. She wasn't mo
Reyna My head was too heavy for me to bear, the pains I felt wasn't ceasing despite how I wished for it.I gripped my head with my two palms while groaning silently in pains. My eyes slowly opened for me to see myself in the king's room.I should be in my room by now. Gradually, I sat on the bed with my palms still affixed on my head."You're awake." I lifted my head to see a maid standing some miles away from the bed. "His majesty ordered me to stay with you until he's back here."I said nothing to her,rather I began climbing down from the bed.She matched closer to me and held my shoulders. "Please, you need enough rest to recover fully.""I can't recover fully so long as I'm here." I replied her, pushing her away.She staggered backwards a bit before coming forward again. "The king will be back soon, you have to wait for him.""Sorry, but I don't want to." That was when all the past incidents began reflecting in my mind. I turned to the maid. "For how long have I been asleep?"She
Alpha Asher Right from the moment she left my room in anger, my wolf took over me. He punished me severely while growling in anger until I felt nothing but pain.I sat on the bed, trying to put myself together after such torment, hoping that she would return to scold me again like she has been doing, but I wasn't able to see her until three hours elapsed. Fear gripped me that she hasn't shown up since I know that the security was too tight for her to leave, not because I was feeling guilty or that I'm beginning to feel for her….but I'm scared of what my wolf would do to me next because of her.I decided to go see her myself, she needs to take the herbs in order for her wolf to heal and aid in healing the wound….and the bandage on her head needs to be changed too.I fling the door open but came in sight with Kayla, she pushed me backwards into the room and shut the door back. Arguing with her this time is what I don't want, since we haven't settled the first misunderstanding we had
Reyna I groaned in pain when I felt the deep scratch from the mountain lion before I slumped to the floor. The cloth I was putting on soaked up with blood, and I could see the cougar coming forward while licking it's mouth in hunger.I already counted myself amongst the dead, maybe, I'm not fated to live that long like our older parents. My heart was beating so fast, I kept shifting backwards while the cougar moved forward. A loud howl echoed in the woods all of a sudden, causing the cougar to jump backwards. Behold was an Alpha wolf howling aloud with its head upwards. I was lost in thought. "Who could that be? No Alpha would be in the woods by this time. It's very late already."While the wolf was raising an alarm, I heard footsteps in a run heading to the place we were, and the cougar had already pounced on the wolf.I was so weak to stand up, or that would have been an opportunity for me to leave. Seated on the floor, I watched as the cougar fought the Alpha wolf that was ext
ReynaMinutes elapsed after the Prince left my room but I haven't gotten back myself. His voice kept repeating itself in my head making my heartbeat fast.What matters now is my mother, I don't need to lose that woman like my father, and she isn't supposed to suffer because of me."But why did I even turn his request down when I've been longing to leave?" That question popped into my head, I gasped in shock.I think this is the opportunity for me to leave this pack, I don't need to lose my mother because of the Alpha king. "Leaving will only worsen things for us, remember that he's not as cruel as Alpha Asher." My wolf whispered to me.Oh my gosh! When on earth will my wolf collide with any of the suggestions? She keeps turning down anything I say since we found ourselves in Denver Pack. I scratched my head. "Prince Hayden is up to something, and mere looking at him reveals how serious he is.""But the king won't let him carry out his plans, so you shouldn't worry." My wolf snapped
ReynaMy eyes met with that of Kayla who kept glaring at me, I glanced at the king who wasn't even ready to say a word. She left the doorpost and walked closer to us, dragged me by my hand and pushed me away from the king.Her eyes were burning like a fire that I became scared of what's going to happen next."It has reached this extent, you fucking kissed…""Stop that please, I never kissed him. He did, and I wouldn't stop him." I blurted, cutting short of her sentence. She walked closer to me and landed a heavy slap on my face that I felt the room rotating. I stood immobile for a while trying to get back myself when she dragged my hair and yanked it so hard.I couldn't bear the pain any longer, so I gripped her clothes and tore it separately, then pushed her away from me with the little strength in me.The king released a loud hiss and drew her backwards, his glares on her weren't heavy, but the look on his face revealed how annoyed he was."You must take your eyes off her, and do
Alpha Asher I had to leave the mansion because I still couldn't stand Reynas' presence there. I thought of the first time I saw her, the emptiness I felt but yet there was a need to protect her. Last night was a bit tough because of the nightmares that were piling up in my head. In the world we live in, there was only pain and suffering. What I didn't get was why I still felt a bit concerned. She agreed to be my breeder and yet I was in conflict with what I was feeling. I have only known exhaustion since she arrived here but I needed to look for ways to keep her tethered and close to my reach. Ever since Hayden had shown himself in the mansion,I knew that chaos was looming. He was my brother and he was on the run for the same thing I own, the same thing I'm craving to have for myself fully. The last time I saw them together, jealousy was eating me up from inside. What they were talking about was dark to me because the room I kept in Reyna was sound proof, no words that we might ha
KaylaI know that this moment is going to be the most tense moment of my life. I am not prepared for it, but I know I am going to scale through.Asher's appearance is not friendly, neither is his word. I just hope we don't end up broken tonight."Now you can't say anything,"he scoffs, 'I know you won't be able to say anything. You are just so terrible and stubborn," he expressed and he is not yet done.Those words hitting my ear were like sharp arrows. My heart is kinda bleeding at its shoot. I don't know the reason behind his anger, but I guess it must be Reyna.Opening my mouth agape, I finally have something to say. "Why would you say such a thing to your wife… what have I done wrong?" I said, so that he will explain what is wrong.Looking at me like a hungry lion, he said, "just stop the pretense, woman… have you forgotten what you said earlier? Now I am here…."I didn't allow him to finish his words when I cut his words short. "Hold it right and don't speak too much. This house i
Kayla'Geez…' that insult meets me in a place I couldn't for once I had thought it would. I felt hurt and at the same disgraced.That word of hers pierced my soul just like a bullet would do. I don't know why I took things too far, but I just have to do things my own way.Walking hurriedly to my room, her voice penetrated my ear."Don't ever dare me again… don't try me." Those are the words from Reyna and I felt so, so bad.I walk into my room and have the door banged immediately with thoughts making my heart a dwelling place. Everything is just so pathetic, 'even her…' I could believe what I just heard. There is no one that would say Reyna said those hurtful words, I will never believe it.All I wanted is for her to stay away from my husband so that he will have time for me. All I see now is like he has interest in Reyna.'I don't really want him to leave me for her. What do I do?' I let out a heavy question. All I require is an answer to it.I am kinda tired of it all. Everything i
ReynaI walk out of Asher's room with total shame and an intense anger welling in me. 'Did I deserve this treatment?' I had to let down that question, unfortunately there were no answers and with the look of things It's like a deserved it.I am really tired of everything. I could hear their argument immediately when I stepped out of his room, but I am interested to listen. I walk hurriedly to my room with tears running down my cheek.I know Kayla is the problem. I don't know why she hates me that much. Entering my room, I banged the door right behind me. Looking at how my room is properly arranged, I felt empty within myself. I let out a heavy sigh and had my eyes rotate around the whole room in a giffy. 'What do I do for real? I don't think leaving this mansion is really the solution.'That thought in my heart just has to stay, I didn't have a choice than to retain that thought. I just have it dangling in my heart while I think heavily.'What do I do?' I had to question myself aga
Asher That moment my jaw dropped, 'what did I just hear?' I can't fathom it neither could I wrap my head around her words.Instead of me seeing what she just said, all I see is her pain and agony towards the maltreatment that Kayla exhibits. That moment I felt bad for her, but what do I do? I just can't let her leave. If I do, I am just devilish and I won't have anyone with such a vague name."I am tired of it all. I want to leave," that word slides out of her lips.Immediately she intensified it, I saw brokenness and extreme pain. Looking at her face, I can see her eyes welling up. I know it's tears that want to have their way."I will take my leave now," she said and wanted to stand from where she had planted her head.I can't just let her go like she is heavily pregnant and I have to consider that. Getting up, I had to draw her back.Pulling her backwards, she falls to the bed. I could see shock all written on her face."You can't leave, Reyna…. You can't," I have to let those wo
AsherI let that word out of my lips with a long stare. I could see reluctance shown in her face. With that, I know she isn't interested in doing it. Anyways it's punishment, so it's a must.Opening her mouth agape, "but why will I be the one to make food for you?" Kayla had to let that word out. She can't just be silent.I let out a heavy sigh. Fixing my gaze on her that moment, "who do you think you are?" I intentionally let out that question, because I was infuriated."Asher… I am your wife, not a person you picked from the street. Why would I be making your dishes when someone is here doing it already?" she emptied those words on my face.I scoffed that moment and tilted backward gently. With an intense gaze on her, I let out a sigh, "who do you think you are?" I intentionally asked again. This time, I made sure it's more intense and heavy. Kayla walked up to me and stared at me in the face before she finally opened up her mouth to spell out some things I didn't expect. "I will
AsherPerceiving the aroma of the food got me on my toes. 'Today, I am going to ravish this food.'That is my thought at the moment considering the kind of vibes I am getting from my tummy. Walking to the dining table, I took my seat and lit my face with a smile as well. In no time other people converged at the dining room. Seeing their smiley faces made me happy too. I opened my food right away.'Damn!' the aroma that strained out of the food is giving. I couldn't help myself but to swallow my saliva, because my mouth watered at that moment.Observing everyone's gaze, they were all focused on ravishing the delicious food in front of them.Instead of me focusing on all of them, I kinda need to focus on eating my own food.Shoving my spoon into the food, I dipped it into my mouth.Chewing it, my eyes widened with shock, but at that moment, I couldn't help but spit the food out of my mouth. Fixing my gaze at Reyna that moment, I called her name with a harsh voice even with them focu
KaylaMy heart couldn't stop itself from rising heavily. My heart couldn't just believe what Asher just did. If anybody would have said this about him, I will say it's definitely a lie.My gaze was all fixed on him. I guess he didn't even mind what I would think about his decision. He banged the door behind him without looking back.'Now I know my place,' I muttered in the midst of my pain. I didn't expect things would turn out this way. Although I was scared at first about what just happened. Immediately he walked off, I swallowed some saliva and walked back to my room covered in lots of thoughts. 'This is the height of it all. I need to do something really quick. I can't just allow her to take over everything. No… I can't.' That is my resolve and I am bent on doing the needful. I can't just let her take over everything I have.Sitting on my bed, I rested my head on the pillow, at least I should allow the inner thoughts to flow effortlessly.Not quite long, I heard a knock on my
Kayla"Fuck!" I scream at the top of my voice as the pain dilated through my body. Not quite long, Reyna walks right back with a napkin.Seeing her with the napkin got me more furious. My eyes changed at that instant. I couldn't stop my tongue from rolling down a harsh word."Are you that dumb? A bruised hand would be cleaned with a napkin? Argh…you disgust me," I expressed in pure disgust.I couldn't just think it, nor could I believe that a person could be as foolish as her. Watching her move forward and backwards like a fool. I had to clear the air, "don't you know you need to get some water…at least for me to cool this hot hand.""Oh… I am really sorry," she said and rushed off.My eyes run through her pathetic body with pure hatred. Her attitude and manner of doing things irritates me. I don't know why Asher is just so interested in her.While my mind processed her foolishness, my bruised hand wouldn't stop paining me. "Get here, Reyna" I rolled those words out at my highest vo
Kayla.I stayed up all night waiting for Asher, hoping that he would come bursting through the door saying all sorts of sweet nothing that I loved to hear. The more I stared at the door, the tighter it remained closed. It was like the screams of my mind only echoed away with the silence and as much as I tried to wait to stop the blank noise from filling my ears, there was nothing much I could do. I sighed drifting to sleep not knowing what else to do. I thought maybe Hayden would be the one to satisfy my needs at this point because I didn't like the idea of waiting more than I have been for hours. I have tried to understand why he didn't see the need to inform me about him not making it home tonight.I miss him. I miss the man I once knew. The one that stayed up with me and listened to my worries and made them his. Everyone thinks I'm the villain but I'm not. I just hated the strange foot stepping into the little space that I have created for the both of us. Until this throne came in
