CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 107: A Sniff of Real Power
Hera’s POVArnold might’ve left in a fit of rage but I was elated because I’d finally convinced him that Layla was a witch and planted seeds in his heart against her by informing him of her tendency to bring doom upon us all.But even more, I was glad that Aaron had finally put himself to use by becoming one of Ethan’s trusted soldiers especially because it’d taken so much convincing to make him for for it. I’d soon be reaping the rewards of my hard work of scheming to get both Arnold and Ethan on my fingertips.Speaking of rewards, I made a mental note to give Aaron his for succeeding in the first phase of my plan to have Ethan wrapped around my fingers. But first I needed to be prepared for Ethan’s arrival so I waved my maid over and she immediately dropped the laundry basket in her hands.“Go to the physician and ask her to give you the vagina tightening oils she usually prepares for me” without looking at her I knew that she’d bowed in response.“Yes ma’am” I heard her lift the la

Arnold’s POVMy head was spinning and so was everything around me, I felt like I was caught between two opposite worlds and they were slowly crushing me, a world were I and Layla were happy and another where she's a witch and there's an impending curse on my tail.It still felt unbelievable whenever I thought of it, my sweet and shy Layla was a witch all this while? The timid girl that turned red and couldn't bear to use curse words? My goddess of purity and innocence that couldn't hurt a hair on anyone's head had a prophesy of doom hovering around her? Everything seemed too much for me handle when I was already at a dead end with overthrowing Ethan.In the end, I loved Layla more than life itself so I’d still be willing to accept her as a witch over time.But what bothered me even more was the fact that Ethan’s curse was meant for me and it was wrongfully imposed on him because of my father’s greed and cruelty. I should’ve been the one getting torn apart by bloodlust but I’d escaped

Layla’s POVEthan’s rejection of my request to let me be annoyed me, it made me feel like he was two-faced for showing me such a good time on the hill and then suddenly switching up on me after I made such a simple request.Speaking of a good time, I couldn’t help but reminisce how free spirited and absolutely different he seemed while we were on the hill top. It felt like I was in the company of a completely different person, a side of him that he probably hid under all those walls of anger and violence that he’d put up to be a feared leader.It might've been short-lived moment, but it definitely felt good to experience.However, it did nothing to make up for how he’d ruined everything between me and Arnold. Arnold had never had a reason to lash out and call me a slut until Ethan’s arrival in our lives and I blamed him for everything that’d gone wrong in our once perfect relationship.I didn't want to deal with the chaos that my life had become so I pulled out a book from under my pi

Ethan’s POVI’d been in a meeting with Jenkins and Aaron for the past hour because we needed to have everything in place for my upcoming coronation and wedding which was drawing unbelievably nearer by the second.“Will the wedding still be held if Layla realizes that you're not her mate when she finally turns eighteen?” Jenkins asked as he moved the open book before me to his laps.“Of course, as long as she’s my mate, she’ll be my wife. It's more about how an Alpha’s potential is at his peak with his mate and less of how she feels about it” I told him knowing filling that the lines were blurring slowly.Deep down, I’d prefer it if she was also my mate so that she’d wholeheartedly accept me rather than pushing me away and placing some unreal importance on Arnold’s place in her life like she currently did.I wondered what it’d feel like to have her affection and gorgeous body all to myself without worrying about that slimy bastard. All over again, I was suddenly reliving how annoyed I’

Ethan’s POVI didn't think that my heart could physically hurt, I wasn't even certain that I had one until now that it was threatening to get crushed because Layla was in pain.My arms were woven tightly around her and her face was buried in my chest while she cried so much that her shoulders were trembling and her sobs were turning into painful hiccups every now and then.“Shhh, it's okay Layla. He's not here anymore, he won't bother you anymore” I clutched her tightly against my chest and hoped my words would pacify her.However, they seemed to be doing both of us no good since she was pushing against my chest and trying to weave her way out of my embrace.“Don’t push me away now too” My attempts to conceal my emotions were futile because my voice broke as I held a still sobbing Layla who wanted nothing to do with me.She stayed in my arms for only a few more seconds before she wiggled her way out while sniffing and cleaning her tear stained cheeks.“You shouldn't be here,” Her voic

Arnold’s POVEthan humiliating me again was the last straw that finally broke the camel’s back.As soon as I returned to my room, I sat before my dressing mirror but on seeing the bruises on my face from beaten up by that bastard I punched the mirror and watched it shatter before I angrily rose from the chair.I hated how easily he could overpower me and how protective he was of Layla, a woman that rightfully belonged to me. I knew I had to kill him no matter what, I might've made that decision lightly before, but this time around I was saying it while watching blood drip from the cut on my head that he’d caused so it was set in stone.This bullshit struggle between us for the throne and Layla couldn't go on much longer and I was willing to be the one who’d put an end to all of the madness.The idea that had struck me while I walked back to my room after being flung out of Layla’s was meant to be my last resort if she didn't agree to run away with me because it was an extremely danger

Layla’s POVMy eyes opened slowly as I heard the chirping bird sounds that usually signaled that it was morning, but when I tried to stretch as I always did, I realized that there was a body intertwined with mine and apparently we were both stark naked.It was Ethan’s.On a normal day, I’d have panicked and pushed him off me but for some reason having his skin on mine was calming so I didn't move an inch. Instead, I looked at his face and how peaceful he appeared while he was fast asleep.His slightly ruffled hair was resting on his forehead while his thick dark lashes framed his face and his plump lips were slightly parted as he slept, I always knew he was devilishly handsome but he looked beautiful to me when he dark eyes weren't piercing into mine angrily.As I lowered my gaze slowly, I noticed how unbelievably attractive his chest appeared, the skin had a few scars but they somehow made it more endearing and I ended up watching his chest rise and fall for a while, confirming that

Layla’s POVOnce again, Ethan had proven that he was incapable of reasoning with me and it put me in a sour mood all over again. I was aware that he was convinced that I was his mate, but as long as I couldn't confirm his claims, he was merely stringing me along for his own benefit and without any regard whatsoever for my feelings.While I still couldn't explain why there was a part of me that couldn't resist his sexual advances, I was still not willing to be his when I knew how much it’d hurt Arnold. He’d lost so much of late, and losing me to Ethan would make him completely lose his mind, and I couldn't live with myself if I was the cause.One fact remained, I was just as confused about everything as I was the day Ethan had called me his mate and I'm even more upset now because my 18th birthday is drawing nearer and I might end up being forced into a marriage with him despite belonging to another man.There was just one person’s insight that’d be much more grounding than my chaotic

CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 142: And They Got Married.

An hour? Why hav

He moved away from me I’d just pushed a dagger through his heart again, there was disbelief, confusion, and pain in his eyes but he only had those emotions because he didn't understand why I’d declined his proposal.After almost spending my life with the wrong man because of guilt, I couldn't say Yes to Ethan while guilt kept eating me up for the great of our lives. I’d be as much of a monster as Arnold was if I take advantage of his feelings for me and jump into marriage when guilt had been plaguing me like it was my second shadow since the day I watched him fall to his death.He stared at me again, long and hard before he walked toward the bed and covered himself in the duvet, an air of uncertainty hovering over him as he delved into thoughts of his own.

I quietly pulled it over my head and held my arms around my body tightly as thou
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 140: The best reunion
Layla’s POVI’d known Joy several times in my life, but the joy I felt as I confirmed that Ethan was real and he’d returned to me was boundless, it felt like an unreal wave of happiness had been injected into my bloodstream and life finally felt worth living again.Like the war was over, and the battle line had been erased, it was surreal.“Are you going to keep staring at me like I'm a ghost?” Ethan laughed as he continued to massage my sore joints.“You might as well be” I reached out and cupped his cheek, yearning to remain in contact with him so he wouldn't disappear into thin air.“Well, I'm real and I'm here, forever this time around” He suddenly pulled me off the bed and onto his laps and I laughed as a yelp left my lips in surprise.“So you can stop staring at me with those alluring orbs of yours” He pulled my face toward him and kissed my forehead, not the quick kind that would pass as a peck, this one lingered like he was trying to touch my soul through physical touch.God,
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 139: An Unhealthy Obsession
Layla’s POVNo, no fucking way.It was him all along? Arnold killed my foster parents? He’d watched me mourn them knowing that he’d orchestrated everything because they rejected his advances toward me?“They were all I had, and you knew that! How dare you speak of their deaths so lightly, you monster!” I screamed my lungs out in anger not caring what he’d do to me.Much to my surprise, a smile covered his face showing that he was pleased that I was in so much pain because of what he’d done, my heart was being torn into countless shreds as I recalled that there was a time when I loved him and I considered marrying him not knowing what a sick and twisted bastard he was deep down.“You watched me grieve them, you watched me turn into a shell of myself, you watched me be bitter that I’d lost the last links to learning of my heritage,” My chest heaved like bomb was ticking within it as I spoke.“You watched me almost lose myself and you promised me that you’d find the beast that killed the

Arnold’s POVThe day had come.The night hour had just struck, and I was about to recover all I’d lost and much more.“Are you ready?” I asked Hera who’d been seated in front of her crystal spell casting bowl and brr spell book for the past hour.“Never been more ready” She smiled at me so brightly it could’ve illuminated the underground hideout if we switched off all the other lights, her motivation was endearing to say the least.“Go ahead and cast the spell then” I flashed her a smile as well but mine was subtle and filled with anticipation.She nodded eagerly before she crossed her legs before her and held her hands out over the bowl, from where I was I could see that a visual of crescent valley had appeared in the water that filled the bowl like a reflection and I watched her mouth move as she muttered words in an unknown ancient language.I wasn't very close to her and yet I could feel the enormous amount of power radiating from her as she rolled her head from side to side and t
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 137: You’re a Beast
Arnold’s POVHera looked like she was about to offload the heaviest weight that had ever been on her shoulders and I just stared at her wishing that I could look through her and draw it out of her myself, still Hera was the only person of worth I had on my side so I decided to be patient with her as opposed to the thought in my mind where I was half considering yelling at her and shaking it out of her forcefully.“How long before you actually use your words?” I finally asked impatiently after about six minutes of deafening and irritating silence had passed by.She looked as though my words had just jolted her out of her train of thoughts and she replaced the lost look on her face with her usual demeanor that oozed confidence, raw and undiluted confidence.“You’re a beast, Arnold” She said while her eyed bored into mine searching for a befitting reaction to her revelation.Unknown to her, her words would've hurt and surprised me a few months ago, but as I heard them it only felt like a
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 136: Two Villains
Hera’s POVWeeks had gone by and each day I felt crazier than the last being holed up in a disgusting dungeon that wasn't fit for royalty such as myself.Layla had replaced all the guards that were loyal to me during her reign with guards from Ethan’s rogue army and they all hated me so my seductive tricks didn't work on them. I was hoping that I’d be able to seduce one of them into setting me free but they looked at me with disdain each time they came to fling plates of food at me every morning and evening so I eventually gave up on that plan.Life seemed hopeless and it felt like the moon goddess had finally abandoned me and shut her ears to my prayers, nothing was working out and it seemed like I’d suffered so much to reach the peak of my dreams just to have it shattered by a teenage whore.Still, I tried to pull through.It was night now and I was trying to fall asleep by replaying my happiest memories in my mind, the beautiful and wholesome moments that I’d spent as Queen before
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 135: Might Never Find Love
Layla’s POVThe entire palace was still buzzing with life in the early hours of the morning as preparations from my impromptu coronation were in full swing. I could hear the clustering and swooshing all around as I woke up in the master bedroom that I’d taken over seeing as I was about to be made the official queen of Crescent Valley.As I stretched out my arms, I heard a soft rap on the door.“Who’s there?” I called out in a sleepy voice.“It's me, Nadia” Her soothing voice responded from behind the door.“Come on in” I yawned in between the words and drew my silk pink robe tightly around my waist as she opened the doors.“Hello your highness! How does it feel to be mere hours away from a coronation at eighteen?” Nadia swayed from side to side with some dresses held tightly to her chest and I guessed that there were the selections for the event.“Uh, nervous?” I told her truthfully as I made my way toward the bathroom to freshen up.“You’ll do amazing while making waves in the ancien
CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ALPHA RIVALS 134: The Reunion
Layla’s POVHera’s eyes were blazing with a deadly anger, a type of anger that the old me would've been terrified of if she saw how it radiated off of her, but it was a good thing that I’d buried the timid me in the wilderness before I returned for the throne.“You can either leave peacefully or meet a disgraceful end that whores like you should be accorded” Hera’s eyes held a venomous look that didn't scare me one bit as she threw her empty and ridiculous threats at me.“That crown, that throne, this kingdom…” I punched toward her as I spoke and I could see a hint of surprise flash through her eyes on seeing how much nerves I’d gathered.“All of it belongs to me and I’d love to watch you come at me so we’d see whose blood would end up tainting these floors” My orbs changed from golden brown to the piercing red shade I took when I transformed into a witch.“How dare you!? You! A worthless rat that should’ve been left in the gutters where you belonged! How fucking dare you address me t
