THE NEXT DAY

Chaos’s p.o.v

I am awakened by the sun blaring rudely in my face. Which fucker left the damn window open? I would really like to know and give that person a delightful piece of my mind.

It’s not like I hated the sun but it's in my face rudely and I am not a morning person. I try to move only to realize I am being held tight to a chest. I mean a very yummy muscular chest by a muscular arm.

I look up only to be met with the adorable sleeping face of my mate. Ugh... sleep really does stuff to people. He looks so angelic but you and I both know he is nothing like that.

I throw my head back on my pillow as the events of last night rushed back to me. I felt bad for walking out on Alpha River's mum and pack but I couldn't help it. My father is a touchy subject and I didn't like the idea of someone talking about him as if they really knew what he was or where he was.

It is a guarded secret that his children, mate and a few select people and council elders of my birth pack will take to their graves.

He may be dead to the world but he wasn't dead to me and our family and I won't take it from anyone who thinks otherwise. I was clearing my mind when I heard people moving to what I guessed as the training grounds at this time of the morning.

Gently grabbing my pillow, I swiftly moved from under Alpha River's arm before replacing my body with the pillow.

With a soft kiss on his forehead, I rushed to the washroom where I quickly brushed my teeth and pulled my hair into a loose bun before going to take a leak and that is when I realized I was still in yesterday's clothing.

Quickly shrugging out of them, I dropped them in the laundry basket before looking round for my suitcases. I found them alright but they were empty.

I opened the second door after the washroom door only to find out it led to a rather extravagant walk-in closet.

I walked further into it and was amazed to find my clothes arranged just how I liked it. Color coordinated. Though there not that many colors to put them in. my clothes come in specific colors such as black, white, grey, ash, maroon and dark red. I hate bright stuff.

I quickly searched for my black training gear and as soon as I found them, I tugged them on before pulling on my favorite combat boots to finish my look.

After checking my outfit and liking what I saw. My tattoos out for display and making me look sinfully sexy and intimidating, I tiptoed out of the room so as to not disturb Alpha River.

I closed the door and turned only to be met with the creepy beta seizing me up and down like a piece of meat.

Having had enough, I drew a fist and socked him heavily in the jaw and smiled when I heard the satisfying crack of his jaw breaking.

Taking a step closer to him, I lift his head up so he could meet my eyes and said;

"I may be a woman but I would not let you disrespect me... look at me like that again and I will make sure you never see anything else for the rest of your life again. Are we clear?"

"Crystal. I’m sorry Luna" The beta replied with his eyes cast down in shame.

"You better be. Where were you going?"

"To wake Alpha up. It’s time for training."

"Yes, I know but he's sleeping. Let him. I will be supervising the training today"

I may have surprised the beta because his head snapped back up to look at me and it was amusing. The way his eyes widened with shock. So much that he stammered out;

"Re... really??"

"Yes Matthews. Now let’s go. Lead the way"

We turned only to realize we had an audience. I recognize the men as the entourage that came to my former home.

I saw some staring at me with shock and admiration which am sure was because of my tattoos because it took a lot of courage and wit to get one not to talk about the thousands scattered all over my arms and chest whiles some looked out rightly intimidated.

Good! I may be a bitch but I was nobody's bitch. With a curt nod of my head as a greeting in their direction to which they responded with verbal morning greetings before falling in tow after me as the Matthews led the way to the training grounds.

We walked in silence towards the training ground but before we could take a turn into it, I heard the same whinny voice that bitched about me yesterday say;

"Alpha is late for training for the first time today. I’m pretty sure it’s because of that ugly bitch he came with yesterday. That bitch looks like all she can do is roll in the sheets with Alpha and look pretty. Ugh"

Before Matthews and the others could react, I raised a hand and signaled for them to stay put just before we heard another rather warm voice say,

"Just shut up Cindy. You are just jealous."

Shaking my head, I squared my shoulders and straightened my spine before walking forward into the training grounds.

The whole place fell quiet so much that you could hear pin drop as I and my entourage made way to the front where a rather buff man stood chatting animatedly with a young lad.

Matthews stopped in front of him and moved to the side so I was directly in front of the buff man.

Clearing his throat rather noisily, he caught the man's attention. The buff man turned only to cuss out.

"What the fuck happened to your face Matthews?" he asked with genuine concern.

Matthew peeked a glance at me and gulped when he found me staring heatedly at him. Sighing softly, he whispered;

"I disrespected Luna this morning and she thumped me in the jaw."

The buff man turned to face me with wide eyes and back to Matthews before chuckling softly.

"Well I will be damned. Please to meet you Luna. I am Jeremiah Montego, the delta and head warrior and this is my mate Stephanie" he said whiles nodding in the direction of the beautiful bashful woman that stood beside him before reaching out to shake my hand.

Meeting him halfway, I clasped my hand into this and after a very firm hand shake, I answered softly;

"The pleasure is all mine. My name is chaos and it’s nice to meet you and your mate"

I turned to face his mate who was smiling softly but shyly at me. I returned it with a small smile of my own to put her at ease around me.

"I love your tattoos Luna. They are beautiful" she said quietly

"Why thank you Stephanie but trust me they hurt like a bitch but I can’t complain now. It was worth it. Don’t try to get one. It fucking hurts" I answered rather seriously as I remembered my plight causing them to laugh

"Where’s alpha, Luna?" Jeremiah asked

"He’s sleeping but I will be in charge of training today. I want to see what I will be working with" I answered sternly

“Really!! You train?" Stephanie asked in awe

"Yes. Ever since I could walk and talk" I said causing those around to gasp

"Don't fret. Now time is a wasting so let’s get started" I said before turning around to face the crowd.

Matthews led me to a small platform which I mounted and after clearing my throat softly and pulling on my blank mask, I started saying;

"Good morning to you all. I know you must be wondering where your alpha is. Well he's not feeling well so he will be a little late but till he arrives I am in charge. If you have any questions you should ask now before training begins."

I watched as about five hands were raised and picked the youngest to start.

"Um what is your name and who are you to the alpha?" she asked timidly

"My name is Chaos and I is his mate. Next question"

"Are you sure you can train us? How long have you been training? A rather young but muscular man asked

"I am confident I can and I have been training since I could walk and talk. My mother was hard that way. Next question"

"Are you sure you are the Alpha's mate and not his flavor of the month?" a familiar whiny voice asked and I realized who she was.

Letting out a spine shivering laugh, I said

“You must be Cindy. You have been bitching about me since the first day I got here and you don’t know me from Adam.

Now let everyone here listen for I will say this only once, I may be a bitch but I am nobody's bitch. I have alpha blood running through my veins and though I may be female, I take disrespect from no one.

So, here's what we're going to do. We are going to fight since you think am not fit to be your alpha's mate and your Luna and the only thing I can do is roll between sheets.

I know respect isn’t given but earned and I couldn’t agree more. So as soon as I get off this stage, we will fight it out of our system and I will make sure to beat you into submission since you refuse to see the fine line between me and you.

But before I get off this stage there are two males that also disrespected me yesterday. For your information, my ass and hips are not for you to get off on and you don’t have to wait for me to get naked so you could get hard because it would never happen.

It was a blatant disrespect to me as a woman and your Luna and like I said before I don’t take disrespect lightly.

So, step out and move to the front with Cindy before my wolf comes to play because then it will be bloody and she leaves no one alive."

I watched blankly though I was smiling inside as Cindy and two other guys stepped out of the crowd that was growling threats at them.

Though they tried to appear strong, I certainly didn’t miss how they trembled or the fear that rolled off of them whiles the pack watched on with disbelief, curiosity, shock and respect.

I turned only to find Jeremiah, Matthews and the rest of the warriors staring at me with pride and respect and with a nod of acknowledgement, I turned and jumped down the makeshift platform.

We are wolves and this type of behavior was rather common. But that didn’t mean it was appropriate. You turn a blind eye on this kind of behavior once and the culprit will think they can repeat it anytime and anywhere without consequence.

And soon others will start to follow in their footsteps and it automatically becomes a habit.

I can’t have that so I am going to make an example out of them so the rest will know that respect for all in any shape or form is required of them as well as utmost discipline and control.

I hope you enjoyed this! Stay tuned❤️

I stopped when his scent became prominent in a particular place. Exchanging a last text with my mother, I slipped the phone back into my back pocket before lifting my head to take in my surroundings and the sight I saw sent a knife through my already cold heart. I knew my mate and this pack were too good to be true. My mate sat at the head of what looked like the pack dining table with a woman in his lap chatting animatedly. Calling on to my birth given ability, I cloaked my scent and self before venturing into the room to listen to their conversation."You know you would have to get up before my mate returns right?" My mate asked the lady on his lap rather seriously"But we use to do this all the time and you didn’t complain honey?" the girl said with a frown on her face"Yeah I know and I still don’t have

    I stared out my side of the window for the rest of the ride. Enjoying the wind on my face and trying to make a conversation with my wolf which proved futile. I know she’s hurt just like I am and her silence is her way of dealing with it. She needs time when processing her emotions while I just face them head on before pushing them to the back of my mind if need be. I knew my wolf well and she was in perfect sync with me because after my first shift, I took time to know her and let her grow and explore at her own pace. I ushered her into my life to the latter just like she did with me and that makes us both a formidable foe. I let her be after I realize she just wanted to be alone and focused on getting home. I didn’t have to wait long because Matthews pulled up onto my mother’s compound before I could even nag him about how long till we get there. As usual, my mother and brothers stood in front of our home waiting for our arrival. The patrol teams at the border always alerte

    The car ride back was a rather tense one because Matthews was afraid of what Kiara might think of him when Chaos tells her what was wrong. Kiara was worried that someone had done something to Chaos and was scared because should Chaos decide to pay him or her back, all hell would break loose. Chaos was lost in her thoughts thinking of all the ways she could make Alpha River suffer without killing him. This continued till Kiara couldn’t take it anymore. Turning in her seat at the front, she asked softly;“What is wrong Kay?”“My mate has a lover” Chaos replied bluntly causing Kiara to gasp and Matthews to flinch“What! How?” Kiara asked confused“Well I walked in on them the second day I arrived. Discussing whether they were going to quit their ongoing relationship or not. They decided not to quit and my mate’s lover, Tricia said what I didn’t know won’t hurt me. But too bad I know and now I’m going to hurt them”“She… she said that?” Matthews asked with surprise as he was hearing

I deposited them into the laundry basket and that was when I heard the shower going on in the bathroom. Grabbing my clothes, boxers and shoes I walked out of the room and into the one adjacent to ours to take a quick shower. I was done showering and dressed in a couple of minutes. I walked out to go talk to my mate only to be met with a smiling Tricia. She’s the only woman I have bedded and still wanted around. I care deeply for her and I know I was developing feelings for her. I had given myself a year that if I still didn’t find my mate, I would choose her. But then luck was not on our side because I went for an alliance meeting only to return with a mate I never dreamt of. I felt the power of the mate bond as soon as we made human contact but I guess I would have to find a solution to this problem. Flashing Tricia a smile in

    Still Alpha River’s P.O.VMy mate thoroughly answered all the questions she was asked without interruptions till she got to the part where she let us know that she was going to train them herself and isn’t going to go easy on them because her mother didn’t. The beautiful young lady that she had entered the room with cut her off and called her a sadistic bitch. I was about to growl in warning at her blatant disrespect when my mate looked in her direction and chuckled before telling the lady she won’t be Chaos without being the sadistic bitch that lady said she was. And then went on further to playfully scold her. For trying to act like a saint when she was just a step behind her. My men and I watched in fascination and worry at the familiar friendliness between these two ladies and how they were at ease throwing jibes at each other even in our presence. When I had had enough, I asked my mate who the lady was and I guess that was my mistake. Because my mate looked

    Today was the day of the mating ceremony and to say the pack was just happy will be an understatement. They were elated and overjoyed because an alpha’s mating ceremony happens just once and the blessings that rains on them on that particular day left remarkable prints and impacts on their lives for the rest of their existence. Alpha River was in higher spirits himself and couldn’t help but celebrate in his own way. He spent the majority of the day with his high-ranked members and friends in the conference room, making merry and reminiscing over old times. Chaos stayed locked up in her room trying to avoid anyone as much as she could whiles Kiara stayed with Uncle Hephaestus who had already started on her new home. A smile still found its way onto her face when she remembers the call, he had given her as soon as he had left the pack. His precise words had been;“Princess, am sorry you are mated to that jerk.

It wasn’t the fact that it was there that surprised me but the way it had been presented. In actual sense, it looked like a bed. A large four poster bed with sheer curtains surrounding it. It had what looked like rose petals scattered all over the pillows and the bedding. But I was comforted by the fact that, the actual bed wasn’t visible to the eyes of everyone. The huge makeshift stage did a wonderful job of covering it to the exigent that only the curtains and the canopy of the bed could be seen. The little privacy was much appreciated.

They were so disconnected from the world that they gave naive a whole new meaning. They trusted too quickly and took people for face value.

    FINAL DAY OF THE AWAKENING Chaos’s P.O.V I was awoken by the beating of drums and the echoes of a chant you rarely heard even back in our home realm. A chant that was as old as time itself. I turned to find Xavier leaning against the headboard with his eyes squeezed shut. My heart broke for my little boy. He didn’t deserve what happened to him either but we were both victims of the harsh reality that is life. The balance of the world had to remain intact no matter what and that is why consequences came with manipulating it. Consequences that were a touch to harsh but that is the way of life. Repositioning myself, I lifted him into my arms and cuddled him tightly to my chest. I turned to find his father sound asleep and I could only sigh to dispel the rage that was bubbling beneath the surface. Dropping a kiss on Xavier’s forehead, I whispered quietly’ “I am so sorry my little warrior” “I know Mama” he replied hoarsely We held on tightly to each other as the tempo of the

    CHAOS’ POV I let my mind wander back to all that has happened today, the unending catching up and what not. In as much as it felt good to be alive, it didn’t help that this place awakened bad memories for me and to make matters worse, my innocent son, okay my semi-innocent son Xavier was here in this infested pack. I was leaving him back home but my son refused to part ways with me since the day he was born and in as much as it is endearing, it is also a major pain in the ass sometimes and especially in cases like this. He wanted to get to see and know his father and for the life of me, I could not deny him that. So here we are, in this darned pack. A pack that owes me blood. A pack that has awakened a bloodlust in me. One I thought I had buried for so many years now. The very same pack that I am an alpha of. Fate really has a twisted sense of humor. If it were up to my choices, this awakening wouldn’t have happened. I could have happy remained dead to this pack

    Fat tears rolled down my face as I watched the large phoenix transform into a woman, I knew too well yet looked so different. With hair as white as snow and a flawless skin that looked sun-kissed and eyes as dark as the night. I watched as she got clothed in the finest drapes of cloth whiles our gaze met and held. The warm smile on her face had my wolf howling in my head for the first time in ages and that was when it crossed my mind to check her neck for our mating mark. I wasn’t really surprised when I set my sights on the unmarked skin of her flawless neck even though it broke my already fragile heart and had my poor wolf whimpering in the back of my mind. The tears didn’t stop when she shifted a little to reveal a little boy who had been hiding behind her. My knees gave out and I landed on my knees with a hard thud because the little boy who stood regal with a cute scowl on his face with his jet-black hair in a little man bun, with no shirt on and low riding leather pan

    STILL IN ALPHA RIVER’S POV I don’t know how long I stood staring at the phoenix until I got distracted by the sound of leaves ruffling in the trees nearby. I only had to blink and the phoenix was gone. I had this boiling urgency to search for it and I did until I stumbled upon a small girl with red eyes about the age of 5-6 years. I sighed knowing very well where she was from. Getting down on knees, I asked her softly; “Hey honey, what are you doing out here alone?” No answer “Where is your mum and dad?” No answer “How can I help you if you won’t talk to me?” “I don’t need your help” she whispered “Ooh she talks!” I exclaimed sarcastically I couldn’t help the smile that graced my face when she let out a series of cute giggles. “Of course, I can talk silly” she replied snootily “So why then didn’t you answer me” I questioned curiously “Because I didn’t want to…” she replied with a sassy roll of her eye. Can you believe this child? I thought wistfully.

    The day of the quarter moon Alpha River’s P.O.V The day I have been waiting for was finally here. It has not been easy these past three weeks. Searching for leads and finding none. Finding some only for it to lead to a dead end. In as much as I had wanted to give up I couldn’t. I had made a promise and I was hell bent on keeping it. Over the past weeks, Kaeden has been quiet. Quiet in the sense that his low whimpers and growls have even stopped. It must have been my wild sense of imagination but I could swear that I felt something moving around the house. Strangely enough, that presence sent tingles and goose bumps all over my body whenever I felt it around. I wish I could talk to someone around it but I buried that thought. They were all walking on egg shells around me since they found out that my wolf and I were probably going rouge. I didn’t need then thinking I was delusional and need to be detained in a Psych ward. The ever-growing pack work kept me occupied

I understand his mate's death was taking a toll on him but I only wanted to offer my condolences in the only way I knew best. The bitch was dead and she still had a hold on my Jay. But she left her side bitch Kiara and I feel as if she knows something I don't. Maybe I should have had her killed along with her so called alpha. I had only taken two steps towards the door of my little house when I bumped into Felecia who looked like she has been crying for days unend. "What is wrong mum?" I questioned "Everything is wrong my dear. Everything" she answered hoarsely "What do you mean by everything? The Luna of this pack died. It is horrible I get it but that doesn't mean this pack has to die with her. I mean the Luna of this pack can always be replaced" "Don't talk like that Tricia Bennett! This is blasphemous.

How did I get here? Who changed me? What happened yesterday? I stood from my room and shivered at the cold air that seem to be constantly moving on and around my body. I headed for the bathroom and after taking a well-deserved hot bath, I walked out and into my walk-in closet. I spared a quick glance at my reflection in a mirror and that was when it hit me. The absence of my mating mark was the wakeup call. I fell on my knees since my knees were too weak to hold me up. It was not some weird ass dream. It was my painful reality. I stayed on my knees crying until there were no more tears. I still can't believe my mate was gone. My Chaos. After no more tears trailed down my face, I got back on my feet and robotically got dressed. I felt numb. I hurried with making myself look presentable because
