Alpha Farrell's POVI took in my surrounding, hating the dirty condition of the cell. Yes I threw her in here but Archer could have at least ensured they cleaned the place up before locking my mate... before locking her up in here. Thinking back on the conversation Archer tried to have with me I brought my eyes to Star. Her eyes filled with fear as she avoided holding my gaze. Not that I wanted her too. I was still upset about the broken portrait but I was willing to give reason to Archer's word. I had promised him after all. I glanced over at her before speaking. "Are you hurt?" Star appeared startled by my voice then raised her head. I inhaled when her eyes met mine. If there was any word that best described her bright blue eyes it would be 'gorgeous'. I suddenly felt envious of how captivating and calming her eyes were unlike my red eyes that were testified scary. I softened my gaze on her hoping to lessen the fear I could feel coming from her. I moved closer but stopped when s
Alpha Farrell's POVThe sound of my steps echo through the hallways as I storm into my study. The mate bond be damned! Who does she think she is?! My breathing became heavy and I felt like returning back to the cell to finish off what I started. What right does she think she had to speak to me in such manner. Like I was some pitiful case and she was the cure to my ache. "She means nothing!" I screamed at the wall. "Nothing at all." Frustration overwhelmed me as I knew I was only saying this but within me I knew for sure she meant much more. Feeling the need to destroy something, anything, I pushed off the books from my desk. It did nothing to quench the anger within me. Star be damned! I angrily kicked the table off its footing, sending it into the wall. The loud clash caused a thick vibration across the windows and I found it almost satisfying. I reached for a chair and sent it flying, getting the same loud distracting noise. This was exactly what I needed. Something to distrac
Star's POVI wrapped my hands around myself in tiredness. The weather soaked into my body leaving me stuffed with excess cold. It was slowly getting harder for me to breathe. It probably was because a few minutes ago I was almost strangled to death. It was foolish of me to have bothered or even shown a bit of care the the Lycan alpha. He was ruthless and harsh and he didn't hesitate to prove to me how little I meant to him. If I meant anything at all. But we are mates... aren't we?I was mentally troubled with my thoughts and for a while it kept me unaware of the cold but after sitting on the cemented floor of an empty smelling cell, I eventually caught the cold. My head burned and my eyes stung but I couldn't help myself. I was locked in a cell at the far back of the prison and whenever I called on a guard I was simply ignored. At the moment I couldn't even find it in myself the strength to call for help. It wasn't all bad considering I could easily find death this way. It hurt
Archer's POVI snarled, urging Farrell to charge at me with his claws. I in no way intended to take down my brother as it would be almost impossible to do so. Even in his mid shift he was still stronger than I. "Come on!" I yelled through my hard glare. He was angry and I knew he wanted to let out some steam so I didn't mind getting a few bruises. I don't know exactly what Star had said to him but I do know that it had hurt badly and probably brought back bad memories. I wished I could say Farrell has been doing fine but that would be a big lie. He had been holding himself strong and training his new form with the help of pack warriors determined to take the life of those who killed his family. Now he had done what he wanted. He had slowly and painfully taken the life of Duncan, their alpha, yet I could see it in his eyes; he wasn't satisfied. The void wasn't filled. Killing his enemies hadn't brought them back. If he would just calm down and listen. If only he would try and see ho
Star's POVI found it impossible to sleep through the night. I wasn't sure what time it was but I knew for certain it was past midnight as the full moon shone brightly in the sky. I closed my eyes calmly listening to the echo of a loud howl. The sound wasn't happy or bland, instead it was filled with so much pain. It was the kind my father had rendered on my sixteenth birthday when I still couldn't shift. It was a call of pain and hurt. A shout of regret and helplessness. It was a sound that poured out my emotions. Oh goddess bless whoever it was weeping as the person brought a strange peace to my heart at the sound of my thoughts being poured out in a sorrowful howl. It was something I would have done severally if I could shift but then I would probably never have had to cry so hard as life would have been better and less painful to live. I would have felt choked with every breath I took. I wouldn't have to think of floating away with his sounds. This is the last sound I want to
Casey's POVI tucked in the ends of the blue blanket under my bed unable to hide my smile. I felt so relieved after leaving Alpha Farrell's mate in her cell tonight. Though I wish she wasn't in a cell but it was alpha Farrell's decision and he could be stiff headed some days. Remembering how cold and pale she was when I got there, my face scrunched up in a frown. I needed to ask Beta Archer to speak to Alpha Farrell. He could kill her and that is the last thing we want for our pack. A sigh escaped my lips as I plunked into my bed. Unlike every other maid in the palace, I was quite close to the Alpha. He was friends with my mother and although she was a good fifteen years older than him they were very close until her death. Since then Alpha Farrell cared for me like a relative. I still served as a maid in the palace and I wasn't complaining. I actually liked it; the smile people gave whenever I served always warmed my heart. So far Alpha Farrell's mate was the toughest to pull clos
Alpha Farrell's POVI growled as my hackles rose, my eyes burned as I kept Casey under my gaze. How could she? "How could you?!" I yelled, feeling anger enveloping me. Casey shivered in fright on the floor and I felt the urge to punish her. "Alpha Farrell?" The guard at the door pleaded, glancing between I and Casey. I kept my gaze on Casey, ignoring the man trying to calm me down. "I swear on the moon I will kill you with my own hands if you do not explain. Casey?!" My voice charged with warning and she raised her head. Her face was covered in tears. The veins on her neck pulsed as I'd she was trying to speak. "Damn it! Sign for goddess' sake!" I sprung to my feet, the pain in my leg instantly becoming numb. I just needed to know she didn't give her the blanket. I needed to know she didn't tell her to take her life. All she had to do was sign but that was the one thing she wasn't doing. "Casey?!" I could feel the beast in me clouding my senses but if she wasn't going to deny it
Star's POVSpending twenty four hours locked in a hospital room has a negative way of affecting the mind. My tired gaze roamed across the stark white room I was forced to stay in. I felt tired. Too tired to try and remove the tubes connected to my hands. Too tired to cry. Too tired to think properly. I had woken up alone and I couldn't deny the fact that being alone didn't feel good. This was my reality though. I knew I would always be alone. Mated or not, I knew no one could stay with me long enough but was this really a bad thing? No it wasn't. I would rather live my reality than have that Lycan alpha pretending to care about anyone other than himself. My eyes widened when I caught sight of a shiny silver on the floor. I leaned over my bed to catch a better glimpse of what it was, ignoring the sting from the needles in my arm. A knife... a pocket knife! Quickly without thinking too much about it I reached under the bed where the knife was resting and picked it up. I winced when
"Hello, dearest brother, nice to see you again," Archer smirked as he stepped out of the darkness, and Farell watched his only brother with mixed feelings. He had no idea whether to still hate him for everything he had done to them or hold him close because he was worried about him. Instead, he returned his smirk with a more sinister one. "Five years is not as long as it used to be anymore. I see hell has been great on you." He fired back and both stared at each other without exchanging further words. Alpha Farell had no idea how to react to this news; his brother was back this time, as one of his worst enemies, The Devil Alpha of the Northern Realm. BOOK 2: Claimed by the Devil Alpha.BOOK II OF THE CLAIMED SERIES“Come here, little slave,” he snickered, and Lila bit back a sob before she found herself crawling back towards him. He owns me now, and I am the property of the devil lycan. ____People make mistakes, but some are deadlier than the rest. Five years ago, Alpha Archer tu
Star's POVThe dresses were paid for with Farrell's card and we all walked out of the store back to the car."Grrrr, my stomach made a rumbling sound of hungerHarriet and Farrell looked back at me." Come and sit in the car, I've got food packed for you."" Mmm, I nodded and walked into the car to eat."Cravings and hunger were the largest difficulty in giving birth to children for the Alpha, my mother had faced the same thing and I'd seen so many instances of that.Mine was very much over the top and got me worried about my intense cravings and mood swings.The food was all eaten in a few minutes, a bottle of uncapped eater was handed to me by Farrell." Let's go back home, Harriet and I will do the rest of the of the preparation."I sat back and closed my eyes for a nap.Farrell drive back to the pack house and I was already asleep by the time we got home.The sound of the car door being opened was the last thing I Heard before drifting off to sleep.Five hours laterA small strea
Alpha Farrell POVA small muffled smile came from my mouth." Come lay down, your legs must be sore, I'll massage it, and then you sleep."" Mm okay," she said and laid on her back.I held her long, slim legs in my arms as I massaged her tendons.A little while later, Star was already sleeping peacefully.I continued for a while before kissing her forehead and then got out of bed.A maid stood by the kitchen door and there were two more inside the kitchen."You can go for today, you're dismissed."" But my Lord, how about my lady's meals." The maid asked hesitantly to leave." I'll take care of her meals, you can go."" Yes my Lord," all three of them said and walked out of the room.I walked to the kitchen and took a basket of oranges to make juice.Half an hour later, a knock on the door made me walk out of the kitchen.I opened the door to meet Harriet by the door." I've done as you asked Alpha Farrell, Harriet said to me."" I nodded and walked to the bay of the room, a newly dug
Alpha Farrell's POVStar smiled mildly and went back to eating her meal.I stared at her face and felt an indescribable feeling of homeliness and love for her.I knew what I had to do, I had to mark her, to make her become mime forever and ever.But before I marked Star as mine I had to first settle Archer, I had to serve him the punishment he deserved.I walked out of the room and called Harriet." Good morning Alpha Farrell, Harriet's voice came through from the other end of the phone."" Good morning Harriet, I want to be at the pack house as soon as you can make it." Alright Alpha Farrell, " Harriet said with a rather giggling tone." What's wrong with you Harriet, I asked."" Nothing Alpha Farrell, I'm just imagining the helpless look on your face when my lady pregnancy hormones rise to the top."" Are you making fun of me right now, Harriet."" No I would never make fun of you my Lord, I'm Just imagining things."Right, the star's yelled out my name." Farrrrreellllllll, she sc
Alpha Farrell's POVStar woke back up an hour later.She laid in the bed while I left to go call a doctor over." She's awake doctor, please come check on her doctor, my wife is awake."" Alright Alpha Farrell, I'll join you shortly."I walked back out of the doctor's office and took a bottle of water from the dispensary on my way back to the ward.Star's looked up at me as soon as she heard the door opening.She stretched her hands towards the bottle of water in my hand."I'll uncap it for you," I said and handed her the opened bottle of water.She took the bottle from my hand and drank it all in one gulp." Easy, easy, Star, you'll get yourself injured like that."" I'm hungry, Farrell, I feel like eating chicken nuggets and a heart shaped dessert."" You just had surgery and the doctor will be here to check on you, we'll see if you're able to eat all these foods you just mentioned."The doctor walked in right then." Good day my Lady, he greeted."Star answered him with a slight no
Archer's POVI noticed that Farrell was engulfed in a fight with Alpha Ryan and saw that it was my chance to get rid of him once and for all.I held the bow in my hand and positioned the arrow in the middle.I retracted the arrow and shot it in his direction." Farrell," I heard a familiar voice scream out loud, it was star's, her body was running towards Farrell and she pushed him out of the way to take the arrow." Starrrrrr," Farrell and I screamed out in shock.No this couldn't happen, nothing could happen to Star, I threw down the bow in my hands to the ground.Star's body fell on the floor and Farrell's demeanor changed in an instant.I saw him from where I was flip over Alpha Farrell and cut down his head in one move with move.I could Guess what was to become of me.And once again I lost to Farrell, this would be my last fight.My last moment and the imagination of what Farrell would do to me played through my eyes.Star, I Made a small call to her Her body had fallen on the
Alpha Farrell's POVI changed into my wolf form and ran outside the pack to the war front.The battle was bloody, it had never happened before.Somehow, the fighters from the nightingale pack were being hit right at their weak points and no one except the people in the pack knew the pack's weakness.There were so many attackers from the other side and I was constantly worried about Star.Even though I had left several bodyguards by the door, I still was restless.What If the same incident happened Again, there was no doubt about what disastrous things would happen to me.An arrow swooshed past my body meters away from me and I dodged in an instant.I went back to fighting the attackers and brought anyone that came my way down.Another bullet flew right above my head.I took a look at the person who shot the gun and leaped at him.Archer was in the battleground too, I felt relieved seeing him there, fighting with me and not Against me, it was good that we were able to settle our differ
Alpha Farrell's POVI carried Star back to the car and sat her down in the front seat before igniting the car to drive back home." I'm going back to eat my food leftovers, " Star said as soon as she walked inside the room.I felt an inexplicable feeling when Star behaved like that, like a cute little wife who was waiting to be pampered, but still, so many things had still been left undone, although we slept together, ate together, and did almost everything together, she was only my mate and not my wife.I was yet to put the rings in her hands and lawfully call her my wife.I knew what I had to do.I walked into the room where Star had walked to and saw her eating the food she had left over before we went to the pack.I stood still for a moment and wondered why Star enjoyed the haunted house.She was really unpredictable." I'll be right back Star, I've work to attend to," I said to Star as I walked in front of her." Mmm, okay, when are you going to be back."" I don't know how long
Alpha Farrell's POVI sat her down in the shower and took a sponge to scrub her body.Her body shone under the bright light of the chandelier.Blood rushed to a certain part of my body but now wasn't the right time.She needed to sleep and rest adequately.I washed her body and carried her back to the bedroom.I dropped her down on the bed and walked into the cloakroom to pick pajamas for her to wear.My stomach made a small noise and I knew what caused it.I'd have to go to the kitchen to make another meal lest I starve to sleep tonight.Star slept soundly as soon as she was comfortable on the bed while I slid off the bed to the kitchen.I stood in the kitchen for a while making a meal as quietly as I could.I didn't want to wake Star up from her sleep.30 minutes later, I sat down in the kitchen and ate the food silently before going back to the bedroom I drifted asleep immediately. I settled down on the bed holding Star's body to sleep.Next dayStar and I woke up at the same ti
