“King Alonso,” one of the two bulky looking guards is in my front with a stern face. I let out a low growl at their approach, and I match their energy with my own firm authority

“We need to ask you a few questions,” he continues, his eyes darting between mine and the body of the girl in my hands

“I'm in a hurry, so be quick,” I snarled

“Fine, fine,” the first guard steps aside for the other to continue

“Who is the girl, why is she unconscious and alone with you?” the second guard is speaking as he keeps looking at Alora’s weak body.

I feel my beast snarl, but I control it almost immediately. “She was drugged at your Alpha's ball. I found her unconscious and I want to make sure that she is safe”

The guards exchanged suspicious looks between each other before the gaze of the second landed on me in scrutiny. “How can you prove to me that she was drugged?”

“Can't you see how she looks like? Can't you see that her breathing is raspy and she needs help?”

“Did you drug her?” he dares to ask

Then her eyes begin to flutter, her face starts to move slightly before her eyes open up softly. That is when I really get to see them. Her iris arebrown, warm but filled with confusion and struggle“You are awake,” I say with a soft voice and I am confused if I should sound that soft with her since we have no relationship with each otherShe jerks up suddenly as if she finally understood that she was not familiar with me or the environment she was in. She winces too, her hands flying to her abdomen“Careful,” I mutter, moving closer to her as her eyes darts around wildly - meeting mine and flicking around the room“Who are you? Where am I ? What do you want ? Please don't hurt me!” her words are rushed“What? No!” I am suddenly defensive. I never thought of what to do if she wakes up and

    I am shocked when I discover that the man in front of me is King Alonso, but I don't show it. I don't want to act impress for some reasons, especially not when he just sees me as something he can use. Yes, that is what I call it. Why does he not want to tell me the real reason why a king would settle for an omega? His request is unsettling in my stomach. His offer is juicy. His Kingdom is greater than my father's territory, so it would be possible that he protects me. It is understandable on my own side why I would want to marry him, but why would he want to marry me? What would people say? What would he tell his people? What reason would he give them that he married an omega- the weakest of the pack?I stay motionless on the bed as I watch the overshadowing man on his back on me, picking up his phone. I am relieved a little when his attention is no longer on me, but still I am not comfortable. Is deep voice feels the air as he talks to the other person on the phone“What is it, Leo?

    I lay on the bed staring straight at the white ceiling. I am lost in confusion and I feel so much despair. Suddenly I feel my stomach growling- it is sharp and painful. I remember that I have not eaten since… I can't even remember now. I feel the ache in my stomach grow more and more, but I don't even have the energy to move. I feel so weak nowI shift uncomfortably on the bed, my hand is feeling around the bed to find my purse. But then I realise almost immediately- my purse- I don't think I have seen it since I woke up. My purse has my money in it and I think it is gone!My money is gone. I have saved it up for months in a hole I had dug in my room. It had not been easy since I rarely got any money of my own, but I started running small errands for the big girls in school - that is how I got money to save up. I have been stashing up every coin I could, planning my escape from the pack. All gone now, like it's air from cigar slipping out of my lipsI feel my body shutting down in dis

    “Oh, I am still alive,” I yawn loudly as my eyes flutter open sleepily. I didn't even know when I slept off. After eating, I had been so full and tired that I decided to rest a little. Maybe it was then that I slept off. I feel a little bit victorious because I am alive, though my body aches from sleeping in an awkward position on the bare floorI stretch my hands, but my muscles protest in pain from my movements. My ankle still screams from where I sprained it earlier, but I noticed that the pain is now manageable when compared to beforeI am trying to stand up when a knock comes on my door. I am a little bit scared and apprehensive but not like the first time- perhaps because I have already subjected myself to whatever fate awaits me“Hello, Miss,” the familiar voice of the staff that came earlier filters in through the door. Her tone seems urgent- a type of urgency that wasn't there before. I move closer to the door to hear her properly“Miss, I came here to tell you that you have

    Leah's POVAs I watch King Alonso’s car disappear father and father away from me it makes my blood boil. My blood even boils more when I think of the fact that Alora is in the same car with him and she is probably frolicking around with him. I induced her heat, she must probably be throwing herself at him and he must probably be touching her body by now. It could have been me!He chose her instead of me! How dare he!? How dare she!? How dare the both of them!? They both made me look like a fool. I'm standing here watching my chances of becoming the queen of the Alistair Kingdom slip away from my hands like fine sand because of that worthless omega wolf!“Get out of my sight!” his simple words had sounded in my ears. He dared to talk to me as if I am a common werewolf who is nobody in the pack. Even his Beta was trying to explain to him the nature of my status in the pack to him, but he didn't care. Instead he made a mocking remark about meThe memory of how he dismissed me feels lik

    Alora’s POVI don't know where I am going to go to , but I am happy that I am finally escaping. The pack border is just in front of me and my plans are seemingly attainable in my head. My disguise has worked well so far but my heart nearly stops when I see the increased number of patrol guards at the border. Something is different today- the usual pattern I memorised has changed. I wonder whyI try to maintain my elderly woman disguise, balancing the laundry basket of my head to gain a little bit of pity when I want to cross. I don't want them stopping me. But the environment is not helping me now, the morning sun is beating down on my shoulder making the shawl on my head almost unbearable because of the heat. I am suffocating as sweat trickles down my shoulders. I am contemplating removing it, but I can't. Not when I am in front of the border and the patrol guards“Stop right there, woman,” a big guard calls out to me. “Did you not hear the Alpha's order that we should check every

    Leah's POV“Yes she has been stealing all our money to give to those boys that sleep with her!” I open up the purse and let the money and coins flow out of it like a river. Earlier, I had put my money too into the purse to buttress my point when I finally tell mum and dad.“I said it!” Mum shrieks as she has been doing all through the night. “I said this girl is loose,” she clasp her hands on her chest dramatically. “Even after all my monitoring, she still finds the time to be a brat!”"She's brought shame to this family again," Father declares after mum speaks, his deep Alpha voice making me shiver a little. "When she returns, I'll make sure to deal with her"If she returns," I remind them softly. "She left willingly with King Alonso. She forced herself on him. Who knows what she'll do to trap him? She might try to force a mating..."Mother screams before I can even finish. “That little…” she stops mid way and just screams in frustration"Perhaps," dad says, cutting off Mother's rant

    “Alroa?” this is the first time I see that his attention is piqued. “So she is your sister?” I see a frown on his face.“Yes… yes,” I hate that I am stuttering so helplessly. I don’t want him to assume that I am week. I want to be bold before him. I have to get used to his eery and commanding presence. Is this how I would behave towards him when we get married?“Do you know she was drugged last night?” his eyes narrowed dangerously to meet mine as if he suspects me. “And all you did was rant about how I should pick you. If you didn't mention it now that she is your sister, I wouldn't have known that she is not your worsr enemy”“What… no…” I deny sharply, even though in my head I am agreeing that Alora is my worst enemy. That bitch! What has she told the King about me? I hope he doesn't know a thing about what I did. Gosh! When I lay my hands on that slut, I'll make sure to squeeze out her miseraby life out of her weak body“Did you do it?” he accuses me sharply“Hun?” The accusation

    “Okay… that is Enough!" Agatha pulls something from her coat – a black amulet that looks strange. "Let us stop this!” she screams before she turns to AloraYou leave me no choice.""Oh please, shut up, mother," Alora says. "You just consistently make the wrong choices."She raised both hands, and the earth beneath us begins to tremble. Cracks appears in the ground, spreading outward from where she levitats. White energy crackles around her like lightning."Hold her!" Agatha commanded, but even she took a step back. Something was wrong. Very wrong.Alora's body begins to convulse, her eyes rolling back until only the whites showed."What's happening?" Emma whispers behind me, clutching my mother's arm. I want to tell her everything would be okay, but I cannot find my voice.“Just stay away…” I say instead. “Run away… follow mother!” I talk to her with a sense of haste and panic“No I cannot leave you here, brother Lucas…” she breaks down crying“Go… go!” I urge in urgency“No!

    At first, Alora bursts out of the car runningStop her!" Agatha's commands.Two of Darren's men lunge for her, but she is a bit fast dodging them severally when they try to catch her. For a moment, I think she might make it. Then three more guards appeared before she knows it, she is caught."No!" she screams as they drag her. "Let me go!" she struggles. Then seeing that her struggles are futile, she understand the severity situation and she begins begging"Please," Alora whimpers as they drag her. "Please don't do this." Her voice is getting smaller and smaller. She keeps looking at me with tears in her face “Lucas, please..." she begs anything and anyoneI turn away. I couldn't bear to see her like this- plus I also have my own problem- I don't know what Agatha is planning to do to me and my familyran."Bring her here," Agatha commanded, pointing at the spot in front of her. "And this time, make sure she can't run."They dragged her back, her feet leaving trails in the dirt as sh

    "Why should I believe you?" She finally says, her voice trembling slightly. "You handed me over to them before! You are confusing me! Are you for me or against me!”“Alora! This is not the time! I will explain later!” I put out my hands in an extension to her, but she doesn't take them- instead she takes a few steps back, she is scared of me now and it stings at my heart"I'm trying to help you now," I say, my voice low and urgent.“I don't need your help!” she almost screams, but she immediately remembers where we are“Please…” I plead silently but urgently. I reach out, my hand almost touching her arm, but she raises the stick up as if to show that he would attack me. "Trust me, just this once."Her eyes soften, then it hardens, then softens again. She opens her mouth as if to speak, closes it, opens it again. I can see that she is having an internal conflict- asking herself if she should trust me. She takes half a step toward me, stops, retreats. The bends -lowers an inch, then ris

    The moment Agatha's ultimatum pierces my ears, I know I have to find a way out. My sister Emma's terrified eyes doesn't leave me even as they drag her back into the car. Her silent plea for rescue is louder than even if she screams- I would have preferred she screams rather than remain quiet and give me those eyes that make guilt gnaw at me. Agatha's cruel grip on my family has always been suffocating, but now she has crossed a line that I am willing to fight against. I need to be a man and do what is right.As soon as the dizziness passes, I'm moving. One moment, I want to help Alora, the next I'll do anything to save my family. The shock of the blow quickly transforms into determination. I can hear Alora's footsteps as she escapes. I know what's at stake- it is either her or EmmaI am reminded about Agatha’s threat to Emma. One mistake, and my sister pays the price. I am so confused right now. I feel so much like a loser. I cannot protect my family and I cannot protect the one I cla

    The taste of blood? Oh please, I am used to it by now. Darren's men still hold me down against the forest floor. Blood and dirt mixed in my mouth, but that doesn't even bother me one bit. My attention is fixed on Luna Agatha as she approaches the invisible barrier where the cabin stands. Her black dress seems to make her more evil, and I fight back a shudder as she reaches out to touch the protection spells."Such clever magic," she murmurs, her fingers almost going through the air where the barrier shines faintly. "An old protection spell. Your father taught you well, Lucas. But not well enough. Or perhaps you are not worthy enough"My heart stops as she nods toward the black Mercedes. They open the car boot and I watch in horror as two guards drag Emma out. My sister's face is tear-stained and she is scared – she looks so much like our father that my chest aches because I cannot protect her now. I hate the Luna!"No!" I struggle harder against the hands holding me down. "She has no

    Darren notices what I am trying to do. "Don't even think about it," he growls and so I don't move.“How come you watch seven alpha's die? I heard they died so young in war and you didn't even try to save them?”"Are you stupid?" I am getting the exact reaction I want to get from Darren- he is as angry as I want him to. "You're barely old enough to remember the last war, and you think you can speak to me about sacrifice and leadership!? Do you know what I had to sacrifice!?”I force a smirk even though I am calculating the places and corners to run and escape with. I also calculate how fast I can open the door, enter inside and relocate even though I know that after relocating I will be a rogue wolf forever because I will obviously be an enemy of the pack for going directly against the Alpha's orders and housing a wanted pack traitor, Alora- that is what the pack calls her now. I look at Darren and I like the way he is heaving in anger. "Seven Alphas died under your watch. That's not

    Now I am watching Daren almost find Alora and if he is as good as he claims to be, Alora is in trouble because he would be able to sense hiding magic in the area. Alora would not be able to leave because Daren would stay there until she comes out. I want to relocate the house, but the house can only be relocated when I- the key holder and the descendant of the builder is in itThis makes me remember how during the war, we were stuck in the house for over a month because the soldier sensed hiding magic. Dad had not given anyone the power to relocate yet. So the soldiers stayed outside for more than one month waiting for us to come out from wherever we were hiding. Food and basic needs were not a problem because the house provided for us. But staying indoors for over a month was mentally stressful. Dad on the other hand kept watching us, until one day he decided to distract the soldiers. He kept trying for days until one day he succeeded. Immediately he got in, we relocated to another

    "I want to accept it so badly. To let her take away the pain, to let her touch me so I can feel our energy one last time. But is it worth it? Agatha's warning signs in my ears like a bad omen. At that moment, Goth walks in with a slightly bent head, he avoids my gaze because of what Agatha had made him do. Of all the guards who hit me, Agatha had made him hit me the most. I hold no grudge against him yet- well until I understand what the stakes were for him to betray me like that. Was it money offered or threats made to him?
