ROSALINE'S POV"Ohh shit!!!"I stumbled and fell on a hard rock body. I looked up to see who I just fell on, and it was Gabriel."I bet you saw me coming," I replied.He scoffed."And I bet you didn't realize that there was an obstacle on your path which made you stumble. I have been standing right here all the while. You were the one who hit me. An apology would suffice," he saidI huffed."Stalking me?" I asked."You wish, don't you?" he replied sarcastically."Then why do you always seem to be in my way," I questioned."The last I check, your name wasn't imprinted on any passage way here," he answered with a light grin on his face.I knew this question and answer would continue for eternity. Gabriel had such time but I had no such time for that because I needed to see alpha Konan urgently. I ignored him and tried to make my way when Gabriel fully stopped me in my tracks."Beta dear, I sneered. I would really appreciate if you would clear the way. I have somewhere urgent to go to."
ALPHA KONAN'S POV Sleep was far from me. Madeline betrayed me, I muttered continuously, unconsciously. I buried myself with work. Morning was here and it was time for alpha Novare and his people to take their leave. I had to see them off because it was only customary I did so. Madeline yet wasn't in sight.She appeared from the other end of the mansion. My eyes was fixed on her as she made her way to join alpha Novare and the others. Her eyes was fixed on everything except me. She clearly avoided my gaze.Alpha Novare noticed and whispered to me."Tone your stare a little bit Konan. You could burn her with those laser eyes of yours."I scoffed."Your whore will be back like she never left. Chill out Konan, you won!!!" he grinned.I gritted my teeth at the sound of the word whore coming from his mouth. I knew he was indirectly trying to provoke me.I never moved my eyes from Madeline. The early morning breeze blew her silky hair about and her smooth skin glistened under the rising su
MADELINE'S POV"The shameless bitch lost my baby. Who told her to interfere with the affairs of the slaves and servants. I strongly instructed her to be careful with what she takes for the sake of the baby and out of carelessness she gobbled down a herbal tonic that wasn't hers to take in the beginning. For disobeying me and killing my pup due to carelessness, I am going to punish her dearly for it."Dan!!!, his voice bellowed which showed he was smitten with anger, "Bring Madeline to the execution room". He commanded and he sauntered angrily out of the hallway.From my room well enclosed with brick walls, I could hear Alpha Konan’s voice thundering and ranting. Alpha Konan had always been unsympathetic and ruthless when dealing with me and today's own will definitely be the height of it. I huddled myself together on the tiny bed in my room, my gaze fixated on the wall opposite of me. Alpha Konan is the father of the unborn baby and the unborn baby was also responsible for part of th
ALPHA KONAN'S POVI woke up to the sun sending piercing rays through my room window. I squinted my eyes to avoid the rays from getting further entrance into my eyes. I sat upright on my bed and ran my hands on my disheveled hair and I noticed I was sharing my bed with someone. Not that it was something new or anything. It happened almost everyday of the week. It was like a normal routine for me. The lady on my bed was stark naked with only the duvet to cover her shame. I could see the crimson red under where she slept then I knew for a fact that she was a virgin I just broke.I took a close look at her and found out it was Madeline, my most dreaded and mortal servant. How come she ended up in my room and sharing a bed with me. Come to think of it, this was the first time I had taken alcohol and it clouded my sense of judgement. Something wasn't just right. The alcohol contained something else I wasn't aware of."What have I just done?" I scrunched my face and face palmed. Of all the
ALPHA KONAN'S POVWerewolves are always excited when they hear of mates, their fated ones. And if by age eighteen their fated ones have not been found, they are thrown into anxiety and sometimes leading to incurable depression. I had never for once taken mates seriously. I called it one of the age long nuisance of werewolves. It has been a tradition followed by all the werewolf race, but I single handedly chose and resolved not to follow that traditional path.It has not been up to twenty four hours since I was conferred the alpha title and the council of elders are all fervently encouraging me to commence the journey of parenthood and bear children who will continue the legacy. Today is my mate choosing ceremony and selected girls were ready for me to choose from. It was not my kind of thing but I just had to be present. This was the first ceremony organized for me since I became the alpha.Everyone was gathered in the great hall when I arrived and my selection ceremony began in fu
ALPHA KONAN'S POVI remembered how Elyan my wolf sprung up when my eyes caressed Madeline's bare body. It was a one time thing and she has already taken in. Lately I had been looking for ways to get rid of her suitably. I had unfinished business with her and my revenge is imminent. But as it stands now, I had to put revenge in the corner.I paced round the room, my mind swirled with conflicting emotions. She was now carrying my child and I needed the child and a mate to establish my full authority in the pack. She would be useful as a fake mate to ward off and quell the problem with the pack elders about the issue of choosing a mate and having kids.Announcing her and the baby in the next pack meeting would be the best and the meeting was less than three hours to go."Dan", I called."Yes, Alpha Konan", he replied from behind the door, summon Madeline here. "You mean the servant girl who was here today?" "Daaan, dragging his name. Is there any other Madeline in the whole of this mans
MADELINE'S POVI was escorted to my room by the servant lady assigned to me by Alpha Konan. I sobbed all along the way and I contemplated how my life would take its course from henceforth. I got to the room and I was met with other servants who were all ready to assist in the preparation. With teary eyes and gloomy face, I took a look at them, hoping I would be noticed. They all went about their normal business, all behaving similar to a robot, as if I wasn't there, as if I never existed.The new room was one thousand times better than the servant cubicle I resided in until now. It had all the necessary amenities to make life easy and comfortable. I was taken in for a hot bath which had fresh scented flowers to add its own unique fragrance. I had my legs shaved and my hair thoroughly washed. I was instructed to sit in front of the vanity mirror by the head servant lady in the room that she would be with me shortly. Seeing my reflection in the mirror, I could see noticeable changes on
MADELINE'S POVHis hands were still on my lower back as we went down the decorative hallway leading to his quarters. All the way I thought of how he punished the elder who questioned the paternity of the baby and the authenticity of me being his mate even when I was just an insignificant contracted mate carrying his child. We got to a secluded corner of the hallway leading to his quarters when I noticed his gentle demeanor shifting to a steely resolve, his eyes glowing with a fierce intensity.“Madeline, how did the elder catch a hint that you may be a fake mate", he said shaking me vehemently and squeezing my biceps tightly. I was filled with confusion as he demanded answers to question I know nothing of. I was caught off guard but I was determined to defend myself. Enough is enough and I wasn't going to keep quiet anymore. He had caused me enough emotional damage than I had ever experienced in my life since the past twelve hours.“Alpha Konan, I may be a low and filthy servant to yo
