MADELINE'S POV

The sun had not even begun to rise when a loud knock was heard at the door. I jolted awake, disoriented and alarmed. The abrupt interruption of my sleep made me feel uneasy as I stood up to go check who was at the door. I was met with two warrior werewolves. Miss Madeline, Alpha Konan summons you to the execution hall. I swallowed the huge saliva with force, causing a scratchy feeling on my parched throat. I followed them obediently, but my mind ran several miles away from me in obvious fear. It wasn't dawn and majority of the household was still asleep. I didn't even have the time to change into something suitable, I was still in my nighties.

I entered the execution hall and I found a familiar figure on the floor covered in blotches of blood. I was scared and I went closer to the body. When I found out it was Drey, my eyes widened in terror and horror.

"Alpha Konan, I cried out in a shrill voice. What did he do to deserve this torture and inhumane treatment". I knew fo

    PETRA'S POV The plan to kill Alpha Konan and Rosaline failed terribly. It was totally destroyed and the outcome was one I hadn't come to terms with. These two formidable people were a threat to my Godfather, the man who rescued me from my near death experience. I had devoted my life to him ever since that night — ten years ago. Naturally every good thing came at a price, and my life was the ultimate price. It was one of those many nights when the moon casted and shone its silvery gray color over Moonshine City Pack. Everything shimmered and in our little happy home, I could still remember the hearty laugh of my father and the pretty smile of my mother, together with the cackles of my baby sister. It was one of the many memories I cherished, but also the ones that had me traumatized. I still wondered how I survived and I watched how my family all died. The burning of my home, the tears and shrill noises made by family while we were been attacked began my emotional trauma, introducin

    MADELINE'S POV. I woke up with a sore back and the day was already far spent. Events of the previous night came flooding to my forebrain, aggravating the already present pain in my brain enclosed within the case of bones it occupied. I remembered been escorted to my room by Alpha Konan's guards and I was repeatedly reminded that I was done for and destined to wallow in sorrow. For the first time in my life, I thought of my family and I wished upon them the same pains and agony I was going through. Sleep eluded me and I thought of the torture Alpha Konan subjected Drey to. I hopes he survives the punishment meted out to him and I cried myself to sleep. I noticed alpha Konan's shirt still draped on my body and I instinctively inhaled the familiar scent of musk and cedar. For some reasons, it gave me a sense of security coupled with absolute fear. A subtle knock was heard at the door and I huddled myself together and gave permission to whomever who was at the door to come in. Nur

    PETRA'S POV.I had just recovered from the punishment I received from Godfather some days back and it was time to begin the execution of the new plan. The only way to salvage the situation was to become close and undetachable from Madeline. I had put my plan in place. First, I was to go close to her and be her personal maid servant. Madeline is very lonely and I was one hundred percent sure that she would most appreciate and oblige to my suggestion and company because no one wanted to associate with her. Two, understand her daily activities and find the perfect time to strike. To be candid, I felt pity for Madeline. She was the only servant who was nice to me. I just wished she wasn't caught in this crossfire.I headed towards the lady's quarters with varieties of fruit that I knew she loved eating. Her room door was slightly opened and I knocked on the door and found my way into her room. "Hey Madeline, thought you might enjoy some of your favorite fruits today," I said showing her

Anger and worry simmered within me making my insides hot and I was forced to ask myself for the umpteenth time why I was feeling this way towards her. This feeling was new, it was very pristine."It is because she's carrying your child. So it is a tangible reason for you to behave and feel this way." My subconscious answered.Exactly!!!, and I couldn't agree less.Rosaline came into my study panting heavily from running."What did you say happen to Madeline," she asked worried lines evident on her forehead.

I will repeat myself again just once." "I like you Madeline." That was it. I wasn't mistaken. I heard right. I sat there, my heart hammering in my chest. My mind went for a spin. He likes me? "Cat got your tongue," alpha Novare asked casually, with a grin evident on his face. The tug of shock and amusement deepened on my face and it was damn obvious. I stared at him, trying so hard to guage his intentions. His expressions began to shift back to the cold authority I was accustomed to. The casual grin he had flashed moments ago had disappeared. It was like watching him reverting to the alpha Novare I knew, but I couldn't help but b

    MADELINE'S POV Ever since my confrontation with Louisiana, I haven't seen her. But I could feel her anger hovering around like the storm cloud. I could feel the way the others looked at me, quick glances and whispers behind my back. No one spoke anything to me directly. The moment the words left my mouth, I knew there was no going back. I was in for shit and Louisiana would be out for my blood. "You really gave Louisiana a hit, Freya said. You were the only one who had the boldness of a lion to confront Louisiana concerning the rumors in such manner. You are totally different now. You have finally removed the cloak of naivety. Congratulations Madeline!!!, but don't get too comfortable." Just as I had thought to take a rest, a knock was heard at the door. Alpha Novare had summoned me. My heart leapt in terror, but I followed obediently. While on my way, I met madam Apricot. She stared at me squarely and her sharp eyes never missed a detail.

    MADELINE'S POVI winced as Freya dabbed the wet antiseptic cloth against the wound on my arm. I could feel Freya's eyes on me, glancing up from time to time to where Louisiana sat at the far end of the camp with someone tending to her wounds."You got something on your mind," I asked Freya."Beat me, she exhaled. There's something different about Louisiana. What happened between you two?""Nothing," I replied her. I didn't want to talk about it or talk about the mission either. "Maybe she's still rattled from the fight," I added.Freya narrowed her eyes. "You are telling me, that Louisiana is rattled because of a fight? The same Louisiana who never misses a chance to remind us that's she's the toughest in the pack? Louisiana behaves like an asshole, but she isn't one to run away or be rattled because of a fight. You know you make a bad liar, don't you?"I didn't answer right away. I knew the words I said to Louisiana had struck a chord of reflection or better still, more intense hatre

Louisiana huffed in frustration.The poison had seeped deep into our system and transforming to our wolf form could not be attainable. "What are we going to do," I asked softly but loud enough for Louisiana to hear."We have nothing to do than fight them off physically."The surrounding flickered with a faint light from a worn out, old lamp. The faint light exposed three bulky men, thrice our size with hardened expressions. They towered over us, clearly confident in their build. The odds were against us, but that didn't matter."Seems they broke free. Feisty, just the way I love my women to be, the lead captor sneered with his folded arms across his chest. Do you really think you can take us trio on?" he asked, his fingers pointing at the three of them."Why don't you come try," Louisiana dared.Fright overcame me. "Louisiana, I whispered into her ear. We are at odds here, so I suggest we talk it ou

    MADELINE'S POVAs the night deepened, the air around the camp grew colder. The camp fire crackled, casting shadows on the faces of the warrior wolves present. Sera, sat in a corner and Freya talked to a group of other warrior wolves. I kept glancing back and forth at Sera, and I couldn't help but think that something went wrong when she went to gather firewoods in the woods."Everyone gather up," Louisiana said. Immediately everyone pulled together. When she was sure everyone was together, she divided us into two groups. One group which was headed by Freya, would stay behind to monitor the camp, manning the perimeter to ensure no threats crept up unnoticed. The other group, led by Louisiana, would push forward into the dark, rough terrain to patrol and check for any signs of threat or danger.And guess what, I was in the group led by Louisiana. Honestly, I had expected Louisiana to pick me. It was just the kind of thing she would do, dragging me along to test me, without rest, to see

    MADELINE'S POVFreya was right. The terrain was unforgiving as Louisiana herself—jagged rocks that seemed to rise out of nowhere and twisted roots around the paths, gnarled at my boots making every step a challenge.I occasionally looked back at Sera to check if she was keeping up, but it was very obvious she was struggling more than the others. You could notice from her small frame that her breaths came in short, sharp gasps, her face pale and strained. But yet she made tremendous effort to keep up—refusing to fall behind.Freya fell into steps beside me. Her brows furrowed as she too, glanced over Sera. "She's visibly flagging Madeline. Leaving her behind in the pack would have been the best for her and you. I don't think she can last longer than this."I nodded. "I know, I said. There's really no going back. Is there?""Louisiana isn't going to slow down for you or anyone," Freya said as she trudged ahead."Keep up, or you will be left behind!!!" Louisiana called back, her tone lac

"She's trying to spite you, Madeline. Refuse it, no offense.""Refuse what!!!" I asked."Does anyone have any objections with the warrior wolves enlisted to go on this border patrol mission," Louisiana's voice echoed.There were murmurs within the crowd, but no one objected."This marks the end of today's training. We are to gather here before dawn to begin our journey.""Why didn't you say anything. You could have objected to going on this mission. This mission is very dangerous. The terrain isn't one to be trifled with. Most times we encounter dangers that cause grievous injuries—worst case scenario, death. You aren't yet qualified to be part of this mission. Most times, we don't know how long we will be gone for."I scoffed."My refusal to go, only gives Louisiana more ammunition against me.""And she's
