"Princess," Kira bowed as she addressed me.

"Yes?" I raised a brow.

"The Alpha King would like to have a word with you," She told me, and I stopped what I was doing to look at her the moment she mentioned Franklin, and her eyes twitched suspiciously.

"Alpha Franklin?" I repeated before I could stop myself.

"Yes, Princess."

"Oh..." I braced myself. "Tell him I will be on my way."

"Alright."

She replied and walked out of the room. I sighed, wondering what he wanted to have sent for me in the day. It should have waited till night when we usually meet.

I walked to his room and my heart beat raced with expectation, not because I wanted to know what he would say, but because I wanted to see him.

I tightened my hand to hold myself when he finally was standing before me.

"You sent for me," I said with my voice a little bit higher than usual because I was afraid it would break.

"Yes, pretty," he replied casually and I tried to hold the blush.

"We agreed to meet at night when people

    - Franklin -I took a deep breath after Giselle walked out and paced back to my stool. I couldn't understand why she did not want me like I wanted her.I was on edge because I did not know what to think. I did say I wouldn't force anything on her and I will keep to my word.In as much as I loved her dearly, if she wants us to stay away, I have no choice but to respect her decision.I was serious about her giving me an heir. I wanted it to happen soon and fast so I wouldn't have to present Xavier to the Lords.I have meditated about him and I am most certain that he could not control the things I would have left in his hands.People only hold him in great accord because of me and not like he had done anything by himself. He will have to prove to me beyond reasonable doubt that he has substance and he has a very short time to do that.In the meantime, I have to prepare for a meeting with one of the princesses whom I had a business schedule with.I had asked her to meet me here instead w

    - Giselle -I stretched on the bed tiredly and opened my eyes when the door creaked open and a maid walked in. I frowned at the disturbance and she lowered her gaze apologetically.I'd instructed them not to come in for a few hours because I wanted to take a rest."I'm so sorry my princess, but the King sent me to you. There's an important visitor in the palace and he wants you to be there to welcome-""No please," I cut in. There's no way I'm leaving my nap to welcome anyone. I feel so tired I can't even lift a limb. "Tell my father that I beg to pass now. I am so tired. I will see the visitors before they leave.""Alright, princess."She was about to leave when I had a second thought and out of curiosity, asked her."Who are the visitors?""It's actually the crowned princess of Moondream pack, my princess," she told me and my eyes popped open.That's one of the great packs around the region. I've only heard about the princess too from stories and of how great she is."Why will Fathe

    - Franklin -"It's good to see you again, Zeba," I told the princess and she smiled."It's been like what? More than ten years and you are still looking as young and handsome as the last time I remembered," she replied."You are not looking bad yourself," it was the best response I could think of."Thank you," she smiled hard like I had said something significant. She took the glass of wine in front of her and sipped it slowly while her eyes hovered over it to maintain eye contact."We should talk about the business proposal you have," I went straight to the matter at hand because the atmosphere was suddenly getting awkward."Oh, what's the hurry?" She replied calmly, keeping the glass back on the table. "We should catch up on old times. It will make it easier. Besides, I will be here for a while because I want to oversee a few things with King Marcus and the neighbouring packs. As you know, I live very far.""That is more reason why you should get on with what you need to sort so you

    - Franklin -I strolled down to the garden and behind the building with Zeba. I stopped, looking towards where me and Giselle meet each other at nights."What are you looking at?" Zeba looked towards the direction. "What's there?""Uh, nothing," I replied. "Let's go."We headed for the training ground where there weren't many people."My father was a very skilled werewolf," she said with a small smile as she looked at the weapons carefully arranged."A very great warrior and alpha," I replied. "I remember we used to train with him when we were much younger.""Oh so you do?" Her face lit up. "Yes, I remember too. You were always grumpy and too serious even then. You did not talk to other princes. They thought you had so much pride because you thought yourself better.""I was there to train and not to talk," I replied indifferently. "And not being prideful, I was actually better than many of them.""You've not changed, have you?" She shook her head making for a sword. I stood still and

    - Franklin -I had not showered and was about to retire to bed when a soft knock came on the door."Who's there?" I asked, wondering."Open the door please," a feminine voice spoke from outside and I squinted my eyes suspiciously before going to open it."Zeba?"She pushed her way through and entered the room. I closed the door after her, my eyes narrowed questioningly."What are you doing here?" I asked."I couldn't sleep," she sighed and I couldn't understand how that should warrant her to come to my room, looking like...that.In all the years I have known her, she has never been exposed before me to that extent. She was not naked, but the thin and almost transparent silk nightgown revealed way too much.It was above her knee, exposing most part of her legs. It hugged her body so all her contours were not hidden anymore.Most times, she was always in a royal dress or war regalia and I did not get to see most of that. Standing before me was not the Princess Zeba everyone respected an

    - Xavier -I was faster to catch up with Princess Zeba before she disappeared into her room."What?" She turned round to face me with a frown on her face. I chuckled as I approached her."Keep it down," I said. "We are not fighting now are we?""What do you want?" She was still unsmiling."I know you don't like me," I told her casually as if I didn't care that she didn't. "And I might say that the feeling is mutual but it can't be that bad. I'm sure we still have a few things in common.""Look I don't have any time to waste with you. I have more important things to deal with and worry about.""Like trying to get my father's attention", I asked her and her face fell."What's that supposed to mean?" Her voice fell as well."I mean, you seem to have another reason for coming down here because you seem to be so free with him more than usual.""Your father and I have known each other for many years now. We trained together so we are friends," she defended."Oh well, if you say so. I'm just

    - Zeba -Franklin approached us and I was glad he came at the time he did. I wonder who the hell the princess thinks she is to stand up to me.I have been in many packs and have met many princesses and Lunas who despite their positions in their packs, would bow to my feet and honor me.This little brat thinks she is something because I am in her pack. She's just a princess by nature, being the child of an Alpha King, and nothing more."There's no need to exchange words," Franklin spoke after I reported her to him and I could not understand why he was sounding calm the way he did. I expected him to call her to order."Did you hear what I just said? I said she called me names," I tried to make him see the gravity of what she had done. "She-"I heard you clear Zeba," he cut in. "But there is no point dragging this. You should let it be."Giselle grinned at me and walked away."How can you let her go despite what she's done?" I turned to face Franklin, not letting it go. His eyes remained

    - Zeba -When the princess came in, everyone had their eyes on her with what seemed to be admiration. I haven't seen them look at me that way before. I had no doubts that they honored me of course, but with Giselle, it was... different.But not to worry, I told myself. It wouldn't last for long. Whatever they felt about her will soon wear away.I wouldn't have had any problems with her if she had known her place and kept to it but since she wants to run her mouth, I might as well as shut it for her.After all, the little girl has no mother so I am not surprised she lacks manners.I have a million and one ways to deal with people but I will only give her a taste of what I can do. I waited for the right moment.But while the conversations went on, I couldn't help but notice it was geared towards her. All the noblemen began to talk to her about their proposals and plans and I got more infuriated.It was from the conversation I got to know that she might not be as simple as I thought she

    - Jason -I instinctively placed a hand on my stomach, waiting to feel any slight pain."Did you poison me?" I asked him. The seriousness dropped off his face, and he laughed. Morgan laughed long and hard, doubling over. He hit his fist on the table while he laughed, and I watched him, dumbfounded.He finally struggled to control the laughter with a wheezing sound, tears in his eyes."Gosh, you need to see the look on your face," he said. "I did not poison you, silly."I let out a deep breath I had not realized that I was holding."Now, why will I want to kill you and choose to do it by poisoning your food?" He asked, taking a cup of water from the table. He gulped it down and shook his head at me. "You looked so shaken. Are you that scared of death? For someone like you, poisoning is a disgraceful way to die, for even if I wanted to kill you, not that way."He laughed again."Morgan, that was not funny," I had to say."You think? You looked like a wrung chicken. You looked like your

    - Jason -I had just finished speaking with Alpha Sheka about very important matters of the pack and was about to leave when he called me back."That reminds me," he said. "I need to invite you to a banquet tonight. I was going to tell you earlier but I skipped. Also because of the matters at hand you know.""I understand alpha," I replied empathetically. "Where'd we get the invitation from now?""Oh it's not far," he said with a suspicious movement of his lips that could pass for a smile. "It's from my son.""Oh, that's interest...what!?" I was saying before my brain registered what I heard."Yes, my son, Morgan. He arranged the banquet specially made for me and you," he repeated and I still could not believe my ears."Did he say he wanted me at the banquet?" I still asked because I could not make sense out of it yet."He made a special request for you to be there. You are surprised, aren't you? Well, I am too. I hope you don't mind the banquet. I've always thought you two were...uh,

    - Jason -It took me a few seconds after I returned to my room, to notice someone was there. I turned around with a displeased frown on my face."What are you doing here, Morgan?" I asked him."It's Prince Morgan but yeah, I think I can let that slide since it's you and also seeing that you'd always stress me with having to correct you all the time," he said with a grimace."What are you doing in my room?" I sighed."I'm here to talk," he replied with a shrug. "Can't I talk to you?""What are we talking about and why in my room? Official meetings are not held in the bedroom.""That's it," he snapped his fingers. "Because this is not an official business.""I cannot tell when we began to have an unofficial relationship," I stated and he laughed."Maybe if you were paying attention more, you'd remember that I did mention it.""I don't want to be acquainted with you, Morgan," I said to his face. "I am fine the way we are.""Come on Jason, don't make this hard," he said, relaxing his back

    - Cleopatra -I eyed the greedy man and scoffed."What do you mean by this is not enough? Do you want four generations' wealth before you're okay?" I scowled at him."My lady, you know what it caused us to be able to cover up for you. And I have other people to settle and keep their mouths shut. You will have to remit more."I sighed tiredly."Okay fine. I am going to give you some more but that will be it. You must not complain nor ask me for anything after that. And you must not try to contact me because we can never be seen together. Do you understand?""Clearly," he replied."Good."I was able to handle him without anyone finding out about it, and I hoped it remained that way. Anna has promised to keep her mouth shut and only say what was agreed on if Giselle finds her, but I couldn't trust her.How could I hold her to her words? I looked into her eyes and saw the fear. Such a person can be easily l

    - Giselle -I was very eager for the reports, but I was disappointed."There were no prints," the experts told me. "The old lady poisoned herself to death.""You're trying to tell me she took her own life?" I asked for clarity even though I heard them. I felt like asking them why, but knew they wouldn't have an answer to that.The midwife was well, according to the reports given to me hours before I went to see her, and then she poisoned herself?This doesn't make any sense to me."There has to be a reason why this happened," I said thoughtfully as I paced around the room. "Why did she take her life? What made her do it?"I lifted my head, and Franklin was barely paying any attention to me."What do you think about this?" I asked, and he looked at me."I don't know," he said with a shrug."You don't think she'd take her life for no reason, right? What must have made her do it? Did someone threa

    - Giselle -"What?" I asked, my eyes following the direction of his hand. There was something at the edge of the bed, and I walked towards it.An old woman, obviously the midwife, was lying dead on the ground in the corner."Oh gracious heavens," I muttered, placing a hand on my chest. One of the guards moved close and picked up a bottle lying beside her."Looks like a poison," he said, lifting the bottle to his face and observing it. She had foam all over her mouth, and her body looked fresh like she could have died just a few minutes before we arrived.How did we not even notice all this while? And I looked all over the room. There were no signs of death anywhere.Gosh, I was this close to getting her, I lamented."Looks like murder," Another commented, what was going through my mind."What do we do now?" They asked me after moments of staring at the cold body beneath.

    - Kira -"Well?" Mother asked as soon as I got into the room. "Have you been able to find out something?""Nothing yet," I told her with a sigh. "And there are no signs to show me exactly what is happening.""I am sure that lady is up to something," Mother said thoughtfully with a finger on her lip. "I can tell it. She came to me and asked some questions, and that's typical of someone who wants to go looking for answers."I turned to look at her properly with some suspicion."You are not sure what she is up to? I think you should know since she discussed something with you. You think it's related to that," I pointed out."She said she just wanted to know a few things about her mother and asked me because I was Meredith's maid. At a point, I thought she was just asking because she wanted to know what her mother was like, but now I think something else is triggering her.""So? Is that something that should worry you? Do yo

    - Kira -I pushed his hands slowly off my body."There is no man but you, Xavier," I said quietly. "And yes, maybe I have a couple of male admirers, and I look at a few men, you've been the only one in my heart and the man I want to spend my life with. If only you had made moves to make me yours legally, maybe we wouldn't be here. Maybe I wouldn't even be looking at another man and admire him because I already have you.""Kira," he called softly, calming down. "Gosh, how can I be so insensitive? I'm so sorry, honey. I'm so sorry. I did not mean to make you feel this way.""Xavier, I have been asking you what you intend in this relationship. I have been the only one pushing, and it's not fair that you make me go through this, then think I am seeing someone.""You are right," he said. "I shouldn't have said that. I was just overwhelmed because you didn't sound trusting anymore, and most women sound like this when they have a man loving them somewhere, so I was worried. Look, I love you

    - Cleopatra -"What do you mean?" Anna looked at me questioningly."You know me well, my dear. I always keep to my word unless it's almost a matter of life and death, and in this case it is," I said, and she leaned back on the chair, her eyes not leaving mine."If that's the case, I don't think I have so much to worry about. I'm already on the end road of life.""This doesn't concern you alone," I said with a frown, slightly annoyed with what she just said. "I am involved in this too, and if you're too excited for the journey of the afterlife, then I am not, and this is not the way I want to go.""Too bad for you then, and why are you telling me? What can I do for you?" She threw at me, and I took a deep breath, holding in my anger."If it had nothing to do with you, I wouldn't be here," I said. "Now, will you shut your mouth for a moment so I can speak? You don't even know what I am here for.""It's almost not hard to tell, but anyway, you can go ahead.""After all these years, Frank
