After dinner, Selena walked to her grandmother's place. She didn't know who to turn to. She didn't want to burden her brother Farell on such matters. She wouldn't want him to think she was taking advantage of him because he just showed her his warm side. She didn't want to lose a friend she just realised she had. "Why did you come so late?" Her grandmother scolded her. Alice knew how her daughter was being treated and she feared for Selena's life all her life. " Grandma, I need help," she said, panting. Her grandmother wasn't even surprised because everytime they always find someway to torture the poor girl. "Who is torturing you this time?" She asked. She was already in the kitchen microwaving food for her. She knew about the leftovers that they made her eat. But then she can't fight the Alpha for it. "The Alpha King" she said like she wanted to cry. The grandmother raised her brow, surprised. She didn't know what they might have told the Alpha King to make him join those th
Her grandmother focused on her. "Then why are you here?" She asked. "I came here to make you sign a letter that would attest that I wouldn't run away if I get a loan" she replied. Her grandmother widened her eyes. "You want to get a loan?" Selena nodded. " From who? And how do you intend to pay back? You know how those people will behave to you if you don't pay back on time. Moreover, you don't collect any salary. How do you intend to pay back" she rushed out with a scolding look. " Grandma, calm down. I have it all figured out" she said with a stiff smile. " No Selena, I'm against it. I won't let you suffer in another person's hand." she said firmly. " Grandma, trust me this once. I got it covered" she said . She wouldn't mind the old woman for getting angry at her. She knew how much she do suffer whenever they torture her to the point of death. "No. Just take this money and go get yourself a phone" she snapped. Selena looked at the money and sighed. "Grandma, at this ti
"So it's his fault and he was blaming me" she thought, raising her nose. All through him taking her to his room, Selena was silent. She just let him have his way. She occasionally glanced at Lucius who was at their trail, who kept giving her a stiff smile. She watched him open the door and placed her gently on the bed, climbing immediately. He lay beside her and wrapped his arms around her and continued to sleep. She shifted her head and looked at Lucius who was still there. He placed his palm together, silently pleading with her to be calm. He then took his things and left. Selena wanted to stand up but Dylan wouldn't let her. She sighed knowing she didn't have a choice. All through the night she couldn't really sleep. Not because she wasn't comfortable but this was the first time she would be consciously wrapped in a man's arms. How then could she fall asleep? She also didn't want to wake up in his arms knowing that he wouldn't remember. She was looking for the opportunity for
Selena bowed and left. Her clothes were still dripping water but then she dared not to change. Checking her time, she knew Marcus wouldn't be in by this time. By this time he would already be in his office. She had forgotten that Dylan had taken over his office. She ran to the room and was glad to find it empty. She then started to clean. She wanted to do it fast so that she would be able to get out before Marcus comes in or even Hyrene herself. Hyrene on the other hand walked majestically to the Alpha King's room. Dylan woke up not too long after Selena left the room. He had gotten dressed. Lucius too had resumed as usual. He had thought he was going to see Selena but she had disappeared. Lucius's phone beeped and he checked it. "Your Highness, Tim is at the door," he said. " Let him in," Dylan replied. Dylan went to the door and opened it but then instead of seeing Selena, he saw Hyrene. He looked at Tim who gave a sad face. He knew the look Lucius gave him was simply telling
He wore a queer look seeing her. She had blush staining her cheek and he wondered what was going on in the room. "His Highness wants you," he said, still wearing his frown. Selena prayed that he wouldn't interpret what he saw to anything. If not she was a dead meat. She quickly came out of the room and followed Lucius. "Don't you want to change?" He asked her in a low voice. " No. Let's get to his Highness first before he explodes in anger" she said with a smile. She was oblivious to what Lucius was pointing at and he knew this. So as not to embarrass her, he just let it go. He was even looking forward to the interesting part on how Dylan was going to explode. When they entered, Dylan was just coming out from the bathroom, with him putting on a bathrobe. He was almost shocked to death when he saw Selena. "What in the heck's name are you wearing!" He shouted that Selena shrinked. Selena didn't know what was wrong with her dress aside from being wet. Although this was her night
Dylan pouted. " Was that guy in the room when you went to call her?" He asked. " So this is all about jealousy" Lucius thought and almost rolled his eyes. He definitely saw Marcus there but then he wasn't about to cause more trouble for the Alpha. They've not even spent a week in the pack and many things have happened. They needed a break. "I don't know," he replied. Dylan glared at him and went to his wardrobe. "I'm not angry because I'm going to get hurt if anyone touches her. There's nothing more to my anger" Dylan said to himself as he wore his clothes. Selena was returning to the Alpha King's room when Hyrene double-crossed her. Selena didn't know why she suddenly felt happy. She knew that the Alpha King must have chased her out for her to look this angry. "Where are you going?" Hyrene asked. Selena rolled her eyes. "As if she didn't know" she thought. She chose not to reply to her. "Let me tell you this, if you are doing anything funny with the Alpha King, you will
He took his coffee and took a sip from it. Tasting the nicely brewed coffee, the edge of his lips twitched. "Your Highness, I will definitely pay you back but it will be bit by bit" she said. Dylan snorted and this made her think that he doesn't believe her. "I promise you I won't run. For you to know, I made my grandmother write me a note that I won't run away" she said. She brought out the note from her pocket and gave it to Dylan. Dylan took the paper and looked at it. The handwriting was nice. He then gave her back the book. "Not interested," he said blankly. Selena, whose hope has been rising up, looked downcasted. She didn't know why he had refused to help her. "Don't be a cheapskate, your Highness" she said grumbled. She didn't even know that she just insulted the Alpha King. Lucius looked at her with a widened look. He didn't know she could be so bold to insult the Alpha King. He also looked at Dylan who glared at her. "Did you just call me stingy?" Dylan asked firml
Selena got confused. She didn't know what he meant by the worker ID number. "Don't you work in this place?" Dylan asked with a frown. He doesn't like someone who makes him explain himself and since he knew Selena, that's what he's been making him to do. She seems never to always understand him. "Yes I do," she replied. "Then they must have given you an identity number as a worker here or don't they?" He said firmly. Now Selena could understand. Among all those working in the park house, she was the only one that was not a proper staff member. Everyone has id cards but not her. She knew this was another round of explanation to the Alpha King which she didn't even know how to start the explanation from. "They do give," she replied. "Then?" He asked, looking at her raising his nose. "Your Highness, if I may ask, why do you need my ID number? Do you want to use it to deduct my salary? I tell you that is not needed. I'll get the money to you myself in cash" she rushed out. She did
" Dylan, you have to return home," Luka said to him. Now he was looking really good. Although he hasn't recovered because his wolf was still weak. Dylan had taken it upon himself to take good care of his brother and he succeeded. And just within a month he was looking so good. After Dylan's wedding, he had left the pack claiming that his brother who was the rightful person to the Alpha King had already arrived. Luka tried to talk him out of it but Dylan was so adamant. "You are supposed to be the king, not me," he said to Luka. "Dylan, I know but then I'm weak. A weak king can't lead. People see you as their deity now. You can't leave the pack stranded. People will take over,"Luka said. Now he's been married for three months and yet he has refused to go back home. He, Selena and Lucius had gone to one of the pack's Dylan had invested in. "Luka it is your responsibility and I won't do it for you" Dylan disagreed. Luka had come to persuade him but he wouldn't bulge. Selena came o
All through their return to the palace, Andrea was looking angrily at Selena. At some point she tried to attack her but the silver chain held her down. Dylan's father was the saddest of them all but none knew. He kept blaming himself for adopting a demon like Andrea. "After everything we've done for you, you still paid us with so much evil" Dylan's mother cried when they were back at the palace. The woman was crying bitterly and seeing the woman crying Andrea also cried. She didn't know that this was going to be the ending of all that she had done. The family had really treated her like their own daughter. Yes she was really bad to them. "I'm sorry" she said crying. Dylan's father glared at Andrea. “If I had known you are such a monster, I wouldn't have adopted you," he said before turning to his wife. “I'm sorry for bringing a demon home," he said as tears strolled down his cheek. No one had ever seen Dylan's father cry but this time he even cried more than everyone. He felt li
"I can't hear you well, '' Dylan said with squinted eyes. His body was already vibrating. Everyone was already scanning the room to see Andrea but they discovered that she had escaped. "When I saw her helping me, I was so happy and I told her that there was no monster in this place, only assassins. I even told her that you were not here because she was the one who called me that you went to Meribaa but all of a sudden she changed and striked me. I was still in shock when she had someone to tie me up. I kept shouting, asking her why she was doing what she did......" Luka paused and sighed. " What did she say?" Dylan's mother asked. " She said she hated to be my mate. She said she only wanted Dylan and she would get him. She said she would make him the Alpha King, that I do not deserve it. I pleaded with that I would make Dylan marry her but she wouldn't listen. I watched her as she removed my clothes, poured a chemical on one of the dead bodies that looked like my statue after clawi
Everyone looked at Selena as she ran to the monster they were trying to pull. Dylan, afraid that she would hurt herself, followed her. "What are you doing?" Dylan asked her. "Wait" she said to him. She moved closer to the monster and touched its damp body. The monster looked at her. It didn't even sneer as a normal monster should do. Selena could feel the dampness of its body and she thought something was not right. "Is there a swamp at Meribaa?" She asked. " Yes, a big one," Dylan replied. Now Selena was beginning to get what was going on. "Give me a hammer" she ordered. Lucius didn't even allow her to land before he sent someone to go get the hammer. He knew if he didn't do that there would not be anyone that would answer her because they thought she was crazy for touching a monster. They were all watching her like she was performing some magic. The hammer came and Selena hit the hammer on the monster. Then a cracking sound came. She hit it again and part of it fell to the gr
Dylan's father was still confused about what was happening. He knew that his son told him that he has no tail but now he has twelve. There were a lot of questions he needed to ask his son. People began to murmur in acknowledgement to what the Alpha King's father was saying. They felt the person who just wasted their time needed to be brought to justice. The elders who were threatened were so scared of talking because they knew that they would be exposed. Andrea, when she heard Dylan's father ask that question, her heart was beating so fast. She knew that she was about to get into trouble. She didn't know how Dylan got twelve tails all of a sudden. She knew that there was a mystery to it. She did not want to think about it because right now, it was saving her life that is more important. "Alpha, it is......" Dylan didn't allow him to talk. " I do not care about whoever told you. I just want to get out of this place" he shunted. He didn't want to expose Andrea to everyone. His eyes
People wondered what those two were saying to each other. They expected Dylan to come out with a frown or a sad face but he looked as calm as ever. Then some people started to doubt if he truly didn't have a wolf. They expected someone who is about to be disgraced and dethroned should be sorrowful. Dylan sat down on his throne and surprisingly he made Selena sit beside him. Selena didn't want to do this but Dylan wouldn't leave her. Frown wasn't only in the eyes of the council of elders but also some people from the pack. They felt that she was not yet the Luna Queen and she was seated in front of them like she was. While some didn't even see it as a big deal. Some even commented that it was Selena's beauty that made the Alpha King fall for her. As usual, elder Zinli was the one who came forward when Dylan was fully seated to start the questioning. "We all know the reason we are all gathered here so I wouldn't beat around the bush" he paused looking at the crowd before he continued.
For two days straight, Dylan was fighting the rogues. The news had spread out that the Alpha King lost his tail so the rogues wanted to see if they could take over the pack. Other packs too were already preparing but they were waiting for the time the Alpha King would step down. They all knew that Dylan was the most powerful king that has ever reigned. Nothing could defeat him, so their thinking was that he just lost his tail. Those rogues that came regretted their very action because Dylan poured out all his anger on them. He wasn't even showing them mercy at all. He made a tent at the bother and waited for those coming to attack his pack. For two days he didn't return to hi6me. All he just did was talk to Selena on the phone. He didn't even talk to his parents. It was Lucius that was talking to his parents. While they were there, he was making plans with Lucius on what pack to go to when he steps down. The rogues have left but Dylan didn't return home. He just didn't want to see t
She got dressed and decided to go back to her room but on her way to her room, she met Andrea. She wasn't looking so happy. She wanted to move closer to Selena but Selena gave her a smile, then pulled out a peach coloured handkerchief and wiped her face. Andrea quickly moved back, glaring at Selena. "I wouldn't kill you doesn't mean I will let you get close to me" Selena said. " Your days will soon be over" Andrea said between gritted teeth. Selena looked at her and walked away without saying anything. She knew she had to be careful in the palace. Dylan at the other end sat on his throne looking at the elders. He didn't acknowledge any. He had intentionally kept them waiting. He didn't even rush to do anything he was doing. Dylan's father was also seated. He also was quite tired of the council. When he saw his son approach he was just praying that he had found a solution to whatever was happening to him. Although in his heart, he knew that his prayers were futile. Even the person
"Continue talking," Dylan said to Farell who nodded. "I have been cleaning my office since I became the Alpha and then I stumbled upon some things," he said and brought out a file from his bag. He handed it to Dylan. Dylan opened the file carefully and in it he saw the letter filled with blood. It was like blood had splashed on it. Selena who was beside him tried to see what was in there and he showed her. She was shocked at what she saw. After she was done reading, she passed the paper to Lucius. Lucius wasn't surprised he just snorted. Then in the file was a recorder and video camera. Dylan played the recorder first and Andrea's voice came out of the recorder. Then followed by Willy's voice. Then after the video. It was the exact video that the elders played. There wasn't even a colour difference. Dylan didn't even know what to say. They just got to know that Andrea was the one who asked Willy to follow Dylan about and Willy captured the scene where Dylan came out in his wolf an
