Chapter 11

Xavier’s POV.

I never knew my mother. The maids say she was the most beautiful human they had ever seen.

I would beg Lady Rose to tell me about her as a child and she would, with obvious grumbling. She was never to refuse my requests, I assumed that was father’s doing.

She was kind to me, her role in my life was more than that of just a servant. I would come to see her as the mother I never had.

Her warm hugs and that sweet, lavender scent that accompanied the embrace, when my father neglected or disregarded me as he usually did became my safe haven, my refuge.

She would speak highly of him, praise my father, speaking about the days of their youth and how ambitious he was. She would recount stories centred around his breathtaking aura, his unmoved resolve, eyes that pierced through even the darkest of nights and more tales about his awesomeness.

She made me love him, the beast that terrified packs and haunted children’s nightmares, my father, the heartless alpha of the b

    Chapter 12Alpha Damon’s POV.Everybody was useless. They all acted out of place and stupidly.My mind was plagued with Zara and her beauty as I sat, lost in thought, on the mahogany, sculpted chair seated comfortably at one side of my chambers. That skin that shone so pure and almost unblemished, her hourglass body, the tenderness of her very being, everything about her aroused my deepest, nastiest desires.Her soft, pale lips made me want to kiss them and rejuvenate them, made me wonder how much more beautiful she would be when she was well fed and better taken care of.I disregarded her all these years. The first time I saw her was at her pack. She was standing aside, dazing into the distance with eyes that carried sadness beyond her years, it was like she bore the burdens of the world all on her own but she was the only beautiful thing about the Red moon pack. Her sister too was a beauty, but Zara stood out.Her wretched father had treated her terribly since she was born, I heard

    Chapter 13Zara's POV."Hurry up, Acer," another guard said from outside the dungeon where I was stuck with a man I had never seen before.His smile was sinister. His eyes plotted as he moved. He wanted something but there was nothing in the dungeon, nothing but me. Could it be? Another attempt? Was this my curse? Fated to be abused by countless men who only saw me as a tool for their selfish satisfaction. Curse or not, there was only so much a girl could take.Acer, the haggard long man approached me, inching closer to where I sat on the dungeon floor.I had no strength left to talk, I only stared as he drew closer, watching keenly every step he took and every move he made, trying to predict the next one.Acer looked like a man with kids and a wife. He looked like the kind that cheated on his wife with every opportunity that he got and felt no remorse afterwards. He seemed like the kind to beat his wife and children whenever he had too much to drink. I could tell from the stench of

    Chapter 14Zara’s POV.What is fear? A crippling emotion that keeps animals alive? The instinctive feeling that has driven wolves and mankind alike to maintain a fairly mutual relationship over the years?What are love and hate but trivial, fleeting feelings when compared to real fear?I know that fear. It is the fear that keeps one alive, the driving force of survival, surpassing every other emotion there is and ever will be.We are but slaves to our fear, forced to secure a feeling of safety, with every means possible, including savagery and oppression.Our instinctive feeling to avoid fear is the reason wolves, since ancient times, have clung together, forming packs and attacking weaker packs, to achieve dominance and in essence, security in the presence of stronger packs, stronger predators.It is the cause of war, falling of civilisations, building of empires and betrayal amongst brothers. Atrocities and inhumane acts committed all in the name of fear.But to avoid fear is to ac

    Chapter 15Xavier's POV.I did not think father would do something so underhanded. He had an angry look on his face since I barged into the room, angrier than usual. His anger seemed to worsen the more I spoke but I didn't care. I was here to make a point and get some answers.I was tired of being the son that rolled over at the very hint of an argument with his father. I was angry with the way I was welcomed.He transformed before my eyes, releasing that powerful, huge, alpha wolf that aunt Rose told countless tales about. As the alpha he was the biggest in the pack, bigger than most other alpha, as the rumours went. He was the reason the blood moon remained the most powerful pack in all the East.His thick, black hair was just as dark as the hair on his head, blacker than the feathers of a raven. He stood out every full moon as we- me, him and the other wolves, ran free through the woods.I envied that beautiful, rich fur. I wanted it, even now as he attacked me.I remember the n

    Chapter 16Xavier’s POV.It was a cold, winter night. The winds blew hard and trees moved in accordance, dancing to the eerie tune with a rhythm every creature of the woods seemed to know and obey. Crickets sang and owls howled, I was starting to understand a little of what Beta Hugh said to me. It was as though all of nature was one that night, with one body- the woods and various mouthpieces- the birds, the insects, me.I was part of it, I was not just a witness of this beautiful masterpiece, I was here, contributing to the tune and I would soon become a proper mouthpiece of mother nature.“Are we close?” That must have been the fiftieth time I was asking Beta Hugh that same question.“We’re here, young alpha,” he said, before standing aside to reveal a pond, surrounded by tall men, standing, hooded, faces covered with dark, long cloaks. It was a small pond, the men were at least twenty, maybe thirty, standing well spaced out from each other.They were the ones who had been playing

    Chapter 17Xavier's POV"Come on, let's go Xavier," Kraken called out to me, before transforming into a hairy, brown monster before my eyes.The rest of the pack shared a semblance with Kraken's mighty, four legged monster. They all transformed after the initiation was complete and the moon hung at its peak spot in the night's sky.Stars were nowhere to be seen that night, only the red glow of the blood moon enveloped the earth.I remembered Beta Hugh's advice to become one with nature, the moon goddess and her celestial touch. The chilly, winter air, the deafening sound of the wolves all around me, the quiet of the woods beneath the howling, I took it all in, synchronising with all of nature."Now go! Run Xavier. Run," the moon goddess spoke to me once more. She asked me to run and so I did, moving faster than I ever had. I let go of every fear and doubt, I became one with nature, leaping through the woods on four limbs. I was Xavier, the son of the night.They were right after all,

    Chapter 18Alpha Damon's POV.I hate defiance more than anything. I had people executed for way less.As I sought to teach Xavier some manners for his insolent behaviour and talking out of turn, he showed a different kind of defiance. Unlike with everybody else, I could condone it that he defied me this time.I marvelled that he could avoid all my attacks, he was almost as fast as I was, almost as strong. No wolf had ever matched me like that, not since my father, the great white wolf of the east, also the cursed white wolf of the blood moon pack.I struck Xavier for the first time since our prolonged fight and he fell to the floor, his piercing blue gaze fixated on me, reminding me of a wolf that should be long gone, my father.That was it. I had won. I should pounce on him and teach him what happens when people step out of place and try defying me but I couldn't. I was mesmerised by the sudden resemblance to my father.The first time I saw Xavier's white wolf running through the dar

    Chapter 19Zara's POV"It's time to go."What did he mean? I wondered and stared with confusion at the short guard standing by my cell. He took a bunch of keys from where they were hung on his belt and unlocked the door of my cage."What? Why?" I asked in disbelief. They say that if you tie a chicken to a tree and eventually release it, the chicken would keep walking in circles around the tree even after it had been cut loose. I had begged to be released for so long but my cries fell on deaf ears. I had finally stopped screaming at the top of my voice and that was when I was heard, like the sound of my screams were delayed. I doubted the authenticity of it all, maybe these guards were trying to make fun of me."Orders from above, ma'am. We don't make the rules, we just follow orders. You're free to go." The other guard said. He was tall and chubby, the complete opposite of the guard who unlocked the door.I ran out of the dungeon and sat back down on the cold, concrete floors of the o

    Chapter 34Zara’s POVI should have ran when he walked in. I should have left the room as soon as he started walking towards me but I did not. I watched as the man who I was supposed to hate more than anybody else, more than my father, sister, stepmother and step brother try to comfort me. I sat silent and willing to the wolf that drank up my blood and the worst part is, I did not hate it. Who am I kidding? I enjoyed it. I wanted more, more of his tongue, his warm skin rubbing unconsciously against mine as he consumed more and more of my body.I suppressed the last hint of common sense that warned me to push him away and just went along with the flow. It was like his proximity melted away every bad feeling, every doubt. He was the one for me, my wolf cried. She loved the sexual tension, his masculinity, she was drawn to Alpha Damon and his seductive charm. Blair’s weakness for Damon threw me off balance, invaded my thoughts and synced her feelings with mine, making me crave for him

    Chapter 33Alpha Damon’s POV "Can I come in?" This was the third time I was asking to be let into a room in my own house. Normally, I would be furious, enraged by the imbecile who left me waiting, I hated waiting, it was right there on my list of things I despised, but this was no imbecile. Thoughts of the night before still ravaged my mind, filling it with highlights of a truly delightful experience."Open up. It's me, Ms Smith" What a stupid thing to add, "it's me?" I regretted my choice of choices right after I said it. Of course my voice already gave away the fact that it was me.I barged into the room after about five minutes standing outside, exposed to the eyes and ears of the palace.The room was dark, a lot darker than when I left earlier in the day. The windows were shut and the curtains were down, leaving the sensation of night despite the blinding afternoon sun of the day.It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the darkness and when they did, I saw the striking figure

    Chapter 32Alpha Damon's POV"Xavier? What are you doing here?" "I was going to ask you the same thing. I heard you were attacked last night," Xavier's eyes told a different tale than that of concern for me. He seemed more interested in the door behind me than the answer to his question. "Yes, I'm fine. You did not have to come all the way here for that." It was suspicious that he would want to see me after the last time we spoke and how it ended. All his actions pointed to an ulterior motive."I'm not surprised you didn't bother to tell me." Again, his words lacked conviction, they seemed empty, like he couldn't care less about my response.I couldn't care less about his true motives either. "I'm not doing this with you right now." The door standing behind me was the only thing separating Xavier and me from Zara and for some reason I did not want him to see her."Why are you outside here? You should be in your chambers, resting after what happened yesterday," his piercing, blue eye

    Chapter 31Xavier's POV"Wait! Master Xavier! You can't just leave," Ana screamed across the hall.But it was useless, her attempts to stop me from going to see this new girl that every servant talks about. I had more than a reason now, I think. She may have been hurt from the attack last night. I'm sure my father could handle himself, besides I'm probably the last person he wants to see right now, considering the attack may have been directly from the craziest alpha of them all, Alpha Zoran of the moonlight pack, the man I paid a peace visit to.If it was Alpha Zoren that masterminded the attack then I may as well avoid father for my whole life because he would never let me hear the end of it. I was barely praised the last time. What am I saying? I was not praised at all. My welcome hug was replaced with an attack from my own father. I hastened my steps to evade the persistent little omega that trailed behind. She was picking up the pace, almost running to keep up with my much long

    Chapter 30Xavier’s POVSix days of rest was more than refreshing, it was maddening. Having to sit around the house, eat and go right back to sleep was a routine I could adhere to. My only friend now that Kraken was away was Nick. Nick became my only source of entertainment whenever Kraken was away on a mission since we were kids. Him and the television in my room that I barely ever turned on. I am not complaining about Nick’s company but he never had an ear for instructions.He had a habit of doing everything he was told not to, like walking on my bed and ransacking the kitchen. The entire palace was tired of Nick.There were times I considered training him but once a naughty little dog, always a naughty dog, even now he was much older.The big, brown ball of fur that was Nick was over ten years old. His overgrown fur and weight made it difficult for him to move around the house as easily as he used to when he was much younger.“You are going to kill that dog with food one of these

    Chapter 29Zara’s POV.The only place rumors travel faster than light is the blood moon palace, across hallways, in the corridors, balconies. Everywhere there was life, there was talk.The news of Alpha Damon spending the night was all over the place before noon. Maids, guards, gardeners, cooks, even Lady Rose knew.That morning after Alpha Damon walked in on me in the shower and the interruption from the knock on the door, I planned to spend the rest of the day alone, in the room given to me but everybody else had other plans.“Can I come in?” came a voice at the door. It was familiar, a woman’s voice, a lady’s voice.I knew I should have locked that door, I thought, as the door made way to none other than the woman in charge of the household, Lady Rose herself.Of course she did not wait to be told to come in. The woman basically ran the place.“Come in,” I said effortlessly and sarcastically, hoping she got the message that she was invading my privacy.“How are you?” Her question w

    Chapter 28Somewhere in the Crescent moon pack,“Welcome back, Riana,” the old man sitting comfortably on his golden throne said to the young woman approaching him. She walked in the straight path dividing rows of seats and leading to the throne of the alpha of the Crescent moon pack.“The human world is beautiful, father,” the young woman proceeded to her father’s outstretched arms.“I missed you my dear.”“I missed you father but it has only been a week. You can not keep treating me like I am some child. I am twenty, a young woman now.”“That you are but you are still my child and it is my job to keep you safe.”“Is that why you locked me up in this village, away from the world for my entire life? Away from the humans, away from the other packs, even my betrothed,” she had a dreamy expression as she spoke the word, “betrothed.” Her honey brown eyes glistened with a light that was not there earlier. She was already getting lost in her own imaginations before her father’s words called

    Chapter 27Alpha Damon's POV"Who were they?" I asked Hugh as we walked towards my room. "I am yet to confirm who the attack was from, my lord. All I know is whoever wanted you dead must have gone to great lengths to achieve his goal. I'm glad you're safe." "I'm glad too. The imbeciles never had a chance.""You say you were in the girl's room all the while?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. Hugh walked in on me earlier that morning, interrupting my moment with Zara. Flashes of her shapely body under the shower, with water dripping off her, overtook my mind even now as I discussed matters of urgency with my beta."I was and I'm thankful I did not take your advice. I may have been dead if I stayed in my room with those treacherous guards right outside."Hugh's stoic face softened at my words. He was a huge man, taller than myself and bigger, at least in human form. His expression showed no emotions most of the time, causing him to earn the reputation of second only to me in ruthlessnes

    Chapter 26Alpha Damon's POV.You know the best thing about being rich and powerful? The fact that you get whatever you want from whoever you want. The worst thing about being so powerful is that it becomes too easy. Nobody willing to struggle, nobody willing to put up a fight, to be defiant.Defiance was written all over Zara’s face. It had been since the day I met her and it was even more decorated as she stood topless in front of me, in the dark."Enough, enough," I could not help but say. Her pulse quickened, faster than it already was."Ms White?" I asked amidst my uncontrollable moaning. She turned her head up to face me from her position in the floor, pausing temporarily and giving me a chance to finally think."A little faster?" Was all I could think of and say to her in that frozen moment."Sure thing, master." Oh, she turned me on so easily, so well. Her warm hands, her soft skin, everything about her made me want to lose control. "Get on the bed, Zara," I commanded, int
