Chapter 41Jessica POVI opened my eyes while I scrutinized the place I was and I recognized it to be the chamber of the physician in our pack but a familiar scent hit my nose and it was my mother. She gave me a killer look or should I call it a look that said are you insane. I can't remember for how long I have been unconscious but the way my body reacts to things shows I have been lying for a long time. I raised a questionable look at my mother." Don't look at me like that Jessica. I didn't ask you to kill yourself to get rid of your rival."" Mother, what are you insinuating? We were attacked" I feigned ignorance of what she said even though what I said is not the truth." I just hope you were telling the truth, let it not be that I was the one who taught you all that."" Mother, this is not the right place to have such conversation, it might make people to start suspecting me of what I am innocent off"I pouted my lip at the same time making a baby face but to my utmost sur
Jessica POVI was thinking when I saw someone standing on the door with a killer look." Father"That was all I could say with my head bowed low and waited for him to lashed out like he always does." How are you feeling today?"He asked, taking me by surprise.I stared at him for sometime before I was able to find my voice." I am fine, as you can see. At least I am no longer unconscious," I replied, dryly " Well, it is great news that the moon goddess gave you a second chance to repent of your wrong actions. I hope you would make the right decision from now on" he said, giving me a look.I knew it won't be long before he lashes at me. That's my father, always on the righteous side. I just had to play along… for now. So, I just nodded in approval though I was angry at how everything was turning. I just have to play along with anyone that came before exposing myself unknowingly. For the first time in a decade , my father and I were able to have a daughter and father bond. It was s
Eleanor POV.I have been in chains for the past few days. All I did was to keep waiting for the voice of a mate and whenever it came I felt relaxed and unbothered while sometimes I would shut him out then a thought of escape came into my mind. When the sun rays shone from the hole in the prison I was able to use it to look around and I saw some rock laying on the floor. I picked it up and began throwing it on the wall trying to hear unusual sounds. There was no day that past I won't throw rocks on the wall of the prison. I was doing it when the maid brought food and sat in the prison as if there was a banquet going on. My stomach rumbled with noise that made me curse it. My throat was so dry that I couldn't say a word to the maid until one of the maids came forward and whispered into my ear. "Don't die yet, you are a warrior and you must avenge my father's death. In return I will help you with the escape."I was unable to recognize her face due to the darkness of the prison room,
Diana's POV.I have heard about our alpha and his ruthlessness but then I cared less until the day I heard the death of my father. I was saddened and heartbroken for months before I got back on my feet. My father was late to the meeting because he was attending to his sick daughter who happened to be me. I saw my mother cry all day and refused to eat anything because her mate was dead and to make matters worse the Alpha refused to give us the body so we could give him the last respect.Since then I swore on my father's death, I was going to make his life a living hell by avenging my father's death even with my last drop of blood. I was lost in thought when one of my brothers sat closer to me." Are we letting him go scot free after killing our father?" He asked, his eyes filled with anger. I stared at him, sighing deeply. Although we are on the same page, I don't think it was the best to let him in on this deadly mission." We can't do anything about it besides we can't fight the
Jax POVHow dare she call me a lonely wolf? Chopping her head was all I crave for and I will do it in the presence of her mate!Did she dare use her mate to mock me? I thought while laughing out loud. Due to my anger and taste for killing, I sent out a message to all the maids cleaning up the dishes in the prison room that if any of them was one second late to the time set, then they would have their heads beheaded. Fortunately for them, none of them disobeyed my orders.I was walking back and forth in my room while using my fingers to trace the wall when what she said repeated in my mind." You are a lonely wolf, even if your slut occupied the gap"For the first time my wolf was so happy that someone finally said the truth to me but I shut him out. I wasn't ready to hear any of his laughter.My thoughts were all rushing in and for once in my life, I felt truly angry and ashamed. I closed my eyes as I reminisced over what happened years back. FLASHBACK"Jax, what is wrong with you?
I was waiting for him to pick a fight with me rather he went on his knees, his pains etched deeply in his face. That same night, the moon was still full as if eager to bear witness of whatever I was about to do. " I cursed the day you were born. Until your death, you will be empty. Your mate will reject you and you will remain lonely till you are killed the same way you killed us, your parents." He said, his eyes filled with disgust.There was a forlorn expression on his face as if he was expecting all of these. I sneered at him, clearly not minding his trash! Who cares about a fucking mate that might become my weakness?I can have as many chosen mates or sluts as I want. And did he just say that someone was going to kill me? I will love to see them try! But for now, I need to deal with him. "Well, since this is your last wish, greet mother for me up there." I said, smiling. I walked majestically to him and cut off his head with the sword in my hand. Taking the head, I spat on it
As I was Stomping on my feet when talking to the guard, something was off about him. I walked round him screening him from head to toe. He didn't have the scent of someone from the pack. My wolf, Ella, who had been calm, sprang to life as she giggled. She was talking nonstop in my head about the guard. How the style of his hair was a perfect fit to his masculine body. Ella was so happy that I wanted to shut her out but the next thing that came out from her mouth…in my head were the words I wasn't expecting.Mate!Ella was as busy asking me to accept our mate. I was eager to accept him but I don't need anyone to stop me from accomplishing my mission.I frowned when I saw he wasn't from the pack. Who was he and what was he doing here? " You were not sent by Alpha Jax." I told him, straightforwardly. " You are right about that. You should see your face like a kid being caught doing something wrong." He replied, laughing.I swear I was tempted to kiss that mouth of his and I looked at
Gregory POVI couldn't believe how foolish Max would be to come to my territory. " What do you want?" I asked him with a stern voice." Eleanor, damnit"If he was not someone closer to Eleanor, the mention of her name out of his mouth will be the end of his life." You want Eleanor? Go to Jax, that is where she is. Fool!" I said, controlling myself from strangling him.Then I added," If you don't have anything more reasonable to say, my guard will escort you out."" What sort of a mate is so careless with their mate? I thought Alpha wolves are extremely possessive and protective? Are you sure you are an alpha…"Before he could continue talking, I rushed to Max with a blow on his face."That's for you daring to say a word about my mate and I. Next time, I won't be so lenient!" I said, throwing him a dirty look. " You shouldn't have done that. Do you think Eleanor will be happy with you for hitting her best friend?"" Are you blackmailing me in my territory?" I asked, scoffing. He al
Eleanor POVAfter the event we went home, on getting home I was hoping to be in the hands of my mate or possibly have a taste of him when I remember he has not rested from the journey he went on.I became angry at myself for being selfish at this moment. Surprisingly, he picked me up in a bridal style. My anger vanished into thin air as I crossed my hands around his neck."How about making a mini us." He asked, as he teased my nose with his.I was so ashamed to answer him as I buried my head on his neck cranny after nodding my head slightly. We entered his room and he placed me gently on the bed like a gentleman that he is.He kissed me and I responded hungrily. I have been starving since he went on his journey and this is the time I want to be filled with his passionate love making.He gently unzipped my dress as he tasted my neck with his tongue, digging his cannie into the exact mark on my neck he made last Time. Throwing my cloth on one side of the room as he stared at me only in
Alpha Gregory.I was surprised at how my mate got here before me. I turned to search for the voice that spoke to me but I was in for another surprise.I stared at the image of my mate being chained on her two hands sideways with a wide animal that kept going in circles. I tried not to fight the animal as I was looking for a way to break the chain. I felt a sharp pain on my stomach then it happened that the alligator used his tail to wipe me on my stomach then he snarled at me.The pain was beyond ordinary, I waited a little bit for the pain to reduce but it seems the pain on my stomach would be permanent.I hit my hand on the floor facing the huge alligator, my eyeball turned to that of my wolf same as my finger turned to that of my claws. We kept moving in circles till I jumped on his back digging my claws into his neck that had no sharp edges.Out of pain the alligator hit his body on the floor with much pressure which made me fly higher hitting my back on the wall which made me s
Eleanor POV.I was confused on how I would start addressing them but I know I will have to do it anyway I can. I stood before the hefty warriors and began to speak."This may not be our last fight but definitely it will be for some of us, we are going to fight as one body not as individuals." I said, staring at them before I continued."Use tonight to spend some memorable time with your loved ones, the moment we are out of here then we are facing our death without thinking about anyone at home. It is a fight for freedom, for our family and for ourselves at large." I shouted at the top of my lungs, raising my hands up."Any questions?" I asked the moment I stopped addressing them."We heard that Alpha Jax never loses a fight without tricks. How are we going to overcome that without losing to him?" One of the warriors asked, after raising his hands up. I didn't think about that part for a moment so there was no answer I could give at that moment to ease the tension grewing in their mid
Alpha JaxI yelled at my guard, none of them were able to replied instantly they all bowed their head, I went to were they were kneeling raising the head of Ken by using my finger to raise his jaw up."Why did you come back without completing the mission?" I asked angrily."The whole place was deserted, we couldn't find anyone so we burnt their houses after searching everywhere for them." Ken answered.I was happy they didn't return without doing anything. At least something was done. Let's see how they would be able to cope when they find out that their houses have been burnt to ashes.I dismissed all of them, I went to inspect everything going on for the preparation of the war. Everything was all intact, those training were training so hard, those making the sword and the rest were equally doing it as well.Being satisfied with everything going, I decided to go for a run on my four legs because it has been long. I went for a run so I ran as my feet can take me into the woods.When I
Kyle POVI placed my lip on her inorder to make her calm which I achieved. When she got herself she pushed me away from her, sitting down on the seat as she tapped her feet on the floor.I stared at her like a lost puppy. I was confused about letting her be or persuading her to understand me but if she blew my cover of where I kept those missing people I won't blame her.I refreshed myself, dressed up and she was still in that mood. Will she ever come out from the shock of what she saw earlier? Therefore I went to her, raising her chicks up and keeping an eye contact with her without blinking."Diana, you have not said anything since we arrived." I tried to make conversation with her."I don't have anything to say to you besides you would end up doing what is in your mind. Tell me what is the point of talking to you?" She yelled.I understand her pain, anyone in her position will do the same, I hope she won't run away from me because of this. My wolf was silent all through this period
Eleanor POVI was covered with kisses by Maria, despite trying to make her stop she refused. She held my hands firmly and I began to imagine myself and my mini me.I was surprised at my own thoughts, not for once has it ever crossed my mind. The day my mom once mentioned about it, I flamed up but here the feeling is heavenly that I wished everything would end soon.There was a woman and a man standing before whom I believe Should be their parents. I raised my head up meeting their eyes which they remove by bowing their head."There is no need for you to stand here watching us, join others in the room, dining would be served as soon as possible." I said, smiling at them."We are grateful for your kind gesture and we didn't know how to appreciate you even in the future." Ezekiel's father muttered in appreciation."I am happy you are here with your family, that is what matters a lot, I don't want you to think much or blame yourself for not being able to defend your family as the man of t
KYLE POV.When I saw everything had ended for the meantime, no shadow, and no scary wolf creature. The circy heart I collected and the one Eleanor collected was well placed in a liquid jar which was tightly sealed so that no one would be able to make use of it to create another monster wolf.I was sure that everything was put to place before searching for Diana, it was easy to find her because everyone was still hoping and waiting for the Alpha to return safe and sound.I really need to show Diana who I am and if she accepts me that way then I would not have issues marking because marking her without her knowing my identity does not suit me well.I want her to know who I am before claiming her to be mine forever and I hope it works out well for the both of us."Diana, do you have any spare time?" I asked."Sure, hope all is well with you?" She asked in return.I stretched out my hands to hands luckily she placed her hands on my hands. I led to my chamber, making her float in the air a
ALPHA JAX POVAt the snap of my fingers, my guards brought in Ezekiel's family. Ezekiel wanted to go to them but I blocked his view from reaching them as I stared at them."Tell me, what you know besides I am curious on how you were able to leave your pack at this critical moment without being caught." I said to Ezekiel."It is easy for me to escape because the guards were all busy protecting us from the creature that invaded our pack."I went closer to him, I allowed my Alpha aura to fill the whole room since he seemed not to be afraid. I stared at his face for a long time then back to his family and I dragged his sister by her hair."That is painful." Ezekiel's sister screamed"Only your big brother can save you from this painful moment." I said mockingly."Fine, I would say everything I know about Alpha Jax and his journey but you have to let my family leave here alive." Ezekiel said emotionless.I stared at the young boy who is trying so hard to save his family from my hand. What
Alpha Gregory.The moment the X signs disappeared, I was full of Hope that the road would be clear just for me to see many arrows which were planted on the floor.There is no place one can place a foot except placing it on the tip of the arrow and that means we have to lose our blood before getting to the place."All of you would have to wait here for me until I return." I said to my guards"I don't think that would be possible." Phillip replied."Why do you think so, Phillip?" I asked."Well, Luna asks me to look after you and I promise to do it for us." He said seriously, earning a sarcasm laugh from us."...And you think, you can do that?""Alpha, I know you to be the strongest of all Alphas but please don't let me stay behind." He pleaded.I looked at Philip, I didn't know what to say, I took a deep breath before matching my feet on it. The pain was excruciating that I grunt and yelled at the same time.I kept more without turning back to check if Phillip and others followed until
