Jessica POV.Jax has been waiting for me to give him feedback on the success of my mission. When I heard of the celebration taking place I was filled with joy knowing that would be the best option for me to carry out my mission.I went in search of a sorcerer. Sine Alpha Gregory father started the law. It was forbidden in the wolf pack. And ust as the saying desperate things called for desperate measure. A newspaper caught my attention due to the drawing I saw on it. I bought it, went home and began reading it. There was no evil about the sorcerer but I was ready to give it a try. I punched the number I saw there and it went through." Hello" I heard from the other side of the line, I locked all my doors and windows to avoid anyone prying on me." Hi, I am speaking to Lily the sorcerer? I asked." Yes, how may I help?" I would like us to see one on one, if you don't mind?" You are who? She asked." I am Jessica" I replied, hoping she would reject me." Tomorrow before nightfall, mee
" She poisoned your drink," the guard said confidently.I was confused on how he found out because I am very sure no one was there when I was adding the portion, immediately I put my acting skill into play." I didn't poison your drink besides why will I do that? I asked, crying.I was hoping alpha Gregory would stand up for me as he used to, this time was different, he sit afar watching at us emotionlessly without saying a word, the next thing I didn't expect from him escape from his mouth." Search her," he commanded.It was as if the ground should open and swallow me, Greg will never forgive him if he found out all the attrocities I committed against him and his mate before I could say a word, the female guard starting searching every part of my body when she couldn't see anything she went for my bag. My heart kept beating more than normal, and finally she brought out the portion." Jessica, what have I done to you that made you want to kill me? Eleanor asked.I wanted to reply to
Joey POV.The person in the cloak who gave me warning about someone plotting my death has been giving me a sleepless night. I didn't see her face that night. I was hoping I would see her some day. I couldn't explain the reason I felt at ease when she was talking to me.Today's night was the Eve celebration of Alpha Gregory and his mate's marriage bond. Or should I say the celebration of catching the culprit red handed?The damage she has done was beyond control but hopefully everything would fall back in place. I went to survey every part of the pack to make sure that everything was put in place for a successful exposure of that vixen. I know we needed to be careful in carrying out orders so as not to expose ourselves. I called Philip who was standing a little distance away, trying to make sure everything was fixed. I admire his enthusiasm and I know he would make a fine warrior very soon. He was already gaining my favor and that of Greg. " Sir, " he answered, standing before me wi
" Beta, can I speak to you for a moment?" He asked.I followed him outside and asked him to speak." Jessica said she wanted to see the Alpha," he said." You are lucky not to say this in his presence your head would have been rolling on the floor, for now none of you should reply to her till we are sure on what to do with her." I saidThe guard bowed and left, I returned back to my position as I kept watching alpha Gregory lost in his own thoughts, that is how he has been. I was even thinking that maybe their main celebration won't happen tonight so I speak up." Instead wallowing in self pity, why don't you talk to Eleanor? Your celebration was supposed to be held after the eve." I said, trying to bring him down to earth." The celebration won't be held besides who wants to be with this jerk who trusts his best friend blindly?"" I think your mate wants to. You haven't tried talking to her, I think you should swallow your pride and do the needful."" She won't give me a listening ea
Alpha GregoryI watched as everything about Jessica unfolds before me. Who would have thought that the lady I called my best friend would want to poison my mate? I ordered the guard to search her as she claimed to be innocent. Unfortunately, they found a bottle containing a potion on her.I asked the guard to arrest her, put her in prison till I have decided what I would do to her." Alpha, please listen to me," Jessica pleaded.Her level of betrayal was top notch and that makes me feel disgusted by her. I didn't even want to see her face. After Eleanor interrogated Eve hunter, I went up to Eleanor at least to show how sorry I was but I was caught off guard by her words." If this didn't come out, would you have come to me?" She asked, almost in tears.How can I tell this woman standing before me that I was ashamed to stand before her? I thought I was guilty and that's why I just couldn't defend myself nor face her, not until I was proven innocent. I tried to touch her face but she m
I went to search for Eleanor in her room but she was nowhere to be found. I inquired from the housemaid her whereabouts and all they could say was that she left wearing her warrior outfit alongside her sword. That was what led me to the training center. I watched as she fought my best warriors with her strength and determination. She won the fight, not that I doubt she will.But it's not yet over. They were about to announce the winner by raising her hand up when I came out." How can you announce the winner when she has not fought me?" I said, picking up my sword from its shield.No one questioned me, rather they all draw back making a space for me and Eleanor. If she wouldn't listen nor talk to me then let's fight, I said within myself." As long as you won't treat me like a maiden because if you dare do that would be the end of the fight, '' Eleanor said, authoritatively.Did she just ask me not to be soft on her? I smiled at my mate's bravery. Is she asking for her dead wish or
Jessica POV" Mother, help me beg him not to take away my child from me, please" I cry out to my mother as I watch the retreating step of alpha Gregory.She didn't say a word for some minutes, tears flowed freely from her eyes like a river. For the first time in my life, I wished I had listened to my father." Taking your baby isn't an issue here, the question is will you ever come out alive from here?" My mother asked, jotting me out of my thoughts.I never thought about it. I was focused more on my child. Filled with fear, I slid down crying." Mother, we need to try. At least father can talk to him, right? I asked, wishing my hope wouldn't dashed out." Your father doesn't want to have anything to do with you. He was right, if I had not taught you to claim what you want, you wouldn't have been behind bars. I am sorry for the path I lead you." My mother apologised."You were the one who ruined my life. And you are simply going to apologize? Your apology would be accepted that easily
Eleanor povAfter the eve party of my mating ceremony which was not successful, the main mating party that was supposed to be held at my father's house was postponed by Greg.Since then I have been snubbing him, acting like he never existed. Sometimes I miss him, the way he looks at me, the way he adores my body with his touch.the way he worshipped it with his eyes before taking me to cloud nine. I thought of all this within me as my face beamed with a smile." Down to earth Eleanor" Diana said, tapping me on my shoulder." Gosh, you startled me," I said , trying to hide my blushing face from her." Girl, you missed him, didn't you?" " Hell no" I shouted and pretended not to." You do. I have been standing before you for hours and you didn't notice me. I watched the way you bite your lip, fiddle the hem of your clothes, if not one thing I would have said you are trying to seduce me"" Diana," I called." What? That is the truth besides I am not making it up " she said, crossing her
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
