Lana’s POVMy eyes trailed on her back as she scurries away and anger traveled through me, I clenched my hands tightly and my knuckles were as white as a paper, I barge into Alpha Lucas's room without showing the courtesy of knocking.He raised his head to see me and I saw his tailcoat on the floor and his gothic vest unbuttoned, I sniffed the air and I could smell sex, I bit my lips to control the anger I was feeling and looked into his eyes, he raised his brow giving me a skeptical look, maybe it was because of the way I barge into his room without knocking, but I don’t care.“What is your business with that slave?” I asked in a demeaning way, I tried so hard not to scream in his face and pull his hair out in an unladylike manner. “And what’s your business in what I have with her?” he asked calmly, removing his gothic vest, my eyes swept over his body and the fact that that thing got to taste what I have and what I want for me alone makes the vein on my neck bulge in anger “Why ar
Alpha Lucas’ POVI look at myself in the giant mirror in my room and I feel satisfied with how I looked in my new tailored clothes, the dark blue tailcoat suited perfectly, and I move away from the mirror.I suddenly heard a knock on the door and grumbled ‘Come in’ The door opened revealing Emma, my eyes softened when she entered the room “You called for me,” Emma said and I nodded“Yes, come here,” she said while I was struggling with my buttons, she moved closer to me and gave me a wary look before helping me with the buttons, I let her do it “Why did you call for me?” she asked“I will be leaving the pack soon to attend some meeting,” I said, and she paused what she was doing before she returned to buttoning my sleeve, “you won’t say a thing?” I asked.“Be careful and come back safely” she said, looking into my eyes and I smiled faintly “I will,” I said, and she nodded, and she took a step away from me when she was done buttoning the shirt. “I will call for you when I am back,”
Emma’s POV I decided to go back to my room immediately after I left Alpha Lucas's chamber, he had called me so early in the morning to see me, and weirdly, I wanted to see him too, my heart had raced just from hearing his name and I had found my legs moving on its own accord to see him. I chuckled at my silly thought and pulled the door open, I went inside the room and saw Grace dressing up for her daily chores. “you are just about leaving?” I asked. “No, I had to change my clothes, let’s go,” Grace said and I nodded. We both walked out of the room, heading to the kitchen. I met Lady Lana busy having a deep conversation with Lady Josephine, they stopped what they were talking about when they noticed our presence, Lady Josephine gave me a demeaning look and walked over to meet me.I was shocked when she landed a heavy slap across my face, my eyes widened, and I placed my left hand on my sore face, tears stings my eyes immediately, and I wondered what I did to deserve such humiliati
Emma’s POVI tried opening my eyes and I squinted back immediately as a ray of light shone brightly into my eyes, I groaned and tried to turn to the other side of the bed I was laying, and I felt sharp pain traveling all over my body“Easy, take it easy!” I heard Alpha Lucas' voice and I opened my eyes immediately, I saw him sitting beside me on the stool near my bed. “What are you doing here?” I breathed out, and he ignored me getting a cup of water, he handed the water over to me and I gulped it down immediately, feeling extremely relieved.“Thank you,” I said. I suddenly remembered what had landed me in this predicament, and I wondered about how Alpha Lucas found out about it and had come over to aid me.“You are severely injured, and the doctor said it will take some time for you to heal,” Alpha Lucas said and tears welled up in my eyes, he was about to stand up when I suddenly held his hand “I swear I didn’t do it,” I said, and he gently placed his hand on top of mine“Yes, I k
Emma’s POVThe drums beat so fast likewise my heart, I stood outside close to the willow tree that had absorbed a lot of blood, under the tree was Lady Josephine tied to a tree. Her poise and high standard reduced to nothing. She was sweaty, and her damp hair was glued to her skin, even with the distance we shared, I could hear her haggard breathing. I suddenly felt Grace holding my hand and I turned to look at her, she must have noticed how pale I had become, she smiled gently at me and I returned it back.Most of the ranked people in the pack were present, I saw Alpha Lucas's mother glaring at me and I looked away immediately, I know she is fond of Lady Josephine, and she will only blame me for this. I spent the night begging Alpha Lucas to change his mind, but he refused, telling me he needs to set an example for other people to learn.It all felt nostalgic how Lady Arya was beheaded, I felt sick, and I held Grace’s hand tightly hoping to comfort myself with that.Everywhere becam
Emma's POVI moved away from Alpha Kingsley when what he said suddenly sunk in, I remembered the ordeal I went through with Mike, and now Alpha Kingsley? Is he trying to implicate me?"Emma!" he called softly, and I smiled at him, my smile barely reached my eyes. "I promise to make you a lady when you come to my pack, you won't be a slave anymore and everyone will address you as Lady Emma," he said, and I almost burst into laughterSuch a daydream!Was he expecting me to fall for such words, girls like me know our place in this world and how men could easily manipulate us to become what we wished not, men matter but women don't, and as the saying goes, the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know."I am sorry Alpha Kingsley, I can't do that. My loyalty belongs to Alpha Lucas, I shall go now" I said and show some courtesy, he suddenly held my hand, stopping me from walking away from him, I furrowed my brows immediately looking at him, but his face held no emotions whatsoe
Lana’s POVMy heart pounds against my rib cage and I wander across my chambers, the plan has failed again and again. Each failed plan makes me angry more than the way I was before, Mike failed me and after colliding with Lady Josephine to have her killed or banished, Lady Josephine ends up losing her head.My steps halted when I saw Luna Victoria approaching me, the faint smile on my face fell immediately I saw how angry she looked, her steps were not as elegant and poise as she always maintained, her bustle sweep the floor, and she walks briskly to meet me.“Luna Victoria!” I called and went forward to meet her, we both stopped walking when we were a few inches away from each other, her chest rose and fell rapidly and at any moment her corset could break, I held her hand walking her to my chambers, she sat down on my bed and I sat down beside her.“What happened at the council? Did the alpha finally submit to the council members?” I asked, and Luna Victoria cleared her throat.“Lucas
Lana’s POVThe anger in me is incomparable, I can’t believe Alpha Lucas will continue choosing that thing over everybody, I have never wanted to see someone die the way I wanted her death, I want to see her bleed to death and Fred her remains to the vultures, kill those vultures and burned them.I hit my dressing table fiercely, I suddenly heard a knock on my door and I remembered I had called for Naomi discreetly, I needed to carry out a plan that even the alpha won’t be able to resist and fall for, I have discussed this with my dad before, and he wasn’t in support of it but right now, I am going to go on with my plan either he wants it or not.“Come in,” I said after clearing my throat, the door creaked open and Naomi came inside, it was almost the middle of the night when most people are asleep, and I am sure no one will see her entering my chamber “You called for me, Lady Lana,” she said and I nodded. “I am tired of Emma surviving each of our plans, it is getting me riled up, an
