Alpha Lucas POVI halted my steps when I saw Beta Royce approaching me, he held a diligent smile on his face when he saw me, and he moved swiftly to meet and slightly bowed his head “Alpha Lucas” he called, and I grumbled, he furrowed his brows immediately after he noticed how stressed I was. Beta Royce has been my secret confidant for years, no one knows the relationship that exists between us.“You look stressed my lord,” he said, and I sighed, I gently placed my hand on my eyes, rubbing it softly. “Do you want to talk?” he asked again “Yes, I need to talk to someone and there is no better person that I can talk to but you” I ” said, and he nodded in understanding “Then we should go to your chambers, it won't be nice if anyone sees us here or eavesdrop on what we want to talk about,” he said and I nodded. We started walking away from the dungeon.We entered my chambers together, and I started pacing around the room. “What is bothering you?” he asked and I sighed “It's about Emma
Emma's POVThe night I was thrown into the cell was filled with hope, I had hoped that Alpha Lucas will definitely come and save me the following day, he wouldn’t let anything happen to me, even with the awkward state I was in I tried to sleep comfortably in the bed.I woke up the next day, with my back gently laid against the wall, I waited for him to visit me in the cell or have his men release me, but I got nothing and started counting each second that passed. I was almost giving up when he came, and I was glad, I was happy when he came, but at the end of our conversation I was left with nothing but heart break, the hope I had was gone, and I could see he didn’t believe me, he had doubts.He should have known I will never do such a thing, I will never hurt anyone, I will never lie to anyone even if I hate the person, I spent the rest of the day crying, I couldn’t believe the man I have come to love so much could let me down, I blamed myself for letting my guard down.I spent anoth
Emma’s POVI suddenly fluttered my eyes open, I was laying on my back m, and I oddly felt comfortable , I furrowed my brows when I noticed I was laying on a soft surface and I slowly touched the surface with my hand, it was a bedI was shocked! I stood up abruptly and look around the room, I was in an unfamiliar room and I don’t know how I get here, the last thing I remembers is walking in the forest and I was kidnapped, blindfolded and lost consciousness.I suddenly noticed the clothes I was wearing and furrowed my brows, instead of my old brown gown. I was wearing a new silk skirt with floral pattern, I can’t remember the last time I did and my skin feel so smooth and clean.I was scared, I didn’t know where I am or how I got here, I look around the massive room and the king size bed I laid on, I can’t remember the last time I slept in such a soft and beautiful bed. I suddenly heard the creaking of the door and I stand in alert, my eyes fixed on the door and the door was pushed op
Moonlight Pack Lana’s POVThe sound of the breeze was music to my ears. I raised my glass of wine up and swirled gently with an unfading smile on my face."Finally! It was a success," Naomi said, and I chuckled. It still feels like a dream that finally Emma is out of the pack. I never thought I would live to see that day after so many trials. Like the saying goes, consistency is the key."It is a success indeed, but I expected something far greater. I have hoped Alpha Lucas will have her beheaded and she won’t exist anymore for good, but this is good too; I don’t have to see her annoying face again." I said, and Naomi nodded. I wanted her dead. I wanted to see her head hung on the willow tree, and I will pass it each day to relish my soul and smile at my victory."Of course it is a success; we didn’t get to have her killed, but this is good too. At least Alpha Lucas will be able to think straight and won’t have to make judgments based on personal feelings. I felt he had failed as an
Moonlight PackAlpha Lucas POVI look out through the window, and everything I see is void. I ball my hand into a fist and walk away from the window.I miss her!The thought of Emma clouded my thoughts, and I could hardly function. I dreamed about her smile and the sparkle in her eyes, the way she walks, and how she frowns when she is angry. The thought of not having her in my hands anymore left me yearning.I suddenly heard a knock on my door, bringing me back from my reverie. "Come in," I said, and the door opened. I saw one of the guards, who bent his head to acknowledge me. "What is it?" I asked "The court members are waiting for you, my lord; they haven’t been able to see you for awhile now," the guard said, and I snorted.It’s been three weeks since Emma left the pack, and I am barely holding onto my sanity. I find it hard to address my people without the thought of seeing her invade my thoughts. The faded brown color reminds me of her, and when I see any of the slaves wearing
Alpha Lucas POVI look through my window, and I see the sun's yellow rays on the earth; they are cascading down the earth and setting soon. I sigh at the beautiful view, which looks sad to me.I miss her!I can’t think straight. I want to see Emma so badly; she has become a drug that I am addicted to. I started pacing around my room instead of attending to the files that are packed on my desk. I couldn’t think straight, so I couldn’t perform my packing duties.I suddenly remembered Emma has a friend she is very close with and smiled. Maybe I will be able to get something from her. I needed to talk to someone that could give me a clue as to where Emma is.I stepped out of my room and went over to the slave chambers. I ordered the guards to stay back while I went to look for her friend myself. As soon as I arrived at the slave chambers, everyone bowed their heads to acknowledge me, and I grumbled some incoherent words or, better yet, ignored them."Where is the slave that shares a room
Lana’s POVI screamed as I threw the flower vase in my room away. My heart boiled with anger, and I couldn’t believe what Alpha Lucas said—he wanted her, yet he didn’t notice me after everything I had done for him.I sniffed, trying to control my anger, but I can’t. I have spent three days inside my room, trying to control my rage, and not once has Alpha Lucas checked on me to see how I was faring.I moved away from the shattered vase and it pierced my feet. I hissed and walked to my bed with blood trailing my footsteps. My door suddenly opened and I saw a slave entering the room. I tilted my head immediately to look at her."What do you want?! Why are you in my room!"I screamed, and I saw her flinch with fear brimming in her eyes."I am sorry, Lady Lana. Luna Victoria sent me here to take care of you," she said, and I scoffed."I don’t need your care! I am not a child." I screamed, and she bent down to pick up the broken vase, ignoring my yelling. Tears welled up in my eyes, and I bu
Alpha Lucas POVI walked aimlessly in the forest, and I had no direction to go; the thought of seeing Emma was the only thing driving me deeper into the forest.I have come to the conclusion that staying in my chamber, getting riled up, destroying things, and killing people will not get me to see Emma; I can only see Emma if I go look for her.I had called an impromptu meeting and informed the council members about my departure from the pack. Even though their eyes didn’t agree with my decision, their mouths were unable to say anything, and they just nodded.Everyone is afraid of provoking me; I am just like a grenade that can explode at any time. I left the affairs of the pack in their hands, and I don’t know when I will be coming back.I sigh and look at the direction of the cascading sun; the night is almost upon us, and we have been in the forest for most of the day."Alpha! Where should are we heading to? We have been walking aimlessly in the forest," one of my guards asked, and
