PRECIOUS I instantly became alarmed and I clutched tightly on Duke's arm, lifting my head up to meet his gaze. A hand landed on my left shoulder and I shuddered, turning around to find Richmond's mouth near my ear. “Stay calm, no need to get frightened. It might be an issue with the power supply.” His words did nothing to soothe my racing heart. While what he said sounded through, it was not enough to ease the unsettling feeling at the pit of my body. “Ezekiel, come here this minute.” Duke called out, his voice raised as the muscles in his body flexed under the shirt he was wearing. In two minutes the supposed guard came running towards us. He was panting as he stared at us with wide eyes. He bowed his head. “Greetings, Alpha Duke and Alpha Richmond. Greetings Luna.” I nodded my head in acknowledgement and glanced at Duke. He looked directly at him as though he was going to kill him with his eyes. “What happened to the electricity? Why is there no light?” He rasped, his tone
PRECIOUS “This is no longer funny anymore.” Alpha Rodriguez's voice echoed across the room. His hands were placed behind his back, his face creasing into a frown. Richmond had mind linked them, explaining what happened and they had run back here the moment they could. Everyone was looking agitated including myself. I told myself that I was going to visit the girl in the hospital. It was only one of them who made it from the shot. And I had kept wondering how her family were going to take the news. “I am not going to be here while terrible things keep happening to my pack.” his eyes teared up, but he still tried to take them in. I felt my throat dry. Things were getting really sour each day and it needed to stop. I felt powerless and I didn't know what to do anymore. I know Alpha Rodriguez and my mates are doing their best, still, things have been getting tougher each day. “Is there nothing we could do to stop these things from happening?” Nate growled. I could hear his pain,
**Secret P.O.V** I laid on my bed when she walked in, her face full of smiles. I patted the space beside me and she chuckled before laying down close to me. Turning around, I laughed really hard remembering all that she has helped us achieve. It had been so funny taking them by surprise and my favorite surprise we gave them is the last one. “I know what you are thinking about sis,” she grinned. She wrapped her legs around my waist, bringing me closer to her and I inhaled her wonderful honeycomb scent. I smiled. “How can you know? Are you a mind reader now?” I teased, watching her roll her eyes at me. I hit her playfully on the arm and then laughed out loud. “I'm so glad about how things are going now. They don't know what is in store for them. They caused me so much pain, and I will give it to them in ten folds.” I said hoarsely, and I had every intention of fulfilling all I just said. Her smiles faded, her eyes distant like she wasn't here with me in this world. She got up an
PRECIOUS Should I tell them about the constant nightmares I've been having? Pacing my room, this troubled my mind greatly. I don't know if telling them will make them more worried. “I think you should tell them about this. It might help and make them understand who might be after us.” Michelle advised, but I didn't think she was right about what she said. I sighed. “I don't think that's right. You know, the lady didn't identify herself and I have forgotten most of the things she talked about.” She was pacing around in my head too. “Yes, you are right. But I still suggest that you tell them about this. You never know, this might be a lead to our success in winning these people. So I suggest that you tell them first. If it doesn't then know that you are no longer carrying the burden.” I sighed, deciding to follow her advice. I ran my bath and when I was done, I dressed in tight fitting jeans with a long blue polo. I carried my phone off the table I had kept it before going dow
PRECIOUS “The library!” I shouted in excitement, as I raced down the hall. When I reached it, I swung open the door and took note of every little detail. I checked on all the stools in the room and when I ran to the table, I still saw nothing. I knew it was going to be very difficult for me to get it right this time around, knowing this was a vast room. I ran to the romance shelf first and started checking from side to side and I still did not see anything. I sighed in confusion because I had thought that I was going to see the clue in the romance section. I went to the section for fantasy books and I kept checking each side of a book, my eyes caught on a very attractive cover and I smiled before pulling it out. The cover was so beautiful and I read the title, 'Curse Of The Wolves'. It was written by my favorite author in the world, Jane Doe. I had read all of her books and all are a masterpiece and I had no doubt that the one I held in my hands was going to be a great read a
PRECIOUS “Michelle!” I stomped my foot in frustration for the hundredth time today. Have you heard of a girl whose wolf doesn't want to help her? I guess no, now mine is a first. She chuckled again and I was ready to reprimand her when she finally said something. “This is all so much fun, Precious. Start already because there are so many things for you to do today. But sadly I can't help you out so goodbye and good luck.” With that she retreated back at the far end of my mind. I sighed, knowing I was still alone in this. I started on my job in finding the puzzle, since he said it was going to be better this time around. “What can hold a picture of a globe?” I placed my left hand under my boobs, while my right hand went up to my chin as I pondered on what the puzzle could be. I thought about it for a while but my mind was still blank. What could it be that has a picture of a globe? A globe, a globe. A picture with a globe, what has this again? I racked my brain until my eyes
NATE I glanced at the setting we prepared for our mate. There were so many pots of different dishes and numerous fruits and drinks for all. I was aware that she is going to love everything that we arranged for her. It had been my idea to set her mind at ease for a moment but it was Damon's idea to get her to solve the puzzle to make her brain more active and Duke, Richmond and Tiger helped with puzzles as well. Meanwhile, all I did was just stand by the side and laugh at the puzzles they were writing down for her. So much had been going on and fortunately for us, since the past few days, nothing traumatic had happened in the pack again but we knew that was not the end. Because there's no way an enemy will give you a taste of their medicine without actually making you swallow the said medicine. With that thought in mind, my brothers and I are making sure we are prepared for any unannounced attack. Luckily for us, the neighboring pack had agreed to send us their warriors whenever
PRECIOUS There hidden behind the toilet was a small black box, looking more like a wedding ring. My heart fluttered with butterflies in my tummy as I stared at the object which had kept me fidgeting for a long time now. “I finally found you!” I shouted excitedly, doing a little jump before I bent down and picked it up. I held the box like I had won a jackpot when realization hit me like a block of ice. My room wasn't the convenient place he was talking about; rather it was here, this toilet. I face palmed before chuckling softly. How did I miss this? I quickly lifted the lid of the blood and my eyes widened at the content. Blood rushed into my whole body, causing me to shudder with goosebumps making their way all over me. My left hand flew to my mouth, trying to stifle the scream that I knew was bound to come out. My body was quivering with excitement and I quickly took the beautiful diamond necklace and held it in my hand, all the while my eyes were full of tears. I blinked
