RAYELL.When I opened my eyes this money, his charming and manly face was the first thing I saw. It was the first time that I would look at his face up close like that.We were so close that I could see the tiny pores on his face, his eyes that were like black gems twinkled in mischief and were full of smiles, it made me wondered what he was thinking and what he had in plan.His thin lips was curled upward into a tiny smile and his warm breath fanned my face, tickling my senses.He was so handsome. He was striking, as if angels had carved his looks, no one would be able to take their eyes off him and I was one of them. From his delicate curls to his square jaw, Alpha Phoenix was graceful in every sense, in and out.He was handsome from the depth of his eyes to the gentle expressions of his voice and the ways his eyes flickered with mirth as he stared at me.His attention on me made me feel good, it felt nice to have the attention of an handsome greek god like the Alpha, what made me
RAYELL.The second I entered the restroom and glanced around, my eyes enlarged into saucers and my mouth went agape at the extravagance and rich washroom.Bold, mosaic wall tile makes the vanity in this bathroom the true focal point. Incorporating the same mosaic tile as an accent on the bathroom floor ties this design element into the rest of the space creating balance and unity.A sleek glass shower cubicle along with shining shower handles and handsets adds a classy touch to the bathroom. A custom-designed walk-thru shower can be made with two sets of showerheads, body jets and sprays.Having different spaces allotted for the shower base, a dry area to change and some room to move about.It was the most spacious bathroom that I have ever seen in my life, my Dad's bath room could never be compared to this. I loved the place.It was as If I had entered a different space, I stripped and went under the shower after turning the switch clockwise, this was not my room where my switch was
ALPHA PHOENIX.I liked the expression she would always make if I said something she found embarrassing or when she thought about anything nasty. Her thoughts could be seen by her expressions, she was so simple and genuine. She had a shallow dimple on her right cheek, it was not obvious even when she smiled, but when she pursed her lips, it would be very obvious.It made her look cuter.I also liked it whenever her face turned crimson red like the butt of a monkey, it was very amusing to watch. I could not count the number of times that she had blushed in just one morning, her skin was too thin and she could not handle small teasing.She gets embarrassed too easily, even when I don't say anything, she would just blush all of a sudden.She was also the reason why I smile more. On a normal day, I would just smile a little bit and then that was it, but when it came to her, I could not stop myself from wanting to give her my best smile.I wanted to leave a good impression on her, It was a
ALPHA PHOENIX. Dustin was planning something and it involved Rayell, but what he was plotting was hidden, he was hiding everything all too well and I was finding it difficult to find out.The way his eyes would flicker once in a while when staring at me and Rayell was very suspicious but I did not point it out to avoid trouble.I needed to continue keeping a low profile and to lay low, I could not expose everything yet, I needed to pretend like I did not know anything even though it was very frustrating most times.When Rayell turned to me in silence question after Dustin strectched out his hands, his eyes had became cold and detached, different from the way he smiled earlier but the unaware Rayell ignored him and I nearly chuckled.She has this pride in her that she herself does not know about, but I have started to notice them in her. It seemed she was not as weak as she had thought she was.it was only when I introduced him to her that she turned back to him and shook his hand, s
ALPHA PHOENIX. Dustin stared at me in silence and I met his gaze with calmness. I already knew what he was here for but I had to pretend to bw unaware.He was here tp check Rayell out and probably to intimidate the girl, but she was not even willing to talk to me, she had avoided him throughout the breakfast, and knowing Dustin, he must be feeling very angry now.He must not have expected the girl to be that witful, she had not replied to any of his statements and had continued to eat the food that I had picked for her in silence.Dustin's ego had been severely crushed by her and I knew that he had a grudge on her already, he wouldn't be able to do anything to her though, not in my presence and watch.When Rayell stood up to leave, his eyes followed her while flashing with a strange glint and my own eyes turned cold, he should not stare at her like that.Dustin looked at her from head to toe and finally turned his gaze to me with the same smile on his face, portraying the image of an
RAYELL.Throughout the breakfast, Dustin just kept talking and I ignored him completely. I just did not feel like talking to him, so I just kept quiet.I could feel his gaze on me the entire time and it got me frustrated and irritated that my body swelled with goosebumps as if I waa being stared at my a large carnivorous animal. Even when he spoke to the Alpha, he would still turn back to look at me, in a brazen way and I wondered if he was trying to achieve something by doing that.Was he trying to intimidate me?If it was before, I would have cowered in fear, but it was strange that I did not feel any fear at all. I did not even bother to smile back at him when he smiled at me, I could not force myself to smile because I don't like giving a fake smile, so I just did not force it.His eyes was not aa clear as the Alpha's and he was not handsome as he was, he would never be. I had a feeling that he was behaving like a green viper hiding in the midst of green grass and I shuddered at
RAYELL.When I heard that voice, my heart went completely cold and my thoughts became disarrayed, the Alpha's voice was filled with extreme fury, he must be very angry at me.Tears welled in my eyes, I did not do intentionally, I did not know, if I had known that he cares about his garden so much, to the extent that he would not allow anybody in here, I woupd not have entered in the first place.It was actually my fault, I should have stayed inside our room obediently as he had instructed but I did not, he must be disappointed in me too.When I looked up and saw the anger in his eyes and the way he was clenching his jaws to control himself, I knew that I had already crossed the boundary, he had been nice and accommodating but I guessed that I was going to see his other side now.My hands became clammy and sweaty, I would actually prefer it if he just scolded me or reprimanded me for this, I did not want him to start ignoring me or to change towards me, I felt that would be the most pa
ALPHA PHOENIX.My eyes had turned bloodshot when I saw Rayell on the ground with a big wound on her knees, her expression was pale and her lips were trembling in.....fear?Fear?Was she scared of me?Thinking to that point, I clenched my jaws to contain my anger and to stop myself from saying something that I would regret to the she-wolf, when I turned my gaze back to Rayell again, she backed away slightly and lowered her head.She was indeed scared of me.She had just started to be free with me and now it changed once again. My anger could not be explained with words and when I saw the wound that was glaring to my eyes,my eyes reddened in heartache, worry and most of all anger towards to the she-wolf that did this to my Rayel."What the hell is going on here?" i contained myself, to stop myself from using the Alpha's dominant voice, it will ruin all my plans and most of all, it would scare Rayell the more.I turned to look at her and when I saw that she was still scared of me, I quic
Rayell POVI have been trapped in this dark, endless void for what feels like an eternity.Kai had trapped me in a cage. And when he did come back to remove me from the cage. I did not have the strength to even get out of it.My body was all covered with goo and slimes. And my breath was short.I knew I had only a short time to live. And all I could do is think of was callox.Thoughts of him were what made the whole torture bearable.It was the faint glow that made my spark not to die.Suddenly, a gentle voice whispers in my mind. “Lady Rayell.”I turned around. But nobody was there.The voice was a soft, melodious voice, unlike anything I’ve ever heard before.“Who is it?”“I’m Princess Diane from the Bluebird Village, and I have come to help you connect back to your lover.”Confusion filled me.“To callox?”“Yes.”“Why can’t I see you?”“That isn’t important. What is that I can get you to see your lover?”“Can you at free me from this torment instead?”“I’m afraid I can’t. The dama
Allen POVI had left the palace feeling very angry. I couldn’t believe just how selfish the king was.He had another chance to make everything right. And he was still just concerned about his lady!I should have advocated for him to be removed. We needed a Lycan king who would protect his pack. His kingdom.Not a weakling.Well, it seemed I would have to handle things on my own.The moon goddess had been furious at me, and that was cause she had to face queries with the higher-ups in the heavens.The weapon I had been working on to use against Kai had been a total failure.The number of wolves dying was increasing massively. I felt really stuck. I was going through some books to see if I could find anything that would help.But so far, it had just been useless.I was still scaling through the books when one of my servant boys came barging into my chambers.“My lord.” He greeted.“What is it? I told you I didn’t wish to be disturbed.”“I apologize. But there is a woman at the gate. S
Callox POVI waited for Allen in the royal halls. While the guards packed up the dead bodies on the floor.When Allen came in. He had a very very grim expression.“Good day. Sire.” He bowed.“How bad is it?”He sighed. “The moon goddess and the entire heaven are angry with us. At our way of defeating Kai. They wanted to wipe out the whole of the Lycan kingdom. But I had to plead that we are given some time before they do so.”“And did they answer?”“Yes. However it is a very short limited time of two weeks.”I sighed. As if life couldn’t get any more harder.“Rayell went crazed. I believe it's cause of Kai.”“You are right. She did go crazed cause of Kai. He has been triggered.”“How is this impossible? I thought you got rid of him?”“I subdued him. I was trying to form a sword that would finally exterminate him from her. However, I do not think it’s possible anymore.”“What do you mean?”“For Kai to be killed. Rayell is going to have to die.”That statement sounded like a death sente
Callox POVI have been searching for rayell for days now. And yet every one of my searches had proved abortive.And the more I couldn’t find her. The more I went crazier. I wondered what on earth I was to do with this information.I had started shouting and sleepless nights. My mind felt like it was in a jumbled state. Sometimes I end up wallowing in bed. And Crying about everything.In the meantime. I noticed my legs had gotten more responsive. And I was even able to stand.Which was quite a lot. The cure was indeed working.However, I didn’t feel happy about it, cause she wasn’t here to share in the joy with meLiam helped with my leg routine every morning. Teaching me how to get used to my legs and all.However, I didn’t care much about it. Cause It felt like life had suddenly become to difficult to live in. In her absence.I was dying of fear and worry as to whether she was fine or not.Or if she needed me! I also felt immense guilt for not being able to stand up and defend her l
Rayell POVI had been staying at the cottage house for three days now. And I was already tired of the routine living style.Wake up, shower, eat, read some books, take a nap. A stroll. Read. Nap. Dinner. Then it goes on to repeat the whole actions over an over again.It was truly exhausting. I spent most of the time thinking of callox. To the extent that I started seeing him everywhere in the house.I felt I was going crazy at some point.I sat in the balcony of the cottage home. Taking in the fresh breeze and keeping time with reading.I was lost in it till elara came with a tray of snacks.She dropped it, did her courtesy greeting, and left. It’s how our lives have been. No talking or relations beyond that of a maid and her Lady.It was exactly like I had asked her to do. I felt bad about it. But it was for the best.After the snacks. I went back into my room and took an eventful nap.When I opened my eyes I noticed how clouded the place was.And how the wind was howling in the di
Callox POVI was pacing in the hallways. Still angry over Marcus' declaration. I couldn’t believe he had done that to his granddaughter.He had been cool with the idea of us being together. So why did he do that?After his declaration, the council, as usual, declined Rayell, who was my Luna.Though her name had been cleared, she could be in the palace. But I doubted that would feel like good news to Rayell.I wondered how she would feel about this. It sure would hurt her that her only family had been against the idea of her being happy.I fisted my hands, awaiting him. The council members came out of the meeting room. When Marcus saw me, he swallowed hard. It took everything in me not to snap the life out of his neck.Years of respect and the sacrifices he made to the royal family. Was what Kept me from doing so.“What was that for?”He ignored me and kept walking away.“I am talking to you!” I retorted in an authoritative tone.Which had him stopping.“It was needed.”“You destroyed
Rayell POVAfter Callox left and I cried my eyes out, Marcus came knocking on the door,And I told him how desperate I was to leave, and he told me he understood. He brought Elara, my handmaiden, with who I had gotten close over the past few months.We had to change into maid's clothing so I could easily escape the palace floors, and then we entered through a tunnel.When we got outside, we noticed that Marcus arranged for the carriage and horses to take us to the supposed destination.I wondered if Callox would realize that I was gone early,I doubted it cause he probably would be too busy preparing to get married. Anger seeped through me.What happened to fighting for my cause? What happened to not getting married to anyone but me? Was he lying?I wondered who it was that he was getting married to, and somehow, I felt jealous that I wasn’t in her position, I didn’t have enough political gains to be worth being his wife.We arrived at the supposed destination, which was a little cot
Rayell POVImmediately after Lady Aria attacked me, I lost consciousness of myself for a while.However, when I finally regained it. It was for a short period. And that was to see my body fall to the floor.It grew eminently dark again when I finally opened my eyes.I noticed I was back in that desolate dream world. And this time, I was in a cage. My hands and legs were high-tied to a cage.I rattle against the cage. Trying to get out of the cage.But it was just too tight. “You are not getting released out of that.” Kai's voice echoed.“What have you done to me?”“You’ve been subdued. I told you it was going to happen sooner.”“Subdued? As in, you took over my consciousness?”“Yes, darling. Now, sleep tight. I have got some unfinished business. And when I do achieve it. I will do you a favour of killing you.” He said.“No! No! No!” I screamed. But it was too late. A mist came up. And soon, my eyes went blank.Kai POVWhen I finally woke up, I realised that I was in an infirmary.I co
Rayell POVI sat in the royal garden, enjoying the cool breeze that tainted my skin,A harsh reality to the turmoil I was facing deep inside. My mind was still reeling from the conversations I had with Callox just when I thought things were going fine for us.I had been painfully knocked out of my sweet life and reminded of the harsh reality of life. Callox said he was going to do his best not to get married to someone who wasn’t me, except I didn’t know how to feel about that cause there was a high chance that he was going to go against his wordsAnd I have no idea if I would be able to handle such a thing when it happens. Seeing him with another woman would surely break me.If only I hadn’t gotten myself involved with Dustin's games, then maybe I would be here planning my wedding and not here confused about the next step to take,I was still lost in my thoughts when I sighted lord Marcus at the far end of the garden. He was having some discussions with the lords,When he saw me, h
