Lia is so convinced that someone actually helped Zara to run away. I am forced too. Not the literal kind of force though, but it just makes perfect sense as to why and how Zara was able to make it out of almight town, alive and in her own.She may not be alive though.But this is only a thought and my sense tells me that Zara is alive and I am so we’ll determined to find her by all means. My mind flashes back to Lia…lately, we’ve managed to agree at somethings. Like Zara would have had someone to help her and the high possibility that she is still alive and probably not in this city.Lia is a handful, not one that I cannot manage though. But for now, if I had to find Zara, I needed her help and I had to agree to her ridiculous demands.You could easily do without her though— maybe we can work more with Alfred. Your beta wolf. A small voice reasons and for a nanosecond I consider the thought. Lia maybe be ridiculous with her ideasLife in Greenwood city is much refreshing than I thought. We were starting afresh. George and I, we had agreed we would put the past behind, leave all the bad memories that came with almight town die down there. George was right after all, we were in a new city. One without hate and discrimination. Everyone looked out for each other and made sure they had something to eat. If I did not know better, I would think I was in a fairy island where everything was perfect. But that was it with Greenwood . Everything was perfect. George had gotten a job at the city council, he worked happily and more at ease than I have ever seen him. I could not be anymore grateful for taking this decision with George . Two days ago, we had taken a tour around the city. Greenwood was not that much of a big city. Infact, compared to almight town, it was just a quarter and half of it. But everyone did not seem to mind. As long as they were happy, then it was all good. The p
~Pedro~The Wolfgang were still out there making sure to search properly every neighboring city situated around almight town. The search was real and intense and I knew this because I had gone along with them to thoroughly search areas that we suspected. However, we had gotten a hold of the family of the so called partner of Zara and there was no way I was going to let him go if he did not provide answers.One thing was so annoying, they would not provide their identify, like let us through on it and my only guess was that probably they were some member of the lowest pack of another city. So, we put that aside and had decided to torture them till they gave the answers we want.None was forthcoming no matter how many times the Wolfgang dealt with them, they claimed they had no answers to our questions and that they did not even know that their brother had disappeared out of almight town. It was frustrating that nothing was going well. Zara however must be having the
~Zara~There we were, drawing, painting, laughing. It was so fun. Especially doing it alongside Judas . Judas was good at whatever she drew and I, I was so much better at painting. At some point we got tired and decided to take a rest, there was an old man passing by, we waved cheerfully at him, “hello Mr, Jones.”“Hello Zara, hello Judas , how are you two today?”“Fine thank you. Do have a lovely day today.” We chorused in reply. Smiling at him while we watched him walk away.“So tell me, Zara, what brings you to Greenwood city?”I shrug, we were seating under an umbrella, on reclining chairs that were comfortable, staring at the clouds and basically sipping cocktail drinks. This was the life. Of course I had not forgotten to look for a job but for now, I needed to rest, to relax Abit and integrate myself into the society.And to think I had just made my first friend, not that I knew much about her but she was better at reading my thoughts and somehow I could tell that she was either
~Pedro~“ I say we call the rogues.” Lia suggests and I cringe. The rogues? No way. Those set of wolves were another breed entirely. They stink and most times get distracted with their mission.They really are not trust worthy at all and it is like going on a big risk. This mission is worth the risk. But still there is no way I am calling the rogues.Lia gives me a bored look, I can tell she is getting pissed off by my reluctance. But I do not give in. Never. And she is going to have to deal with it.“ Okay Pedro, what do you expect? I mean if you are hell bent serious on carrying out this plan of yours, you will cooperate with me and for once just put aside all these pride. “It is not pride. The rogues are just these set of dirty wolves that carry out dirty works and I do not want to risk being associated with them. Okay maybe this is pride but it does not matter right now.I value my pride and Lia of all person’s should know that by now. Is that not even the main reason why we are
Judas ’s house was filled with so much excitement and warmth. Everyone at the table was chatting and laughing loudly, even George seemed to integrate himself with the people around. He was talking excitedly with some colleagues from his work place and everyone seemed to be in a good mood. I was sitting alongside some of Judas ’s friends who talked about various subjects they wished to discuss among themselves. From their personalities to what they thought about worlds and city outside Greenwood , to family and work and just social gatherings that brought happy cheers and laughter to our faces.I did not have much to talk about but it was easy flowing into the conversation especially when Judas ’s friends were easy to let you in on what they talked about. And it was exhilarating to laugh freely among strangers who were no longer strangers but gradually making an impact in your life.“ So tell us Zara, what did you enjoy more doing as a child?” One of the ladies at the table asked. I t
I was agitated and so was my wolf. Despite Zara not wanting me, the mate bond still made me feel horrible.I guess, I sort of deserve it though seeing the horror Zara must have passed through while she was a kid knowing her parents died right in front of her and were never avenged. I imagined she must be having the time of her life with the lowlife guy she ran away with. At this point, I was disappointed with myself. This wasn’t the alpha he’s imagined and prided himself to be. Someone who couldn’t exactly control the affairs of his own pack.Maybe I really should not have listened to Lia and involve the rogues because they weren’t exactly top on my option list. If anything, they were the last. I have had a traumatic experience with the rogues as a kid. I was what at the time? Ten? I was playing in the yard with one of the royals’ kid who was only about my age too at the time when they came and took me and the kid. I couldn’t exactly tell if they did it for the thrill or they were ju
~Zara~I screamed at the sudden ticklish onslaught. George was grinning at my torture but it was my favorite form of torture. He leaned down and placed his lips on mine.“Girl, I love you.” My insides melted. Sweet words and sentences like this from George makes me fall all over again.“Is this your way of telling me that you will be going to the city council soon and you will be leaving me all by myself?” I teased. Well, not entirely teasing. I was always kinda sad to see him leave in the morning. I want to be with him all the time.“I am sorry baby.” He looked genuinely sorry. His pretty eyes twinkling with a quiet apology. “But I got you something.” My mouth formed a perfect O. He reached into a chest of drawers beside our bed and brought out a bunch of supplies.“You know, for your painting.” I screeched from excitement and straddled him. He grinned at me, seemingly happy. I planted a huge sloppy kiss on his lips.“Thank you, I love you.” He nodded and pushed my hair back.“Right b
~Pedro~Lia groaned. Good, she is awake and she is all healed up now. Sunlight strewn into the room through some open window. I called the pack doctor.“Joe, close that shit.” I wasn’t supposed to cuss. I mean, I am supposed to be in control at all time especially in front of my pack members. I motioned to the window. He gave a bow and quickly went about doing my bidding.“The light is fine.” Lia mumbled weakly but the window was already close.“How are you doing?” My brows furrowed. I really should have Akita punished. So maybe I haven’t announced that Lia is the future Luna nor do I think I will be doing that anytime soon but it was no secret in the pack that Lia and I were screwing. Pardon my crude language.“Why are you sitting at my bedside?” Lia asked suspiciously. I resisted the urge to say that we are a couple. We are not normal at all. We might be powerful together but we are dysfunctional. “Don’t you have some alpha stuff to do?” She blinked. If I didn’t know any better, I w
~Zara~"Tell us what it is Zara. It is very rude to keep people in suspense," Julian complained and every other person in the room supported her with a groan. "Calm down at least allow me finish breastfeeding," I retorted. Breastfeeding, I could not believe I actually said that word. George was in the kitchen preparing something for me to eat and no one saw it fit to help him out. Ever since I came home that day from the hospital, up till the date of my delivery, I caused him nothing but work. There was always something I wanted or did not want. I blamed the fact that he got me pregnant whenever he complained about me being too demanding. I would ask him to carry a supernatural child in his belly for a couple of months and see how it is. "Name the child already. We don't even know it's gender," someone else grumbled from the crowd and I laughed. Almost everyone I knew and cared about was around after they heard I had delivered the baby and had already gotten home. I felt honored
~PEDRO~"I do not want to go," I argued strictly with Lia but she seemed to have had her mind made up. "We have to go. She is legit," she insisted. I sat still, not moving from my position. She was trying to persuade me to follow her to a witch down town who could tell our future. I saw it as a waste of time and money, I had other pack duties to face. "Lia, I have things to do other than listening to a witch. I have not much good lucks when it comes to having encounters with witches remember," I defended, not even wanting to go but also not wanting to give her a direct no for an answer. "Then I'll ask for the witch to come over. It will be the best. She was the one who predicted that I would be Luna one day and here I am. All I had to do was work well for it," Lia explained further earning a groan from me. "Will that not cost us more than expected?" I peered and she nodded her head. "Yes, but you are alpha remember. Money has never been an issue for you," she chimed and I sighed
~Zara~"What?!" I was breathless for the next couple of seconds and my jaw was down and my eyes were wide open. "Congratulations ma'am," the director walked right in, holding a file in his hands and giving it to George. I was carrying a baby in my belly. The news caught me off guard, I knew how I was supposed to react to it and I wanted to do so but I was way too stunned to even make a statement. My hands crawled around my belly as I tried to listen to an extra heart beat but then I remembered my werewolf aid was no longer available. "I'm pregnant," I murmured quietly. "Yes," George seemed to be very overjoyed by the news and he continued to hug me every once in a while to tell and show me how happy he was. "I'm carrying a child inside of me," I defined the term pregnant again to myself and this time, tears clouded my eyes and I made no effort to hold them in. I was having mixed emotions. Somewhere in me I was overly joyed to know that George and I were going to be parents soo
~Pedro~Proud was an understatement, compared to how I felt at the moment. Nothin could wipe the smile off my face. I was the new new alpha or alpha's. A dream come true, finally. The wives of the former alphas has already reached their family few minutes ago. I got news from each and everyone one of them. Yes having them kidnaped and using their vulnerability against them made me look like the bad person here but desperate times called for desperate measure. I did what I had to do and it was worth it.I am my father's son and his method of ruling runs through my veins. Everyone continued to congratulate me and I never stopped any of them, not even even once. It all helped to swell my head, I hoped that the news spread fast and reach all comers of the earth. I won the fight and I barely even made any moves. Deep down I hoped I sparred with at last one of the alpha's. I needed some blood to be shredded but they all backdown easily like cowards. It was pathetic how attached stro
~Zara~There was absolutely nothing to do, it was a weekend and I had no work. But for some reason, George had to leave me again to attend to somethings at the council. I sometimes feel a lot jealous when I realize how much effort and time he puts into his work. But then I remember how he treats me like a queen that he says I am. He's the sweetest thing and I could not find myself getting mad at him for long. Picking up my television remote, I tuned the station once again. I hoped I found the right program to watch fast because my mind was going crazy from the boredom and it was eating me up fast from the inside. The whole thing I was doing was worthless. My belly made a low growl and I remembered I had not eaten since morning. It also meant I had to find what to cook, George had already spoiled me with making me foods now I was too lazy to take care of myself. I turned my head to the direction of the kitchen, contemplating whether or not to get up and get some food. I looked at th
~Pedro~We were waiting patiently for both Alan and Denver to just make the damn call so we can get this over with. I really don’t have the time for this.Their Lunas were sitting in a dark room but they weren’t tied up or anything. We let them be free. I don’t have time to torture people or fight a goddamn war. The werewolf society might have rules about this sort of thing but this is the time to change their goddamn rule and give us all a chance to live even after competing.Fine, I am not saying this because I am a good person. I am just saying this because I want to take the cowardly way out and I don’t want to have to kill anyone because I wouldn’t want to have any casualties on my neck or anything like that so it’s only wise that I do it this way. Kidnapping both their Lunas and getting them to withdraw from the competition. They aren’t really withdrawing per day just submitting to me.It wouldn’t be really hard with Denver because he is obsessed with his Luna. A tiny looking wo
~Pedro~After the counter attack that we have the Ray pack, they have been pretty silent for a while and I will like to think of it as a calm before the storm. Lia is so busy training hard because she felt like I beat her too easily at the sparring we both had but all explanations that I had to give that it was because I had been learning how to fight since I was born and well, I am an alpha too so I will be more stronger fall on deaf ears.She told me that she felt weak but I know that’s all a lie. This is happening to her all because she is feeling so goddamn nervous about the war and I have told times without number that I have got this under control. But for now, while everyone slaves away training and shit, I am sitted here in my chambers with my tablet and I am watching this series on Netflix about werewolves. This is my way of distressing. You wouldn’t understand until you are the leader of a bunch of people who think they are going to die because there’s war looming on the hor
~Zara~This is really fun. You know, having a boss who was once rude and grumpy to you and now even though he is still rude and grumpy, he is not so bad anymore because y’all had an encounter and now he respects you. I wouldn’t say respect per say—it is a little begrudging but now he behaves better and not only to me but the other co workers. Park was excited as hell.He and Pérez had a really epic fallout the last time that Pérez thought he did something wrong again and he thought about quitting. I couldn’t exactly tell him not to do what he wants to do. He is an adult and he can make his own decisions but also I think I will really miss seeing his face at work and his false flirtiness.The relationship between Pérez and the rest of the co workers shifted dramatically last month when he had some breathing attack. I was about to tell him that some teachers were here to see him because they want the students to come here for their art class but instead I met Pérez laying on the floor,
~Pedro~We werewolves must be psychopaths because ever since I brought the news back home to my pack that we are at war with the Ray pack that is Denver pack and starlight pack which is Alan’s pack, they have been really excited. Dylan was making good on his promises, he supplied me with over two thousand soldiers.We were still good friends and the pack was confident that victory was ours in this war. Lia, not so much. She was completely pessimistic and got angry at me for taking such a huge step without telling her but I don’t really care about what she thinks. Before my father died, this was what he wanted for me and no matter how much I hated the man, it was a good thing to want for himself and his son but it is not a monarchy and even if my dad has the title, I will still have to fight for my own place at the table.It’s good though not having everything handed over to me on a platter of gold. That will be bad for me and my reign as alpha in the light pack.Lia walked into my cha
