ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI had to return with Randall to the frontier. It was not so far off from us and I made it as quick as possible."The Alpha. He's back!" A soldier said out loud and I barked at him."Silence, soldier! We don't want word out yet." I said to him,"My apologies, Al.." he was about to say when I silenced him with a glare.Other soldiers noticed and instead bowed as I went past them. I went straight to the big tent where the strategies were being made and my Beta too."Derrick... I mean, Alpha." He said as soon as he caught sight of me."Let's keep it down, shall we?" I asked him."My apologies. Randall, many thanks for bringing him back." He said to the gamma."My pleasure. I wouldn't have had it any other way. Although, he made it tough on me because he found..."Randall was saying."Now who did you bring here? I merely came in haste because I was worried about you all." I said to the Beta."He lies." Randall said to him."You were going to tell me why." The Beta said
ALPHA DERRICK'S POV"Derrick, what is it?" Randall asked me."Gamma, be on the lookout for anyone trying to escape." I said to him,"Okay, Alpha." He responded.I was scanning them all for any signs of anyone looking suspicious. The soldiers were maintaining their cool and looked on like they did not understand what I was talking about."You're not going to step out?" I asked yet again."Alpha, what are we searching for?" Randall asked yet again.Could he not hear me? I just said for him to do one specific thing and here he was asking multiple questions again. I decided to look ahead and above it as I decided that I would address my men."Listen, I shall be going through the tents of each and everyone here. Once I move with the Gamma and Beta, you all should kill anyone among you that tries to escape." I said to them,"Yes, Alpha!" They said all together.The strength of their voice was actually convincing. Actually, I knew within me that most of these soldiers were loyal. If there wa
CLARA'S POVIt was a relief now that Melissa and her cronies were all gone. We could now carry out our plot. Not necessarily a plot but our quest for freedom."We don't have time, Grace. We need to get this over and done with." I said to Grace."As much as I pictured cute babies between you and Kent, I have to agree with you now. We should get this done and over with at this point." She said to me,"Less talking then. More action." I said to her as I grabbed my bag.This was way long overdue. We had been trying to get this thing sorted for weeks in a row. Finally, I would be able to unlink Kent..."And get Derrick whom we deserve." Clover said to me.I smiled widely."We're not sure it's Derrick, you know." I said to her,"But you wish he was the one.. Don't you, Clara?" She asked me.Indeed I did wish he was the one. I mean, who on earth would not with how excellent of a person he was. Derrick was everything I desired in a man and beyond. The bond between us was something really stro
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVIt was easy to suspect my Beta at this point. I mean, Philippe had been acting all weird but he has also been my friend since childhood. He actually used to hate the vampires and I wanted to believe his stance was still unchanged. His mother had been actually killed by those blood suckers.She was not a fighter actually. She had lost her mind and had been wandering a whole lot. Apparently one day, she had strayed so far away from our area and by the time we noticed, she had crossed so far and the vampires got to her before we could.It was not going to be totally out of place then to believe that her son would actually detest the vampires. So let us play along the line of the benefit of doubt and hope that he was still on our side. If there was ever a thing about me, it was the fact that I gave enough chances."This means there is one then?" Philippe asked me."It means we have a spy and a traitor. If it was one of them only, he would not have brought back his loot
CLARA'S POV"Humph!" Melissa shrugged as she angrily walked past us.It felt really nice to see her put on the edge once again. She clearly had been defeated in her scheme to get at me for no just cause.I looked at Grace and then signaled that we should leave. It would be only a matter of time before the potion would take effect and we would not have to ever again worry about Kent and his disturbances.Grace nodded and I led the way towards the exit."And where do you think that you would be headed?" Kent demanded angrily."Um, I was hoping... I thought..." I was searching for the right words to use on him but I could not find any.We clearly would be stuck with Kent and knowing him, he would make things hard for me "Actually, what Clara was trying to say is that we'll be out of your way right away." Grace said and started walking briskly."Stop right there!" Kent yelled.We both froze on the spot as I turned to look at Grace."Do you think he suspects you both?" Clover asked within
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI had the ultimate satisfaction watching the vampires do their thing to the traitor. His piercing screams had a lot of werewolves try to close their eyes as they all could not bear to watch one of their own getting torn apart."You all keep watching. This way, whenever anyone else decides to move to the dark side, he should be well informed on what actually happens in the end. There's no bargaining with the undead." I said to them,"What's there to bargain with people that are literally heartless?" Gamma Randall added.I could feel his anger and I knew he was trying to keep himself from going against them.Well, I guess there would be no war tonight with the vampires since the traitor already made them retreat.I walked away angrily as I needed to make final arrangements and go back to where I had been. Seriously, I was missing Clara a whole lot more than I could have imagined. Her soft silky hair and her scent were like things I was craving right now."Um, Alpha."
ARMAND'S POVDamnit! That spoil sport sure knows how to get on my very last nerves. What was so hard about staying away that Derrick could not comprehend. I was actually tempted to send the men regardless of an attack but then, that would bring me to ruin.With the knowledge that Derrick was back, they would become really afraid and fearful men always make mistakes during war. The elders were already closely watching me and probably checking my obsession with power.I would be doing my stance as ruler greater harm if I send our men to their deaths. I needed to regroup them and do a rethink before my next line of action.Marcus entered the bedroom where I was as he looked at me while I was brooding sadly."You do realize that you did the right thing out there?" He asked me."I know but come on, for how long now?" I demanded."For as long as it takes and then it will all be over." The smart looking man said to me.Although I was way older than he was as a vampire, Marcus looked older in
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI blinked to make certain that she was not there and perhaps, I was imagining things. But alas, when those eyes opened, I was staring directly at the body of the naked woman with her vulva staring at me.I swallowed hard like there was a lump caught underneath my throat."Well?" She asked.I realized now that I had been staring at her womanhood for longer than was necessary and I was actually beginning to sport a boner that was harder than any before.Perhaps this was because we used to be mated to each other. However, this all ended when she rejected me and I accepted. She was immediately reassigned and I was not.I had actually decided to stay the way I had been until I came in contact with Todd Silver."Celine, this is wrong." I said to her,A frown crossed her forehead."Wrong? What's so wrong about this?" She asked me."We... you... I mean, we're no longer mated." I said to her,"And how does that stop us? I'm widowed and I have realized my mistake now." She s
