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
LARA'S POV"For the upteenth time, Clara, stop pacing and fidgeting." Grace said to me.I had not realized how long but I did know that my butt was yet to meet with my bed since we got back from the classroom. I have sincerely been worried with the thought of what was going to become of the whole stuff. I was expecting that it would work but the big question of the moment remained...What if it does not work?"Well, that would mean that we're getting stuck with Kent and ewww!" Clover cried out in my head suddenly."What?" I asked her."Well, we would have to end up making little baby Kent. And I seriously cannot imagine what it would be like having his kids." She said to me,"Never. You're the one going to have babies for him and not me." I said to her,I mean, it was utterly disgusting right now."Well, technically, it's still going to be you having his babies if you want to loop me in." She said to me,"You know what, you're not helping matters. Shut up, Clover." I said to her vehem
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI watched carefully as she kept glaring at me and started gathering up her gown.She turned to glare at me."You're going to regret this and when you come back again, I will put you through a hard time." She said to me,"Three minutes left for you to get dressed or those men out there would be coming inside. I suggest you act quickly." I swear to her without a single care in the world."To think you're getting cold makes me proud." Reid said to me."Proud?" I asked him."I mean, all these years, I have spent time trying to make you into this really hard person but you sure as hell have been on the stubborn side of that train." He said to me,"We could actually blame that on how bad of a teacher that you are." I said to him,"You're an asshole." He responded.I chuckled and then realized I had made that chuckling loud."What's so funny? The woman you have had certainly does not have what I have and neither would she have this kind of body I offered to you on a platt
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVFine, I know everyone is beginning to wonder what it is that I have been hiding all this time along and I would rightly say it. I had just been a kid the first time I met Beta Todd Silver and he had come in to see my father at a time and I was wondering who the handsome yet powerful looking man was. I said nothing to him and when he spoke to me, I could feel so much kindness in his eyes that I became so shy.At this time, my father had decided to call me in. I walked inside timidly."Straighten up, boy!" My father had commanded me.I was only ten at the time."I'm so...sorry, father." I had stuttered out."Is that a stammer that I hear?" My father, Alpha Coldfang demanded.I was so shocked and did not know how to answer at the time. I was so scared as from the moment I turned four, he had me on the training for warriors as he wanted me to be stronger than even him."Easy, Alpha Coldfang. He's probably more frightened of you than he is of me." Beta Todd had respon
CHAPTER 135 CLARA'S POV "What's happening? I'm seeing you..." I heard my own words voiced out in amazement. The moon goddess simply stood there and would not make a move. It was then I looked up at her and noticed that she looked sad still in the eyes. Oh well, so much for wishful thinking. "You still do not get the point, Clara." She said to me, "What point? That I should not even be allowed to see my father? That's a huge point you made." I looked at her spitefully. "No, child and trust me, you're beginning to test me." She responded. "Of course. You're the moon goddess and as a pawn in your games, I shall only shut up and take it all like a champ. No complaints, eh?" I said to her, jutting out my jaw stubbornly. "You're really something, Clara Silver. You try to get on my nerves but I find you amusing." She responded. "Of course. Every blind wolf out there is amusing. No complaints." I responded. I saw her bite down hard as she could before approaching me. Perhaps, my ton
CLARA'S POVIt was quite...Oddly so.I had been hoping that Arlene would at the very least try and check on us but I never saw him. There was no sign of him and neither was there any of Derrick.Fear gripped me as I found myself wondering if everything was okay with him (Derrick).I needed someone to talk to.I needed to share my fears right now but Derrick was nowhere to be found."Clara, you need to rest." I heard Clover say to me."Oh, Clover! I feel so alone and lost." I said with a sigh.That was the honest truth. I felt bitter and really worked up right now but was there anything I could do?I doubt so."You'll be fine." She responded."I don't even know where Derrick is. I'm so worried. Are you not worried? What if the vamps took him?" I asked her.She let out a long drawn exhale."I am worried too, Clara. But even more than Derrick, I am worried about you. You're hurting and you have a lot on your shoulder." She said to me,"You shouldn't worry one bit about me. I'll be fine
CLARA'S POVI felt really excited as I caught onto the scent of the man that had been once announced dead. My dear father and I knew now that I had never been able to forget his scent.It was just as I remembered, so different yet so great."Dad." I called him as I traced to a standing position, where his head was."Who are you? Why do you call me father? I'm yet to find myself a woman." He said to me suddenly and I felt shattered."Father, you don't remember me?" I asked him as tears formed in my eyes.How could he do this to me? It might have been a long time but I who had lost him at eight had not forgotten him. Yet, he had such effrontery to forget me in such a short while."Come now girl, I don't know who you are. I believe I had a crush at my pack but we were just kids before I lost my way." He said to me, breaking my heart further."I'm your daughter. I'm your baby." I said to him,"How old are you then because you look so old." He said to me,"I'm only eighteen." I said to him
ALPHA DERRICK'S POV"What about him?" Randall asked as he nudged his jaw towards Kent who was still knocked out and tied up.I looked at him inquisitively before responding."The vampire said to follow him. We would follow him. You bring the boy."I said to him."Why do I get to do the hard stuff? You knocked him out, don't you think it is part of your responsibility now to..." He was still speaking when I cast him. "Fine. You don't need to look at me like I'll be next. I'll bring him." He sighed heavily as he went to Kent. Trust Randall to always make a show of how angry he gets. He made certain to land a kick to Kent's butt before struggling to pick him up while grumbling."Alpha Derrick, walk with me." Arlene said to me.Well, I guess he was back to his twelve year old vampire mode. To think a few minutes ago, this adorable looking young boy had been so intense with his glare that I nearly forgot how to breathe. I would recommend that anyone picking a fight with him should have mad
BETA BENSON'S POVI have been waiting at the pack house for this good news.Alright, bad guy here and I totally agree but you would have done the same to have some aspects of relevance attached to your name.This has always been my game plan.It is too bad I have not had the chance to introduce myself properly but I am the one who's supposed to be leading this pack.I had a strung out rivalry with Todd Silver and it was not a thing today. It was an old strife, maybe one he was not sure had such strong genesis.Could we say I always hated him and his guts from the moment my childhood dream girl had developed a friendship with him when Todd was newly transferred to our school.Everyone was all over him. He slowly took over everything and seemed like he was the saint of our time. It did not make any sense and when I tried to talk him into joining us, he had turned me down.He wanted nothing to do with my silly games and made me feel the first insult of my life. I overlooked him and decid
ALPHA DERRICK'S POV"Clara!" I called out to her as she fell off my arms.Clara sure did know how to get everyone on the edge. Right here in the vampire territory which we had encountered and she was clearly unfazed. She had suddenly left my arms to the ground and was sniffing her way further deep.I have never seen anything like that in my life. The way she moved faster and sniffed around, it was something from the human sniffing dogs.I wanted to go after her but a couple of vampires deterred me as they hissed right into our faces."Clara!" Grace even called out to her but I doubt she could hear either of us.I glared at Arlene, especially when a vampire seemed to want to threaten Clara."Arlene, are you going to let them hurt her? Us? We're not harming anyone!" I said to him as my eyes kept following her."Friends, let us all be calm. These ones mean no harm to us. At least, that much I can assure you." Arlene said to the snarling vampires."We cannot trust them in the heart of our
CLARA'S POVI had been through hell and back.It was all the fault of the damned moon goddess. Why on earth would she curse me with blindness? Could she see now the havoc she was causing?For crying out loud, I nearly drowned!"But you didn't." Clover said to me."Shut it, Clover." I said to her,"Clara, anything could be taken lightly but blasphemy against the mood goddess is evil. She sees and knows everything." She said to me,"Oh and I hope she's seeing this now." I responded to Clover.This was my thoughts right before I had been plunged into water and was drowning.I had awakened sometime when Derrick was speaking to Beta Benson's men and it was not even up to a minute when I found myself drowning.I had been so weak that I could not move at all. Eventually, I lost it all. It would be best to just drown and die than be humiliated further.The water started to get into my nostrils and I found that I was beginning to struggle to breathe too. I thought to myself, what did it matter
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI had heard stories of Arlene and his community of non-human blood drinking vampires. We believed it to be a myth as it was clear to everyone of us that a vampire cannot claim not to drink human blood.They were supposedly evil and dark creatures from our opposite kind. The dark brother to our moon goddess had been believed to sire them.Dracula and Selene used to be siblings. Whilst Selene saw only the beauty and pureness, Dracula was believed to have experimented on the lives of humans, leading the great god to cast him down on earth and curse him.He became the sire of vampires.This was the story we had grown up to.However, the wild spread fanatic was how some of these doomed ones failed to live up to expectations and would rather feed on animals than hurt a human.This seemed strange at the time. Tell me about Arlene a few minutes ago and I would have laughed at what myth one was playing at.From the vastness of this empty landscape, I could swear there are n
ARLENE'S POVIt has been five good centuries and eleven moons since I turned.My name is Arlene and some would call me the vampire old kid.I had been human until that day when I had allowed my disobedience to get the better of me.A group of strangers had come to our little yet peaceful village. These people were pale looking and I actually believed they were ill.They had arrived while we were celebrating our annual festival. Five of them. Two women and three men. They had been so friendly and soon, we learnt to accept them.All but one wise woman I hope sometimes when I lose people I love - my mother.She found them really weird and she called me every other time."Arlene, stay away from those strangers. Something is off about them." She said to me,But being the kind of child I had been, I found it weird that my mother would not want to mingle with them. I mean, they started assisting the villages with different things.I grew fond of the older woman among them. She seemed to be i
