Alpha Jared stepped out of the house and headed to the royal garage to get one of his cars. He couldn't wait any longer. He had to find out who the girl was. He had to know if his gut feeling was right. She had the mark on her right cheek. That was enough reason to have him unnerved, and he was not gonna relax until he finds out if she was really the lost daughter of the True bloodline pack.
Over the years, he'd done nothing but try to find out clues about the missing daughter of the true bloodline pack. Her disappearance had been an impossible feat for her parents back when they were still alive. They looked everywhere and did all they could do. But there was no sign of her. It's like – she never existed.
“Your Majesty,“ The royal chauffeur bowed at him, ready to be at service to him.
But the Alpha snatched the car keys away from him, “Don't worry, Mike. You don't have to come with me. I wanna go alone,“
“But–” Mike, the royal chauffeur, tried protesting. It didn't feel right to let the Alpha drive when that was his job.
“No buts. Just go back inside. And if the boys ask about me, tell them I had to go check on something important,”
He had to go check if –after all these years– he finally found the missing daughter of the true bloodline pack.
”Okay, your Majesty. Please be safe,” The royal chauffeur bowed, and his head remained that way until the Alpha drove out of the garage and into the street.
True bloodline pack was a two-hours ride but Alpha Jared was already impatient. He wanted to get there in a flash. The longer he stays without knowing the truth, the more restless he feels.
He was on his way to go meet Zack, the brother of the late Alpha of the true bloodline pack. Zack was the only remaining relative of the Alpha family, and now the Alpha of the true bloodline pack.
Back when the little girl went missing, Zack had tried to find the girl. His concern for the girl was evident, so it's only right he lets him know that his little niece might still be alive and was back home with his boys.
After two hours, he was finally riding on the tarred streets of the true bloodline pack. He headed to the mansion where the Alpha family lives.
He alighted from his car and threw his keys at the royal valet. The lanky boy who was the royal valet of the True bloodline pack nodded his head and went ahead to pack the car where it should be.
Alpha Jared stepped into the house and was getting bows from the servants. Of course, they knew who he was. He's been here a few times and had quite an acquaintance with Zack. Other than that, his boys were quite famous in the werewolf kingdom. Everyone knew them for their good looks and incredible fighting skills. So as their father, he shared in their fame.
A female Omega led him to a waiting room and gestured at him to sit on the couch.
“Our Alpha will join you shortly,“ She mumbled politely, with her head bowed.
Alpha Jared had his eyes sweep up her tattered attire to her chapped face before nodding, “Alright, thank you,“
She nodded and scurried away, leaving Alpha Jared to the soothing quietness of the room.
Soon, Zack walked in, dressed in a white, Alpha robe. He had a courtesy smile on his face, and it reflected on Alpha Jared's face too.
“Jared,“ Zack greeted, shaking his hands firmly, “Good to see you,“
“Good to see you, too. Zack,“ Alpha Jared said, “Hope I didn't interrupt anything important?“
“No, not all. What brings you here?“
Alpha Jared adjusted on his seat, bringing his voice low to avoid being in anyone's earshot. He wanted the matter to be as discreet as ever until his gut feeling was proven to be true.
“Are you still in search of your long-lost little niece?“ Alpha Jared asked.
“Sure, I am. We still need her. Even though it's been a long time, I still hope I get to find her and bring her home,“ Zack replied, and then he looked at Jared conspicuously and added, ”Why are you asking me that?“
“I might be wrong, but I think I just found your long-lost niece,“ Alpha Jared declared, “I met this girl and she had a mark on her right cheek. It was very similar to the one on your niece. Perhaps, you should come see it for yourself, then –”
“I'm afraid it's just a striking coincidence, Jared,“ Zack cut him off with a stern tone, ”As much as I wanna hold onto a little hope that my niece is still alive, I still need to embrace the reality that she's dead and gone,“
“But Zack, coincidences like this are rare. It was her, I'm sure. She had the crescent moon–”
”If my long lost niece was alive, shouldn't I be the first to learn about it?“ Zack interrupted and stood to his feet. “I'm sorry you came all the way here for nothing. I hope you have a safe trip back home,“ Zack dismissed him and headed inside.
Alpha Jared was short of words but had to leave. Maybe next time, he'll return with the girl. Maybe only then will Zack believe him.
Zack went back into his study and Asper was still seated on the leather chair, with his legs crossed on the table.
“What did Jared want?“ Asper asked.
“I think he found Rizine,“ Zack said, pissed off and restless, “You got me the wolfsbane, now you have to kill Jared. I'll be doomed if he reveals to the whole world that my Godforsaken niece is still alive,“
“Sure,“ Asper replied with a sinister smile. He gestured at his right-hand man, Jason, who was also in the room. “Don't let Jared return to his pack,”
“Yes, Alpha,“ Jason nodded and headed out, clearly understanding just what he had to do.
There was an icy silence in the room and it went on for minutes. Rizine curled up in fear and stared at the twins in horror. Her lips quivered and her hands trembled, she had to ball them into a fist to try to keep them steady.Their sudden coldness had her thrown off balance. Just a few minutes ago, she'd thought they were the warmest twins she'd ever come across. And now, this? They were suddenly giving off sinister vibes? How could they switch so quickly?“Yes, or no, Rizine?“ Milan repeated sternly. It was hard to maintain a poker face but he did. As much as he hated to scare her like this, they had to do whatever to compel her into staying with them. Just until they figure out what it was that had them drawn to her.“What– but I – “ Rizine couldn't make out any coherent words. But the words laid on the tip of her tongue. She wasn't a dancer, what she did back there at the club was just putting up a front. Her dance skills were mundane. Just a few basic steps she picked up from t
Kilan was the first to speak, and he was barely audible, “What happened here?“ He asked, tears garnering up in his hazel eyes. It was the first hazel eyes Rizine ever came across, and it was alluring and held a dose of warmth a few minutes ago in their palace. Right now, all his eyes held were tears and unanswered questions.She was trembling and she hated it. And one swipe of her gaze over her appearance, she thought she looked like the culprit. Her hands were covered in blood, she was shaking in fear, she couldn't say a single word in her defense, and just let them judge her with their eyes. She looked guilty, even when she wasn't.It was unfair to her the way they were reacting right now. How could they not let her speak first before tagging her as the murderer? Even without them saying it, she could see it in their eyes. And it only made her lack the coordination to speak up for herself.“What did you do?!“ This time, it was Milan's glacial voice sending shudders down her spine. S
Three days after the twin Alphas' Father's death, the boys were summoned to the meeting room by the elders of the pack. There were still some unresolved matters and they had to get to it. It was midday, and the elders had been waiting for hours, but the boys were yet to show up.“What's taking them so long?“ One of the elders murmured, checking his wristwatch. It was already past midday. They've been seated here since 9 in the morning. Surely, the twins were trying to prove how impertinent they were.Damon noticed the growing uproar in the meeting room and ran off to go get the twins again. He got to Milan's bedroom and knocked impatiently. He was pissed. This has to be the tenth time he came to call them for the meeting. They were being blatantly rude, and it was to his fucking detriment.“You know it's open, Damon,“ It was Kilan's voice, drawn in a tired tone. It wasn't a surprise that he was in his twin brother's room. Their delay to the meeting was a conspiracy between both of
The twins watched her from the upper balcony where they sat with the higher elders of the pack. It was the red full moon night. The moon was already up in the middle of the sky, sending red gleams down to the earth.Milan, with his fist clenched, watched the warrior approach Rizine with a stick that held fire. It didn't bother him a bit. She had to die. But then, his wolf was restless, pacing back and forth in the back of his mind.'What is it?' Milan asked his wolf, sharply. His wolf's name was Reed. He was the most ferocious beast in the werewolf kingdom.'I feel her close,' His wolf growled inside of him, shifting close to the wall of his mind and brushing his fur against it.'Feel who?' Milan asked curtly, 'Mate!!' His wolf howled through him, scaring and bringing everyone to a halt with his thunderous howl. Milan jerked, holding down his wolf from breaking free. It took him a few seconds to realize it wasn't just his wolf that howled.Kilan's wolf had done the same too.They ex
Chapter 11 Rizine glanced at the big bed in the middle of the bedroom. The room was coated in dark-brown paint giving her a dreadful feeling. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she stared at the women before her and she bit the inside of her cheeks to refrain from bawling her eyes out. "Why are you crying?" one of the women asked as they took off her clothes. She stood naked before them and they ushered her into the big bathtub filled with scented petals and rose body wash. "I wonder," the second woman added, "She should be grateful that she has been spared instead she is crying." "She's ungrateful. What do you expect from a murderer," the third woman said scornfully. Rizine felt her heart wrench in pain as she stared at them. Her voice was hoarse from screaming, "I'm not a murderer!" Yet, no one had been inclined to believe her. She couldn't blame the twins, they had after all rescued her from Aster and wanted to take care of her but looks like she was a cursed wolf. The wom
Whip! Rizine howled in pain as the whip landed on her bare butt cheeks. "Please, have mercy!" she cried. "You lost count again. Now I'm going to start afresh," Kilian said. Milan chuckled darkly as he sat down on the bed staring at Rizine, heaving and wailing in pain. You shouldn't be feeling smug, you're hurting mate. Milan rolled his eyes at his wolf. Mate hurt us first by killing our father. No, she didn't, his wolf retorted. I'm not having this conversation with you. You should be grateful that I spared her life! With those words, Milan turned off his wolf and then focused on enjoying the show. He would make sure that Rizine is in so much pain and suffering then she would confess who sent her to kill his father. Rizine stared at Kilian with teary eyes hoping he would at least let her be. "Please, I beg of you. Have mercy on me," she wailed. Kilian was having none of that as he stared at her beautiful brown orbs. He had been developing a soft spot for her but she had t
Rizine stared at the massive figure before her, her lips parted slightly from shock as she finally swallowed and seemed to recover herself. "I should have known you were behind this!" she snapped. Then she turned and fled from him to at least warn the twins who their opponent was but a strong grip around her waist stopped her movement. "You're not going to escape me that easily again," Aster sneered. Rizine shuddered as he sniffed her neck and suddenly his eyes flashed from black to their normal colors. "How dare they claim you?!" he roared angrily. Rizine whimpered when he tightened his hold around her waist, she knew her hips would bruise later. "You're hurting me, Aster," she cried. "Shut up!" he yelled at her and smacked her hard across her cheeks. Rizine fell to the floor, stars clouding her eyesight momentarily. "No, please!" she cried, raising her hands to cover her face in case he decided to hurt her more. "You are a fucking slut! Why did you seduce them for them to
Chapter 14 Rizine groaned as she opened her eyes. She felt a splitting headache hit her and she sighed trying to massage her temples but she was shocked when she realized she couldn't move her hands. Her eyes got adjusted to the darkness and she saw she was chained to the wall. She panicked and screamed out. She last remembered being knocked out on her way to inform the twins about Aster's plans. Who could have kidnapped her? She wondered. She tried to wriggle out of the chains but it had sliver coated on it and it kept burning her wrist. Just then the door was slammed open and light flooded into the dungeon where she was kept. Rizine gasped when she saw who stood before her. "Did you honestly think a small knife could kill me?" Aster asked. He walked towards her in a menacing manner and she cowered in the corner. "Please, I didn't mean to stab you I just wanted to get away," Rizine pleaded. Aster chuckled. "I'm certain you didn't because you're a weak wolf and you can't do any
