Fidelis’s heart was pounding in his chest as he searched for Alicia in the dense forest. The trees were so thick that he could barely see the sky above, but he was determined to find her.Without the alpha's knowledge, he had left the pack house as he set out to find Alicia.“I will go with you,” Zed had said to him.“Thank you,” Fidelis replied him, “but I must go alone. I wouldn't want to put your life at risk for her.”But no matter what he said to deter him, Zed remained unfazed, as he remained determined to go look for Alicia. He had sensed an opportunity to finally get one over Damon by proving to Alicia that he still loved her, even though she had rejected him for Damon.“I will take my chances,” he looked at Fidelis with the confidence of one who knew what lay ahead and was ready for whatever the consequence.“Don't say I didn't warn you,” he said to him. And so, having waited until everyone had gone to bed, they set out, their footsteps as silent as the whispers of a graveyar
After Juliana left, he had tried to convince Alicia to return with him to his pack.“Seeing you have no place to call home, you should come with me. Together, we will build a pack of your choice,” he said to her.“Sounds enticing, but no,” she said.“Why?,” he asked, surprised. He must have thought she would grab that ‘opportunity’ with both hands.“I just can't make another mistake, Frederick. You're a nice person, but I wanna be alone.”“I will come back for you,” he said to her, as he departed.Frederick’s heart was pounding as he stormed through the pack’s territory, his mind consumed with anger and frustration. He had lost Emily, the love of his life, and he knew exactly who was to blame. The alpha, Lord Zack, had made a grave mistake by interfering in his personal life, and Frederick was determined to make him pay. He didn't care that he was his father and that he was ruthless. If he had to go down fighting, so be it, he thought.“Hey, Frederick! You’re back. Where have you been
The early morning dew clung to the grass, glistening in the light of the rising sun. The air was crisp and cool, and the forest was alive with the sounds of birds and small animals. Alicia and Zed had been traveling for days, and they were both exhausted.He had managed to convince her to return to her pack. She had no idea why she didn't say no, just like she had said to the others who had tried to talk her out of it.“We should rest here a little. I'll go in search of some fruits,” he said to her.“Be careful,” she said behind him.He turned around for a second and smiled at her. It felt like his plans were all coming together.“Soon, she will be mine. I won't need to worry over that stranger anymore,” he reasoned, referring to Damon.Alicia, though suspicious of his motive, found herself admiring him. For the first time in what looked like ages, she really turned her eyes in his direction. He didn't look out of depth to her, but then, he was more of a brother to her.“Here,” he sai
“Come on in, Damon!” Fidelis nearly shouted, getting frustrated.“I'm sorry,” he said, immediately he walked in.Right at that moment, everything froze. It felt like life was suspended for them. Damon and Emily were both taken aback when they saw each other. They looked lost, as if they had just seen a ghost. Damon, who had brought black coffee for Emily on Fidelis’ request, was so surprised that he mistakenly dropped the cup, causing the contents to spill on Fidelis and Emily.“Holy smokes!,” Fidelis exclaimed, furious. “What the fuck did you just do!?.” He nearly hit him, but Damon swiftly evaded his punch.“I'm really sorry,” he offered his apology, quickly realizing what he had just done. “It slipped off my hands.”“Get the fuck out of here!,” he yelled at him. “You better return to clean the mess. You will pay for this, I swear,” he added, as he sent him away.“I'm sorry,” he said again, as he dashed off, still stunned.Fidelis, still raging, watched on until he was out of sight.
The pack had known nothing but peace for years, but now, they walked, looking over their shoulders; they were under attack by a rival pack. No one knew who they were, or what they wanted. They didn't even leave a trace of them anywhere. All the people ever knew were traces of their ruthlessness.The news of Jason’s death had spread like wildfire. Against the alpha's warning, he had gone hunting, alone.“Why should I be afraid of a pack of faceless motherfuckers?,” he had asked Zed, his anger rising. “If they are really as strong as they make you and the others believe, they should face me alone. I swear on my blood, I will return with the head of their leader, and then you will know why there is a venom in me,” he added.Seeing that he was past convincing, Zed let him be. “I hope you return with your head on your body,” he had said to him.Just as he had predicted, heads rolled, only that it was his. His head was sent to them, with the inscription, written with his blood, “WE ARE COMI
Fidelis walked down the dimly lit hallway of the omegas’ quarters. The walls were lined with torches that flickered in the cool night air. He was looking for Damon. Since he helped him regain the use of his legs, he has not been able to thank him.“I don't think I have been fair to him,” he said to Emily earlier that day.“What are you talking about?.”“If he were to be Podolski, the alpha would have thrown a feast in his honor.”“But he doesn't know, remember. Maybe we should keep it that way.”“You think?”“I know.”“But I should thank him. He deserves to know that he saved my ass.”As he approached the door to Damon’s room, he saw Tom, another omega.“Damon isn’t here,” he said. Considering it was a rarity to have him visit their quarters, it wasn't even a task knowing who he had come for.“Any idea where he went?,” he asked, frustrated that he had walked the distance just to be disappointed.“He went to the alpha’s chamber on the alpha’s request.”“When is he returning?.”“I have
Zed walked up to Damon, smiling.“I sense trouble,” Tom whispered to Damon, upon sighting Zed. “I’ll see you later,” he said, as he quickly walked away.“Hey, Damon,” he started, still smiling.“I swore not to cross your path, and I haven't done that since you returned with her,” he said, not even bothering to look his way. Clearly, he didn't fancy his presence.“Come on, Damon, I haven't come to fight. I came to thank you for saving my friend,” he said.Damon looked at him skeptically. “Is that all?” he asked, unimpressed. He was not about to be fooled. He knew more than most how deceptive Zed was. Surely, he had not come to thank you for helping Fidelis walk again. After all, he had clearly shown his disgust towards him the moment Fidelis could feel his legs again.“You think you've won?,” he had whispered to him“Hey, come on, Damon, I know you don’t like me, but we can’t keep being enemies forever. I’m sorry about the way I treated you in the past, but I come in peace.”Damon rai
Fidelis had been planning to reward Damon for helping him walk again, but he didn't know how to go about it. He decided to speak with Emily about it.“What should be done for the one whom I ask to reward for his kindness towards me?,” he asked her.“You must surely speak of that omega, Damon,” she said.“Yes, I speak of him. He saved my ass and I must return the favor. But I don't know how to go about it.”“Give me a moment to come up with something, please,” she said to him.“You have it, but make it quick.”That was her moment. Since she met him, she had noticed that one thing was missing from Damon's body: the necklace which had the key to their pack's history. She knew about it through her late boyfriend, Jack, who was Damon's best friend. Even though she had not asked Damon about it, she knew something was wrong. While she was still thinking of what to do, Fidelis reappeared.“You must surely have thought of something,” he said, looking curious. “Let me hear it.”“Is there any pr
