Chapter 30 Kora's POV I felt very scared and at the same time humiliated, I wondered why no one was willing to purchase me as a slave, I felt the price on my neck brought bad luck to me so I tossed it aside and stood farther from it. I sat down on the sand, thirsty and I would need a good meal to start the day. I waited until sunset, watching five horses riding far off before getting to my position. The first rider stopped as he stared into my eyes, he had his scarf covering all his face except his eyes. “Where are you heading to the young lady?” “I was chased out of my pack for serving the wrong wine to the king. I was banished because of that single mistake. Many have been killed and were thrown into the dungeons to spend a period but mine was different. I was banished out of my pack” I divulged wearing a sad look on my face. “What’s your name young lady?” “My name is Kora. I’m from the west side” I lied knowing that he would try to know the exact pack where I was banished f
Chapter 31 Aeson's POV “I don't know what we're going to do but we have to find that man who paid your man to kill your father” “How would you be getting married to an assassin?” “You were all assassins for your father, don’t act like you’re saints when you’re not” she roared, her words were true. “Yeah, you’re right but we changed, your man hasn’t and I don’t think he’s ever going to change” I chuckled, “I’ve been working on it since we started living together. On the day before my father was killed, he told me that he had one last mission and he was done with anything concerning killing anyone. He never knew he was sent to kill his father-in-law” she explained wearing a sad look on her face. “What if Kora gets missing and someone takes her away from us? Or she does something that she’s scared of us knowing and flees the castle” I wondered how these thoughts erupted in my head. “It wasn’t right to leave our mate behind, we should have carried her along” I sighed as Ras st
Chapter 32 Cace’s POV I wonder what makes him think he can speak whatever he wants and whenever he wants caring less about who's involved or who would be affected. “Hey Ras you can't go at your brother like that, there are things you have to be mature about. Don’t give thought to it, just let him be sometimes you have to act like you’re the eldest” Clara advised Ras, I care less about the look on his face, I missed Kora and I wished to be around her right now. After the meal everyone was shown their rooms, it’s a big house and only Clara lives in it so we should all have rooms of our own. While I was resting in my room, Aeson announced his presence with his words. “Do you think Ras is still having feelings for Clara? I think he’s still having his thoughts channeled to her” “Of course isn’t it obvious? Ras wouldn’t betray Kora by making Clara his woman, we have to find a way to stop it from happening” “Nothing would happen, Clara loves Mason so she would shun his advances” A
Chapter 33 Authors POV “I hope this goes as well as I planned” I divulged staring at the plates filled with chicken stew she made good use of the chicken they had stored. “Let’s see how this goes” She chuckles as she holds onto the tray. “Hey, it’s your dish let the maids hold it out for you. You just stressed yourself in cooking and I’ve been watching you. You’re exhausted so let me help you or let the maids take it from here” “Fine, the maids can go serve the meal, I would be waiting for the ugly remarks from everyone” I chuckled convincing myself that no one would ever give bad remarks about my meal. “I don’t play around making delicious meals so I hope this one soothes their mind.” She thought as she watched the maids pick the plates covered, and followed Cage to the council meeting where her meal was served. I had to follow suit so she could listen to their words, she loved the fact that no one knew she was close to the throne room, she hid behind a pillar so anyone usi
Chapter 34 Authors POV SAGED WOLF PACK The morning sun beamed with so much energy that she felt it over her beautiful skin, staring into the clouds. All she could think about was pleasing Levi’s mother making her accept her as her daughter-in-law and giving them the right to get married. “It’s Levi or no one, I have the ability to change his nature and when I do he would be the best man ever known” She made assumptions that her sister standing behind her wondered if he had two sides. “Why are you speaking like you’ve seen the bad side of Levi?” Ramona stutters, Jada felt Ramona had been there for a while so she might have listened to her words. “You’re now an eavesdropper? Come on Ramona you’re way better than that, you don’t have to do that” Jada complained as Ramona realized she was trying to evade the question and it was only right if she asked again. “Why are you speaking like you’ve seen the bad side of Levi? Is he a monster? Has he ever laid his hands on you?”
Chapter 35 Kora's POV When I kept my eyes glued to the ceiling all I could think about were ways to kill the Lycans, they had me fooled. I wondered why the Moon goddess would want to punish me by mating me with the same people that killed my parents. It’s treachery, I wish I had stayed back in the Saged Wolf pack I wouldn’t have had this revelation and it hurts me now that my parent's murderers are still breathing, and killing them would take more than months of planning. “I have to keep off their path and make sure they never find me, they won’t find me I must be certain about that,” I said to myself as I stared at the man standing beside the wall. “Who’s going to find you?” “No one, no one would find me. Sometimes I just play words in my head so it can come out and stay out if you understand my words. I didn’t mean anyone’s going to find me, it's hilarious” I chuckled at the end to make him feel like I was playing with my thoughts rather than having real thoughts about keepin
Chapter 36 Kora’s POV “I have to make her believe in me, I have to be certain about her cooperation so when Alpha Damek makes her Luna I can plan his death and once it’s achieved I can make her mine and become the next Alpha of this pack” Cage’s thoughts as he forgot Kora waited for his response. “I do… I do not want anything from you just helping you right now my dear. You’re a friend to me and I’m your friend indeed, I saw what she did to you, in no time you’ll hate it here and would want to go back to that hellhole you came from and I wouldn’t want that for you” He cared for me with his words but his motives remained unknown to me. “What do you want Cage? Why are you helping me when I never asked for it?” “You deserve it, you can’t be a slave you’re way more than that and I know it so quit the pretense, you’ve tasted luxury so don’t act like you don’t need the benefits of being the Alpha’s wife” He divulged, his words got to my mind. “Why do I feel that there’s more to this
Chapter 37 Aeson’s POV “Have you ever wondered what would happen to you in a few minutes? I reckon you beg Ras for his forgiveness cause this would he history and I wouldn’t mind assisting in making you a dead man” I chuckled, “Seems they’re ready for the right… guards!!” Staring at the guards, I knew something was wrong they all were afraid of Ras, he clenched his fists knowing how he hated to be betrayed. “Clara you did this just to have us in your nest, something that you don’t know about us is that you should have kept us in different places but we’re all together in one place and we can’t be defeated.” He shifted into a werewolf and the fight ensued, dodging silver bullets, I watched Cace snap heads like a monster set on the loose. He had this figured out so he knew their next moves, I knew Mason and Clara would leave the building and run out and flee the house. “I’ll handle Mason and make sure Clara pays for what she did” Mason words as he jumped into the house, running
Chapter 119 Author's POV "Those words of yours are inappropriate and you know it. She's below my standards and there's nothing I would ever have to do with her no connections so the earlier you all have that at the back of your mind the better for you. I've has enough of this Felicity taunts" Ras divulged as his brothers felt amused by his words. "Why would they keep taunting me about Felicity? She's nothing but a farce that's at the back of my mind she's no one to me not like I shared a connection with her... I don't want her and she doesn't want me and even if she does she can't have me so quitting this would keep my mind in one piece to a certain extent" Ras's thoughts as he waited for their response. "Well now that you've explained to us better I'll let him go but that's when I leave I don't want to set my eyes on him. He can be released when we're way past the borders of the pack" Aeson divulged as his words made a smile on Jada's face as she ran into his arms thanking him fo
Chapter 118 Kora's POV For the first time, I listened to his words and realized that I liked the choice of his words. If Cage wants to go with her then so be it after all his friend has been unfaithful since adam and she's tolerated it enough to get her own new man so he has no choice than to let her off his hook. While resting with Alpha Damek in our chambers, I noticed his heart was beating fast. I wondered if he was thinking about anything, I could tell that he was worried. What if it's something that he doesn't want to share? “What's wrong, Alpha Damek?” I patted his chest as I kept my eyes glued to his eyes. “What do you mean?” “What's wrong with you?” I asked, wondering if he was trying to buy time to lie to me. “Lucas is out there, there's a possibility that we might encounter danger on our way back. That's what I'm deliberating on” he divulged, wondering why he would have thoughts about Lucas in his head. It could only mean that his words were true, but that was the
Chapter 117 Aeson's POV I wondered my brother would think someone had the audacity to poison his meal, if she were caught, and his words were true. I won't mind throwing her in the same place as her father, but I don't think she can poison his meal. “Brother you should watch what you say, we're at a table, so why would you think she poison your meal? I don't think she can be able to do that. Let's stop making assumptions” I cautioned his words as he stared at me for a while before keeping his eyed glued back to Felicity who couldn't stop smiling staring at Ras. We all know she's all over him and the look at the table was one of her advances that Ras would never pay attention to, knowing how Ras loves Kora so much, and we can't wait to be reunited with her and only if she's dead that we can find ourselves a wife again or wonder if the Moon goddess would be kind to give us separate mates. “She should have had a taste of the meal before she threw it off the table” Ras chortles as Fe
Chapter 116 Alpha Damek’s POV I couldn’t deny the fact that Kora had a lot going on in her mind and I needed to know what exactly she had in her mind. Why would she be lost in thoughts when my friend was about to lose his lady and the Luna of the pack? It seemed so odd that she would want to be unfaithful at this time. Cornelius has been unfaithful and I wouldn’t vouch for him on that, I guess this is the consequence of his unfaithfulness. I lost my child, my wife, and my mistress all in one day, and the Moon goddess gave me a second chance in Kora which is why I don’t ever regret meeting her, I would have rejected her on the day we met but I didn’t and now she’s the main source of my peace and happiness, I’ve never been this happy and fulfilled in a woman but that changed when I met Kora and developed deep feelings for her. “Did you even listen to a word I just said Alpha Damek” She shrugged me back to reality before asking me her question. “I didn’t listen to a word you said”
Chapter 115 Ras’s POV “It’s fine I don’t have words to say to you anymore” Cace chuckled as he stared at his brother, he couldn’t deny the fact that this was one of the worst mistakes of his life, letting Lucas get to him. “I got jacked once and that wasn’t intentional cause I fought a lot of bears that day before it got to me and now everyone wants to taunt me for it, it feels like I made a wrong decision, I wished that didn’t happen to me,” I said to myself as I stared at Cace. “I know you must be thinking that you wished it didn’t happen to you… but it did anyway, you just have to redeem it. When we get to Lucas you kill with your hands that way you get to make your impact and let them know that you’re not just the one that got injured by Lucas but the one that killed him” Cace advised, I could tell how bad he wanted to taunt me but he was scared knowing that we’re the only ones in the room and reaching for his neck won’t be a problem. “Do you think Kora is safe?” Cace inqu
Chapter 114 Kora’s POV I knew Alpha Damek wasn’t going to take that likely, hating Alpha Cornelius for the choice of words that he used. It seemed so unreal and very sad, he could tell how much he much he wanted to knock him out. “Alpha Cornelius. You need to leave and watch your words, you’re drunk. I need you to understand this, I don't want to punish you for your words” he divulged, “You are bluffing, why would I be punished in my territory” “Cage escort him to his chambers, it seems this celebration is over before it ever started” Alpha Damek ordered as he tried to assure everyone that he had it under control. “No one taking me to my room” he roared after he stabbed Cage countless times in his ribs, Cage roared at this point. I didn’t notice when his wife picked up a wine vase and smashed it on his head, leaving Alpha Cornelius unconscious. “You don’t dare harm one of my own” She roared as she went straight to Cage to ask about his well-being, The Healer returned with a
Chapter 113 Alpha Damek’s PoV “I guess we didn’t spot an archer on our way to the castle, but I’m guessing this was the wrong target. This soldier was riding alongside Alpha Damek and Kora but I noticed when he stopped a bit, I guess he was making space for me to ride beside you I didn’t know he was shot” Cage divulged as he stared at the man, The Healer got closer to the man. “He’s not going to die” The Healer divulged as he placed a wooden stick in his mouth and in that light he pulled out the arrow. He rubbed ointment on the wound, letting the soldier have some strength to talk. “Alpha Damek, your wife was the target, I tried my best three solid arrows. I didn’t see the last one and I couldn’t scream when it got to me, 'cause I know it would attract your attention and that of the guards.” He divulged, “Thank you for what you did, but what if you had died and we didn’t notice?” “It would have been for a good cause, I mean I saved Luna’s life” I watched the smile on Kora’s f
Chapter 112 Kora’sPOv Listening to the sounds in the bushes I watched Cage and fifteen other men appear out of the bushes, the leader and his men realized that they were surrounded but with the look on his face, I knew he wasn’t going to go down without a fight. “It’s sixteen against six, it’s a fair battle for my men and I. Why don’t we make it even? You choose five of your best men and you square with us, if you lose you give us sixteen bags of gold but if you win you take her and go. It’s a duel for each person or are you scared that these men aren’t strong enough for a fight?” He chuckled at the end of his words I could tell how much he wanted this, Alpha Damek wore a smile on his face as he separated both parties, he selected his soldiers, the ones that escorted us to his pack so the rest were going to be spectators. “Is this really what you want? I don’t want you to lose your men?” “This is what I want or are you scared that you might lose?” He chortles as the maid stares
Chapter 111 Ras’s POV Having mixed thoughts about going to the garden to see Felicity dawned on me, it gave me this silent intrusion of perplexity that overcrowded my thoughts, I found it very hard to think straight, just briefs of everything. It was disorganized. “I thought you would never come” “You made me a nice tasty meal so why would I turn down your invitation, you have your way of making meals to make an impression” “So did I impress you with my neal?” “Yes, you did. I loved the taste of the sauce and everything, top-notch” “That’s the last meal I can prepare. It’s not my first and best” She divulged, her words sounded disrespectful in an indirect manner. Why would she serve me with the least of meals on her food menu? “Why did you do that?” “When we’re married you have the best of my meals on the night you mark me as yours forever” She divulged as she ran her hands over my chest, I felt at ease with her touch, knowing how it felt to to feel the touch of a woman af
