SAMANTHA’S POV“You’re outside?” I asked agitatedly. “Yeah, just look down, get on the terrace or something,” Alpha Derrick uttered. “I am still in my room and on my bed, you better be outside when I get there,” I replied. I took my hoodie and wore a plain leather joggers. My bathtub flip-flops were on my legs when I raced up to the terrace. “Are you for real? How did he get in?” Alpha Derrick waved and I rushed down again to meet him. I dragged him into the lobby cause no one was there. “Why are we hiding, Alpha Herveaux isn’t home, so I heard,” “It doesn’t matter, you’re his sworn enemy, next time just tell me to meet you up somewhere and we’ll settle things,” I responded. I was so scared someone might see us even Daciana that bitch was around. “I can hear you,” he whispered and it tickled me. “Stop it,” I mumbled jokingly. “So are you ready?” he asked straightly. I was frozen. I had anticipated it all through and I still haven’t processed the whole thing. “Of cour
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV“What do you mean by she’s missing? I left them all in here fore I left for war?” I questioned Brenda and ordered that some of my wolves followed her. I wanted her to come talk with me. The store that day they might have been the ones that attacked her and probably threatened her. That incident couldn’t just be a coincidence. “What could be wrong? This mansion is big enough for her to get lost though,” My wolf was at peace so I wasn’t worried. “Auriel? What are you up too? And Daciana? She left hurriedly too before I could even figure it all out,” “Omega Herving!” I summoned him. I tld him too look out for Luna Rudnina. Dacaian rushed there hurriedly and wouldn’t give me a valid reason for doing so. The search on Auriel began and the sun would soon rise in a few hours. I had such I long day tha hasn’t even started. “They’ve found her Beloved Alpha and she’s here just as you’ve requested,” Miranda said.. She wanst the one I sent to look for her. It w
Samantha’s pov.I should have known the date would end up being a sham, but I will still have to play along. Anything to make him believe that I am still head over heels for him. Alpha Draglun called, and it almost ruined all my plans for Alpha Heveaux. My heart skipped a beat when he asked me to pick up the call. “What did he say?” I asked him intently. “It’s about Daciana,” he responded. I hissed loudly. “Do you see it now? You just threw a tantrum for nothing, just to realize that it was even about that annoying bitch!” I snapped.“I am sorry,” he grumbled. “Say it out loud; this is the first time, and it should be good!” I teased him. I think we need to find her. Alpha Herveaux suggested“Why ? Is she in danger?” I inquired unbotheredly. “He sounded that way; she called up last night for help, but he couldn't; he thought she was up to her usual tricks," Alpha Herveaux responded. “If you don’t mind, I will be going to the Sun Valley Pack to check on her." Alpha Herveaux
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV"Hold on Omega Herving." I twitched and retracted my steps. He delged his claws deeper into the ground so he could also come to a stop. "We are almost there, Beloved Alpha," he said, panting breathlessly. "I know; my instincts tell me something is wrong; I need to go back to the mansion, you go ahead, I will summon Beta Fernando to join you," I ordered. I felt a strange energy when Auriel slipped earlier. I was about to check it out when Omega Herving came with his report. "I will not be swayed from reality because I want to please the wolves," I mumbled. I raced back to the mansion and observed the whole place. Nothing seemed off or out of place. Everything was in order, and the gate was even locked. "Get Beta Fernando here for me," I commanded. He went for a few minutes and came back after I sent another.""He’s not in the mansion, beloved Alpha," he responded. "What do you mean? I left him here not too long ago." I asked furiously. "I will handle th
SAMANTHA’S POVLaying on Alpha Herveaux's chest and sleeping so peacefully was the opposite of what I felt earlier on. At firstMy heart stopped beating when Alpha Derricik told me that Daciana was sitting next to me. "How the hell didn’t I see her?" . That wasn’t the only scare of my life until we were told Alpha Herveaux didn’t fall for the trick and we needed to switch things up. "What if he had found out? What could have happened?" That didn’t matter anymore. Alpha Derrick’s plans worked, he made me pretend I was lured there and then held captive. It still baffles me that Alpha Herveaux fell for the feigned story. He didn’t even ask. "I think he’s fallen in love with you and never wants to doubt you," Valerie whispered. It made me squirm. "It’s too late for me to feel anything," I responded. Daciana popped up in my mind again. She was totally controlled. ordered to move, and she wasn’t herself. When I meet with Alpha Derrick again, I have to know what they did to her.
DACIANA’S POV.In this web of darkness I have created for myself, I am left with only two choices: to fight or to fight. No one controls Daciana. Falcone and Alpha Derrick ripped me off my freedom and made me sit with them at the next meeting just for that seamless human to utter foolishly that she couldn’t see me. Alpha Derrick assured her to play along in fooling Alpah Herveaux. Their stupid plan seems to be working out. I can’t believe I wanted to speak with him, and he insisted on having that human here with us."I will make them regret letting me go," I rustled. "She’s gone for minutes, and you’ve been silent?" Apha Herveaux grunted. "I was thinking about everything, my beloved Alpha, you and her," I laughed. "Sorry, it just doesn’t fit your personality," I responded. "Go straight to the point, there is a lot I want to ask, and you also have a lot to say," he responded anxiously. "You go ahead, ask me," I muffed. "The first time you disappeared, that’s during th
SAMANTHA’S POV.My conversation with Cervantes has never ended well, and like every other time, it ended in either confusion or a threat. As I settled into the impromptu change in decision, I had a hard time processing all he said about me falling into a trap. "If I am in my right mind, why will I fall into a trap?" Miranda came in unannounced, and I didn’t even notice until she tapped me. "Beloved Luna, Alpha Herveaux has summoned you," she echoed. "Oh, damn," I jerked. "Thank you; I will join you soon," I responded. "Aren’t you changing or doing something different? I saw his Prime leave not long ago," Miranda urged. I wasn’t just in it for the competition, at least not at this crucial moment. I went to see Alpha Herveaxu in his room. He was having his bath, and he asked me to join him. I declined sheepishly and just opted to kiss him. Daciana barged in on us, and I could only kiss him intensely to spite her, and she left. "Won’t you ask why I called you up?" Alpha
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POVIf she turns her back on me, I will have no one to blame but myself. She loved me, but I pushed her away. While I was afraid and insecure, I repeated the same mistakes I made with Ashina."I will right all my wrongs and make her choose," I said to Tristan. I decided to follow Daciana’s advice, even though it’s without letting her know I would do so. I just knew she wasn’t herself. She might be telling the truth, but at the same time, she is hiding a whole lot from me."No, I don’t want it," Auriel retorted. "Why? I am giving it to you because I trust you," I insisted. Auriel held her head down closely. "STOP!!!" she screamed. "Who are you talking to? I don’t see anyone here." I asked her weirdly with a laugh. "I know the key comes with a lot of responsibilities, but giving it to you might bring me peace; no one would know," I responded. It was tough persuading her but she did accept it in the end. She moved closer slowly, peering into my eyes as she moved."
SAMANTHA’S POV. ONE YEAR LATER. His broad hand drew me into his arms with a tight hug that i felt in my soul. "Happy birthday, my beloved Luna," his coarse, seductive voice whispered in my ears."Hmmm," I heaved, still pretending to be asleep. He placed a small box beside me. "I want to go to the bath; will you join me? I know you’re awake," he uttered. He took off his clothes, and I fell in love with him all over again. It was my birthday again, a day I have regretted and wished never came just because of that unforgettable night. Alpha Herveaux changed that. It became a day I now look forward to."So what’s my first gift?" I asked him jokingly. "Me!" he coerced seductively. "What else can I ask for? Can I have you now?" I can’t wait to see his expression when he finds out I am pregnant with his child. "That night a few months ago, I thought you left; I would have been miserable without you. Thank you, Samantha," he uttered as he made out with me.He carried me down to
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.I rolled to the other side of the bed, expecting a push or a sound, but none was forthcoming; Auriel had left. It sent me a bewildering, intense feeling of sadness that swept all my happiness away."Don’t be sad; she probably went for the kill; only she can defeat Falcon," I consoled Tristan. If it turns out otherwise, then I’ll just go with the flow. I am back to full strength. Before Sunrise reveals its glory, I will go and defend the city. It won’t go down with me alive.She left the clothes she had picked out for me to wear at the extreme edge of the bed. She still cares, but maybe as a friend and not as my Luna.The clothes seemed like camouflage. There was no way I could hide without getting spotted or noticed; it was pointless hiding or wearing camouflage. I got dressed and was ready for the kill. I stepped out, and a smile returned to my face when I saw the moon. I growled. It meant she was still around. "I hope she sees me before leaving," I wished o
SAMANTHA’S POV. My heart fluttered watching him sleep soundly like a baby. His heart was beating slowly, and his face had a mild smile. "I am his peace," I muttered, blushing uncontrollably. "I’m sorry, my love, I’ll have to leave before you wake up. Just let’s stay alive all through. I really can’t decide now." I whispered and kissed him goodbye.I didn’t care if I would make it or not, but my love for him and his children was driving me to my peak."Avayah, Valerie, we are going to find Falcon and kill him. Easy, right?" I asked them jokingly. I tiptoed out of Ashina’s house so Herveaux would continue his sound sleep. The only place on my mind where I felt I could find Falcon was at Derrick’s mansion, the same place where Alpha Herveaux was held hostage. The mansion was miles away from the house. I wondered what made Ashina come this far and live there alone; not even Herveaux knew of the place. "Thank you, Avayah; you led me there, right?" I shifted like a pro as I ra
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.The wavering sounds of the waters at the sea stirred my eyes to open and my soul to awaken. Still in pain, I struggled to get up on my feet. "Hey, just lie down there; you’re still hurt."The voice I had always wanted to hear spoke to me. I beamed with a smile and fell back onto the bed. She hurried up to meet me."Herveaux, are you with me?" She asked worriedly, holding my hands. She placed my hand on her face. It still felt like a dream. I never knew she’d return to me. Especially now that I needed her the most."Samantha?" I murmured tiredly. "Yes, it’s me; I am here," she responded. My hands found her blonde hair, and I flicked them away from her face. "You’re beautiful," I said to her, smirking."I know there is no time to waste; tell me what to do; how can I heal you?" she asked instantaneously. She dragged me up the wall so I could rest my back. "Where is this place?" I asked anxiously. I had never been there, and it was pleasant. "It Belonged to
SAMANTHA’S POV. Gwendolyn helped me pack my bags. She was skeptical about it at first, then I was the one eager to leave."Will you tell your father about it first? Have you made any plans?" She asked me carefully. "None for now. I have been trying to call Alpha Draglun, but he isn’t responding. Do you think he’s also caught in this?" I asked her concernedly. "Keep calling, he might answer before you get there. Your father is not home right now. I will just tell him when he returns," Gwendolyn responded impatiently. I sat down on the bed tiredly. "Why are you acting like this?""Don’t tell me you’re backing out or having second thoughts, okay let’s do this, if the thing get out of your control, just say goodbye and come back to us, how about that?" Gwendolyn asked. Gwendolyn was done packing my bags. She collected the cellphone from me and put it inside. "So how do you get there? You’re not going by car, right?" she asked confusedly, and it made me blush. "Partly by ca
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV. The dangers of the night were out; the whole place was dark and sneaky. Not a single soul was around. The whole place was dark, and the absence of the moon didn’t go unnoticed. For once, I doubted the information Brenda gave me. It came so easily; just a few minutes after she left me, she returned overhead and came to me. "I don’t mind; I have no other choice," I said loudly to myself to stop the non-stop pondering in my mind. I checked the whole area. The woods, underneath, and even the sea that was nearby, but there is no sign of anyone there. "I will wait a while and leave if no one shows up," I coerced. I checked the paper she gave me again. "It’s here; I definitely am in the right place. Where are you hiding my children, Falcon?" I whispered, still searching. "Right here!" he responded with a wild roar. He threw Miranda’s body down from the tree. "Damn you, Falcon, I knew it!" I groaned painfully. She was still alive but writhing in pain."Don’t wor
SAMANTHA’S POV. He was dressed in the prisoner’s uniform. It suits him really well. "I still can’t believe I once liked men that looked like him," I whispered into Gwendolyn’s ear."You’ve said that before, okay? Thanks to Herveaux, you got to know there were better men than he was," she snapped.Lorenzo was called up, and he was sitting right in front of me. He was sad and teary. "I will have my revenge, Lorenzo; I really can’t wait to crush you and end your life; no one will save you from me," I said to him."I will take whatever punishment you give me; please spare my wife and our innocent baby," he pleaded with me. He fell on his feet and held onto my legs.I kicked him off angrily. "The police, you can’t assault him," Gwendolyn pulled me back."Dummy, I tipped them off; I am Samantha Eduardo!" I replied, laughing loudly, and continued kicking him. "I will kick them out of that house and throw them into the streets. You did the same to my innocent father, so why can’t I do th
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.Fernando fought against me with all his might, and I realized he wouldn’t stop until he was dead. I stopped fighting him. "I did you no wrong! I need to go save my children. I will kill you this time if you attack me again," I said to him."No, you will have to go through me!" he growled wildly. "You’re not in control Fernando, you can still get yourself back; I don’t want to kill you," I pleaded, ready to give up everything. It hurt so much to see the man who raised you like a father ready to kill you. I know he wasn’t as powerful as I was, but living with the guilt of killing him would be hard on me. "I forgive you for everything you’ve done against me, even though you think I was the one who offended you!" I yelled. "You were ready to choose another Beta and shamefully disperse me; you never trusted me; you handed over the throne to your brother; you could have promoted me to Alpha!" he grunted.It sounded so odd. I never knew he wanted to become Alp
SAMANTHA’S POV. I snuggled my body meekily under the tender, silky cover on my bed. My back ached so bad, but it’d turn into a soothing pain as I starched on the bed.My normal routine before sleeping started, whereby I had to think about every disgusting thing I did that day and even years ago, blame myself, praise myself a little, and have a mixture of regrets."Did I do the right thing with Alpha Draglun?"I shunned him. I could have just said NO politely, but I said it in a rage. I just hope he understands that I don't want that life anymore. Alpha Herveaux is the strongest man I know, and I believe he can fight off whoever threatens his pack. Moreover, He places it on a high pedestal, so he’ll never watch it fall."I just hope my thoughts are right," I said, thinking out loud. Like usual, I fell asleep without knowing it; all I knew was that I felt peaceful with a great ache in my heart that I refused to acknowledge.I felt a soft, hairy hand on my face. "Alpha Herveaux,"
