We entered the room Valen was in. He was shocked to see me and said he couldn't remember what had happened. He wouldn't stop questioning me about my son."Where is Little Leo, and what am I doing here?" He questioned me again, and this time around I got so angry that I couldn't control my urge to flare up."Stop! Stop; you will kill him, my Alpha!" The security guard dragged my hands off his neck. He began to cough, and the guard got so scared that he rushed to call the nurses.I faced the windows with one hand in my pocket as my face reddened more. The nurse came in and asked the guard to leave. She dare not ask her alpha out. All I felt in me was to just kill him once and for all. He is to blame for my son's death. He did not protect him as he promised me. He should be the one dead, not my son."He needs some rest now, my Alpha." The nurse exclaimed and slammed the door.I furiously got closer to him. I used the pillow to press hard on his freaky damn face.I stopped immediately whe
"You are crazy to think I could kill my own nephew. I have told you that I fought with my last breath to protect him from the monster. How could you think I would do that to my own blood?" Please stop this madness, Leo!" Valen shrieked and pushed me off his path.I will get to the root of all this; I will surely find out how my son, whom I entrusted in your hands, was killed by the monster and you didn't sustain any injury."I know you are happy now. I am left without an heir!" Tears rolled down my cheek, but I swiftly looked up. I don't want him or anyone else's pity on me."I need you to summon the chiefs and alphas of the entire community." Take my word to them that we will all be meeting at the town hall at noon."Now more than ever, I will fight with every fiber in me to destroy this monster. I will kill him with my bare hands if I have to. That is what I owe my son: to seek justice and take revenge on the beast that murdered him." I muttered to myself."Finally, you have realized
"Yes, the baby that was killed is my son. A lot of you have been asking questions, and I believe I have answered them all. Let no one ask any further questions about my son, and I will not be responding to anyone.""Tell them the entire truth, Leopard. Tell them who the mother of that child is. Tell them how you made my pack extradite an innocent girl, all because of you. Tell them how you tortured her and took her son away from her for two good years until the monster killed him!" Alpha Valeria stood up and narrated angrily."Why not tell them yourself, since you want to play the victim?" Let them know what a good father you were to your darling daughter. Were you not the Alpha who banished her from your pack?" I asked him, narrowing my eyebrows at him."What is going on here? What are you both talking about? It looks like there is a lot you both have been hiding from us. Who is this lady that was banished, and how is she related to both of you?" one of the Alphas questioned.The ent
"You have to get ready. They are coming for you, and you must fulfill your destiny. You must find him. He is very close. Look around you and beyond."I jumped up immediately from the mat on which I lay. Looking at my wrist watch, it is barely 4 a.m. in the morning. I must admit that I am very scared. My heart hurts and my head aches the moment I try to piece together the dreams I have been having lately. I touched my chest, and I could hear and feel my heart beating. It was very noisy, like it was trying to explode."Who is this lady that would always come to my dreams, and she has refused to let me see her face for once?" She is full of wisdom because her words are all laced with wisdom. What does she want from me? What destiny is she referring to? I kept pondering my thoughts while sticking my face on the roof.This forest has become a very big part of me. At first, it was very scary to live alone here, but with time, I got used to it, and I must say I enjoy living here. Is very pea
He just didn’t want to look me in the face. He kept staring at me without saying a word, and I remained mute with my worried face. He hugged me so tight, yet he was still quiet.I harrumphed, loosening up from his grip and grabbing his hands before I interrupted the silence."My love, what is the matter with you? You don’t look okay. It has been over 30 minutes since you arrived here, and you haven’t said a word to me. All you do is stare at me and sigh. What could be the problem, my love? You know, we don’t keep stuff away from each other. Talk to me; your silence is killing me already." I took his hands and kissed them."My love. Is not about me. You know I can’t be angry at you for a long time. Besides, you have not done anything to me. Please calm your nerves, my love!" He hugged me so tight this time."I know he is hiding something from me. Why is he so cold? What is it that he is not telling me?" I thought within myself.His heartbeat became noisy, and I could feel his trembling
Alpha Leo's pov"It has been two days. I haven't heard a word from the Alphas or the council of elders since the last meeting we heard concerning sending in their representatives to come meet with the sorcerer. I am beginning to get worried about that and am losing it." I screamed and used my legs to hit the side stool in front of me. Valen didn't just behave as if he heard me, and that got me more angry."Valen Valen!" I shouted his name, yet he didn't just want to answer; rather, he continued to sip his alcohol"Why are you yelling?" He finally spoke."For more than two years now, our people and other communities have waited and pleaded with you to allow them to come speak with the sorcerer, and you blatantly refused, and now you want them to just listen to you just like that? Is only two days old, and you are about to explode. He sighed and looked away."I just feel like strangling him to death myself. He really got on my nerves by speaking to me in that manner. What is really giv
"No, no, my son can't be dead; you are not sure what you heard or whom you saw." I screamed and pushed him away.I sat on the ground, wishing death would come and take me as well. Why did I not die from fainting? Why did I wake up? The only hope I had after I was kicked out was to move on with my life. Even after he was kidnapped, I was hopeful that he was alive. My motherly instincts were very correct. Now I believe that he is truly dead. No wonder I was feeling the way I felt the last few days."You have to put yourself together, my love. Valen said he tried his best to protect and save him from the monster, but it looked like the monster was only interested in killing your son. According to him, he said that the monster didn't even want to hurt him. He rather pushed him away, and he slumped. He said that was all he remembered, and the next thing was him waking up and realizing he was already at the hospital. He further told me that Alpha Leo, just like you, was very sure he had you
Author's pov"There must be another way. Are we going to keep quiet and watch the monster destroy and wipe out our entire community? I suggest we may have to seek help from the human world. "We may have to request their help with their scientific knowledge," Alpha Lorenzo said furiously."They will not listen to us. In fact, have we all forgotten so soon that in the last 7 years we all agreed with the human world that none of us shall transcend each other's world? I think seeking help from them might not be the best option." One of the elders said this and sat down."Had it not been for your selfish and heartless heart, we would have met the sorcerer before she died. Now look at the position you have put us all in. You are very wicked and don't deserve to be here as one of the Alphas." Alpha Valeria yelled out.Alpha Leo, to everyone's surprise, didn't say a word to what Alpha Valeria had said. This is very unusual for a whole Alpha Leo to remain mute after someone like his most fierc
