"Where is Alpha Valeria? Are we all just going to stay here all day waiting for him? It's been one hour since we came here." Alpha Leo sighed and sat down.Everyone seated looked at him but didn't say a word to him. It is very funny how all of a sudden he is interested in killing this monster. Everyone sighed at his comments. The entire room remained silent until a member of the elders in council spoke up."I just spoke with Alpha Valeria; he is on his way to this place. His car had a flat tire, and he pleaded with everyone to be patient with him." He said to them,Alpha Leo continued to murmur to himself. His face was all laced with anger. He tried so hard not to burst out. He kept looking around and making an uncomfortable sigh.A few minutes later, Alpha Valeria and his bodyguards arrived at the place."Please, I am very sorry for keeping everyone waiting." He said he was waving at everyone except Alpha Leo."Now that Valeria is here, can one of the elders open the book? Let's find
A month has passed, yet the wolf community has still not found Elina or the monster's son. The worst part is that no one knows who the monster's son is or even where to find him."It is your fault that this kind of calamity befalls our people. "You are wicked, and I can't wait to see you pay for all the evil deeds you have committed," Valen yelled at Alpha Leo, who was seated calmly on his couch and thinking about how he could get revenge on the monster."You have suddenly grown a dumpy ear. Are you not Alpha Leo again? Are you not the king of all the Alphas, as you claimed in the past? Stand up and talk to me. Stand up and face me. You think I wouldn't find out? "You think I will remain a fool forever?" Valen sighed and went back to his seat."What are you talking about? What is the truth? Alpha Leo turned around and smacked his eyes at him.Valen narrowed his face at him too, with his face getting more reddened, and he didn't stop to clench his feet. He can't say much to him since h
Elina's pov"Yes, yes, of course I will marry you!" I jumped up and felt those lovely butterflies in my belly.Mateo lifted me up and carried me from where we were seated outside to the river."Why are you carrying me like a baby? Why are we going to the river?" I asked in amusement."We are going to swim together, my love!" He kissed my forehead."So when did you start swimming? You told me in the past that you have a water phobia. When has all that changed?""Today, my love. You just made me the happiest man on earth. Today I am now counted among the blessed in the land of the living. The most amazing and adorable woman said yes to my proposal. I will do what she has been begging me to do in the past. I will enter the water today just to prove to her how grateful and happy I am.""Silly boy! You don't have to enter the river to show me that you are happy, my love. You don't have to do it. Please, can you drop me down? Your hand should be hurting you. The river is still a bit far!" H
Alpha Valeria's POV"It has been three months now; the entire community has been searching for my daughter, yet no one seems to know about her. The warriors of our land have made the forest their home. They are instructed to stay around the forest in case they see her. Does it mean that my daughter is dead?" Tears rolled down my cheeks."You have been here all day. One of the maids just told me that you didn't eat your lunch. What is troubling you, my Alpha?" She questioned me while patting my back.I harrumphed before I looked up."It's about Elina, our daughter. Do you think she might be dead? What if the monster has devoured my daughter? I will never forgive myself for letting stupid traditions blind me. I am left with this guilt that won't stop haunting me. I have to do something. I have to let our elders have second thoughts about this tradition.""I remember countless times how I begged you in the past not to banish your own daughter. What did you tell me? You said you had to re
Mateo's POV."What could be the meaning of what happened to us a few days ago? What could be the meaning of that symbol? I don't know much about tradition. I don't even believe in the moon goddess or the stories people tell about her. Yes, it is true she is the owner of my fate, but I don't just like to talk about her in the manner others do. I may have to tell my mother. She would be in the best position to explain what that could mean. Yes, I have to go!" I shook my head sideways and left my room for my mother's."What is the problem? You have been acting strangely and very calmly since yesterday. Is there anything bothering you?" She asked me with her face all laced in curiosity."Yes, something is bothering me." I responded in a wavering voice. I was still very scared of what the outcome of this would bring."Go ahead, son! Talk to your mom. What is bothering my son? "Come over here!" She dragged me to her bed, went to the fridge, and grabbed two bottles of chilled water. She was
"Where could she have gone to? I have searched thoroughly everywhere in the compound, but there is no trace of her, not even her scent." I pondered while sitting on the couch outside. "Now this is another opportunity for me to sneak out to go visit Elina. I am sure Mom is safe, and she probably must be at the clinic." A thought pushed through my mind as I had a fluttery, empty feeling in my stomach. I stood up and smiled. I feel a twinge of excitement roll over my belly. The thought of Elina completes me, and I am not leaving her, not even because of my mother or anyone else. I swiftly ran to my room and slipped on my shirt. I didn’t bother wearing perfume, as that would be wasting my time. ———————- "What is that sound? Is strange. Over the two years I have been in this forest, I haven’t heard such noise before. Could it be that the forest animals have finally decided to hunt me? No one would believe that not even an ant has bitten me ever since I lived here." I pondered while my e
"You have to stay away from me. Just so you know, I don't believe anything you say. You are the monster's son that the entire wolf kingdom has tirelessly searched for over the years. You are the son of the monster that took my only son away from me. How could I have not noticed that my boyfriend is the son of the beast that has killed and is still killing the werewolves?""Stay away from me, and don't come any closer to me!" I snarled, grabbing a long stick in my hand to hit him in case he tried to touch me."I am innocent; I am just as surprised as you are. I don't know how else to convince you that I have no idea who my mother was. How would I want to hurt you? You have known me for two years now. You saw how interested I was in helping you locate this beast that hurt your son. I never knew she was the masked monster the entire Wolf Kingdom is looking for." He knelt down and let out a loud cry."You have to leave now. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. I can't mar
"My Alphas, the worst has happened. Abomination! Abomination!" One of the guards shouted."What is the problem? What abomination are you talking about? One of the elders questioned him curiously."Where is Alpha Leo? We have been here for over two hours this morning, and he is still around. He is basically the only one yet to be present." Alpha Lorenzo snarled."Let the young man speak!" He requested."My Alpha, Alpha Leo, was found lifeless in his chambers, and as we speak, all the guards and domestic staff have all run away.""What do you mean he is lying lifeless?" I spoke with him two days ago. "What happened to him?"Everyone seated at the town hall began to murmur. Some were looking happy, as if they actually wanted something bad to fall on him. Some people who sat at the back all came forward to clearly hear what the guard had to say about Alpha Leo."Everyone shouldn't be. Please go back and let's hear what he has to say. There is no need to crowd him. "If we can keep quiet, n
