I have my bags over there please could you help me with them?" I asked the guard who was waiting for me to tell him my charge.As we moved , Alpha Leo slept all through in the car, he was damn too drunk and I felt his aura even more stronger.As we entered the compound, there were many guards on the ground all waiting for him. All looked scared and not that free. I wondered if it was the same alpha as my dad." Why the many guards everywhere? What they said about him must be true." I thought under my breath.The compound was looking so fine, it was large but not as large as my father's house. Everything was decorated in neutral shades of blue and white.One of his bodyguards opened his door and helped him upstairs as he staggered.He was still intoxicated, he didn't say a word to any of them and they didn't look surprised like this is a usual routine.Two of his guards came over to the back door where I was seated with my son." You can come down, miss." He said.He opened the door
Few hours later, a knock came on the door.I stood up to get the door but I discovered my head was damn too big, there was this dull headache that occurs fitfully.Opening the door, it was Alpha Leo. All wrecked in alcohol. He staggered towards me."You look so sweet, come to me I need that horny pot, I need it juicy, I trust it is definitely how it is. I paid a huge amount for it."He jumped on my body and wouldn't stop the slurred speeches and I pushed him away.Staggering around my room he asked: " where are you?" His deep voice growled at me and I became scared.I rolled my eyes and didn't answer him. His scent drifted towards me as he made one step closer."Don't ignore your alpha".He snarled at me, baring his hairy chest at me. I pursued my lips and clenched my jaw at his unnecessary display. I took a few steps backwards but he swathed his arm tightly around my waist. Trapping his arms at my side before pulling me closer to him.His heartbeat kept racing fast enough that I coul
Valen's POV"She gave me a dismissive blink that made me look like an insect." I shook my head with my arms crossed."It is all my fault, I should have been upfront with her, I should have told her that I recognized her from that hotel, what was she doing there and how did she get in there all alone?" I muttered, with so much rage."That jerk of a Leo will have to answer me or I wouldn't think twice breaking his damn nose.""Where is he? Leopard! I screamed." Why is Beta valen shouting Alpha Leo's name in that manner even calling out his full name." One of the Guards said, lowering his voice. Unfortunately I heard him as I passed.I walked upstairs, no one seemed to talk to me, everyone was just seated as if they had seen a ghost.I bashed his door. He was not in his room so I decided to check other rooms and found him in one of the guest rooms." Alpha Leo! Leo!" I shrieked his name as loud as my voice could go but he refused to wake.Alpha Leo and I are not just cousins, we are f
"You are very despicable, so all that you care about now is your son, he is now your son. A few hours ago you called this Son of yours a pup and sent him and the mother out in the rain." I said to him, giving him a grimace of disgust."You see Valen, I should have thrown you in pack prison for keeping this away from me, you knew that girl had my son and you kept quiet." He gasped." This is one of the reasons why I decided to keep this away from you, because just like in the past you have never disappointed my instincts."" What crap are you talking about?" He asked me."I knew you would want to hurt this little girl, you would want to keep the child away from her!" I shook my head."You are right, I will keep my son away from her, you want My son to suffer?" He sneered."I am the Alpha of Moonstar pack, the youngest and richest Alpha of his time, why would his only son suffer?" "Look over there: I pointed towards the women selling food stuff. let's come down and ask those women se
Elina's POV5:45 pmIs already 5: 45 pm and this rain just doesn't want to stop. The people that own this shop have come to give me the signal that they will be closing soon. I guess I don't have any other option than to enter this rain to get across the main road to wait for a taxi."Hei Miss!" A voice called from behind.Looking behind is the owner of the shop."You have to find a place to go to. We are about to lock up our store, we are coming from a very far place and we need to leave immediately." He made a pitiful face."Why don't you go to the man that you opened your legs for!" The wife said to me,"You are a bunch of disgrace to your family and community. I pity this small baby, look at how he is shivering from the cold." She snarled at me."It is ok, leave the poor girl alone, her private life is not your business!" He groaned."Why would you not support her when your ex wife was a whore just like her."“My goodness, what the hell is wrong with this woman, I mean why would s
I held the bamboo stick close to my son so tight. While I continued to freak out in fear.After a while he began to smile, I looked at myself to be sure I didn't have a stain on me, could it be that he is laughing at my condition."Is so surprising to me how you can't show any atom of gratitude to a stranger that just saved your life." He scowed.He made a few steps forward and I snorted with fear, and shrank backwards."You don't have to continue moving backwards because you are already at the wall, be careful too so you don't hurt your son."How did he know that my baby is a boy?" I thought."Thank you for saving my life!" I looked away."I don't need your thank you, you are so rude and less mannered." He sighed.I just had to control my emotions, I became so upset, imagine him in my room telling me I am so rude and less mannered.He harrumphed and went towards the door, for a second I felt a relief that finally he is going but hell no, I was wrong."Please can you go now, am ok!"
"Are you not tired standing there please go home or wherever you are coming from!" I said to him.He shook his head sideways and tried to come closer to me but I used the stick to stop him."Am not going anywhere tonight. I am sleeping in your room and we both are going to gist until bedtime, go and make food because I am famished." He said."What! Are you out of your mind? What Should I do?" I sighed"You heard me, I said cook for me, I am hungry." He smiled."Who do you really think you are, that I should cook for you, look please get out of my house!" I groaned at him.."Are you always like this? I mean are you this wicked? I said I am hungry, please get me food to eat." "There is nothing I wouldn't see, how could he ask me to cook for him, that sounds so ridiculous. Who does he think he is?" I muttered within me.As if that was not enough, he grabbed one of the bags in front of him and sat on it. I became more terrified.."What is his plan? Who on his right senses stalks a woman
I pushed him away. But his grip was very firm. He rather pulled me closer and his eyes snapped to mine.He leaned his face closer to mine and his nose brushing on mine. I felt his chest roaring. I gasped and pushed him away forcefully."Please get out of my side, you manipulator, you sure know what you are doing.""Am not doing anything, you tried to fall down and helped you, you would have sustained a big injury and you may accuse me of that too.I felt so embarrassed and pathetic.Imagine falling in his arms, I felt his aura so much but I had to focus on letting my Emotions swallow me. He is damn too cute, his chest tested on me and I must admit I felt like I have never felt before.In the past year now. Apart from my family, no one has shown me love or care about me,talked more about making friends with me. Is so strange how a stranger wants to be my friend.My life is so complicated and I wouldn't want to make it more difficult for myself.I shrank away from his presence and walk
"Is she aware already?" One of the elders whispered in Alpha Lorenzo's ear. Unfortunately, I heard him. "What is he talking about? Am I aware of what?" I was perplexed.. "Please accept our apology. If you can forgive me and your father, then you can forgive all of us." My father pleaded. Mateo looked at me. And gave me a sign to accept their apologies. "I have forgiven you all." They started to come closer to me one after the other, hugging and shaking hands with me. A few minutes later,after the drinks and food were shared, Alpha Lorenzo stood up and came a little closer to where I was seated. "My daughter, you are blessed, and we are lucky to have you in our midst. We all thought you were dead. We have searched for you for more than 6 months now, and we couldn't find you. All thanks to the moon goddess for bringing you back to us." He smiled before looking at the elders. Everyone was waving at him; they all made faces that suggested a go ahead. I became more curious to learn th
"I am scared, Mateo. Do you think they will listen to me? Do you think my father will welcome me?""You have to calm down, my love. The moon goddess knows what she is doing. If you are the chosen one to save the wolf community, then no harm will come to you. The moon goddess will protect you and help you fulfill your destiny.""I am not sure I am ready for that. I am not sure I want to do that for the people who banished me. I am here because I want to seek answers to the mark on our palms. I am not sure I am willing to help them.""Also, now we are very close to my house. No one can find out your true identity. They might hurt you if they find out that you are the monster's son. "Please, on no account, should you disclose it to anyone." I warned him."Why is there no one on the street? Why is there so much silence? This is quite strange.""You worry too much, Elina! "Let us get to the pack house first." He exclaimed.We approached my compound. I peeked through the gate, and I couldn'
"We have to visit your community; we have to leave this place!" He exclaimed, nodding his head."Why did you change your mind? You have never supported me each time I mentioned anything like visiting my community. You have never failed to remind me how wicked they are and how Alpha Leo would kill me. Please tell me why you changed your mind." I asked curiously."My love, just a few minutes ago we saw the golden sign again on our hands. We need an explanation for that. We have to be brave and go to your father. He may have an explanation.""Not just the symbol on our palm, my love, I had a dream again. This time it was very clear, and I don't know how to say this to you."What is it? Please, you know there is nothing you can't tell me, right? I am very curious. "Please tell me." He pleaded while holding my hands.I took a deep breath before removing my hands from his. I folded my hands around my chest and turned my back on him. My heart began to beat fast, and my feet suddenly became c
"You are still here! Why are you stalking me?" Was I not clear when I told you to stay away from me?" I yelled at him while I looked away."I have been at the river.""What! "Don't tell me you spent the night at the river.""Yes, I spent the night at the river. I can't live on your side. Allow me to protect you from my mother. Give me this one more time to prove to you that I am nothing close to my mother.""Stop calling her your mother; use the right word: monster." "Your mother is a deadly monster." I snarled."You are correct. She is not and will never be my mother. In fact, I am not going back to that house. I will stay here with you until we figure out where else to go. Please don't turn your back on me. Believe me when I say I didn't know she was the monster.""Have you gone crazy? You and I know the implications. Your mother would never rest until you returned to her, and she would kill anyone that stood in her way. Please, you have to go back to her.""There is no way I am goi
"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
"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
"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
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
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
