36Does he think I would give up my father's throne just because of his empty threats? Oh! This man is testing my patience. I had nothing else to say to him. I have said everything I want to say. I just hope he won't say something that would force more words out of me. So he isn't contented with my father's money and gold that he had stolen? How dare he? How dare he walk into my father's territory. My territory!"You can leave now, Marcus," I said turning my back on him. "I will leave whenever I feel like I want to leave. Remember I am still the beta?" He boasted and that alone makes me sick. I turned to him. "Who granted you that title?" I asked folding my arms. "Your father. The past Alpha." "Well he is dead now and if you continue to behave like this, I have every right to take it from you. The title. Beta."I shot him a death glare And I expected him to leave but he didn't. Instead, he waited and looked as if I wasn't talking. Of course, I am talking. "Got anything else to
37The alarm burst and I groaned so loud that I didn't know when I pushed the alarm on the floor and it shattered into pieces. It stopped ringing out loud immediately. I rolled to the other side of the bed. I was still enjoying sleeping because I slept at only three am in the morning. I was attending to all necessary meetings. It was hectic and it was now that I knew that the work of an Alpha is so stressful. Especially last night, I had to be calculative, expressive, and steadfast. I kept getting everything right and I was able to meet with some of my father's employees I was also told that Marcus had kicked some innocent employees out of the company without doing anything wrong. Some were guilty of little mistakes that could be fixed. I felt bad for those employees so I asked the old employees to send their contacts. Gosh! I think I would need a personal assistant for this. I don't have anyone and I need to watch out for someone who could handle the job well. Several meetings h
38I just had to apologize to the woman and it was good she gave us a month to fix the problem. She was kind enough. I couldn't hold this in anymore. I need to call the elders and report him before I know the next action to take. But I need to solve the problem on the ground first before I have anything to say. I faced the manager in charge of the department who followed Marcus's orders to shut down till I found a solution to it. When I am back from school, I will surely meet with Elder Blake. I need them to say something. "Please ma'am, I am begging you. I can't shut it down.""Oh! So you know that you can't shut it down but you followed his despicable orders. That's not fair at all. Well, it has been done, I need you to shut it down or I will do it myself."He knows my meaning of shutting it down. It meant that I need him to leave the office. I will just employ another person to handle it. I can't work with people who don't put other people's interests before theirs. They have no
39Aiden's POVHow could she join our school without telling me? I thought we were friends. I walked out of the class without saying anything. But the one on my mind now is my mate. Kira. She looked really pretty today. Ever since we have gone on the date, she doesn't give me the time I needed or wanted. She caught me when I was talking to her last night when she told me that I wanted to see her naked. Fuck! I know. I can't resist her no matter what. I can't even explain this feeling anymore. Does she not want me or she is just busy? I know how exhausting the Alpha or Luna's duties have always been. I walked as fast as I could but couldn't find her anywhere. I need my mate. I can't forget how she tastes and what her body looks like. I just want to touch her. I need to make time for us to get to know each other better. I think I am falling for her. It was then I saw Camille approaching me. "Aiden. There you are." She smiled coming closer to me and pulling me into a hug. "You d
40Kira's POVHe, talking to her and holding hands with her wasn't acceptable to me. I, accepting him as my mate was another thing. He was a bully before and I never liked him but now he is chasing after me. He could talk with her but holding hands with her was pushing it.I do not like that girl one bit. My wolf repels her and I know she is going to cause nothing but trouble for us. I remembered the way she moved closer to him while I watched them. What impression was she trying to pass on me? Was she trying to rub it on my face that she was his best friend? But I am his mate. He needs to respect that. Why am I even bothered that they are friends or not? I shouldn't give a fuck at all. I should just mind my business and pretend as if I did not see them. "Let go of me." I gazed at him. "She is just my friend." He said looking at me. "I don't care who she is to you. Just let go of me and let's forget whatever happened between us." I told him but he won't even listen to me. He only
41Kira's POVI pulled a long smile as he sat down on the chair. Just how I like it. He deserves to sit down on the chair over and over again. I checked my white-painted fingernails as I watched and observed each of their moves. Their countenances, their actions. I noticed all. Everywhere was silent. Elder Blake understood the message, he didn't talk either and I loved it. Marcus kept looking and the fear in his eyes was obvious. He knew I could order his death sentence if I wanted to because he deserved it. I leaned forward and rested my elbows on the table and placed my chin on my palms. "We all know that Beta Marcus ruled for over four years after my father, the past Alpha died," I said and looked into their faces. The more I talked, the more tension and pressure occupied the room. The moon goddess had given me that authority from heaven. The heavens had blessed me and given life a second chance. A second chance to rule and avenge my past death and my parents' death. Whoever ki
42Ariel's POV"What?" "Three hundred million?" "How is that even true?" Elder Collins, Blake, Miller, and Marshall couldn't believe their ears. The remaining elders were mute and I was sure they knew what I was talking about. It was their handiwork. Marcus was mute and he was aware he was in for it. Three hundred million? Yes, that's true. When I got the statement of account from the bank manager, he made me understand that Marcus would come at the end of every month to request a huge amount of money and if they refused, he would fire them from their work. I felt pity for the innocent lives he had ruined when he was on the throne. The lives he had taken and the lives he had destroyed. Jaguar frowned his face and I knew no matter what he won't agree to it. I won't give him any chance to talk at all. "You are asking how it is true?" I turned to Collins. "Where were you four when he was doing all this? Are you saying he did them behind your back? Or should I say the golds he h
43Today is Friday and this would be the last day of this week that I would be setting my eyes on Aiden. I don't care if he is dating Camille. We aren't friends. What happened between us that night occurred because I was carried away. It was because I allowed my emotions to control me. I didn't mean to give in to him just like that. I couldn't say no to it but now I am ready to say no every time and every day. It won't repeat itself ever again and he is not touching me again. I will make sure of that. I only see him as nothing but a distraction. Glancing at the clock, it was half past six in the morning. It's a new day and I don't want any joy-killer to ruin my day. To kill my joy and the reason was that I was able to rule like a true leader of the pack. Marcus deserved what I did to him. Stripping him off his title as the Beta wasn't enough for me. I learned that he had been depriving the orphanage home of their share because it was registered under the pack's name. Those poor ki

She cries bitterly. She began to imagine Chad has moved on with his life. She began to pray for him to remember her.She knows if he did not come she would have to pay for all they both did.

He understood that she is not ready to let him go yet so he advised she goes for the meeting first and they will both go to his house because Ruby would be expecting them.If not for Ruby, Aiden would have preferred to stay in the chambers with Kira. This is the first time he is sleeping there and he really wants to get very familiar with it because it will soon be another home of his.She sent a messenger to the elders that she would be needing them at the throne room in two hours. She purposely gave them the time as she did not want them to rush themselves.She and Aiden went to the bathroom and bathed together. He scrubbed her and they quickly go

She believed in her heart that Sophia was the one who masterminded the whole of their plot.She looked at Aiden beside her and smilled. She thanked the moon Goddess for giving her such a good man. She said to herself that him being an Alpha is an advantage to her. She is sure he had more experience than her. She knows very well now that she has someone they can both carry the weight of the pack together. She only pities him that the stress will be too much on him.That thought brought her to the reality that she has never seen him run around in trying to solve a problem. She wonders how he governs his own pack considering that his pack is one of the most affluent pack.She decided to ask him and discuss it with him. Meanwhile Aiden also had it in mind that it was time to help Kira in governing her pack. Though he ha
CHAPTER 142KIRA'S POVI had to force myself to calm down while I was with Aiden at the police station. I wondered if I knew him anymore. I began to wonder why he was hiding such a secret from me. So I have been in a relationship with an Alpha all this while and I never knew. I was so angry and dissapointed at Aiden's attitude. I managed to keep calm so that the commissioner of police would not know I didn't know what happening. We left the commissioner's office and left. I did not even want to enter his car but there was no way I would do that and not create awareness.I managed to sit calm in the car and kept quiet. He knew I was angry so all he continued to say was that he was sorry. I did not say a word. He said he was going to explain everything to me when we get home and I still did not say a word.Immediately we got home I called Damien to pack all my things and put them in my own car. He obeyed but he was after knowing what happened. I told him there was no problem. Ruby hear
CHAPTER 141SOPHIA'S POVThe day was surposed to start as a beautiful day but it turned out to be the worst day in my life. I was not even allowed to enjoy my sleep and wake up myself before the day has its effect on me. The day was eager to start it's problems so it woke me up to face it.The news that Aiden is back hale and healthy shocked me so much. I could not believe it. The fact that Kira could play that much surprised me. I really don't understand who Kira is anymore. How could she act so we'll because I was very sure that she knows h was alive all the while.To me I thought I was playing on her intelligence but unfortunately she was the one playing on my own intelligent. She outsmarted me. How on earth. No one was able to do that to me since I grew up. Should I say that she had learnt so much from us.Them I remembered the saying that it is the wise ones that will teach the fools how to become wise. She must have learnt from her experiences but even if it were to be so, how c
CHAPTER 140CHAD'S POVI can't just figure out what was happening. The whole situation is becoming a very serious one. How on earth would Aiden escape such well planned death.At this point, I really feel like leaving the whole thing but how would I be able to do that when I have put my all. I remembered the day I and Sophia started the plan. We never knew it would take us this long before we would be able to achieve our aim.How did things really got to this stage? Kira was supposed to be a gullible person. How come she has changed? When did things really go wrong. How come I did not notice? What did I really miss?I could not find answers to all this questions I was asking myself because the whole situation seems to be a puzzle.
