I recalled I never asked Belletta what she meant by that word, 'rogue'. Though I had a little idea about it, but needed to know more. I had to ask. "You just called me a rogue. Sorry, please, who's a rogue, and why did you call me that?" Confusion drenched me this time. Funnily enough, he lulled. I wondered what he was thinking. Maybe that question was quite strange or funny to him as it's believed that all must know about that in the pack. "Okay, just come with me, let's get out of here first." He said, holding my hand, but I pulled it back. I was worried, terribly worried, and I had no idea what was going on and who he was; but all I needed at that time was help to find my way out of that forest. I followed immediately. He took me into his hut, there I met some others, one male and two females. They looked quite friendly, but I didn't really need to trust them right now. "This is our secret, little space; a place we cal-" he paused as he pointed at the others, and conti
"A werewolf hybrid…? A different specie…? How? Why? How possible is that, and how come no one ever told me that? But I've been living a normal life since but werewolves don't… right..?" Questions Questions Questions My head exploded like a bomb was blasted in there. "Hey Irisha," I snapped as Lili called me. "You know what, just be calm, you'll get to know more about yourself soon; it's not something you're going to learn about in just a single day. Okay?" She said, as she came back to me again, and helped me out from the ground. "You're going to be fine. Okay?" She said, nodding her head. I was just there, imagining how my new life was going to be, my mind racing to different directions. A soft tap came on my skin, and I jerked back to normal. "Now it's time to get a new look for you; you need to freshen up, you're not looking nice like this." Lili suggested, as if she was looking dazzling herself. I admit, I was dirty. Walking a few metres away from me, to somet
It felt like the earth was going to open up and swallow us up. I flinched and wailed as I twisted to my side; just by the same right side I saw nothing initially. It was a scary looking and roughly dressed, quite aged woman. Her hair was black, with stripes of white patches on it. Its length was almost touching her calf. I looked at the two guys who brought me here, but from their facial expressions, I didn't need anyone to tell me that they were excited to see her. "Move over here!" The woman commanded, making an eerie sound. Her set of teeth was jam-packed as she opened her mouth to speak; the color was so horrible and spooky. I pondered on how the smell of that mouth would be like with those teeth and black tongue in there. Grouchy! Hesitantly, I took a step but froze afterwards, thinking of what to do next. That place was off, I swear! I glared around, then ran off to meet Beta Bachrill. OMG!!! "Please, what's this for? Who's she..? And why is she asking me to com
Having an identity gives one that sense of belonging about where he's from, and knowing about your identity is another. Two important combinations! I was supposed to be scared right now, but you know what, I wasn't. Surprised..? That's because I know I now have a family who accepts me as one of them, knowing they're all werewolves. "But this pack, isn't she supposed to have an Alpha?" I wondered, still in the arms of Beta Bachrill. "Calm down Irisha, you'll soon find that out too." Gamma Sly said, and I pulled myself out of Beta Bachrill's arms, and gave a swift look at him. "How did you do that? How did you know what I was saying?" I asked, looking so surprised. "Mindlink, Irisha. Mindlink." Beta Bachrill replied. "You too..? You can actually do that too?" "Of course, I can too. I actually heard you but didn't want to talk about that yet, so I kept mute." "Wow! Would also love to know how too, since I'm one of you." "Sure… just listen, and you'll hear. That's all
Gamma Sly was living close to the border of his pack, the boundary between the two packs, the Blessed Moon Pack where Alpha Rocksmire was living, and the Grey Moon Pack where Beta Bachrill was living. Hence the quick perception of my scent. So I thought though. Very far away from the happenings of my environment, I felt a soft edge like that of an apex, dangling on me, and tickling my thighs. I hopped from my lying spot, slapping away whatever it was. I never knew my gown was far raised above my knees. "Would you get the fuck up?" A masculine voice spoke, his words were accompanied by a penetrating whop with a horse whip. I clamored… holding my left thigh where it struck. "Now get inside!" He pulled a fairly young girl out from the corner I couldn't see, and hauled her into the cage as he quickly opened and closed it. Her face wasn't clear to me because she came in facing down, and the darkness of the open place didn't help either, and she ended up on the hard, steel floor on
I could imagine why they were brought there. "Why are you here?" Gracielia sobed, her tone depicting worry. I honestly spoke my mind of not knowing why, still, and she heaved a sigh of worry. I didn't expect less from her, as I asked her, her reason for being there too. "It's not a good thing to be a member of a small pack, and an Omega for that matter." Bellai said and hissed. Her demeaning tone showed how bitter she was. "Why did you say that?" I asked. "Because you can be rough handled at any time, and there'll be no one to fight nor stand for you." I sensed defiance in her voice. "Would you mind telling me more about being an Omega?" I questioned, and she didn't hesitate. "But I tell you, Irisha, from the look of things, I feel leaving here anytime soon isn't going to be that possible because the Grey Moon Pack is known for their deadlines all around every other packs, both far and near. We've now become full-time slaves to them!" Gracielia scowled and I shrugged, pi
The gulch- the dungeon became filled with so much tension that our eyes remained pooped as we paid so much attention, hoping for help as we waited for our turn. Lucky Bellai. I wished we could join her in her sleep too, so we wouldn't need to worry about the happenings in the cage. "I feel we're going to die now… They're here to kill us.." Gracielia whispered, as she hid herself behind me again at the sound of the steps, crying silently. Just his shadow was enough to tear the entire cage into shreds, and fill up the gulch. Jasminna came closer, following the tiny stairs at one end of the cage. I don't really know how he did that. Our feet wiggled, feeling like they were going to sunder from their joints. His eyes were dazzling green in colour, flickering like the translucent lamb a few steps from us. His sparkling gaze came fixed in a different direction from ours. Beside us. I quickly followed their direction and saw they were on Bellai. He cocked his head. "He has come to ta
Lost In The Cave And Sold To The Evil Alpha. Where I walked through into that dreaded cave is something I'm still yet to find out. Now all I see was rage to set me free from the shackles of my enemies. Never knew I had such powers until then. But that only happened once in a very long time; like I could literally count the number of times. Like… once in a month, twice, thrice.. or even more. Can't really say exactly. Coming out from the gulch into a new and totally divergent world, was one hell of a relief to my life in such a way. A world of absolute tranquility, yet tense. A world of freedom, yet I felt like a captive still hoping in the prison of pain and torture, lonely and dejected. A world so void of so many activities and fun I was enjoying back then when I was with my family; Mr and Mrs Smith, Mella and Jayla. And then, Alpha Rocksmire and his wife, Luna Emirallia, and Belletta their only daughter. Yet, everything seemed rosy and gloomy. It felt feeling great her
Carl acknowledged his greeting and looked at his butler grimacing while Elise went to hold his hand and rubbed his thumb. He looked lifeless with a bandage wrapped around his chest and tubes and cords attached to every area in his body.“ where you able to get out all the mercury poisoning? I mean when was this mercury thing discovered.” Elise asked as she stood near the doctor. “ it was when we were trying to remove the bullets actually and we started noticing the black drops, but the good thing was that it was easily and quickly discovered, so he did not really need a transfusion.” the doctor explained as he pointed to the chest area.Elise and Carl heaved a sigh of relief and was led away by the doctor, she thanked the doctor and then called Sasha to keep an eye on him. Carl posted two body guards to watch the room. He really wanted to know why his butler was attacked and he knew where to get his answers.Elise called the driver as soon as she got out of the hospital, assuring him
Ever since they got back from the honey moon, things had worsened between them. They had begun fighting again and she had a niggling feeling that he knew she was going out with someone else. She shrugged and knew that he did not really care either, she remembered how they fought on evening when she had asked for information needed to set up for the festival.“ You are my Luna, you are no longer the guardian. You have no right to such information.” he had said as he typed on his laptop. “Excuse me! I am a guardian by birth right. I still have the seal and I have every right to ensure that the festival goes well. I can never abandon Victor to all those duties.” she said as she paced and stared him down.“ I will never allow my mate to slave away under the guise of being a guardian. You are my mate, my Luna and nothing else. If your brother needs help, he can get an organizing committee.” Carl waved her off while she still stared at him with an incredulous look.“ You must be kidding me
Gerald looked at his boss as they checked each file of possible criminals that could have stolen the Luna stone. Carl had overhead the conversation between Selena and Elise and was shocked when he was told that it happened the day before.“ Why does it have to be kept as a secret from me? Why should Elise even be keeping secrets from me? Have I not been a good enough mate Gerry ?” Carl asked Gerald soberly. “ You know it actually takes time for a woman who was not initially in love with her husband to grow in love. That is what it is, just give her time.” Gerald replied and rubbed his arms.Meanwhile Melissa and Selena were talking as they walked to a secret location sent by Amanda to prevent suspicions and gossip. As they arrived at what looked like a fancy restaurant, they were surprised to see Elvis dining with Amanda.Amanda thanked him for the dinner and gave him a sound kiss, before rubbing his back and escorting him out of the restaurant. She commanded the both of them to sit d
Meanwhile Elise was watching Amanda on a screen from a recording that a secret camera insect like drone implanted on the walls of Amanda's palatial house, alongside Thomas as everything was going on and she warned both of them.Melissa and Selena pretended like they were not aware when they saw the black sedan of Amanda's guard trailing them through the tinted back window. The driver dropped them off at the gate and when they both entered, they hugged and went their separate ways.Selena went straight to the shower and washed off the monitoring spell that was made on her and continued her tasks. Elise was sitting in her own lounge turned office as she looked at the various case files before her. Bianca was able to pull off a detailed dossier on everyone except that Lucas Wainwright and she was at her wit’s end because of that.Anytime she thought about him, questions about who he was, his heritage and why he was so interested in her usually came up. She pondered about who the Shadow h
Elise was very angry and sent for Thomas, she needed answers and she needed it fast. She had dismissed the both of them in anger, telling them to pull out all the efforts and information they can muster about the stolen stone.The moon festival and feast was around the corner and without that stone, a whole lot of imbalance and disaster could happen. Why would such a thing happen. After she just laid down her happiness, freedom on the altar of mating. No one can mess with what was hers to protect.The documents with the lady was the dossier she had on Amanda and a folder that was marked confidential which Elise had never seen. It had information on all the secret dealings going inside the council. Some of which caught her fancy, even as she viewed them.It seemed like a bunch of photocopies but they seemed extremely useful and too detailed to be leaked, she was waiting for Thomas as she looked into more of the documents, she saw the seal of the council on many of the papers and realiz
“One more stop before we get going!” Carl announced as they left the restaurant, and entered into the car. A bouquet of what looked like a hundred roses laid on her seat and Elise squealed in delight, she had always dreamed of having roses given to her. In fact she usually bought herself a rose each birthday she had.She jumped into his arms and kissed him soundly, Carl carried her into the seat and asked her to close her eyes while he pulled out a black silk blindfold. Elise giggled and closed her eyes, she felt the soft material tickle her nose.The car zoomed off and soon they arrived at their location. Elise could sense that it was a lounge by the loud jazz music and the scent of different colognes that was easily differentiable. She followed his hands and as she entered into the place, he slipped the blindfold and she saw a beautiful banner with her picture and the inscription of a romantic poem and balloons and a group of jazz musicians playing.Elise felt really shy and nervous
“Bianca! Bianca! Pick this phone up now.” Elise almost yelled in frustration as she chewed on her sandwich filled with avocado, lettuce, chicken and tomato. Carl had gone out to attend to business, leaving her and the maid in charge,……….. in the huge house.Elise had taken a shower changed into a purple kimono and silk and fur sandals. Then the maid fixed her a plate of sandwiches and coconut milk infused with cinnamon. She decided to call Bianca and send the text to Bianca. But she had not picked up her phone.“Hello! Chica what is up baby girl? You have not been dropping juicy details on the group. In fact you have been hoarding sweet information from us.” Bianca accused her as she called.“Sorry! I have been to busy to even come on the group. Besides the last time I checked you were getting it from Vince, that hot shot at your work place. That aside! There is fire on the mountain! You have to help your girlfriend out.” Elise begged as she dropped the sandwich in her hand and sat up
The sun was out shining brightly and the beach area seemed a little crowded, a mother was seated under a purple umbrella. She and her daughter who looked like a year old had the same copper brown hair and gray eyes. They also wore matching flowery one piece bikinis. Elise looked at them lovingly and Carl hugged her. There was a group of teenagers playing with a ball that rolled over to their side. Carl picked the black and white ball and threw it back. They all yelled their thanks and continued their game. They walked down to a row of some old shops made from browned tin roof and palm leaves, there was a row of coconut trees behind them, that gave shade to the sellers.Carl pulled Elise into one of the shops, where an old man dressed in a blue shirt and jean shorts that matched his eyes, sold jewellery. They both looked at his little collection and Carl bought her a silver and ruby pendant with the inscription of the infinity sign.Elise thanked him, but her mind was not really with
She felt the mist rise up as she looked around still searching for Lucas and she walked on a bit before she stumbled. Carl looked for her in the mist and he felt very miserable as he did so. “Where on earth was Elise?” his wolf worsened the whole thing when it began making small pained whines. He knew if anything went wrong with Elise he would have himself to blame.He suddenly shifted to his wolf and howled loudly, because he felt that she was in danger or something evil was happening to her. It was like someone was struggling with her and he gave a second howl and he sighted her in the clearing mist. He fly like he bumped into someone even as he rushed to her, but he ignored the feeling, all that mattered was that Elise was safe.He shifted back to his human form and ran to hug her. He picked her up and carried her in is arms and sped back to the house. Elise felt the air fill with tension as she tried to wrap her mind around what had just happened, who was Lucas? Why on earth was h
