QWEN“You traitor!”I had my gun placed to Lucio’s head, but a tall, handsome man standing behind me kicked off the gun and pushed me off Lucio’s side.“What happened here?” Lucio posed with raised eyebrows.“You set me up!” I sneered.Lucio scuffed.“Why would I?” he posed, looking around the warehouse as though he was startled with the corpses littered in the warehouse, and the bullet holes on the walls.I picked my guns on the floor where it fell after it was kicked off my hand by the tall man standing behind Lucio.“Who are these guys?” I posed, bending to slip my gun into my pant.“Frankly speaking, I have never set my eyes on these men you killed here.” Lucio said with a sort of confusion in his eyes.There were about six corpses of men that came fully armed, lying around in the warehouse. I had shot them and dug my bullets in vital parts of their body, such that they were not spare a chance to blink before their lives evaporated from them, and their body went cold.That was how
LAURAI was summoned to the Lycan king’s court the next day, after the hullabaloo and the Rollercoaster of the previous day.Clad in the choicest of my silk gowns, I strutted off to the court, escorted by two omegas and a royal guard whom I had assigned to my chambers, to help me keep watch on every movement around my chambers.The palace had grown a little unsafe after the disappearance of Ricky and the induction of Killian, so I had to take a couple of personal security measures, having suspected that there is an enemy lurking around in the palace.The guards who were in charge of the gates of the court held it open as soon as they saw me and my crew approaching.“Approaching the court from her royal chambers, the Luna of rainbow crest!”That was the orator’s voice. He has suddenly turned quite submissive to Killian who he was not fair to on the day Killian emerged to lay claim on the throne.All the officials sitting in the royal court stood to their feet as I emerged, except Kill
LAURA“Why did you kill those men?” Aden’s height, if compared to mine, was towering, but I stood before him with the effrontery and audacity of a brave mouse challenging a cat to a duel.“I was following orders.” He said with his head bowed before me.“You should have killed them. No one asked you to kill them.” I said with a stern voice.“I apologize for my carelessness, my lady.” He said, his face means like it was when he was brought in the cage.“Meet the omegas at the royal store, to give you the royal gamma regal.” I said, with my eyes on his bare chest.“Okay, my lady.” He bowed and left.I sat on a high stool in my chamber and exhaled.Never in my life have I seen life taken out of men in such brutal manner as Aden had done, but I blame the death of those men on the orator and Killian who supported the motion for fun’s sake. But while I sat, pondering in thoughts of remorse for the men who lost their lives to Aden’s punches, a mild knock graced the door to my chamber.“Come
LUCIOOne bad thing about me is this; I hate company.All the bad things I’ve done so far, were all in my interest, and each time I had an evil plan executed, the next thing in line would be to get rid of those who assisted me.Qwen, I must confess, is a good companion, and we seemed to have same goal, but I was sure she had motives that are quite different from mine.But would I fold my hands and let her motives prevail, while mine is yet to be achieved?No!I bet I started this game before her, and that simply means that each of my evil cravings would be satisfied before hers would be considered.To these weird thoughts of mine, I shook my head and my lips curled into a smile. It was time for evil to use evil to achieve an evil goal.I raised my right hand and watched my fingers dance in the dim hotel room where I had lodged recently. They were the fingers that had done so much evil that I can no longer keep count, but that’s what I was destined for, and I’m to do nothing else but
LUCIO“Then, we do the standing if you are truly willing to.” I said and winked at her.I need no one to tell me that the reason for her politeness and so-called value for me was just to win my heart, and have me trust her, but trust is the only treasure I can never give away.“Indeed.” She said and folded her hands the same way I did. Maybe she had signed up for the ridiculous game of mimicking me, maybe to annoy me and make me behave normal.“So, thanks for showing up today, but I guess you skipped some trust, because you thought I was the one who sent those ragtag things to attack you.”I knew it was not necessary to relate her mounting her boys around the warehouse with the incident of the previous time we met, but I had to purge some odd emotions.She grinned and freed her hands.“This warehouse had been my tactical site for a long time, so, meeting my boys outside when you come should not disturb your mind.” She said, pointing at the walls on which there were names marked X.I s
LAURA“Tell me now, what you were doing with the king in the store room, as was reported by one of your colleagues.”I wasn’t raised to be harsh on people, but life had given me enough lemon, and I had settled to make lemonades.First; I had done justice to the evil school where most of my teenage life was ruined. I had cast the proprietor and her staff into the darkest chambers of the dungeon, and I had freed the girls currently serving in the school, and ordered the immediate demolition of the school building.Now, I was bent on nabbing the omegas messing with Killian, and serving them a cup full if query, not because I thought it necessary, but because I needed evidences to stand a ground on my claims that Killian was a git.He had been flirting and sleeping around with everything on skirt, and I don’t blame him for being such a promiscuous asshole; what do you expect from the twin brother of a git?“We were…just talking, your majesty.”I bet these omegas thought I was the most stu
LAURAIt took Aden thirty minutes to return to my room, maybe because he does not want to let whoever that knocked at my door.Maybe the visitor is not Rhett who he had sent away the other time he visited. Now he had just returned from the door after either confronting or accepting the visitor.“My queen, a woman out there wants to see you.” He said.I narrowed my eyes.I was not expecting any female visitor, and, maybe whoever that visited might have a link with my newly acquired in the dungeon.“Does she have a name?”Nothing on earth would release the proprietor and all her staff, so, I prayed that the visitor was not at my chamber to bother me with pleas on the release on my newest prisoners.“She said her name is Qwen.”Qwen?That name was familiar, but I cannot recall whose name it was, because whoever that owns the name no longer reside in the palace.I wanted to ask him to dismiss whoever it was the visitor, but the name sounded too familiar for me to shoo its bearer out of m
QWEN“Aden, what’s your problem? You’ve been acting weird.”I tugged at his thick shoulders and he turned to me.We had argued for about thirty minutes at the entrance of the chamber before Laura asked him to let me in, and now he was acting as though he doesn’t know me.Maybe he thought I was a threat to his interest.But what’s his interest?I believe my interest is same with his.“The problem is that you should have stayed back and played your game your way. You shouldn’t come here.”Aden’s eyes were lit in anger. That was probably what he was made for.Anger!“Look, your master suggested…”“Does that mean you do it better than me? If you guys don’t trust me, you should have kept me out of this shit.”He wasn’t ready to listen to me, but that wasn’t enough reason for me to tie up my tongue and let him continue with his ugly words.“Look, nobody said you are not good at what you do, but you have a different assignment, and I have a different assignment.” I was careful to keep my wo
Laura watched all her enemies being put in their place, it was a long journey she had to fight and seated at the large balcony with a good view of the entire pack, she could not help but reminisce on how it all started. First she had to go through pains in the hands of Uncle Lucio after the brutal death of her parents which fate played an ill luck on her. Going to college was not an easy one but Laura thought that all this was finally going to be over when she found out that the Mighty Lycan king feared by everyone was her mate. But just when everything was about falling into place at the marking ceremony, he rejected her before everyone and left her there alone as he fled the pack, Laura felt her heart shattered into tiny pieces that moment, all hope was lost, she loved this man to the moon and back, she thought that this was the moon goddess way of compensating her for all the pain that she had to go through and yet it was just another series of pain. Some glared at her with mock
LAURA Once the doctor left my chamber, I summoned for Elliot who came at once. “My Luna, you sent for me?”“Yes Elliot, were you able to find Gwen?”“Yes we did just as she was trying to escape from the pack through an unknown dungeon, she is now in the cell but there is something else that I think you should know”He spoke and I immediately sat upright, my eyes filled with curiosity. “What happened, is the king alright?”“Yes Luna, he is fine, it is about your maid servant Rosette who is pregnant”“I asked that she remain locked up in her room but have access to everything that her baby might need which included foods and good medication, I am sorry Elliot but I can only release her when I am certain that she won't cause problem for us, did she do anything wrong?”“She was served her meal early this morning and with the cutlery, she committed suicide!”“What!! Why would she kill herself, was she that desperate for power?”“I am sorry Luna, but it is not your fault, you did everythin
LAURAI sat there with all the strains of my bones so weak while I watched Ricky exhaust the last energy in him, he had been tortured by Killian when he first arrived at the riverside and I knew that it was only a matter of time before he finally exhausted his energy. Killian seeing that the rogues were all down and Ricky was contending with the last opponent, immediately rushed over to my side. “Hello Laura, I guess this is where we finally say our goodbye, it was beautiful having you as my Luna and having to relish your body at all times, but this is where it all ends”His words came as a whisper as he tried not to be heard by Ricky, he stretch forth his hand to grab my neck but I bite his hand so hard with the last strain of energy I had in me. “Ahhh!!! You witch!! ” He slam me hard on the face as I fell down, blood dripping from my mouth due to how weak I was, but as he lift his hand to hit me again, Ricky arrives just in time and with one kick, Killian fell off the ground but
RICKY Slowly they came down the hills and was only a few miles away from where I stood with my claws lightly piercing at Killian. My eyes drifted down to her thighs and my Lycan was filled with rage that it was so difficult to control him. Laura's thighs were covered in bruises, it was no doubt that she had been tortured beyond the way anyone could endure. “Why did you had to torture her to this extent, was it necessary, your feud was with me, Laura had no involvement in it”“That is so low even from you, you kept having sex with her knowing that she was my wife, mine and not yours because she stopped being yours the moment you left her so she is involve in every rage that I feel, every pain that I feel is because of the both of you so I am going to keep torturing her until there is nothing left of her”“You were the reason why I had to leave the woman that I love and yet you went ahead to take her as your Luna just so you can spite me, that is how low you can stoop Killian, so for
RICKYAfter waiting for a while and listening to Killian taunting me, there still wasn't sign of Laura, she was the reason I came and I had to act as soon as possible. For Killian, he was Certain that those chains could hold me captive for as long as he wanted, but I was the Lycan and wouldn't remain under his captive. I shifted to my Lycan form and stride towards him, the fear filled his eyes and despite how strong he use to be, the fear could not let him react. The more I came forward, the more he was drifting backward, trying to get away, but my mighty arm clasped onto his neck, I held on him tightly as he gasp unable to breath properly. “You are not going to kill me, you do not have the balls” A disdainful smile filled his expression admit the pain he was feeling from my grip. “I see… Then let's give a try and see if I am going to murder you this time around or not!” My deep voice echoed through the woods like a ranging torrent, my griped on him became more fierce and the fear
KILLIANWe arrived at the river side and spent the night there in the car, but the next day, we were woken by the sound of movement around the woods, slowly I unfurl my eyes to the sight of Ricky walking over to the river side. Although he was still afar, but no doubt it was him. “Gwen! Ricky is here, go and scan around the environment” I called onto her and she immediately stepped out of the car and hurried into the woods. “Looks like he still got some regards for you after all, here I was thinking that he has bailed on you” I teased but as she drifted her eyes over to the woods, a deep frown spread across her face. “Now I am going to enjoy you watch how I end his life, he survived my attack the first time and the toxic, do you think that he is going to be able to survive this time around, I am sorry but the moon goddess won't be on his side this time around”“Killian please, you have me, just go ahead and murder me or do whatever you want, torture me as long as you want, I am rea
LAURA Gwen and Melo was such close friends when Melo was alive, they dreamt so much of the day Melo will becomes the Luna, but I came into the picture and took that dream away her. “Although I know it doesn't count or matter to you right now, but I just thought that I should say it, I am sorry Gwen that my feelings for Ricky had to interfere with everything you girls had planned out for life, but he was my mate, there was so much bound between us and there was nothing that I could do, even if I were to start again, I would fall in love with Ricky again and again and never regret a moment of if”“Doesn't it hurt you that he killed your parents, they were innocent and yet he murdered them in cold blood”“At first I was angry, but after thinking about it for a while, I realize that although he might be the all powerful Lycan king that was feared by everyone within Zion pack, but he was still permitted to make mistakes, he isn't perfect but his love for me is something that I can't den
RICKY I could barely close my eyes for the rest of the night, my eyes filled with worry while I waited for the guards to come back hoping for some positive news, but there was nothing from him the entire night and everywhere felt cold and shallow without Laura by my side. At dawn, I was woken by the servants knocking on the door, they stepped in once I opened the door for them, a new collection of outfit set out for me on the bed. “My king, please pick an outfit of your choice from all of this!”“Are the guards that left the palace yesterday back?” I inquired with my gaze fixed at the window, I had no intention whatsoever in whatever outfit that was set before me, all that mattered to me was Laura. “No Sire, there hasn't been a word from them” The servant girl replied with her head lowered as she did not dare look up while I was speaking. “Leave the clothes on the bed, you all can leave now” Just as they scurried out of the room, another knock came through as Eliot rushed in. “H
RICKYAfter the argument that I had with Laura, I waited for a while but there was no sign of her so I thought that it was only right to give her some space. Until it was time for dinner and I was summoned by the servants that dinner was ready, I scurried to the dining table hop to sort this out with Laura, but she was there. “Where is the Luna?” I asked the servants that stood there with my eyes scanning around. “She is not here my King! ”“What do you imply by she is not here, have you informed her that dinner has been served?”“We tried, but she is not in her room, we haven't seen since earlier today when she left the palace”“What!! ” I felt every strain my hair stand, my heart skipped with fear that this was more than just Laura finding space away from me. “She hasn't returned since she left earlier today and why wasn't I informed of it?”“I am sorry My King, we thought that you were aware when she left and considering that she is the Luna, we can't restrict her movement”“Sen
