"Jason, you are back?" Hazel asked, she wasn't expecting Jason to be back, they were supposed to have a political meeting with an alpha from another pack, and she was sure it would take them a long time. "Yes, Stefan was getting bored with it, so he asked us to leave, but I am surprised that the alpha didn't bulge, he only nodded." "Princess Hazel!!!" Sky called pounding. "What is it?" Hazel yelled, he tried to catch his breath. Speak and stop wasting my time. "Shadow Moon Pack had been attacking and it was conquered by a new alpha." "What?" Jason yelled. "Yes, the information I gathered was true, every member of the royal family was slain by the new alpha." "Does it mean that Fiona is dead?" Hazel asked, Sky went mute. "Can't you talk?' "That I don't know my princess." He bows. "Bunch of inadequate fools," Hazel said and turned. "Princess, I will be going to inform Master Stefan." Hazel grabbed the neck of Jason. 'You wouldn't dare, did you know what it takes for me to perf
"How did your meeting go?' Hazel said to avoid embarrassment. "Oh that, this is it..." Hazel looked at him, as he kept narrating everything that the alpha said but what got Hazel confused was the part that the alpha was about to sell some of the pack members to other packs for slavery, no alpha will disclose that to anyone, even if he was going to involved in the slave trade. "He didn't tell me that," Stefan answered he didn't want her to ask him that. "Then how did you get the information?" Hazel finally asked. "I invade his thoughts, I can't possibly sit there and listen to all the lies in his head, thinking that he wants to form an alliance with our pack and his, you and I know that bloody fool loves power and money and he is not going bow to your dad the alpha, he is only trying to have a backup plan, should he fall into problems in the cause of this trade he is trying to form with humans then we could help him fight them off." Stefan is right, the alpha is a proud man and wil
I was waiting for death, seeing that everyone had left and that wicked sister didn't think twice before shutting the cage, one of the soldiers ran into the room where my cage was, he grabbed the sword and turned it open, he was to kill me when another strong voice came up. "Don't, just throw her in the dungeon." Yet another pain, at least, it's better than death, It's past a week that I was in that dungeon, I guess they forget all about me, but I heard that the new alpha is worse than Leonid, if the taxes were just a cowrie, it's now forty cowries.The omegas are working tirelessly, they are not a lot to rest, and those soldiers are whipping them for any single mistake that they make. And any sick omegas are either sold out or killed.I lay on the floor of the dungeon, those cockroaches and rats were the things, I dreaded most and they had been my friend for the past weeks without food and water, how I managed to survive is one thing I couldn't tell, this breath, refused to leave me,
"Yes, he wants to turn you into his mistress." "No, I don't want to, I would rather go back to that dungeon than warm the bed of another, I want only Stefan touching me.' "Stop already, you should feel pity for yourself, even if Stefan comes, do you think he will still want you or even remember you in this present state of yours? And let's say he will return, don't you think you need strength to survive all the ordeal that the new Lycan King will throw at you?" I look at myself, although I don't want to believe that Stefan will not like me in the state that I am. But Sara is right, no man will find me attractive with this look of mine and if I am to survive, I also need food to give me strength, at this point, I think I will listen to Sara "Fine, I will do as you said." She gasped, I could see how relieved she was when I agreed to have a good wash and food. She takes me to Stefan's quarters, walking into that room that I and Stefan had shared, his memory flashes into my head, the
"Stefan is no more." She said after hesitating. "That is not true, my Stefan is alive, he promised me, he is going to come back to me. I hit her with my hand, she just stood there like a log of wood. Take it back, I said take it back, my Stefan is alive, he is not dead, he can't be dead." I cried, I had never shared such tears, I got tired of hitting her, I got tired of life, I got tired of everything and especially this breath that the moon goddess refused to take from me. "Fiona, stop it, you will hurt yourself." She said, as I tried hitting my head on the wall, so my breath would stop. "Can you just say stop? I have nothing and no one, everyone is against me, the only person I have is Stefan, he is the only one who made me endure this pain, for so long, hoping he would come back if he is not coming back, then there is no need staying alive, I just want to die."She parted her lips to say something but not a word came out, I grabbed her hand. "Tell me, that my Stefan is alive.' "
"I am afraid, I will have to disobey this time." Stefan didn't like the idea that his mother's pack had been conquered by him, he didn't want his Pack members to be regarded as Omegas, no matter how well they are been treated they would remain Omega, a slave is always slaves, as long as your pack is conquered, slave to the pack that conquers your pack is what that Pack will remain."Why is it so?" The alpha asked with gritted teeth. "It's because they are my people, I will never throw them into slavery, I will protect them, I will never let what my late mother worked for go to trash, and the alpha will always remain in the royal family." 'How are you going to protect them? Even if you didn't conquer them, they will always be slaves." "My brother will protect them." "Protect them?" The alpha asked sarcastically, now Stefan is thrown in confusion. "Your brother was a beast, he didn't care about the pack members, he loved power and the well-being of the pack was not in any of his dict
"Hazel, what madness is this?" Her father the alpha throws her from him, and her back hits the wall. "Ouch!!!" She screamed ready to attack again, this time the alpha was fast enough to dodge her attack and pin her to the wall. "Have you suddenly gone mad?" "Yes Father, you know I love Stefan and I can't watch another woman be in his arms, he should be me, and only me. How can he see just me, when you are sending him back to that pack?' Her tears drop. "What are you scared of?" The alpha frees her, seeing her breakdown. "Fiona!!!""What?" "Yes, Fiona, she is the woman that he loves and can't love another." "I thought you said she was dead." "Yes, I said so, I have Rex go after her, end her miserable life, although her blood is on that sword, I doubt if she is dead.'"Even if she is not, he is not going to recognize her, have you forgotten that he has no memory that he even helped his father to fight against that alpha that kidnapped his sister?" The alpha paused and looked at h
"I am sorry, I didn't mean to... ""It's fine, just watch where you are going next time." He said as he tried to make me stand on my feet. I wanted to look at him, that voice, I think I have heard it somewhere but I can't tell who the voice belongs to. They grabbed me from him, I watched as he walked towards the royal courtroom, my eyes following him. That shoulder, it was like that broad shoulder that I watched that day, that day that I first met Stefan, and those hands of his, were the same as the hands that had prevented me from falling that day at the castle. "Why do I feel this strange, why am I comparing Stefan with this man who has saved me just now, why do I feel warm in his embrace? Maybe, I should go back to him, I need to see him again, but this man's hair is longer and his voice sounds different from my Stefan.""Hey, move it?" The guard yelled, grabbing me from my thoughts, I hurried clumsily, hitting the chest of another. "Rex!!!" That fear, of the last incident that hap
