“Gosh, that was exciting!” Olive squealed loudly as they settled down in the section. Wayne smirked at her and arranged her hair that a few people might have managed to touch.“Seems they like you,” he replied in his deep voice.“Well, yes. Now let's hope it continues with that plan of yours,” she stated and hit him playfully against the chest. He held her waist and looked down into her green eyes.“It's better for them to hear it from us than from them. Trust me, babe,” he cooed lovingly.“Yeah, yeah. I trust you all right,” she rolled her eyes and smiled.“So what are you getting me?” she asked. He looked around the large room and twitched his lips as if he was surveying the things and thinking.He looked at the female security guard standing with two male guards.“Stay with her and guard her while she shops. I'll be right back,” he ordered. Olive's face turned into a frown.“What? Where are you going?” she asked with worry.“Chill baby. I'll be right back,” he stated and kissed her
As they were seated in the private plane, Olive decided to check her phone and kill boredom because Wayne was apparently on a full blown business call with people. She had heard him calling Jake and now he was giving orders to someone else. She was also feeling really nervous as they got closer to Aspen City. Her mating ritual was in two days, and yet there was a looming threat of she being overthrown even before she climbs the throne.With all these on her mind, she decided to just go through social media platforms and watch videos. As soon as she connected to the plane's WiFi, messages from News apps began to flood in. Each notification had pictures of she and her mate. It was so overwhelming that she didn't know when she switched off the phone, laid down, covered herself and slept off. When Wayne was done, he looked at her and wondered why she had fallen asleep. They would be landing in ten minutes so he gently tapped her awake.“Babe,” he called her and she sat up and rubbed her e
Olive returned to the quarters while holding the file firmly. She stepped into their bedroom and dropped the file on the bed. This was going to be an amazing surprise for Wayne to see and she bet that he would be grateful for it.Jericho had been surprised when she met up with him before they boarded the helicopter and collected his number in her phone. After she told him she needed information to use against Gia, he had told her it was a hard job because the General, Gia's father had cleaned her criminal records.However, he knew no one could be a hundred percent cleaned. There could be traces of it somewhere. So, he went to Detective Kelly Reynolds who he had been keeping tabs on.She loved chrysanthemums, taking cappuccino with a dinosaur-shaped cream on top every morning, loved to eat chips while watching movies instead of popcorn and preferred barbecued chicken to fried chicken. So, he just flirted and promised to take her out for some homemade barbecue chicken right after kissin
They unlocked from the hug and Aunt Debbie held Olive's cheeks really hard.“Such a pretty woman,” she said and shook the place she was holding. It was an awkward sight considering the fact that Olive was a full grown woman, yet she was being treated like a six year old with chubby cheeks.When Aunt Debbie released her, her cheek had turned red and sore. Dolly and Vanessa were low-key laughing at her and even Wayne could not hide his grin. Immediately Aunt Debbie walked ahead of her, she held her cheek and rubbed it.“Oww,” she mouthed. Wayne walked to her and held her hand.“That was absolutely cute,” he sniggered at her and she pinched his own cheek too.“Wayne,” his uncle called on him. They turned around immediately and he smiled at them.“Pretty mate you got there,” he stated.“Oh, I'm sorry. Olive, this is my uncle. Uncle, meet Olive,” Wayne introduced and Olive smiled at him again.“It is nice to meet you, sir,” she said.“It is nice to meet you too. Now let's all go have a dri
Their early dinner was over quickly and Olive was dressed in a red suit and pants with golden buttons decorating the chest to the waist middle region of the suit. She straightened her hair with a flat iron and let it fall neatly on her shoulders.She had dark minimal makeup on and adorned her feet with white heels. She also carried a white designer purse which she hug over her shoulder. The bag was a furry white small purse and the chain was golden. It matched with the necklace adorning her neck and the golden buttons on her red suit.“It's a meeting with the Parliament, not dinner with the president,” Wayne teased and she smirked at him.“Well, I might as well give a good first impression. Something tells me that Gia has gone ahead to let them know that I have no swagger and class. That I look like a begger. So, I'm just going to change that perspective of them today,” she replied with a shrug and Wayne grinned.“Proud of you, babe. And you look absolutely hot. You're smoking, baby,”
Wayne walked Olive to the head of the table and drew the seat for her to sit down.“Thank you,” she said to him with a smile. He smiled back and some people were shocked. Alpha Wayne Knight could smile like that...ever?Olive sat down gracefully with Wayne, and she flipped fallen hair from her face. She tucked one side of her hair behind her ear while she left the other side falling over her ear and slightly over her face giving her an ethereal look.Her eyes glanced sideways at a man sitting down close to the general and coincidentally, he was staring at her with parted lips. She looked him up and down slowly and seductively with her large eyes. He got a heat wave and goosebumps immediately,making him gulp nervously before looking away.Wayne cleared his throat and pulled on her arm. He didn't like what she just did. She chuckled quietly and looked down.“Good evening, everyone,” Wayne greeted with his Alpha voice. Olive loved the sound of it.“You are late, Wayne,” Gia scolded with
When the photos and videos of Alpha Wayne Knight and his mate taken from that mall in Lumpusberg began to circulate, Gia was more than angry. She hated the positive reactions and comments gotten and had to do something about it immediately. She paid an agency responsible for creating reviews (mostly fake reviews) to disrupt the peace of social media by posting nasty lies about Olive.The agency was illegal but she still went ahead to pay them because of her desperation. However, to her utter dismay, as soon as negative comments were being uploaded, they were getting deleted. She lashed it out on the agency but unfortunately, they did not have control over what was happening.She angrily asked for a refund but they totally shut her out, and even threatened to expose her with the fact that she was trying to tarnish the image of the future Luna.Gia didn't have their time that day because Wayne and Olive had arrived in Aspen City and he had called for another meeting. She therefore put i
General Kalif was a warrior and he knew how warriors were made. His daughter had played him again and made him do something downgrading. This time she used his weakness.He hated that cult because of how they ruined his family. Because of them, his wife left and his life tore apart. He loved her. But she had long forgotten about him and his daughter.“Oh, General, I think you should be the first to go through this file. Just five minutes and then you can hand it over to your 'daughter' to check it out too,” Olive stated and laid emphasis on the 'daughter'. General Kalif grunted and received the file from her. He opened it and flipped through the pages. He gulped painfully and exhaled.“How did you manage to get this?” he asked while looking at the Alpha and his female.“That is not for you to know, General. Hand it over to your beloved daughter and let us make the next decision. Whether or not this should get into my pack,” Wayne spoke up sternly. His face was in a frown and his jaw w
“I half expected you'd not give me back my dagger,” King Xandros joked as soon as he stepped out of the forest, the way he had done two days before. Only Wayne and Olive were standing there to meet him. The others had mostly returned to Balendin Pack earlier. “I just finished one war with a vampire, I'm not quite ready to start another,” Alpha Knight joked in the same light.The vampire king laughed. It was so soft and innocent a stranger could fall for it. If he didn't see the fangs that is.“Wise of you. Very wise. Well, thank you for bringing it back.”He lifted his hand and the dagger lying on the soil rose to meet it. King Xandros looked it over, examining every crystal on it and the way the moon's glow bounced off the sharp blade.“It's not a fake. It's the very same knife,” Olive declared. King Xandros smirked.“If it wasn't the same knife, I'd have known the moment I stepped foot on the ground. I'm just... wondering how it felt like to have plunged into Prince Valerik's hea
Olive woke up abruptly after a nightmare. She saw The Baron touching her again and her Firewolf hadn't damned the bloody dampeners this time. She exhaled and rubbed her neck, right over her physically hidden mark. She looked around her and realized she was in a very cosy tent. The walls were icy. Literally icey and as she looked around with compression, she realized her mate had iced the entire tent.Why?“Burning hot you were. So hot you could have barbecued us all from fifty metres away.”Olive looked up to see Mufasa threading carefully towards her on the ice ground. She smiled brightly but couldn't bring herself to hug him. She had no strength.“Beautiful to see you back with us, my dear. Believe me, life without you is not worth living. Especially as your mate took it upon himself to personally see to our premature deaths.”Olive laughed at this. “Here. Drink this all up. It's the Ethe Orbs but for a different purpose for you. You need strength.”Olive gulped it all down but ma
The Baron smirked and Olive would have given anything in the world to just smack it off his face. “That one is very dear to me. He came in two days ago, two days after you came. You both are very dear,” he drawled. “Let him go. Don't you dare hurt him. Or any one of them!”“Sssh now. I said I wouldn't keep them if you complied. I'll free them if you strip.”“Never.”He shrugged.“Well then. I'm very sure this suit doesn't stop them from getting a brain rush. They can stay upside down for as long as it takes for them to choke on their own blood.”Olive exhaled and shut her eyes. She tried to summon something, anyone, anything. But she was blank on the inside. She looked at the manacles around her ankle and gritted her teeth. She knew what they were. Special Vrek Cult punishing tools. “I see you recognize the dampeners. Good. You will remain helpless for as long as it would take to get you to cooperate.”With this, The Baron flicked his hand and darkness clothed the cave again. His c
The safety edge was drawn up again for the third time in two weeks of nonstop fighting. This time, however, the Unbidden Army seemed to be dwindling in their numbers. Hopefully, they would soon run out of all unbidden warriors and The Baron would show himself for the final battle.Alpha Knight's hair was chin length now and he had it tied to the back of his head in a small ponytail. The effect of using his powers was shown in the growth rate of his hair.He was now standing in one of the tents, receiving reports of the war and how the people enclosed in their safety facilities were faring. A huge frown was on his face as he listened to a new report.Some of his soldiers were missing and they had last been sighted while fighting.“It's extremely strange. Even their mind links have been silenced. Nothing from them, as if they are dead,” one of the commanders revealed.Alpha Knight shut his eyes and traced them. He felt their auras and followed the trail. It kept going and going and goin
The suits were ready in two days. They were this full-body, extremely fitting like-a-second-skin, midnight blue, superhero-like suits. They clung to the bodies of the soldiers like wet polyester and were as tough as metal when struck from the outside. However, they weren't heavy neither did the soldiers feel like they were wearing the toughest and strongest uniform on earth. Impenetrable. After training with the new uniforms and suits for a whole day, Alpha Knight called the next day a day of partial rest then the following day they would move out to war. A pathway had been created from their park to the hideout location of The Baron by the joint work of Ami, Lutz and more Alchemists. All they had to do was march through the massive pathway only the Alpha family could control and they would wage war on the side out of the blue. The partial rest day had already begun, soldiers were milling around fully dressed, weapons strapped in and ready for war. But they were laughing and jesting
The hustle and bustle in the pack was evident even to a napping baby. The entire pack had more tension than the electrical tension wires around the pack. Pack members were growing nervous and fearful, with all the rumours of war and vampires flying around. Some were trying to leave the pack but Alpha Knight ordered that no one left. At first, it seemed like a tyrant command. But it soon became clear to them that if they had left the pack and were attacked, what would they do? None of the packs had the security that Balendin Pack had, and surely they wouldn't even accept them in. The human world was out of the question for those who had never left their realm. If they fled Balendin Pack at the moment, they would just be rogues—not accepted in any pack and not able to return to their own pack. There was also that fear surrounding the rumours of disappearing rogues. It could be anything. Alpha Knight had summoned his generals and commanders, ordering them to get troops ready to be depl
“Gia's head!” Olive gasped, a chill running down her spine at the revelation.Wayne nodded, his jaw locked tight.“That's what it looks like,” he affirmed. “What's the order, Alpha,?” Jake inquired, his face just as rigid as his Alpha's. “Send orders to get her detained at the border. She shouldn't step foot on our land. Send word to General Kalif to meet me at the board room in five minutes.”Jake nodded and bounded off immediately. Olive crossed her arms.“What are you thinking?” she asked. His thoughts were quite jumbled up she couldn't understand a thing.“Wondering why he went this extra length just to send a message,” he answered and began to walk. They followed after him. “Wayne, what if it's a trap?” Shem asked.“That is also crossing my mind,” his brother answered.Olive exhaled as they got into the elevator. Her heart was racing. If that was truly Gia's head, then The Baron had just used her and now disposed her off. Typical villain behaviour. She never liked Gia but she
The camp was empty safe for a massive building that was like a stone tower. There was a huge field surrounding it, cleared clean of trees, shrubs and plants. Calor could smell it.“Damn, it that's foul!” Olive sneered and gagged. “The Unbidden Army. They smell dead,” Astra explained. “But where are they?” Wayne asked, looking at the camp through Astra's vision too.“Underground, in that building. Laying low,” she replied. A few men with thick leather hoods were stationed outside, and there was an occasional movement of other people to and from the tower. A few tents were pitched on the field and they contained a few people.“How can we attack and besiege this place? It doesn't look impossible but...I kinda feel like there's more to this place than any we see,” Olive noted.“You shouldn't even be seeing this place in the first place,” Calor communicated. “Why?”“Because it's warded. Heavily warded to be simply invisible. No one should see or access it. But we can. And by that, I me
The van parked in front of the castle and they alighted. The fresh air hit their faces and Olive took in a deep breath. She was home. Oh, she missed home so much. She couldn't wait to see the guys. Alpha Knight came around her and sneaked his arm around her waist.“How does it feel?” she asked, looking up into his face as he gazed at his magnificent castle. The sun was setting already and the glow illuminated the building.“Feels like peace,” he answered and looked down at her.“I thought you felt at peace wherever I was?” Wayne chuckled.“I feel at home wherever you are. But I feel at peace when you're home with me.”Olive rolled her eyes.“You're just good with words,” she muttered and he laughed. “Are we heading in or gazing at the castle like it's a new building?” Jake asked as he made his way towards the entrance. Olive chuckled and followed after Jake, with Wayne right beside her. Her Guard followed behind them and they entered the castle together. Guards nodded pleasantly at
