AidenSome minutes after Sierra disappeared, I picked up approaching footsteps from the distance and the different scents of my pack members. They must have been worried about the wolf call by an unknown.“We should go,” I said to Arnold and stretched my hand to help him up.Instead of taking my hand, I heard him scoff as he stood up to me with anger pooling in his eyes. His red eyes faded as it was quickly replaced with blue ones.Judging from the heavy stampede in the woods, I could tell that half of the entire pack are here searching for answers, especially if they had checked for their Alphas but couldn’t find us.It’s improper for everyone to see us with no clothes on so I carefully filtered through the troubled minds of the pack members to find Ryker. It didn’t take much effort to find him since he’s our beta.I talked to him through the mind link to get us anything to put on while stopping the people from coming into the West forest.I bet they are all prepared for a fight sin
SIERRAI don't think I have luck with peace of mind.Anytime things start to go well, there's always one tiny streak of misfortune hanging around the edge of it.When Aiden decided to train me, I was confused but happy, especially with the hopeful words that he said to me.I'm tired of having to do things I don’t want all because of the mate bond.The scene where Aiden kissed me out of the blue replayed in my head like a song on repeat. And each time it happens, I feel so affected by memories of how soft his lips were, how good he moved them perfectly on mine.He was good but I shouldn’t have given his permission with my reaction. I was having fun training wildly with Aiden before Arnold showed up.The anger on his face threw me off the edge, it all started to go wrong with his showing up. The two brothers are confusing… no matter how hard I try, I just couldn’t get the scene and their hot conversations off my head.Now they’ve found out my secret, and I ended up leaving them with mo
5:00 in the morning.I had implored Ruby to let me stay the night at her place and she agreed.She woke me up when she was getting ready to resume the clinic and I decided to leave as well before daylight set in completely.I pulled the hood over my head properly as I jogged down the street hoping to sneak inside before the Alpha woke up.I sniffled the cold wind as it brushed against my face. I was almost at the Mansion when I saw some of the pack members and warriors sprinting to the training ground.I veered off in that direction at once, deciding to take another route.Covering my face this much by this time of the day might arose suspicion so I loosened the strings and pulled the hood off my face. The mistake I made was doing that while walking so fast and carelessly.Before I knew it, I bumped into someone who fell right back on the floor with a sharp cry.I staggered back immediately trying to render an apology and then two feminine figures stared up at me.Vickie and Jennifer!
UNKNOWN POVI was there before it started when it started, and how it’s going. I’ve always been there.It’s like I have great eyes that see it all when I’m no mystical being but a werewolf like my kind.I know the evil ones, the secret behind everyone’s story… their past but not their future.Because if I could see the future, I would have avoided mine like water seeping through a sieve.I was the late Luna’s maidservant. She was kind, beautiful, and accommodating. She was nice to everyone regardless of rank and everywhere was peaceful, well that was until I knew someone called Morpheus.The trickiest man to ever walk the surface of the earth, he’s dangerous and manipulative.Everyone liked and respected him.Cause why not? He was considered to be the best option to come to their aid in terms of war. He was always ready to go out there to fight and protect the pack and his brother, the late Alpha from harm's way.Considered the best option yet, his brother Maximus was chosen by their
At Morpheus’s OfficeJennifer stomped into Morpheus's office fuming with so much anger and Vickie, on the other hand, tried to calm her down.Jennifer’s clenched fist remained by her sides but her eyes searched the room for anything to vent her frustration at. Everything in the office looks expensive and important to Morpheus and she would not dare to get on his bad side even if she’s crazy on her own.Instead, she walked to his desk and swept away everything on the table, her eyes glaring in satisfaction as she watch things break and scatter.“Stop it already!” Vickie yelled at her only to be welcomed by Jennifer’s beastly stare.She pushed her away with so much force that sent her crashing onto the floor.Luckily, Morpheus arrived at the scene before she caused any more trouble.He didn’t need to talk for them to sense his presence, the aura around him says a lot more than his introduction. Morph’s face didn’t hold the slightest change of countenance, instead, he strolled to his Swi
It’s been two days since the conversation with Aiden and they’ve been avoiding each other since then. Sierra manages her routine for their mealtime and manages to avoid the twin Alphas by any means possible.Now focused on her morning training with Evie and going for a night run in the woods to train more.Ruby sacrificed her free time in the night to help with her training in secret.She spends most of her time with Evie and with Ruby at the clinic.Jennifer and Vickie have started attending meetings with the elders and the twin Alphas.And now, it has been officially announced to everyone at the meeting but he was countered with what he least expected.When Morpheus finished his speech about the promise made by the twin Alphas, the elders raised their disapproval for another reason. The first reason is the fact that they haven’t received any training on Luna's duties, how to contribute to the pack, and their ugly relationship with other she-wolves.“It’s not appropriate to choose ra
Vickie started with her finger under the straps of her sleeveless gown, her face down as she bites her bottom lip which shows her contradicted decision.Morpheus noticed the slight movement with his side eye and when he raised his head, he was surprised to see Vickie trying to strip herself naked.He narrowed his face as he walked out from behind the desk and sped up to Vickie with his wolf speed.He grabbed both of her shoulders tightly and slammed her back against the door.Vickie let out a sharp cry perplexed by the situation she’s got herself into.“Save the show for Arnold not for me” Morpheus said softly to her ears and the effect of it made her body shake.“Your heart might be tastier than what you’re offering me” Morpheus whispered and Vickie let out a shaky sigh.“Go!” He growled at her.With trembling lips and heart thumping wildly, Vickie grabbed the doorknob and made a run for it.With Vickie now gone, Morpheus returned to his seat.He was seated for a while unable to cont
Arnold left the scene without exchanging words with Sierra again, even though his face was hard to study and predict his next move.As Evie and Sierra continued doing the laundry, she wondered if he was going to cut her finger off for real.They worked together for hours until it was time for her to go home and prepare dinner.On their way back to their respective paths, Evie suggests that they visit Ruby but Sierra was running late.“It would only take a minute. You both have been too busy to see each other and talk, I mean you’re leaving for the border tomorrow and you’re not trying to see her before going? Why?” Evie probed.Sierra chuckled dryly and scratch the back of her head “I meet with her every night though” she muttered quietly under her breath.“Well, I guess despite spending years together in the human world and having each other is enough” Evie mumbled with a convincing head nod.When Evie noticed that Sierra didn’t contribute or say much to her questions, she decided to
THE CORONATION DAYIn the chilly ambiance of winter, the pack house has been properly decorated by not just the Omegas, but including the elderly women and young girls of the pack.There was excitement everywhere as people started heading to the coronation ground with their families.Each family held gifts for their new Luna with handwritten notes for her.Standing on the balcony of Elder Farrah’s home, her chest raced up against her chest In happiness as she scanned the number of people walking to the coronation ground. She’s happy to see the young pups, old and the young heading in the same direction with smiles on her face.And then, she saw Tyler leading the first batch of the warriors dressed in their costumes and matching in the same direction.She saw other batches being led by General Wayne and Commander Daryle.What piqued her interest was the strong aura emanating from Aiden in his royal Alpha outfit. She felt her cheeks burning and butterflies flapping off their wings in he
The Vampire King looms over Sierra’s figure as he suddenly grew taller than before. Sierra freeze when she noticed the obsessive gaze on her but she clasped her hands together nervously. She made sure to cover her wrist with the long sleeves of her robe so the Vampire wouldn’t notice the bracelet missing.“I can give you a tour of the mansion if you want, it’s where you’ll spend the rest of your lives in any way,” King Varl said with a snarl and licked the side of her face.Sierra trembled at the gross action out of the blue and she thought inwardly “This is getting worst” “Uh…well, I’ve seen enough today but I’ll like to see more tomorrow. We have all the time anyway” Sierra smiled.“If you don’t mind, I can keep her company as usual,” Ryker said to save his head.“Alright, enjoy. I have something to attend to in the meantime anyway” King Varl said.He kissed Sierra on the forehead and left with Elder Ante. Ryker hurriedly walked to Sierra and whispered to her “I thought you had ab
In the dark forest of the night walkers' territory, Sierra is seen sleeping peacefully on the large bed surrounded by slaves tending to her body. Some were rubbing sweet oil fragrance on her hands while some were massaging her feet and back.Sierra moaned at the sensation but she was deep asleep.In her sleep, she started dreaming of what happened to her in the night.She saw herself running after Crystal in the woods and then he suddenly transformed into a familiar-looking man, the vampire king who tried to kidnap her many months ago. She whimpered at the sight of the dangerous creature before her and hated how submissiveness her body was to him.She saw him slipping a bracelet into her wrist.The Vampire king was about to mark her when she gasped and fluttered her eyes open.Due to the direct impact of the sun on her face, she was forced to keep her eyes shut for a while but then she noticed some hands on her body and Sierra sprang up on the bed.She crawled back in fear as she st
What? I can’t kiss you!” Sierra shook her head in disapproval.“Sierra, this is the only thing I ask from you. What are you scared of? You would be betraying our friendship if you’re not fair with your decision” Arnold growled and knocked over another bottle from the table.Sierra sighed and scanned upstairs for traces of Aiden.She’s trapped between her love and friendship. Arnold got greedy at the last moment.“I really want my friend back in return please… and if this feels like a goodbye to you, then it is,” Sierra said and pulled him close before he could utter a countering opinion about her statement.Sierra kissed him lightly on the lips but Arnold grabbed her body tightly to his, kissing her hungrily and greedily.But then, Sierra noticed one thing… her wolf wasn’t responding! Bia wasn’t saying a thing and she wasn’t reacting to Arnold’s wolf. Even if her self-control was fighting against the Mate bond like usual, she always felt it anyway.Sierra pulled away from the kiss wit
The brothers exchanged confusing glances at each other and they were forced to think back on Sierra’s reply to their questions last night, perhaps she had decided to run away.“No way!” Aiden mumbled, he turned away from the door heading for the main entrance when Sierra pushed the door open. She came inside with her white puppy in hand.Crystal barked at them and that was when Sierra noticed the two brothers in front of her, panting heavily. The restlessness on their faces is visible.“Good morning is ever…. Is everything okay?” She asked with a questioning look.“Uh? Uh…“Yeah, sure. We just woke up and so”They both stuttered gibberish trying to find the perfect excuse but none was coming.“I guess you wanted to go for an early morning walk as well, I just went with Crystal” Sierra said to them.“Yes! That’s it” they replied strongly.Aiden and Arnold passed Sierra by and walked out of the house.They both smacked their lips in embarrassment when they were outside.Their eyes met a
Sierra felt at peace after visiting her parents' graves for the first time in years, she was happy to find out that they were buried and not burnt into ashes according to tradition.With a fulfilled face and peace in her heart, she was humming happily on her way back to her parent's house when she came across Shirley and Darius.“Hey guys, I’m sorry for coming back so late…” she said in an apologetic gesture.“It’s fine Siera, we are done restoring your parents' house for you thanks to the strong warriors,” Shirley said.“Darius nudge Shirley and gave her a weird signal which caused Shirley to cover her mouth in fear “Everything has been taken care of now, Lady Sie” Shirley rephrased her statement.Sierra squeezed her brows in confusion “What’s going on here?” She asked.“Well, everyone has been talking about it … I mean your upcoming coronation and we should give you your respect before the very day. You’ll be our Luna after all” Shirley explained.Sierra rolled her eyes with an exha
AT THE OFFICEAiden and Arnold arrived at the office and they saw Vickie cleaning the office with another omega.Aiden flashed Arnold a questioning look but he reacted with a shrug“I know nothing about it”“I guess the elders demoted her to the rank of an Omega” he added.Aiden glanced at her for a while before walking away.He called for Ryker to get him the letter sent by the elders and he came in with it.“Good Morning Alpha Arn” Ryker greeted.“Morning to you Ryker” Arnold replied.Aiden was busy removing the letter from the envelope and when the content appeared on his face, a muscle in his jaw twitched and his hand trembled with fright.Arnold already made his guess at the content of the letter based on his brother’s reaction. He had the same reaction when he heard it from Ruby.“Yeah, she has chosen a date… which means she’ll have to be marked by a mate on that day” Arnold explained.Aiden’s heartbeat can be heard from outside of their office door. He first requested a cup of
Sierra’s legs weakened at the wave of reality brushing up against her. Now she knows that the elders wouldn’t take it easy on her and she would have to face the fear she’s been running from.Ruby sighed and patted her back as she made her seat on the couch.“It’s not anyone’s fault Sierra, the pack has been existing with no Luna to help them strengthen the Alphas. You know how important it is for an Alpha to have his Luna.” Ruby explained persuasively.“What do you think I should do, Ruby?”“I think you need to talk to both of them, you don’t want two Alphas to mark you then you should let them know. Stop suffering yourself and confess to the one your heart wants “ Ruby advised her.Sierra opened the letter again and she saw the remaining text in small font at the lower right side of the letter; it says to input the date chosen and submit it back to the boardroom for approval.She tendered it to show Ruby who nodded her head slightly to motivate her.“These people want me gone as soon
The last case on the list for tonight is a serious one that got everyone on edge about how it will turn out.Elder Farrah who was standing at the front to address the crowd made a turn to hand over to the priestess. Her frail-looking body moved carefully to the seat and the old priestess stood up straight despite the old age reflecting on her. When Ruby saw the Priestess coming forward to handle the last part, she knew already that the elders are up to something. She turned her attention to Sierra with “sympathy” etched on her face.The pack priestess scanned the entire pack members with her heavenly blessed eyes and then stopped at the rogue's seats. She started “I will open this case with the crimes committed by the rogues over the years”Silence descended on the already tensed crowd as they listened attentively to the priestess.“Over the years, the border has been attacked and robbed of food and resources and sometimes our warriors were killed and our Omegas kidnapped by you peop
