Sierra sneezed as she walked to a corner and the heavy hair material on her pushed her forward with its weight; Sierra nearly fell face flat on the floor as she stumbled forward.“Oh God” she exclaimed as she hold back the hair decorations on her head. She straightened herself and glanced around at everyone, including the guard who seems to be watching her like a hawk.Sierra smiled nervously with her lips snapped shut then carefully, she ran back into the forest. The moment she was out of sight, she increased her speed and began searching for the bird. And of course, she’s running with her hand tightly fixed around the heavy weight on her hair.She’s been searching for a while now but she hasn’t seen anything like Ruby’s bird and at one point, she thought about activating her wolf form as it would help her greatly but on second thought it would be a bad idea. Running through their territories in her wolf form could pose a threat, especially since she’s a silver wolf. Also, she would
The girl smiled at Sierra and waved her hand in dismissal “Vista can’t leave this place” she said.“Vista? What’s Vista?” Sierra asked with a questioning look.“Name… sister” the little girl informed Sierra that Vista is her sister’s name.“Oh I get it now, you have a name but you’re not allowed to name your little sister?” She asked and they replied with a nod.“If you know the way out of here, why didn’t you… no why can’t you leave?” Vista looked down as color drained out of her face “We have nowhere to go and the king is going to hunt us down” she explained.Sierra nodded her head in realization and since she’s not in a position to take anyone back to the pack, her heart hurts so much for them.“I don’t want to escape yet but can you help me out with something else?” Sierra asked with urgency in her voice.Vista looked at her with hesitation and she exchanged glances with her little sister before she talked. ”Actually, I came looking for you for something else, “ she said.“Uh?” S
In the dead of the night, Ruby made sure to dismiss the nurses for the night since the young pups would be discharged tomorrow for good. Then she went to her office and changed into an all-black, she opened the window and slipped out of the clinic smoothly.Meanwhile, Ryker and Commander Daryle are trying so hard to complete their mission as well.Commander Daryle went to Morpheus’s office with a fake report that his men had seen rogues near the pack’s entrance.Commander Daryle didn’t enter his office, he lured him outside to talk to him.“I doubt if that’s possible but I will send men to attend to it,” He said.“The two Alphas are trying their best to catch the culprit that pulled such strings at the pups' camp, I’m surprised you’re not taking this seriously Sir Morpheus,” Commander Daryle said with a scheming smile.Morpheus’s jaw tightened as he balled his fist, he flashed the commander a frustrated smile and said “You should be talking to the general about this, not me”“Your off
Commander Daryle stayed back at the pack’s entrance till Morpheus and his men were out of sight then he followed after Ruby as well.The omegas followed Ruby to the clinic with joy in their hearts.As they plopped down on the bed, they let out an exhausted sigh. Shirley leaned on Evie while Darius rested his back on the wall as Ruby tends to him.They are looking so miserable and their eyes so shallow with trauma.“I’m glad you made it back,” Ruby said with a warm smile.Evie wiped her tears and sat upright for explanation “Sierra… they took her!” She said.Ruby’s eyes widened in horror and the wet pad she was holding fell off her hand. “She’s alive?” She asked.The omegas exchanged confusing glances with each other “What do you mean by that question, my lady? Shirley asked.“Tyler said she’s dead, said she attacked the pack with her rogues' friends, and that he killed her because of it. He came back with the mysterious dagger too…” Ruby explained.The omegas gasped in shock and Evie
Ruby anxiously caresses her hips as she went on her knees in front of the twin Alphas.In shock, the two of them stepped back and looked up at each other.“Why are you on your knees?” Aiden asked with a puzzled look.Ruby sighed with her shoulders slumping down in guilt. “You both were too young to understand everything that happened back then.Sierra is not Beta Hendrix’s child” she voiced out the truth and the twin Alphas chorused with shock “What?!”Arnold walked around with his hand raised in surprise and laughing like a crazy man “This is getting interesting. Do you expect me to trust anything that comes out from you? When you’re Morpheus’s mate! Mates can never betray each other!” Arnold yelled at her and Ruby clenched her fist.Aiden was about to caution him when Ruby exploded in anger, she yelled at Arnold straight up and stared directly into his face.“I’m not that monster’s mate! That’s the lie he told everyone. He took advantage of me and threatened me with my sick mother j
The twin Alphas could not call for an emergency meeting so as not to alarm anyone about their plan. Aiden reached out to a few of the elders in the early morning as fast as he could. He sent out letters to assemble after the morning training and that there was something he was going to show them.After the morning training, they all marched down to Morpheus’s office and the moment they arrived, Morpheus came out to them fully dressed in a training outfit.Arnold scoffed at the sight, he thought maybe he was cornered and decided to attack them straight on.Aiden stopped the movement of the warriors and the elders demanded further explanations.“Now that we are here, can we know the reason you reached out to us early in the morning?” One of the Epilsons questioned.“My greetings to you all,” Morpheus said with a slight bow.Aiden rolled his eyes and turned to face everyone for an explanation but Morpheus cut him off with a sudden clap “I’m so sorry for the Alpha’s dramatic behavior, I m
AT THE ROGUES' PACKIn the cold breeze of the night, the rogues are outside already chattering about the game tonight. Soon, the king came out to join them and Sierra was brought out of the tent to stay beside the king.Sierra watched with a straight face as burly-looking rogues strolled around the fight arena, each one of them showcasing their muscles and strength and the female rogues cheering to egg them on.Rouf, the leader of the rogues' army pranced around the scene with a proud look as he examines the men willing to participate in the game.One of the rogues made a naughty gesture to Sierra followed by a chuckle from him but Sierra rolled her eyes and gagged with her face filled with disgust.She did it intentionally and she got her comeback from the reaction of the rogue, he groaned with a clenched fist and swollen chest as he heaved with anger.He motioned a death sign to Sierra with the side of his lips raised in anger.The cold air of the night was interrupted by the frenzi
Sierra heaved a sigh of relief as she raised her lower body, hands slightly raised to balance her body from the perfect fall she made from the window.Carefully, her eyes roamed the dark room and she activated her wolf vision. She scoffed when she saw food and clothes scattered across the room “I knew it” she muttered.As she walked around the room Sierra found the door and her instinct tug her way through her chest as she moved closer to the door. She leaned against the door trying to pick up any sound from the hallway and she smiled when nothing came back to her hearing.Sierra gently pressed on the door knob and pulled the door open slipping off the hallway. She was surprised to see many rooms on the way but there was a particular room at the end of the hallway with small lights illuminating that part of the corridor.Bia growled from within, nudging her forward to proceed but Sierra is trying her best to turn back.Her eyes drifted off to another room widely opened and Sierra gave
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
