My wolf suddenly came alive and its ferocious groans resounded all through the chambers. I watched him as he stuttered. "I-I um, have not mated with another, my dear. You know as much as I do that I cannot be united with another wolf in mating. You are my mate, Katara,"He said."Who then was she and what had kept you away from me all night until the very time you stepped into this chamber?“I asked him. I was barely able to keep my wolf inside.Of course he would not mate with another but then, who had he been a good company to?I knew my eyes glittered threateningly like it did always when I was very angry but Kai remained calm. His wolf totally not aroused by the impending danger that mine posed."I had been with the commander of the army, the past night,"He said and made no obvious attempt to explain any further.Of course the ruthless Alpha Kai never owed anyone an explanation for his deeds. He did the things that he felt were best and no one ever questioned him.Coming to the
It was one of those days when the ladies at the study, chattered endlessly and made jokes. They gossiped about the men that they admired greatly with blushes on their faces. Suddenly, a man came in and motioned for me to come. The ladies all looked at each other, and then back at me in awed faces. "That is you he wants, honey," The oldest lady said, beaming at me. "What do you want, gentleman?“ I asked him, looking suspiciously at him. "Santina has asked me to fetch you. Alpha Kai is with her and they await you," He said. He rendered his lines with precision. Like he had spent his entire life learning the act of good speech and effective delivery of messages. I stood up and set my embroidery aside before following him out the door. I wondered aimlessly what it could be that must have caused Alpha Kai and Santina to await me at a certain point. The messenger walked briskly in front of me, stopping occasionally to see that I was behind him. "I am sorry if the distance is a bi
"Why are you sullen, my Lord?" Abramo asked as I sat staring ahead. "I am not sullen, Abramo. I am totally fine. I do not know where the pack that had attacked last night came from. If they where from an Eastern tribe or from the tribe along the water banks, I do not know. Why they had attacked, I do not know," I explained to Abramo. "But you know as well as I do that this tribe is rich in gold. Why else would they be attacked if not so that their treasures can be carted away?" Abramo asked. I shook my head. "Santina has died in the war even if they had not succeeded," I lamented. "It is not in your nature to lament, Dark Alpha Kai. Perhaps, you should go back and reclaim Valmore before an new Alpha Is installed," Abramo advised. "I have no men with which I can fight and conquer Valmore, Abramo. What shall I do?” "You have the blessing of the Moon Goddess. Go back to Valmore and you shall conquer. They may not even want war with you anymore. I came to tell you that It is ti
When it was late, Alpha Kai came in and said to me."Soon, we will head to Valmore.""But I have heard that there is an impending attack. Shall we flee from one war and go to another?" I asked."There will be no attack," He said and strode away from where I was sitting.I had no say. Nothing I said would be considered. I was angry and swore within me to make the anger visible to him. I wanted to be a Luna amongst the pack, even if temporarily but he was denying me that because Abramo showed up and brought fantastic tales about Valmore.I was angry at Abramo and Alpha Kai at the same time. As I retired for the day, I was laden with fear for what was to come. Just wanted things to work out… ***The day Alpha Kai decided that we would go back to Valmore, Abramo had helped us mount the horses, Sterling and I and we had galloped behind the men as they led the way. The battle was not as fierce as I had imagined. The pack of Valmore had at first only fought half mindlessly, while S
"What do you want, Katara?"I asked her. She continued to stare at me. Patiently. She knew what she wanted but voicing it could be the problem. "Mention to me how you would want to be made love to. You have as much control of my body as I do yours. Do you know that?"I asked… she nodded. "Kiss me, My lord," She said as she offered her lips. I took her lips tenderly while her hands snaked up to hold my neck. Drawing me down to her. Her hard nipples rubbed against my chest, firing my desire and intensifying my need. I lifted her up to my thighs and made her stay atop. I was careful to ensure that I did not slip into her already wet core. Her light touches and slow moans heightened the pleasure and soon, she was tearing at me, kissing me with an urgency and need that I reciprocated. "What now, do you want, my Luna?"I asked against her parted lips. She smiled as the red sprang to her cheeks again."I do want you, Alpha Kai,"She admitted. I kissed her again. She knew what she wan
Alpha Kai did not care about their looks. Abramo stood by his side all the while, whispering nothing to him to soften his mind but I did. "My Lord, in as much as I do not wish to interfere in matters like this, I will like to mention to you that what you have said to this tribe today is evil! How, tell me, do you conveniently repay good with bad?" I asked him although in a hush. He turned to look at me. "You do not know anything about this, woman. You know not what my aim is," He replied through gritted teeth. "I do not give a damn about your selfish ambitions! What aim keeps you from supporting the people who helped you only a few days ago? Even the Moon Goddess, will be displeased at your indifference towards this pack who had helped you in the past," I said. He looked menacingly at me but I did not back down. I stared at him in the eyes and i knew that the men, all of them in the hall had stopped murmuring and their attention was now focused on me and Alpha Kai. "What do yo
As I set Katara down on the bed, she glared at me. I turned away from her and began to take off my boots."Why do you cause me so much embarrassment?"I heard her ask through gritted teeth. She was angry. Her anger excited me rather than infuriate me. I was supposed to be the angry one but here she was, playing my role."You find pleasure in embarrassing me or why else would you have done that?"She asked. I did not reply. I continued to focus on undressing and it irritated her."Now you will only keep silent?" She asked, her eyes flashing."What would you have me reply you? Do you know, Katara, that you have made me angry more than I can endure, and yet I have refused to unleash my anger on you?" I asked without turning to look at her. I took off my shirt as I spoke and turned around only to almost ram into her. She had quietly lifted herself off the bed and was standing right before me."What have I done to you that you should unleash your anger on me?"She was looking at me daring
"Then what is it that amuses you?" "You have made yourself the man who knows so much about love. One who can advice and expect to be taken seriously. I find that amusing. Forgive me, " I said. The smile had left my face as I looked at him. "Well, you might think I make vain jokes, but heed me, Alpha. Do not pressure your Luna. Give her the space she needs. She deserves some time alone. If she acts like she doesn't want you around her, then don't go pressure her, " Abramo said. He was intent on passing his message and was near desperate to make me heed his advice and thinking about it, I found elements of truth in it. Katara had acted like she wanted her space and I would give her that it it made her feel good. I had wanted time alone with her but she had ran back to her maids, to finish some task which I knew nothing about. Perhaps, the task which she must accomplish was of great importance and as such, she would not want to be disturbed. “I can use your advice. We should now
[Eight months later]Kai’s POV Katara had been with her ladies when she had been suddenly rushed out. I was right in the hallway, coming to the chambers to be with her when the ladies rushed her out. She was in labor and was going to give birth soon. I wanted to carry her off to wherever she was to be taken to but the ladies will not let me. "Let me carry her so it will be easier for you. Surely, you can not hold her like this and walk this slowly when she is in obvious pains." I tried to explain to the ladies but they will not hear of it. Katara was wailing as she took one laborious step after the other. I was not going to watch them continue in such slow progression so I brushed past them and whisked Katara off her feet. The ladies gasped in surprise but did not say anything when I began to walk away to the direction I suspected they were headed. It was to the midwife's place… Katara was still tearing at her clothes and thumping her fists on my chest when I arrived the midwife's
"It is perhaps by chance that I know this story myself. Now to the story, the men he had taken to form a pack had turned against him and had also taken with them the chest and had abused the magical items in it just as the son had done…They, captured many small packs and did many evil and perverted justice and looted packs and took the wives of others until the Moon Goddess had, had enough and the chest along with the items had disappeared on its own.”The men had thought that chest was stolen while they had slept, but when they could not find it, they had accused one another of the theft of the chest and they had fought and killed each other. For years, the chest appeared in many different places and so many packs had tried to open it to see its content all to no avail and then they had tried to keep it but it had kept on disappearing-“"Does that explain why we had seen it in a dilapidated house in the former Artic pack?”Kai asked. Abramo's eyes flung wide open in surprise. "Is th
The man explained. Kai had been listening attentively as well as all those who had been in the courts. I had been paying rapt attention too. At once, Abramo left the courts and went out to mobilize the men to secure the walls and the gates against any more miscreants. I could hear him shouting orders to the men as they ran to and fro. "The items are not yours to begin with. It is a bit difficult for me to understand how you have come to demand things that are not yours while trying to impress on us that you will take our fight and fight?' Kai said. He was angry as he spoke and the men did not speak for a long time. They were silent for a long while. "I will way you to leave Valmore now and we shall handle whatever trouble comes with the items we possess. It is ours to worry about not yours." Kai said. The men exchanged puzzled glances but did not make any attempt to leave. Kai stood there, brimming with anger as he watched them. "We are afraid you might be forced to submit the b
He said as he stooped and planted a kiss on my forehead. I nodded. I was not sure I wanted to remain indoors everytime if that was what pregnancy entailed. I was beginning to feel lazy. As Kai walked to the door, there was a sudden desperate knock on the door. He reached the door and opened it. The guard who was standing there was holding his sword by the hilt, he was breathing with so much gust and Kai walked with him down the hall, slamming the door behind him shut. I was worried as I leapt off the bed and went to the window to see what was really going on down there. There was an entourage and there were a few men on horseback. They were all waiting down the Castle floors, waiting to see the Alpha no doubt… I stood by the window for long, to see what was going to happen then. They did not look like they had come for peace. They looked like that were ready for war. Trouble. They did nothing to hide their intention. As far as I knew, Valmore was not in any trouble with any pack.
When I woke up, Kai was by the side of the bed. He had picked a chair and was sitting by the bed, watching me. I had no idea how long he had been standing there and as I opened my eyes to take in the environment, the bright afternoon light flooding the room, I was disoriented. "Relax, beauty. Hope you had a peaceful rest?" He asked as my eyes rested on him. I tried to nod but felt a sudden discomfort around my neck and so I ditched the idea. "How long have you been sitting there?" I asked instead. He smiled. "For a long time, beauty. A really long time." He said. He did not have the book in his hand again and he did not seem to be unkempt. He had even shaved! When had he done that? "You had the stubble last night and I've not seen you all morning Until now. When did you get a good bath?" I asked him instead. "I shaved last night. And, I was in here the moment you fell asleep to bathe and come watch over you while you slumber peacefully," He said. He was still smiling. I sighe
One thing I knew was that the Artic pack where not known for any form of magic even though it had grown in its time to become a terror to many other packs, it still did not possess magic and that was what I was sure of. Katara stirred on the bed while I was lost in thoughts and I turned to look at her. She opened her eyes drowsily. "Why are you not in bed yet, my love? You should come to bed now and have some rest," She said. She seemed to be having a hard time keeping her eyes open and I wanted her to go back to sleep "You can go back to sleep… I will join you soon," I said. She nodded and then stopped, her eyes flew open, wider. "Why are you still engrossed with that? You should leave that and have some rest." She insisted. I shook my head. She was being adamant. "Go to sleep my love. I will join you soon. I am only worried about a few things that I have found out in this book, " "Sitting up all night long will not solve the puzzle. I think so. perhaps, tomorrow you can cont
"You own it, my dear and you will make use of it the way you want.”I told her. She rose from the book and stood holding her wand. I continued with the book, the message became even more complex as I continued but I was able to grasp the messages and it included even the magical ability to grow a garden and chose the magical creatures to stay in it and tend it. There was so much knowledge in the book that I began to worry that the information was too much. "I am satisfied with the knowledge of the wand, i find it difficult to understand everything else you see in the book.”Katara said as she sashayed to the bathroom. "I will go have a bath now. Do not be too engrossed in that, hence you forget to do other things… one of which is getting up to come and take a bath.”She said as she disappeared from sight. I straightened up and took the book with me to the nearest table. I was still sitting there, totally focused on the book when she appeared again from the bathroom. She was drippi
It was a bit baffling that she was interested In magic suddenly and as we mounted the horse, I decided to ask her. She was still clutching the book and I had slipped the wand into the small bag I was carrying lest it comes alive and enchant the things around me that did not need to be enchanted."Why are you suddenly so concerned and Interested in magic?"I asked her. I hoped she heard since the horse was in motion and was whipping past trees and the wind will not let my words reach her as well as it should have. She heard me anyway. She had twisted her neck awkwardly to look back at me and speak as loud as she could. I kicked the horse and it slowed down. We are not being pursued. It was enough reason to drive calmly back to Valmore. The wind rushing past our ears were now calm and i could make out the words she spoke."I feel a certain sense of rightness with these... I value these things we found and I do not wish to lose any of them. I sincerely value them–“"I do not know why bu
The bolts had suddenly appeared and was to keep us still from using the door. It was amusing and and annoying at the same time. She seemed bent on not allowing us leave the place. I shook my head as I turned to her."Quit trying, Lady. We have to leave now."I said. Katara nudged me."Stretch the wand towards the door and it will come off." She said. She had sheathed her sword and one of her hands was now resting on the hilt of the sword. She was eager to leave. I turned away from Chloe and held the wand against the door. The door did not come open. Chloe chuckled behind us and the old lady stirred again. She was doing a good job of detaining us. She was almost accomplishing her goal which was to keep us until the old lady regained consciousness."Why is the wand not opening the door? Are you holding it wrongly?"Katara asked in a whisper. Of course Chloe and her mother did not know that the wand had only worked because I had struck it the right way without meaning to. Katara knew
