Zach’s POVNo one wanted to talk to me after what had happened. Not even my father or any of the elders.Even going to Mara had me getting scolded for my actions.“Are you out of your fucking mind?!” She yelled at me which took me back.“What did I do?” I asked while pacing around the empty throne room. “I did what I felt was best.”“She is your Luna! You can’t just drop that? There are things to this.”“I felt a connection with you that I didn’t feel with her. I just needed some time to think and I…”While I spoke with her, my father got into the hall with his steps being too loud to continue.She got up and bowed to him before leaving.“What the hell is the matter with you?” He asked as I rolled my eyes.“Not now, father. I have things to do and right now, I just want to be on my own.”“Is this how you intend to rule this pack? By being indecisive?”“How was I indecisive? I just needed some time to think.”“You had multiple days to do that and you did nothing of that sort. You decid
Zach’s POV“So what do you want to do?” Mara asked. “You can’t just stand here telling me all of that. You need to apologize to the person you truly broke. If it were up to me, I would have gotten my hands on some acid right now.”That didn’t look like the kind of solution I was looking for.But everyone was different in their own way.“I tried apologizing to her but she wouldn’t see me.”“She’s hurt, dummy,” she laughed a little, which eased the situation. “You never knew how to be empathetic.”For a few minutes we let the silence ruminate between us before breaking it.“So what do you want me to do?”“Meet her tomorrow. Or talk to the person closest to her. Let them do the talking and vouch for you.”“Thank you,” I smiled while looking into the clouds.“Oh and Zach, you screwed up this time. Like you screwed up really big. You shouldn’t have done that. Maybe next time, be careful before doing it.”I nodded.And with that advise, my childhood friend just as she had come back into my
Zach’s POVShe didn’t mind that I wanted to be at the pack to watch her spat so I strolled down with her while engaging her into a conversation.“There are things that hurt us the most and this is one of them. You just can’t leave anyone at the altar. You only do that to someone you truly hate and despise. Maybe you want to show them revenge or something.”When she said that, I felt even more terrible, but she wasn’t wrong.“Fine, what should I do?” There had to be a way to go about this.“First, you’ll need to give her some space to recover from the shock you just gave her.”“But I need her with me.”“Alpha Zach,” she halted, turning to face me. “This isn’t about you. You hurt my sister. She needs space. Right now she feels like the entire world is against her. You didn’t get what she had to go through because she was getting mated to you. She was threatened but she persevered. “She believed that the love you both had was real. Even your father and the elders showed up at our house
Zach’s POVThe man at one time punched her with his powerful fist, one she could not dodge, but she blocked it with her arm which pushed her to her limits as she was blown backwards to the edge of the ring.“Not bad,” he laughed. “Now let’s see if you can keep that up and attack me.”Without wasting any time, she blitzed into him, claws out and fangs ready to attack. When she got into his range, she flipped into the air, turning around before punching him in the face which he easily weaved out of her way.I was enjoying the way they danced on the field. This was different from how I fought and I enjoyed their battle.The man was testing her reflexes and adaptability. Despite her master being a formidable challenge, Willow remained focused on winning, her determination shining through.As the session continued, Willow’s superhuman strength became even greater. Everyone could see her strikes which carried an intensity that surpassed the norms of a regular wolf. She could easily fool me
Zach’s POVWe had a small conversation before she was called for her next spar which had me alone all over again.When she was gone, I looked around to see how busy the field was and decided that maybe going home would not be a bad idea.When I got home, the first thing I did was to order for the robot to be brought out for me to spar with it.“It isn’t ready sire,” they said to me, but one look at the scientist had him getting out the machine.It took one enraged kick for the machine to go flying through the door and into the fields before I stormed off to my room.I was so mad, I could not think straight.I had multiple messages from the maids who had been sent to me to tell me about the daily meeting but I ordered for them to be sent home. I didn’t want to be with any of them, I wanted to be alone.I was mad at myself for what I had done to Kayla.I was so stupid for doing that to her. She didn’t deserve it and I was stupid for letting her be on her own. She deserved more than I wa
Zach’s POVI hated whenever he was right. Now I had nothing to say and I wanted to snag someone for what they had done to her. There was only a group of people that could pay for how they were treating Kayla and I was going to pass that law.A week of punishment should do the pack good. They were about to feel my wrath.“Whatever you’re planning to do, I suggest you think seriously about it before you go ahead,” the old alpha said as I shrugged.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”He chuckled. “Son, I’ve known you since you were a baby. Now I might not have been close to you but I definitely know that look in your eye when you have a plan brewing. My advice to you is to not do it. It could backfire. Not what you need now.”But I didn’t care. I was going to do it.“Goodnight,” I said to my feet, walking to my room as I smiled evilly.***As the ruler of the kingdom, I awoke the next morning with my anger burning like a fiery tempest within me, fueled by the mistreatment dished ou
Zach’s POVThey didn’t seem to like what I had said but I didn’t care. I was going to show them who was in charge and show them I didn’t care about their opinions.“You will all be confined to a spartan room, devoid of any luxuries or comforts, technology or old fashioned luxury. This solitude should give you all ample time to reflect upon the weight of your words and the impact that you have all wrought on both the woman and the kingdom.”“Preposterous!” Yelled Fiona’s father to his feet. “I will not stand for this. I choose to rebel. Never will I stand for such nonsense. Who do you think you are?”“Your alpha, and you will do well to notice it and feel my wrath if you choose to still act like a child. Now sit and don’t be a bother to me or the meeting.”“I will not!” He said stubbornly which had me leaning back in my seat as I looked at him, our eyes clashing with rage.But he had just made a very terrible mistake. He shouldn’t have challenged me and he was about to regret it.“Elde
Zach’s POVThere was nothing they could say to me as I went on with my words.“You all have disappointed me and it is very evident with how you have spoken to Kayla. For that, you will all be punished. So do your work and you will live peacefully in my pack. Don’t and you will be shown the way out.”Heavy silence hung in the air as the elders pondered the consequences of their actions. My father was confused about what was going on but I didn’t care. I just wanted them to know that I was not going to condone stupid behavior in my pack.They had gone out of bounds with their stupidity, it was time to put everyone in their fucking place.“Is this about that girl?” Father said to his feet. “If this is about her then I think you’re taking this joke way too far. I already told you that we are not the reason you dumped her.”“And I have made it clear to you that I know that. But bullying someone I intended to mate with is an insult to me and my position as the alpha and I am going to put e
