My fists clenched beside me as I watched the Alpha gradually regain his breath pace. Deep within me, I was seething; my teeth were gritted as I stared furiously at him.

I wanted to kick and hit hard against the wall at his narrow escape from death's grip, but since I wasn't alone, I knew I had to keep my anger in.

"The Alpha needs to get some rest." It was the annoying fat Omega's voice that pierced through the fog of anger that had settled in my heart.

If it were before, she would have been the one to excuse us, while I stayed watch over the Alpha, but at that moment, I saw it as an opportunity to slip out of his presence and let my anger out.

'After all, who cares if anything happens to him while I'm away? It'd be an opportunity to get rid of two birds with one lucky opportunity.' I pondered within myself.

With a small bow of my head towards the feeble Alpha whose face was beginning to bubble up with life again, I made my way out of his sight, my steps heavy with de

    RoyceI snapped out of the thoughts that had kept me busy to find Sylvester's eyes sparkling in excitement.Since I wasn't interested in taking part in that conversation, I totally ignored him."Somehow, I just feel the fat maid is kind of unique since she was the only one who was able to help him even though she's new in our pack." He added, his words laced with certainty.Somehow he had managed to link it up to that annoying fat maid again, but his praises and admiration for her had only fuelled my resentment towards her.No matter how much he tried to portray her in a good light, all I felt towards her was hatred and anger. Right then, I realised she could stand in my way since she was able to resuscitate the dying Alpha."She's in no way unique," I finally voiced out the thoughts that had kept me busy, causing Sylvester's head to whip towards me, as though he had been pondering something.But before he could say a word, I added, "In fact, she's a threat to me. I see her as someone

    XenraAfter a while of staring at Asher's face, I heaved a sigh of relief and stood up to leave. He was sleeping soundly now, like a little baby; the strain on his face had given way for a semblance of serenity.After adjusting the blanket to his neck, I got ready to leave. As soon as I turned around, my gaze fell on the vampire queen, who had just walked into the room."That was quite impressive." She stated as she closed up the distance between us, a broad smile curling her lips as she stared at me.The sight of my body standing right before me filled me with a great sense of sadness. My gaze swept through her, and I saw my body as graceful as ever.My brows creased slightly as I stared into her eyes, searching for whatever might give her away or reveal a little sign of guilt, but she maintained an impeccable expression.Unlike what I had expected, her eyes glinted with warmth; there was no awkwardness in her smile as though she had nothing to hide."I must say you did a good job."

    XenraFilled with that determination, I made my way to the other side of the palace, my eyes scanning every nook and corner.My steps were filled with determination as I glided through the pathway that led to my secret chambers, a place known by a few of my personal guards. I had to retrieve some of my ancient books that made me tick, and some of the books that could provide a solution to my mess.I slipped into my secret library, and had just begun to tiptoe towards my bookshelves when I heard the voice of a guard behind me, "What the hell do you think you're doing?" The man questioned, his voice ringing with an authority that jolted me off my carefulness and halted me in my tracks.My heart skipped a beat and my eyes grew a little wilder, but just before I could turn towards the person who had just spoken, a knowing ignited my understanding and stilled my once racing heart. I knew who that voice belonged to—Marc.A smile stretched across my face at the sight of hope. I had yearn

    XenraJust like a flash, he swung his sword towards me, a swishing sound filling the air as it sliced through the air to my neck."Speak!" He bellowed, his chin and nose scrunched up in a fierce determination.In that instant, I raised my jaw upwards and stared straight into his eyes, stilling whatever fear was trying to find its way into my heart.I knew it was an opportunity for me to regain my place in my home. I knew getting Marcus's trust would be a stepping stone to my comeback. So I determined to grab the opportunity before me.I was going to do anything to make sure I was able to convince him that I was the real vampire queen. I was still gathering my thoughts when Marcus' voice came again,"You better start speaking before I slit your head off your neck." His voice was stern and unwavering as he held my gaze, but I remained calm and collected.I stretched out my hands, but it wasn't because I was surrendering to Marcus but because I wanted to assure him that I was harmless.

    XenraI could see the confusion in his eyes as his gaze turned inwardly again. At that moment, scenes of my initial encounter with her began to replay in my head again."I don't really know," I answered, now partly engrossed in thoughts. "I'm confused about it as well." My words echoing the confusion that had settled in my heart.Right there, I began to ponder my initial assumptions, but the fact that she had betrayed no emotions when we met totally pulled down every single thing I had once believed to be true.After about six more seconds, I snapped out of the thoughts that had gotten me busy and fixed my gaze back on Marcus Seraphite.Despite the growing feeling of uncertainty within me, I still went ahead and relayed my concerns to him."Although I suspect she's the original owner of this body I'm now occupying," I said, "I think the moon goddess caused a switch when the incident happened that night."The words had barely left my lips when Marcus exclaimed, "I knew it!" His eyes g

    XenraAfter a careful observation, I got to the place where Marcus and I had agreed to meet to find him waiting for me already.As soon as he saw me, he closed up the distance between us, and with a small bow of his head, he acknowledged my presence, "My Lady!""I think I've found a way to let you into your secret chambers." He said, his voice rushed and urgent, causing my eyes to glint with anticipation as I stared at him, "Tell me about it," I responded, my tone, matching the urgency in his tone.As I waited for his response, I noticed a flicker of hesitation on Marcus' face. It was as though he was considering whether to let me in on it or not.After about five seconds that stretched longer than it should, I asked, "What is the matter?" Breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled upon us."It's a bit risky, my lady, and would require us to be extremely careful in order not to attract the attention of any guard." He answered, his voice heavy with concern.I could see the wo

    Vampire QueenAs I descended the staircase from my chambers with my friend Hannah and Leon—my most trusted guard—I saw Marcus walking towards the door, and my lips twitched with irritation."Marcus!" I called out to him, halting him immediately in his tracks.Immediately, he turned and walked towards the staircase where I stood, while I drew in a deep breath, stilling whatever irritation had settled in my heart."Yes, my lady!" Marcus answered as soon as he got to the foot of the staircase, with a bow and a gesture of reverence.I forced a smile on my face, a mask I had worn over my growing uneasiness as I began to speak,"I saw you talking to that fat maid that came with the Alpha; hope all is well?" I asked as calmly as I could."Oh my lady," Marcus' response came almost immediately, "it was nothing to be concerned about, my lady. She was just asking for assistance." Marcus responded with his hands held together in reverence.As soon as the words left his lips, I burst into laughter

    Vampire QueenAs I walked through the hallway leading to Asher's room, his door suddenly swung open, followed by Asher, who burst through it.From the expression on his face, I didn't need anyone to tell me he was angry. He had his hands hanging on his hips as he stood outside, with his head hanging down.He seemed to be so engrossed in whatever had gotten him so angry that he didn't notice my approaching figure until I got close enough."Is everything alright?" I asked with furrowed brows, my voice tinged with concern, or maybe a feigned concern since I had to put on the most believable and genuine facade I could find.Asher's head whipped towards my direction as soon as he heard my words, accompanied by a surprised "Oh!""Yes, yes, I'm fine." He affirmed, fervently nodding his head as his hands dropped from his jaw.But I wasn't convinced, not after the look I had earlier seen on his face. "Are you sure about that? You looked angry," I asserted, my voice calm and steady as I searche

    Royce"Just wait and see what I'm about to do." I answered, my voice firm and steady, echoing the firm determination that had completely overwhelmed me.Without waiting for another second, I turned towards one of the guards, who was standing at his post some steps away from us, and called, "Number four!" My voice, bouncing off the space.In that instant, number four turned, and with a matching intensity, he ran towards me. He halted at a considerable distance and bowed his head. "Yes, my Lord," he answered."Go get me the Chief Slave Officer!" I ordered with a firm voice."Yes, my Lord," he answered, took another bow, and with the same haste he arrived with, he ran out of my sight."What are you really planning to do?" Sylvester's question broke into the fog of determination that had surrounded me, his voice tinged with a mix of surprise and curiosity."I'm going to do what I ought to have done all this while," I answered, my jaw clenched, a reflection of the fierce determination burn

    Royce."Still thinking about it?" Sylvester's voice sliced into the thoughts that had gotten me busy, snapping me back to the present.I turned to find him standing behind me, and from the expression on his face, I could tell he was satisfied with how I had handled the situation.I pulled my gaze from him and said, "I'm suspicious of that lady." My voice mirrored the certainty in my heart."Which lady?" Sylvester swiftly asked, his voice as surprised as the expression on his face.But it was clear he wasn't really asking because he didn't know who I was talking about, as he continued almost immediately, "You mean Xenra?" Disbelief coating his tone.I totally ignored his disbelief. Deep within me, I was certain about what I said; I knew there was something more about her, even though I just couldn't wrap my fingers around it."There's something about her," I continued in a firm voice, "Although I just can't place it, I can tell she's not ordinary. She's more than what we've seen." I vo

As I fixed my gaze on him, he tilted his head from side to side and back, and I understood that he was asking for an audience.Before I could get to my feet, he began to walk away, while I stood up and followed him to a secluded corner."What are you trying to do?" He asked me as soon as I stood beside him. Without waiting for my response, he continued, "Are you planning on telling the Alpha about it?" His voice was tinged with a mix of surprise and curiosity."Of course!"

    Xenra"What worked?" Zara's voice broke into the fog of excitement that had surrounded me, her words laced with curiosity.Without waiting for another second, I turned towards the path, determined to rush back to the room and check the book that had unsealed that power.I wanted to begin my search for answers and investigation on what to do as soon as possible.I had only taken two steps from where I stood when I saw three elite wolves walking towards me, which halted me in my tracks.The smile on my face froze immediately, and just then I realized that every single person present in the field was staring at me.As my gaze darted to their faces, I saw the fear in their eyes. Some of them even had their jaws dropped and eyes wide open.They seemed not to have recovered from the shock they had felt.My gaze fell on the hefty guard who was still struggling to get up from where he had landed, but as soon a

    XenraIsabella came to a halt before me, her girls clustering behind her, while Zara drew closer to me.Then a short, empty laugh escaped her throat, after which she began to speak."So you think you can escape my hook after embarrassing me the last time, huh?" She said, her voice dripping with mockery.She had a smirk on her face as she stared at me with a mix of excitement and determination glinting in her eyes.Without waiting for me to say something, she pressed on, "I've been waiting for you, and now I've seen the perfect time to deal with you." Her words tumbled out in a rush."I'm so going to make your life miserable so that when you see me next time, you'd be afraid of me." She glared at me, her words heavy with hatred as she spoke.From where I stood, I could hear Zara's ragged breathing and the fear flickering in her eyes, and I understood she was scared—scared of them, scared of what they had planned to do to us.But there was no iota of fear in me, nor did I flinch at all

I muttered to myself, my voice breathy as I dwelled on how I had almost embarrassed myself.As I walked towards my bed, Hannah swiftly jumped down from the bed and rushed towards me. "Goodness," she exclaimed. "That guy is really cute." Her voice bubbling with cheerfulness as she closed up the distance between us, the excited glint in her eyes was unmistakable.It was her words that snapped me out of the thoughts that had kept me busy, and I couldn't help but join in her infectious excitement."Yeah!" I answered, nodding my head in agreement to what she had just said."I have to admit, Hannah, Xenra really has an eye for cute things," I admitted with a matching intensity. "Even Asher is so cute and enchanting.""The vampire queen really enjoyed herself because these guys are so hot," I giggled

    LenhandroMy heart was greatly uneasy as I journeyed from my pack to Maltos' Castle. Although I hadn't lost my confidence, I couldn't help thinking about the possible probabilities.Among all the questions swirling within me, one thought was deeply seated in my heart: what would Xenra's reaction be?The more I tried to figure it out, and the more I tried to reconcile Xenra's character to her possible reaction, the more I felt greatly disturbed.I was faced with an insurmountable mountain, not sure of what lay ahead of me, but one thing I was sure about was the fact that I was going to end her life again."You were lucky the first time, Xenra, but you won't be lucky this time around!" I muttered beneath my breath, my lips curling upwards with a fierce determination.After a while, I snapped out of the thoughts that had kept me busy and turned towards my brother, Randy, and personal assistant, Jerome, who were both on the horses beside my chariot."When we get to Maltos' Castle," I bega

    LenhandroMy hands were folded behind me as I stared at the throne where I had once occupied. After a very long time, I was back to my pack, and as I fixed my gaze upon it, I felt a renewed sense of energy coursing through my veins.The emerging figure of Jerome walking towards his post caught my attention, but he wasn't the gallant, ever-ready Jerome I had always known.He was reduced to a mere shadow of himself, trembling all over like a weakling, with his fingers held beneath his stomach. He couldn't even meet my gaze.After a while of staring at him, I tore my gaze away from him and fixed it back on my golden throne, with its soft white cushion and lion-head armchair.As I pondered my next course of action, my brother Randy's voice rang out from behind me, "Brother!" He called, his voice ringing with excitement.As the soft thud on the wooden floor drew closer, I turned towards him, a broad smile clearly plastered on his face."I've missed you so much, brother!"
