Leo.Right in the garden with my Beta Raymond, my mind kept racing with calculations. I knew for us to achieve our goals, our plans had to be flawless.I couldn't stop thinking about our quest for revenge on Asher and his pack after what they did to us, and as my thoughts lingered, scenes from the past filled my mind.My focus was brought back to reality when I saw one of the guards who had gone with my sister to Asher's pack walking towards me."Alpha!" He reverenced with a bow as soon as he got close enough to where I was standing."What news did you bring?" I asked him, wanting to know everything that happened in the course of their journey."Alpha, lady Lena has arrived safely in Alpha Asher's pack," he answered with his head still bowed.Upon hearing his words, my lips curled into a satisfactory smirk, even as my eyes glinted with determination.A short chuckle escaped my throat as I peered into space. "That's a nice one, good news too," I replied, filling my veins with a greater
LeoI was still brooding over my hurt when Raymond's voice broke into my thoughts. "I have some news, Alpha, but I don't know if you'd consider it good or bad news," he said with a gentle voice.With my knowledge of Raymond's character, I could tell that whatever the news was must be something great, since the tone of his voice had changed from the fierce determination to a more gentler tone."Speak! What is it about?" I asked without taking my eyes off a particular point in space."I heard that Xenra, the vampire queen, is still alive." Raymond's voice dropped in my heart like a rock, causing ripples of anger to spread all over my veins.As soon as I heard his words, I turned sharply towards him, my lips twitching with a simmering anger."Where did you get that from?" I asked, my voice a raw growl that echoed the anger and determination in my heart."The news is everywhere; everyone is talking about it. From what I heard, she had come back ruthless and stronger." Raymond responded wi
LeoAs I sat on the couch that day, my mind kept racing with calculations, seeking ways to carry out my revenge on both Asher and Xenra.My chain of thought was abruptly cut off by the presence of Raymond, whom I had sent to carry out an investigation on Xenra."Alpha," He greeted me with a small bow and with his hands stretched out in front of his lowered forehead.I quickly waved him up and dove into my major concern,"Tell me, how did it go?" I asked him, and my words tumbled out almost in a rush as I stared at his face."According to the investigation I had carried out, Xenra was last seen with Lenhandro. After Alpha Kent died, nobody saw or heard about her again. They only saw a fat lady running away from his chambers, but Xenra wasn't there," Raymond informed me.At his words, my forehead creased as my mind began to travel around, with countless possibilities.If Xenra wasn't there, then who killed him?I was still trying to wrap my head around the possibilities when Raymond's v
LenaHaven received the news that Asher was about going for an hunting, I knew it would be a perfect opportunity to act as a perfect mate for him, who was really interested in him.I got to his stable to find him ready to depart, and my lips curled into a barely noticeable smile. "Going for hunting without your Luna to be?!" I stated, staring at him who had turned towards me at my words."Oh, you're here. I never knew she'd be interested in hunting," He responded with a calm voice."Of course I am, I mean, why wouldn't I be interested in hunting, if I'm not, how would I be able to protect the park alongside you?" I posed my question at him.A barely noticeable smile curled his lips at my words. With that small smile on his face, he looked more handsome. His long wavy hair was tied up in a barn, which didn't just make him beautiful, but also made him look like a captain who was about to engage in a battle."Alright my Luna to be, let's go together, so that you'd show me what you're c
Asher As we sat on the couch discussing random things, our conversation was suddenly cut off by Lena's question. "Why did you leave Xenra?" She asked, staring at my face as if she wanted to extract the answers to her question herself. Although I wasn't expecting her question, I didn't appreciate her asking about my private and personal life. Even though she was my mate, she had no right to ask about it. "Nothing," I responded, as I thought of the best answer to give to her. "I didn't feel like we were meant to be together," I added, hoping she would not talk about my past or relationship with Xenra. I had tried my best not to think about Xenra; thinking or discussing her always made me angry, and since I needed Lena to believe our relationship was true, I didn't want to make her see reasons not to trust me. "Really?" Her question came as she stared at me with furrowed brows, followed by a short chuckle, even though I didn't understand why she was laughing. After her laughter ha
Xenra My steps quickened as I hurried towards the kitchen to get some fruits for Akira. Filling it with varieties of fruits, I hurried back towards the garden where Akira sat, waiting for my return. I was so engrossed with the thought of performing the task as soon as possible that I didn't notice the approaching figure. Before I could snap out of my head, I collided with someone; the unexpected force sent me off balance. The basket jostled, causing the fruits to fall off the baske in different directions. "I'm so sorry," I swiftly apologised to Lena, who had bumped into me. Well, since I was trying to avoid any confrontation with her, I swiftly apologized. I didn't want to be in her black book or get into any form of trouble. Lena stood still and folded her hands across her chest, while I bent down almost immediately. I finished speaking and started picking the fruits that had rolled in different directions. As I continued to pick the fruits, I was filled with anger. I hated th
Xenra"You're not yet the Luna, and you should know your place in my pack," Akira stated. Although she spoke gently, there was an unmistakable note of anger in her voice.Lena, at her words, scoffed, her brows arched with disdain."What did you just say, dear sister-in-law?" She asked, her words dripping sarcastically.Deep within me, I was beginning to feel calm; it was high time someone put her in her place. "You heard me right, Lena. This is not your pack; you're not even the Luna. What right do you have to sanction anyone so cruelly?" Akira asked, her voice suddenly tight.Her displeasure was etched on her face, as thick lines creased her forehead.A derisive snort escaped Lena's nostrils. She clearly wasn't going to put up with the charade anymore."I've always endured you talking down on me, especially in the presence of the maids, especially in the presence of those worthless slaves." Lena's voice came in a low growl. Her lips contorted in fury as she stared at Akira with a con
LeoMy eyes flew open as I jolted out of my dream that afternoon. Although it was a dream, I felt a heavy weight of uneasiness in my heart.The fact that I had the same dream again got me so worried, although I had always known it wasn't an ordinary dream; this time around, I was certain that it was a message from the moon goddess.Filled with worry and concern, I called my Beta. The door immediately opened, revealing Raymond, who walked in."Alpha!" He greeted with a bow, "Rise," I ordered. I was far too concerned about my dream to indulge in his reverence."You sent for me, Alpha. What is the matter?" He asked with a tone that was like that of a soldier who's ready to perform a task,"I keep having this same dream, which means it's a message from the moon goddess," I said, my words laced with a mix of concern and worry."Do you mean the dream you told me about earlier?" He asked, his voice wrapped with scepticism,I nodded my head in response, too engrossed in thought to say a word.
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
RoyceThe gazes of everyone were heavy on me, waiting for the verdict that would convict her of the accusation.Deep within me, I felt it was a perfect opportunity to remove the perceived threat to my path of revenge, and I knew I shouldn't let it slip through my fingers.I was still pondering how to go about it, when Sylvester's facial gesture caught my attention. 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!" I swiftly replied, my voice firm and steady, echoing the firm determination that had settled in my heart.As far as I knew, I shouldn't miss the opportun

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
Vampire QueenI puffed out a deep breath as soon as I closed the door behind me, and then I sighed in relief as the weight of fear gradually lifted off my shoulders."That was close, so close!" 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!" Randy exclaimed, h
