AsherI needed no one to tell me how much Xenra liked Akira. She was so fond of her and would never ask her to leave her alone.Akira, at her words, quickly giggled, "I'm sorry about that; it's just that I've missed you so much," she stated, her words dripping with excitement."It's okay," Xenra responded, with a small smile on her face, and then sat back in her spot.Akira quickly drew the other chair closer to her, her face broadened with a wide smile."Oh, Xenra, you don't know how much I've missed you. How have you been? You're not looking any different, still the same, so beautiful and young," Akira's words tumbled out in a rush as she spoke."I've missed you too, Akira. I'll take that as a compliment." She stated, causing my brows to twitch.A compliment? Xenra never needed anyone to tell her how beautiful she was. She was so full of pride that she needed no acknowledgement from anyone.'What the hell has happened to her? That's so weird and unlike Xenra. How can someone change
Behind the walls of the ancient Maltos Castle, a unique scent of roses and blood coated the air. The room could be described as a black paradise, with black painted walls and thick striped curtains. A huge four-poster bed lay in the middle, the black curtain sheets stretched, wrinkled by the entangled bodies hidden beneath them. The ethereal beauty sprawled on the bed, with the arms of her lover, wrapped around her delicate body. “You smell nice,” he whispered lazily. Her eyes flickered open with a low hum. From the stunning glow in the scarlet eyes, one could tell she was still immersed in the afterglow of sex.“I always smell nice.” The deep rumble from his chest made her look up. The laughter of her lover always found a way to make her heart tingle. “You have always been so cocky, my Queen and I must confess it suits you,” he flicked her nose. The Vampire Queen giggled, adjusting the sheets to hide her body. Lenhandro held down the sheets. He loved the way her pale flawless
XenraThis is insane! How can this be happening to me? I begged her to let me be reborn to take my revenge. Shouldn't she have gotten the hint that I wanted to be reborn as a vampire Queen, not whatever the hell this was?Apparently, the woman thought this was funny. She made a cruel joke out of my situation!Releasing a sigh, I accepted my fate based on compulsion. I asked for a second chance at life and I got one. The best thing to do was utilize it.Returning my gaze to the mirror, a set of scarlet orbs stared back at me. Although strange, it was somehow relieving she let me retain my terrifying eye colour. It would traumatize me if I wind up with those random blue eyes. Squishing the chubby cheeks for mental approval, a grin broke out of my face. It felt so warm. So alive. I touched my chest and just as I suspected, I heard the gentle beats of the human heart. Unlike my cold, silent, heart.“What can I say? Thank you, Moon Goddess,” I winked charmingly, secretly hoping my goo
XenraI rubbed my feet against each other, struggling to get the stupid chains off but it seemed I was only entertaining the crowd. I tried reaching for it but it only wore me out. Sweating in between ragged breaths, I gave up trying. My body was weak and begging for relief. So I hung there, helplessly as my captors approached me with grinning faces. The greed in their eyes warned me that I had a lot coming my way if they successfully captured me. “Quite lively for an omega, aren't you?” One of the slavers snorted, reaching for my face. My expression went stoic as my eyes darkened ruthlessly. I tilted my head, sinking my teeth into his hands before fisting him in the balls and shoving him. He hit the ground, groaning in pain as the others burst into laughter. "Quite a feisty one I must admit. She has a fire and quite a temper. This might just be our best one yet,” another chuckled, stepping from behind. I tried to spin around. Give him a piece of my mind but something pierced i
XenraIt seemed like the effect of the drug was fading so I was awfully aware of everything going on around me. In detail this time. Asher's once shimmering grey eyes were ice cold now, sweeping through each slaver with an intensity that made them shiver. It seemed most of them recognized him. This ruthless werewolf leader made even the mighty crumble before him. Whether it was the powerful aura he exuded or the strength built in those muscles, whichever it was it compelled a submission that required more than willpower to resist.Considering how many times he had me begging, squirming in his bed.I couldn't help but wonder if he still hated me now. Our relationship didn't exactly end on good terms. Did he still think of me?The slavers began to slowly retreat in panic. They knew what this man was capable of and how many packs he reduced to dust. “We don't mean trouble, Alpha. We are only chasing a runaway slave,” as if to back their claim, they raised my hand to reveal that slave
XenraOn hearing the words, the slavers seemed to have gone through five rounds of death. The wolves continued to enclose them, flashing their fangs and threatening movements, further intensifying their fear. In less than a second, they pounced and the silent night was disturbed with screams and pleas. The traders tried to fight back, a few of them transforming into their weak werewolf forms. If I thought I had seen humiliation, this was the worst. Before the elite wolves, they looked like cubs. Small and inferior. It made the killing process easier. As the weaker wolves attacked, the bigger wolves curved strategically, sinking their fangs into their necks. One snap and they all went limp. All except the squirming slave master. Who looked like he was on the verge of passing out. “P…Please….” Asher's cold gaze made him hold his breath, afraid the wolves would kill him if he even breathed wrong. “I don't intend to kill you. I need your help,” Asher said slowly. I looked at him in
Xenra "You want to kill yourself with that bag of nonsense?" Asher's low growl shattered the momentary silence that had accompanied the thick darkness surrounding us. Huh! Did he just call me a bag of nonsense? I was still trying to process Asher's words when I felt the arms of my saviour give way. My eyes bulged, and before I could get myself to say no or tug onto his arms, my body met the ground with a loud thud, sending dust flying in the air like a heavy bag would. My eyes screwed shut, and I coughed, choking from the smell of dust that flew into my mouth and nostrils from that collision. A loud throaty chuckle covered my coughing sound; they all seemed entertained. The sound of which made my blood boil. 'This is the height of it; I can't take it anymore. How dare they do this to me, a vampire queen?!' My fists balled, and my eyes flew open as I tried to spring myself up like I had always done, but I could only move my clenched fists and tight muscles. 'Damn! Curse this sac
Xenra "He has not been a bad leader after all, even though he's still that cruel, heartless pack of ice I've always known," my inner voice dripped with admiration. My lips turned downward, and I nodded my head as I took in the sight before me. I noticed the once rocky and rough roads were now smothered and overlaid with marbles, not just in his courtyard. The streets had tiled roads as well, unlike what I had remembered. I had always disliked coming to his pack because the black trail of my gown always got smeared with dust every time I visited, despite how careful I was. "Fall in!" The one that had commented on my skin earlier ordered, and the two ladies scrambled together at his voice. They were clearly scared. As expectedof lowly Omegas, the fear in their faces was undeniable, but how could I, Xenra, be told what to do and what not to? A snort of derision escaped my nostrils at my thoughts, and I rolled my eyes, maintaining my stance. As it should be, he gestured at the girl

Asher.It was early morning when I quietly left Alpha Raymond's room.I didn't want to be noticed by guards or any servants,I just wanted to rush to my room and avoid anyone seeing me.As I walked to my door,I couldn't stop thinking about the blissful night Raymond and myself had,it was just right and no matter how much I pondered on it,I equally had no regret. My feelings were in disappray,I didn't know what I feel for Raymond now,but the only thing that's certain is that I wanted him around and felt safe in his presence.I was already back in my room and was about to head to the bathroom when I heard the sound of the door.I opened it and my heart jumped when I saw it was my mother who was at the door."Aurora, are you Okay?" She asked with a clear voice but which was equally laced with worry. I could tell she was stressed and concerned about my welfare."I'm fine,mother, what happened?" I couldn't help but to ask,my eyes laced to hers as I wondered what was wrong."Where were you? I
Xenra"I'm not scared of Alpha Raymond and he wouldn't stop me from killing you if I wanted to," Reginald gushed out as he pushed Mike's head with anger."I'm scared of no one," Reginald uttered as he sat with confidence in his throne."Maybe you're scared of no one but I will advise you to be scared of this snake by your side,she is deadly and clearly never satisfied. She will be your ruin if you aren't careful." Mike said with confidence and determination,his eyes fixated on Alpha Reginald.I couldn't believe my eyes the moment I saw Beta Mike in Reginald's pack. What was he doing here? Is Raymond aware he's here? These were the questions that couldn't leave my mind as I looked at him.My heart was struck in fear and uncertainty,I was helpless at the moment but I desperately wished there was something I could do at all. It would have been the best thing ever."Keep shut Mike,I know you don't have anything good to say about me,but mind the way you describe me," I warned fiercely,my e
Xenra"He is Beta Mike of Blackwood pack,I remember he came with Alpha Raymond during the war," The man spoke out and realisation instantly settled in Beta Mason's eyes."I thought as much considering the aura from your wolf, " Beta Mason chipped in. He walked away from me and ordered his men."Seize him immediately, we will take him before Alpha Reginald," He instructed and the guards surrounded me from every corner."What's the meaning of this Beta Mason,I demand some respect," I thundered in anger,my eyes blazing in flames. I had remained silent all this while because I wanted to observe them for a bit and find out what they were up to but I couldn't allow myself to be disrespected and treated like trash,my wolf wouldn't succumb to such condescension."You have no choice Beta Mike,you're trespassing on Alpha Reginald land and even though I would have loved to deal with you myself but I still would like to know what Alpha Reginald would like to say," Beta Mason spoke out,his eyes g
Asher."Take the body to the morgue," Raymond ordered while he left our midst. The crowd began to disperse while Kira ran after the body in tears. Like it was said,the loss of a mate has an impact it leaves on the other person but I haven't had such experience and even the bond that was mostly spoken about was still a mystery to me. I haven't experienced any of that.The moment I left the scene to my room,the long awaited laughter I had held for a while,I couldn't hold it back but to giggled unstoppable,my laughter enjoyed the freedom it had craved after since I was in Aurora's room."Mike, look how much you fell,I guessed you didn't see this coming?" I spoke aloud. I walked to the mirror and I was pleased with the face I saw,I had indeed outshined both of them, and everything was about to fall in place. Everything I had always wanted and desperately needed was about to come to me. The feeling from my thoughts were so refreshing that I felt so good about myself."My lady,do you need
Akira"Alpha, we have always obeyed you and trust you will lead us to greatness but this time we won't keep silent about this case. If you don't punish the lady Aurora, we will have no choice but to split the pack. Blackwood pack will be split," Elder Gerald uttered with determination which made me look at him with admiration.I can't deny that I had been enjoying the drama which was being played in front of me. It was all I had always wanted. Beta Mike who will always disagree with me was actually gone and Aurora who was competing in becoming Luna was actually hanging on a thread. I actually have the best feeling ever. My heart was actually at ease."Don't pressure Alpha Raymond Elder Gerald," I managed to say. Though I was in full support of what Elder Gerald was doing, I didn't want to be too visible and wanted Raymond to know I'm practically on his side and cared about Aurora."I'm sorry Alpha but this is what we will do," Elder Gerald added. Within me I was boiling with excitemen
Asher.The sight before me was clearly unbelievable and my mouth was wide open in shock.Here was my best friend and brother in the pool of his own blood,lifeless and tossed on the floor like a piece of meat. My heart was so heavy as I didn't want to believe the sight before me. I can't do this and it was clearly the worst situation I had ever had to deal with.I felt helpless and vulnerable to the scene. My best friend was killed and my mate is being accused of his death.I didn't know who to believe and clearly the elders weren't helping matters."Alpha,we know you are probably in a tight corner because of Beta Mike's death and everything surrounding the case,but this is serious and surely shouldn't be ignored one minute, you need to do what is required of you," Elder Gerald muttered with confidence.I couldn't understand the elders one bit and their quest in making sure Aurora is punished. Though Aurora was found in the scene which made her the major target and everything but I knew
XenraEver since my case with Mike and his quest to expose me and disgrace me before the pack,I had always lived in fear,not sure of what the future holds and what might befall me at any given point in time. But for the first time,I kept totally relieved and sure that the future would be bright. My heart was beating hard against my chest but for the first time,it wasn't beating because of my usual fear but the excitement that streamed all over me for what was going to happen with Aurora. I had counted in numbers since Aurora left and I was certain that in no time,the guards would run in to seek vengeance for Beta Mike.It wasn't that long when I saw one of the guards running into the hall with fear and clear urgency.The two guards were people I intended to use to detain Aurora. I had earlier sent a little girl to tell the guards that Beta Mike requested to see them in Aurora's room,since I intended to make sure they see Aurora with Mike's body,thereby leading to questions being aske
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.
