Everyone moved swiftly into the pack house.The men carrying Lincoln rushed toward his room While the men carrying Zayne and Quinn, Liam instructed them on what to do“Take the Luna to her room As for the beta, keep him in one of the empty rooms in the pack house and make sure the door to the room is well secure until I ask for him to be brought.Feed him, but don't” he gazed at them in a deep warning “Don't take off the chain on his neck neither let him out of the room,” he said as quickly as he could using his index finger to demonstrate.As he needed to attend to the dying alpha.Zayne was higher than him in the pack, but he had made up his mind to keep him somewhere he cannot escape easily until Lincoln was back to his feet but if he was to give his verdict, Zayne would be greatly dealt with for running away and was even seen with the Luna, the mate to his Alpha, as that was a total disrespect not only to the alpha but to the entire shadow pack members.Well, anyway, he planned
He kept counting his steps as he walked towards the bed in a careful manner.He also mentally prepared his wolf to shift and fight, just in case the man was an enemy or tried to attack him.His eyes moved quickly to the door, it was jammed closed, “Has he been in the room before we even came in?” He shook his head in disapproval If the man had been in the room, he wouldn’t have taken so much time.This wasn’t the first time he left the room. He even took a long time the first time as he had to look round the room for a towel, so he shoved the thought of the man been in the room all this whole time, aside “If he hadn't been in the room, that means he was just coming but why then did I not hear the sound of the door when he came in” he reasoned in his heart, then returned his eyes to the man.His hand was moving on Lincoln’s body and that made Liam’s chest hammered, “Is he here to kill him completely?”At the thought, He doubled his legs towards the bed. Hoping to stop whatever it was
He stared at them, but they didn't say a word and that made his hand, folded in a tight fist as he gritted his teeth, then took some steps closer to them. Giving them a warning to not waste his time.As He needed to get down there, then proceeded to Lincoln’s room to watch over him, praying and hoping he gets better.“I will ask again and if you don't answer me, I will have you all greatly punish!” he said in a raised voice, that the guards stepped back in fright without saying anything. Obviously, Liam was angry with what he saw, and they didn't want his wrath to fall on any of them.“Why is her room so empty and why is she lying on a mat?” his gaze burned holes in them as it swiftly moved to look at all of them, almost immediately wanting to tell them - apart from the alpha’s order, it was evil and barbaric to do such a thing to someone simply because they weren't in the right frame of mind not to talk of doing it to the pack’s Luna.He was very sure, with the effect of the mating c
She took a deep breath to calm herself as all the things Lincoln had done, to her, all the things she had gone through because of Lincoln’s family, flashed at her face.It was so clear as though it was happening again“Ahh, stop it!” she shouted then stuck her index fingers in her ears, pushing them deeper to stop the voices as the voices of those images, kept echoing in her ear, so she thought if the voice was gone, the image would disappear but nothing stopped as the voice kept echoing even louder.“Luna, you should forgive him.” Liam's voice came from the door. He could see Quinn was struggling to make a decision about forgiving Lincoln as she shut her eyes and shouted that, his heart gladdened as It was obvious Quinn wasn’t the type that had deleted forgiveness far away from her heart. He could see, at that moment, that she was a young teen trying to avenge for all the hurt she had gone through.He wished things didn't mess up to the point it was.Lincoln and Quinn would have had
Quinn placed her hand on the bed on getting close to the bed, her gaze, moving around Lincoln's body. As so many disturbing thoughts, were gushing into her heart, on seeing Lincoln’s body were filled with bruises and deep cuts, she didn't realize she had given him this many cuts last night as everywhere was close to dark, and she was so angry.On moving her eyes to his face, her mouth fell opened as his face was designed with claws making deep cuts plastered on his face. The thought that she was the one responsible for all that, made her legs turned to jelly that she clenched her hand tightly on the bed to avoid falling.“Did I give him these cuts and bruises? Did I do all this to him, alone” she asked in her heart as the bruise and cut, still looked fresh as though she was just giving them to him.She wasn't used to seeing people's cuts or injuries as their wolf, could close up deep cuts before anyone gets to see them. So she didn't understand if the cuts were what made her almost fr
Liam had heard the voices, and he guessed the guards were at it again - waiting for someone to tell them to do whatever Quinn had commanded them.“What is wrong with this guard, are they not aware of who Quinn is? Why then do they find it so difficult to obey her all of a sudden?” he said to himself in a low mumble that he stood up then walked into the room knowing the guards were going to waste time before doing just as she had commanded and that was if they were ever going to listen to her until Lincoln wakes as on no account would they have the guts to disobey her if Lincoln was awake and In good terms with her.On a second thought, he couldn't still blame them.No one had seen Quinn for some time, just yesterday, she was bundled to the pack house with chains on her neck and wrist to tame her power, thereby, weakening her.So it was obvious to anyone who had a sense of reasoning, that Quinn had run away all the times no one was seeing her. So, unless they see Lincoln, treating her
Zayne’s eyes moved toward the bed Lincoln was on.He could recall that he saw him when he came in, but he didn’t see the bruises and cuts he was seeing now. “Maybe it’s because my eyes and everything in me was clouded with the thought of the chain on my wrist,” he said in his heart.“Besides, who would think straight with such a chain on him or her” He laughed then shook his head.The chain didn’t just weaken him, it also looked like it tempered with his sense of reasoning all the time, it was on his wrist. His body shook, shiver, ran down his whole body on remembering how powerless he felt when that chain was on his wrist.That He said to himself “The alpha needs to be awake to face everything he and his family, did”Shoving all the thoughts about the chain aside, He walked towards Lincoln.On getting close to him, he sat on the edge of the bed and then returned his eyes to Quinn.“I don't have any idea of what can be done” he shook his head “I know that your kind of wolf, is powe
“Isn't she suppose to jump, dance and run around in jubilation?Isn't she supposed to kneel to thank the moon goddess? Then leave this pack she was dragged into as a captive and return to her pack with her people?Why, then, is she acting this way?” His heart wandered in deep thought but all the answer he could come up with, was just ‘that mating with Lincoln’ and that annoyed him so much that a frown, was covered on his face.It was as though, he was related to Quinn and needed her to do things that would make her happy And all he could place his finger on that would make her happy, was avenging her father’s death as he got to know about that when she came with that man to the hut, how all she wanted was to avenge for her father's death without a care if it was going to end the life of her mate. So to him, since the moon goddess had given her a wolf that was able to fight Lincoln till he got all that bruises and cuts he was seeing and in this unconscious state he was, she had the
“She was attacked by a rogue. We were able to kill the wolf rogue, but she had already lost her life By then” Zayne explained “And the dead body?” he asked “Over there” Liam pointed beside the Bush while Lincoln followed his pointed finger.“The rogue is on its own Take her body, then bury in the wood as for that,” he points at the dead rogue, “Throw it away that's its punishment for killing the unharmed maid.The moon is coming out for the first time in this year this night and everyone should be out by 8:00 pm outside the pack house. I have something I am going to do” he said before walking into the pack house while the crowd, soon, disperse to their separate room.A few minutes past 8:00 pm, Lincoln walked out of his room He was dressed in purple rope and a black legging.“Is everything ready,” he asked on seeing Zayne at the door He had decided to forgive him since despite everything he had done, everyone forgave him and gave him another chance and that, he has extended to Za
Lincoln, alpha jaxon, and Quinn drove back to shadow pack.Lincoln made the guards release the alphas in cells and everyone held captive While everyone left to their pack.***Quinn was training in the field in Blue Moon pack when she noticed someone’s presence.“Who is there,” she asked, darting her eyes around.She was scared as she had been away from her pack for months now, and she wasn't aware of how the pack had been if it was now a den for evil creatures or bad wolves.They even had to do a whole lot of cleaning and weeding of grass before they were able to move into the pack houseBut she didn't show her fear just in case the person was an enemy so that, he or she, won't use it against her.She looked around trying to see if she could see of the guard, but none was around, so she decided to fight for her life all by herselfAs with her allowing her fear to take control of her, she might end up forgetting her wolf was a strong and powerful one.So taking a deep breath to cance
“Let me go,” Quinn said, but Lincoln refused. Instead, he pulled her closer and held her by the waist. “Quinn, I miss you,” he whispered in her ear. Their closeness caused a shiver to run down Quinn's back.She could feel her resolve breaking, and she bit her lips, not wanting to break her resolve. “Let me go,” she repeated.Lincoln pulled her closer to him as he knew that it was a matter of time before she gave in to him. He kissed the back of her ear and he felt how she shuddered in his arms.Her breathing became heavier, and he heard her heartbeat increase. “I’m truly sorry for all I have done,” Lincoln apologized softly, and Quinn felt her heart melt. Tears immediately formed, and she blinked as she didn’t want to cry. She didn’t want Lincoln to see her at her lowest again.She didn’t want him to know that he still affected her greatly; that she still loved him. Lincoln gently turned her to face him as he wanted to see her face. He cupped her cheeks and rested his head on her
Quinn tried her very best to hate the man, but she just was unable to do so. No matter how many mistakes he made, her stupid heart refused to let go of him.He was her mate, the man to whom she had unknowingly given a piece of her heart to. She would always love him regardless of how many mistakes he made, and now was one of those times which proved it.Despite her being his mate, he had the audacity to bring another girl into their home, knowing full well that she would be beyond hurt. Just how heartless was this mate of hers? And she knew she would still forgive him for this slap to her face. ‘Gosh, I’m such a fool for loving such a cruel man like him,’ she muttered to herself as she headed to his room to stop whatever was happening between her mate and that woman.On getting to Lincoln’s room, she didn’t even bother to knock as she barged into the room. “How dare you try to bring another woman into your bed while I’m still alive,” she yelled in anger.She was expecting to see Linc
“What do you think? That I will just forgive you?It doesn’t work that way Lincoln Maverick” She wiped her tears with the back of her hand, then pushed Lincoln away with all the strength she could muster “I won’t have anything against you, I will gladly be your Luna and give you all that you deserve if you can turn back the hands of time and reverse killing my father,” she said.She pushed the door of her room, which was slightly opened aside, then walked into the room.She pushed the door locked that she had to check if the door was about to fall out due to the loud sound.On seeing that nothing had happened to the door, she locked the door from the inside, then slowly crouched on her knees.She kept sobbing quietly until she heard a door jammed close, signifying Lincoln had gone back to his room.“Dad, what would you want me to do at this moment? Am confused. One moment I have forgiven him, then the next moment, the whole memory keeps flooding back and making me change my mind abou
Quinn, stood at the door as she didn't know of what to do, she kept mumbling prayers for Liam or Zayne to come to her rescue.The most confusing thing was that she did not know if he was happy or angry“Is he angry that I marked him without his permission?Is he happy that we are mates now, ?” Her mind was in a daze but one thing she could not dare do, was to open the door when she wasn’t sure what her take on this whole thing was.“Quinn, I just need an explanation! Open this door, or I will break it down” Lincoln yelled at the top of his voice.His voice attracted the pack’s workers who hid to watch what was about to happen while some, decided to go call the beta and gamma to help sort out the situation.“You think locking yourself in that room, will save your ass,” his laughter echoed “No, darling it wouldn’t save you from me never.You did this to my body, I almost lost my life, and before I woke, you placed your sticking teeth on my flesh and marked me. You will pay dearly for th
“Look, I don't know what is running through your mind, but listen, there is nothing going on between the Luna and me. It's an abomination, besides she is an alpha’s daughter and now the Luna of this pack but me, am a nobody, just a fighter who has nothing to his name so whatever it is that what you saw has imprinted in your head, you better get it off!” Mark shouted in a deep voice filled with intense warning.Lincoln was the alpha, and alphas are jealous and so protective of their mate and considering the mating consequence that has been making him fight with his younger brother, he was sure he would do the same thing his father did to the guard he was suspecting was having an affair with his mother, so he wasn't ready to face Lincoln's wrath not now, not ever.“And you think I will just believe that after seeing the way she hugged you?” Andrea asked, walking closer to him. His mouth was curved in a smile, but Mark was too focused on explaining Quinn was never stooping low to him tha
The room was scattered beyond recognition as though there was a fight that took place in the room.But seeing her things still in the room, she took a few steps into the room. The wardrobe, has been pushed back, looking as though there was no hole, besides it.“This place needs cleaning.” she nodded, then walked out of the room. She instructed one of the guards at Lincoln's door to get the cleaners, which he rushed out to do instantly.Moments later, a few girls arrived with brooms, Dustpan, mops, and buckets that Quinn knew they were among the cleaners.“I need this room ready before nightfall, is that possible” She gazed at them “Yes, in less than two hours, we will be done” one of the cleaners, who Quinn assumed to be the leader or more experienced than the others, answered, gazing at the wall clock she said “It's a few minutes past noon so by three, you can be in the room” “Okay,” Quinn said before walking out, so they will do their work.She walked back to Lincoln's room, then
“Mark?Starved?” she asked with so much disbelief.“Yes, I was told, the alpha had ordered that no one in the cells should be giving food” the guard responded.He had been worried about his friend Mark, but since the order was from the alpha, he couldn't dare disobey or do anything to help Mark as that would give him a great punishment or an instant death so on seeing Quinn trying to walk out, he summoned the courage to tell her as she was officially the pack’s Luna and her orders, were as powerful as Lincoln beside, Mark found himself in the cell because of her, so he was sure she would do something about it.“Am sorry if I did wrong for saying it,” he quickly added when Quinn was silent for some time.“N- no” Quinn stuttered “You didn't do something wrong in fact, I really appreciate you for that,” Quinn said sincerely.As she was lost of what to say, that was why she kept quiet.“I need to see him, he is in there because of me, and it's my responsibility to make sure he is taken ou
