Amanda As I stood there, fists clenched and eyes burning with anger, I knew deep down that I was being consumed by my own rage. Every fiber of my being screamed for vengeance against Zane. The betrayal, the hurt, the sheer audacity of his actions—they all swirled within me, fueling a tempest of emotions that threatened to drown out reason.But even as I prepared to lash out, a voice inside me whispered a warning. I knew I shouldn't react this way. I knew that giving in to the urge for violence would only lead to more pain, more regret. Yet, the desire for retribution was overpowering, like a wildfire raging out of control.Just as I was about to unleash the first blow, a gentle yet firm grip enveloped my hands. Startled, I looked up to see Gamma Beatrice standing before me, her eyes filled with concern and understanding. "Amanda," she said softly, "he's not worth it."Her words pierced through the haze of my fury, cutting through the chaos within me with a clarity that was both soot
Amanda“So did you succeed?” Alex asked.At the last minute, I had instructed my men to go release him, seeing that he had no use in the isolation space I had kept him in and as he walked toward me at that moment, a smirk on his face, I wished desperately that I could just slap the living daylights out of him.This wasn’t the time for that, I knew but with each moment that passed, I was getting increasingly more irritated because I didn't think that he would ever disrespect me like this.“Sit down,” I snapped.I had discovered something yesterday from my encounter with Zane, something that I had failed to notice ever since and I was quite angry with myself on the reason why I hadn't discovered that since but now, I wasn't going to allow this to pass me by. The earlier I confronted him about it, the better for me and by extension, all of us.“What’s going on?” Gamma Beatrice asked, walking in at that moment.There was a look on her face that told me that she completely had no idea what
ZaneI remember vividly the moment Amanda stormed into my pack territory with a fire in her eyes that could rival the sun's intensity. Her presence alone sent a shiver down my spine, a foreboding sense of impending doom creeping over me. I knew, deep down, that she was furious with me, and whatever anger she harbored was not to be taken lightly. It was as if a storm cloud had descended upon us, and I was the unfortunate target of its wrath.As the days passed, I couldn't shake the feeling of impending confrontation. Every rustle of the leaves, every distant sound, seemed to herald her return and when she did come back, I knew it was only a matter of time before she sought me out. I could almost feel the weight of her gaze, burning into me with unrelenting fury. It was as if she had a score to settle, and I was the unwilling participant in her twisted game of vengeance.“What have I done?” I muttered.I found myself constantly looking over my shoulder, expecting her to leap out from th
Amanda“What do you want to do about Alex?” Beatrice asked.I looked up from the food I was eating, taking a sip of my drink even as I thought about what she had said. On one hand, I could just banish him and let him leave but on the other hand, I knew that doing that wouldn’t help the situation because for him to be out there, meant that Zane could get that information and in turn use it against us by claiming Alex by his side.When it came to that, I knew that Zane could play really dirty and I wasn't about to have Alex fall into his trap because if that ever happened, it would be so disastrous that we might never be able to recover from it.“I really don’t know but I guess I have to watch him for a while and see what I can do about him. You know, when I'm handling situations like this, I need to be very careful." I said.“I really don’t know how he turned into the person he is today. I mean, it's one thing to talk to him and another thing to chide him but right now, I don't even kn
Amanda “Don’t leave, I want to see you.” I said to him,I didn’t need to explain any further even as understanding dawned on him. Together, we made our way towards the small private hall where we couldn’t be disturbed."Why, Marcus?" I demanded, my voice laced with frustration and confusion. "Why didn't you go through with it? We had a plan, and you backed out at the last moment. Do you realize what this means for us?"Marcus, ever confident, closed the distance between us with measured steps. His gaze bore into mine, unwavering despite my intense scrutiny. I could feel his hands, warm and steady, as they found their way around my waist, a gesture that both comforted and unsettled me."Amanda," he began, his voice low and tinged with a hint of defiance, "I did what I thought was best for both of us."I couldn't hide my disbelief. "Protecting me? Is that what you call it?" I retorted, my tone sharp. "By not following through with our plan, you've put us at risk. Zane won't take this
Amanda “I think you should be really careful with Marcus,” Beatrice said to me one day as I walked into the main hall for our weekly meetings.Time was running out but still, there was no word yet from Sarah and I was beginning to wonder if she was even alive to begin with but one thing I knew was that she was because if she wasn’t, my spies would have informed me.“Why do you say that?” I asked her.“Isn’t it clear Alpha? Why do you think Marcus just had this sudden growing affection and likeness for you even as we are trying to deal with Zane and his pack. If you ask me, it's all too convenient and I hate to tell you that he might actually be fooling you.” she said.There was a conviction in her words that scared me because I didn't want to think that that was the reality.“I don’t know…” I muttered.I was even confused as I didn't even know what to think anymore. I couldn’t deny the fact that I was already growing feelings for Marcus, that was already certain but at the same time,
Amanda As I paced back and forth in the alpha's den, my mind buzzed with a flurry of thoughts, each one more tumultuous than the last. The urgency of finding Alex pulsed through me like a drumbeat, driving me to the brink of impatience. How could he have disappeared without a trace? Was there something more profound at play here, something sinister lurking beneath the surface?With each step, I scanned the room, my eyes darting from one corner to the next, searching for any clue that might shed light on his sudden disappearance. The scent of his presence lingered in the air, a faint whisper of familiarity that taunted me with its elusiveness."Any sign of him yet?" I asked, my voice laced with frustration, as I turned to face one of my pack members who had just returned from a scouting mission.The pack members shook their heads, their expressions grim. "Nothing. We've combed through the woods, but there's no trace of him anywhere."I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms
Amanda As Marcus tried to dissuade me, his words fell on deaf ears. I couldn't just sit back and do nothing while Alex, my Beta, was out there somewhere, potentially in danger. "I appreciate your concern, Marcus, but I can't ignore this," I replied firmly, my gaze unwavering despite the worry etched on his face. "I have to find Alex, no matter what it takes."With determination driving me forward, I gathered my men, each one ready and willing to follow me into the unknown depths of the forest. We ventured forth, the canopy above casting dappled shadows on the forest floor as we treaded carefully, every rustle of leaves and snap of twigs echoing through the silent woods.Despite the urgency of our mission, a gnawing sense of unease settled in the pit of my stomach. It was as though the very air around us was charged with tension, a feeling that grew stronger with each step we took. "Keep your senses sharp, everyone," I instructed, my voice low but firm as I scanned our surroundings
AmandaThe moon hung low in the sky, casting an eerie glow over the battlefield. I stood at the edge of the clearing, my heart pounding in my chest. The air was thick with tension, and every nerve in my body screamed at me to run, to hide, to escape but I couldn't. This was it. The final showdown between me and Zane. There was no turning back now. I had to face him, to confront the man who had taken everything from me. I had to beat him once and for all.I clenched my fists, feeling the rough bark of the tree behind me digging into my back. I had to steady myself, to focus. The memory of Zane's betrayal burned in my mind, fueling my resolve. He had taken my family, my friends, and my home. He had left me with nothing but a burning desire for revenge. And now, it was time to make him pay."I know you're out there, Amanda," Zane's voice cut through the silence like a knife. I tensed, my eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of movement. "There's no point in hiding. Come out and face m
ZaneAs I faced Amanda, I couldn’t help but marvel at the fierce determination that burned in her eyes. She moved with an intensity that caught me off guard, each strike delivered with a force that spoke volumes about her resolve. I had underestimated her, and now, as I struggled to keep up with her relentless attacks, I realized just how formidable she truly was."Is this all you’ve got, Zane?" Amanda taunted, her voice a mix of anger and sorrow. "Did you really think you could get away with killing Tiana?"I blocked her punch, feeling the impact reverberate through my arm. "It wasn’t personal, Amanda. You know how this world works."Her eyes narrowed, and she swung her leg in a swift arc, aiming for my head. I barely ducked in time, the air whistling as her kick missed its mark by inches. "Not personal? She was my sister, you bastard! You took her from me!"I couldn’t deny the truth of her words. Tiana had been Amanda’s estranged sister, and my actions had set off a chain of events
AmandaThe air was thick with anticipation, the kind that made your skin prickle and your senses heighten to an almost unbearable degree. I could feel it deep within me, an unshakeable certainty that Zane, with all his malice and wickedness, was heading towards our pack. This wasn't just a gut feeling; it was as if every fiber of my being was screaming out in warning. The battle we had both started long ago was far from over, and I knew that he was coming to finish it. My breath hitched as I considered the implications. Zane was not just a formidable opponent; he was ruthless and relentless, qualities that made him even more dangerous."Get ready!" I barked, my voice carrying the urgency of the situation. The warriors of my pack, loyal and unwavering, moved with swift precision. They knew what was at stake. "We cannot let him win. Not this time." My heart pounded as I watched them prepare, each one a crucial part of the defense that stood between Zane and our survival.Beatrice, my
Amanda As I lay on the cold, hard ground, my vision blurred and the sounds around me dulled, I fought to stay conscious. Each breath was a struggle, each inhale and exhale a battle against the pain that radiated from my stomach. It felt like I had been stabbed, a searing, sharp agony that consumed my entire being. My hand instinctively pressed against the wound, but I couldn't feel any blood, just an overwhelming emptiness. A hollow sensation that told me something, or someone, had been taken away from me."Beatrice," I gasped, my voice barely a whisper. The pain was so intense that it was hard to form words, but I knew I had to communicate what I was feeling. Beatrice was crouched beside me, her face a mask of concern and determination. Her hands moved swiftly, checking my injuries, trying to stabilize me."Amanda, hold on," Beatrice urged, her voice steady but laced with urgency. "You're going to be okay. Just stay with me.""No," I managed to croak out, shaking my head slightly.
TianaI stood on the balcony, my fingers clutching the cold stone railing. The moon cast a pale glow over the kingdom, a kingdom that was going into chaos because of my husband's actions. Zane, the man I had once loved, the man I had pledged my life to, was now a tyrant, causing havoc and destruction wherever he went. I had watched in horror as his ambitions grew darker and more twisted, and now I knew I had to stop him before it was too late.“This wasn’t what I bargained for? Why did he suddenly turn this way? I muttered.I turned away from the balcony and paced back into the chamber, my mind racing. I couldn't believe how far Zane had fallen. When we married, he was charming and full of dreams even though it was one to make my sister suffer but those dreams had turned into nightmares for our people. He had declared war on Amanda and her pack, accusing them of treachery without a shred of evidence. I knew Amanda and I was certain she was innocent. Zane's vendetta against her was pe
ZaneThe power coursing through me was intoxicating, a heady rush that made every nerve tingle with a sense of invincibility. I stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the world that now seemed so small, so manageable. It was hard to believe that not long ago, I was just another face in the crowd, another insignificant speck in the grand tapestry of existence. But now? Now I was a god, or at least something very close to it."Zane, you have to be careful," I murmured to myself, the wind carrying my voice away. I knew I was right. This power, this incredible, unearthly strength, it was a gift but it was also a curse if I didn't handle it correctly. No one could know the source of my abilities. If they did, they could find a way to strip them from me, to use them against me and I couldn't allow that. Not now, not ever."Zane," a voice called from behind, and I turned to see Riley approaching, her expression a mix of concern and curiosity. She was one of the few who had seen the
BeatriceAs soon as Zane broke free from the binds we had put him in, I knew we were in for total chaos. I watched from a corner, my heart pounding in my chest, unable to tear my eyes away from the scene unfolding before me. It was surreal, like something out of a nightmare. Zane had turned into something unrecognizable—a monster. His muscles bulged, his eyes glowed with a malevolent light, and an aura of raw power radiated from him. We had underestimated him, and now we were paying the price.Amanda stood bravely before him, her stance strong and determined. I could see the tension in her body, the resolve in her eyes. "Zane, you don't have to do this," she pleaded, her voice steady despite the obvious danger. "We can help you. Whatever you're going through, we can find a way to fix it."But Zane only laughed, a sound that sent chills down my spine. "Help me? You think you can help me?" he sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "I don't need your help, Amanda. I don't need any
Amanda Seeing Tiana within my pack after what we’ve promised ourselves was something I didn't expect. I mean, i expected to see her after the battle was over but now, seeing her now just told me that she and Zane might have had a plan to help him escape because i didn’t really see any reason why she was here. It just didn’t make sense.“What do you want?” I said, icily.There was tension in the area, that much I could tell. What I hated at that moment was not knowing the plan that she and Zane had. It made me mad because I knew that she didn’t just come here on her own volition, there was definitely something going on and I wanted nothing more than to know what it was. Tiana remained silent like i wasn’t talking to her which made me mad because it just meant that she didn’t regard me at all and she hadn’t put what was between us behind her.“For the last time Tiana, what do you want?” I asked again.I was slowly losing my patience and I knew that I would lose it if she didn’t tell me
ZaneI didn’t know whether to call it luck or being blessed but if there was one thing i knew, it was that things somehow worked in my favor. It had only been a stroke of luck when Amanda was called away and by no other person but my wife. Now, alone in the dank, dark place she had put me in, I knew I needed to do everything possible to free myself or else, when she came back, I would find it much worse.The last thing i wanted to be was to be Amanda’s bait, i was far stronger and bigger than her and i had the advantage but still, i knew i shouldn’t forget that she was an Alpha, far more stronger than any other normal wolf and it would be a hard time fighting her off but i knew that i could do it especially since i was very determined.“That won’t be easy Zane, stop fooling yourself.” I sighed.Amanda had made sure that I was tied so tightly that I had no room for escape. If i didn’t know better, i would have said that she knew i would try to escape hence the reason for treating me th
