One Luna, Three Hated Alphas 145
NIKKI. I pace about in the large compound, looking for anything that catches my fancy. You may want to give me my tag as jobless and restless and jumbled, I more than deserve it at this moment. Thoroughly, I scan through the arena, scouting for the slightest clue. Maybe the valuables or gossip from the servants or even me eavesdropping on the alphas. But right now, they will be busy filling all of Aaliyah’s holes up, and a good-for-nothing moan will be the only result of my effort, should I attempt to. On seeing me, two guards keep shut almost immediately. I don't move, rather I look at them squarely, already busted. I feel so reduced and desperate and the truth is that I don't give a shit. Aware that they would grow cold on me at the very sight of me, I don't just burst in on them. I walk down the corridor, taking a wild guess that servants would be at the entrance, guards or maids, as long as I get what I want from their extracurricular activities; gossip. I begin to stroll gen

NIKKI I feel like a piece of shit, like a foolish person that only sees what they want them to see and enjoys the name 'best friend’ in public and a 'clown’ in private. I feel used and everything is improper. For long minutes, I sit on the bed motionless. No willpower to get my ass off the bed and their pack. Knowing that the guards saw me, they will break it to Aaliyah and the three alphas soon. Even though it's too early in the morning, I can figure my way out. I don't need their guards or carriage or help. I will go to the pack’s inn and take refuge there before I get ready for my next movement. Damn! I cuss in my head, ramming my palm on my thigh and yelling from the torment. This is not the first nor the second time I get treated like an option. But this will be the last time I will give them an option. Never ever again. In haste, I throw my bag on the bed and angrily begin to stuff it with the belongings I had already brought out to use, feeling so comfortable and at home.

AALIYAH I didn't mean to say it...didn't want to say it. At least not in this way and manner and certainly not now that my plan is yet to mature. I didn't know how to handle this in the spur of the moment...with her playing this emotional card. I had to spill. On realization that I just made the worst decision of my life, I sit on the bed and sob. I sob, not because I miss my baby, but because I’m about to fail him for the second time. What happens to only telling her what I want and only showing her what I tell?Nikki on the other hand is too frozen to care in the world what is happening to me at the moment. She seems more taken aback like she wasn't expecting such news, not even in her wildest dream and certainly not to her dearest baby. "Is this some sort of joke? Like, don't even care to play a fast one on me and expect me to believe the crap like some dumb...”"Quit it. Fucking quit being self-absorbed. And you think I care so much about riling you up that I would put the joke

AALIYAH. I stand up from the bed, both riled up and pissed. Why the fuck is she acting like my papa or a shrink? What's with all this mind-reading and acting smarter? I get that she's smart, scratch that, the smarter one amongst all three of us, I was the wildest, and Linda, most cunning. But right now, it would actually do us both a favour is she sits this one out. I don't respond. Rather, I remain mute, and trembling from anger, not because I’m scared of her fuss, but instead, because I let out so much that I can afford, and slowly, I can see the smoke of my plans setting ablaze and smell it like a sacred incense. Still agitated, I sigh. "Aaliyah, what does she want?" Her voice is low but firm and I can feel her eyes lurking around my fidgeting frame. And it only means one thing, maybe two. First, she knows that I’m lying to her goddamn face, and second, I’m lying again even though she's yet to have facts. “Nikki, I don't know what you're expecting from me.” "The truth!

NIKKI. I'm not certain I heard right. I so need her to speak up, and repeat whatever the heck she said. But there's silence, no words of disclaimer after that, just silence... Icy and wrecking silence. And then she's gone. In less than an hour, I've heard unimaginable things... Things I badly wish I never heard but ain't no freaking way of becoming innocent again. I watch her walk away sobbing like a child. I can only imagine the depth of her trauma and sympathize with her but not feel it the way she does. First her baby and now her mates? To worsen it, all three of them? Now, that's too much of a burden. I open my mouth to yell her name and just how easy it opens, it closes on its accord. Words fail me, my muscles are flaccid, and I can't go after her. Was she joking? Is there more spilling to be done? If she was, why is she then investing her energy in getting treasures stocked up like it's the actual ransom? Is this some sort of a pity party soliciting show? I gasp, exhau

NIKKI “Nikki, please, would you?” she sighs. "I have less than five days, please don't complicate things for me, lady simplicity.”A deadly silence follows afterwards. It lingers for the longest, and there's not a single sign of it coming to an end, not anytime soon. “At least, let me in. Please.” I break the silence, the thumping of my heart so loud, I bet she could hear it from the other end. “This is the closest you can get to me on this matter.” She sighs. “At least let's have a heartfelt conversation.” I plead. "You never can tell how much we would accomplish.”"Jeez, Nikki, sit this one out. If you don't care about me so much, then how about baby Hendrix, your godson? We can't disrupt the whole process...”"We won't if we do the right thing.” I try to sound convincing even though I can't believe my lies. “There's nothing right about any of this, his abduction, the ransom, my life, all of it.”"You can't let her make you feel like shit, you...”"Okay, that's it. I'm done. Yo

CHRIS It all feels like a dream, she is here one minute and out the next. All my life, I've spent it alone, defending the lack alone, being a one-man army and a freaking loner. And when Wild Crest pack met its ruins, I lived a little, had fun and women and sex, knowing that I may be the next victim of the cruel soldiers. But then Aaliyah walked back in with her mates to save us. She saved the pack and saved me from loneliness. One thing I can't stop thanking her for. And now? I messed up like I always do. I started this journey of being an alpha with Nikki, She was there at my coronation, right by my side and when I switched to the beast in me, she ran off, but not beyond arm's length. On that cold and crazy night, she gave me her shoulder and her body, and her mind. She gave me every freaking thing! I built this pack from ashes with her help, and her wisdom even though she was no expert. She gave this pack a reason to believe in my dreams and words. She gave me her time and her

CHRIS The shocked look on the elders’ faces, is enough to make me stop the madness immediately, but I’m far too gone to yield to its control. If the Beta were here, he would disapprove of such an insult and he might withdraw right there and then. Well, let's say all that matters most to me is my Luna, right by my side where she belongs. So, the pack can go ahead and displace me as their Alpha, that's if they can... Not like I bother. “Alpha Chris, you need to calm down for a moment and hear us out.” The third elder suggests, speaking up for the first time since arrival.I look at him keenly, like no one just spoke. My non-verbal cues doing the most. For a while, he maintains eye contact, pain evident in his gaze, before he looks away and faces down out of respect for their alpha. “Well, there's nothing rational what's going on here as we speak. So, there will be no need to beat about and just call it a day.” "We're just to decide on a stand, all that we've done since arrival is st

One Luna, Three Hated Alphas Epilogue
THIRD PERSON’S POV. By nightfall, the alphas, Aaliyah and Nikki ride in a carriage, while the warriors of Orlando match quietly to the border of Moon Howlers pack. It takes them long hours to arrive at the spot and the place is as quiet and deserted as can be. The only presumptive sign was the sacks of sand heaped on themselves to form a shield. Nikki takes the lead and directs them to the shelter at the secluded spot, very well hidden from the border. The three alphas replace her, with Aaliyah by the side, ready to rescue her baby once they burst in. Fortunately, the door is made of ancient wood that's already rotting away and the hinges are half gone. In a silent count of three, they kick the door down in unison and rush in. The noise sends Shelly and Chris flying and baby Hendrix crying from a disrupted sleep. Shelly instantly rushes towards the baby, to use him as bait and protect herself. But before she gets to him, Hudson is swift to throw a pocket knife in her directi

THIRD PERSON’S POV Nikki arrives at the pack house tired and weak. Her dress is torn in some places, with her skin bruised from falls and scratches from wild plants. Her feet are the worst, it look so dirty like she trekked in gutters and pits. The door opens with the guards signalling the others to call Lady Aaliyah and the alphas. “Welcome, lady Nikki.” The guard by the hate greets as Nikki walks in, heading towards the house. He looks out for insiders and satisfied none is forthcoming, he jams the door and closes it. Aaliyah rushes down and meets Nikki dragging her feet like a child, with her muddy footsteps evidence of her traces. "Nikki darling, what happened to you?” she holds her firm, not minding that she both looks and smells horrible. Rather, Nikki begins to sob. Hot tears burn her cheeks as she keeps sobbing. "Go ready her bath." Aaliyah orders a maid who takes to her heels immediately. When they arrive in Nikki's room, Aaliyah dismisses the maids, strips her frien

AALIYAH. The night has me rolling recklessly on the bed. I keep counting every second, down to noon. With each passing minute, the promise of having my baby by my side becomes clearer, and the risk of dragging the three alpha there more scary. Curiosity eats me deep, the need to know the location burns hotter than any desire. And somehow, I'm glad that Nikki is away, for reasons best known to herself. It's barely 11:45 pm, and the night draws on, much longer than expected. Frustrated, I sit up, still lost in my thoughts. Unable to sleep, I wear my robe and go to the gate. The servants are half asleep and one gasps when he finally wakes up to see me before him.“Good evening, my lady.” He wipes the last of sleep off his eyes. “Evening. I'm expecting a letter tomorrow, I don’t know when it's coming, but please, stay off the gate to not scare anyone away.” I want. I'm scared of the consequences if we nab one of them. “Alright, ma.” He assures. I go up, and happy that nothing would

NIKKI. I remain quiet for a while, and totally immobile. "I bet I heard something.” Shelly insists. My breath is almost on hold, as I struggle to fathom what is behind me. At this point, I didn't care much about being busted or punished or yelled at... I just didn't care at all. It's more like life is playing a trick on me. All along, he has something to do with Shelly. Why then was he always riled up when I mentioned her name or went to seek for her welfare? Why then did he make it seem like she is the monster? Not like right now she is any short of it. How low Chris has reduced me to. Hot tears burn my cheeks and I let it flow slowly as I remain numb for the longest. Footsteps approach, and I find myself creeping like a child away from the window, crawling and crying and praying I don't meet one of them. This is indeed a risk, and I honestly can't tell how much it's worth, because it leaves me mentally insane. The window opens, and I’m already on the other side, crying my lun

NIKKI. The box I am in lifts from the ground halfway and then drops. I hear the faint grunting of a lady, I suppose it's the maid. It stops soon after the box returns to the ground. It goes up again, and then levels flat on the ground. "Is it that heavy? Try harder, Alpha Chris will soon be on our necks.” A male voice pleads. Seeing what Chris did to the poor driver, I feel sorry for him, hoping he doesn't take the fall yet again. "It surely is heavy, I bet you know. Please, you would need to seek the help of your fellow. This is the best I can go.” "Jeez, you ladies, and bailing out on the slightest hardship.” He sighs. Somehow, I'm silently laughing inside, thinking to myself that these two have some chemistry. Because this argument can't be about my weight, a petite lady like myself that Chris scoops at will. “I don't know what you mean, but I can't do this. Even if I did, I wouldn't go beyond the corridor, and I would end up breaking my back.” "So?" He lifts up his

NIKKI We ride pass the market, with very few people and it's almost as quiet as a graveyard. It's quite early, and I won't fault them for being in bed, either sleeping to their death or cuddling in the arms of their lover. And I don't have the luxury to afford any, so yeah, I’m busy studying their lives and praying mine doesn't fall apart. Down from the central areas to the outskirts, we journey quietly and it takes long hours to get out of Orlando pack. Such a powerful pack, Aaliyah is lucky. I sigh. It's still very early in the morning, the sun is yet to rise fully and I can barely appreciate the landscape, my little way of freeing my mind and not exploding. It takes very long hours before we arrive at Wild Crest pack’s border. When we get closer to the main house, I ask the rider to stop. I take out a pair of black pants from my bag, bathed in a random servant’s perfume, to go undetected by Chris. Taking off his hoodie, I sniff it for the last time and throw on a baggy polo. I

NIKKI.Still in shock and unsure of what to believe, I decide to confront Chris, and doing it over a letter, would mean him denying it or nothing to him at all. Of a truth, I’m done with this sham of a union, but for the longest that he received me, I desperately need an explanation. And if she's wrong, there's a high possibility that I would give him a second chance to be a better mate. Either way, it's a win for me. I proceed to pack my back, not all of it, just a few things I would need if I decide to remain in Wild Crest pack for a few more days. Ready, I walk out of my room, tightly clad in a big hoodie, to prevent the cold. Chris’ hoodie. It's one of the possession I stole, sniffing it every damn minute I think of him. I'm almost at the hate when I halt. I'm yet to tell Aaliyah. Do I still want to make it a secret? Yes. But she would make a big fuss if I didn't tell her a good reason for my sudden departure. She only needs to be briefly informed. Besides, the second letter

SHELLY. He went on and on until I had no more strength to continue. I simply quake in beneath him and moan for mercy, the same mercy I asked him to never grant me. And as he promised from the onset, he remains firm in his words. He bends me over, switching positions like a messed-up child and bringing me to tears. After a while, he lets me be, but I’m certain it isn't because he's exhausted. He settles on the floor and levels my naked skin on himself, skin to skin, providing the best warmth and tender touches. I sniff his masculine scent that's now mixed with a fine blend of our juices in the cold night’s air. His sudor that's sweet smelling rather than a stench to me. Weak and satisfied but greedy regardless, I nestle like a baby in his arms. Just cuddling and mild romance would do, so long as I feel him on myself. His warmth is enough to keep me from the cold, and his muscles, were my shield from the wild. I rub on the bare of his arm, stroking my fingers along its length. Inde

SHELLY.Bored, I take a stroll around the premises, careful enough not to wander too far. Lady Agnes has gone home with Petian, leaving me alone with baby Hendrix like it's always been for almost two weeks now. The night is cold, and so is the weather, as a cool breeze kisses my skin, awakening goosebumps on my bare flesh. This isn't the safest place, but I've not dismissed Lady Agnes’ offer to send guards down here. I believe it shouldn't be a bother, because it would mean drawing much attention to what needed to be as discreet as imagined and you can't guarantee they won't spill. Plus, I've not seen a reason to want their help, besides, the plan is yet to ripen, and two days before the said date, I would accept her offer. Ready to retire for the night, I turn around to retrace my steps, when I see a huge frame in the dark, the dim night light is of little help. I take a step backward, two and then three, until I’m out of count. The huge frame keeps walking towards me, at the sam
