ALEXA

Somehow and to my surprise, the fresh air softly drifting around the garden and the whistling of birds managed to calm my nerves down. I made an effort to get my hair out of my face by tugging it behind my ear and smiling warmly at the maid who sat beside me on the long bench under a hefty and ancient looking tree.

“He hasn’t always been like this you know” she uttered, her words trailing at the end as if she had remembered something. Something that used to be very dear to her, something she cherished.

We were currently on about Levi and the disturbing moods he put himself and others around him into. She knew him and had worked for his family since he was a child so I assumed she knew what she was talking about.

“Whatever you mean by that? I hope you are not trying to justify his behavior. "I arched my brow in a challenging kind of way, getting rid of my hair in front of my face for the second time.

“No no of course not. I would never do that. Levi is going through a phase in li

    ALEXAI looked around the room in panic. I knew well that I left the card Zale had given me in my wardrobe and now it was nowhere to be found despite turning everything upside down. "Who could have taken the card?" I groaned in frustration as I fell back on my bed with the back of my hand covering my face. ***I couldn't think of who it might be but I greatly feared if it was actually Levi that got his hands on me. Thinking of that made chills run down my spine as I stood up again to look for it. I couldn't remember if I took it away from the wardrobe and placed it somewhere else. Levi, who is acting all angry, if he is the one who got it, he will most likely take his anger out on me again. I didn't want to ask anyone of the maids to help me search either. If Levi didn't take it and someone else did, the searching would call Levi's attention to it and I'll have to thoroughly explain what I was doing with Zale. I walked into the bathroom and as I sat in the bathtub, the thoughts r

    LEVII came to the split decision that something was in fact wrong, taking away the fact that she had been acting weird all day. Take away the fact that they choose to handle the situation with silence rather than voicing it out.But the situation of things at that moment was clear— Almost to the point that I needed no information to make it easier. It was easy to point out certain things at that moment for why she acted that way and top above it was the fact that she seemed totally messed up at the back of her mind, I couldn't say what the reason was or why but that was the case.While I would have been angry prior to this time in the past , I thought it was best I treated the entire issue a whole lot differently.As the minutes ticked, I tossed and turned on the bed, each minute that passed did so quietly right there in the midst of silence that filled the evening.Sleep was short-lived, perhaps underlying was a fear of closing my eyes from the fear that all these thoughts consumin

    ALEXA.A clock ticked. My heart sent out a wave of heartbeat that traveled the distance of my nerves in one heavy thud— Bu bum. Here I was almost going insane with an indecision that was leaving a distaste emanating from how long I had been in the position of faking a sleep that wasn't forthcoming.With one elbow on the bed rest I pushed myself up, how long was it before day break?An hour … Two? I wasn’t sure how long but something was building silently deep in my soul, and it wasn’t entirely from the fact that I couldn't find sleep or the atmosphere seemed tense and awkward.It was the fact that my heavy heartbeat was cutting through the quiet room now and then like a knife.I let out a sardonic breath, shaking my head as my jaw ticked —For some reason, I thought to myself why he was still delaying in making his decision.Was he expecting me to apologize?For a minute or two , I roamed the room after having a restless night. My night had been filled with the thought of what my fa

    LEVIThe sound of the wood filtered into my subconscious mind in sheer serenity, as it did I could feel the wind drift over the blue-black sky arched overhead dotted with twinkling stars.My eyes fluttered open and all I could feel was an agonizing pain at the side of my head. Details of the fall flashed across my mind as I looked round the ravine.It was all dark in here as the gray shadow of a cloud drifted slowly across the midnight sky. My chest was ricocheting with loud clattering heartbeats as I relied heavily on my hood night vision—I tried to move for the first time and a sharp pain from my ankle went straight to my brain as I let out a pain of anguish.That would take some time to heal… I thought to myself as I looked up at the sky that seemed farther. The night was extremely quiet. I wondered why the night had been void of the voice of the night. With every ticking seconds that pass all I felt was that dead night, the darkness that looked to consume every night life as th

    LEVII woke up the next my morning the same way I had slept, with my mind partly filled with the thought of her and the ankle ache.The bones had healed itself but there was still that slight pain perhaps to remind me about my ordeal, at the moment I ran my mind through what i had planned on for the day.I was still deep In thought when a knock came from the door and Mike walked in making his way straight to the window."Good morning, Alpha." He pulled both sides of the curtains letting in sun rays into the room.I groaned and shielded my eyes from the sun. "What are you doing?""Get up man , today is a long day and it is noon already.""Noon!" I thought to myself as I jolted to my feet.He was right, it was noon. I was still feeling skeptical about wanting to start my day when another knock was heard.Mike helped with the door while I got dressed. "You slept in late?" He questioned.I turned back to where he was and shook my head affirmatively, at the back of my mid was still the mem

    ALEXA There is no better time to apologize to Levi than now —The thought filled my mind as I walked up to his door.The castle was in a merry state after the news got around that he was able to pull the deal. Stopping at his door, I could feel my heart hammer against my ribcage as I walked down to Levi's study. I knew well that he was not going to spare me one bit because he hated Zale and I was planning on escaping through Zale. He would know that was my plan because I have no interaction with someone who can piss him off, unless I want to get out of his grip. I hesitated in each step I took on the rugged floor but I soon found myself in front of the door leading into Levi's study. I lifted my hand to knock and I hesitated again. What if the first thing he does is hit me or something. I thought."Just knock and go in. You know he would never actually raise his hand and hit you. He most probably will yell and almost if you provoke him, but all he will punish you but not kill you,

    LEVI Watching her leave angrily was something I should have gotten used to over the past week but something seemed different this one time, maybe because it struck a nerve or because she had stopped briefly at the door to run a hand over her belly.Whatever it was, this one time really felt different. It was almost as if guilt was creeping over me slowly leaving an icily feeling behind in its wake.I stared at the door for a while, one part of me wanted to after her; but another part reminded me that I was no longer that man.Of course coming to that conclusion came with sacrifices,one of which was totally ignoring not just her but any other things in my life that didn't have any significant meaning.I could literally feel my wolf stirring at this fact alone, I shut my eyes trying to numb the feeling but the more I did the more I felt a bit restless."Now what?" This time I was speaking to rather nothing significant but that tiny voice in my vein that keeps popping up.A knock sounde

    ALEXAThe Serenity of the room, the peace that hovered round, the frequent ticking of the clock, the silence—Of all these things, my thoughts had a flip through, none mattered in this chaos that was settling in my mind. The fact remained that I had made up my mind, and at the moment it didn't look like I'd let anything try convincing me less.I had a lot of things on my sleeve planned up and most important of it all was trying to get away from here. The fact thàt there is someone as confused as Levi left me so dumbfounded, it left my mind blank without word's to say.One moment he was hot and his warmth is so engulfing that it could fill up my soul right to the brim, and the next moment he is all cold and—fuck!I didn't have a mental picture to paint how dismayed I felt about this man.At the moment, I was trying all I could to stay sane. The more my mind reflected on the entire situation, the more it left a twist in my mind.A bitter twist that didn't look like it would end anytim

    LEVII shifted a little in my chair, impatient for the council meeting to get to the stage I had been dreaming about all these days. I looked around at all the pack members seated in the council chamber. All eyes were trained on the front of the room, at the round table where the men who would give fair judgment on who was to become Alpha, sat. I was not the only one stealing glances around the room. Zale, who was a claimant of the Alpha title sat at the end of the table also, opposite from me. It was obvious that he was in a state of barely suppressed excitement. His eyes met mine, and he smirked before looking away. I hid a grin. He was in for a shock even though he did not know it yet. There was a loud thump that echoed around the room. Conversation ceased immediately. One of the chief council members, the one with a grizzled beard slowly got to his feet. "Brothers of the pack," he called in a carrying voice. "You all know why we are here, to decide on who becomes the true Alpha

    LEVI"It's your son, I can't find him anywhere!" Mia fidgeted, her eyes sunken with fear..I immediately stood up from my chair in a panicked state."Where was the last place you saw him?"I asked Mia, barrelling past her."In his room,I went downstairs to get myself a drink and answer a few calls then came back to find him gone." Mia rambled, following closely behind me just as panicked as I was.I tried to calm myself as I practically ran to the security room…I was still pissed about finding out that Zale was responsible for my father's death and now this!I needed to focus. There was no way my son could just disappear without a trace.I took in a deep breath as I got to the security room and sat down. I began to surf through the security footage, trying to calm my racing heart.Mia was right by my side, scanning the footage from between one hour ago and now. I could practically hear her heart beating her chest. She was afraid and normal I'd comfort her but I was just as panicked as

    ALEXA As soon as I stepped into the restaurant, I spotted Zale seated at a table at the rear of the restaurant, fidgeting and checking his watch. He looked around, but did not spot me at the entrance, as a couple of people were leaving then, blocking his view of me. He was obviously eager to have the ring in his possession, even though I was still five minutes early for our scheduled meeting. "Hi, Zale," I said as I lowered myself into the chair next to him. He started a little, having been engrossed in checking his wristwatch in what had to be the umpteenth time. "Alexa." His face split into a wide grin. His eyes danced with barely concealed excitement. "Just who I've been expecting. It's good to see you." He looked me over, his gaze lingering on the fitted dress I wore. "You look really good... Better than you looked at our last meeting."I shrugged. "I guess it's the satisfaction of taking my own pound of flesh.""Of course. Of course. I like the way you think. Only hypocrites

    LEVIIt was night time and Alexa was getting ready to go over to Zale's to hand him the fake ring.Despite the simplicity of the plan, I couldn't help but to be worried about her and the plan. I wasn't one to scare easily but when it came to Alexa's safety, I was.I watched her through the window as she walked towards the car that was to take her over to Zale 's place. I still didn't like the idea of her meeting him but in order for us to be able to trick him, she had to.The starless sky was not helping the niggling feeling I had at the back of mind either. I know why but I felt really off about the plan. Alexa had told me I was being paranoid when I had mentioned my concerns to her earlier and I had taken it as the reason but right now I wasn't so sure.As if she could sense my eyes on her, Alexa turned around and our eyes locked through the window and she frowned as she noticed the worry in my eyes.She tore her eyes off mine and quickly glanced at the driver to say something I cou

    LEVII walked towards Mike who was making his way towards me.'How'd it go?’ I have a question. He heaves a breath and buries his hand in his hair, “Nothing out of the ordinary really,” he starts, leaning against a nearby wall, “They just went on and on about who the new alpha is going to be and how the choice is going to be made this year. Apparently they’re making special efforts to ensure it isn’t the same as the previous year.” He explains and I nod in understanding.“Makes sense. Did they mention who exactly who the competitors this year are?” I asked, taking the spot beside him.“To be honest, it wasn’t really clear, they didn’t state it plainly,” He scratches the back of his head, an apology in his eyes, “They however mentioned the top two contenders are you and Zale.” He finishes, his gaze studious.“That’s…good?” I muss, my hand rubbing against my chin, an impulse I had picked from Alexa. “And the supporters? Enemies?”“We actually have quite a number of people on our side,

    ALEXAI told Mia about Levi's text and we drove to Levi's office. The traffic was on my side. It was light and we got to the office in record time. As soon as I pulled in front of the building, I looked into the rearview mirror, schooling my expression into the expected one of fury. Mia waited in the car. I marched past the smiling doorman, completely ignoring his greetings. The other staff scurried out of the way when I directed my scowl at them. "Where is he? Levi," I demanded of the receptionist. "He's upstairs," she said, wide eyed with surprise. "Up in the conference room."Without another word, I went upstairs, already muttering angrily to myself long before I spotted Levi. He stood with his back to the wall, sulkily regarding people who passed by him. "There you are, you piece of shit!" I screeched as loudly as I could. I pointed an accusing finger at him as I marched towards him. As I had hoped, every eye in the corridor became fixed on me. Levi gaped at me, his expressio

    LEVIMy attention was half on what Mike was saying. I was lost in thought, thinking about what Mia had told me. It had come as a shock to realize that Mia had been under Ryan's thumb all this while, doing his bidding. I was grateful for whatever lucky chance had made Alexa eavesdrop and hear Mia's conversation. The sound of my phone ringing brought me out of my reverie. I started a little. "Alexa's calling," Mike said with a glance at my phone which lay between us. I grunted, picked up quickly. "I'm listening," I said as soon as I picked up the call. Mike leaned forward to talk to the driver, and I used that opportunity to shift a little to the far side of the car. This was not a conversation I wanted him to overhear. "You already left the house," remarked Alexa."Yes," I responded."I hope you still remember the plan.""Yes."There was a brief pause. Her tone was somewhat annoyed when she said, "Why are you answering me in monosyllables?" I swallowed, racking my brains for the b

    ALEXA"Ryan?” I ask, trying to contain my anger.Mia’s stares at the flower arrangements behind me unwilling to meet my gaze.“I believe I asked you a question Mia. Why the hell would you do this to Levi?” “Answer me!” I snap.Mia fiddles with the hem of her dress, she opens her mouth to speak but no words come out. Alexa pulls her by the arm into an empty changing room, “Now we have some privacy. You better start talking.”Mia paced about the tiny cubicle. “I’m sorry.” “You’re sorry?” No no no! We haven’t gotten to that part yet.”“This is the part where you give me a damn explanation for why you’re stealing from your own brother.”“I..I don’t know. I just.. I mean its Ryan” Mia stutters,“I’m racking my brain searching hard for a good enough reason but nothing except its Ryan.” She huffs, “I never know how to act when it comes to him. It’s almost like I lose all self-control, like I don’t have a mind of my own. He asks me to do something, and I do it without question.I watch Mia

    ALEXA"Alexa-" Levi murmured, then paused, gauging my reaction. With a sigh, I left our son's crib. I really didn't want to have the conversation he was sure to bring up right now. I needed time to process all he had said to me before. I left the nursery, hoping he would take the hint and drop the issue. I went to the bedroom, sat on the bed, but Levi was still right behind me. "We need to talk, Alexa. Please," he said. "You have already said everything there is to say.""But you haven't given me an answer yet.""Look, each of us has a lot to do today. So why don't we just drop this?" I suggested. "Both of us will function better today if you give me an answer. Let's leave the past behind us and face the future together. Marry me, Alexa.""It's not as simple as that," I grumbled. "But it is. The complications are all in your head."I bit my lip. Levi was wrong there. It was not that simple. I had been through a lot at the hands of Levi. There was an elephant in the room. Levi had
