Ciara's POV "I am sure you guys are waiting for her to go out of the house." From behind us came a voice er could recognize. We turned around and saw Ruby, with her smirking face exuding her antagonism. I clenched my fists to control my anger that was building up inside of me. What was she doing here now? "Oh no dear, don't look at me with that kind of eyes... I know that's what you guys are waiting for and that's the reason the Alphas didn't go to their office today. Are you guys scared? You don't have to be, it's normal for you to trust people you aren't supposed to." She glimpsed at the sky above her and returned her cold, dirty and mean eyes to us. When she saw that none of us answered her, she continued. "Okay, let me sooth your mind. Can you see Alexia going in now? She has gone to dress up and she will be leaving in ten minutes... I think that's enough for you to prepare for your shadowing, just don't be too heart broken. You know I can't bear to see you guys in pa
Alexia's POV "You know I love you so much, thanks for coming to meet me my darling. I will do everything for you." I angrily elbowed him in the stomach and he released me groaning and his eyes dilated upon seeing the Alphas and their family. My heart palpitated as looked at the angry faces of all of them and I wondered what was going on. I was absolutely confused. "So, you've really moved on..." Was what I heard from Miles that brought me back to my consciousness. I was frozen up... My eyes were as wide as a goggle. I was suddenly sweating profusely, I felt stuck. I could feel my throat tangling up together. I didn't know what to say. My eyes travelled from Miles to Michael, from Michael to Ciara and from Ciara to Ruby who smirking now and then. I felt like I was going to collapse anytime soon as my eyes turned around. I gulped and took a step back. I didn't know what was happening at that moment. How did they get here and what were they doing here? I had alot of ques
Alexia's POVI almost cried my eyes out of their sockets behind the door I sat, leaning on. I was angry at myself, angry at the Alphas, angry at Ruby. I was angry at myself because I trusted Ruby, the Alphas couldn't support me and trust me and I was angry at Ruby because she was the one making life seem more difficult for me in what I deemed to be my Haven. They all stood in front of my door, knocking severally and begging me to open but I didn't listen any of them, despite their sweet words and convincing promises. I felt hurt. I couldn't think of a thing that would pacify me and make me feel less angry at them, I just felt like crying more and more, I wanted to cry out all the pain in me and become empty of pain and discomfort. How could Ruby do this to me, someone I considered to be a part of me. How could she betray me like that and try to end my relationship with my mates and they as well believed her? Why was life this hard to me? Was my fate just cursed or was I the ac
Ruby's POVI almost threw my phone against the wall when I tried calling Kayla severally but she wasn't answering my calm nor was she calling back. The same thing happened yesterday and the day before yesterday. I had been calling her for the past six days but she didn't even bother to pick up and not all time do I get the chance to give her calls because I am now like a treasure in the pack-house which is always guarded heavily by soldiers. I only get breathing spaces during their training time or something where all the soldiers would have to gather together. I didn't leave my quarter just the way Miles had instructed me not to, but I badly wanted to leave... I had no idea of what was going on in the head quarter, I didn't know how the relationship of the Alphas and Alexia was in the house... How would I know progress? How would I make sure they stay away from each other? There was time I tried sneaking out through another route after pretending to be receiving some fresh coo
Alexia's POV We were riding very through the woods after leaving the Yaran's castle where Ciara, Miles and Michael had gone to do some thing I wasn't told about. I just stood outside of the castle watching from afar with the soldiers behind me watching over me and they came back just as soon as they entered the castle. I asked them several times what they went to do there and that too so quickly but they didn't tell me. It was later I discovered, let me just say I overheard them saying it. That had gone to kill the servant of my dad who tried to create misunderstanding between I and them, I wondered how they knew he was coming to this castle today... Though, I shivered at that thought because I didn't know how they had killed him, by stabbing, by suffocating, my strangling, I didn't know and a reason for killing him. Whichever way he was killed, I was sure blood would be splattered. It was probably because he refused to tell them who had sent him to do it but still, they shouldn'
Alexia's POV There was this man, who was introduced as Gordon staring at me all the while as I ate, and each time I tried to meet his gaze. He would frown and take his eyes away, pretending as if he didn't notice me. Michael looked up at me and asked. "Are you okay?" "Did you see that?" I asked him. "See what?" He asked confused, dropping his spoon in the plate. Miles looked up at us and asked the same question. "He is staring at me." I told them. "Who?" They asked simultaneously. "He!" I pointed at where he was sitting but I couldn't find him on the seat anymore. My eyes travelled all around the room, looking for him but he just seemed to have disappeared into the thin air. "Who?" They asked me again. "He was seated right there, he has been staring at me but whenever I try to catch his gaze he would tear off his gaze. I suspect him." I told them more worriedly. "Calm down dear... Who is the person you are talking about? Can you recognize him if you see
Alexia's POV What even gave ever the effrontery to come into my room to say such nonsense to me? Is she witty? I knew with her reaction when she saw me that she didn't like me and still I didn't have problem with me because I didn't like her as well. I had known that I can just stay without her in this place. She still sat on the table at one side of my table waiting for me to speak but I didn't say a word to her. I just ignored her. She was only trying to provoke for no reason, how could she be do mean? When I saw that she wasn't ready to move, I began to rake in the closet to see if I would find any dress that would fit well on me. I slid into a simple dress, fixed my hair while still ignoring her and put on my shoes before leaving the room. I walked through the halls, not knowing exactly where I was when I heard female voices which I couldn't recognize coming from a room. I looked back, she didn't come after me so I sighed. "That lady is so lucky, can't you see? She is
Alexia's POV I still didn't know what the Alphas had gone to discuss they with Alpha Kye, when I asked them... They didn't tell me anything. They just told me to be prepared for tomorrow's journey. We would be returning tomorrow. I couldn't tell from their face if they were angry, disappointed or something. I knew they must have come here to ask for something but I should respect their privacy and stop pestering them. After we had dinner in the room last night, we went to sleep. It would be our first time of sharing a bed. Although I was a bit uncomfortable sleeping in between two men. I knew they wouldn't do anything to me but I just felt insecure. I was the one who requested for a dinner in the room because I didn't want to go into the dinning hall again to see those three faces. Alpha Kye's, Gordon and Luna Rayzel's. The next morning, I laid in the bathtub filled with hot water, thinking about what Rayzel's personal maids and Rayzel herself said about me. Was I truly n
