Elena’s stance.I stand by the window, observing as Sophia’s mother pleaded for the truth. She is desperate to know the truth about her mate’s death. According to my father, her mate wanted to rape me; however, I have never met the Deta, so the idea that he wants to rape me is nonsense. Dad lies to her. I never blame my father for killing him, because whenever I see him, I see the fear he has for him and his family. He is constantly afraid of being killed by them and takes over his pack and people. Everyone in the pack knows they are extremely powerful. Their strength isn’t just that of a werewolf. Everyone can see they are not regular wolves. My father keeps his distance from them, but the pack can feel the power radiating from them. Whenever they are around, Dad felt small and insignificant. But despite his fear, he still respects them and allows them to stay in the pack. He knows their power can be an asset to his pack, and he trust they could use it for the good of the pack. They n
Primordial wolf.She must die.Elena.They are able to defeat him by removing his heart. He is a man of great strength and I admire him for that. The beta dispose his body in the forbidden wood. We thought it was all over. We thought we’d successfully killed him. We believed no one would know we have murdered him, but who knows he is the type to tell his wife everything. He tells his wife he is coming to meet the Alpha, even when my father command him not to tell anyone.We are celebrating and drinking because we’ve successfully slain him. My eyes widen in shock as I hear the voices outside. I quickly run to the window and peer out to see what is happening. It’s Sophia, her mother, and the guard, arguing. They demand to see the Alpha.“Oh no, Father. There is a problem,” I say, sweating.“What is wrong, Elena?” My father inquires, coming over.“Dad, they are here,” I utter. “Sophia and her mother are here. Did they find out? Did they know he was dead?”My father’s face goes pale. He lo
Alpha Andrew.Chapter 15.Alpha Andrew’s stance. (Elena’s father)Flash back.How Sophia’s father was killed.It is time to execute the plan to eliminate Deta Aaron. I have already exchanged Mark for the potion which is purported to weaken him. All I have to do is call him over and kill him.“Alpha,” the Beta mutters. It is time to call him over, or are you thinking of sparing his life?”“No, I am not Beta. Aaron has always been a strong man. I am only concerned about his strength. Are you sure this portion will weaken his power?” I ask. “Are you sure of this?”“I won’t say or do what I’m not sure of, Alpha,” he replies. “Please, trust me on this. This portion is powerful enough to kill a Lycan as well as an Alpha.”“What! I slam my hand on my desk. It was powerful enough to kill a Lycan? Are you planning to kill me after all this saga, Beta?”“Ha. No. What are you talking about, Alpha? he asks. “Why should I kill you, sir? What can I possibly achieve by killing you?”“My throne? You
Primordial wolf. The vengeful wolf, Athena.Sophia.Sitting in the darkness of the night, I watch as my wolf channels all of her strength and power toward me. I feel her energy coursing through my veins. I'm overjoyed by my newfound strength. My senses have heightened, and every sound seems amplified. My hearing has become so acute that I can hear the smallest bird singing in the distance, its sweet melody filling the quiet of the night. I'm feeling my heart beat faster with the energy I've found. I am able to pick up people’s voices from a great distance. I'm feeling a deeper connection to the natural world than ever before. With my wolf by my side, I feel invincible and ready to take on whatever challenges may come my way.With my eyes tightly closed, I feel the warmth of my wolf's energy as she directs it toward me. After a few moments, I feel her energy withdraw, and I know she's done. I whisper my gratitude to Athena.“Thank you, Athena," I express my gratitude. "Are you feelin
Primordial wolf.Sophia.My hand transforms into a claw, and in a fast shift, I kill two of the guards.“Hmm! Your blood tastes nasty and sour,” I rage. “I’m dying to know how the rest of your blood tastes.”“Shit! They taste so terrible,” I erupt.I look into their eyes, I can see the terror, the sheer panic that has taken over them. It is like a switch has been flip, and I can sense the fear emanating from them. Yes, that is it. That is what I want. “Fear” is what it should be. I take a deep breath and smile as I savor their fear, relishing the power that it gives me. Without hesitation, I leap forward, my movements fluid and precise as I eliminate them all, one by one, until there is no one left standing. Their screams echo in my ears giving me a feeling of excitement.Elena and Lucas freeze due to shock and dread. She shivers. Lucas takes a step back, his eyes wide with fear. Elena takes a deep breath and swallows her fear, her hands trembling faintly.“It’s your turn to die,” I s
Primordial wolf.Sophia.The Alpha wails and screams.“I didn’t know you knew what pain meant, Alpha,” I sneer, snickering. “I did not know you could cry. How does it feel to lose a loved one?” Alpha’s face wrinkled in pain. Tears streamed down his face. “Huh! Your daughter’s blood tastes delicious, Alpha.” I munch her heart.I smirk, savoring the taste of her heart. Alpha screams in anguish, his cries echoing throughout the room.“You devil,” he roars. “How dare you murder my beloved daughter?” Alpha lunged at me, his face red with rage. “You have no right to kill Elena. I’m going to kill you.”He attacks me. I smirk. I can’t wait to have a proper fight with him. I dodge his attacks with ease, reveling in the fight's thrill. He’s strong, but I can tell I’m much more powerful. I know with one swift blow, I can end this battle. He believes I am still the same girl he wanted to murder back then. I laugh at his naivety. I keep avoiding his attacks, and he becomes more furious than before
New start. New life.Primordial wolf.Sophia.“Mary, an order has come in from VIP room 20. Get it done quickly,” Sandra shouts.“Got it,” I say, hurrying to take the order. I have started my new life in the human realm. I rent a small apartment for myself with the money I save in the pack. It is a very small and antique building. I’m sure it'll fall apart soon. I started my new life here without having a single friend. Many girls want to be my friends, but I can’t easily accept them into my life. I’m afraid of being betrayed again because I have experienced the agony of betrayal. In my previous job, there was this one young girl that worked with me. Her name is Amy, and she looks exactly like Elena. She approached me and asked me to be her friend. I refuse her right away, seeing her face every day makes me sick and boil with anger and this pushes me to quit my job because I fear I may kill her one day because of her nasty look.I quit my job and now works as a waitress in a club cal
Primordial wolf.Chapter 20.Sophia.“Mate,” he roars. His ferocious howl makes me shudder. Who exactly is this man? He pulls me into his arms. His grip is strong and powerful, as if nothing can escape his embrace. What is wrong with him? It is forbidden to kill in the human realm, so I must leave before I get caught up in killing.“Get away from me, bastard,” I snarl, slamming my fist into his chest. He releases me, and I take a few steps back, breathing heavily. His face twists with rage, but he does not move to touch me again. I can feel my heart racing as I try to catch my breath. I glare at him, my anger still boiling. Even with the clothes he put on, I can still feel his muscular chest. This mysterious man exudes an aura I can never describe. I can sense the power radiating from his body. He stares back at me, his gaze intense. I feel an unexpected rush of emotions swirling within me. Once again, he pulls me to his chest.“Let go of me.”“Why should I do that?” he asks. In my ea
CHAPTER 81. A MAFIA?RYDER“What the crap, man? What's gotten into you?!” Darius spat, shoveling to his feet.“Don't you even think of playing dumb with me. The jig is up. I just spoke with Jason, you damned bastard!““I don't know what you're talking about, dude. What did that miserable rogue say to you to get you all worked up?!””You're the miserable one!” I barked, railing free from the guys and delivering another punch to Darius. They held me back immediately, pinning my hands to the back, “Fucking let me go!”“Ryder, get a hold of yourself. What's come over you?” Fred cautioned, pulling me back, it wasn't easy to keep me caged. They were using up all their energy on it.”What is this?“ Giveon asked confusedly, glancing from me to Darius, “Dude, what's Ryder talking about?” Giveon asked him, but he still wouldn't admit it.”I got no clue, I think Ryder just lost his mind,““The hell I did! You had Hara kidnapped, and then you went ahead to inject rogue blood into Jason. And until
CHAPTER 80. SO HARD TO SAY GOODBYERYDER”How is he, Doc? Is Jason gonna be alright?” I asked one of the doctors who have had him under survey ever since he was confined here. We were standing at the entrance of the room, an attempt to stay far away from Jason's earshot.”I'm afraid not, Your Highness,” The Doctor sighed dejectedly. There wasn't an ounce of hope in his tone. Got me scared.”But, he got out of his coma, right? And he's talking now. Isn't that a good sign?” I badly wanted to be told that Jason was gonna be alright. That's all I wanted to hear, but it doesn't seem like I'm gonna be hearing that from the doctor.”This is the last stage for him before he completely loses everything to the rogue blood in him,“”What? Wait, I don't understand–””Your Highness, Jason's case is complicated. I mean, he's the first pure blood with rogue blood in his bloodstream. And even though we're not sure how extreme his case is, we do know that he's gonna have the basic traits of a rogue,“
CHAPTER 79. NO MORE SECRETSRYDER48 hours passed and I was released from confinement. There was no solid evidence to attach me to the crimes and Tiffany took care of providing me with an alibi. So they had to let me go.On my way home, I was restless. The war was yesterday, but according to Tiffany, the war didn't happen. She wasn't sure why, but all she knew was that Red Moon Pack's warriors didn't show up. Something wasn't right and I was itchy to find out what it was. But more than that, I was in a hurry to get back home to Hara and my unborn child.“How's Hara doing?” I asked Tiff, she was right beside me in the car. Her gaze lifted from the phone she held, and she was hesitant in giving me a reply.”Uh, she's fine,“ Her reply was not convincing at all. It got me edgy.“Tiff, is something wrong? You seem agitated, and you've been avoiding my gaze. What's wrong?”“Nothing, Ryder. And please, don't ask me any more questions. I don't have an answer to them,” She whined, forcing her
CHAPTER 78. A SIGNHARAI walked past the lobby of the hotel and headed for Roland's suite. It's been tense at the palace since Ryder was arrested. The warlords wouldn't even let me come out, I had to lie that I was going to see Hailey. Still, they weren't at ease with me leaving. I wouldn't be surprised if they were tailing me right now.I just needed to speak with Roland. I'm all shades confused, but I had to be sure he had no hand in this crisis Ryder was facing. I know Ryder too well, there's no way he killed those humans. Someone was setting him up, I just need to be sure that it wasn't Roland.I got to his suite and was gonna knock but I heard his ecstatic voice talking to someone and I had the urge to eavesdrop. “Yeah, everything's going according to plan. With Ryder locked up, my pack warriors have a good chance of defeating Ryder's four warlords…“He waited for the other person in the line to say something and then he chuckled and continued.“I know the four warlords are str
CHAPTER 77. OUR CHILD?RYDERThe blaring siren sounds awakened me from my slumber. I had a throbbing headache, coupled with the fact that I found it hard to shrug off the dizziness. I'd sedated myself to sleep and I wish I didn't. Now waking up was hard, and my nerves are weak. I tried again and it was futile.I had to implore my wolf side and only then could I shake off the remaining effects of the sedatives. I was fully awake now, and yeah, the blaring siren sounds were real and fucking close.I hopped down from the bed and hurried outside, dressed in my sweatpants and a loose shirt. The hallway was a mess.“What's going on?!“ I asked no one in particular, as I brushed past running bodies.“I think the humans are trying to start a fight!“ A random voice replied. Everyone was in panic and it got me more anxious to hurry outside and see what the hell was going on.I froze in my tracks when I got outside and saw a long line of policemen in my front yard. Also, they had guns and we're
CHAPTER 76. A WAR TO KEEP HERRYDER“What?!” I was already hurrying inside and they came behind me. “They sent over the warning at midnight, a few hours after you left the nightclub,” Jay explained, "And in the letter, it stated that they were giving us two days to let Hara return to them, or we go to war,”“That's absurd. Red Moon Pack doesn't stand a chance against us. They might have good warriors but they're just on the same level as our trainees. Waging a war against us is suicide,” I was gloating, I was being downright disdaining and arrogant right now. But that's the only reaction I could come up with. In all honesty, I'm a bit anxious about this news. I knew it would come to this someday, the very moment I set eyes on Hara in my pack, I knew this day would come. And when her mate showed up, I knew it would come faster. And here it is, the bloody day I get to choose between Hara and the safety of my pack. After last night and how blunt she was about her feelings, the Ideal r
CHAPTER 75. SO EASY TO BETRAY MERYDERTime went still. Our breathing slowed. Distant chattering faded into thin air. My heart banged hard against my chest. I tucked my sweaty hands into my pockets. I could feel the low whimper of my wolf as he slid to the back of my mind. Hara's outburst just spiraled me and everything else around us off balance.”Wh-What did you just say?“ I asked in a weak stutter. But dear Goddess, I heard her loud and clear. I just wished she would be a little bit considerate of my bleeding heart and not repeat what she just said. But she did, she repeated it, more firmly this time.“What if I wanna leave, Ryder?“ She asked, “What if I'm suffocating here and I want nothing more but to be free from you?”“You really wanna leave?” Tears intercepted the free flow of my words, and they made their way down my cheeks. But she didn't seem to care.”Maybe,“”Was that why you defended him back there? To show me just how much you still love him?””I just didn't want you t
CHAPTER 74. I'll RATHER BLEED THAN LET YOU GOHARASeeing him standing there plunged me into a depth of panic and despair. Tears stung in my eyes and made their way down. He was yet to say a word, but his eyes were doing all the talking. He was blasting me with his eyes, telling me to go straight to hell. His eyes held a dose of rage I'd never seen before, and a greater shade of bitterness. He was hurting, more than I thought he would. My endless tears wouldn't let me talk, and even if they weren't in my way, I still wouldn't talk. What could I possibly say to fix this? Nothing, nothing I say right now would quench the fire of rage in his eyes. All I have to do is brace myself up for it.”Grab your stuff!” He ordered me glacially, quavering from anger. His clenched fist was hungry to ruin someone's face.I flinched at how thunderous his voice was. I ran back into the bedroom to get my bag and the bundle of my messed-up clothes. When I got back into the lounge, it was a bloody disaste
CHAPTER 73. IT HURTSRYDER“And that's a wrap,“ Tiffany declared exuberantly as the Frenchmen signed their part, sealing up this deal.I was ecstatic, but the fuck, I had to pull myself together. This deal was worth trillions and just what I needed to kick off my estate project. I haven't felt this fulfilled in a while, the feeling was surreal.The three Frenchmen stood to their feet and we shook hands with them.“I look forward to working with you,” One of them said in a heavy French accent. It's kinda insensitive that I didn't even grab their first names. Tiffany took care of all that. She took care of everything, to be honest. All I did was attend this meeting and sign the papers.”Me too. Have a safe trip tomorrow,” I beamed, stuffing back my hands into the pockets of my pants.“Again, I love your tux. The designs are fabulous,“ The youngest of them commented, breaking off in between sentences. English wasn't his first language and he seemed to be having greater difficulty with it
