Anna. After all the stress and trauma that I had to endure from my previous room even though I hate to address it as a room, I still can't believe that Mira hasn't gotten tired of taunting me. “Thank you for the water, Mia.” I ignored Mira's presence and applauded the efforts of the maid. Mia’s head was bowed to the ground and she couldn't stand to have a glance at my eyeballs. At first I thought I was scared or was my appearance domineering to her. On the other hand, I was forced to come to terms that it might be because of the appearance of Mira in the room. “Let me start by arranging some of the clothes that Alpha Alfred asked me to give you into the wardrobe. Maybe on the days you are less busy you can start by trying them out.” her soft voice went straight into my ears while her hand was still bent to the ground. “My friend, will you get your silly self out of this place.” Mira fired at her, pulling her with the strands of her till she finally got to the exit door. “I want
ANNAKnock! Knock! “Get your ass out of my door, Mira.” my eyes were deeply closed as I muttered out in agitation. If there is one last person I don't want to see at this point is going to be Mira. I was done with her even though it means lying to her face just to see her feel irritated so she could get off my ass. I don't mind what she and Alfred might have to go through just for the lie I told. “Poor Alfred! If only he had known that Mira is going to cause him nothing more than pain, then he wouldn't have made her his Luna.” I chuckled at my miserable thoughts of what might be going on between Alpha Alfred and his Luna. Knock! Knock! The loud sound of the door came in harder than before, making me jack myself off from the bed as I put on my white robe to go get the door. I walked angrily ready to give it to Mira in whatever shape and form that's a dim fit to her, “Didn't I tell you to…” “Oh!” My eyebrows were raised as I flung the door open, surprised to see who was standing
ALFRED:I was beyond shocked and amused to see Anna standing right in front of the secret hut where no one except my secret agent guards who go about to execute some secret task that i don’t want anyone to know.I wrapped my fist around my waist, positioning my face over to her, “How dare you walk into this place without my approval?’“Oh! Spare me that crap, Alpha Alfred.” She threw her hands over my face boiling with so much anger.From the way she was raising her voice forgetting that she is still in my pack under my watch I knew that she was fully aware about my discussions with my private guard.“Can you please calm down and…”“Calm down? Alfred, Did I just hear you say calm down?”She chuckled around pressing her head over to the wall panting out loud as if she was counting her breath.I turned over to my private guard who was standing at the exit door acting as if he wasn’t eavesdropping in our conversation, “Will you get your silly self out of this place?” I pushed him out of t
ALFRED:Her eyes stared into mine without any iota of her being able to feel the tightness of my grip on her hair as she didn't utter a word, only a squeezed face. "I said who is the father of these kids, Anna." I tightened my grip harder and this time around it was far more tighter than the previous one. kneeling closer to her ears, I whispered under my breath, "This time around I don't want you to lie to my face, Loser."Anna tried enduring the pain from the silent groan she kept on murmuring under her breath until she burst out her words in exasperation. "ALFRED, you are hurting me. Get your hands off my hair." She twisted herself alongside her hair and kept banging her fist on my broad chest. "Answer me!" I brought my mouth closer to her ear yelling out in pain and frustration. It didn't occur to me that I was screaming and shouting at her not until I saw her eyes welling up with a pool of tears. I thrust her behind me and kicked my feet on the wall. “Damn! Why do you always
ANNA:Alfred energy dilapidated with his head faced to the ground he shook his head off and reached for the door knob. His hands fell on the door knob while his mouth parted through every corner of his lips. He turned his head one more time over to where I stood wrapped in my arms and shook his head in disapproval. “ I'm sorry, Anna. I can't leave you all in here just like that.” he dropped his hands off the door knob he clutched unto panting out so loud in exasperation. “Excuse you? Didn't I just tell you to get out and let me be, Alfred? Why the hell are you still here pestering my life?” I fired back at him standing right in front of him without a smile on my lips. “I can't leave you here all alone, Anna. We have to settle our differences and come together to get things right.” His voice was clothed in emotions from the way he sounded. He placed his hands on her shoulder and muttered under his breath, “ You don't have to be rude to me, Anna. I know I have said certain things to
ANNA:I kept on paying rapt attention to every corner of the garden where the sound kept on coming out and I couldn't find anyone. “Alpha Mike, is that you?” I whispered under my breath trying to protect him from the eyes of the guards if he was too scared to show up. There wasn't a simple response from the question I had asked even though I was scared to the brim to get a response from him. “Can you hear me Alpha Mike?” I reverted back to my question pestering him to speak up, acting as if I was so certain to the core that he was in the garden with me. I continued, “You don't have to be scared of Alpha Mike. There is no one here with me so you are free to reveal your face.” I whispered under my breath moving from one corner to the other acting so fast so he would reveal his face to me without thinking twice. “I'm here.” A strange mocking voice echoed from my behind as I searched through the garden. I turned around to see who it was and I was beyond surprised to see that it was
ALFRED:My knees and hands were growing weak and numb at the same time as I sat down on the chair in the hut pushing it back and forth recounting on the altercation I had just had with Anna a pang of regret crept in my heart. “I think I crossed the line. I shouldn't have argued with her about planning to kidnap her kids when I was fully aware that she hates hearing me talk trash about them.” I thought out loud, biting my under lip. The guilt gnawed at me, a constant heart pain that refused to subside. I had acted rashly, driven by anger and fear, and now the consequences were looming large, “I have to ask for her mercy so we can settle things once and for all.” I sprang up on my feet shaking my neck back and forth, cracking my fingers so loud before stepping out to search for her. I don't mind if I was the one at fault or she was the one at fault. The only thing certain is that I have to ask for her forgiveness so she won't see me as a bad person. If I can be able to win her trust
MIKE:I woke up feeling quite dizzy which was unusual for me. I couldn't wrap my head around the cause of the dizziness even though I've been trying so hard to think what could be the cause of my dizziness.Could it be because I haven't received a call from Anna yet or the strange text I received from her or the response I'm still yet to get from the private investigator. I pondered out loud in distress in deep thoughts while picking myself up from the bed sluggishly to go to the bathroom to take a quick shower. Knock! Knock! “Alpha Mike, the kids are waiting for you to come join them in the dining room.” one of my workers addressed me through the door. “Tell them I'll be joining them shortly. “ I picked up my face towel to dry my face properly. “Alright, Alpha Mike.” The young mistress nodded her head before making use of the stairs to inform the kids.A deep sigh of relief crept underneath my breath, “Anna, your kids needs you at this point. I don't think I'll be able to keep up
ALFRED. The room was so calm and void of any drama as my father's request came out of his mouth. I wasn't expecting him to make such a request especially when he doesn't know all that transpired in the past but seeing him speak so highly of Anna made md kid of wonder what exactly could have prompted him to want to throw a party for her.Holding his hands tighter than mine I asked him, “Father, are you sure this is what you want for yourself? You haven’t rested properly since you recovered and when I thought you would be resting you decided to surprise every one of us by throwing a party to celebrate, Anna.”“Why won't I go ahead to celebrate with her? After everything you said she did for me. If I may ask you, son, if not for Anna do you think we'd be here having such a discussion.” His voice was a little bit raspy in my ears as he spoke to me. He spoke the profound truth and there I was staying right beside him while heaving in and out repeatedly. Indeed if not for Anna’s powers I
Alfred. My eyes were bloating out in a reddened state as I lashed out loud at Anna, “I need answers right now.” My father was shaking so badly that for every moment his leg shook my heart thumped in my chest so badly. I was unable to decode all that was happening. Everything was happening so fast and it was becoming almost impossible to grasp every step that was taken by Anna. The fact that she kept on feeding me with her repeated silence made me so furious that I was almost compelled to push her off from my father's grip. “Talk to me, Anna. I need you to say something to me rather than fuel me up with your dead-end silence.” I hunkered right beneath her and grabbed her ankle, “Don't force me to do what I might end up regretting.” Warning her vigorously I continued with my words. My words flew past her ear and she didn't say a word or utter anything in my ear at all to make me feel calm a little bit. She stood up from the bed-sized stool and brought up her hands that were being
Mira.“Answer me!” screaming out loud back at him I increased my grip around his neck while a part of my palm clung unto his collar bones, “ Where did you take the kids? I need to know thermir whereabouts as soon as possible, Zed?”“Indeed!” he gave a sharp nod that reclined with the word that came out of his mouth, “ You need their address so you can go after them and poison them or have them killed, right?”“Enough of the damn question and tell me all that I need to head about the kids whereabouts. I won’t stand right here watching you waste my time on things that aren't necessary at all. For the second time Zed, Where are the kids?”“If I may ask you, Mira. What makes you think that I have the location of where the kids might be? You only walked up to me with mere possible assumptions without any proof and backing and here you are holding the collar of my shirt asking me about something I have no information about.”Raising my eyebrows to a stretchy length,I hissed so loud at him,
MIRA. I tip-toed my way from the maid's dressing room where I stayed to protect myself from getting caught or seen by anyone over to the kid's room but to my surprise I was unable to see any of Anna's kids in their room. I was shocked to my bone marrow to see the room as clean as hell without traces of them in the room. I was unable to spot some of their clothes and their bags and that made me begin to ponder if they were still living in this pack. “Where exactly did Alpha Alfred put them in?” I said to myself packing back and forth right in the room to check if I could find any traces as to where their next location might be. “Damn! Why did he move them to another location without my notice?” I pulled over some of the boxes that were compiled fully to check if I'll be able to find anything but there was nothing to be found. “Fuck! What is your damn plan, Alfred? Why the hell do you keep sabotaging my plans?” I spoke into the thin air addressing him as if he was present in the ro
ANNA:“A knife?” He questioned with a long expression feeling a little bit lost as to why I needed to get a knife as soon as possible, “Why do you need a knife, Anna? If I may ask, what do you need a knife for?” “Do you want your father to be back to life or not, Alfred?” She fired back at me with a long face. “I want him to be back to life, Anna. But, the only thing hindering that is the fact that you want neyo get you a knife.”Her breathes were beginning to tension up as she inhaled and exhaled repeatedly struggling a bit not to pass out. I continued feeling a bit angry, “Take a look at the time it's barely tension minutes to midnight. There is nothing left to be done that would help me bring my father to life. I know he is struggling to fight his way by not getting into the outside world but it's already late.”“I don't know what you are talking about, Alfred.” Her wrist got tightened around my father's grip, “You have to get new a knife, Alfred. We have barely ten minutes and
Alfred. My fears were surpassing her willpower and I couldn't hide it anymore. I was having mixed feelings of both nervousness and eagerness to have her treat my dad before it clocked midnight. No matter how hard I try to hide my desperation, it keeps glaring right in front of my face that she could see it right in my eyes. Every single opportunity I had, I made use of it to set my eyes on the clock watching it tick one after the other.“Do you want me to do anything for you before you attend my father? If you need my help as long as it can hasten the speedy recovery of my father please don’t hesitate to let me know, Anna.” I looked at her in shock and fear of what was ahead of me even though I didn’t know if she had the full power to heal my father.She ignored my question, heaving out a deep sigh of relief as she hunkered beside my father where he lay lifeless, his eyes fully closed as his head was raised facing the ceiling directly as if he was staring at the ceiling.Her hands mo
ANNA. He looked at me feeling so surprised that I would end up showing at his father's ward even after I told him that he should shut the door and don't bother coming back.I could see the shock in his eyes from the way his eyes gawked on me and I know that if I don't end up speaking up one more time he might end up still staring right back into my eyes without saying a word. “I can try to heal your father but…”“Yes! Yes!” He responded without being patient enough to listen to allow that I have to say.“Once he gets better believe me when I say he has all the answers you've been seeking for. You can get to ask him any question in your mind to ask.” he doubled down his respond walking closer to me with his legs wobbling in tension. He held unto my hands and tightened his wrist around it, pulling me closer to have a better look at his father who is fighting so hard to recover. “Please, Anna I know that I have wronged you in so many ways but this is me appealing to you so you can a
ALFRED. My mood that was in high spirit suddenly went down the drain the moment I heard her response towards my father's health. At first I thought she would at least be less considerate and ask me how I've been coping but she wore in a hardened heart today and didn't bother looking at me. The only thing that she said was for me to close the door. “Gosh! What have I gotten myself into?” I threw my hands up in the air, while I rested my back on my father’s ward door as I lamented so badly. Everything was draining me so badly as if care isn't taking properly, I might end up losing my mind and sanity. I can't continue to watch my father groan out in pain while I fold my hands without doing nothing. “Common, Alfred!” I called out my name aggressively, “Why are you talking as if you haven't done your best. You've literally summoned all the best healers and they said there is nothing they can do about it. So, why are you talking like a failure when you aren't one?” My inner voice crawle
Anna.He stood right there at the entrance of the door and couldn’t say anything at all. Right there, at the entrance of the door, he was struggling to take a step forward for he knew that there was no way I’d ever think of my mother not to make mention of asking about her whereabouts.Taking a step further, he initiated his question to me, “Anna, are you sure everything is okay with you?” his voice heightened with a bit of concern.“Do I look like someone who something isn’t okay with? I only asked for my mother and there you are asking me if I’m mentally stable?” I bashed him so hard as if he wasn’t the same man I fell in love with the moment I laid my eyes on him.He heaved out a deep sigh of relief, kicking the chair that wasn’t too distant away from where I sat down so he could settle down.“I see no reason why you are here if you have no response to the simple question I asked you, Alpha Alfred. I need to know where my mother is and how I can be able to see her.” Doubling down o
