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
MIKE“What did you just say Andy?” I queried him with my defensive eyes. “Mike, I want you to tell us and stop waving off my countless innocent questions.”“Andy, what have gotten into you?” Mandy and Sandy both stood up from their chairs, gawking at their young brother who was ever ready to take the bull by the horn when it comes to matter involving me. “Shut up your mouth, Sandy and Mandy!” His hands hung up in the air instructing them to keep shut. Both Sandy and Mandy were in awe of what was happening before them. Most times, I try to convince myself into believing that Andy is just a little boy who grew up with so much love hence the disrespect but with the way he's been acting up lately I think he is an adult in a baby's body. “Can't you guys sit your ass down and ask your silly self where mother went? For the past how many days we haven't heard from mother and you think it's okay. Answer me!” he banged his fist on the dining table, splattering the cutleries on the floor.
MIKE:My eyes stood upright at the sound of the notification that came through. I didn’t want to focus my attention on the fact that it might be a notification from Anna after the last text I got from her left me afloat.“I hope it’s something positive,” I whispered the words under my breath.As much as I’ve always been an optimistic fellow I still find it so hard to be positive about Anna’s dilemma. Everything about her sudden disappearance kept me abridged.“Common Mike you can do this!” a sharp tiny voice flew past my ears, summoning up the courage to reach out for the phone.Like the flash of light, I ran to my desk, picking up my phone to open the text message that had just popped up on my screen earlier.My mouth fell down in shock, “What! How come?”My legs were suddenly getting cold and numb at the same time, finding it so hard to stand for that long just to absorb what I’d just read. I reached for my bed to sit, “What exactly is going on?” my hands ran through my hair figurin
MIKEThe tightness of my arms rested on his chest, waiting for him to answer the question I had asked him earlier. “Answer me! Who are you?” I pulled him closer to me and pushed him back harder than before, my heart palpitating. I watched the unknown figure who was fully clothed with black from his head down to his toes, brought out a heavy envelope from the back of his clothes and handed it over to me without saying a word. “Envelope? For what?” I queried him, eager to know more about why he handed me an envelope. The unknown figure muted himself without saying a word to me. I couldn't even see the person’s eyes to know who I'm dealing with. “Can't you…” the unknown person pushed me off without hearing me complete my question with so much power,running so fast without turning his face back to see if I was coming from behind. I held the envelope in my hands looking at it for minutes,”What could be in here?” I pondered out loud, turning the envelope back and forth, “Who might ha
Alfred. “Thank you very much, Alfred.” She stood up from the floor where she was kneeling and wrapped her hands around my body. “Take it easy on me, Anna. Don't you know that your body stinks of dirt?” He shoved me off from the embrace I had on him, giving me a weird stare. “I'm sorry, Alfred. I did that out of joy and I had no idea that you'd end up feeling irritated from the way I hugged you in such a manner.” She felt a little bit dejected from the response I gave her as she moved back her steps. “It's fine.” I tried to maintain a smile but it wasn't genuine, “Guards!” I pointed my hands to the three guards who were standing at the entrance of the door. “Take this kid and meet us in the car right now,” I commanded them, waiting for them to act according to my words. “Okay, Alpha Alfred.” They rushed over to the kids lifting them from the bed as they all strolled out one after the other reaching for the car. I wasn't fully convinced by Anna's words but at the same time I just
ANNA. The guard went silent without saying anything to me. He couldn't even offer any help. All he was good at was standing at the entrance of the door monitoring the kids and I. “Answer the damn question I asked you, Dumb ass.” I almost spanked his tiny little head when the guard who had followed me from Alfred's chamber to where my kids were being kept held my hands from behind. “Leave me alone!” Twisting my hands off his grip I kicked him on his legs pushing him away from my side.“Can you please be calm, Anna? You are making it unbearable for us to think of the best solution to come up with.” He pleaded with me trying to calm me down with a sober tone of voice. Pointing my index finger to his face I gave him a stern warning, “Don't you ever tell me to calm down.” I took two steps closer to the guard, “I know you haven't trained a kid before not to make mention of kids so you really can't relate to the way I'm feeling right now.”The guard was ready to come for me because of ho
Anna:Alfred was fuming in anger as the guards dragged Mira out of his presence. He knew that she was going to lose the respect she had for him so it's only best he shun her up by treating her just the same way she'd love to be treated. I was about to say a word to him but I paused my thoughts assessing him for a while just to know the exact way to shoot my question across to him. I didn't want to act as if I was truly happy with the way he had just treated Mira but in the deepest part of my heart, I was more than glad that he disrespected her in front of me and the guards. “Thank you for standing up for me, Alfred.” Summoning up the courage in my voice I finally acknowledged his effort. “It's nothing, Anna. You of all people are meant to be aware that I don't stand up for nothing.” cleaning his mouth with the back of his hands he settled into his couch. “Does that mean if it wasn't me you'd have still stood up for the person?” I asked him, eager to hear his response. “Yes, Anna
The room was silent as both Mira and Alpha Alfred were shocked to their bone marrow to see me standing at the entrance of the door. It was never my intention to come back to Alpha's Alfred room, not after the altercation I had with him earlier on but as I passed his chamber I boldly heard their conversation and I was furious to the core to barge inside. Kicking the door with my left leg to shut it so no one would be able to hear our conversation, my hands were placed on my hips fuming in anger. “What the hell are you doing in here, Anna? What right do you have to barge into my chamber when I'm having a discussion with Alfred?” Mira took three steps closer to where she stood. Her eyes assess my body from my head down to my toes. Poking my hands directly to Mira's face I stood up for myself, “I don't want to care what right you think I don't have but matters that involve my kids…” I took a deep pause, beating my hands heavily on my chest, “I'm definitely going to stand up for them.”
MIRA:I began searching around every corner of the pack to find Anna and Alfred so I can at least always get to hear their plans and movements before they execute. My legs, hands and body began to ache as I continued searching around the pack without being able to locate where Anna and Alfred might have been.“I can't give up now!” I shook my head, placing my index finger into my mouth.I’ve always been behind Alfred ever since I became his Luna helping him out in his daily activities but ever since Anna stepped her feet into this pack I have been unable to track his whereabouts.Alfred has become secretive in every of his endeavours making me feel as if I'm not a member of this pack. Most times I sit down and ask myself if I'm his Luna because his actions recently have proven otherwise. “Alfred, you are mine alone and I won't sit down and fold my hands while another person snatches you away from me.” “I don't care how difficult it may seem for me but I want you to know that I'm com
ANNA:I inhaled and exhaled out loud simultaneously before summoning up the courage to break the news to Alfred. I didn't want to wake his father up so I limped out of his chamber quietly without making a noise. Grabbing the doorknob I swung the door widely opened and was surprised to see that Alfred was no longer standing at the entrance of the door. “Where could he have gone to?” biting the under part of my lips I asked myself. I increased my steps and began searching for Alfred. I wasn't expecting him to have left the side of the door without hearing from me. “Who knows maybe Mira nagged his little ass out of the day?” I chuckled out loud in mockery imagining how the nagging scene would have been like. “Alpha Alfred needs your attention in his chamber.” One of the guards quickly rushed to my face, bowing his head down in honour before passing the information to me. The sudden show of respect I've been receiving lately from the guards after I had complained to Alfred of how t
Anna. I hurried up to put on my slippers and walk closely behind Alpha Alfred. The moment I stepped out of my room I was hearing the loud murmur of guards and servants who are meant to be attending to their duties gossip about me. They couldn't hide their curiosity as they were too focused on how I and Alfred were going to. “What do you think might be going on between Alpha Alfred and Anna?” One of the maids whispered into her colleague's ear curious to know more. “I guess we never can know until their secrets gets exposed.” her other colleague who was so keen into her conversation gave her a swift response her eyes scavenging the outfit I had on. "But, how do you think Mira is going to cope when she gets to find out that Alfred and Anna has something going on?" another maid curiously asked her colleague. "Well, I guess we'll never know until it comes to pass." another responded to her hissing at the sight of me.I wasn't even convinced as to what they were saying or the little
Anna:“Alfred, please leave my kids out of this situation I am the one you should come for and not my innocent kids.” I crawled over to where he sat without an iota of remorse, my head touching the tip of his feet while I begged him. “The ball is in your court, Anna. Do the needful or allow your kids to pay for it.” He kicked my face off his feet.“Guard! Take him away.” He commanded the guard, instructing him to do the needful before he ran out of patience. I stood up from where I had knelt down, rushing to hold down the guard from taking away Andy from my presence but all my efforts felt wasted as the guards pushed me over to Alfred and shut the door behind me. “Andy! Andy! No!” I cried out my eyes, cleaning the mucus that was dripping out of my nose with my back hands. “You can't do this to me, Alfred. What exactly have I done to deserve this?” I stood up from the floor challenging him face to face as I questioned him. “Like I said earlier, Anna.” taking some steps ahead of me
ANNA:The room was a little bit calm as the only thing I was able to hear was the loud sound of Alfred's breath. His heart was pounding so fast and at this point I didn't even care if he was going to be harsh on me or keep on playing the games with me. “Answer me, Alfred!” I sat down on my bed, cracking my palms together. “Anna, you know that you aren't meant to be raising your voice at me.” He took a deep pause recounting his words, “I only came here to have a peaceful conversation with you and here you are acting like the loser that you are.”“Oh wow!” I exclaimed in joy, shaking my head in dismay. I poked my face closer to him so he could feel the anger in my voice, “Why then do you need my help if I'm a loser, Alfred?” My eyebrows were raised at this point searching for answers in his eyes. “Anna, The truth still remains that I need your help!” His back was fully rested on the couch he sat on. The moment he realised that I was a little bit calm he continued, “My father is si
