Rhea did not realize what had happened until it was too late. Her head was spinning and her eyes were as Xavier’s lips locked with hers. Was he really kissing her right in front of her father or it was a dream? It had to be a dream. She opened her eyes to make sure she was not dreaming and almost immediately, Xavier opened his too and pulled away from her.

“I’m sorry it took me this long to tell you how I felt about you,” Xavier said holding Rhea by her cheek. “But we cannot keep it as a secret from your father anymore. He has to know.”

Rhea stared at him in shock wondering what he was up to and Xavier walked out of the room immediately. Ghost stared at her in shock. He wasn’t even moving a limb and Rhea didn’t know what to do as she stared back at her father.

“Uhmm..” she stammered. “I’ll be back.”

She ran out of the room closing the door behind her and as soon as she closed the door, she was surprised to see that Xavier was standing right beside her. He turned the key in the mout

    Xavier struggled to get himself out of the stranger’s grip without result. The night was dark and the sky was starless. The only source of light available was that of the crescent moon that was shining above them and even that was not enough for Xavier to make out a face.“Let go of me,” he grunted, struggling to free himself from his grip. “Not until you tell me who you are and what you are doing with the princess,” the voice grunted back. “Now you’d better start talking. You’re going to get yourself into a lot of trouble if you don’t talk.”“He’s with me,” Rhea said. “Let go of him immediately.”“Why should I let go of him?” the voice grunted back. “Or even you? Your father has put out a large bounty on your head and I’m looking forward to getting that bounty.”Rhea and Xavier exchanged quick glances under the cover of the darkness and they both turned to face the Lycan that had accosted them.“What bounty?” they chorused.“Well, it’s you of course,” the Lycan laughed and licked hi

    Rhea’s eyes almost popped out of her head as she stared at Xavier.“Are you out of your mind? What do you think you are doing?” Rhea frowned at Xavier. “You don’t even know who he is!”“Come on, princess,” the Lycan laughed. “Don’t tell me that you’ve fallen in love with your captor already. You’re meant to be fair in your judgement.”“Well, I’m not fair,” Rhea grunted and turned to Xavier. “We are not having any battle here, not with you or with anyone else. Get that in your head already.”“He wants to have a battle, he knows the right thing to do,” the Lycan laughed. “Who are you to disobey the king’s orders? You’re not even the heir any longer.”“Mind what you say to me,” Rhea frowned at the Lycan and turned back to face Xavier. “Lets get out of here already.”“Are you kidding me?” the Lycan drew out his sword. “Either of us is going to have the princess. There is no way that you would leave here alive.”“Leave this to me, princess,” Xavier said, and turned to face the Lycan. He st

    It took them another thirty minutes of running before they could get away from danger and even then, they could still occasionally hear the voices of the Lycans that were looking for them in the woods. Rhea was tired and suggested that they slowed down a bit. Xavier didn’t like the idea of reducing the pace and subsequently, the distance between them and the werewolves that were pursuing after them but he didn’t really have a choice. He understood that she had been in the dungeons for some time, without good food and water and so, she needed to rest a bit. They slowed down as they walked further into the woods and Xavier turned occasionally to make sure that no one was following them behind. “We have not yet mastered the art of sneaking up on our enemies,” Rhea shrugged, noticing that Xavier was looking behind him every minute. “So don’t worry yourself about a Lycan attacking us from behind. It is not going to happen, I can assure you of that.”Xavier nodded slowly and they kept movi

    Salvador walked out of the herd of Lycans grinning and Xavier recognized him immediately as the Lycan that he had almost fought with before Rhea’s quick intervention.“It’s Salvador,” Salvador smiled at him. “Not Salad or whatever you called it.”“Sounds like the same name to me,” Xavier shrugged. “Dumb anyways. You think you can face off with me and survive it?”“Yeah,” Salvador nodded. “According to all I heard, your father is dead now and can’t fight for you anymore. What have you got?”“Well, you’re about to see it for yourself,” Xavier spread his arms wide. His eyes turned pitch black immediately and he dived at Salvador immediately. Salvador barely managed to dodge his attack and he landed on the dusty ground a few meters towards the end of the semi circle that the rest of the Lycans had momentarily formed to act as the ring for the fight. “Let’s see what you can do then,” Salvador smiled and steadied himself.“Stop this madness at once!” Rhea cried, coming out of the cabin. “I

    “Come on Rhea!” Xavier called but she had already started walking back inside the cabin. In less than a minute, she was out of sight and Xavier was left facing four Lycans with really bad intentions for him.“Don’t be a pussy,” Salvador laughed and drew out his sword. “Come on let’s fight like men and let’s see who would have her.” Xavier turned to face him and shook his head. He drew out his own sword and steadied himself preparing for his attack. He was not one bit scared of Salvador even after all that Rhea had said. He was very confident that he was going to kill him.Salvador attacked him as soon as he drew out his sword, not even giving him any further time to think and Xavier found himself on the defensive immediately. Xavier side stepped and moved back a couple times, trying his best to dodge Salvador’s blows and fortunately for him, he was able to get by the first five strikes without a single scratch. Salvador was not getting tired however as he continued to swing his heavy

    At that moment, Xavier willed the earth to open up and swallow him but it didn’t. There was definitely not any lie he was going to tell Layla to justify the fact that he had slept under the same roof with Rhea. He knew exactly what she was thinking had happened and he wished that he could just prove it to her that it was not the case.“It’s not what you think,” Xavier sighed. “We were not together all night.”“Oh but you two were together for some time during the night?” Layla stared at Xavier. “Doing what exactly?”“Calm down, Layla,” Xavier heaved. “Layla helped me a lot on the way here.”“I’m sure she did help you,” Layla stared at him. “In a lot of ways. I’m ashamed to call you my brother. I can’t believe you have been fucking the enemy, the same person who’s father is responsible for the death of your father and the same person that kidnapped your own little sister just a few days ago. How low could you go?”“Do not talk to your king in that manner,” Jimin warned. He turned to fa

    “What reports do you bring me from your scouting?” Ghost asked in a frigid voice, staring straight at the array of weapons lining the opposite wall with a murderous intensity.The anger swirling in him was like a thunder storm, and he desperately needed an outlet for his blood-thirsty urges.The warrior standing in the shadows near the entrance to the room, kept staring at the floor. It was better to stare at the dark floor for hours, than look up and risk angering the Alpha further. Especially when Ghost was in such a dangerous mood.“The scouts bring the same news, Alpha.” The warrior said. “Your daughter has been sighted in Black Wolf Pack territory.” He paused, like he was contemplating death, before he finally added in a lower tone. “Rumors have it that she plans to become their Luna.”An enraged growl escaped from Ghost, and he swiped a hand across a table, displacing everything on it. Several objects clattered to the floor in a thunderous crash. Most of them burst into millions

    “How are you feeling now, Rhea?” One of the pack nurses asked, as she walked closer to where Rhea sat on the bed. She was middle aged, and one of the few people who were friendly towards her. Most werewolves of the Black wolf pack were cold and hostile towards Rhea, because she was the daughter of a terrible man than had killed so many of them.They were never disrespectful to her, because they would not want to anger Alpha Xavier, but it hurt Rhea, that she was paying for the sins of her father.It made her hate Ghost even more.Rhea’s long white hair poured over her bare shoulders as she straightened up, giving the nurse a small smile. “I feel a lot better now, thanks to you.”Her sea green eyes followed the nurse’s movements as she crouched down to hold her feet, asking, “Is your feet still hurting as much as before?”Rhea shook her head no. “I think it’s healing up nicely. I can now walk around without limping or wincing.” The nurse nodded and proceeded to take off the thin strip

    “Rhea? Helping? After all I told you about her?”The disgust on Jimin’s face was pretty much obvious and Xavier knew that it was going to take more than mere words to convince his Beta that the Lycan kings daughter was actually on their side.“She’s helping out with Calistè,” Xavier frowned staring at Jimin. “She saved my life and i really think we should give her a chance.”“Well I don’t think we should,” Jimin sighed. “After all that she’s done, but if that’s what you want, who am into argue with you?”Jimin turned around immediately and stormed out and Xavier watched as he left. He turned to face Jaime and Layla who had been quiet all the while and he stared at them.“What’s with the look?” Layla frowned. “Come on let’s go help your Luna. I want to be an aunty very soon.”Xavier smiled and blushed and bolted towards the sound of the clanking swords. He was happy that his sister had gotten over her hatred for Rhea and he knew that with her on his side now they were going to defeat C

    "Hunny! Did you miss me?" Calistè gave a smug smile while Xavier stared in shock."You…yo " he tried to speak but what befell his eyes was greater than what his mouth could speak out loud."Yeah. I understand" she made a mocking face." Now! Are we going to fight or what?" She grinned big time and whistled to her beasts.He beasts all came after the others that stood in the room, Layla immediately changed to a wolf, her teeth snarling and her roar as clear as crystal.Calistè raced towards Xavier, her sword in hand as she raised her arms and swung at Xavier.Xavier missed it by a beat and she smirked hard ."Oh, much I've waited for this!" She screamed and charged at Xavier again, her heels hotter than the very earth as she kept off.Meanwhile kycans began to climb the walls and started to hit the windows."Jimin! The windows" Jamie screamed while trying to fend off a beast who looked at him as though he was nothing more than food.Before jimin could think of anything else, the shatte

    Jimin watched as Layla rallied the group together in the small study, the space getting filled up immediately with eager faces ready to fight for their Alpha, for their kingdom. Jimin turned away from the group, striding into the main study and shutting it close behind him. When he turned around, Xavier was staring up at her, his hands frozen untop a map that he'd probably been gazing at before Jamie entered."You know you can join your sister and help with the planning. Instead of being all by yourself, worrying, like always." Jimin was satisfied with Xavier's severe frown, his forehead wrinkling. Xavier ignored him and went back to his perusal of the map. Jimin drew closer, his head tilting down to take in the almost real picture of their kingdom. Xavier had placed pins around the boarder, and was currently swirling one in his hand while staring at the map in concentration.He stuck the pin at a place that didn't make sense and let out a grunt of frustration. Jimin was confused and

  • RISE OF THE LAST ALPHA   CALISTÈ

    "You can't believe you can ever defeat me, right?" Calistè said with vigor and a growing grin coming up on her face."Just wait till I smack that stupid grin off your face" Rhea said, her brows nearly touching from anger."Make me?" She challenged.Rhea rushed at her, her hands holding two daggers now, her feet swift on the ground and her stance defensive even though she was the attacker now.Flames went up in different directions and Rhea glanced quickly to see that Layla had her hands on Xavier as he steadied his breath to catch his breathing and stop the bleeding that was now obvious.Rhea got even more angry as she dodged the attack on time, her face nearly been dissected by calistè's sharp sword."You know how I got this sword? Huh!" Calistè boasted and struck again, missing Rhea immediately from her swift and tricky movements."I have a feeling you're going to tell me anyway, so do" Rhea said and took another stance.With two of her fingers she gestured for calistè to meet her a

    Xavier looked from jimin to Layla with so much surprise."How did you know that?" Jamie asked the man in question but he didn't reply.He gestured to his fellow elders and they all went to take their various seats at their high tables."So tell us, Xavier. Why have you come back?" The eldest elder asked again.Xavier who was still managing to recover from how they knew about Rhea snapped out of his head and stepped forward in the council."I have lead this kingdom for a while and everybody can see my works" Xavier began and some of the elders nodded their heads to what he said but not Marcus."I have been away for quite some time" he looked intently at everyone" And I bring you news from the snowy mountains and others... Calistè is alive and well" the elders gasped in shock." And what's even more? — he paused Ashe examined each and everyone one of them including Marcus — she has beasts of her own"Gasps rang out from every corner and Xavier liked the fear it impacted on them, it was

    The fight took a lesser time to finish as they had gotten that source of information, blood and splatters of beast remains stained them and the very earth that they walked on. Layla couldn't help but feel very dirty about the whole scenario that played out in front of her."We've got to help the women and the children Xavier" she said while Xavier turned back into his human form.Xavier didn't utter a single word as he walked past her and back to where a horse had galloped to."Xavier!" She called for him, her feelings out on a platterXavier stopped walking but didn't turn to look at her."I'm talking to you. We should help them out Xavier" she said, her voice sharp and firm and this got Xavier turning to look at her square in the face and Layla was able to see just how much anger resided in his little orbs of crystal clear darkness."No" he said, a Huff if air coming out of his nostrils with his finality."What?" Layla asked, baffled by what the heck he could mean."You heard me rig

    "Calistè?" Jamie asked, astonished.layla didn't know what to say or how to respond, the whole world felt like it went silent and collapsed."She gathered up every last woman and child and took them with her alongside some beasts" a man spoke up." You've got to help us sire. You're our only hope now" the first man said. Xavier came out in front of jimin, his hands still placed on the scratch he had obtained."We journey to my Homeland, the black wolves" people began to murmur." We plan on taking back our Homeland and we plan on defeating calistè once and for all" Xavier said with an air of finality.The crowd stopped murmeeing and cheered a bit." Can we come with you?""Oh... Let us come with you!" Another said." Let him rest folks, wherever he goes, we go. We pledge our loyalty to you sure" the first man said again. Xavier didn't know what to make of all of these information and all of these kinds of response. He just gave a Curt nod and that was it. The men dispersed out of the h

    "What did you find?" Layla said with all seriousness. Jamie had so much excitement in his eyes as he jumped up and down." I found a shelter and jimin found food, we could make a camp fire later tonight" Jamie replied. Xavier nodded his head in agreement."Lead the way" Jamie was more than happy to do so.They walked together under Jamie's direction and lead, he would lead them to a path that had a sheltering , like a makeshift house but with tents. Jimin was bent over a hurdle of stacked sticks and on closer inspection, he was currently striking two stones together in order to produce fire."Jimin, let me help you with that" Layla said and walked ahead of the men to help jimin, in seconds she had done that which jimin had struggled with.With food on the raging fire, each of the flame licking a bit of the left over meat, night had quickly fallen on them."I have a question Xavier" Layla suddenly said, everybody's attention focused on her , the illumination the fire casted around the

    There was an obvious change in the air the next day, Xavier was calmer and for the first time, so was Layla. They had both had time to think, mostly Layla.Jamie had appeared out of nowhere, map in hand as he suddenly cleared their breakfast off of the table that had seen more of the good life than the ugly.He spread the map evenly and Xavier glanced at Layla just in the nick of time to see that same excitement he couldn't deny made him feel a spark." Xavier, lead the way" Jamie said as he stepped away from the map. Xavier who had been seated stood up and so did the rest. With their necks outstretched, they gathered around him like a flock of flightless birds in need of direction."We go through the Rocky mountain which should take a day but now that we have no means of flight or how to get there asides from our obvious walking, we'd have to take nearly two days to get there," he said, pointing at some steep and yet pointy figures that made its way to the map."What about going arou
