~Seraphim~I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing incessantly at the side of the bed, I blinked sleepily and checked the time. It was morning already, and I was alone on the bed. With a little stretch, I grabbed my phone from the other end and picked up the call without checking the caller ID. “Hello...” My voice sounded hoarse.“WHERE ARE YOU!” The voice roared into the speaker, I withdrew the phone from my ear and narrowed my eyes down at the call. Logan.Sighing, I sat on the bed with my head on the headboard. “Where are you, Sera?” He barked, I could feel the anger and hate laced in his voice. “Tell me where you are now?” “Or else what?” I asked levelly. “Who was it?” He growled as if he was running out of patience. I snorted at his words and rolled my eyes. “What are you talking about Logan, if you want me to answer any of your questions? Then you should be at least sensible.” I sneered viciously into the phone. Logan took in a heavy breath.“Who was in between your
~Seraphim~Jamal came over to the bed, and I quickly covered myself with the duvet. I felt the bed sink as he sat down on the bed next to me.“It’s just me and you here, are you shy?” His hands trapped me. “I don’t hide from me, I want to see you.” He teased and tried to take the duvet away from my face but I held them tight. He places a hand on my upper thighs, my skin immediately tingles with excitement. I took the duvet away from my face and glare at him. Jamal chuckles and withdraws his hands away, and steals a kiss on my lips quickly before I could react. I was dumbstruck and watched him laugh and moved away from the bed to the wardrobe. My phone beeped and I reached out to get it from the bed, it was a message from my father. “The Royal Ball,” I muttered and Jamal stared at me over his shoulders. “What?” He mouthed. “The Royal Ball,” I repeated to my wolf, holding his gaze. “It’s time already.” He was taking out his clothes from the wardrobe. “I need to be there,” I h
~Seraphim~“I need him, Father.” “Need him for what? He’s not who you think he is. Is it because of me you went after Jamal because I told you I liked him? I was blinded by what I was seeing then.”I shook my head at my father. I can’t tell him yet, I came back to change our future and there was war ahead of us because of the changes that I have made. I have moved towards another different instead of taking the exact path I should have taken, though that would lead to my death and losing everything. “It’s not that, Father. I have been seeing some strange things.” I had to change the subject, I can’t tell Dad that I do not love Jamal and that what bind us was the contract that we signed. “What have you been seeing?”“Blood, dead bodies of wolves, everywhere like the world ended.” My chest felt heavy as I let out those words. I saw them in front of me, it felt so real like the werewolf's empire became extinct.“Seraphim!” My father shakes me vigorously. I blinked rapidly, jolting
~Jamal~“You want to dance with me...” I lend down my hand, hoping she was going to take them. The waltz from the background was sounding louder, and a few were dancing in the middle of the hall. “...my Luna?” She smiled and placed her hand on mine, and my hand went to her waist, I took her free hand and had them placed on my shoulders. “Do not mind my dance, I not used to it.” I swirled her around and she fell back into my arms, our bodies perfectly aligned and we moved in rhythm to the beat. “I know, Jamal. You were never the one to go to a ball.” She replied with a short laugh.My hand held tight to her waist and I held her close, moving slowly with our faces a few inches apart from each other. Her alluring lips were tempting me to take them in mine and do things to her. The noises that were coming from behind Seraphim made me narrow my eyes in the direction, trying to figure out what was happening the loud voices overshadowed the music and we stopped dancing. I took my hand
~Jamal~‘What are we going to do, Alpha?’ The head of the staff panicked through the mind link. ‘They want to see the Luna.’‘I’ll be there in a short while. Do not do anything and allow them to wait till I get there. Understand?’‘Yes, Alpha.’I break free from the mind link and walked back to the prison gate and sent Finn to the mansion to take care of things before I get there and protect the Luna if there would be any need for it. I had Sebastian taken to the pack doctor, he insisted he was healing but I don’t want any chances. The rogue was awake and both hands were chained and he was struggling with it. Was he being stupid?There was no way he would be able to break those chains. “Let me go!” He howled, making me snicker, and placed a hand over the iron bars. His eyes looked around the prison fearfully with the number of weapons we used for torture that surrounded him. He swallowed and the bump on the front of his neck moved upwards and downward.“You know, there might be
~Jamal~“Alpha Jamal.” The chief elder stood up from where they have been waiting at the lounge. “You kept us waiting for a long time, Alpha.” He sneered and stepped closer to me. I dropped the keys in my hand to one of the staff. “And I must ask, what was so important that you couldn’t request a meeting with me at the pack house? Why were you running down to my house?” I stated calmly staring at each of their faces. Finn was standing at the top of the stairs and bowed when he saw me. ‘I kept the Luna in her room, she’s awake.’ He mind linked me. I nod at him and looked away from him. I know she must’ve been curious about what was going on and the tension in the house. “We need to have a word with the Luna.” Roger one of the elders remarked. “If you have anything to say, you’ve to say it to me, my luna is resting,” I growled, and he withdrew his step a little. “We know she is fine, Alpha but we must see her!” “Do not hide her from us!” One of them snarled. “We want to see h
~Seraphim~I was awakened by the sound of running feet outside the door and I knew something was happening. Not quite long, Jamal’s Gemma Finn came into the room and locked me in it. I had to ask him what was happening because I was confused about the angry voices that I was hearing. I wanted to know what was going on, Finn told me the elders were here and they wanted to see me. But he wasn’t going to let them because that was the order from Jamal and he was here to keep me safe in case the elders decided to force their way to the room.Elders of the pack, I know I powerful they can be when they are in their majority. Finn told me it was the majority of them that came. I was pacing in the room and biting my nails, through the window I saw a truck drive in and I know that was Jamal. I was worried about the outcome of the meeting since they wanted to see me, it only means that something had happened. “Do not worry, Luna. The Alpha would take care of everything.” I stopped biting
~Logan Pov~“Have you sent them?” My fingers were playing round the brim of the glass and I was staring at myself in the mirror with my other hand holding the phone placed on my ear.“Then, there would be nothing for us to talk about and we never had this conversation. That was the deal we made.” I hung up on the phone after I got the words that I wanted to hear, smashed the burner phone against the wall, and didn’t care if it had a broken screen or didn’t work at all. Jamal has my mate. Former mate, I had some much anger that she was with Jamal, and the Alpha King did nothing about it. It has only made me angrier!I hate everything that was happening.I won’t let Jamal off because of it. He’s going to use Seraphim to become the next Alpha King. I would never allow it, I know that was his plan.That was my position! I was the one to seat on the throne as Alpha King. I had not heard from my wolf after that day I accepted Seraphim's rejection and I told him to pray to the moon godde
