Alpha Priam was standing on a veranda with a glass of wine in his hand, when he felt someone’s presence behind him, he knew it was Bryant.“What happened to Rosa?” He asked, three days had passed, and he let his pack peacefully mourn for his death, but he won’t let this pass.“Alpha Primo found out the moment we released Luna Chantal. Rosa even called Luna’s parents whom the Alpha find suspicious.” Bryant replied.“I didn’t think he would have such a brain.” Alpha Priam replied and sipped on his wine.“He killed Rosa in front of everyone, by ripping…her throat out.” Bryant continued.“Are they still set to attack us?” The Alpha asked despite the anger built inside him with how horrendous the woman has been killed.“According to our ally, it has been postponed. The former Alpha Nickolaus and Luna Chandra of the Silver Mist don’t have any travel within this month. They’ll be staying to take care of Luna Chantal.”The Alpha's scarlet eyes glimmered as the sunlight hit them, no emotion co
The crowd started to go wild as they cheer for us with their hands colliding with each other. I mean what has to be hyped on this? If they only knew this person in front of me, they won’t react the same.“W-What’s going on?” Britanny was the one who breaks the awkward situation between us, yet Alpha Priam wasn’t moving still. It took him a couple of seconds before finally got off.“Let’s go.” He uttered, before turning his back on us. Britanny gave me a weird look, that turn her eyes rolling into circles before following the Alpha. While I’m still stunned and don’t know how to react, thankfully the crowd removed their gaze from us and bring it back to the performer stage. I hope Alpha Primo didn’t see my face earlier, with the thought of him making me follow Alpha Priam and Britanny.“What was that Alpha Priam?” Britanny suddenly asked when the Alpha started driving the car. Britanny sat on the passenger’s seat while I was at the back, not sure how well I process what happened earlier
“I-I’m fine.” Finally, I dared to speak.“Really? Your wound seemed about to open up any moment now.” He shot back coldly and finally stops massaging my legs when he seemed satisfied already, but I was surprised when I thought he was done.He held the tip of his shirt, and my eyes widened when he started pulling it apart, getting a bandage-like of its tip.“Y-You don’t have to do that, I could go back…”“Shut up.” He cut me off and put on his cloth on top of my wound, putting pressure on it. The pain slowly dies, and when he stands up, awkwardness slowly builds between the two of us.“Thank you.” I managed to say.“You don’t have to…”“For letting go of Chantal.” I didn’t know where I got the courage to cut his words, but I think this is the right opportunity.“For saving me back then in Chicago. And earlier back in the shopping store, I know you’re aware that Alpha Primo was just around.” I continued and managed to meet his scarlet eyes. Nothing changed with his dominating aura, it s
Alpha Priam was talking to someone on his phone when Celestine barged into his room without even knocking.“What got into you this time Alpha?” The woman asked the moment that the Alpha recognize her presence.The Alpha didn’t even blink an eye when he saw her, instead, he continued the conversation with someone on the other line. Celestine was very impatient in waiting until their conversation ended.“Give me a break Celestine.” Alpha Priam uttered as long as he dropped the phone call.“Why did you hurt Chandria?” She asked directly, she was sure that the man did something to the helpless woman, and she can’t let this pass. Even though he is the Alpha, they have to maintain the rules of not hurting anyone especially if they’re innocent or didn’t impose any threat to the pack. And she has to control the Alpha even if it means cutting his horn before it even grows and doing a such an unlawful thing. The Alpha Philemon will never harm anyone, and if the former Alpha was still alive, he
In the Silver Mist pack, Alpha Primo was having his dinner in his office while his eyes were settled on the monitor of his laptop. He still can’t accept that Alpha Priam ruined his plans to attack humans, yet he’s also wondering who the woman he hugged during that time was.He was aware that the Black Stygian pack doesn’t have any Luna so he was curious if that woman would be the next Luna of his pack or the Alpha’s apple of the eye. An evil plan suddenly popped up inside his head, maybe if I could kill Alpha’s beloved then he would surrender his pack, or he will start the war without much thinking. That will lead to their defeat, and the Silver Mist pack will remain the one standing in the end.A couple of knocks break and take him back to reality.Clearing his throat, he uttered, “come in.”It was Arthur who entered his office.“Alpha…” Arthur was wearing his coat, that makes him superior above any other puppet of the Alpha. His hair was fix and firm, and his face was always in a po
The staircase makes a noise as I made my way down to the kitchen, to get some water. I’ve been afraid to get out of my room as I might cross paths with Alpha Priam. Or maybe I should ask for apologies when we meet. If Falcon was right, Alpha Priam will hunt me for creating a mess and making Celestine attack him. I’m sure, Celestine tells him such words that would hurt his ego again, and he’ll bring everything back at me.But my eyes settled on Celestine who was sneaking a sight outside.“What’s going on Celestine?” I politely asked the woman.She gave me a short glance before her eyes widened. “H-Hey, Chandria. Are your legs fine now? You should’ve called me, what do you want?” She hysterically uttered that made me frown at her.“I’ll just get water Celestine, don’t panic. Besides my legs were fine now, I’d rather walk with a bit of pain than lie on the mattress for the whole day.” I replied and smiled. But my attention was taken aback when I saw a gray wolf and…“Are those rouges?” I
Catching Falcon took a short glimpse at me, I manage to not act suspiciously, like I didn’t hear anything.“But Britanny will be leaving back to Chicago in a few weeks right?” Rosa asked. I tried to not give a damn about their conversation, rather look outside and watch the gigantic trees dance with the sway of air.“I’m not sure about that. I said that’s probably one of the reason, but we can’t really tell it. Alpha Priam didn’t say a thing on me, he only asked me to call Britanny after we found a camera installed in one of the rouges.”That’s when my attention got hook and look at him.“So you mean those rouges has been sent by someone to spy us?” Celestine asked.“Probably, it was the Silver Mist’ pack doing.” I look away when Falcon mention of my pack.‘Was it Alpha Primo who sent those rouges?’‘For what? Did he saw me back then in the shopping mall? And now suspecting that I am alive? Those cameras were sent to check if it was me and I’m in the possession of the Black Stygian’s
“What’s the matter?” She suddenly asked.“Nothing.” I smiled at her, and she did the same. When the guard opened the gate, one of them escorted us inside. The familiar buildings, and houses greeted me, the Everett pack is next to the Silver Mist and Black Stygian, that explains why their pack looks wealthy and powerful as well.On our way to the office of Alpha Everett, my eyes gaze at the room where I stayed at and smiled. Who would’ve known that I went this far before?When the Alpha Everett went of his office, Celestine and Falcon bowed their head so I did the same.He still looks good looking, and smiles often. Though Alpha Priam looks better in so many aspects…My eyes widened. Am I thinking about him again?“Mango girl?” His familiar voice and the name he called me was a proof that he still remembers him. I glare at him, in a joking manner. But I smiled after, when the smirk on his lips didn’t falter at all.“How are you doing? You’re with them?” He asked. Talking about Celestin
The Black Stygian packs were in complete serenity as midnight comes, only the sound of the trees crashing to each other as the wind pass by. Everyone was resting aside from Rosa who was looking at the moon brightly.“I thought you’ll be leaving the pack in no time. What happened.” A gorgeous man walks towards her, his scarlet eyes reflected with the help of the light of the moon.It wasn’t a question, but rather a sentence full of doubt, and only a confirmation and explanation from her will ease it.“I changed my mind.” Rosa bit her lip before drinking the wine in her left hand, her trembling numbness didn’t escape from Alpha Priam’s peripheral.“I wonder why. Was it because you don’t have the passport now, and can’t leave the country, as you gave it to her, to escape.”Rosa was stunned but not surprised anymore, the Alpha was smart enough. But she still tried to cover her anxiousness with a fake smile.“What are you talking about Alpha Priam? Of course, it was in my drawer, I just th
“Dad!” I watched Ezra run toward the dead Mr. Smith while I was still stunned and in disbelief at what was happening right before my eyes.People started to get out of their rooms and started feasting on the horrendous scene. Though some tried to call for help using their mobile phones. My eyes then fixed on the man who used to be very tough when I met, the man you won’t expect would shed tears. But right now, all I could see is the man who was a loving son to his father, I know despite those harsh words from him was the fact that he was trying to get his father’s attention. Even though he’s human, I am aware that in their world, if you are wealthy like them, you’ll be deprived of your parent's love since they were busy managing their business. My father told me that, but I’m lucky that my father showered me with his love despite how busy he is as the Alpha of our pack. And speaking of my father…I suddenly remembered that exact day, my twenty-first birthday which turned out to be the
It was like a bomb exploded in front of our faces. Celestine hurriedly down the pack while I was left alone in here, I wanted to run too. I wanted to see her, but my legs won’t let me. Until I just found myself lying on the floor as I stare at the pack and a group of Alpha Priam’s men who carries lifeless bodies. My heart wrenched at the sight, and my body was getting numb. Cries… Agony. The night was filled with it, while I’m here helpless, and can’t do a thing, rather let the tears freely cascade down my cheeks. I still remember how Rosa helps me, how she let me escape this cruel faith of mine. The last time we see each other was when we were in a car that was supposed to be Chantal’s day of the abduction. She let me borrow her identity and live the life that she’s been dreaming of. I stole the time from her, and it’s frustrating to think that she wasn’t able to do what she wants because of me. I closed my eyes, I felt like I lost a mother. It was tormenting. Until sunrise, I di
“O-Oh, that is…” Chantal gave the man a meaningful look, and the latter seemed to understand it. “A-Alpha Primo, you’re back! That is… completely nothing.” The man was the one who continued. “What do you mean nothing? Do you think I’m a fool?” Alpha Primo shot back. He didn’t seem to like how the two were acting. “The thing is, L-Luna Chantal here wants to look for the missing rouges. I stopped her when I saw her almost enter the dangerous forest where the rouges probably went and L-Luna Chantal…”“told me to not tell everyone about it, especially you, because you might be worried,” he continued. “Y-Yeah that’s right, Alpha. And why didn’t you tell me that you'd be back today? You should’ve sent me a message…” “I’ll come back to my pack whenever I want, Luna Chantal.” He replied firmly, completely shutting the conversation. “Y-You should go ahead, your family must be waiting for you.” Chantal shifted her gaze to the man and faked a smile. “I-I’ll be leaving Alpha, Luna.” He bow
Priam? Then he was the one who saved me from those rouges. “He has scarlet eyes…” I couldn’t help but comment. “According to Celestine, there’s a reason why his eye color is like that.” The servant retaliated. “By any chance, is there someone with the same eye color as him in your pack?” “No one, Luna.” “Let’s go, the ceremony will end soon.” She added and gently dragged me out of that place, but my mind was still captivated by the fact that Alpha Primo killed his father. Until we reached the house made of expensive woods and luxurious-looking interior design, my guilt was still haunting me.“Luna Chantal…” I bit my lip as I was called by her name again. “I-I am not…” Not able to finish my words, my eyes slowly widened when three men entered the house. “W-what are you doing? Where are you taking me?” I anxiously asked when they started handcuffing me. Priam came in from the front door with eyes as cold as ice. “Bring her to the center of the training ground.” What? “W-Wh
The heat of the sunlight strikes my face which forces me to open my eyes. The familiar ceiling greeted me, it was my room. Getting up when a couple of images flash back into my memory. ‘Was it all just a dream?’ Wearing my slipper, I hurried to the toilet and look myself in the mirror. My hope slowly dispersed as I saw my scarred face visibly, gone is the beautiful woman I saw last night. Maybe everything was just really a dream. But what bothers me is the fact that Baron and Calypso killed me, was it also just a dream? A nightmare perhaps, it feels real, like everything happened before my eyes. The rebirth thing feels substantial, though does it occur in real life? Damn this is so confusing. I jumped off out of fright when three knocks ruined the silence of the room, taking me back from my thoughts. “W-Who’s there?” I asked as I walk towards the closed door. “The Alpha wants to see you, Cassiopeia.” It was a familiar voice of Matthias. “W-Why?” That’s the only word that came o
But to the Alpha’s surprise, Chandria slowly stands up even though she’s having a hard time walking with her injured left leg. The Alpha tried to maintain his composure and looks unbothered, it took time before Chandria reach her…“What do you think you’re doing…” He wasn’t able to finish his sentence when Chandria started kneeling in front of him, and her tears slowly glistened as it cascades down her cheeks. “P-Please Alpha, d-don’t hurt Chantal.” In the middle of their flight, there’s this woman injured kneeling in front of the Alpha, crying and begging for her sister’s life. “Please leave Chantal alone, you can do anything to me, make me your slave…”“No.” Alpha Priam’s firm voice was in finality. “Can you bring back my father’s life?” The Alpha suddenly asked, and the woman look at him with her pitiful eyes. It was full of concern and fear, based on Alpha’s observation. The woman loves her sister even though the latter treated her badly. “If you can do that… then I’ll spare
The darkroom slowly ate me as they threw me inside. I quickly flinched and tried to talk to them when I heard the sound of the keys locking me up. The greasy bars greeted me, as I watch them walk away, leaving me dumbfounded and clueless about what was happening.“Get me out of here!”“I wanted to talk to Alpha Primo! Please, let me talk to him!”“I-I’m begging you.”Until my voice slowly left me, my knees plunged onto the rough ground, frailed. What just happened?Minutes ago, my heart was full of happiness and hope, having Alpha Primo around me. Thinking that later, I’ll be his chosen Luna, and life will be easier for me, starting that moment. But what’s this? Why is this chaos happening all at once? I never saw this coming. I never see myself behind these bars where criminals end up when I didn’t even do something wrong.Why are they saying that I attempted to kill my twin sister? Where the hell did they get that? Was it even possible on my part?Then, Alpha Primo, why did he act l
Waiting for darkness to fully took the light feels like I’m waiting for the end of the world right now. “If you’re lying then, you deserve the most severe punishment.” I was taken aback when Alpha Killian’s voice interrupted my thoughts. “Death.” I quickly look away and put back my gaze at the sunset. This is my only chance to prove that I was Cassiopeia. As his condition states that he wants to see my face changed. If not, then I’m doomed. And I would lose my chance to get back to my pack or seek help against the Alpha’s plans. It was just the two of us here and it was kinda awkward for both of us. “W-Why didn’t you even let Hera come with us?” I wanted to slap myself for voicing it out, it supposedly stayed in my mind. “So I could kill you if you’re lying.” He quickly retorted making me shiver in fear with how he delivered it. I stand up and walk toward the ocean, like how these waves move back and forth in rhythm, I also hope that this time everything will be on my side. Or a
