-Aria-

I dragged my feet into the room and opened the door angrily. I stopped halfway into the room to stare at the heap on my bed. I sighed as the realization hit me. It’s just Prisca. She had not gone back home and of course, after the last conversation we had, I had implied I did not mind having her around. After all, she had a habit of sticking around and since I had concluded that she was good to be with me, I did not bother about that.

She jumped up when she heard me walk into the room but the smile on her face faded away when it met my frown.

“What happened?” she looked at me questioningly.

“Nothing,” I replied rather sharply and sat on the edge of the bed grudgingly.

“Nothing happened and your face is like this?” she shook her head at me disapprovingly.

“You know, I had gone to see Adonai,” I began and quickly added, “To thank him for saving me from those wolves,” because of how she looked at me.

“Okay? So what happened?” she pushed.

“And then he was acting all special and pri

    -Asher-The journey to the soothsayer was a very long one but Derick had kept assuring it was worth it and the said soothsayer was very good according to him. I had no doubts however that I could get answers since the last time I had gone to a witch, I was able to get what I wanted.I did not think though, that the solution to my problem and that of my packs does not lie within the confines of a soothsayer. I was afraid to think it was beyond that, but since I had no way of knowing what the problem was, and not to then think of the solution, I had to make do with what I had.We finally got there and it was a distant land void of people which was good for me because werewolves were not meant to have anything to do with witches or soothsayers of any kind. It was an offense punishable by death and unheard of, by an alpha.“Alpha of the Moonbeam tribe,” a raspy voice called from the small building ahead of us even before we entered. I was not very much fascinated that the man, the voice s

    -Aria-Since Adonai had decided to act funny, I decided I was not going to pay any attention to him as well so he would not think he had a hold on me in any way by behaving the way he was. I had a feeling he was doing it intentionally, but for whatever reason it was, I would not let him have the pleasure of intentions.I had not had a thought, that Dante might have a hand in it. Not until now. But it does not seem likely. There had been a knowing look on Adonai’s face which suggested he was doing it all on his own accord without any external influence.It was hurting, that Adonai acted the way he did after the moment he had together before now. I should have known it meant nothing to him.Though I knew for a fact that I had better expect and be ready for retaliation from Dante. He looks every inch a back bitter, and speaking against me to Adonai would be his most move.I had a feeling in my guts that I was still way up against Dante in his own game. It did not make any sense though, b

    -Lara-Jasmine and the other lady which I presumed to be her friend walked past me hand in hand, laughing like two she-goats. I scowled at them. Even though they were not looking at me. I had a feeling they were mocking me. Because I had seen Jasmine looking towards me while she was talking to the lady and they laughed.How dare they make a mockery of me? Jasmine must have thought she was better off than everyone here and I am going to teach her just how wrong she was.But now, I was more annoyed that the chief cook had been laughing along with them. I can take Jasmine’s mockery only because she is a princess just like me, but I would not have a maid insult me.I walked briskly into the kitchen and pulled her hand roughly.“My lady…” she gasped in shock, rushing to save the bowl she was holding from hitting the ground.“Who is your lady?” I scowled at her. “And what were you discussing with those idiots that just left this place?”“What are you talking about my lady?” she asked, looki

    -Asher-The ride back to the pack was filled with questions and worries. I was fuming with anger as well, for so many things and I could not wait to get an answer to all my questions.The seer had said the curse was not broken. Even though I had acted tough, I had been shaken by that realization and I hoped earnestly that it was true. If the curse was truly not broken, I would lose a lot of things. I would lose the respect and reverence of my people, I would lose relevance. I had struggled for years to make sure my place as the alpha of the pack was redeemed, only for that man to tell me everything had been a sham.“Maybe you should have been a little patient alpha,” Derick said behind me while we walked back to the palace together and I slowed my pace to listen to him. “I can see you are conflicted within and have many questions you need answers to which the seer would have provided. But you had been hasty in taking his life.”“You do not understand Derick,” I said with a sigh. “I wa

    -Asher-“Oh so now you are ready to talk,” I raised a brow at her and she swallowed visibly. There were beads of sweat on her forehead. It was already obvious that what I had feared was true.“Yes, indeed, I am not pregnant,” she finally said and my hands fell weakly beside me. It was not like I had not expected it, I had thought of the worst but hearing her say it, a confirmation of the reality I was in, was almost too much to bear. So the seer was right after all.“Why…?” was the only word that could come out of my lips.“I am so sorry but I did it too for us. I did it for your prestige.”I glared at her.“Can you listen to yourself, Crystal?” I shook my head at her. “You did it for my prestige? So what were you going to do when it was time for you to deliver? What would we present to the people since no baby is growing in you?”“It does not matter,” she said. “We can tell them anything and they would believe. You did say the curse had been broken, so to make full proof of it, I sai

    -Prisca-I was enjoying Jasmine’s company more than ever before and she was doing better than the last few weeks. We discussed a whole lot of things and did everything together just like in the good old days and I was so happy about it.“The ball is getting closer and closer by the second,” I told her excitedly and she rolled her eyes at me.“For goodness sake Prisca, this is the third time you are telling me this. I wondered why you are this excited when you do not even have a date,” she said and I frowned at her.“Hey, that is not a nice thing to say to me.”“I am sorry,” she laughed and made to put a hand on me but I brushed her away. I was really upset with her. “Oh come on, don’t be so mad, I said I was sorry.”“I do not appreciate that you say such a thing to me, Jasmine,” I told her. “I have been complaining about this to you before now and you think it is fun to mock me and laugh it off at my face for not having a man by this age.”“Geez, Prisca…do you take it this seriously?

    -Adonai-I looked down from my window at the view of the pack below. It was a bright morning and the sun cast down beautifully on the houses. I could see the people going about their activities. I loved to look at the pack from here. It was a symbol of my strength and leadership as the alpha of my pack.My eyes caught Jasmine and her friend in the courtyard of the empire. There was something about this lady that always got me and I have been thinking of late, if I should overlook all she had done before now and take her back as wife.I knew it would be a breach of my pronouncement but then, it was still worth it. I needed a lady by my side and she seemed just perfect for me. She was intelligent and conversation with her flowed smoothly. I needed someone like that, someone I could talk to.It was not because I had any feelings for her, I assured myself. I did not love her. I need to fulfill a duty to myself and my people by making her my Luna.I had decided to speak to Dante about it.

    -Aria-I stood in front of the mirror and adjusted the gold necklace on my neck.“Wow,” Prisca gasped behind me. “You looked so breathtaking.”“Thank you,” I smiled and looked at her through the mirror. “You are not looking bad yourself.”She was wearing one of my clothes, or rather, Jasmine's clothes and it fitted her so well.We were preparing for the family dinner Ariel had spoken about. I did not want to go, but Ms. Ellen insisted I should be there since she threw the party for us.I was thinking about being there with Adonai and Dante. The two brothers were inevitable parts of my life which I could not do away with. Then there was Ariel too. Gosh, it was a gathering I did not want to be a part of.“What are you thinking about?” Prisca had noticed the lost look on my face. She had been talking to me but I was not listening.“Nothing,” I said and she sighed.“Are you worried about having to eat at the same table with two brothers your heart has been conflicted about?” she asked as

    -Adonai- I took in a deep breath to steady myself when Maria approached me, her face strained with worry and told me Aria was nowhere to be found.I had asked her to go get her since the ceremony was about to start."What do you mean by she is nowhere to be found," I asked, my voice in a low whisper so the people at my table would not hear."Even I don't understand myself," Maria said. "But she is not in her room and no one seems to have seen her."No, this cannot be happening now. I braced myself and tried to remain calm."Uhm, gentlemen, I will be right back," I addressed the men at my table."Is everything fine?" Dominick asked as I excused myself and I told him all was well. All was not well at all. A few minutes to the start of my wedding the bride is nowhere to be found.I walked with long strides towards Aria's room with Maria following steadily behind me."I was wondering if she had to quickly do something outside the palace because it doesn't seem like she..."

    -Aria- I groaned in pain as I opened my eyes. I tried to move but discovered I couldn't, I was tied firmly to something I could not see, a pole or something.What's going on? I tried to think. The last thing I remembered was being prepared for my wedding and then strange faces appeared in my room.I looked up sharply when I realised what had happened. I was in an empty room that was void of anything normal in a location I could not fathom.I recognised the faces in the room as the ones who had walked in on me."Who are you and why did you kidnap me?" My throat was dry, as well as my voice. None of them bothered to give me an answer."Hey, say something. Who sent you?" I pushed."Keep it down Aria," a very familiar voice said. "This is not the palace where you speak anyhow you like and everyone is answerable to you.""Prisca?" I muttered under my breath but she heard."Tis me, yes," she stretched her hands out in a show of dignity. "Flesh and blood."I looked on in shock. Is this a dr

    -Aria- I was being dressed by the maids for the wedding when Adonai walked in, and they all trooped out to give us a moment."Is anything the matter?" I asked, searching his face."Not really," he replied with a small smile on his face. "I just wanted to see you."I rolled my eyes at him."You see me every day," I pointed out."Yeah," he replied with a sigh as he walked to a stool and sat in front of me, his eyes watched me tenderly."What?" I shook my head with a chuckle."You know, there is this old story we heard while growing up," he said."Okay?""That you become too excited and overwhelmed about someone or something because you are about to lose it.""Hmm." I breathed out. "Never heard about that before. But why are you talking about that? Are you thinking I might leave you?""No. I am relating it to how excited I am about getting married to you," he said and took my hand in his. "Are you ready to become Mrs. Adonai and Luna of this pack?""You think I am ready?" I threw back a

    -Adonai- Today is the day I officially get married to Aria. I was sure my face radiated the joy I felt within. I could not hide it.I walked around the building, watching as the maids and guards ran around to put things in order. It is going to be a very big ceremony. Invites have been sent far and near, and all the provinces and clans, big and small packs, would be gathered for the wedding.Werewolves coming from far distances had arrived the night before. Dante approached me with a grimace on his face."So you are finally getting married to Aria," he commented."So am I," I said with the same energy."Well, how does that make you feel?" He wanted to know and I narrowed my eyes at him, trying to discern his reason for asking."Complete, I guess. A man with a family.""Mmm," Dante hummed and nodded. "True.""And after this, you also have to settle down as well. You have a fiancé already, so that wouldn't be hard, I guess?"He chuckled."Well then, after you."While we spoke, alpha Do

    -Aria- My heart skipped a beat when I lifted my eyes to the door and saw Adonai. He walked in with a blank expression on his face, approaching us slowly."Adonai, Zafa here was just telling me that he was leaving the pack. It was what we were discussing before you walked in," I jumped in to explain hurriedly when he had not asked me anything.Adonai did not respond. I tried to read his expression, but he hid it well. He stood beside me and faced Zafa, who looked back boldly as if Adonai had not walked in on us almost about to kiss."Is that so?" Adonai finally spoke, addressing Zafa."It is indeed so," Zafa confirmed, unshaken."But you did not tell me," Adonai said dryly. "You came to my wife to tell her but I am not aware of what is going on.""She was the one that sent for me first," Zafa replied. "And I did plan to tell you, though, she is the reason why I came to this pack. Either way, you would have known anyway."I was worried about the way the two were going. I wouldn't want

    -Aria-I moved away from the view of the window and sucked in a deep breath. I was getting better already, but health came with its problems. I was not on good terms with both Zafa and Adonai, and the two avoided me.I had thought Zafa was acting up because of his feelings for me, but when I found out what happened, it was already too late.I confronted Adonai, too, and now he was upset with me even though he had taken off the sentence on Zafa and he was a free man again. That did not solve anything.And it is funny to think that the wedding ceremony was just in two days and the couple were not talking to each other. Adonai might as well as just call off the wedding for now, or postpone it. I loved him and can not wait to get married to him but at least, not like this."Never have I seen a bride looking like this a few days before her wedding, except, of course, she doesn't love the groom, which is not the case for you," Prisca commented."A lot of things are going on in my head," I t

    -Adonai- I couldn't help the joy that radiated all over me, happy because both Aria and my baby were safe and in good condition. I quickly took my bath so I would return to Aria and spend some time with her. She was all that mattered to me and not this ungrateful pack I led.I would take a break from everything and create a special date for me and her. I have put plans for all the wedding preparations to kick start with immediate effect. I am wasting no time in making her my wife, whether the pack likes it or not.I walked into the room to meet her talking with Prisca, who excused us immediately after I walked in."Hey love," I greeted Aria brightly as I dragged a stool and sat close to her."Hi," her voice was less enthusiastic than before but I decided not to dwell on it."So how are my babies doing," I asked as I rubbed my hands against each other."Good," she answered shortly."Okay..." At this point, I was sure something was wrong. "Is everything alright? Why are you sounding th

    -Adonai- I paused and turned round to behold Aria's questioningly eyes on me and Zafa."Aria?" I called under my breath, unable to believe my eyes even though it was a thing I wanted so badly. I let go of Zafa and he staggered, hitting a table. I care less about him as I hurried to Aria and held her hands. "Aria you are alive.""What happened?" She asked as she tried to sit up."Please don't stress it," I held her back gently. "You have been in a coma for days now.""Coma?" Her eyes widened a bit."Yes," I replied as I explained. "You were poisoned." I turned towards Zafa's direction as I spoke and she followed my eyes."What?...what about my baby?" She suddenly panicked."Hey calm down...""My baby, did....did something happen to it?""Calm down now," I said slowly as I sat beside her on the bed. "Look at me. That is something we don't know for now but the most important thing is you are alive.""No," she shook her head vigorously. "Nothing must happen to my baby.""Come on, we can

    -Dante- If only I had known that killing Dan would make Adonai think of the option of using Zafa, I would have thought of something better. But Dan was a fool and the reason for my hasty decision. I was livid. He dared go behind my back to seek Zafa's help.He must have told him I forced him into it and I cannot have such foolishness go free. My only consolation was that the poison would have done severe damage to Aria by now that there would be no help for her.Let Zafa try all he can, and Adonai try to get all the medicine men he can far and wide, there's nothing that can be done.I have made all my strategies and they are ready now. I have strong support within and outside the pack. This is only but a distraction before I pounce on Adonai finally. He wouldn't be able to fight back because his hold on the pack is weak.Almost all the elders and men in the pack are by my side. I have penetrated them and talked them into believing Adonai was no good anymore. Aria made it even easier
