My stomach grumble so loud followed by the banging headaches in my head that I felt my body dying slowly from either pain or hunger, which I know not.
I sat silently as I watched my father from the side rear corner of my eyes watching me with this irritation.
My eyes became dizzy and I felt my world crashing on me as my eye lid closed and everything turned black.
After an hour on the road, the car stopped outside of our pack house and I felt my father come out of the car with Azita trailing behind him in fear.
My eyes were too heavy to give way for me to open them.
My head felt heavy as well that I didn’t know what was happening to my body.
It was like I was carrying the whole world in them. My stomach turned and I suddenly felt the urge to poke.
I struggled to open the car door and put my face out of the car and vomited.
I felt alive when I did and the cool breeze blew right on my face that I suddenly felt energized in the moment.
From where I was seated, I could see my father at the far end of our pack house, talking to a man I believe to never have seen before.
He looked to be engrossed in whatsoever he was discussing that he hadn’t noticed I was already awake.
Few maids and servants walked hastily like they got ants in their pants.
They bowed their heads in courtesy and greeted my father before walking away to do their business.
Two male soldiers were standing behind him.
Something was off as I watched my father from a distance, he seemed to be in a very angry state talking to the man in front of him.
I couldn’t hear what they were saying but to get a better view of everything, I would need to climb out from this battered looking car.
I wanted to be free and wanted to come out of the car.
I was damn scared of coming out without his approval but who cares anyways, he won’t kill me, he would only punish me just as he is fond of doing.
I stumbled on my feet and made my way out of the car and sluggishly dragged my weak legs towards our house.
I didn’t enter inside the house but waited outside of the house, settling myself on a small bench I found, leaning against the wall.
I sat my tired painful butt on it, breathing heavily as I did.
I tried to strain my ears to hear what the men were discussing but their connection was blocked when I attempted to use my inner hearing.
My stomach grumbled again but this time, more loudly but I ignored because there was nothing I could do till when my heartless demon father orders our maids to serve my mother and I, then I could eat.
It almost lunch time and I haven’t had breakfast.
I was dying slowly coupled with how I was feeling so sick and tired.
From where I was sitting, I could see my father Looking towards the car perhaps looking for me, because his eyes started roaming towards the car direction.
I gulp hard knowing I was in deep trouble because he may soon find out I wasn’t inside the car anymore. Just as I thought, he didn’t find me in the car as his eyes scan the place and finally settled on me at where I sat tiredly like someone who had trek twenty miles in a dessert.
I slightly frowned when our eyes met, and I felt him charge towards me in a powerful force that I wonder how he did it because he suddenly appeared right in front of me, in a matter of two seconds.
I felt my hair dragged to the back of my head, and my back stretching to the new pain I was receiving from his powerful grip on my hair.
It was like my inner skull was crushed and pulled out from my head as he pulled me up from where I sat.
“Argh! Father you are hurting me”.
I screamed loud and shook my body for freedom but he pinned me down on the bench I was seated on, that my body pressed so hard against it.
“You this miserable thing, you always dare to disrespect my authority”.
He yelled with irritation in his voice.
I shiver in fear under his grip on my hair.
I am in deep trouble for all I care, but I don’t care.
I think it death I need to face now.
I need all this suffering to end once and for all.
“Arghhh!!”.
I yelled in pains from the huge unexpected punch I felt him give me on my face and another on my stomach that I began spitting out blood from my mouth as I began bleeding from my nose.
I then hear him say,
“Am goanna make you pay for the humiliation you caused me today by that small Alpha boy. I have been in this Alpha game for years and I know how to play it but you chose to expose me to that little brat. I’ll definitely make you pay with pains for it”.
He yelled aggressively at me with his Alpha tone that got me weak under his mercy.
I could also see the maids and servants shaking their heads in fear and pity for me.
I couldn’t say a word because I felt like I was dying.
I was in pains followed by the hunger biting down in my stomach.
Today was the worst day of my life to experience more torture from this heartless and cold father of mine.
His eyes were filled with no emotions because it held hate and distaste for me.
“Today would be the day I would get to do what I like to that miserable thing I called my mate. I would punish her for your sins and as well do to you what I have in mind”.
His statement got me to shiver in nervousness what he meant by that statement.
I thought of what he might do to me now perhaps, he may order the soldiers to lift me up towards the sun till the sun goes down, or he orders them to beat me up to a hundred strokes of cane.
I stood like a dying chicken with the little strength I could gather to look at him with evil glint in my eyes. Lucy was right, I would have poison this good for nothing father of mine but I just can’t find the courage to kill a soul.
I wish I was never have been born in this wretched family.
A family that doesn’t care neither do they know they got someone to care for.
My father was ruthless and I do not even know the right word to use for him at this moment.
I saw him as an enemy.
As an obstacle.
As a betrayal.
And as a demon agent, send by the demon himself to torment people to do his biddings.
I hate him with my last drop of blood, and I wish him all the bad things he wishes me and my beloved mother Anne, who he treats like trash even more than an animal.
“Guards!!”.
I heard him call on the guards and I wondered what he was up to this time.
Perhaps, he needed them to lift me up just as the same punishment I have been receiving all through my 17 years.
I felt I wasn’t ready for it cos I was so weak and sick that I felt my eyes popping out from my sockets and my stomach ripping out from my body.
How will I endure the new pain and the new torture.
The guards were not always ease on me when they carried me up in their arms towards the sun.
I felt like pulling a bullet into their skulls when I saw them approaching my direction alongside my demonic father, Alpha Dakota
His parents did wrong in calling him Dakota, because he is a stone and have a heart as a stone.
So hard that he never changes his mind from doing what he wishes to.
I saw the guards approaching me and suddenly bowed their heads in courtesy to my father.
“Master”.
The chorused in unison, holding this hard look on their face like they were gods.
“Uhm. Get this pig into the dungeon and lock her up. Get Anne out from this house this minute”.
He roared in a commanding tone at the guards as they quickly grab me by my dress and pulled me up like I weight nothing. They ignored my screams and the punches I threw at them with my weak fists. But I was sure to hit them hard with all the strength I could muster.
I saw the curtains on my mother’s room window shook inappropriately and I wondered what may have trigger such on it.
My eyes went directly towards it the more because I was drawn to what made the curtains shift .
I remembered it was only my mom left at home alongside the maids..
Would it be her? Or probably the maids? I said to myself and looked once more towards the curtain blinds.
I didn’t get the answer I was looking for so I continued my struggle with the guards.
“Leave me go. Get off me you cowards!!”.
I yelled so loud at them but was shut off with a blow from my father on my face again.
I went limb immediately and I felt sore all over my body that my eyes began seeing Stars.
Seconds later….
Everything turned black.

“What are you doing right here Lucy?”.I whispered my question with panic and worry written all over me.“Shush!”.She placed a finger on my lips, signaling me to keep quiet.I was impatient to know the reason why she had risk her life just to find me in my cell.“What are you doing here?”.I whisper my question yet again with concern and worry, but she only took my hand, dragging me back into my cell that my back hit gently on the wall of the cell.She hurriedly went for the door and slammed it lock in a gentle manner like no one had tamper with it previously.I faced her again, looking into her eyes in a questioning way cause I was confused.“Can you just tell me the reason you have to risk your life to come all the way here because of me huh?”.I yelled in annoyance at her behavior from the sudden rage burning within me.I wasn’t ready to loose anyone close to me so seeing her here was hurting my feelings so bad.She was my best friend and I was grateful to have her as one because

WRITERS NARRATION Anne’s body was taken to the center of the pack house and burned to ashes for everyone in the pack to see. A lot of people gathered and watch the body burn to nothing, and handled like a commoner. Some stood hands akimbo, especially the women, watching with sadness in their facial expression while some were happy and celebrated the demise of Anne, Alpha Dakota late mate and wife, wishing to be the new Alpha’s Luna. Alpha Dakota didn’t give his late mate a befitting burial like the normal traditional way, as mate should bury a mate if they were dead. He was glad she was out of the way even if he felt hurting but tried not to let any emotions get into him. He thought of the things he would do to Selene, his weak daughter. He also thought on how he would use Selene to get the power he want from Alpha Damon, by marrying her off to him only to gain his good side, then strike when he don’t expect, he thought inwardly with a smirk on his face. “Don’t worry, when I ge
Just as Alpha Damon was busy in his thoughts, he was snapped out of it when the door swing open revealing Levi, one of his body guards, with a concern expression on his face.Damon raised up his head to look towards Levi direction.“What’s the news?”.Alpha Damon spoke with a calm yet commanding voice tone.With a bowed head, Levi said“Alpha, Noir is at the door and is wanting to see you”.Levi stated in a hush tone.“Send her in immediately”.Damon commanded coldly, taking a few sips from his wine.“Ok Alpha”.Levi nodded his response and walked away immediately to bring Noir in as directed by Alpha Damon.Moment later….Noir walked in, dressed in a short sultry red gown and heels with an heavy make-up. She had her face held high like she was the original Luna of the pack and true mate to Alpha Damon.“What do you seek, Noir!?”.Alpha Damon’s eyes darkened as he spoke without emotions in his voice, not even sparing a glance to her direction.Noir was startled on his statement and hi
It was lunch time as Damon lay on his bed tiredly and wide awake, not wanting to get up till he has gotten all the rest he needed. He knew his mother Luna White would soon send for him and he wasn't ready to climb out of bed yet, not even anytime soon. Just as he was contemplating with his mind, he soon heard a hard knock on the door. The knock came with a loud bang on the door and he had no choice but to stand up frowning in annoyance. He knew it was the maid sent by Luna White to call for his attention. Damon had long perceived the maid scent even before she got to his door. With anger, after not sleeping throughout the long night just to stay awake to watch the dark night at the roof top alone, and thinking about the strange girl that appeared to him claiming to be his mate. "What do you need?". He thundered aloud that he himself knew he shouldn't have, but who cares anyways. He is the Alpha and true royal blood. Who dares tries to question his authority? Damon felt the
Christian left to his room after scenting Damon was gone.On getting to the living room, Damon could hear whispers and chattering from the left corner of the living room.The kitchen was close to the dinning room between the living room and the guests room downstairs.Damon smiled seeing his beloved mother; Luna White, ordering the maids to put things in order.Damon went behind her and wrapped an arm around her.He felt her body stiffened when their body meet, and also felt her smile as she lay her hands on his arm which was wrapped around her shoulder.Luna White turned around and was facing Damon now in full view.He could see the satisfactory smile on his mother’s face on seeing him."Son".She called with an amazing voice tone that made Damon felt warm inside him."Yes mother?".He responded with a questioning look on his face."Lunch is ready. Go have your sit. The maids has set the table”.Luna White said and Damon only nodded and made his way to the dinning, drawing a seat to
King Alpha Sine said his grandchild had refused and felt jealous of his brother when he had planted some farm crops in the land he gave them to share and the farm products had grown so well that people admired his work and decided to give him a hand by buying some from him. But jealousy didn't let his grandson feel good about his brother's progress, he stabbed him to death and ran away after making sure to kill his own family except only one who managed to escape, and that was his sister, Diana. Now Diana was nowhere to be found because of fear, but after many years, she returned only after confirming her brother leaving the pack for a very long time, there she began living in the pack house once again, believing he wouldn't return. But her brother, his grandchild, went to create a pack of his own after killing the real Alpha of that pack and claiming his pack and the people. Damon had wondered who the grandson was and asked the king to tell him who he was, after he confirmed the m
The day is finally here and our little baby with great and special powers will be named today. I dressed him so well and I was loving what I was seeing. The royalty in him must be seen so I dressed him in all white and a touch of purple. Naturally, he was expected to be dressed in all white but since it’s a baby with difference, I had to spot out the difference with the purple. I was dressed in all purple as the Lunas have picked and the men are to dress in purple suit that looks just like the purple their Luna is wearing. This is a naming that is one of it kind. Several persons have names for the child already. I was just so surprised seeing all of these happening. I moved to that hall and it was filled with too many persons. And I was really surprised to see what we have then I was told the outside is even more crowded with people. This was one of its kind in the pack. I was greeted with so much noise as a welcome into the hall as I walk majestically beside my man, Alpha Damo
The presentation of Baby Nicholas happened in a brighter mood although everyone was ban from calling out his name until the seventh day.Those who knew the meaning of his name commended Alpha Philip’s sense of humor. He was really thoughtful to have given him that name right from birth.There was a sudden darkness that showed in his eyeball for everyone's view. Those rainbow eyes were sparkling and then in a minute, he closes his eye again.We were all led back to the main pack building. Lucy had to take her leave and I have to understand that it will be in the next seven days before I see her again. I wish she could stay though.“Alpha Damon, I owe you brother. You haven’t only helped me but your son be doing the most also. Thanks a lot man.” Alpha Philip said to Alpha Damon both men embracing each other and making me want to hug my Lucy too.We bade farewell to each other and baby Nicholas started this cry that won’t stop in time. What exactly could be the problem again here? I can
The next morning, an emergency bus came into the compound and it was Alpha Philip and his park people. I wasn’t even dressed up yet but what could be the occasion? I was really surprised especially seeing how they got here so early. And they were with all of their maids.“Alpha Damon, I’m here to put things right. I need to know the power the child in Luna Selene carries. If not for the existence of this pregnancy, a lot wouldn’t have been revealed to me.” Alpha Philip said to Damon.“I don’t understand what you are talking about. Can you be more specific?” Damon knows his child is special but does not know what exactly what he carries and that was the type of life I want to live. No one knowing anything about me nor my child.“I know Luna Selene knows better.” He adjusted himself on the sofa he sat down on.They didn’t want to discuss in general with everyone most especially the maids. So they were at Alpha Damon’s resting space.“I got the advice Luna Selene gave Luna Lucy yest
Lucy is a bully so I know she is going to throw a fist first. Her fist will center on bringing Helen here when I myself will need her.“Why did you send her here. I feel like beating you up right now.” She came closer as if she was ready to hit me.“But let me think about my little king and leave you do your silly attitude.” She hissed. Turned away and waiting for what I was going to say or do.“You can’t even offer me a seat.” I said as I take my seat on the chair next to her.“What could those men be discussing?” Since after the meeting with other Alphas, alpha Philip and Alpha Damon has been together discussing what I don’t know.“Are they not over there” she pointed at the hall opposite ours. “You can walk up to them and ask what they are discussing that is delaying them that much. You haven’t stop this your poke nosing habit.” She said as she dragged my nose.“Why are you avoiding my question?” She asked me then I acted all surprised. I needed her to feel like I have forgotten t
This gathering will be the first time we will be seeing after she had left green moss pack.It’s just a week since she left so I don’t miss her much but then, I feel her absence. We truly have a lot to catch up on. How lovely and otherwise of her new environment have been.Luna Stella must not have expected Alpha Philip to be so cruel on her that she felt like her world was crumbling. As we were approaching them, we saw them bundling her out. She looked at me with so much hatred and I didn’t hesitate to look at her too with so much coldness. There’s nothing much left for her to do. Life is fair; on her I guess.I was supposed to be the leader of the Lunas but Lucy advised me against taking over such position in a haste so I had to let the Luna who was second to Luna white take over.According to Luna Lucy, she said,“You shouldn’t buy hatred for yourself by taking that position. They can’t take it away from green Moss pack, but you have to let them know you are still young in their
We need to do the needful and so sending Helen as soon as possible is the only gift we could give her as my child as requested.Damon's driver was the one who drove helen to blue hill pack a bit swift. They got there before it was too dark. Immediately Lucy saw Helen, she called me to ask why I send her over there but I only smiled because truthfully, I knew she was really excited seeing helen.“You shouldn’t have stressed this lady just to put a smile on my face. I can still handle things on my own you know.” She said over the phone with a chuckle.“Will you send her back?” I teased her. I knew her response will be no but why is she still dragging this?.“Send her back to where? Please just take care of yourself over there. You are not seeing her for the time being till perhaps, forever.” Lucy and this girl have some connections that I myself couldn’t explain so releasing her will be hard. I know for sure.I was only teasing her about returning Helen back.That evening, Helen sa
I can imagine how awkward it will be for her all alone in a new pack with no one she knows. A new place with new faces and new things entirely. The difference in the people might not be much and adaptation will not come so quick, but I’m scared my friend will have to go through an alone moment. I had to come up with an idea. I requested for her favorite maid to be sent to her as a gift from the entire green moss pack.Three days after she was away, we had always talked with each other through calls everyday.And she does not need to tell me that she was not okay before I could note it from her tone.Everything about her seems wrong and I can not stand what is going on with her.“Damon my love, don’t you think we should gift Lucy in the name of the pack a maid from within the pack? Especially her favorite she is used to here?” I said taking a seat next to him while he was relaxing his back on the sitting room couch.“What made you think of such? Do you think the maid will be willing
Before they left the pack, , I looked at Lucy and remember our good old days. On a evening that looks like every other evening but event made the difference, we sat to discuss about how we would like to build up our families. How we would raise our kids. We were not just friends with no vision, our friendship goes beyond two beautiful souls whiling away time. It was a beautiful thing having such a visionary next to one.“Selene, you know I will be traveling to my dream pack soon, but I’m scared to go” she said worriedly as she turned to look me in the eyes.“What could it be that is making you so scared?” I asked her almost immediately.“Your dream pack is a place you must get to. Either forcefully or peacefully but you must travel down there soon.” I told her.She has a lot of visions and goals and that is what I appreciate about her. But then, she is a pessimist. You will hardly see her think positive of achieving them. When. She spoke about her dream pack and I know she mean
Now that Lucy is a Luna, she needs to get prepared and I have to be supportive in every way I can. That is how I can be a true friend to her and perhaps, to repay her all the kindness she had giving me in the past.I knew Lucy was nervous after finding out that her mate was Alpha Philip. She never expected it, she had thought she wouldn't find her mate anymore after knowing Christian wasn't meant for her, even if he was a great friend.Or perhaps, she never expected someone that powerful as Alpha Philip to be mated with.She was hoping on a regular werewolf in any packs but to her shock, it was a noble man from the neighboring pack and a brother to Damon.I have to be a good friend and as I have been there, I have to help her settle down over there. I actually didn’t wanted to leave the green moss pack but there was nothing I could do. I'm beginning to miss her company.She has been of so much help to me and it's now I need to reciprocate.But has fate would have it, she holds powe
