Chapter 76|Two Weeks Later|The pack was peaceful again after many days of mourning. Everyone returned to their daily activities and the King continued to attend to the pack affairs while Jake waited patiently for his father to step down the throne for him. Olivia and Sarah also helped their masters the best way they could. Going on an errand and doing their daily activities. Jake made sure Sarah didn't leave his sight for long except when she had to return to her room. Within two weeks, he had shifters into his wolf in front of Sarah, shocking her in return. She couldn't believe he would and when he asked her to do the same, she refused and lied that her wolf was ill and wouldn't shift for some while. Jake agreed with her since the healer had also confirmed that Sarah was inner sick since the headache wouldn't cure and kept returning to her. Of course, the healer helped her make concoctions to the prince's command and most times when she had a headache, after using the medicine,
Chapter 77Jake walked out of the pack building with Sarah tagging along while his guards followed behind. There, they met Joe and Olivia, also going to do something at the servant quarters. "Where are you up to?" Joe asked Jake when they met themselves. Jake groaned, "My father told me to check on the new slaves," he relayed and Joe's eyes shifted to Olivia. He gave her a nod and she bowed to him. "Okay, I'm on my way to the servant quarters. If you need my assistance don't hesitate to reach out to me," Joe told him. "That is not a big deal," Jake implied and continued his way. While they took the root to the dungeon, some guards came running through the packed building and Jake stopped to know who was visiting the pack with guards ready to welcome the person. Just then, he smelled Alpha Logan, the same goes for Sarah. She smiled as they waited patiently for Alpha Logan to reach where they were. Alpha Logan's face curved into a smile too when he smelled Sarah. He pursued his pa
Seeing them laugh and chit-chat with one another made him sick. To avoid any more jealousy, he quickly left them alone, they should proceed with whatever they were doing. They looked good together and it pierced him deeply. He just couldn't imagine how Alpha Logan could get too close to Sarah when she was a slave. He was an Alpha, doesn't it upset him to see slaves around him? Maybe he was the only blood-headed person who wouldn't accept a slave. But it was hunting him down. He couldn't get over Sarah as he planned to. The more he resisted her, the more he saw himself rooting for her. All those times he spent with her that he couldn't hold her and call her his mate were very ragged for him. He had no idea that rejecting Sarah as his mate was the worst thing he had ever done. Has he done the wrong thing? What if she wasn't a slave like the other time, would he have rejected her?His mind didn't pull off from her thoughts as he made his way to the pack building. He kept thinking of what
"Are you trying to go back on your words now, Jake?" Diva questioned him, red stealing its way into her eyes. "Does that bother you?""You'll be dumb to do that. You're the future Alpha!"Jake sprang up from his seat, "Shut up!" He clasped, taking some steps towards her. "If you haven't been so evil, maybe I would've considered you my mate."Diva's laugh filled the room. She laughed a lot and Jake couldn't figure out why she was laughing. She tried her best to control her laughter but ended up talking between the laughs. "You're making excuses, Jake. Just because I attempted murder doesn't mean you should reject me," she uttered, then the laughter ended with a deep frown craved on her face. "I don't have to beat around the bush anymore. Let me be frank with you then. If I was going to mate with Sarah, wouldn't you have done the same thing knowing she's my mate?" He queried, unexpectedly. Diva's gaze left his face instantly and began to question herself too. Wouldn't she have done t
Sarah smelled him and tried to walk as fast as she could but she couldn't. She was so weak after watching the scene displayed clearly in front of her. She was downcasted thinking she already had Jake to herself. She had thought that he had started to acknowledge her as his mate but was she wrong all along? She wasn't sure because the way she saw them kissing wasn't the way he had kissed her. They weren't too intimidated and it seemed Diva had forced herself on him. Then his words echo inside her ear. "I'll mate with Diva and you'll be my maid and you'll keep doing what I want." She whispered and choked on her tears as she felt him getting closer to her. She wasn't ready to feel weak in front of him so he wouldn't think his actions had taken a toll on her. Jake got to her as soon as possible and crossed her path sending her to a halt in front of him. Pretending to be strong, she raised her head and their gaze met again. "Is there anything wrong, Master?" She requested, curling a fak
Jake's PovI stood dumbfounded listening to all that she said. I tried to reach out to her when I saw her striding away from me but I couldn't. My hand paused midway and I had no idea why it stopped. I seriously did want to choose not to let her go. I felt I couldn't do anything without her. Was I ready to let her off my side?I strutted to the same spot watching her leave in tears. She was my mate, and I was hers too, how forbidden for us to push ourselves aside. Would she finally reject me since I couldn't repel mine?Maybe we should finally go on our path. I didn't want to claim her as mine and I didn't want to hurt her. She was right, if I truly love her, maybe I should let her go. She won't be my maid any longer and I won't be the master that always torments her. At that point, I made up my mind to free her from me. I had given her a chance to be with anyone she would love to be with, be it Alpha Logan or any other person who would make her happy. Alas, I left where I was standi
Alpha Dan repeated his statement. "Alpha Logan requested your maid, your ex-mate, do you disagree?" he asked and Jake stared sternly at him. How could his father mention Sarah as his ex-mate in front of others present? His father arched his eyebrows at him when he wouldn't say anything and he had no choice but to speak. He faced Alpha Logan and took some steps toward him, stopping a few distances from him. "Do you mean, Sarah?" he requested and Alpha Logan found himself nodding his head. Jake also joined him in nodding his head, twisting his hands into a fist. Then he swirled back to face his father. "I don't have any obligations father, it's okay, he can have her since she's just a maid," he said and Beta Fred found himself speaking up. "Really? She's just your maid? You don't have anything to say about it?" Beta Fred questioned him and he swerved his head to the Beta. "Of course, Beta. I don't need her service any longer whereas, she'll no longer work for me again even if the Al
Sarah's body shook as the two dark wolves with gray eyebrows shining out like flaring radiant suddenly jumped towards her from nowhere inside the woods. She grabbed her robe and took to her heels making sure she kept a large distance from them but still they caught up with her since she was still in her human form. Her legs hit timber and she couldn't help but fall flat to the ground. She groaned in tears and tried standing up from where she fell but it was too late, the wolves were already roaring beside her. Her heart began to hit her chest in fear and she prayed silently for the moon goddess to come to her aid. She stayed like that, unable to face the wolves she couldn't tell if they were there to hurt her but seeing them following after her, she was sure she wasn't safe. The wolves finally surrounded her and she cried quietly as they sniffled all around her. Then, suddenly she heard one of the wolves talk. "Are you okay?"Without thinking twice, she swirled to face them and sat
The moment Alpha Logan sighted Olivia, for the first time, he recognised her to be his mate. "Oli… via…?" he called as they both goggled at each other the moment Olivia dropped from the chariot. Everyone who was watching wondered what was happening. They had no idea why the two of them were staring dazzling at each other. "I'm sorry I hid it from you," Olivia mumbled, as Alpha Logan began to take slow strides to where she was. "You knew?" he asked.Olivia nodded her head, "Yes. A long time ago."Now, Alpha Logan was standing in front of her, his eyes not leaving her for once. "Because of Sarah?" he questioned her again and this time Olivia only nodded at him, lowering her head, feeling all sad. To everyone utmost surprise, Alpha Logam pulled Olivia into a hug and in a seconds, he nudge at her neck and buried his cannines into her it, claiming her instantly. Olivia tried not to cry out as the pain gushes through her entire core while gasps escaped from people watching. It was the
"I will go with you, Luna," Olivia told Sarah who was busy arranging her things in her bag. Sarah twisted her head over her shoulder to look at her. "You don't have to feel bad for me, Olivia. I'm glad you really care a lot and there's no problem with you going with us," Sarah conveyed and Olivia jumped on her for a back hug. "I won't feel bad for you, you know why? We wouldn't have met if all these didn't happen," Oliva said and Sarah groaned at her. "Does that mean you are glad that my parents were killed?" Sarah inquired from her best friend and Olivia shook her head, making a face."That's not what I meant, Sarah. I'm trying to say that you and I are destined to meet each other," she pouted. Sarah raised her head from what she was packing and faced Olivia. "I like the fact that calling me Luna isn't permanent in your mouth," she teased and Olivia gasped. She had swore never to call Sarah by her name but yet she had not fulfil her promise. "It's came out unintentionally," Oliv
Jake stared widely at his mates who wouldn't stop crying out her eyes. Ever since the time she had returned from White Claws pack, she had been in bed, crying and he had tried to console her. When he had even asked her what was wrong, she had angrily yell at him and tell him everything he needed to know. "Now will you leave to cry?! What more can I do than this?!" Sarah had bellowed and he who got shock listening to everything she said had kept quiet unable to even utter a word. Sarah was the daughter to the former Alpha of White Claws pack. She was the real heir to the throne and no one knew until now. How could no one know about it? Sarah had the blood of an Alpha in her and no one had smelled it from her? How was that possible. It was until she laid down everything to him that he came back to his senses of being able to detect that she was truly an Alpha. The true heir to White Claws pack, very intriguing. He stared sorely at her. What could he do to stop her from weeping? She
"I'm only giving you a chance, Sarah. If Alpha Logan refuse to see you then you will leave instantly. I have decided to let you see him only because I feel he might come out if he heard you are around, is that clear?" Celine told Sarah as they raced on his horse, heading to the pack house. Sarah didn't utter as word. Water kept dropping from her eyes and she tried hard to stop it. All she did was pray silently that Alpha Logan wouldn't push her away. She pray he would forgive her this time even if it was once. As expected, the ride wasn't long and they were at the pack house in no time. On sighting her, the armies in the pack house all surrounded her and Celien again but when Celine gave them a sign, they all made way from his to pass through. When they got down from the horse, Celine took her hands and began to pull her with him into the pack house. Now Sarah's eyes were sore from crying so she stumbled unnecessary but Celine wouldn't care. She wasn't the Sarah he knew back them s
Sarah mounted on her horse and the other guards who were to go with her to White Claws pack did the same. She let out a heavy sigh when she looked up at the terrace to see Jake boring his eyes into her like as if he should come down and pull her back in. To avoid him changing his mind, Sarah instantly jerked on her horse and began to race away. The following night, she had been able to convince Jake, trying to make him see things why she had to go find out what was wrong with him. She told him she was never going to take long and was only going to greet him as a friend, nothing else. Jake had refused out of jealousy and out of fear that Sarah was never going to return.He had just ended a war with Alpha Logan or had it really ended? Was he sure Alpha Logan wasn't trying to play plank at them. He got to angry and confronted Sarah why she wouldn't obey his instruction. Why she decided to truth people and not see the consequences? Why she decided to be blogheaded? Yet, Sarah was able t
It had been days and news spread around the whole pack, reaching out to the other territory that Alpha Logan had refused to come out from his chamber for days. No one could tell what was happening. White Claws pack just shut down without knowing the real cause why their Alpha had refused to come out or why he wouldn't give them answers. It had passed the days when they had all planned to go for war and now everyone was downcasted to see that the person who was supposed to lead the war had refused to come out, what went wrong? Wasn't it Alpha Logan who had stood at the podium after after the ritual and told them he was going to get his revenge? Why then had be refused to come out? Was something wrong with him?All of these questions crammed through their mind and they all continued to murmurs within themselves that the information began to spread all around. It got to Eclipse pack and soon to the pack house. Sarah and Jake was going through the warehouse when they heard from maids go
It wasn't the first time his father was calling him son so he wasn't too amazed but he could sense that something was wrong, very wrong. He tried not to think of the fact that his father's sickness was much. He knew he couldn't conclude since if his father was really too sick, the pack healer would have reached out to him. "Did Gwen come attend to you?" he asked as he took his seat beside his father who was looking too lean and pale for his liking. "Gwen was here some minutes ago and he'll be bac soon after he gets what I asked him to get," Alpha Sid answered solemnly that made Alpha Logan convinced that something was really wrong. His father would never talk to him that way. He was always too strict and doesn't maintain his smile just the way he was doing to him now. He got the urge to hold his father's hand and he took it as he began to make soft caress on it. "Tell me father, how do you feel and why have you called me?" Alpha Logan asked. Alpha Sid shifted comfortably on his bed
|White Claws Pack| Alpha Jake stood in front of the burning woods where the dead were laid on. As the fire continued to burn so was also his heart burning. He could not believe that he was actually standing to see his pack members dead again. He just couldn't imagine that there would be an unprepared war. Jake had just brought his armies unnoticed to fight him when he did nothing wrong. What could have gone wrong? Why would Jake accuse him of burning down their warehouse when he knew nothing about it. Was he sure Jake was even telling the truth? Or he just wanted to destroy his pack. Alpha Logan shut his eyes closed at the thought as anguish swept over him. He was in pain, in agony and also in rage. He was furiously bitter. Everything to him doesn't seemed right and he was confused. He had lost his pack members, a lot of them due to the attack from Eclispe pack. He had lost his crops, his animals, important buildings in the pack, it was awful. How could everything had turned agains
It was late in the night and the death festival was held. As usual, everyone gathered in front of the pack house to pay their respect to those that had left them again. Those who was mourning continued to while those who were able to take in the situation, stayed calm as they awaited their Alpha. Sarah watched as Jake threw his robe over his shoulder ready to attend to the funeral rite. She couldn't find a word to say to him. After she had kissed and he didn't reciprocate, she then decided to left him off. He took a nap while she had tried to think of what to do but nothing was coming her way. There was nothing to say to him in that kind of manner. Sarah was quiet till he was done and when he began to haul his way out, she also took her robe and flung it around her shoulder. Together, they both headed to the terrace where Jake took his way to. She had no idea why he doesn't like going down for the ritual, he prefer to stay t the terrace. They both got there and the people greeted t
