FELIX

After dinner, I sat at the table for a while thinking about everything.

I was going to get a lot of hate for doing this but in the end, everything will be fine.

As long as the King hadn't finalised finalised the divorce, it meant that we were still married and anything that I wanted, I could take.

So, if I wanted to take everything she owned because she was my wife, i could.

Right now, there were eyes on me from my enemies, hoping that I will fail in my new position as Alpha and they will be able to tell the Lycan King that they had been right when they said I wasn’t fit to be Alpha.

It had taken me six years to finally get to this position. It had also taken a lot of victorious wars, sucking up and being on the good side of the Lycan King to finally be here and I won't let anything make me lose this position.

I was also trying to get allies on my side which meant that their eyes were on me because they wanted to know if they would be making a good investment.

Then finally, th

    FELIX“I don't understand you, Kelly. What's wrong all of a sudden? Why're you mad?”“I'm mad because you can't seem to understand how serious things are. You said it yourself that things are not looking good for your family anymore. And you think that the right thing to do is to let go of your only source of income?” This was still hard for me to understand. Women always said one thing and meant another. “But Kelly, you don't like Roshida right? You said it yourself yesterday when you came back into the room. So you still want her money?”She gave me a look when she turned around. “Don’t be ridiculous, Felix. First off, I had no idea she was the breadwinner of this family. You didn't tell me that you were that poor.”I held a finger up to her. “I'm not poor. Point of correction, I just don't have a lot of money. She has the inheritance of her parents and that's why she's rich. Her father was a really powerful Alpha before he died.”“How did you even get her to agree to marry you?

    ROSHIDAI originally didn't want to go into his office but then, when I heard him and his mother talking about me and how he had a meeting with the Elders to discuss the rejection, I figured I needed him to see me and let him see that I didn't care about it. He could do whatever he wanted. When I snatched the letter from him and he got all defensive, I knew I had to read it. I didn't know what he was planning behind my back. The letter was not too lengthy and it was very straight to the point. “Dear Felix,If everything does go according to plan and you end up rejecting Roshida as planned, make sure to take everything that belongs to her. She is ungrateful and she needs to learn not to bite the hand that has fed her since she came here. She will have to learn the hard way to not be stingy with what she has. Make sure that you take everything from her and strip her of everything. Remember she's the reason things aren't going so well anymore.Your Luna,Kelly.”I dropped the letter

    ROSHIDA“We don’t plan to keep you. You didn’t do anything good as a Luna so someone else will be taking your place. All that you need to leave behind is some money for the pack so that a few things will be fixed. I mean, it won’t make sense for you to leave with everything.”I'm very sure that within two months of being married to Felix, Kelly would be fed up.They were overbearing and self centered. But oh well, she wouldn't be able to get out of it because she had asked for this and now, she finally got it. I turned to face Grace because I had something to say to her. She kept repeating something over and over again and it was pissing me off.“You say I can’t leave with the money. But it’s my money so what business do you have with it? You say I’m not the Luna but you want my money. If I'm not a good Luna, then surely my money isn't good either. Things can’t work that way. If I’m leaving, then I’m taking everything with me.”She turned to Felix as if asking him to say something to

    ROSHIDAShe couldn’t look me in the eye and answer that question.“You can't hurt me. You're the Luna so you can't touch me. If you do, that's a crime.”Now all of a sudden, I'm the Luna. Felix seemed to be her safe place because she went to stand behind him. Like if I wanted to touch her, he would be able to protect her. He looked at me like he was about to attack and I could see that there was a lot going through his mind. His stance seemed suspicious and I knew he was going to do something. What I didn't expect though was for him to transform. Right there in the house and in front of all of us, he shifted and the first move he made was to me, snapping his jaws hard. There was little to no range of movement since his huge form had taken over the room and I knew that I had to get out of his reach and what better way of controlling a wolf than sitting on its head. One jump off his table, off the wall and I was seated right on his neck. He didn't seem to like that and he kept tryin

    ROSHIDAAs he stood in the room, his huge form taking over the doorway, his eyes scanned the room in disgust. Felix's shifting had made the room a mess and it was expected that the Lycan King wouldn't want to be in a place like this. Felix and his family rearranged themselves and stood on their feet. “My King. What are you doing here?” The Lycan King frowned at him and I gave Felix a look. “Are you asking me questions now? Don't I have the right to be where I want to be anymore?”He bowed his head. “That’s not what I mean, my King. My apologies if it came off wrong. It's an honor to have you in my pack.”“It seems I came at the right time. Things were seeming to get out of hand.”“I don't understand you, your highness. What do you mean?”“In the past few weeks, certain reports have reached my ears and I felt the need to come in person and address them. It seems to me that you have taken another woman as your intended Luna.”Felix's resolve fell and he looked away. “I’m sure I c

    ROSHIDASensing the tension in the room, Felix pushed his mother behind him and stepped forward. “My King, what my mother is trying to say is that giving her all these assets and telling her to rule on her own is like giving enemies an invitation to attack her. At least, if she stays here, she'll have people to protect her and all she has. The Blue Ridge Fortress, included.”It just occurred to me that he had been eyeing the piece of land too. The bloody bastard. Just how smart did he think he was? “Maybe you don't understand what I'm saying. It is not possible! Your divorce is final, you can not have her here again!” He turned to me. “I expect you to be out of this place within the next twenty four hours. Gather your people and everything that belongs to you and leave this pack. Failure to do so will be counted as disobedience and since you're a Luna now, you will be held accountable for your actions.”Oh, he didn't need to tell me twice. As soon as he leaves, I'm going to be out

    FELIXI'd been hoping that it would be a dream but I woke up the next morning and she was truly gone. I wanted to just stay in my room all day and just think about what the hell I was going to do but I knew that I would think about it too much so I went down to my office after breakfast. In just a matter of an hour, things changed drastically and I still couldn't believe it. After everything yesterday, I had to explain to the people why I'd gathered them earlier. Of course, I couldn't tell them the real reason I'd called them here. I'd come up with some lame excuse and tell them that I'll reach out to them when I have something more to tell them. Then I returned home and sat down in my office. It looked like a hurricane had hit it. How could the Lycan King do such a thing without first informing me? I thought he would first invite the both of us to appeal our case before passing the final verdict. But he just did it based on what he heard or what Roshida had told him. Fiona ha

    FELIX“So you're trying to say that she beat you up? But she doesn't have a wolf and you're an Alpha and a little warrior. How's that possible?” The fact that I was narrating this story again was telling on my ego. I wanted to forget that it even happened. A mere woman could defeat a hero like me. If anyone heard it, my reputation would be ruined. I had to ask Fiona to help me massage my body since I couldn't get the doctor. It was like I'd been beaten for several hours. It was a stupid thing I'd done, hitting myself against the wall to get her off me. I should have just shaken her off instead of putting myself in harm's way. Now, she was the one unharmed. “She apparently received training as a child. I had no idea her father trained her to be a warrior since she didn't have a wolf. She didn't show me that part of her when I first married her.” Maybe if she had shown me that side of her, I would have seen her in a different light. I'd always thought she was just some weak woman

    ROSHIDA “Rub the chest. Make sure that the baby cries. Spank him! Any thing you have to do..” I did all she said I should do but the baby wasn't crying and Brianna wasn't moving. “Brianna? Hey, wake up! Your baby's here.” She didn't move. Her body was limp. Now I was with a baby that wasn't crying and a mother who wasnt moving. I was about to start crying. In a fit of desperation, I spanked that baby on his buttocks so hard and he started crying. The way relief washed over my body, I couldn't explain it. “Screw the ambulance. Sophia, do you know how to drive? Please, get down to the park. Um, the name is Riverdale. Please get down here as soon as possible. I need you to help me get to the hospital. Brianna isn't moving or responding.” I tried shaking her more times but she didn't move. I even placed the baby on her so that maybe she will move but she didn't.

    ROSHIDA I turned around immediately and the pregnant woman was on the floor holding her waist. “Please, please help me. I don't know what's going on.” I rushed over to her, discarding the drink in my hand. “Hey, it's okay. Just like down flat on the floor. It's okay.” I tried to call for people around but it was today of all days that there was no one here. I looked down at her legs and figured that she was in labor. The wetness on her dress said it all. She was panicking and screaming loudly. “What’s your name?” “Brianna!” “Okay Brianna, we're going to do something. I need you to take deep breaths for me okay. Take very deep breaths. Screaming is only going to make it worse.” I didn't know what the hell I was saying but if I panicked, she would notice it and right now, one of us had to act like we knew what

    ROSHIDA I expected to see him at the dinner table but he wasn't there. It's not because I wanted to speak to him. I had nothing to say to him actually but I just wanted to see him. His parents didn't seem to be worried about his absence so why should I? They probably knew where he was. “Roshida, I thought you had plans to leave today. What changed?” I'd forgotten that I hadnt told them. “My apologies. It skipped my mind to tell you but I'd like to stay an extra week. If it's fine with you.” The King was the first who spoke up. “Yes! That is fine. We would be pleasured to have you stay here. Don't bother about your pack or the Fortress. I'll take care of everything.” There was no way I wouldnt worry for my people. They had been put into my care and I had to live up to expectations.

If you get involved, it'll just be worse because they'll think I came to report them to you.” “Do you care?! It's your life and Laura's life we're talking about. If you don't care about yourself, think about your sister. What will you do when they start coming after her? Let me help you.”I knew that what I was saying was falling on deaf ears. “I can't do that. Thank you though. I'm sure I'll figure it out. You don't have to worry.” That was bullshit and at the end, I'll eventually do what I want. I couldn't let him deal with this alone. I knew what those people could do when they didn't get what they wanted. And I won't let them do it with Reggie. “How about you stay off work for now? Just stay home and make sure to lock your doors. Don't go seeing Laura so they won't figure out where she is. You can come stay here too if you want. I'm sure mum would be happy having you around.” “If I

    VALFRED “Why is it my fault? It's not my fault you decided to act like you were speaking to a woman. Besides, why on earth were you smiling at my texts? It's weird.” I picked up a boom and threw it at him. “Youre the one who was telling me about a girl who thought you were handsome. The things you were saying were funny. Wasn't I supposed to laugh?” He dropped Kiki down. “Yes, you were supposed to laugh-” “So what's my fault-” “-Only after, you had heard her out. You like this woman. Why on earth doesn't she have your full attention? She's speaking to you and you're giggling on the phone? She must have felt humiliated and probably like you didn't want to hear what she had to say. I would have walked away too.” Great, so now, I was the asshole. The reason why I didn't look at her when she started talking was because I didn't want her to feel shy. I wa

    ROSHIDAHe took a deep breath and stared back out the window. “A lot of things trouble me. As a king, it's almost part of my job to worry about a lot. Sometimes, things I can't even control. But this one, this one holds a big place in my heart.”I could see the evident worry etched on his face as the wrinkles formed on his forehead and the sound of his voice seemed to fade out. “Its about my son. I worry greatly for my son.” That was the last thing I was expecting him to say. I remember when ee just got back from the Rogue pack and Valfred told me that there was a mole in the cabinet. I thought it was something related to that. “The Prince? Is there something wrong? Is there something wrong with the Prince?” He smiled but it didn't reach his eyes. “I don't think so. Well, I don't know yet. I fear that my son may be…soft. If that's the word to use.”Valfred, soft? Not in a million years. I didn't want to laugh but I couldnt hold it. He looked at me, obviously confused by my lau

    ROSHIDA“I didn't want to say anything tonight. I'll say it at breakfast.”He dropped his phone and looked at me .“It’s fine. You can tell them when you want. There's no pressure. I'm sure they'll be glad to have you here for longer.”I knew that but I didn't want to take advantage of it because despite him knowing my father, I was still a Luna with a job to do. Besides, I did miss my house. “About earlier today, I want to apologize.” His phone started pinging and he picked it up and looked at it, smiled and then dropped it. “I’m listening to you.”“I guess I'm sorry for acting like you did something so wrong that no one else had done. I just felt so awkward and I let it show a bit too much. I wasn't mad or anything like that and-”His phone pinged again and he picked it up and looked at it, smiling as he typed. I guess what I was saying wasn't important. “That’s all. I'll see you tomorrow.”I stood up and left him there. Maybe I caught him at a bad time. “Roshida!” I could h

    ROSHIDAI ended up just eating the rice and forcing it down with the juice in front of me.Before I knew it, I had almost finished the entire jar for I realized it.Safe to say that rice and peas wasn't my besteal but Sophia didn't seem to have an issue with it and she just kept eating. I didn't want to be rude and not finish eating.No one noticed me or so i thought.“I take it you're not a fan of the meal?”The Queen was always watching me.“It's not that. I just…I can't even say anything. It's not what is normally eat.”I really hoped that she wouldn't be offended. It was like ever since I came into her home, I'd been so picky with her food and oftentimes, people won't be happy with that.“You don't have to apologize, my love. It's okay to be picky with what you eat. Even if you didn't say anything, your face spoke a lot. Your eyes, even more.”The King laughed.”Just like you, My Queen. Your face tells a lot.”The Queen gave him a knowing look.“ Tell me exactly what it is you fe

    ROSHIDAAfter he left, I just stood there, looking at the drink that he had dropped on the table.How did he know that I liked that drink?I picked it up and stared at it like I hadn't been looking at that bottle all my life.He had a point. I wasn't mad at him nor did I think he had anything wrong. It was just…awkward for me.I didn't think that something like that could happen between the prince and I and the thought of it alone made me uncomfortable, I guess?I didn't see him like that in any way. I just saw him as a friend and someone who I had gone on a mission with.But then I wonder if I would have allowed him to kiss me if the King hadn't walked in.“Why do you have that look on your face?”I looked at Sophia who was putting my bags together.I still hadn't told her what had happened between Valfred and I. “Valfred and I almost kissed.”She didn't say anything nor did she appear shocked.“Sophia, did you hear me?”She nodded without turning around.“I did.
