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.

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, the Lycan King would definitely have people watching me to see if he had made the right decision. The last thing I would want is for him to send a messenger to tell me that he wanted to see me. Then, I'd know that I had

    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 say one thing and mean 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? I

    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 lette

    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

    VALFREDI wanted to move but I knew that the old man wasn't kidding when he said he would use his knife..“I thought you said you already had your answer.”He was standing very close to me.“Yes, I did. But I want to hear it from you. Who sent you?”The old man seemed like he had a lot of sense So i didn't think I would have to worry about them snitching.“The king. The king sent me.”He stayed like that for a while and then moved back.“Are you sure?”“Your knife was at my throat. You think I'll want to risk lying?”He laughed and sat back down in his chair. How old was this man?I mean, with all my training I didn't hear when he got up and came all the way here. He must have some training as well.“I don't know why but I trust you.”He sure as hell didn't act like it.“But the key is not there.”No shit.He seemed like he knew a lot of secrets around this place so I don't think I should worry about this.He removed the chain from around his neck and there was a key as the pendant.“

    VALFREDI told Roshida the truth that I didn't have a plan. She understood immediately and said that we would find a way.The annoying thing now was I didn't know who else to being in on this plan..“Sonia doesn't mind running away. Infact, I think she'll like it more.”Sonia, it was then.Roshida said she'll tell her everything while I took care of the rest.I'd given myself two days to plan everything..I didn't know when these people planned to go on that mission and I would most definitely be a part of them..Borge won't let me go so I had to move fast. But we had to be careful because the walls had ears.I decided to go check out the place that Clyde has told me about . My job as a guard will help me scout out the place but the thing is being caught..he said it was in an open place and I'd always see people there.He was right. I told Roshida about the place and she wanted to come along with me but I couldn't risk it. It would bring too much attention to us.There were houses arou

    VALFREDWe eventually stopped walking. It seemed like it was a different part of the kingdom because despite the fact that it was still quite cold and there was snow, there was another color besides white and black.It was quite a small pack and Borge had already said that we wouldn't have difficulty in raiding the place. They did have an Alpha but they also had a small army which meant that by the time they brought their men, it wouldn't mean anything if they wanted to invade them.“We can't get all the information we need from out here. We're sending two of you in. You'll have to blend in and find out what you can.”I didn't want to do that. I think staying out here was safer for me.“Reagen! Clyde! You'll go”.Screw my life. Why did I have to go?“You guys look like the leash suspicious people here.”When I looked at the pool of people to choose from, I realized Borge was right. It'll be obvious that they weren't part of them.“You are to find out how close they are to the Lycan K

    ROSHIDAWith the king's promise at heart, I returned back to that place knowing that I had nothing to worry about.I had officially gone to plead my case and now, he knew about it. All I had to wait was for the letter of approval to be delivered. Then, I would pack every last thing that belonged to me in this house and leave without looking back.Speaking of the things that belonged to me, Sophia and I decided that it wàs a good idea to take an inventory of what I had so I'd know if those people had played any games recently.We spent at least two days doing that because it was not easy walking around the house and pack, looking at things without being seen or noticed.When we were eventually done, I still had a significant amount of property and it warmed my heart that I would return to my father's house with something to my name.“Did the King say when you'd hear from him?”I wanted to ask but I didn't want to seem too forward. He had already done a lot for me by letting me get div

    ROSHIDAThe King was silent.“Do you realise what you are asking, young lady? You want to leave your husband? A highly decorated Alpha? Firstly, do you realise the implications that carry?”Screw the implications.“My King, I've thought about it and I'm ready to bear it all. Nothing is too much to bear as long as I get to leave that house..I've suffered more than enough and I deserve better. I'm ready to face it all”.I looked at the prince and he he gave me a small nod.I remembered what he said earlier.“Don’t let him win this.”I wouldn't. I didn't want to leave him in the first place.I just needed him to be convinced. If I can plead mycase to him and he accepts it, then I'm fine.“Roshida, that's your name right? The reason your father sent you to military school, if I remember clearly, was because you were born without a wolf. He didn't want you to be trampled upon. I don't want that either for you.”I was wolfless but I wasnt useless.I felt more at ease, like I was talking to

    VALFREDI knew since we left early, it would be cold. But not this cold.Even when I stepped out of the tent to meet up with the other guys who were huddling up with each other for warmth, I didn't realize how cold it was.”Wanted to make sure you got enough kisses for the trip, eh Regean?”All the guys laughed and I just shook my head.“Gonna need some fuel for the journey. It's a long way, you know.”“Yeah, sucks to leave your wife. I'll never leave a woman like that. You'd have to kill me first.”I felt that way too but what was I to do? She'd already gotten into trouble. I didn't want to make it equal by getting into trouble too.I had no reason to be leaving the pack. I'd rather stay here and gather information with Roshida.“Yeah man, I feel that way too. Are you leaving soon or what?”Just then, Borge emerged from the main house accompanied by some other guards. Just a few feet away was the place I'd rather be.“I'm sure youve all been briefs on why you're here. We have a very

    ROSHIDA I woke up as soon as he did. Maybe it's because my brain already knew that he was leaving or because I was laying on him and I knew when he moved to get off the bed. I stayed awake while he moved around the room trying to get ready. “Borge said to meet him at the gate.” To be honest, I didn't want him to leave. He was one of the only people that made being here less terrible.. I guess Sophia was right when she said that he was a good person. She was a good judge of character. Before I married Felix, she'd told me that there was something off about him. I thought it was just because she didn't know him, I mean, I didn't know him either so of course something would be off about him. But everything had been wrong with him. I wanted to walk him to the gate so I could say goodbye to him but I didn't want to be out yet. I might bump into the Matron. “Would you be fine without me?” “

    VALFRED “Did something happen?” She shook her head. “Everything is fine. Why do you ask?” I knew there was something wrong. Her attitude had changed. “Are you mad at me because I forced you to eat?” She turned to me.“What? No, you were just trying to help. I just-” She took a deep breath obviously thinking about whether she should say something or not. “Coast came in her today, saying things about you and it got me mad.” I don't know what that bastards issue was. I knew that he had eyes for Roshida but I didn't know it had gotten to the point where he would come in when I was away just to see her. “You don't have to let him bother you. He's a bastard. He won't disturb you again.” I'll deal with him when I get the chance to. Maybe now was my chance. “Give me a moment. I'll be back.” I left the room and went out into the main tent. If he had an i

    ROSHIDA“What are you trying to say, my prince?”“Gosh, not again. Don't tell me we're back to that. I thought we were past that.”I thought we were past it too but clearly….“Ro, listen. I'm not trying to accuse you of anything. I'm just trying to help you out..you haven't eaten anything in days and you expect me not to do anything about it?”I wasn't in the mood to talk about this.“I don't know what you want me to say. There are other people who haven't eaten too. Why don't you bug them?”“Because they are not my wife! You are. I thought I told you that it'll be fine. Why aren't you eating? I'm not trying to fight with you or blame you when you're the victim. I take full responsibility for what happened that day and if I could take the pain too, I would.”I wanted to say something but the words failed me. I thought he wouldn't notice. He was always very busy with work and I thought it would be an oversight for him..“Sonia told you, didn't she?”He didn't even try to deny it.“She
