They arrived at a waterfall. With the moon already out and painting a beautiful scene with its soft glow.“It's beautiful”. Avery said in admiration.“If you think this is beautiful, wait until you see the inside”. Dean said with a smirk.“What do you mean by inside”? Avery asked in confusion.“Just follow me”. He said with a smile.Avery obliged with Cabrera and Solution behind her.“You two stay here”. He said coldly, turning to glare at them.“Why”? Avery asked in confusion.“The location I'm going to is meant for your eyes only and since this dinner was for the two of us, having two extra people wouldn't be too nice. Don't you think”? He replied.“I guess you're right”. Avery replied before turning to Solution and Cabrera. “You two wait here okay”? She said.“We will do just that, your majesty. They replied in unison before stepping back.“Okay then, let's go”. Avery said to Dean who nodded his head.Dean led her down a path which went behind the waterfall. Stepping into a cave be
Dean and Avery laid side by side in exhaustion.“That was fun”. Dean said happily.“You didn't cum”. Avery replied.“That is true but seeing you that way was very fulfilling”. Dean responded as he turned and stared at her. “You're very beautiful Avery”.Hearing that, Avery blushed, “you're only teasing me”. She said as she turned away.“Actually, I'm not”. Dean said as he laid lightly over her, his chest brushing against her breasts. “I don't think you look at yourself in the mirror that much. Actually, when last did you look at the mirror”? He asked.“Um….I can't really remember”. Avery replied bashfully.“Is there a mirror in the room I gave you”? He asked with a frown.“Um…no”. Avery shook her head in response.“I'll have someone get you a mirror as soon as we get back”. Dean said. “I can't stand the fact that someone as beautiful as you does not know exactly how beautiful they are”. “Thank you”. Avery said bashfully.“Now, I think we need to start going”. Dean said as he got up a
Isabella woke up today feeling really angry. For some reason, her dad wanted her and her mum to go collect the bride price.“I hate Avery so much”! She said in anger as she walked down the stairs for breakfast.“Why is your face that way”? Her father asked as she sat down on the dining chair.“Father, you know why”. She said with a frown.“I am sorry, I am getting old so I don't know why you're annoyed.” Isabella's father, Harold said.“Father,” Isabella began. “Why do we have to be the ones going to collect the bride price?" she asked. “We have servants that are probably lazing around doing nothing that would've done this job instead of us”. She said.“That is true Isabella”, Harold said with a nod of his head. “But think about it, alliances between packs is very rare and it's not an uncommon occurrence for a particular pack to be eliminated while another pack that's related to it by marriage or some sort of agreement watches on.”“What does that have to do with this”? Isabella asked
Avery came back feeling relieved, sitting down on her bar stool, she noticed the glass cup filed with wine before her.“I didn't order for a refill”. She said with a confused expression.“The lady you came with ordered a refill for you, your majesty”. The bartender responded.Turning to stare at her sister in surprise, she found it difficult to believe. “Do you mean this lady right here”? She asked, pointing at Isabella.“Yes your majesty”. He replied. “Did you come with anyone else? I'll have to take their order right away”.“No, no”. Avery responded with a smile. “She was the only one I came with it”.“Okay your majesty”. He replied. “Will you need anything else”?“I would not, thank you very much”. Avery replied before staring at the cup on the table before her.“What is the problem sister”? Isabella asked as she brought her chair closer. “If you do not want this particular brand anymore, I could tell the bartender to get you something else”. She said.“That's not it Isabella”. Ave
Silence descended upon the bar as Dean walked into it, his footsteps echoing around.“I asked a question, what is going on here”? He asked.Isabella hearing that spoke up hurriedly. “It's my sister, she rejected the glass of wine I got for her and she called me evil”. She replied.“Is that true Avery”? Dean asked with a frown, turning to stare at her.“That is not true your highness,” she replied with a shake of her head. “She…”“Why do we need to hear what she has to say”? Isabella asked, interrupting Avery as she tried to speak.“Do not interrupt anyone when they are talking”! Dean bellowed, causing Isabella to shrink her head in fear. “Go ahead my dear”. He Said.“Thank you my love”. Avery replied with a smile before narrating everything that had happened in the bar up untill that very moment.“So you're telling me that she is forcing you to drink that wine I'm seeing in that glass”? He asked, walking to the cup and picking it up before swirling the contents.“Yes your majesty”. Av
Margaret and Isabella stood before Harold, the alpha of their pack with fear in their eyes, Harold had always given the impression of a very weak and frail werewolf due to his sickness but the aura wafting off him made them forget that he was sick. It was at that moment, they remembered that he was still their alpha despite him being sick.“What exactly happened where you both went to”? Harold asked, leaning forward to glare at them“Well…we…got…” Margaret said, shaking in fright.“Speak coherently”! Harold snapped.“Yes Alpha”. Margaret replied, snapping at attention. “We got the dowry from king Dean.” She replied.“And?” Harold asked, raising an eyebrow.“We came back”. Margaret replied with a forced smile.Hearing that, Harold relaxed into his chair with his eyes turning to glare at Isabella. “so nothing happened in the pack that is worth talking to me about”? He asked“Well, we might have…” Isabella began.“Nothing happened alpha”. Margaret said, interrupting Isabella.Harold sta
As Damon lay on his bed, he felt his body in untold agony as he tried to lay in a way which would reduce the pain.Each breath he took was like a knife passing through his nose into his lungs and slicing it open.“Looks like I also have some broken ribs”. He hissed in pain.Looking down at his body, he noticed the bandages all around it, hiding the canvas of cuts and bruises all over his body which was a testament to his ordeal at the hands of Dean.“I never thought it'll end like this”, he thought to himself. “I knew I would lose but not this badly”.Shaking his head sadly, he winced in pain before staring at the ceiling above him. Recalling the event that led to his predicament, he sighed.“I wonder if Avery is okay''. He said quietly to himself.“I think you need to start worrying about yourself alpha”. His Beta, Victor walked into the room.“Nice to see you too Victor”. Damon replied with a roll of his eyes.“You know I am happy to see you alpha”. Victor said with a disarming smil
Avery stared at her two maids who had looks of fear on their faces. “What do I need to know about”? She asked.“It's about the servants in this pack and the alpha, who is also his husband, his majesty, king Dean.” Cabrera replied.“What about him”? Avery asked with a look of skepticism.“Your majesty,” Solution began with a slight bow, “I understand that you might not believe us but please know that whatever we say here is the truth and we gain absolutely nothing by lying to you”. She said.“Actually, we stand to lose a lot by lying about this and I hope you understand that your majesty”. Cabrera chimed in.“I understand”. Avery replied with a nod. “Go ahead”.Solution and Cabrera looked at themselves before nodding to each other, “your majesty, how do you think I and my sister here came to be in this pack”? Cabrera asked.“You guys were bought as slaves right”? Avery asked, glancing at them.“Not really”. Cabrera replied, shaking her head. “We were taken from our mother's womb as bab
Melody, left with the desire to prove her worth, she set out to feed and care for the starving community, working tirelessly, distributing food and supplies, and even helped with medical care for the sick and injured. The people did not trust her at first but with time, grew to trust and appreciate her efforts. As the days passed, Melody gained the community's trust and admiration. Then, a day came and she announced that she would host a grand party to celebrate their newfound hope and unity. The people were overjoyed, and eagerly accepted the invitation.Unknown to them, Melody had an evil plan given to her by the cult leader. She had been instructed by the goddess to kill all of them with the condition that she had made them trust her and collect the community's hatred and suffering in a special container. Melody poisoned the food and drinks, ensuring that every single person would suffer a painful and agonizing death.As the party began, the people ate and drank, unaware of the h
Melody woke up today feeling happy. Today was the day she started the plan the goddess wanted her to carry out. Knowing fully well that she had to put on her best clothes, she wore the fitting jumper suit her mother got for her with a smile on her face.“This will do just nicely”. She said happily.“Where are we going, your majesty”? A voice asked behind her, causing her to jump in fright.Turning around, she saw her maid standing behind her, fidgeting.“I almost forgot you were with me”. Melody said in annoyance. “What does where we are going have anything to do with you”? She asked.“I…asked because I wanted to be able to serve you better”. The maid replied.Melody hearing that shook her head before turning to her mirror. “Still annoying as usual”. She said.At that moment, her door opened with her father, Magnus walking into her room.“Hey dad”! Melody exclaimed as she turned towards him in annoyance. “cant you knock”? She asked.“I am the alpha so why should I”? He asked with a sh
Melody nodded, a small smile playing on her lips. "Let's go, Father. I'm ready to face that creepy old artifact." She said. “Heavens know exactly what he wants”.As they left the room, the shadows seemed to shift behind with them, as if they were being watched by unseen eyes. The air was thick with tension, and Melody could feel the weight of her father's gaze on her.Walking out of the castle, that entered their vehicle and drove off to see him in a secluded cave in the mountains.Arriving at the mouth of the cave, they walked in, passing through the entrance with Melody having an annoyed expression on her face.“Can't this guy just leave me alone”? She thought to herself.At that moment, they arrived at the end of the path, opposite them and Melody knocked on the cave wall with her knocks following a specific pattern.Then the wall opened like a door after which Melody and her father stepped into the room behind it.As they arrived at the cult leader's chambers, Melody could feel a
“What gift did our goddess give you though”? Magnus asked curiously.“Shouldn't you be interested in knowing what I had to do to get this power and everything related to it”? Melody asked.“Of course I am interested in all that but I can only say one thing at a time”. Magnus responded with a shrug. “But go ahead and tell me everything”. He said.“Well,” Melody began. “You're aware that the cult leader has always been of the opinion that I was important to the sect right”? She asked.“Of course I am”. Magnus replied with a frown. “He has been very vocal about it even when he became borderline creepy as a result”. He said.“Yeah, you didn't seem to pleased with his fascination with me”. Melody said with a smile on her lips.“Why won't I”? Magnus asked, visibly agitated. “He was a creep who was always buzzing around you while trying to convince you to do something I couldn't even begin to understand”.“I did do what he wanted me to do and that's how I was able to get that power from our
Melody returned from her father's kingdom, her mind buzzing with schemes and strategies. She was determined to bring Avery down and secure her own position as queen.As she settled back into the castle, she got news that Avery's father, the alpha, was growing weaker by the day with his curse worsening. At that moment, he couldn't move or talk a lot or he would start coughing for a long time and he was feeling too weak to move his arms, he had to be taken care of like an invalid.Melody saw an opportunity and pounced. She began to make life even more difficult for Avery, taunting her and making snide comments about her father's condition. Dean, still under Melody's spell, joined in, making Avery's life a living hell.Avery tried to focus on her father's care, but it was hard to do with Melody and Dean constantly undermining her. She began to doubt herself, wondering if she was truly cut out for this role.As the days passed, Avery's father grew weaker and weaker. Melody and Dean conti
“I found myself in a dark in a twisted forest, with the trees looming above me like skeletal fingers.” Dean said.“I was walking through the forest, but my legs felt heavy and unresponsive,” he said. “Almost like something heavy was tied to it”.“Did you check if there was anything tied to your leg”? Melody asked.“I did and no, there was nothing tied to my leg”. Dean replied with a shake of his head.“It was just heavy like I was trudging through quicksand.” He added.Melody hearing that folded her arms with a thoughtful expression on her face. “What happened next”? She asked.“Suddenly, Avery appeared in front of me, her eyes glowing with an otherworldly light.” Dean replied.“Did she look threatening”? Melody asked.“I couldn't put a finger on it but despite the fact that she only stood quietly, facing me, I felt that there was something really off.Flashback…."Avery?" Dean called out, his voice shaking. "What's going on?"Avery didn't respond. Instead, she reached out and touched
Melody was in an awful mood today. Avery managed to escape from her grasp due to the noise from an argument between two maids. And for some reason, she has been unable to locate the whereabouts of her husband, all these made it feel like she was on the verge of exploding.“Aren't you eating your meal, your majesty”. A maid said from behind her. “It's getting cold”. She added.Hearing her voice made her feel irritated so she turned around in annoyance. “Who gave you permission to speak”? She asked.“Well,” the maid began, nervously. “I felt that you've been staring at your meal for quite a while and if you do not eat it soon enough, it will get cold”. She replied.“And do I look like I needed your sympathy or concern”? Melody asked, her face twisted in anger.“I just thought….”the maid began.“That's it”! Melody exclaimed, pushing her chair away from the dining table and getting on her feet before turning around and slapping the maid across the face.“Your majesty”! The maid exclaimed
Avery woke up feeling awful. Raising her head up, she turned to call out to Cabrera and Solution only to remember what they did to her which caused her to frown with tears appearing in her eyes.“Why did they have to do this to me”? She asked herself as tears dripped down her face.“Now, I'm just alone here”. She said with a sigh, as she stood up from the bed and walked towards her bathroom.A couple of minutes later, she came out and sat before her vanity mirror. Looking at her face, she remembered all the things that were thrown at her with raw eggs being the most.Avery shuddered as the memories played in her head all over again. The smell of rotten eggs on her body and the numerous other things they hit her with.Sighing in exhaustion, she stood up from her chair. “What am I to do today”? She asked herself. Normally, she either would've supervised some servants as they performed some chores around the house but since that was a task for the queen, she didn't know if she could sti
The sun was beginning its trip across the horizon when Cabrera and Solution approached Andrea's home with Cabrera knocking on the door once they arrived.In response, the door was opened and Andrea looked at the two of them with a critical look in her eye. “You two look like you've seen a ghost”. She said.“If you knew what we've been through the past few hours, you'll understand that you aren't far off”. Solution replied.“Come on in then”. Solution said as she opened the door wide to let them in.Stepping into the building, they sat down on the sofa.“Would you two like coffee”? Andrea asked as she stepped into the kitchen.“No”. Solution replied.“Absolutely not”. Cabrera replied.“Why not”? Andrea asked, stretching her head out of the kitchen.“We've not had a single moment of sleep so we really do not need caffeine right now”. Cabrera replied.“That makes sense”. Andrea said before walking back into the sitting room with a cup of coffee only for herself.Sitting down on the sofa,
