**Unknown POV**Reigns of the beast of the east.... Walking out of my room, I was so shocked to see Blair, Rona and Jade speaking with with Irene and they all stared at her with adoration laced in their eyes.No doubts Irene is beautiful in all aspects but for the fact that she's freely flowing and talking to them makes everything seem cringe and over bearing for me. I felt like going to drag Irene away from both of them but I can't probably act that foolish, besides it isn't appropriate.Woah!I almost forgot.Where the heck could Harlow be?I mean the ceremony has kicked off a long time ago and she's no where to be found... Under few minutes the ceremony would come to an end.I had to scan through the whole place with my eyes but couldn't place where exactly she was. "Are you in search of someone?" Blair's asked looking at me with a bemused look on her face. I looked around and saw Irene looking at me but she immediately looked away the moment out eyes came in contact. "Yes, wher
**Unknown pov**"Something needs to be done about your vocals, they are too loud!" Alaric shouted.Why did Rona throw up?Is she pregnant?I think there is some thing going on in this pack and I'm not aware of because what the hell is this?The thought of jade being pregnant spiked Me up to the fullest."Stand up, let's go see the packs doctor." I thundered as I held her roughly."You have no right to hold her like that!" Harlow interjected stopping my plans just now." I just want to take her to the packs doctor so we can know what's wrong with her. " I muttered coyly." I don't think that should be your problem to deal with. If you badly want her to go and see the packs doctor then Marc should do that himself! " Harlow suggested and Marc immediately looked at her." Yes because he's the husband here and what if she's pregnant? Marc needs to take her here himself. " She added." Well, I don't think he has to. " Bitchy Irene said." Shut the fuck up! " Both I, Harlow and Rona yelled
**Laura's POV**"Seriously?? Are you both like fruits or something?" Elder Magnus asked looking obviously irritated but then, that was my main aim in all of this and even if I hadn't discussed any of my plans with Maxwell, he was the best shot for this.Winking at me, that alone certified that he was going to be as annoying as possible.."I guess we are 'Or something'. " Maxwell asked placing his hands into his pockets casually as he pulled out a chair and motioned for me to sit down."Sorry can you move over for a second?" He asked Sonia who was sitting at her assigned sit.It only meant that he wanted me to sit beside him and I don't think that there would be any backing down now unless I decide not to have this breakfast.The next instant as I was still contemplating on what to do, I felt a strong grasp around my face pulling me closer to whoever it is."You're not considering skipping breakfast, are you?" He said and I stared at his hazelnut eyes."I'm not but where are you to sea
LAURA's POV:The pack's mansion walls rose high into the skies and can be viewed from across the forest and groove. The sun reflected against the small clearing that separated the pack's gate from the deep forest ahead. The Black Pearl pack stands tall against a backdrop of mountains and distant terrains; fortified at all fronts and back that has stood in the pack for hundreds of years.I knew something today was going to be different, But I didn't know what. I could feel my hair standing on attention, a tingling at the back of my neck but I didn't know what to expect.It has been a few hours after breakfast, leaving me with Maxwell.I wasn't full during breakfast but I wanted to escape the drama and tension-filled room with minds plotting to kill me in any chance they got. I only told Maxwell I was full to leave the room and also to spite the Elders and Sonia more.But a feeling of unease washed over me when I saw Niandra's eyes narrowed in on us as we left. I raised a brow at her, to te
LAURA's POV"What's wrong, Laura?" he asked, his voice low and gentle.I hesitated, unsure how I felt. I couldn't articulate my thoughts. "I…… I don't know" I wanted to tell him all my secrets for I trusted him. For he to know what I've gone through and to reduce the weight of the burden placed on my shoulder but I couldn't. I didn't want to take any risk."Hey, don't worry about Sonia. Her words are only Poisons. Don't let her words get to you" his expression was grim as he spoke."I know. I just feel like something bad is going to happen and it concerns Sonia." I said my mind. I was truly feeling that way ever since I woke up.Maxwell's expression changed, smiling. "I won't let anything happen to you, Laura. I promise."I smiled, my mind easing and I felt a surge of gratitude towards him. "I know, Maxwell. I trust you."And I did trust him. Among everyone in this pack, only he and Elder Axel I trusted. I felt they could be my ally in my journey of revenge and redemption but I had to make
TITLE: Her Obsession. Sonia's POV:"I don't like this," my voice was filled with conflict. "I don't like this at all" Xavier and Alex were close to me as we all watched as Laura walked away with Maxwell."None of us do and watching her with Maxwell only adds to my anger," Alex said and I glowered at him."Shut up, Alex. You know I don't like any of these kinds of things. I hate it when you do this." My voice was dangerous and I wanted to kill that bitch so bad. The more time went on, the more I felt like I was losing Alex to the mate bond with Laura. No matter how he tried to deny that he could never grow feelings for Laura, I couldn't help but start noticing his infatuation with her:"Do what?" Alex whined, confused."You want to pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about? I can see the way you look at her. Don't ever dare betray me or else…." I threatened. I love Alex and I would never let even Laura take him away from me.Xavier, who was standing motionless and mute suddenly sp
TITLE: Strong-willed.MAXWELL's POV:I didn't want to leave her side but what choice do I have? It wasn't like I was her mate or anything. Even if she agreed to go on a date with me, that wouldn't mean anything especially when her mate and elders were here.I only wished I was her mate and I would love her more than anything in the world. If only….."Maxwell," I looked up at the sound of my voice being called. It was Xavier, my cousin."What?" I asked, not feeling in the mood to talk to him. He was one of the people who were working with Sonia and the council of elders to destroy Laura."Come on, Cousin. Don't be like that. Can't I talk to my favorite cousin again?" Xavier spoke, lightheartedly.I narrowed my eyes on him, knowing nothing of any good would suffice from someone like him."What do you want, Xavier? I don't have time to waste with you" I retorted, feeling down and weak. All I wanted now was to go and rest. "Please excuse me""No, wait," Xavier said, his expression turning seriou
TITLE: BEAST OF THE EAST. LAURA'S POV:"I can't say it's nice to meet you beast of the east"My voice reverberated throughout the small clearing between the pack's wall and the deep forest ahead.The man smiled, his crackled but yet, the weirdly handsome face changed into an expression of amusement. "You Amaze me, Alpha Laura. You're still as Fiesty as ever." He said, his voice deep, smooth, and low. "I love that about you."I narrowed my eyes, my senses on high alert. I wasn't here to play silly jokes with him. He should get straight to the point. "What are you doing in my territory? What do you want, Beast?" I demanded. My voice is cold. "You do know you're not exactly welcome in these parts."The man or rather Beast chuckled, his piercing gaze never leaving mine. "Oh really dear? Because I think I'm exactly where I'm meant to be," he said:"You see, we've been watching." He said. "I've been watching" emphasizing his words on watching. "Your persistence and leadership strikes interest i
