Reign could not understand why had happened that very minute. What on earth was going on? Anger welled up in her as she pulled away the garment with which he covered her face with. How dare he do something like that?Reign was visibly upset but what she saw when she opened her eyes made a gasp escape her lips and sent shivers down her spine.Her whole body trembled in fear. Of course, the little girl was a beauty to behold even though she heard pity in her eyes.They liked her so much and some of the guards could not resist looking at her while some of them were more concentrated on the entrance and getting it.Unfortunately, those who had stared at the young girl had burnt together with their horses.The little girl was no where to be found. The other guards were left in shock as that could not understand what had happened that very minute. It was like time froze and everything happened even before they could realize it.Reign's whole body trembled as she saw them. She was so confuse
The word confusion and shock could not do justice to the way Reign felt that very minute.Didn't they realize she was a Lina and not just any type of maid? She could not understand.Her soldiers immediately brought out their swords to fight but she ordered them to return it back in. They were not going to fight them.While some grumbled, they managed to return their sword. Reign knew they would be overshadowed if they tried to attack. She knew they would definitely be at a loss so she was going to play it cool."Who are you and why are you here?" One of the blazing moon soldiers, the one who was obviously their boss questioned, eyeing her and sizing her from head to toe even though she was still sitting on an horse."I am Reign, Alpha of the…..""Alpha, you say?" He questioned, staring at her, confusion in his eyes. It didn't seem to make sense to him that she was the head. She wasn't surprised though. That was not the first time she had heard things like that and she knew it was not
Another year, another day, another generation, yet it did not seem to pass by. The story has always been passed from one generation to another, one child to another, father to child, grandfather to grandchildren yet the story seems to be as fresh as it had initially happened.“And that is how it all happened." A young wolf who seemed to be in his mid forties smiled at his son on his laps, with the head of his son to his shoulder.They were both in the Royal Garden of the Half Moon Park with few guards behind them even at the dead of the night. The gentle breeze blew the hair of the wolf to whatever direction it pleases as his hair was unpacked.Occasionally, the wolf brushed the hair away from his eyes when the wind blew it to his eyes."That is how Half Moon Park came into existence?” The young boy raised his head quickly to behold his Father's face.The little wolf was just fifteen years of age. He was young and handsome and looked even more handsome as his Mother had braided his ha
“Reign” I could hear my mother's voice as she called out to me. I covered my mouth, trying to suppress the laughter as I hid under the table right in front of her. She had gone to the living room and even my room but could not find me. . It was Father’s throne anniversary. It was the 13th year he became the Alpha of the Half Moon Park. I had informed my mother I did not want the red bow she had picked for me nor did I want the dress she got for me but she did not listen. “Reign, where are you?” Mother placed her hands on her waist as she turned. She looked at the plates on the table in anger and was about to call out the maids for not cleaning it. “What is the matter? Where is Reign?” I could hear Father’s voice from afar? His voice interrupted her action as he walked over to her quickly. I was gripped with fear because if there was something Father never liked, it was me troubling Mother or making Mother shout. Not wanting to face Father’s wrath, I came out from where I was hid
Father’s words bruised my heart and my soul. It pierced into my heart like a two-edged sword. Did I just hear him right? It did not seem so.I could not control the tears that fell from my eyes. It fell slowly and softly. I raised my head as I heard the clanking sound of the sword.“Father!” I called in shock as Father raised the sword like he was going to murder me with it but then, he drove the sword into the floor, right by my side. I sighed in relief although there was still a hint of fear in my heart.“At this point, be prepared to die…” He paused and combed his hair with his hand as he turned his backk to me. “If you are not ready to fight and destroy your enemies”I had so many questions. Who were my enemies? Why would I even have enemies at this tender age of mine? Why would I need to train at this tender age? Why would I even have to train at that time of the morning? It was still dawn! But I could not dare to say a word.“So, I have to start grooming you now” He turned back
The ArgumentI turned back to look at them and I saw their faces, my father’s face was filled with anger and rage. I had never seen him that angry in my entire years of existence.I didn't care about the jar anymore, I just wanted to leave there that very moment. If wishes were horses, a beggar would ride one. If it was possible, I would have definitely played back time and start the day all over again but how could I? I couldn’t even move after hearing such words from my own father.My mother was worried and scared, I looked into her eyes and she knew I had heard everything they said and talked about, the continuous argument they had had always been about me and just me. How would I continue? I cannot bear mum always being hurt like this. My father loves his wife so much but because of me, they fight every day and every time, I feel so bad for my mum."Your mother asked you to leave, didn’t she? So what are you doing here eavesdropping? Is that what you are good at now? To just show
Chapter FourThe Tell-Tale Spirit. My lunch and dinner were sent to my room, I didn’t have a reason to step my foot outside. I knew something was off. I decided to sneak out and run away, packing my things would mean I want them to know that I am running away, and that isn’t the best advice, or is it?”It would be rather obvious that I decided to disappear, writing a letter won’t be nice either. I was hoping that soon if I heard their voices that I would at least change my mind and stay with my parents but the house was quiet, it was said that there was still some bad blood in between and I would guess that the entire staff is walking on shells.It became awfully quiet, an hour to midnight, the moon shined so bright and it had a soft breeze, I closed my windows and I took some of my pillows and clothes and stuffed the bed to make it seem like I was still there, it is a trick that I had learnt in camp, although when it was to test how good the stuffing was, I didn’t do too well, I was
The Search for Reign.Reign's point of view.I was in the midst of the flowers and the grass. It was really comfortable and quiet. I looked around and it looked like a hidden garden. I spotted an orange tree and a very tall apple tree. I felt relieved, I mean spending a week here and eating fruits wouldn’t be so bad.I played and twirled in the garden, for a while I started feeling hungry, I opened my bag and I brought out my snacks to eat but it was barely enough, I knew I wanted to eat the apple, it is so red, plump but there was one problem, the tree is so huge and tall, climbing it would mean either an injured leg, a broken rib or a twisted ankle, and neither any of those options would work, and I wouldn’t want a broken body part.I sighed as I needed to think of other ways to get that apple, but how can I?” I pondered for a while. I tried climbing the tree. Maybe it was just because I was far away from the tree but then when I got to the tree it became way taller and I knew it real
