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

It is a new day. A bright new day, a day Reign had made the decision to see the Alpha of the Blazing Moon pack. Of course, the was a woman and as such would not get much support from a lot of wves but she was going to try her best after all.She was anxious and filled with tension as she did not know how well they would receive it. I quickly said a short prayer before proceeding on my way out.The journey war indeed a strenous one as she had gone with few soldiers. She could not leave the pack all by itself as she knew anyone could take advantage of the fact that she was not present and attack them.“My Luna!" One of the guards suddenly called as she continued in the journey. She immediately brought the horse to a halt as several thoughts ran through her mind.Was their pack in trouble? Was the enemy aware that she was not there and had tried to attack them?A gazillion thoughts ran though my mind as she awaited his arrival. He began to breathe heavily like something was wrong, scarin

Reign could not help but wonder what she had done to deserve so much hate from her father. Regardless, she was going to be the strong woman she had always wanted to be.***“Luna”In the Redwolf garden stood a young lady, pulling an arrow as she had her eyes on one of the trees there. Everyone stayed to watch her to see if she could really hit her target. She was determined to reach her target as she had a smile on her face. Regardless, she was going to win.“Luna…” One of the guards called. She smiled as she released the arrow from the bow. Just as she had expected, everyone began to clap for her. A smil formed on her face in satisfaction. She turned around to see who it was and why he had come for her.“You have a guest” Her Beta, Clement announced with a bow. She raised her eyes in surprise as she was not expecting any guest at that moment.“Who is he?” Clement asked with a bit of uncertainty. He was not sure who it was or what the person wanted but one thing was sure. He wanted hi
Phil jumped off his father’s back in excitement. This time, he would be able to see the full glory of the pack. Ever since he was a child, he had always wanted to see how the pack was. Although he had always gone with his father since he was a child, he had always been in a palanquin hence restricting his full view of everywhere. The palanquin wasn’t so transparent and each time it was opened, only hi mither was allowed to go out.He was only with them because they could not leave him with the maids. He was super excited.Immediately, the guards and servants and even some maids came quickly. They had to follow them wherever they went.“Good morning, my Alpha. Good morning, my Luna. Good morning, young Master” They all greeted excitedly. The Alpha and the Luna greeted them as well, accepting their greetings as Phil only smiled.“We leave now” The Alpha ordered and they all bowed in agreement. The Lina got into the palanquin while the Alpha mounted the horse. The guards also jumped on
“What can you make of a relationship between water and fire!” An old man lamented. His hair had completely turned white as it stretched to his mid back, matching his white regalia.“I do not understand, grandfather. What do you mean?” The perplexed twelve year old boy questioned as he wondered what his grandfather was saying. He questioned his grandfather who sat at a distance from him, beaming with a calm smile, his breath almost audible. The old man was coated in a white regalia that hid every part if his body, save for his palms. The wrinkles on his face took the light from his eyes and in defeat, his eyes closed and opened like the gentle clapping and flapping of a butterfly’s wing.“One consumes the other. She is your father’s nemesis. The one to end this feud against your father’s wish. The young lady you would never be able to control. Her beginning would be your father's end. To show your father love, you have to let her go. She will be his end and his destruction” The old ma
“She is awake” Beta Elvis called gently.“My angel…”Reign could hear silent sobs as she rushed in to meet her. Slowly, Reign began to open her eyes. What was going on? Had she collapsed again?“Reign, can you hear me?” The Luna questioned again as Reign was quiet. The Luna’s eyes widened in fear as she did not understand why her daughter was staring at her.Just then, the physician walked in.“What is the matter with my daughter?”“I am very sorry but Reign….” He sighed.“What is the matter with my daughter? What is wrong with her?” The Luna questioned, seeing the hint of worry on the Physician’s face.“Well, she was overstressed. Falling over had a disastrous effect on her. Her ears had been affected by the accident. For reasons unknown, her healing ability seems to be slow this time”“Are you saying she will not be able to hear again? Her ears are permanently damaged?” The Alpha questioned as he walked right in.“Not at all. I did not say that” The Royal Physician tried to explain.
Even though his wife was against it, he knew his reputation would be at stake. He had to think of a way of getting his daughter in. Of course, she was ill, she had to somehow go.Alpha Kelvin walked outside, alongside his aide, Elvis.“How is Reign? You went up to check her the other time, didn’t you?” Alpha Kelvin questioned as placed his hand behind him, a mischievous and mysterious smile etched on his face.“Yes, she is, your Highness” Elvis smiled as he followed the Alpha closely. “She is very well. She is getting better. I think you should see her” Elvis added.“I think not so” He chuckled.“I think you should, your Highness. I know what your thoughts are. I know what you think. You believe she would be upset on seeing you but she is not like that. She is not that type of woman. She is not upset with you. You are her father, after all” He reassured him.“She is better, you say?” “Yes, your highness”“Very good. Get her prepared. She will represent our clan. She would represent
