It was past midnight when I woke up, not by my choice though; but by the blood curdling screams that echoed in the castle. I had so much forgotten that my daughter was still missing and there was a search party out there, looking for her.I tried as much to keep my eyes shut since sleep didn't seem to consume me. However, whatever attempt I tried to keep still and not let curiosity control me, I found myself on the soft fluffy carpet on my bare feet.The horrendous scream was getting louder and louder. Twisting the gold knob, I set my feet on the wooden carpet. I could feel my heart palpitating at every step I took and every creak the old wood made as I walked.My ears were alerted as I followed the screams, and I found myself out the front door and into the woods I went; hoping I could bump into her accidentally. I didn't mind if there was someone who could possibly look for me. What I had in my mind was look for my child and get to where the screams were coming from.I wondered how
Joseph, who had been watching the entire altercation, reached for his heart. If it could, it'd have popped out of his chest by now. He thought of shifting to his wolf form when he saw that Ingrid was outnumbered and called for help. To his surprise, It seemed she had everything, perfectly under control."She's a fucking witch" he gritted his teeth. He was between a rock and a hard place. He didn't know what to do at that moment and the only thing resonating in his mind was tell Pharrell. But on the other hand, he didn't have the heart to because he'd kill her himself if he found out.The woman was a walking dead. She was in dangerous territory. He sighed, raking his hand in his black hair before he limped forward."Ingrid, you are…" he didn't even have the right words to say when he saw her. Her skin was busy reforming back to its glow. It had peeled off and caused her to have some scrubs. Her eyes were still hollow and bleeding. Her fangs had been extracted.She watched in pure horro
I found it difficult to fathom what was going on with my life, especially with birds barging in my room and speaking to me. I mean it was already enough that I had to be told that I am a vampire and a witch. My life was totally ruined and there was no going back to fix it.I laid down on the bed, drifting into my thoughts until I heard someone groaning beside me. I looked at Paula and she was awake.“Hey, sweetie. Are you okay?” her grey eyes misted with tears. My heart couldn’t help but feel clogged at the sight of my little being hurt. I engulfed her in my arms, as if she’d escape anytime I blink.“Mama, I’m scared.” She whimpered as small sobs left her lips. I rubbed her back. Soothing her.“You don’t have to be my love. Mama is here and she’ll protect you” her breathing had calmed down, hence I lay her on the bed. A light tap resonated from the door. I waited to see who it was.Thankfully it was Charmaine and aunt Marah.“How is the little princess?” Marah asked. I sigh heavily be
As much as Paula said she knew who kidnapped her, she couldn’t give me a clear description of the person, but she was very sure that if he were to come near her, she’d be able to point him out. I sighed with defeat.“Okay sweetie, now that you are done, let’s go and find aunt Charmaine to bother” I said with a smile and she gave me a thumbs up. The day was actually going great. I was glad I could take some of the bad thoughts from Paula by keeping her busy. The three of us were walking around the pack houses. We took a road that was paved in yellow sandstones. As we were walking, most people we met kept gawking at us, rather me. I nudged Charmaine to check if I had anything on my face. When she shook her head, I grew worried.“Charmaine, do you think we should go back?” I asked. She seemed to have the same thought as me, so she nodded. We were about to return to the castle when we felt a gush of wish pass by us so fast and unnoticeable. Our eyes opened in surprise when we saw two wome
Pharrell entered his office, Joseph following suit. He scrunched his nose in annoyance at his cousin who couldn’t resist tailing him.“Don’t you have anything better to do?” he asked, as he sat down on his chair. He looked slightly tired.“Do you think this banquet is really necessary to be attended? I mean there are so many…” Joseph didn’t get to finish his sentence when a light tap on the door echoed. The Alpha and Joseph both looked up to see who it was.“Frank, is there something wrong?” Alpha Pharrell asked, looking at his beta who came in, with a frown on his face. Joseph also looked at him waiting to hear him answer. Frank inhaled sharply before he said something.“This is for you. One of the patrolling wolves came and gave it to me and said it was addressed to you” Frank bowed. He was about to leave when Alpha Pharrell stopped him dead in his tracks.“Did he tell you anything else?” he asked, prying the caramel envelope with a paper weight on his desk.“No. Just that it is me
It was early in the morning. The sun rose glittering its light on the magnificent Castle. The birds were chirping, dancing to the melodious songs of their created lyrics. The castle was bustling with people. Going frantically and passing one another as they prepared for the big ceremony: 'The Alpha's Wedding.'It was time that the prince would marry and be crowned as the King.What a wonderful day!Many maidens envied her to be Luna. To marry in the Houston castle meant living your whole life twisting and turning in richness and being a luna had its advantages. Especially when an alpha was a handsome hunk. "Have you seen the bride yet?" one maid said, folding the sheets on the table."No, have you?" Another answered."No, but, I heard she is beautiful and kind," the other said. They have been busy making sure it was sparkling clean. This wedding has caused so many people to empty their pockets. Everyone wanted to be noticed. To be perfect in everything, even the gossip mongers of m
The first wedding that happened was of Alpha Joseph. He wore a black tuxedo, his shoes shining. He possessed a calm aura. His bride, Charmain Sandows, was looking so beautiful and innocent.After the wedding rituals were done, Joseph and Charmain settled in their seats.After a while drums echoed and another bride came in. As the bride came closer, she was beginning to think that Joseph was her groom. But, that wasn't it when she saw Joseph with his bride."May the groom come closer please" the high priest said, preparing the scriptures of the wedding vows. When the groom came closer, the bride was stunned. She thought it was a prank."Is this my mate!" Bewildered, she asked, looking around."Yes, I am your mate. Any problem?" Pharrell asked, raising his eyebrows and looking up at her."No that's not possible…it can't be" she backed away from him."My dear, come forward so we'll have to continue the ceremony" the priest said, seeing the young lady back away."No, I can't be mated to
"Queen mother please calm down! It's not good for your health…look you BP is rising" Marah said as fought the queen mother down. After what happened Yesterday she was acting hyper. She was pale and her blood pressure was rising."I told you that nobody will accept him" the queen was restless knowing that her grandson won't be married to anyone due to his condition. Everyone shunned him for being crippled. Not even unmarried girls wanted him.What will happen to the Kingdom and the pack now?Her other grandson was nothing but a loose rag…a greedy person with no goals and can ruin the Kingdom."You don't have to worry, Alpha Pharrell will find his mate. Now please calm down. I can't allow the Alpha to have my head" she was trying to calm her down but to no avail."Let me tell you a secret…Alpha Pharrell can…" she couldn't finish her words when the door was opened harshly."Marah…do you still want to live another day in the castle?" She shook at the sight of the crippled Alpha. This gu
