THIRD PERSON'S POV

Alpha Eric sits on his swivel chair and looks outside. There is rain, heavy rain. He adjusts the volume of his music system and the sound drowns the noise from the rain. He doesn't love rain and he wishes it goes away soon. He takes a glass from a sideboard and pours in some strong drink which he takes in one swig. As it goes down his throat he closes his eyes to savour it's taste. Then he takes out an expensive cigar from his equally expensive humidor, clips the tip with a pair of scissors and lights it. He lets the smoke into his lungs and holds his breath.

When he exhales the blue smoke, he places his legs on the table and sits back. It's only then that he presses a button on the table and a bell rings at the reception. He is now ready to receive his visitors. They have been waiting for about two hours, not because he was busy, but because he wants them to know that he is not easily available.

Bernice and Tiffany walk in slowly as the blue smoke from the cigar dr

  • SCARFACE LUNA    TELL ME EVERYTHING

    ALICIAToday I am feeling great. I am as fit as a fiddle, getting stronger and stronger. I can't believe that I was feeling so sick and in so much pain just a few days ago. Whatever magic Drake applied on me did a lot of good and I am forever grateful.I now have an office in the pack house complete with an assistant. Her name is Joyce and she is always at my beck and call. Right now she is writing for me the speech that I am going to deliver at the party tonight, an acceptance speech. All I need is to do is to memorize it so that I won't appear to be reading from a piece of paper. I know that speaking in public is not for everyone but I will give it a try.Drake is out for some Alpha duties, something to do with border security. He walked out abruptly after receiving a call from his border guards. Before leaving the two of us were in the office and he was giving me some tips on public speaking.“The people will all keep quiet and fix their eyes on you. Just don't panic. Be yourself.

  • SCARFACE LUNA    PARTY

    ALICIA“Well, well, well. Look what we have here.” The familiar voice booms behind me as his scent wafts along. I can distinguish Eric's voice from far and the fact that he is already here in my private space brings butterflies to my stomach.In our conversation with Drake in the morning we discussed Eric, and it was obvious that Drake didn't want to see him at the party. Now that he is already here, not in the hall but in my changing room, the situation is complicated. Something told me that Drake suspects Eric of something, I wonder what will happen if he ever finds out that I was his mate and he rejected me. What if he finds him here?I wish I told him the truth.“Alicia, what's wrong? Are you pretending that you don't know me?” Eric asks as he gets closer.“Get away from me Eric. This is a restricted area and no one is supposed to come here without the express permission of Alpha Drake.” I shout at him as I retreat into the changing room. My aide Joyce hears me shouting and comes

    ALICIA“Jim, I am not surprised. I know he is here already and it's okay. But there is something I would like to know later after this party.” Drake says as he fixes a hard glance on me. I lower my eyes from his powerful stare.“A few minutes ago that wretched man was spotted here in the changing rooms and I would like to know who is that in this pack who allowed him in and what is it that he wanted.” My heart beats extra hard but I try to remain composed. Jim is silent, waiting for the Alpha to speak.“Well, I am going in now. You are in charge of the program and I trust that you will do a great job.” Drake says to Jim. Then he comes closer, places a peck on my cheek and tells me, “Remember to be strong and courageous. See you in a few.”I watch as he takes the few steps to the door, then he opens it and takes a quick glance at us before stepping into the hall. Before the door closes behind him, I can hear loud applauses from those inside. After the door closes there is silence.I am

  • SCARFACE LUNA    I SHOULD HAVE TOLD HIM

    ALICIA “As for you, I have no words. But you should look yourself in the mirror.” I remember Josephine's words as if they were spoken yesterday. This is because in the middle of the gathering, just as I stood up to talk, I saw her seated, looking at us. Her blonde hair is so distinguishable, and so is her face. I am sure that it's her.Drake knows that something is wrong immediately because I am hesitant to taking the microphone. The reason for this is that I know this girl and I know what she is capable of doing, or worse still, saying. Slowly, Drake looks into the crowd and he sees her, then his face changes. Anger is displayed in him and I get it that he is furious at those who let her in. But he takes control of himself and gets closer to me, then he whispers into my ear.“It is fine don't worry. Go ahead with your speech. I'm going to take care of this personally.” He says. He takes my hand and walks me the short distance to the microphone, then he adjusts the stand by lowering

    ALICIA Silence reigns for a fleeting moment as I contemplate on what to say. The moment I was dreading has indeed come and I am now regretting yet again why I didn't tell Drake about Eric the moment we met.“I...um, I was going to tell you about it Alpha..” I start explaining myself as the two men look at me. Eric with victory, albeit temporary, written all over his face and Drake with confusion. I know I am in a deep hole.“Then what happened?” Drake asks me.“Tell him. Tell him now while I am here Alicia. I won't contradict you.” Eric jumps in with his hands flying in the air to emphasize his point. A few meters away I can see that the scene is attracting attention from other guests and some pack members.“He rejected me the moment I found out that he was my mate. I rejected him back and that's why I ran out of his pack. That's why I came here Drake.” I say, looking at Eric in the eye. I am seething with rage, I am feeling tonnes of hatred for him. As far as I am concerned, we were

  • SCARFACE LUNA    MATED

    ALICIA I thought the meeting between my parents and I would be difficult but it turned out just fine. Except for a few moments when my mother became emotional and cried for a while, prompting me to cry too, there wasn't much fuss. “My daughter, we all knew you were alive. We are werewolves remember, so it's very easy to detect when one of us dies. What we didn't know is whether we will ever see you again.” She says. “Mom, I had to leave abruptly. Actually, I was thinking about telling Drake to accompany me on a tour back home. Then this happened and here we are.” I say. We are in the dining room at the pack house, my parents, Drake and I. Earlier, we made a tour around the hall talking to the guests then came back here for this meeting. “I knew that you were in danger, my instincts told me. Now that you have explained about the scar I am satisfied that what I was feeling was right. However, we are now very happy to see you in good health.” Mum can't keep quiet and we let her s

  • SCARFACE LUNA    DEPARTURE

    “I must go. Many of the trainees must leave with me too. The battle has already started.” Drake tells me. He is already up and in the sitting room. He has bathed, dressed up and shaved his beard. I can only admire his energy. It has been a very eventful night and I had a very hard time waking up. I felt like sleeping on and on to recover the sleep I missed. But here is Drake looking ever energetic. Maybe with time I will have the same energy.“It is still too early though, maybe you should go back and have some more sleep. You look very sleepy.” He says. I wonder whether he has read my mind. Not difficult though because since some time last night, we can mind link with him easily. This remarkable fit came with the marking. “No.” I say as I fall into his outstretched arms. “I must see you off. I must also pack some clothes and other essentials for your trip. I must stay awake now that I am up. There's a lot of work for me in my office and I know that delegations will start coming in a

  • SCARFACE LUNA    STRENGTH GALORE

    ALICIA.It's after he has left that I realize how much I love Drake. His absence makes me miss him so much and that makes me hate the war. Why has it happened just when we are warming up to each other? Why so sudden? I feel a lot of emptiness when he is not here and the house is never the same. His father and step mother have gone back to their home, leaving me with only the servants in this vast house. The pack is also no longer the same without him too. There's a void that needs to be filled. I need my Drake back because I am going crazy without him. The nights in particular get so long and I think about every other minute. I have the feeling that he misses me as much too.To keep myself busy I have gone back to school but only for a few days because after Drake left the war situation escalated and all the elite trainees were summoned to join the war. The school is deserted because of this. It seems that the war is not as simple and rosy as someone had described to me earlier.Also

    ALICIA It's a deep and wide void and it's as if I am floating in it. The expanse of the void is so large, big, infinite. I can't fathom where it starts or where it ends. I am all alone and everywhere I look I see nothing but an endless blue colour. I have been here before. I wonder why I have come back.I try walking around but I don't know which direction to take. East or west? North or south? And where exactly will I be going to? I ask myself endless questions.“Alicia.” A soft yet powerful voice calls from behind me and I turn to look. What I see mesmerizes me. A blinding white light comes from the distance. As it approaches it becomes even more brighter. It's not hot like the sun's rays but it's clearer than it's light. I can't face it with my eyes so I opt to turn away.“You are here once again.” The voice says.“Yes I am. Thanks for the invitation.” I say.“This will be a very brief meeting Alicia. I know you have been through a lot. So much has happened in a few days and I am

  • SCARFACE LUNA    CONFESSION TIME

    ALICIA In the morning I summon Tiffany to my office. It's really sad that she has to come up from the dungeons but I have already asked Drake to release her. I am sure he will listen to me since she isn't a threat to my life any more. Also, she proved her worthiness when she led us to the cabin in the woods and releasing her will be a good way of saying thanks.She comes in dressed in a different dress from the one she was wearing yesterday. She is also smelling nice, evidence that she has bathed and changed. I love how she looks. When I remember the filthy girl she was after Andrew's interrogation, I see big change.“Hey there. You are looking great.” I say as she walks into my office. She takes a seat facing me and I invite her to take some of my coffee.“How is your stay down there?” I ask.“Very nice Luna Alicia.” I can tell that she genuinely admires me now. So interesting how one can change from hating to loving in such a small period.“They have given me a bed and new mattress

  • SCARFACE LUNA    TIFFANY SEES THE LIGHT

    ALICIA For a moment I don't understand what they are talking about and I stand before them in a daze.“Take a seat Alicia. The Alpha will tell you everything.” Andrew says as he takes a sip from his glass. Looking at Drake he smiles and gestures that I take the seat. I place the recorder on the table and sit still, waiting for Drake to speak.“Alicia, Andrew told me about your request to talk to Tiffany and I said why not? So we decided to make a scene, make Tiffany think that you were her only saviour. That way she was going to trust you and open up because Andrew's tactics were bearing no fruit. I was so happy when I saw her hiding behind you, running away from the interrogation machine that is your brother Andrew.” Drake finally says and my mouth flies open.“Do you realize how serious this is? You seated here, drinking fine whiskey while I am down there risking my life?” I ask them.“We had no alternative. You were already talking to her. We wanted the disagreement between you an

  • SCARFACE LUNA    CONFESSIONS

    ALICIA.I decide to go to the dungeon to see what Andrew is doing and find out what Tiffany has said. I would have waited for the report but I am dying of curiosity. I know it's dangerous going there alone but the prisoner is not a threat to me. Andrew must have neutralized her. I find him shouting at her and when he sees me coming he steps aside for a while. I walk into the dimly lit cell and after my eyes get accustomed to the darkness I decide to talk to her.“Listen Tiffany. It's Luna Alicia here. Listen, It's over now. Bernice, your partner in crime is dead. Your comrades, Boniface and others are dead too. Everyone who plotted against me is dead.” I tell Tiffany. We are at the dungeon where John was locked up a few days earlier. Interestingly, she has refused to talk even a single word to Andrew despite being tortured thoroughly.“In this cell, we had locked up a very dangerous assassin, John, who had been sent by Alpha Lazarus to kill me. He failed. He is now dead. All those wh

    ALICIA “I don't think it's a good idea Alicia. It may be dangerous for you and I don't want you to risk your life as well as your unborn pups. Just stay back here." Drake says. We are now in the radio room together with Andrew. I knew all along that he didn't want me to accompany him on this mission but I am not giving up. I must face Bernice on a one on one basis. She didn't come to the battlefield, therefore I didn't get the chance back then. But now she isn't going to escape from me. I will not allow Drake to deny me this golden opportunity. I choose to remain silent for a while, as I look for words to answer him.On a huge screen before Andrew there is a green dot that keeps on moving and Andrew has already informed us that the dot represents Gamma Boniface's phone as he walks into the deep woods. Our speculation is that he is going to meet with our enemies, Bernice included, for plans against us.Boniface is a big man, elderly, almost the same age with Alpha Drake's father. He d

  • SCARFACE LUNA    WE TRAIL HIM

    ALICIA “Perhaps we got too busy that I forgot to tell you something very important.” I say to Drake in the evening as we watch TV. His head is rested on my lap and I am stroking his hair. There are few gray strands and some times I make jokes about them, telling him that he is now an old man.“What could that be?” He asks, getting up and sitting properly. Huge biceps and triceps show through his tight fitting top. He looks at me seriously and I understand why. We have been through a lot, from a war straight into security threats and now internal sabotage. I know he thinks that what I am going to tell him is something bad.“Very good news. Relax.” I can see him relaxing. He even goes back to his former position.“Drake, I think I am expecting.” I say. He doesn't move an inch. Instead, he changes channels on the TV.“I know.” He says casually.“What?” I ask him, surprised.“As a man, and an Alpha for that matter, there are some things that can not escape my attention. I noticed the cha

  • SCARFACE LUNA    TRAITOR WITHIN

    ALICIA We are seated in Drake's office to discuss the recent turn of events as well as to get some briefing from Josh who has been spying on Lazarus and his pack. Drake is on the high seat moderating debate.“Tell us Jim, what did you observe?” Drake asks.Jim rises with some files in his hands and greets us. Thereafter he goes to the specifics.“Alpha Lazarus is a very sly person. He pretended to be friends with us, spoke good things about us, oozed sweetness when we were around, but in real sense he is a very bad person.” Jim says. Everyone listens carefully.“You will not believe what I found out. One, he freed Bernice from the prison we had put her in. I hear she told him many of our secrets although I highly doubt that she knows much. Also, Alpha Eric is completely healed, and Lazarus has met him in the forest. No one knows what they discussed.” I don't know what to react to information that Eric is still alive. I had given up on my revenge the moment I saw him going down in bat

    ALICIA “Please don’t do that. Don’t touch it. I’ll do everything that you want me to do.” I plead with John whose hand is already stretched, reaching for the switch. He pauses for a while, then starts turning to face me. That moment is full of silence as I pray that he doesn’t do anything to hurt me. Outside the banging has stopped and I start cursing them for giving up on me. I wish Drake was here, he would have acted by now, he is not one to make decisions slowly.He comes back to me, grinning with his big teeth partially covered by his upper lip.“Anything? Anything? You said you will do anything and in return I am to stop killing you?” He asks.My heart is pounding heavily, and I am trying very hard not to cry. He comes even closer, “tell me this and I will disappear without harming you,” he looks me straight in the eye. His big eyes are intimidating and I can’t hold the gaze. I stare at the floor.“If you swear to me that you will leave Alpha Drake, forfeit your position, I will

    ALICIA “Alpha Lazarus has reached out to me to kill you because of two reasons.” He says. Saliva from his mouth splashes onto my face but I can't wipe it away because he has me pinned to the wall. I remain silent.“Your mate Drake did something unforgivable, and since there exists some peace treaty between their two packs, he can't be touched. You are the one to pay for what he did.” He adds.“What did my mate do? I thought we were out there helping Lazarus?” I ask just for the sake of prolonging the conversation. Drake has already told me everything I needed to know.“Don't pretend that you don't know Alicia, it insults my intelligence. But I'll remind you all the same. Drake aided or abetted in the killing of two very senior pack members. Your own brother did the killing, of course with the blessings of Drake. Earlier , Lazarus had passed a death sentence on your brother Andrew. He didn't manage to kill him, but he has you now. You die today.” I don't hear anything else he says bec
