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.

    ANDREW'S POV War has started, full scale war. Alpha Eric send me to train the rogues, but the situation changed and now I am in the deep woods fighting with them, at their side. The Rogues, in their haste, started a war they hadn't planned properly. They didn't have the numbers nor the weapons. They weren't even sufficiently trained to handle simple weapons like spears and swords. I wonder what they were rushing for because I don't yet see anything that couldn't wait until every plan was executed. I tried to tell them to delay the attack at least to give us time for preparation but their leader Brice is one who doesn't take advice from anyone. Also, they had grossly underestimated the power of the opponent. Though the opponent didn't have many fighters and warriors, they had a very powerful ally, Alpha Drake. Drake has a very big army of meticulously trained fighters and they are now participating in the war. No one had foreseen this. Our troops are outnumbered by a ratio of one

  • SCARFACE LUNA    I HAVE TO GO

    ALICIA The long awaited day is here, the day when the selection of the next batch of warriors to go to the battleground is going to take place. Whether I am selected or not I have to go because I feel that Drake needs me by his side. I miss him so much such that I can't function normally. Just yesterday I dreamt that he was in danger and I didn't sleep again after that. Actually I think everything is not right and if anything were to happen to him then I would be devastated. I will go to him, if he dies we die together.All along I have been thinking of him as invincible, a killing machine who will go from victory to victory, but my dream opened my eyes to the possibility that he could easily land into danger, he was indeed flesh and blood like any other man.We are gathered in the pack's training grounds, waiting for the recruiters to come and every passing moment I'm getting uneasy, there's this feeling that is pestering me and I pray that it goes away soon. There is no training to

    ALICIA.“You need to be very alert every time. You are going to the real battlefield, not some rehearsal or some training ground, you are going to kill or be killed my daughters. I pray that everything goes well and I will be happy to see you back alive. Of course I don't want you to go but since you are insisting, I have no choice but to bid you goodbye." The emotional words of Benjamin echo in my ears as Melissa and I delve into the jungle. We have been walking for hours and I'm beginning to get tired. The sun is so hot but we have no choice, except to trudge on.Benjamin had offered to drive us using Drake' car but we declined, choosing instead to walk the long distance to the forest where the war is being fought. We would have easily shifted and ran, and eventually got there fast, but we are carrying heavy bags with our clothes and other supplies like food, bathing soap and lotions. Benjamin jokingly told us that we look like hikers.We also declined an offer from Beta Jim to giv

    ALICIA I focus my attention on my brother. He is struggling with himself, with his wolf. I know right away what is troubling him, Melissa is his mate but he can not bring himself to say the word, hence he stands there saying nothing. I smile, seeing him fighting the battle inside him, a losing battle. Melissa, his prisoner, and his mate. I know that his wolf will eventually win because that's what happens.Melissa too is scared. She is shocked at first to hear Andrew call me by name, evidence that he knows me, then coupled with the initial fear of being a prisoner in an unknown land. But I can see her struggling with what is going on inside her head, she has finally found her mate though in the most unexpected circumstances. She has been looking for a mate for a while now, and sometimes she would confide in me that she would like him to be a strong and muscular man who is caring and loving. Well, I didn't know that she was describing my own brother. He has all the qualities she wante

  • SCARFACE LUNA    IT'S GETTING TRICKY

    ANDREW'S POV This is definitely going to be the longest night of all. I am in a deep hole already and I don't know what to do to stop me from getting deeper and deeper.The problems started when I walked away from a subdued Alpha Drake. Everyone expected me to strike him dead. Alpha Eric came to know about it and came to our camp at night. I only knew of his presence when I heard the generator outside go off and as a result we were plunged into darkness. I presumed it was the enemy's work because the generator wasn't faulty and it had enough fuel.With that conclusion, I jumped out of my sleeping bag and armed myself with a machete that never leaves my bedside. I had slept with my clothes on.I listened carefully, trying to gather any noise and found it odd that no one in the whole camp seemed bothered. They were all silent. Very unprofessional of the whole lot, but that is expected from amateurs.Satisfied that there was nobody outside, I stealthily walked out and dashed into the tr

  • SCARFACE LUNA    WHO'S ALICIA?

    ALICIA We run and run, in the moonlight past the gates into the deep woods. I am leading while Melissa follows closely behind. She keeps on complaining that the boots she is wearing are so big for her but so are mine. Even after fastening them my feet keep on playing inside but I take comfort in the fact that even though they are torn, they are better than running on bare feet.“You better keep up with me Melissa, they will surely come after us, especially when they find out what we have done.” I tell Melissa who has stopped running and she now pants heavily.“My chest burns Alicia. Let's rest for a while.” She manages to say through heavy breathing.Just then the alarms go off, blaring noisily over the woods and echoing in the nearby rocks. They have found out about us and I just hope that Andrew isn't in trouble. I wonder what would have happened had he not come in time to our rescue. The guard he killed was about to inflict serious damage on us.Earlier at the cell we had plotted

  • SCARFACE LUNA    REUNION

    ALICIA I run through the open grasslands, aiming at the direction Andrew told us and as the sun rises I have covered more than three kilometers. I have gone through knee high grass which still has it's morning dew and my wet clothes are now soggy with water. The oversized boots make noise every step I make and I decide to do something about it. I can't get far in such conditions. There is no noise from behind and I can tell that my pursuers have called off the chase. I can now relax.I find a river and take out all of my clothes and wash them, then hung them to dry in the sun. I remain with only my undergarments and I plunge into the cold river water to take a bath.The water does wonders, cooling down all my body and mind. I had been haunted by the act of leaving behind Melissa in rogue territory but now the guilt melts away and in its place it's replaced by an assurance in my mind that nothing bad can happen to her with her mate near her. Some things happen for a reason, I muse. Fo

  • SCARFACE LUNA    CLOSE SHAVE

    ANDREW'S POV I know that my time with Alpha Eric is coming to an end, a bitter end. All the trust his pointman Brice had in me, if any, is gone and in its place a hatred that is so thinly veiled has set in. We have dispatched our men to go to war without us because we have to wait for Alpha Eric who has communicated through the radio that he's coming. He has indicated strictly that he wants to see me. The radio call was made in my absence by Brice, contrary to our procedures and that alone sends an alarm. This is the very first time a call has been made to Eric without me in the radio room. Brice went silent on me immediately after we came back from the river. Melissa made a very big mistake when she called Alicia by name, forgetting the pseudo, urging her to run away. Brice for some reason thought that I knew who this Alicia was and he demanded that I tell him, but I insisted that I didn't know her. This Brice, he has a very big sixth sense. “I don't believe anything you are sa

  • SCARFACE LUNA    INTERESTING NEXT PHASE

    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

  • SCARFACE LUNA    DEATH OF A TRAITOR

    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
