SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 84: LOSING MY MIND
Vincent's POVEver since my Ruby left me in the night, I admit that I've been loosing my damned mind. Some of my spies said Ruby had been wandering the lands assassinating ranked wolves. No one has seen her since her appearance at the coronation. I don't know what happened exactly, but I felt extreme pain that night. I feared the inevitable."Where do you think they locked Ruby up at?" one of my warriors asked. "There's only one way to find out," I hinted. "Of course, my king. We will extract her after tonight's mission," he bowed before walking away.Over a year has passed since our pup was taken, but last week I made a discovery. I wish Ruby was here when I rip Elena and her mate's throat out."Why did you have to hurt Alpha Santak's daughter, Lily?" one of the Dukes questioned me. "As far he knows, his bastard daughter, Jamela harmed her," I chuckled. "Huh?" he asked confused. "There's a messenger on his way as we speak to deliver a message. Jamela tried to murder her own sister in

Antionette's POV"Wakey wakey!" I heard Gamma Felius shout. "Get away from me, vermin!" I hissed. "Aww, is that anyway to speak to your Gamma?" He asked squatting down in front of me. "You are no Gamma of mine! Where is my son?" I barked. "Let's take you to him," he said dragging me to my feet. "Really?" I asked shocked.He ignored my question. After Lincoln pushed me to my death, my wolf quickly began to heal me. He broke nearly every bone in body. I'm still in pain, but I won't show them any weakness."There she is! Just who I wanted to see," I heard some random she-wolf I overheard them call Katie say. "You are below my station. You shouldn't even be here standing next to my mate!" I growled. "The Alpha King isn't your mate! You are his prey as you will soon be mine. I cannot wait to hunt you down and make you suffer!" Katie spat.Lincoln said nothing. He didn't even look at me. I admit I was a little relieved as I smelled like rat droppings and piss. My hair was tangled from month

Alpha King Lincoln's POV"HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?" I angrily shouted looking down at a treaty proposal from my brother, Vincent. "I cannot believe he's threatening to attack if you don't agree to give over your lands. There would no longer be a Kingdom of Klaus," Gamma Felius pointed out. "Your round table will reveal our numbers. We have strong allies, but weeding the enemies within is draining our resources. I'm convinced there is a rat amongst us," McKenna interjected.She had already ruled out Alpha Talbot, three Earls, and one Duke. The Tirado brothers were selfish, but Tavi said Lex hadn't sided with Vincent because of his own ego. It was a good thing because Tirado had similar numbers as Klaus."Does Alpha Talbot really believe that Jamela killed Lily?" I asked Felius. "He has her picture on every tree in every kingdom. That old bastard isn't seeing reason. It's not true!" McKenna interjected. "Once Talbot's dead, it won't matter," I said looking down at the sandbox laid out in fro

McKenna's POVI knew today was a big day for Tavi, but my mind was elsewhere. Jubilee only spoke to me about our son, Jonah and how we were going to win the brewing war. The passion he reflected when talking about all these things used to be how he would glow talking about US. Not anymore from where I sit. Deciding that I couldn't take the tension after the long ride to Tirado, I leaped out of the carriage and decided to go for a walk. Jubilee declined my invitation as quickly as I had extended it. My heart broke time and time again. I sighed hanging my head low until I found a spot where I felt I could be alone. "Are you okay?" Lincoln asked walking toward me. "What are you doing so far out here?" I asked. "It's one of my favorite places about this kingdom. It looks out over the entire territory. I told Tavi about it before she left Klaus,” he explained. “It is rather lovely," I sighed. "Yes, it really is," he replied looking at me. "You mustn't stare at me that way, my lord. Others

Octavia's POVAfter Lily's passing, Jamela has not been seen. I think she somehow feels it's her fault, but it's not. I couldn't fathom why she would feel that way. A part of me knew she had most likely returned to Foxchase to hide out with Elena. She did owe us her life."I'll get the door," Oliver said walking away. "I didn't hear anything," I said scrunching up my face.Oliver wasn't okay, but he put on a tough front and tried to understand. His wolf was in pain undoubtedly separated from the wolf he adored. There was just too much damage done. Now that Adelina claims to carry his pup, his situation has just gotten more complicated.After learning what Lex had done to Violet, I almost threw my plan out, kill him, and go rogue. However, I've waited much too long to do this right."You're just distracted," he said opening the door.I was shaken from my moment of grief by my annoying future mother-in-law March in uninvited."Come! The dresses are here!" Lex's mother, Angelica cooed. "

Essex POV After Octavia declared her challenge I nearly had a heart attack. This wasn't happening. "Babe, calm down. The mutt is digging her own grave," Rose said pulling on my arm. "She's not a mutt. She is my mate!" I growled pulling away from her. "Why must you do this to me? I've loved you for four years. Octavia has said it herself. She does not believe in love, only duty. I believe in both," she whimpered. "Is that why you called me by Aiken's name all afternoon?" I asked. "I-I," she stuttered, but I didn't care. I thought I loved the she-wolf standing before me, but I know now that it was only infatuation. I have not successfully ended our relationship up until this point. I couldn’t marry her."I will not allow her to go through with this!" I said storming the stage just as the double doors to the Great Hall slammed open. Imagine our surprise when Vincent strolled inside as if he owned the place. Gasps filled the air along with a ferocious growl from Alpha King Lincoln who

Alpha Lex's POV"I will be glad when you rid us of that bastard! How dare she embarrass you like that. I should fight in your place," Taysia said stuffing her face with a strawberry tart. "She would annihilate you," I said plainly. "WHAT?" Taysia asked offended. "Never underestimate your opponent," I explained. "I know that, but you think she could best me," she pouted. "And here's why," I said throwing the tart from her hands against the wall. "B-But, I'm with child!" She shouted. "No, you're not! Stop lying to everyone about it, will ya?" I said irritated.I waited for a rebuttal, but by now she knew better. She set quiet in the corner while I waited for Vincent and his Duke that tagged along to accompany me in my study. The Duke just showed up after handling a personal matter back at his home."LEX!" Alpha King Vincent of the West said barging into my study. "Knocking would have been preferred, your grace," I said refusing to bow. "Mate!" I heard Taysia say standing to her feet. "Ma

Rose's POV "Have you seen your sister, Taysia?" Duke Sayid desperately asked. "We had a great time getting to know each other a couple days ago, but then she asked for some time to think. I've barely seen her since!" He huffed. "I will keep an eye out. I have not spoken to her. I've just returned from Cassius. I will locate her," I replied knowing she would probably be somewhere Alpha Lex dwelled. She knows how big of a mistake I made rejecting Aiken. Why on earth would she make the same stupid decision? I was prepared to give her a piece of my mind until Aiken came into view. "Moon Goddess, you have quite the sense of humor," I murmured to myself. I tried to avoid him and the fact that he was holding hands with Matilda. She used to be Octavia's handmaiden. That made the blow so much worse. Matilda gave Aiken a kiss, giggled, and ran into the castle. "It's good to see you," I said stepping into his sight. "R-Rose?" He stammered. "The one and only," I blushed. "What are you doing

SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 100: I WANTED IT TO END
Octavia's POVThe hours ticked by but mentally I was absent from the present. I missed Jubilee. He was my father, a best friend, and a teacher. If he were here he would tell me to get my shut together. But he’s not….I sighed before heading to check on Violet. "Are you going to be okay?" I asked Violet. "I cannot believe Killian hurt you in plain sight. What do you think triggered his anger this time?" I asked exasperated. "I know Killian attacked me because he was pissed to see me with Oscar again, but I think it had to happen. I no longer have to carry Lex's pup. I know I shouldn't be happy for such things, but I was going to end my life once the pup was born," she confessed. "What?!" I asked in shock. "Yeah. I was going to walk off of the cliff or drink too much and drown myself. There were endless possibilities and I thought of them all," she shrugged. "Well, I'm glad you're okay," I said rubbing her forehead. “Me too, thanks to my little sister, Vidalia," she smiled. "Yeah, I'm
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 99: IT'S A SETUP
Alpha King Vincent's POV "It's been a long time," I heard a familiar voice say. It was the voice of someone I would kill before the night was over. "Elena! You bitch! How dare you show your face around here! Where's my pup?” I growled catching her by the throat. "D-Death is imminent. You reek of it," she croaked. "Is that a threat?" I asked nearly crushing her wind pipe just as I heard the ripping of flesh behind me. I tossed Elena to the ground. I placed my foot on her neck so that her face stayed buried in the dirt. "NO! There’s no fucking way!" I shouted over the thunderous cries of Lex's mother and a disappointed growl from his father. How is this possible? There's no way her wolf should have been able to defeat Lex's. Black magic! That's the only reason this would happen. That's it. She’s a WITCH! "Somebody has killed our warriors in the dining hall!" I heard Lawrence growl just as I heard screams erupt in front of me from Violet who looked to have been injured. "KILL THEM
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 98: ON MY HONOR
Octavia's POV"When does your father return?" I asked Essex. "I heard word was sent a few days ago where I'm sure he's been held up with one of his whores," he replied rolling his eyes. "And your mother is just okay with that?" I asked annoyed. "I think she tries not to think about it. Regardless of what you may think of my mother, she has always done her best to raise us alone while my father fought in wars, chased whores, and beat her. She's not perfect, but I will protect her until my last breath," he sighed. "As I expect you to. How did you turn out to be...YOU? Lex is a manipulative little cunt, but you seem more honest. Why did you give up your claim to the Kingdom of Tirado?" I asked. "My father convinced me to do so. The Kingdom of Cassius would be a good move for the kingdom of Tirado. If only I had known Rose’s father never intended for me to take over. Apparently, I wasn't good enough to follow him or my father. I trained harder, ran faster, and became smarter than them bot
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 97: YOU'RE GOING
Taysia's POV "You're going and that's final!" My father shouted at me. "Father, I cannot go back to Tirado. Alpha Lex hurt me!" I cried. "You set yourself up for what we he did! Are you upset that he chose the bastard over you?" My father growled. "NO! I swear it doesn't matter! Duke Sayid is my mate!" I protested. "Then what is the matter with you?" He snapped. "Father, do not make her go back. He is a maniac! Tell him what he really did to you!" Rose interjected. "Well?" My father asked and I shook my head in shame. My father stormed out enraged, but not before mandating that both me and Rose be there for the challenge. "You should have told father that Alpha Lex shoved the same disgusting pole he beats his horses with in your lady River! What are you afraid of? Shame? Embarrassment? He should be the one feeling those things! Not you!" Rose said furiously. "I know! Okay! I cannot face him. My mate is off on a mission so I cannot confide in him. In his letter, he says what he wen
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 96: WHY CAN’T YOU UNDERSTAND?
Adelina' POV"When are you going to tell him?" Romeo asked. "Not now, Romeo! You're stressing me out!" I shouted. "Talk to me! Is this about your parents?" he asked. "Can you both stop yelling? I'm trying to focus on my painting," Romeo's sister, Vidalia interrupted.Vidalia and I had been friends since we were pups. Lately, she's been a shell of herself. All she does is paint, train, and pottery ever since she split off from her parents."No! I mean, yes! Romeo, I want to be with Oliver. Please! Why can't you understand?" I asked frustrated. "Addie, I love you. Why can't you see that?" he asked. "I know," I grunted pushing past him. "If I may," Vidalia spoke up again. "What's stopping you from accepting Romeo as your mate? You're carrying his pup and your actual mate, Lawrence is running for his life. Not to mention, your true mate, Oliver if I understand it well, has accepted your rejection. I'm certain he knows that you're not carrying his pup by now," Vidalia explained.She paused
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 95: HIDDEN AGENDAS
Alpha King Lincoln's POV "Did you work him up?" I asked Violet. "Of course I did. I found the Tirado Crest as requested. It was right where his mother said it would be. Why do you all need it?" She quizzed. "It used to belong to Alpha Queen Lenora. I cannot believe it is in such good condition," I smiled. "Octavia should wear it for the challenge," she interrupted. "Precisely," I agreed. I'm sure Octavia would welcome this gift. Once Lex lays his eyes on it, I only hope it would be a reminder that he should not lead any pack. My thoughts momentarily stopped as Oliver and Jamela barged into my quarters. "My apologies, your grace, but this is urgent! Tell him what you told me," Oliver ordered Jamela. "O-okay. Klaus has been over run with Vincent's warriors!" she blurted. "THEY DID WHAT?" I roared slamming a nearby table to the ground. "UNFUCKING BELIEVABLE!" I growled sounding the alarm. Within a matter of seconds, Beta Felius came running into my chambers followed by Gamma Julius.
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 94: EVERYBODY HATES YOU
Alpha Lex's POVOn my way to my study, I nearly toppled over the she-wolf, Jamela. She scowled as I smirked at her trembling stature. I for one couldn't wait to see Alpha Santak. He would easily kill her with his bare hands. Too bad he's a part of Vincent's plan to take Klaus. I was happy when he whisked the Duke away too. If I'm lucky, he will die in the inevitable war. A look of disgust crept to my face the moment I spotted Octavia's parents, but I couldn't resist engaging."I see you two are wishing your sweet daughter luck. It's a good thing too because she's going to need it," I chuckled, but Alpha King Lincoln had me pinned to the wall in mere seconds. "How dare you address me as if I'm your equal, pup! You may roll around with scum like Vincent, but you must know he was never born to be an Alpha even if he shares the blood line. A true Alpha doesn't hold the red colored eyes like a rogue!" He growled cutting off my circulation.When he released his forearm from my throat I fel
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 93: TURNING BACK
Jamela's POV "Are you ever going to return?" Elena asked over supper. "Eventually, I have to face him," I sighed. "You didn't kill Lily! Stop letting your father, Alpha Santak get into your head," Elena snapped. "He has everyone searching for me like a maniac, but I'm not giving in that easily. I just need proof that I didn't do it," I explained. "Well, Oliver will understand. He could even help. I'm certain that he would," she reasoned. "His hands are much too full," I said dismissively. "Very well, stubborn little she-wolf. I hope you don't eat your words one day," she said clearing the table. I'm not sure why I returned to Foxchase. It could be that I knew Octavia would always know where I was or at least assumed. Maybe Oliver would come and save me from my terrible reality. Elena helped settle me in, especially after I updated her with the awful truth of the kingdoms going to shit. I wasn't sleeping, such as a night like tonight without having horrendous nightmares. Elena final
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 92: FEELING DISGUSTED
Violet's POVKillian had yet to sense me near. I was carrying a pup for Tavi's now husband and I felt disgusted. I had no desire to set eyes on Oscar. He would be disgusted with me as I was with myself, but I needed to face the monster he had become."I'll escort you down," Oliver said grabbing my hand. "Me too," Quinn joined grabbing my other hand. "Did you manage to rescue my pups? Killian is here. He would never suspect," I said frantically. "Calm yourself, please. Aiken, Tilly, and a few others have already departed. It shouldn't be long now," Oliver responded. "Thank you," I whispered. "There's no need to thank us. You are not well. We must get you the help you require. Staying held up in that small space isn't exactly helping. You should be here with family. Alpha King Lincoln has pushed for your removal of you as the kingdom of Koda's Luna and freed from your marriage for your mental state. It was easy to convince the elders seeing as Killian's mother admitted that she would fo
