2024-04-15 19:25:50Vera's POV
The nearer I walked towards Blake's room, the more painful my pain was, but I wasn't deterred. As I pushed myself along, I wondered what was happening to me.
The urgency of my assignment propelled me and I ignored my pain. In no time, I was standing in front of Blake's room.
Without knocking, I pushed the door open and my eyes fluttered crazily as I entered the dimly lit room.
I heard hushed voices. One was Blake's and the other was feminine. My heart beat fast as I brought my vision to focus.
"Blake…" I was just about to call when I heard Blake's cozy voice.
"Laura…I have missed you… hmm!" Blake's voice was followed by a light crackle and soft smacking of lips.
Laura? My eyes widened and I covered my mouth in shock. That bitch!
"You're sweet baby… hmm," Laura groaned, breathing sweetly. "Honey, I need you to fill me now, " Laura begged, opening her legs wider.
I could see them clearly now. Their naked bodies rammed into each other rhythmically and I staggered backwards.
Laura? She was the daughter of the Alpha of Riverside Pack. She was friends with Blake and I never thought they had things going on. How dare Blake do this to me!? Anger like molten magma burned within me but I couldn't do anything. I was pathetic, I needed his help and after seeing him cheat on me I still had to grovel at his feet.
"Ahh…" I gasped loudly, announcing my presence.
"Fuck! Who the hell…" Blake breathed heavily and rolled away from Laura. He quickly snatched up a pillow to cover his groins.
Laura locked gaze with me and sneered. She was unfazed. She gave me a demeaning glare, shielding her naked body behind Blake.
A look of disgust spread over Blake's face as he recognised me, I couldn't believe he was looking at me that way. My heart fluttered and an untold pain tethered down my body. Shifting from one foot to the other, I looked at Blake earnestly, hiding my pain.
"Calm down Laura, let me deal with this thorn," Blake muttered as he stared down at me.
“What are you doing here?” His tone was icy and he was glaring at me, just like his father had done.
“I…” I tried to speak but I couldn't. Fright had overwhelmed me, replacing my anger- I needed him. Unable to talk, I walked out of the room.
"Fuck! What a killjoy!" He cussed as he saw me leave.
I did not expect him to join me, but he did a few minutes later, wearing a shirt and vest.
“My father…”
“The traitor?” He asked, interrupting me.
“He is not a traitor! And you know it!" I snapped back in defense, but he waved me off with a scoff, “Then...tell me, what name do you have for someone like him? It seems you do not know what he did... He colluded with the enemies! He joined hands with enemies who wanted to infiltrate our pack!"
What!? I shook my head, not believing what he said.
"Well, now that you’re an Omega and the daughter of a traitor, I don't think I have any business with you.” He said without mincing words with his gaze fixed on me.
That's it! — I yelled in my head.
“I, Blake Simpson, reject you Vera Clams. Henceforth, you cease to be my mate,” he said emphatically and my heart crumbled. I watched in horror as Laura pulled him back into the room.
Tears rolled down my face and my legs wobbled. I stumbled my way blindly out of the palace, not considering being caught or not.
My parents colluded with the enemies? Impossible! Lately, my father had been disturbed about the pack's instability and Alpha Simpson's incompetence as a leader. But being the Beta, he was always seeking the best for the back. He can never collude with the enemies… I can still plead with Alpha Simpson! I fidgeted and took to my heels.
I hadn't taken many steps when I felt an iron-like grip around my arms. The palace guards caught me and before I could spill a word they threw me out of the palace.
"Alpha Simpson! Here is my plea! My parents are innocent. There was surely a mix-up. Give me a few days, I will come up with evidence!" I blabbed and continued to bang at the palace gates.
I was covered with grime and my strength began to fail. Those who were passing made a mockery of me and my family but I didn't care. Just then, I heard some of their banter.
"Isn't it scary? I can't believe it. They were even His Highness' people. He is the pack's Beta for crying out loud." "We should all be careful. His Highness is so irrational and unstable… he can put anyone to death whenever he pleases." "What do you know? The Beta and his mate are about to be executed at the execution ground already. Alpha Simpson is making an open show of them."
What! My eyes shone in horror and l fled from the palace immediately.
I ran down to the executicentertre and tore through the crowd. Joyce, my friend beheld me and rushed towards me shaking her head. She pulled me with all her strength and tried to drag me away from the scene. But she was no match for me. I was going insane and she couldn't contain me.
At the execution ground was my mother's lifeless body. She was in the pool of her blood and her head was lying beside her. My father was on his knees and a shiny machete was held towards his neck.
I screamed out loud as the beheader raised his blade. Just as he made a strike, Joyce bounced in front of me, shielding me. I fell to my knees and let out a great cry.

Vera's POVIt's been a week since my parents' unexpected demise. The images of their shredded bodies haunted me day and night and I couldn't bring myself to eat nor sleep. I languished in a corner of my cottage, crying day and night.Revenge burned inside of me like burning embers of coals, but my misery was eating me up. Realising I had to get back on my feet, I pushed myself up. I took a bold step out of my cover and the sun rays bathed my damp body.My strength was gone and I took baby steps until I could manage to start erect. My stomach burned with hunger and I clutched it tightly. I wished I could defy nature and burst out on an empty stomach to fix my mess, but it was all a dream, I needed to eat.I dragged myself into the pack house. Remembering that I must not be caught, I avoided the palace."I can do any kind of work, please hire me," I muttered, knocking at every door but I got nothing.

Vera's POV What!? I was spared! We can live! I yelled at Viola, my wolf, but she whimpered sorrowfully. My happiness vanished immediately as realisation dawned on me. I was dragged out of my house and now I belong to no pack. I knew no other pack apart from the Shifters Pack where I grew up. Does that mean I just become a wolf without a pack? I just became a rogue wolf! My heart pounded in my chest. I didn't know the ways of the rogues. All I knew was that they lurk around in the woods and they are saboteurs. Tears cascaded down my face as I made my way sluggishly out of the Pack mansion. I took a last look behind me and all that I had lost dazzled through my mind. "One day I will return and I will surely recover all that I had lost. I will avenge my parents and crush all those who crushed us," I muttered. "The chest!" I almost forgot. "I have to take it with me!" I turned around and rushed back to my cottage. I burst in and grabbed the chest. I smashed it angrily on the ground,

Vera's POVSlowly, I rose on my feet and began to sway away. My route was in the paths within the woods, now that I knew that they were after my life, I couldn't be more cautious.The chest! I dropped it when I wanted to attack the wolf earlier. I can't leave it behind, I must get it! I looked behind me with determination. Turning around, I began to drag myself back. With each step, I felt weaker and my vision became more blurry, my bleeding wouldn't stop either. It wasn't an easy choice but I had to do it. Luckily, I found the chest. It was lying just a few inches from the body of the wolf that I had killed earlier. I flipped it up and my heart skipped a beat. It was cracked open and empty! This can't be!" I lamented looking around for the unknown contents. I was sure that it wasn't empty when I found it in my father's bedroom.No! I yelled out loud and stormed about as I began a search for it. Not too far from the chest, I saw a stack of neatly folded papers. I found you! My heart

Awestruck, I staggered along as the guards dragged me on. My head rumbled in confusion and shock. How could this be? My chosen mate was a jerk and my second chance mate turned out to be my captor. He was no other person than the well-feared Alpha Joash! There was no escape from this. Loathing in the fury fire of hell would have been better! I was caught as a traitor and pieces of evidence were found on me. If all that I had heard about Alpha Joash was true, I did not stand a chance to come out of this alive, he would definitely kill me!"Viola…" I began to talk to my wolf but I was cut short as my back crashed against a rugged floor. The guards had hauled me into a tiny cell and thrown me on the floor. I groaned as pain sizzled down my spine. Shutting my eyes, my mind reverted to my father. I remembered all that he had taught me. He was my hero and his uprightness transcended my imagination. But things didn't add up… I raked my fingers through my hair as I remembered the letters aga

It was nightfall. My forehead was perched against the wall of the cell as I had begun to doze off. I had waited all through the day but nothing happened. Alpha Joash didn't show up as well as his guards. I couldn't have been more grateful.Suddenly, a crackling sound hit the air and my eyes flicked open. I saw two guards opening up the cell locks. My drowsiness cleared away immediately."Our misery just began," I hummed to Viola and I shut my eyes again, pretending to be fast asleep.Two strong hands gripped me by the shoulders and jeered me up roughly. Painful howls escaped from my lips as my feet hit the ground. I was still weak and sore from the torture earlier. I was hungry and thirsty, I had no strength left in me. My legs buckled under my weight and I fell to my knees.The guards did not give a damn, they dragged me along and I crawled on my toes and knees behind them.Outside, thick darkness had spread across the skies, but thanks to my wolf eyes, I could see clearly.

"Stop the pretence… I know you have come around. You don't have time for this… you are to resume to the Alpha's chambers by tomorrow. You have just a day to recuperate," an unfamiliar voice rang into my ears and I opened my eyes. My vision was a little hazy but I could see. Déjà vu ran down my spine, bringing me back to the day that I woke up in a clean room after I had fainted in the woods. But it's a different setting. This time, I was not in cuffs and I wasn't surrounded by people.I was lying on a bed and a sullen woman in a clean white robe sat across. She was staring at me through the lenses of her oversized glasses. There was no use pretending, she knew I had regained consciousness.I turned around and winced at the sharp pain in my head. My hand darted to the contour on my neck. There were masses of bandages and it hurt like hell. My last moment on the gallows rushed back to me. I remembered the dart, Alpha Joash, the gallows and how I had blacked out."My Alpha is an expert

It was quite a walk. Although I was fascinated by the scenery, I was all over the place. My body was still weak and my balance was zero. And the guards? They didn't care, they continued to push me along.When we burst into another corner, I knew immediately, ahead was the Alpha's chambers. The structures stood tall and they were breathtaking. Although they stood aloof and secluded from other structures in the pack, they were located at the pinnacle of the pack house and I realised that it could be seen from any point in the pack. It was almost as exquisite as the royal palace of the city's Alpha king and I marvelled.As we proceeded, I saw the maids, there were a handful of them. They wore the same uniform as mine and I found it fascinating. My pack was far behind the most insignificant development here and if I was in a different circumstance, I would have commended all that I had seen.I soon noticed the disdainful stares and glares. Almost everyone we met sneered at me. Oh yeah, the

It was late in the night, Pete had just concluded the training and a guard was leading me down. My head ached and all that Pete taught me rumbled in my head. Despite my weak body, I was put through rigorous training all through the day. Pete didn't give me any breathing space. It was too much for me."This will be your room," the guard that was leading me said and I jumped. I was startled. I tripped and slumped into the room through the open door. I lay there on the floor, thinking about how miserable my life had become. All I had suffered since my parents' demise flashed through my head and for the first time, I didn't cry, I just stared into space, blinking intermittently. The horrendous life where I did not know if I would die or live in the next second was gradually becoming my norm.I had forgotten all about food when I heard a knock at the door. Dinner was brought and I felt hungry instantly. I devoured the meal like I had never eaten all my life.This will be sufficient for ea

My mate saved the day and I was back in my pack. I was in the palace clinic. And I was treated.I didn't know how many days I had spent there, but I felt refreshed and energetic like never before.“You have come around,” Fred’s voice boomed and he walked in with a white lab coat and oversized glasses hanging on his nose “Nice to meet you. I am doctor Fred. Yuu sure have a long life!”“Get the hell out of here. Get my mate and get me some food. I am desperately hungry,” “Your wish is my command, Luna Vera,” he responded.The door flicked open and my mate walked in. Behind him were two maids. One with a try and a filled tea cup.

It's been two days since we laid Silas to rest. I was just returning from his side when Derrick rushed towards me.“Your Highness!” Derrick yelled and fell before. He looked disgruntled and apprehensive.“Your Highness! It is lady Vera!” He trembled. I wanted to disregard him as usual but his theatrics somehow got to me so I gave him an audience.“What is it about her? Do you know where she is? If she wants to talk, she knows the palace.“I am sorry your Highness. I didn't let her Ladyship out of my sight since she left the battlefield… She was in critical condition and had nowhere to go. Targon had been with her all along…“Traitors!” I yelled angrily.“Why are you telling me this now? I guess you need my help…”“Her Highness’ condition has worsened. Her wounds were not well treated. They festered and have become life threatening.“You bastard! Why are you just telling me this now? Where is she!?

JoashI declared myself as the interim Alpha King and all packs that were under my father's rule answered to me. It's been two weeks of renovations and realignment. I released most of my father's prisoners who were unlawfully detained.I also dissolved his chain of concubines that were locked up in his quarters. I set them all free and they went their own ways. I had the remnant of my people relocated to the palace while we began to renovate the moonlight pack that was demolished.I clenched my fists when I remembered what Silas said my father would have done if I had died and Vera lived. What abomination!?Everything was falling into place except Vera. I felt her connection as she tried to link me up on Steve's occasions but I shut her out of my head. Until she decides to return on her own accord I wasn't going to entertain any discussion with her. It was a special day. The day I had set aside to lay Silas' body to rest. I wanted him to lay beside Pete but at the same time it felt

I stumbled in through one of its openings and threw myself on the floor. Blood trickled down different cuts on my body and I felt feverish. To cap it up, I began to hear some rustling in the bush just behind me.Whoever it was, I didn't care. I just laid sprawled on the floor, waiting for whatever was coming. I had resisted all along and I was tired.I laid there but nothing happened. I must have heard wrongly, I said to myself and put my mind at ease.I was beginning to doze off when I heard the sound of swords. Someone was coming to attack me while the other must have shown you to defend meWho could that be? Targon? Did beta Derrick send someone after me? I let it all go as I was too weak to think. Slowly, my eyes closed up and I drifted into slumber while the sound of combat continued in the background until it was
Saved by the Ruthless Alpha The Price of Victory
DerrickThere in my hideout, I watched all that transpired in the King's camp. How Silas was killed and how Alpha Joash took the advantage of the distraction to get his father.Silas death was a painful one, but it wasn't my place to cast blame. It was proper to say that he sacrificed himself for the course that he believed in. He wanted his father's demise. When I saw the opening, I fired a twin arrow that took the King down. I couldn't let him slip out of our fingers again. We have had enough. Vera was caught up in the whole saga and I couldn't help but feel sympathy for her. The guilt in her eyes after she realized what she had done was heart rendering. I hope she forgives herself and that her mate won't hold it against her. It was an understandable misconception.After the cruel King took his last breath, I and the two other men who were with me burst into the camp. We dealt mercilessly with the soldiers who were planning to strike back after their King's unexpected death.They

Joash A twin arrow flew past me and landed on my father's back. I recognised them immediately. They were arrows from my men. Derrick! I muttered and didn't bother to find him.I looked behind me and my gaze settled on Vera. With a cold glare in her eyes, she threw another dart. I tried to deflect it, but I missed. I stood there and watched helplessly as the poisoned dart flew past my father's arm, cutting through it.“Aha….” Father groaned and tumbled to the ground with Silas’ body still hanging in his arms. He turned over his shoulders and looked at me. A proud laughter escaped his lips with blood sipping out by the sides“ We are not different! You used me against my son and my son against me. I will haunt…”“I call you Father,” I said, swallowing hard.“I'm not your father! You bastard! A son can never kill his father!” He continued to blabber but I had regained myself. I picked up his sword and slashed him on the neck. Silas’ body tumbled out of his arms as he held his neck a

JoashThe dart that came from behind almost cut Vera's neck but it didn't. I could tell that it was thrown by a skillful archer. Not until it landed, I didn't realise the target. The target was one of my father's men who had almost released an arrow to take me out.My eyes widened as I realized what was to come. Drinking the toxic wolfsbane was just a show, my father had another plan in mind. He wanted to take me out all at once. Just like Silas said. My death indeed has nothing to do with Vera's salvation. Wait. Who threw the dart? Is it Silas? Did he just save me?One of Vera’s darts landed on the bottle of wolfsbane in my grip, shattering the bottle. The second dart flew past me, I didn't know its destination.“Aha!!!” I yelled as the wolfsbane from the bottle spilled. It splattered in my hand and body, burning me up. I groaned in pain.“Who dares!?” My father thundered and stood up from his seat. No one knew it was Vera except me. Father grunted as he saw the man who was suppose

JoashA heart rending pain squeezed my heart and my vision turned red. It felt really hard to breathe and I coughed out loud. My body felt sore and I felt all that Vera was possibly feeling.With my hands still lifted up, I rose up to my feet and took heavy steps down the hills.“Do not go with me!” I gritted and Derrick stopped.“We have your back,” he barked.“Don't do anything silly,” I grunted and continued down the hill.“Don't come, mate. Save yourself,” Vera's whisper distilled into my mind.“Shut it!” Argh! That wasn't what I was supposed to say. “You wait for me. I'm coming to get you,” I said to her and shut her out of my mind.Just then, a weary but familiar voice broke into my head. It was Silas. “You fool. Hasten up. Come get you girl before it is too late. Father is a mas dog. If you stall for a second, he will kill her,” he said.“You loser! You should have kept her safe but you lost her.” My heart skipped a beat as I descended from the hills. Two soldiers grabbed m

The sound of battle on top of the hills ceased. I heard Derrick and my men shout if victory. It implied that the battle has been won and the King has stopped sending in troops. Now, this marked the beginning of my battle with my father. I remained there waiting for Derrick's summons. And all I could think about was Vera. How sweet my reunion with her would be. I was lost in thought when I heard Derrick's voice.“Your Highness,” He called me out of my reverie.I sprang up to my feet immediately, all dreams vanished out of my head.Derrick was bathed with blood. The look in his eyes broke my heart. I knew what it meant. It meant most of our men were slain.I rose up and parted his shoulder. I have been there before. I knew how it feels to lose one's men. Moreover this is our loss, not his alone.“How many are remaining?” I asked “Five,” he whispered.“It will be fine,” I said and climbed up the hills.“Victory at last.” I cheered him up.Suddenly a cry of joy sounded from my father's
