Vera

I wasn't sure why I came down here, but here I am, stalking Laura.

Finding Laura here wasn't sure. It wasn't like I had a rendezvous with her or something.

The night when Laura lured me out and captured me filled my head. Memories came tumbling in and I remembered all her words of woes and lies.

I walked around and stopped at the point where she slaughtered me. In the bush ahead was the spot where I saw Killan in my unconscious state. What about him? I haven't heard from him since I absconded from the clinic… He wasn't at the mating ceremony either.

Slowly I bent over the spot where I died and a dangerous smirk fell out of my face. Revenge is always the sweetest.

"My lady! I found something!" Dale's voice pierced through the night from a distance. I rose to my feet, following the direction of his voice. He had gone to scout for a place where we could lay our heads overnight.

I joined Dale and what I found was amazing! There was a cabin in the middle of nowhere. It was rickety an

    Joash "Any progress?" I asked Derrick as I sensed his presence in my office. My back was turned towards the entrance, I couldn't see him but I knew it was him."No, My lord… she couldn't say much before she lost consciousness… she lost a lot of blood before the physician arrived."I clenched and unclenched my fists, images of how I stabbed her, painted my memories and I snarled, "What did she say before she fainted?""The same old stories, My Lord. She was a spy planted by your side from the onset but she had been looking out for you. That was her testimony," Derrick said almost convincingly."When she comes around, you should do a better job. Get the truth out of her, we are running out of time." I patted Derrick's shoulders. "If it takes you to use your charms, use it. It's an order."I had just walked past Derrick when he whispered. "What if she is telling the truth? Her testimony is constant and unwavering.""Derrick!" I yelled from the doorway. "Do your job! Use your head, not y

    VeraA cruel laughter escaped my lips as I watched the fire burn. In no time, I expected our enemies to file out in their numbers. I couldn't wait to watch their madness when they saw the cabin on fire."My lady, we have to get away from here. We need a hideout where we can watch and launch an attack. It's too exposed here," Dale advised.Still laughing like a maniac, I rose to my feet and followed Dale from behind."One more thing! Don't snitch on me. This is my revenge, not anyone's. If you mind- link Alpha Joash, I will knock you out.""Your wish is my command." He bowed and brought out a leaf. "Hold onto this, it will conceal our scent," he said and led me into the thick woods.We found a place suitable enough and we hid.A few minutes later, someone came along, riding on a horseback. He checked the situation from a distance and didn't go near the inferno.I picked up my bow and arrows, ready to fire."Not yet my lady, we need to lure them out in their numbers. If we shoot now, th

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Help Has Come, Alpha Joash is here!

    JoashI couldn't hide my tears this time. I howled repeatedly and allowed my tears to flow as I fumbled with Pete's body.Realising that she was telling the truth made her death too much to bear. I just lost Jenny and now Pete. Both of them died because of my ill-judgement and selfishness. This would haunt me for a long time.I still wondered how Father could brutally murder Pete. I thought he loved her. I thought he doted on her but it turned out that I was wrong. He only saw her as a tool to get rid of me and when she failed in her mission, he took her out. He was a bigger monster than I thought.I will kill him and avenge Pete's. I had run my entire life but it got me nowhere. I didn't want to commit sacrilege by killing him, but what father kills his daughter without batting an eyelid? He isn't a father and killing him isn't sacrilege.Going after him would not be an easy feat, but it's okay. I don't mind if I lose my life, but he must be killed."Your Highness…." Derrick called."

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Alpha Joash is here

    VeraI remained in my hideout, cringing at every sound of clashes that penetrated my ears. I watched Blake and his men cut down the Riverside men and the Alpha King's men in fascination.I was instructed to hide until help arrived. Blake and his men are here, help has come but I was still hiding, cringing, clutching my swords uselessly… I was waiting for someone else.The war raged on but a piercing battle cry stole the air. It caught my attention and I peeped out. My mouth sagged in horror as I watched the scene before me.The Alpha King's men had turned the war against the men from the Riverside pack. They slew them mercilessly alongside Blake's men.Weren't they supposed to be allies? They were supposed to fight as a team, bring Blake down and come after me. But I guess Alpha King Jason was done with them. He would destroy the Riverside Pack alongside the Shifters Pack and the Moonlight Pack. Of course, he didn't need Laura Woods, her father and the Riverside army any more. I wa

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Alliances and Rivalry

    JoashI rode out of my comfort, leading my army. I was going out to save Vera but it was essential to know that this wasn't about Vera, it was technically about me. Vera and others were just caught up in my father's caprices."Find Vera and get her back to safety," I yelled over the noise of the horses' hooves. "When she is safe, you can join the fight… Her safety is paramount if we will win this conspiracy!""But…""No buts! Derrick! Just do as I have said!" "Taken!" Derrick pledged and went through a different route. It was strategic for him to keep a low profile until he got Vera.We continued into the unknown but we weren't lucky. We were attacked about a few yards away from the battlefront. It turned out that our enemies had set an ambush for us and were lying in wait.My defence was excellent and they couldn't break through. They were all wasted and with that strength, we galloped into the war zone.My eyes widened at the number of bodies lying on the ground, dead and wounded.

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Vera Is Missing

    DerrickI didn't have time for Vera's Banter. I had to whisk her away from here and take her to safety. I needed to rejoin Alpha Joash on the battlefield in time.I knew she wasn't going to listen, so I knocked her out and flipped her on my shoulders. Footsteps were approaching. The dead guards must have mind-linked their men. With Vera unconscious, it wouldn't be good if they caught up with me.Like a feather, I moved swiftly and lightly on my feet. I manoeuvred my way and soon I was out of the woods. Luckily we weren't caught. I headed down to where I had reined my horse. I slung Vera on and I mounted the horse. I balanced myself on the saddle just behind her body and burst into full speed.She would wake up anytime soon and I didn't want to be anywhere around here when she did.I had just ridden a few minutes when she stirred awake. I receded and brought the horse to a halt."What did you do to me? Where are we? What about his Highness?" She asked."I am sorry, Your Highness… We

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   You Will Beg For My Love

    VeraMy blood boiled as Beta Derrick turned back. Why did he leave the battlefront in the first place? We were supposed to be a backup to His Highness. The most painful part was that he ignored my questions and only did what he wanted. He said his Highness was in danger. My body tingled and I wondered how bad it was."It is nothing serious," I chanted all the way back, trying to calm my nerves. I remembered seeing Blake on the battlefield. It was also a reassurance. He would join an alliance with Alpha Joash's army and together they could outwit the royal army. It was a relief that the Riverside army had been wiped out.We arrived at the scene and I grabbed the sword that Beta Derrick threw my way."Stay close but do not follow too closely. I am entering the zone where the battle is the hottest," Beta Derrick warned as he launched into the battle. My eyes blinked at the scene before me, I remained stuck in a spot without realising it. The sight was more gory than the battle at the

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Tormented

    DerrickIt's been weeks now and Alpha Joash hasn't come around. The royal physician together with other doctors in the Moonlight Pack were trying all that they knew. They sent men out in disguise to seek herbs, magic… cures, but none of them have returned. Pete's body was preserved in one of Alpha Joash's secret places. I couldn't bring myself to bury her without order from His Highness. When he left for the battle, he made himself clear. He instructed that Pete's body should be kept in shape until he returned.If he regained consciousness and realized that Pete's body was already decaying under the ground, it would be the death of him. … Jenny is gone and Vera is…. missing? I am not sure if she is alive or not. I still couldn't mind-link her and there was no trace of her. I had sent men out in search of her but they had gotten no lead. They didn't find her body either, this was the only glimmer of hope that I held on to. Maybe… maybe she is alive somewhere.But I was sure she wasn

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Soaring Together

    VeraWhen I came around, it was daytime. The sun seeped in through the blinds, lighting up the whole place.I looked at the strange room and bed then it all came back rushing. 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. The other was with a covered dish.Seeing them reminded me of my days of little beginnings. When I served tea in uniform and I was manipulated by forces that I didn't even recognise. It

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Back Home

    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!? Lead the way!” I thundered and they made my horse ready.Derrick led the way and I was s

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   I'm dying, let Joash know

    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

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   A new Dawn

    VeraMy body seemed to be shutting down and the closest place for me to hide was the Shifters pack. This time, I didn't give a damn about my connection with the pack. 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

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Victory at last

    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

  • Saved by the Ruthless Alpha   Silas Died

    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
