I sat down on the floor with my head resting on the bark of a tree there.I waited for hours till he was not yet back.Is it just a call or did he go away? So many questions slipped into my head.My wolf kept urging me to go have a look but I don't want it to seem like I am invading his privacy.Or for him to know that I am suspecting him.I want to take him unaware and slowly find out the hidden truth because right now, I don't trust him.Especially when I am all alone with him inside these woods and on the same roof.At least I need to find out what he is hiding from me.I lay down and stretched myself as I allowed my mind to wander around freely on what the issue might be.Since he brought me here, he has been acting strangely.Making hidden calls and always lost in thoughts.Immediately I noticed that I knew that something was wrong.It was unlike him back then in the pack.I stared up at the deep blue crystal sky as I awaited him.I mumbled out some soft music as I waited for him
Immediately the squeeze left my nose, and I knew that I was doomed.I could feel his piercing and fierce gaze directed at that huge tree that I had hidden.I could hear a rustling sound and I knew that he was walking in my direction.I knew that it is better that I come out on my own than allow him to find me.I swallowed and with clasped hands, quietly walked out of the hidden spot, surprising Jade.His eyes went wide with the skin in between his forehead caressing in a deep frown.I watched him as he gradually raised his head a bit with his eyebrow furrowed up when staring at meHe had a thoughtful look on but I knew that a lot of questions would follow very soon.He tilted his neck to the other side before laughing.His face looked cold as his fierce gaze swept over me.Though he looked scary, I refused to show my emotions.I maintained my spot and matched his gaze.He seemed shocked for a while before he smiled and looked away."How long have you been hiding there?" I shrugged an
It was already a damn night and I couldn't get enough sleep. I was stirring around the bed not being uncomfortable, not when Jade was acting up.I sat upright and trudged myself out of the bed and went toward the window to have a better view.The night stretched out so quickly more than I expected, it wasn't that long before the morning sun arose and now it is already dark.I opened the window and immediately the chilly breeze blew on my face, causing me to shiver a bit in coldness.Moving out of the window, I put on my jacket and walked back to the window.I sat down and looked out through the window. I glanced around but couldn't see Jade.I wasn't surprised because that has become his normal routine, he doesn't stay around here often.Sometimes, he does travel claiming that he left to investigate for the rogue's attack, and sometimes he won't arrive here for days.At times, when he is around, he will be hiding around the woods making some strange calls.Even at midnight, the calls
I watched him walk in when staring at me but I had my attention somewhere else.I only had one thing in mind and not him, he strides toward the side bed and keeps his phone.My gaze followed his every damn move without any of us saying a word.He kept the phone and walked back to the nearby chair to sit.He sat down and bent down a bit to pull off his shoes.My gaze kept moving quickly from him and then to his phone on the nightstand.I had this urge to rush forward and snatch that phone out of his presence and do what I wanted to do with the phone.He kept untying his shoelace slowly as if he knew what I had in mind.I rolled my eyes mentally at him, my patience is running slowly and time is ticking so fast, and yet he was still untying his shoelace like it was the only thing to do right now.I swallowed hard and continued sitting beside the window pretending to be looking outside when my gaze was fixed on the cell phone.Finally! …….. I puffed when I noticed him slip off his feet fr
Jade's pov: I gave her one last glance before dragging myself out of bed. She was sleeping, I stared at her innocent face and sighed.I rubbed my jaw repeatedly before tilting my neck to the other side with a sigh.I don't think that I can do this.I can't see myself hurting her or being the reason for her disappearance from the foul of this earth.I know that she doesn't know my real identity because if she does, she couldn't be around me now sleeping or eating food with me from the same plate.She is a good and innocent soul, I could feel a pull toward her that we both can help each other but I couldn't place my finger on what that could possibly be.I know that I will receive a lot of ransom if I have my plan executed.But I could not when I am suspecting her to have come from Willow's lineage.That mark around her neck level was the thing that had me suspecting her.I didn't buy that shit that it was a tattoo, she is hiding something from me and I knew that.Not like I am a sain
I pulled my hoodie to cover my face with my back facing him.He ignored his father's question and kept inching closer.I could feel my pulse quicken as I could feel his presence behind me.My heartbeat expedited at a faster rate.I am cringing within myself and praying that the Alpha could notice what is going on.I am scared that the guy might remember me by getting a glimpse of me.He saw me years back and I am scared that he might still have that image of me."Stop it……… What do you think you are doing?" The Alpha suddenly said, causing him to halt at his steps."We have an intruder inside the pack," he said, though I could still feel his gaze on me."Who told you that it is an intruder?" "Then do you know him, father?" sarcasm laced through his question despite how calm his voice sounded."I don't know him," "Then that means that he is an intruder and we need to know the reason why those guards allowed him inside," "Allen, leave my office," the Alpha demanded.So his name is Al
His words kept vibrating in my ear as I walked out of his office.My life is now at risk, I knew that the man could go to any extent to make sure that he accomplished his plans.I have worked for him for more than forty years now and this is how he planned to pay me back.I have never failed him despite everything that he did to me in the past, yet to keep his reputation that I helped him to build.He threatened to end my life because of the time wasted to get that done.If I decided to label it against him if I decided to leak everything that he has done.I will also be dragged into this mess and that will also affect my life and I knew him too well to end my life before the case could even go any viral.Still clouded with different thoughts, I didn't hear footsteps approaching me.Still, in my thoughts, I felt someone tap me from behind.Quickly snapping my head behind, I was met with the same black almond-blazing eyes.I tried to run away immediately but he yanked me back.Using my
"Albin," he called with his hold still on me."What is going on here?" He strides forward a bit to get a better view."Have you seen him before?" I watched Allen, asked.Albin looks at me and then at him before saying."Who the fuck are you?" "As I said earlier, I am a nobody," I saw his jaw clenched."I know that you are a nobody because you seemed like one," he disdained."But who the hell are you!!" He thundered.I almost flinched back but I behaved myself…… Never allow your opponent to know the effect that they have on you.He smirked and took a few strides forward.Allen was still holding me, stopping me from escaping.His eyes kept wandering around the other end of the hallway like he was looking for someone.I have this feeling that whoever that he mind linked might not be good to me.I need to get away before the person arrives.I could notice them communicating with their eyes, and I knew that whatever they were saying was not a good one. Allen have a tight smile lingering
Amelia's pov: Standing at the door with Jade laughing his ass out, I heard someone call my name more like a whisper. Turning around after I must have pulled off the beard with my hair loosened and allowed it to flow down my back. My eyes widened in shock at the person behind the pillar. "Allen…….!" I called with doubt. Jade stifled before peeping his head to see the guy standing in the hallway looking back at me. "What is going on there?" Jerome's voice from inside. But none of us said a word, our eyes were fixed on the gut outside, immediately his gaze connected with that of Jade it darkened. "Allen," I called again, drawing his attention back to me. "You are the maid all these while and………" he stared at me and then back at Jade and Jerome. "Hmmm…… " I cleared my throat, "Yeah," I nodded. And just then Ryan walked toward us, on noticing the scene in front of him, I saw his jaw drop. Trying to take a step back, Allen rushed him and smashed him against the wall nearer to him
Allen's pov:Things were tough and devastating for me, my life has never been confusing and broken for me.People that I dine with and call my family are the exact people that brought me pain and killed my real parents.I have done a lot of research on my background finding some hidden truths that I never knew existed.And how the so-called Alpha Khalid killed the Willows just for power Amelia was the only one that survived the attack and that's how she came into the pack. Finding out the unclean business that he does and every other illegal thing.Since the incident, I don't feel anything for him again, merely looking at him makes my stomach sick.The only thing that flickers in my eyes when staring at him is hatred and anger.Though I shouldn't have achieved the research without the help of Ryan who helps me by connecting me to some old scholars.Sitting beside my window, the door was pushed open and Ryan walked inside.I called him because of the mystery maid that I saw him with e
It has been almost fucking two weeks now and Allen hasn't spoken to me, we both have bumped into each other at times but he never stopped to say hi or even acknowledge my presence.I might act tough and keep a long face but deep down it hurts, especially when the bond is still there.Luckily, I have succeeded in pulling Ryan into helping us sneak in to help Allen.Hug! The dude accepted without a second thought not when his friend's title and that of his status were at risk.Yeah! You all can call it manipulating but I don't care.Tell me how do I save someone or get you help when the person wasn't talking to me though it seems like we both have the same priority now?Especially now that he finds out about his true identity, but I don't know what he has in mind since he has not disclosed anything to me yet. His next move is something that I don't know, I can't possibly go asking Ryan, that smart dude will find it suspicious.But one thing is for sure, I know that his mind is set on ho
Things are about to get severe!Rushing after Allen who seemed outraged. I spared Jade who lowered his head in shame one last glance and ran after Allen before Ryan could make any move."Allen……!"Allen…….!" Allen……. Allen!" I kept calling him but not even one glance was spared my way.It was as if he didn't hear me, this is the first time that I am seeing him snub me. He does get angry at times but snubbing me is a no-no, he has never done that.Before I could stretch out my hand to touch him, I noticed a figure walking up to us.Slightly turning to know who might be the intruder, boom……. It was the last person that I expected on this earth, Albin!Seeing me his gaze widened with his jaw dropped as he glanced between angry-looking Allen, me, and back to the house."What is going on here?" He seethed but got no reply.Allen had a lot roaming through his head that he didn't even acknowledge or even spare him a look.Walking past him, Albin tried pulling Allen back but seeing the murd
On an alert, we all whirled our heads in the direction where the sound was coming from.My ear perked up with my eyes changing a darker shade of my wolf's eyes so that I could see clearly anything behind or lurking behind the wood.Using the back of my palm, I lifted it with a wave exhorting them to remain calm and vigilant but just then someone emerged from the shadows."Alpha……!" With our eyes widening, we all say in unison.Chuckling, he smiles at us especially when his eyes lock with mine."We thought that you left for your penthouse," I said. id as if I wasn't happy seeing him here."No! Sorry but I changed my mind," he said."Running will only make me seem like a fool and coward," I nodded at him with my eyes swiveling around in search of his pack members, "Where are your family and that of pack members?" Looking behind him, he muttered, "You all can now come out," And just then, crowds started emerging from the trees and coming into view. Am confused though, why hide before?
Chapter hundred and twenty-tenAmelia's pov:It was a great thing escaping from that fight, not after the dagger might have stabbed Allen.This is definitely not how we planned to end the stuff, I planned on finishing them right that moment though I found out something that the guy clothed in black fabric fighting me was actually Albin.Though I was glad that the warriors of the moonlight were ready and alerted like we planned, everything went well till Allen got stabbed.I still can remember my conversation with Allen earlier concerning the moonlight pack before he got a mind link from his father.I held that conversation earlier to extract information from him which happens to work out, messing with his head a little since I know that he is gonna choose me over his family though. So it won't be that hard having him do what I needed. Flashback"Uh, I guess, right," standing up, I turned to leave but he held me back."Is not really what you think, I can explain,"
Albin's pov:My gaze swept toward Allen who just stood there looking unbothered.Still having those blank expressions, I so much wanted him to scream or do something and stop acting like he cared not.This attitude of his is slowly getting on my nerves. This is a trap and we just hurl into it, someone leaked our plan and my mind is telling me that it is this mug brother of mine."Someone got on us but the funny part is that we are not going to back down," I said to them."Shouldn't we go back through the hole?" One of the guards said.I so much wanted to shove his head immediately that word left his lips but killing them, will keep reducing my warriors."That will make us a coward," I snapped."But that is for our safety," Allen said, earning a smirk from me."Our safety, huh," I grinned wickedly."Our safety when you……." I point at him."Can explain better about this sudden hole and this person here," I point to the hole and then outside the window."We are covered in all anger by t
Chapter hundred and twenty-eightAlbin's pov:Ambling out of the room, I saw him walking outside toward where the guards were all waiting for me.I smirked and walked toward the direction of the guards like the newly elected Alpha.Stopping in front of them, my face hardened as I stood in their presence.They all bowed their heads and greeted me submissively.Allen seemed reluctant, smirking as I raised my brow at him. He has no choice but to also bow his head."Oh! Brother, you always have to know that I am your superior no matter what, have that at the back of your thick head that you will always be below me," patting his shoulders not minding that people were there, I smirked."You will always be below me," leaning almost to his ear, I whispered with a deadly smile before distancing myself away from him.Everyone seemed uncomfortable as their eyes darted at me and Allen.Clapping my two hands together, I yelled at them, "Arrange everything we are leaving in no time," I watched as
Standing in front of the window with a glass of wine whirling around my palms, I stare outside looking at the pack members going about their duties.This week has been stressful and tiring, it has been from one problem to the other.My father, the mighty Alpha that was well known for his fierce and vicious ways, lost to that mug of an Alpha of the moonlight pack all because of some stranger wolves.And only that but my father's business that he has all over and around America and some other countries clashing and crumbling one after the other.Who knows the next one crumbling, thinking of this one and having the one that you least expected shattered in your eyes. It has been a bad week, let me just say month because we are losing money here and there as each day passes by.The people behind this tragedy still remain unnoticed.This is terrible and at the same time frustrating because no one knows the people behind the sudden tragedy.Thinking that everything is under control is a lie
