* Princess Zeina *It was a beautiful evening where the sky was filled with stars and the moon was shining brightly, apart from that I no longer worry so much about the problems I had on the pack. As the new Alpha I am struggling to keep the pack together with the threat of rogues knowing the history that happened here before I took over. It's a good thing that I have the support of my brother the Alpha King, he was my relief knowing that he always has my back. Now I no longer have doubts that I can protect this pack.I head to my bedroom when the wind blowing from the balcony gets colder. I locked the door of the balcony and closed the curtains before getting under the mattress. One thing that's great here in the West is even when it is hot and sunny in the morning in the evening it becomes cold which is a good thing.But when I close my eyes and think of sleeping my ears perk up and I hear some growling, a faint sound of someone like it's in pain. My eyes opened wide, the noise was
* Robert Greene *I woke up the following morning with the doctor examining my pulse, his eyes flashed when he saw me open my eyes lids and I snatched away my arm before he could hold it again."Hello there! Good morning! I am glad that you finally can wake up."I got up to sit on the bed and leaned against the headboard. He looked young, probably a few years younger than me. The smile on his face just made me feel annoyed for no reason."Who are you?"It's a little rough on my neck, but I found my own voice to ask him. Probably the groaning from the previous night made my throat go dry. I looked for some water and found a bottle on top of the table. I grabbed it, opened the lid, and devoured the water."I am your doctor, well my name is Andre, one of the doctors in the pack but when it comes to the Alpha house I am mostly the one in charge. Her Majesty has appointed me a task to see to it that you are well. Are you still thirsty?"The bottle was empty when I finished, I crumpled it a
* Princess Zeina *"How is he doctor?"All eyes were fixed on the bed where Chief Greene lay motionless. His body was still, but his expression had shifted, gone was the look of pain and unrest that had haunted him for days. Now, it seemed he was only dreaming, as though whatever plagued him had temporarily loosened its grip. It made me feel at ease.The pack doctor turned to me, bowing his head slightly in respect. "He is actually in good condition, Your Majesty. I believe his human form is struggling to adapt to the surge of strength granted by his awakening. That's likely what caused him to collapse. However, I believe once he completes his shift, things will stabilize. The fight with the guards triggered the process. He's close, very close, to fully taking on his wolf form."Relief swelled in my chest, and I let out a slow, calming breath. It was the first good news we'd had in days, about Cheif Greene and his transformation from human into a wolf."They fought because he was try
* Princess Zeina * As I was deep in my sleep, wrapped in the kind of darkness that only true exhaustion can bring, something tugged me out of it. I didn't know what it was at first, there had been no loud bang, no violent shake but suddenly, my eyes flew open. My heart skipped a beat. The room was cold and silent except for one thing a low, guttural groan. It wasn't far. It was close. Too close. The sound echoed in my ears like a wolf's howl carried on the wind, only this wasn't outside. It felt like it was inside my room. I sat up slowly, heart thudding, and turned to my right. My breath caught in my throat. A shadow no, a figure was standing just beside my bed. Watching me. Staring. I jerked up, fear instantly sharpening my senses. “Who are you?!" I demanded, my voice still hoarse from sleep but edged with alarm. The figure groaned again, low and strange. Fumbling, I reached for the lamp on my nightstand and switched it on. The dim glow revealed the face I least expected
* Althea *I watch my reflection in the tall mirror in front of me and wonder how I become this beautiful. Dressed up in a fancy white long dress that fitted my upper body and flowed onto my heels like a fairy. My hair is skillfully tied upwards in a neat bun and my ears are adorned with white pearls that my mother owned when she had her wedding. Other than that there is no particular jewels on my body."Oh! You are looking so lovely, Althea! I was sure that light makeup would do on your bare face since your skin is so smooth and you possess such natural beauty."Rima expressed her thoughts while standing behind me. She is a distant relative who volunteered to do my makeup for this special day. Yes, today is a special day as I will stand on the altar and change my surname to the wolf who bought me. Reminding myself of this fact brought fear to my heart but I have to be strong!"Thank you, Rima! I couldn't believe, that the person inside that mirror was me. You did a great job!"My smi
* Zed *I don't feel the urge to get up and start the day, even when my father had already announced that this day is going to be my wedding day since a few years ago. But the noise of the servants going back and forth from a few meters away is already vivid in my sensitive ears. I let out a grunt and opened my eyes to get up with only my boxers on. My feet headed straight to the front door of my bedroom and I opened the door."Good morning your majesty!"There was a slight tremble in their voices as they bowed their head and greeted me. One male and three female lower-class wolves, ready to serve me with the white suit on their hands and the new shoes along with other things that I have to use. "Morning! Come inside, get the things ready while I am taking my shower."I turned around and headed to my bathroom, groaning with dislike. If only I could avoid this day from happening. But my father has made me swear, and an Alpha is not going to turn back against his words. If I had not giv
* Althea *Two wolves are seated in front of the black BMW while I stay silent at the back. Both were serious as according to the Alpha King's Beta who sits near the driver, we are going to be late. The Beta who introduced himself as Osouf is a tall man with the build of a warrior, he made my brother feel insecure and I couldn't even say no when he told me to get in the car after his greeting to my mother. Although the Villa given to us is near the Royal Palace it would take thirty to forty minutes on a four-wheel drive to get there."We are about a few minutes away, are you alright back there Miss Blanco?"His voice made me look forward. "Yes I am fine, thank you."He looks at me from the rear mirror and then looks at the driver. "I am informing the Alpha King of our arrival, they are already waiting for us."As he mentions the Alpha King, I couldn't help but feel nervous. I have not seen him in person and yet here I am, marrying him. It's obvious that he was not interested in me, an
* Zed *It was wrong, I know I shouldn't have listened to the voice at the back of my head. But when I held her hands and I got to see her face up close, an urge to kiss her was too strong. Something that I have never felt before. The feel of her soft skin when I pushed the ring on her finger and her touch made me want to get more of her. I could've escape the kiss, the Priest would not insist on me to follow tradition since I am the Alpha King however I was curious of her lips.As I lowered my head and felt her lips so soft like feathers, I became tempted to kiss her more. I nibbled her soft lips let out my tongue and brushed her mouth with a quick stroke. Damned sweet thing! I have to take all the courage to push myself away and face the crowd before the Priest announces."Ladies and gentlemen! Congratulations to the Alpha King and his bride!"The cheerful announcement coming from the Priest echoes through the crowd after I move away from her just like nothing happened."Smile and g

* Princess Zeina *"How long has he been treated?"My brother's question made me look up to him from the sight of the man on top of the bed, the second day he was confined in the guestroom of my Alpha house. The Chief of the town's police station is here, and his fellow officers have declared him missing."This is the second-day brother, Aldin was able to save him from the rogue but he was already bitten."My brother looked at the man and then walked away from him to the window of the guestroom. "I know him, his father used to be a friend when he served as the Chief in one of the towns near the Palace. I didn't know that his son would be assigned here."Surprised by the calmness of my brother revealing a not-so-comfortable truth. "Oh! Then his Father would probably be notified that he was missing! This will raise complications on our pack."He sighed and looked at me. "Yes, that's for sure. His father knows about our existence, it would only take a matter of time before he would seek
* Princess Zeina *“What happened Aldin!?”My voice was almost hysterical, I saw the man lying on top of the bed and the doctor who was looking after him worriedly bowed his head.“Your Majesty, can we talk outside it may not be good for the patient if you scold me here.”I sighed and then glanced at the doctor. “Make sure that you save him, doctor.”He nodded. “I will do my best, your Majesty.”I walk out of the guest room first, knowing that Aldin is following behind me. He closed the door and I walked towards the benches outside, in the garden of the Alpha house. The flowers have been blooming, it should make me smile but I am far from happy today.“Start talking Aldin.”My voice laced with worry and anticipation, I know that his bringing in a human patient to the Alpha house is bad news.“Your Majesty, we were watching the Chief at the police station. However, we failed to notice that the rogue had learned about where he lived. Our warrior was almost too late to rescue him, good t
* Robert Greene *The whole week was spent patrolling and digging into the whereabouts of the people who lived near the area where the incident happened but still, we couldn't find the wolf. The animal who attacked both of my police officers and killed Gary has still not been apprehended. I spent the first day of the weekend cleaning my apartment and took some rest then waited for my fiancee to come. She said she would visit me on the weekend, and when it was almost sundown I thought she was late.The knocks on my apartment door made me get up from the couch. Thinking that it could be my fiancee outside, I removed the lock and opened the door to see my guest."What are you doing here?!"The same man who knocked on the doors of the police station that night is now standing in front of me."Coming to finish what I started."My impulses kicked in as I attempted to close the door on his face, but his hand got in the way and pushed me hard into the inside. In my years of combat and trainin
* Robert Greene *I woke up from the noise outside my office and didn't realize that I had slept on top of my desk. The cleaner had just turned on the hover and doing his job before the other officers came in. I yawned and stretched my sore muscles from a few hours of being stiff as I stood and opened the door."Good morning Chief, rough evening?"The eyes of the old man looked at my uniform and smiled. "Morning Arnold, yeah it was kinda rough and lonely being alone on the night shift."He nodded. "Would you like some coffee Chief?"I shook my head. "No, I'm going to take a shower at home and get some sleep, coffee would just prevent that."He smiled and continued what he was doing, I opened the door of the station and looked outside. Everything seemed to be normal like there was nothing happened last night. I waited for a few minutes until Edmond came."Good morning Chief, ready to leave?"I nodded and took a deep breath in, finally I could go home. "Yes, but before that I want you t
* Robert Greene *"Good evening Chief!"I was greeted by Edmond and the intern at the entrance. It was past six p.m., and I was surprised that they were still around. "What are you guys doing here? Go home now. Your overtime is not paid."Both of them carried their things and were probably just waiting for me to arrive. "We're just about to go home, Chief. Are you sure you're alright with doing the night patrol alone? I mean, maybe you can skip it until we receive the new people coming in the next day."There was a hint of worry in Edmond's voice when I met his gaze. "Go on home now Edmond, and come early tomorrow. This will only be temporary, we can't let a night pass without doing patrol, especially after what happened."He sighed and signaled the intern to go on ahead. "Goodbye Chief."The intern bid a short farewell which I replied with a nod. Edmond looked at me for a couple of seconds."It's because of what happened the last time that makes me feel worried Chief.""Go home Edmo
