MOST DIFFICULT SITUATION"Alpha Marcus?" Elena yelled inaudibly, almost speaking to herself, but the men overheard her and nodded their heads. She knew instantly that this was just the beginning of their troubles. Since Alpha Marcus already knew where their hideout was, he wouldn't hesitate to return with his soldiers and make sure he gets what he wants."No, no! I can't let this happen." Elena mustered to herself, but it seems the rogue wolves heard her, including Garfield who was now buried in his own thoughts.Levi glanced at her. "You can't let what happen? What's going on in your mind?" She asked. "I'm sure you don't know that man, do you?""Of course, yes I do know him!" Elena yelled back and held either side of her face with both hands. "That man is the monster who has always been after my life. And now, he wants to take my child away from me."Elena couldn't contain her fears anymore as she began to sob, giving way for tears to fill her eyes. Garfield, noticing her mood, ran
THE PREPARATION BEGINSAlpha Marcus put his ears down in case he would hear anything totally different from what he planned on doing. Asides that, his mind was already fully made up on getting back his baby, and not minding afterwards if Elena was dead or still alive.He has always needed an heir to take over from him and this was his best ever opportunity to make that happen since no other maid gave him what he wanted, exactly the way Elena did.He still longed to see Elena to some extent, but he didn't allow that deter him from getting his baby back. He was aware of the fact that Elena would never want to get back with him, and he was also not willing to stress himself over her; as long as his baby and heir was by his side, he could get as many other maids as he wanted, if at all he wanted to be satisfied."Buckle up your armor guys! We leave here by noon!" Alpha Marcus screamed at the soldiers who were already sharpening their various swords and getting their horses ready. There we
THE ENCOUNTER"Screw that!" Alpha Marcus yelled at the soldier and paced around the palace building. "We are set to leave and I wouldn't want to hear any stories. As for you, you will remain here in the palace and henceforth, you cease to be one of my soldiers."He meant just what he had said. He immediately began to step out of the palace, riding on his own horse while the other soldiers followed behind him.Their weapons were all glittering and ready to destroy anyone who stood by their way. As a result of how fast they rode on the horses in a bid to catch up with Elena and her cohorts, they arrived at the cave earlier and began to scrutinize everywhere in search of them.They got into the cave but there was no single person in there anymore, they had escaped to God knows where.Alpha Marcus held his jaw furiously. "I knew this was going to happen, I definitely knew it would come to this." He cried, beating his cheek. "If only we had left earlier than this." One of the soldiers who
Alpha Marcus shot them a glare and burst out in laughter. "How outrageous of you guys to have suddenly become intimidated by this little occurrence which just happened right now. Do you ever believe that the old woman meant what she said earlier? Or is it because of the manner at which she vanished after threatening your lazy asses?" They gave no response, they were still trying to recover from the shock of what had just happened. One of the soldiers finally spoke up after a long silence. "I don't think I can continue with this search anymore, my Lord. Permit me to return back to the palace and await your arrival." He peered at the other soldier who nodded his head in support of what he had just said. "That's right, Alpha Marcus. I don't think I can also continue, I have to save my life for those who care about me - my family and every other person who is counting on me." He said."Oh I see!" Alpha Marcus exclaimed and let out a smile. "It is I who doesn't have a family and also wis
Little did Elena know that Garfield had prior motives for asking her those questions. She didn't see it as a big deal since they had already gotten used to each other.Garfield sighed at her story and rubbed his cheek. "I'm sorry you had to pass through all that but it's all over right now because I'm here for you, always." He muttered and embraced her in a hug.Elena wiped her tears and replaced them with a smile. She paused and stared at Garfield, almost getting lost in his eyes. She fixed her gaze on him like she was waiting for him to say something to her. "By the way, why did you decide to ask me about this right now?" She asked. "I mean we have been together for a while now and you've never asked me all these. Why does it have to be now? What inspired you to ask?""Ah. Come on sweetheart, it just came to my mind now and I decided to ask and be certain. Have I done the wrong thing by asking?" Garfield quizzed, his eyes meeting Elena's."No, not at all. I was only trying to be cl
CAUGHT UPElijah jumped into the underground and trailed through the stairs. The stairs were longer than he had initially thought, and he kept wondering if it was ever going to end.Jennifer noticed a guard coming towards her with a bright flashlight pointing at her direction. She realized instantly that she would be in great trouble if the guard ever caught her trying to escape.Without hesitating further, she ran into a hidden place in the room and squeezed herself into the little space she could find.The guard soon arrived in the room and began to search every nook and cranny of the room, as if he had been ordered to do so.He searched thoroughly as if his life depended on it, and when he didn't see anything amiss, he stepped out of the room through the underground where Jennifer had escaped from.Jennifer ran out of the room with the speed of light the instant she saw the guard leave. She thanked the Moon goddess silently for saving her, because her life would have probably been
REGRETSThe two guards, alongside Elijah soon arrived at Elijah's home and began to parade about everywhere. They pushed the closed door and tried to force their way in, but they found out that it had already been locked."Shit!" One of the guards yelled and banged his fists on the hard door, writhing in pain afterwards. "I don't think anyone stays here, this man is trying to fool us." He said, pointing at Elijah.Elijah's face grew with suspense and he began to wonder what was exactly going on and why the guards were suddenly tagging him as a liar. Before he knew what was happening, the other guard ran off towards the door once again and kicked it hard with the sole of his feet.The door went open instantly and he stormed in at once, ordering the other guard to remain outside with Elijah, while he went in to find out if there was indeed anyone there.Arriving into the sitting room which was the very first room before other rooms, the guard saw no trace of anything or anyone, not even
NARROW ESCAPE"I believe I am an Alpha also, and as such, I am also privileged to have a private discussion with Alpha Marcus no matter the stunts he's trying to pull." Elijah said to himself, his voice erupting in the whole room. "As soon as he returns back from his search trip, I must definitely have a word with him."He jumped on the bed afterwards and slept off.***In all the time Alpha Marcus had spent in front of the cave, after he had killed his soldiers, he saw no trace of any of the other soldiers returning back to him anytime soon.So he summoned the courage and rode on his horse, towards the direction of the place they had passed earlier into the forests.He had not rode a long distance when he discovered the jacket of one of the soldiers, yet there was no trace of them. He trailed the path where he had seen the jacket until he got to a strange spot with no single trees or grasses in sight. He walked farther more, although in curiosity, and he stepped on something which f
