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
Elijah was not left behind in the battle to find out what was wrong with Alpha Marcus. When he heard the doors open, he knew it was definitely going to be him, and as a result, he began to panic and pray to the Moon goddess for his safety.He had thought the Alpha had heard about his mate's escape and had stormed into the room to teach him some lessons, but he was proven otherwise when none of that happened. Alpha Marcus stormed into the room and lay on his bed instead, drifting off to sleep almost immediately. Elijah was relaxed to some extent and he saw that as an opportunity to quickly think of how to explain to the Alpha how his mate had managed to escape from the palace, because he was definitely never going to take it easy on him if he was unable to explain himself.Elijah thought of something quickly but it was not really a perfect idea to him. Alpha Marcus was not a kid who would be lied to so easily without him getting to find out later. So he concluded he was going to let h
CAUGHT UPAlpha Marcus gripped Elijah by his neck afterwards and led him out of the manor. The guards were frightened when they saw him approaching them that way and they quickly went down on their knees, with their bowed low before the Alpha."No, you shouldn't do that. Get up because you have found favor with me." Alpha Marcus said and helped them to their feet, rubbing both their heads with his hands while Elijah knelt in their midst."This son of a bitch kneeling here has just narrated to me how he succeeded in taking his mate out of the palace." Marcus stated and looked down at Elijah. "He also made me understand that he also tried escaping but you both caught him and dealt hell with him. Is that right?"The guards exchanged glances with each other and played a smile on their lips. They knew they had indeed found favor with the Alpha because he was never going to be so happy with them if they were the cause of his earlier bad mood.They nodded their heads. "Yes, my Lord. We did
STUCK IN A PLACEShe thanked her wolf for giving her these signs on time and she was gradually beginning to understand what her wolf was trying to tell her about her wolf earlier.Garfield was beginning to act weirdly and that only confirmed what her wolf had been telling her about her wolf. "Elena, why are you suddenly acting this way? This is so unusual of you and you sure know it." Garfield mustered and reached for Elena's hands but she quickly drifted them away from his touch."Don't touch me! Will you answer my questions or not?" She asked, paying deaf ears to his sorry pleas.He stared at her with apologetic eyes and went on his knees, finally getting a grip on her hands. She felt herself become stale all of a sudden as he ran his fingers through her skin.He drew her close to himself and began to plant kisses all over her face. "Tell me you aren't upset with me anymore." He said in a seductive tone and she quickly swallowed up her breath, lost in his dazzling aura.She held on
ME OR NO ONE ELSE!They started planning on their escape, but the only problem they were faced with was how they were easily going to get somewhere else to lay their heads without having to run helter skelter, away from their attackers.Luckily for them, the man had gone into his room and was already fast asleep throughout the course of their escape plans. Elena clinged onto Garfield throughout the escape process, for fear of what the old man asked her earlier, as if he saw someone coming from nowhere to slit her throat and render her useless all through her life.They found another easy route to escape from the building as the old man had already locked the main gates where they had come in earlier.They were definitely not ready to have their lives being threatened that way all the days of their lives, so they had to look for any means possible to leave before the man possibly woke up from his sleep.They finally got out of the building and the rogues suggested that they returned ba
I'M BETTER OFF THIS WAYElena, Garfield and the rogues arrived at the cave in a short while and they resorted to clearing the dirt off the whole cave.They had been gone for a while and as a result, it was only wise they carried out a thorough cleaning on the cave and ensured they weren't going to be living in dirt.They planned to set a campfire afterwards, Lawrence had suggested it earlier and everyone immediately accepted the suggestion and they went out in search of wood to use for the fire.The men went out in search of the woods while Elena remained in the cave with her child and Carl. "What's going on in your mind?" Carl asked, as if she had been studying Elena's expressions for some time.Elena shook her head and smiled. She obviously wasn't expecting such a question from Carl, she never told her anything was going on in her mind right?"I'm fine, why do you ask?" She replied hesitantly and faced Carl who was now heading to the door. She hadn't noticed that someone had been k
Garfield arrived within a short while with the rogues and he was surprised when he saw a man standing by the cave's door."What's going on here?" He asked, also as a means to announce his presence. Marcus quickly adjusted his gaze on him and shot him a terrifying glare. "What's that supposed to mean, young man? Why are you staring at me in that manner?" Marcus ignored his question and hissed as he reached for Elena's hands. But before he could go any further, Garfield, alongside the other men, gripped his neck region and began to unleash their fists on his face.Blow upon blow, they taught him the lesson of his life, and as soon as they finally left him, he staggered to his feet and took off almost immediately.Afterwards, Garfield marched towards Elena with cold eyes, upset that she could allow such a person to get an inch close to the cave, talk more of discussing with her."What was he saying to you?" Garfield asked, his voice etched with anger. "Who the hell is that man and why d
WHEN DESPERATION SETS INNina hated Elena more now. She had trusted her as a close friend and never thought she would still go ahead to date Garfield even after she had warned her and informed her about her intention to be with Garfield instead.She wouldn't allow any form of friendship to stop her from doing that which she was supposed to do in order to have her mate back. As far as she was concerned, Elena was no longer worthy to be tagged her friend, and she will make sure she pays for betraying the trust she had for her.In her quest to achieve her aim against Elena, Nina planned to return back to the witch's coven which she had rejected and refused their membership proposal.She desperately needed to achieve her aim which was to get back her mate, even if it meant taking Elena out of the way. Desperation had sunk deeply into her that she could no longer think straight; all she could ever think of was how to get Garfield away from Elena's arms and have him all to herself.The witc
