They fell into comforting silence as they trudged to their quarters. As usual, they had to report to their supervisor. Melissa. She stood outside Cisca's room.

A muscle ticked in her jaw, and she tapped her foot on the floor, with gritted teeth which hardened her facial planes.

Reagan headed towards her room to avoid confrontation, but Melissa's gaze stopped her. Why she was angry they didn't understand.

" I have been waiting for a very long time."

Cisca shot a confused glance at Reagan who shook her head in silent communication. " How are you doing, Melissa?" Reagan replied in a matching tone.

" Reports have gotten to me that you didn't complete your chores." Melissa stared at them.

" Who said that?" Reagan challenged.

" Does that mean that they are lying ?"

" Yes, we have been working our asses off, and someone comes to feed you this?" Cisca chirped in.

Melissa turned to her as if just realizing that she was there. " You especially, you were rumored to be talking to Martin wh

    The cemetery was livelier than the dining table. It was as if everyone was afraid to breathe, because they let their breaths out their nostrils slowly as if they had been forbidden to breathe too loudly. Alexia paused with her fork mid-air, gazing at Alden intently until she suddenly said "You can not be serious"Alden matched her stare head-on, "I don't consider myself a comedian." "How dare you talk like this" She thundered in incredulity, wondering the manner of effrontery he possessed "don't you have respect for the king?""The late king" Alden mused slowly, dipping his fork into the plate of steak "I am sure he would be happy to have a grandchild"" Can you hear what this lad is saying? Trying to embarrass us in the name of this foolishness?!" Alexia turned sharply to Nicky in support, who minded her business, causing Alexia to feel stupid for her outburst. The only anger she felt was that Cisca would not be able to convince Martin to do her bidding. " I've never seen where a

    " We will have this discussion later." Queen Alexia marched away, since Stiles wanted to be stupid she wouldn't indulge him. What he intended to prove was beyond her, why was he doing what he did? " It's obvious that you know why he was brooding." Martin broke the silence. Stiles nodded casually, " Is there a problem if I do?" After giving him a suspicious look, Martin replied calmly." None at all." Then focused his attention on the said records. The silence became unbearable for Stiles and he spoke." You must be judging me."" For?" " You want me to say it?" He inquired. " If you must," Martin replied nonchalantly. He was less concerned about their business as long as it didn't affect the pack. " How are you taking the situation?" " What situation?" Martin feigned ignorance. " Cisca's situation." Shrugging gently, and settling with a blank stare after, " It's a good addition to the family, don't you think so? When will you be having the coronation ceremony?" Martin deflecte

    " Why the sudden kindness?" Alden's wolf, Xander asked. "I don't know," Alden replied. Alexia watched the communication between Alden and his wolf. His eyes went yellow and she knew he was communicating with his wolf. " I mean no harm." She said appeasing his wolf. " Excuse me," Alden replied in a guttural tone. His wolf overshadows his human counterpart. Alexia felt the sheer power buzz through him and she moved away. He walked into the kitchen, opened the fridge, opened the bottle cap, and drank almost half of the water. He stiffened as he felt Alexia's eyes on him, what part of get out did she not comprehend? Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, he turned, and speared a glance, before heading to the door without a word. When his hand touched the handle, Alexia spoke. "The pack needs your help." He stilled, " What does an outcast have to offer?" As much as Alexia hated to speak, she went on, "That was in the spur of the moment. Maxwell is threatening to take

    " Calm down! Do not give them the pleasure of getting under your skin!" Queen Alexia cautioned through the link. Blood rushed into Stiles' ears immediately after he heard that statement. He wanted to attack them. " They are on my land." He replied." Let them be. Trading blows with him will do no good." She replied. She had other plans in store for them." Goodbye, Alpha," Cecil said thinking that she had stunned him into silence. " Let me go after them!" Stiles complained when the door slammed shut. Alexia shook her head, and waved her hands around the room, " Ignore them. I love the way you handled that. We need to organize the ceremony soon. Amelia is well now, isn't she?" She replied instead. Stiles was still fuming at their action, revenge swirled in his mind, and he sought various ways to retribution.Alexia rolled her eyes, how many people did Stiles think he could fight? In a short while, his name might become The Brawling King. " Focus on the present. One of the qualitie

    "walk with me." Queen Alexia ordered as she took a condescending look at Cisca's room when she opened the door. Cisca followed her blindly and Reagan walked stealthily a hundred feet behind them. Who knew what Alexia was up to?" Where are you heading to?" A guard stopped Reagan at the gate. " Queen Alexia told me to come with her." She lied. The guard stared at her for some seconds before opening the gate. She bundled down the road. That man had caused her to be far behind. Looking sideways, she decided to take left.The moon gave her light with intensity, which was different from her regular peek-a-boo. Crickets also chirped loudly in a rhythmic chorus, as they continued down to the forest area.Alexia had not turned once and Cisca was beginning to panic as she noticed that they were treading a lonely path. " Umm... Queen. I.." She stammered. Alexia stopped when they got to the clearing. Not once did she see a patrol guard walk past. Granted, they could be stealthy, but she s

    " What happened to her?!" Alden barged into the hospital with alacrity. Now, he understood the unexplainable weird feeling that he tried to figure out. " Please calm down." Nurse Cindy placated him and tried to stop him from entering the emergency room. " Where is she?!" He bellowed, gave her a daring stare and Cindy shriveled in fear.He turned to Reagan who stepped forward timidly. " She is being attended to." " What happened to her?" He asked." She fainted. Dr. Bart is taking care of her." Reagan lied. Alden paced in front of the ward. Turbulent thoughts ran through his mind and different horrifying images plagued his mind. He shook his head to get rid of them. The what-if questions refused to budge, and he felt real torment. His hands became clammy as perspiration covered him. His heart raced faster than a horse on steroids. The hands of fear gripped him. The door swung open, and Nurse Martha strode out, stopping a few inches from colliding with Alden. " Prince Alden, Dr. B

    The Next Day, " I came the instant I heard!" Queen Alexia rushed into the hospital with Martin in tow. She came to see how far her plan had been achieved. Information reached her that Reagan told Alden about Romero. Judging from Alden's somber countenance, she knew it was successful. " How is she doing?" Martin inquired. His heart almost left his chest when he heard about the incident. It was not yet time for her to leave. " She is in the ward." Martin moved, " No one is allowed to use her." Alden added, halting Martin's step. He sighed and dipped his hand into his pocket. He was blatantly ignoring Alexia, he didn't trust her a bit." You were with her last night." He challenged. " Yes, till a few minutes past eight." Alexia maintained a poker face. " In the woods." Alden sat up straighter. His head made calculations. " Are you trying to say something?" She challenged. The nurses were ready for another drama." We don't have to cause a scene here," Martin whispered when he not

    "Alpha Maxwell." He greeted, with his jaw stubbornly set, his eyes accusing. It was obvious that he overheard their conversation.Alpha Maxwell halted for a bit. With an unsmiling face, Maxwell ignored him and went on his way. He gauged Alden's reaction to see if he overheard their conversation. Alexia opened the door when she heard Alden's voice. Disapproval shone in her eyes, " Have you come to accuse me again?" She confronted him.His eyes crinkled with mischief, " On the contrary, I think that you would be more inclined to hear what I have to say." He said.She folded her arms, impatience got the best of her, " I don't have time for games. Unlike you, some of us have things to do with our time." She said." Hmm." Alden hummed in agreement. Another dropped in his mind, " What if I help you bargain with Alpha Maxwell? He leaves you alone forever." He knows. Alexia thought. " What do you mean?" Her eyes blazed with anger, " You have refused vehemently to help out, why the sudden c

    "I am extremely delighted to be given this opportunity to be your leader. I promise to serve you the way I should." Alden vowed.Then, he drew Cisca closer to him, " I am also seizing this opportunity to present to you my Queen, the one for me. The owner of my heart." He replied and the crowd erupted in louder cheers. "I accept you as my King and husband," Cisca replied with tears misting in her eyes. " I love you," Alden replied, drew her closer to him, and gazed at her lovingly before kissing her deeply. " You are so beautiful."" You are not bad yourself." Cisca teased." Take it back." He whispered and she smiled.Elder Drew stepped forward and announced. " We present to you the Alpha King and Luna or Moonstone pack!

"Alpha Jared, thanks for coming." Alden greeted the lonely Alpha.He l

    Three weeks later, " Whew! I have missed this place." Cisca muttered when she arrived at the pack house.Alden chuckled as they walked upstairs together with Shawn in his arms. " I have to quickly attend to some letters, I'll be back in some minutes." He told her after placing Shawn in his cot. The calm baby watched his father who poked kisses at him. Cisca looked up, " We'll be fine, I am feeling sleepy." She said."Okay." He replied and returned to his office. A log of files waited for him and he had to attend to each of them one after the other. One was from Alpha Jared, and he stared at the file skeptically. How was he sure that this was truly from him? He heard a knock on the door. " Come in " He replied with a gruff voice. " I'm sorry for barging in." Elder Drew apologized. A maid had told him that Alden said he didn't want disturbance. Alden looked up, " It's fine, you can come in." He said and Elder Drew sat down. " I came the discuss the issue of choosing your members

    " How is she doing?" Alden asked a nurse when she came out of the room. It was getting to an hour and she had not heard a baby's sound. His heart almost left his chest. He hoped nothing happened to her. " Fine, please just relax." She said and walked briskly to god knows where. Alden paced outside the door for a long time. He looked at his watch, it was another thirty minutes, and he barged into the room. " You can't be here." A nurse protested and he shot her a withering glare which made her retreat in surrender. Alden looked at Cisca who was sweating profusely on the bed as she writhed in pain. " Dr. Bart, what is happening?" He asked. " She's pushing." He replied and turned to Cisca, " Push!" Cisca tried all her might to push but nothing was coming out, " I can't." She cried. Exhaustion was written all over her.Alden was at her side at the instant, he held her hand, " You can, baby, you can." He soothed.Cisca began to cry, " I can't. I don't want this baby to die." Alden

    The first thing Alden put in place was the detachment from any financial treaty between his pack and others. This required him to take his time to make strategic plans about how to generate a sustainable source of income." Hello, babe." Cisca knocked on his office door." Come in." He replied.Cisca pushed the door open and walked in with a tray. She sighed at the sight of files scattered about his desk. "Do you ever get rest?" She inquired. Alden chuckled. "I believe I would soon. I just need to put things in place." He said and rose to collect the tray from her."" Are you sure?" She asked. He didn't look like he was going to stop soon He nodded, " Of course I will. I am having conversations with a few Alphas, but we are yet to conclude." He said. " Alright." " Thanks for the cookies. But I told you to rest. We have maids." He scolded her gently." Okay." She replied. It wasn't stressful for her. In fact, she wanted to stretch her leg more. " Hmm, I don't think you will stop.

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas    Boredom

    A week later, Cisca decided to go for a stroll in the garden. Boredom had gotten the best of her. If she spent another minute in that house, she wasn't sure of what could happen.What a sunny day, she thought as she reminisced on the recent incidents. It was very painful because she had lost very important people in her lives. First, it was Reagan, now Martin.A hand suddenly closed over her eyes and she screamed. A light familiar chuckle calmed her nerves. " What the hell?" She asked and turned to see the culprit. Alden stood before her with his hands stuck deep in his pockets. " Hello, love." Cisca burst into tears, and Alden panicked. " What is it?" "These are tears of joy." She sniffled and hugged him and sniffed his scent. She was so happy to see him. How did she not notice his scent? "I'm sorry, I should have returned much earlier. I was tidying up some things." He apologized. Cisca wiped her tears with the tip of her cloth. " It's fine. I'm just happy that you are here."

    The man managed to escape, and Martin carried Amelia to the house. Cisca was waiting at the foot of the stairs and her mouth fell open when she saw an injured Amelia." What happened to her?" she asked as Martin called for other guards at the border. It was almost three a.m. before the pack house was stabilized. Alexia was baffled by what was happening. She locked herself in her room. She saw the intruder that came into the house through the window. Cisca paced around as Dr. Bart worked on Amelia. Her bleeding finally stopped and she slept off. " How did he manage to break into the house with this amount of security?" Alexia queried the next day. " We don't know, your highness. We chased him to the border, but he was able to cross it before we got it." A guard said.Alexia crossed her arms. " We will know the truth in the morning." She said. She could bet that this was targeted at her. This was what she could do." You can all leave. We'll speak about this in the morning." Martin d

    Dr. Bart stood amid the office with all the elders in the room and his notepad in hand. " The autopsy took longer than we anticipated." "What have you discovered?" Martin asked. Dr. Bart looked at each of them and wondered and saw the tension on their faces, " Poison was discovered in his system. It was in his system for five months. It was wolfsbane." He said. Alexia rose, she faced Nicky, "I knew it, you killed my son." She said. Everyone turned towards Nicky, and Nicky rose to her feet. " This is ridiculous." She said, " I will not allow your stupidity to rub off on me." She said.Alexia looked at Nicky, " I want an investigation to go on." She said. "I want to find out who killed my son. When I get to the root cause of this issue, I promise that I will not spare the person." She said." How do you intend to do this?" Martin replied. Alexia smirked, she already had a plan." We will visit a seer. She will tell us who killed him." She responded. Nicky's heart skipped a bit at

    " How are we preparing for his burial?" Elder Drew inquired. Queen Alexia looked up with an ashy face which was puffy from crying too much. " We are doing nothing about it. The elders can around " I want an autopsy to be conducted for him." Queen Alexia ordered and the elders looked at her. " He was murdered." She explained she needed to find his murderer. The elders exchange glances between themselves. " Okay, we will inform the doctor." Elder Drew said. Martin patted her back gently as she sobbed after they left. " Everything will be fine. They'll get to the root of the matter." He assured her. He stared at her with pity-filled eyes. Alexia was unable to eat for days and she began to lose shape. " It's so sad. I know who did this." She said. Martin's hand stopped moving as he turned to look at her. " Who?" Why didn't she say anything? Moreover, didn't she also kill the king?" I suspect it was poison. Someone in this house did it." Alexia replied flippantly. Intrigued by the

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas    Visited

    Between Cisca's frequent visits and cheering Stiles up, Cisca became a bit ill. She didn't play with her health this time as she visited the doctor immediately. Dr. Bart couldn't just stop her from staying with Stiles because he was the king, but he feared that she could catch his sickness. " You are running on low fuel." He said. " I thought that I told you not to stress yourself anymore?" He asked. "Yes, you did." Then he lowered his voice and listened to see if anyone was passing by. " Why are you staying with Stiles? You need rest." He scolded her. If Stiles was that useful, why was she mandated to stay with him? "I know, you said that it wasn't contagious right?" Dr. Bart nodded and watched her, " Yes, that doesn't mean that you should endanger your life because of whatever. I'm sure you are doing this out of pity which is good but very dangerous to your health. I don't want you to lose this baby." He said. "Alden will have my head if anything happens to you." He added.
