Alpha Miles POV“You asked to see me in private.” I was approaching the altar where Priestess Alora stayed on her knees – ringing the star bell in prayers.“I’ve never seen a revelation so vivid.” Priestess Alora hinted.“What do you mean?”“Alpha Miles, kindly go down on your knees.”I obeyed.“Dip your hands in the salty sacred water beside you.”I obeyed.“Let your heart remain calm and meditate on the fire that can never be put out. The news I’m about to relay to you may come as a shock.”My heart began to beat faster. “Is anyone going to die?”“Far from it. Here is what I received.” By now, Priestess Alora got up and towered over me.I readied my heart to receive her revelation.“I do not know how to tell you this. But I will say it anyway. Selene doesn’t want her children bathed in blood. She asks that you spare yourself warship and retire from the throne.”I got up from my knees in reflex. “I’ve done so much to get here. Where is this coming from? Don’t I make a good ruler?”“T
Alpha Miles POVHow I planned to frame him as easy-peasy.He did present us with some liquorice teas as wedding gifts. My Beta had brought him to me in the interrogation room.On the wall hung different types of daggers and pistols with screws.It was a scary place to be.But Alpha Dax didn’t seem the least scared.“Why am I here? Do you realise what Alpha Jerry could do to you if this gets out? Forget the fact that you are his son-in-law…”I didn’t allow him to finish as I landed a rough slap on his cheeks.“Guards!”I called their attention and he was immediately strapped to a seat just above a barrel of hot oil. He wrestled against the hefty men that held him bound but it was to no avail.His eyes shot daggers at me. “You have no respect for your elders!”“And you have no respect for human life. I will teach you what it means to lose one.”“What does that mean?” His gaze burrowed in curiosity.“Before I drop you in boiling water, I just need you to tell me the truth.” I took my se
Alpha Miles POVIt was my wedding day with Kenzie.I was all shades of happy.Coupled with the fact that I got Brian’s father exactly where I wanted him.Everything was panning out according to the script.And just like that, I got Brian’s father in court for trying to harm my baby and wife.With Kenzie’s help, she delivered the letter written in Brian’s father’s blood. And the rest took care of itself from there.The law guiding the New Crystal pack was not too friendly.Though I hate to do this to Brian, the law demanded he be sentenced to life imprisonment.Brian was back home in no time. Only that he had not shown up at my doorstep. Ditto for me. I needed to give him space coupled with embarrassing jail time I offered his dad.I don’t care if at this point, he was angry with me.I did it for his good.That manipulative father of his was going to keep pushing him around till he couldn’t recognise himself anymore.I knew he would come to understand my intent soon enough.As for Ambr
Alpha Miles POV“It’s your wedding day else I’d have punched you in the face.” Came Brian’s curt response. His face moulded into a mean shape.“Bro, I did this for you. For me. He tried to harm Zara.”“Life imprisonment was the best you could do?” He almost shouted at me.“Your father left him no choice. According to the law – the wage of poisoning an infant is death. But your cousin was merciful to grant him a life sentence.” Kenzie explained.I could feel Brian’s pain. He didn’t know where to direct his anger. The anger he had towards his father.Since his father was locked up, he blamed himself partly. And the rest of the blame was directed at me.“Do you think I was too stubborn? Maybe I could have at least participated in the Alpha competition for my father’s sake. And he wouldn’t have tried to kill your baby.”His voice was cracking up like he was about to cry.“Don’t do that Brian. You’ve done enough for that old man you call your father. Ever since you were born, you did every
Alpha Miles POV Zara’s sudden unwarranted death was causing a bit of a commotion. I wasn’t ready to relay the news to her father just yet. Rather I racked my brain on who the culprit could be. “Was that urushiol for real?” Everyone seemed to believe it except me because I witnessed her sudden death. In confirmation, I asked the doctor one more time even though he had made the pronouncement that she was dead from such medicine. “Never been so sure.” “Who could it be?” I thought to myself. I needed someone to help me out on this case. All I could think of was the man whose father I had imprisoned for life. No other than my cousin Brian. He used to work as an informant in the Buyong Agency before his father forced him to leave. I’ve never needed to use his services. But I witnessed firsthand how good he was. Perhaps his strategies were made for such a time as this. I dismissed the doctor and hesitated to send for Brian. The reason was clear. He was still angry with me about his
Alpha Miles POV“You dare to imprison people like Brian’s father. So why can’t I imprison someone with death? My reason is justifiable.” Kenzie showed no remorse concerning what she did.The silk gift was laced with poison. Urushiol with lilac fragrance gives a slow unnoticeable death.I clapped her in awe. “You planned this out so well. How clever?! So, no what has changed?! How could you take a life like Zara’s? She was nice to you!” My voice was laced with dismay. “You are not the Kenzie I know.”“That’s right. Everything changed when you decided to consider marrying me as a concubine.”“Is this your way of supporting your fated mate? Are you trying to get in my way of having an heir?”“We can adopt, Miles!”“We know better than that. The pack doesn’t crown an adopted heir. Such a son will only be good for family keep.”“We can fight the odds! Even Selene is changing the world by pronouncing an Alpha female ruler.”“That’s different, Kenzie.”“That’s the least price I can pay for c
