Amara's POV I made sure that I wasn't seen a lot of times by Anita. A lot of things occupied her time that she forgot to ask about Sylvia. This gave me the time to meet with the team on how to defeat Anita.Sylvia has been trying to talk to me for so long but I didn't grant her audience. I was about to serve Anita on this day when I heard her scream at some man. From the look of things, it was as if he didn't fulfill his mission. It was there and then I heard a sword slash something, and a thud followed. I turned back quietly with a tray in hand and life intact. My heart beat loud and fast against my chest. I summoned courage and I returned to her room, not to arouse her suspicion." You sent for me ma'am," I asked." Why did you take so long to return here?" she inquired." I heard you were a bit busy ma'am, and I didn't want to interrupt," I replied. "Hmm. Stop that plan against Sylvia," she said, and. I blurted " What?" She stared at me."Stop that plan," she repeated. I paused
AUTHOR'S POV Amara hid all the pieces of evidence she had. Diana had been arriving and leaving frequently, and Anita noticed her indifference whenever marriage was mentioned."Don't you want to get married anymore?" Anita asked her on one of her visits."I want to," Diana answered back."II can't wait for you to be baroness," Anita said, noticing that she wasn't geared up. The light had gone out of her eyes."What is wrong with you?" She asked."Nothing, your highness. The doctor said I have to recover fully before thinking about anything." She said. Anita couldn't say anything about it.Diana has been rumored not to eat anything in the pack house."You haven't been eating. I hope you're alright?" Anita asked, and Diana regarded her coolly. "I have been asked to be careful about poisoning." She replied, and Anita knew she was referring to her."Why don't you come out straight? You spent more than six months here; why is poisoning coming up now?" She asked."You drugged me and expect
AUTHOR'S POV Anita was very angry with all the things that she had been hearing recently. It was almost as if things started crumbling again. She was very furious at the amount of embarrassment Alpha was giving her because of a small loan debt. It was only a matter of time before her business yielded"What do we have here?" Damini asked, and she was very angry. He was trying to intimidate her, which wasn't going to happen."Welcome, Damini." She decided to seek him out."Welcome, Anita." He replied. They regard each other as cool, waiting to see who will make the first move."What do you want from me?" she asked. It certainly couldn't be revenge. He probably wanted more money."What do you think I want? He replied to her."Money, an additional part of my pack?" she replied, and Damini rose to his full height."You attempted to kill me twice and think I need money? You must be delusional." He laughed at her with scorn."I med your head to roll off the head." He replied. That was what
Author PovConan raised an eyebrow at her statement, but didn't question it further. He knew better than to pry too much before she suspects him of burning her source of wealthThe dinner was set up in the dining hall, and everyone sat around the large wooden table even maids shocking him as hell. Conan noticed that there were only a few dishes, but they were all prepared extravagantly. He suspected that there was some kind of poison in the food, but he couldn't be certain. Anita seemed to be enjoying the dinner and everyone's company. She laughed freely and engaged in conversations with her guests. Conan found it strange that she was acting so hospitably towards them. He wondered if it was all just an act because the Anita he knew is a callous human being who cares about herself only abd he couldn't help but pay more concern about her smiles, He concluded that she has something under her sleeves.As the night wore on, Conan couldn't help but let his guard down. He was enjoying himse
Amara's POVThe only way to make sure that things were going according to plan was to make sure that we moved closer to Anita. Since we had not confronted her about her atrocities, she relaxed and felt complacent. Little did she know that there was a storm brewing and she would need more than a waterproof to not get drenched."Get me the women that have not been toeing the line lately." Anita said, and I quickly ran to fetch them.Diana walked in at the same moment. I didn't know the reason for her presence, and I didn't look at her so as not to arouse suspicion from Anita about our friendship.When I returned, I met Diana and Anita having a face-off."Who do you think you are?" She asked Anita. This statement got Anita angry, and she raised a hand to strike Diana on the cheek. Diana dodged the slap, and Anita's eyes widened."How dare you speak to me i
Anita held her breath as she arrived at the bank of the river. She let out a exhale as she collapsed on the sand, panting hard. The adrenaline wore off, and she took a deep breath to calm herself. She was grateful for the swimming lessons that she took. For, she wouldn't know what to do if she didn't possess that skill.Ten minutes later, she heard footsteps approaching. It must be the guards, she guessed. Lo they approached. Two guards came into sight. They recognised her. "Welcome Alpha." one of them said, and assisted her to stand on her feet. " Thank yiu." she replied, really famished and tired. " Let's go to the house." The same man repeated. As the approached the house, she was grateful to see her friend come out. Alpha Derek. He was one of the few Alphas that she had not fallen out with. "Alpha Anita." He greeted in surprise. Derek came out with the intention to see the trespasser the guards found at the shores. Only to find out that it was Anita. "Hello, Alpha Derek.
Anita's POV The naked shock on their faces was delightful to watch."I can see that absence was not missed," I said, looking directly at Conan."Welcome, Baroness." Elder Matthew was the first to recover. The rest of them muttered a greeting."They can't get rid of me just yet," I replied. The last six days have been the most enjoyable days of my life. Every morning, I was served good food, and Derek and I even spent time catching up. It had been almost twenty years since we last spoke physically to each other."We are pleased to have you back," Conan said though I saw the look in his eyes. I am back! There was nothing anyone could do about that.I smiled at them and took charge of the meeting."We should partner with the northern pack because they are very industrious and also have a wide range of visitors."Elder Matthew suggested. I began to notice him. He might be good for my plans."I think that's a great idea," I replied. Conan was quiet throughout the meeting. I noticed his co
AUTHOR'S POV Anita felt like a prisoner.The men had taken the sachet of coke. She was confined to her room. If that wasn't the case, she would have looked for a means of escape. If this leaked out, it would cost her a lot.She paced about on her balcony. Until she heard a knock."I have not seen you for some time." One of the men said She didn't know that she was going to be monitored closely."I was on the balcony." She replied, feeling very depressed that she, of all people, would be given house arrest."Please stay inside." The mother replied politely, but Anita remained embarrassed.She closed the windows and the balcony door.After a few minutes of pacing about, she heard another knock, which interrupted her thoughts again.This time around, it was Conan who came in."What is going on?" She asked; she needed to know what was happening in the pack because staying indoors since morning while Conan was ruling did something to her mental health."People have not started asking yet.
