All warfare is based on deception
When able to attack, she must seem unable,
When using our forces, she must seem inactive
She must pretend to be weak
So that Devilio may grow arrogant.
She must attack where he is unprepared,
Appear where she is not expected
Finally, these military devices leading
To Victory
Must not be divulged beforehand
Coined from Sun Tzu’s Art of War

PROLOGUEIt is a cold, dark night. The darkness is so thick, that it can be cut with a knife. It is however not difficult for her to see, as her vision is excellent. The harsh, chilly air of the forest slaps against her, but she keeps walking. She is deaf to the chatter of the nocturnal animals, as she refuses to take her eyes off the figures walking briskly ahead of her.“Mother!” she cries, but there is no response.“Papa!” she cries again, but there is still no response.Magically, the moon appears in the sky, bathing her with its light. The figures turn, and she sees their faces. Her parents. She was

She is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen. Visibly tall, about 5ft 9 inches, long, shapely legs, skin as brown as chocolate. Her tattered dress does very little to hide her shapely curves. His gaze travels to her face, and rests on the biggest and brownest eyes he has ever encountered. He registers the look of horror on her face, and her paralysis, caused by fear. He immediately remembers that he is still in his wolf form. He transforms quickly and advances towards her. She whimpers, and crawls backward, with tears in her bloodshot eyes. He takes a
I look at you- and I want to kiss you More than anything I just want a kiss A kiss to tell me that you trust your lips against mine. A kiss to prove to me that I can still see the world with my eyes closed. A kiss to remind me that actions truly do speak louder than words. I look at you- and I just want to kiss you -Affectionate Poems. Milos waits patiently at the base of the S-shaped stairwell. He has promised to show Wanda around the territory today, as she has been in her room for the past four days, coming out only when it is time for food. At a point, she asked that her meals be brought to her room, but Alpha Stocle

She slowly opens her eyes and registers that Milos is awake, and is staring at her. She pouts and Milos erupts in a burst of deep, husky laughter.“Why are you laughing?” she asks, grimacing.
I can’t take the mental strainMy thoughts a rickety trainWhy do we have expectations?Reality has its own limitationsIt doesn’t have to be this wayI am meant to always be gayBut I know without a doubtThat I’ll figure this out. -PenaciousShewaWanda wakes up to a gentle touch on her leg. The touch is soft, yet insistent. She opens her eyes slowly to see a blurry but definitely feminine figure sitting at the foot of the bed. She rubs her eyes gently with her right hand and sees Anastasia, the mate of the Beta of the Conscientious Pack. She is a petite woman with dark, flowing hair, reaching her waist. She has soft blue eyes, and her facial expre

He looks around and quickly apprehends that he is still at the creek, and Wanda is with him, fast asleep. He looks at her face, so peaceful and beautiful. How could he have been so lucky to land himself such an enthralling beauty as his mate? Well, he has the moon goddess to thank for that. He observes that although she is wearing a fur coat, Wanda is from all indications chilly; she is human after all. He tenderly lifts her in his strong arms

If there is anything I do not like, It is violence I believe in being the Bigger person. However, on this one, I agree with Kayola and Alexis Kane must be taught A very deadly lesson! - PenaciousShewa Kayola wakes up the next morning and finds herself on the wet floor of the forest; she has transformed out of her wolf form but she is still very tired. She replays last night’s incident in her head and starts to cry again. After a few minutes, she gets up from the floor and tries her best to clean her dress. She goes back into the Territory and is told that Devilio is at training. Kayola goes into the Mansion and freshens up, feeling much better after. She goes to see Alexis at the hospital, as she will be discharged today. She really hope
She struggles within herselfTrying so hard to make a choiceBut when he takes her like A wounded wolfShe of course likes it.She stops struggling andMakes her decisionLittle does she know thatHer joy is about to Be cut off by her archenemy.PenaciousShewaThanks to Kayola’s super hearing, she loosens herself from Keevan’s embrace and jumps to her feet. She wraps her robe around her body and pats her hair so it would look decent. Keevan gets to his knees and she starts to yell.“Tell me what you came for! Tell me or I’ll kill you!” she screams at the top of her voice.“I will never speak!” Keevan yells in return and Kayola punches her and she holds
Hello dear readers and subscribers, thank you all for your comments and support. I have decided to make this chapter free as a New Year’s gift to you all. Happy 2022! Kayola sneaks cookies And a bottle of milk Into her lover’s cell He ravenously eats them But that’s not all He eats tonight! It is almost noon and Kayola is just waking up. She is happy, excited, and nervous all at the same time. Since Keevan came, she has been secretly sending sumptuous meals to him to keep him healthy, as Devilio ordered that the prisoners be fed just once a day. As she sits in her bed, she remembers clearly that chocolate cookies are Keevan’s favorite, and she is going to get him some today. Of course, she would never bake them in the house, as Devilio could find out where she takes them. Thus, she decides to go to the market a
Alexis is as good as dead And Kayola’s emotions Are a rollercoaster, and She badly needs to talk She finds a confidante In the person of Kane Little does she know That trusting him will Cost her dearly. PenaciousShewa “Kane! What the hell is going on?” Kayola screams as she sees on the monitor that Alexis has flat-lined. “Luna, I’m going to need you to step outside,” one of the nurses says to her, trying to shield her from seeing what is going on. “No! I am not going anywhere! That’s my best friend on that bed! I am going nowhere!” Kayola says, giving the nurse a death glare. The nurse, knowing what is good for her, leaves Kayola alone. Kayola st
What happens when the one Whom she thinks is dead Appears to her and not As a spirit but in the flesh? PenaciousShewa Kayola is woken up by a gentle nudge from Devilio. She opens her eyes slowly and frowns at him; she honestly needs more sleep. “Wake up, sleeping beauty,” he says and kisses her full on the lips. “We have a lot to do today immediately after breakfast,” he announces. “Yeah. We need to interrogate the spies and after that, I need to see Alexis; I really hope she makes it,” Kayola says with a forlorn look on her face. “I hope so too. Anyways, you need to freshen up; I’ll be waiting for you in the dining room,” Devilio says and leaves the room almost immediately. Kayola dresses up and pops her pills quickly before going down the stairs to have breakfast
They say that the oldReplaces the newThis can’t be more trueFor Kayola who is toldThat Alexis may be goneForever. PenaciousShewaThe crowd disperses and soon, Kayola is left alone with Devilio. She smiles as she remembers the look of relief and gratitude on the faces of the women she just freed from the claws of death. At that moment, when she looked into their eyes, she realized that this is what she lives for, and she will do everything to ensure that all suffering ends in the Rogue Territory. Her thoughts are interrupted by Devilio.“Kayola,” he calls out to her and she turns to fac
She goes about doing all that she canTo help others,Despite the fact that she is in painKayola is one hell of a leader! PenaciousShewaKayola turns quickly to see who is spying on her but she sees no one. She turns again but sees nobody. She knows that her gut is never wrong and so, she makes a mental note to be more cautious- she cannot shake away the feeling that someone really hates her.She prepares for camping and as she did yesterday, she sleeps in Devilio’s tent. He tries to make love to her but she pushes him aside. How can he be thinking about sex when the whole Territory could be in danger? By the way, she forgot to ask Warith if he knew about the wolves that were seen trying to infiltrate the Territory. Well, she is sure that if he did,
