THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION SCALLYWAGS
Seeing the aeroplane run across the track and leap to the skies, Freya bit her lips such that it hurt, but grateful for Aiden’s warmth around her.“Why won’t she listen to me? Why hadn’t she listened to me?” She asked rhetorically, eyes still on the flying aeroplane. She could have joined the flight if she wanted to, since she wasn’t a human, but she respected Emma’s decisions no matter how much it pained her to do so. She still couldn’t grasp why she felt this strongly about someone she had just met yesterday.“You both are probably twins.” Aiden replied, tightening his hold on Freya’s arms like she would disappear the next minute.Freya shifted and shrugged off his arms around her, piquing her eyebrows at him. “Are you trying to grip to death?” She asked, unable to stop the teasing smile that slid across her lips.“How could I?” Aiden jived back, smiling down at her before dropping a kiss on her forehead, not minding the gawking looks they were receiving from the passersby at the ai
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION SCALLYWAGS II
A glare from Kane had Freya and Yodah shutting up their mouths."What are you two laughing about? Don’t you ever think that I am letting you off the hook like Blenda had! You both had lied to me, and then sneaked down here to do whatever it is you people were down here for..." Kane started, still glaring at the two who bowed their heads in shame at being shouted at."Kane, take it easy on them. Remember, they are still fledglings." Dobah intercepted, wanting to cover the offending duo from the anger of his twin brother."My taking it easy on them had been the reason why they had thought that they could fool me easily." Kane pointed out, seething in anger, especially as he took note of Aiden’s now protective stance behind Freya. What the hell was the scallywag doing?"Hey…scallywag…" He called to Aiden who quickly rebuffed him, getting rid of the fear that assuaged him at the thought of standing trial in front of the infamous twins he had always dreamed to become like."I am no scallyw
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION EXPLANATIONS
Aiden looked at the finely sculptured ring on Kane’s finger and nodded."Yes, that mineral..." He replied slowly."Wow, that is good news. The few people of our kind who remain would at least have access to the beauty of the sunlight." Kane cited, nodding his head, agreeing to something for the first time since he had joined the group. "So, have you found the cave?" He asked Aiden, scowling the next minute when Aiden remained mute and silent."I knew it. You sca...""Uncle Kane, stop it!" Freya shouted at Kane, putting to abrupt whatever Kane had wanted to say.There was a minute silence after Freya’s shout. It was obvious that it had taken everyone at unawares. None of them had seen it coming. After all, this was her first time speaking in such a tone to either of the older men.Kane opened his mouth to say something, but shut it the next moment. Freya was one of his favourite people, and he knew that she took him as the father she wasn’t sure she had. He also knew that at the moment
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION EXPLANATIONS II
“...and that is our own story, and part of the reasons why we are here, apart from searching out Yodah and Freya.” Kane said, rounding up his own side of the story, two hours after Dobah had asked the four offenders to spill out what was actually happening.They had all shared their own side of the story, and the parts they had played in them, and so, right now, Dobah and his twin, with his lifemate, now had ideas of what might be going on or transpiring among the supernaturals.Something evil and mightier than each one of them was coming, but together, they might be able to fight it off. Blenda thought, even as she wondered where the girl, Emma, was. She wished that they had arrived minutes earlier so that she could take a look at the girl who seemed to hold the fate of worlds in her hands despite not knowing of what is or the powers she possesses.“So, the girl, Lucille...apart from her wolf nature, did you see her human version by any chance?” Aiden asked Kane, but the latter shoo
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION PACK MEETING
Derek let his eyes roam authoritatively over the members of his pack in the pack meeting that has been going for an hour and thirty minutes, as he delivered his last statement with all precision and power, the Alpha’s tone backing up each of his words.“...we all should be on safeguard. Report suspicious activities to the warriors that would be stationed at each junction. And any word on the whereabouts of the witch called Esther would be highly appreciated. Also, there would be a curfew by eight pm. So everyone, endeavour to be in your homes before that time, for this season is quite perilous. Stay alert. Stay safe. Goodnight you all.” He stated, his face, a blank mask, even when echoes of ‘goodnight Alpha Derek’ permeated the atmosphere of the meeting hall.“That was a nice one. Nice job for a first try.” Shane said, patting Derek at intervals on his right shoulder.“Nice job, old friend.” He repeated again, the pride very visible in his voice.A smile slithered across Derek’s lips
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION FEELINGS
Derek sat forlornly on his bed, not taking off his patchy sweaty cloths or boots, his head bowed and held in his hands, his mind besotted with thoughts swirling around the departure of Emma and the likely betrayal of Leo, his eyes clouded with a variety of emotions.Derek was tired.Breathing in deeply, he raised up his head, letting his eyes wander across his slightly dark room. His eyes found a small book on the small table just close to the door. Emma's diary! He thought, standing up from the bed and trudging in the direction of the table.He picked up the book and let out a sigh, feeling overwhelmed with thick sadness. He gave up on his standing posture, and slide down the wall to the floor, the diary resting on his hands, having switched on the light in his room, before succumbing to the calls of the floor which had beckoned on him.His hands caressed the little book, stopping in its movements, when the thoughts of Leo's betrayal crossed his mind again.Leo had betrayed them. Ev
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION FEELINGS II
Going through Emma’s diary brought tears again to Derek’s eyes. She had managed to capture their moments together in such a way that had made his member hard and his composure weaken with sadness and longing.He had read of her doubts when she had found out that he was a werewolf, doubts which had centred on him discarding her when he found his mate. There were also doubts about who she really was, especially when she had been taken to the kingdom of the witches.He had read of her thoughts on the prophecy which she thought was a myth, not a true story. He also read her thoughts on finding her old boyfriend, Daniel, who turns out to be a grandson to the white witch, and Casper, her old friend, who worked for the black witch before she had killed him.Derek had literally felt her pain when he read her thoughts on killing Casper whom she had taken as a brother she had never had. She captured and wrote her feelings like long poems which had no option but to stick to his already broken he
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION A SPELL
“Who is that?!” Lucille asked, her voice rising more than usual, as she beheld the man who had just, and was still drinking blood from the neck of a weak man. Her mind already gave her the answer but she was still struggling with disbelief. Never had she thought that she would behold a vampire on her first day here. Shouldn’t this be a werewolf territory? What was going on? And that man...he looked like the man in her dreams. Could he be the one? She wondered, unable to take her eyes off his black ones which were also stuck on her. “A vampire! A creature of the undead! Get in now! We have to shut the windows, and I need to create a protective spell. He has already seen us, and I don’t think he would be letting us go for that.” Sheila whisper- yelled, pulling Lucille into the confines of the room, and shutting the window forcefully and quickly. She had been unpacking their clothes, not much though, since they were only spending the night, when she had noticed that Lucille had been st

THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION ANNABEL’S TRIAL
Emma’s eyes were as active as anything active as she watched the elders slowly walk into the hall reserved for judging cases, like Annabel’s. As she watched them, her feet kept dancing on the floor in a funny unsteady motion; she was unsteady. One, one. Then two, two. Then one two. Once, Amelia had looked at her, with a piqued eyebrow. ‘What is that?’ Her eyes seemed to ask, but Emma had given no answer. What is it? It should be what are they?! When they were hurrying over to the hall, after convincing the guards that they would be around for the trial too, her sister had whispered that the cabin, her parent’s cabin, had been burnt by the master, Slediv. It had brought Emma up short, making her stagger on her feet for two reasons. That Slediv had really traced them, even without her then, and that the cabin was burnt; the loss it meant for her parents. Would they regret helping her then? Prescott didn’t think so. But Emma was still worried about it, just like her mind had tried
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION BAD BLOOD
One week later:Emma had run to the clinic, immediately Adah had burst into her apartment with the news that Annabel and Amelia were awake. Over the couple of days in class, they had bonded over gossip, and training, seeing as the latter was the only one that had been sincerely interested in her. Emma had run with Prescott in her hands, and Adah right behind her. And when she arrived at the room she had frequented daily with prayers, and saw her sister and her friend chatting tiredly, she let out a scream of happiness and hurried over to them. “Amelia! Annabel!” She called gaily, garnering the attention of the two females sitting cross-legged on the same bed. Before they could let out a shout or smile of their own, Emma’s hands were already around them. “Oh my goodness, I am so happy for both of you…” she paused. “but give me a heartache again, and I will skin you both alive..” Annabel and Amelia divulged bouts of laughter, with the nurses. Prescott and Adah weren’t left behind,
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION CLAIRE AND FAMILY IV
Caden sighed in relief at his mate’s words, wanting to believe at all costs that the years he had spent with her, that the love they had shared, hadn’t been in vain. He didn’t know what he would have done otherwise. Cry, brood? Neither was acceptable in these times. And so, he wasn’t moved when his son piqued an eyebrow at his mate’s words, or when his daughter’s lips turned up—in disgust or curiosity, he wasn’t sure. But he didn’t care. He just hung on to the thread that his mate was spinning with. “I didn’t cheat on my mate, I’m sure he would have found out if I had done so, considering the mate bond and all that…” There was a pause, where relief sunk its foothold the more in Caden and his children. “So, if that’s what you are thinking, Caden… if that’s what you all are thinking, cut it out. I was surprised too when Claire had met me with the news at first, and I didn’t tell you, Caden, because I wasn’t sure how to explain the phenomena to you. I knew you held the lineage of you
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION CLAIRE AND FAMILY III
Chyra didn’t know what Clem was talking about—the end of the world, and all that—but she knew that she was to blame for Claire rejecting her mate considering what she had soaked into her daughter’s mind about the alpha’s family, about how the Luna seat was her birthright. She also knew that she shouldn’t be working with Arnold. But she was too proud to concede to that, to concede to anyone, and so she shrugged her shoulders to Clem’s question. In the next second, she saw why that had been a wrong play on her part. When she saw Clem fume in anger, when she saw Claire glare at her stinkingly, when she saw her mate watch her like she was foolish, she knew that she had made a mistake. It would have been best if she had kept quiet, than giving off that nonchalant attitude. But her pride held her back from apologizing. Why should she apologize for being a mother caring to give her daughter the best? “Mother, are you so daft that…” Clem was saying when his father shouted him down. Caden
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION CLAIRE AND FAMILY II
At this point, Clem didn’t know what to think about his sister, Claire. He had thought that their parents had been her motivator to reject Curtis, to follow Curtis up and down, to join the meetings that prince Nathan held with the others, but from the thick astounded silence that dwelled in the room, it could be safe to say that his sister had been acting on her own, without any external influence. He didn’t know what to think of that. He looked at his mother; she looked more shocked out of her shoes and mind than his father, quite expected since the mother and daughter duo were quite close, since his sister had no mind of hers, except put into place by his mother. As much as he was not happy with his twin, he was happy that for once his mother had no part to play in her recent escapades. “What do you mean…Claire?” Caden asked, pushing himself ahead, his elbow resting on his knees. “What do you mean when you say that Curtis is your mate? When did that happen? When did you find out?
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION CLAIRE AND FAMILY
What Claire saw first when she stepped into her father’s room was her parents sitting in the living room, with Clem, their backs hunched, the air filled with pregnant silence, waiting. They were waiting for her. She knew it from the moment she had dropped a note in Clem’s mind that she was on her way home. That he hadn’t bothered with a response, should have been enough to let her know that her twin was still angry with her. But she had held out hope, until she had reached the borders of the pack and he hadn’t been waiting for her. This was very different from the times they had quarrels. She knew, however, that this quarrel was different. She had denied her mate, because of the throne; had gone ahead to push Emma away from the pack; and when Derek still hadn’t chosen her, she had returned to Curtis because he was an Alpha. Would she have returned to him if he wasn’t that? She didn’t know. That was the truth. She didn’t know. She might have gone back to Curtis, even if he wasn’t a
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION ANOTHER MATE FOR CURTIS
At Wind Winders Pack.“Dad, what is this? What was Zoe doing in my room so early in the morning?” Curtis questioned, a second after he rushed into the dining room where his parents were having breakfast. He had slept in obviously, but he didn’t care. Yesterday’s training had been rigorous after all. He darted his eyes between his mother and father; his mother’s widened eyes told him that she had no idea what he was talking about; quite expected since this turn of event hadn’t been part of their plans. Hence, he trained his eyes on his father; the old man just continued eating his breakfast like he hadn’t spoken. Curtis thought of repeating himself, but thought better of it. He walked up to his father, and took away his plate of food; an act that he wouldn’t have been able to try before; an act that might have spelt his death; but considering his father’s few options of allies, he knew that he had a chance to live. And so, when his father glared at him heatedly, he didn’t quake in hi
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION PRESCOTT IS AWAKE
“Hey…how are you feeling?” Emma whispered, touching Prescott’s head softly, as she watched him open his eyes for the second time. The first time, she had screamed and had called for the nurse in charge of his treatment, not minding that Adah was with her. Nothing could have dampened her joy. She had just checked on Annabel and Amelia, who although their vitals were stable, was still asleep, yet out of coma. According to the chief nurse, a week was enough for them to wake up now. Then she had checked on Prescott, and only touching him with fondness had elicited the response of his eyes opening. Emma had been overjoyed. “Prescott, can you hear me?” She asked softly, dragging a seat to herself, whilst Adah watched on, not understanding the communication method of the squirrel and Emma. Like the people in the community, she had never seen a talking animal, or rather an animal that communicates as Emma had painted Prescott to be. Her friend who was in the upper echelons of the community
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION STARTING CLASSES III
No professor spoke to her, and Emma couldn’t help but wonder why. Had Prince Shiloh ask them to avoid her? Or had professor Brooks’ defeat scared them away from her? Well, if that was the matter, then she believed it was for the greater good. She had no interest in making affiliations after all, so long as they taught her what she wanted to know, and treated her fairly. “So, do you think you can cope?” She heard Adah ask, and turned aside to see her new seat mate. The mischievous glint in the latter’s eyes made her smile, howbeit small. “I believe I can.” She answered, before getting on her feet. She took her bag which Gira had provided that morning and slung the straps across her shoulder. It was time to go home, or rather check on her friends. Classes were done for the day. “Where are you going?” Adah asked her, getting to her feet. As they walked toward the door, a couple of the students swiftly moved, and stood before the door, causing Emma to furrow her eyebrows. But she chose
