THE EFFECT OF THE WITCH'S POTION: MAYA'S MATE
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Derek observed again, that for the second time under the space of thirty minutes, his cousin's eyes haf widened, more like bulged out. The first time had been when Leo had stepped into the Hall, interrupting the lame excuse he had conjured up to give his cousin who had seemed restless and impatient all of a sudden. The others hadn't noticed, but he had; perhaps because he was directly in front of her, or maybe because he had known her since birth.
Now staring at her and her bulging eyes, he wondered what she was suprised or shocked about. Then with a startling speed, he realized that these reactions he was observing on his cousin, including the nose tapping which she did whenever she was nervous, had all started since Leo came. He dabated in his thoughts, whether the duo had known each other, sometime in the past, considering the fact that his best pack warrior was an ex rogue.

Maya closed her tightly, as she heard Derek's proclamation. She didn't know whether she should be angry that he had said it out in the open without her consent, or happy that he had known her well enough, even to the extent, of telling that his best pack warrior was her mate. It showed her that he still hadn't really forgotten about their closeness. It also gave her a hope that they could reconcile, maybe later, if her father didn't require anything selfish from her."Derek, what did you just say?" She heard her mate ask her cousin, and sighed. This was getting harder by the minute."You both are mates." Derek replied Leo, folding his arms."How come you don't know?" He queried his friend. "Or are you ignoring the mate bond because of me?" He asked further, voicing his wolf's

Melvina's nostrils flared in anger as she heard Maya's statement. She tried to rein in her agitation, as she contemplated on how wicked her mate's brother could be; even stretching the threads of his wickedness to his own daughter."Mom.." She heard her son call, and sighed. She knew that he had already caught in, on her emotions; and so there was no need to hide the truth or the true effects of what the girl's father had done."Aunt..what is it? You are not saying anything." Maya stated apprehensively. She could already tell that something was wrong; the potion was wrong, just like her wolf, Sia, had said.As she mulled over on the issue, she remembered her mother's reaction when she had heard that her father gave her the Panjyo potion. Her mother's reaction had just been l

Maya swallowed her spittle forcefully as she beheld the furious look on Derek's face. He was very angry at her, and she didn't like it one bit. It wasn't helping her cause, but then, she could also understand why he was so damn angry, with his nostrils flaring as he tried to stop himself from strangling her. He was annoyed at having being spied on; well nobody fancied being spied on.Taking her eyes off her cousin who was boiling in rage at her misconduct and selfish act, she casted a long glance on Melvina, her aunt. The older woman was staring into space, her face devoid of any emotions.Maya knew she was deep in thoughts, and she wondered whether she would be forgiven for this grave act. Well, she knew she wouldn't be forgiving her father very soon. He had crossed the limits, by almost depriving her of her mate; and for that alone, she spited him, not caring to please him again."You told him right?!!" Derek's loud question inter
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION "WE ARE NOT USING HER..": A WISE LUNA
The conventional darkening of the sky at that time and his inability to really get the full pictorial view of his mother which stood less than five feet in front of him, enlightened Derek that the time was around 7:30pm already; since the moon wasn't really out.He was hungry, but he found it a wrong time to broach the topic. There were more important matters lying around; like for example, the drama that will ensue at the pack house in some minutes time if his uncle was still around. He already knew that his cousin would throw a fit if she met her father at the moment, since her anger was still undiluted, still hot like a can of concentrated acid and could burn anything or anyone that gets in its way.But for that, he couldn't blame her; he actually pitied her, even though she had reported to her father that his mate was a human.
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION SIDELINING THE ALPHA: A WISE LUNA II
Derek's eyes widened as his mother informed him that she had just been mind linked by his father. Various thoughts ran across his mind at the speed of light, the main thought centered on if his cousin had finally done it. He hoped not. He hoped that the quietness he still felt around the pack was genuine, and not as a result of an Alpha's mind link to his pack members to hush up. At this type of moment, he ernestly wished his little sister had grown up. If she had, she would have been able to give him a run down of what could be happening in the main pack house at the moment. But no, little Eva was still five, and couldn't communicate through the pack link yet. She had to be at least 15; although he already could be communicated to, through the pack link when he was 9years. He had been bristled in shock, when he had h
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION SIDELINING THE ALPHA II
The tension in the room was so thick that a knife could slice through it, as everyone was left to his or her thoughts. By the side of the room, was Melvina; and she felt a little bad that she had to lie to her mate, but then finally concluded that it was necessary; that it was better this way, knowing that she would still tell him of everything later.On another side was Derek. And as he laid a strong stare on his cousin, he wondered why she would forge that kind of lie.'Was there no other lie, other than a one that would bring enemity between her and his father?' He thought. Although he was happy that at least his father's attention had been diverted from the truth, he was still a little bit sad of the bad relationship that will ensue between his father and his cousin. He didn't like that part at all, and he didn't know why.
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION MEETING HER LITTLE COUSIN FOR THE FIRST TIME
Melvina sighed tiredly as she closed the door to the Pack's conference room. She looked ahead to see her son and Maya standing by the wall. She knew they were waiting for her. So she increased her pace, as she walked up to them."Let's talk in the kitchen." She said, when she got to them."We can talk, as I prepare dinner. It's already late." She added, as she walked ahead of them, towards the direction of the kitchen, not waiting for their reply or opinion. As she neared the kitchen, she hoped that her little daughter, Eva, would be intelligent enough to locate the pastries she had kept for her in the bowl close to the sink, to eat if she got hungry.When she got to the kitchen, she smiled as she noticed that that the bowl was absent. Her daughter was one of a kind. She may or may
THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION I MISS YOU, BABY
Eva was extremely happy when she heard her cousin's declaration. She was also happy that she had a big sister to play with and talk things over with.Her mother was sometimes, busy with helping her father with pack duties. And Derek was also busy with his friends. It was worse now that he started college. She only saw him in the evenings, and she wasn't ssatisfied with that.She wondered how long her cousin would be staying; she hoped it was for a very long time."How long are you staying?" She queried her beautiful cousin who still held her hand tightly, which she liked."I don't know yet. But I'm not leaving anytime soon." Maya replied, smiling down at her baby cousin. She thought the girl was more beautiful than her big brother.

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
