After Clem’s pronouncement, Derek looked at him warily, remembering the last time the beta had chosen family over the pack by trying to cover for his family when they had tried hurting Emma on he and his sister’s birthday.

Would he make the same choices again? Derek wondered, staring at his beta. He was unsure of what the next choice might be. But he was sure that he wouldn’t take it lightly with the latter should he say something out of place to Emma once they got to her place.

"Okay then." Anthony muttered, before turning aside to glance and nod at Derek.

We should give him one more chance. Anthony mind linked to Derek, knowing that his brother still had misgivings about the latter. After all, he had unseated the father, and had rejected the sister.

Derek agreed with his brother, but he still did nothing. Rather he turned around, toward the exit of the pack, and continued walking down the path, his thoughts consumed with anger.

Remembering the past was upsetting him greatly. Especia

    Julius stood still, his arms crossed at his chest, as he stared at Derek, Anthony and Clem blandly.He would have asked them how his life mate was doing, but had decided against it at the last moment. They were traitors. He didn’t deal with traitors. He can always check on Ava later."What are you guys doing here?" He asked for a start, literally glaring at Derek especially. The stupid Alpha has guts for sure. He thought, remembering the incident of that night."What do you mean by that question? This is my pack, and I can go wherever I want to." Derek replied, shifting uncomfortably on his feet the next second when he saw Anthony from the corner of his left eye, palm his forehead as if in frustration."Still as haughty as ever." Julius retorted with a scoff, ultimately disgusted.It didn’t sit well with Derek.He knew he had messed up, but the vampire shouldn’t be talking to me like that in his pack."I can’t believe you are still concerned about your stupid pride at this point!"

    Derek’s head felt dizzy for a second when he heard the offhanded short statement of Yodah. He staggered for a bit, before reclaiming a stable stance of his body."Derek, are you okay?" Clem asked him, stepping closer and holding him lightly by the arm.But Derek shook Clem’s hand off, not interested in his beta’s sympathy. He just wanted some answers."What do you mean by gone?" He heard Anthony ask Yodah, breathing heavily especially as he heard the slight trembling underneath his brother’s tone."She is no longer at the pack. She left like an hour ago, to the airport, in the company of Freya and Aiden." Yodah replied, now feeling a bit sorry, just a tiny weeny bit, for Derek who was looking as lost as a sheep without its shepherd."Where is she heading to? What’s her destination?" Anthony asked frantically, almost immediately after Yodah’s answer, already feeling the not so good state of his younger brother. The situation wasn’t looking good. He thought."To her family in Florida."

    Julius stared down keenly at Derek and soughed. The lad was really something. He thought as he gave a nod to what Derek had just said."We will go, but so you know you might see us later, sooner than expected, of course that excludes Emma unless something strategic happens." He spoke, ruffling his hair a bit."And why is that eh? Did she ask you to keep tabs on me?" Derek asked, unable to stop the flicker of hope that blossomed within himself.But Julius chuckled, annoying Derek again."You wish, boy!" He mentioned before chuckling again.Derek gritted his teeth, even harder, as he heard Julius’ next statement."I will be teaching at your school by next week…I need to be close to my lifemate. Yodah here, and Freya will be transferring from their schools sometime next month, or this month. But don’t worry, we will not be seen within the confines of your pack." Julius explained to Derek, a small laugh playing around his lips as he remembered Derek’s earlier question. The lad was really

    Derek cast a furtive glance around the sitting room, down to the other entrance that led to the wide kitchen, but he didn't see his Beta. Which only meant that Clen might have gone into the rooms.Quickly, not thinking the ‘why’ of his action, he left Anthony who was still taking pictures of the map-like drawings on the wall, and strolled toward the passageway which led to the two rooms in the house.The first room he walked into was that of Emma’s of course, and just as he thought, there was Clem standing right in the middle of the room, holding something in his hand.“What is that? What are you holding?” Derek asked Clem without preamble, and without wasting any more time, stalked towards Clem, to see properly what the latter had been so engrossed in looking at.He stood before his Beta the next second, his eyebrows furrowing when he saw the small book in Clem’s hands. It looked like a diary.“Didn't you hear me come in or speak?” He questioned, taking the book off Clem’s hands.Cle

    Emma looked at the long white staircase right before her for a while, and then turned back for the second time to take in the final glance of Freya and Aiden before she walked up to the aeroplane.Freya’s eyes were laden with tears and mixed emotions. Emma didn't believe that she would miss the girl that looked so much like her in this way the first time they had met.But she vowed within herself that before they met again, she would have uncovered everything concerning both of them, including the mystery surrounding her and her powers. She didn't know how she was going to do so in a town filled with just ordinary people, but she will through any means necessary. And of course, she still had Prescott.Looking down at the squirrel right in her arms, a short unfeeling smile crawled along her lips. He would be a huge asset to her research.“Are you having second thoughts?” Prescott asked Emma after seeing the lame smile on her lips. He was thinking that perhaps she was rethinking her dec

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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,

    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

    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?

    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

    “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

    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
