SYLVIA I slowly opened my eyes, gently as the sunlight pierced through my brain. My head banged so hard and my mouth felt dry. What happened last night?I tried to remember, but my memories were pretty blocked. I recalled coming into the Alpha's room to drop off some files... and then nothing more could be recalled aside the little discussion we shared.I turned over towards the Alpha, who laid beside me, fast asleep. His chest rose and fell with each peaceful breath as he snored deeply. My gaze drifted down beneath the blanket and I gasped." Shit..." I was naked I realized as the feel of panic bursted in. What the hell did we do last night?"Alpha?" I whispered.He didn't stir.I stared beneath the covers, as my face burned and shock etched all over me, sending shivers down my spine. The Alpha was naked too.Oh no... This can't be. My thoughts clashed.I silently picked up my dress, which was dropped on the floor as well my undies. I swiftly got dressed, as my hands moved with p
ALPHA As I laid in bed, staring at the ceiling as the events of last night replayed in my mind like a movie. Sylvia's face, her laughter, how her eyes gazed at me and sparkled... I couldn't shake off the feeling that something significant had shifted between us."Damn, did I really do that?" I thought to myself, rubbing my chest. I had always been cautious around Sylvia, careful not to overstep any boundaries. But last night, something had taken over me. Maybe it was the whiskey, or maybe it was the way she smiled at me, but I had let my guard down. "Everything seems Ike my imagination or was it real? Doubts clashed my mind.I recalled the way I had grabbed her waist, pulling her close to me as she stared like a baby. The way she hadn't pulled away, instead leaned unto me, with her body as her indescribable scent erupt the atmosphere, I couldn't get over the way we both kissed. Oh, that kiss, It had been like the entire world had come to a standstill and everything was stock. My
SYLVIA I sat on my bed, surrounded by the regular comforts of my room. Simon had knocked on the door a few minutes ago, and welcomed him in, wondering what was on his mind. He paced back and forth in front of me, his eyes scanning my face as if searched for something. Of course his looking for something but what would that be?"Where were you the other night?" he asked, his voice low and concerned."Just needed some quiet time, so I went into the woods for a bit of peace." I responded trying to appear nonchalant, I could feel my heart beat rising."Alone?"Simon stopped pacing his steps and sat down beside me as I nodded, picking at a loose thread on my blanket, avoiding eye contact."And was everything okay?" Simon's brow furrowed. "Was something bothering you?" He questioned again as concern etched all over his face.I forced a smile, hoping he knew nothing this time about my moves. "No, nothing's wrong. Just needed some space."Simon's eyes lingered on mine, as if searched for t
SIMON I slowly opened my eyes, dizziness clouded my mind. As my vision cleared, I saw Tasha sitting right before me, her eyes fixed directly on mine. She looked...upset. I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the remnants of sleep. I felt much relieved, it's a new day to chase everything before me."Hey, Tasha." I said, my voice filled with morning roughness.Tasha's expression didn't change. "You're finally awake," she said, her tone flat. Why is she upset? Uhhh I so hate it when she acts up.I sat up straight, running a hand through my messy hair. "What's wrong again? Tasha" I asked, though I knew better than to ask.Tasha's eyes widened. "You really don't know, do you?" Her voice rose abit loud. I nodded saying no as though I was lost."You've been ignoring me, Simon. We barely talk anymore. You're always busy, always distracted. I feel like I'm just an afterthought to you." She yelled out as pain echoed in her voice.I sighed inwardly. Not this again. I don't have the energy for
ALPHA I stood firm to a pillar as the grounds of our pack shock and vibrated this was a very unusual feel. Just the Ivar my beta bursted into the hallway breathing heavily."Ivar, what's the urgency?" I asked, noticed the tension which etched all over him as he pace through and approached me."Alpha, it's...it's not over," Ivar panted, his chest and breathe heavy. "A large group of rogues are heading straight for us. I counted at least two large groups, maybe more."My thoughts kicked in, but my mind refused to believe it. We had just defeated in sending away the rogues which have been terrorizing our lands. It couldn't be happening again."What are you talking about, Ivar?" I questioned,"We settled this weeks ago. The rogue pack was no where to be found for three years."Ivar's eyes locked onto mine, his expression deepened. "I swear on my honor, Alpha. I saw them. They're flying our pack's colors, but they're not ours. They're...different. Hungry." Ivar exclaimed "The sounds of t
SYLVIA I burst through the door, my heart raced with anger and pain. How could he?Simon laid on the bed, as Tasha tended to his wounds. My eyes narrowed, focused on the traitor in front of me."Leave us alone" Simon ordered Tasha, his voice weak but authoritative.Tasha hesitated, and then quickly gathered her supplies and bursted out of the room, closing the door behind her.I moved towards Simon, my footsteps echoed in the silence. He looked up with a mixture of guilt and caution etched on his face."Sylvia, please can we not...."I didn't let him finish. My palm connected with his cheek with a very dirty and loud slap, before he could alter any further I landed another slap right at same spot."You're going to explain yourself," I hissed, landing another slap on him again for the third time.Simon's eyes turned red and little, but he remained silent, knowing better than to provoke me further."Why did you order the attack, without my consent?" I demanded, as my voice trembled wit
SYLVIA As I walked into my room and headed for the toilet. I splashed water on my face, as I washed away the lingering emotions from my encounter with the Alpha. My mind clashed with questions, but I pushed them aside, trying to focus on the task at hand.I dried my face with a mini hand towel and turned to the small cabinet in the corner of my room at a very secretive spot. This is the time to do what I've long for. My thoughts prompt.A single bottle sat on the top shelf of the cabinet, labeled "The Bryan's Blood." My heart quickened as I reached for it. Should I strike now or wait some more?? It's three years already and now Simon is getting out of hand.Just as my fingers moved closer around the bottle, the door just burst open. "Jezzzzz, what the hell." I yelled as I freaked out and Tasha stood by the doorway, as her eyes scanned the room mischievously.I quickly hid the bottle behind my back, my movements were as soft and calm not being obvious I was up to something."Tas
ALPHA I laid in bed, as my mind got consumed by thoughts of Sylvia. Her gentle touch, her piercing gaze and her unmatchable dedication. The way she tended to my wounds with concern and care, sparked a sense of longing within me.But before I could think deeper, A knock at the door broke the silence and I cleared my throat. "Enter." I answered.Simon stepped inside, dress regular on a singlet and Jean short as his expression guarded. "Alpha, how's your recovery?" He exclaimed pacing closer.I nodded, with a smile spread across my face. "Well, thanks to Sylvia, I'm healing quickly, She's really got a gift for healing, I most say." I exclaimed as I adjusted myself.Simon's eyes widened abit, as a flash of emotion etched on his face. It looked like jealousy, but I couldn't quite define it. Could he be jealous? Nahhhh he can't I'm sure. I thought to myself. Or I'm I just over thinking, due to how I feel about Sylvia?"Sylvia always come through for me," I continued, as my voice filled
SYLVIA I remain weak right on my bed as I felt a chill run down my spine as the argument with Simon lingered in my mind. The tension and frustration boiled over, and I broke down in tears. "Why? Why does everything gets tough for me?" I cried out, with my voice shaking and cracky.Was I wrong on my plans and choice? Was I standing in the way of what needed to be done? My thoughts clashed against me as I laid and looked to my roof.Memories flooded my mind, taking me back to the night Simon took me to the hills where life became restored. The very day the Alpha rejected, every memories hung in my belly, as I re called everything and how Simon's comfort had been a balm to my wounded heart.But I couldn't have him to myself, could I? Not when Tasha's face haunted me ever since my existence. I couldn't cause more pain to her than she has already faced even though I never cared, but not this time.Why haven't Simon took her as his mate yet? Does he really thinks I'm his? My thoughts
SYLVIA "Lina, you shouldn't wander off alone in the dark. It's not safe." I gently scolded Lina, trying to avoid making he cry, as we walked back to our home, the moonlight casted it's shadows on our path.Lina looked up at me with her cristal bulging innocent eyes."But mum..... I wasn't alone. I was seated right with the Alpha." Lina responded back with her tiny little voice.With the Alpha? Not again. How more can I stop Lina from publicly roaming around the Alpha? My thoughts broke but I had to remain calm and chillI smiled, even though at heart I felt a spark. "Still, you should be more careful roaming around in the pack, it's not safe enough."I concluded as we settled into our cozy room, as the burning fire waved warmly.As we sat together, I remembered the questions I had for Lina. Why did I keep forgetting? Well there was always a distraction that came up, but not this time. My thoughts concluded as I drew her closer to me as we settled in the room."Lina, can I ask you
NARRATORAs the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the pack's territory, Simon's thoughts remained consumed by his desire for Sylvia. He couldn't care less about Tasha's fate, only seeing her as an obstacle between him and his true desire.Meanwhile, Sylvia retreated to the quietness of her room, her hands moving in circles as she prepared the herbs to cure Tasha. Her compassion and kindness drove her to help Tasha recover her health, despite Simon's indifference of requesting before death.With the cure ready, Sylvia made her way to the sickroom. She pushed open the door, and found Tasha asleep. Gently, Sylvia shook Tasha's shoulder, awaking her from slumber."Tasha, I've brought the cure," Sylvia said softly. "I'm sure it will work for now and more." Sylvia assured.Tasha's eyes fluttered open, as confusion gave way to hope."This will cure me?" Tasha asked, her voice weak, yet quite hopeful."Yes, it will. Drink this, and you'll begin to feel better so
ALPHA ~moonlight~It was time for the meeting after waiting daily for a full moon, it finally came out.I got myself ready and exited and headed for the meeting. I stood at the center of the gathering, surrounded by the esteemed elders of our pack. The full moon casted a look blue glow over our meeting."Tonight, we discuss the progress of our pack," I began. "There have been so much disaster as we all know and have seen." The elders nodded."Alpha, our numbers have increased within the short three years of peace we experienced. New families have joined." An elder exclaimed just as others nodded yet grieve etched on their faces.I smiled. "But then the new curse out break is taking away higher numbers of people that we recovered after losing so much in the battle field." An other elder exclaimed, just before I could emphasizes on same issue.But my gaze fell upon an empty chair. "Elder James, where is he?" I asked as the room fell silent for some seconds."Haven't you heard?" Eld
SYLVIA "Sylvia, please be my Luna," what?? I could believe my ears With an accompanied kiss, our lips departed. The Alpha eyes locked unto mine, as his deep voice whispered those into my ears as he took hold of me..His strong hands were wrapped around me, as he drew me closer to him. I felt weak like a baby right in his hands... trying to believe his quest.My heart skipped a beat, and my pulse raced. I was out of words at the moment, I had no idea what to do. This would ruin my revenge of taking the glory and destroying the Viking pack."Emmm... I'm ... I" I stuttered, but before I could respond, a tiny ball of energy launched on me, as I freaked out realizing it was a dream."Mommy, wake up!" Lina exclaimed, as she bounced on my mattress.I cleared my eyes realizing I was right on my bed, I was enveloped in the warmth of my blanket.His Luna? Why did my dream feel so much real and true, his words and touch? I thought to myself trying to shake off the weight of sleep in my ey
ALPHA The ticking sound of the clock echoed in the silence of my office.I sat in my office, surrounded by maps and papers filled with details of our pack's struggles against the curse. My beta, Ivar, walked in, with his expression serious."Ivar, what's the current death number?" I asked with tension echoed in my voice.Ivar's face saddened yet firm."Twenty-seven and counting, Alpha. But there's hope, cause Sylvia's cure has shown promise and indeed numbers of cured members are quite increasing."I nodded to his response. "Slight progress, then?""Yes, Alpha. The pack members are responding well to her treatment," Ivar concluded with so much assurance.I gestured to a chair." Take a Sit, Ivar. I want your honest opinion." I exclaimed as Ivar took a seat opposite mine."What do you think of Sylvia?" I asked.Ivar's expression turned thoughtful."She's... remarkable I must commend, Alpha. Her dedication towards finding a cure is amazing ever since she was welcomed to this pack." Iva
SIMONI stormed into my room, as I slammed the door behind me with a resounding bang that shook the walls. Anger coursed through my veins like liquid fire, burning my skin and fueling my rage."How could she do this to me?" I rumbled words in my belly, as I paced back and forth across the room.After everything, I can't watch it end this way. Sylvia wouldn't let Tasha die and the Alpha will definitely keep using Tasha as a way to get his way with Sylvia.Something must be done. But what could that be??Ahahah! A sharp thought broke my worry.I grabbed my phone immediately and dialed a number, as my fingers trembled with anger, yet a bit of hope weighed in me."Sir, Simon what's the issue on ground?" a deep and trembling voice answered."I need a favour." I responded. "What favour will that be if I may ask?" The rouge on the other end questioned. "Take out the Alpha," I exclaimed without hesitation, with my voice low and menacing.For the moment I said it, silence took hold for a mi
SYLVIA I stood frozen in the doorway, as my eyes were locked onto the Alpha's piercing gaze. The tension was noticable, as the air thickened like a fog.But just as I searched round with my eyes, the Alpha's deep voice broke the silence, "Simon, I guess we're both done for now, so excuse us."Simon's gaze lingered on me, without voicing any words I could read suspicion and jealousy etched on his face like a scar. He stormed out, as he slammed the door with a resounding bang. Why I'm I in the midst of my emotions? Why do I feel lost in identifying what my feelings want?I remained at the doorway as the Alpha's eyes never left mine, his expression was with a mixture of curiosity and concern. "Please sylvia come take a seat." He welcomed as I snapped back fully into reality as I walked towards the table side."I wonder how long you've been out there... So what brings you today," he said.I remained silent for the moment, as my lips sealed. What could I say? My thoughts clashed. The
ALPHA I slowly opened my eyes, as I blinked away the weigh of sleep. The creeping sounds of the birds outside my window and the sun-casted shadows on my walls greeted me flashing some life for the day. I stretched, as I felt the softness of my bed.I felt like ages since I woke to life.Memories from only I wish I could remember when flashed in my mind. A flash of Sylvia's face, her eyes and her touch, played through my mind as I remained on my bed. Who was this woman? Why do I feel a spark of connection whenever she was near? She should be my mate.. but would she accept that? I flipped off the covers wrapped around me, as swung my legs over the side of the bed. My feet dangled, as I felt some cool air blew through.Just then, a knock at the door broke the silence."Enter," I called out wondering who it might be.Ivar, my trusted beta, stepped inside."Alpha, you're awake," Ivar said, "this is indeed a miracle." He exclaimed with a hint of relief in his voice and wide smile spr
