SIMON The sun reflected on my face as I woke up to an unsettling silence enveloped in my room. My room was covered with in darkness, except for the faint sunlight which peeked through the window. As I laid back on my bed just there, and thoughts raced like a runaway horse.Why do I always feel this growing unease? It was as if my instincts were screaming warnings, but I couldn't quite understand the message. Everything around me just began feeling so much off.The thoughts of sylvia and the Alpha clashed my mind as their bond seemed to be strengthening instead of weakening. It all felt like a trap which was tightening around my neck. What would happen if the Alpha realizes that she was the sylvia he maltreated and made weak many years ago?I couldn't shake the image of how Lina ran into the Alpha's arms like father and daughter. The way he held her and comforted her...it was like a punch to my gut. Lina never came close to me since we moved to this pack. She forgot how everyday
SYLVIA "Marry me, Sylvia."I stood frozen, as my eyes locked on Simon's, as if time itself had stopped. His words echoed in my mind like it bounced of a microphoneThe shock was unshakable, I couldn't shake off the feel that felt like a slap to the face. I couldn't process neither could I feel my breathe."Simon...I..." I stammered, my voice barely audible.Simon's face blurred as tears help up, threatening to spill over. I felt like I was drowning in his gaze."Say yes," he whispered, his voice low and husky as he moved closer locked to my eyes.I shook my head, as I tried to clear the clashing race of questions and thoughts in my head."For now, I'm .... Sorry ..... I.....can't accept," I said, as my voice firm but trembled in fear and uncertainty.Simon's expression softened, his eyes filled with understanding."Sylvia, it's fine, but you should know...I want you in my life forever. I promise to care for you and Lina," he said, as his words dripped with conviction. What makes hi
SYLVIA I sat in the Alpha's office, as our eyes were locked in a silent but understanding. The dim lighting casted shadows on his face, right the sharp angles of his jawline."What's the update towards the curse...?" He asked his voice way different from usual."Alpha, I've tried curing few people but it keeps getting worst, but surely it shall end," I began, my voice steady.But my words broke off as I read something wrong in his expression. His eyes seemed... Coloured like someone battling with fever. Is everything okay with him?The usual confidence and authority were replaced by a fill of vulnerability."Sylvia, so how's the curse investigation going?" He asked, "any update or trail from what may be the cause of the curse?". He added his words as his voice strained and his words slower than usual.I opened my mouth to respond, but he suddenly coughed out loud stopping me from altering any word. What the fuck is that?? My mind blew off as blood splashed onto his desk, staining th
SYLVIA I slowly rose from the chair beside the Alpha's bed, with my eyes locked onto his. His gaze was intensed, as it pierced through me like a dagger.What does he want to know? Why did he ask if I meant my words? Shit I fucked up subconsciously.Do I tell him it was out of empathy? Nahhh I'll just play dumb."You called me your love, when I was bleeding" he said again, "did you really mean those words or it was sympathy? He completed withhis voice low and husky, as he grabbed my wrist soft and weak.His smooth touch and words sent shivers down my spine. I felt tension at its peak arising right within me.My heart skipped a beat, as it raced like a wild animal. I felt my face flush, as warmth spread across my cheeks. Why does he really want to know? I froze a second, with my mind blank. How did he hear that? I thought I only whispered it to myself, my thoughts clashed in silent confession.I attempted to compose myself, smiling weakly. As I gently rested his stretched hand, hange
SYLVIA I stormed towards Simon's room, my heart raced with anticipation, as my feet pounded against the floor in quick succession. But as I reached the door, his guard interrupted me, before I could make my way in, his hand extended to block my path."Sylvia, Simon's not here. He had just left for the sick room," he said, his voice firm but polite.My tension broke in even more, as my brow furrowed in concern. What was going on? Why does everything feels so strange and weird? My thoughts battled as I made my way.I walked around, trying to rush my steps towards the sick room, as my long steps devoured the distance. My mind was filled with possibilities.I took a deep breathe before I bursted through the sick room door, out of breath, my hands grasped the door handle to steady myself. The sight before me made my heart sink. What the hell is going on? Tasha?My eyes spotted tasha who weakly laid on a bed, with her body swollen and disfigured, her skin pale and weaken. Simon sat besid
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
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
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 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
