KNOX

In the comfort of my chamber, I waited for the arrival of my nephew.

I hadn't heard from him for two days and this wasn't his fault, but rather myself who had asked the guard to not let anyone in—in the meantime.

I was having the rest of my life and from the look of things, I had had more than enough and had become ready to take in visitors—Aegon especially, into my chamber.

Snapping my fingers once again, I watched the door to my chamber push open, and the guard at the door walked into the space. “My lord,” he said with a bow. “Is there something I can do for you?” Bowing again, he asked.

“Yes—” I nodded, looking around the space before meeting his gaze. “I need to ask. Did you speak to my nephew about coming to see me? I know I asked you to do that a while ago, but I need to be sure that we're on the same page.”

He bowed. “Yes, my lord. I have done that.”

“Good,” I nodded, thinking of the next errand to send him on. “Would you be kind enough to arrive at the kitchen and l

    ELEANOR For the first time in a very long time, the master idea I was waiting for popped into my head. Smiling, I paced the grounds of the chamber I owned in this pack, thinking of the right way to go about it. Then, another idea on how exactly to go about it came rushing into my head just as I wanted it. Hours later, I had come back from a hospital I had noticed on the night I took a long walk—with the item I needed for the cause of my next mission, right in my hand. But I was certain to hide it at the right spot which was underneath my outfit. What next? I asked myself, taking the item out of its hiding place. My legs led me to the closet and I put it in there for now, waiting for the right time when I would strike. It had to be at night and not during the day just as it was. A knock on the door cut short my thoughts. Looking around the room just to be certain that there's nothing that can implicate me on the surface of the bed and even on the ground, I snapped my fingers—

    SAGEYet, another week. Another day, even. This was the day when we were to be gathered again at the dining hall and I didn't want to be there. Aella, as usual, barged into the room. “Good morning, my Lady,” smiling, she reached the bedside. “It is time.” Mouthing, she looked at Aegon who rolled over to the other side of the bed. “Good morning, Prince Aegon. Is there something I can do for you?” The man shook his head. “Nothing at all, young lady. As a matter of fact, you don't owe me but the woman who I am married to.” He reached my side and kissed me, letting go and then looking at Aella, the maid, who bowed. “I'll take a bath first, then be out before my lady. She needs some time to come awake, or can you not see that?” “Yes, my lord.” Relaxing some more on the bed, I knew this chamber was better than the other one. At least, I don't get to bathe now unlike it used to be in that chamber. “Did you have a good night, Aella?” There was something different. Something I could

    SAGEIn my room, and a few days after the moment in the dining room, I paced the space with many thoughts that filled my head. From the look of things, I could not have an answer to my question but this, at the same time, did not stop me from thinking about what my so-called sister could be up to. That bitch who would do anything. Anything at all to get what she wants. What was she up to this time around? I looked at the door when it seemed like someone was about to walk in, but no one was about to walk in. Tired from pacing the space, I took a seat on the bed and started to rack my head once again. What was she up to? Leaving the pack shouldn't be on her list of options—so how come was this even happening? I looked at the door again, concentrating on my thoughts once more. Then, my thoughts drifted to the moment at the dining table. How I lost my temper because of that woman who looked at me from the head down to my toes with a decision to make me look like a fool. Who the fuck

    SAGEThe most awaited day arrived. Staring down at what went on in the compound from the window, I gazed at the car that would take my so-called sister back to The Moonclaw Pack. A smile came on my countenance and I heaved a sigh. There was happiness in me, mixed with curiosity, anxiety, and even fear. But why should I worry? In the meantime, the Prince was mine and nothing would take him away from me. Not even a woman born by a housecleaner who ended up being an adoptive princess. “Yes—” I didn't know when the word ran out of my mouth, but it did, anyway. A guard opened the door for her and she hopped in, while another hopped in the driver's seat and another hopped in the backseat where Eleanor was. And just about that time, the car moved. There was a sigh of relief—the kind I had seldom heaved, ran out of my mouth. I fell on the bed and drifted to sleep almost immediately, certain that a smile was on my face while I was at it. Later in the evening, I woke up with a slight h

    KNOX **One Month Later It was a month after my nephew and his wife had intercourse, and there were no signs of pregnancy. Or was there? Worry clouded my face on a morning like this and the very moment I opened my eyes. Maybe it was because of the nightmare I had just woken up from—when my nephew was in trouble and in need of help. The child was our savior. And the last time I checked, Aegon wasn't any better. Maybe he was, but I needed to hear the news and be certain that there was a way out of this. Snapping my fingers, I relaxed my back on the bed once more. “Good morning, Brian,” I greeted the guard who walked in. “How about you call the Prince for me? I would love to have a word or two with him.” I sat up now, heaving a sigh. “Can you be fast about it?” “Good morning, my lord,” Brian bowed. “Give me a moment to call the Prince. Is there someone else you would love for me to call on your behalf?” I thought about it, shaking my head almost immediately. Th

    SAGE **One Month Later Once again, I was out of my room and walking through the hallway with many thoughts running around in my head. The last time, I had given my blood sample to Doctor Logan who ran a pregnancy test on me—only to be told that I wasn't with child. How was that even possible? And again, I had given my blood sample to him just last week—just so we could try again. In my heart, I wished for a positive result. Never in my life have I been so scared. The fear that ran through my veins on this day could not be compared to the one I used to have while living in The Moonclaw Pack. I was beginning to feel unsafe. Anxious and worried about what this result could be. “My lady!” From behind, someone called. It was a more familiar voice that caused me to turn around as I managed a smile on my countenance. “Yes, Aella.” “My lady—” the younger woman walked closer. “Are you leaving the pack for a walk? Why did you not come to call me so that I could at least join you?” S

    SAGE**One Month LaterI didn't know what to do anymore. Not when there were no signs of pregnancy after another month since the last test result. Obviously, Aegon had become frustrated and at this point and I didn't have the slightest idea what to say to him. Because how could I say something when I didn't know what exactly the issue was? It was another morning and I wished that I did not wake. Aegon, my handsome husband, was lying next to me on the bed. He was facing the other side of the bed which was what I wanted. But how do I stand up and leave for the bathroom, or maybe out of the chamber? Aella, these days didn't do much as usual. I had gotten to the point where I bathed myself and walked out of the room, heading to the kitchen so that I could take a tray of meals for myself. Sometimes, Aegon also. Sitting up on the bed, I realized that Aegon wasn't next to me there. So who did I see a while ago? Perhaps, it was because of how sleepy I was and that was why I could not

    SAGETonight, the full moon will come out. Once again, I looked forward to giving my blood to the man I was married to. The last time I checked, it was important I did that, even though I didn't have the slightest idea why this was part of their traditions. It was in the evening, and everyone was getting ready to be gathered in the compound for the event. No, the moment. In my chamber, I looked at myself in the mirror. Aella, who should be getting me dressed, left the chamber a while ago to get me a bottle of water. The last time I checked, more than enough energy was needed for this cause and I could not wait for this moment to come and go so that I could go back to the life I used to have—before the full moon. And get ready for the next full moon. Did my life have to be a mess? “My lady,” the door opened again. “Aella,” I looked at her. “Where is my husband?” “I don't know but he has to be with the Alpha,” she walked closer and dropped the bottle on the table. “Would you

    ELEANOR Finally! This was the point where I kickstarted my second option on the list of a few to be where I wanted to be. The thought of this brought a smile to my face, and again, I thought of it in another way. Just the way that I wanted it to be, and that was how it was going to be because the last time I checked, it was me who made the rules. The Prince was mine. I had meant every word to Sage when I said them to her over and over again. Did she think of me as a joker? Maybe she did—and now was the time to prove to her that I wasn't in any way joking, but rather, she was the one who was joking when she said it wasn't possible. What was I going to do? It was simple. I was going to let him know that I was pregnant, even though I wasn't, but how was he going to confirm that? A smile pulled on my countenance again, and I adjusted on the bed, picking up my phone from the small table next to it and then moping at its screen to check out the time. Nodding, I knew this w

    SAGEI had woken up a while ago but was relaxing some more when a hand tapped me. At first, I was startled by his touch. It was none other reason than the fact that during my relaxation, I was thinking about a lot. A lot I should not think about in the first place, but rather let go because I have had enough. This was something my brain found hard to process. Turning around for a moment, there was Aegon who moped at me from behind. “Good morning, my Lady.” He flashed me a smile I considered beautiful.“Did you have a good night's rest?” He sat up on the bed while I looked away, trying to make up my mind before I sat up on the bed just like he'd done. “Good morning, my Lord—” I greeted also. “Good morning, Prince Aegon—” again, I mouthed, not attempting to sit up. There was a surprised look on my countenance and I asked him. “Shouldn't you be resting, Aegon? I reckon that you should be sleeping and not awake. Did you sleep last night?” “I should, but I don't feel sleepy Sage,”

    SAGEThe shocking look on the countenance of the Alpha told me everything I needed to know. I also was more than shocked by all that was happening, but what choice did they leave me with? Aegon had been on bedrest since the last time and there was no way I would watch him die. He was my husband the last time I checked. I could not watch him die, no matter what. These past few days, I have tried to have the heart I thought I had but there was no way it worked. No matter how hard I tried to have the wicked heart I wished I had so that it could be used against him, it was impossible to stand my ground. A sigh ran out of my mouth. I became deep in thoughts, forgetting what I said to the Alpha who sure was moping at me. I caught up with the couch and took a seat, holding back tears from falling from my face. What else was I supposed to do if I did not give blood to Aegon? He was going to die and I would be hurt for the rest of my life. Yet, another sigh ran out of my mouth. Or do

    KNOXI waited at the gate of the pack mornings after that evening, waiting for Logan to make it. He had called to announce his coming a while ago, and I looked forward to having him around. There was not much time to waste, and I didn't have all day. Maybe I did, but I didn't have the patience he thought I had. Just about that time, a car was seen driving towards the gate—it was Logan's. “Guards! One of you should do the needful—” I commanded and moved from the gate. “Doctor Logan should not be kept waiting. I'm sure by now that you know the issue at hand.” The man who took over the order did as told. There was no need to run around but rather, I asked that a maid bring two chairs to the small veranda close to the garden. There, I was seated and waiting for Logan who was taking forever to make it to the spot. In a short while, he arrived. “My lord—” with a bow, he greeted, leading his way further. “Long live the Alpha. Forgive me for spending so much time, but you should underst

    SAGE Why should I keep sulking? What good was it going to do for me? I wiped my face with both hands, reached for the bowl of fruit, and took out another, ready to bite into it when it struck me. The Alpha was in the chamber. What for?Why should it even bother me? The man must have come to check on his nephew who lay on the bed like a log of wood. There was no way he had come to see a woman who needed more than enough time to take in all the news. So much went about in my head. What was I going to do? What was there to do? The only thing I could do was take in this news and see it as my fate. Maybe I was also cursed, but not in that way. My curse was my fate—being married and bonded to other cursed people. What more could it be? Right from the beginning of my life, there had seldom been peace for me. Starting from being thrown away by my mother, according to what Eleanor said to me. Down to being brought back to the Pack but was treated like a stranger like I didn't matter in

    KNOX“What have you done, Aegon?” When he kept mute for too long, I asked again. At this point, I no longer paced the space. My legs had become too weak and I needed to take a seat. “Uncle—” he cried. “I didn't have a choice. Didn't you say she would find out about it one way or the other? I just couldn't keep it from her any longer.” “Oh, no, Aegon!” I adjusted on the bed and opened my mouth to speak again, but there was nothing I had to say. My throat had dried up once again, and I lost my words. “I don't know what to say to you. Why and how did she find out? Did she point a gun to your head in the name of threats? How could you fall for such a thing?” “I didn't fall for anything—” he cried. “My wife wasn't going to give blood to me if I didn't tell her what exactly the issue was. Alpha Knox, this is the condition she gave me when I met her for some blood a while ago. I needed to take some because of how weak I felt, and she wasn't willing to give some to me.” I let out an

    KNOXI had taken my bath and changed my clothes, ready to sleep when a hand knocked on the door of my chamber. Earlier today, I gave an order to Brian, asking him to not let anyone into my chamber because of how tired I was. This wasn't the usual isolation but I needed some time to myself and nothing more. This way, I could regain some strengths that were lost. But why did the young man knock at the door of my chamber after being told what to do? Perhaps. Just perhaps, it was something serious. “Come on in, Brian,” I snapped my fingers and the door opened. “What did I tell you earlier today? Or did I not pass a message to you before now? Do well to remind me, for I think I am losing my mind. Maybe I didn't tell you and I think I did. Did I tell you anything?” The young man bowed. “Forgive me, my lord.” “That doesn't answer my question, Brian. Did I pass a message across to you earlier this afternoon or not?” “You did, Alpha Knox,” again, he bowed. “You asked me to not disturb y

    SAGEFor a moment, I thought I didn't hear him correctly. “What did you say, Aegon?” He moved farther from me. How did he know that at this point, I would be willing to drive a knife into his heart? “What did you say just now, Aegon?” “I—” the man stuttered. “I am a cursed man, Sage.” There was no way I would sit and take in this news. My legs, on their own and without a lead, pushed me to my feet. The next moment, I found myself pacing the space with a confused look that was plastered on my countenance. “I don't understand.” How could I understand? How could I understand what that statement had to do with sipping my blood now and then, and even on days that weren't the full moon? “What are you saying?!” I shouted at the top of my voice. The urge to hit the man was more than overwhelming, and I didn't know how I was supposed to deal with such a piece of news. “Talk to me, Aegon. I am listening to you. Can you get words out of your mouth?” “I'm sorry.” “What are you sorry f

    SAGEThe fruit I was feasting on, fell to the ground. Or was it me who didn't hear him correctly? I wondered, a confused look on my countenance as I looked up to see the face of Aegon who moped at me as though he had seen a ghost. “I'm afraid I did not hear you correctly, my Prince. Would you like to repeat what you have just asked me?” The man coed. He nodded but shifted farther. How did he know I wouldn't mind driving a knife through his heart? No, that was extreme but with the anger boiling inside of me, I could do any and everything. “What did you ask me?” “Blood—” the man mouthed, shamelessly. “I'll need a cup of your blood, baby. That's what I said.” Of course, my ears were working perfectly. There was no way I heard the wrong thing because my ears did not have any fault. “Why?” I then asked, controlling my anger. Perhaps—just perhaps, there was a reason why he needed blood from me after taking so much from me just yesterday that was the full moon night. “Why should I g
