As I managed to stare into his eyes, I could see how they flames with a thousand tongues of fire. They swam deep with rage and fury, making it uneasy to continue staring.

He was a demigod!.

I quickly removed my eyes from his face as a look of irritation was visibly written on his face. Tilting his head towards his side, with a continuous stare at me, fury gulping over his face, he began to make predatory stride towards me like a ferrocious beast prepared to pounce on his prey.

With every gallant step he took, I took two backwards. Every forward step he took, I reciprocated with a backward one until I met a brick wall.

Now, with my back glued to the wall, I was left with no choice than to stand and watch him do what was in his mind, but my eyes were shut in fright, and my head turned to my right side.

He came and stood in front of me, placing one hand on the wall, and grabbing my chin with the other. I was literally shuddering in fear.

He moved his head to the side of my neck as thou

    As I got to have my tea and bread this afternoon, I moved over to a comfortable back spot where I felt no one would find me.I tried to find the courage to eat but the trauma of my experience seems to be fighting my appetite.Well, I guess I wasn't gonna hide for long. Sharon and Sophia found me as they walked up to my spot."Hello Latifah.. What's up?". She said, beaming a smile."Hi". I responded, making way for them to sit. "Hello Sophia". I added."Hi girl". Sophia retorted amicably.I was now seated between the two ladies."Hey…". She said, giving me a friendly nudge. With a closer look at my countenance, she knew something was definitely up even though she couldn't place her fingers on it. So, she decided to make light of it unconsciously though."Are you alright?.. You sure looks pale white.. Did you see a ghost?". She asked with a smirk, almost as though she was laughing.I think I she was kinda right. Don't you think so?I mean, Who would see what I had just see and would no

  • THE VICIOUS ALPHA   FIGHT IT

    Luciano's POVI was beginning to loathe the sight of this place. Watching and listening to these folks whine and complain all day about every thing that I considered insignificant was nothing short of torture.I didn't kind of enjoy breakfast because of its exhausting nature. I've always enjoyed having my meals in the comfort of my privacy than sitting here with these bunch of fools. However, as they say, necessity is the mother of invention. There has been a massive increase in the number of rogues all across the world. This has precipitated my involvement in meetings of this nature.My goodness, I have never seen men who talk and argue so much like women.What foolery!I had sometimes wished I would rip their mouths from their faces. But no!The King must sometimes learn the power of self control. I needed to learn to control myself before them. Much as I loathed their sight, I also know that they are very important personalities, members of the royal council and ofcourse, the old

    Latifah's POV.It's the dawn of another day and it simply reminded me that I needed to clean the King's room yet again. As customary, I had gone for my breakfast and immediately set out for the King's quarters. By the time I got to the last floor, I was exhausted, but then, I had no option. I had come to do my task and I must have it done.Without much ado, I got out all of my necessary cleaning equipment.I pushed the room open, noticed the door to the bedroom was left ajar. So, I decided to go shut the door when a deep, masculine baritone voice wrecked fear into, bringing me to an abrupt halt."I see you are back". The voice said.Startled, I let the items in my hand fall. I need not anyone tell me whose voice it was. The King's familiar voice hit me like a thunderbolt, and filled me with worry and anxiety. Tension and panic began to cringe upon me.I wondered why he was still around. I had tried to conclude my breakfast quickly, so as to be able to resume my day's task and finish

    I continued sweeping and cleaning everything and everywhere that needed a touch of sanitation. Finally, I was done with my chores. It was already fifteen minutes to the hour of twelve. Mid-day was at hand.Phew!I let out a sigh of relief, and then picked up my cleaning materials, as I was preparing to leave.Suddenly, I saw the door swing open. The King had returned, wearing a frown on his face. I watched and began wondering what could have gotten him wearing such a hostile countenance.Well, thank goodness I was done with my chores and was just about leaving. I picked the remaining materials, made my obeisance, and made a quick dash for the door."And who gave you the permission to leave?". He voiced in a rumbling tone.Oh no!. Not again. I was becoming exhausted with everything as my mind froze midway at the door knob. I was already having a terrible headache and my eyes were becoming blurred. Well.. he is the King.. Who am I complain? I had to suck it up to meet his demands."Who

    "Let's help you get to your room". Sharon said calmly, as they each placed my arms on their shoulders."No Sharon''. I said, as I gently removed my hands from their shoulders and necks and did the same to theirs. "I have work to do, and I need to get back to it". I said, beaming a soft smile at them, grimacing when my cheeks began to hurt."No Latifah.. No.. We can't possibly leave you like this.. How could you be thinking of getting back to work with a bleeding scalp and a bruised cheek?". Sophia retorted calmly, her eyes full of genuine concern and sympathy.I chuckled, and quietly flinched. "I understand your concerns for me.. But you see.. I don't have a choice here". I replied, wincing, and began taking one step forward to the kitchen, placing my hand on my tummy. I was really hurting from the kicks I had received.Sharon and Sophia rushed up to me, holding my hands and with teary eyes of sympathy, looked me in the eye."We are very sorry, Latifah..

    I headed for the store room, and got out my cleaning apparatii. Then, gently on the King's door I knocked a couple of times. However, there was not a response, so I gently turned the door knob and pushed, making it squeak mildly as it opened.As usual, the obviously large room was empty and I knew by instinct that the King was not present. With a breath of fresh air, I relieved his absence and immediately commenced my job, trying so hard to ignore the voice of my entire body which at this time was killing, from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet. Moreso, I carefully avoided gazing into the mirror as I knew I was already a mess, a complete shadow of my true self. It would definitely fuel my grief and pain, and that was the least thing I wanted for myself right now. Good thing I was able to quickly conclude my task on time, before the King arrived and scurried off downstairs to the maids quarters, precisely to my room. Good heavens!. I was seriously starving as I litera

  • THE VICIOUS ALPHA   WHO HURT YOU?

    lA frightening look of confusion crept across his face as he looked at my face, his eyes focusing more on the bruises on my face as well as the swelling and black eye I had now.Suddenly, he growled intensely, as he turned his eyes away from my face and returned the trail of his gaze at mine again.Suddenly, he cupped my cheeks in the most gentle and harmless manner, yet I still did hurt when he touched it. I managed to wince, moving away from his hold, as we still maintained eye contact.Suddenly, I watched on as his eyes softened for a moment, and then heralded the booming of a huge storm in it."Who did this to you?". He asked in a feat of fury.I turned my gaze immediately from him as I had my mind slip into a moment of flashback to what had happened yesterday and today ofcourse.Oh.. it was Lady Eva.. I thought about mentioning her name, but what would be the repercussions on me should I rat her out now?The King was now enraged. Suddenly, I heard a loud sound. It was the soun

    LUCIANO'S POVI sat on my Kingly throne anticipating the report of the investigation on the Blood moon pack. It's been long overdue anyway, and since these lousy council men could not come up with any lasting solution, I decided to handle it my way.First it needed to be investigated, and now that I have the results of the investigation, I needed to hear it so as to be able to decide on the next line of action."Your Majesty". Cyrus, the commanding officer said, as he bowed before me. "What report of the investigation have you brought to grace my itchy ears Cyrus?". I asked with a raised brow. "Speak at once". I ordered."Your Majesty.. The attack on the Blood moon pack has been investigated just as you commanded. It is no longer news that the rogues are camped a few kilometers from the pack, outside of its premises. Clearly, it appears they are planning to launch another attack". Cyrus spoke in clearly terms as he stood with his arms crossed before him.The report was well received.

I blinked twice.Nope, still there.My wolf.She actually came out.***I successfully got back like two hours later since I didn't really know where I was Okay, two hours may be an exaggeration but I was suddenly so tired it felt like forever.I literally felt drained.I even tripped and fell and no doubt opened up the cut on my forehead again. One minute I'm so coordinated and the next I'm just a tripping mess. Guess it's just me again.When I entered the house I heard arguing voices coming from Latifah's room. Which was probably my fault.I should have just done the wise thing and gone to my room.But of course I didn't. I never do.At this point, I don't even think that you're capable.I held the door knob and entered Latifah's room."Damon listen to me wh-"The voices stopped and their heads snapped

    I turned to look at him with a probably stupid expression on my face.What does he mean by that?"Huh?"He rolled his eyes and sighed.He has nice eyes ...Shut up."My mother obviously thinks I'm being unreasonable, so I'll try and be reasonable. Maybe you have some hidden skill or talent, sincerely, I highly doubt that. But I'll give you a chance, prove me wrong. Feel free to show me all you got. We're out in an open field ... " He gestured towards the wide plain of field.Oh no.This was worse than dying. He wants to ...Train.You lazy idiot.Hey!I didn't really know how to respond to his statement so I went with the most ladylike and appropriate response I could muster."Huh?" I was still trying to take everything in. How'd he go from kicking me out to this?He narrowed his eyes at me and shook his head.He looked up to the sky for a minute before turning back to look at me."How many miles can you do?""Miles?""Yes, how many can you run? Top speed, no break?"He said it like h

    I didn't say anything.I had run out of words to say.For about a minute.'Fine." I looked him dead in the eye as I said that one word.I was sick of all of this nonsense.I had no plan, but all I knew in that moment was that I was going to leave at once."You have absolutely no right to talk to her like that." A familiar voice scolded.We both turned around to see Latifah sitting in a wheelchair at the door frame.Damon's features immediately softened.He quickly walked over to her and started examining her face."You shouldn't be out of bed now, you know this, why are you here?""It gets very boring when you're couped up in your room all alone." She said seeming annoyed."Wait don't try and change the topicDamon, why were you speaking like that to her?"Damon's features immediately hardened again."That's none of your business.""Look Damon I get you are angry but there is no need to take it out on her. We all suffered this attack together."Damon didn't say a word, he just clenche

    Fire crackling.I distractedly watched on as the burning embers danced around in the fire place, having their own little party.The wind was blowing harshly through the windows, singing it's own sad song and rustling the curtains.People were crying.Memories were flashing.A cold shiver went up my spine. But it had nothing to do with the temperature of the room.I shuddered."Are you cold? Do you want me to shut the windows?" Mavis, who had already gotten up to close the windows, asked me with concern etched across her features.I didn't respond.But she shut it anyway.It felt like my life had had no meaning ever since the day I was born.I was doomed right from the start.Latifah wasn't dead but was badly injured from the attack.Anastasia was not dead either but in critical condition.And Damon ...Damon was unconscious.He has been for the past one week.Doctors said he was injected with far too much wolfsbane.Any normal wolf should have died but he hasn't.But he isn't safe yet

    It didn't make any sense to me when he first said it, the following events though made it crystal clear.Beta Shawn didn't say another word.He didn't need to.He just turned to the opened door and whistled, short and curt.Footsteps were heard echoing in the corridor until they reached our room. Everything in that moment seemed to go in slow motion.My heart was beating very slowly and heavily in my chest. Each footstep knocking it's pace down even further until they finally arrived.And then it just stopped altogether.Two men stepped in, one stood bythe door and the other walked to the center of the room holding something in hand.He threw it on the floor with a loud thump. The thing rolled a bit and was now lying two feet away from Damon.Damon's smirk fell completely, and he looked at the thing with quizzical eyes. He looked up at Shawn who just had a straight face on, then looked back down at the thing and sniffed it slightly. The blood drained from his face.Maybe its a bomb?I

    He opened a door and started walking down a long brightly lit corridor.He just kept taking cool strides even though I was screaming and trying to wiggle my body out of his grasp."The less you protest the easier it will be for us Princess."I heard him kick another door open and he entered and just threw me on the ground.Yes, the solid concrete ground.Inconsiderate b*stard.I hit the floor with a loud thump and I think I felt my rib crack."Arrgh, my. Spine." I moaned trying to touch my aching back, but I couldn't, my hands were fricking chained.Instead of hearing an 'I'm so sorry, I forgot the floor was made out of concrete', I heard a loud growl from the other end of the room and a lot of chains moving.The light in the room was switched on.I turned to look at Jax and saw that his eyes were beginning to glow a faint yellow. They were fixed on something and obviously begining to get irritated.I turned my head to the other end of the room and there he was, practically drowning i

    The rest of the week kinda followed the same pattern.I saw Mavis a few times but not as much as I wanted to. I hardly left the house, mainly because there was no place for me to go.Damon is constantly not around and Anastasia has been screaming the house down which is slowly driving me to suicide.Trust me, a pitch like that should be illegal.So, today, I decided to have a lazy day. Isn't everyday a lazy day for you?No, today's a real lazy day. I'm going to just while away time in the backyard.Even though it hurts me that I left myPercy Jackson books back at the cottage I was able to find some books here in the bookshelf by the dining hall.So, here I was lying on a sun loungeratthe backyard with the sun warming me a cool breeze cooling me at the same time. The backyard was huge and it had a large pool right at the centre. It had been covered though, which made me believe that he hardly ever used it.Maybe I will use it one day. Just not today.I had a glass of lemonade in one h

    I don't know how but I managed to fall asleep last night.And let me just tell you it wasn't a peaceful sleep.Far from it.I could see that the sun was already high up in the sky because of the light that shone through the thick blue curtains. I was in Damon's room.I think I woke up like two hours ago but I was still lying in bed.I couldn't find it in me to get up.Utterly confused is not even close to how I feel right now.I just couldn't make sense of anything.Everything that happened last night and the past month feel like a blur.What on earth is happening to me?Scenes from last nightkeep flashinginmy head.Why was he chained?Why did he come here? Why did he kiss me?But more importantly why did I kiss back?Oh you know why you kissed back.Shut up!It felt like a dream at this point.If it hadn't been for Marcus last night, Damon would have marked me.Actually marked me.He probably would have come to his senses this morning though and killed me.So ... maybe its a good thi

I am literally alone.Oh and I have a mate who wants to kill me.You know what, I think I should welcome death.Maybe it would be a relief from all this hassle.I had nothing to loose. Absolutely nothing.I think I would have been ready for death if he did in fact come here to kill me.What I was not ready for, and I don't think I would have ever been at that moment was what he did instead.At inhuman speed, which was literally so fast that my eyes couldn't catch it until it had already happened, he was in front of me.He grabbed the back of my head and then he leaned in.It w
