THIRD PERSON POV “I'm telling you, Alpha, something's wrong with your son,” Beta Valor insisted. “He's weaker than before, plus it's like he has never fought a day in his life.” Even though Miranda swore she was getting better at training and sparring, she felt her muscles getting stronger but still, her efforts were no good to the beta. He knew Nigel had more to offer, but he didn’t know why the boy was holding back. Alpha Nolan ground his teeth together. He wanted to smack his beta over the mouth for speaking such things about his son, but even he couldn't deny what his beta was saying, because even he saw that something was wrong with Nigel. The boy had not brought a girl in his chambers for weeks, plus he had been caught singing songs that reminded the Alpha of cotton candies and pink clouds. When he asked Nigel who he was listening to, he told him it was the great, Taylor Swift. The alpha cracked his knuckles, stressing about what his mind was concluding. His boy was a fairy an
MIRANDA'S POV Beta Valor mind-linked me and told me that training was postponed today. They were having over another powerful alpha from a neighbouring pack to talk about some important issues. I assumed it must be regarding the alpha trials. I didn't mind not training today, my joints were sore, and I was a little down since Nigel and I went back into the woods last night to see if we could find some answers to why this had happened to us. But after hours of searching, arguing and crying, we found nothing, so we gave up and retreated to our beds. I was also relieved that my friends knew about this, so if this was a forever type of thing, then at least I wouldn't have to endure the burden of carrying this secret for the rest of my life. I was just happy I could be myself, even though I wasn't myself. A gentle knock came on my door, and the subtle scent of flowers and honey told me it was Nigel's mother. The longer I was in this body, the more I was in tune with these supernatural po
TRIGGER WARNING! EXPLICIT CONTENT! MENTION OF FORCE SEX AND INCEST! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! MIRANDA'S POV Beta Valor handed over the young she-wolf to Maximus, who grabbed the girl and held her before him like she was on display. “Look at her, Alpha Nolan, isn't she beautiful?” He sank his head in the crook of the girl's neck and sniffed her shamelessly, he sucked her earlobe into his mouth and the girl squeezed her eyes shut while her body trembled in disgust and terror. Maximus grunted as he shoved her away from him. His cock was rock hard and visible against his trousers and he growled some more as he tried to shift his erection around to give his hard-on some space. I stared at the girl who was shoved on the floor. Her body curled up in a ball while she sobbed her eyes out. How could this bastard do this to this poor helpless girl? Alpha Nolan walked up to the girl and held her hands. “Get up, child. Let me get a better look at you.” He gently helped her to her feet, then
NIGEL'S POV You know how those cartoon characters feel when a piano falls on their head? Well, yeah, that was how I felt. Like a punch to the face. That's how I woke up this morning. It seemed as if my brain was now too big for my skull. My head felt swollen and my lips were so dry that my mouth couldn't even produce a drop of saliva to ease my parched throat. My stomach lurched and gurgled. “What the hell is happening to me?” I asked myself. Slowly, I sat up in the bed with my feet dangling over the side. My movements added a wave of nausea to my misery. The aching in my skull ebbed and flowed like a cold tide, yet the pain was always there. I felt like the darkest of clouds were hovering over my head, with no intention of clearing until late afternoon. I didn't want to move, but the awful aftertaste in my mouth sent me rushing to the bathroom. I fell to my knees and emptied what smelt like shit mixed with acid inside the toilet bowl. I was terrified. I didn't know what was hap
MIRANDA'S POV My head was still spinning from the breakfast surprise I had this morning. The chaos of it all made me forget I didn't eat anything and the big bad wolf inside me was crying dramatically. "I'm gonna die in here if I don't eat something soon,” he complained. “I need a bunny or maybe a deer. Let’s go for a run.” "Taurus, I promise I will get you something soon. I'm still processing all that happened this morning,” I sighed, pacing back and forth. The look on Eliza’s face when her father touched her like that, it made me sick, and suddenly, I wasn’t feeling hungry any more. I hated that Maximus Thorn. With a name like that, you had to know the man was straight poison. “I still can’t wrap my brain around what Nolan did.” “Yeah, me too,” Taurus chimed in. “I can't believe father has bought me a bride. That practice is so barbaric.” “Wait, werewolves normally do that?” I was quick to ask because this wasn’t in any of the chapters I read in The Alpha’s Destiny. “Yes, bac
THIRD PERSON POVTaurus was fast asleep after Miranda took him out for a run. She didn't want to kill those poor deer, but she didn't have a choice. She was tucked away for the most part as Taurus devoured his meals. Then he ran for an hour before taking a swim in the lake in the woods. Miranda was still wet from her shower. She was halfway finished with getting dressed when Valko burst into the room. “What in God's name!” She shrieked. “No time to be a girl, Miranda, but we have big problems,” Valko told her and Miranda fretted. She couldn’t take any more unpleasant surprises. “What kind of problems?” She asked. “Well, for one, your parents are here demanding to see the Alpha and two, your fucking parents are here demanding to see the Alpha! You know how crazy Nigel's dad can get?” Valko shouted. “Yeah, I think I got the memo when he bought a girl for his son to marry. Like, who does that?” Miranda scoffed. “Come on. Vel and the others are waiting for you.”“Waiting for me! Why
THIRD PERSON POV Melissa and Paul were in awe of the periodic decor of the mansion. They kept staring at the timeless paintings, which by the looks of them were worth millions of dollars. The chandeliers sparkled so brightly they could tell they were made from genuine gold and crystals. Melissa almost forgot why they were there at the Vanderwolf's mansion in the first place. She took out her iPhone and began to snap photos of the Egyptian carpets that flooded the floors and the rare mahogany furniture that was varnished to shiny perfections. Mr. W forbid Nigel from speaking unless he was spoken to. He couldn't believe this was happening because of one stupid text message that was supposed to be funny. He kept his mouth shut as he followed Valor and Miranda's parents to his father's office. Being here again, inside the mansion, only reminded him how much he missed his life. Beta Valor made an abrupt stop. "Don't touch anything and be respectful when speaking to Mr. Vanderwolf," h
THIRD PERSON POVThe atmosphere grew even more intense as Mr. Whitmore folded his fist. He was ready to clutch Alpha Nolan in the face. How dare this man kept insulting his sweet daughter when his son was the bad influence in all of this? The alpha was pleading with his eyes for Mr. Whitmore to hit him. Not only would he be the one who got hurt, but his wrist would break if he ever punched Nolan. Werewolf bones felt like concrete to a human. The tension broke when Beta Valor barged inside the office. Alpha Nolan’s head snapped towards him. “What is it, Valor?” He ordered through the link. “There has been an attack!” He replied. Everyone present knew the two were talking telepathically, except for Melissa and Paul. “What kind of attack?” Nolan demanded as he walked away from Paul. Valor looked to the humans and then to his alpha and spoke out loud. “It’s an animal attack, and it's bad.”Melissa gasped. “Someone got hurt?” She asked, and Nolan nodded. Nolan then asked his beta. “Wh
NIGEL'S POVI was tired and hungry, plus I didn't understand why these nerds weren't bothered by the shit smell that was seeping off my so-called grandpa. So what if he looked exactly like my dad under his hobo appearance? That still didn't make him my grandfather. I hissed because if he resembled my father, it also meant he resembled me since people said I was a spitting image of my dad. Life was so unfair. I hate this, and I hate him. Nigel Senior, I scoffed. Why did Father have to name me after such an evil man? "Are we there yet?" I was this close to screaming and throwing a bitch-fit. My feet hurt to the point they felt like they were about to fall off. "Just a couple more minutes," my grandpappy answered. His breath smelt terrible... Like when was the last fucking time he used toothpaste? I looked around and smacked myself in the face. There were no supermarkets or malls here, so of course he didn't have access to the finer things in life. And Miranda thought Howling's Cliff
MIRANDA'S POV"Excuse me! Come again! You're my what?" I asked, raising my hands in the air and waving them about like I was at a rock concert. With his palm still outstretched to me, he repeated, "My name is Alpha Nigel Vanderwolf, and I am your grand...""Yes, yes, I heard you the first time,” I choked out. "But you just said I should...""I know what I just said, it was a rhetorical question." When he realized I wasn't going to shake his hand, he dropped it to his side. My eyes scanned him from head to toe. "Mighty God!" I yelped when I saw his feet. His toes seemed like they were not on speaking terms with each other to how far apart they were spread. His rugged look reminded me of when Alan came back after spending twenty years in the Jumanji Jungle. "So you're Nigel Senior," Valko finally spoke. He stepped up to the old man. "I'm Valko Silver.""Ah, I should have known Valor's pup would be following behind Nolan's pup's tail," he chuckled, and Velma growled. "And what's your
THIRD-PERSON POVA werewolf emerged from the shadows, but he was not an ordinary predator. He moved like he was a shadow; he made no sounds or caused no ruckus. He fixed his bright red eyes on the human girl curled up in the arms of the young werewolf. The sounds of their heavy breathings and thumping hearts were music to his ears because he found satisfaction in seeing his victims paralysed with fright, which made their flesh soft for him to dine on. Their screams also made their blood turned sweeter, resulting in the best sort of perfume for him. His nostrils widened as he detected the scent of the human. He curled back his lips, revealing his dark gums and yellow stained teeth, letting out a low rumbling growl. He didn’t care that he was outnumbered, as he already understood their outcomes; within moments, the girl would suffer a fatal wound to her throat, her body would be eaten, and her blood would mark the ground covered in grass. It would be easy for him to pick them off on
THIRD-PERSON POVDuran's mind kept going back to his mate, wondering what she was doing, and if she missed him. Izanna's description of the Mad Alpha was making him rethink this trip he was on. He should have stayed home with his mate who was carrying his pup. The Moon Goddess would be cruel to kill him now after all that he had been through. As he made his way to the Mystic Mountain, his mind became chaotic. Clarke occupied most of Valko's thoughts. He loved how vibrant and red her hair was and how incredibly luscious, thick and flawless those curls were. He kept reminiscing about how she arched her back and flashed her hair from side to side when they made love. Now he wondered if coming on this adventure was the right thing to do. Breathing out, he made his way steadily toward the mountain that was said to be home to this Mad Alpha. Velma walked alongside Lazarus, their hands intertwined. The two seemed inseparable now that most of their friends knew they were true mates. Velma w
LAZARUS'S POVIt had been two centuries since I tasted human blood. Other vampires might describe it as being rich, tantalizing, or irresistible. But for me it is sensual, addictive, and climatic. The taste of this human's blood was unlike any I'd ever tasted. It was like I couldn't stop. The more mouthfuls I took, the more my thirst intensified.I could feel Nigel's muscles resisting at first when my fangs found his flesh and pierced into it. The soft warmth giving way like a ripe melon, filling my mouth with thick, delicious blood. He shuddered in my hands as I drew deep, gulping mouthful after mouthful, revelling in the strength and life that filled my veins, jolted my limbs, granted me a semblance of life.Soon my pheromones entered his bloodstream through my saliva and even though I was killing him, the high and ecstasy of my bite was tricking his brain into begging me not to stop. He let out soft moans, his body relaxing as I supported more of his weight with my strong arms w
THIRD-PERSON POV Miranda found the walk back to the Nymph camp less awkward than she expected. She learned that Nigel had been retrieving bits of his memory for the last couple of days, but once he emerged from the whirlpool, everything flooded back to him. They walked hand in hand, enjoying their conversation. He questioned her regarding her training with beta Valor, and she felt compelled to tell him the truth that things weren't progressing well. "I'm glad you told me," Nigel murmured. "Father must be pissed." "Yeah, he is big mad," Miranda whispered. "I just wish I knew how mom is doing, especially after learning that father whipped you," he paused. "I'm so sorry, Miranda." "It's OK, it's not your fault." Miranda felt guilty for keeping what truly happened to Peaches from Nigel. "I know, even so, I wish I was there for you." "Believe me, you should feel grateful that you missed what he did to Peaches." "MIRANDA!" Taurus boomed. "Crap," Miranda cursed und
MIRANDA'S POV "Where do you buy your perfume?" He asked out of the blue. We seized our splashes and worked to catch our breaths. "At an outlet." "Oh, I think I will get some when we go home. I've run out, and I like how it smells." "OK," I let out with a questioning tone. "Cool," he answered. "You're weird," I wrinkled my nose. "I am?" He challenged, moving impossibly closer to me so that my chest was touching his, causing me to gulp in exhilaration and also intimidation. I thought we were done touching for now. "Yes you are." "Well you're beautiful, Miranda." What? "Are you high or something?" I snorted, trying to act unaffected, although my heart was beating at an inhumanly fast speed. "I can't be here for this," Taurus rumbled. "I'm out." I felt Taurus drifting away, refusing to endure us any further. He shook his head. "I'm completely sober." "Well thank you, I guess," I replied, swallowing hard. "You're beautiful too, Nigel." "I know," he smir
MIRANDA'S POV I was really nervous and couldn't believe I was actually skinny-dipping in an enchanted lagoon with Nigel Vanderwolf. I was too busy asking myself why the heck was I doing this to notice Nigel swimming closer to me. "Why do you look so constipated?" He asked. I shifted my gaze in a shy manner, blushing as I realized he had noticed my uncertainty. "I am not constipated, I'm just..." His hands around my shoulders cuts my speech. "Nervous? But there's nothing to be nervous about," he chuckled. "Look around you, we're in a mystical place swimming in the bluest lagoon I've ever seen." "Yes, but we're also naked," I told him, my mind trying to think about something other than us touching while we were both naked. "So what? We were born naked," he cackled. "Look Miranda, if you're gonna roll with werewolves, you've gotta learn how to swing in the nude 99 percent of the time." "Believe that," I heard Taurus let out. "I don't think I'll ever get used t
THIRD-PERSON POV The group of heroes continued following the nymph until they started to notice a surreal light filtering from between some palm trees that stood in line like soldiers, but up further there were a few that were woven together almost like fabric. The branches formed one huge canopy over the top of this charming spot. While the friends studied the branches, they became aware of their surroundings. In the stillness, the wind serenaded a sweet melody through the air. The breeze against their cheeks felt like tiny wet kisses against their skin. As the leaves rustled together, they formed a soothing ambiance that enveloped the group, making them feel secure and tranquil. The echoes of laughter and idle conversations filled the air around them. With each step they took, the noise increased in volume. The sound of birds singing and flutes playing romantic ballads also filled the air. Izanna made an abrupt stop and instructed everyone to be quiet before she pulled
