Writer's POVThe whole pack went into a chaos of murmurings, even Khloe had stopped screaming. " Hey you shouldn't be here." Jamal said to Anubis in-between clenched teeth as he walked toward her, towering over her petite figure." Leave her be." Derrick finally said something after a long while of silence." You do know that begging forgiveness for the human is a sin right?" Derrick asked walking back into the court fully." I mean no disrespect alpha, but the human is innocent." Anubis said, with her head bowed." Innocent? She killed Amigo my brother, your mate!" Derrick said getting angry." You are right about her murdering Amigo but she is still innocent of the crime she is about to be punished for." Anubis still insisted on Khloe's innocence.Her statement left everyone confused; Derrick, his pack and even Khloe." I know you all must be giving my sanity a rethink but I assure you that indeed, I am as sane as any lycan here. Truly, the human has got Amigo's blood on her hands
DerrickI couldn't decide on what to do anymore.Cami's revelation had thrown me off balance while Anubis' had left me unable to make my judgement.The human girl was still under the Pendulum. I tried my possible best to avoid her sight to prevent any distractions from Kodiac.Cami sat down a little distance away from a weeping Anubis." She speaks the truth." Cami said simply.I found it really hard to believe that Cami would ever make a statement as simple as that.My heart sank realizing that my brother had died a rogue.Why didn't he speak to anyone about what he was experiencing? The Shaman would have found some kind of cure for him or anything to put him under control.I had been punishing the wrong person the whole time. Kodiac would have never forgiven me if anything had happened to the human girl. My pack would have seen me as an unjust leader.I didn't even know what to do anymore.I couldn't let Anubis be treated like any wolf, she was my brother's mate and that makes her r
Writer's POVDerrick was supposed to join the rest of the royal family for dinner but for some reason, he just decided to remain in his Chambers.He normally would have ordered the maids bring up his food but he already had so much on his mind that he felt filled already.At the royal family's dinning table***" What is your problem? Are you so blind that you can't see anything in front of you?" Ash, Derrick's sister yelled at the maid that was serving her food." I'm so sorry." The maid apologized with a slight bow." It's okay Ash, she's probably just tired. Who wouldn't be stressed out with the happenings in the pack?" Aztec, Ash's mate spoke, trying to help the maid out of his mate's trouble." It's okay really? She couldn't even address me properly. Why should she even be stressed? I mean she wasn't killed, she wasn't part of the troup that was chosen to retrieve Amigo's body, she wasn't imprisoned with the human, all she did was sit around, doing nothing!" Ash yelled louder at b
KhloeI wasn't dragged into the court room like usual. I was only handcuffed when I got to the same stand that I was the last time only that this time, I wasn't put under a pendulum like the last time. I knelt down before everyone as we awaited the presence of the alpha.Writer's POVThe witches had gathered at dawn to commence the ritual.Since they already had his blood, they needed no more time to waste.Having known about the fact that he was a Primordial, they knew they had to put in their utmost best if they wanted the ritual not to backfire.Little did they know that they didn't even need the slightest effort to get the ritual working.The ritual would only be difficult if the heart of the target wasn't void of love. Derrick's heart wasn't void of love, it also wasn't filled with love. Nevertheless, as long as it wasn't void of love, the ritual would be very effective.They gathered around a very big caldron which was placed on a burner. They poured Derrick's blood into the ca
Alexandra" Is it working already?" I asked myself.The alpha hadn't said anything in more the ten minutes. He had only been making facial expressions and if I'm seeing correctly, those are expressions of fear, surprise, realization and possession.He almost fell to the ground after standing for more than ten minutes without saying anything. When Jamal helped him to his feet, he was looking different.Nobody else might have noticed it because I was the only one in the pack who had an idea of what he was experiencing.His countenance was different, his eyes looked darker from my angle, his hair looked messy and his jaws tightened." Say something." I urged him like he could hear me.I was desperate for him to speak. I didn't want to get my hopes high just by merely looking at his new features. I mean, his hair might have become messy because he almost fell and the other features might just have been a reflection of the light." Common say something." I urged a bit louder like he could
Alexandra" Seriously, I couldn't be happier. You really made my morning." I said in a cheerful voice to the witches as they cleaned up where they had used for the ritual." Don't you think it's a bit risky for the both of us that you visit too frequently?" Nanika asked in her usual smoky voice." Are all witches made to be sexually better than every other creature?" I asked, ignoring her question which she didn't usually condole.I had watched Nanika ever since the first full moon that I witnessed. She indeed was a very beautiful and attractive woman. As a matter of fact, beauty was an underestimation of what she looked like.The preceding alpha's second mate was also a beauty, even more beautiful than Nanika. Her features were abnormal but out of this world. I had always wanted to be her when I was still a kid but I guess I was the only one who truly admired and wanted her in the pack. Maybe if she had ended up becoming Luna, there wouldn't be any form of segregation between the dif
Mrs JohnsonThe cops already found something suspicious in the cabin so they decided to investigate it. We are not sure what it is yet but they believe it could lead us to Khloe and my son.After everything that's happened, I will not be able to leave Khloe's mother by herself. Even with the nurses, she still needed someone she was familiar with so, I decided to stay.A few of the cops remained with us for protection, while the others journeyed their way to the woods.I hope Michael and Khloe are found before anything bad happened to them.Writer's POVThe police officers arrived at the cabin in a short time. As soon as they did, they situated themselves in the positions instructed by their leader; a few took positions all around the cabin, others hidden places around the vicinity of the cabin. More than a few went into the cabin.They took pictures of the blood stain that had long gone dry, the broken wall and door and also the big muddy foot prints on the rogue on the cabin's wooden
KhloeI was breathing heavily in pains staring at my broken fingers.It was as if the clothe was made of metallic thread. Carrying the garment was a huge task alone. My arms were so heavy that I felt like I had grown muscles.I didn't even know where to dry the garment. I didn't want to anger him by leaving his Chambers without his approval, I also couldn't dry the garment in here." Oh heavens! How would I continue living like this?" I cried, finding a bit of comfort on the shiny floor that had been made craftily with marble.I was still in my thoughts that I didn't notice when I dozed off.Jamal" What do you think has come over the alpha?" I heard a feminine voice speak from within the kitchen.I was going to fetch myself, a cup of water when I heard the voice. It's been quite a while since I last punished rumour mongers, wouldn't hurt to take a break and entertain myself." What do you mean?" Another feminine voice asked." Oh please Hapita. Don't act like you haven't noticed the
DerrickHow dare they? We had chosen not to attack them and now they were attacking us?I had decided to get out of bed early enough to work on the scrolls that I had received when Jamal had worked into my office looking angry. For a minute I thought he had come to fight me over Anubis' condition but when he greeted, I knew it was for a different cause. Jamal never shows respect to anyone he was mad at. He explained the sudden attack of the moon chasers pack on our pack. Since my aunt's visit, they had situated themselves around our territory. I'm sure they had planned to strike an attack on the night that we were supposed to attack them and ever since the plan failed, they had refused to leave. I knew my that old hag had something up her sleeves when she visited. She had never liked Amigo even when she was younger, why should she feel sympathy for him now that he was dead? I was the only one she was nice to but that didn't last for too long. After my father had died, she tried to
Border town; Khloe and Michael's former residence.The Smith's mansion.Mrs JohnsonRichardson didn't sleep all night, none of us did. How would we have when two very important people to us were dead?The next morning, I was already awake. Hours before the alarm clock rang. I got out of my bed and went to check on Richardson; he was still in bed." Look baby, I know you're hurting. We are both hurting, but we have to be strong. We don't know if the detective got the right body." " Why would he even lie to us in the first place? You gave him a clear description of Michael and even a picture. How could he have mistaken Michael for someone else?"Richardson was right. I was scared deep down. Too scared to go to the mortuary as planned but I had to. Seeing is believing and until I saw Michael's and Khloe's dead bodies, I refuse to believe the news of their death." I know you're discouraged but at least come with me to the mortuary."" I think it's better that we just do a burial for him
Border town; Khloe and Michael's former residence.The Smith's mansion.Mrs Johnson" Uhm.. Let me get that." Richardson said, looking nervous as he walked to the door.I quickly washed my hands and walled briskly to the living room.The look on the detective's face was unpleasant, his team's was even worse. He sighed deeply before greeting;"Good day Mrs Johnson."" What's going on?" I asked rather aggressively, ignoring his greeting. He was holding a big brown envelope. It couldn't be money in there, could it? He probably noticed the look on my face as I continually stared at the envelope. He decided to tell me about it's content even before I ask; " It's Michael's belongings in here."" Michael. You mean?"" Michael, Michael your son."" Wait, you found him?!"" Yes we found him."I was baffled by his reply. Why the hell did he sound so gloomy telling me that he had found Michael. Bigger question; Where was Michael?" So where's he?!" I was too joyous to even ask why his countenance
KhloeI wept as I heard the aggressive moaning coming from the alpha's Chambers. So Nadia was truly his mate.After Jenner had gone, I felt so heart broken that the alpha could have sexual intercourse with me when he already had someone who could satisfy him. I found it difficult to believe, I didn't want to believe that the alpha could be so callous so, I decided to find out myself.Each time I stood up, I felt scared of being caught tip-toeing to the alpha's Chambers at such a time. But then, how much worse could it get? I was already a slave here and was doomed to eternity with the werewolves. So, I let my curiosity get the better part of me.My heart sank when I saw the rose petals that have been left consciously for someone to trail. My fears increased when I saw the trail end at the shut door of the alpha's Chambers. So it was true then.I don't even know why I felt this way. I couldn't explain the feelings I felt inside of me; hurt, pain, anger? I felt hurt over the fact that t
Writer's POVDerrick angrily left the healer's.He shifted into his wolf form and ran all the way to the mansion.He didn't bother shifting back once he arrived, he just went up to his chambers.Once he reached the stairs, he paused. He felt a familiar presence. He smelled orange and peaches. His mate! That was her scent. He had missed her so much. She was a turned wolf. He let her visit her human parents whenever she missed them but she usually overused this privilege.She had been gone for more than two blue moons without calling nor texting. She went when she liked and returned when she pleased. Nevertheless, Derrick still liked her so, he never bothered much. All that mattered to him was she returned.He shifted back to his human form when he got to the hall. He could see rose petals leading to the room. Smiling, he followed them.He pushed the door open, the lights were unlit. He was greeted by the strong scent of his mate, mixed with the perfume she had poured in the corners of
Derrick The healer frowned at our action; " Her health is critical. She might not have made it if left unconscious for even a minute more. The chain on her ankle didn't just prevent her from using her Powers, it drained her of it. Even if the chain is taken off, it would try a long while before she recovers. She should be well taken care of else, she loses the baby and of course you know how females of the royal families are when they lose their children. I have cooked some herbs for her. You should also try some human medicines for her but they should be prescribed by medical personnels only."I can't believe Anubis was pregnant, I have been hurting Amigo's child all this while.Oh my goddess! How could I have forgotten about my brother's mate?Ever since I passed the verdict, I have never went to check on her. Amigo must be very angry with me, even in his death.I thought my judgement was for the best. I never knew it was going to be so critical. What if Jamal hadn't come in time?
Khloe" What the fuck are you doing on my bed?!" The lady screamed at me. I only stared at her. I said nothing to her. I still laid on the alpha's bed covering nothing but my breasts. I tried to guess her position in the pack. She must be royalty because of how disrespectfully she could utter the alpha's name. She should be his sister from somewhere maybe." What the fuck are you still doing on Derrick's bed? Get up and get out now." She said with threatening eyes.The color of her eyes changed and part of her face too. Wait, she's a werewolf too? I never knew werewolves could also possess such power to shift only parts of their bodies.Seeing that she was in no mood for jokes, I stood up with great pain as I crawled out of the alpha's Chambers.It had been so difficult for me to put on the clothes I wore the previous day. I crawled away as fast as I could so I wouldn't incur the wrath of another werewolf.I collapsed on my bed once I had taken off my clothes. This was my life now;
KhloeI woke up with aches all over my body.I slowly opened my heavy eye lids, my vision was blurry. I looked around the room I was in. I touched my steaming hot head trying to remember how I got here.Just then, the images from last night flooded my mind. My eyes welled up with tears as I remembered everything the alpha did to me last night. He killed Michael like an animal right before me. He wasn't even the least merciful to my best friend. The pain in my heart increased when I remembered that he died trying to save me but eventually, I couldn't even be saved. He had a chance to walk freely away from death but instead, he chose to stay and fight for me but all I could do was watch him get killed by that monster. I couldn't even offer any form of help but remain on the wet muddy ground, watching him get torn into pieces bit by bit by the alpha.As if that was not enough, he still punished me and he did it in the most painful way. Tears continually flowed freely from my eyes at the
Khloe" Let go of me you monster!!" I continued yelling and hitting his chest as I threw my legs in the air.He took his wolf form as it started to rain. I found myself on his back as he ran through the forest.I held unto him, dragging his fur tightly so I won't fall off. He kept on running, not caring about my safety on his back.We soon got back to the pack and surprisingly, there wasn't a single soul outside, not even the Sentinels.He ran into his Chambers and threw my onto the bed by turning over. The once white bed spreads turned wet with mud and dirt all over it." How could you have been so wicked? You already trapped me here as your slave, you could have just let him go." I went on screaming at him, overlooking how angry he looked.He walked to me in his wolf form. As soon as it was on the bed, it started tearing off my clothes violently with it's teeth." What are you doing? Get off of me! Leave me alone! Somebody help me!" I screamed at him, hitting it with my muddy hands
