Luna's Pov

It has been a week! A week since my master has awakened. A week since I have had to endure his endless bullying as well as the sharp tongue of his, what is she again? His sidekick? Friend? Bootlicker? Sheesh! They all fit perfectly and she is just as evil as he is. You know what? Scratch that! She is much more evil. While he was still behind bars, I had thought she was bad, but now that he is free, I was finding out that back then was her being nice.

Today, Indrik had sent me on an errand to go get, what did he call it again? "Wolf spit?"

"Wolf spurt!" Jamil corrected with a grunt as he dropped a bale of hay in a brown horse's feeding trough. The smile he had on his face as he answered my question made me scowl at him. This wasn't a joke! He was wearing a sleeveless whitewashed vest that might have once been yellow above short trousers. His long hair was held in place with a clip allowing him to work without it getting in the way. His body glistened with sweat as he checked on the horses, walking back and forth between the rows. One of the things I had found out during my stay here was that Jamil took it upon himself to check on the horses, every now and then. Even choosing to take them for a ride sometimes. With someone like him, the stable boy would be very glad to have his job. I wished my master could be like that. But then again, I knew why he was always so moody and I wasn't about to help him.

"Why does Indrik need that?" He continued, still focused on the horses.

"To further frustrate my life, I guess?" I muttered. "He said he needed it to help him feel better. Apparently, his wounds still itch." My voice was bitter as I kicked a lone straw that had fallen by my feet.

He had been rubbing the mane of a beautiful white mare when he turned toward me. "Another fight, huh?" He questioned to which I huffed.

"More like bullying. Did I ever tell you that your friend is a jerk?"

"Only about a million and a half times." He replied, his lips curling.

Being the only one person who seemed to not hate my guts in this entire pack, I had grown closer to Jamil over the course of the past few days, partly because I always needed his help in finding the strange things that I was being asked to find all the time and partly because I needed him to show me the path that could take me out of this pack. I had no luck with the second because no matter how friendly Jamil might be, he wasn't going to expose his pack's secrets to me. The other though, had been working out pretty well. Like today for instance. Indrik had spent most of the day sleeping like he always did which meant I had had a moment's respite. Tired from not being allowed to sleep because the breeze from the window had not been enough so I had had to create more air, with my arms. I had made my way to my room and drifted off without any delay.

The next time I awakened was to Indrik standing over me, glaring at me with his arms folded. Somehow, he suddenly lost his strength as he stumbled back to his room. Next thing I knew, he was asking me to get him some wolf spurt so he could feel better while reminding him that I was the reason for his weakness. "What kind of maid left her poor, weak master and went to sleep instead?" I had been about to remind him with the worst choice of words that he was neither poor, nor weak but I thought better of it.

With that, I had been forced out, with the sun starting to sink behind the horizon. No description, no explanation of what this strange name represented, just an order to be carried out without any complaint. I had been stranded until I remembered Jamil and here I was.

"Remember the plant I showed you the other day? The one that no pack member other than the doctor is allowed to touch?" I nodded, starting to hate Indrik even more. "That's it." He confirmed my fear, his eyes lighting up with a mischievous gleam.

"So, I have to see the doctor if I want to get it? Great!" I really wanted to tear my master apart this instant.

"On the bright side, the leaf does indeed cure a lot of ailments so, it is not a wild goose chase." He winked.

"Has he always been this bothersome?" I blurted.

"Well, no! Indrik is and can be sweet most of the time."

I glared at him. "I'm sure he is. Just like Blaire is!" I shot back.

He chuckled. "Indrik just happens to be going through a tough time right now but hey, he brought you here. He wouldn't have done that if he hated you. Perhaps, I should tell you a little story that might help you understand him more?"

I arched my brows but did not say anything which he took as a yes.

"Great! Now, how about we move along as we talk? You still have a long way to go if you are going to complete your quest. How would you like a ride?" He asked as he opened a stable door and led Lea out.

"Lea!" I called excitedly, then ran over to her and rubbed her mane. He fitted her and brought her along as we picked our way out of the stables.

We walked in silence for a little while before he finally cleared his throat. "So, Indrik..."

"Indrik!" I gasped, my eyes widening as I stared at what was happening before me.

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    Giving Up!

    Luna"What have you done? How could you let this happen? The greatest evil has been born! Pain, death, destruction like never before has just been unleashed because of you. The world will never be the same. You shall atone for your sins. Begone! And I shall never see your face again nor you, mine until you have made everything right." I shuddered at the memory. My memories from the...that time were becoming fuzzier the longer time passed but somehow, that memory never faded. I could not remember the face of the person who had spoken. Not even where the person had spoken but I could never forget the words nor the panic, pain and sorrow that had filled me and even now still pulsed in every single vein in my body. Looking down at Indrik as he stabbed at his food, I wondered if all that was happening was indeed my fault. Maybe I really deserved to be here. Even worse, I wondered if I did not deserve to be here, being the recipient of his gratitude like I was some saviour when I was infa

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    Told A Slave

    Indrik"You would never be more than a bottom feeder." The words would not stop ringing in my ears, burning into my brain with searing heat. I clasped my hands over my ears and screamed, tears gushing down my face. A group of people walked past me staring at me like I was crazy but I couldn't care any less. What was I thinking? I would never be more than a disappointment, an Alpha's son who was born without a wolf. To think that I had thought that getting a master and having her unlock my wolf would change my fate. I laughed drily. Just how much more stupid could I be? I would never be more than a failure however hard I tried. Another group of people walked past me and though my senses were too clouded for me to see their expressions, I knew instinctively that they were sniggering at the miserable me. I had left the palace behind and was now wandering through the meandering streets of the pack, hardly aware of where I was going. Every so often, I ran into someone who hissed at me to

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    A Bottom Feeder

    IndrikBeta Green fixed me with a cold stare that caused my smiles to wilt as I was consumed with a premonition that he was about to deliver a very bad news. "What did you just say?" He asked the question like I had just suggested that we pull down the palace and build a cattle shed in its place. I wasn't going to be so easily discouraged though. It had taken me so much time, effort and sacrifices to get here. I wasn't about to be forced to give up by a tone, however cold it might sound. "I said...""I know what you said!" He snapped in irritation. "I was hoping you wouldn't repeat it so I wouldn't have had to tell you this but it is obvious that you are still so young and naive. Perhaps, I ought to enlighten you."My heart sank to the bottom of my stomach as every muscle in my body strained to run, to avoid the verdict he was about to pass. But at the end, I had to stop and listen to what he had to say even if everything within me warned me that I would not like it. He smiled warm

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    Hope

    IndrikMessage or not, I decided that my thoughts were going to drive me crazy if I didn't snap out of them so I did just that. I pushed away from the window and got out of bed. Looking around the slowly lightening room, I was rather disappointed to find that Luna was not in the room. I had been hoping to be able to have a word or two with her. I decided I couldn't wait and made my way to her room only to get the same result. The unmade state of her bed hinted that she had left the room in a hurry, (what else was new?) which meant I couldn't expect to see her for a while.I paced around for a while, the memories still haunting me until I finally got the ingenious idea to go to an old friend of mine. Now, when I mention friend, you might think I am referring to a childhood friend that I had forgotten about but no, I can count the number of friends I have on a single hand. By friend, I meant the library, one of the many places I used to visit in a bid to both lose and discover myself in

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    What Will You Do?

    IndrikDo powers cause nightmares? I highly doubt that or Blaire would have spent every other day screaming from her sleep. Or perhaps, they were just signs of my body getting used to its new heightened senses. Again, I doubted that. Those dreams had looked and felt very real. Like something that had happened, or worse, something that was about to happen. I placed an arm under my jaw as I tried to recall my dream. The mere thought of relieving that nightmare scared the marrows out of me but I decided that I had to face it to know what the problem really was. In my dream, I had seemed to be watching the pack from the hill that was just behind the royal training grounds. Once upon a time, that had been my favorite spot for hanging out. In my dream, or was it a nightmare? The scenery had rolled out before me in the same way it had the last time I had been there. There had been the palace to the one side closed off with high enough walls as to prevent me from seeing past them. Then ther

  • Tale Of A Cursed Alpha    Most Important

    VeronicaPain did not seem like the right term for what I was feeling right now. Every single bone in my upper body seemed to have been pummelled to powder leaving me paralyzed. Yet, hearing Indrik's voice energized me as I tried my best to open my eyes. My body protested against the effort as my head started to pound. I shut my eyes again before I could focus on the person standing above me. Everywhere seemed to have gone pitch dark. I could have sworn that there was still some light when that bitch had shoved me to my back. "Oh, Indrik! Look at what she has done to me. You have to make her pay." I whimpered as I tried to open my eyes again without success. My eyes seemed to have filled up with my own blood which was not a very fun experience. "The nerve of this bitch. Let me go. I am not done with her." That was Blaire's voice. I wondered if Indrik was the one holding her back. No, that was wrong. He should be helping me, not her. For the umpteenth time, I tried to open my eyes ag
