After speaking, the man left the room. He and his colleague went away leaving the three in the house.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Lucius asked Michelle. “Was there need to involve them? You and I both know we don’t care about each other. All you wanted was the crown and you’ve got it. There is no need for us to have an intimate relationship or anything of the sort. What do you really want?”

Michelle smiled. “I want to see you miserable like I am. You can’t be happy parading your lover around and expect me to look the other side. Look here, we can either work on our relationship and try to find happiness with each other or we can both be miserable. I can let you be happy when I’m not. Given that this woman is your biggest source of happiness, I have to get rid of her. Don’t think I haven’t noticed how contented you have been since she returned.”

“Michelle, you have always been horrible to me, even before we were married. How do expect me to like you? I made a big mistake by mar

    “It is alleged that there is something going on between this young woman and alpha Lucius but we do not have enough details to decide whether that is true or not,” the man continued. “That is why we are all gathered here. We’re going to listen to all the parties and see what needs to be done because for the pack to run smoothly, the alpha and the luna need to be on fairly good terms with each other. I will start with the complainant.” He turned to look at Michelle who was seated next to Lucius near the throne at the end of the table. Emma was two chairs away from the couple.“Can you please tell us why you’re concerned about this young woman?” he asked her.“Of course, I will.” Michelle said. “This young woman came back here to seduce Lucius and take my rightful place. You may not know it but their affair started long before Lucius married me. He actually wanted to reject me as his mate so that he could be with her.” Michelle paused and looked around to observe the effect of her words

    Emma could feel sweat pooling up all lover her body. She glanced at Lucius and back to the man who had asked the question, not knowing where to start from. Thankfully, Lucius stepped in.“Miss Greenfield is my friend and you all know that. I consulted you before I attacked Alpha Axel so you know all the history. She was the one who brought my sister back to the pack and we’ve been good friends since then. I have to admit, I started to feel something for her and told her about it but she did not want to create trouble, which was why she ran away. Unfortunately, she was kidnapped by the vampire king who is trying to create a hybrid army, something I forgot to tell you about. Anyway, miss Greenfield and her friend were able to escape but did not have anywhere to go, and that’s why they decided to return here. The truth she and I are starting to develop really strong feelings but I’m married now so there’s never going to be anything between us.”“But sometimes you wish you could get rid

    Like almost everyone in the pack, Jenezel disliked Michelle, and she never bothered to hide it. The woman had sandy blonde hair and the perfect face. She was middle aged, around forty but still looked like she was in her early thirties. Her skin was soft and smooth, almost wrinkle free. She was wearing a blue suit and talking on phone by the window while Michelle waited. Michelle had arrived ten minutes prior and Jenezel had made her sit on the bench while she chatted with whoever had called her.When Jenezel finally finished, she turned with a smirk on her face. She smiled widely as she approached Michelle, looking highly pleased with herself. “I was wondering when they were going to send you over,” she began.“Good morning, miss Miller.” Michelle said, trying to be respectful. She knew that although she was the Luna, Jenezel had the power to make her life a living hell. Jenezel was that hot older unmarried woman that all the older men seemed to want. At first, Michelle had wondered

    Lucius sat at the high table overlooking at the crowded science fair. He had tried his hardest to avoid looking her away but now he couldn’t help but gaze intently at Emma as she helped a young girl who had tripped over a wire stretch her leg. His heart was racing as he watched her work with so much care written on her face. She seemed genuinely interested in what she was doing. Lucius couldn’t take his eyes off the beautiful woman even as she led the young girl out. Lucius felt disappointed that he could no longer see her. After the chaos that had been caused by the fall, the science fair was officially announced. Lucius and the other alphas followed the judges to listen to the participants. As he walked, all he was thinking about was Emma and the next time he would get a chance to talk to her. They had reached the first project when he saw her walking in, looking as beautiful as ever. His heart picked up pace again. Lucius could barely concentrate on the presentation.At the fourth

    Emma had always known that Axel would get out sooner or later but had not expected it to be so soon. Her entire body was shaking and she was glad that Lucius was with her when she received the dreadful news. Lucius continued talking with the guard for a while before he left.Emma was a mess. Her peace of mind had just been shattered and now she realised the reason for her earlier gut feeling. She knew that Axel was going to come for her before anyone else since she had engineered his downfall.“Will you please take me home?” she asked Lucius, her voice shaking.“Of course,” he said. “Home is the safest place for you right now. I’ll summon my men and we leave now. Let me instruct the rest to finish as soon as possible and get back home. Axel knows that attacking anyone in my pack will hurt me so he could go after them. I need to organize for security reinforcement.”Emma watched as Lucius went towards the tent. Two guards that had been sitting behind it stood up and waked towards him.

    Michelle pulled out the band holding her hair up and let the waves fall down her back. The sun had set and the long day was finally over for her. All day, she had been working tirelessly for Jenezel who had turned out to be very demanding. Michelle had been on her feet since morning, cooking, cleaning and attending to the older woman’s other needs. Her muscles were aching and her feet hurt from moving around so much.This is not what a luna should be doing, Michelle thought as she walked out of Jenezel’s house which was about five hundred metres away from the pack’s main household. Not everyone belonging to Summit pack lived near the pack house. Those who trusted their abilities to protect themselves and wanted more freedom and privacy lived as far as they wanted. Jenezel was one of them. She had a small two storied house which she shared with her husband.Instead of training Michelle how to be a luna which she had already done before, Jenezel had decided to use Michelle as her maid w

    During the next two days, Michelle worked diligently and did not bother anyone. She ignored Lucius who seemed surprised by her behaviour. She didn’t even say anything to Emma when she met her. Michelle behaved like the humblest person ever and the whole pack was confused. Of course most people suspected it was an act. People can change but they don’t usually change that fast.Janet was able to find an agent of Axel’s who was on a spying mission. Having learnt from Michelle, Janet used her beauty to get the information she wanted. However much she tried to make him, the man did not help her communicate with Axel. It seemed he did not trust her either. Eventually Michelle decided she would have to travel to venom pack by herself. In order to do that, she needed to get out of the pack.When she was ready to face Axel, Michelle decided to ask Jenezel for a day off for the next day. She stood at the door to Jenezel’s home office, contemplating on what she was about to do. Takin a deep brea

    “So,” she said after a while. “Am I allowed to go?”“Where are you going?” he asked after dressing up.“To venom pack, up north.”“That’s a bit far,” he commented.“Yes, that’s why I chose to run there.”“I don’t think you’ll reach there faster. Why don’t we go to the shed and you put on some clothes then I drive you to wherever you want to go.”“You’d do that for me?”He nodded. “Not for you. For me. I still need more time with you.”“You don’t understand. I have to return to my pack before nightfall. I’m under punishment and I have to be at work by morning”“We’ll find ways for you to give me enough pleasure in the time we have,” he said.“Okay, but why are you helping me?”“Why not?”“You’re a vampire.”“And?”“Your kind can’t stop terrorising us.”“Not all vampires are the same, I guess.”“Clearly.”“Alright, let’s go.”They went to the shed and she was given some stinky workmen clothes.

  • Taming The Alpha's Mate   A beautiful day

    The evening was calm. A gentle breeze carried the sweet smelling scents of different flowers, spreading it all over the garden. Emma’s heart was filled with delight as she strolled through the garden next to her favourite person. The garden was filled with daises, roses, and tulips among other flowers, creating a very colourful scene. This matched with Emma’s mood which was cheerful. With her hand in his, they walked along the cobblestone path, letting their hearts speak to each other.Lucius was telling Emma about his childhood. He narrated to her about funny adventures he and his friends had engaged in while in the garden. As he showed her different places, she felt like she was reliving his childhood with him, and it strengthened their connection.“What?” Lucius suddenly said and stopped walking. He seemed to be listening to someone via mind link. Since Emma had been integrated to the park, she was now able to mind link with other pack members. After the mating process, she and Luc

    Two days later…It was a beautiful morning. The sun rising and the atmosphere was becoming warmer each passing minute. The large dining room in the pack house was a hub of activity with many of the pack members having their breakfast. Casey and Emma were enjoying their hearty meal in one of the best tables while Michelle was in a corner downing her food as fast as she could so she could get out of there. Her position as Luna had not been officially taken away from her but everyone knew that she was no longer the alphas mate and no longer respected her. Even her former best friend Janet did not want to be associated with her. She claimed it was because Michelle tried to kill Emma, but everyone knew that she had never been a true friend to Michelle. She had been in it for the benefits which was understandable. Michelle was very hard to love.“I wonder why she doesn’t just leave,” Casey said referring to Michelle. “No one wants her here, including her family.”“Be nice,” Emma reprimande

    Emma woke up with a jolt. When he eyes shot open, she looked around the strange room which reeked of herbs and medicine. She was sweating so much that her entire blouse was wet. Her head felt heavy. She closed her eyes and thought of the last thing she remembered which was Michelle wriggling in pain on the floor. Her hand instinctively moved to her chest where there had been a wound. It had healed. She didn’t understand why Michelle had also been in pain. The only reasonable answer was that a witch had linked them so that Michelle would also die if she killed Emma. Could Casey have done it?Emma lay awake for a few minutes, not bothering to get up because she could feel that her body was still very weak. Whatever Michelle had used to try to murder her must have been very strong. She was about to drift off to sleep when she heard voices. The people they belonged to where still far because she couldn’t make them out clearly.Suddenly, a sweet-smelling scent wafted into the room. It was

    Lucius didn’t like having to cut down indigenous trees but the pack needed more land for a meat processing plant. The town was not developing fast enough and they had decided to start industrializing more as a development strategy. There were a lot of untapped opportunities that he was sure would improve the lives of his pack and the neighbouring packs if implemented. The humans were progressing very fast and it was best for them to do the same. If they stayed backward for long, the humans would try to come and take over the land.Lucius was not afraid of what the humans would try to do to them. He was worried there would be too much unnecessary bloodshed. If they developed their town, the humans would not see the need to try to do it for them.Lucius was talking to some council members under a tent when he started to feel a kind of pain he had never experienced before. He almost screamed out when it hit but he had to stay strong since he was the alpha. Under no circumstances was he a

    The house was empty and quiet. It was also fairly cool. Michelle was happy to lead the guard to one of the rooms on the ground floor. She had linked her arm with his and that was enough for him to forget all about his job and follow her like a puppy. As soon as they entered the room, Michelle started kissing him. He kissed him back, going fast as if he had been craving her lips for the longest time possible. The kiss disgusted Michelle because she had no interest in the man but she had to bear with it. She was a woman on a mission and this time, she didn’t want to stop until she had achieved her goal. With Emma in the pack, Michelle knew that she would never be happy no matter how she tried. Soon, Lucius would divorce her and that would turn her into a ‘nobody’. The whole pack would no longer be afraid to make fun of her in public. She knew they humiliated her in private, saying all kinds of mean things behind her back. Because she was the luna, they could never say it to her face. I

    When Michelle heard Lucius leaving in the middle of the night, she knew he was going to see Emma. She felt the bile in her throat and got up from the bed. She went to her closet and opened a jewellery box. Underneath a necklace was a key. She removed the key and went back to the bedroom. Squatting, she inserted the key into the bottom drawer and twisted it. She pulled the drawer open and stared at the box inside it. Grabbing the box, Michelle stood up straight and went to put it on the bed. She sat down and opened the box.She removed the dagger inside it and stared at it. There was a vial of a certain poison in the box as well. Michelle placed the dagger back in the box and returned it to where it had come from before locking up. This time, she didn’t take the key back to the closet. She placed it under the mattress.Michelle went back to bed and pulled out her phone. She went to the contacts and deleted Axel’s number. She couldn’t believe that Axel had been brought down by Jack Carv

    When Emma woke up, she was lying on a bed and it was dark. Slowly, the memory of Lucius injecting her came to her mind. She sat up and looked around the dark room. It was better than most of the rooms in the pack house. Where was she? She slowly got up from the bed and went to the window. She pulled the curtains aside and looked outside. She was not shocked to notice she was in the cottage Michelle had almost killed her in. she sighed and went to turn on the light before trying to open the door. Emma’s heart started racing when she realised that it was locked. She banged on it as loud as she could.“Hello? Who’s there?” she yelled on top of her voice. “Get me out of here!”A few seconds later, she started hearing footsteps. She went back to the window, only to find that it was boarded there were three metallic vertical rods that had been used to board it up. She could not escape through the window.She realised the footsteps had stopped at the door but there was no movement to open th

    She stopped and watched as the door opened. It was like time had frozen as she watched the man she loved strut into the room followed by an equally handsome man. Their striking appearances commanded attention and changed the atmosphere in the room. They were both tall with broad shoulders, wearing black suits. Lucius’s jawline complimented his sharp features increasing the magnetic charm of his blue eyes. Every step he took was effortless and graceful.Emma glanced at the man walking beside Lucius. He was impressively tall and looked very athletic. Unlike Lucius, this man had long, wavy hair that cascaded down the sides of his face. “This is she?” the man said, approaching Emma. “You were right. She’s perfect.”Lucius stopped right in front of Emma who was yet to move because she didn’t know what to do. He went closer and pulled her into his arms. They remained like that for a minute. When he pulled away, the other man had gone to the table.Lucius looked into Emma’s eyes. “Why?”“Guy

    A few minutes later, Emma was trudging through the silent forest with five strange men. She had pleaded countless times for them to reveal the person behind their operation but they refused. The other three men who had shot Axel and his counterparts had joined the two who had captured her and were chatting away about things related to their pack whose name she hadn’t been told. She didn’t dare run from the men because it was pointless. They would catch her within a minute. Besides, annoying them would not make things better for all those involved.When they came out of the forest, two black cars were waiting. Having given up on escape, Emma got into one. She could only hope she was not being taken to someone who hated her like Michelle. She sat in the backseat with one of the men and looked through the tinted glass as the car sped towards the city.The human city was bustling with activity, very different from most of the places she was used to.
