The hustling and bustling of the human world never ceases to captivate Zayne as he visits San Francisco one more time. He gasped at the fascinating cars, the colourful billboards and the long driveway.It's been years since he last visited the human world, and he had come again to visit his old friend.“Oceanview’s club.” He muttered to himself with a smile. He grabbed a cellphone and threw a call across to someone who seem special judging by how happy he looked.“If you are a minute late, you will pay a huge fine for that.” He said to his friend. He slid his phone into his back pocket and took in a deep breath.“Time for some enjoyment.” He stretched his arms and yawned. “All these years as the Alpha of the red moon pack has nearly made me forgot the life and joy of this part of the world.” As he walked into the club, over ten beautiful ladies ran to him.“Zayne! It's been years, why don't you visit us more often?” Marie, the most beautiful lady in the bar said to him. He stared int
“Didn't you…just say you rejected your mate?” Frederick stuttered in shock and sprang up from his seat, twitching his eyelids in confusion.“Calm down, man. You don't understand.” Zayne sighed. He raised his hand at Frederick and tried to get some words out of his mouth, which seemed stuck deep down his throat.He grabbed the bottle of wine and took a quick shot.“This is what happened basically….she was mated to me, but I rejected her; now the moon goddess wants me to have her back, or else…” he paused, his lips quivering, while he blinked frantically.“Or else what?” Frederick asked him, furrowing his brows as he tried to make sense of Zayne's explanation.“Or else every single soul in the blue moon pack would die!” Zaybe mumbled, throwing his hands into the air. Frederick staggered, he opened his mouth but was closed back by the intensity of shock that channeled through his nerves.“What?” That was the only word that could escape his throat. He wore a more confused look, he had nev
“Do you really want to work with Marie? That woman might be devilish, what if she is playing pathetic? She is a woman of unknown origins, remember.” Frederick said in a single breath as they walked out of the bar.Zayne suddenly stopped in his steps and sighed;“There is only one way to find out though, and we have to find it out ourselves,” Zayne replied to him. He patted Frederick's shoulders and hopped into Frederick's car.Frederick stood by the car's door, staring at Zayne.“Do you really want to stand all day staring at me? C’mon, let's visit Sara as fast as possible.” Zayne said to Frederick. Frederick sighed and also hopped into the car, driving at top speed.The first half of the journey was as silent as a graveyard; each one of their minds was occupied with various thoughts.“Do you think the old man will believe us?” Zayne asked as they wheeled into the compound.“Well, didn't you say you know some things which are enough to prove your claims? Or were you just bluffing?” Fr
“Are we still going there?” Frederick asked Zayne. He guessed the message he received should probably be reacted to Marie's issue.Zayne took in a deep sigh, nodded his head, and faced Sara. He curved his lips beautifully, displaying an affectionate smile.“How about you stay in a hotel for some moment? I have something important to attend to, and I will be back as soon as I am done.” Zayne asked her, slowly grabbing her hand and rubbing it gently.Sara thought for a while before nodding.“Not a bad idea, I will be fine.” She replied, trying to wear a smile. Even though she could feel the mate pull drawing her closer to Zayne, she still somehow felt empty, as if there was a space in her heart that Zayne's presence could not fill.“Why should she stay in the hotel? If you don't want her to stay with the old man because of her identity, she could stay in my place for the main time.” Frederick offered. Sara wondered how Frederick knew she was a werewolf. Although she found him a bit stra
“knock knock” Marie's eyes darted towards the door, a huge silence swept across the room, as they all stared into each other's eyes.“I will get it.” Marie whispered and walked briskly towards the room. She gently opened the door and stuck her head outside. One of her boss’s girls stood in front of her, giving her a cold sharp smile. Marie's eyes widened and her heart raced as she identified the girl.“Miss Marie, it's time. Miss Angela said you should meet up with her now.” The girl said and turned to leave.She suddenly halted in her steps. Maire could see her lips spread in a wide smile.“Also, you don't want to keep those men waiting, do you? You know they can't wait to have you on their beds tonight…as their sex toy that you are.” The lady snapped and walked away.Marie sighed. Slammed the door shut and faced Zayne and Frederick.“Who is she?” Zayne inquired, sensing a hint of grief on her face.“One of Angela's girls. She came to remind me of the time.” Marie replied and walked
“Yeah…you all heard that right. I want her, for a hundred million dollars.” He muttered, his lips carving sideways as he plastered a mischievous smile onto his face. He walked majestically, climbed the stage, and approached Marie.He buried his face into her neck and sniffed at her scent.“Lovely, what a nice way to spend the night.” His mischievous smile turned into a beaming one. He rolled his eyes all over Marie, bit his lower lips and swallowed hard.“I have always wanted every part of you in my arm, guess you can't escape it now.” He whispered into Marie's ear and laughed out loud. Marie forced herself back to her feet, threw the man a disgusting look, and silently hissed.The man was the well-known Armando. The wealthiest man in the city, who could easily get anything that he wants at his fingertips. The laws were made and bent for him, his presence only would make politicians bow and beg for mercy.“Master Armando. You needn't have come by yourself. You could have just put a ca
“Why did you stop me, Frederick? I could have pulled some teeth off that man's jaw just now.” Zayne hissed, rolling his eyes all around as he exuded a sharp not breath.“C’mon! You think it's that easy? Those men were armed, Zayne. If I had not stopped you, your head would probably be lying on the floor right now. I guess you don't know who Armando is.” Frederick mumbled. “Alright. So, what's the plan now? I want to leave here as soon as possible, meet with Sara and take her back to the red moon pack. It will soon be the next full moon and you know my presence is mandatory.” Zayne chipped in. The arena was already getting dull and scanty, most of the people had left already except for some hard drunkards who were still savoring their drinks.Frederick moved closer to Zayne, inched near his ear and whispered;“We will ambush Angela. She normally walks with two bodyguards, with our wolves’ strengths, we should be able to take them down. Then we can save Marie and get the money to ourse
Marie, who had been silent throughout the ordeal slowly alighted the car, wearing a wide grin on her face.She walked towards Zayne, smiled at him and bent beside Angela's cold body.She took a deep breath, and ran her fingers on her face;“You used to care so much about money, that our lives were nothing to you. You thought you could always use us as your money making machine,” she paused, shaking her head slowly.“You would never have thought that a day like this would befall you.” She continued before letting out a sigh.She stood up and faced Zayne.“Thank you so much, I am very grateful for your help.” She bowed slightly and smiled at him.“You are welcome, and don't feel too grateful, she is very useful to me, even in her dead body.” Zayne giggled. Both Frederick and Marie wondered what he meant as they furrowed their brows.“Useful to you? You haven't told me how.” Frederick said, his brows raised in confusion. Zayne glanced at him, smiled, and then patted him on his shoulders.
“Did he know I added the pill? The color remained the same, and nothing about the odor changed. Oh no…did it taste different?” Various thoughts flashed through Violet's mind as she darted her eyeballs around. She suddenly began to feel so hot despite the cool breeze that blew inside.“Violet?” Killian called out, causing Violet to raise her eyes sharply at him.“I…I don't understand what you are talking about, my Alpha. I didn't add anything to the water.” Violet stuttered, rubbing her fingers against one another.“Well…” Killian paused, dropped the cup on the table and smiled.“The water felt so refreshing, and it calmed my boiling nerves. That's why I asked you the question. Don't overthink it.” He said to her calmly. Violet took a deep breath, bit her lower lip and sighed.“You can leave.” Said Sara as she dismissed Violet. She turned to Killian, looking so perplexed as she was unsure of what just happened.“What happened just now? Did she truly mix something with the water?” Sara
“My Alpha, are we going to ignore the moon priestess warnings? I am sure she said those words for no reason.” One of the elders chipped in during the council meeting with Killian.Killian sighed, brushed his hair with his hand and shook his head.“It troubles me also. I don't understand what she meant by those words she said to Sara. Or does she imply that we use Sara as a sacrifice? That can't be possible.” Another elder added after Killian took a while to respond.Killian glanced at the two elders, they were elder Maxwell and elder Keon. Both of them had opposed him violently when he wanted to ascend the throne as the alpha of the pack.It's not surprising to him if they were actually pressuring him to use Sara as a sacrifice.“I don't think that's what she meant, elder Keon. There is something you guys don't know, and I am ready to tell you now.” Killian paused to take a deep breath. He tightened his grip around his chair, realizing the weight of what he was about to say.“Sara is
“Mother, I thought you died. How have you been all these while? You’ve suffered.” Zayne cried, he placed his mother on a sofa and sat beside her.Calypso, Zayne's mother grabbed his hand, stroked it gently and smiled. Zayne had ordered the maids to clean her up and make her refreshed.In her current state, she looked nothing less than a beautiful maiden in mid-twenties.“Don't blame yourself my son. I also didn't expect to survive the huge fire. Luckily, I was saved by a young man who took me out of the pack. Probably due to the shock, I lost my memories and just regained them weeks ago.” She explained to him. Zayne brimmed widely as he listened to Calypso's talk. He nodded his head, grabbed a bottle of wine and poured some for Calypso.“I won't forgive Killian for making you pass through that. He will pay for his sins.” Zayne uttered, clenching his fists together while Calypso instantly held his hand and tightened it even more.“Yes son, you should avenge me. The red moon pack and th
“Really? You don't want to call me Zayne?” Zayned asked with a smile. He turned over to his left side so he could stare straight at Betty.“I mean…everyone calls you Zayne, I just want to be unique.” Betty hummed, she but his lower lip, wore a little frown that would make Zayne agree to her request.Zayne sighed, laid on his back while he stared blankly at the ceiling. Betty, upon seeing she got no response from Zayne stood up and placed her hand on Zayne's bare chest.“What are you thinking?” She inquired.“Vincent.” Zayne replied to her, his face was expressionless as he mentioned the name.“What?” Betty asked, her face crawling up in confusion.Zayne's emotionless expression suddenly disappeared as a warm smile formed in his lips;“Didn't you want a unique name for me? You just reminded me of my mother. She was the only one in the world that called me Vincent, she never called me Zayne. And I also remember the scar that was right on her forehead” He explained to her. Betty slowly w
“What do you think of what the moon priestess said? Her words somehow scare me?” Sara uttered as she laid on Killian's arm, gazing at the full moon, and the shining little stars.Killian tilted his head sideways, his lower lip curled up as a smile crept on his lips.“I feel like she just said that to intimidate you, she was probably joking.” Killian replied to her. Sara snorted, her brows furrowed in confusion while she pouted her lips.“It doesn't feel like that. She seemed so serious when she delivered the message, and something tells me that it's important I listen to her.” She sighed. Killian gently sat up, pulled Sara into his embrace while he slowly rubbed her hair.“Don't be afraid. I am here. I failed to protect you the last time, I assure you that nothing will happen to you again.” Killian assured her with a soft, yet firm voice. He slowly dragged his hand down her head and rested it on her belly.“Our…our child. How's it?” Killian stuttered, his head hitting hard as he dread
“Give us your blessings, moon priestess. We’ve accepted our mate bond, and thankfully, the prophecy can be reversed.” Zayne smiled at Betty as he said to the moon priestess.The moon priestess nodded her head, walked towards Betty and smiled.“Betty, right?” She inquired, slowly grabbing Betty's injured leg and applied some whitish cream on it.“Yes, moon priestess. I fell in love with Zayne at a glance, and I can say that I want to spend the rest of my life with him.” Betty replied to the moon priestess who simply nodded her head without looking at her.The moon priestess took a deep breath, and glanced at Zayne.“It's done. Her leg should be perfectly healed in three days.” She stated, packing her stuff back into the bag.“Thank you moon priestess. It's our honor to have you here.” Zayne responded, still smiling at Betty.The moon priestess looked at Betty for a while, before a worried expression formed on her face.She seemed to give off a mixture of auras, one seemed calm and rela
“My Alpha.” Three guards bowed in front of Zayne, breathing hard as they stared at each other.“What exactly happened? Just tell me.” Zayne fired, as he brows furrowed in confusion. He leaned forward on his throne, his mind reeling for answers.“It's about Sara, my Lord.” One of the guards replied to him. Zayne jumped up from the throne as if the message had a stinging effect on his butt.“What happened to her? Didn't I tell you to drop that corpse in front of the blue moon pack?” Zayne inquired as he marched towards the men. He grabbed one of them by the chin, his hot breath brushing the face of the guard.“She…she has returned to Killian's side.” The guard stuttered, bringing his head down as he avoided Zayne's fiery gaze.Zayne staggered a few steps, he curled his fingers into a fist, clenching it so hard till his sharp fingers made a cut on his palm, causing blood to drip down his hand.He bit his lower lip, turned around and slowly walked to the throne. He sat with his head burie
Sara flung around just to see two ladies standing behind her, one was dressed in black, with a dark veil tied around her face, while the other stared at her with love, and compassion.The lady clubbed in black groaned as blood gushed out of her belly, she crashed to the wet ground, her dark red blood mixing with the rain water that flowed.“My lady.” Violet ran to Sara, hugged her as tears pumped down her eyes forcefully. She wrapped her hands around her tightly as she sobbed. Sara opened her mouth, but the words couldn't get past her throat. All these while, she had thought Violet was no more, she had thought she was the cause of Violet's death, and had blamed herself for it.“I thought you were dead, I thought I wouldn't have a master to serve anymore, but thanks to heaven, you are alive.” Violet cried. Sara lifted her hand slowly and patted Violet's back, she rolled her eyes to the dying lady that groaned softly.“Violet, who is she?” Sara asked her. Violet wiped her tears, withdre
“Wait…did you hear that?” Killian suddenly stopped, walking back into the ancestral rooms as he frantically scanned the whole area.“Hear what? I didn't hear anything” Violet asked him, also darting her eyes around, wondering what Killian was talking about.“She called me, I heard her voice. I heard her voice just now.” Killian screamed, he rushed out of the ancestral house, running towards the forest that bridged the blue moon pack from the red moon pack.“Whose voice did you hear? Who the hell called you?” Violet yelled after him, confused about Killian's strange behavior.She locked the ancestral room and ran after Killian.The clouds suddenly turned dark, accompanied by some huge lightning strikes, and violent thunders as a heavy rain threatened to pour.Nevertheless, Killian kept on running deeper into the forest. He was suddenly filled with a surge of energy, that even his injured leg couldn't hold him back.“Did you hear it also?” He asked his wolf as he ran under the dark clou
