TRISTAN'S POV

The warehouse was filled with working men by the time I got there, their boots slapping the tiled floor. I smiled at the greetings and the handshakes I gave, the respect in their eyes and the smiles on their faces. They respected me, they treated me as their king, as their leader, as somebody they looked up to.

While I was being ridiculed and disrespected in my own family home, here, I was respected. I was accorded that respect in each and every form, and most times I couldn't help it but smile. They were my subjects, all of them, and I loved the way they all treated me.

Henry was waiting outside my office when I got there, a smile on his lips.

“Boss. Good morning.”

“Good morning Henry, how are you? How's work?”

Henry nodded, slipping my key into the office and opening it for me. I entered gingerly, placing my suitcase on the table and then flopping into my chair. I turned on my laptop in the process, deciding to go through the finances of the company I had come to ca

    ORION'S POVI was tired. My efforts were yielding nothing at all, and even though I suspected my twin brother for everything that was going on, I had nothing to show for it. Absolutely nothing. I found my way back to the palace, my head low, the desperation in my eyes. I was annoyed. I wanted to find her so bad, I missed her. The fact that Elena had called me again but I had ignored her call because I had nothing to say to her. I was afraid of dashing her hopes once again, afraid of saying anything at all to her. Entering the palace, I found Logan in my room with Denver, and I could tell from the look in his eyes that he knew what I was going through, and he pitied me. “From your face, Orion, I know you don't come bearing good news.”I turned my face to the right, anger coursing through my veins. I didn't want them to see the pain, to see what was going on inside of me. I was angry, and everyday I grew even more and more bitter. I couldn't see myself making it past them without bur

    TRISTAN'S POVI was about to leave the warehouse when I heard a car drive into the grounds. Separating the blinds, I found myself looking through the window, wondering who it was. When I saw the familiar black Honda Accord, I smiled. It was my most trusted and legitimate partner so far, chief Tom. And I was happy to see him. When he came into my office, I stood up, offering my hand for a handshake. Henry was behind him, his hand in his pocket, and I could tell that he was cradling his gun.I smiled inwardly, a little bit proud. Henry was the beast right hand man I had had in years, and it showed. Even though the chief of police was now a friend, an ally and a partner, it didn't change anything. Henry still followed him into my office just to make sure that nothing went wrong, and to make sure that each and everything was in place and in order. I smiled now, grinning from ear to ear. The future of the warehouse was in safe hands. If I dropped dead at the moment, Henry was going to ma

    EMILIA'S POVI woke up, blinded momentarily by the flash of light that came from the window. Rubbing my eyes because that was the only part of my body that the handcuffs permitted me to touch, I continued rubbing my eyes until they got used to the streak of light from the window. I yawned, stretching on the bed. I remembered then where I was, and everything that had happened to me for the past month came hurling back. I was still chained, in Tristan's warehouse or dungeon or whatever he wanted to call it, and I was not sure I was getting out soon or in the meantime. At least, there was one thing I was grateful for. He had removed the brown paper bag from my face and I could move freely. He had finally gotten rid of the chair where he had me chained in for the first few weeks. I was now on a bed, and it suited me fine, it suited my needs. When Charles came into the room, I flinched slightly at the sight of his gun. He smiled, grinning from ear to ear. He was probably happy to see t

    ORION'S POVWhen I saw Elena at the airport, I noticed the bloodshot eyes and the tear streaked cheeks. It was clear that even in the plane she had been crying. It made me sad that she had left her work and taken a leave to come and find a friend that was supposed to also be at the airport welcoming her. At that moment, I felt useless and weary. Even though I had tried my best, I wasn't sure that my best was enough. If my best was enough, it would have probably led me to my girlfriend. Everyday I thought about her, and the more I did, the more sleep became difficult. To think that I had even employed a private detective, and he had been killed instead. It was crazy that even though I had done my best, my best could probably not bring back my girlfriend. “Elena.”I muttered, touching her lightly. I was unprepared for what came next because she hugged me fully, not caring if I needed the hug or was in the right frame of mind to receive it. “How've you been? There's no need to ask t

    TRISTAN'S POVI sat in my room, looking at my laptop screen. It was unbelievable. Everything was falling in place, just like I had always wanted. Tom becoming one of my partners was truly an end game. The rise in sales and profit was a beautiful thing to see. Not only were there excesses, there were more than enough. It meant that I could spend more, and I knew exactly what I wanted to spend on. It was time for me to start my campaign as the next Alpha, and even though there was supposed to be no Alpha until my father had been properly buried,I was going to start my campaign. Who was going to challenge me?I had personally nominated myself for the crown, and I felt that I had the right to do whatever I wanted as far as it came to securing the throne. I had to put more effort, and I was going to do it just the way I wanted.First of all,I knew the first people I was going to buy to gain their support. The commoners. The farmers. The regular traders. All these people had one problem o

    TRISTAN'S POVLeaving the hallway, I smiled as I managed to get out of the fix I seemed to have gotten myself into with Orion and Elena. The last thing I wanted was either of them trying to point more accusatory fingers at me. I was quick to anger even though my goods were doing well. It wasn't going to change the fact that my temperament was one to watch out for. Entering the courtroom, I observed the stares of disdain, hatred and dislike that seemed to follow me from across the room. Everyday, it seemed I was hated more. But I liked it. It meant that I was on the right side,that I was doing something right. It meant that I kept them on their toes. Smiling and deciding to tease them,I found my way to the throne, then made a move as if to sit on it. I could see the looks of surprise and anger on their faces. Even the elders weren't left out. Smiling wholeheartedly, I made my way to my chair, then sat down comfortably, watching the proceedings of the court. It was boring and I knew

  • The Alpha Twins    Chapter 104

    ORION'S POVI stared at Tristan, irritated. I could see in that moment why Elena hated him so much, why the rest of the brotherhood did. He was the worst person when it came to leadership. He was a troublemaker, and even in a setting like this, he was refusing to act according to proceedings. It irritated me that I had such an unintelligible and irritable person as a twin brother. What was he doing? Wagging a finger at me while I had the scepter? Had he forgotten that only one person was allowed to speak in the court at a time? And that was the person with the scepter? What did he think he was doing by talking continuously when he should be quiet and listen?“Great brotherhood!”The reply was firm and authoritative, and I found out that the brotherhood had always loved me and it was going to be so. If it came down to an election, I had absolutely nothing to fear. I was going to be the number one candidate for everybody in the city and the pack. Did my useless brother know this? I d

    EMILIA'S POVI ate the food that had been brought to me by one of the guards, eating slowly. I was beginning to find hope. Hope in the fact that even after Charles had been warned, the eyes with which he had looked at me looked genuine. It was something I had never thought possible. For one of the guards that were supposed to see to my suffering falling in love with me. It was crazy. I could see in his eyes that he had fallen for me badly, and even if I didn't call myself attractive most times, I could see that my body had clearly played its part so well. I finished eating, then drank the water from the glass. Even while eating, I was being chained. It was clear that Tristan wanted to make sure that I was given no freedom, that I continued to remain where I was. What had I done wrong?I had no idea. I wondered if he did at all. To me, I was being held captive because he couldn't have me and his brother had achieved things with me that he hadn't.To Tristan Ironclaw, I was a stubbor

    TRISTAN'S POV He laughed again, laughter that burnt my chest. Laughter that made me want to punch him in the stomach and hit him on the face until I drew blood. “Who knew that in a few weeks, you'll be here with me, eh? Eating leftovers, and about to be judged by a panel of Elders and your own brothers. Life is a rollercoaster, Tristan. And it's your turn to go on that ride.”I shook my head in anger when he shoved me again. “Don't push me!” I hissed angrily. “I'm in charge here, Tristan. And you're going to do as I say. Now move!”He was right. I was now underneath him. He was in charge, and there was nothing I could do. How the mighty falleth!_________ORION'S POVStanding before my brothers and the elders, I raised my hand in silence. Before me, I held the bottle that was filled to the brim with acid, which served as an evidence before the whole court that my brother, Tristan Ironclaw had been charged for the death of a dozen people and conspiracy to kill me and the rest of t

  • The Alpha Twins    Chapter 148

    ORION'S POVStaring at Rosalind, I was filled with rage. How could Tristan be so callous? How evil could he be? For him to do such a thing to his brothers meant that he could go to any length to try and destroy most of us. It meant he was willing to go to any length to destroy whoever had been standing in his way on his charge to become the Alpha. It was a good thing that he was locked up, just where he deserved to be. There were no two ways about it. “Denver!”I called out, placing my hand atop Emilia's in order to let her know that she wasn't alone. I was annoyed, but not at her. I was offended by my brother's callousness, by his lack of human empathy, sympathy and love. Being his brother at that moment was something I wouldn't even wish on my worst enemy. He was an evil man, a very callous person, and I wanted him to be paid according to how he had lived his life, according to how evil he had been. “Yes royal one.”Denver was beside me in a flash, the worry on his face mirrorin

I wanted the pleasant thoughts to continue, I didn't want them to end in any way. All I thought of was marriage with Orion Ironclaw, and how I wanted to spend the rest of my days with him. I imagined living in the palace, and I imagined our children running around. He was eventually going to be the Alpha, and I imagined him being disturbed by one or two thoughts and problems that plagued the land, and there I was, comforting him, telling him that everything was going to be alright. It was all I wanted to think about all day, it was where I wanted to be. I loved him to the moon and back, and with Tristan gone and locked up in jail, it was going to be a rollercoaster ride for all of us. I wanted us to get married immediately, because I didn't want any problems or obstacles. Because I wanted to continue be

    ORION'S POV “Good morning chef Sarah. I want to prepare something for my girlfriend. I know you guys must have already prepared a meal for the occupants of the palace, but I'd like to prepare something special. And yes, I'd like you guys to help me. But from a distance, please don't interfere.”Sarah smiled, then nodded. It was obvious that she understood where I was coming from. Most of them had heard about the showdown with Tristan, and had probably heard that he was in prison too. Nodding, I noticed a young cook who seemed disturbed by my presence. Her hands were trembling, and she was in a corner, standing as she stared at me. Smiling at her, I noticed that she averted her eyes. But I didn't take it to heart, that was the reaction of most servants when I tried to be friendly. Without skipping a beat, I decided to start preparing breakfast for Emilia before she woke up. Asking questions, I managed to find the eggs and then put them into a bowl before whisking them. Bread was wh

    ORION'S POVI stirred awake, the rays of the sun that pierced the windows blinding me monetarily. For a minute, I didn't know where I was. I stared, surprised and in clear wonderment. And then I remembered. I was in the palace, in my room. And beside me was my girlfriend, a woman that I loved and had always loved. A woman that I was ready to lay down my life for, a woman that I was ready to spend the rest of my life with. Just seeing Emilia beside me made me excited. The fact that I hadn't been this close to her in months, that we were not allowed to be close to each other because of obstacles that existed in the form of my brother and her ex boyfriend made me bitter. But all that bitterness had been transformed into love now. I no longer felt bitter towards my brother, who at that moment had been handed unto the hands of the pack by the police force. We were going to deal with him, just as our laws, rules and regulations required, while they were free to deal with the remainder of

    EMILIA'S POVI was seated on my bed watching the television when Elena called me, telling me to turn to the NBC News channel immediately. I did so, and I was shocked at what I saw on the television. Tristan Ironclaw had been arrested after he was identified as one of the most notorious criminals of the past year. I couldn't believe it. I was actually free. Him being arrested meant that I was free to go back to my lover, and I was free to go back to the palace as well. My life had been pretty messed up, filled with ups and downs, and it was eventually time for a change. I broke down and wept, still looking at the television. Tristan Ironclaw had been the worst thing to ever happen to me. And now, he was going to jail, where he was going to spend the rest of his days. The evidence against him according to the television was massive, and I found myself wondering what they had found on him. I didn't care.All I seemed to care about at that moment was that my life was finally mine agai

    ORION'S POVAs soon as they shook hands, our van drove in, and in a twinkle of an eye, I could see Tristan transform into a wolf. But I was ready. Clutching the gun that was armed with several bullets, I transformed into a wolf as well, blocking his path and tripping him as he began to run. He fell in a heap on the ground, and I pointed the gun at him. He smiled at me, a nervous smile, and I shook my head, perplexed. My twin brother was a hardened criminal. He was laughing even though death was staring him in the face. He was showing that he had no remorse for whatever he had done in the past. He was just showing everybody the type of man he was. “I should've known. Who else will be in charge of my downfall if not for my own twin brother, if not for my nemesis from day one.”“You are your own nemesis, Tristan. The evil you've done in this city is only coming back to haunt you. I am your karma, and I'm telling you right now that you should surrender and hand yourself over to the pol

    EMILIA'S POVI nodded, acknowledging at that moment that I loved listening to Orion Ironclaw speak. His voice was soothing, especially for the fact that I hadn't heard it in days. As soon as we were done discussing the matter of Tristan Ironclaw and his masked dealers agency, I proceeded to tell them that I couldn't live with Charles anymore. It was going to be better if I checked into a hotel on the outskirts of town where he would never find me. Agreeing immediately and seemingly annoyed, Orion immediately agreed to it. He wasn't going to let anything happen to me while he was alive, he swore time and time again. I entered the car while we drove to a hotel in the outskirts. There, I checked in, and Orion paid for everything, including my room service. “After all this is over, you'll be back with me in the palace as my wife. We've suffered so much, Emilia, we deserve every good thing in the world. Which is why I'm going to say we should get married as soon as possible.”I clutche

    EMILIA'S POVI had swallowed it for too long. I knew that I had tried my best, and I was supposed to move forward. At least, I was supposed to be treated as if I wasn't in a dungeon anymore. If he loved me, he was going to allow me to do what I wished. He was going to let my plans flow as smoothly as I wanted it to. “I need to go out, Charles. I've been locked in here for two weeks. You've bluntly refused to let me go out. Is this love? You say you're afraid of Tristan, but you go out everyday yourself? What does that mean?”He shook his head, then tried to touch me. I ducked immediately, then swore inwardly. Why did he keep trying to touch me? It only made my skin crawl with repulsion, and I wondered if he couldn't see it. I hated him, and he wasn't even seeing it. “You need to understand that you are fragile, Emilia. I love you, and I'm trying to let you understand that.”I shook my head angrily. This wasn't love. It was something else. I didn't deserve to be locked up like an ani
