Lucien

My phone rang out and I didn't bother to check the caller ID. 

I was too deep in work and my hands were so busy with these files. We were doing a lot of sorting of papers to send them out to other packs who were willing to come into an alliance with her. 

I had been out here for hours, making sure that everything was going as planned. Nothing had to get missing, no matter what. 

Another ring suddenly came in and in annoyance, I wiped my hands on my pants and finally answered. 

“What?” I asked in such a way that the person would know that he or she was disturbing me. 

“Alpha,” a voice on the other end called out. “This call is from the hospital.”

Everything inside me froze. The hospital? Damn, then this has to be related to Irene. I hope nothing was wrong.

    Irene“You think I’m afraid of you? I keep telling you countless times that I'm not afraid of you,” I scoffed, folding my arms as I glared at him.Lucien stood there with his grey eyes that were dark with something I could not tell.I knew that Lucien would be able to do something unbelievable but I didn't know what to expect. Either way, I prepared my mind.He tilted his head and the corner of his lips twitching, as if amused. I wonder what was funny to him.Was it the fact that I had his blood or the fact that I was challenging him?“I could end this right now like you always wanted,” he informed me, reaching into his belt.A glint of silver caught my eye and before it could register in my brain that what I was staring at was a dagger, I swallowed hard.I didn't

    LucienI needed to stop thinking about her and now, it felt like I had been intoxicated by her.But the moment I left the elders' meeting that night, my feet moved on their own, leading me toward the hospital to see the lady who was about to destroy my mental state.The meeting with the elder's had been long, filled with endless discussions about the state of the pack, the rival pack trying to gain ground in the North, and some other trivial issues that made it difficult for me to think properly.Yet, despite all the pressing issues, it was Irene’s face that filled my thoughts.Every time I tried to focus on anything else, her face, her eyes, her scent, the softness of her lips against mine flooded my mind, blocking everything else from coming.I clenched my jaw and let out a breath, disappointed and irritated with myself by what

    IreneI didn't wait for anyone the moment I was able to escape. I didn't care about Lucien’s feelings and how confused he would be when he found out that I disappeared .The fun fact? He had just seen me shortly before I supposedly vanished into thin air.I kept running in the night as I rushed to get my brother out of the terrible place he was locked up in.I didn’t stop for once and I didn’t look back.My legs carried me faster than I had ever ran before and I could hear my heartbeat roaring greatly in my ears.I had to get my brother. I had to save him before the guards or Lucien got alerted that a captive was missing.I got to the underground cells in no time because of my speed and they were just as I remembered.They were old and damp.

    Lucien“Irene! Irene!!” I called her name multiple times as I shook her body and my heart could not stop racing fast because of what just happened.Did she just collapse?No, this has to be a joke! One moment, she was staring at me with that defiant fire in her eyes, and the next, her body gave way.Luckily for me, I was able to catch her before she hit the ground and that was a great relief.My anger which was sharp and burning just moments ago, evaporated the second her knees gave way.My heart slammed against my ribs, and for a moment, I forgot why I was even furious.All I could see was her fragile body which was utterly defenseless.Her body was still warm but her breathing was not normal. Something was definitely wrong somewhere and I had no idea what it was.&nbs

    IreneThat was so cunning of him. He knew what exactly he was doing and if he thought he was going to put me in a tight spot, then he was only joking. I knew what I wanted and it wasn't him. I was also not going to fall into any trap prepared for me by him. I lifted my chin, meeting Lucien’s piercing eyes which went straight into me. “Behead me,” I dared him and my eyes didn't blink. He didn’t react at first and the look on his face was far from normal, but his grip on the chair’s armrest tightened. Of course, he was not expecting that from me. He thinks I was one of those random ladies who would plead with him to mark me. I didn't need his mark on my skin. What did I need such a silly thing for?“Excuse me?” he asked and his voice became dangerously low. I swallowed hard but refused to show any sign of weakness. Why was he bent on me repeating myself? “You heard me, Lucien. If marking me is the only way you would let me go, then kill me,” I repeated. This time my voice was

  • The Alpha and the traitor's daughter    Chapter 55

    LucienI was unable to overcome the disappointment wrapping around me. The moment Irene said she was cursed, something inside me shattered. Was this really true or was she trying to pull my legs?I couldn't tell but I felt a feeling inside me that I didn't want to talk about. Why did she suddenly talk about it? There was no way I would want to involve myself with a cursed person. It would mean that myself and my lineage would be cursed. Oh, damn it! I had wanted to mark her. I had wanted to claim her and make her mind. But, she had the boldness to look me dead in the eyes and tell me I would die if I loved her. I was not the type that should be afraid of curses. But, there was something different about this. It sounded so much like a lie and at the same time, it sounded so true. That was what confused me the most. If it was a lie then it was a cunning and desperate attempt to push me away from her. I had never been a man who tolerated deceit. But if it was true, I had to be

    IreneDid I have to keep complaining in order to get what I want? I guessed so and I was beginning to give into what life already had in store for me.Lucien had mentioned something the other time and he left me hanging. I had so much pride left inside of me and I could not see myself asking him what he meant by that statement. I held my head down with my two hands and breathed heavily. This was more difficult than I thought but I might still be capable for the journey ahead. Who knows?As I soliloquized, I was able to hear him come before I saw him and From the sounds of the footsteps coming closer to me. I knew that he was here. There was a way he walked. It was different from that of others. Lucien was back. I couldn't think twice about that. I stood by the window, pretending that I didn't just confirm that he was here. I hid the smile on my face and wore a very straight look so that he wouldn't mistake me for someone happy. I was not a happy woman. I was far from that and

    LucienI enjoyed the way these two ladies attacked themselves. They made things more fun and more tense. All of these make me forget my worries for a brief second. While that was good, it wasn't a responsible way of handling things. I leaned back in my chair with my arms crossed as I watched Irene and Eve glare at each other like two wolves about to tear into each other's flesh.Eve was quite predictable. She had a sharp tongue and could barely conceal her anger. But Irene? She was very different from Eve. She had a way of revenging and making you pay for the crime you committed just by getting under your skin like thorns.Chris sat stiffly beside me, watching what was playing out in front of us. He began to communicate through the mind link to me and I could see exactly what he was talking about. "She’s unbearable. Get rid of her,” he said, talking about Irene. I tightened my face, suppressing the irritation that he creeped onto me. I had expected something more intelligent fr

    IreneI didn’t expect to be alone in that room but it happened. I wanted to just lay my head on the couch and leave when I wanted to but Silas locked me indoors even after I protested. I couldn't escape so I was confined there and confined. I was left to think and for Silas’s return. “Stay put. I'm going on a scouting mission,” his voice rang inside my head. My heart kept aching because of the distance that had grown between us. He was no longer the brother I once knew. The brother I once trusted. Now, I couldn’t even bring myself to face him without feeling betrayed.I shifted uncomfortably on the bed, as my thoughts juggled all over my brain. There were so many things to think about. Our arguments had left me with more questions than answers, and I needed anything that would explain why he had changed so drastically. His coldness, the secrets he kept from me. Everything made my stomach churn and my intestine twist. I couldn’t sit here any longer. My thoughts were killing me

    Irene"You're nothing but a disappointment, Irene. I think it's high time I let you know. You are a disappointment!”Those were the first words Silas said to me the moment I stepped out of the small bathroom in his room. I had barely gotten a grip on my thoughts. I had barely managed to calm my breathing after pacing around like a madwoman, and here he was, launching another attack towards me. I wasn't expecting him to call me a disappointment out of the blues. So, out of confusion, I stared at him, with a towel in hand. My heart was slowly getting colder as the clock kept ticking. "Really? We are starting with insults now? Not even a good morning or maybe 'how are you feeling after being publicly humiliated and dragged into yet another mess I didn't create?'" I asked yet he scoffed and squeezed his face. “Playing the victim card with me is not going to help you. Don't you dare try it because I didn't give you that privilege to play the victim card with me. You can't keep doing

    Lucien Peris pushed the door open when my hands were placed behind my back. I was expecting him all these while because I had sent him on an important errand. “Any news?” I asked, preparing my mind for even the worst even though I was scared. One could see the goosebumps all over my body because of how tensed and scared I was of the unknown. "She's gone, my Lord. No one's seen her since this morning,” he informed me and I pressed my lips together. Peris’s words hit me like a sharp knife thrown into my chest.I turned around slowly, keeping my face straight as the room around me began to spin.That statement alone meant so many things to me and I could barely comprehend it. "What do you mean, she's gone?" I asked, but my voice remained calm but it was also cold. I knew that tone always scared the hell out of my warriors.Peris shifted on his feet and I could clearly see him playing with his fingers. Was there more to what he had to say to me?"The maids said she went out briefl

    IreneNo way! This has to be a slap to my face. I refused to smile. I just discovered what Silas has been doing and it made me broken. All these while he has been doing this yet he pretends everytime he came to meet me."You're still talking to Kael? After everything you said? Wait! Can you convince me that you are making sense?” I asked Silas and he could clearly see that I was very mad. I couldn't stop the words from tesrkng out of me. I couldn't dare hold my rage back. “Can you at least allow me talk?” He asked me and I just shook my head in shame. Silas was my brother but he was not who I thought he was..“I gave you every opportunity to say all you wanted to say,” I said and my voice shook. My voice didn't shake out of fear but from pure, boiling rage. There was nothing he could say to me at this time that would cause me to believe him. He was a liar and he didn't know how to do that properly. I stared at Silas, daring him to lie to me again. To my greatest surprise, he wa

    IreneWhen the current situation hit me hard to my chest like a bullet, I didn't just sit there and wait for the worst calamity to befall me before I left. I ran with all my might. I went to Sila's apartment which was separated from the others. This was a good thing for me. I didn't want to see anyone. I didn't want anyone to ask me any useless question regarding my mood. I needed some space and I didn't want anyone to disturb me whatsoever. Most people had sworn that they were going to make my life a living hell but I wasn't going to allow that to happen. I was in control of my life and I was not going to allow anyone to gain access into my life and mess things up. That was not all…I had decided that I won't be wasting my energy on things that don't matter. Instead, I would use it to find out something that had been wrong with the park. It might sound strange to the ears but trust me, it's a better development than allowing myself to cry every time someone says something terr

    Lucien "Where is she?"That was the first thing I asked when I stepped through the front doors.I needed to see Irene immediately and I was not going to mix my words. I was taken aback when I noticed that Irene is no longer present. I used my eyes to search through the rooms but she was nowhere to be found. What kind of prank was she playing this time around? Irene knew how to get on someone's nerves so fast and this time, I was not going to take it easy with her. “I asked a fucking question! Where is she?” I demanded and my voice was sharp and demanding, shaking the walls of the room. I wasn’t even sure who I was talking to until I saw a few maids standing awkwardly by the hallway, their hands folded in front of them and their eyes darting around like they were scared. They looked like they were being punished and I couldn't tell which crime they committed. The truth is, I didn't care to ask. It was none of my business. Although, it was awkward seeing them in this condition.

    Irene "She's not even a Luna. So why is everyone acting like she matters? I hate her!”There were so many things I heard when I was coming down the stairs and it made me stop dead in my tracks. I had to look at the direction that voice came from and it hurt me badly to see that a maid was the person saying terrible things about me. It hurt my feelings that I was referred to as someone who wasn't Luna yet and the worst thing was that I was being hated because of my simple existence. “You are right. She keeps acting like someone who is very important when she's not. I have no idea why the Alpha still keeps her here,” another supported what the first maid said and goosebumps appeared all over my body. “He claims he loves her, which I doubt. How the hell did he love someone like that?”The sound of the maid’s voice hit me like a stone to the chest and because of all that I heard, I could barely breathe. I wasn’t even trying to eavesdrop. I just wanted to get some air, to walk past t

    LucienI clenched my jaw as I walked into the council chamber, closing the heavy wooden doors creaking behind me. I was here to meet the elders to discuss something important. This was not something I usually do because I mostly summoned them when I wanted to scold them for something stupid that they did. Right now? I didn't know. I was not in the right frame of mind. I barely walked in with my head raised up high and the room was already smelling because of the fire burning beside them. I was a little bit reminded that I was dealing with the elders who thought they had better authorities in front of me. The elders sat in a semicircle, their eyes narrowing the moment I stepped in. I already knew what was coming.I was expecting anything from them. I was expecting them to wail and to wag their tongues in anger. But, I was already not bothered about anything that they had to say to me. "Lucien," Elder Faron spoke first, his tone sounding so disappointed. He was about to say somet

    IreneMy stomach was rumbling greatly and I didn't need an angel to tell me to run down the stairs to the dining. I had never anticipated eating in this manner. As I ran down, I could hear the sound of my heavy footsteps echoing through the walls. My stomach twisted in knots. It didn't seem like hunger this time. It was more like the uneasy feeling I felt inside me. I began to think about stupid things that I shouldn't be bothered about. At this point, I didn’t want to face anyone. I didn't want to see Lucien or Silas or even Camille. But I knew I had to eat, and hiding away in my room forever wasn’t an option. As I reached the dining hall, I stopped at the doorway and took a deep breath. Damn! The food was so good that it hit my nostrils before I could enter the dining room. I knew immediately that this scene was coming from roasted meat and fresh bread. I salivated and my mouth watered. I needed to be in that room, digging into my food..I swallowed some saliva down my thr
