“Aren’t you ready?” Alston called out for the umpteenth time.After proposing to Arya and alerting the whole pack about it. Arya had begged him to release the elders since they didn’t know anything about it but not after giving them an earful of instructions. The priestess that were involved in mapping out her mothers death were demoted, stripping them off their titles and making them ordinary maids of the pack while the others were also released.Mrs jenkins and mr jenkins moved back to the human world. Mrs Jenkins was never a fan of being confined to a single pack, and so left immediately after giving Alston a handful of instructions.Alston wanted to take Arya through the pack, show her every nook and cranny of it and yet she was taking the whole day to dress up, or the maids were doing so.“I’m done.” He heard her say as he turned his back to look at her.His eyes roamed her body, his wolf growling underneath him as he begged to rip that dress off her. Even though he proposed and
After making rounds and checking everywhere of the pack, Arya's mind was at ease at how she was welcomed amidst them all. She smiled to herself as she laid back on the bed, thinking about the little kids she saw and how happy they were when they saw Alston.Once she thought a world like this never existed, until the world turned out to be hers and she kept on enjoying it. She smiled in her pajamas, rolling back and forth with a lot of thoughts going on in her head.“Arya…. I’m ready.” Alston called out as he walked out of the bathroom.They were going to her house to pack her clothes, if not, she would soon be walking naked in the pack.“You know, I can just keep on wearing your clothes, we don’t have to do this.” Arya called out.“We’ll, we have to. The way you’re stealing my clothes is now quite alarming.” He replied to her, rolling his eyes at her as he walked out of the room.Arya fumbled out of the bed, muttering some incoherent words to herself as she stomped her foot on the flo
She held her protruded belly running as fast as she could, her legs getting slower at every step she took. She knew that she couldn’t hold on for so much longer. The huge wolves running behind her would soon catch her up with her and that was the last thing she needed. If they caught her, she would be tied to the stakes and be burnt alive, she and her child. She needed to protect her child. She was innocent and had done nothing at all.She wiped her already dirtied faced smearing even more mud on her face holding her belly and her eyes searching the forest to find a hideout to hide but the forest was bare and stretched out into the dark with no place to hide. If even she hid at that moment, they would sniff her out.With her thoughts running wild and her mind in disarray; she didn’t see the roots of the tree in front of her that had stretched out his roots all over the place. She tripped over it in less than a second and fell heavily o
Everyone in the room darted a glance at each other without saying anything, they all held their breaths too scared to even breathe well while darting small glances at the man who was seated at the far end of the room.His head was thrown backwards and his eyes were closed as though he was sleeping but the murderous feelings that was emaciating from him said otherwise. His eyes were closed while his eyelashes fluttered lazily.Some of the old people in the room turned to an elderly man while using their hands and eyes to make all kinds of gestures and conversations. The elderly man who looked as terrified as the rest of the men in the room coughed lightly while standing up and bowing his head to the man who looked as if he was still sleeping.“Alpha Alston, on behalf….” The old man had barely started when the supposed sleeping man stopped him in his tracks.“Old man have your seat” he interrupted him finally lifting the eyeli
“Have a nice day Mom,” Arya said dropping a kiss on her mom’s forehead before darting into the school. No thanks to her mom, she would be late for her first class. adjusting the back pack on her shoulders; she hurried through the stairs and hallway praying that the teacher wouldn’t be in class yet but as expected her prayers weren’t answered.The moment she stepped into the class; everyone turned to her including the very much older man who was resting on his table while teaching the class. Arya swallowed her saliva nervously while bowing her head slightly in greetings.“Miss Jenkins, the time is forty-five minutes past 9am” he started and Arya winced quietly.“You want to tell the whole class why you came late?” he asked his eyes boring into her as if telling her that if she lied, he would be able to figure her out on the spot.Mr Hagans had always given Arya the chills. The man was a no n
“Hey baby” someone said pressing a forehead kiss to Arya’s forehead while Arya closed her eyes and allowed herself to relish the sparks that coursed through their body in that spilt second. She then turned to face the boy who had his arms wrapped around her shoulders.“Where have you been?” she asked repeating the question she had asked before. The blonde haired boy tapped on her nose before wearing a smile that never failed to make Arya turn into a puddle of butterflies.“I had to run a few errands” he replied eliciting furrowed brows from Arya.“And you wouldn’t pick my calls?” Arya asked a frown etched to her face while the boy burst into laughter.“C’mon baby. I left my phone in the car so I didn’t see your calls. Why do you think I rushed down here?” he asked as Arya folded her arms shaking of his arms off her shoulders.“What kind of errands would make you leave your phone in the car,” Arya asked.“Anyone could have called, your mom or your Dad or someone important. Don’t tell m
“Why am I just learning about this supposed mountain trip?” she asked and Arya sighed turning to her mom while throwing her arms upwards in the air.“Mom, we go for school trips every year; why are you freaking out because I’m telling you a night before?” Arya asked not understanding why her mom was acting so worked up.“You go for school trips every year and this year, it’s some freaky mountain? And you are telling few hours to the trip? You must be kidding me?!” her mom yelled as she walked towards the table and grabbed her phone.“I’m calling your school authorities. They must be crazy to think I’ll let my daughter go some mountain in the same of some stupid school trip” she muttered while Arya’s mouth dropped agape. She quickly rushed towards her mom collecting the phone from her and ending the call.“Mom, what are you doing?” she asked while her mom turned to her with a frown on her face.“Give me my phone Arya” her mom replied firmly.“Mom, are you trying to embarrass me in fron
By the time Arya woke up the next morning, she was quick to rehearse her apology in her head while stepping out of her room. She jogged down the stairs with a smile on her face but much to her shock; the dining room and the seating room was empty. Her eyes flew to the digital clock on the wall and it read few minutes’ past 9am in the morning, her parents were early risers and most of the time as early as 6 in the morning, they would be up.She quickly jogged back up the stairs and knocked on their doors. Receiving no reply, she swallowed her saliva and pushed the door open. The sight of the empty room and well laid bed brought Arya to a pause.Her parents had left the house without a word to her.The realization reeled back and hit Arya in the face. She slowly closed the door and walked to her room plopping on the bed and staring into space. It had never, never happened before. her parents were busy people; her Dad worked in one of the biggest hospitals in Denmark and was also one of t

Arya and Camilla walked a lot of miles through the pack, things were still bubbly, probably because they just left the square not too long ago, Camilla said. Taking her to different places in the pack, and showing her different things of their pack, Arya enjoyed the walk that she didn’t want to leave, and yet her sole purpose of walking still became a void in her heart.By the time they returned home, everywhere was dark already, and eerily silent.“The alpha asked you to sleep in his room, I’ll lead you there.” Camilla said, bowing as she walked in front.Arya smiled to herself, following her gently and quietly as they arrived at the front of a big room.“Good night, your highness.” She said, walking away fast as she could before Arya could even say anything.Arya shrugged her shoulders as she opened the room, her eyes dazed at the sight in front of her. She smiled at the thought of the flowers Alston brought to her the other day, so he was a keeper of flowers himself.“He must have
After his parents death, he never gave up on finding the real killer, having a whole lot of things to do to them and has mapped out for them, and now finding who they are, his head was nothing but a blank page, filled with hurt and emptiness.“Throw her in the fire! Throw her in the fire!” The people of the pack yelled out, making him clench his jaw.They never did the fire killing, they never killed people with fire in the pack. But since they found it as a nice option to kill his mate, he had helped them, while they had to take the first death, it has become something he was going to take up.“Your highness, please, please. Do not do this! This isn’t a wise choice.”She pleaded on top of her voice, tears dropping down her face and falling like the ocean.“Please. Please!”She continued to plead.Alston signaled to the guards,‘matching forward as they dragged her towards the fire, her wails and screams echoing through the area. One of the children of the murdered priestess entered th
The guards pulled each and every of the priestesses and elders out, not minding the way they handled them because that was the instruction the alpha had given them, bringing them out without caring whatsoever. It was Zachariah and one other guard that matched to where ashlynn was placed and brought her out.The bell had been rung for all the pack to know that there was an emergency already, all of them hurrying towards the square and forming a circle, waiting for anything that was to come.The elders and priestess were thrown in the middle of the circle as they brought them out one after the other. Alston appeared after a while, he had sent a guard to Mrs jenkins and mr jenkins, asking them to come to the square if they could come but also not leaving Arya alone in the house.“The reason why we called this meeting here is because the real perpetrator has been caught and now we can all fully rest and be fully aware that my mate is not the child of prophecy. And everything you’ve been t
“Where’s.. wheres.. the alpha.. I.. I..need..” the priestess stuttered, mustering all her energy to say the words that came out of her mouth.“I’ll advise you to save the energy for when he gets back and rest well now. A whole lot of things are happening in this pack that we don’t know yet.” The pack doctor replied, walking away from her as he rolled his eyes.The priestess raised her hand, trying to call him back but he was long gone.•••••••••Zachariah continued to delve into the forest, following the scent of Alston he had for himself to trace him. His pace increased as he felt himself closing in on him, not minding the paths he passed through as he kept jumping on each of the branches.He saw Alston wolf from afar, standing all alone and lonely at the poisoned river. He reduced his pace, walking to him slowly with fear thumping on his heart.“Your highness.” He called out as he shifted to his human form.Alston did not bother to reply to him even though he heard him, staring deep
“Don’t you want to know about it? What you’ve always wanted to know all this while? Don’t you want to know about it now?” Sabrina questioned with a smirk at the corner of her lips.Alston clenched his jaw as he stared at her, wondering if he should believe her or not. His eyes focusing on her at the same time with gritted teeth,“And what would you know about it? Except you’re the killer, which I for some reason, won’t believe you.” Alston said, scanning her and every of her reactions.“You have so much faith in me, your highness.” Sabrina retorted with a small smile.“I was the one who poisoned them, not because I wished to, but because they deserved it.” She added, falling back to her butt as Alston stood there, shock evident on his face as he stared at her.All this while, all this time, he had known his parents death wasn’t natural and someone had to be behind it, almost saying it with the priestess when the killer was right amongst them, sitting there and acting as their leader.
“Miss me?” Samantha asked with a growl as she walked down to meet Alston.“Find Zachariah and you’ll find Alston. I have more pending matters to deal with now.” He added.Two guards dragged ashlynn towards him as he scanned the crowd.He looked at the floor for the stabbed priestess but she has been dragged away already. All he could hope for was that nothing should happen to her.“Throw her into the deepest cell. The deepest cell where nothing can work, either her claws or powers. We’ll await the recovery of the other priestess to know what’s happening.” He said to the guards.“And I want each and every of the elders thrown into the cell, each and every of the priestess thrown into the cell.” He added as he stormed away.He walked yo where his mother was seated on, looking as brutally beaten than he could ever imagine. Yet her lips curled up as she saw him,“Get me the pack doctor!” He yelled out.“He’s treating the other woman!”Clenching his jaw, he carried her angrily and turned t
“And to what do we owe this honor our honorable alpha that leaves his pack for almost a week and is coming back now?” Sabrina asked as she approached him.Alston eyed her before walking to where Arya was placed, noticing she had fainted out of what they’ve done to her as a growl slipped his mouth. All of them whined slowly, bowing down to him till when he stopped growling.“Who did this!” He yelled out.When no one answered, all of them looked at each other without saying anything. He clenched his jaw, gritting his teeth as he tried to bolt his anger in him.“I said, who did this!” He growled out again.“I did it your highness, and the elders were in support of it. She walked..”“And who gave you the permission to do that! The beta! My mother or who!” He growled out again.Sabrina gulped down in fear, taking some steps back away from Alston who kept on approaching her.“All the priestesses and elders would be punished greatly for this!” He shouted at all of their hearings.“And you ha
