“It’s not like that mother. I’ve just been busy.” He replied as he pressed his lips together.

“Busy with what? With finding the girl or what?” His mother said back to him.

“Mother… what do you know about the high priestess who gave birth to the child?” Alston required.

He looked up to meet his mother frowned face before she drew out a chair and sat on it.

“I don’t know anything about that. I can’t even say anything about that. But she went against one of the rules and that was the punishment given to her. I can’t say much apart from that.” She replied.

“Thanks mum. I have to go now.” Alston replied before standing up and pecking her cheeks.

“Wha…what…what? You just got here and now..

“I’ve been here for a while now.” He sighed as he turned to face her again.

“I mean, I just got here!” She yelled at him.

“Mum. I have to rest and think on what next to do about what we’ll do about the girl. We have to find her and put an end to this. And you, can stop the mate hunt.” He retorted with a s

    “I’m ready.” She screamed with her face glowing in happiness.“Arya, you’re supposed to wear flats or sneakers, what if you have to run? What if something happens.. what if..“Don’t worry Mrs Jenkins. I’ll be there with her, nothing can happen.” Alston cut her off.He didn’t want anyone to spoil the damsel's mood as her face showed how happy she was. She stuck her tongue to her mother before hopping down the stairs.“Bye..” she waved at them before alston bowed and walked out with her.Mrs Jenkins sighed before looking at her husband.“What do you think he wants from her?” She asked with worry on her face.“I don’t know…” he replied in his masculine voice before drawing her closer and rubbing her back.“But I think he has the best interest for her.” He added.“So all you have to do is keep calm and just let fate do its thing.” He finished off as he rested her head on his broad chest.She sighed again, closing her eyes and enjoying the pats she got from her husband.

    Alston walked back to the car with a defeated look on his face. “She’s not in school.” He said to Arya immediately he entered. “What! Eileen didn’t come to school? Are you sure you asked well?” Arya turned her head to him with raised brows. “If asking from the principal and him sending delegates to each classes to check means I asked well, then I think I did.” Alston replied her. Arya felt disappointed but had no choice. He has done his part and she could still go and check at eileen house. “Let’s go to her house.” She said. “Okay then. Do you know how to drive, because I don’t know her directions.” “Then we’ll use Google map.” She brought out her phone and connected the map to the car. Alston raised his brow as the female voice of the thing called ‘Google’ started talking and told him to reverse his car. Maybe the humans have a little bit of sense too, because creating this means a lot. The ca

    “How are you feeling now?” Alston asked Arya as they were both lying on the bed. “I’m good. My mum helped me get over it last night, but I’m fine.” She replied, her hands intertwined together as she gazed up the ceiling. Alston side face was turned to her, checking her every reaction to know if she was fine or not. Her throat bobbed up and down at intervals, and she continued to run her hands together. “Are you sure you’re fine?” Alston asked her quietly. “Of course. What did you do later? Throw it away or take it to your park?” She asked. “I took it to the park so I can get what it is. I don’t know what kind of creature it is, but I later got to know that it meant no harm. It meant more good than harm.” He replied before turning to face the ceiling like she did. He sighed as he felt her gaze on him, “What does that mean?” She questioned with raised brows. “The thing was a black sorcerer, who was going t

    “Since your sister wrecked havoc in the pack, the pack has not been the same again, but yet I’m trying my best to make it better.” Alston retorted as he shot her a provoked look. “I didn’t mean it that way.” Mrs Jenkins retorted. “How did you know that a priestess was involved? You’ve left the pack for more than 20 years or close to, who gave you this information.” Alston asked. “My sister, Caitlyn.” She replied. “Is this all before she died?” He asked again. Arya was engrossed in rubbing Alston palm that she had zoned out into her own world, but each time they called out ‘my sister’ and ‘chief priestess’ or ‘Caitlyn’, she came back to the conversation only to hear that part. She wished she could have met her mother before she died. Even if it’s a picture or something to see her or know how she looks, she would appreciate it a lot. “She sounds like a powerful person.” She muttered, making Alston and Mrs. Jenkins stop in the

    “Like I asked the priestesses about what happened to their chief priestess, some of you gave me answers like she fornicated and gave birth to a demon child. Now I ask you again, and I want nothing but the truth, what happened to the chief priestess then!” Alston glowered at them.Fear wrapped around their head, and their worries cuddled them as they wondered why he was asking this.“That’s what she did, your highness, ask around, that’s what people will tell…”“I don’t want what people will tell me, I want the truth. Sabrina, what happened to the chief priestess?” Alston asked as he turned to the assistant chief priestess of that time.“I need this information to find the daughter, to get to her. If we don’t have that, there’s no way we’re reaching onto her. So I need it.” Alston bellowed again, his eyes widening as he stared at them all.They all glanced at each other before looking at Sabrina. She was still a young girl and a learning priestess when the incident happened, but she di

    Ashlynn continued to drag the poor woman through the woods. A glimpse of happiness at the corner of her eyes. She enjoyed what she did, or what she knew how to do best. It was her potentio, and it had gotten her a lot of things that she wanted. Including her sister's mate. The thought of it made her clench her jaw, it made her angry, it made her a fool and it reminded her of her ugly self. “Don’t call yourself that. You’ll find your mate sooner or later.” That’s how that bitch used to say it. “What were you going to do in the palace?” She tugged the chain she was using to hold the priestess, making her help in pain. She was going to face the alpha and tell him some made up information about her sister when she met this priestess there, and immediately she knew what she was there for. The idiot was going to rattle out on her, on all of them and land them into serious trouble. “I was not there for anything. I just wanted to see the highness. He

    Alston got down from the car and walked towards Aryas building with a hand filled with nylon. Same was Zachariah whose face was contorted into a large frown, a handful of nylons in his hand also. Alston had rushed him here on a short notice, taking him to the mall and picking a lot of things he thinks Arya should like and some dresses that he would love for her to wear and it would fit in her body. “This would look so good on her or don’t you think?” He had said to Zachariah in the mall and the latter only nodded at him. As they knocked on the door, Alston had finally given up his key to Arya, who seems it’s an invasion of privacy for him to always enter their house anytime and any day. “What do you think about the priestess?” Zachariah questioned. “I think she’s about to say something I know already. Keep an eye on them. They’re keeping something:” he retorted before the door opened. Arya jumped on him immediately she saw him, leav

    “Shhhhh.” Mr Jenkins said to Mrs Jenkins as they both peeped from up the stairs. Mrs Jenkins clenched her fist. Arya was kissing Alston, and they both were not even discreet about it. “Can’t you see he likes her? What more do you want?” Mr Jenkins questioned her. “What if he’s just toying with her and he’ll get her to submit to the pack after? Have you thought about that?” She retorted. Arya pulled her lips from Alston and buried her head on his neck. Her neck was a shade of pink, obviously embarrassed by the long deep kiss they shared. Alston could hear every bit of the conversation her mother and father were making. They were not even trying to be discreet at all, or lower their voices down in case they heard them. “Can you hear?” He whispered in her ears making Arya recoil from his touch. His voice in her ears sent shivers down her spine as she clenched her thighs immediately. “I can. That’s how shameless they

    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

    “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.

    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.

    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.

    “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
