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. HeRelated chapters

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

Alston got to the pack back and dashed into his penthouse, peeling the clothes off his body and slumping to the bed. He was known to be very powerful, hot headed and very brutal, but he couldn’t even find it in himself to be all of that. His mind went back to the passionate kiss he and Arya shared, making his lips curl as he rolled to the other side of the bed. Her lips tasted like strawberries, and they were very soft. He hadn’t kissed a lot of lips but he could say as far as he had kissed, hers was still the best of all. A sigh escaped his lips as the thought of what they were going through sipped into his mind again. For the two month that he has been going in and out with her, he was particularly sure that there was nothing about her being a devil child or having something about her. She was normal, he was sure she might not be a wolf like all of them because she hadn’t shown the signs. Apart from her hearing to be so good, every other thing is different.

Alston tried so hard to mask it like he did not know before but he was having a great deal to do it. His jaw hardened, closing his eyes for a split second before opening it again. “What did you just say?” His voice came out as a whisper. “She’s your mate. The late chief priestess daughter is your mate. She’s to be the Luna of this pack.” Sabrina called out again. “The God of the lands forbids this. She can never be the Luna of your pack!” One of the priestess yelled out. “I didn’t ask you for your permission to talk!” Alston yelled back at the priestess, his eyes glowing in red already. He took deep breaths upon each other, the priestess relaxing in their chair and muffling their breathing so as not to anger him. “If she’s my mate, what does it have to do with the pack! Are you telling me that you’ll kill my mate just because she…” “You cannot be with her mu highness. She’s evil, wild and the daughter of a chief

Alston's eyes fluttered awake the next morning, a yawn escaping his lips before finally opening his eyes. He sat on the bed, stretching his arms sideways before a deep sigh escaped his lips. He had slept last night thinking of how and what to do about the Arya issue, about the priestess issue and about all of it now that they know they’re mates. But still he couldn’t come to one decision, he couldn’t come to something he’ll want to do about it.Getting off the bed, his feet moved towards the bathroom, taking a quick bath before returning and putting some clothes on. His eyes dropped at the sight of his messy wardrobe but he closed it back. He would call a maid to come and handle that, he had no time for this.A knock interrupted his thoughts, making him glance at the door.“Come in.” He said before the door opened and Zachariah's head peeped inside.“Good morning, your highness.” He greeted, lowering his head as a form of respect.“How is she?” Alston asked immediately.“She’s fine. I

Alston was not nearly as shocked as the elder had wished he could be. He knew this already, he knew how much he loves new news, especially when it comes to the well-being of the alpha that most of them haven't seen in their whole life. And he knew how much and how far they’ll go to get any news from the elders and priestess.“Since that is settled, I believe you don’t have any more reasons for staying.” Alston looked up again and said to the elders face.“Your highness, “ elder Blake stated.“You heard me, leave is the only word I can use for you all so please do.” He added, depriving them of a look as they all stood up, dragging their feets off the chair.“Most of the pack and the other people think you’ve done something bad and punishable for the moon goddess to give you s mate like this after how many years of waiting, five years?” He heard elder Blake say.He clenched his jaw, gritting his teeth silently as he listened. He would have loved to show him, to tell him that his mate wa

“Who told you about this?” Alston questioned the little boy.“My mum and her friends have been saying it and they said something would happen to us if she becomes the queen, can you not mate with her?” The little boy pleaded, pouting his lips at Alston.Alston sighed and raised his hand up to shuffle the boy's head. He had no idea what to say.“Let me tell you a secret. It would be between you and me okay, no telling anyone, alright?”The little boy nodded vigorously as Alston leaned onto his ears. After whispering some words to him, the boy's face lit up, taking one of his fingers and placing it on his lips. Alston patted his shoulder and got back on his feet, turning away from the boy with an unsettling depth of trouble in him. He needed to call them, they should stop saying nonsense to their kids.*********“Why did you block your connection?” Alston almost growled at Zachariah as they got to the field.“I didn’t. I was just too busy, I’m sorry your highness.” He hurriedly begged

“Who is there?” A happy Arya bounced to the door, opening it even without hearing any reply from the other side only for her face to fall out and leave it open while she entered the house back.“Why isn’t he coming?“ she grumbled under net breath.“I’m sorry. The pack is hot now, there’s no way he can leave you but he sent his best regards.” He replied, dropping the nylon bag of the freshly scented sweets that she liked to eat according to Alston. Arya eyed the package, another bribing method, she thought to herself and picked it up.“This can’t work all the time. Tell him I want to see him tomorrow, he should clear his time and come to see me.” She pitted as her face went into the sweets.“Alright, my lady.” Zachariah bowed to her command and stood behind her, not moving an inch.His thoughts went back to the first day he saw her, at the window, looking so vulnerable and pitiful, her eyes so red, signifying how much she had been crying. And now things have moved pretty fast, that jer

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. Even though he proposed and

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
