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
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
