My plan was a perfectly mapped out heist that was carefully and meticulously orchestrated by me. It was a work of creation but in the end, that fucking bitch still lived and roamed the earth freely. Georgino was my right hand man and a full inhabitant of the human kingdom. He was an ally and another victim of my advances. He was a puppet on my strings who obeyed my every whims and caprices making it easy for me to come in and out of the human kingdom at will. We met at an event hosted for the less privileged and orphans in Boar. It was already a norms for men to fall at my feet and kiss the feet I threaded on but one little sneer or flash of anger from me all had them scurrying away with their hearts in their upturned mouths. With Georgino, it was different. We shared a sense of camaraderie which made it far easier for him not to cower in my presence. He became marked by me as a means to an end. My gut instinct beckoned on me to keep him at my corner as an ally rather than an enemy
These were one of the days I ever so dreaded. Days like this were bleak gloomy. The search had become an endlessly exhausting and discouraging. Every nook and cranny had already being searched and yet I refused to loose hope. I could only imagine the pain this brought my siblings and the anxiety that plagued my parents at the moment due to Juliet's disappearance. Juliet was a friend to all and a sister to many. She was loved both at home and abroad. "Any signs of her?." I asked my Beta who was at the far end of the forest that demarcated the southern kingdom and the Alphanian terrain. "Nothing your grace. But I have urgent news from the palace about your wife." Sean wasn't the bringer of bad news neither was he the royal messenger. For him to be the one divulging news from the palace it only meant the situation at hand was dire. The sky was pregnant with rain and the hue in the sky had darkened immensely casting it's shadowy light on our path. "Tell me." The skeptical look on h
Everything felt perfect, from the morning sun, to the birds chirping outside and to the hot chunk of male on my bed. Everything was in it's rightful place. Even in all his naked glory, Xavier radiated like the sun. His olive skin and dark brown hair begged for my touch. It took me all the self control I possessed to withstand the temptation that had my hands moving on its own volution.to his well sculpted body on my bed. It was in the moment that Xavier slowly opened his eyes and with a loud groan of satisfaction turned towards me. I was quick to return to my sleeping position before he could open his eyes fully so there was no way he knew I woke up hours ago or knew of my earlier intent. His breathe fanning on my face made it difficult for me to keep up the pretense of being asleep. "You look beautiful when you sleep, Do you know that?." Xavier was such a tease even in my current state, my nipples peeked out from the sheets, making it very difficult to put up with the charade I
Blackmails, threats, inconsiderate words, hidden sentences and what not were all considered to be abominable acts by me. No one, I mean no one had the autonomy hold the life of another. I know Ariel had sternly warned me against intruding into her private affairs but on the long run I hoped she forgave me. I wasn't just doing this for her, I was doing it in a bid to bring to an abrupt end the evils that men indulge themselves in just to coerce a woman into doing their biddings. "Sean" I called out to my beta who was always at my beck and call. It was time I had put an end to the overwhelming stupidity Asher had allowed consume him in the preposterous name of jealousy. "Yes your grace." "Lead the way to the soldiers quarters. I have some unfinished business there." The soldiers quarters was a beautiful sight to behold. I had a lot to learn from the south, their culinary delicacies, historic sites and mode of treatment to their subjects was top notch. The northern kingdom was also
"How many times has it being today. Oh my! By the end of the month I believe the queen will be expecting the future prince of the kingdom." The maids snickered in delight which caused me to head towards their direction. At the sight if me, they both scurried away before I caught up with them. The loud moans and clattering sound of things breaking tore my heart into shredded bits. I could barely contain my rage and untamed anger. Their moans only intensified. I needed some air and a way to being an end to this madness. It was meant to be me. The moans coming from Ariel, the satisfied growl from Xavier was supposed to be courtesy of me. I grounded my teeth, trying to tame the burning sensation in my eyes. Being hurt was an understatement. I was far from being hurt, I was out for blood. My plans for Juliet had changed the moment Xavier started banging my rival. The thought of severing Juliet's head from her body and sending it over to Xavier on a platter felt like a good idea. "Roseli
Asher swerved on the road like someone who had a loose screw in his head. My heart was literally in my mouth as I urged myself from screaming my lungs out. He was going to kill us both before we got to the border of the human kingdom. "Asher slow down!. You are going to kill us both if you continue this reckless driving." I tried to talk some sense into him but all my attempts ended up falling on deaf ears. He really was determined to commit first degree intent to murder. We were at the border in no time and he was out of the car before I couldn't say jack and Jill. "Keep watch incase we were being followed. We can never be too sure." He did not wait for my response as he sauntered towards the underground cave of Georgino. The feeling I had when be disappeared completely from my sight was unsettling. It felt as though he was headed towards something dangerous. So much for wanting to tear down everything on my path when in rage. I did not see anything wrong with killing that liab
Love, this must be why the Socrates and philos fancied the comingling of the two hearts into one. I was indeed in love with this man and his selfless act of going against my will with his plans to destroy the grip Asher had on me only made me love him more. My fingertip trailed the curves of his nose enjoying the way he twitched at my touch. Xavier slowly opened his eyes and stretched like a satisfied cat. "Good morning beautiful. You look breathtakingly yummy this morning if I must add. Oh the glow! You radiate like the early morning sun." I never knew Xavier had this playful side to him, it only warmed my heart some more to watch this hot piece of sex occupy half of the king sized bed with his big build. The urge to have him underneath me was ever so tempting. "Someone is in a happy mood." I snickered underneath the sheets. His eyes trailed down my body, reading my thoughts but we had loads of activities to attend to do staying in bed from dusk till dawn was not an option. "Fuc
"Promise me you will not do anything rash Roseline." Asher pleaded with me to keep.my claws to myself. It was surreal to say the least that I was considered to be a dangerous person by Asher. I needed him to take a breather and rest so I told him.what he wanted to hear. "Again and Again, I have promised not to do anything to Griffin until you get on your feet." That was a white lie because there was no way I was letting Griffin off the hook until I was u're he was going to keep his mouth shut..For someone like him was a.typical loyalist to the crown, it was not going to be easy to convince him to do otherwise. Just incase, I needed to have another alternative plan if Plan A failed. Asher was one hell of a fool who did not have a backbone. Griffin was not going to obviously listen to someone like him plus, he as given twenty four hours to come.clean. In his current state, he was as good as incapacitated. Yes, he was a wild blessed with the power to heal up but then again he was no m
Everything suddenly made sense as Roseline was hurled away,her co conspirators were dragged along with her, Juliet was back and Ariel was now a mother. I wanted to book us a holiday trip to get away from everything we have been through for the past months up until Ariel put to birth and I knew that if I waited till Ariel gave her go ahead, she would never let us travel out and enjoy a real honeymoon, so I didn't bother asking her. "Sean" I said casually at my beta, his eyes already twinkling with mischief. "Yes, Xavier?" He asked. "What would you say if I left you in charge for a little while?" I asked him and I could tell how wide his eyes grew. His lips were about to form words. Words that I knew would be in opposition to what I was already proposing. "You can't say no and, Ariel and I need to have a proper honeymoon," I said to him and that made his lips clamp shut, his smile broadened. "You're right actually and it would be unfair to refuse you," he said. " Not to mention

It felt surreal.The obstetrician had come out earlier to tell me that Ariel was going into labor and now, some hours later, he was back again to deliver the news that I was now a father. Of twins. Nobody had expected that Ariel was pregnant with twins and even the scan had not caught that. It was a miracle indeed and in this difficult time, a miracle was well appreciated. "Can I go in now?" I asked. I was excited but at the same time, I was anxious. It was my first time being a father and I was desperate to do a good job. He smiled and before he even nodded, I had rushed into the room. Ariel was lying in bed, smiling up at the nurses who carried the babies. I stopped at the door for a moment, unsure what to do. "Your Grace." The head nurse said to me. She was smiling and holding out the baby to me. I approached with caution. I had never carried a baby in my entire life and this one seemed so delicate, so tiny that I feared it would slip and the baby would fall. "He's cute." "He
I slowly opened my eyes.The world around me felt unfamiliar but the face hovering above mine was one I knew too well. Now even if I lost all my memory and forgot the people I once knew, I did not think I could ever forget Roseline. This type of betrayal could never be gotten over. Roseline's eyes widened as she saw me gazing at her and we stared each other down for a while before she stepped away from my bed in shock. She glanced at the door and then the window probably contemplating whether to kill me or run away. I opened my mouth to speak in order to stall for time but no sound came out. Was this simply a bad dream? At that moment, it seemed she decided to kill me. She moved menacingly towards my bed, syringe in hand. I tried to sit up on bed but my body was sore all over and I could barely lift a limb. I was usually one with a speedy recovery rate but I guess there's only so much a wolf can handle. I tried to scream but no words came out. It was then I noticed that the persis
My eyes shot open.Every inch of my body ached and it was impossible for me to move. A familiar face hovered above me but it took me a good minute to remember who it was. "Syria." I gasped. "You are not dead. Good." "What happened?" Why was she even here? I felt like something really significant had gone down but I did not know what it was at the moment. My brain seemed to be lagging by at least twenty four hours. "The short or long version?" The fact that Syria was refusing to be straight with me irritated me to no end. Did she think I was joking here? I tried to swing my hand at her face but it felt too heavy to lift. "Short version." I said in resignation. "The Queen got away, The king thinks you're dead and you're left with nothing." There was no emotion in her voice as she said it and I was grateful for that. I did not need pity but I wouldn't appreciate mockery either. "Help me up." She frowned at me and then proceeded to look me up and down. "I think it's best you re
I stumbled and almost fell.Ariel was right in front of me but I could feel her slipping away while I was unable to do anything. Since I brought her back to the palace with me the night before, I had been unable to focus or even sleep. My head hurt badly but the pain in my chest was much more greater. I was losing everything that I had ever cherished. And why? I could not understand it. Why did Roseline have to do this to us? There had to be reason and I refused to believe the narrative that she was simply madly in love with me. Even a psychopath would never go to such lengths but then, psychopaths would never fall in love in the first place. Did normal people not wish happiness for the people they loved? If Ariel decided to leave me, I would be sad and plead with her but it would never ever occur to me to hurt her. Wasn't that how love should be? "Xavier, you need to sleep. There's nothing you can do by pacing here." Sean was trying to be the voice of reason but I did not think I
I ran as fast as my legs would let me.The sun was almost down and I was desperate to get to Ariel. She was calling out to me and even though I still did not know exactly where she was, I could predict the area. I would find her today. Tomorrow might be too late. "Sean, stick with me and tell the others to spread out in groups of three." Sean set about doing as I had told him while I peered around between trees at high alert. "Quickly form group of threes and stay together. Nobody leaves their partners. If you notice anything weird, alert us immediately." I watched Sean as he went about addressing the numerous guards that were spread out in the field. I had told him to stay back in the palace but he insisted on coming with me. "I want to see this through to the end , Xavier. I feel like we'll be successful this time and I want to be part of that." I could not fault his argument because I understood him. I would want to be part of the team that brought my abductors to justice too
I slapped Ariel hard across the face.Her hands hung limp by her side and her head fell forward as though she was simply sleeping. If she thought it was okay to start having ideas, then she was begging to be killed and I had no objections to that. But I couldn't let Ariel go just like that. I had loathed her for most of my life and now that it was time to make her pay, I wanted to delight in it for a long time. First, I would kill Juliet slowly and painfully in front of her and when she was begging to be killed, I would grant her her wish. I turned to Juliet. The anger in her eyes had returned and quite frankly, I'd missed that look. That ferociousness that seemed to imply I was despicable and inhumane and she would kill me if she managed to lay her hands on me. Too bad though, she was bound to a chair with her hands tied behind her. "How could you?" She whispered choking out sobs. "How could you do this to Ariel?" It was the first time I was seeing her crying without much restrai
I slowly opened my eyes.My entire body ached and I felt nauseous. I had been sleeping for a long time but it was still bright out now. Time seemed to pass really slowly here although I had no way of knowing what the actual time was. I tried to keep hope alive, certain that Xavier wild soon barge in with a group of soldiers but I still feared that I would die before he arrived. I did not doubt his love for me or his prowess at finding out information but Roseline was apparently really evil. After all, she had held Juliet for many months now and we had still not managed to catch her. Instead, she had trapped me too. I still found it very difficult wrapping my head around the fact that Rosy was the villain. Maybe this was some sort of prank. Where were the cameras hidden and when would this cruel joke ever end? I looked down at my belly and the vivid memory of her kicking me with so much aggression came to me. I shuddered. There was no way that had been an act. I didn't mean to cry b
