EUDORA.Zena hesitated after saying the first few words that will take me into her world and maybe even understand her and her relationship with her brother better.I realized I never even stopped to think about how she became blind. I just found it fascinating, how she was able to find her way around her weakness while mine has wrecked me over and over. I settled beside her on the bed, touching her arm reassuringly. To let her know that I was willing to hear her story despite myself. She continued. “I was born in my brother’s absence and then, I didn’t even know I had a brother. No one spoke of him.” It must be true then. That Alpha Rex was locked up at a really tender age for her to not have known him while growing up.“I was young but I could tell our family wasn’t perfect. I would always wake up to my father and mother arguing and as I slowly began to make sense of the world around me, I realized most of their arguments were about this brother no one has told me about.” She
ALPHA REX. “Do you often dream about someone you shouldn’t be dreaming about?” I’ll probably regret asking this question from my Beta who never takes anything serious unless it has to do with the pack. His expression was that of amusement when he turned to face me. I knew he was about to open his darn mouth to say something to piss me off. “Don’t even think about it, Logan. Just answer the damn question.” I said quickly before he could open that large mouth of his. Sometimes, he makes me wonder if I was crazy when I chose him to be my Beta of all the males available but another side of me knew it was because he was the only one who was willing to be by my side as my Beta.As soon as I returned from and took over, most of the males in the pack moved out with their families including the Beta families that it was customary for me to choose from. No one was willing to be under the control of the beast that was me. I didn’t care at first. No, I didn’t even care until the end. I didn’
ALPHA REX I stood still in Eudora’s room, looking around like the answer to the questions in my mind would be found somewhere in the corners of her room. I really needed to know why she has reacted to me that way when she has never done that before. Wasn’t she in my bed just a few nights ago? Yes, that was probably a mistake on my part but she had woken up on that same bed with me and asides coming to the realization that we’d shared the same bed, there was nothing unusual about her. Was it the nightmare? Leticia stepped into the room with me. The painting was almost done and she had only two days left before she returned to her pack. Since the last time I told her about what had happened at the MoonBorn pack, things have been a little awkward and I didn’t know for which one of us or why exactly things turned out that way. “What happened?” She asked after allowing me a brief moment of reflection on what had just happened. “You saw it.” I said, matter-of-factly, facing her. She s
LEUDORA. Alpha Rex stared at me like I had grown two heads. Something flickered in his eyes but it was gone faster than I could tell what exactly it was. Maybe it was shock, shock that comes from the fact that just like I had asked to stay a few days ago, I was asking to leave now, only this time, I wasn’t on my knees, I didn’t have to be. I didn’t have to beg to leave just like I had begged to stay because it was easier now. After all, he never really wanted me around and taking care of him was a part of earning my pay which was having a roof over my head and having food to eat. “Do you know what you’re talking about?” Alpha Rex asked after a stretched moment of silence. I looked over my shoulder to be sure Zena was still there. I felt her presence now more than ever and it made me turn back to look at Alpha Rex.“Yes. Yes, I do.” My voice was just as I and Zena had rehearsed a few minutes before we came back in here. Keep it strong. She’d said. Don’t stutter. Once you do, he wo
ALPHA REX. PAST♣️♣️♣️My first day at the pack’s kindergarten was such a memorable one that as soon as I got back, I went to my room and laid all my bed, sulking all day. My mother got back from Luna business that day and I heard as she asked everyone around the house about me until she came looking for me herself in my room. The moment I heard her come in, I pulled my duvet over my entire small frame as if to hide for her but my reaction was so funny to her that she chuckled.I didn’t plan on being funny. I wanted to come off as pissed. She came to sit on my bed and slowly pulled the duvet off me. Her silver eyes peered down at me, they were calm and “Rex, did you not like your first day at school?” She asked, playing with my hair. Some of my anger dissipated at her calm voice and soothing fingers. My mother was perfect.I shook my head to answer her. “You’ll have to use your words, young man. I can’t tell if that’s a no or a yes.” She said playfully. “No, I didn’t like it.” I
ALPHA REXI didn’t exactly plan on being caught eavesdropping and not in another Alphams home either since I am used to having my way, so I didn’t know how to react to their incredibly annoying faced son, looking ag me in a questionable manner. Conan was no doubt the same age as I was, two more inches and he’d be on an equal eye level with me. He didn’t have what it took to be intimidating even though that was the look he was aiming for. Probably because he didn’t spend half his life locked up in a dungeon with crazy doctors sticking needles into him every day.Instead, he probably spent most of his life being coddled by his parents. Probably sent to the best college out there and told he had an important role waiting for him as soon as his father becomes too old for him to keep ruling the pack.I knew people like him and I also knew how to deal with them. The look in his eyes told me he’d known I was eavesdropping on them before he had even seen me. Hard to hide an Alpha’s scent an
EUDORA.I do not regret returning to the Bluecoven pack. I do not have the sudden urge to return to the pack where I’ve spent most of the days being miserable. I do not regret coming back to the man who has rejected me. No, it wasn’t regret I felt. But I did feel something, and it started from the moment Alpha Rex turned his back on me and walked away. It got worse as I sat to eat dinner with Alpha Osolo and his family. It was just like old times, except this time it felt like a shadow was looming over us at the dinner table. I couldn’t even work out my appetite because even though it’s just as before, it doesn’t feel like it. I expected the awkwardness. I prepared myself for it because it was inevitable. I didn’t expect less from the reunion of a girl who was sent off to become a plaything for an Alpha and the people who perpetrated it. I felt like a stranger. I was watched like one. I could feel the gaze of Alpha Oslo and Luna Eleanor, hot on me. I could tell they were disappoint
EUDORA “I missed you, Eudora.” I heard it the first time but it had me stunned. Too stunned to say a word and so I stared blankly at him, just long enough for him to repeat it again. I wanted to believe Conan so badly. His eyes held so much sincerity that I was really willing to forget how he’d betrayed me and totally changed towards me after he rejected me but I couldn’t easily forget a part of my past that hurts so much, could I? I couldn't easily forget the starting point of my misery. “Why?” I asked quietly, maybe a little too foolish too because I didn’t know what sort of answer I was expecting when I asked him that. He seemed to be thrown off guard too as he searched for words to say. He sighed.“Don’t be like that, Eudora. I know you’re mad at me and I totally understand that. I was…” he paused and sighed again, “I was a jerk.” He confessed sincerely. “But you have to understand that I couldn’t do anything to stop my parents. All they wanted was the best for me and the pa
