ALICIA P.O.V“Alicia, you have to calm down, it’s me, it’s Marcus,” he said demonstrating with his hands but to me none of that mattered. I knew that I wasn’t thinking straight but I couldn’t control the urge either.It was so strong, that great desire to rip a flesh apart was greater than my sense of reasoning at this point. For a while, I couldn’t grasp anything he was saying, all I could see was the movement of his lips but they were all idle to me.Staring at him, my nose picked up another strong scent close by. The urge became stronger and with a sharp grumble I ran after the scent. I knew that it was the scent of a human and even though this time it wasn’t Rina, the urge to kill didn’t fade.I heard rumblings behind me but I didn’t flicker. I kept my paws moving until I arrived at a cliff and just some meters away I spotted two couples and their little girl seated on the grass outside a tent.I didn't know much about them except that they looked as if they came camping but it sti
MARCUS P.O.V I am willing to bear the responsibility for what I did some years ago. It didn’t seem pleasant and it could steer up another complication but this was the right time to do it and with Alicia by my side, I am sure that everything was going to be fine.However that was not what concerned me the most. Something weird happened when I howled last night, something that I didn’t know how to tell Alicia. "Alicia, I have something to show you?" I said."What's that?" she asked."I can't explain it but you have to see it for yourself. Come with me," I said. I led her to a spare room inside our house. We walked inside as I approached Kelvin who was lying unconscious on the bed."Marcus… What is Kelvin doing here and why is he looking like that?" She asked.I heaved a sharp sigh then turned to her. "Remember when I told you that the howl of an Alpha attracts his pack?""Yes, I do," She answered."It turned out that when I howled last night it attracted Kelvin." "What do you mean?"
MARCUS P.O.VThe silence persisted for a while. I could tell that Stiles departure was something Alicia and I never wanted but I knew that it was for the best. "What's the reason for the silence? We didn't lose anyone and I could always come visiting," Stiles said. "I know," Alicia answered, taking up her fork again. "It's a pity because I was only getting to know you better," She said."Marcus, knows me well," He said. "While you were trying to have your child, we were busy committing some hurtful crimes." "That's right, he was a good sidekick," I said and Immediately after my comment we heard a knock on the door. At the sudden sound on the door, the place went ice cold and we all stopped eating."Are we expecting a visitor?" Alicia asked me."No, we are not," I answered and looking at their faces none of them had invited anyone either. "I'll go check it out," I said, dropping my fork on the table as I left for the door.I looked through the CCTV camera but there was no one there.
MARCUS P.O.V Now we had another enemy on our trail. It was even terrible because he was not an outsider but it was a memento member of my pack, and someone we considered family."I'm sorry for that. My brother can be anything but I don't think he is capable of taking the life of anyone," Katherine apologized on behalf of Kalvin."That is no longer the brother you know," I said to Katherine as she gave me an uncertain look. "He has killed someone and he meant what he said." "That can't be true," Katherine replied instantly. "I saw his eyes, Katherine. They were blue instead of gold. The funny thing about werewolves is that you can tell if this had killed someone before or not. The eyes of the innocent ones are always gold but when they take a life their eyes turn blue," I said."No, that can't be true," Katherine said, shaking her head in disbelief. I could smell fear engulf her. I knew that she was afraid of starting a war with her own brother."No one is blaming your brother for w
MARCUS P.O.V The reason Mark called for a police artist was obvious. He needed a sketch of the beast the witness saw. If the witness gives an accurate sketch then that would be another big win for the cops, however it's unfortunate that the witness has no idea how much trouble he was getting himself into.Werewolves are eager to execute anyone who they consider a threat and it didn’t matter whether their victim was still a threat or not. "Oh, and look who we have here…. Marcus Dominick," I turned to see who raised the alarm and unfortunately it was Sharma Atluri, the Detective from India. His cheerful smile creeped me out. I didn’t know if his greeting was a sign of peace or if he was only another opportunity for new discovery. The last time we had a conversation, it didn't end well.I still recall the words and his suspicions that the culprit of these crimes could also be part of the investigation. That was a clear message to me and I wonder if he had found anything yet."Marcus,
MARCUS P.O.VFear gripped me at the thought of what would happen If Eddie knew that I was a werewolf. If he finds out that the fate he fought so hard to free his daughter from found its way to her despite how hard he tried to stop it, he would be furious or perhaps worse.From my observation, It was clear that the old man wasn't fine. His actions showed that something was bothering him. It's one thing to know that you were deceived but it's another thing when you find out that the person who played you was someone you trust so much.I am suspicious but I am not certain if my suspicions are true. If Eddie knew that I had deceived him, he would never talk to me nor would he have allowed me to glance at the sketched work he got from the witness. I don't think he is trying to hold back and even if he is, it is only a matter of minutes before the truth comes out. I don't think Eddie can hold grudges for too long."Marcus," The sudden call startled me as I turned around to see Atluri."What
MARCUS P.O.V'What are you going to ask her, Atluri?' I thought to myself with my eyes on him. I also hated that Margaret's daughter was taken away from her, I also wanted to stop everything that was going on but I was scared for my life and especially that of Alicia and our son Maxwell. I can't let them hurt my family. I must save my family at all cost even if it means putting my life at stake. "From the previous information you gave me, you said that your daughter was seventeen years old, you also mentioned that she just graduated from high-school here in the city," Atluri asked, taking his gaze off his jotter to her. "Yes, that is correct," Margaret answered."Good," Atluri heaved a sigh then continued. "You also mentioned that after you and your husband got divorced she has spent all her time with you since you and your husband had never been in touch for many years now. Is that correct?" "Yes," She replied."This is means that you must know he pretty well," "Yes, I know my d
ALICIA P.O.V I was seated inside my room with my child when I heard the sound of my doorbell. I knew that Marcus stopped by earlier but there was no reason for him to ring the doorbell since he has a key to the house.Flynn and Rina would not be the ones either, neither could it be Katherine. I gently placed my child on the bed then headed downstairs. I approached the CCTV camera and on the screen I saw a young man who looked like he was in his thirties. He looked decent but I was sure I have never seen that face before not to speak of the fact that he looked indian. I was greeted by his cheerful smile as soon as I opened the door. "Good day sir, how may I help you?" I asked."Hello, my name is Sharma Atluri, I am a Detective who works with the sheriff Mark. I believe that you are Alicia Lindsey, the only daughter of Eddie Lindsey," He said."Yes, I am," I replied."I knew I was right. You look so much like your father," He said. "May I come in?" "Sure," I said, making way for hi
MARCUS P.O.V"You are already engaged?" Emily said in surprise."Yes, mom, but you have nothing to worry about. We have already fixed a date to come visit you in person," She said."That's great news," I said."What about you, Maxwell? Do you have any charming Princess you would like to tell us about?" Zoey asked."No, I haven't really thought about it lately," he replied."Hold on, are you…" "Don't even complete that statement," Maxwell interrupted Zoey. "I've been occupied with other things and I am sure the right time will come." The place was silent for a while. "I'm sorry, I almost forgot how hard it is when viewing the world from your eyes. It must have been dark," Zoey said."It was, but thanks to my parents who gleamed light on me," Maxwell replied. "We haven't told you yet but finding a partner for Maxwell isn't as easy as it is for you if not he would have found one by now," I said. "For humans they get to choose who they want to be with but for werewolves, there can be o
MARCUS P.O.VIt took us thirty minutes to arrive at the main city and as soon as we arrived at the hotel someone was already waiting for us by the door.“You must be Marcus Dominick,” the man said.“Yes I am,” I replied.“Mr. Lucas, is inside, he has been waiting for you, please come with me,” the man said and I followed him inside. Alicia, Maxwell and Stiles were also with me.We went upstairs as we walked through a fancy door which opened up to a large and furnished room. There was a large round table at the center of the room and an elderly man was seated on one of the chairs.“Mr. Lucas, your guests have arrived,” the man who brought us in announced.Lucas’ eyes lit the moment he saw us. “Oh, please take a seat,” he said with a cheerful smile on his face and we all did. “This must be your beautiful wife Alicia Lindsey.”“Yes, she is,” I replied then furrowed my eyebrows in uncertainty. “How did you know?” I asked.He lifts his eyebrows. “Well, news flies these days, especially giv
ALICIA P.O.VIt hurts so much to think I was wrong but it hurts even more to give up trying. I had always fought to have even if it was a moment with my son but now at the verge of losing everything I realized I had made a terrible mistake.I saw his deadly fangs above me; they were ready to rip off my bones. His claws were more painful than anything I had ever felt. I had lost him to the darkness. All these could have been avoided if not for my greed. If I had sacrificed him earlier, I would have been able to save everyone.I was about to take my last breath when I heard a clash. I opened my eyes and Maxwell was off me. I looked sideways to see Marcus struggling to hold him back from getting to me.‘No,’ I thought to myself as I transformed into a human. I struggled on my feet. If anyone had to die while trying to stop him then it would be me.“Maxwell, stop please,” I yelled but my voice ended in a whisper. While approaching, I watched Maxwell hit Marcus severally until he returned
MARCUS P.O.VFinally it’s time, the dark clouds had covered the sky and it was only thirty minutes before the blood moon rises. We were all in the woods, far deep into the island and as far away as possible from the main city.There were a lot of us. Alicia and I were only standing about ten feet away from Maxwell while Ronald, Wilfred and Flynn were chaining him to the trees. We found the best spot in the forest with the largest trees and we also used multiple large iron chains in hopes that they will be able to hold him until his transformation is complete.I could already see Maxwell’s beastly eyes as he kept glaring at us.“Ronald, hurry up,” I said.“It’s almost ready,” he answered and after a while they both returned to where I was standing.“Max, you have to stay calm, you can do this,” Alicia said.“No, I can’t,” Maxwell replied. “Save me, please… Mom,” he called out.I held her back when she was about to take a step. She looked at me and I wagged my head gently."Dad, why are
MARCUS P.O.VNo one has ever done this before and I won't be doing either if the matters at hand were not delicate. Thus time Aracely won't be the one coming to me, I would be meeting her myself."Aracely!" I called as soon as I arrived at her secret grounds."Marcus," I heard her voice behind and I turned to see her standing just three feet away. "What are you doing, you should not be here." "I need answers, Aracely. Enough of the preamble… tell me what I should expect tomorrow," I said."I have already told you everything you have to know. Tomorrow will crown his fate and the chance he will be good is slim, it might not work so you must be prepared," She replied."No, let me look at it myself," I said."That has never happened since the history of Alpha’s, you cannot use that sacred tool," She said.“It doesn’t matter now. If my son falls into the darkness he will destroy you and burn down this place and there will be nothing left…”“Enough! Marcus,” she interrupted me. “You have a
MARCUS P.O.V“Hi everyone, my name is Maxwell Dominick and I am only doing a reintroduction in case of those of you that might have heard of me but never seen me in person. As we all know today is my birthday and I am entirely grateful to all of you for being here but most especially to my awesome parents Mr and Mrs Dominick. They have always stood by me all through, most especially my mother Alicia Dominick…”I heaved a sigh as I closed my eyes in disappointment at the last sentence he made. I looked at Alicia and I could see the huge smile over her face. I could tell that she was enjoying it. I thought I was Maxwell’s favourite but it ended up being her.“Most especially your mother, huh,” I chuckled, then looked back at the stage.“I am grateful that despite the challenges she was tough enough to face it and determined to hold on to me until the end, even if it could have killed her. When everyone gave up on me she persisted. I love you so much mom and I will love you until the end
MARCUS P.O.VI walked inside the building while holding Alicia’s hand. The hall was filled up with both humans and werewolves as rock music filled the air. There was no strange pack present; I made sure that the sentinels never allowed any werewolf from another tribe to venture into the island.Everything was coordinated just like it should be and I trusted my pack to be great at blending in with the humans without causing any arousal, and that was all thanks to my late parents who taught them well.“Marcus, look who showed up,” Alicia said. I looked only to see that it was Katherine. I saw the excitement over Alicia’s face.“Will she be a burden to you?” I asked.“Are you kidding me,” Alicia said with a frown on her face.“Sorry, I was only joking, go on, go and have fun with your friend, I will keep an eye on things,” I said to her.“Okay, please watch Max but don’t spy on him,” she said.“Yes ma’am, but you know that they both mean the same thing…” I was yet to complete my statemen
ALICIA'S P.O.VSix years passed after we reconciled with Meredith and her son Daniel. Even after these six years Marcus had not retrieved the briefcase from Lucas. However, he Still assumed his position as the Alpha of his father's pack.He wasn't the only ruler of the pack since I was ruling beside him. To me it all seemed like a dream. And when speaking of a dream I am talking about the story of a feeble human who fell in love with a charming beast, a mortal chased and hunted by a pack for years was now ruling as Luna of the same pack that tried to kill her.Now the feeble mortal is known as the most revered Luna since the history of the Dominik's pack. And not just that, but far stronger than any Luna who had ever ruled beside the Alpha.Looking back from where I am I was grateful for everything that I had gone through. All my efforts were worth it and even my son, the one they say will doom the world had the most charms than anyone else.I was not only glad to have him but I am al
ALICIA’S P.O.VThe pain of losing a child was terrible and it wasn’t something a parent would wish for. I couldn’t understand the level of pain the old lady was going through but could only imagine it. Even right now I feel sorry and indebted to her.The dark cloud had already covered the sky when Meredith escorted us out of the house. She wrapped her blanket around her body to protect her from the cold breeze and by the time we arrived at our car she looked down at Maxwell. “Thank you for showing me what you showed me earlier. It felt good to see her face again,” she said to him.“You are welcome ma’am. I know you needed it,” Maxwell replied.Hearing that got me curious but I guessed it was best that I don’t ask. I was okay as long as whatever he showed Meredith made her see things differently.“Guys, I think we have company,” Ronald alarmed us. I looked to see who he was speaking of and from the distance I saw a young man approaching with a bottle of drink in his hand.“Daniel... Ma
