The Alpha's Catalyst Perfect lie
MARCUS P.O.V"I promise, I didn't have anything to do with it," Stiles wobbled."I didn't ask if you had anything to do with it. I am asking who gave it to you?" I said with a frown on my face. His silence after my question concealed more answers than he could ever give. He might not have been in collaboration with the person who sent this to me but he definitely knows something.I frowned in anger as I looked away from him to the clock. It was already fifteen minutes before it strikes twelve so I let go of him.I walked to the table where my wrist watch was as i picked it up."Where are you going?" Stiles asked curiously but ignoring his question I approached my bedside cupboard where I had placed the blue bracelet.Staring at the bracelet I recalled what Silas said to me before he leaving. 'You have to put it on before going to see Eddie Lindsey…. I won't tell you what it does so I guess you will figure it out yourself,'"Where are you going?" Stiles’ voice called me out of my thoug
The Alpha's Catalyst Search for answers: part one
ALICIA'S P.O.VI was seated on a sofa chair in the sitting room of my house with a few pictures of the memories me and Eddie had with my late mother from when I was only about five years old.Even though many years have passed, I still miss her. I remember her singing me to bed almost every night and most nights she would always tell me about these beautiful stories. At times the stories were hideous and the rest of the time they were full of beauty.I still remember how I yearned for more and the sad face I made each moment I got disappointed."Such memories," I whispered.I was currently staring at the photo she and Eddie took with me on a horse. That was the first time I visited the zoo. At sight of the picture I got a flashback of all that took place that noon. I remember pulling Eddie's by the pants to get his attention and when I pointed at the horse I could sense my mom smiling at me."I miss you mom," I whispered, then took away the photo as I set my eyes on the next one. In t
The Alpha's Catalyst Why
ALICIA'S P.O.V"Please sit," She said, making her way to the chair beside Silas as she sat down and her eyes were fixed on me.I observed her attitude and they were beyond measure. There was no doubt about her beauty and elegance but her attitude and body language were quite immature and one couldn't help but wonder how Silas was comfortable with her acting the way she was.From the looks on his face he didn't care any less. It seemed like it was okay with him so I convinced myself it shouldn't be taken too personally. Come to think of it, maybe that could be her personality and because I had a mother that was a little more decent didn't mean the parents of others had to be."So… Tell me, what did you want to ask?" Suzy asked as her eyes lit expectantly."Is it okay that I am here? if you wish I can give you two some privacy," Silas said."No, it's fine," I answered, then looked again at his mother. "I just wanted to know if perhaps we might have met before,""Of course darling. We me
The Alpha's Catalyst The factory: strange perception
MARCUS P.O.VAfter my conversation with Alicia I escorted her out of the hotel until we arrived at a crossroad where she took a cab leaving back to her house.I would have loved to escort her to her doorstep but I couldn't because I knew we had a stalker watching us just a few meters away."You can come out now Silas," I said as soon as the taxi drove off. Under the night sky Silas walked out of the shadows as he stopped about five feet away.I could still see him struggle with the irritation. His hands were handing down and his eyes were very visible."I can see now that nothing stands between you and her," he said."What are you doing here?" I asked."Nothing," he replied. "I don't see anything wrong with checking up on my old classmate,"I got agitated as soon as he said those words as I zoomed towards him. I lifted my hand to strike him but seeing he didn't quiver or prevent me I stopped my hands.My angry eyes were firm on him with my right hand hanging in the air."I don't think
The Alpha's Catalyst The factory: Alpha Wade and the Wade's law
MARCUS P.O.VThe winds were still boisterous and without doubt I knew if I were human the snow hood I was in wouldn't be able to prevent me from the cold.It was still snowing heavily while I ventured into the factory. There was no one there, probably they didn't show up as a result of the forecast that today's weather was going to be intense.I stuck my hands into my side pocket while I forged ahead. My face was forward but my ears were alert; at least sharp enough to filter the noise of the boisterous wind from the chatter of anything that crossed my part.Although there was no sight of any visible threat, I was sure I was not alone, I had company and in fact they were numerous. I have not been attacked, rather I have just ventured into the territory of a rival pack.Strolling all the way forward I picked up my first signal. I was being followed. I knew so well that fighting back wouldn't do me any good because I was at their mercy so I stopped."I know you are out there, I can sens
The Alpha's Catalyst Brave actions
ALICIA'S P.O.VFirstly, Silas’s mother called me a stinging red wine. From our conversation earlier it was obvious that she was hiding something from me. Even when I mentioned the name Flynn her eyelashes flickered.There was definitely something wrong and I have to find out what it is. After all, I am the daughter of a cop, so I have to handle this myself.I didn't know I would find myself in this position but I had to keep my eyes on Suzy. I had to find out the truth.That morning it was still snowing boisterously and I was in a cab a few meters away from her house. I was waiting for Suzy to leave the house and when she did I instructed the cab driver to follow her vehicle.We followed her from a distance, the ride seemed unending and the road was unfamiliar. I didn't know such a place existed in California. It was lonely and further away from the city.I watched her vehicle stop before a large estate as she stepped out of the car then walked in through the gate.I paid the cabdrive
The Alpha's Catalyst Almost
MARCUS P.O.V"Marcus, Marcus," I heard Alicia’s voice in my head followed by beautiful sounds of her laughter. I was having the most beautiful dream about her before my eyes opened and I realized I was alone in a small room.Still feeling dizzy I hovered my eyes around at the shelves which were on either side then I glanced at my wrist only to realize that I was currently on drip.My head ached when I made attempts to sit up and the ache was backed up with flashbacks of what had happened to me earlier in the oil factory.Struggling, I gently put my feet on the floor. Sitting upright I heard the screeching sound of the door."Marcus, you are awake," Stiles said barging into the room as he approached the bed where I was seated."What is this place?" I asked."It's an animal clinic. You were badly injured and needed urgent treatment so I brought you here,:"An animal clinic?" I lift my gaze to him with a frown on my face."What is wrong with it? Would you have rather prepared that I went
The Alpha's Catalyst Secretes
ALICIA'S P.O.V"What would you like to be offered," I asked Marcus as soon as we walked in. Not getting any feedback I turned to him only to meet his constant stare. "Why are you staring at me that way?""What way?" He returned the question to me then flinched, taking his gaze to the television set."You were giving me the look," I answered."What look?""The kind of look you give to someone when you like them,""Well you should know by now that I love you," He said idly while approaching the television set."Hmm… I guess I won't get used to you saying that anytime soon," I replied. I walked to the fridge as I poured in two glasses of pineapple drink. Walking back to the sitting room I found him seated on a sofa chair with the remote control. The television was on and there was a movie currently playing.Staring at me he tapped the vacant space beside him. I chuckled as I sat by his side and handed him a glass of drink. I leaned my head on his shoulder.This is how I like it. His scen

The Alpha's Catalyst THE PERFECT LIFE
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
The Alpha's Catalyst INHERITANCE
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
The Alpha's Catalyst BLOOD MOON; THE LAST TRY
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
The Alpha's Catalyst BLOOD MOON; THE DAY WE FEARED
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
The Alpha's Catalyst EXTREME PREPARATION
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
The Alpha's Catalyst TURNING EIGHTEEN; PART THREE
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
The Alpha's Catalyst TURNING EIGHTEEN; PART TWO
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
The Alpha's Catalyst RESOLVING GUILT; RECONCILIATION
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
