The Alpha's Concubine 47
Sephora walked with her head high, trying her best to ignore the judgmental eyes that followed her every move. The warmth of the sun beat down on her face and made her feel vulnerable and exposed. As she walked, she could year the hushed whispers of the people around her, discussing the unfortunate incidence that had happened. It's been five days since it all happened, five days since her image got destroyed. She had been locked up for four days and only got released the previous night. Since then, her life has never been the same. She could feel the respect the people once had for her, vanishing.It irked her to know a bad image had been attached to her name. It made her feel betrayed.She took in a deep breath as she approached the field and found him there - training. Her steps slowed down,and her heart raced in her chest. She watched nervously as he trianed alone against a log of wood, the rays of sunlight filtering through the trees and illuminating his muscular form. She fou

All eyes danced around the Alpha Prince as he strode into the room, his shoulders held high with regal poise. The sound of his boots echoed against the floor, and his face was as stony as always."I do not think she deserves those questions, Alpha Maverick," he said suddenly when he got to the head of the table.The people expressed surprise, including Maverick, who wondered if Czar had heard his words.In a tone as cold as an arctic wind, Czar added: "Lady Masha here is a wife to this family; she should not be embarrassed that way."He lowered himself to a seat, dropping the jaws of half of the people in the room.Masha's cheeks warmed up in surprise. Did Czar just speak up for her? Again?Edgily, she took a seat. But Alpha Maverick was greatly offended. How could Czar counter him in public? A little boy he had carried in his arms when his sister birthed him. All of a sudden, he's now a man and feels he can talk back at him.He clenched his fists under the table. Enough of the humili

"You really want to pay?" Arabella asked, amused.Of course, her brother was rich enough to buy the entire market if he wanted; she was just surprised because he hardly ever cared.Czar glanced at Torak, who had disappointment all over his face, before turning to Mace behind him."Pay for it.""Yes, My Prince."Masha wanted to thank him, but he walked away before she could."Do not feel bad, Torak. There's still a lot I'd like to get from here," Arabella beamed.When Mace was done paying, the seller packed up the jewelry, and they all left happily."Why don't we try out some nice meals? I am sure there's a lot you would love," Arabella suggested."Sure, I have been salivating since we got here."Masha looked around and spotted Czar at a different cart, staring at some fabrics. It was obvious he hated mingling; it made her wonder why he had come all the way with them.Mace followed them, and this act angered Torak a lot. He knew Czar was intentionally keeping a trail on him to prevent

Masha's chest tightened, as though an invisible weight was pressing down on her. She couldn't think properly. "Masha?" Arabella held her hands, looking very worried. "What is wrong? Why are you acting this way?" She had no idea Masha was eavesdropping on the Alphas' conversations. Blinking several times, Masha forced herself back to reality and looked at Arabella, but her throat was too constricted to speak. "Hey, talk to me," Arabella added in a hushed tone. Masha was too petrified and did not know what to say. Why would the Alphas be plotting such a thing against the King? Why would they want to kill him? Arabella held her hands and shook her one more time, but she couldn't bring herself to say what her ears had heard. How would she even reveal to her that her uncle and the rest of the Alphas were plotting against her father? Wouldn't she look stupid? "It's nothing," she swallowed hard and said. "I um... I will just go to my room now. I need some sleep." Before Arabella could

Masha could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on her. Her heart throbed nervously and her legs had began to shake. "What's she talking about?" "It's poisoned?" "How could the King's drink be poisoned?" Murmurs and whispers rippled through the crowd. Masha forced her gaze down as she couldn't bring herself to look at anyone in the face, especially the Alphas. "What are you talking about, Masha?" King Gregory asked. "My drink is poisoned?" He chuckled and looked around. He was surrounded by his most trusted people. Who would possibly think of poisoning him? "Who would dare poison me, Masha?" Masha couldn't say a word. She was beginning to wonder if she made the wrong decision. How does she go ahead to expose the Alphas? "You need to speak up, young lady," one of the Alphas grunted. "You just disrupted a very important moment. How is the King's drink poisoned?" Expectations were high, Masha realized she had to spill the truth or get implicated. Besides, why should murderers l

NIGHT NATION COVENThe only source of light in the room was the flickering candle on the wooden desk, casting shadows on the wall. Lord Galadriel sat on an old wooden chair, his heart nervous as he held the scroll in his hand.The previous day, he had gotten a letter from King Gregory, demanding explanations for Jaha's escape. And today he got a letter from Jaha.Lord Galadriel was disturbed. Although he had expected Jaha to reach out to him soon, now that it was finally happening, it got him worried.Taking a deep breath, he opened the scroll and scanned the words on the parchment, and his brows furrowed as he read through each line. What?"Lord Galadriel, I had expected my first letter to you to be about war."But I believe that is the reason we have children to save us in times of difficulty."Earlier, I encountered your precious daughter, Masha, and took an interest in her. Unfortunately, she is married to a wolf - our enemy."But I do not think that should be a problem. I wish to

"I need an explanation, father!" Torak gritted as he stood before Alpha Maverick in his room. "I need you to tell me why in the name of Selene you tried to poison the King?!"The room was dim, and Alpha Maverick ha rti look out the window to me sure no one as around. He walked back to his son who had so much fury in his eyes. "You need to calm down, Torak. I will explain everything...""Well, you better start now because an innocent lady is locked up there because of you!" He half & yelled, then took in a deep breath when he realized that was dangerous. "If you were not my father, I would have said I regretted helping you out in the first place" he added huskily with so much resentment. "Watch your tongue, Torak. I had my reasons," Maverick hissed. "What reason? Because the Kind has an agreement with the vampires? You have always been against it, father, but I just do not understand why! If I had not showed up this morning and advised you to really get rid of the poison, you woul

Alpha Maverick hated the fact that he was trying to prevent Masha's execution. If it weren't for his son's demands, he would have fought against everyone to make sure the vampire got killed. He'd have made sure of that.Damn Torak!"My King," Alpha Ace, faced the King. "I strongly advise you to ignore everything being said by these people right here. They are her friends. No matter what they say,it doesn't change the fact that Lady Masha committed a great offense by accusing all four of us of attempted murder. The evidence is clear, and if you let her go unpunished, this will give others the mindset to do worse!""He is absolutely correct," Alpha Ryker added. "Our loyalty will die with you. How dare a mere vampire accuse us of plotting against you? It is clearly impossible! In my opinion,she is simply here to cause confusion and disunity, like she's already doing. Before her arrival, was there ever a day when Prince Czar stood up against his own uncle and called him a man capable of m

Seconds passed, and Masha could still not find her words. She felt trapped in front of him, unable to look away despite how nervous she felt. Czar finally took a step back, his steely gaze on her. "I thought so too." He mumbled and started towards the door. Masha sprang to her feet and ran to him, pulling his wrist just before he'd reach for the door. Czar looked at her and found nothing but deep fear eating her up. Her gaze was on the floor."Y... You don't have to leave." She swallowed hard. "I understand what you want. Ac... Actually, I thought you'd be irritated by me. But...if you're not..." She forced her eyes from the floor to look at him. "... I'd want it as well, my prince. I'd... want to have this experience with you."Czar turned properly to face her. That was when she let go of his wrist and returned her gaze to the floor. "Are you sure?" His voice was low. "You need to be certain you want this, Masha."She nodded nervously, gulping down the lump in her throat. Her h

Masha, Arabella and Kona spent a long time in the guest room, and the whole time, Arabella did most of the talking. She never knew Arabella could actually be so funny. She kept cracking jokes and making Kona laugh enough. When it was night, they decided it was best to leave him to sleep. Masha kissed him goodnight - on the cheek - before leaving with Arabella. "Your brother is so welcoming." Arabella remarked as they walked down the hallway. Her cheeks were all red. "Are you sure? If you ask me, I'd say it was you who was welcoming." She laughed."Huh? That's not true. Don't make it sound like I was throwing myself on him." She puckered her lips. "I hope you're not catching feelings for my brother, dear Arabella. I'll tell you one thing, that guy is a flirt.""That's not true. He doesn't look like one."There was a little silence between them. "Well, I am not catching feelings for him. I am merely being friendly."They got to Arabella's door. "Let's call it a night, Masha. See y

Czar didn't know what had happened before his arrival for the room, but seeing the way Masha and his mother stood apart, and the way Masha's hand was holding her cheek with shock in her eyes, he could easily fix the puzzle. He couldn't comprehend how it made him feel, knowing his mother had laid hands on Masha. Whatever it was, it didn't feel good. Eve shifted her gaze to Czar immediately, trying to get rid of the repugnant look on her face. "Son, you're here. I actually came for you "Masha's hand was already down from her face, but displeasure shadowed her countenance. The queen's slap still hurt, and she felt so much bitterness to know she couldn't retaliate. If it had been anyone else but the queen, Absalom knows she'd have done something about it. Czar noticed how Masha kept her gaze glued to the floor. The part of her face that had been hit had turned crimson already. Anger shadowed her face, she didn't even try to pay homage to him."I need to have a word with you." His vo

Mace stood like a sentinel, his hands clasped behind his back, watching in silence as the Prince drew his bowstring taut. The training field was empty and quiet, and that was because Czar had requested to be alone. His shoulders commanded the space as he extended his arms towards the target. And in a seamless motion, he released the string, sending the arrow perfectly to hit his target which was a wooden board in front of him. He sighed in approval, took another arrow and worked it's way into his bow."The test has been conducted." Mace said suddenly. "And it was positive."Czar didn't spare him a glance, neither did his fingers freeze at any point as he aimed his bow at his target and pulled the string. It went perfectly to the board again."Are you surprised?" He finally asked, taking out another arrow. "Well... I'd bet even you were surprised." Mace chuckled. Czar's face remained cold as he shot at his target again and turned to get another arrow. "Is that the reason you have

Masha's eyelids fluttered open, allowing the soft morning light to gently caress her face. As her mind slowly emerged from the haze of sleep, she began to piece together the fragments of her memory, causing a mix of embarrassment and anxiety to swirl within her. A jagged breath escaped her throat. Holding on tight to the duvet on her, she darted her eyes around the room, and only then did she notice Czar had been there all along. She gasped, taking her eyes away immediately. Suddenly catching sight of him made her heart race faster and her breath come quicker. He was standing in front of his table, dressed in a black flowing robe that touched the door. And the way he linked his hands behind his back gave him a kind of 'bad lord' look. She couldn't look at him. Not anymore. But in that mini second she had looked in his direction, she noticed something else on his table. The table wasn't occupied with books and scripts like it used to. Instead, it was occupied with various meals. T

As Czar's hands closed around hers, Masha's whole body trembled with fear and anxiety. The room seemed to shrink, and no matter how hard she wanted to, she couldn't brace herself for what was about to happen. Czar turned her around so she could back him, and slowly, he loosened her dress and pulled down her sleeves until it was below her shoulders. He gave a momentarily pause, then continued steadily until her full boobs came bouncing out of the dress. A chill ran through Masha. At that point, she was tempted to push him off and just run off, but she wasn't ready for how embarrassing that would be. Czar left the dress to fall freely to her legs, leaving her in her all natural form. It surprised him that she had no underwear. She had really come prepared. Her back was a sight to behold. The curves of her buttocks, firm and mesmerizing, made it so difficult for him to resist to grab them. Her hair, black and glossy, cascaded down her bare back, inviting him in. A beauty she was - h

The darkness enveloped the room, casting shadows that danced along the walls.Czar sat before his study table, his figure bathed in the flickering glow of candlelight. His eyes were fixed on the pages of a book, but his mind wandered far from its words.It's been a very long time since morning, yet Masha was yet to come to the room. He knew she was scared and not ready, but he did not expect her to shy away that much.He tried to concentrate on the book in his hands, but the more he tried, the more the thoughts of her kept messing with his head. It was all his fault. He knew he was making a mistake when he started showing concern.A long time passed, and suddenly he heard approaching footsteps.Strangely, he could recognise the sound of her footsteps like a whisper in the depths of his consciousness.When the door opened and she got revealed, he was almost sure that time had halted. She was adorned in a long black dress, its flowing fabric clinging to her every contour. He recognised

Czar moved with an icy gait into his room, his hands fisted beside him. His mind was a mess, and as he lowered himself on the bed, Mace took a long stare at his face."I cannot believe this," he scoffed. "This is a very big problem, my prince. What do you plan to do about it?"Czar said nothing. He just clasped his palms and gazed into space."There are so many excuses you could have made," Mace went on. "So many lies. Why did it have to be that? A lie so complicated?""That was the fastest lie I could think of," Czar answered, his voice a little rough. "I had no idea my father would never believe me."He rose from the bed, moving to confront the window."Father sounded too sure. I have a feeling he might have been spying on me," Czar added, his piercing eyes gazing out the window."Perhaps. Or maybe he's just very sure that you are not so free with the vampire yet. You know, you make it quite obvious." Mace shrugged."For now, you just need to think of a way to get over this situatio

Czar mixed the treatment in the bowl, and by the time he was done, Masha was still on the bed, fully dressed. He expected Junior to be a little difficult for her, but at that moment, it seemed like he didn't have the time. He dropped the bowl on the table and approached her. "On your feet," he instructed. Masha felt a little intimidated. He looked like he was offended by something. She gulped nervously and forced herself to stand, giving him her back because she knew he wanted to help her with the knots in her dress. Although they had yet to consummate their marriage, it didn't change the fact that he was her husband and had the right to her body. An icy finger cascaded down her spine as she felt him manoeuvre the zipper of her dress. As soon as it was brought down, she supported her dress against her chest, not wanting her boobs to fall out. For a long time, she felt Czar's eyes on her back, and it made her wonder if her injuries were that bad. "On the bed." He moved away from
