Alexa’s POV…
“We’re under attack!!!” I suddenly heard the loud emergency bell off the pack house ringing through the halls. Panic and noise began as everyone forgot about what was currently going on, running helter-skelter as the intruders penetrated our walls and began killing anyone in sight. There were screams and chaos everywhere. I should be thankful for this intrusion, as the last thing I wanted was to pleasure alpha Collin. But now, come to think of it, maybe sucking an old man’s penis might have been better than having an untimely death. Alpha Collin forgot all about me as he pushed me away, pulling up his pants and running towards the stage exit. He ran to his death as the intruders surrounded all of the exits, and no one could escape without getting killed. I remained in the middle, finding my clothes nearby. There was no time to put them on, so I held them against my chest. Looking around, I found a small hole underneath the stage. It was big enough to crawl into, so I hid there, awaiting what would be my fate. More and more of our attackers stormed into the halls, and I watched as many of our pack members got killed, including some of the guests. Even though they’d treated me badly, I felt really sorry for them. Someone must have noticed me before as my hiding place suddenly got discovered on time; I was dragged out of the hole and forced on my knees. When I looked up to see who was standing there giving orders, shock overwhelmed me. My mate, my very own mate, was the reason for this attack. Why? I asked myself. He looked at me with such despite and anger written in his eyes, as a few hours later, the blue scorpion pack house had been completely taken over. Very few of the guests managed to escape, and the majority of the ones here were killed. The minority were spared and taken as prisoners. My father and I were part of the minority. He didn’t do it for mercy, though, as then, he let us know of his intentions to kill us later. “Should we kill her?” One of his men, whose entire clothes were stained with blood like the others, asked. “No, I want to be the one to do it myself. I want to kill them both in the most gruesome manner,” he answered, referring to me and my father. Why did he hate us so much? I wondered. When he noticed some of his men staring at me lustfully, he searched the ground for my clothes, throwing them at me. “Put them on now, and don’t try to do anything funny.” Was he being humorous? What could a naked, unarmed lady possibly do amid armed and dangerous bloodstained soldiers of an army? After putting on my clothes, I went back to my knees. I was right beside my father, who had his head bent down. He had so much regret written all over his face. He was the last thing I saw before I got blindfolded and taken away by the men. What could he have possibly done to my mate to result in such an attack from his pack? *** When I saw the light again, it was from a dimly lit bulb in the dungeon room. No doubt, I had been taken far away from my home and was now placed in the territory of the pack that had attacked us. My mate’s pack. I still didn’t know his name. Speak of the devil, and then he arrived. He was holding a large sword that was stained with blood. I wondered why he brought it here, perhaps to fulfil his earlier promise of killing me. He entered my dungeon room, still with that same look of spite at me. I just stared at him as I remained seated on the cold ground of my empty cell, preparing my mind for anything that would happen next. The next thing I knew, he dragged my hair and forced me to stand up. “Did your father not groom you to properly address your superiors?” He yelled at me. “When next I walk into a room, and you fail to stand up, I will punish you severely!” I bowed my head, apologizing, “I’m sorry,” it was more like pleading with him to let go of my hair as he yanked on it so hard, it hurt terribly. Seeing the pain he caused me, he let go of my hair and turned his back against me. “So, the beautiful princess Alexa turned out to be my mate. Of all the people in this world, the moon goddess chose for me to be with the number one woman I should despise the most. You are very lucky, Lexie. You would have been dead by now if you were not my mate.” So many questions reigned on my mind to ask him. I was scared to do so, but did it really matter? He would still kill me anyways. “Why?” He turned to face me. “Why what?” It was hard to bring the words from my mouth, but I needed to know, “why do you… hate me so much?” He suddenly burst into laughter before responding to me, “let me tell you a story, Lexie. Once upon a time, there was an alpha. His name was Mark, and he had a wife, a very beautiful one at that. Her name was Linda. They had two sons together, namely Evan and Logan. They lived peaceful lives, with alpha Mark choosing to rule within the confines of his territory and not trouble other pack’s peace, so long as no one bothered his pack. He chose not to involve in meaningless hassles by other pack leaders to claim as many territories as they could.” He saw the confused look on my face. He knew I must be wondering what all these tales were for, but that didn’t stop him from continuing. “But even with how peaceful alpha Mark and his family were, they still would not be left alone by other troublesome alphas that envied them, and one day the unexpected happened. Alpha Mark’s pack was attacked, with a lot of his men killed, a lot of his female followers raped and a lot of innocent young cubs sold into slavery. As if that was not enough, the attacker killed alpha Mark, his wife, Linda, and their first son, Evan, leaving only the second one, Logan, behind!” By now, my heart began to well up with emotions; it was like I knew where he was headed. “You must be wondering, what sort of wicked alpha would do such a thing to alpha mark, his pack and his family, right? Let me tell you the answer; it’s none other than your father, alpha Danister.” “And you are Logan,” I reasoned sadly. He smiled in response. “You are so smart; I must admit that the thought of not killing you yet sounded so tempting to me.” “But it must have happened a long time ago. Why did you choose to attack back just now?” “Because, my dear. I was only a teenager when I witnessed the heads of my family being chopped off like fresh meat. Since I was the sole heir, there was little I could do to defend my pack. It only made sense to wait until I was strong enough, till the day I would give Dan a taste of his own medicine. I trained endlessly for ten years, never losing guard until the perfect time came. Now, my revenge will finally be completed after I rid you of your life.” I got on my two knees, never expecting things to turn out this way, “please, alpha Logan. I beg of you, I am not the enemy here. I am your mate.” He raised his voice at me, “I don’t ever want to hear such words from your mouth again! You are not my mate, and you will never be! You are nothing but my enemy!” “I beg of you, sir. I know that my father’s actions aren’t justifiable. I might be his daughter, but please, believe me when I say that I’m not your enemy.” “You might say that, but your pack members claim otherwise. They all swore that you were just as rotten as their alpha. They claimed that the whole of today was nothing but a show to get the highest bidder for your hand.” I couldn’t believe any of what I was hearing. Just how bitter-minded were my pack member’s minds against me? “I swore that I was going to kill a lot of them today, but they claimed that it was the alpha and his daughter that were most responsible for all the evil-doings of the pack. They begged me for a second chance, stating I should kill you both instead.” “They’re lying! I never had anything to do with any of my father’s actions! I know he did your family wrong. I know he hurt your pack, but please, I beg you in the goddess’s name to show some mercy!” “I don’t believe you, Alexa. I must admit, I was almost deceived by what I saw today. It felt so unimaginable to see a princess being treated in such a manner. I should have known it was all just an act.” I was already in tears. “It wasn’t. I am bullied most times by my pack members, they hate me so much because they thought I killed my mother, and that’s why they’re lying against me. I swear that I am not like my father. Please, let me go.” He scoffed, “letting you go is the last thing I’ll do! There’s nothing you can do to prove to me that you’re not just as heartless as your father, and before I kill you, I intend on making you pay for all he’s done to this pack. Starting now, I will show just how much wickedness your father taught me himself.” I didn’t know the message he was trying to pass across, not until he ordered his men to bring a box, a safe-like box, into my dungeon room. The guard opened it up before me, and what I saw in there shattered my heart into a million pieces. The blood on the knife that Logan held belonged to my father, and he had alpha Dan’s head placed in that box. He had just beheaded my father, and I was next on his kill list.Author’s POV…It hurt so much seeing what he did to her father. Growing up, despite how badly her father treated her, Alexa never thought she would shed this much tears seeing he was no more. Alexa still loved her dad, despite his ill-treatment towards her, and now, he was gone.She couldn’t control herself from weeping so hard in front of Logan. She didn’t care what he thought. Alexa had just lost someone valuable to her, and she needed to express her grief for the last time she would see him.Then she heard his threatening words.“You can cry from now till tomorrow, Lexie. That will not make me feel any pity for you. In fact, your tears will only make me give you more punishment. Maybe you will even cry harder after then.”Those words sounded so familiar; they reminded her of the kind of life she had back in the blue scorpion pack house when Alexa would do something wrong, or rather, something her father thought wrong. Depending on his mood, he might go as far as nearly beating her t
Author’s POV…The Alpha and his men had already returned to the pack house, and now in the dungeons, it remained the prisoners, both old and new, along with the prison wardens and guards.It was time for morning duties, after which the prisoners would have breakfast. Alexa’s back ached from sleeping on the cold ground. Her clothes and body were covered in black dust, and she looked far from neat. It was torture having to carry out morning duties; Alexa was meant to accompany the female prisoners to the farms to clear up weeds and take care of animals, but instead, the prison guards made her go along with the men to mine rocks from the quarries.She already knew the reason for the level of hate she received from this new place; what confused her was how everyone suddenly knew her to be Danister’s daughter. She didn’t share a cell with anyone; Logan made sure of that, and other than him, she hadn’t communicated with anyone else since she got here.As she passed among the remaining priso
Alexa’s POV… I told myself not to do it; my wolf also told me not to do it, but I just couldn’t help it. Everyone has been terrible to me since the moment I came here, but not none of them beats the way these guys treated me. I know; I should have had more control over my anger. I should have stopped myself from beating the two of them to a pulp, but whenever I tried to be gentle, I heard the words of my trainer, who also happened to be the blue scorpion Beta, Coach Vader, ringing loudly in my ears. “You are a princess. You have to be fierce. You must always stand your ground. You must never let anyone treat you any lower than you should be.” I could fight and defend myself quite alright; I could have chosen to beat up all the Blue Scorpion wolves that had mistreated me. But apart from the intervention from my father, for the sake of not wanting to hurt anyone, I kept that part of myself under lock for a long time. But this time, I don’t know the reason for my lack of control
Author's POV… "How could you say such a thing? Why are you still keeping her alive?" Kara yelled at the top of her voice. Alpha Logan sighed tiredly. He was not in the mood for Kara’s troubles today. No doubt, she would be angry after hearing about his decision to spare Danister's daughter’s life. He just wished he’d earlier prepared himself for Kara’s outburst. "She is the daughter of that bastard who killed and wiped out your family. You should have slaughtered her the moment you laid eyes on her. Is that not what he did to your father?” “Enough, Kara!” Kara’s voice lessened. “I’m sorry if I went too far with my words. It’s just so hard for me to comprehend. What's your reason for keeping her alive?” “Rather than worrying yourself about the decisions I choose to take, why not focus on your own life? If you want to be my Luna, you must try to get the Red Lotus wolves to accept you. I’ve heard a lot of complaints about you recently, Kara, and it’s not very encouraging. You
Author's POV… Alexa guessed that Alpha Logan wouldn't give her a chance to talk with the way he sounded. He was furious. "But.. I am…innocent," she managed to say in a weak voice. "You still have the guts to talk, right?" Kara wanted to pounce on her again, but Logan drew her back. "Stay out of this. I will take care of it." He then turned to Alexa, whose knees remained on the floor. "I hate your pretence and how you're faking your innocence. You deserve to die, I gave you a chance to live, but you just lost that chance." Logan glared at her coldly, and she suddenly began releasing tears she'd been holding for a long time. "I am innocent. I didn't do anything wrong. I was only trying to defend myself. I never meant for anything bad to happen. Please believe me." Alexa begged in tears as she shook in fear. Her sobbing suddenly began ringing in Logan's head, and he shook his head. ‘She won't deceive me this time.’ He promised himself silently. Part of him was starting to have c
Authors POV… Soon, Kara placed her head downwards. She took his hairless cock in her mouth, savouring his taste. Her tongue swirled over him, his pre cum weeping, exploding her taste buds. He lifted her head and pushed her back to the bed, positioning himself between her thighs. Logan plunged into her slowly, making her release a loud gasp full of pleasure. He rocked back and forth, making sure she was not in any pain, before gripping her hips and thrusting further. Harder and faster! Kara felt the wave rise inside her before exploding into a frenzy, gripping his cock tightly with each pulsing of electricity as she came. He fucked her harder and faster. Squealing and moaning, Kara came again. Slowing down, he pulled out and told her in between breaths. “Now it’s your turn. Show me what Kara can do.” “My pleasure.” Pulling her onto him, he looked at her, “lean back,” he said. With his hands on her forearms, she leaned back as she sank onto him. “Holy shit!” She screamed as t
Alexa's POV… I opened my eyes slowly, realising I had just woken up in a bright room. I could hardly recognise where I was as I looked around. ‘Where am I?’ I asked myself. Severe pains travelled throughout my entire body, making me feel an unusual sort of weakness. I tried to get up, but that only seemed to reawaken the pain as the wounds began to sting me badly. I suddenly began to recall what had happened. I'm supposed to be dead by now, right? I couldn't have possibly survived being flogged till the next day. Did Alpha Logan pity me and order his guards to stop lashing me? I got more confused as I asked myself numerous questions. I managed to sit up, noticing the thin bed I was lying on was soaked with my blood. I wondered how I got here; I couldn't have walked into this room by myself. I knew I was forgetting something and tried straining my brain to remember. ‘Think deeply; there's something you're forgetting,’ Kim confirmed and just then, I remembered how I got here.
Alexa's POV… "Do you like him?" I asked her bluntly without thinking. Selina then stopped treating me and faced me with a blank expression. "Do you want me to die young? How can a slave like a beta of a pack? I just admire his personality and nothing else. Please don’t utter such words again. We might get into trouble if anyone hears you say something like that," she warned and got back into dressing my wounds. "I am sorry," I apologised, turning my head back. I could feel her smile even though I couldn't see her face as I lay on my tummy. "Does it still sting?" She asked as she caressed my back. I shook my head. She was right, the sting only lasted for a moment, and now the pain has reduced. "You should rest after this treatment so it can heal faster; you will be in pain for a few days because your wounds are severe." She stated. "Ouch!" I winced. "Sorry." "How did you become a slave?" I started another conversation to distract myself from the pain. "I got saved by Be
"I used to be the well-respected Lady Kara. Everyone feared me! No one beneath me dared to so much as look me in the eye or remain sitting whenever I walked into a room, but now, I've lost everything! My life, my status, my man, all gone! I've become a nobody all because of that bitch who suddenly came and stole everything from me. I hate her so much!!!" It seems the battle she fought so hard for had been lost by Omega Kara, and she is now left to rot and suffer in a cruel world full of people just like her former self. But does the goddess give second chances? Is it possible for the darkest and evilest of hearts to turn a new leaf and become pure and white as snow? With all of her past behaviours, Kara was deemed the devil herself; now it's time for her to pay for her crimes and receive her dose of the same pain and suffering she caused others. But what will happen when the moon goddess decides not just to give her another chance to mend her ways but also an unexpected mate? The m
Alexa's POV…Logan was reluctant, but after pleading, he decided to trust me as much as he did before. After he ordered his men to leave the room, I turned from him to Kara."You can have anything you want, Kara. You want Logan. Fine. I will leave this pack with Alvin and never return. You can have him then, your queenship, your Luna title and everything else I took from you, I'll give it back. Please, just spare the child.""You must think I am a fool, Alexa. You think I don't know what Logan will do to me the minute this child is in safety. Besides, I know he doesn't want me anymore. So, thank you for your offer, but no. I'm not interested. Killing Alvin will be more satisfying because I know it's more realistic than getting married to Logan.""You might not have the Luna position or all you desired any longer, Kara, but that still doesn't mean your life won't be meaningful. I know things didn't go as planned for you
Alexa's POV…The day ended with Alpha Carl apologizing to Logan and I for the intended attack. He also wished us the best in our union before retreating with the Crescent Moon soldiers. Logan had a short meeting with the elders where they planned Vader's execution date and also agreed to free the soldiers who confessed and send them back to the Blue Scorpion pack. There was not enough time to discuss much, so we fixed another meeting, but for the first time I'd been in this pack, the elder's faces weren't filled with scowls as they saw me. Instead, I saw glints of pride and happiness on their faces. They were happy because I averted the war, and it made them change their perceptions of me. The short meeting ended with Elder Andrew saying. "We will have to pause here, it's been a long day, and since we've discussed the basics, we will arrange another meeting to give honour to whom it is due." He passed a warm smile in my direction, and so did the other elders before they got up and le
Alexa’s POV…I looked over at Logan; he was standing right there with Simon, giving me an assuring look that said he trusted me, so he let me handle it. Another person I was glad to see was Kara. She was on the other side of the terrain with Vader and Carl. No doubt, they’d been working together. If only she and Carl knew who they’d been working with. My vision gave Carl the reaction I expected. He was beginning to falter in his resolve to trust Vader fully. I continued with what I had in mind. “I know you’re still pondering what to do, Alpha Carl, but let me ask you this question. How long have you known Vader? I’m guessing it’s only been for a few months. I have known him for the greater part of my life, and I have always known that he is up to no good. The Vader I know never likes to serve under anyone. He always wants all the power for himself, and he had planned to kill Alpha Danister before Logan’s attack.” “Enough!” Vader growled. “There are many things I will tolerate, but
Alexa's POV..."Carl, I implore you to listen to me. Vader has never been one to serve under anyone. He craves power and control for himself and will stop at nothing to achieve it. He orchestrated the plan to kill Danister before Logan's attack, and he's manipulating you into trusting him." I persisted. "I'm getting tired of your accusations, Alexa. Vader has proven his loyalty time and again. I will not allow you to tarnish his reputation with your baseless claims." Alpha Carl said. "I understand that it's difficult to accept, Carl. But the evidence is there if you're willing to look. Vader's desire for power has always been evident. He thrives on manipulation and deceit. If you continue to trust him blindly, he will lead you down a treacherous path." "Enough of this nonsense, Alexa! Your attempts to tarnish my name are pathetic. Alpha Carl, do not be swayed by her lies. She is desperate and will say anything to undermine our unity." Vader interrupts. "Vader, your attempts to sil
Alexa's POV... The tension in the air was palpable as the two werewolf armies stood opposite each other. The moon hung high in the dark sky, casting an eerie glow on the battlefield. The growls and snarls of the werewolves filled the night, echoing through the surrounding forest. On one side, a pack of fierce, muscular werewolves with dark, matted fur and glowing yellow eyes awaited their adversaries. A notorious group known for their cunning strategies and ruthless nature. Led by their alpha, a massive and imposing figure with a silver-streaked mane, they were determined to claim victory. Before they could charge at each other, I appeared at the forefront, ready to end this madness and try to stop this battle without losing so many lives. I had a plan, I didn't know if it could work, but I had to at least try. I directed my attention towards the orchestrator. I already knew what to say. "Carl, listen carefully. Vader, your right-hand man, is a treacherous snake. He orchestrated
Alexa's POV...But the peace and quiet were not to last. Now officially married, although in secrecy, I could feel some form of bond with Logan. Yes, we had always been mates, but it seemed like the moment I said I do, I could feel a stronger, almost permanent bond with him. It seemed like our promise to each other over a year ago had been officially sealed; I was now forever his life mate.Each night, in each other's arms, felt different; the feel of his arms around me felt different nowadays. I could tell when he was angry, moody, sad, frightened. It was as if I could clearly read his emotions.The past few days were just like the last week, with the men and trained guards working extra hard in training and mastering new weapons and skills. Simon had once come to me and told me of his plan to convince Logan to go out and try to find out who had attacked them and why.I knew it was a waste of time; I knew Vader well enough to know that he cou
Alexa's POV...For the first twenty seconds, it seemed like all I could do was simply stare at Logan. Not only was I very shocked, but I could feel the uncertainty creeping in. Was this a joke? Was Selena somewhere in the background waiting to jump out and mock me? Was this some prank to ease off the tension created by the attack for the past few days?Logan had once or twice made too good a joke out of me. He might not have been the funniest of persons, but he sure could pull off a good prank.I shook my head involuntarily, wishing he could tell me it was all a prank. But no, there he was, still on his knee, a diamond ring still pointing towards me.Logan must have misinterpreted my silence because the next thing he did was get on his feet, tuck the ring into his back pocket, and then try to hold me. "I know these past few days have been horrible for you, and this is quite possibly the worst time on earth to bring up a topic like this; you know wha
Logan's POV...I honestly could not tell why I picked the garden. Maybe it was the many lovely memories I had of the spot with Kara when I still loved her and saw a future with her.On the other hand, Alexa seemed like a blessing in the embodiment of an angel. She was my fated mate, she bore me a child, and she still managed to make my heart skip each time I heard her time talk less of seeing her.I did not need extra time to know I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. The signs were pretty clear; she was undoubtedly the one for me.Vader was the name of the man she said she knew. I had sent out some men to dig up what else they could dig up about the man. Still, it seemed that after the blue scorpions were captured, he was nowhere to be seen until that attack on the red lotus. I had to give it to him; he was pretty good at hiding. He hid so well that he left no trail, and even after the attack, it was as if he simply evaporated or disappea
