Chapter 99Drake's povSitting on my throne and sipping my coffee, I looked out through the window and then stood up to go view the surroundings. Tired of the day's stress, I then decided to go look around my garden. I thought the sight of my favorite flowers could help soothe the air around me."Alpha! I think our luna wants to see you." beta Joe said to me and I turned to look at him. "I saw her a few minutes ago," I replied and then glared at him.What the hell did he mean? I can't have my privacy? I thought. For some reasons unknown to me, I started having some kind of feeling that spelled danger.Could danger be lurking around? I thought. My luna! I thought and then ran out to go see her.When I got into her room, I realized she wasn't even there."Where is your luna?" I asked one of the omegas."She is in the dinning.""Are you sure why aren't you with her?""She asked to be alone Alpha""Is that so? Okay."I then turned to leave and suddenly got mind-linked by my beta who I ha
Chapter 100Leila's povInside of me felt like it was burning. It felt so severe that I didn't know how I could calm it down. It felt as though something was leaving me and the feeling went on for hours before it finally settled.Sitting on the floor of the cage, I looked around, wondering if anyone was around. For a while, I had not seen anyone around except for Amelia who only walked by without stopping to degrade me like she always did whenever she was around. Feeling dejected, I wondered what was happening around the forest and even back at the black pool pack. I started feeling like no one was out to look for me. It felt as though I was nothing but a piece of rejected stone. There was no hope of ever having to leave here. I had no idea what was happening in my father's mind or if he ever planned to come check me out. I was feeling unbelievably drained that I then placed my head on the floor, wishing it'd just open and consume me."Father, am I that bad? I know you love Amelia and
Chapter 101Leila's povI couldn't believe someone could be this low. I saw no reason why I had to go through this in the hands of anyone.Staring at him deeply in his eyes, I tried to push him to help me."you are going nowhere," he replied."you are a shame to humanity if you can't help me and rather watch me suffer. Come on, I need to leave here.""and go where?" another voice chipped in.I froze.Then I looked up only to find my enemy in the form of a sister. Looking at how beautifully dressed she was, I couldn't help but wonder why such a beauty would choose to hurt her fellow girl and sister."Amelia please let's settle all grudges. I'm getting weaker by the day. It's not healthy here. Please consider my life. Do you remember us when we were younger? How we do play in the park and then in the fields? Do you remember how I helped you win prizes? Guess what, I will do it over and over again but please look at me like the sister I am.""We don't share the same blood bitch.""But we
Chapter 102Leila's pov"Your father. That's Carlson right or did I miss his name?" she asked me and I looked up."Guess what? So once upon a time?" in the Black Pool Pack, there lived this alpha, the best, the mightiest, the greatest, the smartest, and his name his Antonio. He was once the Alpha of the black pool pack but then, unfortunately, a father of the low life currently ruling came forward and took it upon himself to run his life thereby taking his power and sending him back to the street but guess what, he died sooner and gave the throne to his pathetic son who was then ruling shamelessly. But guess who the winner is right now? The Rogue! He has risen. He has risen to take back everything that was stolen from him. I mean, he wouldn't lose in his maternal home and lose at his father's rightful throne right?" she said to me and I couldn't believe my ears.I wanted to be sure. So much information in all she had just said. What did she mean? Did Antonio once rule the black pool p
Chapter 103Leila's povI thought to myself and chose to be quiet till I was done. I was going to take anything as long as it had nothing to do with what I was thinking already. When I pressed the play button again, it continued, and then watched how my father was tormented till his last breath.At that point, I felt my world shattered right in my very own eyes. A lot of people said I'm useless and I am worthless and I had done my best to ensure it never got into my head but right now, I'm starting to think they are right in some way.When I thought the video was over, I then watched my father being thrown on top of too many woods and was being set on fire in the midst of what seemed like a disaster in the pack.I froze!This was it!"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!" I screamed in pain as I watched my father get burnt with my very own eyes. "Awwwwnnnnn! Someone is tortured!" I heard Amelia say with a fake cry leaving her lips."Nooooo Dad you can't leave no dad! I screamed in the cage and fell o
Chapter 104Leila's povA few minutes later, I started feeling incredibly sick that I thought I was going to die from it. Holding myself right, I did all I could to adjust my belly that was kissing the cold hard floor. Tears streamed out of my eyes the more I tried to hold it in. Remembering my father, I couldn't believe this was how I got to lose him.Thinking back on the first day I met him, I felt my breath almost stopping.*******Flashback..."Who is he, Mom?" I had innocently asked my very beautiful and delicate mother who stood behind me, rubbing my head while she looked up at my father."Baby... He is... Yourrr father. Hey honey. Really, he is your father." she said, grabbing my cheeks tenderly."Really? This man is my father?" I replied to her and then looked up at the strange face staring at me."Why doesn't he look happy to see me," I complained to my mother."Honey that's not true. I think he is just too emotional right now to think straight. He is more than happy to see y
Chapter 105Leila's povComing back to my senses, I couldn't help but stay still without a sound. Anyone outside of the cage could assume that I'm dead. I closed my eyes, trying my best to assume that I was dead and gone but then my brain went back to memory lane. Staring up at an unknown try, I watched my father come and lift me up. "There are fruits up there. Plug one for yourself," he said from nowhere. Excited, I quickly plugged it and chewed on it. "Nice? Now plug another for later," he said and I plugged again, another falling right after that. He pulled me down and then nodded at me. Taking my fruit in my hand, I quickly moved away because the bonds between me and my father were yet to be formed and I could barely strike a conversation with him."What are you doing?" he said as he approached me minutes later." "I'm trying to save for later," I said as I washed the fruits and tried saving them in a bag."It's a good thing but it will spoil cause these are ripened fruits. So
Chapter 106Leila's pov"Good!" he replied me and then left me there. A few minutes later, I then went into my room and lay on my bed."I love you, mom. I miss you so much." I whispered.The next day, I woke up feeling incredibly tired but I didn't want to remain there on the bed doing nothing. Coming down, I picked up the broom at the back of the door and started sweeping it. When I was done, I entered the bathroom and cleaned up for the day, then went into the sitting room to do some chores. That was the first day I officially met with Amelia. "Hi! I am Leila!" I had said to her, all dressed up in a pink gown that my mother had specifically given to me. She looked at me from head to toe and after a long time of staying silent, she stood up and walked past me.I turned back to look at her only to see her going up the stairs looking all aggravated."Did I offend her?" I asked myself as I then turned and started dusting the chairs. I needed to keep the place very clean even though I h
Chapter 203Leila's povI couldn't understand why though but I knew that whatever it was, it would work in my favour."step forward Leila," the priestess said to me and I moved forward with the help of Damian. She made me kneel before the altar and then she started performing rituals over me. A few minutes later, I saw smoke coming out from the altar all at once and we had to wait for it to land. I watched it hover around the air and finally settled on me, filling me up.I shivered within and didn't know when I went unconscious.I soon opened my eyes only to see Alpha Xander staring at me. I then sat up and saw that I was being laid."you are awake," Damian said happily and quickly hugged me. Alpha Xander looked very excited. He was still seated on the wheels provided for him.I stood up and looked around my body. I felt stronger. It was weird at first as I jumped around. The energy in me was top-notch. It was only me, Damian, and Alpha Xander that were there. I think the rest chose
Chapter 202Antonio's povI didn't know if that was a good idea or a bad one cause after seven hours of leaving the pack some guards who claimed they were from the chiefs returned with my warriors' clothes stained in blood and reported to me that they had met them all dead.I felt devastated. I wasn't willing to sacrifice my daughter in the midst of all these and it felt as though I was losing it already. I didn't know what I was thinking anymore. "what's wrong? Have they been able to find her?" Sonia asked me from behind and I felt my anger rising."What did the chiefs' guards mean by they met the warriors I sent out dead? That's impossible. I will kill them all." I growled in anger and ordered my guards to go gather all the chiefs I had trusted along with the guards. These chiefs helped me get on the throne. There were other chiefs who didn't succumb to me but I had no idea where they were. They left the pack long before I came so I was going to kill the rest for failing in their j
Chapter 201Amelia's povI couldn't understand the reason Damian chose to get away from me like this so I swore to get to the root of the matter. I won't sit and watch my love life go down the drain. I loved Damian and never thought of playing with him.I made my way out of the forest and ran back to the black pool pack, keeping in mind that my father was ruling there at the moment. When I got to the gate of the palace, I paused there for a while before going in.The guards were very surprised to see me but I didn't care as it wasn't the point.It was a bright new day but I didn't think so as I walked in, looking very pissed at my existence. "where are my parents." I asked the gate at the main door of the building.He then took me in and I walked into the dining to see my parents eating breakfast when my world was shattering. "someone explain what is happening here."They looked up and were very surprised to see me. "what are you doing here Amelia?" my father asked."Oh, my child. I
Chapter 200Sonia's povI couldn't believe my eyes. Gosh! I understand that Damian is missing and he left with Leila but what has it changed? He is still the alpha. I would rather he prove to the people that he can protect them and solidify his position than this he was doing. He just killed a member and now the whole pack is in mourning. I didn't think he was right in this. We should only go after anyone who threatens our position and not innocent pack members. I turned and walked into the building after him, chasing after him."make me understand the reason for that Antonio. Do you realize you just killed someone?" I queried.He turned and faced me in the bedroom looking really scared. "Sonia I expect you to follow my lead and not ask me stupid questions. Do you realize what will happen if those two get their hands on any power and come after us again?"What the hell was he even talking about? "this is not even the point. You murdered someone you were obligated to protect. This nev
Chapter 199Antonio's pov"Search them! Fish them out right now!!!" I commanded my men as I watched them leave. Arrrrgghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!I could not control my anger anymore as my warriors matched out of the black pool pack to find Damian and Leila. I was then wondering how long they had gone missing for as I knelt on the floor at the from of the palace building. On remembering Dennis, I decided to check him out but no matter how much I searched around, he was nowhere to be found. "Where is Dennis? He was here a few minutes ago." I asked one of the guards I had right there."he left long ago. Not too long from when he came." the guard responded and I got very pissed. How could he leave again without saying goodbye?My mind was messed up and I really needed someone to talk to."you are walking around like you have mental issues," Sonia said to me, fueling my anger. "why are you doing this to me? Why are you doing this to me answer me?"I screamed at her.My anger was over the roof.
Chapter 198Leila's povAntonio was a very desperate and greedy man. We had to listen to every single thing Damian had to say and though I was still angry at him deep within me, I still think it wasn't entirely his fault.Why hurt your fellow werewolf for revenge? It just doesn't add up to me at all.Damian was still with me and the alpha. He unexpectedly went down on his knees to beg me for forgiveness. "I want you to forgive me, Lily. I know you may never want to get back into a romantic relationship with me and I'm not expecting you to or feeling entitled to it. I just want you to forgive me. I was wrong. I admit it. I should have alerted you and if I knew my sister would have died, I would have risked my life so I wouldn't have to live to witness her absence. Please don't take me back but forgive me for all the pain and disappointment I have cost you."I didn't expect this apology but either way, it brought tears to my eyes and I had to cry it out. Yes I loved him and I wasn't jok
Chapter 197Leila's pov"You look ready." the rogue appeared in our presence well covered.We looked at each other and then at the rogue. Two others then joined them, and all of a sudden they were three.I shifted back a little. I was disappointed because I never thought of fighting anyone. How was I supposed to fight more than one rogue? Seems like I would have to experience what it was like being beaten by a random rogue. I felt tired all of a sudden and then sat down on the floor. "Leila you can't do that." Damian's voice came through."I can't fight them either. I mean it's not like I am that strong. You should give up too. You aren't Alpha Xander." I told him and he realized what u was saying at that instant but still didn't want to let his guard down.The rogues looked mysterious. "Did you just say Alpha Xander?" one of them asked."yes, that's my alpha," Damian replied to them and they stood still, taking their hands like people giving up in a fight. Seeing their reactions. I
Chapter 196Leila's povDid they get attacked? I couldn't believe my ears. I had lived in the cage with the mindset that I was nothing. I had no idea that the pack was in chaos due to my disappearance. I then started feeling this special gratitude for my Alpha."But Leila... Will you ever forgive me?" I heard Damian ask. I was already making peace with myself."I think you should give me time." I said to him and he didn't argue that as we walked, trying to find our way out of the forest. "if we find ourselves out of the forest? Do you think it will be wise to get into the black pool pack though?""that will be a terrible decision to make. I'm sure you want to be spared. We just have to find a good place to be able to stick to and lay our heads. I don't know if his people have recovered from the spell I cast on them though but I know we have gone far already and are safe from that angle. The only thing to be careful about right now is ensuring we never get to see Antonio or his wife ri
Chapter 195Damian's povI didn't need anyone to tell me. I knew I had not just lost my sister. I had lost Leila too. "Leila I know that I do not deserve to be around you right now but one thing is for sure. I am really sorry and I would do anything to prove it. I know you would never want to be with me again, at least not after everything you saw right there. I want to have you. Please give me a second chance to prove myself to you over and over again." I said to her and she was in pain. She put down her head, hoping to cover her face while she cried but I wasn't willing to let her happen and instead placed her head on my lap."Damian I have no choice but to forgive you. It's okay but we can no longer be partners or mates. I cherished all the time spent together but thank you. I will officially pause it here." I heard her after a while. I couldn't believe she said that to me as I was beyond shocked. Leila forgave me? I couldn't believe my eyes and ears."Leila you really forgave me
