“Thank you very much, Eunice. I shall take it up from here,” I heard Cyrus' voice as clear as day.

I had been disappointed when I had woken up to see Eunice but now that he was here I was hoping he was not.

I had not figured out what I wanted to do with him yet. I was not certain if in this lifetime I wanted to continue my relationship with him. To be honest there were still so many gaps in my memory about my previous life and in this lifetime, Cyrus had not been too kind to me as at first.

Besides, I could not get over the fact that our relationship had started out on uneven terms in this lifetime. Somehow, I felt that things were different now.

“Eunice was just telling me the most extraordinary things; I would be sorry to see her go,” I said, hoping to delay the inevitable.

“So you now have an ear for gossip? That is new,” he said.

Eunice bowed deeply to Cyrus and left at once.

“There are so many new things about me. I am not the same woman you knew; Agatha is dead and will re

  • The Alpha's Slave    A Wedding Off Swords

    The wedding rituals were over and I was happy to see the corpse taken out of the ceremony. However, judging from the reaction of the people present I could tell that the wedding will be forever ingrained in their minds. Well, it was time now to dance with my bride. We had gone through the wedding rituals but we had yet to speak since I had missed her. Seeing her today however, reminded me of why she had remained on my mind. She was beautiful, _ethereal_. I had not missed the jealous eyes that had bored holes into me as the priest finalised our union. “You are beautiful,” I whispered into her ear. “I know,” came her conceited response. “It was a compliment, you should have said thank you,” I responded. “You stated a fact, I have been told those words so many times,” I did not doubt her; it was hard to see her and not register that she was a beautiful woman. “I see; what about ethereal?” “I do not need your compliment, you do not love me,” she said. “You refuse me your heart.

  • The Alpha's Slave   Father and Daughter

    Theophilus' POVSomething was wrong here. Something had been wrong all this while and I berated myself for not having noticed all this while. Lord Marshall did not care about his daughter. It all started to make sense now. That was why he had not cared if she had a corpse at her wedding or if she had to marry someone she cared nothing for. But why had he done so? My mind went back to the shapeshifters. Was someone impersonating Lord Marshall? And if so why? And more importantly, why was Moana hiding it? All I knew was that I was not allowing Moana to return to such a place. “Lord Marshall, as the Alpha I will have to intervene. Lady Moana is to leave your home and move into her husband's house,” Cyrus said. I could tell Lord Marshall was not pleased with this development but I could not care less. Audrey's POV “What was that about?” I asked in fury as I confronted King Ares. I had been shocked to find out that the wedding hall had been attacked. It had not been part of the

  • The Alpha's Slave   The Return Of The Luna

    Theo's POVThe wedding had come and gone and the couple were now living in wedded bliss of disaster. The pack was also out of mourning for Lord Salmon. Life continued in the palace as usual. “Your Majesty, that idea is preposterous! There are noble Lords that look after the affairs of their coffers not to mention the fact that we assign governors to every region,” a man named Donovan spoke up.Cyrus had finally presented the plan to make the locals choose their own representatives and the noble ministers were not open to the idea. I had known they would not like it anyway. What Cyrus aimed to do was going to reduce the power they had at the grassroots level. “In my opinion, it is a good idea; the common people do not have to wear it with every little request they have. Whoever they have chosen will bear the burden of that and will only come to us when big issues arrive,” returned Cyrus. I could see that he was in a good mood today. On a normal day, anyone who labeled his idea as p

  • The Alpha's Slave    A Weird Couple

    Theophilus' POVI was getting frustrated with my new bride. I had prevailed the other day and she had come home with me but as we reached my home she had made it very clear that we would be staying in different rooms. “Why? Are you embarrassed that you might snore?” I had been teasing her but her face had remained stoic. “We just got married, Moana. We may not like each other but I know there is chemistry between us,” I remembered that even though she had bitten me the other day she had responded well to my kiss initially. “I will only be intimate with you when it is necessary to birth your heir,” came her response. “And if I want to start making my heir now?”“I am not ready. I shall be ready in a year,” came her stubborn response. I had given in to her because I did not have the strength to argue with her. She had her own room and I had mine but what I did not expect from her was she avoiding me. She avoided me like I was a plague. I could not understand her and to be frank

    “He deserves to be locked up for what he did to you,” I could see his veins pulsating due to his rage but I had to find a way to calm him down. “You will only complicate matters by confronting him about this,” I said to him but I doubted he was listening to what I was saying. “Complicate what? You are not to return to your father anymore,” he said. “That is why there is no need to complicate this further. Whatever he did to me does not matter anymore.” He wanted to say something more but I stopped him with a kiss. “My father…” I started to say but my words were lost in his mouth as he captured my lips in a deep kiss. He stopped kissing and stared into my eyes to ask, “Are you sure?” I answered him with a kiss and standing in the middle of the long corridor, we made love. Theophilus' POV I had to be the happiest man in Ghysem.I had married the most beautiful woman in the world and now that there were no secrets among us I was enjoying marital bliss. As I walked into Lord Rob

  • The Alpha's Slave    Upside Down Ghysem

    Cyrus' POV Larog was scared. I could smell his fear and I had to say that it had a nice scent to it. I had enough reason to end Larog's life. In fact, I should have done so long ago but I did not want to sever the link between myself and those who wanted my throne. I had left him alive this long for that purpose. He did not know it yet but he was going to reveal to me all those that wanted to betray me. “There is something that I want from you however and that is to look for Lady Audrey,” I watched him closely and I was pleased at the reaction I could draw from him. His face had lost whatever colour that was left on it and I saw him trying in vain to still his trembling fingers. “Your Majesty?” was all he could voice. “Well, my Luna tells me that she was kidnapped by Lady Audrey and I have reason to believe that Lady Audrey is guilty of treason.” “Treason?” his face held a sour expression. “Oh, yes. Her sister will testify against her at court tomorrow but I want you to star

  • The Alpha's Slave   Murder Or Suicide?

    Imagine the tone with which he spoke to me. If I had nothing to hide I should not be worried.Back in the day, there had been no council and when one had been put in place, it had been managed by respectable noblemen and not men like Altid who were of common birth. “You will regret this; I assure you that you will,” I said bitterly and left the building. Before the audit began, there was someone I needed to tell. Altid's POV I did not need to do much digging. There were lots of discrepancies in the project Lord Robert had been assigned. The next day I went to his house to question him. I had brought just Timothy along with me. I explained to the butler my urgent errand and I was allowed into the house. The butler has led me to his personal library where he assured me Lord Robert would be. I knocked on the door and on getting no response, I opened it. Lord Robert was there alright but he could not have answered me because he was dead. “He killed himself?” Timothy's face was

  • The Alpha's Slave   Lady Vs. Lady

    “I was disappointed to see you flirt so shamelessly with my mate,” I said to her but more so I was disappointed in Cyrus for giving into such a flimsy temptation. If he had called her bluff she would not have had the guts to seduce him. “I have nothing to say to that. You were dead and I did not think you would ever be reincarnated. Reincarnation has only happened once and that was many years back,” came her response. “Perhaps you are right but I find that I cannot put it behind me,” I said. “You can do as you wish,” she said. “And there is your…” “Why exactly did you call me here? Give me ten reasons you hate me now?” she retorted. I did not remark on her rudeness. It could be that she still viewed me as a slave. “Given your situation, I want to extend an olive branch to you,” I said. I had no intention of continuing our friendship this time but I still cared about her. I could also imagine that given her sister's betrayal, she must be going through a lot. “I do not need yo

  • The Alpha's Slave   The Arrival

    The day of the wedding dawned with a golden glow, as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the trees, casting a warm, ethereal light over the palace grounds. The garden, which had been the site of Cyrus’s heartfelt proposal, had been transformed into an even more magical place. An archway covered in climbing roses marked the entrance, their petals a delicate blend of white and blush pink.Rows of chairs draped in ivory fabric lined the pathway leading to the grand gazebo, which was adorned with cascading flowers and soft, billowing curtains.

    Theophilus stood at the edge of the clearing, observing the scene before him. The war had left this part of the kingdom in shambles, but now, with peace restored, the arduous process of rebuilding had begun. The air was thick with the scent of earth and freshly turned soil as workers unearthed the entrances to the underground shelters where the people had sought refuge during the conflict.He walked through the village, greeting the townsfolk who were emerging from their subterranean hideouts. The once desolate and war-torn area was now a hive of activity. Men and women toiled side by side, lifting beams, hammering nails, and repairing the damage. Children, their faces smeared with dirt, played amidst the construction, their laughter a hopeful sign of better days to come.Theophilus paused at the entrance of one of the larger shelters, admiring the ingenuity and resilience of his people. The structure, hidden beneath a thick layer of earth and foliage, had provided safety and refuge d

    Lady Asher's screams echoed through the dimly lit chambers of the southern palace, the sound waves reverberating off the stone walls. Sweat drenched her body, soaking through the linen sheets as she clung to the bedposts, her strength waning with each contraction. The midwives hovered around her, whispering words of encouragement, their hands steady and practiced as they guided her through the agony.The air was thick with the scent of herbs—rosemary and lavender—mingling with the coppery tang of blood, a primal smell that signaled new life. King Ares paced outside the room, his heart pounding with a mixture of fear and anticipation. His footsteps echoed down the corridor as he awaited the arrival of his heir. The southern palace was bathed in moonlight, casting an ethereal glow over the proceedings.The night air vibrated with tension as the kingdom held its breath, awaiting the cry of the newborn prince. And then it came—the final cry, piercing the night. King Ares rushed inside, hi

Her heart ached with the weight of her secret, the burden of hiding her true feelings from the world.But on a day before she was to return to Ghysem, she realized something was amiss. Her monthly blood flow had not come, and a subtle queasiness had taken up residence in her stomach. Her heart pounded as she sought out Ares, her feet carrying her to his chambers with a sense of urgency.She found him poring over maps and documents, his brow furrowed in concentration. The scent of parchment and ink filled the air, transporting her to a world of ancient tales and forgotten lore. He looked up as she entered, a smile lighting up his face, illuminating the room."Ashlynn," he said, standing and crossing the room to embrace her. His arms wrapped around her, warm and reassuring, holding her close as if he'd never let her go."What brings yo

    Lad—Ashlynn,” she said in a shaky voice, her words little more than a breath. She originally had meant to say her title, Lady Asher, but there was something about the warmth Ares was giving her that made her change her mind.Ares' eyes were shown in delight. "A beautiful name for a beautiful young lady!" he exclaimed, awed by her queenly form. Her midnight locks flowed down her back like liquid ebony, highlights of chestnut shimmering in the light. Her emerald eyes were so deep, it felt as though they could look into his very spirit.Their talk had flowed along easily, as water flows along a gently inclined plain. They had said nothing for hours.Not only did Ashlynn possess ravishing beauty, but her intellect, her passion for art, and the gentle strength she exuded intrigued Ares. Her laughter was music to his ears.Ashlynn was intrigued by the layers of Ares’ personality- his intelligence, his underlying kindness beneath his mantel of dominance, and the faint glimmer of vulnerabilit

    A sad smile graced Lady Asher's face. She took in a deep breath and then wiped a nonexistent tear as her mind floated back to her younger days.The tension of the war that had separated the North from the South had eased up a bit. It was not forbidden for citizens of Ghysem to venture into the South or vice versa. It was during the winter, and Lady Asher Ashlynn's husband had been sent on an errand by the king.Life was beginning to bore her, and she did not want to feel like a burden to her friend, who was queen. Usually, she would spend her whole day with her best friend, but her friend had duties to attend to, and she often felt like she was in the way.Ashlynn had seen the whole of the North, and her curiosity often made her wonder about the depths of the South.

    Soldiers had been dispersed all over Ghysem and the south which has now become a part of Ghysem. They had sent word to other neighboring packs in the West and East so there was no place for Lady Asher to hide. Each day was spent in anguish and constant nightmares for Cyrus. He kept seeing himself hanging from the ceiling with a black veil on his wrist. Other times, he would see Agnes; her face contorted in pain as she swung from the ceiling, a black veil tied around her wrist and anytime he cut the rope, trying to save her it would be too late.He would end up bringing down a lifeless body.Then he would wake up, covered in sweat and panting heavily like he was fighting a physical war. Tonight was one of those nights Cyrus was drenched in his sweat. His breathing was ragged and then his hands shaky with fear. He felt around the bedside table for a lantern and a match, then struck it to flame the lantern. He sat up properly this time and looked towards where Agnes lay, to be sure she
