The Alpha's Slave A Monster
My adrenaline is rushing as I take Lady Asher's words in. "Have you forgotten your past? But not as a slave, but as an outcast?" The coldness of her talking begins to fade into the world where I was Agatha.I was first submerged in familiar odors - the smell of old wood and the subtle smell of herbs from my father's house. I was busy bowing down to the floor doing my best to clean it, work as hard as I could just to get all the tasks assigned to me. My brothers and sisters giggled at me and teased me. They instructed me to clean the smears of food and muddy water on the parts that I just washed. Each thing they did to ruin the job I had just done made me to get angry but I refused to show it in my face. I wouldn't let them see that they were getting to me. "Honestly, you should have just been a slave," one of my stepsisters grinned. "I hope you're born as one in your next one. Cleaning suits you.""You missed a spot, Agatha," my other stepsister smirked and then dumped a bucket of so

Lady Asher stared at me directly with a malignant glare in her eyes. Her lips curled into a sly, calculating smile, sharp and unnerving. That smile was designed to hurt, to make me feel small and powerless. It hinted at secrets and small victories she had won against me.Her eyes sparkled with a nasty glee, dark and unfathomable. There was a cruel light in them as if she enjoyed seeing me get riled up by her.The lines around her mouth deepened signs of years spent scheming and deceiving. Her pale, smooth skin seemed to glow with an eerie light, but it was the cruel curve of her lips that stood out.She locked eyes with me, her gaze intense and piercing. For a moment, I felt exposed, as if she could see right through me, into the darkest parts of my soul.She knew her words had hit me hard. That knowledge hung between us, heavy and undeniable. There was no more pretending; the conflict between us was out in the open now. “Do you remember why your own father banished you from your home

Lady Asher did not look directly at me when she spoke, but her icy stare was pointed at me as she continued. Her gaze was like the ice daggers forcing their way through the thick darkness of the chamber. ”Agnes, you do not deserve a response from me.”Turning my head slightly, a smile slowly spread across the corners of my mouth. The room was charged with electric tension and one could almost see and feel the threats that hung over them. "Somebody said that sin finds you out, yes, Karma is coming for all, Lady Asher. Even though it may come late, karma always comes."At that moment the door opened, and Altid stepped into the room. He bowed slightly to Lady Asher and she merely glanced at him before turning back to stare at me. “I require to meet Agnes in a private,” he told her politely. There seemed to be tension between them as well. That was the last time Lady Asher looked at me before she dramatically stormed out of the room. It was stiff like herself when she moved and her moves

"I have assigned soldiers to roam the city for any sign of shapeshifters. They do not know that the shapeshifters will petrify but once they see it happening, they will know what to look for," Altid told Agnes. "That is a smart move," Agnes commented. "Because whoever knows may choose to sabotage our plans."It was not long after she said this that a soldier ran into the room, his face looked pale and fear-stricken. "I was told I would find you here Your Highness," he said in short gasps. "Lord Altid," he gave a slight bow."Some of our soldiers," he said still gasping. "I think they might need medical attention," he said. "They are suddenly turning green as their skin is drying up. They are in severe pain.""Because they took up an appearance that wasn't theirs to deceive Ghysem," Agnes smiled. "Your Highness?""Need not worry yourself," she said, still smiling. "They are simply shapeshifters from the south who have infiltrated our pack. That is why they have petrified."He had an

The room in the house was off the main living area, which made it very small and dark and the only source of light was the flickering candle flame that cast long bony shadows against the walls. The smell of the dust and the acrid note of wax prevailed in the air. Lady Asher looked increasingly regal as she sat in the ornate hand-crafted armchair. Her keen eyes followed Castilla as she stepped into the room. Her eyes were hard as ice; her stare was sharper than a dagger, and it stabbed right through Castilla’s spirit.Castilla danced with elegance and some nervousness; one could tell she was hesitant. Moving her gaze around the room, she looked for comfort but there was none. The walls had crimson color and paintings of ancient wolves. It was difficult to distinguish whether it was disdain, or nervousness, or both for Castilla. Once more her hands were shaking, as she hid them behind her. Lady Asher’s voice was no louder than a whisper as if the fate of the entire world rested on her

Lord Xeik, suddenly awoke with a sudden leap of his heart which pounded against this chest like the forge of a blacksmith. Even at the break of dawn, the illumination of light was poor and the outlines of the tent seemed to creep on him like skeletal hands reaching for him. He had had a nightmare where he had lost his life and not in the most pleasant way. He sat up abruptly and looked around him then suddenly saw it—a black veil spread out like a funeral pall, lying beside him.His mind traveled back to the day before he had come to Ghysem, the recollection of the same veil when he woke up. Castilla has not been beside him, instead, there has been a similar black veil. Then he had not thought much of it but the sight of this one had horrified him, the feeling it elicited left him with utter dread; it was a chilling reminder in his ear. Was someone attempting to send him a message? Why had he not been killed? If King Ares had died because of the black veil, did that mean that he was g

Cyrus POV"Your majesty!" A soldier called out walking into the general tent for decision making. He had a look of urgency on his face. "The South is planning to create a diversion elsewhere. To draw our forces away from here.""Ah, is that so?" I asked, a small wicked grin forming on my face. "That sounds wonderful. The soldiers in the underground pack at the border, they should be deployed to wherever the diversion is.""I shall see to that," one of the generals said with a bow. Drusus gave him a nod of approval. "Your majesty? May I speak with you in private?""Of course," I replied. The generals in the room got the message and excused us. "Is there something extremely chaotic going on?" I asked."On a lighter note," Drussus began. "Agnes has done something quite phenomenal.""Really?" My ears perked up at that. I love hearing about anything that had to do with Agnes."Yes. Reports came in from Altid that we had shapeshifters amongst us. Soldiers in the palace as well as here. She

The Alpha's Slave A Secret Affair
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.

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.

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.
