The Alpha's Slave A Wild Hunt
After the noble ministers had dispersed, Cyrus attempted to escape me but I intercepted him before he could leave the throne room. “I searched the palace for you,” my tone was accusatory. “The palace is a big place, even I don't know it all,” his response was vague. Wherever he had been he was reluctant to reveal his whereabouts. “Agreed, but you were not in the palace,” I returned. “Well, it is chaotic here, I needed a break from all the drama. I thought about hunting; you know we should hunt more often. It helps reduce stress and it is more in tune with our innate nature,” he said. I knew his disappearance had nothing to do with hunting not just because he had no kill to show for it but because he was avoiding my gaze. “You did not go out to hunt,” I called his bluff and he had a defeated look on his face. “You cannot just let go, can you?” quipped Cyrus. I could detect a hint of frustration in his voice. “It is my job to wear you down; what have you been up to?” I asked. “I
The Alpha's Slave A Good Heart
“Very well then. I think it is important we check on Lady Asher's progress. It is only natural considering the ministers have made mention of her,” Theo said and honestly, it had been on my mind for a while. “And when you say we you mean I.” “Of course, my face might make her relapse,” Theo pointed out and I laughed. I did not understand why Lady Asher had not softened to Theo after all this while. An hour later I was at Lady Asher's bedside. She looked so peaceful sleeping. Seeing her like this it was hard to imagine that she was capable of so much drama. If only the change of heart could actually give her a change of heart I would feel extremely lucky. I wanted her to wake up and live many more years but with Agatha's reincarnation in my life, I did not want to have to deal with her refusal to accept the woman I loved. I saw her eyelids flutter and her mind which I had placed in mine gripped me harder. “Lady Asher?” I quipped. “I had thought you had forgotten me,” her voice wa
The Alpha's Slave Moved To Tears
Eunice’s POV Nothing had been done about Agnes' kidnap. It made me wonder if the Alpha had done that himself but I knew that if I wanted to keep my head on my neck I had to keep my mouth shut. I cared deeply for Agnes. We had not spent a long time knowing each other but she had become a dependable friend and I felt like I had sent her to an early grave by advising her to become the Alpha's woman. But life had gone on as usual and today was just another day but something was different about today. The other servants had seemed excited earlier about something… I did not really understand what the frenzy was about especially considering the fact that the pack was in mourning. However, what annoyed me was the fact that they had gotten assigned to whatever task that had caused their excitement and they had left me with all the dirty work. “So who's going to clear the dishes, huh?” I muttered, mimicking the head servant. “Eunice, she doesn't care much about these things,” I said in Ca
The Alpha's Slave A Painful Kiss
“I will be honored,” responded Curtis. That done there was someone with whom I had unfinished business. It was Moana. I saw her in the hall where our wedding was to take place. The moment my presence was noticed, the hall became quiet and everyone stopped to look at me. I ignored their stares and made for Moana. “Do you have a moment?” I asked her. A smug smile settled on her lips and I could guess at once that she was contemplating refusing me in front of her friends. “I am very busy but I believe I can spare you a fraction of my time,” from her tone it would be hard for anyone who was not aware that we were to be married and that in a couple of days, we were to be husband and wife. She followed me and when we were out of sight and hearing from everyone she said, “I am very busy planning our wedding.”“I understand that you'd rather do anything else besides talking to me,” I responded. “I need to get back to…” “Is this what you want?” I asked and she furrowed her eyes. “Wha
The Alpha's Slave A Betrayal Of Trust
A tear trickled down my cheek as I admitted it. Never would I have thought that a situation would ever arise that I would have to betray my sister but she had done it first by trying to kill me. “Will you testify at court against her?” asked Cyrus. I mulled this question over for a while. Having mentioned her name to Cyrus already I had little choice on the matter. “I will.” “You have chosen rightly,” said Cyrus and with that he left. Only Theo remained and I wondered if there was anything more that he wanted from me. “What are your plans after here?” he asked me. “I do not know. Without my father's support I find that I can achieve very little,” I returned. Strangely enough, I felt a lot better. I was no longer in as much pain as I had been when they had entered. The question Theo had asked me had crossed my mind while I had lain here but I had no clear answer to it yet. I was not sure what I wanted to do after my stay here. Looking back, I realised that ordinary living was
The Alpha's Slave Alehouse
“And what would that be?” I asked. “Why are you here and not helping Moana plan the wedding? I can sense there is trouble in paradise already seeing as you are trying to get drunk,” her voice had become low and teasing. What she was really trying to tell me was that I could take her to my bed if I wished. I appraised her. There was no doubt she was a beautiful woman. Once upon a time, I had a crush on Ava. It had been when we were much younger. Then I thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world but today? I wanted Moana. I tried to drown the thought of Moana by taking another gulp of my beer but I found that I had emptied my pitcher already. “I can make you forget what is on your mind. You can trust my discretion and I assure you my skills are from experience,” she winked at me seductively and I swallowed. It was a tempting offer but I was about to get married and I felt a responsibility towards my bride. “I shall pay for our drinks,” I said to the bartender, dropping
The Alpha's Slave A Different Woman
“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.
