Alpha Zeus’ POVI knocked again and pressed the bell at the same time. When no response came, I assumed she was deep in her sleep. Maybe I should just go and give her a call later to know how she was. No! I would not call her. She would get the wrong idea. I was just about to turn and walk away from the door when I heard a click. Oh, it appeared she heard the knock. I stopped and positioned myself properly. But when the door opened, a wave of confusion swept right across my face. A lady, who was not by any means Kayla, stepped out of the room. On seeing me, she tilted her head down in a low bow. That was something Kayla might have sworn that come rain come shine, she would not do for me. She was just someone who had no slightest, not even the faintest trace of fear for me. "Alpha Zeus Ludendorff, I greet you." I studied her for a short while. I could not recollect anywhere in my thoughts that the room Kayla stayed in would be changed. So, who was this person and what was she doing
KAYLA'S POVWhen it was morning, I had no idea. I slept all through the night. I could not help myself yesterday. I could not bring myself to believe that I had been fooled again by my stepmom and stepsister. The two were playing with my emotions. I thought I was now a tough girl. It didn't even take Adire much time to break through my walls and ruin my day. It only cost her fake tears. I had been deceived, totally fooled by the tears I saw escaping her eyes yesterday. Chloe tried to warn me. But I acted as if I was smart enough. It ended up landing me in a bigger mess. If I had listened to Elena, I would not have had to suffer the hurt I went through. After the incident with my stepmom and stepsister, I had to stop by a roadside joint and drink a couple of bottles. They were enough to get me to forget my sorrows, even if it lasted for just a night. I turned on the bed and dragged the bedspread over me. I slowly opened my eyes to be welcomed to reality by a head-splitting ache. It
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI had a very stern glare that passed a proper message to Maxwell. Kayla was off-limits. He had no right to look at her sexually. Maybe I was being too protective of her. I found myself always worrying about her. I cared about her well-being more than any other person. Could this be love? Was I growing a soft spot for her in my heart? That would not be possible."I am sorry, Alpha Zeus," Maxwell apologized to me. "You should not be directing that to me," I said curtly and returned to my seat. "I believe you know better who to direct your apology to." I threw a glance at Kayla. She had a very cold expression on her face. Did she hate me that much? The thought of what the First Lady said last night flashed to me. "Kayla isn't a fan of yours..""Uhm. Ma'am Kayla, I sincerely apologize for—" "Mtcheew!!" Kayla drew a long sigh in the air and disappeared from the living room. "Oh, that didn't go as planned," I said and reclined. "She disappeared. Did you guys fight?" M
KAYLA'S POVI was transfixed at a spot. I could not even move a muscle. It felt as if I had been injected with a paralysis poison. My world was crushing so heavily on me. Three days? How could he have said that? What would I be able to do within a space of just three days? It made no sense. He was obviously trying to get back at me for stating the truth to his face. I was sure of that. But why was he so mean and wicked? The worst of it all was the fact he had referred to me as a slave right in the open. Even if he wanted to do that, he could have at least turned his voice down. There was no need to shout it. An Alpha princess turned to a slave. People were around. A couple of my colleagues were out there. My heart was burning. I felt a crushing weight grinding so hard against me. Why did it hurt so much? I just found it hard to understand the Alpha. He acted like he cared a whole lot about me. But in the actual sense, he did not. What exactly did he want from me? He definitely didn'
KAYLAI turned immediately and saw her standing at the entrance. Was she referring to me? Definitely not me. I looked around. But there was no one else she could have been talking to. I could not even recall the last time someone addressed me as an Alpha princess. "I think she is calling you," Chloe said to me. I eyed her. "Me? I don't think so," I said in protest. There was no way she would call me that. It was strange. "There is no other Alpha princess here, Elena," Chloe persisted. "It has to be you. Go and answer her." I was still reluctant. She never called me that. Why would she do that now? It was out of the blue. "Alpha princess!!" She called out again. I was looking at her. But I could not even make a move. I was still trying to confirm if she was referring to me. Eyes were already watching. The people looked around to know who the Alpha princess was. If I made a move and it turned out to not be me, it would really be another shameful thing to add to the archive. I woul
ALPHA ZEUS' POVIt was the moment I was crowned as Alpha king of the darkest moon pack. The moon was very full and bright. The sky had no stars. Right in the presence of everyone, I went down on my knees to receive the crown of glory. My father, the then Alpha king, sat on the throne. I could see the look in his eyes. It was that of fulfillment and joy. I never really thought that a day like that would come. Even when Maicon was beginning to show the traits of one who would be a tyrant on the throne, I still could not imagine myself as the Alpha king of the most dreaded pack. I had tried to warn him a couple of times. But that was when we still had a relationship that allowed us to have a talk as brothers, right before the rift began to form. My father got up from his throne. "Tonight marks the end of a great cycle. However, it is the beginning of a reign that would be more glorious." My face was without any sort of expression on it. It was a very serious moment for me. Being the on
Alpha Zeus"Alpha Zeus," he finally said, "are you alright? What happened to you?" I said nothing in response to the question. I was still trying to get myself in order. I looked at my hands. The claws were still out. I withdrew them to their place. Then, I drew in a deep breath which I slowly let out. "Alpha Zeus, what happened to you? I was scared to death just now." "Mtcheew!" I let out a sigh of relief. I was glad I didn't lay a finger on Maxwell. If I had done that, it would have been more terrible. "I'm fine, Maxwell." "No, you are not," he said in protest. "Do you really expect me to believe what you just said?" Of course, I was not stupid enough to think he would believe there was nothing wrong with me. But I could not bring myself to say anything about my fears. I would not dare to say I was scared. But was I really scared of Maicon? "Give me a couple of minutes, Maxwell. I will be with you downstairs." "You mean I should let you be for now," he said. "Alpha Zeus, is t
KAYLA'S POVThe third day had already come. It was a dream to me. It appeared time had slipped off my fingers. In a twinkle of an eye, three days had passed so easily. Well, it was yet to pass completely. After today, I will be forced to move my things into the house of Alpha Zeus Ludendorff. I hated the thought of it. It was strange. After the talk I had with First Lady two days ago, I was without fear of anything. It seemed my dear was wiped out. I had it in my plans to go and see Diego. He would probably have an answer to the question about the bracelet. His place was the last I visited before the decision to fully become a stripper. But somehow, I seemed to have knocked the thought out for two days. That felt strange. But all of a sudden, all my worries returned toe at a go. Everything I was once scared of came to me again. "Kayla,you are making us weak again," my wolf whispered into my head. I rolled in my bed. "But it is not something I can help. Elena, you know better than
ALPHA ZEUS' POVKayla? Why would he want to talk about her? I felt my hand almost slipping away from his collar. But my curiosity kicked in. I grabbed him tightly again. "What do you mean to say?" I queried in a thick tone. I hated the fact he even mentioned her name. "I can't talk if you keep acting this way. Everyone will think we are about to have a fight, Zeus." "I don't give a damn what anyone thinks. I just need to hear what you have to say." "Hmm," he exhaled heavily. "Get your hands off me first. Then, I will say what I have to say." I glared into his eyes for a good while before letting go of his collar. "Please, have a seat," he said and settled down. I hesitantly did the same thing. I was on edge. All I needed was to hear the reason for which he had to mention her name. "I'm listening," I said. "Spill everything you have to say." "Do you want a drink?" He asked. I shut my eyes and opened it. A new flash of anger was in them. "Are you just going to beat about the b
ALPHA ZEUS' POVMy eyes were grim and rusty from the anger that boiled in my body. I sat in the back of my black SUV with an expression that screamed a great deal of impatience. I stole a glance at the screen of my watch. It was already about fifteen minutes before it was eight. "Get this shit going faster!" I yelled at the driver. "Sorry, Alpha," he said in a fearful tone. "I'm already speeding more than necessary for safety." I smirked at him. "Are you trying to school me here?" I asked in a thick tone. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again." In that instant, he got the wheels rolling faster. I winded down the glass and had the fast blowing breeze brush against my contorted face. I was boiling and greatly needed a way to cool off. I shut my eyes and tried to coop off. But it was not working out. The moment I shut my eyes, other strange thoughts started to go through my head. What could they have talked about? I could not stop wondering what Maicon had been saying to Kayla that made
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI was pacing quietly in my room when my eyes caught something in the premises. I paused my movement and drew close enough to the window. Then, I saw it clearly. The very reason for which I was pacing was just there. Damn it! Kayla was driving me crazy. She defied my orders. I was very direct when I warned her not to have anything to do with Maicon. But she would not listen. She was obviously bent on driving me to the end of my limits. What was Maicon looking for? What did he want with her? My thoughts could not stop running wild. I was ready to face whatever package Maicon returned with. I was waiting for him to make the move once again. Only then would it be justifiable for me to attack him. But with Kayla in the picture, my jealousy was getting the better side of me. I thought of going down there and drag her all the way up to my room and have her warned again. But I could not make the move. I just could not do that. Maicon was obviously trying to get into her head.
KAYLA'S POVMaicon, without a doubt, acted like he was some kind of devil on his own. The way he showed up was always baffling. I was in shock again, just like the time he stood before me two days ago. "Hello, Kayla," he said with a familiar grin. "Good morning." "Good..good morning," I reciprocated his greeting. I was disoriented and needed to get my composure back. "Kayla, who's there?" I heard First Lady ask me. "Is everything okay?" "It appears you are with someone," Maicon said calmly. "Am I interrupting?" "Kayla, who's it?" First Lady asked as she pulled the door open wide enough. "Oh my… Maicon," she said and giggled half-heartedly. "Hello, First Lady," he said. "How long has it been since I saw you?""That should be a couple of days ago, at the event," First Lady replied. Maicon scoffed. "Well, the last I remember is kind of more awkward. It was not so pleasant. Do you remember?" I could sense the atmosphere of the place getting stirred up. First Lady appeared to know
KAYLA'S POVFor the next two days, I could not find the appetite to eat properly. I was always locked up in my room doing just one thing. And that was to cry as much as I could. I simply wanted to cry my heart out. It was hurtful. The more I tried to endure, the more the tears flowed. I could not help it. Even after I got rejected by Diego, it didn't hurt so badly. But somehow, it hurt so terribly that I wondered if I was going to live through it. Despite everything Alpha Zeus Ludendorff was doing to me, I still had the growing urge to love him more. I was helpless. Hating him was not possible. I already tried that. I got up from my bed and walked to the mirror. I was already a shadow of myself. My eyes were all swollen. Anyone who saw me would definitely know that I had cried my entire being out. Nothing was left. Yet, the attraction I felt towards him did not fade away. I asked myself why a couple of times. It made no sense. The Alpha showed me nothing but his mean side always. Wa
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI was angry and scared at the same time. Seeing my brother sitting that close to Kayla got me very angry. I was concerned for her safety. Perhaps, it was beyond just being concerned about her safety. I clearly saw a glimpse of smile and joy on her face the very moment we got here. That was something she never really gave to me. With Maicon, she seemed to be relaxed. And that was frustrating for me. At first, when I heard she left the premises, I felt bad. My fears were yet to kick in. But on knowing that it was Maicon who had made my men go against the clear orders which I had given to them, my anxieties creeped up to my throat. He obviously pulled that off so he would be able to approach her closely outside my watch. Damn it!"Hello, brother," Maicon said and got up to his feet. "I was not speaking to you!" I replied to his gesture in a fiery tone. "Come on, Zeus," he said. "you don't have to be on edge. Calm your nerves." What? Calm my nerves? Why was he acting to
KAYLA'S POVIt felt as if time had come to a sudden pause. My phone was still glued to my ear but my eyes were fixed on the devil standing in front of me. Maicon! What was he doing here? Could he have followed me all the way to this place? The thoughts of everything started running through my mind all at the same time again. The rear was that he would come for me the very moment he returned. But wait! That would only be the case if he was the guy I practiced my seduction test on. But if it was not him,why would he care to get involved in my affairs?"Kayla," the voice of Chloe called me through the phone. "Kayla. Kayla." I was lost. I could not even speak. I was just looking at him as if I had seen a ghost. "Kayla, are you there?" Chloe asked again. A smile crossed the lips of Maicon. "Are you not going to respond to her?" He asked me. He was talking about Chloe. Oh yeah! I literally forgot that he was a wolf and had his way of hearing the faintest sounds. I became even more scare
KAYLA'S POVI was transfixed at a spot. It felt as if I had been injected with a paralysis poison. I fought hard to see if it was a mere dream. Who knows, I might just be sleepwalking. It was not real. It didn't have to be. Alpha Zeus Ludendorff flashed his eyes at me. Those deep eyes of his seemed to be staring right into my soul. He was not bothered by my presence."Alpha… Alpha Zeus Ludendorff," I said in a shaky tone. He said nothing. He simply pulled out of the whore and pushed his cock into his tight boxers. Then, he turned to me. For a while, I forgot that I was in shock of what I saw. My eyes at that point were glued on the cock that seemed to be desperately fighting to escape the prison of the boxers. The tip was visible through the corner. It was that long. "What are you doing here?" He asked me in a firm tone. "And why didn't you knock , at least?" Hearing him speak, I was drawn back to my reality. The lady he was with curled herself and looked at me in a manner that cle
KAYLA'S POVThe next morning, I was still not able to get a hold of myself. Everything seemed to be working desperately against me. I could not get my mind off the reason for which Diego pulled off the stunt that he pulled last night. I was restless. Alpha Zeus Ludendorff did not have to see something like that. He could have simply taken a little more time to barge in. By then, I would have pushed the bastard son of a bitch away from me. Everything seemed planned to me. It was not a coincidence that he was there. How did he even get to know about the welcoming party that was to take place? Besides, that place was the hidden venue of the darkest moon pack— a place that was kept sacred from the touches of modern civilization for many years. But somehow, he got to be in there and lured me out by using a little boy. But where were they all at that time? Neither Maxwell, First Lady, not even the Alpha himself was anywhere to be seen at the time. "You should apologize to him," my wolf whi
