"He Did Return"

2025-02-01 16:16:02Keegan chuckled, glancing up at her with a half-smile before returning his gaze to the flowers he trimmed, plucking a rose with meticulous care.
"You only impress someone when you want them to like you. That'll mean they actually have a choice. But for you, Sheera," he plucked another blossom, examining it briefly. "You don't have a choice. You're stuck with me either ways."
Sheera huffed. "You are joking, young man, if you think you have me in bondage here. Because you see, All I have to do as a lady is scream and a thousand men will come to my aid."
Keegan turned from his flowers, dropping the small blade he'd been using as he strode over to her. His hand slipped around her waist, pulling her close. A small smile flickered on her lips.
"You must be totally clueless, lady in distress, that we're the only ones here for miles. You're, indeed, stuck with me."
He leaned in, giving h

Kalaril had been handling some court proceedings when news of Keegan's return reached him. He ended the meeting immediately and rushed over to his quarters.Keegan was in the room when he arrived, taking off his coat. For sometime, Kalaril stood by the door, simply studying him, while Keegan, though clearly aware of his presence, said nothing."You're back," Kalaril said at last, breaking the silence. "Took longer than expected."Keegan remained silent as he draped his coat over the arm of his chair. "How has the Pack been?" He asked after what seemed like an eternity. Kalaril hesitated before nodding, not like Keegan was looking at him. "Things have been fine, although the people have been saying a lot of things. Zandov is still locked up."Keegan didn't even look up. "Release him."He walked to his study table, grabbing a random scroll and quill. Kalaril watched him but could hardly get an expression. "How is she?" He finally asked, getting the question off his mind. "What happene

For five months, she'd been on the road, going from one Pack to the next, one village to another, one town to the other. And finally, as she stood at the border, staring at the sign post, she couldn't stop the smile that touched her lips.Welcome To Eldermoor.It was boldly written on the sign post, and it was the first time Sheera was relieved since the start of her journey.Eldermoor was a small successful village, belonging strictly to humans. But they didn't discriminate against witches or wolves, or anyone else.It was where she and her mother always planned on moving to if they were to escape the Pack. From what her mother had told her, she'd been to Eldermoor once when she was very young, and it was quite peaceful, successful and calm. It was one of the best places to live.Sheera had gone through a lot locating the place. First of all, she had to g

"Get off me, you rat bastard!" She cursed, writhing beneath him. He was too strong. Gods, she needed her powers. "Rat bastard?" He laughed hard. "Now, that's a foul mouth. One that I like."He was about tearing off the fabric of her dress when someone struck him from behind. Sheera had seen the person coming and when the strike was successful, she sighed in relief. "Son of a... By the beard of Odin!" Her assailant groaned painfully, his hand clutching the back of his head as he scrambled off Sheera. Turning around, dread replaced the lust in his eyes. It was a young man, holding a wood, not looking a bit fazed but disappointed."Again? You're doing this again?" He asked with a heavy sigh.Sheera's assailant, now trembling, cast a nervous glance before turning back to her rescuer. "I—I—It's not what you think. We were just... me and her, we were just—you know?""Spare me your empty excuses. You can take it up with the Governess. She’ll be quite eager to meet you come tomorrow,"

Her tender moment was shattered by the door suddenly creaking open. She jumped. It turned out to be Ravyn who was coming in with a tray of sweets."Don't you knock!?" She snapped, quickly putting the shirt away into her bag."I do. Forgive me. This is my sister's room and I'm used to entering without knocking."Done stuffing the shirt away, she straightened up, her brows crinkling. "You come into your sister's room without knocking? What if—""I have been seeing them naked since the day they were born. Don't worry, it means nothing to me now."Sheera scoffed. Well, she never had a brother, so she couldn't relate."I brought you some treats," He set the tray down on the table. "Hope you enjoyed the food?""Yes. Thank you—for all these," she gestured around the cozy room."Oh, it's fi

"What is wrong, Sheera?" Ravyn took her hand, finding her mood worrisome.She blinked rapidly, her lashes damp with a sudden intensity as she forced herself back to the present.By the moon, she needed to pull herself together. Anyone could answer Morginna. She wasn't the only Sheera in the world. Once, she had seen someone in Howling Ridge bearing Naya's name. That didn't make them the same person."I'm—I'm sorry. I was—" She cleared her throat. "Let's just go."She continued walking, her pace faster now. Ravyn caught up with her. "Do you know the Governess?""No! Of—Of course, not," she replied too quickly. "The name, it just—It used to be my late sister's name. My younger sister. Hearing it again just...you know?" She chomped down on her inner cheeks. Her heart wouldn't stop pounding."Oh. Sorry for your loss, Sheera.""It's fine. Can we just move faster?"She suddenly wanted to reach home and bury herself in the pillow. She was shaking now.Morginna. The name wouldn't stop ringing

There was a gathering in the hall. The grand hall was a breathtaking architectural marvel that commanded attention from the moment one stepped through its towering entrance. It sprawled out in every direction, its lofty ceiling seemingly reaching for eternity.At the far end of the hall was a grand throne made of dark wood, inlaid with silver. But there was no one on the throne.Sheera saw a woman, standing before two men. The others gathered around, as if witnessing the scene.There were a lot of people in the room, but the woman before the men... there was something about her. And in that instant, Sheera knew she was the Governess.She was a striking figure, exuding an aura of both beauty and authority. Her hair was colored orange and flowed into silken waves down her back. Her skin had a warm, sun-kissed glow, enhanced by a sprinkle of freckles across her high cheekbones.Despite her beauty, it was her sharp emerald eyes that truly commanded attention—intelligent and shrewd, they s

"Where do you come from, Sheera?" She laid emphasis on the name, drawing it out as if to measure its worth.Sheera wondered if she could as well hear the racing of her heart."Thalentis," it took Sheera a heartbeat too long to respond.For an odd reason, she held the woman's gaze, not looking away even though it was like staring into the depths of the sea.Thalentis was one of the villages she'd come across. She'd spent several weeks there and had contemplated staying there due to the good acquaintances she made."Thalentis," The Governess repeated, her eyes lowering to other parts of her body. Slowly, she began pacing. "I have been there. The river was one of my favorite places to be. It's water was sparkling and...." she sighed. "There was always something so peaceful about it."Sheera cocked a brow. "Is that so, Governess? Because the Thalentis that I come from, the river is not so sparkling. It's one of the major concerns of the people. Majority of the time, we have to rely on rai

The whispers from the people grew louder, all of them amazed at her audacity.Morginna rose her brows, tilting her head."Please," Sheera added. "It's very important." Her eyes glistened with unshed tears now, one that Morginna noticed."Quite the nerves," Morginna muttered.Seconds passed. Sheera held her breath, starting to think the woman wouldn't grant her request."Everyone out!" She commanded, her voice revealing a veiled anger.The people scurried out, whispering and casting curious glances over their shoulders as the grand hall emptied.****†****†****†HOWLING RIDGE****†****†****†"This is not a good time, Thessaly. He's resting and believe me, you wouldn't want to bother him." Kalaril spoke calmly to Thessaly as he guided her away from Keegan's quarters.There was a maid following closely behind, holding a tray of treats which Thessaly had brought to offer the Alpha."I understand," she sighed wearily.

The Alpha's Third Mistress Late Into The Night
Hours passed.Sheera awoken on the ground, amidst a jumble of overturned carts and crates.She was bleeding from too many parts of her body. That was because she had crashed into some weapons from the cart.She grunted in pains, sitting up. She couldn't get to her feet. The pain was too much, and she was losing too much blood.Looking around, she noticed her horse was gone, which could only mean one thing—so was Thessaly.She remained there on the ground, waiting and hoping for help.After several hours, Morginna came just like she had hoped for.Before leaving Elke's place, she had gotten her necklace back—which Elke had been in possession of. Ravyn had been waiting outside the Fortress. She met with him, gave him the necklace and described where Thessaly was.Good thing Ravyn was smart and knew how to fo
The Alpha's Third Mistress At The Abandoned House
She'd seen Thessaly as well and didn't tear her gaze away. Thessaly was befuddled, a thousand questions running through her mind at once. What was she doing there? She was banished. There was no way she could have made it into Howling Ridge without being spotted by a Keeper or any of the Pack members. She shouldn't even be 'here'. Only Elke knew of this location. For several minutes, the two was silent, simply staring at each other. "Hello, sister." Sheera finally said, releasing a smile that was more sad than real. Thessaly's heart caught in her throat. She knew. She gave Sheera a head to toe stare, wondering if the labour pain had somehow taken her into some sort of trance. "You do not look too excited to see me," Sheera pressed. "Too bad. For five weeks, I anticipated this moment."Thessaly was too stunned to speak. But she forced herself to composure. "What're you doing here?" Her eyes darted around, wondering if she had come with someone else. "If you're looking for Elke,
The Alpha's Third Mistress Her Sister
When Morginna had revealed the truth to her that day, Sheera couldn't believe it. She'd trusted Elke so much and had been hurt when she didn't pay her a visit in the dungeons.Elke's knees buckled, and she sank to the floor, her trembling hands covering her face. "It's not what you think." Her voice wavered."Not what I think?" Sheera scoffed, staring down at the crumpled figure of the woman she once loved like family. "Of course, it's what I know, Elke. And what I know is the fact that you betrayed me! You were... You were more than a friend. You were like a mother!"She looked around the room, taking in the familiar sights that now felt foreign and cruel.She recalled when she and Elke would work on herbs together. How she'd get treated here. How she would cry to the woman and get comforted. Even the nights she'd slept over.To think the woman must've been moc
The Alpha's Third Mistress Down The Familiar Path
It took several moments for Keegan to reign in the tempest within him. But he wasn't done with her. No, he was far from finished. He had a search to lead and also wanted to know what she was doing in Howling Ridge despite her banishment. When Sheera told him what she'd discovered about Thessaly, he snapped, being in denial. "So, you take away my will, then return six months later to accuse my pregnant Mistress of being a witch?" He had asked maliciously. "I wouldn't risk my life coming here if any of these were false.""No. Maybe your life was worth risking because you think I'd believe you and punish Thessaly.""Then find her, Alpha. Find her and see if I'm lying."After a moment of silence, Sheera had added. "I swear on the moon, I am telling the truth. Thessaly is not missing. She sent into hiding, waiting for the Eclipse Moon which is only three nights from now."It took some more argument before Keegan gave into Sheera's words. he confirmed they were going to find Thessaly an
The Alpha's Third Mistress What She Took From Him
Keegan was just about leading a group of Keepers and warrior Hounds out in search of Thessaly when he noticed the Keepers dragging someone in. There was a small crowd behind them, indicating whoever had been captured was someone very important... It didn't take him long to realize who. It wasn't one of those moments when it felt like time had stopped moving and no one else existed but the two of you. For Keegan, time seemed to be moving faster than normal—the scene unfolding too quickly in his eyes, moving in a blur with the wind. Before him was the face of the woman he's made up his mind not to see again. It was the face of the woman he 'hated'. The one he wished to punish, the one that had tormented him all these months. She had her eyes locked on him as she got closer, and in that moment, he felt a heat that ran all the way to his heart. His frozen heart. His face twisted in fury, his silver eyes turning as deadly as tempered steel.Everyone was taken aback by Sheera's appear
The Alpha's Third Mistress The Banished One
ONE MONTH LATER. A lot had changed with Howling Ridge. Something different had taken place. Something dark. People were hardly ever happy. The Fortress was even worse—filled with gloominess at all times. There was just something that didn't feel good about the place anymore. Odessa and her mother were still missing. Keegan had searched desperately for them, but it was fruitless. It was concluded that she was either dead or had fled. A part of Keegan considered the fleeing part. He'd been very hard on her—physically, sexually and emotionally. He wondered if that was the reason she decided to run for her life. But a part of him rebelled against the notion. Odessa was not a woman to shrink from a storm. She had stood firm where others would falter. The thought that she might have run seemed like a betrayal of her very essence. He'd grown harder, the thought of everything weighing down on him—all he's lost and endured for the past year. The Eclipse moon was now but four nights awa
The Alpha's Third Mistress The Mother And Daughter
It had been a week since Sheera, Morginna and Ravyn embarked on their journey. The journey had been smooth, but it wasn't on that seventh day that Sheera realized her mother still had her powers. They'd been riding in the woods when they encountered bandits. Like they'd done to Sheera, they tried taking their valuables from them. The bandits outnumbered them, so confronting them wasn't much of an option. And that was where Morginna proved herself. To Sheera and Ravyn's surprise, she used her powers on them, defeating them easily. Of course she was a witch. It was just the first time Sheera was seeing her use her powers. When they'd finished with the bandits, Morginna glared at Ravyn. "I hope you know how to keep a secret." At nightfall, they camped as usual. Sheera and Morginna sat in front of the burning fire while Ravyn busied himself behind, laying on his back while munching on some berries. The mother and child were silent for a while, their eyes simply staring at the fire
The Alpha's Third Mistress Zandov's Concerns
Thessaly shrugged, resting a hand on her belly. "After the hunt, she said she needed to go somewhere. She said she'd come to the Fortress later." Kalaril appeared surprised. "Did she mention where she was going?" "She wouldn't say. When I insisted, she snapped at me. I feel a little bad that she might have used me to get out of the Fortress without raising suspicions. You know, it was her idea that we didn't go with any of the Keepers or maids." A Keeper came forward, taking the deer from her horse. Thessaly took a deep breath. "I am exhausted, Beta. What I need right now is some soft hands on my back." Kalaril chuckled, nodding. "You go ahead, Thess." She bowed before walking away. .... By nightfall when Odessa was still not back, it became a cause for concern. Her mother wasn't questioned, but she claimed she didn't know anything on her whereabouts. Keegan ordered Keepers to go look for her. It was a thing to worry about as Odessa had never stayed out that late before. Thes
The Alpha's Third Mistress The Required Journey
"Kathryn, you must think carefully about this." Morginna urged, walking at a fast pace beside Sheera."There is nothing to think about. I must go back and warn them." Sheera's voice was resolute, not looking at her."But you told me you've been banished. They'll kill you if you set foot there!""I'll find a way."They were almost out to the part where people could see them when Morginna grabbed her hand, bringing her to a stop."Think about this. You do no longer have a wolf. Whatever Thessaly does will not affect you. You'll be fine, Kathryn.""So, what?" Sheera scoffed, pulling her arm free. Her face contorted in a mix of frustration and pain. "I have friends, people I care about! I can't just... I can't just leave them there to die!"She attempted to leave, but Morginna grabbed her hand again."Wh
