ALPHA XAVIER POV

The dungeon was damp, dimly lit, and echoes with the distant sounds of dripping water. I stood at the entrance, having told the other guards at the common room to be silent. Dyelin, the mistress of spy, had met me the moment I stepped out of the castle of serenity.

"Have you been waiting here for me?" I was surprised to see her in the common room.

"I'm not the mistress of spy for nothing Alpha Xavier, I know the comings and goings of every Wolfshadan that matters." I nodded in satisfaction but then Theodrin's words flash before me and I tried to imagine her doing what Theodrin said she did, or does.

"Yet, you dimmed it fit to leave my mate to rot in this dungeon." I asked weakly, "or would your defense also be that you don't know she's mates to me?"

"Oh, I do know. I only chose not to get involved. Like you, this is the first time I'm visiting this outpost in a long while."

I did not know if I should be angry or grateful. "Why?" I asked softly and closed my eyes, even

    ISABEL POVThe damp dungeon suddenly felt very hot, the guards had rushed towards the cell when they heard me shouting at Alpha Xavier. But now, Viandrin and the rest of the guards were trying their best to be invincible.Alpha Xavier got to the intersection of the underground cell, where the staircase was, and turned and glared at me. I made a face at him, trying everything I could to communicate my dissatisfaction for his promiscuous tendencies.He stood there for a while before becoming conscious of the audience we had attracted. "Keep her here until I say otherwise Dyelin." He instructed a petite female in a very calm voice, who seemed to find the whole thing funny. I hoped I got to him, I wanted him to feel what felt, even though I believed he was masking his feelings and his smell. I had expected Alpha Xavier would be furious at Dyelin,the mistress of spy for laughing, and laughing so openly unlike the rest. But he simply moved past her and was off."Ahhhh!!!" I screamed and sat

    ALPHA DARIO POV The heaviness in my heart after Alpha Xavier defeated the Zuzkies was much. Although everyone in Thornridge was happy that we had been saved from the Zuzkies savages, it presented another issue for me and one I did not know how to handle."I think it's only fair that we say congratulations to Dario, who has been able to get the necessary aid needed to turn the tide to victory." Falko said as he made a toast with other members of the council."That I concur, Dario has proven once again that he's dependable." Leon joined Falko."I'd rather we toast to Alpha Xavier, whose army indeed conquered the Zuzkies." Eli spoke and everyone held their tongue in anger. "I remember we were all scared, with our tails between our legs, waiting for the Zuzkies to come before Alpha Xavier arrived with his mighty army. They rode night and day to get here after they heard that our defenses could not hold." He raised his ale. "To a proper Alpha!""Yea, to a proper Alpha." Tam replied begrud

    ALPHA XAVIER POV The night seemed like a long night and sleep was far from my eyes. What could have happened? Where did I get it wrong? One minute everything was going so fine, the next minute she was visibly angry with me, with no regard whatsoever for the implications. I had woken up long before dawn, restless and tired. Was I tripping or was something happening to me? I kept thinking of Isabel, unable to get her out of my head. She did have valid reasons to be angry with me, she's a female but I also have the right to do anything I want. "I will not be tied to one flaming female." I snatched my shirt and left.I had no destination in mind, something was pulling but then, I also felt like taking a walk. I believed walking would help me clear my head, and rein in on my emotions. As I walked through the streets, a sense of calm and peace started to wash through me as the early morning breeze greeted me.With no destination, I found myself in the cemetery and seated at my usual seat,

    ALPHA XAVIER POVThe entire castle hall was silent, everyone suddenly seemed to want to be in a different place at the same time but none could move an inch except I said so.I turned slowly to scan the hall, Isabel seemed grateful that Valerian had spoken up on her behalf. Marita was shaking her head slowly, in a silent plea for me not to react. Thalia had a look that made her seem like someone who wanted to cringe. I had noticed that Valerian was finally making advances at her, since I let the cat out of the bag during our fight and I also know she's Isabel's closest friend. So, I could understand why her expression was the grimmest of all.Theodrin seemed less concerned, and so did Dyelin. Kira seemed very concerned, I didn't quite understand her relationship with Isabel. "Of course, what was I thinking?" I turned and looked at Isabel and back at Valerian, and back at Isabel. "Yes, you are totally right." I casually strolled back to my throne-like chair, with a smirk on my face. "

    ISABEL POVThe room seemed to be buzzing with a sound I could not understand but it was having an adverse effect on me. It seemed like I was tuning to a frequency and it was difficult to resist. It seemed like my urge to mate was suddenly heightened.What was happening to me? Was I the only one who could hear that sound? He didn't give any outward expression that he could hear it, he didn't even look at me, besides occasionally looking up to take in all of me, he really didn't care.This was wrong, very wrong. I really wanted to mate, I had never had this feeling, it was similar to the same feeling I had, the night Alpha Xavier left me hanging, just close to my first ever sexual bliss. Was this Alpha Xavier's doing? Or was it Valerian's doing? Surely he doesn't intend to be intimate with me.The next time I looked up to his eyes, there was fire in it, there was yearning, there was desire. His eyes were not just that blue sexy eyes it was earlier, it was a shade different. "Is this roo

    ALPHA XAVIER POV The exquisite bedroom suddenly seemed uncomfortable. A familiar scent kept drifting through the room and was gone before I could catch a better smell of it. It was interfering as I poured over the different reports on my desk.A lot seemed to be happening at the same time that I needed to be right on top of. And it doesn't help that Dario is plotting against me, I possibly can't have Thornridge, Darkwood, Emberwood and even the flaming Belcheya all plotting against me. All it takes is for Dario to find out they all have a grudge and unite all of them against me. Emrys would never move against me, but he has warned me. I suddenly heard great laughter from down the castle and I felt angry. I was not sure if anger was the right emotion I felt, but I know I felt envy, and jealousy, clothed with rage.'Why are you jealous, you did cast her out, and mandated that she sleeps with Valerian.' I heard that still small voice in my head accusing me. "Burn her!" I cussed in a si

Sara had not told me sexual bliss that comes from making love, especially when you love that person and you know they love you too. Alpha Xavier had confessed his love for me but I suspected he was under the influence of the moment.I had woken up before midnight to Alpha Xavier eating me out and driving me crazy with his wicked tongue. He seemed to be pulling some unseen strings attached to my body and I reacted as he dictated the tune. We made love again, and laid there cuddled up while he planted feathery kisses on my chin and ran his hand through my hair. "You are here again? You must like him huh?" A beautiful lady, probably in her late teens, dressed in white, spoke to me."I don't know, he's the first man I've ever loved..." I started to speak but trailed off. "Why does that make you uncomfortable, and don't even try to deny it. It's written all over you." She said

He had seemed sweet and charming, he kept reassuring me that everything was going to be alright when we arrived in Wolfshade. What was I thinking, not everyone can stand up to Alpha Xavier like Valerian.Everyone tried to avoid me like a plague when I entered the castle of serenity, all of them trying to avoid the fact that I was stinking. The castle seemed deserted when I climbed a floor higher. "Wow, did you have a fight with a mule or something?" Kira greeted, with a hand over her nose."Yeah, my mate wanted it." I said with a smile and walked past her but then stopped and turned to face her. "Thank you

    ALPHA XAVIER POV It was around past midnight when I perceived a familiar smell, I knew that smell and the owner. "Alpha Xavier, are you still awake?" The voice whispered, whilst he crept in."Ace, I told you to remain at the border and wait for Dario to bring Rose to you." I whispered, trying not to wake anyone."Don't worry, it's too late already, I think they are holding little Rose in the main building." He said while he gently unlocked the chains around me. “I had a few of the fighters scout and find out what was happening.”"Hurry up," I whispered, "Dario's security comes to check in every fifteen minutes." Ace motioned for two other persons with him and they quickly got the chains off."What do you want us to do?" Ace asked, looking intently at me."Have you located where they are holding Rose?" I asked again and Ace was shaking his head when the other person beside him replied. It would all be for nothing if Dario finds out that a break is in and decides to kill little Rose."

    ALPHA DARIO POV I left Alpha Xavier angry and struggling to come to terms with what he was saying. Surely Isabel would know better to keep to her duty, she should understand at least that I won't deliberately hurt her. Kidnapping Rose, Isabella's daughter, was not the best of strategies but it was important to bring Alpha Xavier to kneel before me.A glorious future awaited Thornridge, but sacrifices were necessary to achieve it. I had envisaged this day and thought all Thornridgens that duty to the pack should always come first before anything else. I hoped that Isabella would still remember her duty and follow suit.I deliberately refused to go back into the chamber to torture Xavier anymore. He had somehow found a way to rattle me by bringing up Isabella. My actions were unbecoming of a parent, I should be ashamed and embarrassed by my actions, but I wasn't. There was no way that I'd ever have had Alpha Xavier bound and almost at death point if I had not done what I did."What hap

    ALPHA XAVIER POV The journey to Thornridge was an emotional one. The Wolfshadan guard insisted on following me despite my orders that they don't. There were Thornridgen fighters already waiting when we got to the border. "Alpha Xavier, I see you have come to surrender to the Lord Alpha Dario, just as he predicted. Stand your army down." A male spoke, I guess he was the leader of the fighters gathered here.I paused and took in the fighters that had come to welcome me and turned to see the fighters that had come with me. "What is your name?" I asked softly."My name is not important to you, I'm here to lead you to the Lord Alpha Dario." I noted that Dario had added another title to his name. The man was really pitiable, he has not yet gotten his victory but he is drunk by it already."I have journeyed for days from Wolfshade, but I will not move an inch if you don't answer me. You can tell your Lord Alpha to go fuck himself." I smiled and nodded behind him, for him to run along.Ther

Life was not worth living, why should I be alive in a world filled with so much hate.While I was nursing my loss, Alpha Xavier was trying to cheer me up but I could see that he was not normal.

On one of the occasions, she had come home in high spirits and demanded we make love but it didn't quite go well, as planned. Especially, after the last time we had tried but failed.I could see the sincerity in her eyes, in as much as I was bitter, I dare not lay this on her feet. I knew I was responsible for whatever she was going through. Verin had cautioned me against sleeping with another female, saying that it would destroy all the success we've made. But that was difficult, chiefly because I had a band of beautiful females who would only require a moment's notice to warm my bed.Alanna, the new Mistress of Spy was one who had subtly suggested that we could be more. She had gotten so under my skin that I had taken to avoiding her, and mandated that Valerian do the usual check in with her and hold strategy meeti

But then he called my name and I knew who it was before I raised my head. I would never forget that voice, the voice was with me always. Somewhere in the back of my head.An argument ensued but Sulin had me packed and seated in a carriage soon afterwards, regardless of how much I protested, she made sure I was on my way back to Wolfshade.It took two days to get to Wolfshade and I refused to talk to him. He insisted I eat and not allow my pride to harm the baby, his baby and that irked me the most. "Last I checked, you broke our bond and had me banished, with an order to have me killed if I ever set foot in Wolfshade. Are you leading me back to have me killed?" He paused eating and just looked at me, with pain and regret in his eyes. "Yes, I did all of that. I don't know if I will ever be able to love you right and atone for all the hurt I've

A small voice at the back of my head started to whisper the possibility that she could be dead. I felt the others had come to the same conclusion from their expression but no one wanted to say it."I want to thank all of you from the deepest part of my heart, for toiling with me these past few days." I gathered them all at sunrise, the moment we arrived at Wolfshade. "You have shared in my faith, my belief and my hope that she's out there. And have been relentless in searching for her, but I guess it's time I also share in your faith that maybe, she's not out there." I took a deep breath and wanted to howl, I wanted to scream, I wanted to cry, I wanted to punch the wall."Xavier, maybe you should..." Verin was still speaking when I raised my hand and cut her off.
