Alpha Nathan clapped his hands again and his Beta appeared again from behind the counter. The man walked to a side door and went in. Moments later he returned, leading a lady behind him. The lady stood before the two Alpha's and was dressed in a long gown that fell all the way to her ankles. She wore rings on her ears, nose and her eye brows. She fixed Landon with an intense gaze and Landon found himself shifting uncomfortably under the gaze. The lady appeared to be in her mid thirties but still her feminine beauty was perfectly outlined. "Meet Shireen." Nathan introduced proudly. Landon turned and gave Nathan a stern look. "What exactly are you doing Nathan." He asked, his confusion evident in his tone. "Please what exactly I'm I to do with your Shireen?" Landon asked sarcastically. "I can see your heart and it is not at ease." The woman Shireen spoke up suddenly in a deep voice that almost sounded like a man. Landon looked up abruptly and his eyes locked on the mysterious woman's
Jessica was stunned by the news she received from Vicky that day. Jessica had warned Vicky to keep this bit of information to herself and Vicky swore that she would do just that. Jessica had always envisioned Draven to be a fearless and invincible Alpha as a result of his strength and might that relied mostly on the curse he suffered. Hearing that there was a weapon to take Draven down scared her and she began to see Draven as vulnerable too.What scared Jessica the most was the nature of this weapon and she wished that Draven were close for her to tell him the truth behind everything but Draven was away and no one really knew when the Alpha would return to the pack.Her days were too long and her nights stretched out longer than the days as Jessica waited patiently for the return of Draven. To see how serious Jessica was About keeping the weapon a secret, Jessica did not even discuss the weapon with her mother. She wanted Draven to be the first and only person she would tell about th
Landon was not one to take betrayal likely. Who would have thought that out of all the people be detested the pack it would be his butler Tom Madison who would be caught spying on him? The boy was really scared. The boy was all shivering when the Alpha held him strongly by the hand and glared at him.The boy was even more terrified when Landon bellowed. "Who put you up for this? What gave you heard?" The boy knew that to reveal who sent him would be another issue on another level and to keep this from Landon would not mean well for him either. The boy was in a tight fix and Instead of blabbing on and saying things that were not meant to be said, the boy went silent."Speak up boy!" Landon thundered shaking the boy roughly by the hand. "Speak up or I'll have your guts for gutters!"Tom Madison shivered roughly without saying a single word. At this point Landon got so angry he half dragged Tom to the pack house and threw the boy to the floor. "What's going on?" Leo Madison asked when
The last days had been a blur for Jessica. Alpha Draven was out and had taken the Beta with him. Jessica's father Sebastian had gone with him leaving the house kind of empty for Jessica. Her mother would go to work early in the morning and sometimes would come home late so Jessica would spend most of the day alone. She was sitting thus at home on this particular day going through her magazine while sipping a coffee on the porch when the sound of an approaching vehicle made her look up immediately. The red car skidded to a stop in front of the house, sending up a cloud of dust. The dust finally went down and Jessica saw Mateo emerge from the car and made his way towards the house. Mateo wore a blue coat over a matching blue shirt and pants he had glasses on as he approached the house. Jessica sighed and closed her book, waiting for Mateo to approach. What was Mateo really doing here? Was this because of the disagreement they had at the pack house? Jessica wondered. "Good day, Jessic
Alpha Landon ran all the way to the pack house, as fast as his legs would carry him. The unexpected news had come as a shock to him. He had finally taken his mind off this thinking everything had finally settled in the past and would finally leave him be. Just when he had begun to revel in his newfound peace, the message had come to him that Jenny the Creighton girl was found by a search party mounted by one of the cabinet members. Alpha Landon needed to take charge of the situation quickly before his secret would be discovered. He raced past the people in the street without even a look at them and all those he passed stopped to look on in surprise as the Alpha raced past. What would cause the Alpha to run thus? Everyone wondered. Landon pushed open the pack house' double doors and broke into the room breathlessly. "Where's she? Has she spoken yet?" Landon asked breathlessly. Leo Madison, Zoe, and Ronald the man who found Jenny were the only people in the room and their gaze turned
By the time she got to the house, a few persons alerted to the disappearance were already there moving about the room. When Jessica entered, the first thing that met her nose was the sweet smell of the chloroform. She had been meddling with the chemical too often in the school's laboratory to miss its smell. Although it was hours later, her heightened sense of smell could pick the smell up as clearly as if the chemical was right before her. "Jessica. You're here." It was Mrs Lopez who spoke to her. Aside from Mrs. Lopez, Mr, and Mr.s Norbert, there was also Mr Gonzales who limped about with the utmost urgency and alertness. "I came as fast as I could," Jessica replied, gazing at Vicky's books that were scattered on the floor. "What really happened here?" Jessica asked, puzzled at the scene and what she heard. "Our girl has probably been kidnapped." Mr Gonzales spoke up. "By who, we don't know yet but we can tell that whoever did this was careful not to be found." He added. Jessica
The stay at the howling wind pack had been a very busy one for Draven and his companions. All they literally did was train, train, and train again. Beta Asher and Sebastian proved to be most resourceful and useful and Draven would not stop marveling at their loyalty, hard work, and dedication. The members of the Howling Wind pack were dedicated and committed to working as well to secure their pack and defend themselves from those who would seek to destroy it. Draven and his company had been staying at the pack for days now and no attack or rumour of attack was heard. Their days continued normally and with the approaching full moon, Draven began to look forward to his return back to the pack. He knew that if he stayed for up to the full moon, there would be no chamber to contain him in his blood lust, and at the same time Jessica was not there to keep his blood lust at bay. The army they trained was smarter, stronger, and better in every way now and Draven believed that they were now
The silence in the packhouse was heavy, laden with the weight of Vicky's absence. Every howl of leaves, every howl of the wind, sounded to echo her name, a phantom pain in Jessica's heart. The hunt party, dispatched with hopeless haste, had returned empty-handed, their faces etched with the same despair that gripped Jessica. They had returned with nothing but evidence that Vicky was really gone, taken by the Moon Shadow pack. The agonizing details of what Vicky would endure, the cruel torture the Moon Shadow pack was notorious for, replayed endlessly in Jessica's mind. A visceral rage churned within her, a burning desire to claw back her friend from the clutches of those savage wolves. It was a rage directed at Mateo, a rumored curse on his neglectfulness, his naivety! But as the days bled into weeks, her wrathfulness began to fade, replaced by an eating pang of helplessness. Mateo's guilt was not to be missed, his guilt a heavy cloak he carried with a stoic determination, quietly s
