Draven sat in his quarters alone and in deep thinking as he rapped the table unconsciously with his fingers. The events of that afternoon were still fresh in his mind as he sat there quietly, just thinking.The door opened slightly and a small figure stepped in. Draven did not even bother to look, he knew who it was already. He had perceived her long before she even opened the door. It was Keisha, his servant. "Alpha, Isabelle is outside demanding entry." Keisha informed. "Tell her am busy." Draven replied. "She insists Alpha."Draven remained quiet. "Alpha, she....""Tell her I'm busy..." Draven snapped angrily causing Keisha to jump in surprise at his sharp voice. Keisha turned immediately and hurried outside. Draven remained quiet, brooding calmly, his mind running quickly with thought after thought as he sat there. His sharp ears caught movement outside the door. It was as if a struggle was going on out there. The door bust open abruptly and he could hear Keisha gasp. "I'm s
The blood moon was several nights away but still he felt himself slipping into that familiar state. That state were everything seemed to irritate him. Alpha Draven was brooding alone in his chambers, what exactly had led him to this state of mind? Someone would wonder. Draven was in his rage mood and to top it off, Isabelle was being a nuisance. Isabelle had known him for a very long time since when they were little but Draven really felt nothing towards her. "Alpha?" The voice came outside his door softly interrupting his thinking but the Alpha heard it no doubt. Someone wanted an audience and he needed to grant them one. "Come in." Draven said gruffly and the door opened with a soft click. Beta Asher stepped into the room. "I'm sorry to intrude on your evening Alpha." Asher apologized. Asher paused but there was no response from The Alpha. "We have a visitor Alpha." Asher added. But still no response from the Alpha who sat in his chair staring outside through a window with a fa
Silence reigned in the room again as Draven surveyed Nathan's face carefully. The latter's eyes remained fixed and locked unto his host's eyes as they stared on as if having a telepathic conversation. Draven finally sighed and lay back in his chair, a sign for his Beta to take over. "And for what reason should we rally with you Alpha Nathan?" Asher asked. "Mutual benefits Beta." Alpha Nathan replied. "We both know that my pack supplies the finest coal and wolfsbane which is the thing you require most here at blood moon pack but seem to be in short supply of." As Nathan said this, he flashed a look at Draven. "What I'm saying is that I have a lot of both at the midnight pack and I promise unlimited supply to blood moon pack in exchange for a partnership.""You make a fine proposal Alpha Nathan." Asher replied. "But blood moon pack bows to no one and we're certainly not a week pack. Whatever army breeds in the North, blood moon pack is more than capable of handling such... ALONE." A
Her mind wandered away from the lecture easily. Jessica was thinking about a lot of things as she sat there in class that particular day. She thought about the possibility of a way to find her wolf immediately, Isabelle had told her this. She thought about the curse that lingered around Alpha Draven and whether it was possible for such a curse to be lifted. Jessica also thought about her new unlocked strength and she felt comfortable thinking about this because this clearly marked that she was not without a wolf after all. "Miss Lyon are you with us?" Her teacher, Mrs Derrick asked abruptly, bringing Jessica's train of thoughts to an immediate halt. "Y...yes Mrs Derrick." Jessica replied hastily and after a moment's stare, Mrs Derrick went on with her teaching. Jessica sat up and tried to pay close attention but then something caught her attention. Isabelle's two best friends were in the class but the former was absent. Isabelle was not one to miss a class or school, yet she was n
Jessica pressed the doorbell and stood back, hearing it echo its ding-dong from within. She stood in front of a semi-detached house she believed to be where Isabelle Lana lived. The house was surrounded by a well-trimmed hedge and a lawn well-trimmed as well. The house exuded wealth as Jessica observed it admiringly. Jessica heard no sound from within to indicate that her call was answered so she hit the doorbell again and waited calmly. Jessica was intending to hit the bell again when the door opened abruptly and without warning. A woman stood in the doorway dressed in a yellow top and a pair of jeans trousers. Jessica gathered immediately that this must be Isabelle's mother judging by their same color of eyes and hair. "Hello, can I help?" The woman asked. "Umm Miss Lana, hi. Is Isabelle within?" Jessica asked quickly. The woman turned immediately and called from behind. "Isabelle... There's someone here to see you."Jessica stood at the door uncomfortably waiting. She didn't w
"You seem surprised." Mr Lana laughed when he noticed Jessica's unease. "Don't be surprised. Knowing things is what I do." He winked. Jessica however remained skeptical and all of a sudden, she felt insecure sitting there with Mr Lana. "I should probably go now." Jessica said as she stood up abruptly. "Of course Jessica." Mr Lana nodded casually. "Of course. You need to return to your family. I imagine they'll be really worried now."Without another word, Jessica left the room, walking back home as quickly as her little legs would carry her. And as she left, her mind continued reeling about the the events that had occured that day. She could not shake off the feeling of being watched and even though she had stopped twice to scan her environments, Jessica could not see anyone in sight. She turned and sped on quickly, eager to reach the safe confirms of the pack residential building. ***"How is this possible? Who authorized this?!" Alpha Landon thundered at the men who had disturbed
"Alfredo was my most trusted servant! He was the very best! Who is this little boy you've replaced him with?" Landon thundered. "This is Tom. He's my nephew." Zoe replied. "Tom? Your nephew? That's why you saw it fit to fire an experienced servant isn't it? We talked about this, did we not?" Landon asked angrily. "Wait outside Tom." Zoe said to the new personal servant. The boy turned to walk about. "Don't you dare move an inch." Landon growled at the boy and the boy stopped in his tracks. "You take this boy away from this place and you'll bring back Alfredo as fast as possible or else.....""You'll what?" Zoe snapped. "You'll cast me away the way you did to Jessica Lyon? I'm your Luna Landon, and I don't have to cower and hang on your every word. I'm not your servant."Landon was taken aback by Zoe's words. He had never ever imagined that Zoe would fire back at him this way but here he was, receiving it from his newly wedded wife. "I'm your Luna Landon. It means I have a level
The next days went on in a blur for Jessica. Isabelle continued with her anger towards Jessica and her reluctance to even talk to Jessica. Jessica on her part decided to keep her distance too. Alpha Draven was hardly seen around and he stopped his frequent visits to the school. This was the normal way everything was, before the arrival of Jessica to the pack. Jessica, with her now heightened strength had accepted finally and whole heartedly that she was going to find her wolf eventually. She focused more in school and even more so when it came to the trainings while carefully staying away from Isabelle and her cronies. Thus did Jessica continue her life at blood moon pack. "It's been days now since the Alpha last visited. Any chance you'd know why he hasn't dropped by lately?" A boy in Jessica's class asked. Jessica was paired with him for science practicals and Andy was using this opportunity to nag at Jessica. "How I'm i supposed to know?" Jessica replied nonchalantly, focused o
