Landon entered the house and carefully scanned his surroundings. The atmosphere was busy and the air filled with the chatter of the drunken men. Landon gritted his teeth angrily. This was what he was reduced to. The Alpha of the moon shadow pack now reduced to carrying out meetings in pubs and shadowy alleys.Alpha Landon pulled the hood of his coat tightly to his face, he could not risk anyone to identify him here. He made his way to the corner where he knew his accomplise would be waiting. True to his word, Jasper James was seated at a table in the corner waiting patiently for his Alpha. Landon plopped down in the seat opposite Jasper and looked around carefully."Fear not Alpha. This is a secured place. You can take off the hood of you please." Jasper assured the Alpha.Landon looked around again apprehensively. All the men were either exchanging blows or chatting loudly in a drunken state. No body seemed to be paying him attention so Landon slowly lowered his hood. "We're done fo
What could possibly happen to Draven? What was wrong actually? Jessica could not deny the way she felt even before Keisha came calling. She had a feeling suddenly as if there was something wrong? The feeling came all of a sudden and strong on Jessica's sub consciousness, the Alpha was in pain. Without waiting to ask or be told anything, Jessica dashed pass her mom, Mrs Lana and the messenger herself. She headed straight at Draven's quarters, running as fast as he could run. Draven was hurt and she needed to be there by his side. Blood coursed through her veins with adrenaline and her little heart hammered against her chest with so much force it seemed her chest would burst open but Jessica ran on. As she ran, she passed one or two people in the hallway who were surprised to see her coming but Jessica ran on, unfazed by anything. Soon enough, Jessica arrived at the meeting room. Without wasting time, she threw the doors open with so much force that made the doors break away from it'
Chapter Forty Four "Koncleia?! Why would you declare koncleia?!" Leo Madison screamed in shock at the Alpha's decree. Alpha Landon smirked smugly at the ruckus he had caused."The koncleia had not being declared for years... Who are you to declare it now?" Leo Madison asked angrily."I am the Alpha!!" Landon screamed like a maniac. "I have every right to declare the Koncleia and I've just done so." Landon established angrily with a rueful look at his father in law.The koncleia was a state of emergency that could only be declared by the Alpha. The koncleia could only be declared in the case of war, external and civil and also when the quest for leadership threatens to throw the pack into chaos.Landon had gotten the revelation to declare koncleia from his trusted aid, Jasper. In the case of a Koncleia, all power and ability to make decisions in anything and everything fell back to the Alpha and the Alpha alone.Alpha Landon knew that with this new strategy all would fall under him wh
Jessica was simply shocked to see Landon standing before her. What was he doing here in the Bloodmoon pack?! Was she really not dreaming? Jessica thought as she looked into Landon's eyes. "Jessica......""Hold it!" Jessica snapped before Landon could say what he wanted to say. "What are you doing here?" She demanded fiercely. "What do you want? How did you get here?!" Jessica asked againAlpha Landon looked hurt and pain under the moonlight. Jessica could see the stress lines and bags under his eyes. It seemed to her that Landon was not sleeping much. She took a moment to scan his whole body with her eyes sharply, taking note of his disheveled clothes and his unkempt hair which had grown full. Landon was not taking proper care of himself lately, Jessica deduced. There was a time she would have felt bad and sorry for his state but at the moment, what ever love she felt for him was replaced only by hatred. "Will you talk or would you have me raise an alarm?" Jessica threatened. "Plea
Draven was agitated as he paced the meeting room taking long and powerful strides as he did so. His hands were clasped behind his back and his brows were furrowed in serious brooding. He paced about quietly for a while totally immersed in his thoughts and then he stopped abruptly and turned to his only companion. "Are you sure of what you say?" Draven asked gravely. "Yes, Alpha." His companion replied, his face masked as he sat in the darkest corner of the room. Draven seemed to continue his pacing but for a while. He stopped abruptly and turned again. "You did well. But this is not the time for us to go public. This is not the time for us to act. I hope you understand that?""Yes Alpha, I do." The man in the shadows replied, his voice calm and steady giving no emotions the man might have been feeling. "Good." Draven nodded. "You're dismissed. You must return immediately, otherwise, you'll be missed." Draven ordered and his companion rose quietly from the shadows. ******Jessica'
By the time Alpha Landon returned to the pack, dawn was almost breaking. Landon's anger made him storm the pack house angrily, not even bothering or trying to be quiet. He opened and closed the door loudly then proceeded to head straight to his room. However, he was intercepted by Zoe. "Why so much noise this early morning? You didn't sleep in?" She asked. Landon stepped back in uncertainty, his eyes fixated on her face as if she would sprang on her at any moment. "You're keeping tabs on me now?" He asked. "You declared Koncleia and put up a curfew. Why will you do that if you can't keep to it yourself?" Zoe queried. Alpha Landon went pale with rage. He remembered the discussion he overheard between Zoe and her father concerning him and he was simply seething with pure rage.Zoe sighed and inched closer to him. "Landon." Her voice softened. "How long do we keep fighting hunny? How long do we continue like this?" She continued to inch closer while Landon moved back in pure horror.
For a moment no one moved a muscle as Alpha Landon, the woman and the girl stood in a face off. The woman's face was filled with horror and terror at what she had witnessed. Landon's mind worked frantically in an effort to come up with a way out of the mess he was in. The woman slowly began to back down and Landon knew what he should do. Landon launched at the woman swiftly, his eyes glowing dangerously red and his claws which were already glistening with blood of the husband going for the blood of the wife and daughter too. Maya reacted very fast. She pushed her daughter behind and moved forward, willingly sacrificing herself to save her daughter. "Run Jenny!! Run!!!" Maya screamed as Landon grabbed her into the room. Her shout was short lived as Landon slashed her throat, silencing her. Landon rose quickly but the girl was gone! He dashed out of the room and did a quick scan but could not see the girl anywhere. Landon would have gone on to search the streets for the girl but the
Alpha Landon returned to the pack house and sneaked into his room quietly hoping that no one saw him. He headed straight to the bathroom where he immediately peeled off the blood stained clothes from his body and entered the shadow at once. He scrubbed his body very hard and roughly as if the blood of his victims had left permanent marks on his body. Landon knew he was slowly losing his mind and it was all because of the Madisons. Landon was slowly becoming a different person entirely because of the situation he had plunged himself into, the moment he married Zoe. The husband and wife he had murdered that morning continued to haunt him but what totally upset him was the little girl whom had witnessed the act but was now nowhere to be found. Landon was simply terrified and would not risk suspicion towards himself and by so doing, he could not order a hunt for the little girl. By the time Landon stepped out of the bathroom, his mind was at peace. At least he was satisfied that his
