Anya zhukou"What did you say?" I asked.I couldn't contain it, the anger that washed through me.I have always known there was more to this god-damned twenty-five years ago than the fucking story my father told me.The annoyance in me, the one I liked up from the way my mother still won't want me to know, was the same one I used in bringing them back."Is this true?" I asjedy.Judah remained silent, same as my parents.What was this?"Why aren't any if you answering?" I was yelling. "Tell me you knew him all along," o added.It was painful, that even with the way I was feeling,they still won't burdge.Heartwrecking to be exact.I lived my life since I came back to their pleasure. They never cared if I was pleased is pissed. Never did they for once ask me of my experience. Not even once…Needless to say, they never cared.I scoffed.Making promises are what I am good at, but still, at some point, I just hate myself more than I hate them."We.. we did it for y.." I couldn't let her com
Anya zhukouI continued working on what I heard, that it isn't over till it is over.If my instincts are right, Gabriel is aiming at something even more worse. Derrick and I are only just the key to whatever idea he might be having.I thought about it all through the night, I couldn't sleep nor do anything. It was troubling, knowing Derrick was the only person there, in their cruel hands.Nala, same as me; all she could do continually was to growl and groan… nothing more.It felt like needles, pricking hard at my chest, wanting to break me.What would I do if eventually I lose him to them? What if Gabriel uses me for his god-damned plan?I knew nothing to answer those questions but I know I was no longer safe, same as Derrick.It was funny, seeing that Judah used to be my friend,been Derrick.All my life I feared nothing more than being bullied by him but one thing struck me..Why couldn't I remember?Judah was long gone, leaving just my parents and I.They looked worried, the same wa
Judah LopezIt fell into place right after I met with Anya's parents. The bastard had an initial motive but used the war as a distraction.I remembered the look on their faces, especially on Anya's.The look of disgust and dispair. The look that showed how much I irritated her. I made her like that and could only console myself that I derserved more.Finally, I have her back.Not as a mate but friend. That's what she used to be.I felt assured but still, it was like something was missing.Truly, Derrick and I never did got along with ourselves, not even twenty-five years ago, but still we remained a group of friends.From what I heard, Gabriel only needed Anya and Derrick for whatever plan he had, then why did I so appear at the orphanage? I wasn't even a royal, just a random pup born of a random wolf, so why?I had asked the same question but still, it felt like a missing knot.What could have made me appear there?It was like the same question that Anya asked, why she couldn't reme
Anya zhukouI waited till the next morning that felt very slow and tiring.At every tick the hands of time seem to take, it felt like Gabriel was at the end of it all, waiting for it to remain stagnant.He passed,Yes,He made a fool of everyone, even with his own brother and nephew. Knowing it would be filed as treason, he went ahead to risk their lives instead.It was still hard to believe, that with a maximum of just a night, everything was wrapping out only to point at him.The asshole.Throughout the night, I could only think of the worse.To only guess of how wrong it would be if I don't make it right.Yes,The thoughts of Mira, her words the last time we met. Belle Delphine? Hayley? Carter? The orphanage?While we enjoyed victory, he was already ten steps ahead, waiting to plot them out.Fuck!!Finally, after what seemed like years, a new Dawn began.Somehow, it was peaceful and heart-wrecking. A calm before the storm should be the perfect definition of how it all felt.Prepari
Anya zhukou"I am not sure if the details Anya, but I was sure that he had something to do with my mother's illness." Mira answered.Illness?"W..why would he want you mother to be I.. ill?" I asked."It was connected to something of twenty-five years ago, Anya" she added.Twenty-five years ago.?I expected it.The same way I felt uneasy was the same way Nala felt. Mira couldn't say anything about it not because she couldn't, I figured she just doesn't know.It was heart-wrecking enough, the agony of losing someone precious.Mira lost her mom, the same way I lost my parents or rather, the same way I would lose Derrick."What is his aim?" I murmured between breaths."Why do you ask?" I heard her ask."Judah..!" I answered.I couldn't stay for long, even if I want to, they might be tailing at me, knowing Mira is out here might be dangerous."It's nothing to feel worried about, I should get going. Should you not come to the clan?" I asked."Common, you know how hard it is.." she answered
Derrick MooreAs usual, the day wasn't any better, at least not until I perceived a familiar scent. It was Anya's but still, I stayed rooted.It might be another trick of theirs, to lure me to do their biding. Since I started playing along, I wasn't any longer myself.Cut off from my thinking, the butler informed with his head bowed…"Princess zhukou; she's here" I heard him say.It could have probably been my ears but my sense of smell wouldn't fail either."Anya.." my eyes darkened.Not waiting for him to explain further, I was already out the door at next moment. I missed her, my body, soul and even my wolf… I wanted her just as much, but with the situation, with forces that we aren't even sure about, it became hard.I stepped into the massive living room, there I met her."Anya?" I said but that wasn't my voice alone, Hayley's too.We both chorused.From the look of it, I smelt trouble.What was she doing? Why did she come?All of these were questions I hoped to get the answers e
Hayley ArresThe fear in me continued to blossom. That wrench came, all the way from zhukou's.. did she know already?I had nobody to ask.It was scary enough to know I could have died if Derrick had not step up.Her eyes were laced with so much hatred that I thought I wouldn't survive.My limbs trembled at what would have happened but I bottled it all up.Why was she here?It was shocking.After Derrick left with her, it didn't change anything. Her scent was diffused round the room I almost had an attack.I fret for the worse, but Gabriel's word kept me going.Right,Gabriel.I rushed into my room, anger fueling the rage I had in before.The cunning uncle promised for my safety, was this it?Was that the safety he promised? What if Anya had snapped my neck? What if she was able to wake Derrick's memories?The mobile ranged for the thirteenth time, he wasn't picking up.Did he ditch me at the end?My heart was already in my throat. Remembering what Judah said about trusting him, I be
Gabriel MooreI was already on my way to the house when I received Hayley's call.As of expected, I might be the person making plans, my heart wouldn't stop beating out loud even when I have nothing to fear.Cathleen, I miss her.I expected Anya to have found out about the plans, she's quite the type to catch up quick.I expected her to be in Nikolai's even before but it felt like I was to eager.Who would have thought I trained both pups at younger age.?Who would have thought I was seen as their uncle twenty-five years ago?That was what I want.To lay confusion…To burdge their curiosity…!!Perfect.It might have been rash but if it were not for the flames of twenty-five years ago, Derrick would have died; my brother, Lorenzo would have been stripped off as Alpha because of overwhelming emotions.I planned it through and yet, my bastard of a nephew survived.No,They all survived.His words never fa to put me in place, that I so much want to rip his face off.I went through a lot.
