She tried to quell the mayhems from the background as she ambled on her feet. She didn't care as her bare foot railed against on the floor hastily, she only cared about the tiny infant in her arms, sound asleep while sucking on her thumb, cute she would have purred as she usually did but she couldn't, not anymore, not when they were coming for her, she would have to cut their time with each other short.
As she hurried down the hall, a hoody over her head and the baby wrapped in a blanket, no one paid her mind as they walked past her, giving her weird looks but no one dared to ask, after all, she was the boss's wife.
Finally, the woman stopped in front of a door and knocked on it, the door swung open after a few more knocks and a young lady appeared, eyes widening at the sight of the person at her footstep.
Blue orbs stared scaredly into another set of oceanic orbs. "What are you doing here, Zelena?" The lady who just walked out from her room asked while the other woman known as Zelena glanced at every corner of the hallway, scanning for any suspicious eyes but she found none, she watched as the servants cleaning the hall went on with their works, clearly minding their business.
"Can I come in?" Zelena requested, staring back at the other hopefully. Gulping as she found a blank look on her face, her facial expressions read nothing and Zelena couldn't help but feel anxious, after all, they had never gotten along, what right did she have to ask of a favor from her but she was the only she could trust, their lives were in danger and she wouldn't drag her innocent daughter into this just because the gods decided to use her instead. "Please Mara"
The lady, Mara sighed before nodding and letting the other person with a baby in hand enter her room, slowly shutting the door behind her.
"What do you want Zelena, am not in the mood to have an outrageous fight with you" Mara instantly attacked as she reeled, crossing her arms over her chest, her blue eyes showing nothing but resentment for the other woman. What did she want?!
Zelena gulped, she could feel her throat tightening, she could feel her chest burn as she held the baby securely in her arms. "Please help me, Mara, you're the only one I could trust with this"
Mara scoffed and let her hands drop. She couldn't believe the audacity of this woman, seeking help from her when she remembered how she was humiliated by this same person because she once asked her for help. "What makes you think am gonna help a bitch as yourself and what in heavens name do you want my help with?"
The woman gulped once again, helplessness suddenly overwhelming her. "My daughter, She's an Omega"
Mara raised an eyebrow, unaffected by the announcement "So? - your daughter isn't the only Omega wolf" They were omegas too.
Who cared if her daughter was an Omega?
Slowly, the woman with the baby stepped forward, she held her hand out, where a piece of paper lay, she extended it out to Mara, who stared at it blankly, not wanting to accept but Zelena urged her to accept it. "You might want to see what's inside, I swear it benefits you"
With a scoff, Mara snatched the paper from the other and unfolded it. She stared unsurely at Zelena before scanning through the content on the paper and her eyes widened as her brain processed each word that was neatly written and sharply, her blue orbs met Zelena's helpless ones.
"She's the key, Mara and they are coming for her"
To be continuing...!
Reclining in an office all day could be monochromatic and depleting, well that was for some people but not the young alpha wolf sitting elegantly behind a large sliver desk, his hands working facilitatively as they pressed on the keyboard of his lab top, his organ of vision gunked to the flat screen.His hair was a maximum length, pulled back into a low ponytail, leaving a few strands near the front, and was tucked behind his left ear while the right side was braided.His weight was broad, bulky, and generously padded. His shoulders were beefy, active, wearing a black suit, he was durable and lusty. And let not forget his eyes, they were a gunmetal blue that looked as deep and seem to have a dark spark in them but what could be expected for an Alpha but his expression was gelid, no knife could compare to the sharpness of his jawline. His face was coagulated, stoic, and frosty that nearly sent the tempe
It was opaque, dusky, if it hadn't been for the brilliant moon that glistened up in the night sky, she was sure she would be galloping straight into trees. She scampered deeper into the woody heaven, rushing on her paws.The whistling sound of the wing around the trucks was brutal and it slapped severely on her cheeks, snapping of branches, crinkly floors and the twigs were crunching under her paw could be heard, followed by her panting breathes.The smell of animal scent, rotting wood, and skunk weed broke through her nose and she nearly gagged in the air but not powerful as her distress pheromones that followed her through the dark, dry forest.The earthy air, the acidic taste, and the taste of her sweat spread on her tongue. A surge of adrenaline rushed through her as she forced her legs to move faster and harder. She reeled her head back for a moment and noticed how her pursuers increased their speed, she pushed hers
Time went by a whirlwind for Scarlett and the wedding day came upon them. The Omega wolf soughed dejected as she aspected her reflection in the bathroom mirror, she was finally getting mated.“What a good day to die today’ she gibbed painfully.Shaking her head grievously, she strolled out of the bathroom, a robe covering her bare body as she came out to the hotel room she had been staying in for the past two days, her future mother-in-law was a very persistent woman.She slowly squatted on the bed and gazed intensively at her white wedding dress. She soughed for the hundredth time since she woke up that morning. Mating ceremonies were now held like normal weddings where they had to take vows and wear rings but the mate mark on the neck was the most essential thing, it showed she was claimed. She flipped her plum brown hair off her shoulders.Who would blame her? She was a polite soul and
With an unforeseen bull, the door of the apartment burst open without admonitory and two pairs of ballistic heels ambled in, forecasting the ones inside.“Mara!” The owner of those heels vociferated as she continued to storm into the house as if she inhabited it and a woman came scrambling down the stairs, a little boy at the age of five shadowing her steps but she instantly halted as she saw the unanticipated visitant in her domicile, instantly the middle-aged omega exhorted her son to return to his bedroom while she loomed her fellow Omega.“Zelena, what are you doing in my residence, how did you come to know where I live?” She pointed her index finger accusingly at the foaming omega.With a puff, Zelena threw her handbag on the floor and took an ominous step towards Mara who stood her grounds unflinching, not irked by her presence. Both their blue orbs grimaced at each other. “I divulged
Again and again, her body repeatedly met the arduous concrete wall and for the fifth time, she landed on the ground with a thud, wheezing heavily as she suddenly felt a feeling in her stomach swelling, her head battering and her vision went in haloes. She swore she would pass out if this persisted. She remained on the frosted ground, the sweats and tears making her black hair feel sticky on her body but a Yelp left her lips when her back met the ground again, she could feel every joint in her aching while five fingers tightly wrapped themselves around her neck, keeping her pressed against the wall, the pressure tightening.Slowly, her dull brown orbs met his dark one, noticing nothing but resentment, malice, and a glint of evil that made her quiver."Still not going to talk?" Zinan derided, the silly omega was more formidable than he gave her credit for."You preposterous Alpha, you never said what you wanted!" With a swing of her legs, she had n
Reid unclogged the hotel room door for his wedded wife, Scarlet. Scarlet hesitantly sauntered in through the door that was being held open by Reid. She briskly went to one corner of the room, her hands nervously held in front of her, dithered and sweating, eyeing her wedding dress that brushed against the floor. She could feel her heart hammering beneath her clothed chest. Feeling fraughed, she inspected the hotel room they would be spending the night in. The room was lavished and expansive. A large looking bed at the middle with red and white color sheets and a sparking headstand. The bed was covered with red roses scattered all over. The room looked neither too feminine nor too muscular, the walls were lighted colored, the curtains on the wall were golden along with a sofa and a tea table, a large wardrobe at the corner, and in the middle of the room was a glass table with a bottle of wine and two glasses. Scarlet shook her head abhorrently, everything looked so r
Hmmm…. Scarlet stretched her hands backward as her ambers eyes slowly fluttered open but, immediately shut them back due to the bright light coming from the glass windows that had the curtains wide opened. Finally adjusting, she opened them again. Leisurely, she sat upright, the bedsheets covering her lower body. Scarlet rubbed her still sleepy eyes as she tried to recall how she landed in a fancy-looking room. And just like lightning, everything came rushing back with full force. From the wedding to the reception to her falling asleep on the sofa while reading a magazine. But, how did she end up on the bed? With a disoriented mind, she scratched her messy brown hair followed by a thud on the door. Lazily, she dragged herself out of bed and slouched to the door. She unlocked it to find two unfamiliar faces, a male dressed casually and a female in office attire but she assimilate the man from th
“This is the bedchamber” Katty spouted as she unlocked a door. Scarlet slowly sauntered inside and her mouth instantly hit the floor at the awing sight. It was luxurious, intimate, serene, sophisticated, fresh, and inviting, Scarlet used all the words she knew that could describe what she saw as walked deeper into the room, admiring the spacious space, it was ten times bigger and nothing she had ever seen before. The designs were soft, using soothing grey and sliver to create a sparkling luxurious feeling.Scarlet saw Morden Chandelier that dangled over the large king-size bed, the floor was carpeted by a plush silvery grey carpet that practically felt soothing beneath her feet. She inhaled deeply, waking up in such a room would be like walking up inside a storm cloud. She nodded her head eulogistically. At least, another good thing came out from this undesired matrimony. “It’s has bee

When Scarlet and Sara were born, their grandma was able to tell who among them was the special Omega, she did make Scarlet bait for Alphas but the young Omega never knew of such till the day she was taken by Alpha Silvester.Their grandma had protected Sara and Zelena thought she was doing the right thing when she went to Mara with the baby and gave her a cheque which she obviously didn't need.Mara had left with the baby before the Marshalls were killed, however, she knew Zelena gave birth to twins, she had helped Zelena's mother hide Sara but she still took Scarlet from Zelena to keep her appearance. That night, she found a poor couple, Mr. and Mrs. Stones to take care of Scarlet and they did, they raised Scarlet like their own daughter, and never for once did she feel less. The little boy Zelena saw with Mara was her little son, a half-human boy whom she had after cheating on Eric's father, she gave birth to him without the knowledge of anyone and kept her appearance as Mara, a h
Reid paced from one corner of the room to the other, nearly racking his hand through his hair. How long did it take to deliver a baby? It had been hours since the doctor went inside and Scarlet had been screaming since. He couldn't go inside, he wasn't allowed to. He was the Alpha, why was he being restrained in his own house?Reid was overwhelmed with worry. Perhaps, he should have taken Scarlet to the hospital but Scarlet had insisted on delivering the baby at home because she hated hospitals and nothing was going to make her step in there unless it was beyond necessary."She's going to be fine, you have been waiting for this moment," Hunter placed a comforting hand on Reid's shoulder to stop him from pacing around."I'm worried, it has been hours," Right at his words, the screams finally died down and everyone held their breaths and soon, the sound of a baby crying reached their ears and cheers broke out, especially Reid who jumped into the arms of Hunter, u
Betrayal was the only fervor that wafted and spurted through Scarlet's backbones while being clamped to two fucking pillars and a sacred altar behind her, Scarlet didn't need to be a genius to figure out where they were.They were at where every Alpha would be the minute they get their hands on the special omega.The more she ogled at the person before her, the more she continually marveled at what she had forfeited. Unable to bubble the emotions anymore, Scarlet blurted out. "What the fuck do you think you are doing Silvester. Even if I die here, what makes you think you are going to get away with this?!"Alpha Silvester shrugged, holding his palm out and an exalted dagger was placed by Misty who was standing beside him with a ferocious smirk on her stupid face, Scarlet wished she could punch it off her face and from the dirt of the earth and at the left side of Silvester was Zinan, the man whom she thought was the Alpha of the Lamias but she was wrong, Zinan had always been a front
He grasped the hand of his office chair tightly, showcasing the veins on his hands as they got darker and more visible while he brandished everything in him fighting to snap out and inflict mayhem, that would be disastrous for everyone. Reid knew he was going to lose control, he knew the type of havoc he would erupt over everyone's head if they didn't find the whereabouts of his mate."Alpha,"His bloodshot eyes opened and they drilled through Rhett's skull. The Alpha maintained his posture. "Alpha, there's someone here to see you," he proceededOne thing Reid was sure about his men was they would never bring something as bizarre as the words that left Rhett's mouth, especially in his state if it wasn't vital to Scarlet's case.He nodded and walked out from his office and Rhett moved behind him and together, they arrived at the living room where Alpha Reid abruptly paused as his gaze landed on the lady occupying one of his sofas, sharing the same features as his mate.He scanned her o
Walking round the chair, Misty placed her hands on Reid's shoulders. "You are tensed, do you want me to help," she rubbed against his shoulders and leaned down, letting her breath ghost on his neck. "Like I've always done before Scarlet arrived,"Snappily, Reid twirled, his gaze piercing through her skull which made her step back. "Are you supposed to be here, Misty?" His tone was low and severe that it sent a coolness down Misty's spine."I-i-I..." she hesitated, words hanging in her throat from that sharp gaze. "I'm only trying to help,""I don't need it, get out!" He ordered but Misty remained where she stood."Why are you doing this to me, I thought we had something special, why do you keep pushing me away when I've always been by your side, I helped you when An-"In a snap, Reid was up on his feet, his hand clasping around Misty's neck and his eye went glaring a darker, and slammed her against the wall. "I dare you to complete that sentence!""Alp-ha"Sharply, Reid let go. "Get t
"Scarlet, honey. You shouldn't be doing that,"For the nth time, Mrs. Stone approached Scarlet standing behind the counter, attending to a customer."Mom, you are being paranoid, I'm only standing behind a counter," she beamed at the customer, waving to them. she whirled to her mother and gently nudged her on the shoulders. "Go away now, Mom, I'm fine," as soon as she was gone, she swerved to the next customer, a luminous smile on her face. "Hello, what's your order?" She picked up her notepad, ready to take the order and when she finally glanced up, she found a pair of dirty eyes gawking at her. Scarlet froze for a second, watching as the stranger plopped a gun on the counter before her. Scarlet nearly signed. Why couldn't she go a day without the unnecessary drama, not that she minded but she wasn't in the mood to get messy or stain her parent's restaurant? She hissed. "Do you have the license for that, it's very dangerous to carry around, especially in an open place like this," sh
"You can't keep me here, Alpha Reid is going to find out you took his mother," Mrs. Martin spat, scowling at the face of Alpha Zinan who dragged a little hand chair and sat in front of her with an amused articulation on his face."I can't believe you deluded everyone, you even had me, Mara,"Mrs. Martin bolted, "What are you talking about, who's Mara?" She implored, testing the waters while Zinan had finally lost his last bit of patience and hauled the blonde wig on her hair, revealing black hair beneath. He grimaced and flung the wig to the corner of the room.He smirked at her appalled expression. "I believe you thought no one would find out you have two identities as a Beta and an Omega, Mara, no wonder I had difficulty finding you. You were busy being Reid's precious mother," he verbalized, the words tasting bitter on his tongue. "The last time I saw you, I thought I told my boys to finish you off, I guess they didn't follow my orders,""What do you want, I already told you, over
He waved his hand in front of her face, snapping his fingers a couple of times but earning a sharp glare. He smiled. "Mom"Ms. Martin rolled her eyes and averted her gaze away from her oldest son, gawking at the blank wall of the hospital before asking. "Eric's dead, isn't he?"Silvester sighed, "He's badly injured and has fallen into a coma, his left hand is gone," he replied, waiting to see her reaction but he got none, she continued glaring at the wall while her hands clenched tightly on the sheets."And my mate?"Silvester poked his inner cheek. her mate? His bastard of a stepfather, would he be called cruel if he said he was delighted that the bastard was gone? Compared to the others, he took the blow extremely which had divided his skull. Tsk, what a cruel way to die. "He didn't make it" again, he watched her reaction. It wasn't like she married the lunatic because she liked him, love wasn't even in the question. "Are you not going to ask about Reid? " He inquired expectantly bu
