The ugly rumor about Vok made me so angry that I wanted to fight the people talking. One day I was ranting to Lake under the tree, we usually take rest when her face went blank. “… I don’t get why people are so fixated on him, he has a kid and so what? If he leaves who would take care of that child” I scowled. I wrinkled my eyebrow. That was weird. Lake had not said a word to me. She kept staring at me with wide eyes. “What? Are you okay? Is anything wrong with your eyes?” She kept doing it and I almost got angry. “Tell me what it is then? Come on” Someone cleared his voice behind me. I turned around and froze. Then I turned around again to Lake. “Was that why?” She nodded. She swallowed. “Lili I think I need to leave” “Hey—“ “Ssshh” she smiled and ran away. I shut my eyes. Oh no. “Lilith” came that deep voice. “That’s me” Look at me” he said I slowly turned around and there I was met the beauty. Damn! He was way better up front. “How long have you been here?” H
Taking one last look at myself in the mirror, I smiled, liking what I saw in the mirror. Today was another manual labor and I couldn’t wait to see Lilith. Since the last time we saw each other, I hadn’t stopped thinking about our kiss. Oh the things I planned to do to her. I heard a knock on the gate and I instantly looked up, with a smile but that was quickly wiped off. “Sean?” he smiled. “What are you doing here?” he went to open the gate. “I thought you had left with Alpha Amandla” he shook his head. “Not yet” he smiled. “I had to do this before I leave” “Huh?” “Come on we have to leave before it was too late” he pulled me along and we briskly out of the prison amidst all the shouts from the people. When we walked past the chief executioner’s office, I knew it had nothing to do with the alpha. Then we passed the visitation, I knew he didn’t bring Lucas to come visit. I dragged him and he stopped. “Come in bro, we have passed the visitation area, where then
I didn't need to be told, I knew the alpha had killed someone. Or many people. Judging from the weeping I heard down the maid quarters, I know doom has come. Most of the maids were daughters to elders. I still found it hard to believe they people will knowingly put your child through hardship just for an opportunity to the throne. Yes the maids had an opportunity. Their status can quickly change from maid to Luna in waiting if the alpha happen to sleep with them and it could be better if they bare him a child. An heir to the throne. Werewolves can be elitist. Half of the time they don't like to marry or mate with people of a lower class. They abuse the weak amongst themselves. That is why the alpha and Omega system is what is used in picking a mate. But then alpha Knox is not one to wander around with maids. If he was to do something outrageous like that, it would be two things. 1. He was drunk two 2. He has something up his sleeve. So I heard from Amelia. It was during the be
I slowly shut my eyes as I waited for him go sink his teeth down my neck. A minute turned to two and then five. All I could hear or feel was Knox's harsh breath on my neck. I blinked. What must be the problem? I tried to disengage from the hug but he held me still. "What is ha—" "Ssshhh" he whispered harshly. " I can feel it. Someone's here" "What?" And so went the silence. I tried to imagine Knox looking around. He was good at sniffing out things. He was smart. That's why I have given up on escaping him or even going against his will. All I wanted now was nothing but peace. For rest of the evening, I heard nothing but crickets. I sighed. I could feel my eyelids grow heavy. I blinked countlessly as I struggled to stay awake. I need to know how this ends. I need to know if this is just one of his plots or what. Slowly I struggled with sleep. Finally it won. It sold me away and went after much struggle. **************************************************************** I jerked
Alot had change since I let Knox feed from my neck willingly. He had grown sort of kind. Leaving fruits and vegetables beside the bed. Especially ones rich in iron. I tried to see how changed he was but on another thought, Knox might be caring to me because he wanted to. Maybe it was because he wanted to keep his food source flowing. You know, more iron more blood. Well that didn't matter. As long as he was changed, I'm cool. He asked that I stay on the bed too. And when I protested, he told me it was an order. These days he tells me where he was. What he went out to do. It was pretty awkward hearing things about the alpha. I was so used to his silence that I find it hard to come to terms with his words. I helped him quite a number of times. For past few days, he had been feeding consistently from my neck. And yesterday,he said I was free to go to the garden during the day. That was unlike him. Of course I wore a turtle necked gown to cover up my bite marks. And when it came t
"Amelia are you coming?" I looked up from my food and then shook my head. I had lost all my appetite as I kept waiting for some news. "You guys can head out" I said. Shelly nodded and left with the other maids. The cook walked past me." Hi Felicia" She smiled at me. She began giving me the extra respect when she realized I was the alpha's mate maid. She looked into my plate." You didn't eat anything" I nodded with a small smile. " I'm not feeling good" "Have you tried going to the infirmary" I shook my head. " Oh it's no big deal, it's going to pass" She stared at me longer. " Is it your period?" "Errrmm... Yes" She frowned. " Is that why you are being secretive?" And I chuckled.fonslly she left me when she didn't know what else to say. Thank goodness she left. The cook was a chatter box. As I stood up and dropped my plate, I worried about my plans. I haven't heard anything from Nina or the alpha. Did it work? That old healer promised it would. I sighed. Maybe it didn't.
The night was windy, cold and foggy. My Dad drove through the mountain road, flickering a glance at my mom, brother and me at intervals. "It's Christmas time, honey. What should we get for the season?" My mom asked with a bright smile that unmatched my dad's indifferent frown. He was troubled. The weary look in his eyes blended well with his frown which my mom didn't notice. "Let's get a chocolate fountain, Mom," my twin brother Kyle beamed. We were just six years old and almost coming of age for the mating ceremony. It was today and we were going to the venue. There was a rumor about us being the gifted twins in a prophecy of doom. And at the age of six, we would find our mates. My mom saw it as a blessing but it was a curse to my father. However, they both showered us with unconditional love and promised to protect us regardless of the prophecy following us behind. Dad took a turn, slowing down his speed as he reached the gateway. "Honey, did you bring the tow ticket? I think
The cage master began to act foolishly under the Alpha's murderous gaze. Even I couldn't stand his presence. He was known as the terror of darkness. An Alpha with a curse of the battlefield. Some said he was a legend handmade by the moon goddess herself. Rumor also has it that he was a god, heir of the underworld Lord. The devil himself. His presence alone was able to make a violent man tremble like a wet puppy. I closed my eyes to avoid his dark absorbing gaze. It was against the rule of the pack for a slave to behold the face of the Alpha. With my eyes closed, I could sense his intimidating steps stop in front of my weak bloody body. "Roger, slit his throat," the alpha command with a deep voice that made my body shudder in fear. "My Alpha, please I can explain... the slave disturbed the peace of the cell with her nose and I disciplined her according to the cell rules." The cell master quivered as he spoke. But that was the end of him. I heard the slushing sound of

I was no child. I needed no telling that people were talking about it. Everywhere I went there was eyes sure to follow. It didn’t bother me at all. Like I would care what the prison wolves thought about me but I wasn’t just going to sit down and let my good name be tarnished. Hedge turned out to be more resourceful than I thought. After that night, he went on doing things that always made my jaw drop. I tried to get him to stop but he pressed on. Because of how loyal he was, his men also began to be loyal to me. They tried to get me comfortable in the prison. I was like a mini alpha in the prison. Hedge made it easier for me to go to certain places. He was once the king of the prison. It was like he passed his title to me. I was informed of everything. Even to the ones I didn’t want hear. So when we got to the joint gender cafeteria, he quickly told me the reason people were staring at me. “ Boss everyone now knows you had passed up on the offer of being an alpha by marrying
I felt someone kick my leg and I immediately looked down. It was that young guard. He leaned into my ear. “Sir someone wants to see you” he said. I nodded and stood up but not without giving that girl from the other time a look. I was not going to ignore the fact I found her attractive but then there was something else. I just couldn’t put my hands on it. There was a pull. She was the only distraction I had after rejecting that offer from Alpha Amandla. I still feel lost not seeing him. I wonder how he was doing. My little boy. Lucas. It killed me being away from him not to talk of never seeing him again. Well I had all the time in here to find that out. I was called into the chief executioner’s office like the last time. “Wow it’s a crowd in here” I smiled. The alpha, Sean, Amandla, and the chief executioner was in. “Sir” he bowed to me. I tilted my head to a side. What was this now? Alpha Knox smiled. “The chief executioner here did a very good job last time” the man was gr
He asked me out! I couldn't believe it I was nervous as I got ready for my date with Vok. He had asked me after we both left the prison and I readily agreed. I think he knows I like him too. I spent hours picking out the perfect outfit, doing my hair and makeup, and rehearsing conversation topics in my head. I needed to be cool and fun in front of him. When he arrived to pick me up, I was pleasantly surprised to see that he had put in just as much effort as I had. He was dressed sharply and had even brought me a small bouquet of flowers. We went to a cozy Italian restaurant in the heart of the city, and as we sat across from each other, I couldn’t help but feel a little starstruck. I had always admired Vok from afar, and now here I was, sitting across from him, enjoying a meal together. “Do you love the meal?” Vok asked me. I looked up at Vok who was watching me intently. I took a bite of my food and savored the flavors in my mouth. “It’s delicious,” I said with a smile.
