“ How do you know him?” I asked, staring back at Alpha Seymour while he glances in my direction through the rear mirror. Beta Greg is beside me in the backseat, I am sure the bruises on his body are not caused by the sudden break earlier.
Something is wrong. I know Beta Greg is doing his best to save his brother but Alpha Vladimir is not worth saving if he hurt his own brother. I cannot believe my eyes realizing how much hurt he looks.
Alpha Seymour sighs. “ He’s working with me. And the Tri-Alpha. You really don’t know?”
“ I-I…He told me he wants to save his brother. Beta Greg knows who I am before the Tri-Alpha. There’s no way he’s working with them.”
There’s no way.
He tied me to a tree. I cannot see anything other than the light of the moon shining above us. It was too bright to not notice but my surrounding is too dark to even hope for light. I don’t even know where I am right now. All I know about is that he drags me out of Alpha Seymour’s pack and deeper into the woods. Someone drags me out to this area.It only took him enough strength to cage me here without anyone noticing. While I am busy struggling to get out of these bounds on my body, he was busy polishing his gun in front of me. The serenity of this place didn’t give me peace. Something about it bothers me.“ You can’t kill me,” I muttered glad that he didn’t put something in my mouth. The taste of my dried tears still lingers at the end of my tongue. “ I’m the heiress of the Erebus pack. I
Where is she?” I shouted at Alpha Seymour, gripping his collar. “ Where the fuck is Victoria?!”“ Calm down, Alpha King. My men are searching for her everywhere. I’m sure she’s just around the corner,” Alpha Seymour said pushing me out of his way.But heck. How can I even calm down when I know that something is definitely wrong. She will not bail out of anyone’s sight like this. Something is wrong. I must find her.“ Fuck, Alpha King. Where do you think you’re going?!” I heard one of them say but I don’t care. I continue to saunter into the woods to find her. I don’t trust Alpha Seymour’s warrior to find my mate. It’s been fucking hours since she’s gone and if I won’t see her for the next hou
“ You told me you’re going to release her,” I growl watching Lourde tying Victoria across the tree in front of me.I followed him and bound myself too tight that I won’t rip these fucking ties and kill him in my own hand. But seeing how my mate is fucking wincing against his touch riles up all of those fucking restrictions.My gaze darkens. “ I told you to leave her alone! She got nothing to do with all of these, Lourde. My mate has nothing to do with all of your shit. Release her!”He growled. “ Shut up! Shut the fuck up!” Lourde shouted running towards my direction and pointing the tip of his barrel into my chest. I can see murder in his eyes. It didn’t bother me. What bothers me the most is the silent sobs that I am hearing from Victoria&rsqu
“ Victoria!”“ Alpha King!”“ Fuck!”I cannot move. My hands cannot move as I felt the gush of blood leaving Alpha King’s body.Alpha Seymour, Alpha Riley, and Alpha Zac are all here. The warriors are all here but I cannot move. It’s been minutes since Alpha King closed his eyes.I looked up, seeing Alpha Seymour’s face. “ You told me! You fucking told me this is going to work!” I shouted at him still stopping Alpha King’s wound to stop from bleeding. The blade that I used earlier is now gone. His brother too is now gone. “ You told me he’ll wake up! That he’ll survive but why hasn’t he opened his eyes
“ H-How! How the hell are you alive?!” Alpha Seymour shouted as I look through my tears and found my mate, Alpha King’s eyes staring at me.The blade that I am holding met the ground as soon as I embrace my arms around him. I cannot believe it. “ I-I thought you’re dead…” I whisper against his nape.“ I cannot leave you hurting, little wolf. I just can’t,” he whispers and turn me around to face my teary eyes. I can never believe I almost lost him earlier. He smiles. I never saw him smiles at me like that. “ Don’t cry now, babe,” he said leaning down to reach my ears. “ We have a warrior pack to claim right?” he winks.I was fascinated to see him alive that I cannot help staring at him as he face the warriors
Alpha King’s POV “What if we’re in the middle of the war? Will you leave them and be with me instead?” I glare at her and shove down her coffee to shut her up. Alpha Zac and Alpha Riley are checking some things in our alliances and I opted to spend time with my mate. Yeah, this mate thing is fucking hilarious. I felt like I cannot function a day without seeing her face. Maybe, Alpha Ryder is right. Claiming her is the worst thing that I did because right now, I can’t even focus. Fuck. I should be in the middle of the war, searching for things to make us one step ahead of Alpha Vladimir and his evil plans but I can’t. All I can think about is Victoria Stephens. All I can care about is her. Did she eat? Did she escape my room and found her way back into the streets? Did she try to leave me again? I don’t think I can last a second in the war thinking of her like that. I love her. That’s why I claimed her. Heck. My love for her only
Victoria Stephens We’re made of darkness. Each one of us is dark in our own way and we all know about that. We recognize our darkness just as how we recognize how the world could be. None of us tried to hide it. We embrace each other’s darkness as we tried to supply each other’s greed. The tri-alpha is greedy for power, to the kingdom, and to dominate while I am only greedy for one thing. I am greedy with Alpha King. I won’t deny it. I only want him for myself and sometimes it felt like him being the executioner fails him as my mate. And so, In the middle of the war, I held Alpha King’s hand. I don’t know if I’m selfish or maybe I’m cold for doing this but I had to. Alpha King wants me to live and I want to live with him. Everyone is busy surviving so why can’t we think of surviving too? If being selfish is what it takes to be alive, I am going to be selfish for us to live. I wanted to live with him. I wanted to live wi
I nod.My heart felt every remorse, pain, and all the emotions that I had never felt in my entire life as I accepted her words.Victoria Stephens remains staring at me. I can see blood in her eyes, in her hands, and everything about us right now doesn’t define a peaceful life.Heck.I never lived a peaceful life. All I did was to fight, to survive and shed blood because I was told to. When I was young, my father never raises war for me, he seeks for it and sends me to get killed. It’s his mission to get me killed because having two sons with the urge to dominate is nothing but a curse.He plans to kill. That I know of. Every damn time that he sends me to war, he wishes for me to not return and just die but I didn’t. It took him long enough to realize he couldn’t kill me. And so, he blatantly favors my brother, Lourde to be the alpha next in line.That’s the main reason I left our family.However, I cannot
“ Is this what you hope for us, little wolf?” I felt Alpha King asked behind me, his large arms embracing my waist as he sways our body into the tone of his hum.I cannot answer but instead I let him sway our body into his tone. “ It’s peaceful,” I choke on my own words.It’s sunrise. Every day, he’ll wake up and stare at the sun rising as if he longs for something. The only thing that can console me is to be with him when the sunrise came. Because, just then, I can feel his love as pure as it was. I can feel him whole, and undivided by our past.I nodded and smile against his touch. Alpha King never disappoints when it comes to his sweet gestures. He lives to fulfill his word of drowning me with his love because I do. I do drown in the way how he showers me with his unending love.But sometimes, it made me hold my breath to survive. And most of the time, it suffocates me.Just being with Alpha King behind
" You left, Alpha King. I saw you glancing at us, but you left. You fucking left knowing that we might get killed on that day," Alpha Riley shouted as he pushed me to the ground.All I can do is groan and accept his anger. It's true. I left them in the middle of the war thinking of chasing a life in peace. Fuck peace. I don't think anyone hated peace as much as I hated it.I was wrong chasing a peaceful life. I was so fucking wrong.Alpha Riley groans. " Get out!" He shouted, shoving me away. " Get the hell out of my face and don't ever come back. You ruined the tri-alpha. Alpha King, you didn't fail yourself. You failed us," he said.Fuck. I never knew Alpha Riley's words were as sharp as this.I chuckle to myself and nod. " You're right. I failed the tri-alpha. I ruined us. That's why I'm here to fix us, right? I wanted us whole again."" No," he scoffs, shaking his head. " The Tri-Alpha will never
