Looking like a walking dead with his hollow looking green eyes which had bags under them and with his wet and dirty clothes, Silas walked into the dungeon and dragged himself into the cell a guard led him to as he slumped weakly and tiredly on the cold floor.Donna had told him to drain and refill the lake within a night, he had thought she was joking but reality jammed hard on his face, she wasn't joking at all.Thinking he'd meet other people like him in the lake, he was surprised when he finally got the message that he would be the only one doing that strenuous work." Within a night?" He'd chuckled, he didn't even know the duration of time he used but all he could remember was he didn't and could never finish it in a night, he had slept in the still unfilled lake when he was asked to return to the cell." My neck." He groaned, massaging it with his worn out fingers." How blind!" He heard someone say which was followed by a scoff and his neck immediately snapped to where the voic
" Stop staring at me. That wasn't me, okay?" Leilani scoffed as she reached for the doorbell.She had managed to get herself back in control before Ava escalate matters but still, the Alpha was still grinning from ear to ear as he stared at her without looking away." I must admit, that was_"" Hold it there! I said that wasn't me, why the hell would I do such?" She cut him off with a scowl as she moved forward and away from his line of sight but he gladly followed behind her." My lips are all bruised, thanks to my mate who couldn't get enough of me." He murmured with a silly smile as if talking to himself even though he knew she could clearly hear him." You horny idiot!" She gritted at Ava who merely scoffed.She turned back to Kaden and truthfully, there were visible bruises on his swollen lips which had turned furiously red, it was so obvious what they had done because she could also feel similar bruises on her lips too.Grabbing his head closer, she heaved and sighed for minutes
" Welcome, Alpha." Tyron greeted as Kaden took long and quick strodes through the hallway." Get your ass here, Cole. Why the hell did you call for me when you aren't even here?" Kaden mind-linked the Beta when the only scent he was perceiving from his study was that of the Gamma." Restless? What's wrong?" He asked as he stepped into the study while Xander glanced up then sighed." It's nothing, don't mind me." Xander replied, tapping his feets on the ground like he was getting impatient about something, Kaden saw his action but kept quiet instead." Cole went where again? There are important things I need to do yet you've both been disturbing me to come over." Kaden frowned while Xander bowed apologetically and it was obvious he was reading out curses for Cole as he mind-linked him.After a while, the door burst open and Cole walked in, looking as handsome as always. " I'm here, I'm here, I'm back now and hey, I'm older, okay? You don't curse at me like that." Cole scoffed as he gav
An hour ago,Donna sighed as she collected a bottle of water from one of her colleagues who just let out a faux smile as he watched her gulp down the liquid down her throat." Do I need to apologize?" She asked and he immediately shook his head as he scurried off to another side." Today's been dull so far, got no preys today." Devin, a dark, big guard huffed, he was the fighter wolf who saw Silas the day he was arrested." Today's been dull but it's not over yet, I'm glad though, I'm really feeling unusually weak and lightheaded today. Nana didn't get a good sleep yesterday." Donna pouted, Nana was the nickname given to her by them but they rarely even used it for her.She only used it when she wanted to look pitiful before them or when she wants to act silly, they were all fond of her since she was the only female in their group.Everyone knew how close she was to Devin and maybe she was so attached to him because he had been the one to collect her and train her himself when she was
Umbrie was about to start searching for Leilani's phone when the doorbell rang and the ladies froze.Ivy's hand hung in the air, Umbrie had her eyes wide opened, Chloe had her lips tightly pursed and Leilani had a completely neutral but sad look on as she moved to the door." Where are you going to?" Umbrie held her back with widened eyes, her voice was coming out really small." Someone's at the door," Leilani smiled and the ladies glanced at themselves confusingly. Umbrie returned her gaze back to Leilani furiously with raised brows." We'll pretend as if no one's there, when the person gets tired, I'm sure he of she would leave. You really wanna go to the door like this? We're trying to keep things discreet but you aren't helping." Umbrie snapped and Ivy slowly started her work on Logan again, this time, blood was slowly seeping out of his mouth." Hey girls," Ivy called their attention with a fustrated look and they all turned to her slowly." I've been trying to suppress the ble
In the hospital," He'll be fine, right?" Leilani asked gently as she covered Logan's body properly, who had an oxygen mask placed on his nose.The doctor looked at the Alpha who was sitting and watching quietly before he nodded." I'm sure he will. He still needs to be watched carefully but he'll be fine." The doctor replied and after he checked Logan again, he left." Kaden," Leilani called and turned to him. " Why is a different doctor treating him? I thought the other one who treated me that day would attend to him. Are you sure he'll be fine? His injuries are quite severe." Leilani asked worriedly, referring to Harhan.Kaden tilted his head to the side with a frown and she also continued staring at him with the same frown." Aren't you worrying too much now?" He asked, throwing his phone in his shirt's pocket." Why wouldn't I?" She scoffed, averting her gaze from his." He will. Harhan treated him first already so stop worrying," The Alpha replied calmly and she nodded, looking
Before she could take one more step, the person appeared before her, in a burqa, a black burqa." Excuse me," she tried to take a step but the next thing she saw was a knife brandishing itself right before her eyes.Leilani immediately stumbled back, she swallowed as she gripped the shopping bags in her hand tight with her eyes locked on the face of the person even though he or she was completely veiled.Hold on, wasn't it the same person who tried to hurt her during a stroll with Logan the other day? Who had she offended so soon in a new abode?As she took steps back, the person was also taking slow steps towards her." Who are you?" She was trying to hear a voice at least so she could have an hint." Stay back, I'm serious. Move away." She called and this time, she was serious. She bit her lips when she recalled what happened to Logan, was she going to let Ava again? She had promised not to hurt anyone like that again but now?Would she later find herself guilty like she was doing
His familiar musky scent suddenly filled her nose and she turned." Where_?"" Let's go home queen, it's late already. Our little princess has been waiting for you." He said. It took a while for what he said to process in her head before her eyes widened and she started hiccuping." W... what did you say?" She asked but he only flashed her a ethereal smile as he held her wrist and drew her along to their car in the parking lot." I'm talking to you, what did you say?" She inquired again as she stubbornly removed her hand from his grip and folded them under her breasts like a stubborn child, Kaden simply smiled at her childish action." I'm not going anywhere with you anymore, okay? Leave me alone." She stated, rolling her eyes at him." You really love having my attention, flower." He grinned smugly which made Leilani scoff." Lani," he called but she didn't look his way. " Look around, we're outside and I think we're gaining some people's attention now, tell me, you want me to carry
It's been years and so many things had happened, the good and the bad things. " I swear we didn't mean to at all. Things just happened all of a sudden but.....I don't regret any of it. I never did." That was Umbrie's words when Leilani got winds of things. The baffled Luna had only kept quiet as she stared at her sobbing friend. She looked up and stared at the Beta who nodded at her with a stubborn smile and she sighed. They had expected Lord Williams and the others to flip about Xander's sudden relationship with a human who wasn't even his mate but the man had gave a warm response and had welcomed his son and his new partner with a befitting smile on his face and it was finalized. Since Xander's father didn't have a problem with them then no one could either. Though, they had thought things would end there but no. Umbrie had gotten pregnant to not only Xander's surprise and happiness but to the others. Their wedding took place immediately and Umbrie became the Beta's arranged mate
" Dad, have you seen Erica since we came back?" Leilani asked, slightly worried as the maids and guards she had asked to find Erica were just coming to tell her she wasn't in the tower." No. She should be in her suite, she said she needed to take a nap." Pedro replied and Leilani gave a more deeper sigh. Erica isn't in her suite at all.She, Kaden, Erica and her father were just coming back from the prayers of Daria and her mother, Luna Ami. They had accompanied Kaden to his parents prayers too and Leilani did caught the slight guilt that appeared on her father's face but she didn't say a word and she wasn't going to.He was going to be fine, he wasn't an unfeeling pillar not to feel guilty on hearing about Kaden parents so he'd be fine. " She has a maid, doesn't she? Have you asked the maid?" Umbrie asked, she was holding Lucian and like the little man knew her since a long time ago, he wasn't getting all cranky." Aliya, right? Yes. Beryl, is Aliya around or is she also nowhere
Dane smiled as he stepped into the royal chambers where different suites of royal personalities like the Alpha, the Luna, the royal pups, Lord Duncan, the Beta and the others. Surely, he wasn't allowed to enter even though he had told the guards he just wanted to explore the area but Lord Duncan had given them the permission to allow him.He couldn't even believe it. From being an ordinary useless being in the evil hands of Wymond to being someone he was now. If he hadn't taken that courage to escape from Wymond's dungeon that day, he wouldn't have being what he was. For saving the Luna and most people lives by using his brother, Silas and by snitching on Pedro, Pedro had instead forgiven him and given him a noble title in the Ice stone pack. He was from the Blue moon pack but since no one wanted to rule on the evil seat of Wymond where he'd slain many innocent people, the Bluemoon pack had been converted into a very large market during the renovation that was still going on.He
Slowly and awkwardly, Umbrie looked away but just as she did, she locked gaze with Xander whose eyes glinted up immediately as he saw her. He looked kind of surprised too but Umbrie only bit her lips, whether he was surprised or not, it wasn't going to make any difference.The lady with him looked familiar that Umbrie's gaze lingered on her for a few minutes but suddenly she frowned. She seemed to have remembered who the lady was.That lady was the one who heartlessly pushed her off Xander that day and now she was hugging his arm? There wasn't much words to be told, she already knew who the lady might be to Xander.She stared at him again and this time, they stared at each other for a long time that seemed as if they were reading their souls but Xander broke the gaze as he raised his hand and waved but Umbrie only looked away while the Beta sighed at her behavior and unknown to him, Chantel had finished looking around and had saw the little interaction between him and Umbrie who alr
" I missed you too, my pretty girl." Umbrie replied, pecking Crystal's face all around while the girl let out short giggles like she was being tickled." Where's Uncle Logan, Aunt? Mum said he'd be coming with you." Crystal asked and Umbrie shook her head when she turned around and didn't see Logan." He was here not long ago, maybe he wandered off."" Okay." She paused but then, her face lit up. " Aunt, have you seen my brother? His name's Lucian and he's the most gorgeous baby brother ever. He looks exactly like my daddy." Crystal giggled excitedly. The pride and happiness were all over her face as she talked about her brother." Now you're increasing my urge and excitement to see him. Your mummy didn't get a replica this time." Umbrie laughed and the blonde lady only glared at her." Now Crystal, where's Eugenia? I remember telling you to show her around but you returned without her. Where's she?" Leilani turned to her daughter who let out a stressed sigh." That's it, Mum. I don
It was past the new year already and there was a small gathering but the Luna wasn't among them as she had given her pack a short visit just few days of prince Lucian's ceremony. According to Pedro, she needed to. It had been a long time the people had seen her and she needed to go see them, postponing the visit might mean she was never going to visit her pack again because the children might have grown by then and it'd be hard to leave them all one.The Luna had taken her daughter along too leaving only the frustrated but silent Alpha alone, she ought to be back before her birthday celebration which would be celebrated in the tower so Leilani didn't take long in the Ice stone pack.As for Chantel, Xander planned to speak a few words to her father during the Luna's birthday celebration, he wasn't invited but he'd surely tag along with the way he loved parties. He didn't come to the cross over celebration though and they seemed to know why, it wasn't a vicious celebration like a bir
Lucian's ceremony was a success and his mother was in her best smiles all through. He had received uncountable gifts from all the guests who had came from all over to see and greet him, the alpha and the Luna were more mesmerized by the Beta's gift.Xander had made a clean frame from that picture he had snapped in the hospital. He had made a photo of it but had given a sculptor to draw and frame it and had given them as a gift, Lucian especially. Leilani couldn't stop staring at it, it showed Lucian on his father's chest as he slept with Crystal crouching behind her father as she stared at her brother and with Leilani by the side, staring at them with a smile.The love in the drawing was everything and Xander had been applauded for that gift. The Alpha and the Luna had hung the picture in their chambers, it was a special gift and anyone would immediately see it when he or she enters the royal chambers.As a royal prince that he was, he was given many royal gifts but all that mostly
Lucian had a pair of gorgeous, hazel orbs that seemed to lighten up the room. He had completely taken his father's features, he had much hair despite been a new born and he also took his father's kind of hair. Curly black raven hair, his beautiful pair of hazel orbs, the lovely dimples when he opens his mouth to yawn, his cute nose and his small tiny lips, the Luna and the Alpha made a complete gorgeous baby." You owe me, Ped!" Lord Duncan yelled victoriously as he laughed while the Ice stone Alpha only grunted as he gently took his grandson.Everyone took time admiring the new born prince before the doctors had came and told them to give the Luna a little time to rest so everyone had left for the main time leaving only the Alpha and his little family.Leilani smiled as she carefully carried her baby from his sister's little laps where he laid without making any noise except staring all around and punching the air with his tiny fists. Crystal hadn't wanted him out of her sight at al
It hadn't been a long time since the prince and future Alpha of the Silvermoon pack was born but the joyful news had gone round like wildfire. The security had tripled because of the safety of the newborn as various people were coming into the pack and tower to pay their obeisance to the newborn and most of them were the people from the Ice stone pack and the people from the several borders of the Silvermoon pack.Alpha Pedro and Lord Duncan were all smiles at the joyful news and most especially was Alpha Kaden. Despite the many complications Leilani had faced at the earliest semester of her pregnancy, she had successfully delivered of their baby. " Thanks the goddess!" Pedro heaved. " My girl is the best, I didn't do any mistake taking her as my best child. I've always secretly wished for a male son which I didn't get but now, I was blessed with a grandchild instead." " It's obvious you do." Lord Duncan laughed. His mate, Lady Sally had also delivered a few months back and their
