'You have come to keep me company down here, I see', Erica said.Camellia ignored her. Her mind still blank. How was it that all she had done to ruin Alexa had ended up backfiring and she was the one bearing the brunt of it all, rather that enjoying the divided of the labour she had invested in all this plotting. But she wasn't going to give up. Alexa wasn't going to win!'You were acting so high and mighty as the mother of the heir but now you are in the dungeon with me and I wonder what you did!' Erica continued taunting her.'You always acted haughty. I thought by now you will have got married to the Lyncan king', Camellia said. 'Are you not the Alpha's daughter, why hasn't your father secured your release yet? Have you forgotten how you didn't want me to see Lionel?''I wish he had died of that wolfsbane!' Erica said with so much venom that Camellia who had been trying to think of a way out of her situation and looked up at the bitter Erica. You are not as bitter against them as
The elder Lyncan, Hector's father could not believe what he had just heard. 'The illegitimate daughter of a Beta was actually a tribrid? The powers she must possess. No wonder my son cannot control himself around her. The power in her is strongly pulling him to her and he can't resist her nor control himself where she is concerned.If I can get my hands on such powers...He heard them arguing but kept quiet, patiently waiting for his son to come out of the room. After a while, Hector came out and walked blindly past him into his study. His father shook his head. This son of mine can be a fool sometimes, he thought and followed him into the study.The Lyncan king was pacing on his study, his heart hurting. 'Why did you have to be a tribrid?' he thought in anguish. It was moments such as this that made him realize what a difficult it was to rule. One had to make decisions they were not comfortable with.'I can just leave all this and elope with Alexa and my pups but that would label me
'And my pups', Hector asked me swallowing convulsively. 'What do you suggest? Getting rid of them as well?His father kept looking at him without saying anything.'Oh, no!' Hector said, laughing in disbelief. 'You are not seriously considering allowing my pups, your own grandchildren to be murdered?' he asked.'You have to lead by example. If we start making exceptions now, we surely will throw the kingdom and all the packs under us in disarray!' he said still looking at his don as though expecting some form of rebellion from him.'I cannot believe that you just said that!' Hector said. 'How will you be able to live with yourself knowing that you murdered your own blood?' he howled. 'Was this the way you murdered my mother and elder brother?' he asked, his chest heaving.'Shut up and do not meddle in matters you know nothing about!' his father bellowed, his eyes yellow, claws protruding. Hector's claws were already protruding as well his eyes glowing deep yellow and his stance threat
'Never!' the Lyncan king said. 'I cannot give her to you. It will amount to signing her death warrant'.'That is where you are wrong. I shall just take a little at a time', he answered his son. 'She will not die but might not be as strong as she would have been!''Her powers are what constitutes the totality of her being and personality. Take it, and no matter how cautious you are claiming you'd be, it will only turn her to an empty shell!' Then wondering why he was negotiating howled. 'And I shall not allow that. You might have allowed your father to talk you into murdering your own wife because I know she didn't die a natural death, I shall not allow history to repeat itself!''You are not even married to her yet!' his father protested.'We are as good as married. We have three pups for goodness sake and today was supposed to be a day I announce our engagement and get the kingdom's seer to marry us!' he bellowed, then taking a calming breath, said in a reasonable voice. 'You despise
'I wish to know more about my mother', the Lyncan king said. 'I hope you can tell me about her, now that we both seem to be in an agreeable mood'.His father sighed, thinking that this day was inevitable and that he could not keep putting this day off forever. Hector was no longer a child. He was a man, a Lyncan king, with his own pups. 'What do you remember about her?''I recall her vaguely. I know she was very kind to me and my elder brother, treating us with so much love and affection but suddenly, she started keeping away and I was told she had a contagious disease and was receiving treatment and that my elder brother had it as well', he said with a far away look in his eyes, as he recollected all that happened when he was a little pup. 'You went out with her one day with my elder brother and I was told it was to get them treated and that they were going to come back well and strong again but they never came back. You came back without them and whenever I asked, you gave one excu
Hector made an attempt to stop his heart from racing and asked his wolf to calm down. It was all in the past after all and getting himself sick over it was not going to change what had already happened.'You went out with them to a far away place, disguised so that you are not recognized, I remember that', Hector promoted when his father kept quiet for so long.'Yes', he said, like someone who was roused from sleep, his eyes looking haunted. He was reliving the nightmare that was his assignment to murder the only woman he had ever loved 'I was going to kill them and give them a decent burial but all of a sudden, there was a fog and I couldn't see. I tried to force myself to see where I was, but couldn't but thankfully, it cleared in a matter of seconds but by that time, your mother and brother were no where to be found!' He remembered the sudden fog and how hf tried to hold on to his wife so that they would not miss each other but because of he couldn't see in the mist, his hands succ
'You cannot be serious, Dad!' the Lyncan king said.'Oh, but I am', hd replied. 'I am aware that she committed a grievous crime. It is unforgivable making an attempt on the live of the heir but she would never have done it before f I hadn't put her up to it!' the elder Lyncan confessed.'You asked her to kill your own grandson?' Hector exclaimed in shock.'In a manner of speaking, yes, I did!' he replied. 'If I had not asked her to do all she could to become your Luna, she might not have tried to kill Lionel. If I had no t made her break her engagement to their Beta's son, shd would not have come to you in the first place. Do yes, it is ally doing!' he said, his eyes pleading with his son. 'I know you are now the Lyncan king and have the ultimate power bug I am still your father and it would gladden my heart if you would release her. I have been to see her and she sincerely regrets her actions. She just wants to go home!''How will ot serve as a deterrent to others who may want to att
Amelia was really crying now and Beta Andrew was looking down, shaking his head in regret and revulsion.'You asked her to drug me and try to have her way with me or at least lead me to believe that we had another night together so that she could foist her bastard pup on me!' the Lyncan king continued. 'Ah ha, that reminds me. She is pregnant isn't she?' he asked. Amelia nodded hoping that would touch Hector into forgiving them and releasing her daughter from the dungeon. 'Do you know who the father of the child is? I bet you don't or were you the one who arranged him for your daughter? Wow, such righteous training you gave her, even bringing her male escorts', he smirked in disgust and his father could not help staring at his son. 'Let me do the honours in case you didn't know. The father of her bastard is one of the men who kidnapped her half sister and nearly molested her and making a video of it all with the intention to making it go viral! Hector howled in fury. A part of him rea
