Wayne and Alexa stood looking at each other. They had gone through alot together and they had been fated together but a stronger fate or one who was more fated to her was pulling them apart.'Alexa, I know what is expected of me but I can't seem to be able to do it', he said. 'I have considered you my better half from the first day I met you in that deserted building with those lovely pups. I can still see the way way you all were that day, tired and helpless but still looking cute, those babies of yours. My heart went out to them. And when I came to carry them into my car, both of them smiled at me and each circled her time hands round my forefinger and captured my heart forever', he confessed and Alexa shut her eyes, tears flowing down.'When you came to and stared at me with your lovely eyes, I knew I had made the right decision to keep you with me and promise sed myself I'd guard you and your pups with my life. I must have fallen in love with you instantly because ever since then
Hector could not stop thinking about Henry and the discussion he had had with Alexa about him.'He is my elder brother and it is his right to have the throne!' he thought. He wanted to assure him that though he had been given the mantle of leadership, he would relinquish it to him.He went to his room yo speak to him but was told by the maid cleaning his room yo that he had gone downstairs.Hector descended the stairs and found his brother coming from the direction of the dungeon.'Henry, where have you been?' he asked, wondering what he would want in the dungeon.'What?' he exclaimed. 'I no longer have freedom to move around my own house?' he asked.'That's not what I mean', Hector said, hastily. 'I didn't know you liked going to the dungeon!''I was so curious about Alexa's younger sister and wanted to see what a heartless, scheming bitch like her looked like!' Henry explained.'Oh, she is that and more but you could have just asked and I would have brought her to you!' Hector said
'Dad, I have come to discuss something very important with you', Hector started. 'It is something that have given me great concern and which Alexa herself called my attention to. I have also given it a lot of thought', he said.'What is this thing that a Lyncan king like you is finding so difficult to say?' his father inquired.'It is about Henry!' he answered.'What about him?' his father asked, suddenly anxious. 'What did he do?''Oh, Dad, you are really acting weird today. He did not do anything but I feel that we are the people who are doing him an injustice!' Hector said.'How so?' Spark asked.'He is the elder son and the rightful heir to the throne!' Hector started. 'It is understandable that you allowed me to be crowned the Lyncan king when Henry was sickly and then presumed dead', he continued, 'but now that he is back, shouldn't we revisit the issue? Give him his right?''Son, there is no need for this!' his father said, heaving a sigh of relief that it was not what he had a
By the time Hector came back from seeing his father, Henry was already in the living room where he had left him previously, pretending to be absorbed in a newspaper.'Back so soon?' Henry said, clearly astonished. 'That was very fast!'Hector shrugged and made to go to his study but Henry's voice stopped him. 'So what did father say?' he asked.'Father is working out something!' Hector said. 'That's what he assured me. He will take care of everything!'I bet! Henry thought with discontent. 'That's okay', he said, instead. 'But one more thing before you go, Lyncan king'.Hector was really tired after his talk with his father and just wanted to go into his study and rest his head or lose himself in his thoughts but the tone of Henry's voice caught him his attention. Did Henry sound bitter just now, when he addressed him by his title? He looked at Henry but he was all straight face and innocence. I must have imagined it, he thought.'What is that Henry?' he asked, rubbing his hands over
'Mother, you have to tell me the truth and tell it to me now!' Henry said as he stormed into his mother's room.'Henry, what is the problem?' Celestine asked, scared at the mood she saw him. She had just come from playing with her grandchildren and was in a very happy mood and had planned on a having a little rest before her son stormed into her room.'Who is my father!' he bellowed.'Wha..what?' she asked, taking by surprised. She had not expected him to ask that question. She had hidden it from both her children but it seemed that someone had not upheld his own part of the agreement. 'What do you mean, who is your father?' Celestine asked stalling for time. 'Did anyone say anything?'Henry was panting but kept his anger on a leash. 'I am back, alive and healthy, yet Lyncan Spark Harrison, has not deemed it necessary to make me the Lyncan king', he said throw gritted teeth. 'At the press conference today, I expected him to acknowledge me by stating that his heir was back but he made
From speaking to his mother, Henry felt there was no use lingering. He had to put his plan into action at once. So,he went to Spark's room to confront him. He hoped hd had not gone back to his own mansion like he had planned. His grand children had kept him in Hector's manor longer than he had planned.Why did Hector have to have it all? he mused. I shall take everything he loves and has from him because he took my life from me!' he thought. If he had not been born, Spark would have made me his heir whether we are blood related' or not! I might also have been the one in that room that night with Alexa and the pups would definitely have been mine! He stole my life, and I am just returning the favour.Thankfully, Spark was in his room. He looked up from the newspaper he had been reading. Hd was proud of Hector. This pact he had made with the species had endeared him to many and he was becoming very popular not just in the entire werewolf kingdom but in the other clans as well.'Oh, it's
Celestine thought of what Henry had said and had a really bad feeling about it. She wanted to warn Hector, but he seemed not to be anywhere in sight. She could not believe that she was the one who was feeling this way about her own son, Henry. But she could not help but suspect that he might do something rash.She decided to go and speak to Spark. She had tried to keep away from him since she got back, occupying her time with her grand children and Mildred whenever she was around. She liked going to their coven for witches meetings, like she did today. Everyone seem to be away. Then it occured to her that such times as this was when had things occur. But Henry would definitely not deliberately harm his brother, would he? All of a sudden, she felt a pain in her heart. She knew instantly that her mate and love, Spark was in pain. She had had this feeling but had pushed it to the background thinking it was his remorse at what he had done to her that was transmitting itself to her but th
As Henry came out of Spark's room after stabbing him with the silver, he quickly went into his room to wash the knife and his hands, which were shaking. He could not believe that he just killed the man he had known as father all this years. Then the irony of the situation dawned on him. My father wanted to kill me and my mum but we were rescued, probably do I could give him a taste of his own medicine. When I killed him, no one was there to come to his rescue. And it was so amusing that he started laughing. 'Ha, ha,ha,ha'. The sound felt good in his ears and hd laughed harder. 'Ha, ha,he,heeee!'Then he briskly went out of his room, out the door into the garden, walking as far from the house as possible.He heard his mother howl for a doctor but remained where he was. 'Does it mean that old son of a gun was not dead, yet? He must really be very strong. 'I am going to be stronger than he and his son, Hector put together. That is where Alexa comes in. Her powers are mine as well as her
