Hrolf walked out of the white wolf's estate deep in thought. He had been told not to touch her after she collapsed and he had watched her attendant carry her into the inner chamber.

"Alpha," Erik called out to him when he walked close. It was the dawn of another day and his eyelids were heavy. He hadn't shut his eyes throughout the night before and he needed to rest.

"Erik, you are here, I thought you would have been gone already,'' Hrolf said. All that the white wolf had said kept running through his mind and he inhaled sharply.

"You said I should wait for you Alpha," Erik answered. Hrolf nodded at him. He had told Erik to wait for him till he was back and he did.

"What did the white wolf say?" Erik asked as they walked out of the white wolf estate. Hrolf inhaled sharply while contemplating what to answer. The white wolf had told him never to let go of Ashina and hearing that her wolf when merged with his would birth an ultimate wolf, he was going to risk it all. He was ready to p

    "Ugggggh," she screamed out in anger as she swept her hands on her dressing table, throwing down everything that was on top of it.Dhe gnashed her teeth in anger as she thought of all that had happened. She had prepared everything, she had made all preparations but instead, that useless girl had spoilt her plan. Why now? Why this time when he was finally looking at her? She wondered.She inhaled sharply as she walked out of her room. She had made plans. Plans that needed to be executed. Plans that needed her time. She looked around her surroundings before stepping on the passageway. She needed to make sure she wasn't tailed before stepping out of the pack. "Hey," someone jumped out of the passageway and her heart almost jumped out of her body. She placed a hand on her chest to calm down her racing heart."You scared me," she muttered, punching the person who had jumped out suddenly in the chest. "Ouch," the person feign hurt even when he knew he wasn't in pain. He placed a hand on h

    "Alpha," Ashina muttered in shock.Her gaze ran from him to Gael before her chest and she gasped out in shock. "What is happening here?" She blurted out.She needed to know what was happening. Hrolf stood upright and walked back to the bed holding Gael close to himself. "Why were you still asleep by this time? Can't you see how late it is?" Hrolf asked.Ashina took a look at the wall clock and stared at Hrolf in shock. She never knew she had slept that far. "Alpha Hrolf, I am sorry, I was tired and…." "You keep making excuses, petty excuses when it isn't needed," Hrolf said to her. He was glad that she had forgotten about what had happened earlier on."I will be going to bed, take good care of Gael, I do not want to hear any story from you," Hrolf said. Ashina nodded her head at him. Hrolf kissed Gael on the forehead before walking away. He turned to look at Ashina who was staring at him innocently. Her huge orbs stared at him piercing through him and he remembered what the white

    Hrolf stared at the dagger while scrutinizing the symbol which was on it. It had the crest of the Sussex pack on it and he clinched on the handle of the dagger. He was hurt. He was. What had prompted all of this? "You were ordered to kill me?" Hrolf growled at the girl who kept shaking her head. " I wasn't ordered to kill you, I would never do that, I wouldn't, please listen to what I have to say," she pleaded. Hrolf stared at her with disappointment. "You lie still," he said to her with a smirk on his lips. He was enraged but he was trying to keep his cool. He couldn't afford to let it slide, he had been lenient enough and now everyone must pay. Anyone who made him angry would pay. The girl averted her gaze to the ground with tears streaming down her eyes."How did this happen?" She wondered. She had mapped out the plan properly.Hrolf wasn't supposed to be here. She had prepared to flee through the window if she heard him approaching but she couldn't. She hadn't heard him approa

  • The Loathed Luna    Perfect image

    Ashina walked as fast as she could down the hallway leading to the dungeon. She couldn't forget how pitiful Orwella looked while she was being taken away. She needed to know what had prompted her to be here. She half ran and half walked in the hallway hoping she could at least catch up with them. "You should be careful when running, young lady," a young man cautioned her. She frowned slightly as he gripped her arm tightly. "I am Gasper," he introduced himself.Ashina muttered a word of insult at the man who had introduced himself as Gasper inwardly. She had somewhere to be and he was interrupting her. She inhaled and exhaled deeply before turning to stare at the man who had introduced himself as Gasper. Her heart missed a beat as she stared into those gray eyes of his. "Ashina," she introduced herself with her mouth still agape. "Ashina, Ashina, why does your name seem familiar?" Gasper asked. He shook his head while trying to recall where he had heard the name from. "I am Gael's

  • The Loathed Luna    Ruthless judgement

    Ashina walked out of the dungeon back into the castle. She stood in front of Cassie's room contemplating if she should go with Gael. She pulled the door slightly and heaved a sigh of relief to see Gael playing cheerfully with Cassie. He was lying on her lap while she played with his hair. "You should be careful at all times, do not play with objects like those I told you about," Cassie said to Gael. She could feel Ashina's presence but she didn't want to say a word about it to Gael. She had been enjoying the time together with Gael and she wished that this could happen more often. Ashina inhaled sharply before closing the door quietly. She walked toward Hrolf's quarter deep in thought. She was thinking of the best way possible to make him change his mind and she still couldn't think of anything no matter how hard it was. She was going to plead with Hrolf till he agreed to set Orwella free. She wondered how cruel he could be. How could he pass judgment without proper interrogations

  • The Loathed Luna    Warning

    Ashina couldn't believe what she had just heard. Hrolf wouldn't do this. She shook her head in denial. He wouldn't. "Leave my presence," Hrolf interrupted her train of thought. "Noo, I can't," Ashina screamed out. "Alpha Hrolf, please spare her life," she pleaded. Ashina's throat was parched but she couldn't give up now. Not at this moment. She couldn't let this happen to Orwella. She wouldn't let Hrolf carry out his punishment on her. Orwella had been a sister to her. They have been through thick and thin togetherness when she was still in the pack together and she couldn't let Hrolf kill her. Ashina crawled on the marble tile toward Hrolf. She placed her hands on his ankle with tears streaming down her eyes. "Please, I am begging you, let her go, let her go for my sake," She pleaded with tears streaming down her face. Hrolf felt something in his heart stir when he stared into her eyes but he couldn't let her go. Orwella had lied to him. Orwella had been here with the wo

    Ashina stumbled on her way back to Cassie's room. She didn't want Gael to see her this heartbroken. It was annoying that he was such a sweet boy and his father was a jerk. Tears streamed down her flawless face when she thought about how much she had pleaded for Hrolf to forgive Orwella but still, he refused. She had thought he would oblige her request if she showed him her sincerity but that was far from being the truth. Hrolf had not only refused her request, but he had also called her names and shattered her heart into tiny pieces in the process. She exhaled sharply as she thought about the next step to take even when she had been denied. She couldn't give up hope now, not when Orwella's life was at stake. She had to do all she could to make sure her life was saved at all costs. She frowned when she saw the man who had introduced himself as Gasper walking toward her with a smile on his face. She wondered who he was and what was his mission in the palace. Maybe he could talk to H

  • The Loathed Luna    Damsel in distress

    Cassie stood at the door of the meeting room trying to calm down her emotions. She didn't want Hrolf to look at her and notice something was amiss. She couldn't afford to make mistakes now. Not now. She pulled the door open and walked in. She cursed under her breath when everyone's attention went to her. It wasn't like she was late so why was everyone staring at her strangely? "Alpha Hrolf," she greeted with her head bowed to the ground. Hrolf waved his hands at her urging her to take a seat. The matter at hand was a very impressive one and there was no need to waste time delegating on what wasn't important at this point. "Hmmph," he scoffed when he remembered he still had to deal with her for disobeying him. He was sure his orders were clear to her and still, she went against them. "Now that you all are assembled here, I would like to introduce my very good friend here, Gasper," Hrolf had a wide smile on his face. " Although you might not know who he is he is a reputable man a

    "Helena" Ashina screamed out loud with a hand placed on her chest when she tripped on the floor. "Shush" Gael carried her up, patting her gently on the back, Ashina let out a sigh of relief when she saw Gael patting her gently. "Mother, she is fine, you do not have to worry about her" he said to her with a smile on his face.Ashina nodded at him before walking forward with her bulging stomach, a hand around her waist.Hrolf had been so scared when she had given birth to Helena so he had told her that he didn't want any more children and that Gael and Helena were enough but somehow, he had ended up getting her pregnant. She could remember the reaction he had when he found out what he had done and had apologized profusely for making her go through pain again but Ashina had dissuaded him, letting him know that it was fine."Mother," Helena called out to her with misty eyes, while stretching both of her hands out but Gael held her firmly. "You wouldn't want to hurt Mother now, would y

    Hrolf stood with sweaty palms and his heart beating fast when he gazed at himself in the mirror. It looked just like a dream which he didn't want to wake up from.The door was pushed open slightly and Gravon walked in, staring at Hrolf, he placed a hand over his mouth, a smile on his face "You look..." his gaze wandered over Hrolf as he tried to find the right word to say. "You look handsome" he finally managed to say, while walking toward Hrolf. " Thank you" Hrolf patted both of his hands together trying to think properly. This was a lot but knowing that Ashina was the one who he would be walking down the aisle with was worth it.Letting out a sigh from his lips, he turned around, meeting Gravon's gaze. "Is everything ready?" He asked again, making Gravon roll his eyes at him. "All preparations have been made, Alphas from different packs are seated already, you aren't having cold feet, are you?" Gravon asked, wanting to be sure because Hrolf was acting in such an awkward way tha

    The cheering of the crowd as Cassie and Erik was brought in, pierced through Hrolf's chest as he tried to think, faced with a lot of uncertainty and the fact that he had to mete out judgment on them. Clutching the arm of his chair tightly, he turned his head around to see Ashina gazing straight at Erik, with a blank look on her face."Are you okay?" He asked her, her face was pale and recently, she had been under a lot of pressure with merging her pack with his. Smiling back at him Ashina nodded at him, showing him that she was okay.She placed a hand over her mouth, trying as hard as she could not to gag. "Are you sure you are okay?" Hrolf asked again, with concern on his face. He was ready to pass out judgment next time if she wasn't okay. "I am fine" Ashina repeated, her voice firm and strong, she flipped her head to the side where Cassie was glaring at her but she couldn't care less."The people await your judgment" Hrolf let out a sigh as he stood up from the chair that he w

    "You got to be joking" Hrolf said to Gravon who gazed at him. If there was something he loved doing, it was ruffling his emotions and he loved that look on his face that showed that he was tense."She is okay, but.." he pulled Hrolf with him to the side. Taking a look at the old man at intervals. "Do you think handing her over to the old man is the right thing?" He wanted to know. " Gravon" Hrolf placed a hand on his shoulder, " Someone has to put her down, she has to pay for all of the numerous things that she had done and I do not want to be the one who will do that for her,"Gravon nodded agreeing with what he had just said but still," Wouldn't you be affected? We grew up together and besides, she is Gael's mother,"" I have made my decision and I am not going back on my word," Hrolf said firmly, not wanting to repeat himself anymore. Letting out a sigh, Gravon pondered on what was happening. If this was what he thought was best, he was going to go along with it. "Take him al

    Although it had taken a lot of convincing, Ashina knew that she would have gone with Hrolf even if he hadn't done so much, with how much she missed Gael and how she wanted to be by his side, she would have gone with him.With one hand wrapped around her waist, he kissed her gently on the cheek before yanking on the reins of the horse to move. Picking up the chase and running through the thick forest, Xeva, Hrolf's horse drove like lightning through the thick bushes.Ashina had talked to her pack members and the elders, letting them know that she would be back soon, after settling whatever it was that she had to do at the white moon pack. And at almost dusk, Gravon's men, who he had placed at the boundary of both packs, waved earnestly, cheering him happily. Hrolf flashed a smile at them before donning a blank look as Xeva ran toward the pack house and at every pace it took, Ashina's heart beat faster than the last. Knowing that she was coming back here evoked nostalgic feelings in

    Hrolf caressed Ashina's hair gently which was sprawled out, her chest heaved up and down, showing that she was fast asleep.Stroking her hair gently, he let out a sigh of relief, he was sure that they were back to how they were before and he was ready to do right by her. Exhaling sharply, he stood up gently, placing Ashina on the bed before standing upright. He had intended to saunter toward the window when he felt a hand wrapped around his wrist. Turning back, he flashed Ashina a smile."Where are you going?" Ashina asked, trying to sit upright, when she finally did, she ran her gaze at Hrolf who was naked, making her gulp in her spittle. Although they had gone on and on, she still found herself wanting him. Again."I guess I didn't do a nice job there" Hrolf's gaze darkened as he walked back toward the bed, taking in Ashina's appearance as he walked closer. Her hair cascaded down giving her ample coverage over her perfect boobs, licking his lips, he thought of how they had fitte

    Ashina pulled open the door to her room gently before stepping in, running a finger on the chain lying by the side of the bed, she shut her eyes, before flicking them open, it had happened in the blink of an eye. From being recaptured to being chained to her bed and Hrolf barging into the pack to rescue her, finding out he had been in cahoot with Zeeb from the onset and then Zeeb's death. She would have argued blindly with anyone who had said Erik was betraying Hrolf because she knew that he wasn't like that but this has taught her a lesson. To vouch for who she knew very well. She had been betrayed also even when all she had done was being kind and she could understand the turmoil Hrolf was in, he was trying to be strong, losing both Cassie and Erik at the same time but he had no other choice.Standing up she sauntered across the room, toward the window, it was dusk already, and now, she had gotten back her pack. She was the rightful heir of the Sussex pack and now it was in her h

    Erik grunted lowly when he was forced to stand up, with his head pressed against the wall, Ashina had walked away, intending to address her pack. She felt relieved at the fact that the pack had been handed over to her and this time, she was going to do whatever it takes just to make sure that nothing happens to her people. Hrolf stood by the side watching with admiration at how vocal she was with letting everyone know about her intention, she wasn't avoiding any questions that were being thrown at her and he was glad to see her do that. Ashina could feel a heated gaze behind her and she knew who it was, there was just a man who was capable of stripping her naked with just his gaze. Hrolf. And this time, she was going to make sure that he didn't have it the easy way. She was going to make him plead for a long time before accepting his apology even when it didn't look genuine. The cheers of the pack members caused a smile on her face as she glanced at them, knowing that she was thi

    Waves of emotions swept through Hrolf who was contemplating what he had just heard, although he knew that Cassie had done a lot and angered a lot of people still, he was trying to think of a better punishment. "What do you intend to do to you?" He asked although he knew what it was. Ashina glared at him. "He wasn't seriously thinking of saving her now, was he?" She wondered, she hoped that he wasn't going to do that. If he wanted her, he had to show that he wanted her in his life and the first thing was to hand Cassie over. "That isn't yours to find out, Alpha Hrolf, I have heard of your splendid deed and I must tell you that I am mesmerized by your deeds, unlike my son here" he gestured at Zeeb. " Although I wasn't any better than him, days alone in that dungeon taught me a lot of things and when I found out that Ramon was dead" he shut his eyes as though he was honoring his dead son's image before flicking them open.
