"Alpha, Gael has opened his eyes and he is also speaking. He seems to be fine now." Erik said quickly.

Hrolf's face creased in a wide smile when he heard the news about his son. His foul mood disappeared immediately and happiness coursed through him. He was so excited that he forgot about punishing Ashina and walked out of the cell in the direction of his room.

Ashina sagged back against the wall and she felt so relieved. Finally, he was awake! She was elated. The news about Gael made her very happy and she thanked the moon goddess for listening to her prayers.

Hrolf opened the door and stepped into Gael's room. Closing the door after him, he flung his arms open and covered the distance between the both of them in fast strides. He was so happy. Words couldn't describe how happy he was.

He pulled Gael into his arms and inhaled his scent.

"I missed you, Gael." He admitted.

Gael's unconsciousness had made him grumpy, even his guards knew because at the slightest chance he got irritated

    Hrolf gave Gael a long stare. A servant had brought the food into his room and although it was before him, he didn't touch it. He was staring squarely at his father, his lips set in a hard line. "Why are you being like this?" Hrolf sighed, breaking the silence."I won't eat it until Ashina is released." Gael maintained his stance, giving his father an unwavering look."Gael, you have to eat to be strong." Hrolf held his hands, they were so cold.His son had gotten his stubbornness from him no doubt. Gael looked away, refusing to listen to anything his father had to say.He didn't want to succumb no matter what his father said. He missed Ashina and hearing that she was still locked up because of him, because of his carelessness made him feel guilty. "Just do this for me, please Daddy." Gael clutched his tummy when he felt pangs of hunger.Although he was stubborn, that didn't stop him from feeling the pangs of hunger."See you're hungry and yet you're proving stubborn." Hrolf chuckle

    Hrolf walked into the cell with a smile on his face. He darted his eyes to a corner where Ashina rested her head on the wall.He studied her sleeping frame for some minutes watching how her chest heaved as she snored softly. He swallowed when he noticed her cleavage and for some reason, he felt attracted.Hrolf approached her, his eyes remaining fixed on the cleavage. However, that short moment was cut when she flipped her eyes open and sat up immediately.Ashina had felt the atmosphere change and that was why she flipped her eyes open. Seeing Hrolf stand before her, she finally understood why she had felt that way."Get up." Hrolf ordered, his face morphing back into an angry expression."." Hrolf walked towards her and she held her breath."You're going to do as I say and I will release you if you do it." Hrolf said.Ashina's brows furrowed when she heard those words from him. And although her heart fluttered, she couldn't help but feel nervous. This wasn't the first time he would t

    "Why did you ask for me?" Ashina questioned Alpha Hrolf when he remained silent even though they had stepped into his office.It was a wide beautiful office and the rays of sunlight streaming in illuminated it giving it an ethereal glow. The chairs were clean and everything was arranged neatly.He circled his desk. Drumming his index fingers on the table, he stared back into Ashina's eyes."You don't get to ask me questions, Ashina." Hrolf said before reaching to pull out a set of drawers.He searched through the cabinet, sifting through them slowly. A frown creased his face as he turned everything out. Where was it?Ashina watched him rummage through the drawers with a look f confusion. What could he be searching for? She wondered as she darted her eyes around the office taking in its beauty. Hrolf frowned as he searched the second drawer. He was sure he left it in the top drawer but he wanted to search the others for confirmation. He slammed the second back in frustration and reac

    "Beta, we have an urgent situation I would like to report to you." Erik bowed and informed Cassie whose mind was far away.Ashina followed Hrolf's huge frame down the hallway towards his study. She laced her hands together behind her, wondering why he had called her again.Was this the reason he was searching for when he called her the first time? Had he found it? She hoped that whatever it was, he released her as soon as possible so she could go back to meet Gael. She missed him a lot.She let out a soft breath as he led her into the big office. She closed the door after her and whirled around to wait for him.Hrolf circled his desk, taking in her slender figure in one gaze. He pushed the chair back and sat on it watching her rove her eyes around his study.Ashina couldn't stop herself from taking in the beautiful spacious study. His study was ornately furnished with the finest of wood, richly carved in a style.The large windows were open to let the air cool the room and the light f

    "Let's go." Hrolf rushed out of his study with Cassie trailing after him.As he dashed to they ran down the stairs, he wondered why they had a breach again. He rushed to the labyrinth. It was dark but almost immediately a familiar sight greeted them. About ten wolves circled the place. Hrolf gritted his teeth, soaking in their figures."Make sure one of them is caught." Hrolf commanded his guards."Yes." They echoed.Cassie signaled to the guards and they nodded, blocking the Pack's entrance from the intruders.The intruders let out a howl and attacked. Three of them had been captured and they were not happy, which was why they wanted to fight back.Hrolf's eyes glowed as he transformed into a wolf. He ran towards one of them and sunk his sharp fingertips into his neck. It didn't take long until Hrolf finally managed to kill one of the wolves who let out a Yelp before breathing his last.Hrolf looked around at the rest of his guards and nodded in satisfaction. They had already taken

    Ashina couldn't believe that Hrolf would want her to sign the document and subject herself to slavery. Doing that would give him power over her.Satisfied with her cleaning, she scanned the sparkling-clean pantry before she walked out of the room.Ashina paused in her tracks, gripping the banister tight when she heard voices coming from the top floor. She contemplated if eavesdropping on them was a good idea.Her curiosity got the better part of her as she swirled around on the staircase towards Hrolf's study where the noise was coming from. "I can't believe he escaped."Ashina frowned when she heard Hrolf speaking. He sounded so angry and it made her heart thump with unease."Are you sure he was there?" She heard him ask."He was there. I am very sure." Ashina recognized the female voice. It was Cassie's."Then it doesn't make sense! He had no reason to escape! He didn't even know we were coming.""I can't believe we failed." Ashina stumbled back when she heard Hrolf hit the wall i

    "Who could have informed Ramon that I was coming for him?" Hrolf thought as he paced his room.He paused, racking his brain, trying to come up with an answer to the question he had racked his brain over and over again. But he couldn't think of an answer, he tapped his legs on the ground.He suddenly thought of Cassie, she was the one who knew where Ramon stayed, could she have warned him?He sighed and sat on the bed. It was late at night and she would be asleep. It would be better to quiz her as he liked tomorrow. Moreso he was tired. He laid back in bed to sleep.*******"Erik!!" Hrolf barked from his office.Erik knocked the office door lightly, before opening it."Yes Alpha." Erik replied."Call me Cassie." Hrolf ordered."She will be here in a moment." Erik said and swirled around to do his bidding as fast as possible.Erik walked out of the house squinting his eyes. The early morning sun shimmered in the blue sky, illuminating the earth. He strolled towards the end of the Pack w

    Hrolf stared at the guard's body laid over the slab in his morgue. His hands vibrated with anger because although he had run after the figure he saw, he couldn't catch up with it.A myriad of emotions swept through him. Why were strange things happening in his Pack? He was confused."Alpha, everyone is gathered." A guard walked in to inform him."I will be there soon." Hrolf turned to leave the room.He opened the door, and everyone was already there, he greeted them and they did the same, and took a seat. He could see how sad they looked, they just lost another guard. Although they were trying not to show it.It was hard for them. He lost a member of his pack again, he was tired of the frequent deaths.He didn't want another guard or anyone else dying, he had to try hard to keep calm."We need to be careful, we don't know if they'll attack again. To that effect, I will start patrolling outside with you all every night" He added and the guards nodded their heads."Where's Cassie?" He

    "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.
