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

    "You need to rethink Hrolf," Gasper advised him while they were walking down the hallway leading to the dressing room where his robe was kept. Hrolf stopped in his step and turned to look at Gasper. "You should know that you are in my pack and I get to rule the way I want," He answered Gasper. " But still, you said that Ashina might be friends with the spy, wouldn't you think about her feelings?" Gasper asked Hrolf turned around, and pulled Gasper by the collar of his shirt, gazing blankly into his eyes. "I do not care about anyone's feelings, people should know what awaits them when they step on my toes," he said to Gasper. " You have always been known as a good leader, do not spoil the reputation that you have built all this while,'' he said to Hrolf. Hrolf released his tight grip on the collar and walked away. He didn't have time for all of these. He needed to prepare for the execution of Orwella. Gasper trailed behind Hrolf wanting to change his mind. He needed to do somet

    Gasper ran as fast as he could with Ashina in his arms in the passageway. "Where is her room?'' he questioned one of the maids who was walking by. "Come with me," she responded.Gasper walked as fast as he could with Ashina in his arms. When the door creaked open he rushed in with Ashina and placed her gently on the bed. "You are going to be alright, yes you will," He kept on muttering, reassuring himself and reassuring her even when he knew she wouldn't be able to hear him. He ran a hand through his hand frustrated, he had warned Hrolf but instead of Hrolf listening to him, he had done the one he pleased. He bent down and placed a finger on Ashina's neck. He exhaled when he found out she was still breathing soundly. It must have been traumatizing for her, watching her friend's head roll to the ground. Gasper turned his head to the door when he heard it creaking. Hrolf walked in followed by a woman who was fully clothed in white. "Examine her," Hrolf ordered. Gasper gritted his

    "Gael, where are you going?" Hrolf questioned. He got up from the marble tiles he had been kneeling on and walked toward the door.Gael turned to face him with teary eyes. Hrolf felt his heart stop when he saw his son's eyes. "Why are you crying?" He asked. His voice was low and filled with emotions Gael sniffed while rubbing his hands on his snort. "You didn't answer me, dad, don't you like me anymore? Is that why you don't want to?" He asked. " Noo, noo, you know I love you too much to deny you of anything all you have to do is say it and I will get it for you," Hrolf uttered. " Then why aren't you answering my questions about my mother? Did you lock her up again?" He asked. Hrolf palmed his forehead. Raising a toddler wasn't easy. He had been doing a great job all this while and it seemed like all of that bad changed since Ashina came into Gael's life. Gael had not only liked her, but he had also taken her as his mother. "Your mother is fine. She will be here soon," he answe

    Hrolf's grip tightened on the door when he saw how tight Gasper hugged Ashina to himself. There was hardly a gap between them and he could see her Jewel pressing against Gasper's chest. "What are you doing?" He questioned with an angry tone. Ashina was enraged when she saw who it was, she was about to lash out at him when she saw his little cutie."Mother, why are you crying?" Gael asked innocently. He pulled off his hand which was wrapped tightly against Hrolf's wrist and walked swiftly toward Ashina. He stared at Gasper who had been hugging Ashina tightly and glared at him. "Why did you hurt my mother?" He questioned angrily. "Gael," Ashina called out his name softly."Mother, he hurt you didn't he?" Gael questioned with an infuriated look on his face. Ashina shook her head at him with a smile on her face. She stared at Hrolf whose eyes had never left hers and bit into her lips. "Come here Gael," Gael walked toward her with a pout on his lips. He sat on the bed, giving Gaspe

    Ashina ran a hand through her hair as she stared at Gasper who was making his way to the door. She had thought that he would be keeping her company but instead, he had confessed his feelings to her and waved her goodnight. "Coward," she spat out harshly hoping he would hear what she had just said. Gasper halted in his steps and turned around walking toward Ashina with a stern look on his face. "Do you want to try repeating what you have just said and see what I will do?" He asked, his face arched closer to hers Ashina gulped when she felt his hot glares at her. She felt naked under his gaze and tried averting her gaze but she couldn't. Gasper's hands held her face. "I didn't say anything wrong, I barely know you, what do you want from me because I know you don't love me," Ashina said to him. She wasn't a fool not to see beyond the facade he had on. She could see that he wanted something else and she wondered what it was. Gasper who had been seen inhaled sharply before getting o

    Ashina walked down the hallway leading toward Hrolf's quarter. She averted her gaze to the ground as the heavy weight of the documents she was carrying made her stumble to the ground causing the parchment of paper to scatter on the ground. "Ugggh," Ashina grunted as she bent down to pick up the parchment which had fallen on the ground. She never knew it was this hard-working for the pack, being appointed by Hrolf as his assistant had its perks and she enjoyed it to a certain level although she missed spending time with Gael more. "You shouldn't take all of this alone when I am here for you," Gasper said with a smile on his face. " Where have you been?" She asked him with a smile on her face. "Searching for the angel in my life," Gasper answered. Ashina burst into laughter smiling at Gasper. She couldn't stop smiling no matter how hard she tried not to. Gasper has a way of making her smile. "Sooo, have you seen her yet?" "Yes, I have," Gasper answered. He crouched down to

    Ashina stared at Hrolf with tears gliding down her eyes. Hrolf felt his heart prick him when he watched the tears slide down her eyes. "I am sorry" he apologized, losing his grip on her neck. Ashina placed a hand around her neck, shivering and gasping for breath. "I hate you, I do, you keep bullying and making me unhappy, why are you hurting me? Why do you hate me? You dislike everything about me don't you?" " I.. I... I don't… get out," " What? " Ashina asked, looking surprised, her hands still rubbing her neck. "You can't just send me away," she pointed that out to him.Hrolf ran his hands through his hair, Ashina was driving him crazy with all of her movement. Her hands on her neck looked appealing to him and he wondered if he was alright. "You should take a rest today, come back tomorrow and continue arranging all of these," he pointed at the parchments on the table. "You will be attending the pack meeting with me later on tomorrow so I will need you to get all of this wor

    "You look astonishing," Gasper whispered to Ashina. Ashina had changed into a green flowery gown with a cloak and had paired them with shoes he had gifted her. She hoped that he would see it and compliment how nice they look on her feet also. "Thank you," Ashina said shyly, she had a smile on her face and raised her hand to tuck back the hair that fell in front of her face but Gasper beat her to it. "You shouldn't be doing that when a gentleman like me is here for you," He bent down and whispered into her ear causing goosebumps to form on her skin. "Thenn, I will make sure I leave all of this to you next time when we are together," Ashina blurted out. She placed a hand on her mouth when she thought of what she had just said."Ahaha, you know you are cute, don't you? I think that is one thing about you that caught my fantasy,'' Gasper said softly to her. Ashina bit into her lips while thinking of what to answer. She was at a loss for something to say and she knew she had to be car

    "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.
