Asher"I'm sorry," I muttered with a sad look on my face. She moved backward with an angry look on her face. I gulped down into nothing as she glared at me darkly. Her expression and demeanor changed quickly. She didn't stare at me with those same loving and caring eyes, her expression was replaced with darkness and hatred. Her expression was hard to read. I couldn't read what was going on in her mind. This was what I was trying to avoid. How did she find out that I was the murderer of her parents? Who told her? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. That wasn't my problem. I needed to let her know that I didn't mean to hide the truth from her like she thought I did. But what would I do? It seemed she wasn't ready to listen to me. She looked cold and fierce, unwilling to listen to me. Why should she listen to me? I killed her parents. "I'm sorry, please forgive me. I didn't mean to kill them but I was…" I took a deep breath and glanced at her, unaware of what to say.
AsherWhat! A soft gasp escaped my lips, and I felt sweat begin forming on my forehead. My eyes turned red as I turned to Derek with my heart burning with rage and anger."What did you do to her? How did she manage to leave the pack?" I asked with a weak and faint tone, and he laughed. The southeast was a very dangerous place which was crowded with outcasts, rogues, and deadly creatures. They kill anyone who trespasses the boundary to their land. A lot of Alphas have tried severally to take over the land but they couldn't. How could she go to such a dangerous place? Is that how desperate she was to leave me? I felt bad and heartbroken as these thoughts crossed my mind. "I didn't do anything to her. I was only helping her. She asked me to help her get out of your pack, and I did. How is it my fault?" He asked and chuckled darkly. I kicked him, and he fell on his stomach groaning in pain. "Why did you send her there, huh? Don't you know that she's going to die?" I asked and clenched
AsherWhat's wrong with me? I squeezed my face and bit on my lower lips as my stomach ached in pain. I staggered backward and grunted out, unable to bear the excruciating pain which burned my stomach. I crashed hard on the floor with a heavy thud as my legs failed me. I found it hard to feel and move my limbs. Unexpectedly and surprisingly, I becameweak and exhausted with pain burning through every single fiber of my body. I looked up at Derek, who stared at me with a smirk on his face. He knew about what was happening to me. "What's wrong, bro?" He asked and smiled. "Do you feel like you can't muster your internal energy and you can't even connect with your wolf as well?" He asked and laughed wickedly, and I stared at him with a surprised look. How did he manage to know about it? Truly, I found it hard to move my limbs. I couldn't connect to my wolf, Adolph, as well. I felt weak and powerless. "What did you do to me?" I asked in a weak tone and spat out a mouthful of blood. "
Alessia"How do I get out of here without being caught?" I asked in a cold tone as I turned to Derek, who was staring at me with a naughty smile on his face. "Why are you impatient?" He asked, and I sighed trying to control my anger. "Answer my question..""You don't need to be scared. I'm the new Alpha of the pack so no one can go against me," he said, and I scoffed. "You're yet to answer my question," I persisted, and he turned to me with a surprised look on his face. "And that's because I don't want you to go. I would provide you with whatever you want," he said but my stance remained. "I thought I told you that I can't stay in this pack. Do you want to go back on your words?""You said I'll be free once I get rid of my mate which I did so why are you hesitant to let me leave?" I asked, and he turned to me with a cute smile on his face. "That's because I'm in love with you. Nonetheless, I won't stop you from leaving if that's what you want.""And you didn't kill Asher because
Alessia"Are you Asher's mate?" One of them asked, and I nodded my head subconsciously. Their gaze tightened as they turned to me with an angry look on their faces. They stared at me as though they wanted to devour me. It seemed Asher had a blood feud with them. I was not surprised because someone as powerful and ruthless as him must have had a lot of enemies who wished to kill him.What do I do? How would I survive? When would this suffering end? I asked myself with a frustrated look on my face. I whined and bit on my lower lips as a whip landed on my shoulder, opening the wound that was healing. I tried as much as possible not to show my weakness, not to cry. I knew if the whipping continued, I wouldn't be able to hold it for long because my back was aching in pain. I believed that I wasn't going to die even though I was at the point of death. "She's our enemy mate.""Let's kill her. She doesn't deserve to live anyway.""Let's tear her body into shreds and send them to Asher as
Alessia"That's all for today. We're going to embark on the journey to invade and attack the Grey Moon pack tomorrow," Lady Kathy said coldly, and they all nodded their heads in agreement. "You can return to your various tents to have a good rest. We need to be strong for tomorrow's battle," she said authoritatively, and they all dispersed to their tent without hesitation, leaving both of us behind. "Are you sure you're ready for tomorrow's battle?" She asked in a low tone as she turned to me, and I nodded my head in agreement. "Yes, I have always been ready for the battle," I said in a determined tone. I have been waiting for a day like that so why would I cower away like a coward? That was the last thing that I would do. I couldn't wait to reclaim my pack from Xavier. I was sure that we were going to be successful in succumbing to the Grey Moon pack even though we were outnumbered. I strongly believed that everything was going to be fine. "Okay. I'll only wish us success since
AlessiaI opened my eyes slowly as the sun cast its rays into the tent to my eyes. I rubbed my hand on my eyes and yawned out, stretching my weak arms. I stood up from the mattress with a cold look on my face. I looked up as I felt a presence in front of my tent. "Good day, General Alessia," I heard a masculine voice from outside, and a small smile formed on my face. General Alessia! I couldn't help the butterflies that roamed in my stomach when the rogues addressed me as their General. After saving them from a few ambushes, they were appreciative and started to address me as their General. Though I wasn't there for any title, I had to relate with them very well so I would gain their trust and reclaim my pack from Asher. "What is it?" I asked despite not seeing the face of the rogue who was delivering a message to me. "Lady Kathy has called for a general meeting and you've to be there for today's ambush," he said, and I nodded my head. "That's fine. I'll be there in a jiffy," I
AlessiaA throbbing pain jolted me from my slumber, and I bit my lower lips to resist it. I looked up as I heard some voices around me. I was surprised to see different maids held captive like me in a prison chariot which was covered with clothes to prevent us from looking outside the prison. What were they doing there? Where were they taking us to? I felt another level of anger surged through my veins when I remembered how Lady Kathy betrayed me despite the love and care that I showed to her. Maybe I wasn't destined to make friends without getting betrayed at the end in one way or the other. I didn't expect her to be ungrateful. Not only did I sacrifice my life to save them but I also had the responsibility to look after them when they were recuperating. I couldn't blame the rogues because they apologized to me for betraying me and it was because they were forced by Lady Kathy. The gossip of the maids who were in the prison chariot with me answered my question. "I heard Alpha
