Heyyyyy, the new girl. Come on, don't just stand there. You must be starving" the head chef said. I knew her. She was never really nice to me, but she was not mean to me either. She mostly tried to avoid every contact with me and that was okay for me. It was way better than having one more person who was interested in beating you to stupor. I willed my legs to move, surprised at the kindness that coated her every word. " Scoot over Thomas, give the girl some space to sit. She seems to have been through a lot recently" she said. " Seems she is the shy type. Let me tell you something sugar. Here, there is no shy type. We all work together to achieve and get through every day. So if you think keeping quiet is going to help you out, you are flat out wrong. I would advise you to actually try to introduce yourself." Henry said. " Hi, my name is Aurora" not telling them my my real name. Amelia returned to the pack as Aurora after was scorned, revered and bullied by her pack members for reasons best known to them. Discovering the Alpha was her mate on her eighteenth birthday, her woes only became worse and not better. Deciding she's had enough, she took off from the pack, in search of the truth, She decided to equip herself and carefully plan her way to reclaim what is hers, this time determined not to be trampled upon and take back all that has been taken away from her in multiple folds.
View MoreI watched the Kyrexi fall, who never even stood a chance against the masses and ferocity of the werewolves with all their magical and technological power. I had watched the defeat and devastation of the Kyrexi-entire civilization in ruins.Arachne's voice cut through my visions, her eyes aglow with excitement. "You see, Derek," she said, "you are the last of the Kyrexi, the son of the ancient ones. And you have a destiny to fulfill."Confusion and agitation reeled inside of me. A Kyrexi? Me? I had lived my entire life as a werewolf, and now suddenly I was something completely different?Arachne's smile broadened. "The ancient ones were all-powerful, magical beings," she said. "They were known to be the race of beings that had with them the powers of controlling elements and wielding magic. They were the rulers of this land and the werewolves their servants."I listened with horror as Arachne kept telling me, "But soon, time after time, the werewolves took their being uncomfortable wit
I shook my head, clearing the cobwebs. I must have been hallucinating. I was just stressed out because of that encounter with Bolton and Arachne, that's all.I took a deep breath, attempting to calm myself down. I needed to focus on the task at hand: finding out what Arachne wanted.I walked out of my room, determined to put the strange encounter behind me. But as I walked down the hallway, I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off.I decided to distract myself by actually going for a run. Perhaps the fresh air would clear my head.My senses went alive running through the forest: the wind in my hair, the sun on my face, the birds chirping among the leaves.But even as I ran, the feeling that I was being watched refused to be shaken. I turned over my shoulder, but no one was there.I quickened my pace, my heart racing in my chest, then heard a rustling in the bushes ahead of me.I slowed my pace as my senses went into overdrive. Then I saw her. Arachne. Standing right in
I kept all my thoughts in my head as a compensation to myself for my pains. "No specific reason but we've sent sources out to find out why."Then he got up "I didn't give that order. Do you want them to see us as weak ? If they actually cease supplying us with food, we plan an attack and force them to submission."How stupid could this guy be? What was starting a war against many packs going to do to us.We were strong and no one could beat us but for how long could we force them into submission?I wasn't sure how long I could act like a respectful Beta around him so I nodded after saying "When the sources return, I'd tell them about your decision Alpha."The word Alpha came out more as a sarcastic comment and I think he noticed cause he glared at me as I walked out. I could feel his eyes piercing the back of my head.As I left the room, I prayed to the moon goddess to return Dorian to us. It was going to be hell without him. All of us knew. I walked down to my room, I saw a maid cl
Derek's POVI woke up due to some strange noises. Trying to reach my pillow to block my ears, I realized there was none on my bed. Besides, what was wrong with my bed, it seemed to be cold and hard. If I remember correctly, my bed was large and soft. That's when it occured to me that I might have rolled off the bed.As I got up from the floor, something sticky and wet slid of my arm. What was that? I didn't really focus on it because my head was aching. I groaned, shaking my head from side to side trying to clear my head. I reached for my bedside cabinet but I fell flat on my face. Did I miscalculate? I don't remember telling anyone to move my furniture. I got angry and got up, my foot coming in contact with the sticky thing. What exactly was this?! I murmured in frustration.I opened my eyes slightly before adjusting them to the brightness of the room. It looked like it was noon already. It took me a moment to realize I wasn't in my room. Where was I? Shit! I had slept off in the
Amelia's Point of ViewI stood frozen, my hand still tingling from the Alpha's touch. His eyes seemed to bore into my soul, as if searching for something."What's going on?" I asked, trying to sound calm despite my racing heart. My wolf was at alert hinting me that something is about to happen. I struggled to keep her out of the way.The Alpha's expression softened, and he released a low growl. "I...I don't know," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "But I think I've found something."Found what? I wondered, but before I could ask, he continued."Come with me, Amelia. I need to show you something."He grasped my hand again, this time more gently. I felt a spark of electricity run through me, and my wolf stirred, intrigued.As we walked, the garden's beauty faded into the background. I sensed the Alpha's tension, his emotions swirling like a storm.We arrived at a secluded section of the garden, hidden behind a waterfall. The Alpha released my hand and approached a large sto
Amelia's Point of View I laid on my bed with a series of thoughts running through my head, it was a narrow escape the last time and I need not leave space for lapses next time as I might not be as lucky.I was lucky to get out of that one unscathed, I figured I needed to lay low for a while if I did not want to be discovered before I accomplished anything.There was James, I thought of him, I was not bothered because he looked cool and understanding but I didn't know the extent of what he knew or saw and I was curious.So I went in search of him, as I walked down the hallways.I looked around the hall and memories of the good and bad times I have had in the past came flooding my memory.I was lost in thought and only came to when I accidentally bumped into a figure, Alas! It was the Alpha.I was quick to apologize as I feigned fear“I am sorry Alpha, I did not see you there”“It's fine Amelia, where are you headed? He enquired paying attention to me closely “Erm, Sir, I just want to
The Captain left the scene with the Beta hot on his trail pleading for leniency.I turned to take my leave and saw James watching me closely."I am sorry for putting you in this mess " I finally let my words out at james, who was completely distressed after the decision had been made.The captain, beta and the onlookers had all left and it was merely the both of us.He didn't speak for a while, then he walked up to me and whispered into my ears“I saw all that transpired between you and the beta”I was taken aback as i inhaled sharply He continued saying,“But I know better than to have his back. He has been a menace for too long but as for you, You have some explanations to give and I have got my eyes on you”.I stammered unsure of the right words to respond with, I have been pushed to a wall with nowhere to turn to."Just leave!" He said after a thought and turned his back to leave.“ I promise to make it up to you” I said softly to his back“For?” He responded “For not telling on
Amelia's Point of ViewI woke up with a start, feeling confused. I knew it was a dream but it felt so real like I was still in the garden and not in the room with other maids.The strange woman as usual has just added to my confusion as it took minutes for me to recall all she has just said.If only she had just stayed a bit longer, said more or given me the chance to ask questions, maybe i wouldn't be in a dilemma like i am now.I took a peek at the wall clock and saw I still had few hours before the morning call.I attempted to sleep hoping the moon goddess will bestow mercy upon me by giving me a chance to see the woman again and maybe beg her to give me a chance to interrogate her this time around.I hardly closed my eyes when I heard the familiar sound that signifies the awakening of the pack maids. So soon? I thought and stood up to the grumbles of the other maids.I had a lot of thinking to do, so I kept to myself and went about the daily task with all seriousness and concisene
Amelia's Point of View The door opened again, and this time, thankfully, it was not any royal entitled wolf.I felt very careful because I knew I did not have it in me to deal with any of this packs underlings.It was the girls, returning from work with the Luna. I was surprised. Although I had no way of telling the time, I suspected it was way too early for their shifts to end, knowing the kind of rigorous schedule they kept." What's going on? Can someone please explain things to me?" I asked, my voice literally pleading at this point.It felt like every one knew what was going on in my life and I was the only one left in the dark." Did I just see the alpha exit our room? A maid asked in disbelief , "Girl you did not tell me you were secretly a thing with the alpha. She rambled on with what I couldn't understand, maybe admiration or jealousy."I mean, I for one don't know how you did it because you have only been here for like two days? But honestly, the relationship is messed up.
Amelia's Point of ViewThe dress was just a boring white gown, more shapeless than anything I had ever worn.Elena was not kidding around when she said Gina hated her maids outshining her.As we walked into the dining room where they all sat now, I could make out some familiar faces.Faces of people that bullied and treated me bad. I felt my chest beating with fear and hard as I walked into the gigantic room.The air was choking with the smell of meat and wine, the two best friends of every werewolf.It was never a dinner without meat and wine. Especially in this pack. They all sat round the table, chatting and eating as they talked in pairs. Gina was surrounded by about six females, all kissing up to her feet as they helped her to cut her meat and pour her wine.The alpha sat at the far end of the table, his mind probably anywhere else but the dining room.As we entered the room, all eyes turned to us briefly. The eyes were searching, looking to see who I was, if I was weak, so they ...
