The soldiers had already fled from the park when Clara mentioned them to the Alpha. But Beta Leon, who was alert, caught them and brought them back to the park.“Let the soldiers in charge of the prison be presented before me.” Alpha Gabriel commanded.“They were trying to flee," said Beta Leon as he presented them before the Alpha grabbed their collars.“What are your names?” asked the Alpha.'Ivan, said the first soldier.'Liam, said another soldier.“So,‘Ivan and Liam.’ Do you have any explanation to give to the court for treating the prisoners in the manner that you are accused of?” asked Alpha Gabriel curtly.They just bowed their heads down, unable to say anything as their activities behind the scenes were exposed for the first time in their lives.“Since you have nothing to say at all, I will announce the punishment for traitors like you. I gave you permission every time to use torture methods so that you could extract information from the prisoners. But you took advantage of t
Ella finally reached the mansion of Mrs. Rolex. She led Ella towards the washroom for a hot shower bath. Ella was again fascinated by the modern amenities available in the washroom. There were both a hot tub and a shower available in the washroom.“I have turned on the hot water for the tub as well as the shower. You can use either of them according to your choice," said Mrs. Rolex with a smile.“Alright! aunty. You are simply too good. When you are around, I feel that I am with my mom.” Ella smiled back at Mrs. Rolex, saying this.She was feeling dirty after facing the torture in the prison and being chased by the animals prior to that. She applied body wash and sat in the hot tub for almost half an hour, cleansing herself. She felt relieved of all the body pain that she had been experiencing so far. She came out wrapped in a towel, feeling fresh and rejuvenated.“Have you finished your bath? Come, and I will show you your room. I have arranged the room attached to Lara’s room for y
Beta Leon followed him, and they started playing table tennis. Whereas, the three ladies spent their time in Lara’s room. Ella went closer to Lara and saw her closely for the first time. Her resemblance to Lara made her feel attached to her, and she developed a feeling of empathy for the girl lying unconscious on the bed."I wish I could talk to Lara. She looks exactly like me, and I am sure that even our thoughts might be similar. It would have been great if she was in good health. I just wish that Alpha Gabriel soon finds out the scorpion venom required for her treatment.” Ella expressed her feelings to Mrs. Rolex and Clara.“I miss her too. She is my best friend, and whatever we do, we don’t fail to respect each other’s opinions. This was the first time I did something without consulting her. I came to save you today, but I was missing Lara because, on earlier occasions, I had executed such expeditions along with her. I wish she was treated soon.” Clara said it emotionally.“She wi
Ella was feeling frightened. She didn’t have the courage to unplug her smart phone from the charging cable. She wanted to get out of bed, but then she was so overpowered by the fear that she lay still on the bed, trying not to make any noise. She had a narrow escape from death last night. She could hear the chirping of birds by now. The howling sounds of the wolves were replaced by the silence of the morning. There wasn’t any sound except the chirping of the birds and the occasional barking of the dogs. She had witnessed that day how Mrs. Rolex had re-shifted into her human form at the onset of dawn. She knew within her heart that the same process might be repeated again. But what if they are still in their wolf form? She was thirsty, and there was no water around in her room. Perhaps the full moon affected their daily routine, and Mrs. Rolex had forgotten to ask the maid to place the jug of water on the table.Ella felt weak after the bloodcurdling night and didn’t have much courage
“Should I tell Mrs. Rolex about my fear for the werewolves? Would she understand my feelings? She is a werewolf, and I am a human. Even if I try to explain everything to her, she might fail to understand how I feel on this island, a single human amidst werewolves. What if I try to escape from this island myself? I should walk towards the east and cross the bridge. That is all that is needed to reach a human community. But Alpha Amelia would eat me alive if she happened to see me again, especially in her own territory. If the witch comes across me, she will leave no stone unturned in casting a spell over me. It is too perilous for me to try to cross the island on my own. I have no other option but to wait for Mrs. Rolex or Alpha Gabriel to help me reach my destination. But what if I become their prey once they shift to their wolf form?” Ella kept thinking about the probability of her survival on the island and the chances of her escaping from there, but even after pondering for an hour
“Oh! Try to trust us, please! We are not their spies. We have been banished from our pack by Alpha Gabriel. That is why we have now decided to be members of your pack, Alpha Amelia. The Dark Moon Pack is the only abode for us in our current scenario.” Ivan cried out.“You are trying to take me into a trap. I know very well that the vicious Alpha Gabriel has sent you just to mislead me so that you can pass on the information and secrets of the Dark Moon Pack to the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. I know that it is a conspiracy against me. But you are fools to assume that I would fall into your trap.” Alpha Amelia yelled as she flogged Ivan on his bare chest and back multiple times, making him scream out of the pain that he was suffering.She then turned toward Liam. She had already chained their hands to the poles in the open air. “And you? Do you think of yourself as a super hero that you were trying to sneak into my mansion at night? If my guard had not caught you red-handed climbing o
So what if Luna Lara is lying unconscious? I already know that she has been poisoned. That is not a reason for you to become the next Alpha, and don’t just stop me from killing these soldiers, ‘Ivan and Liam'.“They are telling the truth. They have been banished by Alpha Gabriel from the Blood Moon Pack. If they join your Dark Moon Pack, then they might be of great help to you, and you can attack the Blood Moon Pack with better preparation next time by extracting their secrets and war tactics from these soldiers. I will also try to help you, but not if I become the next Alpha. I mean, I will not allow you to attack our pack if I am declared the Alpha." William smirked as he said that.“Stop dreaming, William. You are nothing in front of Alpha Gabriel. He is so powerful that he has defeated me and my Beta several times in the battle. You stand nowhere in the race. So it is better for you to remain down to earth.” Alpha Amelia spoke curtly.“I can easily replace Alpha Gabriel if you sup
Beta Leon walked briskly towards Alpha Gabriel’s mansion. He had an important piece of news to disclose to the Alpha. Sweat beads trickled down his forehead as he came running all the way after receiving the news. He had his residence half a mile ahead of Alpha Gabriel’s mansion. Clara had answered the call, and the couple had started panicking the moment they received the news from the other end. Meeting the Alpha and talking to him about the issue was important. It was not safe to convey such important and confidential information over the phone. So he decided to meet the Alpha himself.It was just 6 a.m., and Alpha Gabriel was in the habit of sleeping till the sun shone brightly. He used to wake up by 7.30 a.m. Beta Leon knew the Alpha’s nature. What he could not tolerate at all was anybody waking him up by force before the scheduled time. He knew that if he woke him up, he would be enraged. But the matter was urgent, so he went ahead without caring for the consequences.His legs s
