* Ashley *Waking up in the morning with no one beside me seemed to become usual ever since Alpha King Vincent left to help Alpha Xander at the West. I've tried my best to get busy but still, I can't deny the fact that I am lonely without him. I missed him, my body longed for his touch and the warmth of his love. Every day I am hoping that he comes back soon, there is no specific date for his arrival but I am hopeful it is sooner.I shook my head and got out of bed removing the sad thoughts, I walk towards the window and open the thick curtains covering the glass. It's going to be a beautiful day and the Palace is so quiet and peaceful."Good morning your majesty, I am bringing your tea and breakfast.”Riza came in with a tray of sandwich some fruits and the cup of hot tea. I appreciate her gesture making sure that I have something before I get out of the chambers and go train with Beta Derek."Thank you, Riza, but I'm gonna have to shower first."I made her an apologetic look as sh
* Ashley *I was at home before sunset and as I am finishing my cup of green tea on the serene balcony of our chambers, a worried look on Riza's face appeared in between the glass doors separating the balcony from our bedroom. "Your majesty, the old wizard is in the door asking if you could talk to him. He said it is urgent."My brows furrowed, usually Maleficus only asks my situation on the mind link but tonight is different. What could be the problem? Did something happened to my husband in the West? I placed the empty cup on the saucer and nodded. I should know immediately what Maleficus is going to tell me."Please let him inside the living room, I will see him shortly."Riza left and I followed her but I halt in front of my dresser and make a quick look at my face. Good thing I haven't put on my pajama yet, I wish Maleficus is not having a bad vision however I already felt a tiny tension rising inside the chambers."Good evening your majesty!"He got up from the couch and greete
* Alpha King Vincent *The two traitors are now sleeping in prison, they were apprehended that day I condemned them for the crime they perpetrated. However, Alpha Xander is still in a difficult situation because the traitors would not open their mouths about the identity of their leader and where he is. We resort to intense torture to get the truth out of them with no luck. It has already been a week since I left the Langston palace and only exchanged messages with my Luna twice."Your majesty! I'm sorry to disturb you but something happened in prison today."Alex hurriedly opened the door of my room without knocking. I was about to finish putting on my jogging suit to start my morning run when he arrives. "Good morning Alex, what is it this time?"I pulled down the shirt and faced him calmly. The sweat on his forehead tells me that he went running for miles to see me early."We were doing our rounds on the prisoner's cell when I notice that something happened to Alkhir. Your majesty,
* Luna Ashley *Before the sun bid goodbye to the forest of the Langston Palace and took away the rays of light that it bestowed for the day, Maleficus and Beta Derek decided that we show the enemies our strength. I stood behind them who fought hard to keep me behind the walls of the Palace, however as I challenge Beta Derek to either fight me or we fight together, the old man Maleficus insisted to follow my orders.We have a group of warriors already waiting by the roads so the enemies will be seen even before they enter the borders of the Royal pack. My heart is thumping loudly inside my chest as I am standing with my feet bare and only a house dress on. Hundreds of warriors behind my back and another hundreds in the front. We are all ready to shift and defend the Langston Palace."I hate standing here with you your majesty, waiting for the enemy to approach is not my thing. I should have stayed in the front roads to meet the first enemy who enters our way. This is ridiculous."Bet
*Alpha King Vincent *The air feels different, the winds that blow from the East will past the trees and the tall grasses carrying the scent of flowers and the insects that joins the course of nature. However, it doesn't feel normal anymore. Every day since I arrived in the West, I make it a habit to sit by the balcony and used my heightened sense of smell to get familiarized myself with the scent around me. And now I am certainly aware of the strange scents that mix with the usual scents that I inhale every day.My eyes squinted as I tried to look much closer into the tall trees. Calib who just left to run some errands is still in the mansion, I can feel his footsteps going down the stairs. But before he could leave, I opened the mind link to call him."Calib, come back. I want you to see something."I feel his movements stop and then he walks towards the stairs and back into the door which leads to the balcony. "What is it, your majesty?"His eyes meet mine when I turn around to see
*Alpha King Vincent *"How dare you!"I feel enraged as the meaning of his words reaches my ears. Just when I was about to make a move, shots were fired against us. My reflexes were faster than the bullet when I jump away and dodge a dozen of them being rained down on us."No! You bastard!"The warriors are being hit! As much as I wanted to kill him but I needed to stop the snipers hiding above the trees. I must stop them or my warriors will die against the silver bullets. Damn humans!"Stop shooting you fools!"I have located two snipers above the branches of a tree not far from the place where we encountered Rio and his rogues. My movements are faster than the bullet they fired, for I took one man after the other, and then it makes one left."You are as good as I could remember your majesty! Still the fastest wolf in the land! However not fast enough to save the others!"My eyes turned red as I watch the warriors from the Langston Palace burn in the hit of the silver bullets shot th
* Alpha King Vincent *I felt his strength and the anger boiling inside his body as Alpha Xander crushed his heart in front of all the warriors and rogues, and before my very eyes. Everyone stared at him and no one dares to move or say anything even I was stunned for a second before I realized that I have to declare that the enemies have no more leader. Rio's eyes turned blank before his body collapsed on the floor creating a loud thud."Rio is dead! Long live Alpha Xander of the West who defended his territory with courage!"I howled loudly, echoing through the lands of the West, declaring our triumph and giving fear to the remaining enemies as they dropped to the ground and whimpered. They surrendered to the warriors of the West and to my warriors which survived."Alpha Xander! Are you alright?"Alex run towards him and hold his shoulders. His hands still hold the heart of Rio, but he crushed it strongly and then held his head high. Just like a brave warrior who won the fight."The
* Ashley *After we succeeded in fighting against our enemies, the wolves in the Palace get busy for the preparation of Alpha King Vincent's arrival. Maleficus have also informed me of the upcoming full wolf moon to conceive an heir to the throne. Alpha King Vincent is an only pup and it will be better if we can have more children with us. There are only two days left and finally, he will come back with all the warriors who joined him on the journey to the West.I was about to get out of the room when my phone ring. There is only one person who calls me in that number, because I rarely use mobile phone. It is my mother. My hand quickly grab the mobile and put it beside my ear."Hello mom?"It's been a while since I last saw her. She must have heard about the travel of the Alpha King away from the Palace."Hi sweetheart, I called to let you know that I am visiting you tomorrow if that's alright? Maybe you are lonely since I heard about the Alpha King Vincent being on travel."The smile
* Luna Ashley *I pace back and forth on the floor of our room creating a noise that everyone could here around me while I look at the door, we keep it open so that I could hear what they were talking about in the office down the hall. Maleficus looks at me with a reassuring gaze, while my mother sit still on the couch beside him."Your majesty, I think this will be over soon. Don't worry about Alpha King Vincent, he is capable of concealing his temper in order not to hurt those humans."I shook my head and watch the door again. "I wanted to be with the meeting but they won't allow me to."My mother smiled at me. "Sweetheart, just let the men do the talking for now. There is a peace treaty that needs to be followed but lately, the rules have been broken by so many humans in the city so maybe they have to make a new set of rules that will be applied to all."I nodded my head. Unlike me, my mother understood the legal process better. "They were talking for quite a long time. I want you
*Alpha King Vincent *"How is she?"The pack doctors smiled at me. "Good morning your majesty, her vitals are good. We are sure that she will wake up soon."I took a deep breath and look at Ashley, she look better now. I notice her rosy cheeks returned their color, she is also breathing normally. It is a good day, I am certain that my Luna will wake up soon.“Thank you for the hard work, you can all get some rest today.""You're welcome, your majesty."They bow to me once more before leaving our bedroom. I move towards the window and open the curtains wide. To let the rays of sunlight get inside is good for Ashley."Good morning your majesty, would you like me to bring you a cup of coffee?"Riza stood at the door of our bedroom asking me with a smile on her face. "Morning Riza, yes please."I heard her footstep descend while I lowered myself on the couch near the bed. My eyes did not leave Ashley, I can feel that she will wake up soon. A few minutes later then Riza came into the room
* Alpha King Vincent *The room is now quiet, as I have instructed all of them to leave. I stay alone watching her laying on our bed, I wanted to kiss her and talk to her. Hear her voice and listen as she whispers the words I longed to hear. I needed her, but she is still weak fighting the poison in her body. My eyes close as I leaned my back on the couch which I place next to our bed.I couldn't take it if she wouldn't wake up, the rage is fueling my fear as I clenched my fist and gritted my teeth. Now my thoughts are on the people who did this to her, the humans! Treacherous humans, I swear to the Moon Goddess if she did not improve I shall end their lives. Their family will suffer my fury and no one can stop me, I am the Alpha King, I will make them pay until the last person with a drop of the same blood in their veins."Beta Derek!" I decided to call my Beta in the mind link and ask him what is the situation in the prison. If I am to go there that old woman will not live to see t
* Alpha King Vincent *With the familiar roads and the trees beside it with the birds chirping as we passed by, I can feel a growing sense of happiness as I remember the land where I come from. I know the warriors with me felt the same. As we have been away for quite a while, most of us missed the familiar grounds more. And there is one person that I miss the most. My Queen Luna of the Royal pack, Ashley. I wanted to surprise her by coming earlier than what was planned."Oh, we're almost there your majesty. It feels like home already."Calib uttered while watching at the window of our vehicle. He is taking the steering wheel while I sat beside him in the front. The air and even the sky is familiar."It feels good to be back. I hope that nothing out of ordinary has happened while I am away."Calib smiled behind the steering wheel. "Maybe no, your majesty. Maleficus and Beta Derek are there so rest assured that everything is in place and the same as how it was when we left."I nodded an
