"I told you, didn't I? I told you not to let her go into the damn wood but what came next? You are the cause of the poor girl's misfortune, right now. You're been too adamant and all simply because she's a maid. But Westley, I can assure you I won't take it lightly once anything happens to her."Jayson uttered, his voice coupled with his look spelling out irritation.

Westley could be seen standing by his room's doorway, his arms folded together as he listened on to what was none other than rambles from Jayson. A bitter chuckle left his throat, "Was that seriously the reason why you came knocking at my door and almost pulling it down?"

Jayson responded with nothing and just stared him down. His anger wasn't subtle; it was as if he knew such a thing would happen and thus, he never wanted Keira to go. But his two brothers have had it their way, haven't they?

"There's something I don't understand and that's-" Westley piped out, pushing himself off the wall and steadily standing closer to h

    LET THE POOR GIRL LIVE."He sure has the guts!"Grounding his teeth together, he held tightly unto the document as he jammed his fist into the wall. This sudden abrupt move creaked Keira's bed and in the matter of a second, her eyelids opened...A grunt emits from her lungs as she struggled to seat upright on the bed. Not able to maintain her stance, she rested her back against the headrest whiling slowly winching. Meanwhile Hayden retrieved his fist from the wall and stared intently at it before sighing in distress and striding along the hallway."Why does every part of me hurt this much?" Her voice was laced with writhing pains and agony as she spoke, her hand going over her head to feel her temperature and indeed, her forehead was as heated as a burning coal. She doesn't have much of a time to digress on her aches as her stomach churched with hunger. A gasp escaped her pale lips as it came to her remembrance that she haven't taken any meal whatsoever since yesterday's with Alpha Ja

    LET THE POOR GIRL LIVE (II)"What the fuck are you doing in my room?!"He sprunt upright on the bed and yelled menacingly, alongside a sneer that has her frightened, flinching back in complete horror.A cold shiver immediately ran down her spine at his coldness. She should have knew this would be a bad idea. She should have stayed right back at her room and prevent incurring his wrath. She should have-"Are you dumb or what?"She snapped out of her regret-filled trance as soon as he toned out again. All of a sudden, the temperature of the room turned real cold against her body. Or was it just her? Well, since this was all fultile after all, she should just forget it and get back to her room. Yes, that had be better.As soon as her hand touched the doorknob, she knew that yet again- she should have knew better than trying to outsmart him. Of course, she couldn't just walk into his room without any tangible reason and expect to make her way out just like that."I thought I asked you a que

    AN IRRITATING PRESENCE."Tell me yourself, sweetheart. Are you worthy of living?"The question sets Kiera off. Yes, she's a maid and if anything, her life has been nothing but miserable ever since but that still wasn't enough reason for her to go about regretting her existence. Even though ever since she's been here; she's been facing nothing but hates, lack of attention, hunger, despise but yet again, she hasn't seen any of it the reason for her to question her existence.Her breathing stopped when his finger came over her face, tilting her jaw up for better view of her face."No response? When I talk, you don't keep mute but respond. Alright?"Staring into her eyes, he stated and as a bile arises in her throat, she gulped and cautiously nodded her head. Seemingly satisfied, he slightly smiled and backed away, crossing his arms and watching her next move.Now she started thinking- should she give me a true reply or just lie? Should she lie her way through and just escape. Well, maybe

    MOON'S BAD OBSESSIONShe bowed and started walking past him while grumbling, "Only heaven knows what crawled up his ass and died.""You say what?!"He fired at her back and her eyes widened, halting on the spot as realization dawned on her that she had spoke that out loud.Her palms clamped her mouth and before she knew it, she heard the sound of his footsteps as it vehemently began venturing towards her from behind her. It was as if death was on her trail and so not to get captured, she feigned unaware and began to take long strides up the hallway.But then what if she succeeded and was able to not incur his wrath?Fuck her dumb mouth for having to say that out loud. Only heaven knows what he was going to make her go through. Was he going to punish her if eventually he manages to get his hands on her?If anything, all she knows was that there was no way he was letting her off the hook."Hey!" His figure appeared before her out of the blue and she flinched back, frightened. Like she ha

    INNOCENTAnd there and then, the watering can fell off her hand as she took on her heels.Keira hysterically ran into the mansion, leaving the men to chase after her and Moon standing there in the garden with arms crossed. "That brat" She evily chuckled and began to march off into the mansion. The clicking of her heels against the titled floor announced a presence to the workers and they all parted ways for her as she made her way further inside.Keira hasn't finished ascending the stairs when she saw the men burst in, causing her heart to race hysterically."Get down here right now before we're going to have to force you down here ourselves."One of the men ordered in his husky voice as the rest of him steadily made way towards her.Knowing this was nothing but their tricks, she ran off and away into her room.Just as the men were about chasing after her, Moon stepped in."This is the Alphas abode, men. Y'all can go stand outside and I'll deal with her myself. You all mustn't trespas

    WHY DO YOU CARE?Kiera could be seen crouched to the floor in her room, her arms encircled around her body as her face deepened into her dress; now nothing but a sobbing mess. The imprints of Moon's fingers around her neck are still quite visible to the eyes. Her tears reinforced, not stopping anytime soon until she heard someone place a knock on her window.She quickly rose up on her feet and ventured towards the window. She dabbed at her eyes with the end of her crop top sleeves before letting out a breath and letting the window open."W-what are you doing here?"She was more than astounded to find none other than Alpha Hayden right there at her window; having gone through the stress of a ladder to come to her. But why?"Can I come in?"He disregarded her question and inquired, his eye pinpointing behind her. "Yes, yes. Sure." She nodded as quick as possible and shifted back, gladly making way for him because what else was she supposed to do? He's her Alpha and even if it were to b

    SPREADING OF RUMORS"As from now on, I want Keira in charge of the meal and anyone who refuses to adhere by this rule shall have me to deal with."He stated fiercely, catching all the maids unaware; their heads bowed as they dared not look him in the eyes.While Keira stood there, also as dumbfounded as them. Why's he doing this?"Alright, Alpha."They all chorused in sycn and satisfied, he turned around and made his way past her, going out of the kitchen. Just as the maids starts to raise up their heads, she dashed out beforehand; not waiting to witness what they might do to her.Meanwhile, Jayden was in his room scrolling through a particular magazine when a short knock came on the door before it was pushed opened, revealing a certain presence."What are you doing here?"He looked over at her and asked, confused while raising a brow at her. She frowned, feigning pretense. "I don't understand what you're talking about.""I don't remember sending for you, Moon. That's what am saying and

    THE SUDDEN RESPECTAnd that was all she could manage to take before she stabbed the knife in her hand into the steak on the counter and half yelled at them, boiling with annoyance. "Can you all shut the hell up already?!"They all smacked their lips together all at once and she huffed, breathing in and out before turning to face them.They all turned their faces away and just as she shook her head and turned around to continue her business, she heard them chorus synchronically, "We are sorry, ma'am."She was taken about by that. The knife she'd just grabbed almost slipped out of her hand but she quickly tightened her grip on it and gulped down the bile that had raised down her throat.She didn't respond because yes; why would she when all she's getting the sudden respect? She acted unaware of their apology and began to dice the carrots and other vegetables, her mind still whirling around the happenings in the abode of recent."Uhm, I was thinking..."One of the maid stammered, coming u

    "At first, he had tried to entice me by showing me all that I would stand to gain if I accepted his offer. According to him, his pack was large enough to accommodate us and he would be responsible for our safety, that way we wouldn't need to fight off enemies all by ourselves. That made so much sense but I could not accept it." "This pack means more to me than just being a pack. It's a remnant of Crystal pack. I can't just team up with some other pack who had no idea what we've been through. Besides, I discovered that Kappa is somehow involved with Alpha Lundamous' son. I can't have anything to do with a pack who teams up with the one pack that killed my parents." He remained quiet, not wanting to interrupt for fear that she might come to her senses and shut up her emotions like he had seen her do to others. It was a huge surprise that she was revealing all these to him and Hayden was sure she was only doing that because she thought he was someone else. Speaking out would make her r

    BEEN THROUGH A LOT He was starting to feel discouraged after running for a while without any sight of the alpha.He had no idea if he had followed the exact path she had taken but he had seen some paw prints on the wet ground and had simply followed. But currently, he was beginning to doubt if those paws belonged to the alpha.Wiping the sweat that had now creased his brow, he sighed heavily, wondering if he should just return or continue his search. Would she even want to see him?After listening to Kunata say shit about him, he was not so confident about the Alpha's feelings for him anymore. Though she had not said anything bad about him — except that she would kill him if he turned out to be an enemy; his heart was still hurt by those words — Aiden didn't know how she was feeling inside.Was she beginning to have some second thoughts about him? Would she listen to Kunata and send him out of the pack? Or would she let him stay but withdraw herself from him?Surprisingly, he didn't

    DON'T WANT TO BELIEVE I had been waiting for close to thirty minutes yet no sign of him. Did he think I was a joke? Had he deliberately accepted to meet me just to stand me up for hours?I raked a finger through my hair, trying to control my anger as I stood at the foot of the baobab tree we had agreed to meet at. This spot was one of the secret places we could meet and I had personally chosen it so we could have our conversation without being seen by nosy wolves in the pack.I let out a big sigh, still wondering if I had been played. Had he done this just to get back at me? I didn't want to believe that I had been stupid enough to get played on like this.To be honest, I would not be surprised if he didn't show up. Somehow, I was expecting him not to. It had been years since we last had a proper conversation and I was not sure he liked me anymore to want to be around me.Nevertheless, he should have just told me he was not going to come rather than lead me on only to abandon me to m

    BURST OUTShe looked at me, her blue eyes watering as her lips quivered."I don't know. He left. He didn't want to hurt me so he left. He felt he would harm me if he remained here with me. But I don't think so. I told him we will get through this together. I know I will be able to calm him anytime he shifts. I'm not afraid of him. I love him." She burst out in tears.I stared at her, my jaw dropped in shock and surprise. What was she saying? Why would Aiden think he would hurt her?Aiden was the sweetest person I have ever known so it just didn't sit right with me that he would hurt a person. Besides, did she just say she loved Aiden? What made her think she had the right?There were so many questions I wanted to ask but the exact opposite left my lips."I don't understand.""Do you know Aiden is an Epsilon?" She wiped her tears and sniffed. She was looking at me like I should know what she was talking about but I had no idea."A what?""An Epsilon. Don't you know what that means?""A

    ANYWAY He kept staring at him, finding it funny that the man would think he knew his alpha. He had mentioned her name with so much pride and he was sure he had expected him to cower at the sound. But he was not in any way afraid, in fact, he was intrigued. Intrigued by this pack with a female alpha. "Let him go, Kunata!" Alpha Velvet sighed. Kunata finally let him go, but not without squeezing his shirt a little bit tighter and growling into his face. Aiden adjusted his tunic and leaned back to the heap of stones, his golden-brown eyes on the alpha who was slowly approaching him. "I don't think you should come close to him, alpha. I strongly believe he is dangerous." "Stop it, Kunata. I can take care of myself, remember?" They were talking about him as if he wasn't there. Aiden wanted to yell at them that he was right by their side and would appreciate it if they let him be but it seemed like the words had solidified in his throat, making it difficult to get them out. Alpha Ve

    MORPHED He could not take his eyes off the bloody corpse lying all around him. The werewolves who had attacked him had now morphed back to their human forms and their bodies lay in waste, blood oozing out from various parts of their lifeless bodies. They were dead and he could not believe he had killed them. When he had threatened to feed on their corpse, he had never meant to kill them. He had only wanted to scare them off and perhaps injure them a little just to teach them some lesson, but the worst had happened. His wolf had done what it knew how to do best and it had gone ahead to rip them all apart. Aiden could still remember trying to stop his wolf from killing them, he had yelled, had even tried to morph back to his human self but all his effort had been futile because his wolf had not listened to him. It felt like they were two different entities with different minds and no matter how much he yelled, it was as though his wolf could not hear his voice. Now that he was thi

    SOMEHOW It was so noisy here and the noise hurt my ears. I didn't know where I was but this was the only pack I had seen ever since I began this journey and my instinct told me Aiden must be here.Now I could not explain why I felt so strongly that he must be in this pack. I couldn't catch his scent so it could not be that but my instinct never lied, and I knew it would not start lying to me now.It had been a day since I left the Blood Moon pack after speaking to Aiden's friends. After gaining no information about Aiden's whereabouts from them, I decided to embark on my search alone.No one seemed to be worried about Aiden, including his mother. I had visited her after her release and had asked if she knew anything about her son but the omega woman had only shrugged and had said with a dreamy smile that she believed her son was okay.I could still remember how confused I had been and I had gone ahead to ask her why she was so confident. The woman had shrugged again but had remained

    LIST "I said you should stop. Are you deaf?" The voice called out again and I tensed, my jaw working badly as I tried to keep calm. Whosoever it was starting to get on my nerves and it was difficult to stay calm anymore.I had never liked to be ordered around; all my life, I had been ordered around like a dog but had to endure it because I had no choice.But now, I wasn't under an alpha, neither did I belong to a pack, I was an outlaw and I would be damned if I allowed some assholes to order me around."I said you should stop!" I felt a grip on my wrist, forcefully pulling me around and before I could react, he had punched me hard in the face. I staggered but soon regained my composure.A snicker escaped my lips as I touched my nose where he had punched me. It hurt like hell and I was sure my nose was broken but I still laughed."Are you laughing?" I heard him say and I raised my head to look at my attacker.He was a tall lanky man with heavy beards and he had a scowl on his face. H

    NOT A WORD I could not say a word, not because I didn't know what to say but because I was still stunned by the kiss. I had not been expecting that. It was just a slight brush but it was still a kiss."I didn't think your type still exist. The book I read said it didn't." Nicole returned to her sitting position."What are you saying?" I sat back too, still maintaining some distance in between. I didn't know what could happen so it was best I stayed away. I didn't even like that she was in the room with me. What if I shifted again? This time around, I didn't think she would survive. There would be no way for her."Nicole, I think you should leave. You can't be here with — ""Epsilon!" She cut me off."What?"
