After I was finished being primped and pampered by Aunt Eve and put in the dress that Grandfather had brought, I was ready for the dreaded gathering. Juniper and the others were going to pick me up on their way, it would be easier for me with them there.
When we left my house, which was located in the upper section of the compound thanks to my family's status, or previous status, we headed to the northernmost road. I had lived in the compound my whole life, but even so,I had never actually been to the Alpha's house before. I had gathered with everyone at the clearing where important meetings and events were usually held, unless the weather was too bad. But I had never actually been to the Alpha's residence, and judging by Juniper's response, neither had she.
"This is actually exciting. " She exclaimed as we drove up the long, long driveway that led up to the Alpha House. At the back of the compound there was a small road, but this road was actually a driveway. All the houses in the compound stopped before the forest started. All except for the Alpha's. The Alpha House was at the end of a two-mile-long driveway, weaving between the tall, thick trees as the road sloped ever upward. The farther into the forest you went, the higher into the mountains you went. The Alpha House wasn't very high, but it was still impressive to see.
I noticed several strings of lights strung between the trees. I was pretty sure that they had been hung just for the gathering tonight,but how was I supposed to know for certain.Whatever the reason for the lights, though,they gave off a beautiful yet eerie glow. It was strange, we had only left at a quarter to seven, but it looked like it was full dark outside now. The sun shouldn't have set that quickly.
As we got closer to the house, I saw that several men about my age were directing people where to go. Cedar pulled the car to a stop and a man asked who would be attending the gathering as an unmated pack member.
"I will. " Cedar and I both said at the same time.
"What is your name? " The man asked me,ignoring Cedar.
"Trinity. " I told him, sounding a little confused.
"Last name? " He asked me, a stern tone in his voice. As far as I knew, I was the only pack member named Trinity.
"Whitton. " I told him, now feeling annoyed. I noticed his jolt in surprise when he heard my name, I see my legacy is well known among the entire pack.
"Miss Whitton, you are in group number three.You will be having your one on one and group meetings with the Alpha at the gathering in two months' time if he has yet to find a mate by then. Please, use this time to mingle with the other pack members.Should you happen to find a different mate among the pack, the Alpha would consider this gathering to be quite the success. " I had no idea what-so-ever what he was talking about, but I nodded my head anyway and Cedar drove to the parking space that the man indicated for us.
We followed the lights further up the path.Soon, we came to a huge stone mansion.It looked like it had been there since the start of the 1900's, but had been beautifully restored and well maintained over time. It was easily 10, 000 square feet, if not more.The place was massive. I could even see a tower sticking up in the roof, a tower of all things, like it was a castle. This is like a whole different world.
The gathering was being held outside. That was fine with me. I was overwhelmed just looking at that house, actually going inside it would be too much. There was a dance floor set up among all the dazzling lights. A beautifully decorated, yet somewhat tacky,screened tent was where all the food for the evening was being held. It was beautiful because someone had tried their best to make it look amazing, tacky because try as you might you just can't hide those bug screens.
The gathering was apparently a buffet-style dinner, where we would all mingle, talk,dance, and do whatever. I just wanted to go home already. Granted, the food did smell very delicious.
The party, as everyone around me was calling it, was just getting into full swing.Juniper was dragging me around to all her We followed the lights further up the path.Soon,we came to a huge stone mansion.

The party, as everyone around me was callingit, was just getting into full swing.Juniper was dragging me around to all her friends to introduce me. Most of them seemed like they wanted to be friends, but that they couldn't go against what they had been told or taught for years. The end result was every single person I was introduced to sneering at me and asking why I even bothered to show up.
"I'm so sorry, Trin. " Juniper was close to tears when the last of the people she had wanted to introduce me to had snubbed me.
"Don't worry about it, Juniper, I'm used to it by now. " I told her with a reassuring smile.
"That makes it worse. " She almost cried.
"It's really fine Juniper. " I told her as I rubbed her arm gently.
"I'm going to go give them a piece of my mind, and you can't stop me. " She began,seeing as I was about to try to do just that.She hurried away from me. I knew it would just end in failure for me to try to associate with so many different pack members. I was happy just having the few that I called friends now. It was more than I ever thought I would have.
I didn't want to join the party. Not to mention Juniper would have more fun with Paul and her other friends if I wasn't around. I could just stay out of everyone's way, and Grandfather would never know that I had completely blown off the party and ignored everyone there. It was a win-win for me.
I had just decided that I was going to ignore the party when I caught the faintest trace of that intoxicatingly dangerous scent from this morning. Whoever that scent belonged to, he was here at the gathering, and I definitely did not want to see him!
I ducked under the string of lights and followed the line of trees a little further into the forest. I could tell that whoever it was I was avoiding had been in this part of the forest as well, but the scent was very old so it was not likely that I would run into him now. I found a tree that looked as if it had fallen down in a storm a very long time ago.It was half buried in the forest floor, making it low enough that I could sit on it easily, and the bark had been smoothed down, making it less rough for me to sit on. Feeling confident the tree wouldn't ruin my dress or feel uncomfortable against my legs, I settled in for a long wait.
Unfortunately, I hadn't been there for long before the scent started to get stronger.
Much, much stronger. He was coming towards me and he was coming fast
"Hello, Xoxo" Zanky spoke out, immediately the person from the other end picked up the call."Is the job done?" Zanky questioned further, going straight to the point."Not yet boss hi...""Are you crazy? Then why the hell are you calling me?" Zanky bluntly cut Xoxo off before he could complete his words. "He doesn't want to give you your share. He's claiming all of it."Xoxo replied softly, trying to be as calm as possible. He doesn't want to be on Zanky's bad list. Zanky isn't someone Xoxo could offer to offend."Damn him! Damn that mother fucker. Who the hell does he think he is?"Zanky roared hitting his fist on the wall of his room angrily."Calm down bo…""Don't you dare ask me to calm down. don't dare!" Zanky shunned him immediately before Xoxo could even finish up his words."He has bitten more than he can chew and I'm gonna bite him hard where he least expects it...."Zanky groaned, squeezing his bleeding fists tightly.Xoxo remain silent, without muttering a word; awaiting his
They tip-toed along the hallway leading to spider's room and almost immediately, gunshots rang out...Groans are heard! someone has been shot."Vicky!"xoxo called in a whispering tone. He couldn't risk raising his voice."Vicky!"he called again but, everywhere remained dead silent except,the low groans being heard. He rushed towards the direction the groans were coming from, and there he sat, with his hands hovering around his shot leg."ple...ase he..lp me.. Xoxo..o. don't leave me here."he groaned out painfully."I won't! can you at least stand up?"he asked, trying to support him up to his feet."I can..t! Just do something.."he roared out in pain.Xoxo tore the hem of his shirt, and tied it around the injured area. He lifted him up with one of his hands around his shoulders.They turned, walking to the exit of the hallway with Xoxo supporting Vicky's movement.They came into the opening, and kept running, walking out of the premises."Gosh! I am tired, Vic. let's rest a little."Xox
Zanky tried having his rest but then, this weird feeling kept nudging him and sleep became far fetched from him. He stood up from his bed with just his shorts and made his way to his balcony.He turned on his phone to check up on his son and almost immediately, Fred his personal bodyguards call came in.Zanky quickly picked up the call without hesitating for a moment."Boss Zanky, something bad had happened" Fred anxious voice was heard from the other end of the phone.A deep frown Immediately circulated Zanky's face. That wasn't what he was hoping to hear. " What's going on?" He questioned, trying his best to keep calm and get to know what was happening."Boss, it's your son Vicky." Fred said again, he just didn't know how to pass out such a painful news to his boss. "What the hell happened to my son? Get to the point, Fred!" Zanky snapped into the phone, his patience flewing out of the windows in a hurry."He is dead, Boss! Spider shot him severally on his chest. Vicky is no more,
At 11:15am, two young beautiful ladies could be spotted sitting inside a bookshop, discussing."I just can't imagine him doing this to me right now. It's so maddening, you know." Sassy stated rounding up the story she's been telling Kim."If I were to be in your shoes, I'd let it slide."Kim shrugs, flipping over a book.What!"Can't believe you just said that, Kim. Why would you say such an annoying word?"Sassy gritted out while glaring hard at Kim."Look babe, there's a reason he went into hiding with you, stop overreacting and you'd see it's for your very own good like he's been saying to you."Kim muttered and continued flipping over the book."Hmmm, I really can't believe you are literally taking his side instead of mine."Sassy hummed, flipping over her own book."Don't take what I said to heart, Sassy. I just want you to stop treating your dad in such a manner just because he did something you aren't in support of. To me,he might be right, Sassy. Think about the good days and try
The suite room was so dark that you could hardly see anything inside the room, not to mention seeing a human. Spider sat on the couch at the side of the room busy puffing out thick smoke from his cigarette.At that moment, his phone rang out. The screen of his phone lights up the part he is seated on. After taking a glimpse of the caller, he taps on his answer icon."Spider on the line." His cold baritone voice rang out. "Boss, there's something you need to know." The voice from the other end said anxiously."Then tell me, shasha. What's it?" He asked gruffly as he took more drags from his cigarette. "Zanky has placed a hit on his right hand man Xoxo. Xoxo is currently kidnapped by Zanky." Shasha says with a voice that looks more like a whisper.Spider knitted his brows at the words he had just heard. "Why? Why did he place a hit on his own man?" Spider finally asks. "For his son, boss. Zanky felt Xoxo should have taken the hit for his son but Xoxo couldn't do it and now, he took Xox
"Come to daddy, baby.." Zanky says grinning widely as he stared lustfully at Sassy. Sassy cringe at his gaze and more tears pour out of her eyes as she manages to get on her knees and crawl slowly towards him. Now the huge phallus was now standing upright in front of her making her whole body vibrate in fear. She didn't know what to do or where to start from. What was he expecting her to do with this thing pointing at her?"Get started, baby. Daddy is waiting for your warm touch." Zanky says and yanks her hair tight in a firm grip making her let out an agonizing cry. "Oh please…" she cried out as the pain was making her scalp hurt due to his tight grip."Stay still!" He ordered his grinning face suddenly turning into a frown as he took his phallus straight into her Mouth making her gag the moment it hit the back of her throat. "Umumum" She groaned as she couldn't breathe nor say a word as the phallus filled the whole of her mouth. Zanky chuckles loudly, loving her small mouth wrapped
Zanky finished bathing and stepped out of the bathroom with just a towel wrap at his lower part. He was grateful Angela already left else, he was really gonna vent his anger on her. Zanky quickly dress up in a black ripped jean and a white sweat shirt. He combed his hair to the left part of his face giving him a killer looks.After seeing he was okay In his mirror, he pick up his phone and exits his room. As he walk along the hallway, his clan members kept on greeting him but, he ignored them all. He got into his car and his driver drove off.After driving for a long while, they finally pulled to a stop at a magnificent mansion. His driver got down quickly and pulls the door open for him to step out. Zanky made his way towards the building with the house keeper bowing in respect to him.The moment he step inside the living room, he heard a deep baritone voice "You finally decided to come after two weeks of inviting you over." The voice said before taking a sip from his glass of wine.
Sassy huddled down in her room. The room was an empty cold one. She has been here for one week. She craves being outside....anywhere. Anywhere at all that's not this cold barren space. Only one bunk bed occupied the side of the room.She hasn't seen her abductor in the past one week and that was the time he walked up to her, staring at her with the coldest eyes she has ever seen as she stood wearing one of those rags he had asked her to always wear..My sex slave. He'd called her.A chill went down Sassy's arms. She has never seen hatred more raw before, in anybody's eyes. It's so obvious this man in front of her hated her so much! But why her?A week ago, she was was her father's daughter. Daughter of Xoxo. She was respected by her father's friends and was well pampered by her lovely dad.The sound of footsteps drew Sassy's attention towards the door of the room. The door opened and a bodyguard entered.He held on to a tray of food and Sassy's stomach rumbled, hunger shoving through
