Alex’s pov Tuesdays were always very pleasant and I loved it when it was Tuesday, I also loved to take private meditations in my private chambers, it gave me comfort and peace of mind.It was around 11 am and the quietness of my private apartment was a pleasant thing to experience. My private apartment was the only place on this earth where I could truly cut off from the world and dive deep into the inner depths of my own mind and thoughts.Life wasn’t easy as an Alpha, I had said this countless times. There was a lot of burdens and responsibilities to bear and anyone who was not was not strong would totally collapse.I loved meditating all the time, it was my own form of refuge, a way to connect with the wolf that was inside of me.A way for me to maintain the balance necessary to lead my people rightMy room was lit but only with soft glowing white candles. Their flames were mild, but they danced up and down as if they were going to go wild. I had started my meditation and yoga
Alex’s pov.As Tatiana left my room, I kept on wondering what was wrong with her, because this wasn’t the Tatiana I knew.This behavior she had just exhibited was very strange and alarming, I had never seen this side of her ever before.Could it be that she had been lusting after me for a long time now and she hadn’t told me because of Exalia? And now that Exalia was not around, was she trying to use the opportunity to seduce me and lure me into making her my Luna?I kept on pondering and wondering, why on earth would Tatiana behave in the way and manner she just did?I sat on my bed and sighed, then I took a deep breathe and reached for a glass cup on the other side of the bed. I wanted to drink some water, as I took the jar and poured it into the glass cup, I felt a soft pain in my stomach.I ignored the pain and drank the water but the pain still continued drinking, but the pain lingered on.“What’s this now?” I murmured, taking off my shirt and holding my stomach tightly.I lay
Alex’s pov.Eldric and I were having a lofty conversation and I was still excited about Exalia’s return when I woke up. It was then that I discovered that it was all a dream.“Oh shit,” I said to myself as soon as I came back to reality and realized that it was a dream all along. I sat up straight and sighed deeply.It felt so real and I was really angry and disappointed when I realized it had been a dream all along, I mean why would do even have such a dream. The only explanation for having such a dream was if I was thinking about Exalia or if she would soon be back from the Lunari.Day by day, I missed my Luna more and more and I couldn’t wait for her return. As I sat on my bed, thinking about the dream I just had, my inner wolf suggested that it could probably be a sign that Exalia would soon return.If this was true, then that was a very good sign and who was I to argue with my inner wolf. It had never led me astray and it would never do that. I sat on my bed and sleep had alr
Alex’s pov “Why were you hitting the little boy?” I asked the man sharply, I wasn’t in the mood for games and hide and seek. I need straight answers and i need them now.” I said with a tone of command. The man was startled immediately and his body froze. I stared at him, waiting for his response.“Alpha, I didn’t hit the boy,” he denied, his voice shaky and his body vibrating. I looked at this man and shook my head, did he think I was a kid ? Or who was he lieng to?“I’m going to ask you one last time, don’t waste my time. Why did you hit the boy?” I asked again. This time, I was loosing my temper and I had run out of patience, it was obvious in my voice. “Alpha.. uhh sir, Alpha.” The man kept mumbling his words. “Are you going to speak or i should have you locked up?” I said, almost shouting and raising attention which I didn’t want.The old man was already frozen and his legs were shaking, his body vibrating at top speed.By now, he knew that I knew he was lying and he knew
Alex’s pov.I slept like a baby, as I had been tired from the previous night and when I finally did wake up, I was fully energized and full of strength. I got up from my bed and went to the window, I opened it and looked outside.The morning sun was shining bright in the sky and the ray was bright and beautiful.As I surveyed the environment from my window, I could see the barracks far off and I strained my eyes to see what was going on.The soldiers had already began their daily training routine and they were active.I noticed a new figure, standing and looking at them. I tried to make out who it was, but I couldn’t quite get it.I went to my bathroom and started to brush my teeth, I would bathe and get ready to start my day. As I brushed, I suddenly remembered that who the unknown figure was, it was the young boy I had rescued from his master’s beating yesterday.“Oh, how could I forget?” I murmured, wondering how I could forget something that happened just yesterday. His master w
Alex’s pov.From the look of the young lad, he was seemingly having pity on his master and I could see it in his eyes. This old man needed to be punished, he had disobeyed the laws. He needed to face the wrath of the law, so that he would do better next time. “Marcus, here’s the boy’s master that was beating him up yesterday.” I said to Marcus land Lena, pointing at the weary and sober old man.“Hmm, he looks quite crude,” commented Lena, and she walked up to the old man and observed him. The old man faced his head down in shame and soberness. “Alpha, he must face the law,” Marcus muttered to me with a serious and unfriendly tone.Lena heard what he said and nodded in agreement. As all this was going on, I looked at the boy’s face and i could see that he wasn’t happy. He obviously knew that we were discussing his master and we were deliberating on wether to punish him or not.The old man on the other hand, kept on begging and pleading for mercy, promising that he would never hit
Alex’s pov.The afternoon had a very calm and peaceful feeling, its light was mild as the sun was not really that bright. The radiation of the sun was mild and calm and cast lazy warmth across the whole kingdom. I was so bored and the boredom felt like a heavy cloak.You know the kind of boredom that would drive Somone to seek out an adventure or a task or activity to kill brighten up your mood. Well I had an idea already, I was going to use the training ground to kill my boredom.I walked up to the middle of the fields, and then I blew my whistle and called my available soldiers to gather Immediately.I could see the curiosity in their eyes as they all gathered immediately, wondering why I was calling them. “Today, I want us to do something special and interesting.” I said, announcing my plans. “I want you all to take turns to battle me with the sword, and whoever gets to conquer me shall get a gift of 100 karat gold immediately.” They all looked at me with shock and disbeli
Alex’s pov.Elsa and I fought and fought, I must confess the fact that she wasn’t an easy task. She was very swift and fast, and I don’t ever remember having fought a person like that before.As we fought, I kept on wondering if this was the underrated Elsa of our pack or if it was another person.For the first time since I started the duel this evening, my body started sweating profusely and I knew for sure that me wining this match was a probability.Who was this lady for crying out loud, and who has taught her how to fight like this? She was so calm and computed and she fought so skillfully. Many things started to play down in my head. Was she using diabolical means to fight ? Was she a more advanced supernatural? Or was she possessed? It wasn’t impossible that she might be possessed, but even if she was, I should be able to defeat whatever spirit possessed her.We continued fighting, and our swords clashed like thunder. The funny thing was that no one talked or made a sound, n
Exalia’s POVIt was a very large vortex of both shadows and flames, call it a portal of some sort, coupled with the fact that it looked very strange and creepy.It spewed imminent destruction, and it’s pulse was like that of a heartbeat, it also had a void center, which mirrored the scary eyes of the entity, just so terrifying.“Lets close it immediately,” Alex said, then he used his hands to grip mine.He was so strong, that his strength felt like a life line, Alex was really strong.As he spoke his words, I simply nodded, and in that moment, I began to draw on my Lunari abilities, because they came in handy.As I did this, I noticed that the power of the moon clashed with the darkness that I carried with me.It was as if the two forces were fighting for supremacy, but i tried not to bother myself, because I knew that the light would always prevail over the darkness.It was not easy at all, but I still perceived, and together, we began to chant with great power and energy, that our v
Exalia’s POVFlames of the UnseenThe loud echoes of the howl that came from our pack house came as a sudden disaster.It disrupted the moment of triumph that we were having, and it turned our moment of celebration into anxiety and worry.What about the sacred grounds?The sacred grounds were now quite, and the only sounds that could be heard was our ragged breaths. I was particularly worried and looking all around me, as the entity’s words still rang in my head.“Your home is burning, while you’re here fighting.” I did not understand what it meant, and I battled hard to grasp the meaning of that statement, what I knew for sure was that it did not mean anything good at all. But I kept thinking and contemplating, and as I thought about it, the implication became clearer and clearer, I began it understand it now.We had been distracted, and drawn away.I now understood that we had been lured into an unnecessary battle that was a distraction from the main calamity that would soon befa

Exalia’s POVIn the heat of the moment, Yara’s chants served as a shield for all of us. Yara and her Africans have really been a great help for us, because things would age been really tough for us without their help.Who knows where we would have ended up a long time ago? Oba’s staff was similar to a spear of light.What about Kofi? His strong ties and connections to the earth grounded us and aimed to make sure that the darkness would not succeed in pulling us into It’s abyss.Alex looked at my face, then he moved closer to me, and grabbed my hands.“How you holding up?” Alex asked me, with a tone of concern.I looked at him and smiled, and told him I was doing perfectly okay.“What about you? How you doing?” I asked him, he nodded his head and held my hands more tightly, I could see the urge in his eyes to protect the pack and all what we stood for. “It’s all good, we’re going to be just fine,” I whispered to him, hoping it would reassure him.But he just looked at me and smiled
Exalia’s POVAs all these was happening, i immediately countered, my voice was strictly firm inside my mind.“Balance does not necessarily mean domination at all. You have all been set free by the folly of human beings, but do not bother yourself, for we shall restore all that should be restored.”The beings began to hesitate, maybe it was because they could sense my connection. Maybe, they could sense the struggle I was facing with the darkness inside of me. Whatever their reason was, it was not know to me, neither was it known to any of us.But all we could see was that, they had hesitated for a moment. But all of a sudden, something strange and weird happened that got us startled.A lot of things had been happening recently, had gotten us really startled, but non could be compared to this one right now. The air started becoming colder, and to make matters worse, the entire ground started vibrating as if it was trembling in fear and panic.Now, from the deepest shadows that were

Exalia’s POVWe soon made preparations to depart, and as we departed, the air felt very charged, and looking up into the sky, it was as if the stars had been hidden by the clouds.One could also tell that the sky was preparing itself for what was to come, and there where a lot of clouds in the night’s sky, which made me feel that it might rain.“There are no clouds,” I whispered to Alex as we traveled. He looked into the sky and sighed, but he didn’t say anything. “Do you think it will rain?” I asked him, he looked up at the sky and then shook his head.“I don’t think so,” he said, looking up at the sky again. “I think we shall have a smoot journey.” He added, he held my hands as we continued our journey into the unknown.We traveled on and on, throughout the night, our pathways lit by the moon when it sometimes came out from the clouds that covered it.We kept on moving and moving, until we got to a place that seemed like a sacred ground. “This seems to be a high place of power,”
Exalia’s POVKofi was doing a lot, you could see it from the pale facial expression he had, “My Luna!” He yelled, “The darkness that we faced inside the carven is also part of this.” He paused for a moment and then continued. “The ritual that we stopped, was aimed at weakening the barriers, it was to help prepare for the return and freedom of this entity.” We all looked at one another, as listened to what he had to say, Yara nodded her head, as she was the one who understood him the most.As he conveyed his message, it became clearer and more clear to us, we now had a full understanding of what was going on.After he Kofi finished speaking, the vision faded, and we were all struck with a feeling of incoming doom, we knew that something would happen. The entity that made that howl was not just a threat, to our pack.It would cause mayhem if unleashed, and it was a threat to the balance of all life. Such a creature was evil and malevolent, on no account should it be left to get its
Exalia’s PoV When talking about the howl that pierced the night, one could describe it as being unlike any other howl or sound that had ever been heard as a howl.It sounded to scary and eerie, and anyone who was not a supernatural could have become deaf after listening to it, because it was so loud.Thanks to our werewolf nature and abilities, we did not become deaf as a result of the loud howl, but we were rather terrified and worried about it’s origin and intentions. Alex and I were both werewolves, and we knew the sounds of the howls of our fellow werewolves, this one was totally different. This particular howl came with a feeling of something ancient, it was like something out of the natural, was being summoned.Maybe a ghost or a spirit or something of such sort.“Do you think it’s a ghost or something?” I asked Alex, trying to hear his opinion. “ I don’t know if it’s a ghost, and I don’t know what it is, but what I’m sure is that It’s unlike anything I have ever heard in my
