Kayah’s Point of viewI rolled over, reaching for the other side of the bed but felt no one. I groggily opened my eyes and propped myself up in one elbow, stared blankly down at the blanket over me as I tried to clear the cobwebs from my head.The clock on the night table said it was after nine, my scrutiny said she was all alone in the room.It was to be expected, Seven was a King who had a lot of duties but it still hurts as he couldn’t make time for me. Besides the clock was a glass of water and I reached out to get it. I gulped down half a glass, partly because I was thirsty and partly to kick start my brain. I hissed loudly as I felt how swollen my lips were. “Pervert!” I glared at the glass like it was Seven. Of course, I knew who the culprit was and I couldn’t deny how giddy and flustered I felt.I had just put down the glass and was trying to piece together the event of the early hours in the morning, when the door opened and Cassandra stepped in. “You are awake, Good.” Sh
Kayah’s Point of ViewThe castle shifted into a magical hall for my coronation. Seven’s people did their utmost best to turn the dark castle into something out of fairy tales. Instead of its usual black, Seven finally agreed to temporarily change the paint into blue and white just for tonight. My gown was a royal blue ball gown. It was the same gown that was passed down from generations. The original design was preserved and never altered. It was seemingly the gown adjusted to fit the Queens of generations. Cassandra awed at my make-up and gown.“Oh my gosh, my lady, you looked so stunning,” she praised me. I thanked her and let her lead me to the main hall of coronation.“Cass, you can leave me here. I’ll be okay,” I said once we reached the hall where I’ll descend using a stair. Sabrina’s parents, the Alpha and Luna arrived at exactly seven in the evening Rom trailing behind them through the threshold. King Seven greeted them all with a smile. I was there hiding as I watched th
Kayah’s Point of ViewNot only did Seven send me a curious look but his sister Kelsey was there too. She was curious as her brother. She has her hawk- eye pasted on me.Few days before the coronation.“And you should know better than to speak to me in that manner,” I retorted sharply. It was obvious that Kelsey didn’t like me or even want me around so there was no need to be polite with her.Kelsey was taken aback by the sharp response from me but Kelsey didn’t stop there.She sneered. “Who do you think you are? Do you think that you can just show up and expect everyone to listen to your whims?”“Even if you don’t accept me as your Queen, you shouldn’t forget that I am also an important wolf,” I slowly turned around, I caught a glimpse of a few guards watching them, including Ron. “And do you know what having a healer title means? It means bow down.” I moved so fast that Kelsey didn’t have time to react, before she could come to her senses, I slapped her, kicked her legs thereby ca
Kayah’s Point of View“I hereby present to you the new Queen of Rogue Kingdom, her majesty, Sabrina Moonhalf. All will address her accordingly. Those who will disrespect her will face death as punishment.”The tiara on my head was changed into a blue sapphire laced crown. It wasn’t as big as Seven’s but it held the title that every she-wolves wanted. The crown that was supposed to be Sabrina’s. “Hail the new Queen! This will strengthen the relationship of my kingdom and the Queen’s pack,” Seven said as he held my hand and led me before all the rogues and Sabrina’s pack. “I agreed!” Alpha William raised his wine glass to everyone. “My daughter, the last healer, is the pride of my pack. It is natural she’ll be mated and marry the Highness. “We stayed neutral for a long time and it is a common gesture to support the side where my daughter was mated.”The party went on and I requested Seven to let me rest for a while in a private room. I decided to close my eyes and put everything behin
Seven’s point of View“You know, give her the benefit of doubt,” Sebastian, my best friend said. He was the captain of my offensive warriors. The man went out of his way to come here instead of going home? I stood up, pushing my chair back and walked around my mahogany table. I sat at the ledge of the table and pursed my lips."And?"“Maybe your conclusion about her is true. That she’s someone else.”I roled my eyes. “So can you tell me why does she look like Sabrina?”Sebastian drank on his glass. “Then maybe she has an amnesia or something.”“Maybe. But what are you doing here?”Sebastian said nothing. His adam's apple bobbed slowly as he swallowed down his nerves. His eyes immediately took refuge at the ground. His fists were clenched and his jaw was tightened. The papers would have to wait. It appears to me that my best friend here was in trouble. “Remember Austine?” he asked me. “How can I not remember him when I killed his father?”"And... I think you should send him away
Kayah’s Point of View“Tell Me Who You Are!” Seven yelled at me. He was in his half werewolf appearance, something only a rogue could do. “Who are you, pretender?His sharp claw ripped through my stomach, opening my skin as the brooding he was smiling at me. The sinister look in his eyes forced a shiver to leave my body. Blood trickled down my stomach, the thick drops diverting my attention from the pain, but only momentarily. I knew I'd heal, but the pain was still as harsh as ever. "You need to know that I'm not messing around. Where is the real Sabrin?." He smirked at me, falling over his words. I knew he was somewhat intoxicated. Deciding that silence would be my best tactic, I backed away from him slowly. Trying to convey peace with my eyes, hoping for some humane part inside of him. Just as he'd about to thrust his claws, a snicker came from behind and a scream left my lips as my thigh was sliced open from behind. A woman walked into my line of sight. It was Kelsey! She wa
The chattering between the rogues was buzzing and kept my spirits up during this breakfast. Seven had been occupied, not saying anything to me at all, which forced me to converse with Cassandra. I'd learned a lot though...According to her, having a Queen would strengthen a Kingdom and a Queen that was a healer was a plus. She also said that a healer is a must since it could heal the ‘savage’ side of the King.“Savage?”“Oh, you never heard of it, my Queen?” Cassandra asked confusedly.“Uhm no?”Cassandra looked at me as if she couldn’t believe what she had heard.“Are you playing a prank on me, your majesty?”I looked at her confusedly.“Why would I play a prank on you? I was just asking,” I said.“Uhm, you were the one who told our King that you don’t want to do anything about her Savage part. You told him that he could go to hell. You hated him so much that you kept on rejecting his proposal.”Damn…“I-I did?” I said as if I didn’t remember what she was saying but the truth was, I
Kayah’s Point of View"It really isn't that hard, Sabrina." A humored voice interrupted my struggle.Puffing out a frustrated breath. "You can see me struggling, therefore it IS hard. Stop pissing me off, Seven."I was helping Lilly with the chores around the house, anything to rid myself of the boredom of being here for an entire day with nothing to do. I’m used to working anyway. Right now I was cleaning the windows in Seven and I’s bedroom, but it was almost impossible to get it without those ugly ass lines. Seven had apparently heard my frustrated grunting every time I got it wrong and decided to come in here and piss me off."You're struggling because you're horrible at it. You’re a sheltered wolf, remember? I was still wondering how you learned cooking and doing some chores." Once again a cocky remark which made me nervous again.“People do change,” I told him and winked. “To be able to serve you, Your Highness,” I added dropping the equipment on the floor like a child.I heard
Axel’s Point of ViewLancelette was what most people pictured when they thought of a warrior with an ability to talk to the Moon Goddess. A priestess if you call it. Taller than normal she-wolf and perfect shoulders made to worship the Goddess. Her slightly muscled arms told a tale of strength and her scars of survival. Like all weres, she did not scar easily so the fact that she had any showed she had survived what few could. She has been alive longer than my father and yet her appearance never changed for she claimed she saw the Goddess herself. She was favored. She wore a blank face, her eyes alert and her movements precise and minimal. "Alphas." He bowed to the room and then turned to face my father. "How may I serve you.""Lancelette." My father acknowledged. "We need your ability to reveal the truth of someone."There was a slight pause before she gave a firm nod. We all knew Lancelette used her gift.to judge someone whether they were good or bad. Though the Shadow's End pack
Axel’s Point of View"Axel," my mother's sister chirped in. "We all want what's best for you."Anger rose up inside me, a living thing like nothing I had ever felt before. I had always been an easygoing guy and couldn't remember the last time he had been angry. Now I felt nothing but anger. Blood rushed to my head and I saw red, my wolf rose and I was sure it showed in his eyes."And the best for me is to spend the next century or more living in hell?" Shaking my head, I turned to walk out."Axel!" My father's voice was a command, for all it was quiet. Despite retiring, he still has the power to command me.I didn't want to listen, but for all my anger this was my father and the Alpha before me. Biting my teeth, I turned to face him. He had been quiet all this time listening, whatever he had to say though I would not listen if it had anything to do with abandoning my mate. That I would never do."We are not finished here,” he stated. "You will not disrespect us by walking out.”Still
Axel’s Point of ViewI ran my hand through my hair and sighed. To think all I had been looking forward to a dull night and spent the night sleeping. Now he had a mate who was looking for the slightest reason to run for the hills. A mate who was pregnant and scared.Never in my wildest dream that she’ll be here, running away from Seven. At first I think she was Sabrina, the infamous healer but now I know she’s someone else. And now that she’s here, there’s no turning back. She was an enigma as was her friend and aside from the pull of mates I found her intriguing. Life, I suspected, would never be dull with her. I wasn’t even surprised by my non-reaction to her pregnancy. Most wolves would have resented her unborn child, maybe even demanded she terminate her pregnancy but I hadn't even thought about that.She had actually had the guts to challenge my Uncle Von and my highbreed cousin, one of the most feared Alphas out there. That took guts and had impressed the heck out of him. Not so
Kayah’s Point of ViewI still had doubts about putting myself at the mercy of the pack. I still thought the whole pack system was a great evil considering my old pack but circumstances were out of my hands. After giving my trust to the system all my life, never questioning that trust had been betrayed in an instant. I would rather not make the same mistake twice or return to the Rogue side…I wondered though what other alternatives there might be. It was all ending a feral. No one survived long and succumbed to their wolves. Ferals preyed upon humans and were alike. They would often hunt omegas to breed on taking what they would with little regard for the damage they caused. Unaligned wolves were particularly vulnerable to them but the packs were no better.They had at best loyalty to their own and did not treat the occasional unaligned wolf with any compassion. While the ferals just killed them on sight. The only thing I could think of was that we were both very tired. The surrou
Kayah’s Point of View“You have a beautiful name.”When he smiled again I wanted to punch him, just so that I could stop feeling for butterflies. Surely if he had fewer teeth his smile would stop being so perfect and melting my brain cells."I'm Axel.""Am I supposed to say 'it's a pleasure meeting you'?" I asked, wanting to burst his good mood just so he could show his true colours and how ruthless he was.Another smile, I snorted and he laughed. "Yes, finding a mate is a pleasure," he shot me a teasing grin. "Especially a mate like me."I had to be coming down with something. The fluttering in my heart and stomach could not be normal. Nor was the heat that melted my limbs so that I had to consciously lock my legs to keep on standing.He held out his hand to her. "Come and meet my mother,” He invited.A mother who would be the former Luna, who would be able to override his apparent decision to keep me as his mate. What mother would want his son saddled with me? I couldn't decide i
Kayah’s Point of View"Are all Alphas the same as you?”The man before me claimed that he was my mate. The words had left my mind when I accepted Seven and out of nowhere, I had a mate and none other than the Demon Alpha where killing was nothing for him. I hadn't thought he would stand there coolly regarding me as if we were having freaking morning tea or something. In fact, I never expected things like this. “You knew we had a mate?” I asked my wolf. “Yes.”“Since when?”“During the mating ball. I already met him but I chose Seven,” she replied as if this demon Alpha never interested her. “How dare you!? How dare you choose someone who was never ours!”“I chose someone who can protect us!”“And our mate can’t? Look, I could have the real me with him. I don’t have to pretend like someone else. “He’s- ugh forget it.”“You put us in danger! Look what happened to us! We’re like a fugitive running away from the most dangerous wolf in the world!”“Okay whatever. My mistakes. I'll let
Axel’s Point of ViewI didn’t want to go hunt for the invading ferals, but I hadn't been given a choice. Joros isn't home yet from the western border of my lands. I’m not really in the mood of going out since the encounter between me and the Rogue king, not to mention it was my birthday, damn it.I shouldn't have to spend the night hunting good-for-nothing wolves who enjoyed preying on decent Weres. But as the alpha, the protection of the pack was my duty.There was a party in my honour as my mom said. She invited plenty of unmated she-wolves from all over who had come hoping to be the Luna of the pack. Many of them were willing to go to second or third base with me. But none of that excites me. The thing that excited me was to find my mate. I just want to rest and be alone but my parents left me no choice. My gamma and delta would be hosting my party while I was stuck hunting some scrawny ferals. Surely the thirty warriors going to the hunt did not need me, especially with my capabl
Axel’s Point of ViewSince the day I lost my mate to the Rogue King, I lost the will to live. My people suggested that I take another Luna. I told him that the Rogue King took my mate and that I couldn’t do anything about it. I fought hard but what puzzled me most was that she never recognized me. It was odd.“Brother, Dad wanted to tell you not to forget your own birthday. You have been coping inside your office,” my brother Isaac said as he entered my office without knocking. If he was someone else, he’d already be dead. "You worry yourself more than I worry for you, Isaac. I'll be fine. I can take care of myself."“Mom said they’ll celebrate your twenty-eight birthday tomorrow.”“I don’t need a birthday, okay? I’m fine. Go and take care of the young warriors,” I replied, without sparing him a glance. “Brother-”“I’m okay, okay? You don't have to worry.”With one last try to convince me, I let Isaac walk away and watched as he started to train the young wolves.It should be Joros
Kayah’s Point of View“I’m taking you to the most trusted pack,” Lisa told me after a week of being together. My condition has worsened. According to her, I needed medical attention since I was carrying a rogue’s heir.She said the rogue's babies were special. They will drain their mother’s life force if not monitored. “Okay,” I replied and we started our journey as we evaded Seven’s keen eyes. One night as we were approaching the pack that Lisa told me, we were ambushed by hungry Ferals. There were four of them and there were only two of us. I knew Lisa was capable but I’m not sure if I could protect myself and the baby. “Be careful, Kayah,” Lisa warned me as she lunged against the feral who was going against her.One of the ferals stepped closer to me as he bore his canines on me and leapt to attack me. I bared my canines at him in anger as I punched the wolf. It sent him flying a good distance from me. I thank Seven for teaching me how to fight and those restless training. The
