Adriana pov"Ladies and gentlemen, the second round is about to begin," Carmen announced as the competitors gathered around, Alpha Abel's hopefully gaze was still focused on me, "So what do you say? Are you going to join my team for the second round?" Alpha Abel asked as his amused gaze focused on me"Are we meant to be in teams?" I asked as I moved my gaze to Carmen, who also had an amused expression on his face"Listen to the announcements first, and Abel, don't pester the girl," Carmen said as Abel grumbled some incoherent words, I managed to hear some of what he said and it went like this 'mind your business' then the rest was gibberish."Go on and make the announcements, and stop annoying me," Abel said to Carmen, his annoyance evident in his tone "Fine, fine. Quit being so grumpy," Carmen retorted before making his way to the stage to outline the rules for the second category."Such an annoying brat," Abel muttered quietly as our focus shifted to Carmen, who was about to start
Dereka povI watched as Alpha Abel walked over to the microphone, and my heart raced in my chest with nervous anticipation. He began to recite the words of the poem I had written down, this poem was personal, it was about my life and how I was thrown away by Tristan, my mate, the man who was supposed to love and cherish me. Well, it doesn't matter now, I don't need him, I can fend for myself and the baby growing inside me.As I listened to the words from Alpha Abel's lips, for a moment, the world seemed to fade away, leaving only the sound of his voice echoing my words."In love's peaceful embrace, I stayed, under the sun, in tales we'd tell, Yet fate, a cruel and fickle friend, With reckless hands, I did rend and rend.Tossed aside, I stood, betrayed, By love's cruel game, a pawn dismayed. The one I cherished, once so near, now lost to me, a soul plain.Like leaves in autumn's swirling breeze, I found myself alone with ease, cast off, discarded, left to mourn, the love I held, now fi
AdrianaAs the final contestant finished saying their poem, Alpha Carmen left us and walked up to the stage to address the remaining contestants that participated in the second category."Hello, everyone," Alpha Carmen began, his voice commanding attention. "I'm pleased to see you've all made it this far. But, rules are rules, and only five teams will proceed to the last and final round.""He should just rip off the band-aid instead of stringing them along," remarked Alpha Abel, observing Carmen's announcements."The first team exiting or I rather say being disqualified from the competition is the Blood claw team due to their disruption during the challenge," Carmen declared, the room buzzing with murmurs filled the air."That's not fair. Why should I be punished for that idiot's mistake? " That man from before teammate said as he glared at Alpha Carmen,"Question: Did you try to stop him when he was disrespecting Alpha Abel and his fellow contestant Adriana?" Alpha Carmen questioned,
Adriana Before Alpha Carmen could be reached, Derek swiftly disarmed him. "You should have just gone quietly," Alpha Carmen remarked, turning towards Tyler. "Get him out of my sight.""Yes, Alpha," Derek complied, seizing Tyler by the neck and dragging him away, kicking and screaming."Now that the drama's settled, and given our lateness, I'll announce the teams moving to the final round," Alpha Carmen stated, prompting murmurs in the room."I hope we make it. Winning is crucial for me," I muttered, catching Alpha Abel's gaze as he turned towards me. "Why?" he inquired, curiosity evident. I couldn't reveal I fled from an abusive mate while pregnant and penniless. So, I crafted a lie, "I need the money to find a new pack to settle into.""Oh, Alpha Carmen might be in need of a secretary. You could inquire if the position's available," Alpha Abel suggested, offering a slight smile."Thank you, I will," I replied as attention shifted back to Alpha Carmen. He began announcing the quali
Adriana "Why is it always a fight with you?" One of the contestants asked as they both glared at Alpha Carmen "My pack, my rules," Alpha Carmen said as his grin widened, "So are you going to accept, or you both will just leave right now?""Give us time to think," one of the contestants said "You don't have all the time in the world because the next round starts in twenty minutes, so time is ticking" Alpha Carmen said as he used his fingers to mimic a ticking clock, "tick tock, tick tock, tick tock""Stop rushing us," Tyler said as he glared af Alpha Carmen before his gaze moved to his partner"Well, I don't care, make a decision," Alpha Carmen said, his voice slightly raised as he glared at the top idiots who were making a complete fool of themselves "The decisions made," declared the man who'd originally challenged Alpha Carmen, while his partner gaped at him in disbelief."We haven't decided anything! What on earth are you saying?" Tyler demanded, his anger shifting to his partn
Third person pov As we got to the area, everyone was already gathering around for the third and final category of the competition, Adriana's heart raised at the very thought, she never knew she would have gone this far, hopefully if there was a chance of her winning, she hoped it would be possible because she really needed the money for her and her unborn child.It was as if Alpha Abel sensed her worries, his gaze fell on her, and he gave her a comforting smile and asked, "What is wrong, Adriana?""Alpha Abel, oh it's nothing," Adriana began, her voice tinged with hesitation, "Try again, you look as pale as a sheet," Alpha Abel stopped as he turned to face me, causing Alpha Carmen to stop to"What's up, with you guys?" Alpha Carmen asked as his gaze fell on me too"Something is up with Adriana," Alpha Abel replied. "Now both of them were staring at Adriana, concern evident in their eyes"What's going on, Adriana? You can talk to us, " Alpha Carmen said, giving her a comforting smile
Adriana "Take it easy, Adriana," Alpha Carmen advised, his voice filled with concern. "Do you need us to call for some medical assistance?"Adriana shook her head gently, trying to regain her composure. "I just need a moment. I'll be fine," she assured them, the colour slowly returning to her face as the dizziness subsided."Maybe you should sit for a while, just in case," Alpha Abel suggested, guiding Adriana to a nearby chair because if he let her go, she might fall. "Just take deep breaths.""Thank you, both of you," Adriana said, gratefully sinking into the seat. "I don't know what came over me. I think I feel a bit better now. You guys don't need to worry. ""That's what you said before, and you almost passed out, just take your time," Alpha Carmen said to her, placing a hand on Adriana's shoulder. "We'll stay with you until you're feeling completely alright. Thank the moon goddess that the competition is over"Adriana took a few deep breaths, her dizziness gradually fading by t
Tristan povA few days later…."Sir, we've searched the entire territory. There's no sign of Adriana," one of my men reported.My fists clenched at my sides, my jaw tightening in frustration. "What do you mean 'no sign'?" I growled, barely containing the anger brewing within me."She's just... gone, sir. Nowhere to be seen," he replied, his voice tinged with concern."Where could she have gone? Without them noticing her at the border, she is just one woman and a team of highly trained soldiers can't find her" i said my voice slightly raised causing all of them to flinch back in fear as they tried to focus their gaze on me"Sir we have searched the whole territory, and they're no traces of her, it is like she just vanished or she managed to escape the border but that's highly unlikely, the security at the border is quite strict" the leader of the group explained and I felt like ripping his head off because he was just spouting out nonsense that isn't getting me closer to finding Adrian
On my way back, I felt extremely happy. I felt happy because Adriana proved to me that not everything can and should be solved with violence and seeing the results made me love her the more.“Garagan,” I called.“Yes alpha.” He replied.“Go assemble every single wolf in the pack to the fields and when you're done with that, bring some wolves with you to get the guillotine.” I said.“Alpha are you…” he said in surprise.“Exactly,” I replied with a smile. “He will lose his life today. I'm tired of him.” I replied.“Of course alpha.” He replied before walking away.As he walked away, I led him to the said field and waited for everyone under the moonlight.An hour later, every single wolf in my pack gathered before me with Lane who at this point was no longer an alpha bound by chains laced with wolfsbane and dumped by the side.A couple of minutes later, Garagan arrived alongside some other wolves with pieces of the guillotine which he began assembling. Seeing as everyone was gathered, I
Alpha Tristan POV“Have you given them the instructions?” Adriana asked as she folded one of Benjamin's clothes into his box.“Yes I have.” I replied.“Now we wait.” She said with a charming smile.“I don't know what I'll do if Alpha Lane is actually plotting against me.” I said with a sigh.“Honestly, I feel like you should kill him.” She replied.Narrowing my eyes at her, “that is so unlike you.” I said. “I was expecting you'll say I should at most throw him in jail or something similar.” I replied.“Normally, I'd say that but Alpha Lane has always gone against you every chance he got and if you throw him in jail only to release him later, there's no chance he'll change so I feel you should get rid of him now.” She said. “What's that thing you said recently?” She asked. “Aha! I've remembered, you said something about cutting of a tumor?” She said.“Alpha Lane is a tumor and until you cut him off, he'll continue being a problem for you and all of us.”“That is true.” I said with a no
Bolton POVSeeing as the situation was developing in a direction that wasn't convenient for me, I turned around and ran with all my might, breaking down my door, I ran upstreet with my destination being Alpha Lane's pack.“To think those idiots will turn themselves against me.” I said in anger. “I made them look more important than they actually are and they dare turn against me? Humph! After I inform Alpha Lane about this, he'll come back with me and let those idiots understand who's backing me.” I said.“I can't wait to see the looks of surprise on their faces when they see him.” I said with a look of glee on my face.Running with all my might with my body cutting through the woods, I arrived at the outskirts of Alpha Lane's pack grounds only to be stopped by two wolves.“Who are you?” He asked jumping down in front of me. “State your business and who you're looking for.” He said with his eyes glaring at me in hostility.“I am Bolton and I am under the direct command of Alpha Lane.”
Bolton POVIt had been three days since I made my demands and with me getting an unexpected reply. I hadn't expected for the alpha to agree honestly and I couldn't help but think that this was some sort of trap. But after three days, today was the D-day and so far, nothing out of the ordinary had haoiand I couldn't help but think maybe I was just being paranoid. Walking into my modest closet, I put on a couple of modest looking clothes which could barely qualify as a suit due to it's thread bare nature and faded colour.“I guess this will have to do.” I said to myself as I shrugged while staring at myself through the mirror.“BAM, BAM, BAM.” a knocking sound came from my door.“Who on earth is banging on my door like this?” I shouted in anger as I walked towards the door. Opening it, I saw some of the slaves before me in their threadbare clothes, with their stoic faces filled with displeasure.“What seems to be the problem?” I asked, staring at them.“Won't you let us come in first?”
Alpha Tristan POV“That concludes the report for this month.” Maxion said as he shut the book in his hand.I was in my throne room with Maxion by my side as he finished his narration of our finances for that month. This usually happens once in a month so we could know how good or how bad the economy of my pack is.“So production has been down by two percent due to the slaves rebellion?” I asked.“Yes alpha.” Maxion replied with a displeased expression on his face. “Frankly, I'm surprised you haven't sent those annoyances to meet their maker.” He said.“I'm actually more surprised than you are.” I replied with a sigh. “If not for some circumstances, that's exactly what I would've done and this nonsense will be over.” I replied.“So if you don't mind me asking, what exactly is stopping?” He asked.“The exact quesy should be who is stopping me.” I replied.“Let me guess…” he said with a smile. “Adriana?” He asked.“Who else?” I retorted. “When I mentioned it, you need to see how opposed
Alpha Tristan POVHearing Adriana's theory brought up the uncomfortable feeling of rage and annoyance. I didn't know which one was worse, the fact that he lied or the fact that I had a foreign entity whose origins I couldn't trace but regardless of the reason, I knew that person was a security risk.Standing up to go look for that guy, I got stopped by Adriana.“No, wait?” She said, holding my arms. “You just can't go out guns blazing to catch that guy.” She said.“And why not?” I asked with barely concealed rage.“Because we do not know the reason that guy is here or why he lied.” She replied.“We will know that when I grab his sorry ass.” I said in annoyance.“I know that.” Adriana said. “But I also know that he might not be working alone so if you go there in an attempt to apprehend him, the slaves might see it as a form of intimidation and might react badly.” She said.“Then I'll show them their place.” I replied in anger.“No, you will not!” Adriana replied, get voice raised. “We
Alpha Lane POV“Oohh!” A lady moaned as I played with her breast while she squirmed beside me. I was sitting down on my sofa in my living room with two naked ladies by my side and one on the floor sucking my shaft.The ladies beside me peppered me with kisses while I played with their bodies, slapping their asses and pinching their nipples much to their delight.“This is how I am supposed to live.” I said with a huge smile on my face.“Yes alpha.” The ladies replied in a seductive tone.As they said that, I heard the sound of my door opening abruptly and I saw Ingrid walking inside.“How many times will I have to tell you Ingrid, no disturbances when I am having fun?” I said with rage in my chest. “Do you need to be punished before you understand that?” I asked.“Alpha, I have urgent news.” She replied. “If it wasn't urgent, I wouldn't have disturbed you.” She added.“Are you sure?” I asked while the girl below me made slurping sounds with her tongue.“Definitely Alpha.” She said with
Alpha Tristan POVHaving to deal with people who do not know their place can be extremely annoying. Talking to them, pretending that you understand them and considering their wellbeing is so frustrating that sometimes I feel that it'll be better if they ceased to exist.With that being said, I and my subordinates couldn't agree on what should be done to these slaves that didn't seem to know their place and even though I wanted nothing more than to kill every single one of them, but whenever those murderous thoughts surface in my heart, I remember the face of the woman I love and the thought of her disapproving gaze on me is enough to halt all murderous thoughts.Sighing in exhaustion, I pushed open the door to my room and was met with the figure of Adriana lying face up on the bed with Grace standing obediently by her side.“Adriana, can I talk to you?” I asked with a sigh escaping my lips“Excuse me Alpha, Luna.” Grace said with a bow before walking out of the door.“Of course you ca
Adriana POVToday was just like every other boring day in the fountain of light pack. “Wonder where Tristan is?” I asked with my eyes staring into the morning sky.It was nine AM in the morning and I had gone out for a morning stroll with my child and Grace with me. Ever since the kidnapping incident, everything had been pretty much the same everyday but I had noticed that Grace kept to herself more than usual. I would've asked her about it but feeling that it had to do with the fact that she got kidnapped with my baby, I kept quiet and decided to wait for when she is ready to talk about it.“I…I feel the…the alpha is busy.” Grace stammered in response.“Hm.” I said. “That much is to be expected.” I replied.“What'd you think he is currently doing?” I asked as I played peek-a-boo with my son Benjamin.“I…I am…not sure but…I …think he should…be busy.” She stammered.Hearing the way she was talking, I frowned. “Grace?” I called.“Yes Luna.” She answered.“I don't know how you've been fe
