Being an alpha werewolf who couldn't fully tap into her full alpha potentials still leaves you as an alpha right? Wrong. It leaves you nowhere, not even as a wolf. Raine black was the youngest daughter of the alpha of the night pack. She was a defective wolf. her defect could have stemmed from her origin, but nothing to be too sure about. The rest of her family hated her for her defect and hid her like she was some dirty secret. Raine knew deep within her she was a wolf but there was no way to prove it if she didn't wolf out. Just as a betrayal threatened to tear her apart, she got the chance of her life. The chance to prove that she was more than a defective wolf. The chance to prove that she could be something more. Nikolai Knight was the alpha of the Zicron pack. An alliance with another alpha brought him face to face with a sensual red headed sin who seemed oblivious to the appeal she held. All his life, Nikolai prided himself in his ability to not feel and to remain level headed. But the red head threatened to break down his walls and year down all the secrets he worked hard at burying. As much as Nikolai would love to ignore her, his desire to protect her from her own pack and others who may want to harm her seemed to prevail over other emotions and he must fight to maintain his icy nature, as well as others who aimed to destroy his pack. No one, not even a little red head could stand in his way.
View MoreRaine stepped out of the pack house looking confused. Nikolai leaned on his car with Gabe by his side and watched the emotions flickering across her face. He couldn't help himself and the way he stared at her.Her freckles made her all the more cute as she approached. His wolf pranced around in happiness. The damn animal had some serious they'd need to work out."If you stare harder, maybe time would become frozen and give you two the chance you need." Gabe's voice sarcastically droned next to him. Nikolai rolled his eyes and averted his gaze."She's really beautiful, Gabe. All that red hair. I want...""She's an omega." Gabe cut him off.Nikolai squared his shoulders and glared at his best friend."And I am alpha." He fired back."Exactly my point. You are alpha. Not just any other alpha. You are the alpha. The most powerful across the packs. You can't degrade your position because of a common omega.""What are you saying, Gabe? She's beautiful, I never said I wanted to have her as
Nikolai's POVNikolai was soaked in orange juice and dripping wet. But that wasn't his problem. His major concern was the look on her face when Tyla yelled seventy strokes of the whip. He's not one to shy away from mentoring out punishments to people. After all, she was here as punishment for what her pack did.But there was something about her that made him want to protect her. Maybe it was the cite freckles dotting her face, or the innocent green eyes looking down dejectedly. He couldn't place why she invoked his need to protect.Slowly, Nikolai stood up and wiped his face. He heard her gasp behind him as he unfolded his full length. He turned to her and realized he still didn't know her name. The girl who had captured his attention at first glance."What are you called?" he asked."Raine." She squeaked still looking down. Nikolai wished she would raise her head so he could look into the emeralds she wore as eyes."Come with me." He ordered.Nikolai didn't miss the triumphant smile
The next morning, Raine's eyes flickered open. The sun was already sitting proudly, very high up in the sky. Chatter and conversation carried on around her. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and groggy and sat up.A huge chime came from the wall opposite and she slowly looked up at the giant grandfather clock. The time read seven am.Raine's eyes bulge out of its sockets at the sight. A distinct voice rang somewhere in the back of her head reminding her that she should have been down in the kitchen an hour ago.She scrambled out of bed but her body groaned at the movement. Everywhere was sore and aching as a result of the brutal assault she received yesterday coupled with the car journey that brought her to the Zircon pack.It seemed like the pain condensed overnight. She winced grabbed a change of clothes and located the bathroom. She got lost a couple of times but was able to find her way in the end.The queue that greeted her in front of the bathroom stalls made her almost cry. There we
The outline of the Zircon pack was different and unlike anything, Raine had ever seen before. She looked around in wonder and amazement, marveling, and in awe of the territory. Her earlier discretion lay forgotten as she took in the beauty all around.Atticus opened the car door and got out. Raine followed suit wincing at the discomfort and pain of moving with all the sores marring her body.Two wolves rushed out of what she guessed was the pack house and shook hands with Atticus. None of them smiled and Raine's heart dropped further as she thought of more problems arising because of her arrival. "Come on," Atticus guided her into the house as they followed the wolves that came out to greet them. They opened the door and went in.Raine gasped in surprise. An audience was waiting for them. She hadn't been prepared to have them welcome her. They probably thought her father was sending some high-profile wolf as a symbol of the peace treaty. Her stomach dropped further again knowing she
"You are going to the Zircon pack and alpha Nikolai is to do with you as he wishes. A peace treaty has already been agreed on and you need to go to pay for your sins and to prevent the impending war he has been hanging over our heads." Tiki announced with a flat face.Raine's eyes widened at his words. When she had been summoned to come before the council and apologize for sabotaging the moon procession and for putting the lack in danger, she didn't expect that a punishment would come with it. And not just any punishment, she was being sold off as a slave."The zircon pack?" she squeaked."Did I stutter?" Tiki asked glaring murderously at her."You brought this upon yourself. To make matters worse, you even tried to run away. Since you wanted to leave the pack so much, I'm giving you the opportunity."Raine fell to her knees in tears."Father, please. Don't send me away. I'll try better from now onwards." She implored Tiki and the rest of the council but no one paid her any heed. She
Raine's POVTiki has been livid and in a funky mood for about two days now. Everyone seemed to have forgotten about Raine's blunder on the day of the moon dance. She tried to keep herself as invisible as possible. Carrying out her chores and doing everything she could think of to not get in trouble. She didn't want to shoulder the blame for ruining the moon dance and also jeopardizing the pack's safety. But she should have known that there was no way her family would have left her alone.On this particular day, Raine woke up at the crack of dawn. Cold wind billowed outside her window and ring bits of it seeped into her skin. She didn't have a wolf to keep her warm and so her teeth chattered on impact.She grabbed a fur jacket from where it hung on the door and draped it across her shoulders. She looked at the time. It was just some minutes past six. She groaned in frustration knowing she had to be fast with her chores before Shania got up. Else she would be punished for waking late.H
Nikolai's POVEverything seemed to happen at once. Wolves rushed towards one particular girl with one intention. To seize her as their alpha instructed.At the same time, an explosion went off right in front of Nikolai knocking him backward and throwing the entire crusade into chaos.Nikolai's beta wolves and enforcers rushed forward to protect him from the heat of the explosion and the falling debris. No one understood what was happening. "What is going on?" Tiki questioned. "What the hell is happening?" No one paid him heed. Everyone ran along trying to get away from the source of the explosion in case of a second attack."Stand your ground, wolves of the night pack!" Tiki bellowed. Everyone halted unable to resist an alpha's direct command."This was an assassination plot to eliminate Nikolai." Gabe deadpanned. He was Nikolai's beta and second in command. He flanked Nikolai breathing heavily both in anger and exertion.Tiki blanched from the accusation. "You can't believe that's
Cries and murmurs erupted from the crowd. Raine knew she was in for more trouble than she could have ever imagined. "Now is not the time to be paranoid." Tiki bellowed. The sound of his voice quietened the crowd. Raine couldn't bring herself to look up. She could already imagine the death glares directed at her.Her body shivered from fear of the unknown. Sabotaging a moon offering is an offense only punishable by death. Deep down she knew her family would seize the opportunity to get rid of her."The goddess has rejected us. We should offer the perpetrator to attain forgiveness!" An old wolf cried. Raine knew at once that it was old man Zerkes. She had been sent to attend to him during one of his feral episodes. She had sedated him and he didn't like it. Since then, he's had it out for her."Killing the moon won't solve anything," Atticus stated from the crowd. "We should invite the priestess to atone on our behalf."Another uproar went up. The pack members didn't like the idea of
Shocked gasps and murmurs spread through the entire pack at once. Everything seemed to occur in slow motion.A chill spread through the crowd as Raine lay on the floor with her face planted to the ground. She couldn't bring herself to get up. A throbbing pain in her knee forced her to sit up and nurse the scraped knee. A hush followed and whispers started to spread all over the pack members. The beta who had tripped rushed to her side with an apology in his eyes, trying to help her up.“Evil has graced us!” someone yelled. Raine looked towards the voice to see an old man glaring murderously at her. At times like this, she wished she had her father's wisdom, Shania's fearlessness, or Atticus' strength. She would even take Bellona's deception and bravery if it would get her out of this situation. She knew how disgraceful her fall was. Her family hid her like a plague away from others, trying to mask her defect. Not because they loved her and wanted to protect her. It was simply becau
Raine's PovRaine walked through the door of her father’s house and the creak of the hinges sent a shiver down her spines. Her senses heightened at once and her nostrils flared. Something was not right, and she could sense it.Her father, Alpha Tiki, had gone on an expedition whose details they didn’t bother to leave with her because she was defective. Of course, they had left her behind with her sister, while the rest of the wolves went on the hunt.The sound of Raine's sister shouting orders to the servants was absent, even though it's usually loud and high-pitched. Or at least, she should have been here in the sitting room, waiting for her arrival.But none was the case. Everywhere was silent. Raine couldn’t help but think of the calm before the storm.Knowing the tragedy that would befall her if she didn’t go to report to her sister about her trip to the mall, she headed straight to her room to give a briefing.There were voices. Muffled voices. Raine could hear the distinct pitch...
