Wanted By The Alphas Anger
ALPHA RAGAS' POV.It was a little difficult to believe Lorrie and I were finally married to each other. She was officially my Luna.All through the night, we made love to each other, and I tried hard to hide my dissatisfaction. I didn't have any feelings for Lorrie. How had we come that far? I ought to have ended things with her a month ago, but instead, I had let myself get emotional. I had given her father the wish he wanted, which was to see his daughter married, instead of fulfilling my own wish of having Athena by my side. It was all messed up. Why didn't I do it back then?How was I to let Lorrie know I had no feelings for her when we were already married? That would be too hard to do. I still had to find Athena. I had paused my findings on her, so I could concentrate on my business trip, but now that I was back, I needed to continue with it. As for Lorrie, I would find a way around the marriage because I couldn't let Athena slip out of hands once more when I found her.“Whe

OCTAVIA'S POV.Things had become a little steady ever since Athena left. I was having the best time of my life, and everyone respected me more, since there was no one to share the respect with me. I had things going in the right order they ought to go, and I shopped almost daily. Alpha Jeremy and I were beginning to make serious preparations for our wedding ceremony, and he had put me in charge of managing the finance for his companies. He trusted me, and I liked things the way they were. Although, he had become even more busy. He kept on chasing the pack that had almost killed his beloved beta, and that made him a little detached, but that was fine.In the very least, I didn't need to share his love with anyone else.“Ma'am. Do you like this?” One of the employees asked, and I turned to see a stunning blazer dress, the design of which I had never seen before. How I loved blazer dresses. “Wow.” I let out softly, touching the fabric to feel its quality. “It's a limited edition. I

OCTAVIA'S POV.Alpha Jeremy didn't notice me, and that was fine with me, as I needed to safely take my shopping bags to my room, without any questions. Well, not that he'd ask out loud anyway. I just didn't need suspicions.“For the last time, Alpha Jeremy. Where is she?” Alpha Ragas asked, and I cocked my head.She?Who were they talking about? Could it be… Athena?No, it couldn't be Athena. Why would Alpha Ragas, who was married recently, be asking about a blind girl no one cared about?“Why should I know the whereabouts of someone I kicked out? I didn't kick her out to watch over her, or monitor her.” Alpha Jeremy replied, coldly.It was indeed Athena.“Because you shouldn't have taken her in if you were going to kick her out.” Alpha Ragas shot back, in cold fury.“Why should anyone tell me what to do with my mate? I don't see why. Who are you to tell me what to do?” Alpha Jeremy asked, and Alpha Ragas flew to his feet.“Where is Athena!?” He shrieked, but Alpha Jeremy also rose t

ATHENA'S POV.I had thought I wouldn't be able to sleep anymore that night, but I did. Lost in dreams of people dying, pain and death, throughout the night, I finally rose from my bed.The rays of the sun spilled beautifully through my window, extending towards the door, and they spread their warmth in the room.I got up from my bed, and went to the bathroom first. I had to be prepared to leave the house should Tristan not be back yet.Searching for him was a must. I had to see him. I didn't even bother with warming up the water, I used it cold, and although the chill was merciless, I could withstand it. After bathing, I picked a simple dress I could throw over my head, blow-dried my hair, and picked out a pair of flat shoes that would be comfortable for my feet.After combing my hair, and packing it at the base of my neck, I pulled on the white cotton dress, with a pattern of lovely sunflowers on it. I slipped my feet into my shoes, and left my room.The maids all bowed to me, but

ATHENA'S POV.Could it be a sign of miscarriage? I'd never seen people who lost their babies, but I had heard of them plenty of times. It always had something to do with them bleeding, just like I had done.Did I lose the baby? No, I couldn't have. How could I have? Yes, I had been doing countless active things in the recent weeks, but I never felt stressed. I always had the rest I needed. And besides, my baby was only two months old. I wasn't heavily pregnant to the extent of blaming my running around.My thoughts circled in my head like vultures moving around a dead body, and I sat on the toilet seat, thinking of what I would do. I couldn't tell Tristan, no, I would rather not tell him. He already had enough on his plate. The burial, his grief, his pain, I didn't want him thinking any of it was his fault because it was absolutely not his fault.I didn't mean to bother him too.After thinking for a while, I made up my mind to go to the hospital. I cleaned myself up, and dressed in
Last Updated : 2024-02-13Wanted By The Alphas The Fall For Another
ATHENA'S POV.I began to feel cold, and scared. I didn't even know whether it was day or night because the forest was just so dark. The trees had prevented the light from shining in. Every part of my body was alert with the feel of eyes on me. I was supposed to keep on running, but I was loaded with apples, and their weight was quite a lot. I began to walk as fast as I could manage, tripping several times, as I did. My heart was pounding, and my lips kept on running dry. My fingers were trembling, and threatened to let go of the hem of my hoodie, which I had used to hold up the apples. In fact, it wasn't just my fingers. Every bone in my body seemed to tremble. My knees buckled continuously, and threatened to give way and throw me to the floor. The unknown thing, which I felt was following me in the woods, still followed me, and it felt like it was going to strike in moments. I stopped, and looked towards the bushes, taking in quick breaths. The rustle came again, and I took a s

ATHENA'S POV.It felt like I wasn't hearing him correctly. Earnshaw was dead? Maybe I didn't know Gary, but I knew Earnshaw. He was a kind old man. What could have happened to such a healthy man? It looked so absurd.“H…how?” I asked.“He passed in his sleep… just like Gary.”“What?” I asked in shock. Gary died a month ago, and now Earnshaw? Something didn't sound right, but I knew it could easily be a coincidence, so I didn't think too much of it.“Uh… where are you?”“You don't need to worry about me. I…”“Where are you, Tristan?” I insisted, with more force. “I'm at his house.” He replied, and I turned off the socket, tore off the apron I was wearing, and left the kitchen. “I'll be right there, okay.” I said, leaving the Palace. I knew Tristan couldn't be okay. First, there was Gary dying. Not Earnshaw too. He was one of the old men Tristan was really close with, and I knew it would be difficult to let him go. I called for one of the men assigned as my driver, and he drove me s
Last Updated : 2024-02-15Wanted By The Alphas The Whispers Of Rain
ATHENA'S POV.I woke up a second later, and could hear the low pitter-patter of the rain on the windows. It was raining. When was the last time I heard the sound of rain? Or maybe I should say, when was the last time I saw rain?I didn't even remember what the atmosphere of rain looked and felt like. Next to me, Tristan slept, although I could tell he wasn't having the best of dreams at the moment. I swung my feet off the bed, and went to the window. Upon pushing it open, a breeze blew in, and it had the soft rain smell with it. The smell of packed earth, and cold.A few drops landed on my skin, and I looked up at the sky. It was a dull gray, and the clouds moved around slowly, and heavily. Were they also mourning for Earnshaw?Could they be whispering their words of condolence?It was in the morning, but it could easily be mistaken for late evening. As I kept on watching, I felt the sky was remarkably beautiful with its hues of gray. Yes. My favorite weather is the fall. I was s

Wanted By The Alphas Closure
ATHENA'S POV.I picked him up, and turned him around, giggling with him.“What did you just call me? What did you?” I asked in a funny voice, rubbing noses with him.He giggled.“MaMa.” He called again, and I squealed.When I opened my door widely for the first time in months, the maids seemed shocked. I had only always opened it halfway to take food, so they wouldn't be worried I wasn't eating.“Miss!” They said, with tears in their eyes, as they smiled, and I opened one arm. They came to me, and I hugged them as well as I could.Aiden and I went to Alpha Ragas' grave, waiting for Tristan, who would return that night.“Hi.” I said sweetly to Alpha Ragas, and dusted the pictures of him, and us, before placing them gently on the grave. “Say hi Aiden. Say hi.”“Ay.” He said, and I laughed. “It's been like… over two months since you left, and we all miss you, although, I'm still going to tell Aiden you're a coward because you didn't stay.” I said, smiling. “By the way, you haven't come
Wanted By The Alphas As Deep As The Sea
ATHENA'S POV.I shuddered, and heaved heavily, feeling like all breath had been stolen from me. He was gone! He would never speak, never smile, never see me. “Alpha Ragas?” I suddenly wished to hear his voice, craved to hear him call my name. Knowing I could never satisfy that craving, made me want to go mad. “Alpha Ragas?” I called, but he didn't reply. I screamed, and screamed again, holding him to my chest. It felt like I would die. My mate had died, and I and my wolf were feeling immense pain.Our goodbye was so painful, and I wished he never came to save me. “Alpha Ragas.” I cried. Crying seemed like it wouldn't be enough. I wanted to cry my soul out. I wanted to scream until there was nothing left to scream.“Help me! I'm dying!” I screamed, hugging his body to me, trying to keep him warm. It didn't help that the atmosphere was cold. It was cooling his warm body faster than food. Alpha Ragas eyes stared lifelessly at the sky, and it tore my heart apart. The palace behind me
Wanted By The Alphas Raw Pain
ATHENA'S POV.We stopped running at the same time. His face contorted in pain, and while I remained standing, he fell. My mouth was open, and my breathing began to come out faster. I screamed. I screamed again. My screams seemed to be in distant echoes. I screamed again and again, and fell to my knees. I raised his head on my laps, and tried to stop the blood gushing out of his heart. Why his chest? Why!? Couldn't they have shot his leg? The blood poured out through the space in my fingers, and soaked his clothes terribly. It seemed like everything around me had stopped. I couldn't hear the men any more even though I knew they were coming from us. It felt like my heart was bleeding. Blood gushed out in the form of pain. My chest hurt so much! Words were unable to explain my pain. “Alpha Ragas!” I screamed. Not like that. He wasn't to die like that. I was yet to thank him, and make him feel happy for saving me. Even if I couldn't be with him, I wanted to make it up to him.He cou
Wanted By The Alphas Traumatic
ATHENA'S POV.Alpha Ragas immediately got to his feet, and raced towards the closet as silently as he could. I hid my almost loosened wrists properly behind me, and tried to look hopeless, and scared. The door opened almost immediately, and a maid came in. Without intending to, my head darted towards the closet where Alpha Ragas was. She looked at the closet closely, and I coughed.“I need some water, please. I've been really thirsty. There's no water anywhere.” I said, trying to look really thirsty. “Do I look as if I came here to attend to you? I came here because there is something I have to tell you. Something you might not find exactly pleasing.” She said, haughtily, and I swallowed. “Something I might not find exactly pleasing?” I repeated, and she smiled. “I know the man who came into the castle, following you, or should I say the man who sneaked in after you. He's Alpha Ragas.” She said, taking out a thin knife from her pocket. My eyes trailed the wicked curve of its blade
Wanted By The Alphas Taken
ATHENA'S POV. No one would ever understand the feeling of gratitude I felt at that moment. Despite being very horrible to me, he jumped headfirst into trouble to save me. That touched me greatly. I was only scared for him. The men around were a lot and they seemed trained to be brutal, merciless, and unforgiving. If they happened to see him, they would take him down, and we'd both get our hearts eaten together because I could tell he was alone and didn't bring anyone along.Alpha Daven walked away, then turned back to me. “Do you want to say something or…?” He asked, and I blinked, trying to push my guilt, and relief out of my face.“You're forgetting that all creatures will eventually die. Everything you're doing right now is in vain.” I spat at him, and he laughed, clapping his hands in amusement.“Isn't it funny how you should be the one telling those words to yourself? All creatures will die someday. You're going to die in two days, there's nothing different in that. Also, whate
Wanted By The Alphas Old Enemy
ATHENA'S POV.When I opened my eyes, I was on a cold floor, and all around me was tons of space. My hands were tied behind my back, and there was a gag in my mouth. It hurt the corners of my lips, and my sounds were all muffled, as I tried to call for anyone who was behind me. No one answered, so I tried to recall what had happened. There had been the guy with the phone. Yes, he was the one who had abducted me. But wait? Why would anyone want to capture the Luna of the pack? Did they want to make Tristan mad? Why would they do something as stupid as that?I suddenly felt large and strong hands grip my shoulder, and I made a loud muffled sound, as I was made to sit. It turned out I wasn't alone afterall. I was in a large warehouse, and there were men in dark suits lined in two different columns with a lot of space between them. They looked like body guards, but on second thought, they looked like assassins with black glasses on their faces.It meant there was someone else—the boss. T
Wanted By The Alphas Fear Of Losing Her
ALPHA RAGAS’ POVFor the first time in years, I had cried. I couldn't stop the tears. They kept on flowing like rivers, and my heart was broken anew. Why was I crying? Tears and men didn't go along, but it seemed like I had transformed into a woman that night. I barely made it into my motel room before the tears began to crash like the waves of the sea. I sat in front of the little bed, and my tears ceased to stop. As usual, I drank myself to stupor, and passed out drunk. The next morning, I had a hangover that threatened to end me, but even with that terrible hangover, I still found myself asking the female receptionist if Tristan brought ladies in.I needed something on him.Subconsciously, my steps retraced their way to Athena's Palace, and I watched the guards do their jobs. I stayed there for a long time, and it was late in the afternoon when Athena came out. She took her hair out of the ponytail it was in, and it tumbled down around her shoulders in waves. She wasn't with A
Wanted By The Alphas Going Soft
ATHENA'S POV“Yeah, why don't we fight to the death, and Athena will have no choice, but to go with me at the end.” Alpha Ragas said, and my heart began to beat faster. They weren't really going to fight, were they?“If you can survive.” Tristan replied.“Where do we have the fight?” Alpha Ragas asked, and that was when I realized I had to step in because they were indeed intending to fight to the death. “Stop! There will be no such thing as a fight. Not when I'm here.” I said.“Athena, stay out of this. I'm trying to end all this once and for all.” Tristan replied, still staring at Alpha Ragas. “Maids are watching, we are having dinner. Do you want to shed blood here? I'm not pleased with this, Tristan, and if both of you think a fight will solve this, I'm just going to walk right out those double doors with Aiden. I mean it.” I said, in my strongest voice. “We are mates, Athena. Shouldn't you side with me?”“Alpha Ragas, I will be the one to choose the man I will stay with. Not y
Wanted By The Alphas Head - On
ATHENA'S POV. Immediately Alpha Jeremy had broken the mate bond, it had felt like my heart had been crushed. I fell on all fours, with my mouth open in pain. It was beyond painful, and I thought if I just stayed there without doing a thing, then the pain would be bearable, but no, it wasn't. It forced a scream out of my throat, and I held onto my heart. It felt like my heart was really breaking apart. This wasn't just an emotional pain. It felt physical, like someone was truly trying to split apart my heart. Tears filled my eyes, and I began to cry out. I heard Alpha Jeremy groan, but was too focused on my pain to think of whatever was going on with him.The grass was cold, and the wind below began to blow harder. My hair was all over my face, and my dress threatened to rise above my legs. None of them were helping matters.I lay on the floor after some minutes with an intense throbbing pain in my heart. After a while, it began to recede, and the throbbing reduced. I was breathing
