“I see no wrong in what I have done, I am innocent in all ramifications” Baldwin said nonchalantly.
“You have no fact that pleads you innocent, as the head of this great council of all packs I hereby sentence you to death by beheading” Donald said without an ounce of emotion in his eyes.
Few weeks ago……….
“This is the only way if we aim at taking the power we seek” Baldwin said to the elders of his pack.
“This is wrong and against council rules problems with the council always ends in a blood bath, other council members may understand but Donald will never let it slide” Rowan said.
“Let’s put it to vote, those in favor please raise your hands” Baldwin said, seven out of the thirteen elders seated raised their hands.
“Those against please raise your hand” Baldwin said and when he looked around, he could see six hands raised up.
“What side are you on Edward” Baldwin asked the only elder that did not partake in voting.
“I am on the winning side if this turns out right, we will all benefit from it but if it doesn’t, we will all suffer its consequences so I will like to remain seated on the fence” Edward said in a matter of fact tone.
“The Heriot pack is one of the four packs, we should aim at climbing in power and becoming the most powerful pack in the region, and I becoming head of the Council of packs which has been held by the Golem pack for many generations. I suggest we start a war which triggers every other thing to fall into place, he knows that every alpha will be in grief for all the pack members that they’ve lost”.
“How will a war trigger everything to fall into place?” Anabelle asked.
“We will come up with an argument that the Golem pack was in charge when the war broke out and they are not fit to rule us so we make a move to become the rulers, using our special ability as an advantage” Edward said as he sat lazily on his chair.
“That’s correct” Baldwin said.
“How do we start a war?” Anabelle asked again.
“I haven’t come up with something yet but by tomorrow, we will have a full proof plan” Baldwin said.
The meeting was dismissed and all the elders went back to their quarters while Baldwin went back to the pack ancestral library, he wants to read of all scenarios that caused a war in times past. He read through almost all the books only to find out that before the great purge, most wars were caused by packs having witches and after the great purge the problem became the moon diamond, everyone wanted the diamond to be in their possession, but the blood moon pack successfully won the battles and kept the moon diamond to themselves. Baldwin came up with an idea and smiled then said;
“I await the next Council of Packs meeting”.
The council meeting was held in the central building, a neutral ground, a no man’s land. Donald sat on a high chair with his beta, Louis at his right-hand side and an omega from their pack, Rita. All other alphas were seated with their beta and an omega from their pack Baldwin also present with his beta, Edward and an omega Lorene.
“We have been summoned here today because the Heriot pack has something of concern to tell us” Donald said and he motioned for Baldwin to speak.
Baldwin stood up from his chair and walked to the center of the circle formed and he started;
“As we all know what has caused wars amongst us have always been the witches or the mood diamond. Recently, I happened to come across a witch coming out of the blood moon pack house, and the alpha of the blood moon pack can attest to it that I was present in their pack house on the day before yesterday”
“Alpha Claudia what do you have to say about Alpha Baldwin’s claims?” Donald asked the alpha of the blood moon pack.
“My Lord, Alpha Baldwin was indeed in our pack house two days ago, and I can assure you that he has been the only external visitor we have had in months now” Claudia said as she stood before Donald with her head held up high.
“Alpha Baldwin, I think your claims are futile without proof” Donald said as he turned him.
“My Lord, I do have a witness though, I was with my pack’s beta on my visit to the blood moon pack house, Edward please” Baldwin motioned him to speak and in utmost confidence, Edward said;
“My Lord, I saw a witch leave the blood moon pack house, and disappear into thin air like she didn’t want anyone to find out she was there”.
Claudia was already pissed as her nails grew out of her fingers and her eyes turned blood red, she couldn’t stand the sight of this men lying against her and her prestigious pack. She was about to launch at Edward the weaker one and tear him to shreds but Donald already saw this coming, Claudia was quick to lose her temper and he sent Louis to go there and hold her down but she was faster and stronger than Louis. Just before he touched her, she gave him a hard blow to the chest and turned to face Edward her prime prey and in split seconds, Edward was already thrown across the room.
Baldwin became alert and entered his alpha state too, he wanted to give Claudia a blow but both of them stopped when they sensed a greater force standing in between them.
“Stop it” Donald said as he held both their arms, he did this not only to stop them but to secretly read their minds while they were not paying attention to him.
“Take your seats everyone, lets settle this case” Donald said as he walked to his seat.
“From what I see its Baldwin’s words against Claudia’s, I see no reasonable proof from Baldwin and I will like to personally investigate this matter before I take action. About the fight, do well to pay the penalty fee for fighting before you leave this building, meeting dismissed” Donald said and he walked out of the room, two pack members behind him.
“Baldwin’s lying, he is definitely up to something, but what he stands to gain from lying against the blood moon pack is what I don’t understand” Louis said to Donald as they approached their pack house after they ran a long distance from the central building.
“They are planning something big and this is just the beginning” Donald said.
The person behind her didn’t move for a while then she felt herself carried into a strong arm, princess style when she saw the face of the person, she sighed in relief;"Come on D, you didn't have to scare me like that" she said with a small chuckle"I had something bigger in mind though, but I wouldn't want you running out of the room naked and screaming on the top of your voice" he said as he put her down for her to stand on her feet"Ohh....I see, you should That would have been so..." she stopped when her eyes caught a big box that contained her other movable belongings. And when she turned to him she saw him hold a flower, it was a reush flower which only grew in the forest by the blood pack house, it was her favorite and she missed looking at it like she used to when she still lived in the pack house. She loved the vibrant purple color of the petals and the yellow lining at the tip.“How did get this? I love this flower but I never told you that, how do you know?” she said smili
“I really have no idea what it means my Lord, I have searched through all the ancient books piled up in this place but none seemed to hold any explanation of the words you spoke” the librarian to the ancient library said to Donald.“it’s alright, I’ll get going now do not hesitate to send word to me if you find anything related to this”He walked away from the library that was located in the middle lands, he turned towards the forest, he ran with his werewolf speed as to reach the pack house before nightfall.*******Rebekah laid on the bed as a lot of things filled her head, she thought of what Ashe said to her and also about the past that Donald hid from her, she would definitely make him suffer for not telling her the complete truth. And just about that time, Donald walked into the room. She was lying down facing the door but immediately he stepped in, she turned to face the other side after making sure he saw her as she glared daggers at him. He took off his shoes and his coat and
“Louis take care of her personally and make sure no one goes close to her room and please send someone to move Rebekah’s moveable belongings up to my room”“And where are you going to, brother?”“I’m going to solve a riddle”Louis went to the room where Ashe was being treated, he knocked gently on the door and when he heard no sound from inside the room, he opened the door gently and walked in, she lay on the bed looking straight at the door like she was expecting someone to walk through it. When she laid her eyes on him, she could just tell there was something different about his aura and appearance, he looked similar to Donald the major difference being the color of his eye, he had brown eyes while Donald had a pair of grey eyes.“Are you Donald’s twin?” she asked staring at him curiously.“No, I’m his younger cousin, our fathers were identical twins” he said with a blank expression on his face.“Okay, that’s cool”“I really have no memory of you at all from when I was a child” she
Ashe Theodore the vessel of the goddess, a curse was laid upon every female in her mother’s line that they would be born as a witness of the goddess by seeing destruction in the future and warning the parties involved beforehand. After her parent’s death she fled the Golem pack house and went to find a home elsewhere because no one was there now to protect her from the greedy hands of packs that would want her for their personal benefits. She went ahead to live in the north with the humans, thinking that fleeing the lands of Royanne will free her from the goddess and the curse that had been laid upon her, but every time she would always find herself coming back until she never left again.Donald thought hard of what could have brought her this close to the Golem pack borders, she hardly ever visited here even if it was the land, she was born. Even if she was once betrothed to him, he was never close to her as he has always felt that the mating bond was over rated not until he met Reb
“Rebekah Thomas, I stand before all today and ask you to be my wife, my other half, my mate, my Luna” Donald said and knelt on one knee before her with a ring in his hand.Rebekah stood fixed to the spot, her mouth unable to speak the right answer to the question, this was her dream come true. This man as beautiful as a demi god is kneeling before to ask for her hand in marriage and she was not going to say no not even if the heavens fall down right now. She will be his wife, his Luna, his soul mate forever. He asked her before but this time it was different, they were witnesses, her brother included.“Yes, yes” she said excitedly and he slid the ring into her finger and there was an applause all over the room. Donald held her close to him and kissed her gently and after that, she buried her head in his chest as she blushed.“Let’s dance?” he asked as he whispered in her ears with his deep voice.“I’m not a dancer, D” she said.“Come on, dancing is really not that difficult” he said a
Rebekah opened her eyes it was already dark, she felt a strong arm holding her waist and a gentle, steady breath behind her. She had fallen asleep in Donald’s room after their intense love making, she tried to wiggle her way out of his arms to return to her room but she felt his grip tighten around her waist.“Stay here for tonight, please” he said in a low sleepy voice as he looked at her with his eyes half closed.“Okay, I’ll do that” she said after a while of thought and he smiled and held her close to him as they both drifted back into sleep.Louis has searched for Donald all over the place the previous night, he decided to go check on him in his room, and on getting there he heard moans and gasps and quietly left because he didn’t want to spoil his brother’s fun. He walked around the halls and saw different decorations as they will be having a party in the pack house today, he was to make sure that nothing goes wrong in this celebration or Grandma Judy would have his head.Back i
Donald trailed kisses from her lips, to her neck, he gently cupped the soft shape of her breasts with one hand as he kissed her neck. “D” she moaned, gasped and strained at his touches and kisses, the strong hands tracing over every nook and cranny of her body awakened an unspeakable fiery sensation.Donald groaned. Completely absorbed in kissing her and touching her all over as he had done many times in his imaginations, the reality was far more exquisite to what he could have ever imagined. This was divine luxury he wished to enjoy for the rest of his life. He carried her and both lay on the bed with his body on top hers, he looked at her face and saw a fiery hunger in them, she wanted him as much as he wanted her.“I want more, D” she said in a low moan “Patience, Bekah” he said smiling seductively at her.His mouth latched unto her breasts, nibbling and licking while his hand travelled downwards. Rebekah’s heart was drumming wildly as she felt his hand going downwards, and she wr
“The alpha’s birthday is tomorrow and all of us both young and old know the tradition to present special gifts to him this just a reminder, no one should think about spoiling the suprise ” Reed announced to all the Golem pack members.“It’s another year to surprise him, he never grows too old in my eyes” Grandma Judy said as she smiled.“Grandma, you must be really close to Donald” Rebekah asked as she escorted the oldest woman in the pack to the kitchen.“I’ve known him from the moment he was born, I took care of him after his mother’s passing and later his father passed on too, he was such a young child then and will always come to me in tears when he misses his parents” she responded.“Ohh…. I see, so everyone surprises him with gifts on his birthday?” Rebekah asked again“yes, yes everyone does that as we all know what tragedy happened on his birthday. His father, the former alpha passed away on Donny’s seventh birthday and since then he has hated the day of his birth” Grandma Jud
Baldwin saw his end coming near, he never thought he will die like this, he always thought that he would one day rule all the packs as their king and lord. He regrets how he was being too rash in making his decisions and now he is going to die as an ordinary wolf who died out of thirst for power“This should serve as example to all packs who have the intention of causing an uprising amongst all of us who agreed to come together as one” Anslem said as he stood before the council of packs.As Baldwin stood before his very own death he was reminded of his greatest mistake which is what have brought him here today, he regretted being hungry for power, he regretted how he bought Edward’s idea to make a move for power he regretted how he agreed to kill three members of his pack to frame the blood moon pack. His wife, Karren will live in life-long agony as he will not be there to soothe her worries.“I regret it all” Baldwin said almost whispering.“Let the execution begin” Anslem said as h
