Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Twin Alpha's Curse: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Alpha Darius strolled from one end of his chambers to the other. He had gotten the witch’s granddaughter, he intended to use her as a pawn to get Yemanja to withdraw her curse. But it had been two days and it hadn’t been reversed. Word had reached him that his uncle, Gedoni, and his men were advancing towards Lakewood.Earlier that morning, a spy had come running to him. Prince Darius had placed spies in the four corners of the kingdom. They were to watch the areas and to report to him immediately if anything was wrong or out of place. The spy at the south end had rushed to him, out of breath. Gedoni had been sighted approaching the kingdom. It was going to take Gedoni a couple of days to reach him but still, Darius was uneasy. He didn’t like the odds.So that morning, after the spy had informed him about Gedoni’s sighting, Darius had sent some men to bring Yemanja to him.The men had brought in the old with and they threw her on the floo

By morning, two guards had come for Emelda. They led her to a large hall. She could tell that all the banquets were held there. Emelda had sensed that the reason why they had taken her up had to do with the fact that they had figured out that she was a wolf.As she climbed the stairs, she wasn’t scared. There was a sense of calm that went with her. She could feel her ancestors with her, she could feel her mother too.“Bring her forward,” she heard the chief priest say as the men dragged her in.Her eyes ran across the hall and she realized that something was different. Twelve men were standing behind the chief priest, all decked in red, holding black candles.As she drew closer, Emelda started to lose a grip on her powers. she tried to fight it, there was no way she was letting this chief priest take her powers again. How did he even know that she had them?Emelda fought back in her head and when she couldn’t sustain it, she

“Hello ma’am,” A maid curtsied, she stood in front of Emelda’s cell. Emelda took a quick sweep of the girl, she was about sixteen years old. her clothes were ragged but clean. Her head was wrapped in a large scarf and from the bulge of the scarf, Emelda could tell that the maid’s head held a mass of hair. “Hello.” Emelda walked towards the gate, she placed her hands on the bars of the cell gate that locked her in. “I have come to fetch you, miss. The prince has ordered you to get a shower and prepare for the evening, I am to help you with that.” The maid curtsied again without raising her head. PREPARE FOR THE EVENING? What exactly did that mean? Was she going to be wedded today? Was Darius expecting guests? What exactly were they preparing her for? Emelda stepped back from the gate. “what’s the occasion?” she asked the maid. She didn’t know the girl’s name so Emelda left that part out. “I have no idea miss. I do not ask any questions, I simpl

Darius’s wolf had gone into the woods for a run, he had been under so much pressure and he needed it. He had already sent a maid to prepare Emelda for the night but for some reason, his heart had been thumping so hard and so, he decided to take a run, to calm his nerves. But as he ran down his familiar part, something strange happened to him, he got caught up in a gust of wind. It came from nowhere, throwing his wolf against a tree and down a rocky hill. He had tumbled till he got to the bottom but he had come out unhurt. Darius had shifted back to his human self but he had a small headache. He took a little nap and by the time he woke up, he felt better. He felt strong enough to go back to the palace. To meet her. His walk back was more of a stroll, a slow lazy walk. Till he got to the west wing of the palace, where his bedroom was located. That was when he picked up the scent. An odd scent that was familiar to him, yet distant. He had immediately gone on al

Darius was still asleep.Emelda had cast a strong spell on him, stronger than she had anticipated but, in her defense, she had been carried away by the intensity of the fight and she had acted on impulse.
