Chapter 21

Even if she could mask the emotions on her face there was no hiding her racing heart,“You came back.” The quiver in her voice was barely there as he lightly stroked the tiny hairs on the nape of her neck exposed by her high updo. It was barely there but he heard it. He smiled and as soon as hse saw it in the mirror she seemed to remember her role of playing hard to get. “The next time you touch me, ot`ll be the last thing you do with thos e hands.” She took several steps away from him. “Is that your heart or your brain talking?”“They are one and the same and you would do yourself a favour to heed those words.”He took a step closer wondering if she would move back. She didn’t. she was looking straight at him-glare was more like it- daring him to come closer and touch her.He thought of Ciara`s advice, what if athena was just too scared of what she felt to admit it. What if he had to give her a push, just a little. Perhaps Ciara was actually wiser than he thought.“I`d say I`d die h

Chapter 22

She woke with a start to the pounding of the door, immediately taking in her surrounding she paused as she saw Alex now in human form under her sheets, the same sheets she had been tucked into presumably by Alex himself before he helped himself, she looked to the once trosseau of luxurious clothing which was now a heap of ash and tatters of fabric strewn around, among them she recognized a piece of his clothting, no doubt torn as his body morphed in to a wolf to pull her from fire. Fire. The same thing whic she had just used to punish him he saved hetr from. Sh wasn’t even about ready to think about what she had seen in her hallucination. She looked to his hand which was laying above the crisp white og the sheets. Althiugh the area under and wround his hands were slighly blackened from the burn of his skin. Two things came to hermind. First, He negleted his own pain r=and even risked worsening it in order to save her despite she being the fashion er of the disaster that occured within

Chapter 23

“He saved your life?” Alex waited for her to shut the door before asking curiously“Yes.”“From whom?” “I couldn’t tell.” She said crisply as she turned to him after shutting the door on Damien`s back.“Athena,” he exhaled at her robotic responses and searched for the appropriate question that would give a detailed answer. “Let’s try this again, why did he have to save your life?”“I was meeting with the former advisers and someone shot an arrow at me from the window.”His fists clenched and he sat upright letting the sheets fall to his waist, a more perfect sight she had never seen. “tell me where the bastard`s dead body is located so that I can dissect it into bite sizes for my dinner,”She was surprised by his violent talk since he has always tried to be an advocate of peace. She almost felt bad for the guy who had targeted an arrow at her.“He got away, I had to make sure Damien was treated.”“All the better I’d like to give him a message before I send him to Beelzebub.” He was ab

Chapter 24

Walking through the hallways of the Royal house with nothing but a makeshift towel and a burnt hand wasn’t as difficult as Alex thought it would be, he had expected to be the subject of mockery for at least a week but that wasn’t an issue as almost no one was there save a few guards who didn't even blink at the sight of him.The first time he walked this path he was a little surprised considering the scenery he was used to. Back in Blue moon pack the corridors and compound were always bussing with people, children and pups playing catch and nipping, maidens giggling as the saw him walk pass, the women huddled in various groups exchanging ‘the latest tea’ on inlaws the men inviting him to play some game he had to feign interest in as he simultaneously gave an excuse while making his escape. He could never hope to understand what was so appealing or masculine about a man being so wasted he cannot walk straight line or the thrill of gambling even when you are clearly bad at it. It wasn’t

Chapter 25

Well things have turned interesting real quick, from getting burnt to spending the night with Athena and now he was walking around town looking for a faceless, nameless killer. With no clue at all, the council members refused to speak to him and the only evidence was the arrow pulled out of his body and he didn’t even bother to ask knowing he wouldn’t share such an important thing that could aid him in finding who the killer was and consequently win their little bet.An Alpha of what some would say was the most powerful pack fighting over the scrap of affections he wasn't even sure to get. Another person would say how the mighty have fallen, but fighting for Athena's affections, was in no way demeaning. Not when she was going to be his future Luna.Now that he was walking around with no particular destination, the town seemed larger than when he had first entered the palace.Something about being lost in s place you are not familiar with makes the whole place seem like a maze.He was

The worse part about hearing that was it didn't sound unlike her. "I am sorry, I will inquire within the palace if there's any news." "She doesn't deserve you." "You're wrong. I have seen the goodness in her its buried deep but its there. If anything it is I who doesn't deserve her." "How long do you plan on digging?" "Until we are both covered in it."She looked at him and saw that he was hopeless. "I have seen you pass this place twice. Where are you going?" He had passed the place at least five times but he held his tongue on shame. "I'm not sure yet. I'm looking for someone," "Whom?" "That's the problem, I don't know." "Oh right the person who almost killed her." "Do you wish he had achieved his purpose?" "I don't wish anything. Wishes are words wasted on nothingness." it was sad to see such a soul already so cryptic. "I can help you find him and take him down." "How exactly?" Alex looked at her petite form skeptically.

Chapter 27

As Alpha, he was raised to believe every good deed any of his people should do reflected on him and the bad ones were as though he himself had done it, so as they continued to walk while fiona stopped to ask questions occasionally Alex was filled with shame and guilt on Athena's behalf. So the man she had ordered to be tortured and murdered was someone's family. Not that anyone that thought he was a loner cared for by no one. But now that he was side by side with his daughter seeing her pain, it was different. The man Athena had ordered to be killed if only to make an example of him, now he cant be so sure that this girl wasn'teven the one to climb to window and aim an arrow specially carved for Athena. She had orphaned this girl, and wasn't bothered about it. Heck she had even probably forgotten. Was that why her mother's spirit haunted her? Or what if, it was her mother's spirit that tormented her and pushed her to do the things she does, who's to say the incident he witnessed was

Chapter 28

The entire assembly of cowards went quite, an outsider was voicing out crucial problems they were too scared to admit."You really don't know when to stop do you?" Damien started to walk towards him. Were you no a guest here I would have severed your head before the echoes of your words died down. One more foot out of turn and your existence will cease to be a problem.""Damien, calm yourself." Athena surprised everyone with her calm demeanor. "As you have mentioned, Alex is guest here, we and we do not sever the heads of our guest no matter how tempting it maybe, rather we hear them out and listen to the reason behind false accusations." She turned her head to Alex as she said the last words."During my search for the traitor amongst us I realised that perhaps the person's anger might have been justified.""Are you on the side of treason?" Damien was determined to get Alex out of the way."I am of the side of justice and truth.""So who is unjust and a liar then? You dare call the A

Chapter 29

"What?" "You heard me." Alex shook off the clean cloth the physician had placed in his arm. Werewolves recover with speed but when they are hurt with fire it takes more time. That was why one of the worse threat given to a werewolf would be a threat of being burnt. Like Atheba's mother had been. "You can leave." He repeated. "I know I didn't have much of a choice when she sent me here, but I'm a doctor I can't leave you like this." "Leave." "But-but your hand. The burn. The Alpha." "My hand my choice don't you think?" He smiled warmly at the confused man. The man had left after that and now that he was sure she cared, he had a plan. No doubt Athena didn't expect his hand in the same condition when he had burst into the meeting. Funny how Damien thought he could fight him. If he used his strength a single blow would take him to his knees. It wasn't that he was feeling kind or forgiving, it wasn't time yet, and more than that he wanted Athena to b

Chapter 30

I just checked underneath my shoe and I don't see any organ of yours beneath it.The good doctor will vouch for that but who will vouch for you?You are the one suffering the pain, not I. When your body starts to weaken as the good doctor fears it will, don't say I didn't warn youHe noticed she didn't make anymore comments regarding the name calling. So she was fine with it so long the evidence was destroyed. Interesting.I have a suggestion, let the who caused the pain be the one to take it away.Have you trampled upon so many hearts you can no longer differentiate which mine is? (Not in the literal sense)I am no physician. What could I possibly hope to do.I was wondering how you were standing without your heart to pump blood, the clarification was welcome.Just come and offer moral support, the hallways are usually empty around 6:30 that is in a few minutes time, that's when most of the servants go to the pub, only ones available are the ones fucking their brains out.Moral suppor
