21: Beach Day Out

It was Lord Ezra. I winced when the old man staggered to his feet, disoriented by the blood on his hands. He had only touched his head. To think he was bleeding that much was scary to everyone. "Who did this?!" He shouted, glaring at everyone present. My bones felt twitchy. Nerves coursed through me. The universe must hate me so much to have to let this happen to the one man who had sworn to kick me out of the palace the slightest chance he got. He turned to Reece, who was closest to him because he had rushed over to help. "Tell me, Beta! Who's responsible for an attempt at my life?" The look on the Lord's face was carved out of hell as he searched the crowd with his eyes. They landed on me at the instant. I froze, knowing I still held the gun. Kaloyan and I were the only ones holding weapons. The only ones likely to have shot the bullet that grazed his skull and painted his silver hair red with blood. His frown deepened, turning dark as he considered me, the enemy. He was abou

22: Threatened By Secrets

KALOYAN'S POV I stormed out of the woods. Lord Ezra struggled to keep up, but I was too busy burning down the path I walked with the anger coursing through me. He had sent another parcel. I felt like a mouse trapped in an enclosed space, sick and tired, but without a choice. On the way to my study, my feet rooted to the ground all of a sudden. I couldn't move again. My eyes watered. I was still breathing fire, but my chest tightened as I stared at the little girl with Patricia's maid. I looked away, watching the marble floors for a few seconds. Again, I raised my eyes to the duo at the far end of the hall. Her sobs gripped my heart and squeezed it with a clawed hand. Lord Ezra said behind me, "My King? We should keep walking if we don't want to miss the Eastmoon annual fundraiser." I tore my gaze away from the painful sight ahead, looking over my shoulder and blinking a few times. It took a minute for me to recall the fundraiser I began a while back. "Where is it holding?" "Th

23: It Takes Two To Hunt

After Reece broke the news to me, I wasn't sure what to feel. An Alpha should fear nothing. But that was just a saying because a real Alpha had a lot of things to be afraid of. His throne stood out on this list of things. Lord Ezra's idea of the fundraiser was the only thing I could think of to save myself from the haunting truth. Had my father had an affair while married to Mother? I threw my head back, shutting my eyes while a headache pounded hard in my head. "We are here, Alpha Kaloyan. The Beta's wife and Ms. Williams only arrived a few minutes ago. Do we head elsewhere for now? " Geoffrey sat in the passenger seat of the car. He was in charge of protecting me. I opened my eyes as he spoke, looking out the window. I thought about Athena and the few encounters we've had. Though most weren't pleasant, I still intended to get to know her better. "No, I will get down here." He appeared uneasy, holding his protest back as he spoke into the security piece in his ear. "The Alpha w

24: Sigil in The Forest

CARA'S POV It had been Patricia that advocated that I join the participants of the hunt. Apparently, the woman who was supposed to be this wolf's partner had undisclosed matters of urgency to handle. Now I was stuck playing this dangerous game. The forest thickened as we walked further into it. The wolf with me was named Levi. He used his hands to break past the tree vines entangled in the way. "Where are we supposed to find these numbers?" I asked Levi. His muscular back met my face as he stopped. I craned my neck over his shoulder, wondering why he wasn't moving. Squinting, I noticed he was looking at something above. I followed his gaze to the tall, gigantic tree at the side. Its branches spread far and wide. He lifted a hand and pointed. "I'm seeing something right there. Can't you?" "Well, I guess." I lied, scratching the back of my neck. "I heard the price is a 100 thousand, but you don't deserve it, don't you think?" "What are you talking about?" He scoffed, curling hi

25: Unexpectedly Smitten

Quickly, I severed where Levi's hand joined with mine, biting the inside of my cheek. It was over before we knew it. After a successful fundraiser, I went home in Kaloyan's vehicle. I knew he kept to himself always in his study or the arsenal, but he was unusually quiet now. "Did something happen, Alpha Kaloyan?" Master Kaine stayed silent. My gaze lowered to my hands in my lap. He wasn't going to answer. Yet he shocked me by taking my hand and intertwining our fingers. Mine felt warm against his big hands. I let out a deep sigh, getting used to it. I looked at him, confused as to why this brought me all the comfort in the world I needed. "Athena, I'm not used to sharing my possessions. Be it my throne. Be it you." He made me sound like I was a shiny BMW amongst his collection of favourite cars, like something non-living. Master Kaine fixated his eyes on me, and I couldn't escape. The back of his hand brushed against my cheek as he leaned in, resting his forehead on the side of

26: The Second Test

I blinked. My jaw slacked. I had a lot to say, but only incoherent words made it past my mouth. Was he doing this because I had refused to kiss him at the studio? He was big on not wanting to hurt me. I shouldn't have believed a word out of the devil's mouth. Kaloyan continued. His smile disappeared, but his eyes remained amused. "The rules of this job were explained in the job requirements." "Can—can you repeat the rules again?" He hissed in thought. "Well, you have to do everything I want. Everything, Athena." "That's it?" A look of horror crossed my face as I imagined being caged by him again. Kaloyan laughed, lowering his head a bit, but his voice did sound glacial like the winter. "Didn't you read them? Could I have gotten you so flustered with a silly joke?" "I'm sorry, Alpha Kaloyan. I guess I forgot them so quickly—" "No, Athena. The rules do state you have to do everything I want, but then, I find that ridiculous." Hope gleamed in my eyes. "So, I can refuse to have sex

27: Something's Wrong With The Princes

KALOYAN'S POV Lord Ezra knocked on my door too early in the morning, but I hadn't been asleep. I was lost in thought about what I had become. Everyone wanted me off this throne. If they had their way, they would behead me and burn my body in a fire. "What's the reason for this summon, Lord Ezra?" I climbed the stairs of the dais, meeting my dark coloured throne, inscripted with old Eastmoon language. It had tall, spear-like edges and a headrest shaped like the wings of a bat. I sat down, gripping its arms. The throne room was empty, save for the three wolves kneeling with their heads touching the ground, and the Lord still yet to unveil why we were here. "A few days ago, rumours sprang up about Your Majesty's bastard brother. When the beta brought that to your attention, I sent spies out to the city." I had forgotten about the rumours ongoing. The news bothered me because my throne was at stake, but I imagined I wouldn't be the only one affected by this news. Joseph put a leash on

28: Because You Aren't The Queen

CARA'S POV I'm still holding my heart even after closing my bedroom door behind me. I had just witnessed something so horrific I could never forget it. Taking in a rush of air, I struggled to control my breathing. A knock sounded on my door, and I jumped out of my skin.I walked to it, only to find Mattie and a few other maids on the other side. She spared me a smile in sympathy. It was a bad day in the Eastmoon palace, and I was the only one just getting used to things."What are you all doing here?""The Alpha has ordered for your things to be moved to his bedroom."My eyes popped. "Why?!""You passed the second test. It is only right that you start living with him now.""But we are not even married yet. It's anything but right!"No one was listening to me. I had no say within these walls when Master Kaine was involved. Mattie looked apologetic, but her hands were tied. They began carting my things away, one after the other.After a while, I stood inside his bedroom, feeling caged.

29: Darlene and I

Athena's best friend was a dog? What the hell is wrong with people? Dogs could be cute, but why not specify that a dog is a dog and not just a best friend that could be anybody but a damned dog! I took a step back as my heart skipped many beats, but Kaloyan's hand that had slipped around my waist kept me rooted to a spot.Everyone put up a smile except me. The guard left the little dog to run to me, and I couldn't tell if Kaloyan was holding me to a spot on purpose. I could have fled on instinct. My palms felt sweaty at my side. I had even shut my eyes, but then, nothing happened. I looked and saw Kaloyan petting the tiny dog calm. He was controlling the little animal with ease. Everyone held their breaths. First, it was with the princes, and now he was being soft with a dog. It was out of character. Something that had never been seen in the Eastmoon palace since he became king, weeks ago."Simon, give the dog a fine cage and place her in our bedroom." "Are you serious?" I half yell

30: The Swain's Table

Voices sprang to life inside the room. Shocked ones and angry ones. Many believed I was stupid to have put myself in harm's way. I started to believe that, too, after a few seconds of watching the anger reigning on Kaloyan's features. I had disrespected him more than once within the space of minutes.Suddenly, I remembered what Beta Reece had done to the woman who spoke out of line. Her head rolled off on the room's black marble tiles. But Beta Reece wasn't here now, and Kaloyan had said nothing yet.To my surprise, again, it was Lord Ezra who came forward first and said, "My King, do not pay Ms. Williams any heed. She's only acting up because of her relationship with the culprit."Lord Timothy added. "I agree with Lord Ezra. As for the necklace thief, she should be locked up as agreed, Alpha Kaloyan. The Lord in question is a high ranked Eastmoon wolf, and his daughter Ivy was once your betrothed. They shouldn't be treated any less important.""What do our laws state about elderly wol
