Whispers Of Love

I knocked slightly on Alpha Alaric's study door before pushing it slightly open. I peeked inside and found the Lycan King sitting on his study chair, scanning through some scrolls and papers on his desk. The door creaked softly and he looked up at me. This was the first time he had not noticed my arrival before I came in and it did surprise me a bit. "Enter, Elora," he said, to me before returning his attention back to his work. I looked around the room for some moments before walking in and closing the door shut behind me. "You requested that I come once I was done with everything that I was doing, Alph--Alaric," I said, correcting myself as I stepped further into the room. "I'm here now." Alpha Alaric looked up again, a faint smile playing at his lips. He seemed to have noticed my nervousness as I addressed him by just his name. "You don't need to feel anxious or nervous when you're with me, Elora," he said, his voice as soft as ever. There was a long moment of silent, on

UNSPOKE PROMISES

I pulled the duvet over me as I turned slightly to face Alpha Alaric. The light from the fireplace glistened off his sweat-covered skin and I watched as his chest slowly rose and fell. It had been more than three weeks since I and the Lycan King became intimate and every night that I now spent with him seemed better than the last. I could see his love for me grow everyday and his affection double by the minute. What confused me though was that despite all these things, all these evidences, I had never for once heard him tell me that he loved me, nor did he ever reveal to anyone what we shared. I didn't really put much thoughts into it though as I assumed he was just waiting for the right time, but tomorrow was the day of the pack's mating ceremony and I wanted to know where he stood-where we stood. Was it all going to be revealed tomorrow, or did I have to wait some more? "Alaric?" I called after many minutes of thinking through what I was going to say. The Lycan King after hearin

THE MATING CEREMONY: STRANGER

The preparations for the mating ceremony had begun since daytime as the ceremony was to start by midnight. I oversaw the entire preparation, making sure that everything was in order before the guests would begin to arrive.I had not seen Alpha Alaric since our previous night and I wasn't sure I was ready to face him. Occasionally, I caught glimpses of him around the mansion, but I made sure to turn the other way. We weren't fighting or anything, but my foolishness from last night made it hard for me to face him.The servants soon finished with the preparations before evening, and afterward, they all returned to our rooms to freshen up. Gadot and I discussed about what I was going to wear, and I told her that I planned on having something simple but yet elegant-one that would make me to stand out from the crowd. I didn't mention to her, however, that my main goal was to catch the Lycan King's eye.After our discussion, I bade her goodbye and headed to my room to clean myself. After hav

THE ALTAR REVELATION: BETRAYAL

"I would like to thank everyone who chose to take out time from their works to come down here for our packs mating ceremony," Alaric began, adjusting his coat as he cleared his throat. The crowds attention focused on him as he continued, "I, Alpha Alaric, the Lycan King, appreciate you all sincerely for gracing the occasion." The crowd erupted with applause and cheers and I joined in too. Amidst the clapping, I noticed my cousin, Emily, slowly move through the crowd, heading for the platform. I paused, a frown appearing on my face as I watched her disappear into the sea of people. Where was she going? The crowd immediately fell silent, and I turned to Alaric to see him raising his hands. "As you all know, today is a great day, one that will define the future of many of us," he continued as his eyes scanned the crowd. When his gaze landed on me, he paused, giving me a smile before turning back to the gathering. His warm smile eased the tension that Emily had caused, and I felt my che

WAKING TO MY NEW REALITY

Echoes of laughter erupted around me and I felt myself sink into the sound. Wide eyes stared at me from the darkness encompassing me while the laughter grew. Hands reached from the shadows to try and pull me into the darkness, but before they could get to me, I ran. I had only made it to a few paces when a hand suddenly shut out from the ground underneath me and grabbed my legs. I fell to the cold earth with a loud thud, wincing as the air in my lungs got knocked out. The hand pulled me under as I screamed out in fright. Everything suddenly came to a stop as the sound of ringing bells reached my ears. My eyelids fluttered open, the light from my open window hitting my eyes causing me to squint. My heart pounded in my chest and beads of sweat rolled down my face, the remnants of the nightmare I just had clinging to me like a fog. I was glad nonetheless that it had just been a dream. I took in a shaky breath, trying to calm myself as I rolled to the side of my bed. I winced loudly a

ALMOST TIME

I laid on my bed, staring at my ceiling as different thoughts ran through my mind. I questioned myself, asking if what I was about to do really was the right thing or if I was taking things too far. But the more I thought about it, the more convinced in became. I had to leave. The day crawled by, slower than I expected and each minute felt like a thousand years. I awaited nightfall, the time my plans were to commence and throughout the wait, I refused to leave my room. The mansion servants knocked on my door, each of them asking of their assigned duty for the day but I paid none of them any heed. The offered me food, which I know was done out of pity for what had happened to me the previous night, but I refused that too. Apart from the fact that I didn't have the appetite for food, I didn't have the strength nor the will to interact with anybody. Chuckles reverberated through the corridors outside my room throughout the day and I didn't need anyone to tell me who they belonged too

THE ESCAPE

Serving as the Lycan King's personal maid all these while had given me the opportunity to know how things worked around the mansion. I knew what the maidservants, the chefs and even the guards were doing and the places that they were every hour of every single day and I planned to use this knowledge to my advantage. The chefs served Alaric his dinner by eight from Monday through Friday and served by seven on Sundays and Saturdays. Today happened to be a Monday so I knew Alaric would already be at the dining room by now. Even though he and Emily were now mated, I knew he wouldn't change schedule. He was a wolf of precision and timing and no one could change that. I looked at the grandfather clock, counting the ticks as the minute hand crept closer to six. The corridors leading downstairs would soon be empty and the guards outside were scheduled to take a two-minute break before returning to their positions. So if my timing was right, I would have a window of about a minute and thirty

MY ESCAPE: ROGUE WOLVES 

I stopped by a large tree and laid down by its large roots. My breaths came in sharp wheezes as I tried to calm my beating heart. Beads of sweat poured down my face, glistening in the moonlight as they fell to the ground. I was exhausted. I had been running for more than an hour now-a feat that I never believed I could achieve-and my legs were begging me to stop. If I continued on, I could break down from exhaustion and lose whatever strength I had left in me. "Ughh," I grunted in pain as I grabbed my grumbling stomach. The hunger that had left me since morning had finally descended upon me with full rage. I should have eaten when Gadot told me to. I lifted my head up, searching the trees for any fruit that I could eat to satisfy my groaning stomach but unfortunately, I could t find any. I sunk into the ground and closed my eyes tight as I took in deep breaths. Suddenly, I heard a snap and a small object hit me on the head. I opened my eyes and stood up from the ground quickly, t

MY ESCAPE: ESCAPE FOILED

The rogue wolves circled the base of the tree, their eyes never leaving me as they sneered up at me perch. I knew they could get to me if they wanted but it seemed like they wanted to play with their prey first before attacking.Suddenly, one of them leaped from the ground and swiped at my branch with his claws. A large chunk of it immediately broke off and fell to the ground. They laughed as the branch underneath me began to creak. My heart pounded loudly in my chest and whatever though of escape that I had formed immediately fled from me as my body trembled with fear. The branch I was on was about to give way and I knew I wouldn't stand a chance against them if I fell to the ground. Suddenly, one of the wolves ears twitched and they all stopped moving. Their heads immediately snapped in the same direction as a small rustle was heard. From the corner of my eyes, I saw a movement-a flash of fur dashing through the underbrush. I recognized immediately from its coat that it was a sma

TOO CLOSE TO CATCH

I grabbed a handful of mud and threw it at the rogue wolf. He grunted loudly as it hit him on his face, causing him to lose his vision temporarily. He tripped his foot against a stone and fell down hard on the ground right beside me. I let out a loud gasp as he fell by my side. His hands swayed from left to right as he tried getting a hold of me but I scooted away from him before they could get to me. Taking my chance to escape, I hurriedly stood up to my feet and jumped into the river. As I swam to the other side, I took a few glances behind me to see if he had recovered, but to my relief, the rogue wolf was still disoriented, slipping and falling constantly as he struggles to get up on his feet. I reached the opposite bank and scrambled out of the water, a small chill running down my spine as the cold water trickled down my back. My clothes were heavy and my breaths came in short gasps as I knelt down on the floor. I took another glance at the rogue wolf and to my horror, found h
