TWENTY-ONE: ONE CONVERSATION

SAGESuch an attentive man. Now that he talked to me in a way I wished to be spoken to, I felt more relaxed, smiling also while I thought about what was there that I needed answers to. Was I really thinking when there was a million and one question I had to ask? Especially when they were very obvious. Once more, I adjusted on the couch. “I wanted to know what my family members are coming here to do,” I let out. “I know I have no rights, but I am just worried and would love to know. Nothing more, my lord.” He heaved a sigh. It looked like a sigh of relief. Why was that? Did I ask the wrong question? Looking up to meet his gaze, I could see him smiling this time. “Is everything okay, my lord?” “Yes, Sage. You have nothing at all to worry about.” He assured me with a nod. “I just thought—nevermind. I have no idea what your Father is coming here to do. I must be honest with you. At some point, I believed you communicated with them about an issue or two you may be going through ov

TWENTY-TWO: GOODNEWS

ELEANOR I was taking a nap this afternoon when a hand knocked on the door of my room. “Eleanor!” One of my brothers shouted, startling me as I forced myself to sit up. “What are you doing at this time of the day?” He knocked again and I sat up, looking around the room before meeting my own gaze. At this point and against my wish, I was forced to stand on my feet and head towards the door. “What is it?”He walked in. As usual, Alistair didn't know what it meant to leave me to my privacy but I didn't mind. Not today. Not when it looked like he had a reason to be in my chamber. “What is it, Alistair? Do I owe you?” I asked again, settling into the comfy chair somewhere in the room not so far from the bed. “Of course, you don't,” he mouthed, relaxing on my bed. “I came to let you know that Father wants to see you. But you can't see him like this so you must take a bath or maybe wash your face before leaving this room.” My brow raised. What was he talking about? And what did he me

TWENTY-THREE: PREDICTIONS, AND REALITY

SAGEIt was the weekend in The Darkfangs Pack. Aella had come to wake me up this morning. Something unusual of her to do. “What?” Holding back my anger, I jumped out of bed. “Is everything okay with you this morning? And where is Aegon?” I turned back to look at the bed to see he was gone. Nowhere to be found. How much longer was I supposed to live with this? Then, it dawned on me. I moved into my room just last night. No one asked me to, but I chose to on my own. Maybe because I wanted some time to myself and nothing more. “Now that you recall, shall we bathe you?” Snapping out of my thoughts, I looked at the maid. “Yes, but why? Isn't it too early for this?” “No,” she shook her head. “It's Saturday morning, Lady Sage. This is the day when many of us would gather in the compound and engage in activities. On most occasions, the Alpha will be there to work with us. So you need to bathe.” The sound of the Alpha brought chills to my body. A smile even came alive on my coun

TWENTY-FOUR: EXCHANGE REQUEST

KNOX“My lord. They're here.” Who are they? “I have no idea what you speak about, Wolf. Who is here?” The man bowed again. “The family of Prince Aegon's wife. The Alpha came along with another lady. Alongside some men from his Pack. I believe them to be guards.” Then it hit me. How could I forget?!And to think that the Wolves were out of their rooms, doing tasks as usual. How did I forget? A sigh ran out of my mouth while I looked up to meet the guard's gaze. “Where are they?”“In the Pack's meeting hall,” he bowed. “They were led there by a maid since it's the usual place you meet with strangers. Especially because of—”“Shut up. I know.”I was still in my thoughts when a hand knocked on the door. Looking up, I didn't need to be told that it was Aegon. No one else knocked like him in the whole of the Pack. “Alpha Knox,” I could now hear him call. “I need to speak with you and this is pretty urgent.” “You may leave—” I said to the guard. “Come on in, Aegon. I'm available for

TWENTY-FIVE: REJECTION

KNOXI could not believe my ears.Not for a moment. All I could do was gaze at Alpha Arden. What he said sounded like nonsense to me, and I was more than ready to refuse his offer. “Did you hear me, Alpha Knox?” He called, smiling as he continued to eat. “We have come to take our daughter and hand Eleanor to you instead. What do you think of that?” At least he asked. I looked up, smiling. “Well, I think that's an impossible request you have there, Alpha Arden. It's very impossible to give back a woman we have already taken. I'm sure you know that but still came ahead to try your luck. And at the same time, I'm more than sorry to disappoint you.” “I'm afraid this is for your good, Alpha Knox,” I could now see the disappointment on his countenance. Not just his, but that of his daughter as well. “We have come for a good cause and not the wrong one.” What did he mean? Was there something about Sage I needed to know? I looked at his other daughter who was waiting for me to speak

TWENTY-SIX: REJECTION II

KNOXWe sat there, waiting for his arrival. At this point, I had run out of patience but I had to wait. Just wait for him to get here. And it seemed like it. When the hall gate opened, I sat up on my chair, more than ready to address the matter and dismiss these people. “My lord!” From a distance, he hailed. “Forgive me if I am late for this meeting.”“I was taking a bath when the guard came to call me. Good day, my lord.” Stopping in his tracks, he looked at our guests and then myself again. “I—”“Come on, Aegon,” I called. “You should take a seat. We might have something to talk about. Our guests asked for this and that is why you have been called.” He started walking once again, catching up with a seat not so far from me. I heaved a sigh, knowing fully well what was about to happen. I didn't need to ask before knowing he would reject the offer, especially when he'd said to me so many times that he loved the woman he was with. Why would he change his mind suddenly? How possibl

TWENTY-SEVEN: One Plot

ELEANOR Disappointment ran through my veins like blood. Anger could be seen on my countenance as well and one thing I wanted to do was rip off the hearts of those men. Why did they at some point think that they could make a mockery of us? Especially the Alpha who had it clearly written on his countenance like a birthmark. I settled down on the bed in the large room assigned to me. A sigh ran out of my mouth—more like a sigh of relief. This was the time for me to come up with something to do in order to be Aegon's wife. Did you see how he spoke to me back in that hall? None other way than the gentleman that he was. Instead of the usual anger that was plastered on my countenance, I had a smile on it instead. Aegon was such a handsome man. More than I would ever imagine. Back to the day of his wedding to that bitch I call a sister, he didn't look as fine as he currently did. Did that mean—No, I didn't want to think about the possibility. It should be the least of my busines

TWENTY-EIGHT: WORKS FOR ME

ELEANOR “I'll be right back,” the maid, who had fallen for the prank, turned around, forgetting to bow, and then rushed out in seconds, hitting the door hard. A smile came on my face. But it wasn't done yet. There was no guarantee that I would stay here and not leave. What was she going to do? What else besides passing the message to my Father who was waiting for me? Where was she going?!What was Father going to do?Sitting up on the bed, I heaved a sigh. I was tired of pretending already but what would these people have me do? Laying back, I looked at the door, pretending as I shook underneath the duvet once again. In a short while, the door opened. Instead of my Father just as I expected, the maid was running back into the room. “Alpha Arden will be here in a short while. But I wanted to know if there's something I can help you with while he is at it.” I opened my eyes slowly. “Wh—what did he say?” She shook her head. “He didn't say anything. But he is as shocked as I am

TWENTY-NINE: STAY

ELEANOR It was sweet. More than just sweet, in fact. All day, I stayed back in the massive room I was given, looking around and lying on the large bed. There was more than enough time on my watch, according to what I had seen. Daily, the Pack's doctor, Doctor Logan walked in and out of the room to check in on me and see how far the vitamins worked. Vitamins I seldom took. Again, there was a knock on the door today. As usual. It just depended on who exactly. “Who is it?” I looked at the door, gaining composure on the bed. “Who?” Snapping my fingers, I watched the door open and the guard who the Alpha had kept there for me, walking in with his head bowing. “My lady,” he called. “Doctor Logan is here to check in on you.” He explained while I nodded. “Shall I let him in?” “Yes, please. Let him in.” The door shut when he walked out. The next time it opened, it was the tall, handsome man in disguise of a doctor walking into the chamber. “Lady Eleanor!” He chattered. “A very g

THIRTY: Shock.

SAGEThe slightest idea of what was going on was far from me. It's been four days since they came into the Pack and until now, I had yet to understand what exactly was going on. “How are you, my love?” Today, Aegon walked into the room I moved into a while ago. I looked up from the bed where I was seated. “I was just about to eat something, Aegon,” I let out. “Good morning. How have you been? It's been a while since I saw you or heard from you?” “I'm so sorry, baby,” he hugged me to himself. “I miss you so much. I've just been helping my uncle with a lot and I didn't for one moment forget about a woman like you.” I nodded.It was understandable, after all. If only I had stayed back with him in that room, then there was no way I would not have all the answers I needed to myself. Was this a sign to move back into the room? “What is happening?” “What do you mean?” He let go of me, taking a seat on the bed. “Did you say you wanted to eat? How come you haven't? This is almost noon.
