Chapter: ChokedAstridWhat the hell was he doing? I tried to wriggle my hand out of his grip, but it was as tight as a vise as he dragged me out the door and towards the garage. He yanked the car door open and pushed me forward. He was about to enter but stopped and turned to the guard at the garage. “If you ever see her around here, let me know.” The guard nodded, his black security cap bobbing on his head. He entered the car. His jaw was tight, revealing nothing. What was his problem? “Seatbelt on.” I rolled my eyes, reached for the side of the seatbelt, and pulled it across my body. It was no use arguing with him; I didn’t have the energy.“Who gave you orders to go to the club?” His voice rang in the car. My eyes, which were fixed on the dark path ahead illuminated by the orange headlights, snapped to him. His eyes were on the road, focused just as they always were when he looked at me.“I didn’t know I needed your permission before going to the club,” I muttered, my hands fiddling between my ti

Chapter: careCadenI didn't have it in me to sit for dinner today. I had a lot of shit I needed to figure out.After making the call, I made my way inside. I stopped at the door when I saw my mother gently rubbing her hands up and down Bruna’s back. Her other free hand was pushing a glass of water into her hands, urging her to drink.Without so much as a thought, I shoved my phone into my back pocket and made my way to them."What happened?" I demanded. My hand moved to the table and shifted the plate of food that was in front of her. I frown at the dish of vegetables. That was too much food. Though I understood that pregnant women needed to eat a lot, but that was a lot given that she wasn't even a month gone yet. My hand moved to her back as I gently rubbed it, just like my mother was doing. She took off her hand and retracted the half-full glass of water.She hadn't even drunk much of it. "She choked on that corn." My mother pointed at the half cob in the dish of seafood like some unwanted ite

Chapter: Antenatal I pulled over in front of the two-storey building. I stepped out of the car and moved to the passenger seat. I took out the two heavy bags of groceries I had bought. I closed the door with my feet, since my hands were occupied.I stopped short at the sight of the entrance. Was he at home or still in school? Pain ripped through my heart at the thought of going back home – a home that wasn't mine. A home that I will be sent out from if my secret came out in the public.Still, I had promised July that I would visit today and I liked keeping my promises. One of which was to finish Caden Woodman and his family.I shook the thought out of my head and made my way forward. I nodded at a few neighbors in front of their doors.It wasn't a classic hostel, but it was a decent place to live. I went to the stairs, taking two at a time. My eyes glanced at the wall. Some of the paint was already flaking off. It needed painting, but some landlords would tell you they didn't have money, making me wo

Chapter: morning routine Chapter 6Bruna. I knew I shouldn't have told off July like that. But thinking about Keenan wasn't what I needed at the moment. He was my son, yes, but it had been years that I set eyes on him The sight of him reminded me of the past I tried so much to forget. I didn't want to focus on that.What I wanted right now was to focus on what was at hand. To get close to Caden. Get him to trust me in whatever way possible, get his family to trust me ,make them believe that there was a child growing up in me. And from the looks of things, Caden seemed to be more concerned about the child and would do anything for it. And that was exactly what I wanted to focus on right now.I pulled the blanket off my body and let out a loud yarn. I squinted my eyes at the sunlight hues that entered through the transparent white curtains that shielded the floor-to-ceiling windows.I took my hairband from the nightstand and wore it. I stepped to the bathroom and quickly did my morning routine. By 7

Chapter: Hidden Secrets Bruna.“What would you like to eat?” Caden asked, typing on his phone as we drove home.“Didn't you say we couldn't eat outside of the house?” I brought my little bottle of water to my mouth and took a sip. He had told me we couldn't eat outside of the house when I told him the baby was hungry. He cocked a brow at me like I needed to answer him without asking questions.He waved his phone in the space between us “I want to call home and ask them to cook you something before we arrive.”Oooh! “Is that care I hear in your voice?” I smirked, pressing the bottle of water against my chest in a shy-like manner.“Funny..” He scoffed. “I only care about my child.” He dialed on his phone and looked at me. So I gave him what I wanted to eat.“Toast, mixed spicy vegetables, beef stew, white rice and tomato sauce, vegetable salad, chicken soya… and don't forget to add fruits.”By the time I finished naming them, his eyes were on me, phone over his ear. “Isn't that too much for one person?” He

Chapter: The baby is hungryCadenI enjoyed the life I was living. I didn't want to get caught in a union called marriage. I wasn't ready for it. But my mother had to make me marry a stripper; a girl I had only met once. She could be lying for all I know. Someone could have planted her in my life. That's why I told Anthony this morning to keep an eye on her after she came home with a red and swollen cheek. She had told me she fell down the stairs while she was at her home. That didn't look like something caused by a fall. I would have asked Lucas about it, but I didn’t want to. The guy and I met occasionally and we're not close like before.My mother has always wanted me to get married but I didn't know it would be something like this. I knew her sole reason was because she was from the King's family.The next morning, I sat in my office, when a knock came on the door.“Come in.” I said.Bruna pushed the door open. A familiar looking silver tray in her hand. Her brown hazel eyes, which looked familiar somehow

The Luna's Walk of Shame
Luna Astrid had been a faithful and dedicated partner to Alpha Jarvis and the entire Emberclaw pack. She took care of the pack when Jarvis was away.
She was happy when she learned that Jarvis would be coming home. She waited, only for him to come back with a lady he claimed was his fated mate.
Astrid was torn apart. Yet, Jarvis assured her that bringing another woman to the pack wouldn't change anything between them.
A situation occurred, and Astrid was accused of theft. She pleaded innocent, but no one listened.
She was subjected to the walk of shame, forced to walk naked in front of the entire pack.
With certainty that her world had come to an end, the twisted and dark alpha of the Shadowfen pack took her in.
He trained her, and she became one of the best warriors in Veridian.
When tragedy struck the Emberclaw pack, Jarvis ran to the Shadowfen pack to ask for help.
"How dare you ask for my help after what you let them did to me?" Astrid demanded.
"I'm sorry, Astrid. I was lost and following the pack orders. You should come home." Jarvis pleaded on his knees.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. Astrid belongs to me and to the Shadowfen Pack." Soren pulled Astrid to his side, not willing to let her go.
Would Astrid go back to her pack, to the man she once loved or stay with the man that had saved her?

Chapter: Another mink-LinkAstrid I was in the Glacier early in the morning and warming up, while waiting for Darson to show up. He has been doing well so far by taking his time to teach me what I needed to know. I have been able to learn a few boxing tips from him. Never look your opponent directly in the eye. If they come at your face, brace your hands and block your face. Avoid them getting to your eyes. The face was a delicate place and needed a lot of protection. When faced with your enemy, you need to take them down by targeting the vital points on their bodies. Their chest, limbs, feet. I stopped throwing punches at the dummy and looked down at my feet, wondering what kind of pain it would cause my opponent if I had to step on their toes. The limbs made sense. A good punch at the limbs could break it. And yes, he had also talked about throat punching with two coiled fingers, and guess what? I had been thinking of doing that to Soren.He needed a good punch in his throat that could reset his brai

Chapter: Don't get close to herSoren.She had been avoiding me. I could tell. She made no eye contact with me when we were in the same space. She shrunk into a shell when I walked past her or when I was close to her.She had been training with Darson for the past two days now. I had let him take on that part because there were a few pack matters I needed to put in place. A lot had been going on, and I didn't have the time to train her, especially when her brain was so slow in comprehending simple instructions. I tended to click more with people who were good at understanding even on their first try.I met them the other day. Darson looked to be getting quite close to her. They stood close to each other, and she made no attempt to tell him to step back.Not like I care about the whole thing, but they were not supposed to be that close to each other.I brought out the files I needed to cross-check.

Chapter: The MeniaAstrid"Hasn't she woken up yet?" Faint and distant voices whispered around me. I tried to stay awake, but my brain and entire body were in a mess. It was numb and weak.I fluttered my eyes open when I felt cold liquid droplets on my face. The first thing I saw was the white ceiling above me, with a blue ceiling at the center.I gazed to my left when a deep male voice spoke with a southern accent. Some of the words were incoherent. I could pick on them because I was closed ."She is awake, Alpha."I used my hands to pull myself up into a sitting position. My eyes wandered around. I noticed I was in an office. The one I had found Soren in some weeks ago. My brows knitted together when I realized I was on the floor.What was going on? I didn't have any memories of coming here and being in this position. I shifted my eyes to the left of the office. Two tall men stood with their backs against the wall. They look just like the men I had encountered at the hospital. They were dresse

She hadn't taken them back. I guess she just wanted me to have them.I had a black overall coat on my body and a dirty brown scarf I had found in the room when I first moved it. I hadn't known I would use it until now. Thank goodness I kept it.Once I was sure that only my eyes were visible, I stepped out of the house and gently closed the door behind me. I looked at both sides of the hallway. The side where my room was, was dark, and the other side led to Soren's office. A little orange light slipped from under the door, evident in the dark. Everyone should be asleep by now. I had made sure everyone was asleep before I left.I didn't know if this was the right thing for me to do, but I didn't care at this point. I needed to find Amira and see if she was doing okay. I could only do that by going to the pack, and I was confident

I've managed to do just that.This has been the only way to keep me sane, to clear my mind of the recent happenings around me.How could he? How could he ask me to set a man's breath in his lungs on fire? How was that even possible? It might be possible for him, but not for me. How dare he do that? And he even tried to force me to do it.I tossed the bow to the floor. I moved over to the dartboard and pulled the arrow from the green circle. I'd been able to aim there about five times without missing.I should be happy that I was finally getting somewhere with this, however, I wasn't liking it here at all.

Chapter: The BurningSoren.I traced the dimly lit labyrinth to the dungeons, which were small, dark, and confined rooms in the castle. One guard stood at the door, and two others bowed their heads before pulling open the thick, heavy metal iron doors.I stepped in and stood at the entrance. The walls were cold black stone, chilling to the touch. Just like the sound, everything was cold. We rarely enjoyed sunny days for long.The old lampstands stood at the four corners of the dungeon, their bright orange light lining the floor."Has he said anything yet?" I asked Darson as I moved forward to stand in front of the man confined to an iron chair at the end of the wall."He's been tongue-tied, not giving anything away." Darson stepped away from him, an iron tongue in his hands. I could see the blood dripping from his fingertips. When I looked at the man, I saw that he had some missing fingers, and the remaining fingers had no nails.A smile tugged at the corners of my lips. He had given him just the right to

I got out of the car and found George standing at the entrance of the house, with his hands behind his back, a smile plastered on his face.

He looked like he could kill somebody, until father and I had asked him to go after her rather than stay here in the house and act all moody."I heard Kevin explain and stopped, then a fist of heavy laughter bumped inside the house.
