Alessandra Benjamin We stood looking like two stupid teenagers who just caught their parents in bed. I was chewing my lower lip to control my laughter. Noah was looking at the door trying to confirm if it was his office or someone else’s. Just then the door flew open, and an embarrassed Lucas and a happy Emma came out of it. Lucas' hair was still disheveled and Emma's skirt had so many creases that she never bothered to straighten. "I thought you were in the office to discuss something about the attack on the North region. But you were attacking the central region." There was a trace of amusement in Noah's voice and Lucas' face could not get any more red. Holding my arm Emma took me aside. "Who asked you to get here so soon? You people could have waited a little longer. Oh!" I was sure my mouth was hung open. She did not seem shy at all about her body needs and sexuality. "Em. I know this is not my place to ask but..." I did not know how to say it when she finished it for me.
Kiara:The day Alessandra stepped into the palace and showed up on that breakfast table. I knew she could not be trusted.Today when I wanted to celebrate Talia's successful operation, King Noah called her sweetheart. In the morning, at the breakfast table, he kissed her lips.Royals were allowed to show respect to their mistresses. Being affectionate with them publicly was not allowed.This all pointed to only one thing. Alessandra Benjamin was NOT King Noah's mistress. I took it all wrong. He was slipping away from me just like a handful of sand ready to slip away from one’s hands through their fingers.Oh, Goddess. What to do now?"The bitch is again scheming and planning something in her mind. I can feel it." I heard the two she-wolf warriors talking about me. They knew I could hear them."Why is she like that? She is not even a royal. I mean she is like the rest of us. The handsome King Noah belongs to all of us. Right? Ha-ha."They were laughing and were now openly looking at m
Alessandra BenjaminI could hear Abramo’s thudding paws approaching me in no time.“Abramo! No! Don’t be a fool!” I was trying to reason with the beast when I stumbled and fell on the green grass. I rolled over to look up when the big black beast was standing with his paws on either side of me.He was looking into my eyes, I realized. I had witnessed Ashley and Kiara’s shocked faces before falling.Abramo’s Royal aura was rolling off in waves. His golden eyes had turned fiery orange but strangely it did not affect me. I was unaware, of why I was no more frightened of him. Yes, I was hurt. Maybe, I was expecting some empathy.However, I was not scared of him.“Abramo. Sweetie!” Ignoring the gasps behind me, I started stroking in between his eyes. His head was bowed, “I was trying to be honest, Abramo. Believe me. Please.” I pleaded, “I wish for my death more than you and I will be glad if you will do the honors.”The words seemed to have a slow impact. Gradually he started controlling
Kiara pov:“What the hell was that?” I was not the only one who stood there in disbelief, “Who talks to an Alpha wolf like that? First she called him a fool then sweetie. She had the gal to call him by his name. Is she fuc*king out of her mind? ”Ashley did not respond. There was something on her mind. I could feel it in her eyes.“Ashley. Say something! You are the head warrior. You could have killed her as an excuse to save our king. It’s sheer disrespect.” That got her attention. Her nostrils flared and she started digging the muddy ground with her shoe toe."Talia is getting better, Kiara. She needs you. Taking the advantage you can get some freedom from these chains. I am trying to build a positive image of yours in King Noah's eyes. Every time when I think I have pulled you towards positivity and time and again you push yourself several steps backwards. Why?"Oh, Goddess. Another Ashley’s typical lecture, "I get it. You want to kill her? Why don't you invest some time in somethi
Alessandra Benjamin“Everything will be alright, Sandra. I will not let you suffer anymore.” I was standing by the window and could feel Emma’s cheek leaning on my back. The wetness on my t-shirt was a telltale sign that she was crying.It had been three days in this shithole where I was not allowed to go out. They were taking care of me in every possible way but what to do when my heart only wanted one thing that was the bane of my existence? I wish King Noah could trust me and listen to me.Though I tried to tell myself thousand times that I don’t give a damn about that sorry excuse of the king, on the other hand, I was not able to push him out of my mind and heart.This prison was nothing compared to what I faced at my pack house. I was confused if the pain in my heart was due to the inability of reaching to Alpha Romeo. Or was it because of the indifferent behavior of the king?“I don’t know anymore who to trust, Emma.” My friend was here after taking special permission from the K
Alessandra Benjamin Dania was bent down and I could have a clear view of her cleavage. She was looking into my eyes. A few minutes back, when she heard my wolf’s growl, she was quick enough to come to my room. The most hurtful thing about that kiss was King Noah let it happen. He did not back off, unmistakably enjoying her touch. “What are you looking for Dania?” Goddess knows why I could not sound rude to her. “I am looking for Carla, Alessandra.” She pulled the skin under my eye bags to have a clear view of my eyeballs, “Your wolf…” “Your wolf is there. You need to help me in bringing it out.” I kept shaking my foot trying to dismiss the sudden pain in my chest. “Well!” She straightened, “It might come out if we try harder.” I did not know what she meant by that. The door opened again and Ashley came in with a wine bottle. Had she lost her mind? Why the hell she was here with the damn wine bottle? “Any hope?” She was asking Dania but Dania shook her head with a little disappo
Third person pov (flashback)Her beautiful grey eyes were searching for someone while walking towards the school cafeteria. She never had her lunch without Ashley. She straight away went to their usual table when someone placed her hands to cover her eyes.“Looking for someone? Annabelle?” Anna who had started smiling suddenly pinched the skin of the back of Ashley’s hands.“Brat! How many times should I tell you not to call me Annabelle?” She threw a fry on Ashley’s face which she caught expertly, “I don’t know what my parents were thinking when they chose this name. Ugh!”Ashley chuckled and sat beside her. Anna never liked her name. She was always bullied for it due to the horror movie named Annabelle.Ashley reached out for a fry from her tray which Anna was quick enough to drag away from her reach.“Go get yours, Ashley.” She was trying to be classic mean to her best friend.They were childhood friends since Kindergarten. Ashley was the one who approached Anna for the friendship.
What was she saying? Did she love her? Anna had turned her back and Ashley could see her shoulders shaking from crying.“I could not tell you, Ash. I was afraid you will hate me. The pack will abandon me. All the talk about boys… It was just a pretense. I never wanted Jacob or Brendon or anyone.”“Goddess!” Ashley went ahead and held Anna from behind leaning resting her cheek on her head, “What took you so long, Annabelle?” Anna seemed to go rigid under her touch.Now, this was Ashley’s turn. She did not know when tears started flowing, wetting her face.“Remember the day when I came to you for friendship. I never knew why I felt attracted to you. I was twelve when I realized, I did not want any boy in my life. I will stay by your side. Protecting you. Even if you were mated to Jacob or my brother I would be happy for you, Anna.”She held Anna by her shoulders and twisted her body to face her.“For me, it was love at first sight, Annabelle. I was so scared of your hatred that I could
