ASTERIA Mara walked around the palace as she awaited the return of the messenger. " Isn't he back yet?" she asked with urgency in her voice. " No my princess, there hasn't been any word from the crystal moon pack either, I guess Alpha Zeev is making his decision," the maid behind her said in a low voice not daring to anger her. " He should be back with that bitch, he must come back to Asteria with her," she said pacing around unsettlingly. " I'll go and check if he has arrived, my princess," the maid said, walking away in a hurry. The quickened footsteps of the maid was no longer heard in the corridor and Mara was left alone to her thoughts. " I'll make sure I kill that bitch once she gets back to Asteria, how dare she follow Alpha Zeev instead of Alpha Loki, she sure has some guts to covet my things," mara murmured to herself. " I never thought of her as a threat, it seems like I've to eliminate her and then everything will be in my grasp," she
" What do we do now mother, the thought of Fenrir staying in crystal Moon pack with Alpha Zeev is getting on my nerves. Didn't you see how he treated the messenger because of her? we have to make haste about it Mother, before it gets too late," Mara said tentatively." Bring me a man from the council of the elders, a high-ranking one, and ask that we meet privately, Alpha Zeev won't be able to reject this offer." The Queen said decisively.FENRIR's POV Kayle walked into the bedroom with a wide smile on her face. " Good morning my lady," she greeted with a happy face." Why do you look so happy, has anything good happened," I asked, sitting up from the bed." Of course, my lady, I'm glad you made the right choice of following Alpha Zeev, everyone in the pack has been talking about how he carried you into the park yesterday," she said giggling with smiles." Why is there so much talk about him carrying me here, I was not fit to walk by myself," I said back to Kayla who cared less about
" Good day my lady," a man in full cladded robe greeted as he walked into the meeting room. " Good day elder Aztec," the queen responded. "Please do have a seat," she said as she gestured to the chair in the room. Mara walked into the room behind Elder Aztec as he made his way to sit opposite the mother-and-daughter duo. " What can I do for you my lady," he asks, settling down. " We er..." Mara makes attempts to state the reason he was summoned. " Let the queen do the talking, my princess, " elder Aztec said, shutting Mara up in an instant. His eyes swept over Mara in a portent manner. " Elder Aztec, I asked that you be brought here because of a very important matter that needs urgent solution," she said and continued. " I know you must have heard about Fenrir being taken away by Alpha Zeev of the crystal moon pack," the queen said, looking into the eyes of elder Aztec for any reaction. " Yes, I've also heard about the messenger and the shenanigans that happened on his arriva
Alpha Zeev's POVI held the little woman in my hands as we both walked down the flight of stairs." Stay, I'll carry you," I said, bending over to sweep her off her feet."Tell me if you like what is prepared," I said, not Minding the protests from her as I swooped her from the ground.The maids around the table opened their eyes wide in shock." Alpha Zeev, there are some visitors from Asteria," a guard from outside said.The woman in my hands shuddered with fear as I could see the trepidation in her eyes." You'll be fine Fenrir, " I said , still holding her tightly in my arms."I'll get down first Alpha Zeev," she said, trying not to show the complex emotions." Stay Fenrir, you belong here, they're the ones who do not," I said, holding her tightly in my arms as the creak and clank of shoes was heard outside.The door opened and the expectant face of the old man with the woman who seemingly is the second princess of Asteria turned gloomy.Fenrir tried to squeeze down from my arms m
With a triumphant smile on her face, she limped slowly cause she had a broken leg from the way the guard hit her down. Together they made their way to the rooftop." What a foolish bet," she murmured, "the king of Asteria himself wouldn't dare to resist such offer", she said silently.I walked behind looking down at the guards who had moved over to the villages giving no reaction to her words.The woman in my hands had made small ruffles, making me halt.The crescent smile on the Messenger's face was slowly turning into a frown. " What?, how could they reject so much treasure, that the best of what they had ever seen in their lives, " Mara said, almost scrambling to her feet." Do something, Elder Aztec, why are you Just watching? Those people must be stupid," she said as she screamed in denial.Her face grew into panic as she saw the treasures being thrown to the ground, thrown back in the face of the guards who brought them." I believe you can see why I have so much trust in my pe
MARA's POV I shrieked in horror as I was being held in the dungeon. The dimly lit cave and stink smell filled my nostrils." Nooo, please let me go, Alpha Zeev, I swear I'm going to kill you, let me go, you these lifeless guards, you're all nothing, nobody. I'll make sure Asteria wages war against this pack and burn you all to ashes."I yelled yet in another terror as I was being plunged into the dungeon." Elder Aztec, do something about this, you watched as Asteria was being humiliated, I'm the princess of Asteria," I said, banging my hand on the metal door." You'll be out on the third day, Alpha Zeev has ordered that you be put in here till then, so it's better you just settle down," a guard said from outside.I made a small whimper out of helplessness." What can you do for me, I'll make sure I reward you handsomely," I said, holding onto the metallic door.The guard took another look at me, shaking his head as he walked away.My eyes dimmed with no hope of leaving this dungeo
" Haven't you wondered why there has been no news from Mara," Alpha Boron asked suspiciously." Maybe Alpha Zeev has sent that bitch Fenrir out of the crystal moon pack and has taken in Mara as his wife," Luna Kia responded nonchalantly." Do you think your daughter will be able to make Alpha Zeev leave his moon-made Luna for a girl who's crazy obsessive about him," Alpha Boron piqued up again." Not if the girl isn't my daughter Mara, she's the strongest princess of Asteria and beautiful too, her intelligence knows no bounds and with those treasures she took along, I'm sure she has already been taken in by Alpha Zeev," she said again, imperturbable." No I refuse to be at ease, this is the second day and news hasn't reached us that she is his wife or has been taken in by him," Alpha Boron said pacing around the throne.The sudden entrance of a messenger shocked them both to the core." Your Highnesses, there's big trouble looming, rumours have it that the princess has been locked up
Fenrir's POVI opened my eyes groggily, the smell of Zeev filled my nostrils.The morning sunlight streaked into the room illuminating his face.I stared at the man beside me and his jaws so defined, his chiselled jawline and his broad chest were mesmerising." I don't mind making breakfast for you if I'm so delicious that you can't take your eyes off me," he said huskily.His sturdy arms held my face to his chest leaving no space.My face turned red from his embarrassing remarks." Be a good wife, sleep a little longer," Zeev said, holding me closer. I made a move to free myself from the confines of his hands to no avail." I can only sleep well when I'm sleeping with you." His lazy voice resounded. " Be good and let me rest a little bit more, I've a long day ahead of me", he said , holding back my face.I made no further attempts to move again and went back to sleep. Hours later.The door creak awoke me from sleep and the bedside was empty.Kayla walked into th
