The next mission went as planned, the villagers were caught unaware and by the time they wanted to fight back,It was already late and their village was up in flames with the then Beta who betrayed Rozim’s father to become the Alphanowhere to be found but the other leaders tied up on a stake at the same place they had tied Rozim and Eloha when they found them. “Jasmine, let’s hurry and get to the dungeon as fast as we can. I have a feeling Alpha ralph will have gone ahead of us to the dungeon” he said in a rush while trying to pull me along with him.“Where’s this dungeon” I asked Rozim“Its in a settlement across the river of Zolam behind the village”, he respondedWe ran towards the back of the herbal home; we found an abandoned boat and I sat in it while Rozim got down to push us far into the water before jumping in himself.“Can you row faster Rozim, if your gut says Ralph is at the dungeon, then we need to hurry before he harms your mother. We got to the settlement in no time a
I don’t know what it is with me waking up to the excited chatter of the birds,there’s something soothing and hopeful about that sound. I was awake but my eyes remained close to enjoy the bliss in the sound of nature around me.I can hear some quiet whispers above my head and wondered who those voices belong to, what were they talking about?“Do you think we should wake her now; she looks so peaceful” I smiled; I still do not open my eyes; I was feeling quite lazy that morning.Wait, is that rain already? I was starting to enjoy my blissful sleep. What kind of rain falls without the fresh scent to water hitting the dry earth, I was puzzled.I slowly open my eyes to see Mich standing above me with a small container containing water, ready to sprinkle some more on my body.I exclaimed, “Mich! what do you think you’re doing pouring water over me like that” I said with fake annoyance springing up at him while he retreats backwards.“I sure will have my revenge on everyone who assisted
“You mean to tell me that Derrick is getting married to that witch Becky? After all they’ve put me through“I’m really sorry Jas, but I’ve got to be on my way before my absence is noticed. So long sister” she said walking away into the bush just behind the hut.I was lost for words as tears streamed down my face, I made no attempt to wipe it off as I thought back to when Derrick rescued me when I was almost burnt to death, up till when he announced me as his mate, I thought of the time he chased me away and denounced our relationship as mates publicly.Fresh tears streamed down as I gripped my chest in pain. It was in that state that Mich found me, he ran to me and put my head by his chest.“Jasmine, shhhhh, it will be okay. Just calm down” he comforted me while rubbing my hair. I further buried my face in his chest and soaked his cloth with my tears.“Just tell me what you want us to do to him and this Becky girl” he continued. I was shocked, how did he know, was he eavesdropping, a
I started on the journey back home by dusk in tears and a heavy heart, when Derrick announced me as his mate, I was so excited and I felt everything was just right and nothing could ever go wrong. When the villagers started accusing me of being a source of bad luck, my only consolation was that I had a mate that cared for me and had my back and would defend me. So when he denounced me publicly, my heart was shattered into a million pieces.I was almost home but I didn’t want the rest to know that I had been crying. I stopped by a lake and washed my face a couple of times, when I was satisfied, I made way to our hut.Rosetta and Carissa were the first to see me,“Everyone Jasmine is back”, they screamed with excitement as they hugged me tightly.“O..ka..y guys, can you let me go, you …are … choking … me” I struggled to breath as they held on to me tightly.“We are sorry Jas, we were just excited to see you” Rosetta talked in a rush as she was excited to see me of which I was yet to
We started fresh rounds of training with the rest of the pack. There was a sense of importance to the current mission: which made us train harder that we ever had. I trained more aggressivelyMich was the one training us, he taught me how to further develop my stance when fighting and also how to fight with my wolf, who was getting better by the day.He taught Devin and Harry in the art of bow and arrow,they also got as many poisoned poisoned arrows as they could get. I was the most amused by the ladies, Eloha indicated interest in sword artistry which I didn’t she had been secretly receiving trainings from Harry, Carissa was obviously leaning towards the art of bow and arrow defense while Rosetta preferred fighting with her wolf of which she had the strongest wolf among the ladies.“Jasmine, lets wrap up the training for today, its kind of being a while we sat round the fire after dinner, you know the way we used to have it” Mich said after a session of training a particular morn
Later that evening, as we prepared to have dinner, I supervised the girls as they prepared dinner and I watched them chatter excitedly,I drifted into thoughts as I thought about the dream I had earlier in the day. “What could this dream mean, I was sure I heard the voice call my name” I muttered quietly to myselfI shrugged off the eerie feeling that settled about me as I thought of the dream“I guess I just have to let this dream go, perhaps it’s as a result of the recent happenings” and like that I discarded the dream and whatever it could mean. I rose to my feet to join the rest by the fire as is our daily practice,“Jasmine, where have you been. You didn’t have dinner, are you sure you are okay” Carissa asked me as she sat close to me holding my two hands warmly.“It’s nothing serious Carissa, I’m okay. And as for dinner, I wasn’t really hungry”I assured her as she had worry lines etched on her face.I watched Mich to catch his reaction but he just sighed and looked away, th
I honestly don't know what to do to stop having these weird dreams and I also didn't know who to talk to about them either. They have started to get to me, and it is starting to be obvious to the rest of the pack."Jasmine, I've noticed your mood lately. Is something bothering you"Rosetta came to me when she noticed my absence at breakfast" I even noticed you didn't have anything for breakfast" she continued just then Carissa and Eloha were approaching us"Rosetta, has she spoken to you about what was bothering her" Carissa asked with worry and hope in her voice."No, she hasn't, in fact perhaps you can talk to her,maybe she will listen to you" Rosetta replied standing up for Carissa to sit next to me" Or do you want us to get Mich, maybe you can tell him whatever it is that is on your mind" Carissa said winking at Rosetta " Please don't tell Mich anything, I do not want him freaking out over nothing,Okay, I promise I will tell you what is bothering me.But please do not tell
As Mich suggested, I decided that the next time I had the dream, I was going to pay attention to little details that could help me make sense and decode the message the dream might be passing across.The next time I had the dream, I found myself in the same forest this time,I had a clearer vision of the mysterious lady and strangely this time for some reasons, she was slow and cautious in her pace and I was able to follow her to the entrance of an ancient cave and then I woke up.I went in search of Mich to talk to him about the new things I had found about the recurring strange dream.I finally found him teaching Eloha how to shoot with a bow and arrow, it’s quite emotional and heart warming to see Mich acting as the father and Alpha of our pack despite them choosing me as their queen.He constantly sees to the emotional and physical needs of the pack and ensures we have a solid structure, I’m somewhat glad to have him around as I have no idea how I would have fared if he was not
