ALPHA ASHER'S POVA few days had passed and it was hard to stay in a room, starved. But the lady and I had gotten close a bit. Although, the normal would never speak to her to that extent, but this place was weird. You would do things you never thought you would ever do."Now it is time for the second phase. You will enter the illusion room and when you fight the illusion, you will be transported to where you wish to go to." The first werewolf announced, looking at each and everyone of us.We were ready to go into the illusion room and I feared for my new friend, because I found out that she usually was scared over things easily, but there was no way I could go on this journey with her.I also hoped that I would be able to conquer whatever the illusion brings to me and I kept reminding myself that anything that happens there is not real. I just needed to wield through. I hid the fear that could have shown in my expression, so that the lady would be encouraged to face it on.“Remember
ALPHA ASHER'S POVThe snakes came in different sizes flying at me and I immediately tried to run but fell in the deep sand.The snakes landed on the sand close to me and I immediately brought myself up to my feet and tried to run. It wasn't easy, running in the deep sand and the snakes were faster since they were in their element.One flew at me and I swatted it away, another flew right at my face but missed me by just an hair's breadth.I ran looking back at my unrelenting pursuers. It was something I couldn't bring myself to believe."It's all an illusion, they're just playing on your mind. You have to get out of here fast before you get caught! " I said to myself to give me the confidence I needed."Surrender! And stay here forever!" The voice of the lady boomed and although I looked in all directions, I couldn't find her."Stop this! I didn't plan for any of this!" I shouted as the wind picked up and it became hard to see.I had to close my eyes as the sand was flying all around
ALPHA ASHER'S POV"Who are you?" I asked out of curiosity."I am a seer." She replied, with no emotions on her face."A seer? Really?" It was good news as she was a seer, because I would be able to get an answer to the burning questions I had right now. "I have a question to ask, please answer my question for the sake of the time that we have spent together." I pleaded, earnestly and this I did, because of Marsai and because she was a seer that wasn't under me."Alright, go on.""Someone I love was abducted a few days ago and I need to know if she is still alive." I asked, hoping she was still alive.Then her eyes turned white and she went silent for a while. I had to wait for a while until her eyes turned back to normal."I saw that someone you love is still alive, but there is trouble looming around." She said as she looked around."Do you know how we can prevent it?" I asked out of concern and worry."Only your presence can prevent it. I will take my leave, right now." She said a
MARSAI'S POVI could not believe that we had just failed the task. I didn't know what fate had in store for us, after this.Then I noticed that the ghosts looked as if something was communicating to them, then they looked back at us."You failed the task, but you have been graced. You will leave now and will be transported back to your destination." The first ghost said, then snapped his finger and in the blink of an eye, we were at the Benitoite forest."Thank goodness. We made it!" Alfred raised his hand for a high five, which we did.Then we began to walk around the forest, trying to search for the gem."It's really hard to find the gem. It is so rare and I guess that is the reason most people are after it.""Of course. These gems generates a huge amount of money for those in possession of it. They know very well that people covet it, so it is sold at a high price." Alfred said as he continued to search around the forest."I think we need to take a break. I'm kind of feeling tired.
“Bastard.”“Wolf-less girl.”“Rejected buffoon.”I tried to keep a poker face as I felt papers and garbage being tossed at me.At least no one brought spoiled milk to school today to throw at me because I hated the smell and it was quite hard to take the smell entirely out of my clothes when I didn’t have soap.The bell rang, signaling the end of school. I headed out to start trekking home before the seniors were out, because it was the rainy season and they would splash dirty water all over my clothes while they passed with their flashy cars.I was the most hated person in this pack. None of my parents were around, so I was stuck in the palace with the Alpha where he hit and abused me whenever he felt like it. The main reason I was hated was that I didn’t have a wolf or a mate.There were rumors that the reason was that I was a bastard, and my wicked father, who was a mafia boss, cheated on his wife with my mother, who was a human and I was born. He died and left me in the pack, whic
Alpha Asher’s POVI watched as the fire I set on the rogue in front of me crisped. I felt contentment course through my veins as he screamed and begged for mercy, his soul slowly moving out of his body. This was what I did to every rogue that comes into my pack and proceeds to create havoc amongst my people.I raised my head to look at the Epsilon’s of my pack that I brought to witness this. There was sheer disapproval on their faces over what happened. They were always trying to be positive—saying things like there are other ways to punish someone other than killing them, but I greatly disagree.My father, even though he was a shitty man, had taught me a lot of things to this day on how to become a good Alpha. One of the things he said that stuck to me was how every person that starts mischief in the pack will turn out to be like a cancer eventually, as time goes on.The only reasonable thing to do was eliminate them and then, no one would want to be the second scapegoat. It was why
Marsai’s POVI watched the clock as it struck twelve. It was time. I looked down at the dress in my hands, and my heart shattered. I wished I had someone that would shield me away from all of this. My father was not a good person. He was the leader of the mafia in the pack that terrorized the Crest Moon pack’s citizens.Alpha Alex had tried multiple times to drive him and his people away, but he was stuck. It was after his death that I was discovered. Everyone hated me because of his actions and when they found out that I didn’t have a wolf, all hell broke loose.I was taken to the Alpha’s palace as a servant to be the punching bag for him and his family.“Marsai, don’t tell me you haven’t gotten ready.” I heard Blair’s voice say at the other side of the door to my room.My heart rate increased. If she came in to find me like this, then I would be lucky to escape with just a few bruises.“I… I am almost done. Just doing the last touches.” I wiped my face, then stood up to my feet.I q
Alpha Asher’s POV“This city is big,” Rafael exclaimed as we came down off the jet and headed into the airport.This was the second time I was coming to an event in this town. The first time I was here was several years back when my father was the Alpha. He had come for an Alpha’s only event then, but it wasn’t an auction.It had something to do with a werewolf ring that they were about to auction, and my father bid the highest. Up till this day, I didn’t understand why he did that because we were lycans. We didn’t need it. I didn’t know where he kept it or what he did with it.“You are saying that like you aren’t coming from a bigger city,” I passed him a look, and he rolled his eyes.“Whatever.”We headed into the airport and we were greeted by the pack’s theta.“Welcome to the Crest Moon pack, Alpha Asher. We are pleased to see you here,” he bowed excessively.I gave him a quick nod, “Thank you.”He greeted Rafael too. Some of the airport staff started wheeling out our luggage. The
