DYLAN"You scared me, you idiot!" Iris slapped me on my arm. "Where did you go?""I went to get you your gift. But is that even the issue here?" I answered with a straight face. A certain wave of relief washed over me when I found her safe and alive. I had thought that she had been kidnapped or worse."I-I… I got scared, Wolfman." Tears trailed down her cheeks as she spoke. "Everything happened so suddenly, and I didn't know what to do. One minute I was in my room and the next minute, the entire mansion had been thrown into utter chaos.""It's okay, Iris. Everything will be fine. I'm here now." I assured her, and she clung onto me again like a second skin while I breathed in her scent. Her prehormones calmed down my wolf who had been raging inside me ever since we both went in search of her."I can't believe that I'm caught up in all of this." She pulled away and creased her forehead while aggressively wiping off her tears."What happened exactly?" I inquired."I was in my room and I
Omniscient POVA mysterious hooded man walked into the underground cave with fiery eyes. He was angry at himself and at everything around him. At himself because he hasn't been able to destroy his enemies and leave them in perils, and at everyone because they were just too stubborn to give in and die like they wanted him to.He took deep breaths to keep his emotions in check.Over time, he had become very powerful so he reveled in the fact that none of the other Alpha Kings could apprehend him even if they wanted to.He had built a lot to his name, and he wasn't done yet. He would need to lie low first and gather more strength because he will not only rule the human world but the werewolf packs as well."Bring them in." He heard someone command from the entrance, and he instantly knew who it was."You never cease to amaze me, Conner. Despite knowing the kind of power I possess, you still come here unafraid." He spoke softly before moving towards his high chair that signified a throne
IRISI waited for hours until Dylan finally arrived. I couldn't contain my excitement when I saw him come back to us in one piece. I thought that he had been attacked or worse, but I was grateful that he wasn't. At least, I wouldn't have to worry anymore."You're back?" I ran into his arms, hugging him tightly. He hugged me back, but we pulled away from each other and I suddenly felt awkward about it. I didn't know why but I didn't think we were so close as to start hugging each other. Maybe it was the adrenaline of fear speaking on my behalf."Of course I'll be back." He conformed. "I told you, didn't I? That I would come back to you, no matter what.""Welcome back, Alpha." Jamison bowed down his head curtly at him. "How did the meeting go with the rest of the other members of the pack?""It's more than any of us anticipated," Dylan broke down the news. "At first I thought that it was just me but apparently everyone in the council was involved in this. My pack was not the only one ra
IRIS"These beaded jewelry look so good on you, Luna." One of the maids complimented me, and I slowly raised my hand to touch it while I stared at my reflection in the mirror in front of me. I wasn't feeling myself today and to top it off, I felt like the weight of the world was thrown on my shoulders. The dream I had last night had not evaded my mind nor had I come to terms to understand what it was all about. I knew that something bigger than me was brewing somewhere but I just couldn't understand what it was exactly? Last night, I dreamt of the same scenario twice and none of those times was I able to get an answer to what was going on in my nightmare."You are right. The luna looks completely beautiful in this piece of jewelry and it really compliments her dressing today." I snapped back to reality when I heard that statement. They were talking to me and I had zoned out on them."How is it that you people are smiling and feeling so happy after everything that happened yesterday?
IRIS"You're seriously going to teach me?" I inquired when I heard Dylan's last statement. I was not expecting him to agree to teach me, let alone train me so hearing him say that he would do so came as a shock to my entire being."You just heard me say I would, so why are you still asking?"I shrugged. "I'm just surprised. And besides it's not like you strike me as someone who would agree to teach me. You're the worst, Mr. Wolfman, and you have never agreed to a thing I say before now. So who wouldn't be surprised?""What exactly are you driving at?" He scrunched his face as he faced me squarely."I don't know. I guess what I'm trying to say is what's the catch?"He rolled his eyes. "There is no catch." He muttered under his breath and proceeded to continue with whatever he had been doing before I walked in. "You just said it yourself that you are weak and helpless and that you wanted me to train you. Those are valid reasons in my books, and if I can help you to get better at your cr
IRISThe sound of my heart pounding could be heard from a million miles away. I was restless, totally confused and curious. They said that curiosity killed the cat and I was just about to believe that, that statement is true. All through the day, I had been up and doing and to make matters worse, Wolfman had refused to disclose what the meeting tonight was all about.Had he finally thought of a million ways to kill me tonight? Or maybe he wanted to hand me over to the council so that they would give me more punishments which might be far more painful than the previous one that I had experienced. Why on earth was he holding out on me? I couldn't read minds nor could I get any information from anywhere concerning what tonight was all about.Could it be that there was a festival that he wanted us to attend together or maybe there was an event that he wanted us to go to. The more I thought about the possibilities the more frightening it became. I had no idea how this world worked and so I
IRISI arrived at Dylan's room and as soon as the guards positioned at the door saw me, they opened it up for me to enter. This would be the second time I was stepping into his chambers but this was the first time that he was inviting me himself. The first time I came here was the time I yelled at Giselle and threw her out of his room. I had not stepped in here since then. My eyes looked at everything in front of me, and I was impressed to see how neatly arranged his room was.The color combination that was used in decorating the room sported nothing but grace and royalty. It was as if I had walked into a fairytale land. He had portraits of different designs hanging on the wall as well as fancy decorations and figurines placed at strategic places. This should be one of the best places that I have entered ever since I got here."Mr. Wolfman?" I called when I didn't hear a single squeak or voice from anyone. For a second there, I thought that I was alone in his bedroom, but I knew that
DYLAN"I think that we should take Mr. Wolfman for a walk. Don't you think so?" Iris suggested, and I darted my eyes to look at her briefly. We were taking a stroll around the mansion because for some reason she has suggested that we do so due to the fact that she couldn't sleep. I was not one to walk around with a lady neither was I the type of person that derived pleasure in caring about what others thought or wanted but with this woman, it was a bit different and I could tell.Each moment I spent with her always reflected to me in a different light. I could feel myself drawn to her and no matter how hard I tried to stop myself from feeling all of these, I just couldn't stop. I mean, she was a human for crying out loud and I still believed that the goddess must have made some kind of mistake when she picked her to be my mate. But why did every moment I spend with her feel nice?Besides, she wasn't my type. I was an Alpha and I was supposed to be mated with a woman who was strong en
