DYLAN"What does it say, Alpha?" Kavan inquired when I had successfully dismissed the other warriors that had fought by my side. I knew that he wouldn't take my words seriously when I had asked him to leave. He took his job as my Beta quite efficiently if you ask me."It doesn't—""Don't you just try to dismiss the issue. I saw how worried you became after you read the damn letter so please, tell me what it says." He pleaded, and I handed the paper over to him. He unruffled it open to read through the contents."Do you have any idea who could've sent this?" He asked, and I nodded my head no. I was speechless just like he was and I couldn't wrap my head around anything at the moment."The wild ones are basically wolves who do not have control over their emotions or feelings. Their sole purpose is to kill and destroy whatever comes to their way, so this note is an indication that someone might be controlling them. But who?" I asked no one in particular."Maybe someone from the Alpha cou
DYLANThe maids took Iris back to her bedroom as per my instruction and I was left worried again about how she had gotten the letter in the first place. My mansion was the most secure place in the entire pack, so the fact that someone was able to make it inside meant that they are familiar with this place and had been here before. But who?Who should I be suspecting now? Who was that friend/enemy that wanted me dead for unknown reasons? As far as I was concerned, I was a one-man island. I didn't interact or socialize with anyone, not even the neighbouring Alphas of the other packs. I didn't have an issue with anybody and I barely exist. So why was someone after me? What exactly did I do, and to whom?And what role did Iris have to play in all of this? Are they probably trying to use her to get to me simply because she was my mate? She has barely been here for a month and she hadn't gotten into any problems as far as I was concerned. So why then are they after her? And for what reason?
IRIS"I believe that you owe me a gift now, Mr. Wolfman." My voice cracked as I bursted into another series of laughter. Just looking at his face was enough to send me into an uproar. Dylan looked like he would murder me any minute from now. It was not my fault that he had lost. If only he had agreed to let go of his pride, then we certainly wouldn't be here arguing with each other.I had only come here for a race to get my mind off things, especially from the letter that I had received but he had to make it competitive by agreeing to have a race with me. The mansion could be boring when you have absolutely no one to talk to. Today was one of those occasions where I missed my parents and my time in the human world, and I couldn't help but feel lonely.When my handmaid in charge of taking care of me let it slip that there was a stable in the mansion, I decided to stop wallowing in self-pity and take to the fields for a change… that was until he showed up."You didn't think it was neces
DYLANI couldn't believe that Iris' birthday was today and she hadn't said anything about it either. Was she trying to hide it from me? But why would she do that? Was it because I hadn't stopped the ritual from taking place? Was she still upset about it? Was that why she had refused to let me in on anything?So what if I hadn't stepped out today to have that race with her? Would she have said anything to me?I was utterly disappointed in myself that I hadn't realized that my wife's birthday was today. Just how distracted have I been these days? I chuckled when it hit me that I had just addressed her as my wife. Well, I would get her the gift in hopes that we make peace with each other even after I had promised her hell when we got married.I had woken up tired, exhausted and in a bad mood from the nightmare I had last night, but racing with her had somehow alleviated the burden inside me. I felt more at ease, as though I could do anything I put my mind to do. It felt a bit nice knowin
DYLANI arrived at the pack to meet the entire place thrown into utter chaos. The defense system had been obliterated and most of the houses had gone up in flames. My eyes took in my surroundings and that was when the damage of what had happened hit me."How on earth did something like this happen?" I asked no one in particular. My mind was scattered all over the place and I couldn't bring myself to accept what I just saw.Most of the guards were lying injured in different parts while the rest had already wound up dead with their bodies lying in different fetal positions."Alpha?" Someone called out to me, and I was met with the hurtful eyes of an older woman who had just walked up to me."My husband and my kids..." She pointed to a house a few feet away from where I stood, a stray tear trailed down her eyes and I noticed that her eyes had gone red and puffy. She had been crying for a very long time which was a clear indication that it happened a while before I was attacked.And if th
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
