As the door burst open, a blonde girl rushed into the room, causing the nurse to recoil in fear. Her face was a mixture of guilt and anger, her dishevelled bangs falling over her forehead. With teeth as sharp as the necklace dangling around her neck, she gripped my collar, her voice piercing the air with a high pitch.
"You ruined my life!" she screamed, her words reverberating throughout the room. The intensity of her anger was palpable, and her grip on my coat conveyed her seething frustration, emanating heat and sweat.
Before she could finish her sentence, someone forcefully entered the room, immediately taking hold of the girl and calling out her name, "Akira, stop!" His commanding voice resonated with authority, and she reluctantly calmed down in his embrace.
It seemed as though she had been compelled to comply. The nurse reduced to a small presence in the corner, trembled as these two powerful wolves took over the room. Fear gripped my heart, and I found myself breathing heavily in the face of the threat.
The tension in the room was palpable as the alpha male's voice cut through the air, commanding attention and respect. "Enough is enough, Akira," he declared, his tone firm yet tinged with a hint of weariness. "If you can't accept the fact that she is more deserving, then leave this pack right now."
Akira's face twisted in a mixture of pain and anger; her fists clenched tightly at her sides. Tears threatened to spill from her eyes, but she fought to hold them back, unwilling to show any vulnerability. Her gaze locked onto the alpha, filled with defiance and desperation.
"She won't do you any good, will she ever satisfy you like I do?" she cried out, her voice quivering with a mixture of sorrow and resentment. Her words hung in the air, heavy with an unspoken challenge.
The alpha's expression remained stoic, unwavering in the face of Akira's outburst. He stepped closer to her, his presence dominating the room. With a firm grip, he grasped her cheeks, forcing her to meet his gaze.
"Look, Akira," he said, his voice piercing through her anger. "You're old enough to be another world in this pack. You don't need this position anymore. She can surpass you in every way." His words struck a nerve, the weight of truth settling upon her shoulders.
Akira nodded, the tears threatening to spill finally escaping down her cheeks. Her screechy voice trembled as she struggled to find words amidst the whirlwind of emotions. Her eyes shifted momentarily to me, filled with a mixture of resentment and a desire to inflict harm. The intensity of her glare made me instinctively flinch, feeling the weight of her animosity.
But the alpha refused to let her be consumed by anger. With a forceful grip on her arm, he brought her focus back to him, his eyes burning with determination. "Leave, now," he commanded, his voice leaving no room for negotiation.
Gulping down the bitter realisation that she was no longer needed, Akira formed another tight fist, her nails digging into her palm. She turned on her heels and ran out of the room, her departure filled with a mixture of fury and a hint of resignation.
As the door slammed shut behind her, the room seemed to exhale, the heavy tension dissipating. The alpha remained strong, his gaze shifting towards me, assessing my reaction to the intense encounter. His commanding presence and unwavering resolve were palpable, leaving an indelible impression of strength and authority.
No one likes to be overshadowed, and it seemed that Akira struggled to come to terms with the fact that another wolf had taken her place. I had overheard the previous debate between the two males, where the higher-ranking male had chosen me.
The male wolf standing before me was unlike the others. He sported only two tattoos, a dragon and a moon, adorning his muscular arm. The intricate designs, inked in red, accentuated his powerful muscles, making him even more captivating.
His eyes blazed with a fire that matched his physical prowess, yet they also held a softness that drew me in. As he clenched his jaw, a vein disappeared beneath his honey-toned skin. The alpha male gestured for the nurse to depart as well, leaving us alone in the confined space.
He approached me slowly, his steps creaking on the wooden floor. His body leaned in, bringing his lips dangerously close to mine as he whispered, "Are you okay?" His voice was hoarse, low, and seductive. His eyes, framed by thick lashes, held a captivating power.
I could have gazed into his eyes forever, losing myself in their depths. Time seemed to stand still as he placed his hand gently on the mattress, tension filling the air. My heart pressed against my ribs, my throat grew dry and sore. His other hand reached for my nape, his thumb rubbing soothingly against my skin as he repeated his question, "Are you okay, love?"
Caught amid this enchanting illusion, I struggled to find my words. The proximity of this encounter made me uncomfortable, yet it also ignited a longing deep within me. As I gathered my courage, I knew that what I was about to say would shatter his heart.
"Get away from me!" I exclaimed, my hand instinctively coiling into a tight fist as I forcefully pushed him away, the impact of my palm meeting his chest. The surprise etched on his face quickly morphed into a mixture of annoyance and a subtle twinge of sadness, his brows furrowing in response. The air between us grew heavy with tension as we stood there, a frigid silence settling in the room.His presence had been overwhelming, invading my personal space without warning. I took a step back, creating distance between us, while the distant echoes of trumpets reverberated through the cold, stone walls of the castle. His retreat mirrored mine, his gaze never leaving me, before he abruptly turned and vanished into the labyrinthine hallways. Now alone in the room, the chill in the air seemed to seep into my bones, mirroring the icy ache within my heart.Sorrow consumed me as I grappled with the news of my mother's demise. There had been no time for mourning, no chance to properly bid her f
"Bring her to me," his commanding voice echoed through the grand chamber, each syllable carrying a weight that demanded immediate obedience. My eyes were fixated on his arm, adorned with an intricately designed tattoo that seemed to come alive as it snaked across his taut muscles. A regal crown rested atop his head, adorned with dazzling diamonds, emeralds, and rubies that caught the flickering light. A fine silk cloth draped over his chest, exuding an air of royalty and power. It was him, the same male I had pushed away earlier in the room, now exuding an aura of cold indifference. Slowly, he descended the majestic brick stairs that led to the throne, every step purposeful and commanding. The entire room seemed to hold its breath, enveloped in an eerie calmness, save for the murmurs that erupted in hushed whispers. Amidst the whispers, I could hear my name being called out, a mix of curiosity and anticipation laced in their voices. But it took just one word from him to silence them
'Why is that voice so familiar?' a question that dashed through my mind and got me on my nerves.I couldn't just drive my thoughts away from the voice I just heard pierce my ears. While I try to dissuade myself from the unnecessary thought and the decision I am about to make. The sound comes through again and this time, it is potent."Make your decision," The Alpha said terrifyingly.I heard it, but couldn't really make a decision at the moment. The sound oozing from the basement is something I couldn't shake off my head.'I kinda need to check it…' I make the decision right within me. I could feel my heart beating hard against my chest.I know I am about to make a choice, the choice that will change so many things in my life. It may be for the good or for the worse.Walking off immediately just to trace the sound, the Alpha was startled."Are you rejecting the Alpha!!!" That voice echoed through the walls of my auditory, but I didn't mind.I don't know why I am so courageous at the
My body begins to vibrate at different times. My eyes run through his muscles all at once and now, my heart is heavy… very heavy."Throw her in the dungeons" he said with his head raised.His face was so mean and immediately he passed the judgment, he used his side muscle to push me aside while he made his way out of my sight.My lips vibrate resoundingly. Now I know this is the height of it all. 'What happens next?' That question dropped on my mind like a metal hit another.While that thought sits on the steep of my heart, I feel two hands grip my hand firmly calling me back to reality. "What…?" That word just comes out of my lips and all I could do at that moment is to have my head look sideways intermittently.I started panicking at that moment. I feel a lot of strength streaming down my tiny muscles."Let me go…" I screamed on top of my voice. I know my voice would penetrate the walls of that basement, but what could it do?I tried to jack them off, but I couldn't. My strength f
I sit on the ground with my hand on my jaw. I couldn't help but think about everything happening to me.'At first it was my mother and now, it's me…' The confine is something I can't even wrap my head around.Having my eyes run through the whole thing is annoying and I feel so bittered within me.I know this doesn't suit me, but I just have to do something… something really quick.'What do I do?' a question that leaves my heart quelling for an answer but there is none to give. I feel heavy and so disappointed in myself.'How did I even get here?' I begin to run my head through so many thought process and I feel dead within me. I don't know that single action of mine would lead me here. Rejecting the Alpha could actually lead me to dungeon where I can't even escape. This is difficult for me to chew, I feel so sad and heavy within me.While I wander and have my head soil in despair. I heard the sound of the door. Having my eyes fixated there, the man that brought the meal walks inside
"Why are you standing so still?"That question pierced through my ear lobes and all I could feel is the sound of his breath."Why are you breathing so loud?" I asked without paying attention to what he said.I could see the fierce gaze that fixated on me. I can see the anger and the rage that runs through his face. He opens his mouth to speak, but I know what he is about to utter is something I wouldn't expect. It would be like a dagger that is stabbed into my heart."Don't ever answer a question with another question..!" Those words stamped on my heart and I could feel my heart shiver. I didn't know when a sweat fall on my face like a midst.I know I have to apologize that moment before he decides to use his tools on me. I know that would a disaster. The dungeon is bad enough, adding to it is something that would be extremely terrible. "I am sorry.." I had those word run through my lips with an eye flicker.He nods and have quick countenance change. "You haven't answered the quest
Alpha's POVMy breath wouldn't just fade away, neither will it sway a second. The thought of getting rejected I something that wouldn't leave my mind at all.It's like I am buried in the midst of what had happened. I couldn't just wrap my head through her behaviour, because it was so annoying to me.I feel like getting on her really hard anytime I get to meet her even with her nauseating behavior.She is a good person and I know it. That is the reason behind picking her over Akira, but now, I guess Akira is much better.I didn't expect to be rejected that way. I feel so bad having my thoughts wrap around endless annoying battle.'Something different..' even with her rejection and my trial to be so mean to her. I find myself trying to help her at every tons. There is something different about her and I could feel it in my bones, but I can't really say anything about what is actually wrong with me because why would I feel she is different in the first place.Just then, something flashe
Alpha's POVHearing that voice is something that got my legs wavering and turned my eyes bulging really out. I didn't expect that out of the blue, although it was impromptu. I turned my head to see where that is coming from, but I just couldn't get it."Did you hear that voice?" I asked her with my face sparking light."You didn't see grandpa?" She asked me with a finger point."Grandpa," I retorted with a long surprise on my face. I wasn't expecting to have him here already and immediately I turned to see.'He is really there..' I let out a heavy sigh that got my nostrils gnawing out a lot of air. "Why the huge surprise, grandpa!" I asked with a lot of tension streaming off my veins."Are you that surprised? I thought you have your ears and toes sniffing around," he said.I grind my teeth one to another and you my had to press my nose gently, sniffing some air, I said, "I have my ear around and that is true. But you are an insider and you know I can't monitor every of your steps, b
