NYALL'S POVWith all the events that had been going on in the pack, it's only by the help of the moon Goddess that I haven't gone crazy. It's been a whirlwind of event and in the middle of it all is the Alpha who got unfortunate to be mated with someone as evil as Khalan."Why can't he just forget her and get another mate for himself? The sight of her alone disgusts me and I hate her so much," I said to myself with my hands clenched into a fist. I continued to pace through the entire room like one that was searching for something. I heard a knock on the door just at that moment. It was Sharp and unfriendly. A frown formed on my face. "Who's that?" I queried, my eyes fixed on the door. There was no response at first."I said who is that?" I asked again, slightly raising my voice. "It's me. Open the door quickly. I have something to discuss with you sir!" I heard someone say from the door. I recognised it at that very moment.. I had grown accustomed to it after years of hearing it at t
KHALAN'S POVAs I sat on the floor of the dungeon that had come to become my house over time, I couldn't get rid of the guilt that was lingering on my mind. It was so strong that not even the thought of my son could get it out of my mind. Did I just say son? Well, There's no way I can be sure about that. Whatever the gender, I'm sure it's a boy."What is it that's bothering you?" A voice whispered to me. I was startled because it sounded so loud that I thought someone was in there with me. I turned my head around in search of who it was but there was no one there. I could feel the heavy thumping of my heart against my chest as I tried to decode who it was. "It's me and there's no need to be afraid," the voice responded in my comfort. It left me more puzzled and confused than I already was. My head banged suddenly. "Who are you and what do you want from me?" I snapped at once as I retreated from the depth of the dungeon where I was to where the light shone upon."It's me Khalan and y
NYALL'S POVI was dumbfounded at the sight of the man that was wrapped in the white linen cloth. The sight of it alone sent shivers down my spine. I began to pespt as well."What happened to him? Who did this to him? Weren't you all there?" I asked all these questions at once with my eyes darting around with reckless abandon. I still couldn't believe that the same person I had spoken to about two hours ago was lying dead in front of me. Tears trickled down my face at once."Hardin…" one of the men began but could proceeded before his tears choked his voice. I was pained the most."Hardin did this? Hardin killed him?" Blood flowed right to my brain as I clenched my hand into a fist."Yes sir, he did. He is responsible for all of these sir. The commander had gone in to speak to him for a while, hoping to convince him to leave the pack as peacefully as he could but then he didn't listen and then went on to kill him. We found him in… in… cold blood…" I shivered. My head banged."And wher
HARDIN'S POVMy hands quaked, my legs trembled and I felt my soul leave my body at that moment when I saw him lay on the floor dead, in cold blood. "What have I done this time around?" I inquired as tears began to trickle down my face. I never planned to kill him that way. What had suddenly come over me. But it didn't take a minute for me to return to my senses. I was Hardin and nothing in this world could make me feel as guilty as I was feeling at that moment. "No! Have you forgotten who I am? I am Hardin and Hardin fears no one," I said to reassure myself as my brain began to think of what to do before the men got to the house. I could hear the sound of their feets like the sound of a rushing mighty wind. I might not stand a chance of surviving if I allow myself to be caught by them. A devilish smile perched itself onto my face as an idea popped in my mind. I stood by the chair close to the door, muttered some incoherent words and slowly took its shape. For a second, everywhere
MADELYN'S POVHaving lived all my life in penury in my husband's pack, I decided to return to my pack, the pack I was born in… my parents pack. My husband had died about ten years ago and the pack members had shown me nothing but pain and misery. My entire life had known no more misery than I knew after the death of my husband. There was nothing left for me anymore. I had set out on the journey two days earlier and had only arrived the pack that hour. So much had changed since the last time I was there. There were new houses and the security was tighter, but what I noticed was that it was relatively silent than it usually is. I went around with my two young daughters, trying to locate the house that I had grown in. I couldn't. "What's going on? Why am I finding it difficult to locate where it is?" I wondered aloud with my both daughters Holding my hands. It was strange that I couldn't find the house that I had spent over half of my life in and it was starting to get to me. I turned
SONIA'S POVNothing seemed to make sense anymore. Neither Eric nor Hardin. They were all acting so slow to me. I was pissed as I continued to pace the breadth of the room where I was. I was exhausted and couldn't do anything anymore else I wanted to break down but then, there were more stuffs that required my attention in the Alpha's room and me not doing it would bring severe punishment to me but I dhfn give a damn about anything at that moment. All I wanted to do was to eat, rest and relax. "If only this girl called khalan has been taken care of, then I wouldn't have any problems," I said to myself with an evil look adorning my physique. As I laid on the bed, fatigued, I felt my entire body break down.I heard a knock on the door. It was short but sharp, startling me a bit. I was pissed to the marrow. When I wanted to do nothing but sleep, a good for nothing pig decided to come knocking. Pretending to be asleep worked just fine for the first few seconds, but somehow, the good for no
MADELYN'S POVI felt my entire world crumble right at my feet as tears trickled down my face. They had gathered in my eyes from the moment he announced the death of my parents but had only managed to flow down at that moment. I was in pain and nothing in the world could comfort me, not even the gentle and warm touch from my kids could do that. "Mama! Mama! What's going on?" Their weak frail voice seeped to me but I didn't give a damn. My parents, my sister and my brother.. No, this cannot be true. I do not believe him and I hide it not a bit. "Go away! You are lying to me!" I said to him as the tears choked my voice. I ran my hands through my hair again."You don't seem to believe me? It's fine… you can ask others about it and they would tell you the same thing… I'll like to take my leave immediately," he mumbled and then went off as swiftly as he could with his walking stick serving as support for his back.The moment he went off, the reality of his words dawned on me and I began to
NYALL'S POVAs I stood in front of her, various thoughts ran through my mind but neither of them seemed to correlate with what I was there for so I kinda shifted it to the back of my mind. "Would you like to calm down a bit or you're just going to go on shouting like you're some wild dog?" I snapped at her with my eyes fixed on her. She stared back at me and allowed a loud hiss escape from her lips. I laughed. It was kind of funny… I mean, the bravery she has. It was enviable and was the kind of courage I liked to see in women but not my woman. Lol."Alright… I'm calm already, so can you kindly go on to tell me why you are here? I do not know why I do not seem to trust either you nor Eric. I have no iota of trust for you especially after what you've done to me…""What have we done to you? I should be the one saying this and not the other way around. Do you know how many times you have attempted to murder the alpha? or do you think it's something you can just do because you want to do
