"Raven...?" Knight got nervous when he lost all expectation of what Raven wanted a serious talk for."You really think she might poison me?" In a light tone, Raven waited till Allura was out of the room, making no move at neither the real cure nor the temp cure.It was the first time he really tried to go against the great Alpha in front of him, and magically, he calmed down and could think clearer like never before.He knew how to play the Alpha who had only his benefit in mind, and he just needed to make his moves right."I'm not saying that she has ill intention," Knight explained, trying to search for Raven's eyes, but Raven sighed with his eyes, low, "I know how hatred works, and she has been blaming you for what happened for too long to just shake it off overnight.""I see..." Raven sighed in a heavy tone, frowning as if the fact that he couldn't win his people's hearts over bothered him.And Knight fell for that instantly, because that feeling was genuine."I'm not saying that
Knight returned to his village after a perfect night with his mate, in a low mood-- it was only the beginning of a long wait that didn't have a time limit on, when being away from his mate for merely seconds seemed torture to him. It was only at the gate of the villiage did Knight rememebered -- Frost pledged to Rain in the mountain after Raven went in rage, though only for a short night, that merged the two packs before he gave the title back to Frost, meaning-- He was now an Alpha with no pack, again. And this time even his loyal rogues had left him. Just what he wanted right now -- he wanted to bury himself in bed and get some good sleep after the tiring visit of Raven's prison, hopefull he could sleep till forever-- That was the promised time of his mate's return, right? He was exhausted. "Alpha?!" Simon's shocked voice stopped Knight's legs when he was heading toward his little cabin, and Knight turned to look in shock, only to find-- More and more heads stucking out of t
"Knight! Where are you?! Raven?! Caleb?! Anyone?!" Simon's loud voice sounded through the whole pack, "What the fuck is wrong with the mindweb? Where is Knight and why is Raven the Alpha now?!"Shouting this was only Simon's way of waking up those who hadn't yet accepted his mindlink invitation --Simon couldn't force a joined mindlink of everyone in the pack, only an Alpha could.But he had no other choice.Everything was fine only a few hours ago--He woke up to the most peaceful and long-waited Christmas morning with his beloved daughter and lovely wife, to celebrate the last Christmas they get to spend in the forest--It was fine to live there when Knight had only a handful of guys to keep around. They cared little about things like houses, dresses, and holidays. But now with Knight becoming the Alpha, the pack could no longer just keep the rough rogues, but also werewolves with family and all.So Knight decided to accept Allura's kind offer and move his pack into a small town tha
In a dark cell, a man was hung in chains, blood dripping."Any last words, rogue?" A guy with a smirky face taunted, chewing the address as if it was a heavy insult. He trailed the whip in his hand along the muscled stomach of the man hung in chains, smirking even brighter when the rogue's body shivered slightly as the rough thong grazed through some of the deep cuts."Some." The rogue rose his head with a sneer, not the thin sweat on his nose nor the blood dripping from his jaw could dim that taunting grin, "Like how you imagine lynching me would go well with your good Alpha?""That's your last words?" The smirky guy let out a short laugh, but it didn't prevent him from swinging the whip again, leaving another scarlet stripe on the rogue's chest."Well, I AM a curiosity-driven person." The rogue curved his lips, taunting.The smirky guy rose the whip yet again, and the rogue quickly added: "Wait, wait, okay, so, I do want to know who is it that's taking my life. Will you indulge me t
"What the hell, Nate?!" Raven ignored Knight's taunt, snapping his head at Nate who froze in fear.Raven glanced around the room as he wrinkled his nose slightly -- the smell of blood was suffocating. Most of the torture instruments in the room were freshly used with blood all over. There was barely any place on Knight that was still intact:His gut filled with deep wounds and his chest with crossed scarlet stripes all over, even his shoulder looked out of its socket.Raven pulled out a handkerchief only to put it away, but that didn't escape Knight's eyes."So I guess the rumor is true then," Knight grinned at Raven, not seeming to notice that Raven just ignored him completely, "Alpha Raven is a clean freak.""It's hemophobia!" Raven glared at Knight, his frown deepened when his eyes landed on the countless wounds on Knight."Isn't that what I said?" Knight laughed, seemingly enjoying Raven's bothered look."It's just about blood -- Why are you here yet again?!" Raven realized he did
"You got there just in time, father!" Nate whined when he followed his father into the study, "The stupid kid was really going to whip me if it weren't for you!""Shut it!" Iron glared at his son, "It's Alpha Raven to you!""Father!" Nate protested in shock."It's Alpha Raven to you," Iron dropped his words one by one in a slow but threatening tone, "until we take control of the Alpha and the title. Do you get it?""Yes, father!" Nate grinned happily, and Iron shook his head with disappointment."You have got ONE job, to kill that rogue. What the hell happened back there?" Iron hung his coat on the hanger before he fixed his eyes on his son."I just want to teach him a lesson, father! He insulted you!" Nate whined in a mutter."And killing him is not enough of a lesson?!" Iron rolled his eyes as he sat down in front of his desk, "You just have to let your sadistic beast out and torture him!""I would have had my fun before I finish the job beautifully if it weren't for the fucking kid
Elena smiled elegantly, waving to the people on the stairs all Luna-like before she started the party.Raven stood far away from the happy crowd, drinking by himself.He wasn't a party person."Alpha Raven," a gamma bared his neck at Raven before he rose the champagne in his hand, "How generous of you to lend the Alpha house for the birthday party for Elena.""Of course, Alvin. Alpha's house is the pack's house, my father always says." Raven rose his own glass and took a sip courteously. Alvin was a loyal supporter of Raven's father, and also a relative of Raven's father's side.They shared the last name of White."So when do you plan to have a celebration of your own?" Alvin put on the parental smile."I don't do birthday parties, Alvin." Raven shook his head with a chuckle."I mean the celebration for a new Luna, Alpha Raven." Alvin was still with that parental smile, and Raven coughed hard at his words."I know all about the celibacy with you young people," Alvin chuckled, "But a p
"What the fuck, Frost?! You couldn't let me know there is someone else in the room?!" Raven hissed under his breath, his mind barely clear enough to remind himself that it wasn't the best time to shout.[I didn't notice!] Frost grunted, [You are the one in control!]"So, your wolf is called Frost? I like it." The man in front of him reached out for his throat, and Raven grabbed him by the wrist fast, at the price of losing the support of the door frame. The man chuckled and pulled his own hand back hard, dragging Raven to snap forward. Having no spare mind to feel embarrassed, Raven pulled his own hand out of his pants and threw a punch, which the man in front of him caught easily--"Are all your punches this weak, or just because it's me?""It's because--!" Raven burst out in shout, but the man quickly let go of Raven's hand and covered his mouth instead--"Shh, you don't want to lure people in here right now, do you?"It only then did Raven noticed the familiar tulip smell off the m
