LOGINSABLE'S POVAlpha Bryn stared at me like someone who had probably gone nuts, and for a moment I felt that way as well. My gaze trailed off to Knox and he had his eyes fixed attentively on me. This time, it wasn't judgy, just confused. “This is why I have issues talking about politics with women.” Alpha Bryn finally said. He looked uninterested, and for a second i stared at him wondering what the fuck he was still doing in my chamber. Maybe I shouldn't have let him in, but yeah, he let himself in even before I could get to the door. He also served himself wine, the blackcurrant wine I'd kept aside for Knox, rude of him.As much as I wanted to understand why everything was happening, I knew I couldn't beat myself up with it. Not that I haven't tried. I'd thought of going over to see the corpse, tormenting myself even more. Probably listening to the kids mother wail out loudly knowing it could have been praise's to me if I was attentive enough.But Knox wouldn't let me do that. In
KNOX'S POV“Maybe we should ask you and Sable what you know about a kid going missing and getting killed.” I frowned in confusion. Why would he even think that?I followed him up until he got to the Beta's wing. I wasn't done asking him questions, or better still, I hadn't even begun. “I was thinking of moving Sable into my chamber, you know so she could get more love from her husband.” Alpha bryn mumbled, clearly teasing me. “She's fine here.” I simply said. “Her uncle doesn't think so.” I frowned in irritation, since when did Knox care about what someone else had to say and worse a person like Corvin. “I doubt you care about what Corvin has to say about treating Sable,” He scoffed, turning his gaze after hearing me speak. But then his gaze turned back to the lobby. “Mmm, look who's running away.” He called out. I turned and found Sable walking towards us. She'd just stepped out of her chamber. I wondered where she was headed. She looked pale still, her eyes heavy like she'd no
KNOX'S POVThe body was fully covered when I arrived at the scene of the murder. It wasn't in my jurisdiction to investigate crime, but this was on another level. The park's soldiers hovered around, searching for clues inside and as well outside or the park's border. But nothing was found. It was clear that whoever did this was a skilled individual. But why? Why a kid that had committed no crime? Not even royalty, but a servant. I would have understood the motive if royal blood was involved. We could see that as probably a retaliation, or an attempt to erase the Alpha's bloodline. But no, this wasn't any way related to the Alpha. I lowered myself to the ground, slightly pulling the sheet that covered up the body.“Fuck!” I muttered underneath my breath as I stared at the body. The sight right in front of me was seemingly inhuman. I pulled away, looking at the soldier who stood behind me with a moulded face.“Who found the body?” I asked, my gaze fixed on the covered sheet.
SABLE'S POV I stared into the bone broth soup right in front of me and I could no longer imagine myself having a taste of it. The remaining words of Madam Rosa seemed to fall on deaf ears and all I remained focused on was the part she'd mentioned the brutally murdered kid. The cries replayed itself in my head. Over and over again. His loud wails that suddenly turned into whimper and then silent cries that had eventually faded off. It was real. Or maybe just a coincidence? I shook my head lightly. That couldn't be it. A child wouldn't be found dead all of a sudden, right after I heard the cry of a child during the night. I suddenly understood. There was pain, at the same time fear in his voice. I should have known, I should have alerted the park's guard or something. Everything happened right at the Parks border, it wouldn't have been so hard
SABLE'S POVIt was the dream again. I found myself in a dark space, cupped up at a corner with my head buried into my thighs. I had my ears tightly shot but the loud scream from a distance wouldn't fade off. The voice grew louder and louder and for a second I swiftly looked above to be sure it hadn't gotten to where I was. But there was nothing. Just darkness as thick as the cloud. The scream turned into loud howls of wolf's. Like they were being tormented and were calling out for me. I couldn't do anything and remained crutched on the ground. Just then, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I threw my head up in fear but couldn't see anything. A hand gripped firmly to my wrist and I screamed out loudly. I pulled my eyes open, sweating profusely as I shivered in fear. My throat ached lightly, like I'd been screaming all along. I felt a hand gripping firmly to my both hands startling me for a second. I jerked
ALPHA BRYN'S POVI hadn't gotten fully into my bed when my door swung open. Apparently, mum had followed behind after I left the dining hall. I stared at her, and then behind her wondering if she was truly out of her mind. But I guess there were a few traces of sanity in her anyway. She walked in alone, shutting the door behind her. “What do you want this time Ysoria?” I asked, rolling my eyes off her in frustration. She didn't say a word to me, but only walked towards me, humming excitedly. She sank into the chair next to my bed, heaving out loudly before finally speaking. “You left the dining hall without saying goodbye son.” She mumbled. “Like you care?” I asked. “Of course I care, Bryn. Don't make me look like a bad mum.” She had a mischievous grin on her face as he spoke. “Well you are a bad mum.” She shrugged her shoulders without responding to my words. “You've been a
KNOX'S POV I stormed onto the golf course like a man walking into a battlefield instead of a game. My range hadn't eased up even for a bit even after the long reckless drive, I still wanted to do more, I still wanted to get these thoughts off from my head so badly. The quiet elegance of the club o
SABLE'S POV Madame Rosa ended up confusing the shit out of me. I definitely would have been okay with not knowing anything rather than knowing a twisted truth. Now I knew there was something wrong with him and the cure was love or whatever bullshit she had said. How the fuck was I gonna love a man
~SableUp close with the stranger, the shadows melted away and my bravado almost did too.Holy shit..!The man was… fucking handsome! Like, stop-your-heart-and-then-kick-it-into-overdrive handsome. He was older, maybe early forties with little crinkles at the corners of his eyes that suggested he’
~Sable“Sable! You get your scrawny ass back here, you little fucking shit! What the fuck are you up to now!”The scream rang far behind me into the night as I ran.The night was harshly cold with the cold air filling my lungs at every gasp but it was nothing compared to the sound of Corvin’s voice
