My rebellion: the Alpha's prey

Chapter 1 Sheila's POVI ordered three shots of tequila, flashing a faint smile at the bartender. He returned a weak smile, filling the shots and placing them in front of me. I sat close to the bar counter in a Pythagorean bar, a drink house with a weird name, expectedly stocked with crazy people - humans and werewolves alike. The werewolf world is a complex one. A world where power and control rules leaving the weaklings to suffer in turmoil.As I gulped the first shot, I enjoyed the hot, savory taste on the roof of my mouth. The bar was filled with sweet scents of daisies. My heart skipped a beat as I fidgeted, my mind racing with thoughts of the future.I counted down the hours to my birthday, thinking about all the things I would do, experience, and explore. The thrill of the unknown sent a shiver down my spine, and I smiled to myself.I brought out my phone and visited some dating sites, hoping to find my mate or something. Suddenly, I heard a muffled whistle and turned. A man i

Chapter 3Sheila's POV *Two days later*I sat down inside a cold old cellar with shackles bound to my wrist and ankles. Darkness swirled in my mind, my body aching from the previous day's ordeal after spending a full day yesterday locked in a cell like a common criminal. After I had recovered and Shirley had helped me get a little bit acquainted with how things worked in the territory I found myself, Luca immediately got to hear I was fully recovered and ordered the guards to bundle me and keep me behind bars until the night of the Moon bonding ceremony inorder to prevent me from scurrying away like his other Lunas did. Taking me to the dungeon didn't go down without a fight. I tried to fight my way out of being dragged into a rathole but that ended with blows and kicks to the face that made my jaw hurt so badly I thought I would fall off.And now, I was seated in a cell,all alone, frustrated and ignorant of what the future had installed for me.The clanging keys echoed down the c

Chapter 5Later at night Luca's POV The Moon shone brightly over the Dark Moon pack. An eerie shadow casts over the territory's wall. I sat down against my riffle, greasing and dusting off dirt that smeared to it. I was yet to hear from the search party I dispatched to look for Ella. My door creaked from a slight knock before and flung open. Hardin stepped in.“Any news from the search party on Ella yet?." I asked, anger flashed across my face.“They weren't able to trace her ____ . She's gone and moreover, you have a new mate now don't you? Why don't you quit with the chase?." Hardin asked,his lips curled in distaste.“ You don't understand Hardin. I want Ella found and executed. No one runs away from me without having a taste of my wrath.” “ I'll make sure she's found as soon as possible.” Hardin assured. His eyebrows arched as he unfolded an envelope." Alpha James sends his regards.” Hardin handed the letter to me .A sinister smile tugged away on my lips.A letter? Ryan, my i

Chapter 7James's POV I waltzed into the room where the pack elders were seated, waiting patiently for my presence before the council meeting kick-started. I took my seat on a wooden oak chair, crossed my legs over and adjusted my glasses.The elders were five in numbers. Each representing the four natural elements of water,air,earth and fire. And then the chief of the pack elders. Elder Claude. We sat around a round table with a chandelier light hung above the table, adding additional lighting to the room.“ We now begin this meeting!." Claude's voice, crackly and frail, echoed through the room. His voice quavered. An indication that he was heavily advanced in age. Silence swept across the room. “Who called this meeting and why did the person call for this impromptu gathering?." I asked. My eyes darted around.“Everyone has suddenly grown numb huh!?." I articulated." I __ I called for this meeting.” Claude finally found his tongue. Our eyes locked and his Adam apple bobbed. Ne

Chapter 9Sheila's POV “Nevertheless, I have a feeling we will make a great team." Luca smiled and took a seat on his king-sized bed.“You and together ruling our great empire!." Luca muttered My lips stretched out to a smile as I managed to maintain a steady gaze as Luca's gaze pierced deep into my soul.My eyes darted around the room. Exquisite beauty and top-notch interior design was just the description of the marvel before me. Everything I'm Luca's room looked perfect and in the right order and I instantly felt a sense of connection and relief to it.“ I would never team up with someone like you." I snarled back and Luca's lips pulled to a grin. The skin around his eyes folded making my skin crawl.“ I am quite fascinated each passing minute by your bravery ___ your unwavering confidence. I like you Sheila." Luca complimented and stood up. He took long strides to where I stood. His fragrance clinging to me like a bad omen. His height towered as he stared down at my perplexed fa
