LUTHER'S POVAfter a moment of staring at me with shock in his eyes, Henry got up from the sofa and paced slowly towards the wall as I gazed at his back. He turned slowly and we made eye contact. "Luther, what did you just say?" he asked with shock in his voice."I said that I raped Whitney," I said bluntly as I resigned myself to fate. He suddenly smiled and said, "I know you are not serious. You are just pulling my leg, right?""No, I am not pulling your leg. I am dead serious." For a moment, he stared at me in disbelief. Then, he walked back towards me, sat on the sofa and we gazed at each other. "When did it happen?" he asked with an incredulous expression. "About a week ago.""Was it before Whitney fell ill?""Yes. It was soon after the rape she fell ill.""Oh, my goodness! Are you by any chance insinuating that it was because you raped her that she fell ill?""I guess so," I said bluntly.Suddenly, I saw rage blazing in Henry's eyes. He stood up with a clenched fist and rush
LUTHER'S POV I laughed for some minutes and Henry was visibly afraid. He took a few steps backward as he gazed at me."Of course, I know that I cannot be the Alpha and it has never crossed my mind that I will be the Alpha because you are the rightful heir.""Good! Since you know that you can never be the Alpha, why do you want to have that silly discussion with dad?" I said as I walked back to the bed and sat down."That I want to discuss with dad about your reign when you become the Alpha doesn't have anything to do with my interest in the position. I know the position is yours and I am not competing with you for it. I just want dad to talk to you and maybe he can talk some senses into your head.""Hahaha... You are very funny. So, in your dumb head you think that I will listen to him? Even if he talks to me, I would still do what I like when I become the Alpha. Dad cannot tell me how to rule the pack. So, get that into your head!""Anyway, after I have discussed with him and he t
WHITNEY'S POVI was still sleeping in my room when a loud knock on my door woke me up. I yawned and stretched my arms. I rubbed my eyes and gazed at the door. After a few seconds, there was a louder knock. Who could be knocking on my door like that? I wondered. I doubt that it could be my brother cos he never knocks hard and he usually knocks once before he opens the door. People rarely come to see me in my room. The only people that come often are my family members and my best friend, Janet. If it's not any of them, it could be one of my colleagues that wants to check up on me? I thought. "Who is that?" I asked as I sat up."It is me, Henry," he replied behind the closed door. Henry is a nice guy. He is the only one I really like in the Alpha's family and we have always gotten along right from childhood. But why is he here to see me? I wondered."Henry, you can come in. The door is open."Immediately, the door swung open and Henry walked in and shut the door behind him.
WHITNEY'S POV"What the heck is happening here?" My brother said as he walked into the room with a small box in his hand which he set close to the edge of the bed. "Good afternoon, Martin," I greeted as Henry and I disengaged."Good afternoon, Whitney, how are you doing?" he responded without looking at me. He was staring intently at Henry."I am fine," I responded as I felt uneasy because of the way he was staring at Henry, however, I wasn't worried. Martin and Henry are not close but they have a cordial relationship. I have seen the two of them shake hands and exchange pleasantries several times over the years. Even though Martin rarely talks about Henry as well as all the members of the Alpha's family, I know that Henry is the only one he seems to like in the Alpha's family. I know he was staring at Henry out of curiosity cos he has never met him in my room. Martin is very inquisitive and I am sure that he would be wondering what he came to do in my room."Hello, Martin," He
WHITNEY'S POVI walked angrily down the hallway towards Luther's room. As I got to the door of his room, I looked around to make sure no one was watching me. Satisfied I was alone in the hallway, I knocked hard on the door. After a couple of seconds, the door swung open and Luther stood in the doorway as we made eye contact. I saw the surprise on his face as he gazed at me. He was about to say something but I wasn't ready to listen to him standing in the hallway cos I didn't want anyone to see me, especially my brother.I stretched out my hands and with all the strength I could muster, I pushed him out of my way, and he staggered to my left. I stormed into the room and shut the door behind me. I turned to face him and he was dumbfounded as he stared at me. I could see the shock and confusion on his face."How dare you?" I yelled as he leaned his back against the wall and was staring at me."I should be the one saying those words. How dare you barge into my room? Are you crazy?" he as
WHITNEY'S POVAs Luther lay on top of me, he pinned my two hands to the bed. I was panic-stricken as I started struggling underneath him. I couldn't believe that this was happening. Does this beast want to rape me again after just a week he violated me? I know I made a mistake by coming to his room but I will be damned if I allow him to have his way. He succeeded the first time cos I was in a state of utter shock but now it's going to be different. I will never let him violate me again. Never! I resolved."Luther, get off my body!" I screamed as we made eye contact. His eyes had grown a shade darker with lust."You are so pig-headed! Since you are as stubborn as a mule and think you can insult my mom and get away with it, I am going to teach you a lesson. By the time I am done with you today, you will learn how to curb your fiery temper." he said with a hoarse voice. "What do you want to do?" I asked with fear in my eyes."Are you so dumb? What does it look like I want
WHITNEY'S POVI ran to my bed and fell on it as I started weeping profusely. Within a split second, my pillow was soaked with my tears.My mind drifted back to all that happened in Luther's room. How did our quarrel escalate to the point where he wanted to kill me? We were just exchanging words before the whole thing escalated and the next thing was that he wanted to strangle me to death. I know I provoked him by insulting his mother, but am I supposed to keep quiet after he insulted mine? I can never keep quiet when someone insults my parents no matter who the person is aside from the Alpha and the Luna. I recalled how Luther tried to strangle me twice and how I struggled to breathe. I recalled how his eyes were blazing with anger the two times he almost snuffed out my life. There is no doubt in my mind that he wanted to kill me. The thought of it made me quiver in trepidation. If he had killed me, how would he have disposed of my corpse without letting anyone know? Perhaps, he co
HENRY'S POVI was furious as I left Whitney's room. I walked angrily down the hallway and stopped at the door of Luther's room. I knocked hard on the door and waited for a couple of seconds but there was no response. I knocked again and waited but there was still no response. Instantly, I was gripped by fear as I recalled that Whitney told me that she smashed a bottle on his head and he lost consciousness. I hope he is not dead, I thought as I became agitated. But he can't be dead cos Whitney said that she revived him before she left the room. Even though I know that my brother is evil, I don't want him to die. Besides, if he dies, my father and mother will not spare Whitney's life.After waiting for a couple of seconds and still no response, I turned the doorknob and the door opened. I pushed it slowly as my heartbeat was racing.I entered the room and stood by the doorway. My heart skipped a bit as I saw Luther lying motionless on the floor. There was a little pool of blood on th
