Andrea looked up at Alpha Damien, intrigued by the serious expression on his face, waiting for him to speak."Andrea, I came to talk to you about something important," he began, his voice steady. "As you may know, there is a conflict between the twins, and it's affecting the pack."Andrea's heart sank at the mention of the twins. She had seen the way the family was being torn apart by their feud. Even the pack members have heard about the rift between the twins as a result of the bowl of contention of the throne. She had even heard some people whispering at the mall about supporting Lucas to become the alpha. Again, she overheard an argument between two people where one had taken the side of Lucas and the other took the side of Damon. And just like that, they got into a heated argument. Andrew knew it was heartbreaking to watch as once loyal pack members were forced to take sides. She had hoped that the twins would come to a resolution on their own, but it seemed that wasn't going
Sierra was in her room, her mind wandered as to why her daughter has been cold to her ever since she returned from Peter's territory. She sat in front of her mirror, applying her make-up for the occasion as she got ready – tonight was going to be a feast.Alpha Damien had decided to throw a dinner get together for the family and had hoped Lucas and Damp would attend. He enlisted Andrea to speak to them and she said she would try her best, however she didn't know how far she had gone with that.Sierra was worried because her daughter has never been distant from her before, Peter must've certainty poisoned her mind against her for sure. But what was the gravity of what he had told Andrea, to the extent that her daughter has refused to speak with her. Sierra sighed, bowing her head as she pondered on what to do. She couldn't let this bad air between she and her only child linger further, she really had to do something and quickly too. Eventually, she decided to speak to Andrea again a
As soon as Sierra left, Andrea found herself alone in the comfort of her own room. Her thoughts were all-consuming and chaotic, swirling around in her mind like a never-ending whirlpool. She couldn't shake the nagging feeling that something was off, that she had missed something important.The first thing that came to her mind was the twins' attendance at the upcoming dinner. Despite her efforts, she was still unsure whether they would be present or not. Andrea knew all too well that if she had told the brothers they would be attending the dinner together, they would surely refuse to come. She had to resort to a little white lie, telling Lucas that Alpha Damon had specifically invited him and made it clear that his brother would not be present. At the same time, she told Damon the exact same thing, assuring him that Lucas would not be there either.Andrea couldn't help but feel guilty for deceiving the brothers, but it was for the greater good. She needed them both to be present at the
Andrea felt her heart skip a beat as the door opened and in walked Lucas. She couldn't take her eyes off him as he strode confidently into the room, his every movement exuding power and authority. As he drew nearer, she couldn't help but admire his ruggedly handsome appearance.Lucas's dark hair was styled to perfection, framing his chiseled features in a way that made Andrea's heart race. His deep brown eyes seemed to hold a magnetic pull, and she found herself drawn to them almost against her will.As she took in his outfit, Andrea couldn't help but be impressed by the attention to detail. His tailored suit was expertly cut, emphasizing his broad shoulders and lean physique in all the right ways.The dark blue fabric was of the highest quality, and the way it hugged his body left Andrea breathless. His crisp white shirt and navy blue tie only added to the sophistication of his outfit, and the glint of the gold cufflinks that adorned his sleeves added a touch of elegance that left he
As Lucas arrived at the dining table, life seemed to spring back into the atmosphere, and he skillfully kept the conversation flowing with Sierra, Alpha Damien, and Octavia. Andrea, however, found herself unable to join in, her mind preoccupied with the events that had just transpired a few minutes prior. She struggled to find the right words to describe the sudden surge of emotions that had passed between her and Lucas. In fact, she couldn't quite put her finger on what exactly had happened.Her thoughts kept circling back to the same question- when had she developed these feelings for Lucas? The last thing she remembered was hating him for his role in her father's death. She wracked her brain, attempting to pinpoint the exact moment her animosity had turned into something entirely different. Her musings were interlaced with worrisome considerations about whether Damon would show up or not.As the dinner began to wind down, Damon still had yet to arrive. Andrea couldn't help but wond
Andrea was struggling with her conflicting emotions as she sat in the room with Lucas. She knew she had to keep her cool, but every time she looked at him, a surge of emotions would fill her up, leaving her feeling unsettled.She tore her gaze away immediately to distract herself from thinking about him, glancing around the room until her eyes fell upon Alpha Damien."Alpha Damien, may I ask you a question?" she asked, hoping to divert the conversation from the previous awkward moment."Of course, my dear. What is it that you would like to know?" Alpha Damien replied, meeting Andrea's gaze."I was just curious about the history of the pack, if you wouldn't mind sharing," Andrea said, genuinely interested in learning more about the pack's past."The history of the pack. That is a long and complex story. Are you sure you're ready for it?" Alpha Damien chuckled.Andrea nodded, a small smile forming on her lips. She was excited to learn more about the pack's history, and she knew that Alp
As Damon stormed into the room, he was oblivious to Lucas' presence until he caught sight of him lounging on the couch. He stiffened instantly, his fists balling up as his eyes narrowed with anger. The animosity in the air was palpable, and the moment Damon laid eyes on Lucas, it was enough to set him off."What are you doing here?" Damon growled, his voice laced with a venomous edge. He took a step forward, his eyes locked onto Lucas, his expression one of barely-concealed fury. Damon's gaze then fell on his family members, his anger growing as he studied each face, looking for an explanation. Finally, his eyes landed on Andrea, and he directed his fury at her."You didn't tell me he was going to be here," he spat out, his disgust palpable. Andrea was paralyzed, unable to respond as though held down by invisible ropes, the tension in the air easily rising.Sierra's sharp voice cut through the tension, "Andrea, why haven't you told them both the truth?" But Andrea knew that telling th
Damon and Lucas stood on opposite sides of the room, their jaws clenched and eyes locked in a stare-down filled with a mix of fury and resentment. Andrea could feel the tension thick like fog in the air. She knew that one wrong word or gesture could ignite a heated argument that had the potential of escalating into a full-blown brawl.Andrea furrowed her brow and inquired in a stern voice, "What is the problem between the two of you?"Lucas spoke up first, his voice edge-sharp and brimming with resentment. "He knows what's going on, Andrea. He just can't come to terms with his defeat."Damon sneered. "You think you won fair and square, Lucas? You're nothing but a cheat and a liar."Lucas flinched at the accusation but didn't back down, "I won the challenge fair and square, Damon. You are just making excuses because you can't handle losing."Damon laughed scornfully in response, "You believe that nonsense? Everyone knows you cheated. You went ahead without telling me, you even lied to
