My heart skipped a beat when I found Alpha Maseno waiting at the gate. It was already past midnight, and I didn't expect to find anyone awake, let alone Alpha Maseno. He had always been a night owl, but this late hour surprised me. Curiosity piqued, and I approached him cautiously, wondering what could have brought him out at such an unusual time.My wolf kept shifting uncomfortably at the back of my head, making me more worried. Alpha Maseno called my name, but I didn't respond. It's not that I didn't want; I wanted to, but my stupid voice box couldn't let me utter the yes word. I could feel the frustration building up inside me as I desperately tried to respond to him. The silence between us grew heavy, filled only by the restless whispers of the night. I wished for a moment that my wolf could speak for me, as it seemed to understand my thoughts better than I could express them myself. He called again, but I still remained silent. Panic, guilt, and fear washed over me as he strode
“I wonder what mischef you have pulled today.“ I chuckled watching my beta as he smirked at the dissapearing figure ahead of us. He always had a knack for getting into trouble, but I couldn't help but admire his mischievous spirit.He turned to face me, a smile forming in his lips. “Huh? Why would you think that I have pulled a mischief. Come on, am I a five years old?“ I raised an eyebrow, amused by his attempt at innocence. "Oh, please, we both know you have a mischievous streak that even a five-year-old would envy. So, spill the beans. How deep is the hole you managed to dig him into this time?" He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Alright, alright, you got me. But trust me, this time it's nothing too serious. Just a harmless..you know what? I don't want to talk about Doctor Kedeva anymore." He waved his hands in dismissal.I stared intently at him and smirked. He licked his lower lip, tore his gaze from me, and stared at my lips. I raised an eyebrow, knowing that his a
After looking around for a while, I decided to let go of everything and go back inside to see how Sony was fairing. The scent of intruders still lingered, but it didn't seem like they would do anything bad. I was only left wondering if those people would go and harm my dad and granddad; thus, I turned and hurried down the dimly lit hallway and entered my office.I dialed my dad's number, which I had saved in the favorite section, and waited impatiently until it started ringing. Luckily, I didn't have to wait much because he picked up after the second ring."Maseno, do you know what time it is?" He answered the call, his voice full of concern and fatigue. I could hear the exhaustion in his voice, reminding me that it was late at night. Despite this, I couldn't help but blurt out my worries about the intruders. "There are intruders in my territory." I quickly explained the situation to him, describing the scents and the darting figures blending with the darkness."Oh, god. Are we unde
A loud knock at the door woke me up. I lazily got off the bed, wore my flip-flops, and walked to the door with both eyes still closed. I stood for a while, stretching and straightening my back to my satisfaction."Coming." I yelled at the person who knocked once again. The snapping and breaking of my bones brought relief to me because I could feel a lot lighter than when I had just woken up.I held the door's knob and pulled the brown door open.The moment I did that, the bright morning sunlight flooded into the room, causing me to squint. I rubbed my eyes, trying to fugure who the person was, who looked like she flodded with the sunlight, which looked so bright until it looked like clouds.“What is it?“ I asked the figure I thought it was Maria who had come to wake me up because she had done it since the day I arrived at Alpha Maseno's kingdom, but I was mistaken. I had almost forgotten that she was no longer nice to me.The girl, who I recognized as a maid because of the blue short
“How do you feel now, Sony?“ I asked as I walked back into the room. Sony was no longer in pain because he was now lying on his back and staring at the ceiling. I watched his facial expressions and smiled at how relaxed he looked. He looked as if calmness had washed all over his body.My eyes roamed around, but I didn't find Doctor Kedeva anywhere, so I guessed that he had stepped out and gone back to his room after he was done taking care of Sony. I had told my dad about the suspicion I held about him, and he advised that I shouldn't jump to conclusions but conduct an investigation instead.He advised me that my friendship with him would fall apart if what I had suspected him of turned out to be false. I really hoped that he wouldn't turn out to be a traitor, because I really don't know what I'll do. He is my best friend after all, and he was supposed to look out for me as I did for him.“Much better. Where were you?“ Sony's calm voice jarred my thoughts. I quickly snapped back into
I don't know for how long I fell asleep, but when I woke up, it was already dark outside. The room was filled with an eerie silence, making me wonder what time it could possibly be. Groggily, I stumbled out of bed and made my way to the window.I pulled back the curtains and looked in the distance. The sky, adorned with twinkling stars, greeted me. It clearly indicated that it must be late into the night. The moon cast an ethereal glow, illuminating the stillness of the surroundings and adding to the mysterious ambiance.I looked back at the bed and saw that Sony was still asleep. He loved the moon, and I was sure that he would have been mesmerized by the sight outside. I debated whether to wake him up and share the beauty or let him continue to dream undisturbed, knowing he would appreciate it in his own time.A knock echoed at the door, pulling me away from the natural spectacle. I hesitated for a moment, torn between answering the door and staying captivated by the moonlit scene. C
A continuous ringing sound made me jolt out of bed to see what was going on. Because I hadn't taken the quilt off me when I sprung out, I tripped on it, landed on my rear end, and rolled on the cold and hard floor before knocking on the table beside the bed.I forced myself to sit, rubbing and scratching the areas that ached most. "What the hell was that?" I asked myself, my eyes roaming around, looking for the source of that noise.I caught sight of the white bedside clock that was still ringing loudly and buzzing around as an effect of its own vibration. I cursed, pulled myself to my feet, and walked to it.With anger surging through me, I grabbed it and smashed it against the wall. It stopped ringing the moment it made contact with the wall and fell, breaking into a million tiny pieces. Silence returned to the room, and I took a deep breath to calm myself down.My eyes caught sight of the black quilt still lying on the ground. I scooped it with my leg and angrily threw it back on th
“What the hell, dude?“ I walked to the couch where Beta Kelvin was sitting and grabbed him by the collar. My anger boiled over as I confronted him, unable to contain my frustration any longer. I needed answers for what he had come looking for in my kingdom.I and he are not friends, and I doubt if we will ever be. The only thing that was running through my mind at that moment was that his asshole of an Alpha had sent him to come and provoke me because, after all, they loved picking fights.“Relax Maseno. Since when did I try to hurt you? I have been telling you for so many years now that I am nothing like my Alpha, but you don't believe me, do you?“ He gritted his teeth in anger, stood, and dusted the collars of his shirt.I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his words. It was always the same excuse, trying to distance himself from his stupid Alpha's actions. But actions spoke louder than words, and I had seen enough of their pack's behavior to know better.“And why do you expect me to
