ALPHA GREY

I ran like a madman and climbed atop a tower.

There, on the highest point, I shifted to my werewolf form and howled the loudest I ever have, calling for my men to gather to me. At first, there was no response, so I howled again, and this time some dark figures started to rush towards the bottom of the tower. An arrow whizzed past my ear as I looked down upon them, and another arrow struck me full in the chest, sending a hurt through my body.

They had only turned on my murderous instinct, and raging, I jumped to the bottom of the tower where they were gathered. The first of them to attack came at me without warning in the form of a shadowed figure lunging from the dark, his blade glinting in the faint moonlight.

I waited for him to come to me and drove my fist into his gut, while he coughed something wet and warm on me as he doubled over. I did not give him time to recover, seizing his wrist and twisting it until I heard the crack of his bone. With two more of the rebels

  • THE ALPHA'S MATE IS AN ASSASIN   THE RE-APPEARANCE

    GEMMAIn that one fleeting moment, both our eyes met, and I knew he had seen me as well.I looked straight at him, waiting to see if he would ask Alpha Grey about me, but he only started to ask Rose some questions about the Northern Province. The woman answered all, while I tried to find a corner to hide in. It was all coming back. The pain and heartache of being cheated on by her mate and with the one person she thought was her best friend-Seline, of having to hear the moans and to smell the sex reeking from their bodies, of the smile of victory she had on her face when she knew that she had seen them, and the pain she felt when he grabbed her by the hair and rammed her face into that door. It was all coming back to her, and it was hurting her."And that is Gemma," Alpha Grey's voice rang out. "She is important to me."I looked at him and for once, appreciated him for not shaming me. This had to be the stark contrast between the two men-for while one did not hesitate to shame me, th

  • THE ALPHA'S MATE IS AN ASSASIN   FROM THE PAST

    GEMMAI thought myself crazy when sleep eluded me for a long time that night.The words echoed in my mind in the exact way in which he spoke them, the sound sharp and cold in my ears and heart. My place in the harem.Not beside him as his lover, not as the woman who had shared his breath and his body in frantic waves of lovemaking in the cave from the night before. It felt as though I was just another piece of his collection of women, a trinket to be stored away until he desired me again. I had hoped I would not return to the harem, but it was where he wanted me, and the sweet, familiar scents of jasmine and sandalwood greeted me once again as I entered the harem. The other women sat on silk cushions, smoking or drying their skins off or indulging in whatever hobbies they thought would make them more attractive to Alpha Grey.All of it stopped when they saw me again, and they started to confer with one another, the whispers leaving their mouths and their eyes alight with some dark e

  • THE ALPHA'S MATE IS AN ASSASIN   GOING BACK

    GEMMA I woke up and sat up first thing in the morning, trying to remember all that happened from the previous night, and one by one, the memories came, making me smile with glee.The cave was silent and without a single sound save for the soft breathing of the horse as it sat on the cave floor, the faint rustle of leaves outside and the chirps of the morning birds in the trees. My eyes looked back at Alpha Grey's naked body, and thinking of how he dove into me only hours before made my body ache with forgotten pleasure, a reminder of the night before. I tried to find my clothes, but my motions only caused Alpha Grey's eyes to blink open, meeting mine with a warmth I hadn't seen in him since he put Alfred to death. We smiled at one another, and for once, I didn't feel like an accessory. I felt like his to own and love."Is it morning already?" he asked lazily as he reached out with a hand to brush back a wild lock of hair that had gone out of place and fallen across my face.I nodded

  • THE ALPHA'S MATE IS AN ASSASIN   FIRE

    GEMMAThe fire crackled between us, throwing shadows across Alpha Grey's face. With Alynna sleeping comfortably in his lap-we had all come to accept that it was her new bed, Rose sitting quietly while staring at the fire, her eyes so blank that they gave nothing away-though I had no doubt that she would be thinking of her lost husband, and myself who sat apart, the warmth of the flames barely reaching me because I was so clouded by my thoughts that I was left detached from anything surrounding me. I only wondered if I mattered to him.He hadn't even said anything about me when he spoke of leaving, as though I were nothing but an accessory to him, as though I meant nothing. Nothing at all...The hours went past and the night deepened, and Rose soon took Alynna away from Alpha Grey and inside one of the rooms to sleep. For my own part, I stayed by the fire, staring into the orange flames until Alpha Grey's voice broke the silence."Gemma," he said, his voice low and rough. "Come with

    GEMMAThough everything cleared up, he remained moody and aloof till night.With everyone now aware that he was the Alpha, Rose and Alynna's house were filled with people who had come to see him and to pay their respects. What I found amusing were the gifts they brought to him which ended up being even far more than what Alfred and his men could gather. Even far into the night, there were still so many visitors, so that the Alpha had to move elsewhere for Rose and Alynna to sleep in peace in their own home.The next day came and he was still speaking to those who came to see him, placing himself in a distance that allowed the house to be free. That was when a number of women came to visit, to express their surprise that the Alpha had been hiding in a house just as small as theirs. I do not know if they knew that I could hear them, but it was to my hearing that they started to ask Rose how human he was and if he ate, slept, peed, and even breathed. I stood listening to them, wondering

  • THE ALPHA'S MATE IS AN ASSASIN   RED

    GEMMA I did not know much about Alfred. I didn't even know him.Yet when they returned so quickly that I wondered if Alfred was close by, and with him hanging between them as the crowd started to curse and spit, I felt pity for him. It was like watching the highest mountains crash into the sea and seeing the world turn upside down in a supernatural twist. I barely recognized him when they dropped him at the Alpha's feet too, his red hair taking up enough of the dust on the floor and mingling with it. His once-fine cloak, a beautiful work of art threaded with gold thread, had now become a disgraced ruin, streaked with dirt and blood. At the sight of him in a state that was so vulnerable, the crowd surged forward, their moving sea of heads looking to me like a tide of fury that I was caught up and trapped in. Around me, mothers clutched their children while spitting curses, and the elders did the same, throwing saliva into the dust. I pressed my lips together at the sight of all this
