Being back to Evans was a relief even though I loved being myself, I didn’t want to risk it in the public just yet. Julian had his mask back on– the face of the Alpha, the face he showed to the public. Larisa was coming along. Apparently she had been moving around to different places and discovering new things there. Perks of being a rich werewolf. “It’s going to be so much fun having you here,” she whispered as I walked in front of the Alpha, with her on my left. “What?” I was surprised. She couldn’t possibly expect me to stay here. “You could stay here sometimes and we could do more sleepovers!” I stiffened. I couldn’t leave my family like that. I had almost forgotten about my responsibilities that night, and the day after. I had felt guilty the whole way back home. *** When we got to his office, everyone had relaxed a bit. I still took my place behind Julian’s chair. This was still my job, and I couldn’t lose focus at my workplace. A maid walked inside with three thick enve
Julian had asked me to live at his house. His private house. And I was shocked to say the least. When I asked him why, he said he’d want me to be safe after he was going to announce the new laws. He said there would be a possibility of a civil war. But I didn’t want to hide, I wanted to fight. I didn’t want to seek protection just because I liked Julian. I wanted to stand by him and fight for him, and for my and our human rights. He knew I would say that, but he still kept the offer open. It was still many days until Julian announced the new laws. His alliances in the other regions had already begun their work– protect humans, punish the criminals and pay the workers the amount they actually deserve. *** It was around four in the evening when Matthew came into Julian’s office smiling from ear to ear. Julian greeted him and asked him why he was here. “Evans and I have something planned, Alpha… if you could please allow Evans to hangout with me the rest of the day, I’ll be grateful.
“Do you think it’s true?... about the statue?” I asked as I removed my jacket, resting it on top of the chair. We were in Julian’s room and he was sitting on his bed still in his work clothes as he watched me. “Maybe,” he said, a little distracted as if mentally he was somewhere else. “Would you… would you be willing to try it with me?” I asked quietly. He snapped back to the present and looked at me, his eyes wide with shock. “Would you be okay with that?” I nodded. “I guess so,” He then smiled wide and leaned on his arms backwards, “I’m sure you are my mate, but we’ll go there and test that statue out soon.” “Okay,” I smiled as I kept my weapons belt on the table. There was still something I wanted to ask Julian, and this seemed the right time. “Julian… that night, how did you know where I was?” Julian’s expression hardened and he straightened up, bringing his arms on his lap. “I couldn’t sleep that night… I went out for a walk but I couldn’t get you out of my head.
Phase one was the first step to get rid of Human discrimination– Getting rid of all enslaved humans. In the west and the east; the two Alpha’s– Jiya Williams –who took her husband’s place after he was brutally murdered by Werewolves, because he freed all human slaves. (Julian had told him to wait for his signal; but he went ahead and did it anyway.) And Caleb Long– the Alpha of the east region. The south was ruled by Julian’s good friend - Gabriel Allen. The first trip was to the east. Jiya Williams was a magnificent woman. Her brown skin glowed under the sun as she stood near the doors of her grand mansion, where the entrance was decorated with flowers of all colors. It was as if she had added life to her lands. Everywhere you looked, it was perfectly crafted, colored and kept. The doors, the houses, the crops, the lands, the markets and most importantly– the people. It was difficult to believe that this place would be anything less than peaceful. But not everything that glitters is
This is the story set in a universe where the Werewolves rule over the planet and the humans are their slaves. The Werewolves have left only half of the human population. Some of them were killed and some turned and took their places in the packs all around the world. The humans work and pay their taxes to the Alpha of their country. The Alphas are what kings were to humans. The Werewolf hierarchy is as follows: Each kingdom is ruled by an Alpha, Usually, the Alpha title is passed on from generation to generation but if someone from the lower ranks dares to challenge the Alpha to a duel, a fight to death, and can show his dominance and his strength then he would be declared as the new Alpha. The Alpha’s right-hand man or ‘the false Alpha’ is the Beta - the second in command. Can replace the Alpha in case they are not around. Beta’s acts as the advisor and the only person with whom the Alpha maintains direct contact. A bond between the Alpha and its Beta is stronger than blood. Bet
“I can’t find my pin!” I said as I looked frantically around the mirror. “Ethan! Pins please! I need them.” In a few seconds I heard shuffling outside my door. The door opened slightly, a small hand popped out holding my pins. “Here you go sis,” I smiled as I took the pins, “Thank you,” Looking in the mirror, I relaxed and pinned the cloth in place. The binder was tight enough to let me breathe. I pulled on my father’s old robes, and then the pants. I quickly ran a hand through my short hair and tied the scarf around my nose and mouth. This helped with two things– cover my face, and change my voice a little bit. When I went to grab my boots, my eight year old brother came and hugged me tight. “I’ll miss you Eve!” I smiled as I hugged him back, his soft hair grazed my face. “I’ll miss you too! Have fun at school.” I pulled on my boots and gave one last smile to my mother before I left the house. Walking outside as a guy was so much easier than a girl. People didn’t sta
The mansion was decorated with fresh flowers and white twinkling lights. The Alpha had gone to the Benjamin Hall to check how the decorations were done and I, being his bodyguard, had followed him. The hall looked like something out of a fairytale. Twilinking lights, white and red flowers surrounded the whole hall’s perimeter and the staircase. There were chairs and tables set at one corner, and at another a buffet was being set up. Men and women were hard at work. And they were all human. The way they had decorated this place was extraordinary. I fell in love with it. I tried to not break my composure of a man and a bodyguard, but the beautiful room had me smiling in awe. I could only imagine how it would look like at night when all the candles would be lit up. Bodyguards and soldiers were to be stationed outside the hall. Humans except for human women who were partaking in the Ball were strictly prohibited. Only fifty human slaves served at the ball excluding the five musicians.
Morning came early. It felt like I had only slept two minutes ago. I quickly went through my morning routine. I had packed extra binders. This trip was for about a day or two depending on the Alpha’s mood. I had no idea why he was going to another town, but it was my job to go wherever he went. At sharp seven we were sitting in the car. I was sitting shotgun with his driver at my side and the Alpha behind. The Alpha as usual hadn’t spoken a word. He looked like he hadn’t slept at all. In two hours we had reached the town. It was small and green. But the prettier it looked, the scarier it was. Human slaves were tied with ropes and were being beaten on pedestals. The Alpha stopped the car, and we went outside. The crowd parted as they sensed the Alpha’s presence, I led the way ahead of him. And I could see scared faces staring back at me. A woman from the crowd fell at the Alpha’s feet. “Sir! Sir please! Help my son! He’s being punished for nothing!” The woman was skinny in a way th
