CHAPTER 16–What is a nightmare?ALPHA REXThe nightmare comes after the black out. But what really is a nightmare if it’s a distant memory from a strangled past? Nothing but a fearsome beast that has lost its claws. ♣️♣️♣️“What is the most painful part of having another being inside of you?” Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick…“I am a werewolf. An Alpha Male. Of course, I have something inside of me. My wolf.” I replied monotonously, my eyes fixed on the swinging pendulums in front of me. Back and forth they went. They made me chase them with my eyes so much that I couldn’t blink. The silver balls enchanted me, kept me in an intentional dark haze so that every ticking sound is aimed at breaking me, setting my brain on fire so whoever is trying so hard to get access into my mind is granted a free pass. It was hard but I wasn't going to let them into my head. Take the one thing that has helped me to cope. “That is not the right answer, Rex. Answer truthfully.” The voice coerced. The da
Chapter 17: The guest prisoner. EUDORA.Time crawls when you are at your worst. At least it does for me. It did from the very moment I turned eighteen and it is still the same. It was why three days in an unfamiliar and dangerous territory seems to me like I have spent years of my life here. I have never felt this much anxiety being in a place and the feeling was nothing like the little yet traumatizing time I spent back at Alpha Tauren’s pack. It was terrifying not knowing what was coming for you.Nerve-wracking to not have an idea of when your life would come to a complete halt all over again because somehow, you got snatched from the claws of a monster into that of a bigger monster. That was how being in the Angels and Banes pack has felt and every single day I spend here takes even more from me. Being in a fancy room doesn’t change the fact that I felt like a prisoner there. The room was more of a prison than a homely place for a ‘guest’ as I had been called by the old Gamma w
Chapter 18: Eyes that change with time. EUDORA. Outside of his door, I tried hard to steady my breathing. I looked down at myself like any crinkle on my borrowed dress could tick him off or a single hair out of place would make him run wide like he did back at Alpha Tauren’s room. One thing I made sure to keep properly hidden under the wig was my multi-colored hair. No one could see that. Especially not him. With shaky and clammy hands, I turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. That familiar scent hit me before anything else. And like the first time, it almost knocked me over. I didn’t have to see him to feel his presence, thick and prominent in the air. There was not a breathing space that didn’t have him written all over it. The room was just like him. Dark. Hazy. Almost suffocating like it would snuff the life out of you. He was nowhere around and I trudged further into his space. I was startled the moment my eyes caught a painting on the wall. Heavens! It was huge eve
Hello dear reader, Littlest writer here! If you haven’t noticed, this is my first werewolf book and I almost gave it up countless times because it just didn’t feel right and that storyline messed with my head so bad. But I’ve decided to continue anyway and give it my best and hope that you love the idea as much as I did when I first started it. Please, stick around and let this beautiful story unravel. Now, the main purpose of this short note is to bring to your attention something you might find confusing. Most of Alpha Rex’s POV would begin with memories of his past that will all make sense as the plot unravels and at the beginning and end of each flashback(whether as a dream or not) I use this emoji “♣️” to make it easier to tell the past and the present apart. I hope this explanation is clear enough for you! Thanks for adding my book to your library and finding it worth the read. Please leave comments as well as they make me feel better about my writing! I hope to write more b
CHAPTER 19: Their weakness. ALPHA REX.Sometimes, the memories of the past bite harsher when your eyes are open and the world around you isn’t bleary from a nightmare.♣️♣️♣️“He’s awake.” My eyelids were forced open by gloved fingers and bright light from something no smaller than a pen stung my eyes. It made me wince and struggle to have my eyes closed enough to get away from the bright light.The damned scientist was here again. And he wasn’t alone. He brought a guest. One of whom the marks by the side of my bed represented. One of whom I would kill right after I have clawed out the chest of the damned scientist. A slow death that didn’t need bloodshed to make an impact on their lives forever. The light was taken away and when I opened my eyes again, I saw her. She hovered over me like a dark cloud and there was that familiar look in her silver eyes, a glassy sea that mirrored mine. She smiled. I hated it because it was fucking sincere like she was really happy to see me. I was
CHAPTER 20–Keyword is “Kill” Eudora.Lillian pulled up from the floor and exited the room with me. I had my arms wrapped tightly around the old Gamma, putting most of my weight on her as my legs were too heavy to walk out of there on their own accord. Despite how heavy I no doubt was, Lillian didn’t complain, neither did she let me go till we were totally out of the room and back in the safety of mine. The moment she locked the door behind us, I let her go and fell to the ground heavily, gripping my chest as it heaved from a panic attack that was fast stealing my breath away from me. I wheezed and coughed. Tears streamed out of my eyes because of how hard it was to breathe. Death. It felt like it was finally ready to claim me and save me the misery that my life has become. I became aware of Lillian’s presence behind me. The old Gamma put a hand on my hunched over back, patting it lightly seeminly to help me overcome my plight. “Breathe, Eudora. Let yourself breathe.” She whispere
CHAPTER 21–How it feels to be weak. ALPHA REXI almost forgot how it felt to be weak. The last time I felt it was before this new being formed inside of me and the only other time I felt it was when I met her…♣️♣️♣️“Rex…I brought you a friend.” I wasn’t strapped to a chair or the bed. This time, they had me in a barricaded cell that is nothing like the conventional one that has enough space for one to put their hands or head through. It was blocked in all corners with only a little space for me to see through and another one close to the ground probably for food to pass through. I was caged like a beast. It was beyond me how they managed to get a really large cage in here but I wasn’t surprised they were able to put me in here. They did it while I was unconscious, the way they liked to keep me because they knew how crazy I get and how much I fantasized about killing my captors. Keeping me in this cage was probably because of the other pair of eyes aside from that of the scienti
CHAPTER 22–I am the dinner. EUDORA.The rest of the week in the Angels and Banes pack was peaceful. Too peaceful for a pack said to be borne out of chaos and destruction and for someone like me whose life went to shit in a couple of days. I couldn’t say I enjoyed the peace and quiet when the world inside of my own head was a mess but I still reveled in the joy that the world outside of it wasn’t calling for the end of me.At least not yet. Since I remained in the designated room on the Alpha’s home, I had no reason to see him. It was almost as if he hasn’t decided on what to do with me after the traumatizing experience in his room the way he regained consciousness. I hoped to the goddess that he kept it that way. I didn’t know for how long but I just prayed I didn’t have to see him for as long as needed for me to recover from everything I’ve been through since I turned eighteen. Lillian was the only soul I set my eyes on after that day. She was the only soul I longed to see because
