“My Alpha, Beta Tom has arrived,” one of the servants in Alpha Blake's house announced. “Alright send him into the reception room.”Alpha Blake starred a bit longer at the old picture. Sighing, he carefully laid it back in the old wooden box and pushed it back under his bed. Then he made it to the reception room.When Beta Tom saw him walk in, he stood up. “My Alpha, is everything alright? When I got your urgent message I was deeply worried and had to come at once.”Alpha Blake nodded with a small smile. Having Tom Carlos as his Beta lessened his worries. Asides the fact that he was deeply respectful, he was always there whenever he was called upon. sometimes Alpha Blake thought he was being too respectful especially as they were friends. “Yes. Thank you for coming.” He motioned him to sit. Alpha Blake let out a heave as he settled into the sofa. Beta Tom squinted at him. “You look troubled my Alpha. What is it bothering you?”Alpha Blake sighed again. “It's nothing. Tell me,
LIA BLAKEWith force I pushed open the door and stormed into my room. The moment I slumped onto my bed, all the emotions I thought I had held back broke free and tears streamed down my face. I clutched my face in my hands and wailed. I wailed like I hadn't done before. As my tears flowed, the memories of the day flooded into my head. A day supposed to be one of the best days in my life turned out to be a painful one for me. >Snatching myself up in the most pretty dresses I ever owned with a perfect make-over, the type I rarely do, I had dolled up myself for my school prom night. The last I would have as a high school kid. Yes, it shouldn't just be my last but my best as well, I had thought. I was totally over the moon and It wasn't just that I was attending my last school prom night but a part of it was that I would be attending it with my crush. I couldn't have been more excited. "Please have you seen Carlos?" "Have you seen Carlos? He is handsome and has
LIA BLAKE Phew! I drew in a quick breath. I was standing at the cliff of a mountain. The air was light and as it brushed against my skin, it caressed my pores and left me feeling refreshed. That moment, I got a chance to not feel miserable. How sad must my wolf have felt. We just thought…just maybe Carlos and I will ever get a chance to be together. I beat my chest and bit my lips suddenly feeling a surge of determination. Yes, it was just a crush. I have to be brave now. For myself and for my wolf and brush this lurking sadness off me. I gulped thickly as I felt my tears choke down my throat. Yes, this was the best thing I should do for myself. The thought of seeing Carlos gallivant the entire pack with his mate was just a lot for me to handle. Yes, call me jealous, but it hurts me everyday. Maybe someday the moon goddess will be kind enough to give me my own mate. If she is even kinder and listens to Jimmy's prayers, she would make him the best man in the whole wide world
LIA BLAKE"What the hell have you done to me?" I muttered in disbelief. Gosh, what happened to Lia Blake that I used to know? The last time I came close to looking this snatched up was last summer at the school prom night. Of course it didn't end well for me.She walked to the wardrobe and pulled out a white long lacy and extremely pretty dress. Wait…isn't that a …a wedding dress. "A wedding dress?" My eyes widened. She extended it to me and said, "Put it on…erm but before then I would like to say something…" Now this is beginning to get scary. Who exactly is this woman before me…She hung the wedding dress in one of the hanger, ran her fingers on it as though she didn't want to leave it but for some reason had to."You know, I have always been excited for this moment…my wedding, the night I get to be fully joined in marriage to my mate and love of my life…well…life doesn't always go as planned…" her voice went low. I could feel the sadness in her tone. Who exactly is she and why d
Lia BlakeI heard a rustling and creaking sound in my sleep. I forced my eyes to shut even more. All through the night, the cold had gotten worse and the entire hairs on my body had stood erect as the cold hammered against my body. I was a bit thankful for the wedding dress. The long length had been of help. A typical example of a blessing and curse. The air got colder and the terrible stench of the dungeon got worse by the second. I couldn't catch a glimpse of sleep even though I had my eyes shut most of the time. I did more stopping myself from breathing than trying to sleep. But each time I squinted my eyes towards the prisoner, he always looked to be sound asleep curled up in one corner of the dungeon. I wondered how he could have offended the Lycan King to find himself here, how long he must have been here and how many more days, perhaps weeks or months he had to stay here. Poor him. Lia, worry more about yourself. The thought of being his prison mate had goosebumps crawling
DERRICK KINGS"What is it, Damian? And why did you have to come here? You are stopping the guards from doing their duty." I frowned at Damian when we were away from the guards and the intruder lady. "Derrick, I know I shouldn't be doing this but think carefully about this…" Damian started, his playful grin gone from his face. "Think about what?""Her…you can't have her locked up, don't tell me you are doing this because of…"Because of what?" I snapped, feeling my anger surge. Knowing what exactly he was trying to bring up, I cut him off, not willing to reopen an old wound that moment. "She has a hand in the disappearance of Laura and must be held hostage until Laura is found." "Do you really believe she has a hand in Laura's disappearance?" Damian asked me. I looked at him, confused. "What the heck are you trying to say?" I clenched. "Relax man, relax. I just asked. But if you will let me speak to you right now as your Beta and not your friend, I will advise you to deal with th
LIA BLAKE"Wear this!" An older woman flimsily threw some cloth at me. Unable to catch it, the cloth dropped to the ground. She was putting on a servant's clothing and I knew at once she must be one of the elderly servants. "And you are not allowed to be clumsy here! Get your tiny self into them and get your arse down for some work! You stink!" She added, shot me a disgusting look before she walked out of the room slamming the door behind her shot. I stared down at myself, at the once extremely pretty wedding dress I wore that had now turned into a complete mess and stinking badly from the stench of the dungeon. Anyone would hardly believe it. I sighed tiredly and sank into the nearby seat. Well, it was actually the only seat in the somewhat large room. "You will be my wife…" the words of the Lycan King echoed in my head. Such good meaning words said with so much venom and cruelty. Cold shivers creeped my flesh and I shuddered. To any she-wolf, those words were pleasing to hear
LIA BLAKE"Don't worry, you will get used to it." Ma'am Lucy said as though she read my thoughts. There were some guards guarding the frontage of the different axis of the exquisite buildings. "He really is the king…" I murmured in awe gaping around the place. My father's house, despite how I usually saw it as one of the finest houses in my pack, was like nothing compared to this beauty. "Excuse me, we are here to see the king…He is aware of our coming." I heard Ma'am Lucy ask one of the men on duty. I didn't hear the guard speak but Ma'am Lucy was soon calling out to me. "Come along girl! The King is waiting.""Yes ma'am," I mumbled still partly in awe as I took quick long strides to catch up with her. She pushed open the entrance door and we let ourselves in. The dead silence of the room struck me the moment we stepped in. A series of portraits and pictures of people I guessed to be legends or perhaps had an impact on the pack hung on the wall. "This is the throne room, not
