I liked Mason Stone pissed off. There was something deeply satisfying about watching his carefully constructed composure crack, seeing the veins in his neck pulse with barely contained rage, knowing that I was the one who’d put that furious gleam in his eyes. I loved making him understand that no matter how many clever schemes he concocted, no matter how far ahead he thought he’d moved, ten steps, twenty, a hundred, I was always further ahead. Always fifty steps beyond his reach, watching his m

    Sage.“This is not right,” I muttered as I watched the three Alphas talk to the cameras. They sat comfortably on their golden chairs like they were meant to be there.“Change is never about the right time,” the matured lady standing beside me with a proud beaming smile spoke. “It is about taking action whether the timing is right or not.” I said nothing in reply as I watched with a grim expression.The words that came out of Kerian’s mouth haunted me and it still does till this day.“A new dawn has arrived for Silver Crest,” The Alpha Primus began. “No longer are we three going to cower before a council that is beneath us. We have endured the blatant disrespect for so long. I Alpha Keiran sits before you because I fought for this position fair and square in a trail where our powers were stripped down to the barest!” The anger and resentment were evident in his voice as he spoke. “As I speak the High Council officials representing the various parts of Silver Crest will be brought be

    Kieran.“This carnival has gone long enough,” I growled in anger as I paced back and forth in the living room. Numerous angles of the fight between Asher and Magnus played on the screen in the living room. “They dared attack an Alpha of Silver Crest.” “They were bidding their time, Kieran.” Asher said casually. He looked well for someone who barely survived an attack from an augmented Sigma beast. “They never saw us as a threat because we never became one to them.” “Why did you drag the fight out that long?” I demanded angrily. “You could have killed it the moment it attacked you. Now they will think you are weak!”“I was putting on a show, Kieran. I needed the people to believe in what I was selling.” Asher replied. I scoffed and rolled my eyes at his response. I hated the fact that he had to make a show of everything.“And what were you trying to sell to the people?” Dominic asked from the door way. I had not even heard him come in.“Good, you are here, the both of us have been wa

    ​​​​Asher.It was going to kill me. But first, it was going to humiliate me first. My healing factors was not going to keep up with the savage onslaught of this beast. It was knocking me around as I tried to fight back.I could turn into my werewolf but I was too proud and too vain to let my wolf out. I was going to defeat this thing without transforming into my wolf. I took hits upon hits and the studio suffered for it. I tried to fight back but it seemed like every move I made was already anticipated. I knew that the world was seeing this. The whole of Silver Crest was seeing its Alpha getting beat up by a beast of an unknown origin.I opened my eyes and found myself falling. Before I realized what was happening, I landed painfully on the roof of a car. The alarm sound of the car jeered me awake. We were outside somewhere and my clothes were tattered and bloody.My healing factor kicked in for the umpteenth time as I grunted and rolled of the car. I pulled out a sharp long shard of

    ​​​​Asher.I had them all at the edges of their seats. Just the way I had planned. Nothing was going to stop me from toppling this council.“Alpha Asher, you have said so many things before the audience today,” Baron the hostess said and I could tell that she was feeling uncomfortable with the things I had uttered. “I have no reason to lie to anyone here, Lisa,” I said. “It is time power resided where it actually belongs.” I added and looked directly at the camera. “With the Alphas.” An excited murmur shook the studio. “Are you saying that you are going to single handedly change a culture that has been part of the werewolf tradition for the sake of power?” “Is that such a bad thing?” I asked. “I mean they have hogged the power for years and what good as it done?” I tried to imagine how viral my action was going to be online. The outrages and the supports. I should have done this a long time ago. I was a bit saddened that I had to be inspired by my father’s death before I took the

    Dominic.She held on to me hungrily and grind her hips against mine. I had given up on trying to understand how and why this hypnotic lust and desire worked. I had given up trying to think the moment my lips touched hers.I had lost count on how many timed I had fucked this Omega but it felt like I was doing it for the first time every time our bodied met. It made no sense. With Sage Winters, nothing ever truly made sense. There was no shame or anxiety whenever my body came in contact with hers. There was only an intoxicating hunger that need to be sated.Why did clothes suddenly feel uncomfortable every time the pink smoke filled the room? I gently removed all of her clothes as quickly as I could, feverishly craving the warmth of her skin. I placed yearning kisses on her body from her arms to the napes of her neck.No act of love making was wasted as I got to work. She moaned incoherently and ran her hands through my hair and wrapped her long curvaceous legs around me. Her tongue de

    ​​​​Sage.No one wanted to be at the dining table except Beatrice and I.Dominic’s dad seemed to be the most uncomfortable here. I could feel the uneasy air around him as he sat stiff beside me. Hunger made me care less about the palpable tension at the lunch. I ate like a wild animal and lost count of how many cups of water I drank.“Its not enough,” I muttered sadly as I cleared my ninth plate of spaghetti and meatballs,“Wow,” Icarus looked at me with wide eyed shock. “Food will not restore what you have given, Sage,” Elvira said as she patiently sat there like she had all the time in the world.I knew what she
