A pair of dark, brown eyes narrowed within the shadow as it continued to stare towards the alpha, who is currently entertaining his mate, listening to her attentively as she is telling him something that made both laugh after a few minutes.
They were walking along the grounds with the alpha’s arms around her shoulders while her arms are around his waist. The moon shone brightly from the starry sky, illuminating their path while fireflies dance all over the open air. They would greet some members that passed by them and sometimes stopped and talked with them for a while.
Erika Harmon, tall and proud and with her fists tightly clenched at her sides watched with hatred, pure jealousy and anger consuming her entire being as Clayton Langston, tucked some hair behind Amarah Saville’s ears before leaning down and giving her a soft kiss on the mouth. She immediately wanted to ripped Amarah away from him.
“That should be me in your arms, Clayton,”
Clayton looked up from the report that he is reading after his mother had linked him that she is on her way to see him that Wednesday morning. He stood up when the knob of the door turned and smiled when Mrs. Langston finally came in.“Hello, mom,” he greeted as he gave her a quick hug and a kiss on her forehead. “It’s good to know that you’re coming up here from time to time. I’m sure everyone is glad to see you here. Is dad with you?”“He’s at home,” Mrs. Langston answered as she pulled away and went to the couch and sat down. “Don’t worry about him. Matt just checked on him and he is doing fine. He had your dad drink some freshly squeezed Sacred Root every morning for his heart. Other than that, he is feeling better.”“That’s good to know,” he said in relief as he sat on the opposite couch, in front of her. “I should have not told him about that new vision Sa
Amarah looked down at the small hard case that Clayton had placed on her lap a few moments ago. She clenched her fists tightly, pondering if she should open it now or just forget about it.“What is this?” She asked.The moment she entered the house after coming from Alpha Jack’s daughter christening early in the afternoon, Clayton was already waiting for her in the living room. The case is sitting on the center table in front of him. He asked her to sit down after letting her freshen up.“It’s from my grandmother,” Clayton finally answered her calmly. He picked up the box and gently placed it on her lap. “When I was at the Lycan Capital doing some research at the archives, King Atticus came, and we talked.”“We actually talked about your family most specifically your uncle,” he continued gently. “During that conversation, I found out that it was my grandmother who had made the prophecy and
My Loving and Darling Gabriel,I love you.Always remember this. Don't you forget that. No matter where we will be or what the future holds for both of us, I don’t want you to ever forget that. I love you. You are my mate. My one true and big love and it’s going to stay that way until I will take my last breath.I know. The moment I walked out of Alpha Frederick’s office; I knew upon seeing your face that you already knew my decision. But as always, you never wanted me to feel guilty of anything. Just as you assured me about the foresight that I made. Whatever happens, it’s never going to be my fault.But not this time.This time I’m not going to let you tell me that this is not my fault because it is. Because of me, your uncle, Alpha Dimitri banished you from your prestigious pack because he won’t let you hang up your sword. It is also because of me that you cannot be with your family anymore. And now, because o
Amarah folded the letter quietly and placed it back inside the case. She looked at the ring in her palm and finally decided to put it on her right ring finger, holding out her hand and admiring the ring with a sad smile.“Uncle Gab?” She called out in her mind, hoping she can link with Gabriel.It took several more tries before Amarah was finally able to connect with her grand uncle.“Is there something wrong, Amarah?” Gabriel asked patiently.“I have the ring,” Amarah only said.Gabriel remained silent for a long while at her statement. “Does it fit you?” He finally in a calm voice. “The ring belongs to your Nana, Amarah. I am giving it to you. Consider it as a belated birthday gift from me for all your birthdays that I missed.”“But Catherine said in her letter -,” she started to answer but her uncle cut her off.“I don’t want to hear it, Amarah,&rdq
Clayton stared towards Amarah as she slowly made her way towards him that early Wednesday evening. He was waiting at the platform with his family, watching Amarah with her hand holding on to her father’s arm while the other is clutching the flowing skirt of her beige, sheer and sparkling, embroidered deep V and backless dress.Tonight, is their Engagement Ceremony.The moment when Clayton had informed his mother that the ceremony will happen, Mrs. Langston wasted no time in preparing for the occasion. She instructed Clayton to immediately sent an invite to her family along with the proposed dates for their final confirmation. She then started with the dress that Amarah will be wearing, calling on a known seamstress from The Ancient Hounds pack, an ally and who is known all around as the best.Amarah, Clayton had noted had remained silent all throughout the preparation. She would only voice out her thoughts when his mother would ask her or when there is som
Clayton gripped Amarah’s wrist tightly after Gabriel informed him those rogues are coming towards his territory and that they are here for Amarah. He looked towards Bradley and Jacob, and they immediately nodded at him, leaving the venue to warn the warriors and border patrollers.He noted that Liam had already started dispersing the crowd, telling them to go back to their houses in an orderly manner. Several patrollers also assisted especially the elders who might need some assistance.“I have to get you out of here,” Clayton said to her firmly. He turned towards the crowd, looking for someone before he turned back to Amarah. “I’m not going to let them get to you, alright? I’m not going to allow it.”“I’ll take care of her, Clayton,” her mother suddenly piped up. Her sister, Arianna also nodded in assurance. The four Gamma warriors from their pack, who came to train his warriors few weeks ago flanked t
Upon arriving at the healing center, Amarah immediately started to prepare the basic supplies that she will be needing once wolves with injuries will come arriving. Ignoring her state, she went back and forth to the supplies room, making sure she had enough. She also saw Constance, giving instructions to Eloise as they unfolded additional beds while Matt and Lily are doing some makeshift curtain partitions. The Gamma warriors also assisted them, making the preparation much faster.Amarah suddenly turned when she heard a long and loud howl from outside. She gripped the boxes of syringe she had taken and then turned to the other direction when ferocious growls and yowls of pain could be heard. She shook her head, stopping the distraction she is experiencing and went back to her task.“Amarah, you need to stop,” her mother said calmly behind her as Amarah placed both hands on her head and continued to think of things that she needs to prepare. Mrs. Saville rea
Evangeline Langston looked up and smiled as she accepted the cup of tea that Marianna Saville handed her early Saturday morning. She took a sipped from her cup as Marianna sat on the chair beside her with her own cup.They looked across the spacious room in the center and watched as Amarah, clasping Clayton’s hand on her cheek, continued to look at him calmly while her other hand is on his arm, caressing it from time to time.It has been three days since they were attacked by rogues and to Evangeline’s relief, most of the wounded warriors had already recovered and there were no reported dead members. With her husband taking over his son’s absence as alpha, he had all the dead bodies of the rogues burned down and with the other alphas help, scouted the entire border to retrieved evidence on the unknown traitor.Three days and Clayton has still not woken up since his operation. It took Amarah and Matt almost three hours, with Amarah making sure t
