For moment, Damien wondered why the older Alpha was calling him. Did they have something to do together? Or maybe it was something else?"I need to take this call. It's Alpha Hendrix," Damien announced.Aria felt her heart skip a beat. She had thought that Damien would never mention his name ever again after they had met at The Amusement Park. But here he was again calling her mate.She could not afford to let her father ruin her life again. He had succeeded in ruining her childhood. She could not afford to ruin this happiness that she had found now."Alpha Damien speaking," Damien began."Remember the little chat we had the last time? " Alpha Hendrix asked.Damien nodded then he remembered that the old Alpha could not see him. "Yes, but I can not really pinpoint any since we had a lot of conversations," Damien answered cautiously.Hendrix chuckled deeply before continuing to speak. "Yes, we did. This is concerning the killing. The werewolf hunters who have surfaced and are killing o
"Take of Camille while I'm gone," Damien instructed. Then he leaned over and planted a kiss on Aria's cheeks.She smiled in response and watched him leave. Part of her still wanted to stop him from meeting with her father but she did not have a valid enough reason. She could instead risk leading Damien on the path to her secret.Damien smiled back and headed towards the door. He has already wasted enough time with them. He had to hit the road as fast as possible. Damien hurried to his car.Where was his Beta when he needed him? Kai never seemed to show up when he needed him. He entered his car and retrieved his phone. Then he dialed Kai's number."My Alpha! Been a while bro! I've been so busy with werewolf stuffs this entire time that I forgot to holla at you!" Kai exclaimed through the phone without even giving Damien the chance to speak."Kai, what werewolf stuff have you been so busy with? I only recall myself and I the entire time. Oh and Camille too, you never seem to show up," D
Aria finished clearing the dining table. She proceeded into the kitchen and washed the plates. She tidied up the kitchen and made sure it was left clean.At a point, she wondered where Lana could be? Was it not her job to make the food and clean up the kitchen? That woman always seemed to be in her own world doing things she only wanted to do. It baffled Aria.Lana knew how to be strange one moment and the next she would disappear. She wondered who Lana truly was and what her agenda was. She would ask Camille where Lana came from.Thinking of Camille, she realised that Camille had been gone to the restroom for way too long. Was Camille still in the restroom or she had retreated to bed? Probably, she was tired and needed some rest. It would be best if Aria did not disturb her. Camille worked a lot and she needed all the rest that she could get.Aria decided to retreat to her room. She doubted Damien would be back anytime soon. It was already getting late. The sun had already set. If Ca
"My daughter is the traitor that we all seek. She is the only one that has betrayed us," Hendrix concluded."Your daughter?" Alpha Kingston asked. "If I'm not mistaken, the same daughter you cast out?"Damien furrowed his brows at the Alpha's words. Yes, Damien knew that Alpha Hendrix had twin daughters but that was as far as he knew.He did not know their names or what they looked like. He never bothered to know. None of it interested him. He hated twins and anything that had to do with twins always turned him off.But he did not understand why Alpha Kingston's statement had rang a bell in his head. He wanted to shrug it away like he always did for matters that had to do with twins but for some reason, there was curiousity fighting to be given justice."You cast a daughter of yours our?" Damien asked. He had not known it when his lips formed the words and spoke up.This action surprised Kai. Kai gave him a surprised look."Since when did you start caring about twins?" Kai asked in a
Aria was dumbfounded as she watched Camille cry her eyes out. She could not understand the source of her pain but she had a few ideas of what was going on with Camille in her head.Thoughts ran through Aria's mind as she tried to understand the cause of her sister-in-law's cries. She was not used to seeing Camille in this condition. Which was why it baffled Aria as much as it did.Could it be because of her mate? Aria was sure it had to do with the mate who she had never seen.Aria's emerald green eyes fell to Camille again. Her expression was heartbreaking. Camille's nose had turned red. Her cheeks too like her nose had reddened. Her eyes had become puffy and her lips were broken as they trembled with every muster of pain that she felt."Camille. . .you need to talk to me. Make me understand what is wrong," Aria pleased in a soft voice as she felt her own eyes begin to water.It was proving hard to watch Camille cry without she crying herself. Camille did not say a word. Her tears ke
Aria didn't know how to react to the information she had just gotten from Camille. She had always thought about her mate and why Camille didn't have any but she didn't realize it was because of this.“So, what happened?” she asked the dreaded question.Camille chuckled humorlessly. “What do you think?”There was a twinkle in her eyes that gave her shudders as she stared at Camille. Could it possibly be that her mate had joined the werewolf hunters? The look in Camille’s eyes told her all she needed to know and Aria felt sorry for her. “Camille, I'm so sorry,” Aria apologized.Camille waved her off, wiping the stray tears running down her cheeks. “I'm fine. These damn tears just keep popping out,” Camille chuckled.Aria could see the sadness in her eyes and the fact that she wasn’t acknowledging her feelings made it worse.Camille was in denial.She would have a long conversation with Damien whenever he returned from his trip. If not because they were werewolves and immortal except
"We found him!”With these four words reverberating around the entire house, all sleepyheads returned to the courtyard where the black sack all tied up was displayed for everyone to see. Rumours traveled from lips to lips; stairs from eyes to eyes. Was it really a wolf hunter? If it was so then the hedge had started to chip little by little. Damien's thick eyebrows furrowed continuously as he trotted out to the courtyard with some of his guards following closely behind him as well as Camille. Aria on the other hand, stood and watched from the large front door expressionlessly. Was she to be proud that she had been proven right? Or was there another handwriting on the wall that she was failing to read.Barely started to rise slowly in Damian's throat, because if that really was an intruder from the other side, then it meant he had been lacking seriously in his duties. What were his subjects going to think of him? What was his reputation amongst other alphas going to be if they heard t
“No! Why don't you just cut off my toes all in the name of filing my nails,” Ellie scolded her servant who shook in fear as she held tightly to the nail file in her hand. It was afternoon, one of the very points in the day Ellie's mood swings got the best of her. The next nine months we're probably going to be the worst days in the lives of the workers who tended to Ellie. One minute she's asking for a heavily prepared meal or a freshly haunted reindeer, the next she just wants water with sugar.Even Gerald, her husband, had his own share of her daily tantrums.Ellie scratched roughly through deep brown hair as she stuffed her fingers in the bowl of popcorn next to her. On her left was also a bowl full of sugar cubes and in front of her was the latest episode of her favourite series airing. And as carefully as Gabby was caring for Ellie's pedicure was the intensity of the latter's irritation with someone constantly tugging at her toes. It had just been a few days ago when he found o
