CHAPTER TWO
ALPHA KHALID'S COURTROOMAlpha Khalid POV
I sat on my throne, glaring at the incompetent fools of cabinet members, bowing their heads foolishly in front of me. My blood kept boiling in anger, as I glared at them, I could feel my wolf, crawling dangerously out of my eyes, threatening to consume me, but I tried as much as to keep it in check, I didn't wanna lose it, not now.
"I'll ask again, and if you dare to tell me nonsense, then you know what I'm capable of doing. For the last time, who helped the rogue escaped from the prison?" I thundered again, losing my patience. I felt my whole body heating up, the atmosphere was almost on fire, and I could see it on their faces, they were feeling the heat. "Forgive me Alpha, it's all my fault, I was on duty that night....I...I didn't know how it..."Before he could finish his statement, I teleported to his back, and touching him with my hand, which was already on fire, he burnt into ashes. "Find the rogue, else, you're all dead." I roared, before teleporting out of the throne room. How dare those fools! That bastard, dare to betray me, and thinks he can actually escape me? No way! When I lay my hands on him, I'll make sure I make him go through so much pains, that he'll beg to be killed. He thinks he can come to my pack and spy on us, but he'll regret it. Teleporting to the woods, I screamed out angrily, as my whole body lit up in fire, and soon, some of the trees were affected, as they caught fire, burning furiously. "Calm down Khalid, you have to control yourself." I said to myself, as I kept grunting, trying to calm my demon, and soon, the fire disappeared from my body, but the trees didn't stopped burning. I suddenly became hungry, and the urge to hunt, suddenly flashed through me, and I shift furiously, before going farther into the woods, looking for what to eat. My wolf is the most strongest and fierce in the whole pack, I mean, what do you expect from an Alpha? My wolf never misses its target, no matter how distanced it. After a few minutes, I was able to hunt down a deer, which I devoured. Changing into my human form, I cleaned the trail of blood from my mouth, before teleporting to my spacious room. I walked into bathroom, had a long relaxing bath, and wore a towel around my waist, before walking out of the bathroom to my room. "Who's there?" I asked loudly, as I took a seat before the mirror, looking at my reflection. What more can I ask from moon goddess? She blessed me with an handsome face, perfect body, and made me the most powerful man, just tell me what more I could ask for. "Yes your highness." One the maids, serving me said from outside. They didn't need anyone to tell them I needed their services, as two maids came rushing in. "Yes Alpha." They both bowed, before walking over to where I was sitting down. Closing my eyes, I relaxed myself on the chair, as I waited for them to start their jobs, and soon, I felt two hands on my shoulders, giving me the best massage I've been longing all day for. All my servants are best at what they do. In less than two hours, they were done with dressing me up, after which they left my room, leaving me alone. Walking elegantly into my study room, I picked an ancient book from the book shelf, before going to sit on the chair, after which I crossed my legs and started opening the book, page by page. "Where are you Khalid?" I suddenly heard her voice echoed in my head. She's the only one that dare to speak in my head, and that person, is my sister, Moon. Letting out a soft groan, I closed my eyes briefly in frustration, and decided to ignore her, as I continued reading the book. "Where are you Khalid? Don't you dare mess with me if I find you myself, just know you're a goner." Her voice threatened in my head. Gosh! This girl is so annoying. "I want to be alone." I said in my mind, and before I knew what was happening, the door burst opened, and she walked in elegantly, with a smug look on her face. Ok I'm screwed now. "How dare you Khalid?" She growled angrily, as she sauntered to where I was sitting down. "What's the problem now Moon?" I asked frustratingly, taking my full attention to the book. "Let's go have fun outside the pack. Let's visit your friend." She whined, as she sat opposite me. "Not today Moon, I'm not in a good mood now, and besides, I don't have a plan of going to Moon stone pack anytime soon, so you can go with the guards, if you so much want to see him." I said with finality in my voice, not raising my gaze to look at her. "Cmon Khalid, it's just an harmless...""Don't make me repeat myself Moon." I said coldly, not sparing her a glance. I hate showing her my bad side, but then, I hate being bothered. I'm used to giving orders, and not taking them. She snorted angrily, before storming out of the study, banging the door behind her. "Now my mood is ruined." I sighed softly, then closed the book and kept it back in the shelf, before walking out."I need fresh air." I muttered, as I opened my door, and walked out. The guards and maids kept bowing to me, as I walked pass them. I got to the garden, and took a deep breath, as I joined my hands at my back, staring into space, the fresh air, fanning my face. Looking around the garden, my attention was drawn to a flower, as a strong scent filled the garden...CHAPTER THREEOctavia POVEver since mother Lia suggested that I go out at night and have fun, my life has changed from worst to a more comfortable one. I always go out every night for fresh air, and at times, I use the opportunity to free my wolf, and let it take over me.Going out of the house is very fun, even if it's not in the daylight. At least, I know what the pack look like. Too bad I can't see the beauty of it."You have to please be careful my child, don't put yourself in trouble, and make sure you come home early enough, don't go too far in the woods, we have enemies alot, and I wouldn't want one of them, hurting you. Please be safe for me, ok?" Mother said worriedly."You've said that like a million times now mother, and I always told you that I'll do just that, can you please stop getting worried over nothing?" I sighed frustratingly, crossing my arms on my chest."I know I've
CHAPTER FOUR Octavia POVRaising my gaze, I was met with the back view of a man, standing elegantly, just a few paces away from me.I stared at the man, standing with his back, facing me. He was dressed in all black, his thick black shiny hair, clinging to his head, his strong and intimidating aura, was one of a hell. Even if he wasn't looking at me, I know his face must be one of those scary faces the characters do take in wolf series. I've read so many books, that's what keeps me company back at home, I read mostly about werewolves. If you're wondering who taught me how to read, then mother Lia comes in. She's my tutor, she taught me almost everything I need to know, she taught me how to read, how to control my powers, and every other things, which I need to know as a werewolf.My heart came thumping heavily against my chest, like it'll pop out anytime soon, as I couldn't help, but drool over the dem
CHAPTER FIVE Alpha Khalid POVAnger surged through me, as I stared down at my clothes, which were now messed up with the stains of the wine. Even if the clothes were all black, and the stains from the wine didn't seem to do any harm to it, I still felt disgusted.The atmosphere became tensed, as everyone stared at me in terror, waiting for the worst to happen, because they all know what I'm capable of doing, there's no way in hell, I'm ever going to let this bastard go unpunished, how dare she spill drink on my beautiful clothes? She's so gonna pay for this."Forgive me your highness." Her voice quivered, as she fell on her knees, with her face down, as her whole body trembled in fear. I don't blame her, she knows what fate has in store for her at the moment, so she could only shiver, but too bad, I'm not moved.Glaring down at her, I felt my blood boiling in fury, my demon was threa
CHAPTER SIX Alpha Khalid POV"Strip!" My demon ordered in his usual commanding and intimidating tone, which always rid people off their guard, as my eyes devoured her.A smile crept on her face, as she took her hands to her shoulders, letting off the hands of her loose gown, and in the next minutes, she was standing stack naked in front of me, and I felt my demon quivered in excitement. He calmed down a bit, just by the sight of the tempting body before him, and he just couldn't wait, to devour her.Taking slow and steady steps to her, I finally stopped in front of her, and pulled her close to myself, as I nuzzled my face in her neck, feeling the beautiful scent of her, aside her wolf scent, she smelt so good, that's one of the reasons why she's my favorite. Astrid have been my sex partner for years, and she's happy being that. I know she loves me, but fuck! I don't do love, and all these mating shits, they sucks me. Like, how the
CHAPTER SEVEN Octavia POVI kept smiling foolishly, as the image of the weird guy back in the woods, kept replaying in my head. I just wished to see him again. His smiles, his grey eyes, his dimples, his perfect lips, just the image of it, makes me giggle foolishly.Sitting up on my mat, I stretched my hands above my head, as I yawned tiredly, before standing on my feet. Dragging my feet out of my room, I went to knock on my parent's door, but got no response. I didn't need anyone to tell me they must've gone out to do their hard labor as usual.This is how they've always lived, they are always made to go through hard labors out there, for no reason, they're always punished by the said superiors, they always go out and come back home, all tired, with bruises all over their bodies. Too bad, I can't even go out there to see what is always happening to them.Turning around, I walked back to my room, and stripped out of my clot
CHAPTER EIGHTOctavia POV It was already getting late, and mom and dad are yet to come back from labor. I would've gone out to search for them, but they already pleaded to never step out of the house, no matter what happens, the reason behind that, is still a mystery, which I'm yet to understand, and I'm already dying of curiosity.Letting out a sigh, I yawned hungrily, before continuing with reading my book, but my mind kept wandering away from it. My stomach wouldn't stop grumbling violently, I haven't eaten anything since morning, so I don't blame my tiny bowel to be making noise. Even my wolf was hungry too, but we just gat to endure it, until mom and dad gets back, I'm sure they'll bring something home for me.I fixated my gaze on the book, giving it all my attention, trying to get distracted from the hunger, that kept trying to take over me.After reading with an empty stomach for what seemed like forever, I started feeling w
CHAPTER NINEOctavia POV"Octavia...Octavia." The sound of my name became clearer, and the voice sounded really familiar, it belongs to mother. But, where I she?I felt a tap on my body, and I jerked, as my eyes flew open, that was when it dawned on me, that it was all a dream. It wasn't reality, I can't believe I got so scared in the dream. Letting out a sigh, I yawned tiredly, and sat up on the mat, before raising my gaze to see mom, still standing, but not as happy as usual. She always try to put on a smile for my sake, even when she's tired, and the woman standing before me now, is not like my cheerful mother."Mother?" I called, and rubbed my eyes to see her clearly.A drop of tears slid down her cheeks, and I just couldn't help, but got worried. What could be wrong with her? Did she got hurt?"What happened mother?" I asked worriedly, as I finally got on my feet, and held her hands, as I looked at he
Chapter Ten Author POV She stood up and her feet, and snapped her head to where the voice came from, but was shocked at who she was welcomed with, those grey eyes, she could never forget, that pointed nose, that her hand itched to poke, those sensual lips, which is alluring. It was her Mr handsome, the weird guy. Slowly, she found her anger, dissipating slowly, the blaze on her body slowly faded away, as her eyes became normal pale blue again. In as much as she wanted to run, she just couldn't bring herself to doing it, as she found her curiosity to know who he was, kept getting the best of him. She turned to face her fully, maintaining her distance, so she could run for her dear life, if anything goes wrong. "We met again." He smiled at her, as he batted his long lashes, a sweet and most beautiful smile, settling on his face, and as his dimples formed on his both cheeks, she just couldn't help, but drool at the dem
