Veil Of Destiny 48: Denying the Unknown
Maria's POV My eyes were swollen when I woke up, for some reason, I wished I had experienced the bad dreams instead of having to stay awake for most parts of the night thinking about the little kiss that Alpha Elijah and I had shared. It wasn't bad but something about it felt extremely wrong. Elizabeth had not been wrong for being so wary of me but even at that, I had no intention to have anything to do with him. There was a knock on the door and I was scared that it was Alpha Elijah or even worse, Elizabeth had found out about what transpired between us last night. I found my way to the door, taking as long as I could to postpone the meeting between me and someone I was definitely sure that I didn't want to see. "Hello, Good morning. I was sent here by Alpha Elijah, he said this was my new duty post as I have been assigned to take care of you" a young woman holding a basket of fresh supplies. "Oh, welcome," I said, dragging my sleeping robe tighter across my chest. "Thank you,"
Veil Of Destiny 47: Trying New Beginnings
Alpha Elijah's POV I definitely had not meant to kiss her. The colour had drained from her face and it was as if she had suddenly remembered what we were doing when she pushed me out and slammed the door on my face. I regretted kissing her. No, I didn't. That was a lie. I had enjoyed it, thoroughly. In fact, I wanted to go back and take more but I knew that would be me treating her without respect. She was wise enough to have pushed me out when she did. I felt ashamed of myself for a brief moment. I mean, she was pregnant with another man's child and clearly didn't want to have anything to do with another. "Alpha, welcome. I have waited all day for your command to send me to my place of assignment" Alexia, the maid I had promised to send over to Maria's place said as soon as I entered the palace. "You will go tomorrow. Meet me here at 10 o'clock." I said and she bowed respectfully before disappearing into the night. I made my way slowly to the bedroom, wishing that there was some
Veil Of Destiny 46: Thorns and Bristles
Maria's POV I had barely entered my place when there was a rapt knock on my door. No one else knew this place except Alpha Elijah and the last thing I wanted now was to speak to him, considering what had just transpired between Elizabeth and I. The knocking continued and I went to the door, hoping to peep through the keyhole to ascertain the identity of whoever was knocking. "It's me, Maria. Open up!" Alpha Elijah's voice filtered in through the door. Grudgingly, I opened the door, not wanting to seem ungrateful after everything that he had done for me. His face was set in a tight grimace and it looked like something had happened to him. "Elvira told me what happened at the hospital. I apologize for her insults. I've not had the chance to speak to her but I would caution her and make sure that she never cross paths with you in that manner again" he said as soon as I let him in."It's fine. I can take whatever she decides to dish out to me but my babies are where I draw the line. I
Veil Of Destiny 45: A State of Self-Sabotage
Maria's POV By the time I managed to go back to the pack, it was crazily hot and the sweat dripped down the back of my neck, running down my spine. Elvira was waiting for me with a huge smile on her face and a bottle of cold water in hand. She handed the bottle to me as soon as I got to her and I drank the water hungrily, the cold soothing my belly. "You look like you just walked five hundred miles, why didn't you tell Elijah to send someone to get you? He told me he was waiting for you to get ready so he sent one of his men to pick you up" she said but I was still yet to catch my breath. "It wasn't a long walk, I wanted to give myself a little bit of exercise," I said and she nodded her head, her hands placed on the small of my back as she helped me into the clinic. It was a busy day today as the ghost hunters had attacked again last night. Even though no one was killed during the attack, a lot of soldiers defending the east side had gotten hurt. They didn't look displeased at al
Veil Of Destiny 44: Easing into the Demon
Maria's POV I woke up nearly drowning in my own sweat and my heart slamming against my chest painfully. The dream had been so real and vivid, still sending shivers down my spine as if I was still captured in a world that I had no control over. It was hard drawing in the air as I clutched my chest and staggered to the bench. It was almost morning, yet the darkness threatened to overtake my life. I blinked severally and struggled to take in deep breaths as I slowly calmed down. Something had attacked the baby in my womb and suddenly my hair turned white with the brightest light spewing out of my eyes and mouth. It was horrifying and I had never seen myself in the light before now. A cock crowed nearby and I knew that it was nearing dawn, even much more than I had thought. I spat out the bile that had risen to my mouth and took in one last deep breath before making my way back to the house. If I was right, Alpha Leo would be here this week and my woes might just be beginning all over
Veil Of Destiny 43: A Spell for a King
Alpha Leo's POV I watched with keen interest as Lady Willow entered the room. Her eyes were bright and happy, the only indicator of a plan going well for her. I hated to be put in this spot but I had no choice but to comply. A lot was obviously going on right under my nose and I had been oblivious to it, but now, I had to do whatever it took to get out of this mess. Luckily, all it took was a few more days of pretending that everything was just the way it used to be. "Everything is going to work out. My plan is already in motion and soon enough, you would see things playing out for itself, just the way I have said that it would. Why did it take you so long to bring her here?" She asked me, her eyes suddenly tightening to a scowl."I don't know. You don't really like strangers" I said and moved to the window. My mind was in a mess, especially now that I had something else to worry about. "You have something else on your mind, my boy, I can feel it. Tell me about it. Why did you real
Veil Of Destiny 42: Another Plan
Sophia's POV I froze when I heard those words. The woman we had seen inside just now didn't look like she had the strength to walk on her own. I was sure that my mother's potion too hadn't flopped, so I held Leo, moving behind him to shield myself from whatever was coming. He didn't cover me as I expected, instead, he turned to face me. "What are you talking about lady willow?" Leo asked her, his eyes narrowing at me even though he wasn't talking to me. "Sophia, are you the daughter of Penny? Penelope Angus?" she asked, and bile rose in my throat. That was my mother's name, her maiden name, one that no one had called her in almost twenty years. "Ye... yes?" I stammered, the words forcing itself to come out of my mouth. "I've met her before. She used to be one of the women in the governing council, I knew you looked familiar. We were all terrified of her because of how stern and strict she was. You are welcome to my abode" Lady Willow said, her face breaking into a smile. "Oh," L
Veil Of Destiny 41: A Portion of Failure
Alpha Leo's POV The maid couldn't speak, I hated that we had to wait for longer before we knew what was going on. It was hard enough that I didn't know what had spooked her so badly to this point, now I had to wait for longer before I got the full picture. "You have to take it easy. The doctor said that once she wakes up tomorrow, she will be better and we can now know what it is. For now, I want you to keep up the pretense that it is me in that room" she said to me and I nodded my head slowly in agreement. "Alright, you go to bed early. I'll stay awake for a while longer. Is your wine bar still stocked?" I asked her as her lips slowly spread out in a smile, I knew that in her eyes, I was still a child. That would always be what she would see me as. "Yes. My tired eyes are threatening to close. You should eat too. I had the chef make you, your favourite" she said and ruffled my hair like she used to do when I was 12. "Alright. Goodnight lady willow" I said and kissed her gently o
Veil Of Destiny 40: An Era
Maria's POVMy heart pounded in my chest as I made my way back to my apartment. My protruding belly didn't help my movements as I stumbled back to my place, my heart pounding profusely in my chest. I stopped a few times to steady myself and my breathing, willing myself to do whatever I could to control my breath. Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me and hastened my steps in fear, the steps quickened and I broke into a run. The person increased their pace, I turned to quickly catch a glimpse of whoever was following me and found myself reeling down a hill. I struggled to catch myself, all to no avail as the little slope quickened my fall and had me tumbling in the dust. A pair of hands broke my fall and steadied me, helping me to sit. "Are you okay?" I heard Alpha Elijah's unmistakable voice. I heaved a sigh of relief, worried that one of Alpha Leo's henchmen might have seen me, considering that he was supporting to come to the pack the following week. "Well, I just rolled on the
