Princess Sheila’s POV The house felt boring as I walked out of my room. No dad or mum, just the sound of the TV talking about the recent happenings in the human world. Our identities were secret to them. They wouldn’t know if we attacked them or not. “Where’s dad?” I asked as I turned around the living room searching for him. I knew I left him there some minutes ago before I went to my room.His absence was normal, but he remained at home, waiting for me to come home. It was unlikely he would leave just at the moment I saw him. I walked to his room, turning open the door to be greeted by his absence.“You said you wanted to go to the garden, and I wanted to take that opportunity to roam the woods for a while,” Lisa’s complaints filled my inside as I searched for someone who could take care of himself. Heaving a sigh as I turned away; I walked towards the door. The guards at the door made a little bow as I passed between them. “Have you seen my father?” I couldn’t resist the urge t

Alfredo’s POV “I came here to discuss the wedding date as I wasn’t present during the engagement,” Alpha Brian said, his eyes darting from my mother and back to me. “I understand the engagement to unite both our families and pack, but we can’t keep it hanging out for long.”If this was what responsibilities were, I was going to ace it; I thought after hearing what Alpha Brian said.“You speak the truth, Alpha Brian. This is a matter of increasing our strength while fostering a good relationship with other people,” Mother answered him. I could see her drum her fingers on the table, although subtly. If you had spent as much time with her as I had. You would know her fiddling finger was her trying to think. It was only setting a date for a wedding. What more could it imply? “More reason we have to set a date early,” Alpha Brian said. “What date would you prefer it would be, Alfredo?”I froze in my thoughts as I had not expected to be placed in the equation as soon as this. “Anything my

Melissa (Gabriella’s Pov) “Dad, Mom. I found a stranger in our territory yesterday and you would not believe what I did.”Those were the words I heard as I followed the rabbit hole or stairs rather, ending at the top of the room where I saw him on his knees. He didn’t seem to notice that I was standing at that spot. “Especially you, father. I know you believe in eradicating anyone you found in our territory who didn’t enter without our permission, but this is my time now. Done with the era of bloodshed; I think I am done with that now, considering the amount of blood these hands have spilled, sending multiple to their deaths because I did not trust them.”His words continued to flow unhinged. They made me feel like he tried to talk to him should his parents have long gone from this world.“At least one soul is safe from both my hands and those you’ve trained to kill on sight. I know you're disappointed in me, Father, but this is my decision,” he said as he stood up. With his hands i

Sheila’s POV I woke up in the morning to find the house almost quiet as I roamed its interior. I realized I had slept the entire morning away, and it was way past high noon.“Anyone in particular that you are looking for?” I turned to find Mother standing at the door. A smile on her face and her black, silky hair that I inherited from her tied to a high bun behind her head.“It wouldn’t matter if I said it,” I said as I flopped into the chair closest to me. She held her smile as she walked closer to me, dropping to the chair gracefully. “Mock me.” I hummed to myself as I turned my head away from her.“Anything you say matters to me,” she answered. I could feel her hand as she placed them on my shoulder. They felt warm and mushy, like they were made only of flesh.“I want someone to take this responsibility from me,” I said as I pulled my legs to the chair, wrapping my arms around them in a fetal position. She chuckled at my words and I could feel them vibrate from her body and throu

Sheila’s POV It’s been three months since Dad came home with the news about my wedding. I agreed three months from that day and I’ve lived my life as a wife-to-be since. I waited, counting each day before this day would arrive.“You are still in bed,” Mother said as she pulled the door open, but to her dismay. I sat on the edge of my bed, staring out of the window at the horizon.A marriage between two top packs was a subject of intensity, as attacks could also happen on the same day. The saying of killing two birds with one stone could very well apply in these circumstances.“I’m not asleep, Mum,” I said as I turned to face her fully. She walked in with a pink dress that gave an orange feel over the rising sun.“I see that now,” she said as she sat next to me, feeling the bed shift to her weight. “It feels like the world has finally turned on its head now that D-day has arrived, doesn’t it?”I returned my gaze to the window, seeing as the orange glow of the sun peeked above the grou
