Fight for her.
ZaneI remember vividly the moment Amanda stormed into my pack territory with a fire in her eyes that could rival the sun's intensity. Her presence alone sent a shiver down my spine, a foreboding sense of impending doom creeping over me. I knew, deep down, that she was furious with me, and whatever anger she harbored was not to be taken lightly. It was as if a storm cloud had descended upon us, and I was the unfortunate target of its wrath.As the days passed, I couldn't shake the feeling of impending confrontation. Every rustle of the leaves, every distant sound, seemed to herald her return and when she did come back, I knew it was only a matter of time before she sought me out. I could almost feel the weight of her gaze, burning into me with unrelenting fury. It was as if she had a score to settle, and I was the unwilling participant in her twisted game of vengeance.“What have I done?” I muttered.I found myself constantly looking over my shoulder, expecting her to leap out from th

What to do?
Amanda“What do you want to do about Alex?” Beatrice asked.I looked up from the food I was eating, taking a sip of my drink even as I thought about what she had said. On one hand, I could just banish him and let him leave but on the other hand, I knew that doing that wouldn’t help the situation because for him to be out there, meant that Zane could get that information and in turn use it against us by claiming Alex by his side.When it came to that, I knew that Zane could play really dirty and I wasn't about to have Alex fall into his trap because if that ever happened, it would be so disastrous that we might never be able to recover from it.“I really don’t know but I guess I have to watch him for a while and see what I can do about him. You know, when I'm handling situations like this, I need to be very careful." I said.“I really don’t know how he turned into the person he is today. I mean, it's one thing to talk to him and another thing to chide him but right now, I don't even kn

About Marcus.
Amanda “Don’t leave, I want to see you.” I said to him,I didn’t need to explain any further even as understanding dawned on him. Together, we made our way towards the small private hall where we couldn’t be disturbed."Why, Marcus?" I demanded, my voice laced with frustration and confusion. "Why didn't you go through with it? We had a plan, and you backed out at the last moment. Do you realize what this means for us?"Marcus, ever confident, closed the distance between us with measured steps. His gaze bore into mine, unwavering despite my intense scrutiny. I could feel his hands, warm and steady, as they found their way around my waist, a gesture that both comforted and unsettled me."Amanda," he began, his voice low and tinged with a hint of defiance, "I did what I thought was best for both of us."I couldn't hide my disbelief. "Protecting me? Is that what you call it?" I retorted, my tone sharp. "By not following through with our plan, you've put us at risk. Zane won't take this

Keep me informed.
Amanda “I think you should be really careful with Marcus,” Beatrice said to me one day as I walked into the main hall for our weekly meetings.Time was running out but still, there was no word yet from Sarah and I was beginning to wonder if she was even alive to begin with but one thing I knew was that she was because if she wasn’t, my spies would have informed me.“Why do you say that?” I asked her.“Isn’t it clear Alpha? Why do you think Marcus just had this sudden growing affection and likeness for you even as we are trying to deal with Zane and his pack. If you ask me, it's all too convenient and I hate to tell you that he might actually be fooling you.” she said.There was a conviction in her words that scared me because I didn't want to think that that was the reality.“I don’t know…” I muttered.I was even confused as I didn't even know what to think anymore. I couldn’t deny the fact that I was already growing feelings for Marcus, that was already certain but at the same time,

We found something.
Amanda As I paced back and forth in the alpha's den, my mind buzzed with a flurry of thoughts, each one more tumultuous than the last. The urgency of finding Alex pulsed through me like a drumbeat, driving me to the brink of impatience. How could he have disappeared without a trace? Was there something more profound at play here, something sinister lurking beneath the surface?With each step, I scanned the room, my eyes darting from one corner to the next, searching for any clue that might shed light on his sudden disappearance. The scent of his presence lingered in the air, a faint whisper of familiarity that taunted me with its elusiveness."Any sign of him yet?" I asked, my voice laced with frustration, as I turned to face one of my pack members who had just returned from a scouting mission.The pack members shook their heads, their expressions grim. "Nothing. We've combed through the woods, but there's no trace of him anywhere."I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms

To overcome all.
Amanda As Marcus tried to dissuade me, his words fell on deaf ears. I couldn't just sit back and do nothing while Alex, my Beta, was out there somewhere, potentially in danger. "I appreciate your concern, Marcus, but I can't ignore this," I replied firmly, my gaze unwavering despite the worry etched on his face. "I have to find Alex, no matter what it takes."With determination driving me forward, I gathered my men, each one ready and willing to follow me into the unknown depths of the forest. We ventured forth, the canopy above casting dappled shadows on the forest floor as we treaded carefully, every rustle of leaves and snap of twigs echoing through the silent woods.Despite the urgency of our mission, a gnawing sense of unease settled in the pit of my stomach. It was as though the very air around us was charged with tension, a feeling that grew stronger with each step we took. "Keep your senses sharp, everyone," I instructed, my voice low but firm as I scanned our surroundings

Bring him to me.
ZaneAs I held court with my pack members, the air was thick with anticipation and loyalty. We gathered in the heart of our territory, surrounded by towering trees and the whispers of the forest. My position as alpha demanded respect, and every member of my pack knew it. I sat upon a rough-hewn throne of moss-covered stone, my gaze sweeping over those gathered before me.Suddenly, amidst the murmurs of conversation, one of my guards burst into the clearing, his chest heaving with exertion. His eyes found mine, and he strode forward with purpose, stopping before me with a deep bow."What news?" I demanded, my voice low and commanding.The guard straightened, his expression grave. "Alpha Zane, the beast we unleashed into the forest has succeeded. Amanda and her pack members have been chased out, unable to rescue their Beta, Alex."A thrill shot through me at the news, and I couldn't help but smile wickedly. "Excellent," I murmured, the words dripping with satisfaction. "Bring him to me

Calm down.
AmandaAs I paced back and forth in the heart of our pack, anger surged through my veins like a raging river. Zane's betrayal felt like a dagger twisting in my gut, a betrayal that cut deep into the very fabric of our trust. How could he do this to us? Sending a beast to attack us even when he needed our help, to harm my people—it was unfathomable.Beatrice approached me with a gentle hand on my shoulder, her voice a soothing balm in the midst of my storm. "Amanda, calm down. We will deal with this together. We are stronger and united."I shook off her touch, my fury burning hotter with each passing moment. "How can you expect me to calm down, Beatrice? Zane has betrayed us all! He's put our pack at risk, endangering our lives. He's no better than the enemy."Beatrice's eyes softened with understanding, but she persisted, her voice steady. "I know, Amanda but now is not the time for rash decisions or actions made in anger. We must gather our strength, our wits, and confront this thre

An excellent news.
Amanda As I sat with the other elders of my pack, the weight of responsibility pressing down on my shoulders, I watched as Beatrice approached. Her expression was serious, and I could tell she had news. "Amanda," she said, her voice low but urgent. "The process of extracting our spy, Sarah, from Zane's pack is underway. Soon, she will be here."Relief flooded through me at the news. Sarah had been deep undercover in Zane's pack for months, gathering crucial information for us. Knowing that she would soon be back with us was a weight off my mind. "Thank you, Beatrice," I said, gratitude evident in my tone. "That's excellent news."But even as I spoke, another worry nagged at the back of my mind. "Has there been any word from Alex?" I asked, my voice betraying my concern. Alex had been missing for days now, and every passing hour only deepened my anxiety.Beatrice's expression softened slightly, but it was clear she had no good news to share on that front. "I'm sorry, Amanda," she s

It's Marcus.
AmandaAs I sat in my dimly lit room, feeling the weight of the world pressing down on me, I heard a soft knock on my door. Before I could even respond, the door creaked open, and there she was, Beatrice. Her presence alone brought a sense of comfort, but tonight, even her warm smile couldn't chase away the storm clouds gathering within me."Amanda, darling, what's the matter?" Beatrice's voice was gentle, filled with concern as she stepped further into the room. Her eyes, usually bright and lively, now held a glimmer of worry as she studied my troubled expression.I tried to muster a smile, to reassure her that everything was fine, but the words caught in my throat. How could I possibly tell her what was eating away at me, tearing me apart from the inside out?"It's Marcus," I finally managed to whisper, my voice barely audible above the soft hum of the room's ventilation system. "He... he came to see me earlier."Beatrice's brow furrowed in confusion. "Marcus? But I thought you two
