Semua Bab Alpha or Lycan : Otsana's Dilemma : Bab 31 - Bab 40

~Ralph Rage surged within me as I paced back and forth in my quarters. How could Jasper dare to hold his coronation without my permission? He acted as if he already held the Alpha title of the Greyhound Pack—as if I had faded into nothing. Clenching my fists, I felt my nails dig into my palms, almost drawing blood, but the physical pain was a mere shadow to the storm in my mind. I was a strong Alpha, a leader known for my resilience, yet now, here I was, feeling utterly powerless. I had returned to my pack, only to find my authority challenged and my pack torn apart by deceit. How could I stop this madness when it seemed like the whole pack had already turned against me? My thoughts raced as I paced the length of my quarters. I needed a plan, a way to turn the tide in my favor. But Alec's presence in the pack complicated things. He was always lurking, always scheming. With him around, the odds were stacked against me. I stopped, thinking hard, weighing my options as a new idea began

~RalphI slipped out of Otsana, quickly pulling on my pants as I crossed the room. My hand reached for the sword at my side, my eyes darting around the room, searching for the intruder.Otsana's face was pale, her eyes wide with fear. "What if someone had been spying on us all along " she whispered, her voice trembling.I pushed past the open door, scanning the hall for any sign of the intruder. There was no one in sight, the only indication of their presence the faint sound of retreating footsteps.I followed the sound, my steps quick and silent, my heart beating in my chest. But as I rounded the corner, the hallway was empty, no sign of the intruder."Show yourself," I snarled, my voice echoing through the hall. "Who dares to spy on me?"The silence that followed was deafening.I took Otsana's hand, leading her down the hall. "Come on," I said, my voice low and reassuring. "We need to get back to our quarters."Otsana nodded, her eyes still wide with fear. As we turned a corner, a c

~RalphI woke with a start, the room coming into focus in a haze of shadow and muted light. As my eyes adjusted, I saw a figure sitting at the edge of my bed, their features blurry and indistinct."Alpha Ralph?" a voice said, the words sickly sweet.I blinked, my voice emerging as a raspy croak. "Nicole?"I tried to sit up, but my body felt weak, the effort draining my already meager strength.Nicole reached out a hand, her touch cool against my skin."Don't try to move, Alpha," she said, her voice cloying "You've been through a lot."I recoiled from her touch, my stomach churning with disgust. "What are you doing here?" I demanded, my voice dripping with venom. "You have no business being in my room."Nicole's smile faltered, her eyes narrowing in anger. "I was only trying to help," she hissed, her hands balling into fists."I see you finally took the antidote," Nicole purred, her voice dripping with smug satisfaction. "The moon goddess must be pleased."Rage coiled through my body,

~RalphI stumbled through the forest, my steps unsteady as I made my way back to the pack. "Otsana," I muttered, the name a whisper on my lips. "Otsana, Otsana, Otsana."Suddenly, I bumped into a solid form. "Alpha!" a voice cried, and I realized it was Callan"Callan," I said, my voice slurring. "Where's Otsana?"Callan looked at me with concern."Otsana?" Callan asked, his voice puzzled. "She's in the maids' quarters, I believe. Why do you ask?"I steadied myself against him, my hands gripping his shoulders. "I need to see her," I said, my words thick with need. "I need to make sure she's safe."Callan frowned. "Alpha, are you sure you're okay?" he asked, his eyes narrowed with concern. "You're not acting like yourself."I shoved away from Callan, my determination fueling me as I stumbled through the pack grounds, my feet thudding against the earth."Otsana," I murmured, the name a chant in my head. "I can't do this. I can't betray the prophecy, I do not wish to die."Finally, I re

~RalphI stood on the balcony of my Chambers, surveying my pack with a sense of pride. The sun was bright overhead, the sky a brilliant blue.As I stood there, I saw a car approaching, its engine rumbling as it made its way toward the compound.I turned to Callan, my Beta, who stood beside me."Are we expecting anyone today?" I asked, my brow furrowing in confusion.Callan shook his head, his expression serious."No, Alpha," he said, his voice tense and cautious."We aren't expecting anyone," he continued, his eyes narrowed with suspicion. "But I've already sent word to all the neighboring packs, including Noah, the Lycan king. They should be arriving any moment now. The battle is in five days, after all."My jaw tightened, a sense of unease washing over me."Keep an eye on whoever it is," I said, my voice firm and commanding. "And send word to the guards."No one enters or leaves this compound without my permission."I rushed to the gate, my heart pounding with anticipation. As I dre
