Two Sides of Him

Third PersonAfter dinner, Liora and Keal returned to their room. Everywhere was quiet, and the unspoken words between them weighed even heavier.Liora walked over and claimed her side of the bed, drawing the duvet over her. She watched him stand before the giant glass balcony door, his hands buried in his pockets.“You should have said something,” she whispered.Keal’s breath hitched, and she noticed.“Like?” he asked coldly.Liora’s anger flared up instantly. “Like assassins will be coming... like you should be careful... like give me something or ask me to prepare something to protect myself,” she growled, sitting up. All she was trying to do was communicate, and he had to act like... as if it were nothing.“Then have you make them suspicious and spoil everything?... Never."Those words cut deeper than any blade.“Never,” Liora chuckled bitterly. “So you think I am incapable of helping? You think I am so stupid that I will jeopardise your great plan?” she yelled.Keal pinched his n

Sympathy with Teeth

Third PersonThat morning, everyone woke a little energetically. Now it was one day until the conference.Guests had begun arriving, and the news of Luna's sudden illness reached the ears of the council.Liora stirred on the bed. Her eyes slowly welcomed the light of day, and on the balcony were Kael and Varik, who seemed to have stepped in not long ago.Liora turned to the spot beside her; it was cold but dense.He had joined her at one point after she slept and had woken up early, as always.“An urgent council meeting has been called, and Prime Minister Caswell did emphasize your presence.”"Okay." Kael nodded and said nothing more.“Do you think they will?"“They won’t back down,” Kael said dismissively. “Not when the road seems more open than ever.”Varik nodded and turned to leave when Kael called him back.“The last of the attending guests will be arriving by the earliest hours of dawn, and after that, the border should be locked.”“Yes, Alpha,” Varik said and walked out.The be

Ten Suitcases to a Throne

Third PersonKael’s lips curled. He loved this reaction more; the masks of fakeness were slipping, and now everyone was representing their true selves.So, with stretched lips, he turned to the Prime Minister.“Or does the Godfather have a better option?”Seven words, and hope sparked in their eyes like life from a dying fire.Varik watched, and within, he smiled.The bait was in action.The council sat with expectant gazes, everyone looking up to Prime Minister Caswell to say the needful.“Kael,” Prime Minister Caswell began with all decorum and seriousness, “the pack has held the Luna Queen title for generations, and it would be a slap in the face to let another take it just because our Luna is sick and unable to make it.”Kael nodded.“But she can still be awarded the title without being present, right?” Kael asked.The ministers and elders quickly shook their heads like trapped toddlers.“Yes… But no,” Logan Montreal trailed off.“The title is the greatest of all to be awarded to

Chains of Loyalty

Third PersonPlans were in motion, and before Prime Minister Caswell’s feet touched the earth of his mansion, actions were already in motion.But unlike the quiet and sulking scene of his daughter, which he had expected upon his return, he was welcomed with a jovial atmosphere.Two of his cars were gone, and her two ladies-in-waiting stood at the front of the mansion as if someone had just left.“Greetings, Prime Minister,” Clara and Mina bowed.“Where is Yella?” Prime Minister Caswell demanded.“Lady Yella has left with Beta Varik for the Alpha’s guest residence,” Mina murmured.“Good news sure travels fast.”Prime Minister Caswell’s lips stretched, and he walked in with a proud look.But not everyone was as happy upon hearing the sudden change of events.Inside the living area, on the single-seat armchair of a three-piece set, sat Mrs. Caswell. Her face was dark, and her nails dug into her palms.The moment her husband stepped in, she didn’t wait for him to settle down.“So you’ve s

A Crown Without a Mark

Third PersonThat night, the guest residence prepared to receive another occupant. The ride wasn't long, but to Yella, it felt like an eternity. The guards opened the gate, and instead of one car as they had expected, three cars drove in, with two carrying the prime minister's plaque.Yella stepped out as the car settled, and with her, Elise climbed down and brought out the valise within the Alpha's car."Bring out the rest, and Beta Varik will show you to my room," Yella announced, and Varik's face had never darkened in so little time."I am not your servant... I am the Alpha's Beta, not some errand boy," Varik hissed."Oh, come on, Varik. We all know I will soon be Luna, and you will have to take orders from me, so why don't we start rehearsing?” Yella turned to the guards and maids, who stood with their mouths hanging open. "Come on... chop chop, carry everything... nothing should be missing," she ordered and then turned back to Varik. "Lead the way, Beta."Varik's eyes shone wit

stepping into her space

Third PersonYella did not dare object further; she followed behind like an obedient child and was led to a room at the end of the long hallway, as if she were something they were trying to hide. Behind her, Elise couldn’t hold her anger, her fingers clenched on her lady’s belongings.“This arrangement is not good enough,” Elise cried. “My lady will be doing the alpha and luna a favor and should be treated as a guest, a savior, and not some trash you all can’t wait to discard.”Agatha’s eyes instantly darkened, and she turned swiftly. Her fingers landed across Elise’s left jaw, making her stumble back; a few of the items she was holding found their way to the marble floor.“Who are you to question the decision of the alpha?” Agatha hissed.“If she is a savior, then she can demand better when she saves whatever needs to be saved. But as of now, I am in charge, and I will do as I want.”Yella’s jaw clenched, but she forced a smile. Her head tilted to the side, and her eyes landed on Eli

Crawling Toward a Throne

Third PersonAs Maddox walked back in, Yella tried standing, but her body collapsed back on the ground with a great thud, and a painful moan escaped her trembling lips.“My lady!” Elise rushed towards the stairs, but her path was quickly blocked by a servant.“No one is allowed up without permission.”“But... she is in pain, and I am not going to see the Luna. I just want to help bring my lady down,” she cried, but no one was ready to show Yella any sympathy.“Since your lady regarded herself above the law and trespassed on a forbidden zone, she must be more than capable of bringing herself down,” Agatha’s taunting voice echoed.“She is in pain... what if she is bleeding?” Elise pleaded.“And how is that my problem? The orders are clear, and she broke them, so she should have thought of how to get herself down since she decided to climb up.”Elise’s jaw clenched. Tears burned in her eyes.“You will regret this... the prime minister wouldn’t let you off so easily. Just you wait and see

The Hour Before Ruin

Third PersonThe morning of the conference finally arrived. As the sun awakened everyone, the atmosphere in the Darkmoon Pack was optimistic, and by mid-morning, the last of the guests had arrived, and the borders were closed. The crowning of the Luna was scheduled for noon on the dot, an auspicious time.Hence, by eight, Yella was up like everyone else and had begun preparing. Her back still hurt, but she forced herself to have a full bath and not just wipe herself down. The guest house was busy, as were other important homes such as the Prime Minister’s mansion.Elise was still trying to straighten the dress they had prepared for Yella when a resounding knock echoed.“Coming,” Elise answered and rushed to the door.As the frame creaked open, there stood Agatha with two servants behind her.“I suppose Lady Yella had a splendid night?” she asked, her voice cold but not bitter.Elise nodded. “Here are the items prepared for her by the Alpha, and he has ordered her to be brought to the

The Crown Descends

Third PersonThe conference hall was decorated with decorum. Shimmering chandeliers hung from the ceiling, their crystal lights falling across the room. Black, purple, and gold drapes spread across the windows, bearing Darkmoon’s crest. Banners hung on the walls, and guards stood at every corner, steady, calm, and still. Their presence was firm, and their eyes glanced around with precision and focus.Each table carried a bottle of water, no alcoholic drink, and a bottle of alcoholic champagne. Glasses were placed according to the number of representatives per invite. For the warlocks, only two representatives had accompanied the returned invitation; for the witches, three; and packs came in tens. For alphas who couldn’t bring their Lunas, they filled the gap with nobles and other important personalities, while Darkmoon, the hosting pack, had a twenty-person seat reserved, excluding the Alpha and Luna.Distinguished guests entered in order of rank, and their seats were placed accordin

Luna Queen

Third PersonThe time clicked eleven forty-nine when she appeared at the door. Heads turned, a wave of energy swept through the room, but she didn’t step in, not so soon.At the front, Kael stood up, straightened his dress, and casually walked down, one hand still in his pocket and the other by his side. His face remained neutral.Yella’s lips stretched. She drew in a long breath, her hands eagerly reaching for him, but as he got closer, not even a glance was cast her way. He walked past so swiftly that the force nearly caused her to fall.“My lady," Elise reached for Yella, who stumbled backward.Her eyes burned with unshed tears, but Yella was stubborn. She refused to be so close to the crown, to power, and to back down so easily. Yes, Liora was weak; she wasn’t the only weak one. With one glance, the elders would reject her, the delegations would not cast another glance, and the crown…Yella’s gaze settled on the glowing crown.It would choose her, and not some woman who would die
