11. Truth

~Zella~I closed my eyes for a few seconds, calming my nerves. He is so handsome but so damn irritating!“Answer me!” he growled, his tone demanding.Why was he getting annoyed because I successfully made the Blood Canine Pack surrender peacefully? Or was he mad because I didn't want to tell him how I did it? He was naturally curious. My success must have rubbed into his pride and ego in the wrong way. “Your highness, the truth is…there are many ways to make your enemies surrender without resorting to violence. It just happens that I have unique methods. I’m sorry, I can’t reveal them.”“So you finally confess that you made them surrender using a unique method?” He growled. “But you are not going to tell me how you did it?”“Yes, your highness,” I responded firmly. “Rest assured, I’m not your enemy. I’m always on your side. Just that…um…there are some personal things I’d like to keep for myself. I hope you understand.” My tone comes with pleading.He stared at my face, scowling for a

12. Aching Painfully

~Zella~“No. There is nothing to tell you, Alpha. The Moon Goddess simply hears my prayers, that’s all. It’s up to you if you believe it or not.” I stick with my lie to save myself from further trouble.“Really?” he said, smirking. “Go on, keep lying. I will know soon enough how capable you are!”He left and barked his orders at his men. His command to decamp made me happy because we are finally leaving tomorrow.Hooray.Capital, here I come!‘Becca, I’m coming to save you. Hold on a little bit longer!’ I whispered in the wind, hoping the wind would bring my message to my sister Becca somewhere in the palace.…That night, after dinner, I was relaxing, gazing at the stars shining in the sky above.Two hours from now, Alpha Rudy and his men will finally wake up. They won’t wake up at the same time though, they will wake up at intervals.Although I have full trust in Zion’s abilities, I can’t help but feel worried. Sometimes plans don't happen according to plan.Bad things may happen.T

13. Worried

~Zella~After a few minutes of walking, I could already hear the gushing of water. We are getting closer to the stream.When we arrived at the stream, some men were having fun, splashing water on each other while the others were busy filling the bucket with water. They knew I was there but totally ignored me. Fine with me.Roger splashed water on his face, hands and feet. I did the same.The water is cold and refreshing. I love it. It melted the heat away from my body but never totally eradicated the worry I felt for my missing sister.After hearing about the tragic fate of those spies, I can’t get the horror out of my mind. I'm desperate to reach the capital and enter the palace to rescue my sister. I hope she’s still alive.The men finished getting water and left the stream. Now it’s only me and Roger left to enjoy the wonderful view. Refreshing water, looming mountains in the distance, perfect weather and a green scenic view soothed my soul for a few minutes.I was only able to enj

14. Danger!

~Zella~We had an early lunch and then started our trip to the capital. The journey was a little bit bumpy and rough, but the beautiful colorful scenery makes up for the uncomfortable ride.We are traveling on a shortcut road that will take us to the capital in approximately 2 or 3 days depending on the weather, which would normally take one week on the old road.On day one of our journey, we passed different places such as towns and villages.And then we stopped at this progressive-looking town called El Diablo packed with low-rise buildings and establishments.I just came back from the inn after using their clean bathroom. I met Alpha Declan outside the men’s room. He got a fancy suite in the Inn and the rest of his men were housed at the back of the Inn with comfy beds and clean bathrooms.“We are going to the brothel, so my men can have a drink and enjoy the company of lovely ladies. A much-needed relaxation. Do you want to come with us?” Alpha Declan offered when I asked him how

15. Murderous

~Zella~The men murmured to each other, getting excited about the bidding, ignoring the contempt in my eyes.‘I need a new sex slave because my previous one died after I drowned her in the bathtub during our sex play,’ I heard the guy say to his companion.‘I also need a new one because my current sex slave is already ugly after I knocked out all her front teeth after punching her in the face,’ the guy responded, and they both erupted in laughter as if sharing a hilarious joke.Grrr! I’m furious. My blood boiled in rage after hearing of the murder and brutality these women are going to face once bought by these despicable men. They were talking casually as if they were talking about the weather. They don’t have an ounce of remorse or guilt on their faces.The bidding started for the two women in the last metal cage.The cry of fear and hopelessness originating from the women becomes louder, filling the room, squeezing my heart painfully, as if they are calling for my help. I have to b

16. Interrogation

~Zella~The following day, I woke up feeling lethargic, as if I was going to be sick. I’m feeling down, I don’t know why. When I glanced at the wooden cage, Zion was still inside, resting but already wide awake.I opened the window to allow fresh air to enter the carriage. ‘How are you, bro?’ I asked in our mind link.‘I’m feeling great after a long sleep,’ he replied, spreading his wings. ‘I’m going outside to find something to eat.’‘OK, come back soon. Don’t wander too far,’ I told him.‘Okie dokie,’ he replied and flew away.Roger came into view, carrying a wooden tray with him. I opened the door, and he handed me my breakfast.“Breakfast for you, Luna,” he said.“Thank you,” I said with a smile. “Next time, stop calling me Luna. I’m no longer a Luna. I’m now an ordinary woman,” I corrected him.“It was Alpha Declan who ordered me to call you Luna. I always follow his orders," he explained.“Ah, okay…whatever.” After Roger took his leave, I devoured my delicious breakfast consisti

17. In Control

~Zella~“Why? Why are you so eager to leave the room? Do you want to avoid answering all my questions? Are you afraid that your lies will be exposed?” he asked, pressuring me to reveal the truth.I heaved a sigh. “Alpha, as much as I wanted to continue our conversation, I have to go back to the carriage because I’m not feeling well. I’m still reeling from the trauma I was subjected to during my kidnapping. Last night was very traumatizing for me. I nearly died. If not for the Moon Goddess' help, the women and I would not be able to save ourselves. It was so scary, I can still remember the scary eyes of those despicable bidders eating me alive,” I said, teary-eyed, trembling a bit to show him how much the kidnapping affected me.His cold black eyes were still fixed on my face intensely, no sign of pity or mercy.Dang it! It seemed my acting was not working on him at all.This is bad!He still doesn't budge. I have a feeling he won’t let me out of his room until I reveal the truth.“Alp

18. Planning Something

~Zella~I stayed in the carriage most of the time. Doing the same thing repeatedly throughout the day, eating, resting, reading the book and using the toilet in the inn every time the need arose. My whole day went on like that. As for Zion, he’s out of the carriage, enjoying the company of the flowers at the back of the inn.I don’t know what Alpha Declan is doing, but the last time I saw him, before evening arrived, he went out with his trusted men, going somewhere. I prevented myself from asking Roger any questions about Alpha Declan’s activities. That might create suspicion in his mind.That night, I finally left the carriage and stayed outside for a while, looking heavenward, stargazing.That’s when I noticed Alpha Declan looking down at me through the window in his room. I don’t know how long he was looking at me, but the moment I saw him and our eyes met, I quickly rose to my feet and got back into the carriage.Time to sleep.I placed my sleeping mat on the floor, lay down on m

19. This Is Scary!

~Zella~I changed into tight-fitting pants and a long-sleeve blouse for my swimwear. I’m not in the mood to wear anything sexy while swimming with Alpha Declan. I don’t want to appear like I’m flirting or seducing him.Something is off at this beach. I can smell it in the air.But the weather is beautiful, and I can’t let my anxiety get the better of me. Besides, Alpha Declan is a strong guy. He will protect me for sure from the dangers of the sea. Since I’m not a good swimmer, I will just stay in shallow water and enjoy swimming at my own pace.I’m ready to swim, so I left the carriage and waited outside, scanning the horizon. Everything looks calm around me. Nothing could go wrong, right?I could feel Alpha Declan approaching my location. “There you are,” he said when he reached my side. “Are you ready to swim?” he asked.I looked at him and smiled. “Yes, very much. The ocean is beautiful to look at. I love everything about this beach, so beautiful and so peaceful,” I gushed cheeril

20. Begging

~Zella~I was racking my brain trying to nail the correct guess for the Goddess' challenge. Who is she? I can only give one answer and if I fail, everything I know and live for will disappear. I don’t want to become the Goddess’ minion to serve her forever.I want to continue my life as it is.Besides, I had a mission to accomplish and that was to find out what happened to my missing sister.I have to identify her identity correctly. Since I met the goddess in the water, she should be the goddess of the ocean. Nothing else.I’m sure of it!But wait a minute… Isn’t that too easy?This goddess looked cunning and had a mischievous personality. She would not give me an easy pass, right?What if she is the Moon Goddess Selene herself?What if—?Now I have two guesses. How to choose the correct one? It’s getting more confusing for my brain to process.Is this mysterious woman the Goddess of the sea Amphitrite or the Moon Goddess Selene of werewolves?Ugh! This is annoying.I need the right
