Chapter 3: The strangers
.*.*.*Amelia's POV*.*.*.Happiness dripped off my body as I moved gracefully with my swords. "Two steps forward, two steps back" were the words that came out of my mouth as I fought my opponents effortlessly. Yeah, those words weren't just nothing, they were my dance steps. I've been practicing for a week on how to dance gracefully for my coronation but I'll tell you it's the worse experience ever.Dancing is hard!I had never looked so frustrated with training like how I look an hour after learning a dance move. Geez, dancing is tiring and frustrating —when you dont get the moves quickly— but I tend to get it after singing it.I raised my sword higher and took a step forward while I balanced my stand before placing the sharp tip near my opponents neck. The time off whistle was blown and I smiled."Princess Amelia won!" He announced and the warriors clapped. I courtseyed shortly before making my way out of the main field and I to the changing room. My movement were altered when I stared ahead at the main road which led to pack house, different black cars were following Max and Tina's lead."Who are they?" I muttered with a frown. Staring at those cars sent fear down my spine and I felt Ana's uneasiness too. "I don't feel good about this visitors."Do you think our mate's wolf is the one howling out to us? Ana asked but I shook my head in disagreement. No, Ana. Mates don't make thier loved ones feel uncomfortable. The feeling we have is probably something else which we need to get to the root of. I answered, while taking a sharp turn towards the changing room.It took me less that twenty minutes to finish my business in the bathroom and get myself dressed. I wasn't that fast when it comes to dressing up but I was so curious to know who our visitors are.At this time, the sun was already setting so I calmly walked back the path that led to the Pack house but my racing heart was controlled when I entered the house which was so lively, the aroma of whatever food the maids were cooking too gave the house a fine smell too."Why is everyone working as if nothing happened while I'm here feeling uncomfortable." I mumbled while I head for the stairs which led to my parents office. On getting to the door, I knocked gently and waited for a 'come in' bedfore opening the door."Good afternoon, father." I bowed shortly then did the same to the visitors seated in front of him. I raised my head and stared at the five strangers, they were all dressed in black. Two sat in front of dad while the other three sat on the couch behind."Welcome, my dear. Oh, Alpha Sky, meet my daughter, Amelia. Amelia, meet Alpha Sky, the Alpha of the Brown rock Pack." I watched my dad introduce me to the strangers with a frown. Brown rock Pack? Isn't that our long time rival? I asked my dad through our mindlink. "They've come to form an ally with us, my dear and they also want to wait till after your coronation." He answered out loud and I frowned but covered it up with a smile quickly."Oh," was the only word that came out of my mouth. Even after the explanation about their arrival, I still feel so uneasy about them."Nice to meet you too, Amelia." Alpha Sky bowed shortly with a smile which totally creeps Ana out."Same here." I returned the same smile then glanced at my father before making my way out of the office."My lady.""Tom, father all the guards and double them on each point. I feel so uneasy about these visitors." I whispered to the chief guard who stood beside the office door gallantly."Roger that, my lady!" I didn't wait to watch his order in action as I make my way down the stairs, I took the exit and walked straight into my house which was built five feet behind the Pack house."Something is wierd about these strangers in black but I can't figure it out." I groaned out frustratingly."I feel uneasy about their visit too, Lia. Aren't they our rival?" I turned at Elias's voice and nodded. "It's wierder that the Alpha came with them too." He added and I hummed."At least I'm not the only one who feels that. Do you think they're up to something?" I asked and he sighed."I can't conclude now but I'll tell Tom to keep an eagle eye on them." He assured and I nodded. Making my way into my kitchen, I picked out the frozen meatballs from my refrigerator and placed it on the slab."Hey, I'll get it done for you. Go and rest, your dance class is in an hour." Elias said and I groaned. He laughed. "Don't mock me, I hate dancing." I growled and he laughed harder."It's just a night dance, you'll get it." He pay my back and I rolled my eyes. "It'll be fine, my Luna." He kissed my hair and turned to my meatballs."Can I just sit here and watch you cook?" I asked and he nodded."Anything that makes you feel like a princess, my lady." He answered and I smiled while taking my sit on the stool."Thanks, Beta Elias." He chuckled at the title but didn't say anything.Chapter 4: We'll meet again. .*.*.*Amelia's POV*.*.*."Good morning, my lady." Maidservant Bell's voice met my ear as I opened my eyes. "Bell?""Yes, my lady?""What's happening today? Why am I hearing loud music and the jolly laughter of the Pack members?" I asked dumbly, turned my neck gently so I could see her only to see her giggle softly then smiled."It's your coronation day, my lady." She answered and I frowned."My coronation? My coronation!" I yelled and sat, Bell was already laughing. "I've made your bath." She said and exited the room. I looked around my room and grinned thenstood up. Taking my time in the bathroom, I made my way into the closet and picked out a blue floral gown which stopped at my knee before topping it with a black sandal. Applying little makeup to my face, I made my hair into a bun and made my way out to only meet Elias at my door. "Good morning, my queen." He courtseyed and I chuckled before pulling him into a hug. "I'm going to be crowned today, E
Chapter 5: My dutyEighteen years later*.*.*Rihanna's POV*.*.*."It's our last morning in school, Anna. How do you feel?" Jake, my training partner asked from the other end of the room and I shrugged. "I feel satisfied." I answered simply while I dropped my gun on the table and pick up a small dagger. "I feel like I can take down ten men within twenty minutes." I smiled and he choked on his coffee. "Oh no, Anna. You take down ten men in five minutes." He shook his head in disbelief and I laughed. "Well, I feel stronger." I added a 9mm into my bag before zipping it up. "Bye man, see you in six months." I pat his shoulders and I walked out of the armory. "Remember to call me when you get home!" He called over and I gave a thumbs up before making my way into barracks. Picking up my phone, I walked out only to meet Ayesha at the entrance. She glared at me and I smirked."Have a nice holiday, Ayesha." I waved and she turned away. Ayesha isn't a friend not is she an enemy, we just don'
"Rihanna dinner's ready" mom called "I'll be down in five " I called back from my room.Daniel fulfilled his promise faster than I expected he would and I was back to my room in less than two hours. Looking at myself in the mirror, I smiled satisfied with the orange crop top on my black flair skirt which stopped at my knee, that I was wearing. I didn't want dad to call me himself so I rushed down to the table. "Hey Dan" I said patting his back with one hand while the other pulled a chair beside him. Settling down I served myself and dugged into the delicious meal. After the meal I sat at my mother's feet, she always looked forward to me seating at her feet telling her all about my day's work and today, she is eager to hear all about my training, my dad too was, only Dan didn't give a damn about it. As I told them about the training days trying to summarize, Dan pushed open the door calling out to me . Alarmed I stood up running to him"What's wrong?" I asked worried"Guess who I cam
ihanna's pov "I can't keep it any longer, Amelia. I can't—" I frowned as I felt his shaky breath against my face. "You can't keep what?" I asked, worry written all over my face as I stared at my best friend. "Tell me, Eli. We don't keep things from eachother, remember?" I urged him but him only smiled out and let go off my face."I can't keep this overprotective feeling I have anything I see those Pack warriors eye you or touch you. It's nothing actually, I'll get over it with time." My worried features dropped into a disappointed one at his confession. "Holy angels! You scared me." I breathe out in relief and he chuckled, not without muttering a 'sorry' though. "It's okay. I also feel like that too anytime I see you with Tina... I know she's just your training partner but I really feel uneasy anytime I see you both together." I confessed too and for some unknown reason, I felt at ease after saying that."Jealousy?" "Yes." My mouth spilled before my brain could think. My cheeks b
Elias's pov I stood there fixed staring at the roof top, slowly Max turned and headed home all I could do was close my eyes and allowed him take us home. I could hear Rina's voice calling out to me as I walked into the pack but I didn't have time for her neither did I feel like talking to her. Getting to my room I dropped on the bed, I had already changed back to my human form before entering the pack in my short holding my shirt on one hand. She's alive I heard Max say after a while, he seemed to be handling the whole thing better than I was. I didn't say a word, do you think she didn't recognize us?I told him I didn't know. He kept quiet and then spoke again, do you think she found her mate? He asked and my heart skipped a beat immediately. Feeling my uneasiness he added well there's every tendency for that to happen, right? All i could say was she is alive Max. Different thoughts ran through my mind as I laid down, could it be that she ran away because she was ashamed? Or was she
Rihanna's pov I woke feeling a little sick, I went down only to meet my mom yawning as she walked tiredly to the dinning table"You look like a mess" I blurted "I know, I barely slept last night" she admitted "Yeah, mom " I called sitting next to her "I understand you are a married woman and of course you have every right to screw your man but can you guys at least do it in your room, there are children in the house with you, young adults, common" "No, no, no, no!" I heard Dan exclaimed running to the table "big sis, please don't say that again I beg of you" pleaded sitting opposite me on the table, I'm cool with them doing anything they want to in the living room, you're fine with it too, you don't wanna know what happens in their room" he said sounding serious "What?" I asked confused, wondering what could be worse than what they did last night, looking at my mom, she was so red with laughter "Your mother screams; fuck me baby , go harder, deeper, that's the spot, oooh, yeaaah
After reporting at the office, I sat down with Ayesha under the moonlight. After exchanging pleasantaries, I asked how she spent her six months and was shocked to hear that she had been into hookups and meeting up with different guys. I felt embarrassed about the fact that I could see another person who was likely to end up like my mom screaming in the middle of the night while making love, to the annoyance of the neighbors. After hearing how she spent her long vacation, I opened up as I narrated all that I went through from the dreams to the encounter with the big brown wolf, to the revelation from my mom, to how I almost got raped by my childhood friend and how I halucinated changing into a beast , and the brief illness that followed. She listened keenly but didn't say a word, she seemed to be in a deep thought, she looked at me from my head to my toes, my eyes and teeth , then she asked how I have been coping with my anger issues, I told her I wasn't overly angry to the point of
Rihanna's pov"I don't understand what you're trying to say Ayesha," I said getting out of bed throwing my duvet away " are you saying I'm a beast ? a werewolf ? what's that supposed to mean?" I asked raising my voice as I paced around the room."Please calm down" she pleaded"Don't tell me to calm down" I yelled"I said calm down" she shouted grabbing my shoulders roughly scaring me" you are getting to understand this whole wolf thing, the more worked up you get, the more dangerous it is for those around you, do you want your wolf to feel you're in danger and attack me huh?" she screamed in my ear, and for a moment I wondered if I was the beast or she was, calm and steady, I sat on the bed, Ayesha took a deep breath, then taking my hand she continued "I know this is hard for you, it is hard for me too, but please listen to me I beg of you" she added very calmly. "based on what I gathered from my research, you seem to have reincarnated,
