Samantha I woke up in a comfortable bed. My surrounding wasn't familiar. I sat up and looked around. I found the yellow and red roses in a vase next to the bed. Everything started coming back to me. Alex was my mate. I couldn't believe it. What a cruel joke. The meanest and most obnoxious wolf was my mate. How could the moon goddess be cruel? "Don't be quick to judge," Helena said. "Welcome back," "What happened?" I asked her. "I emerged. I had to. They were going to kill him. So I emerged to save his life. Being our first time, it took a lot of energy from our human body, but we are okay now." she explained. "I see," I said. There was a knock at the door, and I asked the person to enter. It was the matron of the Alpha's quarters. She had a scornful look on her face. She was carrying a tray of food. She dumped it angrily on the table by the wall. "Who the hell do you think you are? " She began in anger. " Do you know how long I had worked here? How dare you report me to Alpha Al
Samantha The next day was hell at the staff quarters. Alpha Alex had given me the day off. He ordered Rebecca to bring me food. I was afraid if she kept bringing me food, she would eventually poison the food. I knew I couldn't remain in my new room the whole day, so I decided to step out. I managed to get out of the staff quarters without coming in contact with the staff. When I got out, I decided to go and check my old room. I had some Jane Austen books that I found in the dump when I arrived newly. The books had been my only source of entertainment. Whenever I got off work early, I would read. Two girls approached me while I was on my way to my old room. "Rogue," the blonde one said, I knew her father was one of the top people in the pack, but I didn't know her name. " The word out there is that you have lived up to your dog reputation," she said, and they both began to laugh. I kept my head down, trying to avoid them, but they won't let me be. The blonde girl pushed me to the g
Alex I took Samantha straight to my room and sent for one of the pack doctors to come and tend to her wounds. I couldn't understand why she refused to tell me who did this to her. "Why won't you tell me?" I asked her, not knowing made me frustrated. I needed to see my father, but I was afraid of leaving her alone. When the doctor came, I was finally comfortable to go see my father. "Don't worry, she's in good hands," Doctor Martins assured me. He knew she was my mate, that was the only reason he agreed to attend to her. He was very happy for me. When I got to my father's office, I found him pacing. He was so deep in thoughts that he did not notice me come in. "Father," I said, to call his attention. Once he heard my voice, he snapped out of his deep thoughts. "Alex," he said, letting me know I had his attention. "Have you figured out what to do yet?" I asked him. "I don't have a choice, son. I know this will hurt you, but I have to say it. Mating and marking your mother was t
Alex Since it was now known to everyone that Sam was my mate, there was no need to hide anymore. I stopped her from working as a servant, and my father gave her a room in the Alpha quarters. Anytime I had to leave the settlement, Robert would help me watch over her. Although my father had warned the pack, especially my mother, I knew how stubborn she could be. I couldn't take any chances. Mason was still reluctant to accept Sam as my mate. He tried to talk me into rejecting her like he had rejected his mate, but every time he brought it up, I shut him down. It was obvious he wasn't whole anymore. His emptiness, though he denied it, became more obvious when Alisa died. He was angry at my family for the way the girl was treated, b
Alex "Here's your room.." I said, showing Sam the room I prepared for her. I knew we couldn't stay in the same room. I needed her to relax. This was an attempt to get to know her better. I was willing to take it slow. "You could freshen up and change into pyjamas. I did some shopping for you earlier. There are some clothes in the wardrobe for you to use. I will be at the fireplace in case you need me. " I explained, and she nodded. I hoped I could get her talking. I wouldn't achieve much if she remained like this. I excused her and went to sit by the fireplace. Samantha I knew my behaviour towards Alex was awkward, but I couldn't help it. He had scarred me beyond imagination. I could see the effort he was making, but I just couldn't let myself believe his intentions were pure. I admired the way he stood up to his mother on my behalf, but that also bothered me. I didn't want to be the reason for their problems. I knew the moon goddess had chosen him for me, and sooner or later, I wo
*warning Mature content* Samantha I woke up the next morning feeling light. There was a warmth in my heart that I had never felt before. I wondered where it came from. "That is what acceptance feels like," Helena said to me, and I giggled. I showered and got dressed for the day. I found a pair of jeans and a green t-shirt among the clothes Alex bought. The clothes were a lot decent than the nightclothes. It was as if two different people had picked them out. I went out and found Alex making breakfast. He was trying to make breakfast. The kitchen was a mess. "Morning," I said, and he looked up and smiled. "Morning...This isn't what it was supposed to look like," he explained, trying to explain the mess. "Really, What was it supposed to look like?" I ask curiously. I walked to him and grabbed an apron. "Apple pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs and freshly squeezed orange juice," he explained. I giggled a bit and began to put things together for breakfast. Alex helped but stayed aw
Alex. I couldn't sleep after what Robert had told me. I knew the Blood moon pack wouldn't be easily appeased. I was also sure that my father knew that it would be hard for them to accept his offer. I remembered the way the Alpha wolf stared at me when they attacked. If it weren't for my mate, I would have been dead. This was indeed a serious matter. If word got out about what my mother had done, other packs that were allies of the blood moon could attack us. The blood moon pack was a very friendly and accommodating pack that wasn't far from us. They were kind to wolves and easily took people in. If other packs should find out, we were doomed. I wondered what my mother was thinking when she did what she did. How did she believe she would get away with it. My mother was still yet to understand the ranking system. The size of a pack did not count in the ranking system as most wolves thought. It was the strength of the pack that mattered. I was angry with my mother. I didn't want to
Alex While at the meeting, I felt uneasy. Damien was restless, and I could swear I heard Sam calling. I couldn't excuse myself, and I couldn't send Robert until after the meeting. Whatever it was, I hoped Sam could wait. "I don't know what to do," my father confessed. "let's try and dialogue with them again and see if we can agree," Robert's father, Beta Carter, said. " It won't work," I said, " They are out for blood, and they were specific about whose blood they want." "We can't just hand over our Luna without a fight, it would indicate we are weak." Mason's dad, Delta Ashton Whitespear, pointed out, and his son agreed. My generation started attending the pack council meeting ever sin
