Ashley/Olivia's POVI could hear beeping sounds and the sounds of footsteps echoing in my head."Am I in a dream land?" I thought as I tried to look ahead of me but everything was blurry.I felt dizzy and a sharp pain hit my head from time to time. I was lying down on the cold floor and I should have frozen to the bone but I was still so warm.When I felt like I could see a little clearly, I placed one hand on the wall for support and the other on the ground. I tried to lift myself from the floor where I was lying down.My buttocks landed on the floor in one attempt but I stood up again, clinging onto the wall as if my life depended on it for support forever."Ouch!" I yelped in pain as I managed to lift my body off the floor and leaned on a hard object with the strength I had in me.My vision was getting clearer and I noticed I was in the storage room.What happened to me? I was in the kitchen just last night and now I am in the food storage.I was not just in any part of the storage
Ashley/Olivia's POVI rushed outside to see the throng of wolves attacking each other. Some others were running to save their lives. There was nothing happening at the alpha's house yet as the invaders advanced from the pack house where they had gotten to now and down to other parts of the pack.Horror creeped up the skins of those who were running around for their safety. I watched as snarling wolves poured in, attacking the innocent."Is this going to be our end?" I heard someone scream.I had expected my heart to flutter and be scared for a while but it did not. I was calm and moved from the alpha's house to the pack house through the chaos."Do you want to be killed immediately, you poor soul! Find somewhere to hide yourself." I looked down to see a girl dragging the hem of my gown."You should find somewhere to hide yourself. I would be save. Hurry a long with your mother now." I smiled warmly at her.The woman beside her looked at me as if I was crazy."Are you one of them? Tha
Ashley/Olivia's POVI stood up panting, my fingers still dripping blood.Martain's gaze was fixed on mine, a mix of shock and gratitude.There was no going back now, I had transformed and killed the wolf so everyone knows I am not just a weak wolf. I had hidden my strength all along.The warriors around me stared at me in awe, a new kind of respect etched on their faces. Even beta Carl joined the others who stared at me like I was the saviour of the pack."This is normal. Why is everyone staring at me like I did something so great?" I mumbled, trying to shake off the awkward feeling I was getting with everyone staring at me."Emily?" Martains called my name as he made his way to where I was standing."You...you transformed?""I knew there was something different about you. I just couldn't get my hands around it. I aren't so surprised. Thank you for saving me and the pack." he said, bowing his head a little.It was getting more uncomfortable for me so I tried to make him stop. He was t
Luciana's POV"No! No! How can this fail? I have planned this carefully for a long time and it just fails in the blink of an eye? Attack was supposed to bring Martins 6 ft down and raze everything down." the broken pieces of vases and breakables made the maid who was in my room jerk in fear."Please calm down, Luna. This is not the end. There must be a way to turn it around for your good.""Turn what around? Do you mean the attack that failed already? Or do you have the power to travel back in time to make sure I conquer Martins and the whole of Oakstone?" I sneered at her."I can't do any of that but burning with roach would not help you one bit. Please become so you do not get suspected of anything, your highness.""Me, a suspect? Hahaha, that is never going to happen. How can anyone suspect a weak loan and like me planning such a big attack on the pack?""Your highness," the maid move closer to my side."What is it? Do you have any good relation to offer?" I snapped at her."There
Ashley/Olivia's POVNow that the truth was out, I would not let Luciana and Greg have their way.My initial plan was to clear my name for myself and get my revenge but the mire I thought about it, I would be exposing the real evil doers on a large scale.The moon goddess indeed thought well before she gave me the opportunity for a second chance. "I must make use of it well." I mumbled as I sat down on my bed."How do I expose Luciana? I can't be rash about things without evidence as no one would believe me and refer to me as trying to slander the queen. What do I do?" My thoughts travelled back and forth and the ideas I thought of were not brilliant enough to catch my fancy or they were not just okay at all."I need evidence, not just paper evidence. I need actual people. if I could get the loyalist of Luciana to testify against her, that would be the best resort. But who would I go after right now?" My train of thoughts was however interrupted by the knock at the door."Are you in,
Ashley/Olivia's POVI knew that getting information from the security guards who had tortured me would not be so easy at first. They were loyal to Luciana, and they would not betray her trust without a good reason. They had full confidence that she could protect them and that no one would ever find out the truth of what they did.She had kept that promise for years and so they must be so assured that nothing could ever happen. Unfortunately, I was back here and I was going to ruin that.I sat at the table and scribbled down something on a heart of paper."This plan is effective from today." I said as I stood up to change into something unnoticeable in the dark.I threw on a black long dress from the wardrobe. It blended with the colour of the night.I was going to head to the dungeon first to see them and play a frightening trick on them.It was quite late into the night and almost all the servants had gone to bed. I looked around the hallway and made sure there was no one in sight
Ashley/Olivia's POVI returned to the house safely and slept like nothing ever happened.The thought of Lance kept filling my mind before I slept off."I wonder how he is doing. How is my baby, little Adrian doing? I wish I did not have to leave but I am truly sorry Lance, this is the only way I can find peace." I laid on the bed and closed my eyes to sleep and I soon slept off. I woke up early the next morning and sneaked out for my morning exercise.I went for a long run in the woods before returning to the house. The day was getting brighter already and the servants were up for the day's task.I I changed and headed straight to the kitchen. As I stepped in, the liveliness in the room dropped to zero level.Everyone continued with their work as if I was not one of them while others eyed me from the corner of their eyes."Am I some sort of plague? I am almost forgetting that I am not one of them so why should I even bother?" I mumbled as I made my way to the counter.I pulled out an
Today was the 5th day of the month of September and counting down, it's been two years since that horrible incident.Lost in thoughts, Ashley stood in front of her mirror trying so hard not to let guilt overwhelm her. Her rain of thoughts is however interrupted by a noise coming from behind her."What's up with you Luciana? You are the only one who has the right to barge into the Luna's room. Even my husband would knock at times." Ashley with arms akimbo pretends to be angry."Try kick me out then. I am sure you can't do that." Luciana lips curved slightly, giving off a sheepish grin as she replied.Luciana knew what her friend was thinking about and she could not help but be happy to see guilt written all over her face. It would make things much easier for others to believe with her attitude.Two years ago, while Ashley and Martins were still in courtship, Martin's niece got missing and the body was found months later.Ashley and Luciana had gone to the alpha's family house to mak
