26. Clement
The mildly spicy soup tasted bland. My fever had subsided and my heat was over. It’s been a few days since I saw the outside world and today, I planned to step my foot outside this room. Astrid has been anxious the whole time. The pills helped and sometimes, I tried to self-heal, but my mental health was going down the drain. My thoughts kept wandering back to what Clarissa said that day. Even though she had apologized that evening for saying something out of line, but I knew she wasn’t lying.
“Is the soup not to your liking, Luna?” Clarissa pulled me out of my reverie. I looked up, the spoon fell into the bowl, splashing a few drops of soup on my face. Her eyes widened and she hurriedly went to wipe them away. I blinked but didn’t say anything immediately.“No it’s good,” I murmured after taking another spoonful and gulping it. This was my favorite soup, made just the way I liked. I was astounded to find Clarissa had managed

Alpha Isaac 27. Humiliated
I was feeling proud of my wolf and sad at the same time. Whatever I have studied in my high school days about our culture and origin, I’ve always somehow felt bad for the animals. They are attached to us, literally, becoming a part of us from who they can’t separate even if they might want to at some point. We humans are so fucked up that while we do not have our shits together, they care about finding their mates. As we trotted down the forest trail, I could feel Astrid’s pain because we are one, aren’t we? This she-wolf has longed to be accepted by her mate. But what happens? She gets me as her human counterpart. ‘I have never regretted our bond, Kat,’ she murmurs. She has matured within a span of a few years. From father’s retort and mother’s stinging comments to our sister’s showing off her perfect life, Astrid ha
Alpha Isaac 28. The Tussel between Lust and Feels
[Isaac] It is because I find it so hard to control my desires. It is because I find it so difficult to keep Clement from infusing and taking over partially. It is because I find her attractive. It is because I don't know how else to react. I told myself, my elf….maybe convinced ourselves to believe these things. Otherwise, I know I will allow in self-pity and feed that wench’s ego and happiness. I am a rotten creature inside out. I don’t know how to be civil, don’t know how to react any other way, so I react rashly. I spew out venomous words that are bound to hurt the other like I did to Kathryn just now. Had Clement not stopped me, I would have said far worse things. I could feel her tears as our lips meshed together, I pressed her into the bed and she didn’t protest. I could feel that somewhere between living here and trying to survive, she had lost the figh
Alpha Isaac 29. Accidentally Spilling the Tea
My eyes cracked open and an instant regret washed over my sore and tired body. I stared at the ceiling for some time, mulling over my shamelessness and desperation that a certain Alpha….no Enigma managed to bring out of me. The emotions that swirled like a storm and rattled the bones in my body were familiar, too familiar for my liking. I hated myself for giving in to my primal needs and tried to make peace with it because that is what I would be for the rest of my life. I sighed, feeling a clench in my chest. A wayward glance out of the window made me realize that dusk had already rolled in. I felt like crying but I couldn’t cry. I sat up, the sheets rustled, falling from my naked chest and pooling around my waist. As expected, Isaac was gone like I was a mistress and after every passionate meeting, he leaves and returns to his wife. A bitter chuckle bubbled up my throat. I shook my
Alpha Isaac 30. The Dependent Pack
When I came to a safe distance, near but not so near that anyone could recognize my wolf, I changed back. The patrol guards strolled from one corner of the border to another. I took in a shuddering breath. Being an alpha came handy sometimes because we didn’t have to discard our clothes or belongings inside them. They just….stayed. How or why? That was a question even people researching werewolves couldn’t answer. I fished out my phone to find several missed calls from Marcus. I turned it off completely and pushed it back into my back pocket. I walked towards the border, unbothered and unafraid. My footsteps alerted the guards. One immediately took a menacing stance before he sniffed the air and as if a switch had been flipped he bared his throat. It was really funny how they showed respect when I know all they would like is to kill me or hurt me. I could sense their anger and warring emotions - a disadvantage when it came to being a white wolf Healer. “I would like t
Alpha Isaac 31. Conquests
My back straightened at the mention of the curse. So far, only Georgi had addressed it directly and Helen had almost alluded to it but had never elaborated about it. “Curse?” Sierra’s lips stretched into a wider curve, her eyes, however, glinted with sickening satisfaction. She leaned back on the sofa, folded her hands and regarded me for some time. This stance of hers irritated me to no end. Any and every sympathy for this woman and her son evaporated at that moment. This woman…still trying to hold on to the beauty she might have once possessed with the terrible makeup skills and trying to pretend to be a proud Luna at the same time made my skin crawl. I restrained myself from commenting on these things and waited patiently. My hands rested on the lap, fingers digging into my palms as she let the silence stretch like rubber. “If… you don’t have to say anything about the curse-” “Every Alpha of the Renaud pack is bestowed with this curse,” she said, completely ignoring my earlier
Alpha Isaac 32. An Oracle in the Pack
The next morning, Clarissa didn’t mention our conversation and neither did I. We made a silent agreement to not talk about it. Somehow I felt that this whole pack has a murky history that no one really likes to talk about. I have not met the Elders of this pack, which is kind of odd because Elders usually don’t leave away, but I haven’t come across a single one. I finished my breakfast quickly and headed downstairs. Marcus was as usual in the office. I’ve never seen him outside this room, ever. Maybe because he has to do most of the work. Today, however, I saw James as well. We exchanged formal greetings before he left. Marcus shot me a pointed look. He was quickly becoming annoyed at my presence, no longer trying to be formally polite. It didn’t bother me though. I took a seat in the one that James had occupied. “I m
Alpha Isaac 33. The Untold Secrets of the Pack
He didn’t wait around. He left, his bestial side taking rein as he leapt out of the window. I stared at the window, preoccupied with other thoughts. Was… Isaac ready to share his secrets? Was he ready to tell me about…his condition? I was confused and shaken. What Janet said…I looked at my belly. My heart pounded as I put a trembling hand over my flat stomach. A child? My child… mine and… Isaac’s. I let out a shaky breath and gazed at the stack of books kept on the coffee table. I slowly went to sit on the sofa, on the spot where he was sitting some time ago. I stared at the first book. A yellowed cover, almost a few decades old, lay inconspicuously on top of the other books. I should divert my mind. What if Janet’s vision is wrong? I have never met an oracle until today, but I have heard that not everything they say is written in stone. Having nothing better to do or think about, I picked up the first book titled ‘Renaud pack’s Rise and Fall’ which was written by Al Mauvin. ~~
Alpha Isaac 34. Doing a Favour
“Whether I treat you like a plaything or as my mate, is something I get to decide, pet,” he murmured. I shivered at the use of a new nickname. It took some time for my mind to register his words. However, he did not stop. His lips skimmed down the length of my throat, grazing over the mark. The cool surface of the wooden table created goosebumps on my rapidly cooling but still scorched and sweat-drenched skin. My breath hitched as his lips made a downward trek, nipping my left collarbone where I already knew a bruise was forming. I bit back a whimper when his tongue flicked my over sensitive nipple. But my restraint must have not been up to his liking because I screamed when he harshly bit the nub and took it in his mouth. It was hours ago when I had sneered at him for treating me like that, which made him angry. He took me against the shelves and then on the desk. His furs had sprouted, but he was still somewhat human. “Isaac,” I moaned. I tried to push him away because the sens
