Both Emandra and Chase did not see the big deal in naming the Shadows but it was clear everyone thought otherwise of it. ‘’What rule are you talking about?’’ Emandra asked, pulling away from Chase but staying close enough for him to have his hands around her hip. ‘’We shouldn't be talking about this now, why don't you two get some rest while the council deliberates on when you take over, and after that, we can trash out this issue’’ Granny announced but no one moved an inch. ‘’Granny, I need to know. They are my mate and part of me, we won't be leaving here if everything is not cleared out’’ Emandra was truthful to her words. She stood her ground and everyone was grateful for that for they all wanted nothing but for Emandra to be tossed out alongside her mate. ‘’The throne has been empty for too long. We only have an heir and not two, hence Princess Emandra will be taking the place of her mother while her half-sister who has been trained and groomed to take the place of her mother
While Emandra was ordered by the doctor to get more rest, Granny Reeker and the others held a private meeting to discuss the pressing issue and it was finalized on the conclusion, Emandra would be crowned acting queen while her mate would only take the place of the king if the king happens to be death. The ministers did not budge on their decision, they were more than willing to compromise on the case of emandra but they were not on the case of Alpha Chase. The thought of having a werewolf rule them was a bitter pill they were not willing to swallow. Shane has been hanging around Granny Reeker all day, too afraid to move closer to Enzo. There was just something about the man that made his heart skip a beat and rise rapidly at his words and closeness. He could not seem to take his eyes or hands away from him, the closer he was to him the more he wanted to hold him. Have his hands in his hair and play with his cheeks. Such feelings were not easy to come by and Shane was away from tha
‘’Enzo and I will have to return to the pack. A rebellion is quickly rising and I have to be there”’ Chase tells emandra taking her hands into his. He knew for a fact she needed him but the people needed him as well. As alpha, it is his responsibility to take care of them and make sure they are safe. ‘’You can't leave me here all by myself’’ emandra cries into his arms. Too much was happening and she could not get her hands around it. While everyone regarded her as a nobody and unfit queen, she only had her mate to rely on. ‘’You can't leave her alone’’ Shane spoke from behind. Emandra turned to the little brother she missed so much. She had just had so much going on in her life recently that she barely spent time with him. ‘’Come here’’ emandra asked of Shane who obediently walked over to his sister. ‘’What happened Shane, why did you turn up here,’’ Emandra asked worriedly. It was not the time but these questions have long been overdue. ‘’Why aren't you home with Mother and t
The moon was still to give way to the sun when Sarah and the others were woken up by the screaming noise coming from within the pack house yet again. It has been going on for a while and no one dares say a word about it. While they usually start working by 5 am, recently they have only been called upon. Sarah says on their bed wondering what was happening, ever since the mysterious noise from the pack house, she hasn't gotten the time or called upon to visit Paris. Everyone knew the alpha did not want people around her hence he kept everyone away. ‘’What's going on Mara? Why do they scream every morning and we clean blood when we go to the pack house?’’ Sarah could not hide her curiosity anymore. She wanted to know if the new changes happening in the pack house were too quick. No time to adjust and another comes yet again. ‘’Sarah, have you heard of the saying, curiosity kills the cat?’’ Mara asked, rather annoyed. She was not best of friends with Sarah and she was not going to
Sarah’s shocked expression was all it took for Paris to know they were in for a long talk. ‘’What exactly do you mean by the alpha attacked you, Luna?’’ Sarah asked turning to face Paris. Paris looked at the worried expression on her face and could only sigh. ‘’Sarah, he doesnt love me and no one else. It's not about Luna or me not being a blessed child anymore. The alpha we all knew is way different from the one we know now” Paris did not know of any better words to express what she felt or saw. “‘’I dont get you luna, why is the alpha suddenly different?’’ Sarah asked. The words of Paris were making no sense to her. She did not see why there was something wrong with the alpha. ‘’I know he has fallen out of love with you but still wants you close as his concubine. But all this does not add up” Paris did not know how to say it. It was still a misery to her. Everything so fast for her to get a grasp of it, she did not see reasons why he wanted her death.“He attacked me last night,
Sarah could only cry on behalf of Paris. How could someone put up with so much for the sake of another? While both of them stayed all day chatting and passing out time, Mara and the others had long left the pack house. On orders of the alpha, Mara was not allowed to go up to the second floor where Sarah and Paris were. ‘’It is late, I should get going now,” Sarah tells Paris, gathering her things. Paris felt sad seeing her leave but there was just so little she could do. She had known from the very start, Sarah had to leave at some point. She dreaded the thought of her staying alone all by herself but there was nothing she could do. Sarah was only a servant and as such at some point, she had to retire to her quarters for proper rest… ‘’Will you be okay?’’ Sarah asked as she reached for the doorknob. Paris could only nod in approval. How could she tell Sarah she was not okay, she did not feel safe and her baby was restless. Sarah walked out of the main gate when a guard rushed to c
Beta Ben walked over to his bed, gesturing to Sarah to take a seat by his side. There was so much to be sorted out between the both of them and he planned on doing it on that same night. ‘’I want you, not just for my mate, but I must confess the mate bond is pulling even harder than I had expected. Sarah, I can promise you will be the only one for me and no one else. I know this is hard to believe but all I want is you. All I want is to be with my mate”’ every word beta Ben said, sank deep into the heart of Sarah. How could she keep on resisting when the both of them wanted the same thing? How can she deny not wanting him? It may not be as strong as he felt, but she was certain she wanted him, she needed him and she loved to be with him and him alone. ‘’What do you say? We give it a chance?’’ beta Ben asked, not trusting his words. He did not want to try out things with her. He wanted her but the fear of losing her was even greater than his desire to force anything on her. ‘’I wa
The sun peeped through the curtains, giving way to some light in the room. Sarah steered in her sleep so tired and reluctant to wake up. Her body felt so sore but she could feel the soft cloth against her skin. ‘’I was naked” She opens her eyes at the realization of reality. The room was familiar and it was not hers, it was not the room she shared with Mara neither was it the room kept separate in the pack house for maids ‘’This is Beta Ben’s room’’ Sarah thought out loud. It was the same as she had arranged the last time. She tried getting up but the soreness in between her legs and her back won't let her. She fell back on the bed hard. ‘’It is no dream, it happened”’ she tells herself as her hands grace through the mark on her neck. She stepped off the bed and only then did she notice she was well dressed and had been cleaned up and changed into a neat set of men's pajamas. One sniff and she knew just who it belonged to. A glance at the clock and Sarah was freaking out. She had
