INSIDE THE ENEMIES MINDLITA'S POVKiel suddenly began to tell me a story "Years ago, the Siracusa pack was under siege. Our rivals also know as the Elisiva pack, attacked us continually without fear or mercy"I coughed, clearing my throat then i continued from where he stopped. Our anxious eyes, piercing each other." It was believed that our forefather, Siracusa, the eldest of the Siracusa brothers, was the strongest among them.He was a fierce and proud warrior, and his enemies feared him greatly. But even Siracusa was not immune to the Elisiva's wrath." I spoke "One day, Siracusa became so ill that everyone thought it was a strange sickness. Some thought it was a curse while other thought it was a plague that had swept through the land, killing many in its wake. Siracusa's enemies rejoiced, believing that their hated rival was finally defeated. Regardless, Siracusa was not one to give up easily. He fought the illness with all his might, and to everyone's amazement, he survived
DAPHNE'S POV"We are gathered here today because of something I never imagined would happen to me" Alpha Ares's echoed into the cold air.I turned to look at Amelia for her to tell me what was going on but all she did was remain reticent to my curiosity.He said " Something so dare to me is missing. I don't know where it is at the moment but I just want to believe that it wasn't stolen; therefore I urge you members of this great Siracusa pack to search and find it before dawn."I was still confused regarding what he had just announced. Looking at everyone's face there were no traces of confusion and all of them seem to understand his vague statement.The silence amongst us was the loud noise in the room."Ares, I'm sorry. Am I missing something?" I asked in a low tone. He doesn't say a word to me instead he stand up and leaves the sitting room immediately.This made the hair on my skin to stand because I was so frightened."Follow me" whispered Amelia who stood by my side.While the
KEIL'S POVWe all sat outside in silence, waiting for Ares to speak to us. He stood before us glaring, as anger mixed with fear stirred within him." I made an announcement earlier- I am now fully aware that the reason behind the situation I am in right now isn't as a result of my carelessness rather my necklace was stolen from me," he said, shifting his eyes from one face to another.As he made his statement about the necklace, most of the pack members began to murmur. Their voices were as loud as that of a swarm of bees." we are doomed!" bellowed an omega. "Who is this Traitor?" another asked.Their faces brooded while they spoke angrily. I could understand their fear.They all spoke with loud and angry voices but I didn't say a word to any of them instead I spoke to Ares, who stood close to me." Have you checked your chamber? perhaps it might have fallen off while you were asleep or having a bath" I suggested with evil intentions."I have checked everywhere Keil, the least you s
DAPHNE’S POV“Uhh, yes, don’t stop,” I heard different moans coming from the barn of the pack. I wanted to walk away but I couldn’t. The voice of the lady sounded so much like Luna Cecilia’s voice.I needed to make sure I was wrong, or else I would always carry this thought in my head. I walked closer to the door of the barn, then I slightly opened it.Lo and behold, I saw Luna Cecilia having sex with Alpha Darius, the junior brother to her mated husband, the alpha king.I couldn’t believe my eyes, the Luna queen was cheating on the alpha King with his brother.I was supposed to mind my business and walk away but the morals I learned from my late mother didn’t let me.Without giving it a second thought, I rushed into the room and interrupted whatever was going on in there.“I will exposé the two of you to the alpha king,” I announced, not realizing that I was making a very big mistake. They immediately put on their clothes.“How dare you?” She quizzed in a fit of rage and immediately
Daphne’s POV"Over my dead body!" I muttered but to his hearing in my defiance, I kicked my feet against the hard ground. I knew men could be so vile and irresponsible when it came to the body of a woman, but this was the most lewd thing a man had ever told me. I found myself revolted and I spat on the ground beside his feet."We shall see about that!" Darius retorted and began to move towards me with an evil look on his face, but I immediately got on my feet and took to my heels.So much for trying to stand for something that seemed right. I ran away from the pack square, in the direction of the woods. I didn't even bother to take any of my belongings because I wanted to be gone from there as soon as possible.As I ran, my mind replayed Darius's threat over and over again. He had wanted to take advantage of my body. And even considering that I was against that, he still didn't care. Because of his status as Alpha. I couldn't believe that he was capable of such a thing. Well, I never
Daphne’s POV"Did you disqualify Lita, beta?" Another voice came from the entrance. The voice sounded so pleasant to the ears.We all turned at the voice. There stood a tall man who was dressed in the garb of an Alpha King. He looked so godly, with a perfect chin and the eyes of a sea god. His hair was in long dreads and that matched his heavenly appearance. I couldn’t believe that I was so invested in his looks that I didn’t notice he was with her on his left.Yes, beside him stood a disgruntled Lita. The girls fell more silent than they had been and went on one knee to greet him. I was smart enough to do the same.His beta bowed. "Yes, Your Highness. Lita was being rather possessive and rude to one of your maidens. She tried to take advantage of the young girl. I did not want such happening."The Alpha King looked back at Lita. "You were wrong. You have to skip today’s participation, go home, and learn,” he cautioned with so much gentleness.After she left, he walked to the side o
DAPHNE’S POVI followed Amelia into a small, dark room. The room wasn’t well furnished. I could feel her eyes on me, assessing my every movement. I tried to remain calm, but Amelia's gaze made me feel like a caged animal.So I confidently met her gaze and inquired why she stared at me in that manner."Do you question me now?"I complained about the way she looked at me because it made me feel very uncomfortable.Amelia chuckled. "You have no idea what it means to feel uncomfortable, chosen one.""Chosen one? Why do you call me that?""Because the king has chosen you.""Look, do you think I wanted this? To be here? No, I do not want to be here. And I do know what it means to feel uncomfortable."The head maid said nothing, but her expression softened a bit. "You are afraid," she said finally. "That is understandable. I was afraid when I was brought here, I did not know what would become of me at the time but you must understand that you have no choice. The Alpha king has chosen you, an
ALPHA ARES'S AURADaphne's pov My heart leaped into my throat and I could hear my thoughts screaming different words to me. It was as though I was in a room filled with a lot of people who were all shouting at the same time.I was at the verge of running at impulse but fear paralyzed me, the dread of being killed in a rival pack twisted in my gut. I knew there was nothing I could do at that point, I just had to say my last prayers."Daphne!" Amelia called but it sounded like a thought so I didn't reply. My eyes, still fixed at nothing."Daphne!" She clamored with a voice loud enough to cause the walls to crack.Amelia's third bellow startled me out of my reverie and immediately all my eyes were fixed on hers. She placed her cold hands on my sinking shoulders and signs heavily, her breath brushing the back of my left ear." You need to calm down, nobody heard us," Amelia assured.I questioned immediately " what if someone heard us."A broad smile on her face, threatening to break i
