She scoffed. This wasn't solely her fault. Raymond lacked oversight too. He failed to notice that Alexis hadn't died."You only attacked her with wolfsbane" he said "You didn't confirm if she was dead. That was your careless mistake""And you're innocent? You didn't also confirm. I agree I was with her. I attacked her and she bled and stopped moving. What did you want me to think? That she was paralyzed instead of dead?" She fumed at him"Amber, that's it! That's what I'm referring to. You lack meticulosity""What do you mean? Aren't we in the same situation? You are not blameless because you made the same mistake I made" She argued."I didn't" he disagreed. "I only acted upon the impression you gave me. You made me think she was dead" Amber could attest to that. She panicked so much when Alexis stopped moving. Anyone who was with her would think that Alexis was dead. She was sure Alexis died at her hands. But it turned out that she didn't die after all.That girl who sat on Calvin'
Davina woke up early. In fact, she'd been waking up early since she arrived at this universe. She found it difficult to sleep soundly as she tried to get used to the new environment, but it didn't bother her much because she had always been a morning person.All she had to do was press a small button in her room if she wanted help from any of the omegas but she didn't press any button even if she needed help because she figured they'd still be sleeping by now.Not knowing what to do to busy herself on such an early morning, she covered herself with some clothes and quietly stepped out of her room. She was going to take a stroll round the environment. She hoped she wouldn't get lost because this domain or whatever was very large and she didn't know her way around yet.The day had just begun to break so she could see her way around, identify some people who had already woken up. They'd already started cleaning and some were trimming the grasses. They were very quiet about it and they bo
The omegas bathed her and dressed her up in preparation for her martial arts class with Maggie. Then she was led to the venue which was a lonely and quiet field.Maggie was a five feet tall lady who was a little ripped. She had a brown coloured hair which she plaited in two. She bowed slightly and made a brief introduction of herself. Twenty six years old and a guardian wolf. Apparently, a guardian to the omegas.She started teaching Davina the basics of martial arts before they progressed. She made Davina come at her while she defended herself, which was a total flop on Davina's part, for she couldn't even land a proper punch. At the end of the session, they had a little pep talk and it helped to lift Davina's spirit a bit.She practiced what she'd learnt alone in her room before she fell asleep before dinnertime.The next morning, she demanded the the class should begin before sunrise in order for her to achieve a lot. Maggie followed her instructions and they began. Davina learnt
Davina let out a startled gasp and jumped off of Dante's body.She had been so engrossed in her moment with Dante that she didn't realise that she was being watched by Calvin. The amount of guilt she felt right now was immeasurable. How could she be doing this? How did she get so carried away?She saw Calvin's deadpan expression and she coughed awkwardly. "Um... Calvin, I didn't realise..." She attempted to speak but her voice trailed off."You got so into it, didn't you?" Calvin asked as he watched his wide eyed mate. He didn't know why she felt so awkward. It felt as though she didn't want to get caught training with his beta. Too late, because he'd been watching them for a while now. He felt bad about not been able to see his mate for these past few days because he'd been so swamped with work; concerns of the pack, so when he got the report from his beta; Dante that he was going to train with his mate, he decided to wrap up his work, then go see how well his mate had learnt marti
Later that night, Davina couldn't sleep as she rolled continuously on her queen sized bed. After spending some time with Calvin, she had a light dinner and some omega wolves were dispatched to her room to prepare her for bed.But then she couldn't sleep because the pain she felt from her sprained ankle tripped overnight. She tried to force herself to sleep by having sweet and peaceful thoughts of Calvin but it was useless.Now she sat up and rested her back on the bed rest. Her ankle had swollen a bit and she bet it would get worse if she didn't do something about it now.She knew she just had to press a button in her room and they'd come running to her but she didn't want to yet because she felt bad to disrupt their sleep.Dinner had been concluded a long time ago and from the silence that fell, she knew that everyone would be deep asleep by now. Except her though.She too deserved sleep but her sprained ankle wasn't letting her have some. She decided to be quick. They'd just get an
Her eyes were covered with a blindfold as she was led by her boyfriend. As she followed him, she was conscious of the scent and heat emanating from the candles in the room."Where are we, Calvin?" She asked in a voice filled with jitters and anticipation. "You'll see" he said and left her to be"Calvin?" She called as she wasn't hearing any movement or sound from him."Yes, my darling... here you go" he said and gently removed the blindfold.An awed gasp escaped from her lips. She was right. Calvin had brought her to a scenting candlelit room. She was thrilled to see beautiful decorations laying around and she wondered why he went through all these for her. Before she could ask him why, he got down on a knee before her and brought out a small box. She gasped again."I can't imagine my life without you in it" he began. "Will you be my girlfriend, Amber Trafford?" Tears blurred her vision and she made to speak but before she could, she felt a sudden wave of chilling breeze on her skin
She felt soft and light strokes on her face and hair; whenever her mom tried to put her to sleep or whenever her mom braided her hair. She heard her mom's sonorous voice whenever she sat near a fire and it reminded her of the times when she and her sisters would sit around the fire to keep warm, while her mom told them tales of the purple rose pack and sang peaceful and soothing notes.Now she couldn't hear a thing. She couldn't feel a thing. Her mom's touch and her voice faded as the days went by and it drove her crazy. A void space occupied the greater part of her heart and she felt all the warmth leave her. She lived her life without a reason and in a little time, numbness became her coping mechanism.She was in her wolf form, during a hunt organised by her pack. Running through the woods and pouncing on any animal that wasn't her kind. Without inhibitions or mercy, she hunted. Until she caught sight of an injured man who was abandoned in the woods to bleed out. Her first instinct
They conversed as they walked through the large palace grounds. The sentinel wolves stood followed them closely but not close enough to hear what they were saying."So tell me Ray, what's your opinion on the matter?" Alpha Timothy of the bayero pack asked his close aide and beta, Raymond Sanchez."Honestly alpha, I just think you should follow your heart" replied Ray elusively. He knew exactly what he was playing at."Come on, Raymond. I want your own opinion. Not some vague suggestion" Timothy persisted"This is a sensitive topic, you know. We're talking about marriage. You have to find out if it's okay with Luna Bridgette"Raymond said, still beating around the bush. He was waiting for Timothy to take the bait before he struck. Right now, he just pretended to have his alpha's best interests at heart so after Timothy bought all his fake empathy, he'd then hit the nail on the head. Alpha Timothy had been offered two marriage proposals. More of an alliance between the packs, under the
