Samantha’s POV
I woke up very early. This place looks so good, but strange. Sleeping with my two eyes closed was scary. The nonstop growlings at night and weird cries emanating from the room upstairs, everything was just crazy. Not to think I was calling Cervantes the crazy one.
What Cervantes did last night was crazy though. He interrupted every discussion I had with Herveaux last night.
”How do I live up to the lies you have made me tell the Alpha?” I asked Cervnates. “Why are you silent? This is just the beginning as I see it!” I added anxiously. It was unlike Cervantes to not reply to my questions on time.
“I can not feel his presence too”. I was a bit worried and perplexed.
“Our Beloved Alpha request your presence “ Someone said outside my door. “Why can't they knock and come in?”.
“Our Beloved Alpha request your presence!” The voice repeated louder. “I have heard. I need to change my dress and put some make-up on at least”, I had to reply.
“You have to come out now. You do not keep the Alpha waiting.” Now they were getting on my nerves. I look like shit. My hair was undone and the clothes I wore were so revealing. I was in my underwear.
A lady suddenly appeared inside my room. “Arrrrrgh……………..” I screamed out my lungs. She stared at me unmoved by my screams. “We have to go now!” She held my hands and dragged me like some criminal.
“You should at least let me cover my body. This is demeaning!” I muttered as she kept dragging me to their beloved Alpha. The name sounded so funny to me”.
“Kneeel!” She commanded. I feel to my knees. “Face down. How dare you look the Alpha in the face!?” She thundered.
“I did look at his face last night. A shocker? We even kissed”, I said to myself, even though I wanted to shout it loudly at her.
“You may rise!” A coarse, sexy but deep voice said to us. I thought he was referring to me. But the woman smacked my legs, making me fall back to my knees as I tried getting up.
“You are late! And you know the punishment for that, don’t you?” Alpha herveaux questioned the woman.
I was tempted to lift my head up even though not obvious, but I wanted to see him. Alpha herveux mysteriously twisted his head to the left slowly and it somehow swept the woman off her feet. It felt like magic but the strange thing was that I felt it too. I bowed my head to the floor immediately.
The woman was bleeding. He smacked her really hard on the wall, by just sitting and tilting his head. “He is so powerful” I said to myself, still shaking with fear.
“Leave this moment!” He said, still in a low tone, as if he did not just trying to kill the woman.
The woman struggled to leave his presence. Crawling slowly on the floor as she moved with her blood staining the ground.
“I thought she was strong when he appeared in my room like Cervantes always does?” I asked myself. “She is strong. The Alpha’s power is unmatched.” Cervantes freaked me out of the blue. “I left you for just a night and you said in trouble!” He said to me harshly.
“You! Move forward!” He commanded sternly but still kept a low tone. My legs were shaking and I couldn’t move fast. “Will he smash me on the wall also?” I asked Cervantes but he didn’t respond.
“This is the wrong time to leave me, you sly!”
“Why did you scream and pass out last night?” Alpha herveaux said to me. His facial expression didn’t seem angry, but he was able to almost kill a woman in my presence. “Ignore his face, he is angry”, I said to myself.
“NO, I'm not angry. I just love discipline and orderliness”. He responded to my thoughts.
“Geez, that’s crazy. I had forgotten! I haven't stopped thinking for a while”. He smiled like he could still hear me.
“My daughter might be late for school because of you! The only reason you are in my mansion is because of Tala. I have no use for you!”
“So arrogant! So much for someone who kissed me last night!” I hissed quietly.
Moving as far away from him as I could. “That’s better. Always keep your distance from me. Only The Beta stays close!” He said to me.
All through I noticed he didn’t even look at me. His eyes were fixed on a picture on the wall.
Alpha Herveaux stood up from his seat. It was a golden slated chair so big and attractive. “I wouldn’t mind sitting on it someday”, I teased myself.
“What do you find funny?” He asked me. “I'm sorry I was carried away.” I apologized immediately.
“You are dirty, lazy, stupid and uninteresting!” “ Tala is upstairs. Go take care of her. First go and clean up! What you did last night was unforgivable. You will be dealt with later!”
My heart raced really fast. “I did nothing wrong last night? I screamed because I was scared?” I said to myself.
“Show Auriel to Tala’s Room!” He said to one of the maids that enetered to clean the blood stain on the floor. She came in with the cleaning materials.
“Come with me” she said with a smile. She was the first to smile at me today.
We climbed the stairs to the second floor. “That’s it, the one on the right.” She pointed it to me. “Are you coming with me?” I asked her. She only smiled and left.
“Why is she scared? Tala is an innocent little girl”, I concluded to myself.
“Hello, Tala, it's Auriel!” I said, pressing the doorbell. “Leave. I don’t want to go to school!” She shouted back at me.
“Its okay with me. But you have to take your bath and change your dress”, I replied to her calmly and with love in a low, convincing tone. It worked. She opened the door.
Tala had her father’s eyes yellow and daring. “My love, Have you been crying?” I bent down to pick her up in my arms. “No, I'm just sad”, She replied. “Do you really think father wont force me to school?” She asked me. “That’s hard but I will try my best” I assured the little gilr. “You haven’t bath also. Are you dirty?” the little gilr asked rudely. “Your stupid, arrogant father made me come to you this way.” I wanted to spill to Tala but then I refrained myself. “I was waiting for you!” I lied with a broad smile on my face.
“I know the perfect place for us to take our bath” She happily held my hands and made me follow her down the stairs and outside the mansion. The edifice was beautiful and full of floral designs. “This is definitely not that arrogant man’s doing” I said to myself.
“Turn on the pool!” Tala shouted aggressively at the guard that stayed there. She wasn’t even scared of his physique. “He is huge damn! Built like a hulk!”
He turned on the water. The place looked so beautiful. Within seconds, the bath was full with water and a curtain was raised for us. The flowers smelt so good.. “Opps, we forgot our towels” Tala said, laughing innocently. Her smile was genuine.
“My mother and I always forgot it also. Now we have to make father bring it!” She said, splashing the water around. “What! Call that man here? No please!” I said to myself. “Father is so damn busy. I will go and get it myself.” I said to her.
I hadn’t gotten really wet, I was in my petticoat underwear. I hurried back inside to get Tala’s towel. My attention was diverted. I heard a woman’s voice in Alpha Herveux’s room. I don't know how, but I found myself not only eavesdropping but peeping through the keyhole.
It was a woman! I was right. She placed her hands on his neck, sitting on his lap while he still sat on the golden chair. She kissed him so deeply. “Could she be his lover?” I felt a sharp pain in my heart. I still couldn’t move. I felt he was cheating on me. “He made her sit facing him. He kissed her also. I could feel my heart ache harder and beat faster. I was very angry.
“Who is there!” He thundered and I froze.
Daciana’s POV.I went in to see Herveaux after a long time. “I believe I have respected Ashina enough!” He wasn’t in a good mood. Even if the world sees that emotionless face. I Dacaiana, knows Herveaux the best. “Don’t you miss me?” I said to him as he sat on his golden chair. He wasn’t expecting to see me. I fell into his arms, deliberately kissing him out of the blue. He wanted it also. “Dacaiana, you shouldn’t be here” he said to me, still not pushing me away. I wasn’t offended, he just accepted my kiss. “How long, Herveaux?” I said to him angrily. “Watch your tone lady. I’m still the Alpha here” he responded. “And I am your Luna to be!” I replied him. “You should respect me Dacaiana” He moved closer to me, making me kiss him intensely. “The Herveaux I know never loved a weak woman. Disrespect from a strong woman turns him on!” I said seductively. It was going all as planned until someone interrupted. I felt like ripping the life off the person. “Who Is there?” Alpha herve
Samantha’s POVAlpha Herveaux's wife just died recently and he is already with another woman. He is a womanizer. That’s why he kissed me on our first meeting. I feel so stupid for pitying him. That woman just tried to kill me. At least he saved my life. But who could she be? I tried making Tala leave the pool but she begged for a few minutes more until we ended up staying for an hour or even more. I was deep in thoughts though. I heard footsteps approaching. “Its father and mother’s friend”, Tala said, still playing in the water.He questioned me for keeping his daughter out there. I was mad at him. But Tala made him leave us alone somehow. Something strange happened between me and Dacaian as she tried removing my necklace, a strange force blew her away from me. I just couldn’t explain it. A man came saying my uncle was here for me. “Cervantes puts me in trouble but he’s here to save me on time.”I do have a problem with this woman insisting on following me to see my uncle. I too
Alpha Herveaux’s POV.“Do you want to change your mind, Alpha Herveux?” Fernando asked me. I wasn’t changing a thing. I was sure of that scent. It wasn’t that man. That man was just a mere distraction to stop me from following that strong scent I heard. “We will go ahead with our plans” I said to Fernando. I wanted to meet with a strong sorcerer. He was once an elder in the Sun Valley pack. He left angrily after an undisclosed dispute between he and his people. “Do you know how we can find him?” I asked Fernando. “Yes, Alpha, I just feel you should let Luna Rudina know about it”. He responded. I am free to do things on my own and she might misinterprete me also. “Why don’t we wait for the prophecy Alpha Herveuax?” Fernando asked. I knew he cared about my status, but now, my reputation is at stake. “I have to prove everyone wrong that my father was wrong about making me the Alpha”, I said to Fernando angrily. “We are here, Alpha” Fernando said, he stopped the car at a dead point w
Samantha’s POV.I had a very long day. Daciana was no help either. She stalked me like a hawk with the help of Sheila. “Leave Everyone!The Alpha has returned!” I saw everyone hiding or going into a room and closing the door. I wanted to watch and see what was happening. “He’s so handsome”, Sheila said. I didn’t notice she had followed me to where I hid so I could see Alpha Herveux. “Hi, I’m Sheila” She stretched her hands to me for an obvious handshake. “I know who you are, stop stalking me!” I accepted her handshake warmly with a disgusting facial appearance, that should let her know I didn’t want her around me. She rolled her eyes at me and closed the door. I forgot I was hiding. I stepped out through the other side just to bump into Alpha Herveuax. I was so scared. “I am sorry. It wasn’t intentional” Fernando saw me. “I know you from somewhere”, he said to me. My heart was racing, “Please don’t tell him, I am a slave”, I begged him in my head. “Yes, she's the same woman from th
THE SHADOW FORGE CLAN.Alpha Draglun’s POV.“You are no match for Alpha Herveaux” Lowell, the youngest Alpha and the leader of the, winter moon pack, said to me. I had invited him to help me fight Herveaux. Or overthrow him as the supreme leader of the whole Pack. “Is it because of your woman?” Lowell asked, chuckling as he spoke. “Get Over Daciana. Alpha Herveux has her rounded in between his palms. She rubs it on your face whenever she gets the chance”. Lowell was right. Dacaiana rejected me as her mate. She was destined to be mine, I just know it. Unlike every other person, I was free to choose my mate. All my friends envied me for that, but destiny had other plans. The only woman I and my wolf ever loved wasn’t in love with me. “Why does it have to be Alpha Herveaux? WHY!” I shouted, throwing the cup of wine on the wall. “Get over your obsession with that woman. You can invite when you want to take on Alpha Herveaux like a real Lycan and not because of a mere woman!” “I am n
THE SUN VALLEY PACK.Luna Rudina’s POV.I felt really good today. The atmosphere was conducive too. I am looking forward to the Moon goddess visitation. A new prophecy might just turn everything around for good.I walked in the garden, observing the growth of the flowers. Ashina grew them for me, adding to it, every year on my birthday. “I miss you Ashina.” I said, sniffing deep into the flowers. “Your daughter is here, Luna!” I felt butterflies in my tommy. I wasn’t expecting anyone today, not even her. She hasn’t been home in years. “To what do I owe this visit? You haven’t stepped your feet in here since you fought against our clan.” “I still see you as my aunt. I just felt bad you chose to side with Ashina, over me!” Dacaiana was very promising before she clocked eighteen few years ago. I still remember that night till today. The night, Alpha Herveaux’s Luna was chosen. It brought us joy and great sadness. “Do you know Auriel?” She asked me. “Is that why you are here?. I thou
Samantha’s POVWhen the so-called prime left, after asking me a question I couldn’t answer or dared not answer, I was so relieved. “Who’s side are you on?”What does she expect me to say? Hers or Alpha Herveaux? “ None of you!”. I am here for something else and I will face that squarely. This house was haunted. I have never heard a full time rest or sleep since I came in here. “Get ready, Our Beloved Alpha needs your presence at this moment!” My heart skipped, I could feel it come to my mouth. “What!” “You heard me, come this moment! The Alpha doesn't Wait!” Such arrogance, just like his subjects. I wondered why he wanted me. I just left his place by a narrow escape and now this?I walked briskly and very fast to the front of the door, just for me to open the door and then my hands weren’t cooperating with me, I suddenly felt that fear again. “Come In!” He thundered from inside. “How did he see me through the door? I hate whatever he is!” I clutched the door open. “Wear this fast
Alpha Herveaux. POV.Everything was going as planned until Fernando told me about that impromptu meeting. Daciana had left the mansion without telling me. I had to go with another woman. I felt Auriel would fit in as she was neutral to everyone in there. “What would you do when you saw him?” Fernando asked as we drove off to the meeting.“I would try my best to keep my cool”, I replied him briefly. I knew it was very impossible.It was followed by total silence until we arrived. I could see Auriel was uncomfortable, she found it hard keeping up with me, it was the same when I watched her undress, she had to get used to it. Bringing her in front of these people means a lot of responsibility for her. She seemed so clueless. Where all these season ispast I would look up on her background.I saw Derrick. Its been years. I don’t hate my brother but destiy had us fated against each other. I had to push him off as he was about to seat on my throne.I ended up challenging him. I could have a
