For the first time since she stepped into the room, Audrey had the bravery to finally look up at Hercules and all she saw was red. "Don't you dare look me in the eyes!" He barked and Audrey dropped her head down immediately.Hercules was angry over the fact that he couldn't control his emotions around Audrey and the intention he had at first was to punish her and it appears he couldn't at the moment. "Listen to me carefully girl!" Hercules grabbed her by the neck and this time Audrey knew he was really angry. "The next time you dare disrespect anyone in this mansion or my guest, you will pray to the moon goddess to take your life. Now get out of my sight!" When he released his grip off Audrey, she felt her neck was on fire.Once Audrey was out of sight, Hercules calmed his nerve and despite the conflict he was having with his wolf for placing his hands roughly on their mate, Hercules believed she deserved to be thought a lesson.Audrey was filled with tears as she stepped into May's
Audrey had been informed by May to go get a couple of groceries from the market, a large place in Airpack, known for trading commodities. The moment she stepped foot into the place, there were several seas of heads and for Audrey, she was a little bit claustrophobic. No familiar face could be seen in the market. However, the moment she placed her basket down on one of the counters to obtain the groceries, she noticed someone on the hood that had been stalking her. Audrey was quite suspicious of the stare, which he failed to remove despite knowing she had caught the man."Here are what you ordered for ma'am." She heard the voice of the pack member say, as she was handed over the basket. The moment she took the basket, Audrey turned around and noticed the man running away and for some odd reason, she had the urge to chase after him. Audrey followed the man, after dropping back the basket, she was curious to know why the stranger had been giving her an intense look.Audrey followed the m
The moment they both arrived at the chambers, Alpha Hercules was pacing about in his throne room in deep thought. From his peripheral vision, he sighted two people and when he turned to look, it was his sister and also his mate."I called for you May. I never ask to bring your maid." Audrey was hurt for being placed in the position of a maid, by her mate. The least she expected was a little bit of honor. The Alpha hadn't rejected her, but saw it fit that she serve as a maid in the palace."She is my maid and I have the right to do anything I want with her. Precise...." May stepped a little bit forward. "...She is your mate." She said,"You would not bring such frivolities to my sight again!" Hercules retorted with so much rage. He looked at Audrey and all he could feel for her was irritation."Why have you called me?" May asked."A scene happened at the market today. Apparently, a young man was horrifically killed by a mysterious creature. Many believe this creature would come back fo
Standing before Audrey was the same stranger that had been killed barely a few hours ago. "He was dead when I checked him. His heart was plucked out, coupled with his eye socket." Audrey explained, as Hercules stared down at her. Even May was slowly beginning to doubt what Audrey had revealed to her."I guess you were looking for attention?" Audrey was hurt by Hercules' assumption. Even May had a slight look of disappointment on her face. "Get out of my sight" Hercules declared and slowly and painfully, Audrey crawled her way out of the hallway. She took a slight look at the stranger, whose eyes were on her as well.This was totally impossible! Audrey proclaimed to herself as she stepped into the chamber. She could have sworn that she had seen a creature kill the stranger. The only situation was she didn't know how he was alive.Audrey was sure she was not hallucinating.The door opened minutes later and May stepped in as well. She closed the door behind her and sighed, staring at Aud
May opened her eyes and the horrors they came in contact with, was beyond expression of words. Fire burning down the pack houses and particularly the mansion. She was seeing people dying and what was worse, is that she couldn't see the enemy. All May could see was pain and agony."Wake up May!" Audrey tapped, seeing her struggling in her sleep. When May woke up, she cleaned a drop of tear that had made its way down to her cheeks. "You had a vision again?" Audrey speculated, after making sure she was fully comfortable."I don't know Audrey! It keeps hunting me; a vision of people in Agony. I can't seem to understand it." Audrey stayed silent for a moment, thinking through what May had said. For some odd reason, she tried to connect her vision to the strange phenomenon, wondering how they connected."I have something for you." Audrey pulled out the black handkerchief, and waved it right in front of May, who seemed uninterested. "This is Benard's black handkerchief. I found it at the spo
When Audrey got loose from the ropes, she favored her hands for a minute, observing how bruised they had become. "I noticed a long list of ancient texts and I would like to have one of the books to read."Audrey revealed."We don't give out books in this place. They are sacred books and we keep them safe."Martin replied. Audrey walked directly to him, staring him in the eyes."I guess your secret isn't safe with me then."She had a cheesy smile on her face and this made Martin really angry."Are you trying to black mail me?"Martin asked; a question that forced Audrey to laugh for a moment."This is no blackmail Beta Martin, this is just the plain truth. You give me what I want and I speak not of your group to any soul."Audrey could see from his eyes how conflicted he looked. It was a hard choice to make, but Martin knew that Audrey speaking of the group would spawn as a threat to the Alpha and he may be coerced to eliminate them all."Very well then. You can pick whichever you want."Se
Audrey stared at May in disbelief. Just when she had high hopes that she would be termed a liar, even though she has always loved to be proven right, May's revelation shows things are getting darker in the pack. "Let's go check it out."May suggested that Audrey get out of the bed alongside May and they both head outside the chambers. On getting to the scene, which was barely outside the mansion, people had already gathered. Martin made sure no one came close to the dead bodies as they were horrific sights to behold. When Audrey laid eyes on the two dead bodies; one belonging to Benard and the other belonging to a pack member, she was fully satisfied that this was the act of the wyvern she read about."Pave way for the Alpha."Alexandros announced and Hercules stepped into the scene. Apparently, he had been informed by his gamma about the incident and he halted the meeting with Alpha Brandon.Upon seeing the dead corpse, Hercules was bewildered, especially seeing Benard as part of the
When Audrey arrived at the chamber, it was quiet that only the steps of her feet made noise. The evening time around Airpack was cool and it made the chamber a little extra cold as well. Audrey looked up and Hercules' eyes bore holes into her own. Audrey took a little step forward, before halting and bowing to the Alpha."Sometime ago, you came up with a supposed conspiracy. Everyone took it with a grain of salt because we all thought you were lying. However, with the incident that happened today, I have to fully believe there is truth in your story. So....."Hercules stood from the throne and walked down the little steps. "...Narrate the story once again." Audrey was fidgeting. Considering the fact that she had gathered new evidence, if Hercules gets to find out about the whole situation, without valid evidence, she could still be accused of lying."I got to the market that fateful day, and all I ever wanted was to do the bidding of your sister. While exchanging price offers on a cer
