Harlow's Pov“You really think you can fight us off with that?” Lucan the rouge said out loud while laughing.I gathered my stance… Come to think of it, I'm so weak or should I say I act weak.The fact that these rouges had mocked me different times irritated me.I know I'm strong and yes I have to be strong… Even if it's just for today, there is clearly no one here to help me apart from me.Lucan lurked towards me and I hit him on the head with my bone like weapon, thus making him bleed in the process.I don't know how I gathered that momentum but yeah…. I acted on impulse.“You dare hit me!!!” Lucan growled and staggered towards me.I wasn't able to escape, and he grabbed me by the neck while the other rogue punched my stomach.“Argh!!” I cried out in pain.Getting my resolve, I nibbled my lips tightly and sent forth my legs forward, therefore hitting Lucan in his groins.Suddenly, a rogue from nowhere sprang towards me, hitting me in the process.I lost balance and fell down, hitti
Harlow's PovAs we all walked back to the pack, the maze looked more and more easy to get back to the pack. How did I even get lost in the first place? As we got to the pack, Lucian maintained his distance, but the sober look on his face was to let me know that Marc was going to punish him altogether.That was the thing that had been slaves! You must be punished, no matter whose fault it actually was.Trust me, I've lived that kind of life.Marc was angry, but I don't know why!Well, we walked through the hallway as greetings accompanied us, but there was a tense atmosphere that Marc didn't fail to notice so he kept walking.I had to follow him because I didn't want any reprimand of any sort, I would only leave when he asks me to and too bad he didn't look like he would ask me to leave any time soon.Walking through the hallway, we got to the grand room where meetings were held and the elders were all seated.I hope this isn't some question and answer session.“Marc, thanks for brin
Blair's PovWhatever game Irene was playing, she needs to be dealt with because for all I know she wouldn't stop being stupid.“Where are you going?” I heard the voice of Rona ask.“What do you care about?” I said still walking.“I care because it seems no one is taking what is about to happen seriously, it's like everyone has forgotten about everything, and it's so annoying.” Rona explained, at least someone has a reasoning like me.“I would handle this myself because I'm truly the one not safe here so I'd have to do something to keep myself safe first, even if it means killing Irene off!, I'd kill her even before she thinks of killing me.” Rona just stared at me as I talked. “I'd not have a part in whatever you intend to do with Irene.” She stated, jerking a shoulder forward. “Whatever.” I rolled my eyes while walking away.“Harlow's change in attitude and everything keeps making me wonder if she's okay. I don't know If maybe she's pregnant because her appearance has changed a lot
Harlow's PovI got tired and felt like walking, and I stumbled to hear noises coming from Irene's room.I opened the door and peeked.I was very certain something fell from across the room, and she wasn't the one that pushed it down.So who would?“I said, who's in your room?" I asked again trying to peer into the room, but she kept shielding the door, blocking me from looking inside.“And who are you to ask?" Mindy asked and stepped outside, slamming the door abruptly.“Irene, there's—.” I tried saying that, but she cut me off.“I don't want to hear it, now, thanks for checking up on me. You can leave now.” She said, and surprise enveloped me.Well, I didn't have any say when it came to her life, so I just left as she requested with a heavy heart.What would she be hiding in her room?Somehow I wanted her room to be checked, so I diverted my destination to Damon's study.Getting there, I entered unannounced as usual, only to meet Alaric and Marc staring at different files furiously l
Marc's PovAfter assuring Harlow that I'd be fine, I walked with authority into the meeting hall, putting on my strong and stone-cold facade.Harlow, that little one!Somehow she had made me throw away my cold exterior whenever I'm with her and that was what bothered me the most about her.I would rather not pull down my walls for anyone anymore since I lost my first mate, but somehow, Jane always found a way to pull down those walls and get through.She was special in her, but she didn't even know it.Getting into the hall, I saw Jason at the far end, standing with his shoulders held high up, and a smug look plastered on his face.Then I knew what this whole meeting was all about, they were here to decide whether I would stay on the throne or not.Every so often I wondered why they even questioned my being on the throne, it was clear to everyone that I was best and fit for the position.But because I had lost my first child to the cold hands of miscarriage, I've never had rest. “Tha
Harlow's PovAfter the little fight I had with Marc, I left his room and entered into the pack's Village.Damn!Did I just hear that? Were they referring to me?I have to just believe they are not talking to me.“I heard she's just here to breed the Alpha's heir and take over the throne later on.” One whispered to her fellow, but it was loud enough for me to hear.Okay, now I'm certain they are talking about me.With misty and watery eyes, I gave Lucian a soft look and made her return to my room, but that was how Luna would react in this situation.“Hey! The both of you, come over here now. “ I ordered, and they obliged immediately, murmuring a few words before approaching me.“What did you say?” I questioned, trying my best to keep a defiant expression.I don't have to tear up now, Jane, you can do this!“Why do you care what we talk about?” One questioned, and the other tugged her apparel while whispering:“She's still Luna.” “She's not yet crowned, and besides she's not the first
Harlow's PovStrange things started happening in the pack house. People were just dying.“Arghh.” I yelped as my eyes laid sight on the lifeless body, and immediately Lucian came running out of nowhere towards my direction.“Luna, what's the problem?” He questioned when he was still halfway to get to me, so I just motioned for him to come over and take a look as I removed my eyes.When he got to me, he took one look at the corpse before removing his eyes and motioned for me to follow him, which I did immediately without complaining.“Who was that?” I said as we fell into pace side by side and he groaned before answering.“That was one of the guards, I need to report this Alpha Marc immediately. “ He stated, and I nodded as we both journeyed to look for Marc.We went to the grand hall, but they were no longer there so we didn't go to the next place he was most likely to be. Everyone was there.Irene, Alaric, Jade, Rona, and Blair.They look like they have seen a ghost.Getting to his o
Harlow's PovNobody expected to see such a horrific thing. I felt like my heart would jump into my stomach as shock enveloped my whole being.The said Alpha Aryan?Chopping off the eyes of a guard?That was the last thing anybody expected.As I screeched out of shock, he immediately threw his glance at us, while Alaric used his hands to cover my mouth as I shook violently.“Alpha Aryan, what sort of courageousness can this be classified as!!?” Marc barked, ready to pounce on Alpha Aryan at any time. The moment Marc made to move towards Alpha Aryan, I don't know what came over me, but I held him back immediately and I figured out Alpha Aryan was holding a dagger.Marc looked at me with questioning eyes and I uttered;" Don't go close to him Marc, he's dangerous now.”“What do I have to say to you, Marc? After accusing me of this uncultured and immature act, it turns out to be your brother.” Alpha Aryan said out of the blues.I wonder how he is even able to joke around when the energy am
