Alexander picked up his phone to call his mother, and to tell her about the latest update. "What did you say?" Grace asked, sounding so shocked. "A book about shape-shifters? I have never heard of it." She said."Me neither. I never thought there would be such a book," Alexander replied."You need to get your hands on that book, and you need to do it fast Alex. If that book truly exists, then all of us are doomed." Grace suggested. "How did they come across that book in the first place? If Maxmillian had such a book, we would have known. Don't you think?" Grace said."I was told that Maxmillian's sister came around," Alexander added."Who?" Grace questioned curiously."Her name is Aleah.""Aleah? I have never heard of such name before," Grace said."Well, according to my source, he said she happens to be Maxmillian's elder sister. I think she was the one who killed Isla. She might be a dangerous mom," Alexander said."This is getting serious. Do you want me to come over? I can send m
After Aleah had instructed Maxmillian, she left. A few hours later, Maxmillian took the bane and went to meet Alexander.Alexander was restless, panicking in his room. Melissa was there with him, cuddling and patting his back, trying to make him calm down, and put him to rest. They had just finished making out. "Can you please leave?" Alexander said to Melissa."No." Melissa replied confidently, walking back to sit on the bed. " I am going nowhere." She replied, crossing her legs and relaxing comfortably. Maxmillian stared at her angrily."I heard your mother is sending you more guards tonight. I am certain she will send a lot of she-wolfs too," Melissa said."And so?" Alexander asked, turning back to Melissa.Melissa stood up from the bed, she walked seductively to where Alexander stood, loosened his robes and began touching his body. "I won't let anyone of them come close to you Alexander." She whispered softly in Alexander's ear.Alexander shoved her hands off him and tied his ro
That same night, immediately Maxmillian left, Alexander threw a thunderous rage. He had never felt so insecure before. The anger he let out was furious, that no one, not even Melissa, who was still with him, was able to control him.Out of fear, Melissa ran out of Alexander's room, but became even more scared as she saw dead soldiers everywhere outside the room.Alexander picked up his phone and called Grace. He narrated everything that happened to her. Grace became more angry."How could you let this happen?" Grace yelled through the phone."I'm sorry mum. I never for once thought that Maxmillian knight would have the guts to do this. He is an Alpha, why would he kill his own kind?" Alexander cried out."He's kind that are not in support of him, he will definitely kill those who are against him." Grace responded. "This is not good son, I am really disappointed in you? How do you expect us to start all over again? You know how many years it cost us to build and train those shape-shift
Ever since Maxmillian left Alexander's house he has not had rest or peace of mind. He feels he had just started a war with his son. The next morning, Maxmillian refused to go to work. Given the excuse of trying to finish the book, Aleah had asked him to study. He was on the bed, still in his robe with the book of Shape-shifters in his hands. "And that is supposed to be an excuse?" Amelia asked, staring at him as she slowly prepared for work."Don't you think you should stay at home for some time? We have managers, they can handle our company. I had just declared war with Alexander. It is not going to sit well for him. They may be up to something mischievous as we speak." Maxmillian concluded."I am not spending one more day in this house with you, without going to work. I don't want to believe you are scared of your son," Amelia said."I am not." Maxmillian replied, "as you can see, I am still trying to control my wolf...""From one excuse to another, from declaring war to starting
As soon as Jeremy left Maxmillian's room, he knew going back to Alexander was a death sentence, but then again, he had no choice. As soon as he got to Alexander's house, he began shivering, so much so that even Alexander could sense the uneasiness coming from him."Where is the book I asked you to get for me?" Alexander asked. His voice was cold, echoing through the living room, sending more shivers down Jeremy's spine. "I'm sorry, sir. Please forgive me," Jeremy fell to his knees, sobbing for mercy. "I was able to lay my hands on the book, but Mr. Maxmillian scared me away. He claimed to be the Alpha...""I am your Alpha!!!" Alexander roared loudly. "What a waste," he said. "I made you a shape-shifter, just like me. You should be able to fight back. You were to fight him for that book, even if it were to be your last breath, and you went and chickened out? How embarrassing. Do you realize that whatever is in the book can end all our lives, including yours, in the space of seconds? I
At approximately 7:30 p.m. that evening, Maximilian Knight and Amelia were on a dinner date at one of the most expensive restaurants in the city. They booked a VIP room to enjoy some quiet time alone, as it had been a while."Do you like it here?" Maximilian asked softly."Yeah, it's a new restaurant, isn't it?" Amelia replied, unable to meet Maximilian's gaze due to her shyness.The expression on Maximilian's face radiated joy as he admired Amelia's beauty and continuously complimented her."You are so beautiful," Maximilian said."Thank you," Amelia replied uncomfortably.Their date was going well as the couple reminisced and laughed about old times, sharing stories of how they fell in love with each other.Suddenly, Maximilian's phone rang. It was an unknown number. He picked up the call. "Hello, who is this?""Your son has been kidnapped, sir," Jeremy cried out from the other end of the phone."What?" Maximilian jumped out of his chair, looking furious."What is it?" Amelia asked,
Maximilian Knight walked fearlessly into the room where Alexander was. He saw Amelia tied to a chair and immediately lost it."Have you gone nuts? How dare you, Alexander? Untie her this minute," Maximilian commanded in a very angry tone."Of course, I will do that. But not until I get what I want," Alexander stated.Maximilian looked around but could not find Jason."Where is my son? Where is Jason? Bring him out immediately," he roared loudly, almost losing it, and shifting."Oh, shut it, old man. Stop ranting," Alexander rebuked. "You came to my house and killed all of my soldiers. What were you thinking? That I was going to let it slide? I am not a weakling like you, Mr. Maximilian Knight.""Take whatever you want. You can take me instead. Just let my wife and son go. Keep them out of this. They have done absolutely nothing wrong to you," Maximilian said. "If you hurt them or lay one finger on them, I might just end up losing it on you," Maximilian warned, moving closer to Alexand
That same night, Maxmillian Knight walked home feeling disappointed in himself. He was unable to get back his wife and son. He couldn't just hand over the shape-shifter's book to Alexander. He would use it to destroy their entire existence. He also couldn’t think of how he would tell Aleah to surrender herself to Grace and Alexander in exchange for another, nor did he know where Aleah was.Maxmillian Knight looked devastatingly worried. He paced every single part of his bedroom, pondering a way out. But every one of his thoughts was to no avail. He began imagining things, like what Alexander would do to Amelia."What if he tries to talk her out of the love she has for me?" he soliloquized. He couldn't bear the thought of anything harming his family, so he picked up a jacket and went in search of Amelia in the woods.At about 1:00 a.m., Maxmillian Knight was still in the woods searching for his sister. He probably needed her advice on what to do to get his family back. When it seemed l
