At first, it shocked me to realize that they would ever think that I would challenge Julian, I had been with them for as long as I have been living and they just simply turned their backs on me just because of a newbie. I shake my head convincing myself that it was pure instinct to protect their Alpha.
I wait for my mate knowing fully well that he also recognizes me. What shocked me was that he went straight towards Hailey and smacked his lips on hers. Right in front of me, right in front of the whole pack members! Was he trying to humiliate me? Was he trying to insult me by doing this? I was confused, angry, and jealous at the same time. Why would my mate kiss someone right in front of me? I moved towards him, ripping him apart from Hailey whose whole body was flushed red from embarrassment. ‘What are you doing?’ I asked through the mind link since he had already been connected to the pack. ‘I’m your worst nightmare.’ He said to me a smirk on his face. 'Everyone… meet my mate and the future Luna of the river pack.’ He announced and I growled venomously at him. He would have to man up into rejecting me if he wanted to make her Luna. ‘Myla, do you have any problem with me or my mate?’ he smirked at me with venom in his eyes before holding her securely around her waist. I clenched my fist in anger, he was no son of my father, he was a bastard, and my father’s son would never be a stupid cowardly man like him. I lunged at him in full speed successfully pouching him in the face multiple times before being ripped off by the park members. ‘You bastard, you are no son of my father.’ I spat venomously at him. ‘I’ll destroy you mate.’ He mind linked me a vicious smirk on his face. ‘It seems that my adoptive sister does not like me.’ He says to the pack members. ‘I will not punish you for attacking me today considering the fact that my parent raised you but I shall not allow any disrespect toward my authority.' He took slow strides towards me, his Alpha aura oozing out of him forcing everyone to their knees, yet I didn't even break a sweat. I smirked at him, I was stronger than him, even his Alpha aura was pathetic. ‘Bow down to your Alpha.’ He commanded me. ‘You are not my Alpha and you would never be so go back to the junk you came from you bastard.‘ I growled. 'Jake! Blake! Grab her.’ He barked. I looked in the direction of where both of my most so-called loyal friends as they walked towards me. They had accepted this bastard as their Alpha and mindlessly followed his orders like puppets. I growled at them, forcing them to bare their neck at me in submission. ‘I Myla-Rose Halls challenge you for the position of Alpha of the silver moon pack.’ The duel began and I was already winning, ‘You are no Alpha.’ I growled at him punching him in the stomach. ‘An Alpha is not weak, an Alpha is not pathetic as you are. An Alpha is supposed to be strong, an Alpha is supposed to protect his people, with your strength you will never be able to protect the pack members let alone yourself.’ I said grabbing his face and punching him. He was already covered in blood and sweat. ‘Look at him.’ I yelled at the pack members. ‘All you needed was a piece of paper and you believe that his the Alpha's late son? The late Alpha and Luna taught us to be righteous and true to our pack members yet all you needed was a mere piece of paper and you all turned your backs on me. My father would be disappointed in your behavior if he was alive. Look at him, the late Alpha was strong, do you believe that he is his son?’ I asked them all, growling angrily I was so focused on the pack members that I did not see Julian standing up and bringing out a hidden dagger laced with wolf's bane. ‘Myla watch out.’ Derrick screamed at me but I was a moment too late for he had already stabbed me with the silver dagger. ‘Your dead father would be disappointed in you for losing this pack to a stranger rather than being disappointed in the pack members for betraying his daughter.’ He removed the dagger and stabbed me again. ‘Welcome to your worst nightmare Myla- Rose Halls.' He tells me with a smirk. And that was how my suffering began. I became a maid in a palace where I used to be a princess. A soft yet painful chuckle escaped my lips as I approached the pack brothers. I had been living in the pack now for two years as a maid, with no food nor shelter. Every day I was bullied by people that I once saw as a friend, every day wolfsbane would be poured on me just so that I become weak, every day I watched my so-called mate have fun with someone else, every day I watched as the pack that my father had worked hard for being ruled by someone else, and every night I suffer the pain and agony of my mate mating with someone else. I'm the most pathetic wolf in the world right now. I slowed down when I began to approach the high walls of the pack. There were six guards assigned to protect the pack gates, with every shift a period of six hours. If I go there now I’ll get bullied by them for sure, and I can‘t wait here either. It would rain any minute from now and the guards still have four hours till another shift arrives. ‘I curse my miserable luck.’ I groaned lowly before coming out of my hiding spot and walking towards them. 'When have you ever had good luck?’ Athena sneered. ‘No need to pour salt into my bleeding wound and, instead lend me your strength. I might have to beat up some punks today.’ I tell her. I saw how she smiled standing up from the corner that she always lies in and coming forward. ‘Don’t get too happy. I didn’t say you could take over. I just ask you to lend me your strength’ I scolded her.‘Fine, fine. I’ll just sit here while you handle them.’ She pout at me making me chuckle at her childishness.
I know Athena wouldn’t let any opportunity of her taking over slide but I know her well enough to know that I have to keep her under control for she was a violent creature. ‘You do know that I can read your thoughts right?’ She spat venomously at me before lying in her favorite spot like nothing happened. I chuckled at her childishness, before bracing myself for the fight that was about to come. ‘Oh! Look who we have here.’ Raymond said. He was the one who saw me first. I continued walking towards the gate with the hope that they let me go, fingers crossed. I froze when I felt someone’s hand on my shoulder. ‘And where do you think you are going to bitch?’ He asked. I distanced myself from him before looking him in the eye, ‘to my room.’ I answered simply. They all laughed trapping me in the middle. ‘Hey guys, why don’t we have some fun before our shift is over.’ I looked at Raymond in disgust, how dear he belittles me like this! I remembered clearly that he and his parent took
As far as I know, no one outside the pack knows about me. My birth had been hidden from the werewolf world, no one knew about me. Could it be that my pack members betrayed me? From what I know, rogues attack my mum on her way to the dark forest pack. And then her body was brought back to our pack several weeks later. I knew this because of the autopsy my dad had insisted the pack doctor conduct on her immediately after she was brought back. The pack had said they found her dead in the river and truth be told her body was all bloated and blue. ‘You look so pathetic.’ The voice of my mate snapped me out of my thoughts. I sat up looking at him as he walked towards my direction with his hands around Hailey’s waist. I watched them as they played the role of the perfect mate in front of me. I just couldn’t understand why he would lie to the entire pack that Hailey was his mate. I mean what would he gain from doing so anyway? If he wanted to become the Alpha of my pack he could have sim
'They said that the late Alpha had no children and that you are just a…em…please forgive me Alpha but they said that you are just a bastard that is taking advantage of this opportunity to rule the pack.’ How come the council knows about the internal matters of the pack? It was not normal for the council to meddle in pack matters except of course it was affecting other packs which was most likely not possible. Everyone knew that the late Alpha of Silver Moon Pack was dead and it was obvious that rumors had been flying around that there was a new Alpha but this was not enough reason for the council members to check up on us. After all, to the outside world, it would look like the pack was not in disarray which was why a new Alpha emerged so quickly after the late Alpha passed. It was only natural for other packs to see it as the silver moon pack trying to protect their pack and keeping it united so that it wouldn’t fall prey to more rogue attacks in the future. Knowing all of this I
TWO MONTHS LATER It’s been exactly two months since I left my home pack, well my escape plan wasn’t a total success for I almost lost my life but still I managed to leave the pack after several severe injuries. Well, I can say that all my suffering was worth it for I got a lead on my mother’s death. It wasn’t rogues that attacked her on her way to the dark forest pack after all. Several rogues had confirmed that they dared not approach the dark forest pack for they had tight security. A rogue would be shot even before he steps feet near the borders. They also said that rogues rarely went near the south region where the dark forest pack happens to be located, well except for those who had a death wish. This left me with two things, either my mum was murdered by someone from the dark forest pack and then they dropped her at the borders near the river, or she was murdered even before she reached the pack bothers and they managed to dump her beside the pack borders. All the clues I
I went ahead with my business ignoring the annoying Alpha. What's wrong with him anyway? I mean, who on earth growls at their saviour? That's his problem not mine. I wiped the blood off my dagger and then turned around to leave only for several more rogues to appear before us.Seriously! Today was a bad day for me. I cracked my neck and pulled up my sleeve, ‘who’s first?’ I asked. No one needed to tell me that this group of rogues was here to fight, it’s just a simple law of “the jungle” as I like to call it. One of them stepped forward his eyes scanning the length of me, well not in a good way.His lustful gaze made me felt disgusted, Only then did I realize that half my shirt was gone.Mister Alpha seemed to have a problem with the way they were looking at me for he growled, the type of growl I was just too familiar with, that of a predator.The rogue with the dirty blond hair stepped forward his look not so different from the rest of his team. ‘Miss it’s not you we're after but
The sound of someone clearing their throat snapped me out of my thoughts, Mister Alpha was leaning on the door frame in all his glory, his jet black hair disheveled making me want to run my hands in them, and his clothing not matching his masculine traits, though I take back the fact that he was an ugly princess for he looked fucking…‘Are you done checking me out?’ I saw his kissable lips move before the words registered in my brain.'Em… I- how are you feeling?’ I asked instead. He tilted his head to the side studying me, his eyes searching my soul.He took long strides towards me his eye searching mine, stopping a few inches away from me. ‘Tell me.’ He whispered his face inches away from mine that even if I moved one bit the unspeakable eh was going to happen between us.I looked into his eyes questioning him as to why he was invading my personal space but he didn’t say a thing. He took a deep breath before snaking his hands around my waist and pulling me impossibly close to him m
ASHER'S POVMy mate is somewhere around here. I could perceive the fresh scent of vanilla and roses mixed with the refreshing and pure smell of the forest. I had to finish the rogues off so that I could go look for her. I’m very sure that she must be looking for me too for her scent was getting stronger by the minute, she's heading my way and I don't want her to see the mess I created. I have always wondered what my mate would look like and now that I finally found her I couldn’t wait to see her, to finally feel her, to treasure her, to protect her, for she was the most important person to me in the world. I had no family and my mate suddenly appearing meant I finally had someone that I could call family. Just thinking about it made excitement bobble in my stomach. I was already down to five rogues, hold on mate, I’ll come find you. I silently promised myself. Even Liam, my wolf was getting impatient with me. ‘Hurry up you fool, her scent is so strong, she’s not far away.’ He u
I took a deep breath before walking into the party hall. The murmuring and chattering of the entire guest seized their mouth agape with shock written all over their faces at the sight of me.Today, I am wearing a black mermaid strapless dress with a sweetheart neckline and a split at the side. The dress was pleated at each side of the hips and adorned with diamonds to create the illusion of larger hips. And of course, heels to match.For my jewelry, I chose a simple diamond necklace and earrings, plus, a clutch where I had hidden the Ruby. Since it was a masquerade party my mask was that of a fierce black wolf.Brian didn't lie about the Ruby helping me out though. Immediately I showed the guards the Ruby, they bowed before me and even showed me the way to the hall thereby saving me the stress of finding it on my own. To my surprise, no questions were asked.I survey my surroundings ignoring the shocked stares I get from everyone. Brian informed me earlier that he was going to wear
