“Are they ready?” Alston asked Zachariah as his heart kept thumping wildly on his chest.“Yes. They’re all outside, waiting for you.” Zachariah replied as he bowed down to him.Alston nodded as he continued to pave back and forth the room. He was scared, for the first time in his life, he was damn scared and nervous about her. What if they didn’t leave the house? What if they decided to be tough? He saw the doubt on her mothers face when he dropped the key. He had seen how disappointed Arya was by the look she gave him. She could also be stubborn sometimes, what if she decides not to listen to him or them and stay in the house.“Your highness..:” Zachariah called out again.“Let’s go.” He pushed the thought at the back of his mind before walking outside. He had given them a chance, it was theirs to make if they wanted to take it or not.“Your highness.” The while guard growled at his appearance.“I want all of the place to be ransacked, every inch and corner of the house should not go
After a lot of parables from the priestesses, Alston finally got what he wanted to hear from them and he could say for one reason or the other, there were lies in what they said to him.“She was married, and she went ahead to sleep with another man. The baby wasn’t her husband's and the other man had a demon in him, the baby got a hold of the evil powers and we wanted to kill the child but she escaped before they could even get to her.” One of them had replied to him.But he chose not to believe because when he had asked them,“Who was the man she slept with?” He questioned.They all turned their heads and looked at each other, no one able to say any word again. But he didn’t want to scare them, nor let them know he knew something about it. He finally let them go and he could see the relief in their eyes as he did that.“Wait.” He called back when they were almost at the door.“I want all information about the priestess be brought to me. Down to her family.” He said before standing up
The next few days were very tough for Alston, managing both the pack and feeding his mate and her family, he was trying his whole best to balance the two out. He had gone shopping yesterday and bought them a lot of foodstuffs with the list he was given, only to find out he got the fake ones for some products and the originals for some. Anger coursed through his vein at the thought of it, why would there be a fake and original product of the same thing at the same time?That’s why he kept on saying this things and looking at it, the humans are very cunny and would do anything to get what they want. He had to go back to the market and return the goods, without touching the woman that sold it because he was instructed not to by Arya mom.He had noticed that she could sense him whenever he’s angry or cold or didn’t want to talk or tired, and same was Arya. But the girl was still angry, and would only talk to him if she wished to or bored. He had gotten in touch with her friend who has com
Things has been going well between both Alston and Arya. Alston makes sure to visit her everyday, buys her a lot of things, flowers, chocolates and spoils her rotten. No one has been able to detect or know where they’re staying apart from Zachariah’s whom Alston used to send anytime he was very busy.“So you’re the alpha to that big community? Like the president?” Arya asked one evening as she laid on the bed.The both of them were laying on the bed, their arms folded beneath their heads as they looked at the ceiling.“Yes. Like the president of a nation.” Alston replied.“Wow! That’s a lot of stress. I can’t imagine myself being in charge of a lot of people.” Arya muttered as she shook her head.“You’re my mate. You’ll have to help me out with this when the time comes.” He said to hers“That doesn’t mean I’m going to be telling them what to do. I can just be the supervisor while they do the whole work right?” She asked as she turned to look at Alston.He looked back at her before lo
“Tell all the guards of the pack, I want them back in the park now! Tell all our allies in the human world! I want them back in the pack today!” Alston yelled at Zachariah as he said this.Zachariah took some steps back as his heart raced out, “May I ask the reason for this, your highness?” He asked.Alston clenched his jaw as a deep sigh escaped his lips. He had given this order from yesterday and yet Zachariah decided not to pull it out.“That’s what I want, you have a problem with that?” He turned back to him with reddened eyes. Zachariah wolf bowed to him, making Zachariah not able to do anything again.“I’ll make sure to pass it round immediately.” He said before bowing and hurrying out of the room.Alston slammed his st to the table as a loud growl erupted his lips. He made his way out of the penthouse and walked towards his chamber, the hall and room where all the meetings take place, where he was supposed to be living before he picked the silent heart of the pack. Anyone who
“It’s not like that mother. I’ve just been busy.” He replied as he pressed his lips together.“Busy with what? With finding the girl or what?” His mother said back to him.“Mother… what do you know about the high priestess who gave birth to the child?” Alston required.He looked up to meet his mother frowned face before she drew out a chair and sat on it.“I don’t know anything about that. I can’t even say anything about that. But she went against one of the rules and that was the punishment given to her. I can’t say much apart from that.” She replied.“Thanks mum. I have to go now.” Alston replied before standing up and pecking her cheeks.“Wha…what…what? You just got here and now..“I’ve been here for a while now.” He sighed as he turned to face her again.“I mean, I just got here!” She yelled at him.“Mum. I have to rest and think on what next to do about what we’ll do about the girl. We have to find her and put an end to this. And you, can stop the mate hunt.” He retorted with a s
“I’m ready.” She screamed with her face glowing in happiness.“Arya, you’re supposed to wear flats or sneakers, what if you have to run? What if something happens.. what if..“Don’t worry Mrs Jenkins. I’ll be there with her, nothing can happen.” Alston cut her off.He didn’t want anyone to spoil the damsel's mood as her face showed how happy she was. She stuck her tongue to her mother before hopping down the stairs.“Bye..” she waved at them before alston bowed and walked out with her.Mrs Jenkins sighed before looking at her husband.“What do you think he wants from her?” She asked with worry on her face.“I don’t know…” he replied in his masculine voice before drawing her closer and rubbing her back.“But I think he has the best interest for her.” He added.“So all you have to do is keep calm and just let fate do its thing.” He finished off as he rested her head on his broad chest.She sighed again, closing her eyes and enjoying the pats she got from her husband. Arya was the only t
Alston walked back to the car with a defeated look on his face. “She’s not in school.” He said to Arya immediately he entered. “What! Eileen didn’t come to school? Are you sure you asked well?” Arya turned her head to him with raised brows. “If asking from the principal and him sending delegates to each classes to check means I asked well, then I think I did.” Alston replied her. Arya felt disappointed but had no choice. He has done his part and she could still go and check at eileen house. “Let’s go to her house.” She said. “Okay then. Do you know how to drive, because I don’t know her directions.” “Then we’ll use Google map.” She brought out her phone and connected the map to the car. Alston raised his brow as the female voice of the thing called ‘Google’ started talking and told him to reverse his car. Maybe the humans have a little bit of sense too, because creating this means a lot. The ca
