Kaileyn started her story. " Once upon a time, years ago to be precise, the werewolves lived happily until a man came into the picture. He was different from the werewolves, very different and even though he was much weaker than them, he found great pleasure in getting rids of the stronger creatures."" He was called the ruthless hunter. He hated the werewolves so much and they hated him as much and even more than he did. This man was a bone in the werewolves throat and they found it so hard to capture him and have their revenge."" This man had killed both a lot of the innocent pack members and sold the ones he kept alive for scientific experiments. He used those strange modern drugs on the werewolves that'd always make them writhe in extreme anguish."" The man didn't stop till after almost four decades before he finally disappeared to nowhere, after haunting the werewolves for a long time. A lot of people were attacked during his reign, both the royals and the commoners so the
Naina rushed down from the car angrily with tears in her eyes and dried ones on her cheeks." My lady, you're back so soon? What of the Beta?" Her maid asked but she only brushed past the maid as she ran and walked to the Herves palace.She was going to see Estelle. She needed to ask and know why it had to be only her all the whole time. What about her? Was she so perfect that she didn't have any problems at all?Lair who was emerging from the training ground frowned when he recognized Naina running towards the Herves palace and he could immediately tell she was not fine." They came back so soon." He said, turning to one of the guards who nodded. " Where's Neil? Have you seen him?" He asked again." Only Lady Naina came back to the pack, I don't know of the beta yet but I think he'll be coming back later on." The guard said but with a confused frown.Lair only sighed. He'd just tried to link Neil but as he suspected, something had gone wrong again." You all can go now." He said a
Lair stood a meter away from the Alpha's study as he listened to the Alpha and Kaileyn's conversation." That bitch," he muttered.Meanwhile, in the study, River stared at Kaileyn in utter disbelief and anger." What has gotten into you?" He asked but Kaileyn only shrugged though she was looking away from him.Despite the stubborn and unchanged look on her face, she was having several thoughts deep down in her.She thought about so many things. Was she supposed to have done this? She didn't like the way he was now looking at her at all.He looked so disappointed." She snatched him from you!" Alisha's voice echoed in her head and the angry look on her face seemed to have tripled. Right then, she turned to River." I've told you what it is that you have to do, River. You have no choice and besides, she isn't pregnant no more so she's more or less of a useless vessel." Kaileyn said and when she saw the man take a step towards her, she immediately shouted again." I'm really going to
" River," she yelled again and he finally halted on his tracks, as if he just realized he had done something stupid.The Alpha turned back slowly to meet his mate's shimmering, wide eyes.Estelle was at the verge of tears again as she was confused. Had someone exchanged her River with this strange man in front of her? Was this really the River she knew?" W...what is happening?" Her voice cracked, staring at the silver haired man who had confusion roaming through his golden orbs.He seemed confused and she didn't understand why." When did all of this start, River?" She inquired again, finally breaking down. Her loud sobs echoing in the large room.The man's eyes twitched and squinted in pain as he watched the woman before him break down helplessly." Estelle please," he immediately ushered her into his large arms, his hand gently caressing her red cheeks and, his eyes pleading for her to stop crying.He could feel his heart breaking at that, and, when he recalled what he had done
Estelle shifted on her seat again. She had been waiting for Luna Lindsay to show up for a while now but the woman had been keeping her waiting for a long time.Whether she was doing it intentionally or not, Estelle didn't care. As long as she saw her, she would be fine.Right at that moment, the haughty Luna walked in and Estelle already felt that pride and arrogance around her." I don't know why River's Luna wants to see me." She scoffed, elegantly taking her seat and giving Estelle a look the latter didn't like but she just couldn't say anything.After all, she was here for a favor that the woman before her had to grant." Good day, Luna Lindsay." Estelle greeted with a smile that the woman didn't return. It looked like she glared at her instead." I'm here to..."" Plead? You're here to apologize, right? As expected. I heard that bitch is your mother. How could River have a luna with a mother like that? Listen..."" I didn't come here to listen to lectures, Luna. I'm also not h
" I'll give this to the Alpha, take this to her." Melina said, referring to Estelle.Connor recalled Melina's words as he waited for the large living room door to open, expecting someone. His eyes shifted to the upper floor and a smirk appeared on his face as he wondered what Melina was doing.Meanwhile, Melina smirked as she saw the beautiful man reading. He looked so handsome that she just wanted to watch him but she was in a hurry." Melina," she had him call. He had noticed her first." Good evening, Alpha. Erm....I... Luna Estelle is back and she asked me to give this to you. She's in the royal kitchen." Melina lied, placing the wine glass carefully on the man's table.He only nodded and his eyes returned to the book he was reading but he looked up again when he saw Melina was still standing there." You can go, Melina." He told her but she angrily pushed her toe against the wall. Gosh, she just needed him to take a sip. A taste of that wine and everything would be good but
" Does...that mean, she also controlled you into falling for her?" Estelle asked, after a long silence and the man raised his head to stare at her." She won't be able to control me anymore. She only had the power to do that because she was beside me and I let my guard down too much." He replied and she nodded.A small smile on his face as he heard her relieved sigh." I'm just so happy she didn't do what she tried to do. I would have died of a heartbreak, oh my heart." Estelle sighed again, remembering River's half nude body." Come here," he sighed, opening his large arms for her and she smiled widely as she trudged forward towards him but just as she touched him, he flung her off him like she was some kind of disease.Estelle stared at him in surprise from where he had thrown her, ignoring the bruise on her arm, she stared at him as he suddenly growled loudly.She definitely didn't miss the way his beautiful eyes changed to the predatory and dangerous color of red." R...river?"
" As I said, my father was a complete demon, evil, wicked and any name you could call it. He was literally worse than a devil. He always wanted to win and be superior above everyone."" One day he met my mother and he wanted her because she hated him and because she told him he couldn't have her. He wanted to have her and suppress her, he wanted to be the superior one and the Lord over her. He did get my mother, but with force and he locked her in his cell, mistreating and torturing her, with his mistresses."" My father's several rape led to my creation and my mother's pregnancy which she loathed a lot. She despised me right from the womb but my father didn't know one thing. My mother was a witch, a young one who was practicing towards the peak of her power and that was why she never retaliated to any of my father's torments earlier."Estelle had him take a long breath and she squeezed his hand gently." She finally achieved the powers she wanted and as expected, she killed my fa
