Alexa POV...I felt pretty uncomfortable as some people here did not want me to sit with them, but Logan insisted, and I had no choice. Everyone was looking at me awkwardly as I sat close to the Alpha. “I should not be here,” I said to myself inaudibly.I looked around nervously, there were a lot of people here, and all eyes were on me and the Alpha, which made me uncomfortable.“Welcome to the party,” Simon said to me. This calmed my nerves a bit, and I was beginning to settle down finally. I smiled at him graciously before looking away. The Alpha then filled my cup with wine before handing it to me.“Here you go,” Alpha Logan said to me. I reluctantly collected the cup of wine with an awkward smile before placing the cup on the table.“Is everything okay?” He asked me, as he could tell I was unsettled at that moment.“No… not at all,” I said, trying not to make the moment more complicated than it already was. “You know we can leave if you don’t feel comfortable here?” The Alpha as
Logan’s POV...The dinner was over, and Alexa and I made our way to our chambers. I noticed the way some members of the pack looked at me, it seemed like they wanted to tell me something, but they couldn’t; the more I tried to understand what was going on, the more I was further away from the truth, I couldn’t bother myself about what the lesser members of the pack think, for goddess knows what, it could be something entirely irrelevant.Alexa and I made it to our chambers, and I closed the doors.“So, how was dinner? Did you enjoy the meal and wine?” I asked Alexa because she seemed to not be at ease for the longest time when we were in the hall.“The food was nice, and the wine was impeccable, but there is one problem tho,” Alexa replied.“What is that, my dear?” I inquired. “Some members of your pack didn’t seem to like the idea of us sitting together,” Alexa answered. “I think if they could, they would have used their eyes to kill me at the spot I was sitting, “she added. “They
Author's POV...Logan stood in shock at the request the elder had just put in front of him."And what if I don't adhere to your demands?" He asked. "We and all members of the pack would leave you and choose a new Alpha from our ranks, an Alpha who would make the best decision on behalf of the pack and who is not blinded by his own sentiments," the elder replied."And who are you to bark such orders to me?" Logan snarled. He was ready to start a fight hoping to end this facade of a rebellion."I don't think that is the right thing to do," Simon said while putting himself between Logan and the elder."You are playing right into their trap; this is a plot, don't fall for it, "Simon whispered as he tried to calm Logan down from making rash decisions he would regret later.Logan took a few steps back and some deep breaths to relieve himself of his rage. He had thought hard about a possible solution that would favour both parties, but he could not come up with any at the moment. "I will s
Alexa’s POV...I went on with my plans to confront Logan, regardless of what Selena said; I needed to clear her mind once and for all. Random thoughts had been circling my head, and this made me uncomfortable. I needed to know the truth. I need Logan to make a decision and clear my thoughts about my position in his life,I made my way to his chambers. Along the way, I could not hear but notice the judgmental look I was getting from other pack members I passed by.The looks I was getting were the same as the first day I got here; most of the pack members would kill me with their eyes if they could. The only thing protecting me was the Alpha, and that turned out to be losing its grip lately.I bowed my head as I walked past the group of fellows whose insults I silently heard from behind.I walked to Logan’s chambers, and as I was about to knock, I heard voices. I went to closer listen to what
Alexa's POV...I stood close to the door, unable to believe what I heard. My heart raced faster than horses that were taken to war."Logan doesn't really care about me," I thought to myself. His words struck my heart like lightning from the heavens above. I stood behind the door, still in shock, as I tried my best to keep the tears from dropping from my cheeks. I continued to listen as they were not done with their conversation."Are you going to let her go as the elders requested? "Simon asked."Hell no… I will …. I will probably just lock her up again until all the steam blows off, "Logan replied."If you don't care about her, why are you still keeping her close?" Simon asked again."I need her here to be able to snuff out any act of rebellion, and moreover, I need her here to satisfy myself, given she is my mate, and our bond is growing stronger," Logan replie
Author's POV...***THE NEXT DAY***"Alexa? Alexa!!! Hello, please, has anybody seen Alexa?"Oh, goddess! Where is Alexa????Selena could not find Alexa, she had looked everywhere, but all was to no avail as she could not find a single trace of her. It was like she just vanished into thin air."Oh, goddess, Alexa, what have you done?" Selena thought to herself, remembering the tone of Alexa's words yesterday. Alexa has run away from the pack!Upon making this discovery, Selena hurriedly ran over to Simon's chambers, panicking as she knocked at his door."Hey…. How are you?" Simon tried to start the formalities as he opened."Alexa is missing!" Selena gasped as she walked straight into the room with tears in her eyes."I don't understand. What do you mean by missing?" Simon asked."I can't find her anywhere," Selena replied.
Author's POV...Kara has finally been released from prison. Most of the pack members cheered whenever they saw her walk past them. To them, she was a walking sign of the preservation of their pack. Most of them saw her as their saviour. She was seen to be the only one who could stop Alexa and her sinister plans to annihilate the entire pack. Many Red Lotus wolves still don't like Kara, but their hatred for Alexa would always beat that. Kara went to her chambers for the first time in a long time. She changed her clothes as she tried to get some refreshments too.There was a knock on the door."Come in, "Kara said, speaking softly as though she was expecting someone and at the back of her mind, she was. She was expecting Logan but her wishes were not happening anytime soon. The doors opened, and Diana walked right inside and closed the door immediately behind her."So when am I getting a promotion?" Diana said with an evil smirk appearing on her face."Promotion? I thought you were the
Alexa’s POV...I went as far as I could from Logan’s territory, scaling through the woods. I wore a cloak that covered my head completely, those types of coverings that mainly were the apparel of priests and holy persons. The cloak disguised me well; it would take a magician to recognize me by merely looking at me.“Before anyone would notice my disappearance, I would be long gone by then,” I said to myself while hitting my horse so it could move faster. The mount didn’t disappoint, hopping faster like a kangaroo being chased by a lion. We got to a shallow river where we had to take a break; I jumped down from the horse’s back.“Good boy,” I said, patting his back. He has done a pretty good job getting me this far, though I don’t think it is as far as I want to be from Logan and his pack. I pulled the horse over so
