Alpha Damian....I stood to my feet, walking from one end to the other. It's been a week and still no positive feedback from the guard I sent to spy for Arya in the neighboring pack.I rubbed my palms together, agitated about the whole situation."Alpha," I heard someone call from the midlink.“Speak to me.” “At the bar at the Crestmoon Pack, some people spoke about a girl about to be executed, but she was pregnant. She was given a few months till she gave birth,” the guard said, doubtful that it might be the Arya Alpha Damian spoke about."Pregnant,” I gasped, and then the memories of my conversation with Alice flooded my mind.“She killed my father, Damian.” I shut my eyes at the dead bodies littering all over the place, like there had been a battle.I watched the lifeless bodies of my own people lying helplessly on the ground. I grew bigger and bigger, but Alice was so shocked when she saw her father's body.His head decapitated from his body. A miserable way to die. Alice sobbed
Alpha JasperMy hands were shaking. I was sitting in my office, staring at nothing, my mind wandering far away.For the umpteenth time, I asked myself whether I was doing the right thing or not. My wolf was sober and quiet all this time; I could feel him whimper at the back of my head.A knock on the door diverted my attention, and the guard I sent to Ember Moon walked into my office in disguise.That's right, I have been spying on Embermoon for a long time now, waiting for when to strike them."Alpha," he said, bowing his head in respect."Ember Moon will be attacking tonight; they want to save the girl called Arya Scotler. She is the only person who has to save Luna Seraphine." "What!" I hopped to my feet, my gaze on the guard."Why am I just knowing this now? Why didn't you inform me earlier?" I spoke in a harsh tone, with angry evidence on my face.I have thought of so many ways to get my revenge on Embermoon. I was waiting for the right time to strike. Using Arya should be the
Selena walked back to the pack house, terrified and shocked to her bones. She had planned to take out Josh that same night, but it seems he had more enemies than she thought.She sneaked into her chambers and collapsed on her bed. Uncertainty slept through her; the same nightmare from years ago flooded her head.She had experienced a mental breakdown when she lost her parents years ago. Josh was brutally murdered the same way as her parents.She rolled herself up in a ball, trying so hard to sleep, but it never came; rather, she was taken back into her own thoughts. Her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't stop. Time passed as the chirping of the birds filled the room. Selena was still in that position, like she had been. She cried all night, frightened over what she saw."My lady, are you okay?" Her personal maid, who came to arrange the room the next morning, rushed to her side."I just have a headache, but it will be fine. Please continue with your work." The maid nodded a
Arya rested her back against the wall when two pairs of hands grabbed her.She tried to scream, but a cloth was wrapped over her mouth to stifle her cries. They gripped her arms and lifted her off the floor. She felt a sharp pain penetrate her skin, and slowly, she passed out, waking up in a cozy room."Where am I?" she asked, looking around and taking in her surroundings. She was lying on a bed."Who brought me here? What is going on?" She turned her head from one side to the other, her eyes wide with fear."My baby," she gasped, looking down at her bulging stomach. It was still intact. She sighed with relief; she had thought her captors had taken her baby from her.It was just a few weeks before her due date, which made her stomach churn with anxiety. The idea of her execution crossed her mind, and she felt uneasy.She gradually stood up from the bed and walked to the door, but it was locked from the outside. She heard voices from outside, like two people having a conversation."Hey
Arya flinched at a spot when she heard the familiar voice behind her—the voice she hadn't heard for months. She had thought she might have disappeared since she didn't bump into her earlier She turned to see Alice's stern look boring to her. Alice hadn't changed a bit; she was still the same as when Arya left. The same size and same color of hair.Arya squeezed her shaking hand into a ball, hiding it behind her back. She didn't want Alice to notice her nervousness. Arya should be angry at her, ready to take her revenge, which caused her heart rate to increase until she could hear it pounding in her ears.She still felt scared of Alice, even after so many months had passed.Arya wondered if her return to the pack was a blessing or if it would stir up more trouble for her. The voice in her subconscious that usually warned her of impending danger was silent. Now it was just her and her pup, who never ceased kicking in her stomach."I heard you've been rescued. It's good to see you back
Arya ran a hand through her hair; she couldn't believe what she had just heard.Selena would go to any length to ensure she got what she wanted. Arya never imagined that Sofera would betray her."Get out," she said with a heavy voice."I'm sorry, my lady. I acted on Selena's orders; she took my mother. I couldn't help it." Arya didn't want to hear anymore; she felt utterly betrayed by Sofera's actions."Why did you come here?" Arya asked, her voice tinged with suspicion, knowing that Sofera might not have come to kill her."I ran away from the pack; I was tired of being used by Selena," Sofera said with tears in her eyes."It was you who sent those pictures to me, wasn't it?" Arya asked, raising an eyebrow."Yes, my lady, it was me. When I heard of your punishment, I felt guilty. I had to send those pictures to you so you could defend yourself." Sofera's tears intensified as she left the room.Arya stood transfixed, her hand covering her mouth as she tried to stifle the sobs. It felt
"Ah Ah ah" Arya screamed further, breathing heavily."What is wrong?" Jasper ran over to her a sense of urgency ran through Jasper who couldn't tell what to do next."Arya hold on, take a deep breath while I call for help" Jasper's face paled with worry. Luna Seraphine looked around, she couldn't tell who the girl crying with so much pain was and she was too weak to help.Jasper came back with guards behind him, they ran to hold Arya side by side. Arya's contraction became more intense, she knew those moments would come but never expected too close. She still has two weeks to go- not in a place filled with so many enemies, she hasn't figured out what to do next.She was skeptical about her child's safety."Take a step" Jasper urges her, as she doubled over, holding her belly, Jasper face paled with worry. He has no experience which got him sweat just watching Arya in pain."We need to get you to the hospital," he said, trying to steady her."Get the vehicle immediately" he yelled at
Damian listened attentively to the guards conversation, his heart began to race. What could Alice be planning? All he heard was Alice leaving through the backdoor to God knows where but there were not many details about what she was going for and where she was going to.It sounds fishy for Alice to leave through the backdoor. Damian went back to the ceremony to confirm his suspension.He peered his eyes at where Alice sat but she was not there, how could she have left without any one notice? He looked through the crowds but Alice wasn't found. His eyes cut through Arya and the tiny pup on her hand.His heart ached, how he wished it was his. He was drawn like a moth to a flame watching both mother and child, forgetting about Alive momentarily.The celebration came to an end, Damian retired back to his room, sleep far from his eyes. He stood at the window listening to the wind rustling through the trees, the silver hues from the moon which casted shadows across the ground.Damian thoug
