Julia’s POVThe Alpha’s health deteriorated quicker than expected. He was said to be suffering from a disease unknown, but nobody expected him to look so emaciated in the space of two days since he fell ill and was diagnosed. He looked very malnourished as he laid sick in his bed, grasping for breath. Begging for life.I shook my head and so did Richard as he had his hands folded together in front of him. We were standing in front of the alpha in his bedroom, along with the chief gamma, beta and Zeta. Each of us wore a pitiful look on our faces, but we dared not voice any word of sympathy. One thing we knew our alpha hated was sympathy.I still wonder where the man who was full of life two days ago disappeared to.Nothing much was said to the alpha as he could barely speak. We stepped out of his room, and we saw the pack doctor approaching. “He’s getting worse, doctor,” Zeta Jamie said to him.“What’s happening?” Richard asked him.The pack doctor sighed. “Believe me, I am trying my b

Julia’s POVThe next morning, the whole house was being cleaned by the omegas. The bodies of the rogues were carried out and burnt. The bodies in the fields and the road leading to the pack house which was in the center of the territory, were also exhumed.The windows were still broken as they were, Richard had said he would fix them after we were back from the emergency meeting the council of elders had called again.The stench of blood was still hanging in the air despite the soap and water scrub the omegas were using on the floors. I scrunched up my nose as I walked past them and headed for Alexis’s room. Last night had been really surprising for Richard and I.After escaping from the chaos happening at the council’s chambers through our teeth, and fighting through our teeth from the one happening on the road that led to the main gate were the alpha lived, we had met a battle in our home that ended almost as quickly as we came. We saw Alex rescuing Alexis, and Richard had immediate

Alex’s POVEveryone seemed to be too stunned to speak after what I had just said. It gave me satisfaction to see them have those confusing and surprised expressions on their faces.“Excuse me?” Alexis’s broke the ominous silence surrounding us.I grinned. “I mean, you’re my sister. It typically means you’re mine forever. My sister forever till date do us back,” I teased. I had meant when I said she was mine. I had meant it with all the fibers in my body and soul. I just had to make a twist in it, so I wouldn’t scare her that much.She moved away from me, and I saw Gena walking up the stairs. I totally ignored her.“Should you not have said it that way instead of your previous statement? Why do you like keeping everyone on their toes?” She asked me, getting riled.“It’s fun. Don’t you think so?” I shrugged and grinned as I looked from Richard to Julia. Their expressions were wild. Except from alpha Kane. He had a stoic look on his face.“It’s not funny sometimes, Alex. What do you thin

Alex’s POV“What do you mean?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at him.He gave a dry chuckle. “What don’t I mean?”“You very well know what’s happening here. So, tell me,” I squared my shoulders.“Of course. I’m not oblivious to my surroundings. I know you’re in love with your sister,” he smirked.I stared at him expressionless. “Believe whatever you want to, Kane. One thing I’m certain about is that my sister will not end up with you. I’ll ensure that,”“Challenge accepted, Alexander. But, I must warn you, I have never lost a challenge,” He replied smugly as he turned around and walked towards his car. His gamma opened the car for him, and he got in.I watch the car drive away and a sudden urge to prove that alpha Kane must have some dirty secrets that I needed to dig out. That would be the only way I could separate him from Alexis. I could see that she was becoming fond of him, and I didn’t like it.Alphas always had a dark secret or a past haunting them. Alpha Kane would be of no differ
