"King Azalea, what is the way forward?" One of his council members asked."We'll go back and search every nook and cranny of the Knighthood pack. All I did was search their Alpha and Luna's room. Even with that, it wasn't a thorough search. I will take some warriors with me". King Azalea, who sat at the head of the long conference table replied."How about the twins, the late Alpha and Luna's girls?" Another council member asked.At the mention of the twins, King Azalea felt his stomach sink. He has not even thought of them. He didn't even remember they existed. He almost had a soft feeling of care towards them but he remembered his father and his heart clenched."They've been taken to the royal mansion where they'll be serving as maids to the royal family". King Azalea said."What if they try to escape?" The council member who had spoken first, asked."Escape!" Azalea exclaimed, throwing himself into a fit of laughter."They can't even escape their own pack woods, talkless of my King
King Azalea watched as the conference room was thrown into the chaos."Enough!" Alpha Simeon banged his fist on the table again."King Azalea, we just want to know why you did it". Alpha Simeon said."We all have our reasons for killing don't we?" King Azalea said with a smile and Alpha Simeon gulped."You didn't answer the question". Alpha Simeon said."If I were to ask you mine, would you answer?"The Alpha stuttered. King Azalea had a proud look on his face, watching the speechless Alpha. He had him right where he wanted."Are the twins safe?" Alpha Simeon asked."Of course. Why won't they be? They're being given the best of treatment". He lied."If that's all, I'll be taking my leave". With that, he made his grand exit.After he left, the whole room was thrown into confusi
Alice got up and to Alicia's utmost dismay, packed the broken plates and squashed berries back into the tray. She went over to where the maid who pushed her down was and dropped it by her side."I guess you were hungry. Never knew you had a knack for broken glasses". She said and walked out.The head chef grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back."Who are you talking to that way? You're a nobody here. No one is your mate. Mind the way you talk". She said."Let my sister go". Alicia said walking forward. The vampire maids circled her."Where do you think you're going?" They asked her."Next time, mind your business and watch your steps*. The head chef said and landed Alice a slap.Alicia could do nothing but watch. The vampires had circled her.How did their life get to this? She hated the vampire King. She hated hi
The minute Alice and Alicia got hurt, King Azalea felt it. Worst was when Alice slumped. It felt like his heart was torn open. He couldn't feel this way for them. He didn't want them as mates.'Reject them then'. His inner mind said.He couldn't reject them either. A part of him knew those girls could be the best thing that has ever happened to him. They were beautiful. Every man in his right sense would want and desire them. Maybe that was the problem with him. He wasn't in his right sense. He definitely wasn't. But when he thought back at his mission, his heart went cold. How could the moon goddess complicate his mission by mating him with his opposition's children?He groaned and decided to put a call across to his sister. She wasn't picking up. He tried again, twice but no response. It got him worried. Much more worried. Sasha never missed her calls.He focused on the road and drove to Knighthood
Alice opened the door to see the Princess on her bed, staring at her with a smile. It was a shock to her. Princess Sasha, smile to her. This particular smile was not one of her mischievous or mocking smile, it was genuine.She took her time to stare well at the Princess. She was beautiful, her skin flawless. Her eyes were black as opposed to Alice's gray own. She had dimples that bored down like holes when she smiled.Alice handed over the tray to her and she got it."Thank you". She said and Alice choked on her spit.Princess Sasha just thanked her. Was she possessed or something? Did the King ask her to be nice to them?She turned to leave but stopped at the Princess's voice."Wait! Stay! Don't leave". She said and Alice turned her back and stood by the door, watching Sasha pop the berries into her mouth.The silence was deafening and A
Alicia watched her sister in pity. Princess Sasha's ranting had attracted so much attention that all of the cooks came out. They all laughed at Alice. Alicia felt bad but there was nothing she could do. She looked at the clock, it was 9:30pm. Nearly ten."They can't even do anything right. Spoilt brats". One of the maids mocked.Alicia went back to the kitchen to tidy up and wash the dishes. She met one of the maids inside. She seemed not to notice Alicia. Alicia on the other hand had not even seen her face the whole day. Maybe she did but couldn't remember."Laughing at two unfortunate children and you find it funny". The girl mumbled, tidying up. The sentence caught Alicia's attention."Uhmm hi!" Alicia said, finally deciding to talk to the girl.The girl jumped up, startled."It's just me". Alicia said, raising her hands in the air.Th
The twins froze on their seats. They knew they were in trouble. They looked up to see none other than Kylie. She was smirking at them. "You really don't know what it means to keep shut do you?" Kylie asked, walking towards them. "We weren't gossiping!" Alicia was quick to say. "Well then, since you weren't gossiping,would you mind me telling Princess Sasha?" Kylie asked. "No. No please". Alice quickly said. She feared Princess Sasha more than anything. "Someone's scared of her mistress". Kylie mocked Alice. The twins didn't say a word. They knew just one word would push Kylie. "I'll pretend like I never heard this nor this ever happened and won't tell the Princess". Kylie said and the twins bubbled in delight. "But on one condition". She said and the twins's happiness died down and their moods silently changed from happy to sad and slightly curious. They stared at her questioningly. "You'll do whatever I w
Alice reasoned what her sister had said and realized it was all true. The King was in every way unworthy of their love. Not like they loved him in the first place. He was the cause of their misery and problems.They continued to wash the table cloth in silence, each reliving the events of the day. Alice hated the chief cook for slicing her sister's face and the maid that rubbed pepper on Alicia's wounds. Alicia hated the cook that made Alice stumble and Princess Sasha for beating her sister's face to the point it was."Have you had something to eat?" Alicia asked her sister."Since the one slice of bread we had in the morning, I've not had anything else to eat". Alice replied."You haven't eaten?" Alicia exclaimed in shock."Lower your voice there Alicia. Aside from Kylie, no one else should know you're out here, helping me with my punishment ". Alice said."
