Chapter 57The full moon anniversary The pack soldiers stood tall and proud, their uniforms neatly pressed and their weapons gleaming in the early morning light. They listened intently as their head pack soldier, a seasoned warrior with a grizzled beard, held up a book and read from it with a deep, authoritative voice. The words echoed through the courtyard, sending a shiver down the spines of the gathered soldiers. For them, the full moon anniversary was a sacred event, a time when the pack came together to celebrate their heritage and honor their ancestors. As the head pack soldier finished reading, there was a hushed silence. Then, slowly, the soldiers began to stir, nodding to each other and exchanging excited whispers. They knew that the coming celebration would be a time of great joy and camaraderie, a chance to forget the troubles of the world and revel in the strength of their pack. The soldiers turned and filed out of the courtyard, their boots clanging on the stone walkwa
Chapter 58 The plot Riella stood still, frozen in place, as Stefan's grip on her hand tightened. She could feel his anger radiating from him, and she was afraid. Afraid of what he might do, afraid of what he might say. She tried to pull away from him, but his grip was too strong. As Stefan strode off into the distance, Riella heaved a deep sigh of relief. Her heart felt as though it had stopped beating for a moment there. She couldn't believe how close she had come to danger. Her eyes filled with tears as she realized how vulnerable she truly was. She quickly made her way to her chambers, shutting the door behind her with a loud thud. She leaned against it, trying to catch her breath. Her mind was racing with thoughts of what had just happened, and she couldn't shake the feeling of fear that had settled in her stomach. As she closed her eyes, she tried to calm herself down. She took deep breaths, willing herself to relax. She knew that she couldn't let Stefan's actions control her
CHAPTER 1GOLDENROD PACKPacing up and down the room, Nathan is restless as to what he is to do next. He did come across his mate yesterday night at the event he went to. He did not get the chance to talk to her as he had to give a speech. Her face doesn't look familiar but he knew she was his mate. It's hard for him to be the pack leader with the way things are going for him. It seems like soon enough, his pack might want to ask for a new one. He has a big problem. He is a Lycan whose side isn't coming out and only a beastly side of him remains. The only way to bring out his controllable side is for him to meet his mate and claim her according to the prophecy he had when he was born. He will be the most powerful if he could just do that. But then, he has never met her before until yesterday.He went to an art exhibition event where a friend invited him because she's also participating. He never thought that in a place like this, he could meet his mate whom he had been searching for
CHAPTER 2 Riella stared at him as he touched his chest. She had mixed feelings about what she just did. But the feeling of hatred was greater than the feeling of likeness. If only he came from another pack that wasn't the Goldenrod Pack, things would have been totally different. "But why? You can't do this to me please..." He pleaded with her. She scoffed, "Who on earth made you the pack leader? I've never seen someone as dumb and weak as you are. Just leave before I call for help and report you for trespassing. I want nothing to do with you as you can see, just leave me alone and never come back!" She was about to leave when he pulled her back. Riella was flustered, she felt strange as he touched her. "Why? Tell me why you are doing this." "Don't touch me!" She snapped at him and pulled her hand off him, "You have no right to ask me why! Ask your pack what they did to my father! He was all I had left and you people just had to take him away from me. Now leave, I don't want t
****" Riella, you can still call this guy and settle--"That's enough! I do not want to hear it again, " Riella yelled cutting Casey off .She walked away from her, picked up a broom, "You should go now, I want to clean up-" "Stop being so stubborn and let me help you." Casey stopped her and started cleaning before Riella could do anything. After cleaning the house, her father's room was left. Riella asked Casey to leave the place alone, she was going to clean her father's room herself. She was too tired to do it today, so she decided to continue the next day. She could hardly sleep all night because of Nathan. She just felt restless and did not know why. She hated the fact that she would not stop thinking about him. It made her angry, she felt like cutting her head off to stop herself from thinking about him. She woke up early and decided to clean her father's room to keep her mind off things. She figured, she could get memories from doing this. She missed her father a lot,
Noelle cried silently as she went back to her house." Poor Nathan," She sob as she walk through the passage that led to the room he's locked up. He has been locked up in a room like a beast so he doesn't attack anyone. She stopped at the door, holding back her tears before she went in. She went inside and saw him looking at the window, like he was going to break it, Nathan growled at her as soon as she entered the room. She burst into more tears seeing her brother who adores her a lot does not recognise her anymore. "I'm sorry, I tried talking to her but she still does not want you. I'm so sorry, this is all I can do for you Nathan." She cried. She ran out of the room into her bedroom. She fell on the bed soaking the sheets with her tears. If only she could find someone else for her brother, he won't become a rogue forever. This was her wish before falling asleep. ******** Casey went to check on Riella after Noelle left. She found Riella sitting on the bed in her room and
A FEW MINUTES EARLIER Riella followed the guard to the room. They got there before Noelle braced herself to go confront stefan. The guard moved back in fear as he saw that the chain used to tie him down has been broken. Riella saw how red his eyes were, she sensed his anger. "Don't move close to him miss, just stay here and talk to him." The guard warned her. "What's going to happen if I do? I can't help him if I don't move closer to him." Riella protested. "I know but this is his most dangerous state. He has no control over himself, he could kill anyone without recognising them. Please stay back a little bit." The guard explained. “Staying back will not help solve anything. He needs my help as fast as I can. I can't disappoint his sister who I already promised. Besides, this is my chance to get rid of them.” She thought. The guard thought she has listened to him. Instead, she ignored his words and moved closer to him. "Miss! No, don't do that!" But Riella already went c
6" I hope he will be okay, Darn it! I feel like my chest is about to burst from guilt. " Riella told herself with a pout as soon as she walked out of the Mansion.Then she looked at the huge house once again and let out a sigh. " I just hope he doesn't run wild again because of me, he's a strong wolf after all." She added with a short smile." I can't show myself to him after this--" She cut short by the sound of an ambulance , in a high speed into the premises. " What is an ambulance doing here? Who died? " She asked no one in particular as she stare perplexed.Then not long after, a stretcher was pulled out from the house with a man familiar to Riella on it, blood covered most visible part of his body.She fixed her gaze on the stretcher and her eyes went wide, " Nathan? " She ran to the scene to confirm her thoughts and it was indeed, Nathan, in his own pool of blood.She gasped and shook her head, " He-he was fine when I left him, what the hell happened here! " She asked as tear
