Hercules and his beta had arrived in Alpha Jeremy’s pack about an hour after troops arrived. His gamma ,Alexandros had made sure that the Alpha's room was squeaky and to his standards. Jeremiah has been happy to see that Alpha Hercules was here. He was a great admirer of the Alpha even though he never directly said it and he has many fans of his own. Jeremiah had greeted the Alpha immediately he saw him entering his territory. And he had expressed how incredibly happy he was that the man was here. His excitement however was short-lived when Alpha Hercules stated that he wasn't planning to stay long.‘ but I must insist on ,Alpha. You are my guest here and I have planned out no less than 3 days for you to be here. I would be honored if you stayed a little more.’’ Hercules hated repeating himself over and over again. But he was in the presence of another Alpha nonetheless in his territory. He smiled at the man encouragingly.“ I understand the hurtful stop, believe me I would have st
Back at Alpha Hercules's Pack, It's been a whole day and many hours since Audrey went missing from the servant Quarters. They'd seen her walking with the Alpha, and had waited for her to return in the quarters, Twice the Alpha's mother had returned to ask if she was back and had gotten a no as a response. All the task given to her was left just like that and none of it had been touched. The Alpha's Mother wasn't going to be this patient. Morning is approaching and if she didn't see her , she'll definitely go in search of her. Perhaps, she's special to the Alpha? She had wondered and she's determined to find out how special she was , that the Alpha has to take her away from the servant Quarters, stopping her from doing the assigned work. 'Are you still bothered about the new girl?' Joseph questioned his wife. He had woken up some hours ago to ease himself and his wife was lying next to him but not sleeping. She had talked to him earlier that day about the girl and the fact that she
Things were gradually going back to normal in AirPack. The Alpha had returned two days later after his stay with Alpha Jeremy, through out the two day he spent over there, he hadn't quite welcomed the idea of Jeremy being Mated to a human. As always, he had seen Jeremy as a weak man who couldn't take responsibility, and how pathetic had the pack member's become to accept a human as their Queen .but at the end, Alpha Hercules is in no position to do anything in Jeremy's pack. All he had wanted was just to get done with what brought him to the pack and go back to his own pack. Alpha Hercules had as well tried his possible best not to think about his Mate. Someone he had felt pity for leaving her in that room with no orders of her being fed , But he pushed himself back not to think about it. She's a slave and might have gone through something similar, this one shouldn't be any much different. Returning to his pack, all he had wanted to do was to go into his room and see his Mate. But
Martin walked back in, together with Alexandros, as they dragged the wolf to the podium. He looked out of strength, suggesting that they must have beaten him up. I didn't like that. That wasn't the way to welcome a guest.As they brought him to my feet, I raised my left hand and they dropped him there. I didn't want to waste any time either. I had to get done with it very quickly."What are you called, youngling?" I asked, seeing he was quite young; probably less than 25 years old. "Justice, Sir." He answered."Don't call me Sir. You can call me Alpha." I held his head and turned to the crowd who watched expectantly to see what I had to say."This man here has broken one of our most sacred rules. He stepped his feet in our territory, without due permission. What do we do to such people?""Away with them!" They all chorused. Yet, it was clear that they didn't want him dead. I could see it in their eyes. I didn't need Lana with me to confirm it. It was written all over them."I'm sorry
ALPHA HERCULES The parlour echoed the loud sound of silence as I sat on my throne thinking about the next step to take. Martin was there too. Yet, he dared not interrupt my thoughts. I saw the face of the man I had just taken his life. I had taken lots of lives but somehow, this felt different. I couldn't take my mind off his eyes; those gloomy eyes of his, that called out for mercy through his lips. I could hear his voice ringing in my head and I knew I could have stopped myself from killing him. What I wasn't sure of was if it was the best decision to take his life. I wasn't to be blamed for everything though. I barely had time to think.I was left with two choices that didn't even seem like choices at all. I either had to spare him and look weak or kill him and look strong. I chose the latter. I had to be strong for my people. Yet, if only I had counsel on how to achieve both; I'd have appreciated it.The last time I got good counsel was when my sister was around. It wasn't like
AUDREY'S POVMornings were my worst moments. I dreaded them so badly and wished they never came. If only wishes were horses. I hoped this one was going to be better than the others; slightly better, even. It did look like it. There was a certain excitement on the face of the sun as it shined its light so brightly on my face, reminding me that I didn't shut my window the previous night. It was quite hot but I was thankful for it. As harsh as the sun was, it was nothing compared to the powerful hands and legs of Layla, the newest head Supervisor of all the servants in the Alpha's palace.When the Queen mother had announced about her having to take care of us, I felt she was very nice. She had very pretty black hair that wasn't so long and her very white teeth stood out when she smiled at me. I thought it was always like that. I should have known better.I liked her at that time. She looked like she was going to be very nice. She was so pretty; too pretty to ever be mean to anyone. That
It was already 6:30 am, and I had to be in the kitchen by 6:45 am, so I had no time to have a bath. I just went to the little water container very close to the bathroom and I took some water from it with a small, yellow bowl, just on top of the container, with which I washed my face as quickly as I could. On getting to the kitchen, I saw that it was exactly 6:45 am. Layla was nowhere to be found and it was unlike her. She was never one to be late, so I guessed something was up. The other servants talked amongst themselves and laughed rather loudly. I didn't join in. I couldn't. I didn't want to risk Layla's anger and I wasn't friends with everyone so it was pretty easy.I quickly went to the sink and began to sort out the plates so I could wash them. I couldn't find the soap so I looked around to see the blonde who did the dishes the previous night."What's going on here?"Everyone turned around on hearing that voice. What seemed like a marketplace immediately became as silent as a g
ALPHA HERCULES"Martin, have you heard from Alexandros since today?"It had been a few weeks since I took care of the wolf who stepped foot in my territory, albeit unknowingly as he said. I was over it. Somehow, I did regret feeling guilty about it. He wasn't blind. He was a wolf with super sight. Surely, he was too careless to have neglected something as important as that. He probably didn't know it'll have grave consequences; the kind that took people to their early graves, just like him.Sometimes, I wished that people had two lives. Mostly, when I taught people the appropriate lessons that they needed to learn, they weren't able to make amends because they were dead. If only there was a way to bring them back to life, perhaps, they'd have seen just how helpful I am to them. If only…"No, my Alpha, I haven't," he replied. "I did hear that he was with some of the guards at the borders, giving them some much-needed training so they will be more efficient in capturing the wolves that
