It's Leonid, I know, he was coming down but I was thinking, with the arrival of this man, he should have stayed back to listen to whatever his father and the man were going to discuss but his right here, in front of me, his face is far from pleasant, he is mad, I could feel it from his voice and countenance.
"You should calm down, I know we could save Aida, we will bring her back, all we need do is mobilize the warriors, they will think twice before trying to attack the pack and with you, as the zeta, you will be victorious."
"Yes, we will go to war, yes war against the Shade Grey Pack but I wouldn't lead the warriors."
This can't be the truth? There is no one as strong as him, no one in the entire pack that could lead the warriors except the Zeta, he is the pack General, he leads every war and trains new warriors, so this is coming as a shock to me, as I stared in his gloomy face.
"Come on, I need to alert the other warriors, we are going to war."
Taking a deep breath, I walked behind him as he made his way into the army camp, all eyes were on the Alpha who was not strong enough, every breath of his, seem like he was going to drop dead, poor thing, he must have gone through hell, seeing his pack invaded and his people slaughtered like they were nothing and his precious daughter taking away and he can't do anything, since he is too old to fight.
Father smiled at me, it's my first time going to war since I joined the army, what does my father care, everything in his head is my younger sister, Kira, she was all he could think of and her mother was the one, he loves not my mother that is, his mate.
All soldiers were now gathered, and then Dad announced that the Alpha's second son would be joining us. Everyone roared, I am sure most of them had no idea that the alpha had another son, I looked at Leonid, I was his best friend, but he never told me about his brother, not even for once making mention of it. The armies all kept quiet, waiting for the alpha other sons to enter. "While we wait for Stefan, the Alpha's second son, what we should know is, that defending our pack, is the most important thing and that is what we must do."
"Our Target should be on the alpha, an army without the alpha is as good as dead, so we will have to kill the alpha during the war, after all, he is the one that has violated our woman and kidnapped our love once and our princess, Aida."
We all listen to the beta who happens to be my dad, as he gives instructions on how the team will lead the war, this is not the shocking news but the words he said after.
"This will serve as a great means to solve the conundrum of who should be the next alpha, yes, whoever kills the alpha of the Shade grey pack will ascend the throne of Shadow Moon Pack."
Leonid's face darkens and watching his facial expressions, I know that he is not happy with the turnout of the event. Then again, my heart raced what if Leonid didn't become the alpha, and his brother became the alpha?
What if he is cold and a demon like Shade Grey pack alpha? What If I don't like him? What if he is ugly? Idiot, what is your business with this look? I told myself as I decided to look to where everyone's gaze was fixed on, the door, yes, the door that led to the entrance.
My heart hammer as I saw him walk through that door, he was tall, with broad shoulders, with his blonde hair falling on his shoulder, that is all I could get for now but I will admit, I loved the little I could see, yes, I don't care, if he is someone mate, even if he had already have a wife or concubine, my heart just won't let me rest, I watch him stand close to the Alpha and the rest of the things said fall on my deaf ear because I was admiring him and the next words are.
"Hail Shadow moon!!!"
"Hail Shadow moon!!!"
"Hail Shadow moon!!!"
"It's wartime, and victory should be ours." As all warriors marched steadily into the enemy territory, fully armed being led by Stefan and Leonid, as our horse invaded those bastards' pack, we were going to take them unaware as they did us.
His sword was now covered with blood, I watched as he fought like a blood-tasting man, come to think of it, he was running fast, his speed was much, and he wasn't using a horse. As he swung his sword, he didn't miss his aim, wherever his foot met, is like he is going to curse earthquake, it was like he is been possessed by something supernatural because that wasn't ordinary, I could feel he was no longer in control of himself, something supernatural had consumed him.
With the way he fights, is like he has a mission, which is to make the alpha of Shade grey, remember the people he disrespects, a long-lasting mark, a story to be told from generation to generation, the sight of him will not be forgotten.
He was going to cover their ground with blood and the head of their alpha was going to be his victory, not even the throne, he had no business with the throne, last night, Dad did tell I and my sister, the reason he left, he left because his grandmother was banished for a crime she knows nothing of, this wasn't the first time, our pack was attacked, he was just six years old when the pack was attack and his grandmother was the one who saves him and his brother but couldn't say their youngest brother but at the end, she was blamed as the one who planned the coup, so she was punished, and he decided to go with her.
I thought Leonid was the best warrior and the zeta that every pack could ever imagine but right here, I will admit, Stefan is the best and Leonid comes second. "Gosh! The moon goddess must love this man."
He is tall, handsome, and masculine. Dad said he hadn't found his mate but he is always seen with a girl, even though he is far from their pack the alpha did keep a complete watch on his son, the young prince, is a day younger than his first prince, prince Leonid, they were from different women, one his mate and a wolf and the another his love and a magician, which happens to be Stefan's mother.
He was good with his swear, better in his fist and I am sure his wolf nature will be furious.
I wish I could meet his wolf. Stupid me, how could I meet his wolf when I too, haven't shifted for once in my miserable life, I am sure, I can't stand his wolf.
"Hey, watch it."
"Hey watch it." He screamed as he sped towards me, then pulled me to duck from the arrow thrown at me, with one swift of his sword, the enemy soldier's head was dancing on the floor.My mouth dropped open, seeing how stupid I was, admiring him instead of fighting."Close your mouth and fight, instead of being a nuisance."He said as he pulled from me and I watched as he swift his sword again, making the intestines of another fall out from his tummy.The shock was written all over my face."Fight idiot." He yelled at me, for the second time, he had called me useless, but what in God's name is wrong with me, how could I forget what brought me here and fantasize about a man's handsomeness?Another warrior charged towards him in anger but was too slow and he missed Stefan, the Swift of his caused the man to become armless, right now was in the middle of the warriors he was fighting like mad, with one hand holding his sword and the other spea
Everyone looks in Surprise, history has repeated itself, and the young prince becomes an alpha instead of the first prince. "My son, our son, killed the alpha, you saw the proof yourself, right in his hand." For some reason, Leonid felt he didn't deserve the throne because Stefan had commanded him to finish the alpha of Shade Grey but his mother had always wanted him to be the Alpha, the old Luna was the one advocating for his son, she treated him more like an adult even when he was a boy, so he could fit into the position of being a king, an alpha king. He has to be king and only him. "The merit of a king isn't evaluated by the number of enemies he had killed but by the number of people he had saved, Stefan brought back his sister's safe home and saved many soldiers while fighting." "It's war, in war, they are made to kill people and not save people." Uncle Bob, take it from there, he is the old alpha's elder brother, he was supposed to be alpha but the late alpha didn't give hi
Prince Leonid, your uncle sent for you. The voice of the guard interrupts our kiss. "Go on, I will be behind you." He commanded the guard and then looked at me, I felt so shy and stupid at the same time, the kiss felt so unholy, and wish it didn't happen, it was my first, I expected to have all those butterflies and sparkling of the heart, I heard people talk about their first kiss been memorable but right this minute, I didn't feel any of that. "You should go home, I will talk to you later, I need to see my uncle." I only nodded, cause I couldn't bring myself to look at him, talk more to tell him, to walk me through the woods till I get to a brighter place. After all, I was scared and it was late, he made his way to the royal castle while I made my way to my home. On my way, I noticed that someone was following me and I knew it wasn't after I left Leonid that the person, or whoever was he, started watching me, when Leonid kissed me, I also noticed that I was been watched. I in
"Fuck!!! He didn't even tell me, his name." I cursed as he left without a word to me. He left me wondering who he could be, I have never seen any wolf as handsome and fearless as him, not even a scratch from that idiot to him. Still in my thoughts, I heard a wolf howl, and fear gripped me, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, I wouldn't know if it was going to come back when my savior was gone. "Scary cat, where are you coming from?" That was Kira's annoying voice, no words came out because I was panting badly and I didn't have the strength for her drama. "The alpha in waiting was here, dad wanted to give him documents about the pack, so he was here, you missed him." "I don't want to see him." "You don't want to see him because you were a liability?" My fist clenched, did he have to bring what happened in the war down here to blab about it to this stupid sister of mine? "Sister, I thought you were good in war but I just found out that, you are good at nothing, a good-for-not
"What do you want?" "Interesting, like you have anything to offer me." He said chewing on his fruits. "Didn't your boyfriend know the wood is too dangerous to leave a weakling like you to walk alone?" "I am not a weakling?" I screamed at his face, he let out a soft chuckle. "Truly? Let's see how brave you are." He snapped his finger and the next thing, I could hear a wolf howling, I ran into his arms without thinking twice and he tittered, I pushed him in anger as I freed myself from him. "Stupid idiots!!!""Who among us is the stupid idiot?" He quizzed as he came closer to me and pinned me to the wood, his beautiful eyes drowned me, and I didn't want to look away but he let go of me all of a sudden like I was some leper, he distanced himself from me. "Why are you going home alone?" He asked, in a cool but hoarse voice, I had no idea what to answer him when he was close, I was scared of him, when he was far away, he caught my fancy, the one man, I would want to love me and when he
"Fiona!!!""Oh no, my dad, you have to leave, I will see you tomorrow after the ball." "Wait, aren't you coming to the ball? He asked holding my hand.""No, I am not coming, you should know the ball is never my thing, it's only going to remind me of my failure, so I will let this pass." "Please, just because of me, I have something to tell you." "Okay, I will, and it better be something nice." "Fiona!!!" "Go on, I need to get inside through the window before dad pushes the door." He nodded as he turned to leave, I climbed through the window, and as I lay on the bed, pretending to be sleeping, my head was buried in the bed. "Good, she is sleeping, I thought she had gone out again." Those were his words and the door cracked open again and closed as he walked out of the room. I sighed in relief, then pulled the duvet, and rushed to my wardrobe, to get what I would wear to the ball tomorrow. The next morning, I helped Kira fix herself, she looked all sheen, Kira is beautiful, and a
"The alpha's bride is no other person than my daughter." Father's words came up, as everyone roared and I could see Kira, she is beautiful, I know he will fancy her and I watched as Hazel withdrew her hand from Stefan, poor thing, I could imagine the pain she is going through, that pain that could crush a girl soul for life, how could he ever think of hurting her like that, such an idiot, why bring her here, when he knows he is not going to pick her. "Come on, you've heard the verdict, so let's go." I pulled Leonid's hand but my dad's words stopped me. "Fiona Oliver!!!" Leonid looked at me, and as he withdrew his hand, the shock was written over my face, he can't be me, I turned as I watched him grin wickedly. "Fuck you, I don't want to be your bride, I am not your mate, beast." I screamed in frustration, and then I remembered that no she-wolf had the right to question the decision of the Alpha, talk more of cursing and rejecting him openly, and death was the penalty, dad looked at
"Why aren't you sleeping?""I was... your Highness, I am...""Stefan, you should call me that." He corrected. "Stefan!!!" I repeated more in a whisper. "Good, get some rest, it's been a long day and are you hurt, you could go to the medical center tomorrow to get checked." I only shake my head to indicate that I am perfect, I don't know why he is looking at me like that but all I know is that I am no longer on the bed, but on the couch, fear was written all over me. He looked at me, I could tell, he could see how scared I was, but would he blame me, if I was scared, compared to all the things he had done to me, during those periods he arrived at the pack and the war he was fighting, like a demon, and from what I have gathered from Leonid this passed days, their father the old alpha is scared of him, he only asked that he returns just to save the situation. Leonid said he is different, different from the family, just maybe, the moon goddess knows the reason she created him that way.
