Once Rejected, Twice Accepted A test.
Amanda“With all due respect, Alpha, it's a capital No!” Alex barked the last word out.I could see the anger in his words, the anger in his eyes when he spoke. Personally, he knew everything that had happened to me when I was still with Zane and it was his anger that reflected in every of his words he spoke. I for one knew that he would never allow this to happen because he knew how evil Zane could be and if this fell on his hands, he could bring total destruction to the kingdom.Several murmurs of agreement rang out while others remained silent. With Alex being one of the most vocal members of the pack, it wasn’t a surprise that he easily garnered support from those present.“Going by the pack’s history and the Alpha in charge, it's safe to say that they aren’t deserving of the Crystal heart. Alpha Zane has been known to be a heartless, cruel and callous man who doesn’t care about his people. I am not in support of this, Alpha.” He finished.I nodded, silently thanking him for his c

Zane.Anger, fear, and shock radiated through me as I walked around mindlessly. I didn’t even know what to think of as I stared at some of the maids doing their jobs. There were times when I had wished that I would be the greatest Alpha to ever live but apparently, that wasn’t going to be possible because my enemies were at work and if there was one thing I knew, it was that they would never see me rise to become that. They had chosen this specific day and time to strike, knowing that my forces were at the weakest at this point.It wasn’t fair but when it came to the way we lived, life wasn’t fair at all. You either win some or you lose some and if there is one thing I wouldn't be doing, it was losing. I was going to make sure I got them, every single last one of them that even thought they could destroy everything I had worked so hard to build. Never, I was never going to allow that.“Alpha.” A voice interrupted my thoughts.I turned toward the direction of the voice to see that it w
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted Deciding time.
AmandaAn hour earlier.As I paced back and forth within the pack house, my mind racing with ideas on how to deal with the ever-challenging Alpha Zane, I turned to my Beta, Alex. With a sigh, I turned to him, frustration evident in my voice. "We need to do something about Zane. I hate that he has this demand above us and I'm worried about the pack."Alex leaned back in his chair, a thoughtful expression crossing his face. "I've been thinking about that too, Amanda. Maybe it's time we put our heads together and come up with a plan."I nodded eagerly, grateful for his support. "What do you suggest? We can't just confront him directly. That never ends well."A mischievous glint appeared in Alex's eyes, and he flashed me a sly grin. "What if we test him, just like you said but with a different method? See if he's truly changed his ways?"I raised an eyebrow, intrigued by his suggestion. "Go on.""Well," Alex began, tapping his fingers on the desk as he organized his thoughts. "What if we
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted Time is running out.
ZaneTime was running out, that was all I could say. Things were becoming tighter and tougher with every day that passed and soon, I knew that if things continued this way, I would have no power over my own pack. The enemies were advancing and soon, they would take over everything. It was only a matter of time, and I needed to act fast. At this point, I didn't even care about the test that Amanda wanted to put me through. I was fully ready to do it if it meant saving my pack.If there was one thing I hated, it was to lose the respect of my pack members simply because I couldn't take care of them. I would become a total pushover, an insult. And if there was one thing I hated more than every other thing, it was the fact that I wouldn't be able to have any say in the affairs of my pack.“What has got you so tense?” Tiana asked, waddling in.One could hardly tell if she was pregnant or not but I knew she wasn’t. For years, we have been trying for a child but it just wasn’t working. I did
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted A report.
Amanda “Alpha,” one of my guards said, walking into my chambers.I looked up from the scroll I had received from my daughter, her scrawny handwriting making me smile. I couldn’t deny the fact that I had missed her terribly and I couldn't wait for all these to be done so I could go back to her and hug her.“Yes?” I said, placing down the scroll.“This is just a report. Sarah has successfully infiltrated the Blue Heart Pack.” He declared.“Oh wow, that fast? That’s good news.” “Yes Alpha, and I am assured that she would do excellently well because she knows what is at stake.”“Thank you for your words. What is your name?”I always made it a duty to know the names of my subjects. Knowing their names helped me to have a relationship with them and not just the Alpha-guard relationship. I believed in drawing them closer because it was through this that I could even gain their trust all the more.“Raphael, Alpha. My name is Raphael.” He smiled.I could see that he was happy. No doubt, he h
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted The source of the attack.
Amanda“Any news on Sarah yet?” I asked.It's been almost a week since we sent her to the Blue Heart Pack and we haven’t heard anything from her yet. I was beginning to get worried because I didn't know if she was alive and well and there was no way of finding out without exposing ourselves and the plans we have already set in motion.“You look worried.”I turned toward the direction of the voice and realized that it was Alex. There was also a worried look in his eyes because of the way I looked also. My plan wasn’t to have him worried but I couldn't help but feel that especially since we had sent that poor girl into the lion’s den. If anything were to ever happen to her, I would never be able to forgive myself because I had willingly allowed her to go into it.“Is it about Sarah?” He asked.I nodded, my mouth too heavy to say what I had in mind. Everything was getting so tense up that I didn't even know where to put a finger and what to even think of. I hated the fact that I was this
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted Doubts.
Amanda As I strode alongside Beta Alex and the guard, my anticipation and tension rose with each step. Marcus, the intruder who had dared to infiltrate our pack, stood at the end of our path. I could sense Alex's silent fury emanating from his presence beside me, a fierce loyalty to our pack evident in every line of his posture.“You need to calm down, Alex,” I muttered.When we finally reached Marcus, my strides faltered, and I came to an abrupt halt. He stood before us, a vision of masculine beauty that momentarily took my breath away. His presence was commanding, his features chiseled and intense, and for a fleeting moment, I found myself captivated by him.But then reality snapped back into focus, and I reminded myself of the threat he posed. I couldn't afford to be swayed by his appearance, no matter how striking it may be. Turning my attention away from Marcus, I glanced at Alex, noticing the tightness in his jaw and the glint of jealousy in his eyes. His loyalty to me and our
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted It is I.
AmandaWalking back into the house, my mind raced with different possibilities, things that Marcus could do if he wielded so much power such as this. I had no doubt that he was going to carry out his threat because if there was one thing I knew about people like him, it was that they didn’t bluff. They knew the risks attached to whatever it was they wanted to do and they didn’t care whose ox is gored, especially when it came to doing exactly what they said they would do.It was scary thinking about it but at the same time, this just gave us an advantage because for one, we knew where the threat was going to come from and we could be adequately prepared and secondly, we knew what we must do. Marcus wasn’t going to ruin all the plans I had prepared, I would rather die than allow him to do that.“I don’t think you should beat yourself over someone as inconsequential as Marcus,” Alex said.On some days such as this, I wished I could just slap the living daylights out of him because of his
