The Alpha's Curse Chapter 1: Prologue
The night of the annual Sacrifice. As the Alpha's daughter, Waverly Scott understood the procedure and the importance of the Sacrifice: to appease the Crimson Wolf in the hopes that their chosen member would become his Luna. However, it didn't stop her emotions from running high each time it came close to the day, fearing that her pack may be next. As her father said, it was their obligation to participate in the Sacrifice, but he never gave a clear reason as to why. The day came and passed every year, with the members of the elected pack wondering if the woman they choose would return or not. So far, no one has. "I think that it's because the Crimson Wolf kills the pack for not sending him his mate!" shouted a boy excitedly while balancing on top of a rock. His hair was tousled from the light evening breeze that moved through the large open area of their small farming town. "I heard he's a Wild – y'know, the kind that can't tell who's who when they're in wolf form!" said a s
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 2: An Unplanned Promise
By the time Waverly, Reina and Finn reached the eastern hill, the rest of the pack had already assembled in front of the wooden bench outside of Waverly's farmhouse. The moon had replaced the sun and it now lit up her father's face as he stood facing the pack. His hair was slightly disheveled and he pushed it back with his hand, showcasing the small pieces of grey that were starting to display. Waverly, Finn and Reina took their places within the group and watched as her father began his speech."Most of you by now know the reason I have brought you here tonight." Waverly observed as her mother, Aviana, stood at her husband's side. She had her hands clasped together in front of her, a trait she only exposed when she had to seem strong for her fellow members during times of distress. However, Waverly could notice them shaking ever so slightly. "As everyone is aware, tonight is the annual Sacrifice and as per tradition, it is uncommon for the chosen pack to be aware of their posit
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 3: The Initial Meeting
"Are you insane?!" Finn shouted. The static sensation that clouded Waverly's brain moments ago subsided and once the weight of what she had just done set in, she was left with the overwhelming sense of immobilizing fear. Everyone was staring at her, utterly shocked. Her father stepped forward and the pack made room as he approached his daughter. He placed his hands on her shoulders and Waverly saw her own facial features staring back at her, almost an exact copy. "Are you sure?" he asked, calmly. Waverly looked at Finn, who gaped at her with a mixture of anger and distress, and her mother, who's strong demeanour remained, despite her terror-stricken gaze. It felt like Waverly had no control over herself. She gulped and slowly nodded her head, disregarding the horror that screamed inside of her."So it is." Her father gave her a reassuring smile, mixed with both pride and worry. He turned towards the crowd once more and spoke in a louder voice. "Waverly will take the place of
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 4: Trinity Mountains
The walk towards the mountains was eerily silent; the only sound that could be heard were the rocks under their shoes that crunched with each step. Night had passed and transformed into dawn, with the sky changing colours rapidly, from deep blue, to red, then pink and orange. The sun peeked over the eastern horizon, bringing with it a new day. From the minute Waverly realized who this man was, she was absorbed in her own thoughts. What was he thinking? He was… composed…so familiar with the procedure. I suppose after a decade, you would be. However, one question remained prominent in her mind: would he be the one to kill her? A shiver passed through her body as they reached the vast, open field. At the bottom of the path sat an old-style 1960s car, coated in a dark grey paint. "We're driving?" Waverly asked, trying to mask her surprise. "You thought we were walking to Trinity Mountains?" he rebuked, with a hint of annoyance. "I mean, no…I assumed we'd run." The Crimson Wol
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 5: Whispers
Waverly sat on the floor of the empty bedroom and stared out into the lively town below her. Wolves and humans alike moved ahead with their day; a short, yet well-kept man sat on his lawn mower and began trimming his slightly overgrown lawn while a woman a few houses down called to her children, who were racing down the street in wolf formation. Two days had passed since her arrival to Trinity Mountains and she hadn't seen a single person besides the people that came in every so often to clean her room and bring her meals. Questions turned over in her head: how did he expect to discover if they were mates if he never let her out? Maybe that was the point; maybe he didn't want to test their bond. She remained motionless, glancing out the window, as the sound of the door clicked open for the first time that day. As Waverly watched the village below, a person dressed in all black with an apron, who Waverly had come to know was a servant, entered. A whoosh from behind her created a n
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 6: The Price of Freedom
The following morning, Waverly awoke to the sunlight blaring into her eyes while Felicity opened the large purple curtains that were covering the window. "Good morning," Felicity softly spoke as she bent over and opened the bottom glass pane. The birds that rested on the ledge below the window whistled back and forth, indicating another beautiful sunrise. Waverly sat up in her bed, squinting at the bright haze shining through. She rubbed her eyes and stretched. Felicity peered out at the sky above. "The clouds are still moving pretty fast out there." Waverly's eyes began to gradually come into focus and she noticed her morning breakfast sitting on the single table: eggs and bacon. The smell filled the room, causing Waverly's stomach to growl. Felicity perceived Waverly's stare and brought the tray to her. "Our Alpha thought it would be nice for you to have a morning meal that isn't toast and oatmeal." She chuckled and set the platter down on Waverly's lap. Waverly eyed the
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 7: The Visitor
Waverly immediately sat up in her bed, unsure of what she had just heard. Free? There was no way. The Crimson Wolf kept his watch on her, his distinct blue and black eyes examining her as if he was trying to read her thoughts. Waverly hesitated before stretching her arm out to touch the box. She ran her fingers along the carved indentations, admiring the beautiful lined artwork that decorated its exterior. What could he possibly mean by 'free'? Why would he bring her here, lock her in a room and then bring her a stunning pile of jewels, to just let her go? Did he feel guilty? Apologetic? No, he was the Crimson Wolf, he didn't feel any of those things. This had to be some sort of test. But yet, when she looked at him, she saw the disposition of a child while he continued to view the box. Waverly shut the lid and pushed the container back towards him. "Thank you," she stated intently. "But I can't accept it." The Crimson Wolf's eyes widened as he stared at her. "What do you mean
The Alpha's Curse Chapter 8: Dinner for Two
"What do you mean, I'll die?" Waverly asked, entirely distraught, her fearless nature shrinking. So many information had come at her in the matter of minutes, she had no method of processing it all. "You'll die. Anyone who remains by Sawyer's side or who is present on the evening of the Lunar Eclipse, will face the same fate as him." Waverly looked at Christopher, astonished. The faces of her parents, Finn, Isadore and Reina flashed by in her memory and all she could think of was the box sitting on the table by the window. If what Sawyer said was true, then that was her ticket to freedom. She turned her gaze from the box to her companion."How do I know I can believe your word?" Christopher nodded in agreement. "You're absolutely right, you can't entirely. But I did bring you that sketchbook and I think being the Beta should give me enough credit, don't you?" He was Sawyer's Beta? That would explain how he knew so much. Still, Waverly was reserved. "And you're willing to out
