“Don't touch me!” I barked. They didn't heed to my words as they threw me into the room. One of the guards stared me in the face and shoved me harder than expected. I landed in my butt.

“Owwww” I yelped.

“Stay here and don't come out!” He growled.

The moment they left me alone in the room, I began to pace. I felt like a butterfly put in a bottle.

Just then I opened my hands and there was crumbled up pain in it. I arched an eyebrow. What was this? I didn't recall having to get a paper on my way here.

Slowly I unwrapped thr crumbled mess and began to read.

And I did that countless times, till my eyes became blurry. It read.

Meet me at the water fall tonight, if you want to get out of here alive.

I froze. What was this? Was it that guard that shoved me?

I read it again.

The more I read, the more anxious I became. A part of me wanted to meet him.

“I’m sorry your highness, I didn’t mean to do that” she begged. I raised a hand.

“Its okay” she nodded. She was packing

    The music was soft, slow glowing around as I watched people walk around me like a furniture. I was on attendance to this event because Maximus had upgraded me from a maid to a Luna in waiting. The jealousy I have received in just few minutes of arrival, were humongous to count. Everywhere I looked, there was someone glatong my way. Maximus had thrown a ball in celebration of his success in the siege of the Femwood pack. I stood by watching the banished lunas comfortable in the midst of their enemies. They engaged I. Silly conversation on which guard from the blue moon pack was the most handsome. Spine less women. While they stay and smile like buffoons, maids were in the back slaving all through. Disgust filled my belly and I was this close to vomit. As I sipped on my drink, I felt some sort of unease all over me. I knew someone was looking at me. I could see them the lady at 6’oclock with ugly looking wig. The woman at the door with a hideous make you to cover her insecurities. An

    Pacing the end of the hall I looked up to the VIP section. Your Highness was yet to come out. I was sure the party was over but she was nowhere to be found. Even maximus and seven Hawkins had left the venue but I couldn't find her. Was she found? Overwhelmed with worry I began to go up the VIP section. “hey you! “Someone yelled behind me. I froze but I kept going. I just wanted to reach the end of the VIP section. I just wanted to know if anyone was still up there. I hoped she had not been killed or something. “are you hard of hearing! I said stop! “The voice was harsher and closer. I immediately stopped. “turn around “the voice behind me ordered. I took in a deep breath and slowly turned. “Marcus?”It was the chief of the bodyguards. I breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness it was him. This will be easy to get out of. “Hey chief” I laughed nervously. “What are you doing up here?” His eyes roamed the room behind me. I looked down and sighed. “ Is anything wrong?” he

    “I can’t believe this” I muttered as tears began to pool in my eyes. He sighed and looked away. Marcus was hurt when I told him Amelia had died. I apologized fot not coming to the meeting because I was too hurt. Too hurt to think about anything other than my pain. I had lost a friend. And no one was going to help us. “I wonder why Alpha Knox didn't come?” I said. “you are his mate. He should be running in now” he said turning back to stare at me. I couldn’t hold it all in as I sobbed quietly. No one cares about me. Even the f*e that did either died or are suffering. I thought of Lilith. I might never get to meet her again. Few minutes passed and when my cries had been reduced to just sniffs, he cleared his throat. “There’s more bad news?’ I glared at him and he nodded. “Then out with it” I snapped. The moment I did, I felt worse. This man was not to blame for anything but I felt angry. Enough with the pain. “I’m sorry” I muttered but he stopped me with a wave of his hands “It’s

    The breeze blew steadily through the window and caused the room to be quite chilly. I shivered in reaction. Staring do you I could goose pimples all over my body. I groaned and ran a hand over my hair. I hated being sick. The feeling of inadequacy and less strength scared the hell out of me. How would I control and command the pack if I lay confined in a room. On a bed. With all my strength, I managed to sit up. My breathing was ragged as I tried to steady myself. I sat on the edge of the bed, my head in my hands. I could feel my skin burning like fire was licking at my insides. Every muscle ached, like I had gone ten rounds in a fight I didn’t remember. Even thr thought of laying back on the bed. The strength to do that. It hurt so much. A layer of sweat slicked my skin, my breathing shallow. My wolf stirred restlessly, uneasy. Something was wrong. Why was I sick suddenly? Was it what I ate? I hadn't eaten much since I got back with Arya. "Your highness" Vok ‘voice cu

    “We are ready your Highness!” Vok announced and I nodded. I grabbed my silver bullet and loaded the gun. This was the deadliest silver in the whole of the werewolf Kingdom. “Is everything set “I asked Vok. He nodded.” Yes Your Highness” “Let's go” I ordered. Just before I could take one step forward, I felt a sharp pain in my head and I flinched. Oh no, what was it now? Vow turned around. Surprised that I did not follow him. He walked back. “Are you alright your highness?” he asked staring into my eyes. I nodded. “Yes yes, let's go” I forced my eyes open and began to walk despite the weakness engulfing my body. ******************************************************** The car revved up to a start and the driver drove off. I looked out that window. Satisfied that all my men were with me. If I couldn't fight, I could instruct them on what to do. Then I sighed. We were running out of time. I could feel it. It was like an invisible cord pulling me forward, because of

    I jolted up from sleep, panting like one that had run a race. Sweat gleamed all over my skin. I sat up properly. What sort of dream was that? Why did Knox get to be victorious? He should be dead from that poison. He shouldn’t have reached the Fanwood. Just then there was a banging sound coming from my door. I arched an eyebrow. Who was that by this time of the night? The knocking continued. “Xander!” I yelled. I didn’t hear him come in and the knocking persisted. “Ughh!!” I used the pillow to cover my ears and but it didn’t make it any better. I knew that the only way I would get this solved is if I go open the door myself. Finally I was able to pull myself from the bed and walked to the door. “Just let me see the idiotic that is disturbing my sleep” I said wit gritted teeth as I marched to the door. The knock came again. More impatient and louder. “I ‘m coming!” I whispered harshly. Finally I opened the door. It was a maid. “Are you crazy? Youcan” t around banging on d

    I flung my eyes open immediately I heard the noise. I stood up to find out that it was a phone ringing. I turned to find out that it was my phone. I was surprised to find out that it was unscathed after what I had been through. The fever was over and I felt much better. “Your highness” I turned around to find Vok, the pack Doctor and Madam Lafayette in my room. “I am not dying yet” I said as I sat up. “But you could have” Madam Lafayette retorted. “Its good thing your beta brought you in, when he did” the pack doctor said. “Alright, thank you all” I replied. “So what’s next? I haven’t rescued them? Should we all sit back and fold our hands? I asked. “Don’t you get it your highness” she said. I raised my hands. “Okay okay what’s next?” Madam Lafayette turned to the pack doctor. “You may leave” He nodded. “Very well your highnesses” he bowed and worked away. “I don’t trust anyone” she said, then she turned to us. “The plan is to go save them” “Alright let’s go

    Out in the forests, in the cold, damp grounds was a lycanthrope. Bloodied, crushed and gnawed. At the moment he is fighting for his life. It would be a wonder if he survived the night. He had silver skin like diamond, a perfect. He was authority and royalty in one …a true blood. As the redwood pack got ready for the full moon, little did they know that one of their own was breathing his last? The redwood, howled the loudest. Fought the boldest.

They were ahead of all clans and that earned those lots of respect amongst other pack Eric, the beta, jogged up the mountains as soon as the moon became full and screamed out to the other packs.

    While I threw my back in laughter, I didn't miss the looks from Margo, Amandla and Vok. Worry, annoyed and confused respectively. “What's so funny your highness?” madam Lafayette asked. I wiped a tear off my face. With a wave of my hand I smiled. “ Your face Madam Lafayette. It reminds me of a frowning child” The rest of the group sniggered and it made Madam Lafayette more pissed. “Okay I'm sorry if I confused any of you but sorry to disappoint you but I have no new mate” “You don't?” Margo asked and I shook my head. “But I do have some good news” I said with a smile. They all looked at me with questions in their eyes. “ I have found the solution to our problems” They stared at me like I was stupid.” The young girl in there is going to help us enter into that half moon pack.” “Is she part of them!” Margo’s eyes flew wide bd I nodded. Before I could say Jack. They were all in Marcel's house. They got acquainted with the girl and I told them how I found her. The little girl wa

    I took in a deep breath. “Alright Now we are going to play a little game called, give the girl back to me. You keep the girl here and you move away immediately” I said in the calmest voice I could muster as I tried to hold my cool. “Oh look at that. He thinks that we are–“ he didn’t get to finish that statement when I swiftly broke his neck and shred him in two. “So who is next?” I said to the two. They came charging at me. I took care of them like the 1st, though it took me quite longer because he was the one with the gun. By the Time I was through, I was already bloodied up. I had a few bruises here and there, but I wasn’t the one lying on the ground dead. I picked up the girl, who had transitioned. She looked peaceful as she was. I checked her pulse and found out that she was still alive. I carried her on my back and went to my pack. I dropped her with the royal doctor. Marcel. He was an old friend of mine. Though I told him to keep it a secret bit I knew news like this

    One month earlier. “How would building a calf benefit us?” Abram barked. I glared at him. I was about to stand but I felt a hand on time mine. It was madam Lafayette. She stared at me and nodded. “Why are you against building a Calf?” She asked. I turned to Abram. “ Because it's stupid. “ He replied. “How would you do that when we have our women veong captured and held hostage by Maximus and Stephen!” For the past one hour I had tried convincing the elders of my pack to go with alpha Margo's plans. Her plan was beautiful. It was well thought and intelligent. Madam Lafayette was really convinced we would win the war. Everyone amongst the elders agreed to our plan except one man. Elder Abram. That man has become a thorn in my flesh and I wanted nothing hit to deal mercilessly with him. Madam Lafayette warned me before this meeting. She said I needed the approval of the other elders to get gold to build the calf. For once in my life I had to calm down. But with each word that cam

    “What are you guys doing here?” I quizzer the maids. “Nothing your highness” they muttered. They couldn't look me in the eye. That was how I knew they were hiding something. “Speak up! Why are you here!” They exchanged glances between each other but still said no word. My blood began to boil. “If you don't talk, I'll tell the alpha that you tried Killin me” they gasped, shaking their heads. “Alright then talk” I ordered. One of them cleared her throat. She opened her mouth to speak but one of the maids stooped her. “Leave me! “ She eyed the girl. Then she looked up.’ you highness, it's the alpha. He asked that we come glam you up” “For what? I thought the celebration is over” She shook her head. “ I have no idea” I stared at them briefly and sighed. Maximus and not being clear these days. What did he want from me now. “ Okay ladies, you may all go” they looked frightened. “I know it's the alpha's orders but I'll look into it” I said. They nodded and left. I watched them lea

    It's a beautiful day. I knew it the moment I woke up. Today is finally the celebration. My eyes glanced around the room. It was beautiful. For the past more week, since preparation has become more serious I began to see another side of Maximus. He wasn't exactly kind but a lot of things have changed. The ordered the guards and The maids to bring in a new bed in his room. Of course you must precious. I could live in it and not move around. And from then on I began to notice the way I was being treated. Like a person worthy of respect and love. Maximus was barely around and for that I hard the room all to myself. Within a few minutes, maids flooded my room. I was given a bath with that best oils and then I was out. I dressed up and sat for my make up. I barely noticed the maids bustling around me, adjusting my gown, pinning up my hair, dusting shimmer onto my skin. My mind was elsewhere until I felt something prick my skin. “Ouch!” “Sorry your highness” the maid pleaded. I nodde

    I was taken into Maximus’s chambers. I tried to wriggle out of their grip but it was already useless. “Bring that whore here” he ordered. As soon as I got close to me, he slapped me two times and I fell to the floor. When I stood up I realized that my nose was bleeding. “You are becoming a thorn in my flesh and I will do away with you one day” he growled. This time Maximus grabbed me and shoved me to the corner of his room. There he tied me up to a chair in his room. For days I had no food or water. One morning before Maximus left for a meeting, he walked to my corner and stooped to my level. Immediately I shut my eyes tighter. “Open your eyes” he said. I ignored him. My eyes still closed. “I know you are not sleeping.” He said. “People who sleep do not have their eye lid shaking” Finally I couldn’t take it anymore. “What do you want?” I glared at him. “I knew you were awake” “Okay what difference does it make?

    Maximus ordered the guards to lock me up in a room. I would have no food or water for the next few days. The next day, someone knocked on my door. “Psst Nina” “Nina” I turned around lazily. I had lost hope of it all. Just I saw someone echo looked like Marcus. “Marcus?’’ “Yes it’s me. I will get you out of here this night. Just hang in there” he said and walked away. True to his words, he rescued me. We managed the escape the dungeon and we got into a restaurant in town. “We will be safe here” he said. He ordered food and water for me. And I stayed there for a day. On the second day, I was beginning to wonder how to go back to the winter fell pack. I discussed with Marcus. Then I heard a loud bang. I looked up immediately. Suddenly the door was yanked open and I screamed. Immediately I jumped. My heart beat loudly, I was almost sure everyone could hear. What was happening? Broad shoulders. Height as tall as a mountain.

    We were able to find some shelter for the night. The journey into the woods was quite a long one. We found some water, the woman and her baby could drink. Then the strange man, made us a tent. As I watched him set it up, I always wondered how he was able to go into the fire, then I saw a mask over his nose. I could only see his eyes. The longer I stared at him, the more I realized that his eyes were Black. The darkest I have ever seen. His personality reminded me so much of Alpha Knox. If only he was here or had come to save us. Maybe all these things wouldn't have happened. I looked up from my thoughts. Suddenly he turned and he and I made eye contact. Immediately I looked away. He was quite intimidating. By morning I had managed to, avoid eye contact with him all through. He announced that he was going to find food. Meanwhile I was very hungry. The moment I spotted a wild fruit, a slow smile spread across my lips. I stooped and picked it but immediately the fruit was sho

    One week later “Get the fuck up animals, there is work in the kitchen!” the cook said and spit from her mouth, landed on my face. I dragged myself to a sitting position. Wiped my face and sighed. I was getting used to be being tried like this. Since I had being sold to this pack, all I have being treated with is filth. My buyer was a palace guard that was so greedy. He made passes at me but when I refused, he made sure I was not only working in the kitchen but I was the personal maid to the Alpha’s daughter. The pack, which I was bought into, lived in a cave in the mountain. No wonder I had never heard of them. “Daphne!” I hurried out of bed and ran to the kitchen. Daphne. That was the name the hideous looking kidnapper of mine could come up with but I was grateful my true identity was not known. “Coming your highness!” I dashed out of the kitchen with trays of food. The stairs and food were not in good terms so, I tried to walk fast and the same time slow. “I am here,
