A new dawnArya ran through the bushes, her heart close to her throat. Whoever was chasing her was close to her. Her feet ached so badly, and she was running out of breath. She ignored the branches and leaves that sapped through her arms while she ran. Her legs ran tipped on the floor, and it carried her as fast as she could. She dripped on the branch and fell to the ground with a big thub. The brown wolf that was chasing her was almost close to her. She held both hands to the ground, dragging her weight with the little strength left. As she drew away, she could see the speed of the wolf almost close to her; her hands quivered, and her heart was playing a rhythm beating beneath her rib cage.Deep into the woods, hardly any people visited except for poachers and some random people who wanted to risk their lives. There is no sign of a good samaritan going to save her. Whoever was close, two feet away from her, adrenaline shoot through her blood veins. Her breathing accelerated, and he
Dark desiresJosh, the beta of the Silver Crescent pack, walked into the office of the Alpha."Alpha," he bowed in respect. Alpha Jasper, who had his revolving chair turned towards the window backing Josh, was down on paper work, but he knew who walked in."What do you have for me, Josh?" "The construction site collapsed yesterday night." Alpha Jasper immediately stood to his feet with dark eyes and furrowed brows."Collapsed!" He asked in surprise; he had been on this project for over 6 months now. He wanted to see his pack progress forward, which made him institute a committee for the project, which involves the building of more schools, hospitals, and banks instead of people falling into trade by barter. He had handled so many issues on different occasions, and he needed to put an end to them. He invested a fortune in it and wouldn't want to experience setbacks.The hospital has already been erected in the same way as the schools and is functioning effectively. The last project, w
Selena looked through the windshields, and the familiar cloak house came into view. Those places hold memories—unforgettable memories. She happened to get a call from Landon requesting that she come home. It sounded urgent, and immediately she packed up. As the car neared the house,she could see the side of the house, which had a beautiful green garden that was now filled with dead stalks. No one has taken on the duties of watering what brought peace to her heart ever since she left and was left to weed away. The flowers, which had roses decorated on the facade, have no life. A lot has changed since being away from home. She halted the car, spread her hands apart, and inhaled the moist breeze of the forest."Home, sweet home," she whispered. She wouldn't tell how much she had missed the place. Her heart warmed up as she moved towards the entrance. Landon stood at the doorstep with a smile spread across his face."Welcome home, sis," he said, spreading out his hands to envelope her sl
Arya pov"I didn't come here to cause trouble, Alpha. You went too far on her. I don't think she deserves all those hurts" I tried to speak up my mind amidst the cold gaze of the Alpha on me. I had watched him repuke Selene, his chosen mate.I never knew I was going to find myself here, it was just a coincidence I found myself here and to crowd it all I met the guy I had a one-night stand with. Never knew he was an Alpha of another pack and I was his fated mate.Everything happened so fast, he kept calling me his mate. My inner wolves keep grumbling with me. I was at peace. I finally met the father of my unborn baby. I wasn't going to go through the pregnancy alone."Your vulnerability is a source of my strength. You won't question my order" I bowed my head, my hands shivering. Hope he won't punish me this time for trespassing."I'm sorry My Alpha" I spoke out, my voice shaking. Selene stood at the garden, tears in her eyes, the pain of what Alpha Jasper said to her pierced through h
Arya povI walked down to the car park, I was heading back to the pack house after seeing Selena at the hospital. She was quickly recovering.All of a sudden a cloth was held to my nose behind me prevent oxygen from flowing in and out of my nose and mouth. My hands and legs were shaking trembly. The smell was intoxicating, blurring my vision and weakening my muscles. My feet raised from the ground and my body over the shoulder of a stocky man. It bcame dark and the last I saw was been thrown into the back of a car. Who is this and what does he want from me?I sat at the corner of a dark room, when a figure appeared her hair fell across her shoulders. Her skin was smooth and glowed more. I sat at the corner of the room with my head buried in-between my legs. It was when I saw the reflection of the light which had changed the dark room I raised my face."Arya darling, don't cry" her voice echoed in the dark room just her white long gown shoned in the room." Please help me" I asked with
Alpha Jasper's deep voice echoed through the room."Carry her immediately to the master bedroom" he yawned at the guards who stood without knowing what to do when they saw Arya faint at the door.She had lost a lot of energy and was weak to her bones after running a mile. She was lost in the forest and couldn't find her way but she stumbled at someone. With her breath heavy at her mouth, she couldn't stop her throbbing heart that was beating profusely within her rib cage. She contemplated whether to ask for help or not as she lost the last trust within her and it felt like every face she came across wanted to harm her.She summoned up courage with her palms together and her face which was filled with tears she said with her shaky voice"Please help me, I lost my way" the stranger looked at her with a raised eyebrow. He had a hoe on his hand and a knife on the other. He looks like a farmer and petty dog beside him which barked at Arya.Arya prayed silently in her heart for the stranger
Arya walked back to her room with her face down. She was prevented from going about her daily routine which was going to school and she was stuck at home."Ma'am the Luna requests to see you in her chambers" one of the guards passed down the message to Arya who was lying on the bed."Ok I will be right there" she stood up and walked towards the direction of Selene's room. Why would she be calling her? Hasn't she done enough for her?When she entered the room, Arya's eyes fell on Selena who laid comfortably on the room."I will like you to watch my feet" Selena ordered with a hoarse voice. Arya blinked in surprise, she used a finger to clean her ears to be sure she heard right."What do you mean?" She asked Selene confused, if she needed someone to watch her feet then she could get the maid to do that for her."I want you to watch my feet, that isn't a request, that's an order" Selene raised her voice. Arya knew she didn't have much choice than to carry out Selena's order. The only per
Arya Pov"Welcome Alpha Jasper" the guards chorus with their heads bowed to the ground.I was in the kitchen when I heard those chanting voices of the guards. I rushed out heading to the front door to welcome the Alpha. My facial expression was filled with a captivating smile I couldn't hold back.The only person that brought so much joy to my heart was home, he filled those empty hollows deep down my heart.Just two feet away from him, it felt like I should jump into his arms immediately. His large muscular hands were spread apart to welcome. Just like I was about to sip into his arms she appeared from nowhere. Why didn't I see her face earlier? I was more focused on the Alpha and nothing else mattered again."Welcome my Alpha" Selena gave him a warm hug while she glared back at me with millions of lasers shooting through her eyes. I swallowed hard and placed my gaze elsewhere other than the Alpha and Selene.Isn't it supposed to be a 10-minute hug? Why does it take almost 20 minutes
