HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 22: Defeated
RIOOwen's brown wolf had his ears pointed slightly forward and its forehead, neck hair and hackles were raised. Ivory teeth appeared between his jaws, his tongue moving around his mouth with saliva dripping from its lips. I wondered if it was trying to scare me but my wolf was not one to be intimidated. I was bigger than he was and more ferocious. We both swung our heads and with our bodies low in a crouch position, we began slinking slowly towards each other whilst keeping our eyes on each other. Owen's brown wolf immediately rushed forward to lunge at my left flank but my grey wolf was quick to dodge. As a result, we got involved in a confrontation and Owen thought he could defeat me by targeting my injured shoulder. But I knew his trick and after a moment of fighting hard, I finally got a chance to sink my sharp canine into his flesh. He growled in pain, his eyes on his freshly sustained wound just above his thigh. Before he could fully retract, I snapped at his head, pulling t
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 1: Nightmare
FRANCESCA My heart was pounding loudly in my chest as I stood in the middle of nowhere. I had been walking for a long time, trying to find my way out, but I kept returning to this same junction — every time. Tall trees stood as mountains around me, such that I could not see ahead of me. But I knew I was somewhere in a thick forest and I wondered how I had gotten there. The last thing I could remember was returning my novel to the shelf and going to sleep on my bed in my room. How then had I moved from being in my room to being in a forest? What was going on? The night was silent except for the hooting of an owl from a distance and the occasional croaking of toads. The crickets were chirping annoyingly too but aside from these creatures, the night was pin-drop silent. The silence was frightening. The sky had a few stars scattered around it with an ivory-shaped moon which shone its light lazily, casting faint shadows on the ground. Rather than aid my sight, this faint moonlight
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 2: Caught in the Act
FRANCESCA The sun was starting to set when I finally stood up to leave. I had been at my mom's tomb all day, crying my eyes out as I paid her homage. It was her anniversary that day and my boyfriend, Jason had promised to go with me to the cemetery. But a board meeting had come up and had truncated our plans, forcing me to go alone. Now, I was here, torn and broken, staring at the inscription on her tombstone: Ella Johnson. A beloved mother. That was who she was to me. My beloved mother. I still could not believe she was gone. I still hoped that one day I would wake up to her sitting by my bed, holding a plate of pancakes and teasing me for thinking she was dead. But that was a desire that could never be actualized. She was dead. She had died a year ago from cancer. The memory still hurt badly because everyone thought she was gonna survive it. She had been responding well to treatment but had suddenly not woken up the next morning. It was strange and I was yet to figure things
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 3: A New World?
FRANCESCA I was sprinting at lightning speed through a violent wind. It was as though I was being carried away by the wind and as I sprinted, a quick documentary of my life played before my eyes Images of my adulthood down to my childhood flashed before my eyes as I ran but these images vanished when it got to my babyhood. It was strange because I thought it should be from babyhood to adulthood and not the other way around, but I willed myself not to care, rather I focused on my environment, trying to make out where I was. Was I in heaven or hell? The last thing I could remember was being hit by a vehicle. So where was I and how did I move from lying on the bare ground to flying in the sky? Everywhere was bright. The light was blinding and I squinted a bit to shut the light from hurting my eyes. I sure must be in heaven, I thought to myself. I had heard stories about the heavens being filled with light so I must be in heaven. A soft voice was humming a melodious tune and I s
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 4: A Runaway
RIOIt was a struggle but I was finally able to open my eyes after some time. It had felt like scales had been used to seal my eyelids such that they were heavy to lift.However, after a few trials, my eyes fluttered open but I soon shut them because of the sharpness of the sun's rays. The sun was facing me directly and its lights hurt my tired eyes. Groaning loudly, I brought an arm to my forehead, trying to shield myself from the harshness of the sun, but even that was difficult because my arm felt like a weight. It was suddenly too heavy to lift.As if this was not enough, my head was aching badly, like someone was pounding it with a pestle. As I lay there, I wondered what had happened and why I was in so much pain.My entire body hurt. I could not tell where exactly was in pain but it felt like I was swollen everywhere. My body did not feel like mine anymore; it felt so heavy and this scared me.Opening my eyes again — this time, shielding my face from the sun — I looked to the s
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 5: A Letter Book
FRANCESCA I was out of breath when I finally finished speaking and the old woman was staring at me blankly, like I was a radio she was listening to. I stared back at her. Then she smiled and stood to her feet. I watched her walk to the end of the room and go to a wardrobe where she pulled out a drawer. She picked something from it, closed the drawer, and walked back to me, slowly, her smile still on her face. Her skin was paler than in my dream and her hair was more grey than I had thought it was. I was getting to see her features much better now that she was standing right before me in reality. She sat back on her chair and handed me a necklace with a pearl locket. "Do you remember this?" She asked me and I stared at it intently with my eyes narrowed."Am I supposed to?" The necklace did look familiar but I could not tell where I had seen it or who it belonged to. "Yes," she looked hurt but she smiled again, and the hurt vanished from her eyes, "Well, I do not expect you to r
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 6: A New Identity
FRANCESCA "We all knew you were different when you were born. First, you were not born the regular way and second, a light shone on your forehead like a diamond shape when you came out of your mother. You also did not have the pointy ears or paleness of an elf. This had never happened before so the elders claimed that you might be dangerous and should be killed but your parents refused. They didn't want to kill their only daughter. "Zuri, your mother's friend, was not happy about this in particular and she tried to convince your mother. She even went as far as saying that you'll bring doom to Irkstone. She was a seer so she lied to your mother that she had seen into your future. "But your mother could not bear to kill her child. Angry that your mother won't listen to her, Zuri left Irkstone. She was never really part of us. She was a sorceress your mother had found almost dead in the woods. You would think she would be faithful to your mother for saving her, but no, Zuri killed you
HER RESURRECTION: The Alpha's Princess Chapter 7: Caught
RIOI had been running since with no definite destination on my mind. All through, the path had been lonely and as I moved further away, I could sense from within that I was wandering farther away from home. This was scary because I had never had any reason to leave my packland: it was where I had been born and where I had grown up, but I guess things were changing now. I was embarking on a journey of the unknown, a journey in which I did not know what to expect: if I would survive or not.It was a known fact that an alpha should not be out alone, wandering about in the woods with no company but I did not think I had the right to be accompanied by warriors anymore. For all I knew, I had lost that right. I had flouted all the rules my father had taught me: An alpha's duty was to protect his pack. An alpha was never one to run in the face of danger. An alpha was not one to be left vulnerable in the hands of others. But I was not that alpha anymore.Currently thinking about my father
