Lahat ng Kabanata ng Althea: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

"Thea..."My grandfather William is standing near the entrance of my room. I look up from the book I was reading and give him a small smile. He walks into my room and lowered at the edge of my bed.His usual warm brown eyes are miserable and downcast. My grandfather is a good man. After my parent's death, he is the one who became my parent and caretaker. He labors in a garage nearby and most days we barely get to eat.That's why I never went to school. But my grandfather struggled to get me an online tutor so that I can complete my highschool. It's been 1 year since I got my high school degree. Now I am taking online classes for business management which he insisted upon.Grandpa never permitted me to go outside this house either. He often warns me that, terrible people who took my parents away are waiting to take me away from him too. Doctor Robin who is a friend of my grandfather said, it must be the trauma of losing my parents and my grandmothe

It's been 5 months since I came with my father. So far my new life here is nice. I made some good friends, Maxmillan, orphelia, Amanda. All my friends except Amanda and I are trainee Wolf's. They want to become the royal guards. Both of them came from different packs. Amanda belongs to the royal pack, which contains all the council members and the pack advisers who are much older than his highness.The royal guards give protection to all the packs in need and solve any issues faced by the alpha's. They have 50,000 royal guards stationed at different packs for the safety of the pack and to prevent conflicts between packs and from other supernaturals. All the Alpha's report to his highness and the royal guards report to my father.Amanda is the daughter of one of the council members. She is so sweet and shy. Me and Li met in the training arena. She and max turned out to be my trainers. My father suggested, it would be good for me to get to know the wolf culture and train t

"Althea, Go" I ordered her firmly when I saw her rooted to the spot."She can't" Smirked my father and there is an evil smile on my younger brothers face."Althea" I looked at her with dread."He somehow locked me here. I cannot move" she whispered."Let her go father" I requested him softly."Why should I" his careless answer grated on my nerves."I want her father" my brother Ornan asked my father, eying Althea with a disgusting look on his face.I blocked his view from her and stood in between them."No" I said firmly.I need to save her if it meant to sell my soul to Satan."If you let her go, I will do everything you want me to do without asking any questions. I will even take over after you and be an obedient son" I bargained with my father."No" Althea yelled horrified."Please keep quiet" I requested her, scared that my father might change his mind if she spoke wrongly."Hmmm.. interesting" hummed

Althea's POVPresentMy head feels like there is a heavyweight on it. My body aches everywhere. Max's constant chatter with Li is not helping my situation. I open my eyes and look at the direction from where I hear his noise. "Hey..." my voice is barely a whisper.They must have heard me anyway, because suddenly My father, Li, Max and Amanda surround my bed with wide eyes and huge smiles."Thea...!" "Oh my God you are awake..""Finally..""You scared us..."They all started to talk at once."Guys..." I try to tell them to stop talking but my voice comes out scratchy and dry.I motion with hand to give me some water. Luckily they understand and Amanda brings me water while my father helps me to drink it.There are unshed tears in my father's eyes which he tries to cover by looking down. "Father..." I gently place my hand on his and try to smile. I wish it looked like one."You were s

I should push him away and run from there. I should feel repulsed that he is touching me without my permission and scream for help.I do neither, instead I feel more relaxed and peaceful."You should not let strangers touch you," he says after some time as if reading my thoughts."Will I look crazy, if I say I know it's you even before you sat behind me," I responded honestly. He stills behind me for a second and then relaxes completely. He brings me closer to him with a possessive hold around my waist."Darius" "What?" I ask him confused."Call me Darius" he clarify"Oh.," I say lamely."How? " I know what he is asking. He is asking how I know that it's him. But I try to deflate the question."I thought you will run away thinking that I am crazy." I avoid his question."I have been here for a long time to know which is truly crazy. And this is not that. You truly are crazy though, standing in front of me
