In Love With Supposed Enemy

In a hall-like room was seen a mighty throne so high and was occupied by a dead-looking young man, handsome though with a terrifying smirk.

Situated around his cabinets, Lord Duncan observed the final meeting regarding the seventh vampire feast of Lutana.

"My lord, the feast has commerce and we are yet to find a wolf for the sacrifice", one vampire spoke with a bow,

"My lord, give us the power to invade the werewolf world and fetch the seventh sacrifice," the second voice also spoke with a bow.

"My lord-"

"Enough!" the supposed lord cuts off the words of the third person.

"We should be discussing more important things now than the sacrifice, "he scoffed without raising his brow.

He has a deep masculine voice which has a way of silencing every other once it arrives.

"But my Lord, what is more important than the sacrifice now?" Asked the first voice though not bold enough.

He shot him a wicked glare, which was replaced by a sarcastic laugh.

"I never knew you could ask that, but I will answer you" The supposed lord raised his face to everyone in his castle

He is the seventh lord that has ruled In Dacin Castle, the world of the vampires. In all the reigns of every other lord in Dacin Castle, he was different, ruling with power, wisdom, and might. No one dares to influence his made-up decision.

Since his reign, the vampires of the Dacin camp have never lacked blood to drink to remain alive. He ensured the blood of his enemies, the werewolves, were used to satisfy the desires of the vampires.

" I am tired of sacrificing mere werewolves. I need the blood of their Alpha, Tyrrell..." Lord Duncan's Murderous eyes flickered around the castle where his vampires said, anticipating the arrival of the next sacrifice for the feast of Lutana, the bronze god of the vampires.

"My Lord, you know how deadly Alpha Tyrrell can be. I don't think we can have him killed" Another vampire protested against Lord Duncan's decision.

" Yes, my Lord. We have been invading the WolfHaven pack for decades with our powerful soldiers. Scott here can testify how the last battle almost claimed our lives. Alpha Tyrrell cannot be killed, my Lord. It can't happen-"

" Quiet everyone!" Lord Duncan yelled in a commanding tone. "I decide who we kill for the feast and who don't kill! And now, I need Alpha Tyrrell's blood!" His eyes turned blood red.

Silence flushed in the air after Lord Duncan dropped a bloodshot on the vampires. They were all waiting for the sacrifice before commencing the feast.

The bronze god, Lutana, stood boldly carved by the side in the middle of the large temple. Its glistening eyes seem full of worries and a thousand questions. It needed blood, too, like the vampires. Why was there not any?

As everywhere became calm, lord Duncan stood up in anger and lifted his hands.

" Scott" he called the leader of the soldiers.

" Yes, my lord" Scott walked out from the mist of the crowd and bowed before Lord Duncan.

Grunting like a fat pig, Lord Duncan replied, " Scott, gather your men and-"

" My lord" A voice interrupted from the crowd and was suddenly accompanied by a piercing cry of a young lady.

Lord Duncan suddenly lifted his gaze and saw a young werewolf being blindfolded and tied in both hands like a sacrificial lamb.

" What is this? Who is she? " Lord Duncan flared with anger in his voice.

The soldiers halted at the spot and laid the vulnerable young lady down before one of them explained.

He bowed." My lord, we met this young woman trending the deadly path of the camp, and we decided to capture her for the seventh sacrifice for Lutana." The soldier grinned. He felt his master would be pleased with the sacrifice.

However, lord Duncan was disappointed at the level of amateurs he had as a soldier. He doesn't know why it was tough for his soldiers to capture Alpha Tyrrell. He needed Alpha's blood.

Without uttering a word to the annoying soldiers, Lord Duncan strode in frustration back to his throne with Scott escorting him behind.

" Untie the sacrifice and set her legs and hands loose" Lord Duncan managed to show calmness. Though he did not accept the mere omega, she was their last hope for the seventh sacrifice.

Shortly, the young lady's eyes were loose; she began to gaze puzzledly around the corner of the castle in fear.

Lord Duncan cast one gaze at her. She was just a perfect beautiful human without flaws.

After gazing uninterruptedly at the frail Young lady, Lord Duncan asked, " You were carelessly walking about in a dreadful place like this? Do you want to die?" He roared at the young lady and she flinched.

Kneeling, the young lady began to cry. She seemed terrified by the evil ambiance of the vampires.

" Please sir, forgive me. I'm just a poor orphan being unfairly treated by her aunt" She begged the lord of the vampire with her two hands clenched in mercy.

An unbashful sneer filled the air as the lady kept begging, and she suddenly became cold, terrified, and diffident.

" Silence! " Lord Duncan stopped the sneer coming from the crowd. He was just about to ask his guards to prepare the lady for sacrifice but suddenly halted.

For ten seconds, he kept glancing at the lady. Every one of the vampires was slowly becoming pissed. They were tasty and needed blood to quench their taste.

" What is your name?" Lord Duncan asked the young lady, shocking everyone as hell.

The vampires opened their mouths full of rotten teeth and glared surprisedly at each other.

"My name is Layla. Yes, Layla M– Mark" the young lady's voice cracked. Everyone could see how she was trembling.

" That sounds good," Lord Duncan grinned, and Scott, the head of the soldiers, interrupted.

" My lord, is everything alright? " He asked but didn't get a response from his master.

While everyone was murmuring concerning the sudden change in lord Duncan's action, he shushed them immediately.

" Quiet!" He commanded and everywhere became calm.

Layla, the young lady, was sobbing uncontrollably. She knows she is about to die and join her parents.

" Please don't kill. I will do anything you want. I can become your slave or even an errand girl. But don't kill me" she kept pleading for her life.

" I need blood. I need blood," One of the men protested from the crowd, and In a matter of time, others joined in the protest, interrupting the peace in the castle.

" Blood! Blood Blood! Give us blood! " The fuss continued.

Provoked at the unnecessary disruption, lord Duncan rose from this throne, threatening to kill everyone if they kept making a fuss.

In a wink of the eyes, everyone pinned their months, afraid of their lives.

" I shall keep Layla for a purpose. And you all better maintain your peace" Lord Duncan bellowed. He hated being controlled by mere vampires.

Layla was still kneeling on the floor. She didn't hear Lord Duncan's first statement correctly. To her, this was happening all in her dreams.

" Layla" Lord called Layla's name.

Fear gripped Layla. Her heart was pounding in speed.

" Yes–yes," she stammered as her legs could not carry her body any longer.

" I shall give you a task. My subjects want your blood but–"

Lord Duncan barely finished before Layla fell flat on the floor.

" I will do anything you want me to do, sir" she begged, with tears in her eyes.

Lord Duncan delayed in giving his final verdict. The vampires were not making matters easy for him either.

" I am going to kill Alpha Tyrrell myself," lord Duncan bragged but didn't get cheered by the crowd. They know lord Duncan can never defeat the great Alpha, who has lived for years and decades without dying.

Rumor has it that Alpha Tyrrell has strong magical powers. From each full moon to the other, when the vampires invade the pack, they end up eliminating every old werewolf, leaving the young ones to grow and give birth to young ones before coming to wipe them off.

However, no matter how victorious the vampires got after killing the older werewolves and drinking their blood, Alpha Tyrrell would always take them by surprise. No matter how hard the vampires tried, they could never defeat Alpha Tyrrell. He has lived many years without getting old and this became a treat to the vampires and their lord.

When Lord Duncan knew he couldn't succeed in killing the great Alpha Tyrrell, he decided to change his tactics.

Maybe if he tried something different, he might get what he wanted.

Looking carefully at Layla, the human, Lord Duncan could see how courageous she was. She was beautiful too.

As Layla continued pleading with Lord Duncan, he finally made up his mind to send Layla to seduce Alpha Tyrrell and bring back his head to Dacin Castle.

That evening, Layla Mark found herself in WolfHaven Pack, and she froze, veering and glaring around. Maybe she was teleported from Dacin Castle or something. Everything just looked strange In her eyes.

For her mission to be successful, she had to come equipped and in the reincarnation of a sister of Alpha who was mated to another Alpha In another pack.

Her name is Mia. She is tall, slender, and beautiful like a goddess. In order to make Layla's mission successful, she was handed a six-edged mirror which is capable of revealing Alpha Tyrrell's past secret.

The mirror was also designed by a powerful mage to reveal every answer that Alpha Tyrrell would ask Layla. In that way, there won't be any mistakes or any suspiciousness from Alpha or the werewolves.

Layla glared at her newly transformed body and smiled to herself. She was now Mia and no longer Layla.

A cool breeze blew her as she stood at a spot admiring the pack. Its magnificence was inexplicable.

The vampire's camp was nothing compared to the werewolves' packs. In all of Layla's twenty years of existence on earth, she had never seen such a beautiful place with elegant buildings.

As she kept turning around to admire the pack, she carelessly stepped on someone's foot.

" Oh, my goodness. My lady, when did you arrive at the pack?" A friendly female voice pierced into Layla's ears.

" W– Who are you? Layla asked, glaring at the beautiful lady of about Twenty-five years of age, smiling before her.

The lady winced before grabbing Layla's hands in excitement.

" My lady, it is me, Ella. I served in your brother's mansion as his maid. Did you forget me so soon?" She persisted, causing Layla, who was on a secret mission, to feel a flush of uneasiness.

" Oh, sorry. I lost my memory of you, Ella" she chuckled, having a double thought in her mind. The mission she was sent to was a tactical one. She would get killed by Lord Duncan after thirty days of failing to deliver Alpha Tyrrell to him.

However, Layla is completely oblivious as to who Alpha Tyrrell is. Back in the vampire camp, they kept making her believe that Alpha Tyrrell was a dreaded person who ruled his pack with eminence and wisdom. It was also rumored that Alpha Tyrrell was the most handsome man on earth but didn't have a mate, as the case may be.

Pondering hard on these things, Layla is daring to meet with that great Alpha whom none of the vampires could conquer.

Beating her chest, she muttered loudly " I'll conquer you"

" What did you say? Were you referring to me?" Ella asked, thinking Layla was talking to her.

" Not you" She chuckled and suddenly darkened her face.

Seeing Layla in Mia's incarnation, Ella believed She was Mia. Then, she helped Layla with her bags, and they proceeded to the mission.

Getting to the gigantic mission, Ella showed Layla her room and since Alpha was out on a trip, Layla had to occupy Mia's room till Alpha returned.

The next morning, Layla woke up and stretched her hands and legs. Her hopes of meeting Alpha Tyrrell will finally come true today.

From yesterday, she had gotten the information that Alpha Tyrrell would be arriving In the pack. No doubt, Layla's mind had never been this fearful since hearing about Alpha from the vampires. She can't wait to see him.

How can only one man cause two hundred thousand vampires to flinch at the mention of his name?

The clock was already ticking very fast. Lord Duncan had given Layla thirty days to seduce Alpha. This would be the quickest way for lord Duncan to eliminate Alpha.

In being committed to this task, Layla had pledged her loyalty to Lord Duncan and the Vampires never to betray them but to ensure the delivery of Alpha Tyrrell into their hands.

Layla knew the consequences of breaking this agreement. She had written the punishment out, meditating on them daily so she wouldn't get carried away in the mansion and bring death to herself.

As the sun became hotter, Layla changed from her sleeping wear into a more decent but attractive outfit and dashed out downstairs.

She was a stranger who knew no one in the pack but Since she was Mia, everyone welcomed her warmly in the mansion.

Isabella, one of the maids who was assisting Cassandra in tidying the living room, saw Layla coming downstairs and was shocked.

" My lady" Isabella walked up to Layla and bowed. " When did you arrive from your pack? I did know you were around," Isabella said, holding a beautiful smile on her face.

With the help of the small six-edged mirrors, Layla hid inside her gown, she was able to relate with Isabella as Mia would do.

" I arrived yesterday. How have you been darling?" Layla hugged Isabella. The mirror had already instructed Layla on how to act as Mia. She was able to relate well, having everyone's information In the mansion.

Later, Isabella and Layla walked to the kitchen to assist Mark and Cassandra in the cooking. Alpha was returning to the mansion today, and everything had to be put in place, the food inclusive.

While In the kitchen, Isabella and Layla Continued chatting and laughing like they'd known each other before.

Soon, the door burst open, and the cook, Mark, walked inside the kitchen.

Immediately, Mark saw Layla in the kitchen, something unusual left his body. He couldn't explain it, but it was not a good sign.

" Hello, Mark," Isabella greeted Mark before turning to Layla, " Did you remember Mark, the cook?" Isabella asked Layla.

Layla without turning to look Mark In the face replied" Yes"

This amazed Mark. He was confused. Deep down, he was struggling with believing that Layla was Mia, Alpha Tyrrell's sister.

" Welcome, my lady," Mark replied amid the struggle inside of him. A part of him was telling him to confront Layla.

Mark had special powers like Isabella too. He could hear from the spirits but did not have the power to become invisible like Isabella.

" How have you been doing, Mark? I heard you've been feeding the whole house with amazing dishes," Layla repeated Mia's exact words to Mark.

Confused, Mark gave an uneasy smile and walked to get the broccolis ready for preparation.

About a moment later, Alpha arrived back in the pack.

While the guards walked Alpha from the gate to the main building, he began to perceive something in the air. He could feel the presence of a stranger in the Pack.

" Did anyone visit the pack in my absence?" Alpha turned to Nat, his special guard.

" Yes, my lord," Nat replied as he walked Alpha inside.

" Who's she? Alpha replied premeditatively without missing words.

Nat, Alpha's right-hand man, was surprised how Alpha got to know that it was a lady who visited the mansion.

" She's your sister, Mia," Nat replied.

Alpha did not expect Mia to visit the mansion without informing him at hand. He was pretty vexed but did not say anything else to Nat and the guards with him.

They were yet to get to the main building when they began to hear a disrupting noise from inside.

"What could the noise in the building be for?" Alpha tightened his cold but handsome face. Everyone knew how dreaded Alpha was. He doesn't have the time to laugh with anyone in the pack.

" I will just find it out. My lord," Nat tried moving, but Alpha stopped him.

" Stay back. I will find it out myself" Alpha stomped inside the mansion as the uproar continued.

He noticed the noise was coming from the kitchen, and without hesitation, he asked Nat and the other guards to remain in the living room while he found out what the fuss in the kitchen was all about.

Back inside the kitchen, Mark seized Layla's hands, insisting she didn't leave until she revealed her mission in the pack.

" Let me go." Layla struggled in Mark's hands, but he gripped her hands tighter.

"I won't let you go until you tell me your mission in the pack. You're not Alpha's sister. So, who sent you here?" Mark barked, sweat dripping from his body.

He was ready to shift into his wolf and devour Layla but since Alpha was returning from his trip today, he thought it right to chain Layla and let Alpha see the enemy that had sneaked into the pack.

Layla suddenly became powerless, yet she tried not to reveal her true identity to Mark. That was suicidal.

Enduring Mark's furious grip, Layla's eyes welled up in tears. Crying was all she could do to prove to Mark that she was not a spy, but Mark kept tormenting her.

Just then, the door burst open, and Alpha walked inside in a fret of anger.

He caught Mark strangling his only sister, Mia.

Without asking questions, Alpha landed Mark a straight, heavy blow on the face and then dragged Layla out of Mark's grip.

Raising his face to Layla, the lady who had the body and the face of Mia, Alpha pulled her close and hugged her.

Unbeknownst to him, the person he thought was his sister was just an enemy sent to hurt his life. She was that enemy he once perceived her presence. Now, let the game begin.

"You dare lay your dirty hands on my sister? Why?" Alpha barked at Mark, who was resting his back on the cabinet, nursing the pain from his nose.

" My lord, I'm sorry, but she is not your sister," Mark tried to explain provokingly.

While Layla remained in Alpha's hands, he left her and walked to his cook. The fact that he saw a part of Layla's skin turned crimson from Mark's grip made him Infuriated.

" Now, listen to me, Mark. Let this be the last time you try to mess with my sister. I don't expect such an ugly reaction from you." Alpha's eyes burned at Mark.

" My lord, I know you won't believe me but the lady is not your sister. Please ask her who she is. She is a spy." Mark made more attempts to explain, but his efforts hit a dead horse.

While the fuss was ongoing, Layla couldn't remove her eyes from Alpha.

The rumors about him were true indeed. She looked at his monolid eyes and her heart dropped in speed.

His height, his chest, those eyes, and his handsome face, everything made Layla's body shudder.

This was Layla's first time meeting with the great king that hath lived

For decades, escaping the snare of Lord Duncan and all his enemies.

Alpha's handsome face made Layla begin to feel a certain way. No doubt, she looked possessed by him already.

With lips parted in awe, Layla couldn't take her focus away from Alpha.

While lost in her world of imagination, she felt Alpha's strong hands around her hand pulling her with him.

" Let's leave, Mia," Alpha said, dragging Layla with him.

Mark stood numb, looking at Alpha as he pulled the stranger with him, thinking she was Mia.

All of Mark's efforts to prove to Alpha that Layla wasn't Mia proved abortive, and he had to give up fighting.

Some moments after, Alpha and Layla arrived in Alpha's chambers, and he hugged her, trying to ease her pain.

" Why did you come without informing me? This is unlike you, Mia." He separated from Layla, walked to the side of the wardrobe, and removed his gold wristwatch from his hands.

" I'm sorry I didn't inform you of my coming, I wanted to surprise you "

Layla replied facetiously but accurately like Mia would do.

Suddenly, Alpha's ambiance changed. He walked back to Layla and cupped her cheeks, scanning deep into her eyes.

This frightened Layla. She hoped Alpha wouldn't figure out that she was not Mia with the way he was glaring studiously at her.

Then, Alpha let go of her cheeks and he said in a friendly tone, " Come on, Mia. Why would you want to surprise me? Don't you think you're acting a bit strange? You know I didn't like people barging Into me. I hate surprises, don't you remember?" He pierced a cold gaze at Layla as if he knew who she truly was.

Frightened, Layla nodded but managed to hide her fears with a notable smile.

" I Know who you are, brother. You hated surprises back then when our parents were still alive, but today, I intentionally showed up to see you. It's been a while, and I missed my handsome brother," Layla's voice thrilled in pretense.

Each time she spoke to Alpha, it looked like something was speaking through her, but when she looked deep into his eyes, her confusion grew.

When Alpha stood facing Layla, he scanned her from head down. She was Mia but what came over Mark? Why did he suddenly say Mia was a spy?

" Why did you come? " Alpha asked after his heart told him that Mark was not in his right frame of mind.

Fidgeting, Layla replied, " Just to visit you. I missed you." Her eyes locked into his, pooling with something she couldn't define as his presence ignited a spark in her.

" That's a lie, Mia. You and I know you don't just visit except you need something from me" he reminded, his eyes glued to Layla's.

Putting on a sad face, Layla ran into Alpha's hands. This was the first step in her mission.

" Please, I want some days with you. My childlessness is causing my mate, Alpha Liam Woodstood to begin to maltreat me. He's transformed into someone else entirely," Layla Continued, making a pitiful face, gently caressing Alpha's back, trying to set him In the mood.

Hearing the heartbreaking news, Alpha plants a kiss on Layla's forehead.

" Stay with me. Don't go back to your pack for now, okay?" Alpha said while they remained in each other's warmth.

Something was different as their bodies entwined. It seems they were breaking a certain boundary.

Layla could feel Alpha's chest beating fast in her chest. She could feel Alpha's worries on her chest, but their closeness brought him comfort.

Alpha wrapped his hands around Layla's waist, forgetting she was supposed to be Mia, his sister.

However, a sudden knock came on the door, interrupting the unexplained thing going on in their heart and they quickly let go of each other.

" I'll get the door," he said, walking to the door feeling a bit embarrassed about something, some lewd things he was imagining in his heart. Damnit.

When he got to the door, he opened it without asking who it was and found Isabella standing by the door.

" My lord, " Isabella bowed " Your meal Is ready"

" You can leave. I'll be there in a few minutes," he replied coldly and shut the door.

He hated the way he was feeling. He has never experienced things like that in his life.

Why was his heart thumping fast when he held his sister in his hands? What Is happening to him? Alpha cannot bring himself down to saying the word 'Love'. He hates it. It was just too heavy on his lips to pronounce. After all, he can't love his sister in that way.

" Alpha Tyrrell." He heard Layla's voice, and he slowly turned from the door to her.

" Is anything the matter? You looked worried. Is everything okay? Please tell me, " Layla began, Walking towards Alpha.

Her mission has begun today. The mission was to seduce Alpha Tyrrell, make him reveal his secret of longevity to her, and bring the secret to her master, lord Duncan.

Although inexperienced in things that pertain to men, Layla, with those lustrous eyes, walked to Alpha, swaying her hips from side to side.

When Alpha saw Layla looking ravaged, he tried as much to avoid looking at her. Why was she acting that way?

" I think you should leave for dinner now. I will join you at the dining table. I need to freshen up" he tried to dismiss. He was becoming miserable and frustrated inside about his sister.

" It's okay. Please help me with my necklace. I have been struggling with it" Layla stood close, virtually pressing her chest on Alpha. She wanted him to feel her firm mammalian glands but he parted a mile from her.

Without a choice, Alpha ran his hands on Layla's neck, pulling the necklace. Immediately he was done, he handed it to her and disappeared to the bathroom.

With the help of the six-edged mirror, Layla had been informed that Alpha doesn't look or fall cheaply for women. She doubted if he would look in her direction anytime.

To make matters worse, she was informed that he had decided to remain mateless forever.

Trying to seduce him will even warrant suspiciousness. It was Mia. How does she succeed in seducing her supposed brother?

She got to her room and collapsed on the bed, thinking hard before going to the bathroom.

After showering, she left the room to the dining room, hoping to find Alpha Tyrrell sitting already.

It was so horrible the way she felt inside of her. She can't explain those feelings, but one thing she knows is that her days are remaining twenty and nine days for the task.

As she sat for dinner, she glared around but couldn't find Alpha in the living room, so she hurried to his room upstairs.

As Layla lifted every foot in fear to Alphas chambers. She kept planning what she would do to bring Alpha close to her in a way that he wouldn't suspect a thing. She couldn't just kiss him or grope him about. It was abominable to do that to her supposed brother, as she claimed.

Flushed with confusion, Layla got to Alpha's chambers, and without ringing the doorbell, she pushed the door and walked inside.

Alpha was in the bathroom taking his shower. Unknown to him, Layla was Inside his room already.

After the long, endless bath, he walked, tired and completely naked, without even a towel on.

Clueless, he raised his face, and his eyes caught with that of Layla staring lustfully at him, With what seemed like a shocking expression on her face.

Without making any attempt to cover his nude from the ravishing eyes of his sister, Alpha Continued staring at Layla, with a certain feeling growing rapidly and uncontrollably inside of him like a strong desire for lovemaking.

He was beginning to love his sister and this was unlike him.
