Alpha Vincent's POV "What are you doing, Vincent?!" Kate shouted and quickly approached my direction. She hugged my right arm and helped me to stand up. As soon as I calmed down at what I did to myself, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. 'Jacob, are you there?' I asked through the mind link. I am hoping he does not die after the ritual. It is okay that I am not able to shift again but not to lose him forever. After all, Jacob is my greatest gift from the Moon Goddess. 'Jacob, please... answer me,' I uttered and waited for him. I gulped hard, and the sweat from my forehead rolled down my cheeks. Then, after seconds, I heard a low growl that made me sigh in relief. He was weak, but what is important to me is that he is still alive. "Let's go, Vincent... Let's get out of here," Kate said and dragged me out of the library. I opened my eyes and withdrew my arm from her. With a cold look, I faced her. "Leave me alone," I said in a cold voice and turned around. I was about to w

Astrid's/ Veronica's POVEveryone gathered outside the mansion. We are now on the battlefield, waiting for the opponents to come.All the pups and female omegas are inside the packhouse for their safety.Everyone is ready to fight, to fight for their freedom.I looked at the side of the battlefield, and I saw Alpha Vincent. He was kneeling and his hands tied together. He was just silent and didn't bother to move. It seems he is waiting too.As we waited, a white-small foam slowly fell from the horizon. I looked up at the gray sky. I blinked when the foam dropped on my left cheek. It is cold. I wiped it and looked at it. Then, I realized that it was snowing.The first snow of this year has now begun to fall. Everyone looked up at the sky.I guess this day will be remarkable. Because the first snow of this year is the day when the war between me, and Vincent happens.I looked at my hand when I felt someone hold it. As I looked at who he was, I saw a pair of blue eyes. Beta Ivan looked a

Astrid's/ Veronica's POV "You betrayed me..." I gulped hard as I looked at his glistened eyes. Deny it or not, I was somehow guilty for betraying him, but who betrayed first? It is him, right? He betrayed me from the beginning! I don't wanna be eaten by this guilty feeling. I knew Alpha Vincent from head to toe. He knew how to manipulate things. "How dare you say I betrayed you, Vincent?" I asked between my gritted teeth. He was left speechless when the tone of my voice changed. My inner wolf, Sarah, takes over half of my body. My hands are covered with purr and my face. But my lower part and feet are still in human form. "What do you mean, Veronica?" he asked a dumb question that made me laugh in disbelief. My eyes started glistening with tears due to the anger I felt. "How long will you call me Veronica, Vincent?" I asked him with full of hatred in my voice. His forehead furrowed as he looked intently at my face. As if he was trying to figure out what was happening to me. Th

Astrid’s/Veronica’s POVMy heart kept beating out of fear when I woke up late in the morning.“Shit... I hope Alpha Vincent will not punish me,” I muttered as I hurriedly dressed up and got out of my room.I almost ran down the hallway just to be in the kitchen area as soon as possible.When I banged the door open, everyone in the kitchen looked in my direction.I caught my breath first and gulped hard.“Sorry,” I apologized and entered the area.Clara quickly left her task and approached me. A worried look was visible on her face.Oh, dear... It looked like I already knew what was running in her mind because her face mirrored mine.“Come on, girl… I guess the Alpha is now furious because his breakfast hasn't arrived yet,” she said in a nervous tone as she grabbed my wrist and pulled me near the cook station. She took the tray of food for Alpha Vincent and handed it to me.“Here. Go,” she said shortly. She pushed me after as if she was encouraging me to move quickly.The way she looke

Alpha Vincent's POVIt did not feel good to be here in the four corners of the room, laying on the bed, and killing time by doing nothing.I couldn't help but sigh in dismay. I massaged my temple as I clenched my eyes shut.How dare that culprit to poison me?! How dare he put my life at risk?!When the time comes I come to know who he was or she was, I swear to the Moon Goddess I will make that culprit's life a living hell, to the point he will beg me to end his life rather than taste the torture on my hands every day.Beta Ivan reported to me that they caught the culprit. But, we didn't discuss it further because I was always asleep due to the medicines I needed to take. Now, I wonder who is he."I'm not surprised I got poison anyway," I whispered as I opened my eyes and tried to sit on the bed. I rested my back on the headboard and heaved a sigh.I was not surprised because I am aware of my status. That is everyone hates me.Oh! Except for Beta Ivan and Gamma Steven. They are my ri

Astrid’s/ Veronica’s POVFive days had passed, and still the same. I was always beside the Alpha to gain his trust. Not even in a second that I forget the plan. But, something was bothering me. It is the Alpha smile. Alpha Vincent smiled at me genuinely last time. I put my right hand above my chest to feel my heart start to beat faster.That was the first time I saw the Alpha smile. Never in my life have I seen him smile, a genuine smile. Most of the time, his face is blank, and sometimes, furious.In the end, I brushed it out of my head."That smile is nothing," I whispered and focused on my task.When I had already finished my last task which was cleaning the pack's restroom, I went back to my chamber to rest. When I entered, I was startled when I saw Clara sitting on my bed.I hurriedly closed the door and looked at her in confusion.“Clara, what are you doing here?” I asked, and my forehead creased as I thought about what had gotten to her to visit me at this wee hour.
