Chapter: Chapter 8Zara's POV. Picking up my bags and taking a walk to the border was not as interesting as I thought it would be. One of the reasons I was a little bit worried for myself was because there was nothing to do. Mia and Ava were pretty worried sick for me, but I kept on telling them that it was nothing, but they didn't want to believe it. "Why do you just want to leave? You can always tell Noah, he will fight for you no matter what. You cannot allow yourself to be pushed into doing something that you shouldn't be." Ava said, her eyes flickering with concern as she looked at her friend. "I don't think that that's going to be a problem. I don't want to cause any issues. If staying away is going to allow me to figure out a few things on how to ensure my parents get justice, I might as well take it." "I think you've been getting everything wrong from the beginning, and that's a problem, but even at that, you still have to be careful. I don't want you to get into trouble." Ava said placing

Chapter: Chapter 7Zara's POV."So, what happened between both of you?!" Ava asked excitedly, jumping on my bed as soon as Noah left. I was annoyed at their interruption in something that I considered very important to me. How did they simply go from wanting to get revenge to liking the man in question?"I don't understand why you're jumping because of someone that you apparently don't know?" Mia waved her hands dismissively before looking at me in horror. "Wait, do we hate him?" "I'm not going to make you hate someone." I evaded the trap question. Ava snapped her hands in my face, "Exactly what I expected you to say. So, we don't hate him, we only hate what he represented the last few years. Got it." She gave a mockery salute that made me a little bit angry at them. They, of all people, knew the drill, and there was no need to bother myself with this one bit. "If you have a lot to deal with, you have to ensure what's done." "I understand you better than you thought I think that you're a little hu

Chapter: Chapter 6One Step At A Time. “We’lll be outside.” Mia and Ava said in a rush before leaving. Noah and I faced each other, with eyes gleaming with various inflections. I didn't want to believe that he of all people was willing to talk to me so calmly. I knew that he probably wanted to make things right which was a great idea and I respected him for it but at the same time, my heart kept on tilting towards disbelief. “You don't need to be afraid of me.” Fright was an understatement for exactly how I felt. I squared my shoulders, in a bid to be in control of my situation. “You don't need to also act strong. I know how hurt you have felt in the last few years when you thought you were abandoned. It is something to ponder on but I'm glad that you are not one of those girls who go about acting like the entire world is about to crash on them.” A little compliment which he wouldn't have given to me on a normal day. I sighed, “You know what? Why exactly did you come here again?” I asked, feeling

Chapter: Chapter 5The folder containing evidence about my parents lay heavy in my hands as dawn broke outside my window. I hadn't slept, spending the entire night poring over bank statements, witness accounts, and cryptic notes written in the triplets' familiar handwriting. Each document painted a darker picture of Selene's involvement in my parents' disappearance.A knock at my door made me jump. "Zara?" Mia called softly. "Are you okay? You weren't answering your phone."I quickly shoved the folder under my mattress before opening the door to find both Mia and Ava looking concerned. They took in my disheveled appearance with worried frowns."We heard about what happened at the ceremony," Ava said, pushing past me into the room. "The whole pack's talking about it.”I forced a smile, trying to mask the turmoil within me. "Yeah, just a little... drama."Mia crossed her arms, her brow furrowing. "It’s more than just drama. You confronted Noah in front of everyone. That can’t be easy."I sighed, moving

Chapter: Chapter 4I don't care what information you have about my parents' disappearance or death," I spat, backing away from Noah's intense gaze. My hands trembled but I forced steel into my voice. "And mind you, my parents aren't dead. I was told they left me. I made a vow to find out what happened, and I will do it myself."The moonlight streaming through the stairwell windows cast harsh shadows across Noah's face as he took a step toward me. "Zara, please-""Keep your information to yourself," I cut him off. "Not that you care. None of you get to use information about my parents to manipulate me."My voice cracked on the last word, but I lifted my chin defiantly. "Watch me as I find out about anyone involved in this. I don't care if it's people close to me. I will crush them all."Noah's expression softened, though his eyes remained intense. "We're not trying to manipulate you, Zara. We're trying to protect you.""Protect me?" I laughed bitterly. "Like you protected me all these years? By making my

Chapter: Chapter 3The moon cast silvery shadows through the great hall's windows as pack members filed in for the ceremony. My hands trembled as I arranged the last of the champagne glasses, trying desperately to avoid catching the triplets' heated gazes. Since our confrontation in the kitchen that morning, their presence had become overwhelming - every brush of their scents making my wolf whine with need.I couldn't shake off the memory of that heated exchange. The truth about my parents’ disappearance looked over me, though the triplets promised to show me rather than telling me.What did Ethan mean when he said he knew everything? Would their disappearance finally be revealed tonight amidst this celebration?"Stop fidgeting," Selene hissed as she passed, her designer heels clicking against the marble floor. "And try not to embarrass us tonight."I bit back a retort, focusing instead on the delicate crystal stems before me. The irony wasn't lost on me - serving at my own mates' ascension ceremony. No
