Selene:

I was fuming! No, not just that. I was filled with incandescent rage so deep and foul that I could hardly stop myself from hissing at Ryker’s and Keiliegh’s exit. That girl was clinging onto MY man like a fucking barnacle it was frustrating.

Why the hell would he reject me? And on top of it, show her off to Arnold and I?!

My eyes hadn’t missed how Ryker had lit up immediately he saw her when we were talking. He had NEVER looked at me like that even once. He had always used to be a stone cold man at worst, and massively indifferent at best. Or at least I thought that was how he was until that bitch came around.

And the fact that she wore a dainty gold jewelry instead of the silver ones I had gifted to her..! Had Ryker been the one to get that necklace for her? It was exquisite!

I rose from the table seething as Arnold had not even said a word yet.

“Arnold! Why are you silent?” I turned to him. “Are you just going to let them walk away like that?!”

    RomanEven though I had kept a stoic look as Selene raged at me, it didn’t change the fact that I was angry. Keiliegh had chosen not to see me, again. It gave me a giant suspicion that she has been avoiding me, and I didn’t know why.Headed towards Alpha Ryker’s study, I wondered if the Alpha knew anything about it. Was there something he was keeping from me?Ten minutes later I was in the study, my head bowed as I made my reports to Alpha Ryker about the task I was given.“I see,” he hummed from his desk when I finished my report. “It doesn’t seem like there’s been much developments after all. Keep me posted on whatever happens afterward. You may leave.”“Yes Alpha,” I replied, and though he dismissed me, I hesitated at the order, still thinking of Keiliegh.Alpha Ryker must have noticed because he spoke again.“You have something to say, then say it, Beta,” he demanded in a commanding voice.I nodded, unable to hold back against the willpower of an Alpha.“I wanted to ask…” it was h

    Keiliegh:I had been avoiding Roman since, with little intention of meeting him anytime soon. However, as I heard his voice behind me, I realized I had no choice now, but to see him.I was picking some nice flowers to bring to Alpha Ryker as thanks for defending me the previous breakfast… but now this happened. “Roman,” I shifted as I glanced briefly at him. “What are you doing here?”“Why do you ask that, darling? Do you mean I can’t come to see you anymore?” I was dumbfounded as he stepped forward and took my hand. “How is Alpha Ryker treating you?”That question made me equally surprised and suspicious. What was he expecting me to say?I picked my words carefully, mindful of whom I was saying it to.“He treats me as a guest in this pack, as one should,” I replied. I deliberately didn’t mention I and Ryker had been spending more time together than usual. It wouldn’t do to mention that, no matter what. Not after Roman had alreay confessed his feelings to me.Roman took my hand, be

    KeilieghMy eyes were forced open as I felt a burning sensation within me.I let out a whine, twisting in the sheets on the bed and wondering how I managed to fall asleep. What was going on this time? I tried my best to think but my thoughts were like catching sand in my palms.“Miss?” I heard a voice and raised my head to see the maid.“Water,” I called out desperately.She nodded and rushed to bring me the pitcher and a glass, and instead of taking the glass I grabbed the pitcher and began to drink large gulps from it. The water soothed my thermostat as it went down. But it only was a temporary relief.I sniffled, handing the now empty pitcher back to the maid. What was happening to me again?There was a knock on the door followed by the door opening, and before me stood Alpha Ryker.His eyes met mine and I saw his dilated pupils. Just seeing him made me realize how much he was meant to be here.“Ryker,” his name slipped out of my lips and be immediately turned to the maid who look

    Ryker:Finally, I thought, filled with relief.She was asleep.I watched the rise and fall of Keiliegh’s chest, aware that it was already last midnight.Every bone in my body wanted to stay, even though the effects of the heat had reduced a little to a simmer. But I didn’t trust that I could control myself.With a sigh, i began shifting off the bed, slowly so as to not startle my mate awake.Her arms were loosely wrapped around my waist and I heard her mumble something under her breath.Pausing to check that she hadn’t woken up, i couldn’t help the corner of my lips curling upwards at the thought that sprang up in my head.She looked so damn adorable, clinging to me like this.After a couple of false starts, I managed to extricate myself from her, and I covered her body carefully with the knot blanket. It was a warm night, and though the windows were wide open, I knew the duvet would be too uncomfortable for her.Before this girl came into my life, I didn’t think I was a soft-hearted

    Roman:“She is having breakfast with the Alphas and Lady Selene,” the mousy-looking maid who I had asked of Keiliegh’s whereabouts responded to me with, before bowing and returning to her duties of taking the towels to the laundry room.I grit my teeth and walked off while the maid walked in the opposite direction. I headed towards the dining hall in long strides, wondering if she was with Alpha Ryker. The thought incensed me to no end, and I increased my pace, not caring whether or not I would bump into anyone.As I neared the dining hall, I came to a stop as soon as I saw saw Alpha Ryker and Keiliegh as they left the dining hall. My eyes were drawn to their hands, linked together.“Alpha Ryker,” my voice was rough, filled with forced calm as I bowed to him. “Rise, Roman,” The man i wanted to kill the most for touching what was mine ordered me and I raised my head and straightened. Without saying anything more to me, turned to Keiliegh and murmured, in a soft voice and find tone I n

    Selene:I was in the worst fucking mood ever.Snarls left my lips as I walked down the hallway, feeling like my body was in fire from the rage I was mired in.Pissed. I was pissed!I was pissed that I had to withstand Ryker fawning over Keiliegh, that goddess-damned bitch, at breakfast.I noticed a maid who was headed the other way and suddenly stopped upon seeing me.“You,” I growled at her. “Where is Arnold?!”She bowed down to me, looking like she was about to start whimpering. I relished in the fear that the girl felt upon seeing me, the Lady of the House.“Madam, I don’t know,” the girl kept her head bowed as she spoke. “I… i think the Alpha isn’t in the house at this moment, madam.”Damn it!Where could he have gone? What reason would Arnold have to skip breakfast when he always longed to have meals with me?!“Get out of my sight,” I hissed at the maid who sniffled in response and walked around her. I was just about to turn the corner and head to my bedroom - for some much neede

    Arnold:The sun was high up in the sky when I finally deemed it fit for me to return. My entire body dripped with sweat which stuck my cotton t-shirt to my chest, and left an imprint of my toned abs on it. I didn’t care though. It was satisfying to return from a long spar, and I had utilized three of our warriors to my benefit.Though my entire body hurt from the workout, the sparring had reduced the strange feelings I held to a lower intensity. Now, I had made up my mind to avoid Keiliegh and Ryker for the time being.It was because I, more than anything, wanted to figure out what was going on in me. Certainly it couldn’t be that I was falling for that girl, could it?Entering my bedroom without much fanfare, I jumped into the shower and washed myself off quickly. After that I left the bathroom, walking out nude as the day I was born, and not even bothering to put on a towel around my waist.Water dripped down my body as I air dried, thinking of the prospects of getting some much nee

    Ryker:Arnold… did not look very happy to see me.I wondered why briefly before deciding that it didn’t matter.I held the book on mate bonds in my hand, which I had found just this morning. It had been an exciting thing to inform Arnold of, that the mate bond he so hated would be easily shattered without any side effects (at least after the full moon passed).“What the fuck are you doing here Ryker?” Arnold asked me, no, demanded of me.I was still a little surprised to see a hostile gaze on my brother’s face. But it was alright. I wasn’t planning on staying long anyway.“What’s wrong Arnold? I can’t come and check on my twin brother? You weren’t at breakfast so I thought it best to see what you were up to,” I said, before standing, the book still in my hand.His eyes narrowed at me, and he hissed, crossing his arms.“Ryker, for fucking fuck’s sake, I’m not in the damn mood to deal with your shit right now,” Arnold growled, before pointing to the door and glari at me. “Leave. Now.”“

Jake was beyond shocked that things would take a turn like that in such short time.A couple of minutes ago, I was doubting if I would live again and he was acting all powerful, just like the same way he did in the beginning, making everyone asides him look like a weakling only to end up as one. A few hours ago, my life was in his hands but in such a short time, his life ended up in my hands. How sweet it was for the tables to be turned!Arnold was not comfortable throughout the journey and Ryker did try to ask what was going on with him.

We had left sorrowfully, not on our own accord but now, we were returning victoriously and happily.Arnold barely smiled as e

    KeleighI was not myself anymore. I wished death would embrace me with its cold arms but I also wished to see Ryker one last time. I had gone through so much in just a short time of being there.I had been ill-treated and locked away from everyone else. Alpha Jake did confess to me that the only purpose why he tried to come back for me was because he knew the type of power that was in me and had come for it. I was dazed.I guess Ryker was the only one who genuinely cared about me. I had continually wait each day for death when I suddenly got to know that the pack was being attacked. I had no idea what was going on but my heart raced so hard as I feared something could have happened to me.All the guards that watched over the prisoners had gone out as well to check what was going on and had begun to battle just like everyone else. We were however able to release ourselves.My joy knew no bounds the moment I got to know that Alpha Ryker was up and healthy once again. To my greater surpr

    ~KeleighEverything did seem off and strange. First, it was Arnold’s confession down to his actions and now, Roman's speech?I was confused and I was beginning to lose my mind. I had no idea of what was going on but I sure did know that I was not going insane.They were trying so hard to make me feel like I was losing my sanity and I knew I was not. I was heartbroken at the fact that everyone had decided to make me feel miserable.I wanted to thank Roman for advising me the first time about the brothers even though I had turned deaf ears to him but again, I remembered he had played a great role in making everything complicated.My whole world was spinning and it felt like I was not going to survive it. I was just not myself. I did not feel so good. I looked up at Roman. How could he betray me once again? I guess I had been such a fool to trust him that much. I should not have listened to him. I had no idea what the arrangement between him and Arnold was but seeing Arnold on the floor,

    ~KeleighMy whole seemed to be coming to an end the moment I got to know that he had been abducted. I had never felt so scared and worried in my entire life like I did over the few days that passed. First, it was Selene trying to hurt me and kill me.My soul had left my body the moment the knife was placed on my neck. I was even more shocked or perhaps, startled when I got to know that she was the one. She was the last person I expected to see. How had she escaped? How had she come into my room? How had she know where I was staying? How had she been able to access me?I had so many questions ringing through my head at the same time but the one that yelled at me the most was if I was going to die without seeing Ryker ever again. I would be so hurt and so shattered never to see him again.That had however given me the strength to fight her back and it had turned into a wrestle. I would rather die trying than not attempting at all. That would hurt me the most.Thankfully, Arnold and Ryke

    ~ArnoldI had not been happy with the development that was happening at the pack.“Alpha Arnold….” Roman had called out to me one night. I had begun to contemplate on what to do but nothing seemed to cross my mind. I just could not let her go so easily. I had to do something about it.“What do you want?” I questioned, turning my back to him. I expected him to leave but he was hell bent on coming to me even further.“I do not want you here. You should leave now while you have the chance. I just want you to…”“I can help you.” He suddenly spoke, causing me to arch my brows. I did not expect to hear any of what he had just said.“Help me? For what?”There was definitely no way he would have an idea of what was going on with me so what help was he talking about?“I know everything. I know you want Kaleigh to yourself. Not because you like or love her but….” He looked around suspiciously. “only because you are interested in her power.” He whispered. I feigned ignorance at first. I could no

    KeleighHis words were quite surprising but I decided not to take it to heart. I tried so hard to not think of all he had said but the words kept coming and resounding over and over and over again. He could not be kept behind bars no matter what he did?My mind drifted off to the day I asked Ryker to put him behind bars and how much he had defended him. Could it be true? I shook the thoughts out of my mind immediately. It was not possible. I could tell Ryker cared for me more than Arnold did or was it the other way round?Perhaps, because I liked Ryker even more, I believed he cared for me more? No, not at all. I shook my head. I wasn’t going to let him manipulate me. I knew he was quite manipulative but what could be his gain at that point?He claimed he was no longer interested in me. Being with Arnold would not be of any help to him neither would me being with Ryker be of any disadvantage to him. Was he really acting that way because he cared about me as a friend?Roman was quite d

    ~KeleighI missed him so much. I hated the fact that I could not see him when I wanted to. I had no idea why he suddenly became so busy but I was quite hurt that he was away from me. Arnold did try to make me feel better numerous times but it just could not compare.I didn’t feel the connection I felt with Ryker. The bond just wasn’t there. He did try to send me gifts to perhaps, make me feel better but it just wasn’t working. I missed Ryker so much. I would constantly stay close to the court even though the guards would sometimes try to stop me from going any closer. If they hadn’t stopped me most times, I could have gone in there to meet him most of the times. I wasn’t comfortable with his absence anymore.“Ryker is trying to get his mind off you.” Roman suddenly walked up to me one afternoon while I was all alone in the garden. I rolled my eyes, immediately disgusted by his presence. Why was it so hard for him to understand that I did not want to have anything to do with him? Why c

    ~ArnoldI had been quite busy with all that was going on in the pack yet all I was doing was in the interest of the pack. Ryker had been unresponsive like before and had left all the major tasks of the pack to me. All he did was stayed with Keleigh while leaving me with all other important things.Keleigh on the other hand was no longer interested in me. She paid even more attention to Ryker and treated me like I did not exist. I tried so hard to make her see me even more but she seemed to be very busy to not care about me, not even for once.“The necklace sure does look quite good on me, does it not?” Keleigh questioned, a smile on her face. She seemed quite excited but it did shatter my heart. With excitement, she zoomed off.I watched in silence as she walked away and Ryker did have a smile on his face as he watched her walk away.“She is very beautiful, is she not?” he questioned, probably still daydreaming. I was not in the mood for all that so I crossed my hands behind him and w

    ~RomanI was quite disappointed in the fact that things were not going my way. I could not get Keleigh out of the pack. The security had been quite tighter and I could not get close to her.Every of the maids and guards were being monitored. No one was allowed to go out of the pack neither was anyone allowed to move freely. A lot of thoughts crossed my mind all at the same time.I had to get her out no matter how hard I tried. Keleigh had tried to keep an eye on me and I could tell I was being monitored by her hence I tried everything within my power to make sure I stayed out of her reach. My appearance in public had reduced. I knew I had to do something to get out of the whole mess I had gotten into.When she was attacked and claimed I knew about the attack, I was quite surprised. Of course, I had the intentions to get her out but I had not done anything. I just wanted her to be safe as well. I had to do everything within my power to make sure I got her out.At first, I believed Jake
