Secret plans

Tamara's pov

Jack continued speaking, "I promise you sweetheart, Kate will only stay with us until she is healed, and after that, I will personally make sure she leaves."

I felt a surge of annoyance. This was an old lie he had told me in the past. He had sworn up and down that he would kick Kate out, but he never did. Instead, he laid back and watched as Kate took over everything I owned.

And that same thing would happen again if I didn’t find a way to stop them both now.

But I couldn't let him see my anger. So I forced another smile and pretended to accept his apology. "Thank you, Jack. I appreciate your concern."

Jack moved closer, and caressed my face. “Anything for you my love. You know I would do anything it takes to make you happy. I love you so much Tammie.” He said and I tried very hard not to gag.

How could he lie so boldly like that, especially while he was planning to kill me?

Jack bent to kiss me, but I turned my face away. "Darling, not tonight, I'm tired," I said, keeping my voice steady.

His expression faltered for a moment but he recovered quickly. "Of course my love. Let me bring you some milk before you go to bed," he offered,. "It would help you rest."

Before I could refuse, he left the room, and returned with a glass of milk a few seconds later.

I reluctantly accepted it, but instantly noticed how he lingered around, anxiously waiting for me to drink it.

why? what was in it?

My mind immediately flashed back to how he had poisoned me with tea, and I became even more hesitant to drink it. But I didn’t want him to know something was off, so I pretended to take a sip.

“Thank you Jack, it’s so good," I said, pretending to enjoy it.

Jack smiled widely, and helped me get into bed.

I suddenly remembered that in our past life, Jack always brought me milk before bed every single day.

I had always thought he did it out of love, but now that I knew how much he hated me, I had to find out why he was he so insistent on giving me milk before bed.

I feigned another sip, and pretended to get something from my closet,

But I quickly opened the window and poured the milk outside. Then hurried back to bed like I had finished the milk.

Jack kissed me goodnight and I lay down, pretending to fall asleep.

After a while, I heard him softly calling my name. I kept my eyes shut and remained still.

Soon, I felt him waving a hand in front of my face, testing to see if I was really asleep. When I didn't react, he sighed softly and left the room.

I waited a few moments and then slipped out of bed to follow after him. I heard him enter the room next to ours—it was Kate's room.

‘Of course,’ I thought and pressed my ear to the door, to catch what they were saying.

"Did you give her the milk with the sleeping pills?" Kate's voice asked in an irritated tone.

"Yes, she’s sound asleep so we can fuck as loud as we want," Jack replied, "But I'm worried you might have given too much." He asked in a surprisingly concerned tone.

"Oh, don't be ridiculous," Kate snapped. "Why are you so worried about that bitch? I thought you hated her? And you don’t have to worry, I didn't use enough to kill her yet. I still have some delicious plans for our Tamara first." She laughed and Jack joined her.

“Now fuck me Jack,” Kate moaned, “I’ve been thinking about you all day, I almost couldn’t wait for that bitch to fall asleep.” She cooed and they proceeded to have sex loud enough for the whole house to hear.

My blood ran cold and tears filled my eyes as I slipped back into my room. So this had been going on for years and I didn’t know. They were drugging me, controlling me and making fun of me behind my back, thinking I would never find out.

Well too bad for them, I was prepared this time. They would not get away with this. I would find a way to stop them. And I would make them pay for everything they had done to me.

But first, I had to had to find someone powerful enough to protect my pack from Jack when I broke up with him. But who would that be?

My mind came up with only one answer and my mood turned sour.

Alpha Dante. Alpha Dante, was the only name I could think of. He was the most powerful Alpha in the region, powerful enough to protect me from any attack Jack could bring.

But he was also the same person who would kill my parents in the future, so how could I trust or even ask him for help?

Maya my wolf spoke up. “But Alpha Dante hasn’t killed them yet here. So if we can convince him to not attack us, then we can save our parents and every one else. Then we can also use him to frighten Jack off.” Maya said and I felt like shouting in joy.

Maya was brilliant as always. She had found a solution. If we could convince Alpha Dante to form a partnership with us, we could build a relationship and find a way to stop him from killing our parents.

It was brilliant! Now I just had to talk to Alpha Dante and convince him to stop hating me.
