Rose’s Point of ViewThe next morning, I woke up in Jack’s bed.The last thing I remembered was falling asleep, but I had no idea how I ended up here. My body still ached from our passionate encounter the night before, leaving me both exhausted and strangely content.“Get up and get dressed,” Jack said with a warm smile as he approached me, already fully dressed. He looked impeccable in a custom-tailored black suit, a crisp white ruffled shirt, and a light blue vest that brought out his eyes. “I’m gathering the Blue Lagoon Pack today to officially announce that you’re not James’s daughter.”He sat beside me and gently smoothed my messy hair. I leaned into his touch, then impulsively wrapped my arms around him.“I’m a little nervous,” I admitted, rubbing my eyes before resting my head against his shoulder. His familiar scent filled my senses, comforting and grounding me. Without thinking, I hooked my legs around his waist, clinging to him as if letting go would make everything unravel.
Loren’s Point of ViewI harbored a deep, burning grudge against Jack.He had humiliated me, stripped me of power, and left my pack in ruins. Ever since that defeat, the Black Basin Pack had been clawing its way back from the edge of collapse. I’d been forced to sell high-ranking slaves and part with some of my most valuable possessions just to keep us afloat. Now, even buying a decent bottle of wine made me think twice—something I never imagined I’d endure.Damn him.Jack would pay for what he’d done to me. Revenge wasn’t just a desire—it was a necessity. I couldn’t sleep at night without hearing his name echoing through my fury.Fortunately, fate had thrown me a lifeline—Hilary. Cast out by Jack, she had wasted no time joining the Black Basin Pack. And what a valuable asset she’d become. Hilary was useful in every way imaginable—she knew things, secrets about Jack and Rose—and she was eager to share them, especially after a night in my bed.Together, we’d spent countless hours plotti
Jack’s Point of View:Rose rushed back to the Blue Lagoon Pack, her expression tense as she entered. “Any news from Lucy? Is Loren demanding money or something?” Her voice carried urgency while Ross paced anxiously nearby.“He’s asking for sixty million dollars for Lucy’s release,” I said. “But don’t worry, I’ve already ordered my team to gather the funds.” I hoped my reassurance would ease Ross’s nerves.“Sixty million? That’s insane! Loren kidnapped her just to extort us?” Rose’s face drained of color at the hefty demand.“Let me handle this,” I murmured, pulling her into my arms. Loren’s vendetta was with me, not Lucy. She had been caught in the crossfire, and that guilt weighed heavily on me.“Stay here—I’ll take care of it,” I said, guiding Rose back to the villa.“But what are you going to do?” Her gaze searched mine, anxiety etched into her features. She knew me too well to believe I’d simply pay Loren without retaliation. I wasn’t the type to be humiliated or let someone profi
Lucy’s Point of View:When I first arrived at the Blue Lagoon Pack, my gaze was immediately drawn to their young Alpha, Jack Harris. I had expected an older man, seasoned and rugged—but Jack was something else entirely. He was young, commanding, and undeniably handsome, exuding a natural authority that demanded respect. His very presence seemed destined for leadership, and the loyalty of his pack members reflected that.Something inside me stirred the first time Jack’s eyes met mine. My heart skipped a beat, pounding in a way I couldn’t ignore.But Jack’s attention was fixed solely on Rose. Whether she noticed or chose to ignore it, I wasn’t sure—but his gaze softened with warmth whenever he looked at her. It was that tender look, reserved only for her, that twisted something deep inside me. I silently wished she wouldn’t return his feelings.Rose and I had grown up together—I knew her better than anyone. Even if she never said it out loud, I could tell she liked Jack too. I had seen
Hilary’s point of view I can’t take this anymore. Loren—he’s unbearable. Rough, uncaring…he doesn’t know the first thing about taking care of a woman. No softness, no consideration. Just his demands, his selfishness. I never wanted this—never asked for him. But what choice did I have? Out there in the wild, I wouldn’t have lasted a day after Jack drove me from the Blue Lagoon pack. The wilderness is cruel, and death would’ve found me faster than mercy. So, I stayed with Loren. I survived. But at what cost?Gods, the way he touches me—it’s nothing like what it should be. Not tender. Not loving. Just…possessive. Like I’m some object to use whenever he pleases. And as if that humiliation isn’t enough, he parades around with those other women—those slaves. Don't even bother to hide it. He’ll come to me at night, take what he wants, then stroll off to warm someone else’s bed without so much as a backward glance. There’s no respect. No dignity left for me. I was treated better at Blue Lago
Hilary’s point of viewI screamed—loud, raw, my voice echoing through the walls of this cursed place. Rage boiled inside me, hot and uncontrollable. How dare life keep throwing this at me? How dare everything fall apart again? I wanted to tear everything apart, break every piece of furniture, claw at the walls until my fingers bled—but instead, I screamed until my throat burned.The door burst open. Loren. Of course. He stormed in, face twisted in irritation.“What the hell are you screaming for?” he barked, voice sharp enough to cut glass.I didn’t think—I acted. My hand flew up and smacked him across the face, the slap echoing between us. His head snapped to the side. Good. Good. Let him feel something for once instead of walking around like he owns the damn world.“You’re useless!” I spat, chest heaving. “You were supposed to get the sixty million from Jack. Sixty million! And what do you have? Nothing! Not a single damn thing to show for it!”Loren’s eyes darkened, jaw clenching.
Hilary’s point of view Loren’s words echoed in my head like a terrible song I couldn’t turn off. Lucy likes Jack. No, that couldn’t be right. It had to be a lie. I stared at him, arms crossed, anger bubbling just beneath the surface. “You’re lying,” I snapped, glaring. “You have to be.”He shrugged like it was nothing—like he hadn’t just dropped a bomb. “Say whatever you want, Hilary, but it’s true. Lucy likes him.”Unbelievable. My nails dug into my arms. Every nerve in my body screamed with rage. Of course she would. Why wouldn’t she? Loren even had the audacity to mutter, “Why does every girl seem to fall for him?”That did it. My jaw clenched so hard I thought my teeth might crack. I hated that he was right. I hated how Jack could walk into a room and turn heads like some damn prince out of a fairytale. And worse? It wasn’t just random girls. No. It was my enemies. Rose. Now Lucy—Rose’s best friend—falling for her mate? Disgust twisted in my stomach. Pathetic.And yet… a dark smi
Rose’s Point of view I stretched, , a smile tugging at my lips as the morning light filtered through the curtains. Jack’s scent lingered on the sheets, wrapping me in warmth and comfort. I rolled over, running my hand across the empty side of the bed. He must’ve left early. My heart fluttered with excitement as I remembered why I was in such a good mood—today was wedding dress shopping day!I grabbed my phone from the nightstand, scrolling through my contacts until I found Lucy’s name. She’s going to love this, I thought as I hit the call button. But the phone rang…and rang…and rang. No answer.“Hmm,” I murmured, frowning. That’s odd. Lucy was usually quick to pick up. I tried again. Still nothing.Concern prickled at me, and before I could talk myself out of it, I threw on some clothes and headed to her place. The walk over was short, but my mind raced. Is she sick? Overworked? Reaching her apartment, I knocked lightly.A few moments later, the door creaked open. Lucy stood there in
Bennet’s point of view:I ran in the direction I was coming from.Alan was just a child. He couldn't go far in such a short time.Indeed, I spotted a silhouette fleeing in the forest in front of me after searching for a while. I immediately used my ability to teleport to catch up with him.Alan was so terrified that he stumbled back when he saw me appear. I could understand that he was afraid and hated me now.My face was a mask of rage as I approached him with measured steps."It's not funny for you to test my limits over and over again. Alan, you'd better behave yourself."Then I grabbed his hand and started to walk to the farm.Alan tried to free himself from my grip and said in an innocent and furious voice.“Let go of me!”I tightened my grip on him and said with disdain: "Make your age. Come back docilely with me.""What you did is horrible. I won't help you anymore." Alan continued his desperate struggle as I pulled him forward. His shoes left long marks in the ground.I though
Bennet’s point of view:I bought a farm in the north to use as a temporary prison for wizards who resisted me. I couldn't kill them at the moment, since Alan was with me. Thus, I had no choice but to lock them in the farm to prevent their escape. For more security, I put a magic board around the farm.After Alan found out that I had killed someone, he gradually became depressed. He didn't want to go out with me and stayed locked in the farm all day.Initially, I was convinced that Alan did not have the courage to disobey me. But one night, I could feel that the magical network I had set up was slowly disappearing. Immediately, I got out of bed and ran to the farm. Someone had broken the magical network I used to imprison the wizards! All the wizards were busy rushing out of the farm, their cheers for their freedom echoing in the air. Before I could catch them, they disappeared right in front of me using the magic of teleportation.Alan was there, watching them run away with a smile on
Bennet’s point of view:I dragged Alan with me to the north, where the wizards were much more powerful than those in the south. If I could gather enough people to join me, I could soon wage a war.Alan and I stayed in a small northern town. In order to attract more powerful wizards, I often participated in local meetings in the north.One day, I arrived at an ordinary tavern, filled with the aroma of roast chicken and strong alcohol.The wizards of the north liked to show their power more than the wizards of the south. At that time, several ordinary wizards were competing to see who was the most powerful. However, what they showed were the most basic attack curses that did not even deserve my attention."Good good good. Isn't it Bennet? Why did you come to such a remote place?" One of the wizards recognised me standing in the crowd and approached me with a sarcastic salute."I'm just passing by for a quick look.”I did my best to control my disgust. I had no interest in exchanging wor
Rose’s point of view:For the moment, Jack and I have stayed in the official house of Olivia’s pack. Zoe, on the other hand, followed the wizards of the north every day to inquire about news or updates. She then came back to tell us about the fruit of her work late in the evening.One day, Zoe returned after dusk, exhausted and exhausted from all her energy. She threw her high heels without worrying about the world before throwing herself on the couch crossing her long legs. Her face was streaked with thick makeup and she gave off a strong smell of whiskey."These northern wizards are really good at drinking! I had to drink thirty glasses of wine before I could get them completely drunk. It was hell!"I handed a glass of water to Zoe, which she took with gratitude before swallowing it all at once. After a brief respite, she pulled herself together and analysed what she had learned."I heard from them that Bennet seems to have a mysterious anti-magic power, and it has strengthened his
Olivia’s point of view:Now that I had seen through him, Jared got up from the couch angrily and shouted:"What do you mean?""Do you seriously think I don't know what you're thinking, Jared? You know better than anyone why you came to see me today." I sniffed, took the cup of coffee on the table and put a few pieces of sugar in it. The cubes melted slowly while I stirred the coffee with a spoon.My answer left Jared even more embarrassed and restless. He gave me a disdainful look and tried to reason: "Don't be so ungrateful and arrogant, Olivia. Do you seriously think you can be an Alpha woman for a long time?In the past, everyone was afraid of the Wouri River Pack because of your father. Now that Louis is dead, all those who have been removed by him before will naturally not let things happen. Many packs want your territory and your resources. Although the Green Pine Pack's army is a little weak, it's more than enough to help you. But do you dare to refuse me? I'm afraid that the W
Olivia’s point of view:As I listened to Jared's hasty explanation with a frown, I noticed that there was something wrong with his choice of words.Although he said he wanted to help me lighten my burdens, his condescending perception of women was evident in the way he spoke. He sounded as if he was a hero or a knight in sparkling armour coming to save me, the damsel in distress. It was degrading.He was far too arrogant for my taste.Even if I wanted to get married, I couldn't find an ounce of sincerity from him. Not to mention that I was not looking for a husband at the moment. I just wanted to focus only on my homework as an Alpha pack. "Do you honestly think it is necessary for an Alpha woman to get married? That this is more important than anything else in this world? Let's say I married you. When that would happen, you would gain authority over my pack and all the werewolves would cling to each of your words. The way I see it, this marriage would be much more beneficial to you
Olivia’s point of view:The next day, my phone rang when I was having my usual breakfast. To my surprise, it was from Alpha Bill. I didn't expect him to call me so early in the morning.Why did this old bastard call me unexpectedly? Was he asking for a fight? Well, it was perfectly good! I myself wanted to have one.I took my phone, ready to talk to him.However, something even more unexpected happened."Hello, Olivia, sorry to bother you so soon. Regarding our discussion yesterday, I am ready to accept the changes to the contract you propose. I was a little reckless yesterday and I didn't think so. Honestly, now that I've slept on it, I think the conditions you've proposed for our cooperation are excellent." Bill's way of speaking was, to put it simply, extremely humble and polite. There was no trace of the arrogance he showed yesterday.Suffice it to say that I was stunned, quite stunned by his sudden change of attitude. It was strange, and I didn't understand why he was acting like
Olivia’s point of view:After becoming the Alpha of the Wouri RiverPack, I mentally prepared myself to face the challenges ahead. Because I was an Alpha woman, my problems and difficulties were much more important than those of an Alpha man. It was exhausting, but it was in my expectations.Rose was concerned about my well-being.Being the kind person she was, she kept learning about my current situation and seemed eager to help me as she could. I told her everything, without sparing any detail."Soon after I took office, I received many complaints in my file. We may seem to live in peace right now, but in truth, there are werewolves who don't accept me like their Alpha. They openly turned against me several times during our meetings. They suggested making other male werewolves the Alpha.Some even went so far as to sow trouble in the pack! They spread ugly rumours that the pack was in trouble because of my mismanagement. They wanted to force me to resign. For now, I have only managed
Rose's point of view:Shortly after I was discharged from the hospital, Zoe went to the villa for a visit. After Bennet kidnapped Alan, she had taken active measures to find Alan's whereabouts."You heard from other wizards yesterday that they had seen Bennet appear with his men several times in the north. They may be in the north at the moment, but as you can guess, this place is a little too far. Do you want to go?"Zoe looked very anxious when she asked us for our opinion. She was probably deeply worried about Alan."I also want to bring Alan back, and I want to help Jack regain his memory as soon as possible. But I don't know if we can succeed on this trip. After all, Bennet is very powerful."Of course, I wanted to venture into the north. The choice was obvious. I turned to look at Jack, who was leaning against the sofa. He had the whole pack to manage, so it would probably be difficult for him to leave the pack behind."So here we go. I'll let Marvin manage the pack while I'm aw
