Jack’s Point of ViewThe battle raged on for days, each hour stretching longer than the last. The Wouri River Pack, already weakened from our previous confrontation, struggled to hold their ground. Meanwhile, the Blue Lagoon Pack had deployed nearly all its forces, pressing forward with relentless force. Victory was within reach.As my army neared the entrance of the Wouri River Pack, the gates suddenly creaked open. Aaron stepped forward, his posture tense, his exhaustion evident in every movement. His clothes were torn, his face hollow with fatigue.“Jack, stop!” His voice was raw, stripped of its usual arrogance. “What will it take to end this war?”I sat in my car, watching him through narrowed eyes. Without hesitation, I lowered my window, my tone colder than ice.“Return Rose.”Silence stretched between us, thick and suffocating. Neither side moved, the battlefield momentarily frozen in a fragile truce.Aaron let out a slow, weary breath. His hands curled into fists at his sides
Jack’s point of view:I withdrew from the territory of the Wouri River Pack with my army and I started the trip back to the Blue Lagoon Pack.As we still had distance to go to reach the territory of the blue lagoon pack and Rose looked a little exhausted, we settled in a hotel in a nearby small town for the night.I took Rose to the room. She sat on the bed without saying anything. She looked absently out the window with crazy eyes."Do you want to shower first?" I handed her a bathrobe, squatted next to her and gently grabbed her cold hands. My eyes lingered on the dark circles under her eyes. "You must have been exhausted these last few days. Take a shower and go to bed early, okay?"Rose’s empty gaze finally passed from the window to my face. She didn't recognise me in any way, but stared at me."I seem a little familiar to you?” I stuck a little smile on my face and placed her cold palm on my cheek, hoping that it would awaken a memory.Rose nodded submissively, but she said nothi
Jack’s point of view:Rose stabbed my chest with a dagger, sinking the sharp blade into me without an ounce of hesitation. She acted quickly and decisively, as if she were doing a daily task.I pressed the wound in a hurry, the bloodgushing out of my fingers. I forced myself to endure the acute pain. Raising my head, I looked at Rose in disbelief, my lips pursed in a sinister frown.Because she was my love, I had lowered my guard.Suddenly, Rose’s empty eyes widened slightly. Pain, shock and horror passed through them for a brief moment. However, a fraction of a second later, they returned cold and insensitive. She then abruptly removed the dagger from my chest. "Rose.." The colour dissipated from my face as it turned pale. I called Rose’s name weakly by instinct but I never wanted to blame her. I knew she had done this because she was under Aaron's control.Outside, thunder rumbled and heavy rains fell on the earth."Just... stay here! You're not going anywhere." I quickly noticed
Jack’s Point of ViewWhen I woke up again, the storm was still raging outside. Thunder rolled across the sky, rattling the windows as rain pounded against the glass. I was lying in bed, my chest wrapped in thick layers of gauze, my body stiff with lingering pain.Marvin was sitting on the sofa nearby, his gaze sharp and alert. The moment he noticed I was awake, he immediately rose and approached my bedside.“Mika is resting in another room,” he informed me. “She exhausted herself using too much of her healing power. Alpha, you were stabbed directly in the heart. You should be dead, but thanks to Mika’s abilities and quick treatment, you survived. She told me it was Natalie who attacked you?”Marvin’s expression was grim, his voice unusually severe. He had always been the level-headed Beta, the calm strategist of the pack. But now, his tone was edged with something rare—anger.“It’s true,” I confirmed, my voice steady despite the weight of my words. “Aaron drugged her.”I glanced down
Aaron’s Point of ViewTo keep Jack from suspecting anything, I carefully orchestrated a small skirmish between my soldiers and the Blue Lagoon Pack’s forces. For several days, we engaged in battle, just enough to make it seem like I was struggling. Then, when the timing was right, I staged my defeat and released Rose.Before letting her go, I gave her one final command—find an opportunity to kill Jack and escape to the Wouri River Pack. Jack trusted her completely, which meant getting close enough to strike wouldn’t be difficult.That night, the storm raged on. Lightning slashed across the sky, illuminating the darkened streets for fleeting moments, while thunder shook the earth beneath us. Rain pounded against the trees, drenching everything in its path.I waited a short distance from the hotel where Rose had checked in, my car idling in the shadows. The minutes stretched on until, finally, a figure emerged from the darkness.She ran toward me, soaked to the bone, her white dress cli
Rose’s Point of ViewI had stabbed Jack. My hands hadn’t trembled, my body hadn’t hesitated—but inside, a storm raged.Jack was my friend. Every memory I had with him remained crystal clear in my mind. I knew I shouldn’t have hurt him, and yet, I had. I had fought against it, tried to resist, but my will was no longer my own.Every fiber of my being was bound to Aaron. His words shaped my reality, and his commands controlled my actions. I was a prisoner in my own body, trapped in a nightmare where I was forced to obey.Each day bled into the next, an endless cycle of torment, confusion, and emotions I couldn’t control.That NightI awoke to a sudden pressure over my mouth. My body stiffened, but then a familiar voice whispered against my ear.“It’s me.”Aaron.He slipped under the covers, his arms encircling me as his lips traced soft kisses along my cheek and neck. My first instinct was to push him away, but my body betrayed me.He owned me.“And what if we had a little fun?” he murm
"Take your dirty hands off my mate, you filthy bitch!" I heard a she-wolf roar with such ferocity as though she was going to kill me. Before I could even say anything, I felt a tight slap land on my face. Almost immediately, my vision blurred and I felt a little dizzy. "You pathetic whore! How dare you seduce my mate?" The fat she-wolf shook her fists furiously and cursed at me. "Excuse me? Are you blind? Your mate grabbed my hand first." I clutched my cheek and looked at her with a shocked expression on my face. Hadn't this she-wolf seen her mate ate me up with his lustful eyes? Much to my chagrin and confusion, I ended up facing the wrath of this unreasonable she-wolf in the form of another slap to my face. I fell to the ground and my ears were buzzing as if there were thousands of ants screaming inside my head. "You are just a mere slave in the pack. How dare you talk back to me like that? Don't you know who I am?" The she-wolf pushed me to the ground and began punching an
"What are you going to do?" The hair on the back of my neck stood up when I saw the way Jack was assessing Andrea. Andrea was still so young. Would he be so barbaric to torture a child like her? Jack grinned when he saw the pure terror on my face. He seemed to take great pleasure in seeing people's petrified faces. I didn't know why he was like that. "I can let you go, but..." He wiped his hands gingerly, as if he had just touched the filthiest thing on Wthis earth. "I'm not sure what will happen to your sister." "No! I will do whatever you ask. Please leave my sister alone," I begged in horror as I tried to stop him. "Take her away," he commanded, ignoring my pleas completely. "Alpha, should we take her or the younger sister?” one of the guards asked.“The younger one, of course."Jack said as his malicious eyes bored into me. His order both shocked and terrified me. I crawled towards him faster than I ever had in my life, and threw myself at his feet as I begged for mercy. "Plea

Jack’s Point of ViewDays after issuing the declaration of war, I led my army to the borders of the Wouri River Pack. The tension in the air was thick, charged with the promise of battle. Aaron and his forces stood in our way, waiting for us. Even at a glance, I could tell his numbers were insufficient.My gaze swept across his ranks, searching. But Rose wasn’t among them.I stepped out of my car, my boots pressing into the rough, scattered stones beneath me. Every move I made exuded the silent fury brewing inside me. My voice was cold, edged with barely restrained rage.“Aaron. Hand over Rose. Now.”Aaron sat lazily in his car, clad in a sharp gray suit, exuding nothing but smug arrogance. He arched an eyebrow and let out a mocking scoff. A silver gun rested casually in his hand, as if he had already won.“I won’t be giving Rose to you,” he said smoothly. “She belongs to me now.” A twisted smile curled his lips as he flicked his fingers, signaling his men.A heartbeat later, Rose was
Aaron’s Point of ViewThe dense forest stretched before us, towering elms lining the road as we drove through the quiet night. Rose sat silently by the window, her gaze fixed outside, lost in thought. I, on the other hand, was reveling in my victory, pleased with how smoothly everything had gone.That satisfaction shattered the moment my phone screen lit up with Olivia’s number. The call interrupted my navigation, and immediately, my mood soured.Why the hell was this woman calling me now of all times?“What is it?” I answered curtly, irritation lacing my voice.“Aaron, where the hell are you? What’s going on?!” Olivia’s furious voice exploded through the speaker. “Didn’t you say you were negotiating a truce? The Blue Lagoon Pack just declared war on us! They’re demanding we hand over their Luna, or they’ll annihilate us!”Her anger burned through every word, but it was the accusation that followed that truly caught my attention.“You didn’t—tell me you didn’t kidnap Rose again! What
Jack’s point of view:I went to Rose’s dormitory and knocked on the door, which was opened by Bianca. My sudden arrival shocked her."Jack? What are you doing here at such a late hour?""I came to see Rose. Is she awake?" When I entered the room, I expected Rosse to still be there. My eyes swept the room and I realised that there was no one else here except Bianca and me. Rose was no longer in the room."Where is Rose, Bianca?” I turned to look at her and asked her in a tense voice."She's fine. She woke up some time ago. An hour ago, she received a phone call and went out to meet a friend. But, she was behaving a little strangely, and she was pompome, as if she was preparing for a date," Bianca replied with a craving stuck between her teeth."I don't think she went to meet a friend." I took a few moments to think carefully.An hour had passed since Rose had left the dormitory. I walked to the window and noticed the cosmetics placed on the table that she had used. My mind thought back
