Jack’s Point of View

Hilary’s hysterical cries echoed behind me. She was talking about the fire. Her words struck a chord deep within me, pulling me back to one of the darkest winters of my life.

Flashback—Years Ago

It was an especially cold winter, and the dungeon reeked of rot and despair. That day, James hadn’t shown up for his usual inspection, which should have brought relief to all of us imprisoned there. No beatings, no whippings, and no cruel games. But his absence only served as a grim reminder of the horror he was capable of—the corpse of a young werewolf still hung from the city wall, rotting in the sun as a warning. I couldn’t shake the thought: Am I next?

The dungeon was packed with werewolf slaves crammed into iron cells and cages. The air was thick with the stench of feces and decay. I was trapped in the deepest part of the dungeon when I heard it—a loud, piercing scream from outside.

Then, I saw it. Flames illuminated the fortress walls, and smoke began to seep into th

    Hilary’s Point of ViewI knew Jack better than anyone else. He was the kind of person who cherished his family, his friends, and anyone who had ever shown him kindness. That’s why lying to him about saving him from the fire had been the smartest decision of my life.The truth was, I hadn’t saved him. During that chaotic fire, when so many werewolves perished, I had been consumed by my own fear. I had run for my life, too terrified to think about anyone else, let alone someone locked in the deepest cell of the dungeon. I didn’t even know who had saved him that day.But fate worked in strange ways. After the fire, the guards from the Maroon Hill pack had thrown me into the cell next to Jack’s. It was then I saw him up close—the werewolf everyone whispered about in hushed tones. Jack was special. Even in captivity, surrounded by filth and despair, he stood apart from the rest.He was everything I admired: brave, intelligent, and undeniably handsome. His pale skin made him seem delicate,

    Rose’s Point of ViewAfter Jack left the villa, the butler escorted me to a small room located on the upper floor, directly across from Jack’s bedroom.Calling Jack’s villa “luxurious” would be an understatement—it was more of a palace than a home. Even the modest maid’s quarters assigned to me were far more elegant than any room I’d ever lived in. The balcony attached to my room was expansive, and the bathroom was fitted with advanced, smart technology. It reminded me of the comforts I’d once known before my father passed away.Jack had instructed me to prepare breakfast and dinner for him. I assumed he’d also have me handle chores like laundry and cleaning. Part of me even dreaded the thought of being made to scrub toilets or being locked in the basement again.“Is there anything else you’d like me to do, sir?” I asked politely, turning to the butler behind me.“For now, that’s all,” he replied, a kind smile on his face. “By the way, you don’t need to address me so formally. Just ca

    After finishing my responsibilities for the pack, I returned to the villa. For reasons I couldn’t quite explain, the thought of Rose being there waiting for me stirred an unusual excitement within me.“Is Rose back yet?” I asked Peter as I walked into the main hall. I’d already scanned the villa upon my arrival, but there had been no sign of her.“No, sir. She’s likely still at the hospital,” Peter replied, continuing his tasks without looking up.I nodded curtly, hiding the faint disappointment that crossed my face.“She didn’t even bother to prepare your dinner? How dare she ignore your orders so blatantly? You should punish her,” Uriel sneered in my mind, his voice laced with venom.“She’s a doctor now,” I retorted, trying to stay calm as a sharp ache spread through my head. “Her work involves caring for the sick. I can understand if she’s busy.”“An excuse,” Uriel spat. “Don’t you see? Jack, you’re letting her get away with this. Tell me, what’s your plan here? You’re not intendin

    Hilary’s povI stormed back into my villa, slamming the door behind me. Even the staff, who once treated me with respect, now cast disdainful glances in my direction.Damn it! This is all because of that wretched Rose. Everything has been going downhill for me lately.I locked myself in my bedroom, throwing myself onto the bed in frustration. A few moments later, my phone rang. It was Loren.“You useless slut! Rose has been taken, and I want my twenty million dollars back immediately!” Loren barked, his tone dripping with fury. Losing both the money and Rose had stripped him of any pretense of civility.“Jack seized the money. There’s nothing I can do about it,” I replied meekly. “He’s blocked all my accounts. If you want it back, you’ll have to deal with him directly.”“I don’t care!” Loren snapped, his voice sharp enough to make me flinch. “You accepted the money, and you’re going to repay me, even if you have to sell a kidney or your body to do it. If you don’t, I’ll make sure you’

    Loren’s PerspectiveThe more I dwelled on it, the more my anger grew. Jack—an Alpha of a newly established pack—had dared to speak to me with such arrogance. True, he had led his pack to victory over the Maroon Hill pack, once the strongest in the region, but that didn’t mean my pack was weak.How dare he look down on me?The thought of the twenty million dollars I’d lost made my blood boil. That amount could have bought me several stunning slaves or funded any number of lucrative ventures. No—I couldn’t just let it go. I had to get that money back.Grabbing my phone, I dialed Hilary.“Jack confiscated the money. There’s nothing I can do,” Hilary mumbled on the other end, her voice low.What? Jack had taken my twenty million dollars?As she went on about her so-called financial struggles, my rage intensified. I had to clench my fist to keep myself from throwing the phone. Hilary was lying. Jack treated her well, even spoiling her. She always flaunted luxury clothes and jewelry. If she

    “Alpha, Jack, this is the invitation to the Alpha meeting.” Marvin handed me the ornate envelope.The Alpha meeting, a significant event held every two years, brought together the most influential leaders of the werewolf world. Before I became Alpha of the Blue Lagoon pack, I had accompanied my father to these gatherings. They were grand and full of pomp. Yet, given that my pack was still young, I hadn’t expected the council of elder werewolves to include us this year.“The meeting will be hosted by Loren’s Black Basin pack,” I muttered as I scanned the letter, my brow furrowing deeply.Loren? Hosting an event as demanding and costly as the Alpha meeting? The man was notoriously stingy and self-serving. On top of that, he had recently suffered a hefty financial loss—twenty million dollars, to be exact. It didn’t add up. Why would Loren willingly shoulder the burden of organizing such an expensive gathering?Something about this didn’t sit right. My instincts screamed that Loren was sc

    My men and I set out for the Black Basin pack, reaching its border just as the sun began to rise.“Stay alert,” I instructed, my voice firm. “We’re entering the Black Basin territory. Keep your guard up.”Rubbing sleep from their eyes, my warriors straightened up and nodded. As our convoy crossed into the territory, the imposing gates of Loren’s pack loomed ahead.Standing at the entrance, dressed in an elegant burgundy suit, was Loren himself. His face was plastered with a welcoming smile, but I wasn’t fooled. I noticed the subtle clench of his jaw, the way his teeth ground together when he thought no one was watching. He still hadn’t forgiven me for confiscating the $20 million he’d handed to Hilary. Beneath his polished façade, I could feel the simmering hatred.“Jack, it’s been a while,” Loren said smoothly as I stepped out of the car.“Thank you for hosting us. It’s an honor to attend this year’s Alpha meeting,” I replied with equal politeness, masking my suspicion behind a compo

    The day had been like any other at the hospital. With Jack away for the Alpha meeting, I took the opportunity to meet Andrea after work—a routine I had grown fond of in his absence.Andrea had been struggling with her math assignments lately. The increasing difficulty was starting to frustrate her, so I made it a point to help her whenever I could. That evening, I headed straight to Lydia’s house to check on her and help Andrea finish her homework.As I approached the house, I noticed an unusual commotion in the streets. Werewolves were rushing out of the pack, some shouting frantically. Even the guards had abandoned their posts, their voices echoing with panic.“What’s going on?” I called out, grabbing the arm of a woman running past me.She barely glanced at me, her face pale with fear. “Something serious is happening near the forest!” she exclaimed, jerking free from my grip and disappearing into the chaos.Confused and uneasy, I quickened my pace toward Lydia’s house. Surely, she

    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 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!

    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

    Rose's point of view:I was in a long dream, in which there was an endless night filled with snow.Suddenly, I opened my eyes and the dream ended. My mind was in a daze. The light from the streetlights outside penetrated through the gaps of the curtains.Why was it so late? Wasn't I having a coffee with Lucy earlier? I jumped out of bed and walked to the window. Outside, the snow was slowly melting.A strange nausea seized me. When I saw the snow in front of me, the first thing that came to my mind was Aaron. For some reason, I felt a strong desire to share this point of view with him.When we were in the Maroon Hill Pack, we used to go skiing together. He was skilful and could pass without too much trouble between the snow and the woods.I went back to my bed and lay down there, closing my eyes. My mind was filled with thoughts about Aaron: his charming eyes, his well-defined figure and his wonderfully soft voice.The horrible and repulsive things he had done before seemed to be a va

    Jack’s Point of View“What else did you do for Aaron? Did you have a hand in Rose’s kidnapping?”I leaned back in my chair, crossing my legs, my gaze fixed on Lucy as I continued my questioning.I had always suspected her involvement, but without concrete evidence, I couldn’t act on mere intuition. Now, the truth was unraveling before me.Lucy knelt on the floor, her head bowed. The once-perfect makeup on her face was now smeared with tears, like a shattered mask revealing the ugliness hidden beneath.“I did help Aaron, but I thought he just wanted to reconcile with Rose,” she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. “He used to love her so much… I never imagined he would actually hurt her. Rose and I are friends. I would never intentionally harm her.”She raised her head slightly, meeting my eyes with a shameless sort of boldness, as if she truly believed she had done nothing wrong.“Aaron kidnapped Rose and threatened to kill her if the Blue Lagoon Pack didn’t surrender,” I state

    Jack’s Point of View“Alright, give me a second.” I wiped the corner of my mouth with a napkin, my mind swirling with suspicion. Standing up from my seat, I made my way toward Lucy, pretending to grab a fork.I had no intention of leaving. I just wanted to see what she was up to tonight.Reaching the door, I hesitated briefly before turning back. As expected, something was off. Inside the private dining room, Lucy was hurriedly pulling a small bottle of red liquid from her bag. Bent over my glass, she quickly poured its contents into my wine.“What did you just put in my drink?” My voice was sharp as I leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, staring her down.Lucy’s head snapped up, her face draining of color. Panic flickered in her eyes as she froze, her hand still gripping the bottle, trembling violently.“N-Nothing… I just—” She stammered, but it was clear she had no reasonable excuse.Without hesitation, I strode forward and snatched the bottle from her hand.“What the hell is

    Jack’s point of view:While I was busy taking care of the affairs of the Blue Lagoon pack, I suddenly received a call from Olivia. I asked her to keep an eye on Aaron and Lucy for me. It seemed that something had happened.I took the phone and went to the nearest window. Outside, there was pure white snow, which blurred the landscape in the distance."Jack, I sent someone to follow Aaron in secret earlier this afternoon. We found out that he had gone to a restaurant near Lucy’s University to meet her. The two seemed to be talking about something.""Has your subordinate heard what they said?” I didn't expect Aaron to act so quickly.“Unfortunately not. My subordinate did not dare to approach them, let Aaron know it. So he stood outside and listened to their conversation as best he could," Olivia explained in a whisper."I see. Thank you Olivia. Please continue to monitor them for me."After that, I hung up. I hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to call Rose to inform her. Lu

  • ALPHA’s HEART MY PRISON   Chapter 241

    Lucy’s point of view:I left the restaurant, I went back to my university with the aphrodisiac that Aaron had given me safely in my pocket. Despite my nervousness and hesitations, I still gave in and called Rose."What is it? Lucy?" Rose’s voice was sleepy. It seemed that she and Jack had had sex until very late, so she was still in bed."You're not up yet? There is a new cafe in front of our university. Would you like to go with me? Are you free?" I did my best to sound as natural as possible.However, I was able to catch Rose’s hesitation on the phone."I'm OK." Fortunately, she eventually accepted."So I'll wait for you, okay? Come quickly!" I hung up. The nervousness in me grew even more.After that, I went to the cafe outside the university in advance. I ordered Rose's favourite coffee, then added the aphrodisiac mixed with Aaron’s blood in a hurry.The heat of the steaming coffee rose in the air before slowly disappearing. I could see snow outside through the window while waitin
