Hilary's POV:I could barely contain myself as I was so excited for Jack’s 23rd birthday. When our pack got invaded by the other pack before, they enslaved and tortured us. Fortunately, those days were behind us now and the suffering had finally come to an end. It was time to usher in a new era for our pack.This was Jack’s first birthday celebration after he became the Alpha of the Blue Lagoon Pack. I wouldn't miss this party for anything else in the world. After all, I was eager to let the others know what the future Luna of the Blue Lagoon Pack looked like.The guests arrived one after another and the hall echoed with the sound of their voices and hearty laughter. I was busy greeting as many guests as I could, because I wanted to learn to interact with the werewolves from the other packs in advance.After all, if I was to be the hostess in the future, I would be expected to entertain all kinds of guests for the Blue Lagoon Pack. I had to practice my social skills in advance."Hilary
Jack’sPOV:As the dinner party commenced, the Alphas exchanged pleasantries with the noble werewolves of the pack. I had little patience for these trivial gatherings—the constant chatter faded into white noise.“I never imagined Jack would overthrow that fiend,” someone murmured, referring to Baldwin. Most here despised him for his brutal invasion.“The Blue Lagoon Pack thrives under Alpha Jack’s leadership,” another added. “And with Hilary’s contributions, it’s likely she’ll become our Luna. She even saved his life once.”“Regardless, we owe Jack everything,” a voice chimed in. “Without him, that tyrant James would still be ruling.”They spoke of James with justified hatred—I shared it. Their reign had left scars on many, myself included.Just then, the slaves were brought out—former members of Baldwin’s pack. Some faces were seared into my memory. Even if they turned to ash, I would never forget them. They had been his guards. My tormentors.I could still recognize a few faces. I did
Rose's point of view.I did not expect that my worst apprehensions would come true so quickly. I was cooking when several male werewolves suddenly broke in to try to take me."Where are you taking me? "My voice trembled with fear as I looked at them with terror."Shut up, slave! We take you to a place where you deserve to be. You will probably become the slave of another clan," screamed one of them furiously, and their eyes showed the discontent they had towards me.I finally realised that I was going to be put up for sale so that the Alphas of the other clans could choose.I was forced to put on a type of revealing clothes that I had never worn before, let alone in public. I felt embarrassed and humiliated, but at that moment, I had no choice but to obey their orders.As soon as I entered the room, I saw Jack staring at me. Even if I hadn't seen him for a number of days, the look he put on me was somewhat strange. There was a mix of shock, confusion and astonishment in his eyes.I ha
Jack's point of view.After the birthday party, everyone came home. Since Uriel had discovered that Rose was my companion, he was constantly agitated."Jack, I would never have imagined that our enemy's daughter could be your companion. But it doesn't matter. You can reject Rose when she came of age and thus continue to mistreat her. You also have the possibility to kill her directly without rejecting her. ”Uriel was right. Rose was not yet twenty three years old. She didn't know I was her companion. If I wanted to martyr her, it was by far the best thing to do. Being mistreated by her partner would be the most unbearable experience she has ever lived. However, I didn't know why I was in doubt."Jack, what do you think of my proposal?" asked Uriel, always trying to persuade me."I don't think it's great. I want to torture Rose gradually. Otherwise, how could I evacuate all my grudges?” I replied."What are you talking about? Why don't you hurry to seize such a great opportunity? You
Rose’s point of view.I took a hundred steps on the road and my heart was beating so hard that I had a hard time standing. A gentle breeze kissed my face and I ended up calming down by caressing my burning cheeks with cold hands. I couldn't believe what happened a few moments ago, Jack asked me to kiss him and I did, because I was desperate to see Andrea.Oh My God! I kissed Jack! I had to take deep breaths to calm down. I didn't think I would feel this way because of him.He was a demon, and for him, I was nothing more than a toy for his amusement and thirst for revenge. I knew he was lying to me, but I couldn't do anything other than resign myself to my fate."Rose!" I rubbed my eyes and wiped the tears on my face when I heard someone calling me from behind. When I turned around, I was surprised to see that it was Lydia."What can I do for you, Lydia?” Although I speak calmly, I could hardly stop my hands from shaking. I realised that Lydia only looked for me when she had a message
Hilary's point of view.Rose, this bitch! How dare she!All these male werewolves in the banquet room kept fainting in front of her as if they had forgotten that she was our enemy's daughter.What was good about this bitch? She managed to win their hearts only because of her beauty, how ridiculous!Fortunately, Jack was not like these lustful and bad-tasteful werewolves. The Jack I knew was a rational person, who would not have fallen in love with a cheeky seductress like Rose.Once dinner was over, I went out to look for him, very quickly, I found him standing behind a pillar in the corridor. Delighted, I went to him, but while I approached him, I noticed that he was not alone.When he turned to the side, I couldn't believe it when I saw who it was, this bitch of Rose! Why was she there with him?"Come here and kiss me." My whole world stopped when I heard what Jack had told her. Why did he want her to kiss him? Was he trying to punish her? I started to get dizzy and I didn't underst
Rose’s point of view:I couldn't control my joy when I saw Andrea, I was so relieved to see that she was safe and sound in this house. After all, I couldn't sleep during the last few days thinking that she was suffering elsewhere. Lydia was a good-hearted woman, and I was confident and less worried knowing that she was staying with Grace.The next morning, I went to the construction site on time and continued to transport cement with the other werewolves. Jack had just established a new pack, which is why we were busy building a fortress. Werewolves and slaves worked there every day.The werewolves I worked with always looked at me with resentment.“Rose, don't be sare! Go bring cement here," Told Logan, the site manager, slamming his whip violently.Since he hadn't managed to rape me last time, he had become even meaner to me, because he couldn't help but feel humiliated looking at me. But, I did nothing but stay quiet and put up with them, because I knew that things could have been w
Jack’s point of view:It was dinner time, but Rose wasn't there. Believing that she had escaped once again, I tried to locate her, I found that she was locked in the dark room that was used to torture slaves. My heart tightened with anxiety to discover it.Once I arrived in front of the dark room, I immediately saw Rose, who was on her back. Her skin was covered with wounds, blood flowed down her back. Rose bit her lower lip strongly, her eyes shone with stubbornness and inflexibility. She had not forgotten that she was born a princess, even if enslaved, she always refused to ask for mercy.I was heartbroken to see her like this, So I rushed to them to end this torture. "What's going on here? ", I roared. "What are you doing here, Alpha?Did you pick me up? Would you like to have dinner with me? ", Hilary Asked.Then she threw the whip at the werewolf who was next to her, and warmly hugged me.The werewolf grabbed the whip and wanted to continue whipping Rose. Realising it, I pushed Hi
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
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
Aaron’s Point of ViewLeaving Bennet’s house, I tightly gripped the two vials of magical potions in my pocket. With these in my possession, my plan was finally in motion.As soon as I returned to the Wouri River Pack, I sent a message to Lucy, instructing her to meet me in secret.We arranged to meet at a discreet restaurant near her university. When she arrived, she was heavily disguised—a mask and a thick scarf concealed most of her face, ensuring she wouldn’t be recognized. As she pulled the mask down, I immediately noticed her swollen, red-rimmed eyes. She looked completely drained, her face blank and lifeless.It was clear she had spent the night crying.“You look terrible,” I remarked casually, pouring myself a glass of wine.“It’s nothing. I just didn’t sleep well,” she muttered, avoiding my gaze.I didn’t bother to press her further. Instead, I reached into my coat pocket, pulled out the vial of aphrodisiac, and dangled it in front of her before setting it on the table.“Find
Aaron’s Point of ViewThe truce had bought me time, but I had been waiting for the right moment to strike. Bennet had assured me he needed only a month to recover. That month had passed, and I expected him to be ready.I made my way to his house, but something was different this time—the door was open. I stepped inside, only to find him in a wretched state. He sat on the bed, frail and hollow-cheeked, looking as if he had been battling a severe illness.“How are you feeling?” I asked, my brows knitting together.Bennet barely lifted his head. He looked as though he was on his deathbed. This wasn’t what I needed. I needed strength, a capable ally—not someone who could barely hold himself together.“My old injury has worsened. I’m not in fighting condition,” he admitted, his voice weak and hoarse. His skeletal frame only emphasized his decline.I stepped further into the room, but the moment I did, a sharp, pungent smell hit my nose. The air reeked of bitter herbs and medicinal brews. I
Lucy’s point of view:The day before Jack’s birthday, Rose called him and invited him, as well as some of his friends from the Blue Lagoon Pack, to the hotel to celebrate his birthday.Rose was dressed in a sapphire blue silk dress and stood arm in arm with Jack. Her long straight hair was styled in waves and she wore light makeup today. Rose usually didn't like to be pumped, but right now, she was beautiful standing in the room. Jack stood next to her and talked to the other werewolves. He wore a pointed suit and caressed his well-defined jaw. He always looked calm, stable and distant. I knew that he only revealed his tender side to Rose.My fingers tightened Involuntarily around the glass of wine I was holding. Jack and Rose stood there, looking like the perfect couple, making me feel nervous.I was particularly careful by dressing for the birthday party. Today, I wore the most expensive and attractive dress I had, only wanting Jack’s attention.I quietly followed Jack and Rose.I wa
