Bernardo “Now you have to keep that promise.” My wolf reminded me. Fuck, the jealousy came again in full force, I tried to shake it off. Harlyn was talking to Hillan now. Scolding him and crying. “I am sorry, baby, I didn’t mean to scare you.” I wanted to punch him for calling my mate baby in front of me but I knew Harlyn would probably kill me if I touched him. Right now, she was like a mother goose protecting her own. Even though she was scolding him, I knew damn well that she would take out any threat that comes near him. “You nearly died on me, stop fucking laughing.” She let out and Hillan stopped laughing immediately. Good to know that I wasn’t the only one scared of her scolding. Only Harlyn could make an alpha shut the fuck up and listen. “I am sorry, I shouldn’t have gotten myself hurt.” “Damn well, you shouldn’t have. I ran so much, my feet hurt right now. I should hit you but I don’t want to hurt you.” She said and turned angry eyes at me. “Why did you let hi
Bernardo “You knew?” I asked her. Why was I surprised? The woman can see visions of what happened to those she healed. If not for her vision, a lot of things would have still been hiding until now. It was all because of her that the evil deeds going on in the pack got exposed. “Of course, I know. I saw everything that happened. I want them dead. They hurt him so badly. I was so sure that I would lose him.” I felt a stab of jealousy and shoved it aside, now is not the time to feel jealous. Hillan means a lot to her and he should mean a lot to me too. He put his life on the line. Only a true friend would do something like that. “I am glad you think so,” Fuck, she was in my head. Way to go, Bernardo. “I will make sure they pay for what they did to him.” I assured her. “I trust you and believe in you. Just don’t get hurt. It was bad when it was Hillan, it would be way worse if anything happened to you. For the sake of my poor heart, please be careful and stay safe. I don’t t
HarlynI lay on the bed after Bernardo left and closed my eyes. I still felt out of it but it wasn’t as bad as before. At least, I didn’t collapse this time, Hillan, that stubborn man. I know he didn’t listen to me. He is as stubborn as my Bernardo. They are both so stubborn.“I don’t know what to do with them.” I whispered and breathed out. Thank goodness nothing happened and he is okay. I saw what happened while I healed him and for the first time, I really wanted to hurt someone. They tried to escape, he chased after them and they played dirty. A shiver ran through me and I opened my eyes and sat up.“Nothing happened, he is okay.” I told myself. It would have been bad if anything had happened to him. I just want everything to be over so that I won’t have to worry about him or Bernardo getting hurt. Harry too and the other guys. I still felt weak so I laid down to regain my strength.The banging on my door woke me up. I jolted up and looked around wondering how long I have been
BernardoI made my way back to my bedroom after spending the past five hours doing things I really didn’t want to do. I passed judgment on the betas who dared to betray me and stayed enough for them to be transported to the prison where they will spend the next two decades until I decide to either free them or send them out of the Crimson Moon for good.“Time for my baby.” I could already feel my wolf dancing inside at the thought of spending time with our mate. I shouldn’t have left her earlier. Even Hillan scolded me for leaving her when she used up her strength to heal him but I assured him that she told me to.“Huh? Did she leave the door open?” I whispered when I realized the door wasn’t locked. Maybe I forgot to lock it when I left earlier. I entered and closed the door.“Baby? I am back.” I called out and waited but there was no sound or sign of anyone in the room. I made my way to the sleeping area expecting to see her on the bed but she wasn’t there. I saw her phone.“Is s
Bernardo “Where is Harlyn?” I let out. He looked at me in confusion. “I don’t know, I came out because I heard the commotion. What happened?” He looked genuinely confused and that meant he didn’t know where she was. I let him go and turned away, trying and failing to calm myself down. Harlyn is missing. Something happened to her. I shouldn’t have left her alone.“She is missing, I can’t find her anywhere.” I told Hillan. The set of guards I sent to the gates came back and I rushed to them. “What did they say?” I yelled at them. “She left the palace in one of the royal cars. They let her pass because it was her majesty.” “That’s it? So where is she now?” I yelled at him and pushed him. She left in a car? To where? Why would she leave her phone behind? “Ben calm down. We aren’t going to get anywhere with you shouting at everyone. Maybe she went to get something.” I turned to Hillan and had to resist the urge to rush at him and punch him hard in the face. Did he not know the
Bernardo“So, you are telling me that you have no idea where my mate could be? That you don’t have a hand in what happened to Harlyn? I swear to the moon goddess that you w---“ “For fuck sake, I don’t fucking know what you are talking about, why are you bitching about her when you failed to protect her? Isn’t it your job to keep her safe? Why would I take her when I can’t even use her right now?” He yelled at me. Right, he couldn’t have taken her. There was no way but those who worked for him might have done it to gain favors from him. That could be it. They might have taken her without telling him and they might plan to call him soon. “If you find out anything, call me.” I told him even though I knew damn well that he would never call me. His laugh after I spoke pissed me off so much but I held myself back.“Do you really think that I would do something like that? I might not know where she is right now but I am glad they got her away from you. You don’t deserve her. You don’t de
TheoI wanted to laugh in his face. If I knew where his mate was, I would have had a good time laughing at him right now. I could feel the tension and the fear in his voice. It’s the first time ever that I have sensed any kind of fear in the bastard and I honestly wanted to capitalize on it but I don’t know where she could be.I haven’t called anyone from the Crimson Moon or interacted with anyone at that. I have been locked up in my room, trying to come up with a plan. A way to win against the bastard.“If I find out that you had anything to do with this, I w—“ “Oh shut the fuck up. You can’t do anything. You can’t even find your mate. What can you fucking do?” I fired at him and laughed when he went silent. Ha, I should have thought of this. I should have fucking thought of taking her away from him. She was all I needed to get him to submit and I missed the opportunity.I didn’t know that he loved her so much. If I knew, I would have used her. That’s why I had people everywhere,
TheoI had the worst childhood and it’s all because of the loser who was my father. He used to punish me so fucking much for little things until I stood up for myself after I shifted for the first time and he never touched me again. Since then, I refused to take orders from him. I gave out orders and his job was to listen.“If you hear what I have done, you will thank me.” He said and that got my attention. Could it be? Really? Could it be him? It would be so much easier if it was him.“What did you do?” I asked him. I didn’t want to get my hopes up. For all I know, it could be the most basic thing ever. The loser never does anything right. “I got her.” My heart skipped a beat at his words. He got her. There was only one her that I am interested in right now. If he really has her then I might actually look at him with a little respect. “Who? Who is her?” I asked, I did my best to act as uninterested as possible. I know my father, if he senses my desperation, he would use it agai
