My shriek woke him up, and he instantly let go of my hand. “What the hell are you doing?” he snapped at me instead of apologizing, which made me extremely angry. “Waking you up from your nightmare, you fucker!” I shouted back at him. “I should not have thought about helping you in the first place,” I mumbled, looking around the house. “Now give me something. My hand is bleeding,” I snapped at him. Though I was not expecting him to do so, he instantly moved and took a cloth from the nearby drawer and gave it to me. “Do you want medicine?” he asked me hesitantly, and I glared at him. “I will be back in a minute,” he mumbled, quickly running upstairs. I sat on the couch and removed the bandage Luna Queen had dressed my previous wound with. I know I am clumsy, and it is normal for me to have at least a bruise or cut or a small wound every time, but when in this hell, I started getting new deep wounds almost every day. He came towards me and passed me the first aid kit, which I gladly ac
"What did you do?" I stood up from the chair. "She is alive," he stated, which calmed me a little, but I also know that this doesn’t mean she is safe. I am also alive, but only I know how much he made me suffer in those dungeons. Did he take Mom there, too? "What did you do to her?" I asked him again while trying my best not to lose my cool. "Nothing, just had a little chat." Though he said this, I know for sure that the matter is not that easy. I looked around and saw his mobile phone lying on the table. I took it and dialed the nurse's number, and surprisingly he didn't stop me. She answered the call after four rings. "Hello, is my mom alright?" I asked her without wasting even a single second. "Oh, Arya, is it you?" she asked me, and I couldn't help but be impatient. "Yes, it’s me. How’s my mom?" I asked her, and when she didn’t reply instantly, I knew that there was indeed something that he did. "Well, she is fine, but I will suggest that you ask your acquaintances not to co
"Who the hell are you?" Diego asked with authority while coming in front of me and blocking me completely. "Why the hell does she have the same face as mine?" the wolf asked. I didn't know who he was, but that was the same question I wanted to ask him. "You should answer that, don't you think?" I got up and stood side by side with Diego. Yes, I wanted to ask him questions, but I knew that I actually needed Diego's protection right now. So, I didn't go any further towards that unknown wolf with the same face as mine. "What the hell are you planning, Diego? Is it your doing?" I asked him suspiciously. "And exactly how do you think I will be able to do this?" he asked me, and I scrunched my eyebrows. "Who is he then?" I asked him again. "He is the to-be-alpha of the Ironclad pack. But what are you doing here?" he asked the wolf, and I couldn't help but still feel eerily disturbed because of my male look-alike. "Your warriors were alarmed by a captive that ran away. Dad sent me to he
I wanted to kill all the men present there right now, but I also knew that my mom's safety was foremost for me. "Why was she in the hospital?" To my surprise, this is Noah's question, and the way our so-called father looked at him, I know that Noah's question surprised him too. "Counting her last breaths, but it seems like she decided to end your breaths before taking her last ones," I said while pointing towards the middle-aged man and then looked at Diego. "If something happens to her, kill me, or I will not think even twice before killing you," I warned him and walked towards the door, but Diego took hold of my hand. "Where do you think you are going? Do you even know where your mom went?" he asked me, but I didn't say anything. "If you go between hunters, they will not even give you time to explain yourself. They will kill you on the spot." With a jerk from his grip, I pulled my hand and glared hard at him. "Good, it will make your work easy." He again took hold of my hand. "Yo
With every step he took towards me, I tightened my grip on the knife and fixed my eyes on the spot where his heart should be. But Diego thought it best to spoil my plan by coming in between us, grabbing the alpha by his throat, and throwing him towards the couch. The couch broke in the middle, and the alpha changed into his wolf form, losing control. That was a double loss; not only did I lose the chance to hurt or kill him, but I also lost a good couch to sleep on. "Take another step towards her, and I will make sure you regret every breath you take," Diego's authoritative voice made my knees buckle, and I sat on the stairs I was standing on. The other males were also on their knees. Though Xavier's wolf tried its best to stand up, he could not. "Arya, go to your room right now," Diego said again in the same voice. I tried to get up, but my legs didn't seem to work. "I said, go to your room," he shouted, and I felt helpless. "I am trying, but I can't feel my legs," I said in despera
Arya fell to the ground, and the injection also fell from her hand while the wolf hovered above her. The she-wolf didn't stop and was about to bite her throat when I intervened and pulled the she-wolf by the back of her neck, tossing her to a nearby tree."This bitch," Arya got up from the ground and was about to run towards the she-wolf when I held her by her waist and pulled her towards me."We are not here to kill anyone, Arya," I snapped her out of her violent thoughts. "This way, your mother will never be able to meet Noah." She instantly calmed down upon hearing this but was still breathing heavily. I then looked at the she-wolf I had tossed like a puppet a few seconds ago. She was still enraged but under my command now. I could see that she was still trying her best to fight my command."Give your human back the control and get changed," I turned towards Noah, who was also standing there and looking at the she-wolf in concern. "You too, Noah," I told both wolves and when they we
"Arya, stop!" I shouted behind her, but she sped off in another direction. "When will she start listening to me?" I mumbled in irritation. Noah was still sitting with Nora's body while Amelia looked visibly angry, and Xavier appeared relieved."So, are you taking the body with you to your pack, or do we have to dispose of it?" Xavier asked, and I fought the intense urge to snap at him and put him in his place."At least respect the dead, Dad," Noah's voice remained steady."This is not the time to be emotional, Noah. Do you even understand what will happen if people find out about her? And her face! Nora and you have almost the same face, and don't forget that disrespectful twin of yours. Whoever sees you three together will easily realize that you are related," Xavier said in desperation."She is not the one with the same face as mine. Arya and I are the ones who have her face. She gave birth to us," Noah corrected in his still calm voice."We are not revealing this to anyone. That's
"Don't try to act smart. You already know what I am asking," he said, and his eyes showed a different type of sinister gleam. "What do you want to hear, Alpha?" I asked him, trying to calm my beast, which was raging angrily. "The truth," he stated, and I couldn't help but chuckle. He wasn't expecting this kind of reaction from me, so the creases of confusion on his forehead were not unexpected. "Truth," I said and chuckled again. "Don't you know, Alpha, this word sounds like a joke coming from your mouth?" he growled, and I continued. "I would have stayed, laughed, and clapped at your joke, but I have to go and find a certain girl," I said to him, removing his hand from mine. "I hope you find her soon," he said from behind, while I kept walking. "Sooner than someone else," the last part he added stopped me dead in my tracks. My beast's anger skyrocketed, and I turned towards him. "There is one thing you should know about me, Alpha. When something or someone is under my guard, no o
