SCARLETT :

"Remember what happened is in the past. It is no longer real. You should not let it determine your future or be a part of you. You are your own person, Scarlett. Do not let the one who harmed you take control over your being," she questioned. "How frequent are your nightmares, and are there any new symptoms you go through?"

"The nightmares come suddenly. Before, I could not close my eyes without seeing my perpetrator's face, but now I can. Once anything triggers the memory within me and I close my eyes at night, all I can see..."

"Look at me," Lucinda said. "Where are you?"

"Your office," she nodded. "Exactly, you must not allow your mind to wander back to that dark room. You are no longer there; you are here."

"He hasn't been caught," my voice faded. "What if he returns?"

"I can only tell you that if you allow him to have power over you in your absence, he would want to take advantage of that in the future."

"I'm taking combat training at the pack house," I informed her.

    JAX:I begrudgingly made up my mind to give Scarlett the space she needed, even if it cost me my peace of mind. What if she falls for Cage? That should be the last thing on my mind, especially when I had mountains of papers to sign."It's been a while since you had to pull an all-nighter for work," my best friend commented, sitting beside my personal assistant Hensley, who was helping me review documents.That should be Zharn's cue, but he said he had been working all day. I wasn't going to hold it against him. He has been covering for me lately, especially with me doing my research on what to do with my relationship."Yeah, it's draining," I groaned.As the Alpha with special powers greater than the rest of the members of my pack, I was not bound to get physically drained quickly. That did not cover the rest of my being because mentally I was spent."What is this?" I raised a document, almost squeezing it into a molded paper. "Fifty million tan?" Tan was the name of our currency. "Fo

    JAX:My plan to examine the pros and cons of my future actions remained. Will marrying Scarlett ruin the pack? Will it cause internal conflict, creating an opening for our multiple enemies to invade? All those things plagued my mind, which is why I picked out three wise and calm elders to advise me on the matter.Elder Lorn, Elder Caelum, and Elder Vince.My father trusted them to handle matters when things got too tough for him and his Beta to handle. My chamber had a private soundproof meeting room efficient for days like this.I mentally had not recovered from my all-nighter and cut down extravagant budgets. I still had to have a word with my mother about her annual budget. I was yet to build up the pack's revenue income to surpass where my grandfather raised it to.The room was designed to be a mini conference section, with wooden chairs lined up in a curve taking three steps and my seat right in front, with that of the Luna and Beta's beside mine. The elders sat right in the fron

    JAX:"Tomorrow, you have a meeting with all the elders and our army to plan strategies for surprise attacks," Hensley mentioned as he, along with my men, escorted me back to my pack. We had no idea what our enemies were planning, so it was better to be prepared. "Remember, the annual alliance meeting is coming up in a week. Your presentation for a request to lend their armed forces is yet to be made."I groaned. "Let Zharn do it.""I'll send a letter to him," Hensley responded. "You also have four hundred documents and proposals to review.""Send those to Zharn as well.""I'm afraid these need your personal attention." Kill me already."Doesn't everything?" I grunted. "Anything else?" I asked as I stepped into my car."Can I get a day off next Monday?" Hensley asked curtly."What for?""My wedding anniversary. I have to plan a-""Do whatever you want, Hensley." I was struggling to get one woman to love me back, and he was talking about his wedding anniversary. I slammed the door shut

    JAX:I freshened up and then laid back on my bed, restless. I hadn't been to the gym in a while, so I thought that would help me focus on something else. I got into workout gear and left my room when a servant came up to me."Alpha, Jax, the grand Luna requests your presence in the dining hall.""Tell her I'll be there shortly," I dismissed him.My dear mother, Stella, called for me whenever it was convenient for her. In the context of our mother-son relationship, her feelings were the only ones that mattered.Mine? I wasn't supposed to have any. I am the Alpha, after all.I put aside my thoughts and my fists, eager to make contact with the punching bag. If Zharn were here, I'd ask him to spar or wrestle with me. That could wait until after I heard what my mother had to say to me.The dining hall was different from the banquet hall we used to host guests, yet it was large enough to host a grand event. The stand stood feet taller than some buildings. My grandfather called it a sacred r

    JAX:My stomach churned from sitting next to my mother as if we had an actual relationship. Perhaps it wouldn't hurt to try if she was truly willing because it honestly felt like my world was crumbling, especially since it felt like I had lost Scarlett, not completely, I hoped."Just wait till you see what I made," my mother beamed, standing up to unveil the dishes with the help of a few workers.As the lids of the silver serving trays were lifted one by one, my eyes widened with uncharacteristic shock. My mother, ever poised and elusive in the kitchen, had prepared the entire feast herself—a revelation that left me momentarily speechless. Had someone told me minutes ago that my royally made mother could make something as simple as toast and tea, I might've cracked up so hard for once in a long time.The first dish revealed was venison carpaccio, its delicate slices glistening with truffle oil and adorned with shavings of Parmesan, a clear nod to their primal instincts. Next came a sa

    JAX:"Would I initiate it if I did not think it was a good idea?" I threw a question back at her."Of course," she sat down. "How did the council take it?""How did you hear of it?" I queried."The Alpha of the Crimson Moon might have tipped me while we conversed. You are well aware that we're old friends, aren't we?" She replied.Old friends.I did not think they still spoke.The current Alpha of the Crimson Moon pack, also our ally, was an acquaintance of my father before his passing. He ruled in a way no one could question, even though at first he was tagged as a bastard child from the Alpha before him. To his people, he was a merciless tyrant, but to those he favored, they knew deep down he was soft at heart. He had taken a liking to me when I whacked his only child and son, Reynold, who hit me in the face years ago.Due to one of his reputations being tagged as a fool for love, I consulted him more like ranted. Someone must have tipped my mother about my visit to the Crimson Moon

    STELLA DE VAUNT :My knuckles turned white as I clenched my fists, itching to ram them into my son's face. What did he know? How much experience did he have?"How dare you?" My body shook with rage. I snapped. "Leave! I have no use for a weak son like you. Get out!" My chest heaved as if I had just run a marathon.Jax mocked me. "As always, my words got to you because they are true." And just like that, he walked out.I collapsed into the chair next to me, my eyes brimming with tears. That boy had no idea how much of me I had sacrificed over the years, the parts of me that I had buried away, the dreams I could never recover, the love that was stolen from me.When responsibilities are born with a person from birth, their dreams are decided, their pursuits are destined, their fate is created. No matter how hard you try, you cannot deviate from the path set for you.I was born into one of the five most influential families of the pack as the first daughter, where the mate of the Alpha is

    SCARLETT :I have not seen the Alpha since the day I brutally pushed him away. Cage picked Sophie and me up from home every morning. My parents, especially my papa, weren't happy about it, but since my mother came to like Cage later, my father pretended to follow suit.Summer was slowly fading away, and soon it would be four months since I first came into contact with the Alpha. Time went by so fast that I couldn't believe it myself. Winter was fast approaching, and Cage followed my sister and me home to convince at least one of our parents, especially our mother, to permit us to attend a winter party that his mother was hosting.Top noble families hosted parties during the winter or summer as a competition to see who would host the best event of the season. It was always grand, and they were usually the talk of the town. People in my class attended as workers or through news details also known as newspapers or TV screens."What theme is your mother planning for this year?" Sophie ask

    SCARLETT :"This is bad, really fucking bad," Sophie exclaimed as she got out of the car."Everyone grab a weapon," Cage instructed. He handed me a sword, and Zharn took a gun and a sword."Is everything loaded?" The Beta asked."Fully," Cage confirmed."I want a gun," Sophie requested."Can you use one?" Cage inquired.My sister turned to the left and fired the gun."What?" She rolled her eyes at our bewildered faces. "I watch a lot of war movies.""You learned to shoot from war movies?" Zharn raised a brow."My aim might be shit, but I can pull a trigger," she said, tucking the shotgun into her jeans."Emma, have this dagger," Cage offered it to her."Be careful, it looks sharp," I cautioned."Your place looks really bad," Zharn remarked upon looking at it."Doesn't everywhere look ruined today?"The windows of our home had multiple holes in them."Be safe, Scarlett," the Alpha's voice reappeared in my head.I had to choose a moment to live in, between the Alpha saying my name where

    SCARLETT :It all happened in a flash. Two of the rogues were soon bound in ropes with glass shards all over them.Cage was bleeding badly, and the little girl wouldn't stop crying."Are you okay?" Of course, he wasn't okay. He was bleeding badly, but the situation had me feeling almost numb. I didn't know what else to say.Sophie grabbed her bag and took her scarf, tore it, and wrapped it around his bleeding palms."What's going to happen to these two?" Soph asked Cage."They'll be held captive for questioning," Cage replied, panting heavily. "This is unusual; rogues have never neared this pack. We have the strongest men positioned at our borders; they never leave. Our security is the best. Someone planned this obviously; it could be someone within the pack. We'll need them to answer to us, I bet everyone has a question or two for them."Hot and cold air brushed my skin as I got goosebumps due to anxiety."You'll never get anything out of us no matter how hard you try," one of the ro

    JAX:"Don't go anywhere," I told my wolf, Luca. "I'll be needing you throughout today.""I practically live in you. Just summon me," it told me before disappearing.I wore a full-proof body suit. All my men had them. It didn't keep the head safe, but the rest of the body would be. My men had spread out throughout the pack. My guards accompanied me as we stepped out of my chamber. Dead bodies were spread out on the floor."Your people are out there dying, and you chose to stay in your chamber and take your time like a pretty little princess." Six rogues appeared before me, and before I replied, my men were shot in the head from behind."Nice work," I commended. "Now let me show you how to shoot." My grandfather did not give me affection; he signified approval by giving me permission to learn his secret moves.One deep breath."Luca, I need you.""I'm here, Jax," he responded.Soon, I was behind the five of them, firing silver bullets with both my hands."Fascinating," one of the rogues

    ZHARN MEYERS:"Over there," Amy pointed."Why? You're not gonna come any further?""No, we have to stay here just in case you drown or something. That way, we can get help on time," Amy told me. "Besides, look at Tina, she's shaking. That area is too spooky for her."I looked at Tina, who was not hiding very well behind Amy.I groaned. "Hey, Tina, I can get you a new-"She sobbed. "My dolly. Waaaaaaaaa."I grimaced."I'll get it.""Thank you," she said in the most childish voice ever. How can a six-year-old manipulate her way into getting a doll back?I strode to the lake where the full moon reflected directly on the blue water."We weren't just compatible. Zharn, I want you to stop drowning yourself. Move on, find some peace. Find a beautiful woman you love. Get married too," Cleo's voice rang in my head."You'll always have a place in my life, as a friend."Her wedding ring and pregnant belly flashed before my eyes.Tears poured down."Fuck, I'm a grown man. I can't cry," I told mys

    ZHARN MEYERS:I had spoken on the spur of the moment that day, and I did not realize how it would make her feel that way."Why didn't you say anything?" I queried."I wanted to, but then you became aBeta and got too busy. I met Paul around that time," she told me. Paul, the man she cheated on me with. Twice. "I don't know how to explain it, but it was different with him, too different, and I realized that I could not love you in the way that you loved me. Yet, it was hard to let you go. My family loved you, my friends did too. Your family ranks second among the nobles. My parents would have killed me if I let you.""Then your only option was to string me along forever?" I ran my hands through my hair."Cleo, I was scared you'd hate me.""Cleo, I loved you too much to ever hate you. You could've told me everything, and I would've let you go, even if it killed me," I chuckled bitterly. "I'm not that selfish. I'd never keep someone who cannot love me the same way that I do them."She lo

    ZHARN MEYERS:I kept my distance from Jax. He'd give me sad eyes all evening, reminding me of how shitty my life really was.I stood by the pillar, observing the evening when a woman whooshed past me.I caught a whiff of strawberries and bubblegum, and my nose followed the scent. A woman in a green dress hugged her body so tight that I noticed other men gawking at her. Her wavy dirty blonde hair did not do much to cover her exposed back.A good distraction for the night. All I have to do is smile and use my boyish charms. I watched her until she went to the side where the lowborns stood and turned."Holy shit, she's gorgeous," my wolf Lan read my mind.Her golden amber eyes shone as bright as stars even without trying. Her rosy-colored cheeks and lips stood out against her fair skin.It was settled. I was getting her contact info.I was about to cross the bridge between the nobles and lowborns when a gentle tug pulled me back. I should have looked around; the only thing standing betwe

    ZHARN MEYERS:I endured the first two hours of the event, engaging in political discussions and business talk with older men. This was my father's domain, not mine, but that night I was not just Beta Zharn. I was also the young Master of the Meyer household, there to uphold the family's honor."Hey, Zharn!" Anna exclaimed. "Amy snuck a pastry.""They're from home," Amy defended."Excuse me." I gave a curt smile to the grey-haired man with a pot belly before storming over to my sisters."What did our mother say about tonight?" I seethed, hoping I wouldn't have to lock my sisters in a cage that night."To not steal pastries?" Anna shrugged."No, you dimwit," Amy rolled her eyes. "She said to behave." Amy said proudly, but I was about to knock that pride off her face with a good smack to her forehead."Why aren't you behaving?" I whispered angrily. "Do you realize you're not even supposed to be here? You have to be of age.""Liar," that was the second time I had been called a liar that n

    ZHARN MEYERS:FIVE MONTHS AGO…"Guys, are you ready?!" My mother yelled from downstairs. "Zharn, you're the Beta. What are you still doing up there?"I appeared from behind her. "I've been outside for a while now, thanks for thinking the best of me," I said, my tone caustic.My mother flinched, holding her heart. "Zharn Jake Meyers, don't do that again.""Yes, mother," I replied blandly."Now, where are your sisters?" My mother turned to a passing servant. "Get the girls, speedily!""No need, Mama." My four little sisters ran down the stairs, all looking chaotic.My parents had six children: my older sister, me, and four other annoying girls."What took you all so long?" My mother sighed."It was Anna and Amy," Joy, the one after me, was quick to point out the culprit."Was not!" Anna and Amy said simultaneously."Was too!" Joy shot back."Mama," the youngest, Tina, ran to embrace our mother.Our mother's blond hair was styled up elegantly, with her blue eyes matching the color of the

    HARRISON CAGE:It was unplanned. At first, the only thing on my mind was to save her from the same fate my mother suffered, or that was what I told myself intentionally.I had no place in her life to interfere, perhaps I was selfish, granted that my father was too. I had someone to blame my inadequacies on. I looked for her every day, and learned more about her through her coworker Reyes. I owe him thousands of favors. I was no better than a creepy stalker who used curiosity as a cover-up.I tried my hardest not to show it, but the moment she gave me a place in her life was the happiest I had ever been. I was okay with no one checking on me, I was fine third-wheeling to clubs with Jax and Zharn just to go home alone while they did their thing with women of the night.That was the past, not anymore. Not only was I cursed yet blessed with falling for a woman whose mate is my old friend, but I got a badass, foul-mouthed, definitely not shy friend Sophie. Scarlett was bold when she wanted
