By now, two days had passed since she had last seen Kieran. The Alpha decided to disappear from her world and keep her locked in this room. Mad, she blocked him on the phone along with his Beta who chose to be on his side.Staring down from the balcony at midnight, Serenity knew that it was her only route of escape now. She hated waiting for the unknown the most. Although fourth floor is quite high, she needed to put trust in her werewolf genes. That might prevent her from her death.Tying two bed sheets together tightly, Serenity hung it from the balcony. Observing the surroundings these days, she learned when the shifts changed and the security was the weakest. Knowing that she had less than two minutes on her hand, Serenity made sure that the knot was tight enough. Then, mustering up enough courage, she grabbed on to the clothing and had her legs on the other side of the balcony.Her phobia of height started to act up, and her hand trembled. Reminding herself not to look down, Sere
When Kieran found out that Serenity had escaped from the room, a storm of agitation and trepidation churned within him. His heart pounded in his chest as he hurriedly ordered the entire pack to search for any signs of her. Gathering all those who were out on patrol, he questioned them urgently, his voice edged with desperation. But every single one of them shook their heads, their faces blank with ignorance. The negative responses only deepened the dark cloud over Kieran’s mood.There was no doubt that Serenity was merely a human no matter how smart she was, and these were the trained warrior wolves of his pack. He was sure that they helped her in escaping the pack.“This is bad, Alpha,” spoke the Beta. Panic could be seen on his expression. “Serenity’s previous pack had been attacked today.”Kieran's mind raced, connecting the dots. Her disappearance and the attack on her former pack couldn’t be a coincidence. Fury and frustration boiled within him as his golde
The aching body begged her to take rest. She breathed white smoke out of her nose due to cold. She could feel the frostbites forming on her fingertips as she rubbed both of her hands together in an attempt to ignite heat. Her cheeks were flushed red. Although the dense snow was making it difficult for her to breathe, at least it covered her steps and helped her hide.As she entered more into the desolate wilderness, Serenity could feel her breathe weakening. If she was not killed by those werewolves, it would be this deathly temperature that will take away her life. Serenity found a dark corner to hide at for the time being. Bending down, Serenity went inside the dark space.She hugged herself in an attempt to store the heat. Leaning her head against the snowy wall, she knew that she could not let her eyes close. They will find her in a matter of seconds. Serenity reached into her pocket and searched for all the weapons she brought along. She had no clue on how many we
Serenity rolled her eyes.“Don’t be ridiculous. I am not that interested in the Alpha. I was just playing with him,” Serenity vocalized against her will. Thinking about how coldly the Alpha acted with her caused her to feel a piercing ache in her chest.“It is fine if you think that way, Kid. You should not have gotten involved with the pack in the first place. It is my selfishness that brought you here and put you in danger repeatedly,” expressed Richard.“Why do you say that? I came here on my accord,” Serenity stated.Richard flicked on her forehead. “You give yourself too much credit. Do you think that it would be possible for you to step foot in this pack if it was not for me intervening?”A scoff escaped from her mouth. “After all that effort, you still hid your identity from me. Was it fun?”“I was merely testing you to see how smart you are. I was waiting for you to figure out on your own, but who would have thought that you would be so disappointing?” Richard expressed.“You
From what she had learned, Serenity knew that she had been out for almost a week. During that entire time, the Alpha turned the entire pack upside down. He was determined to root out all the potential traitors and punish them. While she learned nothing substantial from the Beta and the Alpha, Emma and Lila filled her in on everything that happened during this period of time.Everyone in the pack was currently afraid of the Alpha, and even the mention of his name made the pack members tremble. It had been a while since they had experienced the brutal and merciless side of the Alpha. Apparently, only when she turned completely healthy did they believ that the Alpha’s mental state would start to ease.Hearing about all the scenarios of the Alpha’s questioning and torture, Serenity gulped, feeling that she had a great time being unconscious.She was visited by other pack members as well. All of them came with the well wishes of her recovery, probably holding hopes of how that would make t
Serenity blinked her eyes, not understanding how to process that.“You could come to see me when I am awake. Why are you sneaking around like a thief? Don’t tell me that you are doing something inappropriate to my body.” Serenity gasped.The next instant she hugged her body. Her hazel eyes held accusations in them as she stared at the Alpha, moving back to increase the space between them.“It is nothing like that. I am merely here to check up on you. I couldn’t gather time earlier,” Kieran coldly responded. The gentleness that tainted his eyes previously was not there anymore.Serenity truly was about to throw a fit again about the attitude he showed when treating her.“Is that so? I get it. You are an Alpha. There is a lot of things you are busy with all the time. Obviously, it is not that important comparatively to come visit me. I understand well.” Serenity’s tone was spiteful.
After a long time of waiting and trying, Serenity was finally able to get in comtect with her friend, Jane. The entire time her phone was out of service, and this made Serenity feel concerned.“Serenity, how are you doing? I jheard that you got really badly hurt. I am sorry. I should have warned you about it before,” Jane’s loud voice came from other side of the phone, laced with pure concern and panic.Serenity chuckled. “I still have hard time moving my shoulder, but other than that, I am fine. You should have seen how coolly I handled those werewolves. They should not be labeling me as a weak human anymore.”“It’s not you if you don’t joke about it,” Jane commented.“Is there any use of being so serious about it? Although it hurts, what matters is that I survived. What has been going on with you for so long? Are you doing fine? What about the pack? Did you all get hurt?” Serenity inquire
Because of her wounded shoulder, Serenity could not lift her arms well and do much tasks. Richard was responsible for preparing the meals. Serenity sat on the table, swinging her kegs as she imoatiently waited for her brother to bring the food.“Hurry up, Richard! I am going tp starve to death at this rate!” Serenity shouted.Richard shot his younger sister a look of dissatisfaction. Ever since the day she learned that she was his younger sister, it seemed that she had lost all of her reservatiom and respect towards him. It was common for her to raise her voice towards him and order him around. She often made trouble for him as if taking revenge for hiding his identity.Then, the corner of his lips curled up to a smile. Richard expressed, “The pace of my cooking depends on my mood. If I end up feeling upset, it might take you a week to receive the meal.”Not about to lose to him, Serenity arched up her eyebrow. There was a mischevi
