Chapter 22Lucianna’s POVDarkness has consumed the light and I kept on pacing back and forth inside my room.I can just lock myself here and try not to come out but well, I remembered that Jacob somehow managed to come inside the room so that was useless to do anymore!‘If you only complete the mating with--’‘Oh, shut up! I won’t do that!’ I cut my wolf from suggesting the same thing again.She whined but went silent.I sighed.Okay. Calm down, Lucianna or you won’t think of a better plan to do this. Breathe, okay?I tried making my mind work and after a while, I decided to be sure of the information I have by now.‘Harleyyy?’ I called on to the portal with Jacob’s Gamma.‘Yes, lamb?’ he quickly responded.I pouted. Why is he calling me lamb? This is the second time he called me that but I don’t have time to ask him why. My time is running.‘Uh, where are you?’‘Why are you asking? Don’t tell me-’I snorted.‘I’m just asking ‘cause I don’t want to be here alone with your mighty alph

Chapter 23Lucianna’s POVI don’t know if its from exhaustion or Jacob’s warmth are just too comfortable that I fell asleep.Almost stumbling off the bed, I opened my eyes and looked to my side where I felt Jacob’s breath on my cheeks.He’s dead asleep.He was right when he said he’s too exhausted. Well, from all those sleepless nights for fucking his whores, of course.I scoffed silently.Jacob’s hand is rested on my stomach. I took my time to look at his face.He really is handsome…Those thick, manly shape brows and long lashes of him is what I’m envious of. No wonder the way he gaze at me always makes my heart flutter.It feels good. He feels good beside me.If only he didn’t…Sigh.There’s nothing to hope now, nothing can be moved backwards. And every scene of his infidelity will be stuck in my head like a venom on blood.Remembering it always makes my blood boil. Makes my mood sour, and the sight of him disgusts me.Hm, I think the night is still early. Did I sleep for too long-

Chapter 24Lucianna’s POVThe color of Jacob’s eyes is richer than blood. It’s so red that it looked scary.I tried calming myself because my heart is in chaos, I can literally hear my heartbeats on my ear. It’s too loud and fear is clouding my head.I can’t. I shouldn’t.My walls of defense heightened as I tried to fought the deadly aura that Jacob has been emitting. That helped me calm down.Dylan is still on his knees, giving respect to my mate. My body is trembling but I managed to get down from the rock and moved beside Dylan in protective stance.I have a bad feeling about this.As if on cue, the moment when Jacob killed Justin flashes in my mind and I paled. I don’t want another innocent life to lose just because of me.I don’t think I’m worth a life.Jacob jumped from the top of the Hill and landed in front of us. His eyes are on me, those bright red eyes pierced through my soul that my conscience acted up.I felt guilty.“W-What are you doing here?” I managed to ask as I wal

Chapter 25Lucianna’s POVI don’t recall how we manage to reach back home but right now, I’m laying on his bed with him settled on top of me.“J-Jacob~”His kisses were deep that I can feel anger from it. I can feel how my sexual urges elevates higher with every minutes that has passed with his lips on mine.“Don’t think of running away from me…” he said in between kisses.My top is nowhere to be found and I’m almost bare if he also had taken off my panties. I can’t remember how he ripped me off my clothes, I was so drowned with these ecstatic feelings he sent.“I want you mine. You’re mine.”My mind is clouded with dark desires, its too strong, I can’t follow on what he murmurs about!“I’ll do everything to keep you close. I want you so much, Lucianna…”What is he talking about?! Oh, god! Stop talking and keep on kissing me!“Ahh~!” I screamed my moan when his palm grabbed my breast, playing on its peak with his calloused fingers.I bit my lower lip hard when his lips travelled down

Chapter 26Lucianna’s POVI feel hot. All over. My body feels like burning, it does not hurt but its calling for something.I’m in terrible heat!This wave is so different from what I had before. I can’t stop thinking about Jacob, and my body yearns for him, for his touch, for his presence!“J-Jacob!” Before my tongue connects to my mind, I already screamed his name.Jacob entered the room, slamming the door wide open.I was trembling, not in pain, not because I’m hurt. It sounds pathetic but its because my body wants him.I want him now.This feels like I’m under a spell!“Jacob! Please--!”I don’t know what I’m asking for. I’m not fucking aware of what I want but every words sounded right to me!Fuck you, mate bond!My core throbbed even harder. Is the bond cursing me?! What I’m feeling got worse with every wrath I have with the bond in my head.“I’m here, Lucianna.” Jacob held me in his arms and I fucking clung to him like he is the source of my life!Fuck!“Make it stop! Please!”

Chapter 27Lucianna’s POVMy body shivered from Jacob’s icy glare. The veins in his arms are visible as he held my phone tight with his hand.I gulped.I made another trouble.There was silence between us and we just continued to look at each other. His eyes, glaring at mine while I tried my best to look innocent though I’m sure he knew I’m not.I waited then Jacob just sighed that took me off guard.He extended his arms to hand my phone to me and I slowly reached for it. None of us break the eye contact.“Jacob--”“Tell me again that ‘that’ beta was just a ‘friend’.” his voice is dry and his smirk is full of sarcasm.“I--”“I thought I was wrong about the impression of you the first time we met. I guess old habit dies hard, huh.”My mind was lost for a moment. What did I show him at the mapping ball to say that? As far as I can remember, I kept on throwing myself at him.“I will be out for two days starting tomorrow. I’m heading to the Prime pack to settle the treaty renewal with Aid

Chapter 28Lucianna's POVI decided to cook steak and veggies for the side. I want to, no, I need to persuade Jacob about taking me with him to the Prime pack. So bad.A sweet intoxicating scent lingered on my nose that made me inhaled deep to fill my lungs with it.He’s here!I quickly went to the entrance door, almost stumbling on my feet and my action are full of excitement.The door opened before I could open it for him, and so my feet halted before I crash to Jacob's chest.I grinned, my lips trembled as I faked it."Welcome home!"Jacob frowned for a while before sighing and taking off his coat. I saw how a small smile crept into his face.Hmp! He sure find me funny!"I'll take your coat!" I said as I grabbed on his coat and which he let me have. I placed it at the stand and shifter my weight to face him and flashes a sweet smile."I made dinner. It's all set in the kitchen, come!"My hand caught his and pulled him to the kitchen. I thanked the heavens that he let me pull him ea

Chapter 29Lucianna’s POV“I can’t believe we’ll stay for a week, Jake.”I glanced at Brent who spoke as he shook his head.We’re on our way to the Prime pack riding Jacob’s black rhino truck. Harley drives and Brent sat up front next to him. Jacob and I were seated at the back and I made sure that one fluffy bag is placed between us.Another car was behind us where another two of Jacob’s shifters are. We are six commuters, overall.“Didn’t know you have a problem with that.” Jacob replied with a lazy tone so I decided to butt in before the conversation died down.“Why? How long do you guys used to stay for renewal?”Brent looked at me and then to Jacob before looking at the road again.“Usually two or three days.”“And? Why are we staying for a week now?”Does the two pack has personal troubles they had to fix? I can’t think of anything that may cause us to stay longer than necessary.Oh well, I won’t stay long, that is for sure.Brent laughed and Harley joined him. I frowned and loo

Chapter 73Lucianna’s POVI heard Jacob’s voice while Harley was talking. The Gamma reported that Roscoe came to visit and that we talked in private but he didn’t add things that will complicate a mind. Though I doubt Jacob will think odd of his brother’s visit, given the situation we are in.My breathing got heavy when the two nodded their goodbyes and Jacob looked my way. Exactly at me, in my eyes, as if he knew I’m standing there and watching them.My reflexes say I should hide, away from his soulless eyes but I can’t. I didn’t. Instead, I walked towards the front door where Jacob were also headed. Jacob stopped just outside the door, right in front of me and I stopped inside, a step away from him.We stood there, eyes locked with each other and I have no idea what’s working on his head. Jacob shows no expression, same thing he has been doing since what had happened. And I can’t read his thoughts, nor his feelings.Is he waiting? I think he’s waiting for me to speak, to tell him so

Chapter 72 Lucianna’s POV “I mean abortion, Lucianna. We have to kill the pup inside your womb in exchange of enough time.” I swear, all the blood running through my veins left. I froze, and I stopped breathing. Killing the pup… God, that sounds so wrong because it fucking is! “You’re proposing to kill my child, Roscoe.” I stated because he seems to forgot that fact. “Yes--” “My own child. Its your family, too!” “I know that, Lucianna! But do we have a choice? We’re already in this problem, and we got no other options to choose from.” he bowed his head and sighed before looking back at me. “Its either let Jacob die or kill the pup before it consume your mate.” I put my hands up to stop him, unable to can’t hear any more of this. Roscoe has a point and it is clear but I am not thinking of killing my own child. I’m hopeful,I’m still hoping for a miracle to save us all from the fate’s curse. But Roscoe is also right that we have no time. And I have no time to continue hoping. Bu

Chapter 71Jacob’s POV“And I think you’ve brought us trouble.” says the visitor.Even though I can’t see her face, I know she’s looking right at me. The emotion of fear comes to me very seldom and that’s when I have no knowledge of something. When there’s something I have no answer about, or I’m left with no resolve.But this woman, well I can’t say she’s human exactly. And I think I’m having that particular emotion right now.Fhoxia is her name, right? And this Fhoxia is not from the living, its dead. She got no presence, no scent, no shadow, nothing.All the inhibitions I had, all the doubts and mistrust was left with certainty. Lucianna and Roscoe are telling the truth and even if I believe them, this woman’s presence alone makes me believe.“He didn’t mean to.” Roscoe spoke, trying to cover up for me. Its not only I who recognize who Fhoxia was talking to.Fhoxia turned her head to Roscoe, ever slowly, the slowest motion I have ever see.“Doesn’t mean he was not to blame.” the fe

Chapter 70Ashira’s POV“Come again?” Roscoe tilted his head and his brow furrowed. “What did you say?” he asked Jacob again.I was fidgeting on my seat while watching the brothers fought glances with each other. Jacob bit his lip and looked away first. I can tell how guilty he is, Jacob never looked away first when it comes to Roscoe.“You-” Roscoe can’t finish his sentence. He backed away and sat on the chair with a thud.“I didn’t--”“She will get pregnant!” Roscoe cut Jacob’s words and he stood up as hastily as how he sat. Jacob let out a sigh and closed his eyes shut, his jaws clenching hard.I’m still in a daze here.After the ‘accident’ as we start to call it, Jacob kept on apologizing over and over again. He claim he didn’t mean it, he claimed that he has no intention to finish inside. It was not his plan, and I know he’s telling the truth.Roscoe arrived after midnight while the pack was still enjoying their booze and dancing their life. He caught us in the moment of despair

Chapter 69Brent was making his speech in the middle of the Hall where a stage was placed. The crowd was in a circle, the music had died down, and people of Shadow pack listened as the pack’s beta talked.“Let’s stay here while Brent do his thing.” Jacob whispered on my ears. We’re at the stairs, halfway down the crowd when he stopped me by clinging on my waist. His pack was oblivious of our presence, they are focused at Brent.“Do you remember your first night here?” he asked after a while, his fingers are drawing circles on my stomach.I rolled my eyes from his question. “How could I forget? That night is the first of my worst.”He grunted. “Yeah, I was a jerk. I’m sorry.”“You were forgiven. Why’d you asked?”“Well, the moment you stepped out of the vehicle that night, I already caught your scent.” then he sniffed on my hair. “…the scent haven’t changed at all.”I froze when I felt something poking behind me. Jacob is aroused!Clearing my throat, I moved, trying to inch away from h

Chapter 68LuciannaI woke up the next day with morning kisses. Jacob’s face is buried on my neck, showering my skin with wet kisses, his hand on my stomach hugged tighter when he noticed I’m finally awake.“Good morning?” he asked, chuckling a bit, his head lifted and he smirked at me. I had to roll my eyes from how confident he sounded. Well, he could act that way because clearly, he earned the confidence last night.I groaned when my body shivered when I shifted. “I can’t believe its morning already. I feel sore all over, and I wonder who’s to blame for this.” I narrowed my eyes at Jacob’s grinning face. “What did you do to me? I think I’m suffering an amnesia or something.”Jacob let out a throaty laugh. “Come on now, baby, don’t feed my ego too much.” he bent down and planted a quick kiss on my lips.“Or maybe… I was trying to have some more.” I grinned. “If I’m calculating, you still owe me fifty-nine more.”He squinted his eyes. “Because. If I may remind, you fainted.” I laughe

Chapter 67Lucianna’s POVI was watching Ashira by the garden with folded arms on my chest and a swelling feeling on my heart. My friend would rather be with the birds and listen to them sing than have Aiden by his side. Its sad, really.There is no way I could relate with how this all works. Ashira forgetting her own mate, Aiden’s pain, the unborn child that has no clue with what is happening in the world. If I’m in their shoes… nah, I can’t relate. I sighed.Footsteps coming from behind straighten my back. It’s Aiden, and I felt him stopped behind me. He’s probably looking at Ashira now, too. Gawking at his mate like how he’s doing for the past days.“She’s going to be gone for a while, is she?” I said in a whisper.The silence is deafening and Aiden’s aura has been so sad that my eyes started to form tears. I sniffed.“She won’t.” Aiden answered gruffly. “Not to me.” then he walked forward and stopped beside me. The rays of the sun glowed his golden-brown eyes and those eyes didn’t

Chapter 66Jacob’s POV“We all know that Roscoe lost his mate before they could even meet. The occurrence made the shadow eye transferred to you, the second born.”Lucianna goes on and explained further but my focus was divided as I questioned what just happened.I never lose my cool, I never lost to my wolf. The argument we had are not that intense for my alpha power to take over. Heck, I will never use it to Lucianna!Despite the confusion, I made sure to keep it to myself and mask the knocking feeling. My brother is here, and I hate showing any weakness or flaw when he’s around.Though god knows how much I wanted to kneel and hug Lucianna for using the alpha on her-- even unintentionally.“Hundred years ago, the same incident happened in Shadow pack. The second born got the shadow eye, the same reason you got yours. The first born is mate-less and he took revenge just how Roscoe did, and the second born died. Everyone thought the first born killed the second.” Lucianna inhaled deep

Chapter 65Jacob’s POVI escorted Roscoe down the mountain and mind-linked Lucianna that we will meet her at the Prime’s guesthouse. At first, I entertained the thought that our conversation could take place at the mountain, wait for Lucianna and have the decent privacy. Not when Aiden’s guards noticed Roscoe’s presence in the pack lands. I earned a bit scolding from Aiden for trespassing his territory but he has a lot in his hands right now to come down and personally meet with us. Thankfully, he let this one go.Soft knocks from the door ended the silent eye-contact Roscoe and I have been doing. I stood up lazily and gave him one last warning look which earned a sigh from him then I headed to the door.Despite the guesthouse rooms being wolf-proof, I could feel that Lucianna was the one behind the door.‘Please tell me you are decently clothed.’ I teased our portal.A loud bang came from the door when Lucianna responded with a loud knock. I’m not even sure if it was a knock.Chuckli
