Chapter 37Jacob’s POVAfter my heated scene with Lucianna, I went straight to the pack hall with a raging hard-on in between my pants.My attraction towards Lucianna grows much greater than before ever since I let go of my useless pride and accepted my defeat in domination.It’s becoming a problem for me because the control I had gained has melted, and its not a good move to be swayed by my sexual urges now that I’ve decided to let her go.I might end up forcing myself to her and I don’t want that though I badly desire to do it with her.Setting that aside, another threat will be coming anytime soon.“Any sign of his arrival at any of the borders?”Roscoe…My older brother, the true heir of the alpha title, the first born. I can’t believe it has been nine years since he was banned in our packland by father.“There’s none, Jake.” Brent answered. “Do you think he’ll cause trouble?”Exhaling, I tried to calm myself. I’m not scared of my brother, of any evil things he did, I’m not. But I

Chapter 38Jacob’s POV‘Stop right there, Roscoe!’ I said to him thru our mind link. He’s been playing games, running around like a mad wolf. Brent and I can’t catch up to him, his moves differ from way back and the fact that he has the alpha blood in him means he was fast, too.Yes, I can communicate with him through the mind-link. Being gone for nine months, his loyalty remained in the pack, which means Roscoe doesn’t go rogue or joined another pack.‘What? Can’t catch up to me? Still a weakling, brother.’ his roar of laughter echoed in my head.My teeth gritted hard. Fueled by anger, I sped up fast, ignoring all the restraint and peace Brent tried to plant in my head.Roscoe jumped to the tree to maneuver his direction of running when I was about to grab him with my jaw. Instead of going after him, I circled away and dive to where he was headed.Roscoe’s paws dug on the ground, causes the soil and grass to flew from the impact. My wolf is larger than his even when I’m the second ch

Chapter 39Lucianna’s POV“Is it okay...” I cleared my throat and looked away from his conversing eyes.It was too much to look at now that I knew something about him. I’m giving meaning to it when I shouldn’t.“Hmm..” he moaned and nodded his head. I blinked twice, leaning on the headboard and looking front while Jacob continued to watch me.Well, since I won’t have sleep tonight that I’m curious about something, I guess I should ask him about it.“Harley told me your, uh, brother tried to…” why is it so hard to say? Just thinking about it makes me cringe.“To kill me? It’s okay Lucianna, I’ve told you before, I want to be true to you.”I cranked my neck to slightly have a look at him. His eyes are sincere and deep, almost reminiscing and even though he hasn’t spilled a word, I’m already aching.“Yes, Roscoe tried to kill me. Nine years ago, my father declared that I will succeed his position and my brother was, I guess, not pleased.” he smirked, a sly one that I can say he was tryin

Chapter 40Jacob’s POVI don’t wanna pressure her but I think she is pressured so I opted to change the ambiance between us and go on with the stories I’ve kept in my head for so long.“There’s nothing I remember of my past but that tragedy. It all began when I opened myself to Roscoe, tell him the things I never knew I shouldn’t have said…”Nine Years Ago…I run to the training grounds where my brother was scheduled to be at by that time. Huffing and almost out of breath.I’ve just seen something I shouldn’t.Roma, the head of fighters under my father’s regime of the Shadow pack, has a tremendous reddish smoke-like on his shadow as he looked at my father.It creep me out, when he looked at me, the red smoke of shadow behind him formed as to what I think was evil. It looked as if it wanted me, so I have nothing to do but run.Run to someone who always protects me.“Roscoe!” I called. He was busy brawling with his trainer when I came here.“Hey kiddo!” he greeted while being straggled

Chapter 41Lucianna’s POVJacob pulled me up, with his arms snaked on my waist to adjust me to a more comfortable position. He laid above my body, his huge body almost covered mine while his lips stayed kissing me, even better each passing second.“Jacob…” is all I can utter, my moans of pleasure from his drowning kisses. His hand found its way inside my clothes, fully cupping my breast and the brassiere felt like its not there. His warmth sipped in straight to my skin and my body become sensitive, longing and yearning for his touch.“Lucianna…” his whispers sounded like a perfect harmony best made only for me. He pulled away, not too much but enough distance to look at me.I opened my eyes when his kisses stopped, and I don’t know if I looked frustrated by it. I don’t really care.“Tell me to stop if you don’t want this. I… won’t be able to stop if this pushed farther--”“Shh.” I smiled, placing my finger on his lip. “You’ve given your warning, Jacob.” my thumb caress his bottom lip

Chapter 43Lucianna’s POV“I think this pots are fine, right, Lucianna?” Anabel asked with a smile after she checked all the pots we bought in a local store.I nodded with a smile. “We got everything on the list.”She teasingly poked my sided. “Ohh. Wanted to go home that fast, huh?”I flushed.Anabel become our alarm this morning, she woke Jacob and I while we cuddled sleeping. Having breakfast with her and went to shop for Jacob’s backyard that we will turn into a garden.“N-No, of course not.” I denied but yes, Jacob kept calling in my head saying he went home early. He is home too early, to be honest.Anabel laughed and snaked her arm over my shoulder as we walk.“You know, he will be like that, missing you too much. Every single day.”“H-How-”“Come on, it smells fresh that you two had just completed the process of mating. It’s fine, its totally normal.”“Until when… will he act like this?”Ana chuckled. “Oh, darling, until your last breath. Alejandro is still the same, more now

Chapter 44Lucianna’s POV“I’m ready.” Jacob announced as he came out of his room.I rolled my eyes at him while Harley chuckled beside me. “Jacob…” Oh my, I don’t want to start with this again but he’s too cute!His shoulder dropped as he sighed. “I am… ready to go to the hall and work.”Harley laughed loud and I think he wasn’t able to contain it anymore. Jacob grinned at him but only for a second because his expression turned serious as he watch his third in command. “Fun’s done, get out.” he snapped.I stick my tongue out to a smiling Harley and he just shrugged at me before walking out of the house.Jacob’s arms was quick to wrap on my waist. He groaned in my ears as his grip tightened. “I don’t want to let you go.” he murmured.“Nope. I’m gonna be late.” I tiptoed and planted a kiss on his cheeks, grinning after.Jacob frowned. “That is not how you should kiss your mate goodbye.”My lips parted from that. Ugh, he’s starting to emit his desires again, I can feel it!“Let me show

Lucianna’s POV“Why proceed with it, then?” Aiden asked, wincing a bit from the heaviness of his words. I just told them about the Shadow eye and the curse of it because of a mishap that the first born didn’t inherit the gift.“Aiden! You can't tell a mother to get rid of her pup.” Ashira answered, agitated on my behalf. Aiden looked at me with apologizing gaze but the way his jaw clenched tells me his vote is just the same as Roscoe’s.“I actually tried to.” the sigh that came out of my lips was cold as memories came rushing.“Ohmy! Luce!” my friend's eyes were wide from shock, covering her mouth and tears forming on her eyes.My smile has shame lingering on it. This is a new emotion on my part. I always thought that I haven't done anything wrong when I decided to went with Roscoe on that cave. Maybe its because this is the first time I talked about it with a person of a same gender. Plus, Ash is a mother now so she can relate more than I could imagine how horrible what I did. I su

Lucianna’s POVRoscoe came and as soon as he get off his car, we exchanged a look that lasts for almost a minute. There was a lot in our eye language and it’s more like him saying ‘I told you so,’ and mine were ‘We’re in this situation so fucking try and talk with your mate’s body’. I saw his shoulder sagged as he sighed but headed to where Fhoxia was as if he read my mind.I really hope Roscoe can get something, anything, from Fhoxia. He does before, he still felt the bond between him and his mate’s body that the messenger borrowed. So I hoped, keep on hoping, there’s nothing I could do anyway.“He’s been there for how long?” Harley asked behind me.Time has reached a spot on top of my list that I prioritized to forget, so I just shrugged Harley’s question. Now watching Roscoe has made me feel dreaded in the guts so I decided to head inside and sit on the couch. Harley lingered longer by the porch, watching my brother-in-law like a hawk.I don’t know if I feel excited or anxious with

Lucianna’s POV“She’s creepy.” Harley commented as we drank coffee out at the porch. “How long has she been here?”“One week now.” I sighed. “I keep on asking her why she’s here but she won’t talk. Roscoe won’t be here until later this evening but he told me over the phone that Fhoxia didn’t reached out to him either.”“It means this messenger has no message to deliver? So, what, just being nosy?”I scoffed. “Bite me, I don’t know either.”“And Roscoe will be here? Jacob finally permitted his return?”Jacob gave a temporary ban for Roscoe after what happened in the cave. My mate hated the idea that his brother kept on deciding things for him.“Yeah, he only agreed this morning. He didn’t want to, I just convinced him since Roscoe might be the one Fhoxia could talk to or something.”“And that is why?”I sighed and nudged my mug at the messenger’s direction . “That body was borrowed from a dead woman. The dead woman was Roscoe’s mate.” Harley’s jaw dropped and before he could pry more,

A month has passed. A cough coming from our bedroom made me jumped from my deep thoughts. I was having my coffee in the kitchen and Jacob was at our bedroom. Laying down on our bed even when the sun has shone for an hour and a half.Not because he feel lazy to go to the Hall like he used to, but because he has become weak. His eyes had sunken with dark circles under it, there’s hollow in his cheeks, his skin has become dull and dry and no matter how much I put lipbalm in his lips, it keeps on cracking. His body was not as strong as he was. And everyday he get worse.I can barely look at him in this state but the only time I wasn’t by his side were morning like this. I drink my coffee alone then I’d cry my heart out without making a sound and spend the rest of my day beside him again. This is the time I used to outlet my sadness, fear and every other emotion I couldn’t show in front of him.There was still no news about another way. There’s still no another way and I lose the hope on

I was asked to lay down on a stone table. The coldness touched the bare skin of my back and arms, making my eyes shut hard.“No need to be scared,” the enchantress said, standing on my side while rummaging into a box of small bottles. A potion, maybe?Harley and Roscoe are on the other side of the cave, or the enchantress’s home, as she calls it. There’s no way they would hear our conversation.“Will it hurt?” I asked in a low, trembling voice.The enchantress looked straight into my eyes and there was something in the way she look at me. She was saying something, her eyes were saying something. She doubted my resolve in continuing with this procedure, I know that was what she think.“It will sting.” she smiles but arched a brow, as if testing if I will back down.But I closed my eyes and relaxed.“You’re not scared.” she stated, not asked. It was as if a question in her head was answered.I sighed, long and painful. “No.”“I want to know why,” she demanded with a tone that she wouldn

Lucianna’s POVI cut off the portal I shared with Jacob, feeling the severed connection like a heavy weight lifting from my chest—and yet, a gnawing pit settled in my stomach. It was better this way. He didn’t need to know where I was going, especially for what I was about to do. The decision had been far from easy, but once I made up my mind, there was no turning back. I wouldn’t allow myself to back down.“Calm down, gamma,” Roscoe’s chuckle was low, rough, and filled the silence like an unwanted echo. “You look so pale, I’d wonder if your blood left your veins.” His voice trailed off, almost as if he were talking to himself—though in a car full of werewolves, he knew better. I sighed, a breath that didn’t even begin to ease the tension coiled tightly within me.“Cut it out, Roscoe,” I muttered, my voice steady though my mind was racing. I could feel Harley next to me, practically vibrating with barely suppressed irritation. “Just drive.”The sleek growl of the engine hummed beneath

Jacob hadn’t returned home since last night and I haven’t slept a blink. Thinking over and over again about my decision, I cried all night and prayed, continuously apologizing to the unborn child in my womb.“You called for me?”It was Harley. Of course I called for him, I needed someone by my side right now and since Jacob was against this idea, I had to call for someone who wouldn’t turn down my heeding.“Yes.” I wiped my face and stood up. I probably looked like a mess right now but I couldn’t care anymore. “I also called for, uh, Roscoe. Expect his presence in a bit, I’ll just get something from my room.”Harley’s POVEverything was a mess around the pack. I heard Jacob was scolding his staff and throwing things everywhere. Brent told me, of course. He’d been snooping about what was happening with Jake and Luce that may had caused Jacob’s nonstop tantrums over the Hall.Of course I said nothing. I promised Lucianna I wouldn’t tell a soul about Jacob losing his control of his wolf

Jacob’s POVI once again looked at the corpse, it was shredded into pieces. It’s skull was crushed, bones torned apart and cracked. There was blood everywhere, from the ground up to the trees. The body was divided into four pieces and the head was retrieved up the branch of a tree.“Please forgive me, Alpha Jacob.” said Jordan. One of the council, head of trackers that also conduct the investigation. “I failed to distinguish the entity of the corpse, Alpha.” he bowed and the rest of his team bowed as well.There was no question to why they failed. The core of the corpse was gone, making it hard to distinguish it. Without the core--its heart-- a werewolf wouldn’t shift back to human. No one would know if it was a werewolf or a forest wolf.But I knew.The moment I arrived, the air whispered to my ears. The smell of death lingered in my nose. And the howl of a werewolf called my Alpha wolf.The corpse was a shape-shifter like us. Definitely a rogue because there was no distinguished pac

The door open and shut but I did not bother to look who it was. I can smell Harley, anyway. He just got back from the crime scene. I bit my fingernails from the nervousness I feel inside.What did he find out? Is it a shifter? A regular wolf? Damn it!I did not bother looking at Harley when I felt his presence in the living room. Pretending that I was watching the TV, I stopped biting my nails and inhaled slowly.“How’s everything out there?” I asked in a normal voice.Harley exhaled loud. “Just a wolf. Badly torn apart though.” he slumped himself down the couch. “How’s the talk with the brother?”I shrugged. “Just the usual.”“Yeah, like I know the usual, right?” he said sarcastically.I looked at him and squinted my eyes. Why was he so grumpy? “Someone twisted your panties or something?”Harley shook his head and looked away. It looked like he was thinking about something and wanted to say it out loud but also thinking if he should.“Don’t tell me you will act like that all day? Bec
