**********FLASHBACK***********
It was night and very dark at this point. I was going home from work that night because my shift ended very late. I'm not usually afraid of walking at night but this particular night, I was getting strange feelings. I turned to the corner of my street when someone started running towards me all of a sudden. I was a bit flustered and didn't know what to do at first.
I just moved a bit from the way and followed another corner, then I noticed the person followed me. I stopped walking and turned swiftly to scream, he already stopped me from talking by covering my mouth. I felt strange at that moment, I could not talk.
"Please, I'm not going to hurt you. Help me please, I promise I'm not a bad person." He pleaded with me.
I nodded still a bit scared, I gestured to him to leave my mouth. He did, I almost screamed but he covered my mouth again. I can't even see his face, this place is so dark. How do I know he is not a serial killer hiding for the police?
"I am not being chased by the police. Some bad people want to rob me and I have something very important. They want to kill me, they won't do anything to you if you just tell them you didn't see me. Please, I promise I won't hurt you." He whispered softly.
I don't know why I agreed to do this. After he removed his hands from my mouth, I showed him where to hide since I am very familiar with the area. He was limping, he seemed to be injured. Why do I still feel like this man is a criminal on the run?
I stepped out and those people stopped running right in front of me. I brought out my acting skills, I started fake crying. They were five in number carrying different types of weapons and a bag. Why would five people be chasing just one person seriously?
"Miss, are you okay?" One of them asked me.
"I don't know who he is…. I wanted to go to my house and he attacked me suddenly. He said he would hunt me down if I said anything. Then he ran that way." I pointed to an entirely different road that would take them a long time before they get back here.
"It's okay Miss. Do not cry, go back home. He won't be leaving here alive enough to kill you. Quickly go back home, let's go boys." They assured me and ran in that direction.
I acted like I was going home till they were out of sight. I walked back to that man, he had told me to move closer to those men to confuse them and I didn't understand why though. Good thing they're gone, I suddenly feel sorry for this man.
"I have to go home now. I'm sorry I don't trust you too. You can leave that way, you'll be gone before they come back even if you were crawling." I told him.
I quickly left the place for my own safety. I was still scared because I didn't know who he was and didn't see his face well. Though I did have this strange feeling and I could not get the event out of my head all night. I wonder who he is and why those people are chasing him with those weapons. After careful consideration, I came to the conclusion that they are gang members. Perhaps opposite gang members chasing each other.
***********FLASHBACK ENDED***********
I stared at him intently. I just keep getting this feeling that he is familiar somehow. After eating my fill, I waited for him to start telling me about himself and what was really going on. He came back a while later and sat beside me.
"I am the Alpha King of this pack. My pack is called the Ace Pack, and you are from the Blue Knights Pack. Your father is the Alpha of the pack…"
I stopped him, "Hold it right there Mr Alpha, what? What's Alpha? What pack? I don't understand anything. Are you a werewolf or something because that only happens in fantasy novels and movies? It's not real alright, you need to stop watching all these movies and--"
I stopped when I remembered what happened to me before. What if I'm just exaggerating and it wasn't real? Oh my God! This is actually real. I looked down at his fingers and saw them grow into claws. My body shook as I moved away from him terrified. Werewolves exist in real life?
"You were saying?"
"I...I don't understand. Am I… I mean Lea is a werewolf too? I thought this only happened in movies. What's going on?" I stuttered.
He shook his head, "Now I am convinced you hurt your head somewhere. I'm going to help you because you're my mate."
"Mate? But I'm not the one you're looking for, how do you know I'm your mate?"
"You've asked me that before and I gave you an answer. I'll be going out now, if you need anything you can ring the bell and they'll be here to serve you. I'll get you a phone so I can be able to call you when I'm out." He said, then stood up and left the room.
So I'm supposed to stay in here all day for the rest of my life trying to recover from what never happened to me? I stayed in the room all day bored to death. The door suddenly opened and I thought he returned. I don't know why I'm so eager to see him, maybe because he's the only one I know here.
Someone else walked in. He stopped to stare at me.
"You're not Luna, you're a replacement aren't you?" That's what he first said.
"Is it that obvious?" I asked him, hoping I'll finally leave this place.
"I heard of how you kept asking everything and looking at you, you didn't hurt your head. Alpha Damon is only treating you this way because he thinks you're her. You will be just a replacement until the real one is found. You should know your place and be careful…"
"Excuse you… I didn't ask to be brought here, you know. Stop trying to make me feel like I planned this." I said getting offended.
"I'll be leaving now. Excuse me." He bowed and walked out of the room.
What an arrogant bastard. Alpha Damon seems to be the only nice person around here. I badly want to get out of here. Someone save me please. I can't believe I am staying between werewolves, this is a nightmare. I want my normal life back. This is all Eric's fault.
DONNIE'S POV I truly want to get out of here. Why do I have to stay with a bunch of people who can only see nothing but a gold digger when they look at me. It seems the workers also suspect I am not the supposed queen or princess of this werewolf pack. True, because I am a human and not a werewolf. So what the heck?! I didn't ask to be here and I would do them the honour of leaving as soon as I get the chance to. I haven't seen that Alpha Damon or whatever he's called. He went out since and hasn't returned. Is he dead? Is he never coming back, perhaps this is an opportunity to run away. This so called guy who doesn't like me should be able to help me leave. At least be d believes me and badly wants me to leave the pack. We are on the same side at this point. I paced around the room thinking of a way to approach him and give him the stupid but necessary idea. If he helps me, he won't have to worry about his boss or whatever getting tricked by someone like me as he says. The door
DAMON'S POV She still doesn't remember me. No matter what I do and how much I want to force her to. I don't want to pressure her to the point where she will feel too uncomfortable because of me. I really care about her and I wish so much that she could see that. Her being in this state makes me too damn uncomfortable. I really don't know what to do anymore. She may not remember but I am alive now thanks to her. So whatever I have to do to help her too, I'll do it. I just want her to remember me at least and for things to go back to the way they used to be. I went out of the house to cool my head and attend to a few things. I was hoping she would get a recollection by the time I returned. But I found she still doesn't remember me. And from the look of things, my beta doesn't believe she is Lea. Even I don't know what to believe at this point. Either my beta just hates her or she really isn't Lea. I shrugged the thought off and went to get her drugs. Then the workers followed me wi
DONNIE'S POV I did not go outside after he left. I wasn't feeling so comfortable knowing there are people outside probably protesting outside. Why do I suddenly care for him? Have I forgotten I used to love Eric a few days ago? Why do I suddenly care about how another man feels? Maybe this is just gratitude that I feel. I took my bath and went into the bedroom with just a towel wrapped around my body. I looked through the window and saw them leaving. Wow, he handle that quite easier than I thought he would. I thought he was going to be so mad at all of them but he proved me wrong. I can't imagine what would have happened if they all rebelled against him. Could they beat him though? I read in fantasy novels and in movies that Alphas are pack leaders and seem to be one of the strongest. I opened the wardrobe after moving from the window so I could find something to wear. I looked at everything and nothing belongs to a female. I already washed my undies, how am I supposed to cover
DAMON'S POV After Lea walked out angrily, I did not go after her just so I wouldn't make things worse than they already are. I gave Hale a glare, he knows he's in trouble if she requests anything for me to do to him. He had his face down, but I can still feel that he's not sorry. Meanwhile, Lea's temper and tantrums are now something else. She's not usually this fun or picky or angry. She always acts like she is in charge and is always serious. This new side of her is so different. The old Lea would have asked for him to be beheaded probably. I guess he tried this because he felt she could not do anything. "See? She doesn't even want to listen to you. She is trying to recover and you are making things hard for her. I really don't know what to say to you than... You're in trouble big time Hale." I told him, also losing my appetite. "I apologize. I will take any punishment." He replied with his head bowed. "Enough with the punishment. Have you gathered the information I asked you
DAMON'S POV Another day of torture knowing that my mate doesn't still recognise me no matter what I do. I am going to see her father, Alpha Moore of the Blue Knights Pack. I want to give him an update regarding his daughter. Not that he is really that much interested in her but he still got mad when we could not find her again. He thought maybe I had done something to hurt her so she ran away. He would be shocked to hear all the things Lea does now. How she is now so annoying and somehow funny. She's not the serious ambitious self anymore. As much as I want her to remember, I still want to stop her from recalling anything. This is not right. I should wish for her to remember and not forget everything. But then I like this side of her more. And the fact that my wolf finally accepts her as my mate makes it even more better. "Because she is your mate. Her scent is the same and very clear." My wolf told me. "Isn't she?" I asked. "The old one wasn't your mate. This one is.." He re
DONNIE'S POV He's so selfish and annoying sometimes. I don't know why I find myself liking him despite denying me my freedom. I don't want to be with him if this is what he feels like. I don't think the real Lea would want to come back either if this is how he has been treating her like a fucking prisoner. After I left his study, I stayed in the room thinking of a way to get out unnoticed. Then an idea popped in my head. I heard him talking about going out this morning. I will lay low till he leaves the house. It's not like I am going to run away but at least I want to see the outside. I have been here long enough already and it's only fair I see other things. I saw him leaving while watching him through the window. As soon as their car got out of the compound, I set out to begin my plan. I opened the door and stepped out. I went straight to the kitchen to check on the workers. I saw one of them telling her friend she wanted to take a bath. She is about my size so I decided to us

DAMON'S POV I think something is really wrong. Why would my wolf identify her as my mate if she isn't the one? Lea most definitely does not like water. I have no idea what exactly is going on? Is she really someone else who exchanged souls with Lea? Why do they look so much alike but are totally different? Is it that a witch has perform sorcery on them and this girl is in another person's body?Perhaps is she impersonating Lea? What if she has done something to Lea and took over her body? What if she is an evil spirit waiting for the right moment to strike? This is all so confusing for me. I opened my mouth to say something but no words came out. I saw Hale looking at me, I ignored him and walked away. It most definitely would hurt my pride to tell him that he was actually right. I should stay away from her if she is not Lea. She also keeps saying she isn't Lea, I should have listened to her and not embarrass myself by showing how desperate I am to have her. I'm still not getti
DONNIE'S POV Where did I get the nerve to face someone this evil when I don't even know how to use my abilities well? I am just getting so angry even if I don't want to. She laughed hysterically, like she heard something funny. The fact that she was laughing at me made me more mad. Is she joking with me right now? I saw her face, the stroking resemblance is amazing. "Do you think I am in the mood to joke with you where did you keep my boyfriend and my sister I won't ask you again." I threatened fearlessly. She scoffed and stood up. Her expression changed immediately, so did the atmosphere. I felt scared and worried, but then I realized no one would save us if I don't do it. "Did you come into my house to threaten me you really have the guts don't you?" She sneered at me. I moved back till my back hit someone. The person smells familiar. I looked back and had a big shock. Hale! Is he here to save his Alpha? "You're here I want you to take this idiots to
DONNIE'S POV "NO! NO!!" A loud scream made me jump up. My heartbeat became too fast. I could literally hear it myself. Who screamed? And why am I sweating so much? I looked around for Damon, I realized I wasn't even in his room. I found the design of the room different. The table in front of me had an alcohol bottle and two glass cups. "What are you doing? Why did you scream like that?" She scolded me. That's when my brain woke up again. I looked at Lea who isn't very pleased with me. Her eyes showed tiredness. I remember coming here with a drink to reconcile with her. I decided to do this after consulting with Damon. I just realized that the one who screamed is me. I also remembered that I just had a bad dream. What's with me and bad dreams today? "I am very sorry. I shouldn't have screamed like that. You look very tired. Sorry I woke you up. I will leave now."I apologized and pulled myself up even though I felt drowsy. "What is it?" She asked making
LEA'S POV That was so embarrassing! My mate? That crazy guy is my mate? Of all the people I had to get, it had to be him? Is this a curse from the moon goddess or what? There is no way this will not be a curse from the Moon goddess. Why did I have to find this out now? Does this mean Damon was never really mine and I've just been fighting all these while for something I won't win? As if I have not seen enough already. I had to leave very early and go check on the prisoner, Amelia. I know my mother would be out of the house by this time. I called her my mother again. I happened to look around and heard her talking about going very early to see someone. I guess this must be the people working for her. I am the one who orchestrated this from the start and I really don't want to end it. I will not let her kill my father and my mother just like that after finding out everything she did. She has done enough harm to my family. It's time to stop her. She really crossed the
DAMON'S POV That was such a close call. I can't believe we almost died thanks to that idiot. I'm going to make his life in miserable one for daring to come and attack me in my own territory. He is my brother? This means the rumours I was hearing as a child were actually true. But dad will never cheat on my mother. I know this is a misunderstanding. His mother is the clingy one, that's what happened. "Take him to the dungeon. I am going to come attend to him later." I ordered my guards. "Yes, your highness!" They bowed and dragged his unconscious self away. I won't let him die like this. Since he wants to kill me, I will give him another opportunity to do so. It will be fair this time around. I turned to Donnie who is sitting on the floor. I pulled her into my arms in a tight embrace. It made my heart race really fast again. "Are you okay? You must have been very startled about what happened. Do you want me to get you something to drink?" I asked strokin
DONNIE My breath itched on my throat when I saw his weapon. It is the special gun he got from that hunter which is designed to quickly kill pure werewolves. I can't believe he really brought that here to kill him. What exactly is the issue with him and his hatred for Damon so much? I looked at him in anger then hands shaking a bit and my head spinning around, the only thing I can think about is Damon not getting hurt. If anything happens to him, I can't think be able to take it. I need to stop this man from doing something. Somehow, Damon and I seems to be the only ones who knows what his plans are now. “What do you think you're doing? Are you really crazy enough to try killing him in his own house?” I scolded him. He turns to look at me, his eyes are so red. I'm also curious to know what Damon has done to him, for him to hate Damon this much. "You came here to kill me with that didn't you?" Damon asked, his voice sounded very pissed. I held his hand immediately t
AIDEN'S POV I tried to sleep but every time I do, I only see the image of my mother getting murdered by the heartless wolves. It is hard for me to sleep every night and it has given me a huge trauma for fifteen years now. All I ever wanted to do was to get my revenge on those who did it. I found out a few years ago that the necklace my mom was holding when she died, belonged to the Alpha of the Ace pack. The same man that impregnated my mother and neglected her. He only cares about his other family and not me. I don't know why he thinks I am a mistake that should never have happened. He blames my mother for being irresponsible and forcing herself on him. It hurt me to listen to that as a child. Even though the part of my mom forcing herself on him was true, it still didn't give them any right to kill her. She was just an ordinary human who committed the sin of falling in love. She did nothing wrong, they murdered her in cold blood. My mother hid me, so I would not be found. I didn
Mr Barney is choking on his breath as he holds his neck tight. This is not him choking himself, it is someone with a higher power doing it. It is Amanda, she is punishing them for failing to kill Damon. She is very annoyed and disappointed, she wants to kill them but she feels it's not yet time for him to die. He's still going to be useful for so many other things. "Please...for...give me..." Mr Barney pleaded for his life in the hands of Amanda. It only made Amanda happy. "You deserve to die, I should punish you further and send you do hell!" She replied still choking him with her spells. "Please.... please..." He begged slowly losing his breath, she finally lets him go. Seeing he suffered enough, she thought that would be enough warning to not make a mistake again. He nodded quickly, "Yes my lady. I would never do anything like that." "I need to make Moore and his family pay for what they did to me in the past. Especially my sister. I must bring war to his Pack, but to do t
DONNIE'S POV I had a great time with him. I felt sleepy as we were in the car. I laid my head on his chest and shut my eyes inhaling his scent. His scent is so sweet that it is the only thing that makes me sane. A big bump makes me jerk up from my sweet sleep. I opened my eyes and saw our car stopped, the one in front with the bodyguards also stopped. So did the one behind us. What is going on? Are the roads blocked or what? I don't understand what is happening at all. I looked at Damon, he seemed to be observing something. I tried to follow his eyes, I suddenly got a strange vision of some men dressed as cops and others hiding in the bushes. Then I saw someone familiar that made my heart jump. "Donnie! DONNIE!" Damon jerked me hard, it brought me back to reality as I gasped hard for breath. "What's going on? What happened to you?" He asked looking worried. "Who are those people? What is going on there?" I asked him instead. "They are cops just doing t
Amanda did not know what to do. It seems her secret has been found out by the person she wanted to hide it from the most. She still has no idea how Lea found out. She was not stupid, she could read between the lines. She could see her emotions and what she felt. Her mind went blank as she thought of only one place. Not even Hale knows the whole truth about everything. That brings her to think about who it could be. Did Lea meet with her prisoner already? Come to think of it, Lea has been acting strange lately. "That stupid bitch!" Amanda exclaimed picking up a kitchen knife and made her way to her room. She got the keys and went to her sister's room. She barged in, as soon as she did, Amelia knew she was in trouble. Amelia moved back a bit to avoid the attack. But Amelia gladly wanted to die before now, she changed her mind. There could be a possibility that Amanda is using her child, she wants to live for them. "You idiot! I kept you alive and what did you do?
