For some reason, my heart felt stiff and I found it very hard to breathe all of a sudden. His gaze was icy and it belittled me even more.

"Are the servants in this household so unruly?" His voice harsh as he spoke. I should apologize and leave but I couldn't bring myself to do it, I couldn't even speak or move my feet.

"We are sorry, I apologise." Gina said from behind me as she grabbed my hands and pulled me to the side.

"Apologize now!" She whispered to me.

"I am sorry." I managed to utter. He gave me a condescending look before going his way. He moved fluidly as the guest gave way for him. He was certainly a man that commanded respect. I was too busy staring at him that I didn't notice Archie and his Mate, Ethel Lane walk past me. Or maybe I just didn't care.

"Are you okay Iris?" Gina asked concerned.

"I'm fine, I just.." I struggled to say.

"It's okay, just get some rest." She advised and I nodded. It's not like I could just go ahead and rest anyway, I still needed to serve Miss E

    I followed Ethel through the winding corridors of the grand estate, my mind racing with curiosity. What could Ethel Lane want to discuss with me in private? We have nothing to do with each other.As we walked, the sounds of the ball grew fainter, replaced by the soft rustling of Ethel's gown and the creaking of the old wooden floorboards. We eventually arrived at a small, secluded garden, surrounded by tall hedges and filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers at the edge of the Troy mansion.Ethel stopped beneath a willow tree, its branches swaying gently in the breeze. She turned to me, her expression neutral."Iris, I wanted to speak with you about my husband, Archie. I am sure you are very familiar with him," Ethel began, her voice gentle but firm. "I know he still has feelings for you, and I understand why. You were his first love, after all."Feelings? What feelings? He must be very stupid and those feelings can rot with him for all I care."But I must ask you, Iris, to sta

    I walked away confused but still happy. At least I had been relieved for the night since Pack master had excused me himself. Some of the girls were still busy while some had gone back to rest. I definitely couldn't just go back to my room as I still had to be around until Eleanor was ready to retire to her quarters since it was my job to serve her anyway."Iris!" Anne called me as she took sight of me. She ran towards me."Hey Anne, I haven't seen you all day." I said to her and she began her usual sobbing."I don't want to be a kitchen lady anymore," she whined. " My arms hurt from kneading dough all morning. I didn't even get to see the inside of the ballroom and all the handsome guests. I feel so wronged." She sobbed harder and I patted her head. I can't even tell if she was upset about cooking all day or because she didn't get to see handsome men. Probably the later."There weren't that much handsome men so you didn't miss much." I tried to console her."Lair! I saw a few come out

    His fingers brushed softly against my lips as he tilted my head upwards. I could feel his warm breath on my skin as he drew close and placed his lips on mine. I didn't struggle, neither did I reject his kiss, because I wanted it as much as he did. Now, at this moment, all I could think about was him and I, in this very moment, sharing our breaths so passionately.His hands reached for my waist as he slowly pulled my body closer to his, I instinctively wrapped my hands across his broad shoulders as I deepened the kiss. His tongue softly glazing mine as we shared saliva. It was a soft alluring kiss and being in his arms like this made me completely forget how utterly wrong this was. But my brain was numb, numb to any form of reasoning as I pressed my body against his in an attempt to close any little space between us.His tongue explored my mouth, and I sucked his whenever I had the chance, he kissed my lips softly as his hands moved lower and grabbed my ass. I moaned softly into his mo

    I had been excused so I should probably go back to my room. I couldn't still believe that I had dared to do such a thing. I grazed my lips softly with my fingers as I recalled Leigh's soft tender lips on mine. The feeling was electric, like shockwaves passed through my veins. I shook my head as I tried to collect my thoughts. I should probably go now before I lose my mind. As I raised up my head, I was met with Luka Lanes gaze. He seemed like he has been watching me for a while. When I caught his gaze, he looked away."Weird!" I muttered to myself. I didn't have the time to worry about that creepy old man at the moment, I had real problems."That Luka Lane is really something, isn't he?" Gina popped out from nowhere and it gave me quite a fright."Geez Gina, where do you keep popping out from?" I said trying to get myself together but she just shrugged. She stared at me and moved close as she touched my eye brows."See how kneaded your brows are," she said as she arranged them."Don't

    ~ Leigh's POV ~"Ugh, why won't it just stop?!" I grumbled as my alarm clock shrieked in my ear, piercing through my sleep-addled brain. I groggily reached over to silence it, but instead of turning it off, I tossed it to the other side of the bed. The ringing continued, taunting me. I was too tired for this.I grumbled, throwing off the covers and getting out of bed. I made my way to the clock and slapped the snooze button."Blissful silence!" I heaved a breath of relief. I should probably start getting ready for the task ahead. Today was the ball and I was in charge of everything, so I needed to be up early and arrange for all the necessary things and ensure everything is in place. But as I turned to head to the bathroom, I caught sight of my bed, my gaze fell upon the rumpled sheets and inviting pillows."Just five more minutes..." I told myself, crawling back into bed and snuggling under the warm covers."This was nice..." I muttered. I closed my eyes, feeling the softness envelop

    He scoffed at my words and pulled my hands off his collar."You are still a child Leigh. Still hung up over a prank I played on you while we were kids." He said without a hint of remorse."Only someone sick in the head will call that a mere prank. You almost got me fucking killed you bastard!" I cussed."But did you die?" He shot back and I was amazed by his shamelessness.Back when we were kids, I had no friends and the only other child I knew was Chad. He was my brother and I wanted to be close to him. Even when my mother forbade me from being close to him, or when I saw how his mother was treated with love and respect, whereas my mother was disrespected and left at the side like a piece of garbage, I still wanted to be close to him.He was loved by father and I was ignored. I had thought that if my brother loved and played with me, then the love of my father would rub off on me.But my brother hated me. He despised my very existence but no one knew. In the open, he was nice, but se

    I huddled behind the fern, my body trembling with cold and exhaustion. The rain had mercilessly pounded me, leaving me weak and shivering. The dark clouds above seemed to be closing in, making me wonder if I would ever be found. But still, I held on to hope. Hope that Chad would come for me soon.My eyelids drooped, heavy with fatigue, but I forced them open, scanning the surroundings for any sign of rescue. And then, I heard it, the distant sound of voices calling out my name."Leigh, where are you?" The voice echoed through the woods, growing louder with each passing moment.With a surge of adrenaline, I summoned what little strength I had left."Over here!" I croaked, my voice barely audible.The rustling of leaves and snapping of twigs signaled their approach. I strained my eyes, trying to see through the veil of rain. And then, a figure emerged from the gloom.But it wasn't Chad. It was Miss Felice, her face etched with worry and concern."Leigh, my dear boy!" she exclaimed, rush

    "You should really learn to control your emotions," Nicolas nudged my ankle. I hissed as I nodded."Get back to work." I ordered the guards who were still staring at me. I was really irritated right now. That bastard Chad just came to spoil my day."Leigh!" Miss Felice called out to me and I fixed my face immediately."Yes?" I turned to face her."My dear boy, everything is in place for the ball, the servants are already at work." she informed. "Do you have any other orders?""None for now. Thank you." I smiled and she patted my head softly.I went ahead to check if everything was perfect and ready. Father had called me yesterday and talked about how he wanted everything to be perfect. This ball was my idea so I really didn't appreciate him meddling."Ahh! Watch it." One of the guards yelled and it caught my attention. I walked over to see two guards arguing."What's the matter?" I asked him."He's being unreasonable. He hit me with the stuff he's carrying and won't apologize." The fi

    ~ Iris POV ~Three years had passed since the blood and chaos of that night in Luka’s mansion, three years since I had looked into the cold, dead eyes of Luka Lane. In those three years, Leigh and I had built a life together, a sanctuary away from the shadows of the past. Our own mansion was where we lived now, far away from the main Troy mansion. Two years ago, under the glow of the full moon, we had finally become one, our souls bound together in a love forged in fire and tempered by time. He had made me his mate and we were blessed by the moon goddess. Leigh had sworn not to return to the old Troy mansion until the old Alpha breathed his last and he had kept to his words, it was a heart breaking but necessary severing of ties. We had found our own happiness, clinging to each other as we navigated our own future together.Today also, was a day for celebration. Nicolas and Clarisse were finally tying the knot. The air in our bedroom was thick with the pleasant chaos of getting rea

    ~ Leigh’s POV ~My lungs burned, each ragged breath shot pain through my entire body. But I knew I had to forget this pain I was feeling, I knew the ceremony was fast approaching, and Travis was unreachable this whole time too so we did not know whether he had arrived Lane’s pack or not. There was no time. No time to rest, no time to fully heal. Iris was in danger and I must save her.Every fibre of my being screamed at me to move faster, to bridge the impossible distance that separated us. Every mile felt like a lifetime, every rustle of leaves a potential delay. Clarisse was so worried. “I can’t reach Travis… we don’t know if he made it.” She said on the way. Nicolas’s updated us not too long after. “Travis just called… they encountered heavy resistance. It is clear that Luka anticipated them.” I clenched my jaw. That bastard. He is indeed an old weasel. “No matter what,” I snarled, “we break through and defeat him. We have to.”And we did. The fight was brutal. When we arrive

    What I felt inside wasn’t just a power. It was an understanding. An understanding that made me feel ancient, yet utterly present, as if the moon goddess and I were two halves of a perfect whole. My vision were sharpened, and I could see everything. Every sin, every judgement. Every weakness and strength. I could see it all. With a roar that echoed through the hall, I launched myself at Luka, and flinged him far, sending him crashing against the wall. He hadn’t even fully regained his footing before I slammed into him again, sending his hulking form sprawling again once more. My eyes, I could feel, burned with an otherworldly light, fixed on Luka with an intensity that made him flinch.“Your opponent is me, Luka Lane!” I stated, my voice resonating with a newfound authority, a power that was both mine and something far more greater.Luka snarled, pushing himself up, his grey fur bristling. “So, the little moonflower has finally found her thorns, huh! Too bad for little one, you shoul

    Travis’s strength was visibly slipping away but I could only watch. Each blow, each snarl, seemed to cost him more. Then, the unthinkable happened. Luka, with a brutal swiftness, plunged his massive claws deep into Travis’s chest. An agonizing shout ripped through the air, a sound that tore at my soul.Luka ripped his claws out, and Travis’s powerful wolf form faltered. He crashed to the ground, as a dark stain of blood spread rapidly under him. His gaze was filled with pain and exhaustion, flickered towards me. In his eyes, I saw a heart breaking message. “I’m tired. I tried.” That’s all I could see in his eyes. He was tired and I was powerless. Tears streamed down my face, blurring the horrific scene before me.Luka with his eyes gleaming with a cruel triumph, loomed over Travis. “Insect!” he sneered as he opened his massive jaws, ready to deliver the killing blow, aiming for Travis’s throat.“NO!” The shriek tore from my own throat, it was a desperate shout, hoping it could somehow

    “What was that sound?” Archie demanded of the guards turned towards the door.They all looked confused as their eyes darted nervously around “We… do not know Alpha,” one stammered, “but it sounds… it sounds like someone is blowing the place up.”My heart leaped into my throat. Could it be? Could it possibly be him? A flicker of desperate hope ignited in me, chasing away the fear in my heart. Leigh was here. It had to be Leigh. He wouldn’t let them keep me here.Archie’s jaw tightened, his gaze locking onto mine, then a cruel smirk twisted on his lips. “Keep her contained,” he snarled at the servants who stood. “Do not let her escape. I will go and see what this… disturbance… is.” He shot me one last venomous look before turning and striding out of the room, the guards hurrying after him.My mind was a whirlwind of possibilities. Explosions? Fighting? It had to be Leigh. My eyes felt hot with unshed tears of relief and anticipation. He was here. He was really here to save me.“Come my

    Sleep. That word felt foreign. After what I had heard from Ethel, how could I possibly fall asleep. The locked door was a solid testament to my captivity, and the high, narrow window offered no solace at all or a route of escape. I was trapped, and those guards were outside watching. I paced back and forth in the confines of the room. My mind was running like a hamster on a wheel with no way to stop. As I turned sharply, my foot caught on the edge of the bed, sending me sprawling on the ground hard. The back of my head slammed against the marble floor, as a sharp blinding pain shot through me. A loud groan escaped my lips, and for a dizzying moment, darkness threatened to take me again. But then, as the pain subsided, a torrent of memories, sharp and vivid, began to flood my consciousness wildly. The fragmented dreams, the unsettling whispers, the faces I couldn’t quite grasp, they all snapped into place with startling clarity. I could remember everything all of a sudden. I wasn’t

    This was supposed to be my escape, but it wasn’t anymore as there were about two dozens of imposing figures, their faces grim and unyielding, lined in the corridor, their presence suffocating the last grasp of hope Ethel had built in me. And Luka Lane just stood there watching us, his very stillness radiating an icy authority. His grey eyes were as sharp as shards of glass.Ethel, who had moments ago been very courageous was now visibly trembling beside me. Her breath hitched in her throat and her hand clutched my own tightly, her fingers digging into my skin. Luka’s lips peeled back into a slow, cruel sneer. “Well, well, well,” he drawled, his voice a violent threat that sent shivers and sweat running down my temples. “I guess you are playing hide and seek in the dead of night, my little runaway? And you, Ethel? Playing accomplice are you?” he sneered.Ethel’s voice, when she finally managed to speak, was full of tremor. “Father… we were just… she wasn’t feeling well. I was only ta

    ~ Iris POV ~From the moment I woke up, I felt uneasy. It was like there was something pressing against my chest. It was because I knew tomorrow was fast approaching. Tomorrow was the day I was supposed to become Luka Lane’s mate. The thought felt like air was being sucked out of my lungs. This morning, my gown had also arrived and I was made to come test it out. It was truly beautiful and a perfect fit. Perfect for my discomfort actually, because there is no way I would be happy wearing that knowing who my groom is.I got confined to my room afterwards, under the guise of pre wedding pampering, felt more like imprisonment, like they have been doing since I got here. On the brief walk back from the gown testing room, I saw how everyone was busy with activity. Servants scurried with floral arrangements, and trying to get things arranged. I sighed heavily as I jumped on my bed with a thud. My gaze drifted to the window, and I yearned to feel the cool night air on my face, to run until

    “Nicolas,” I repeated, my voice rough, “What happened to Iris?” The silence that followed stretched longer than I thought necessary. It was so thick and suffocating, and this silence just seemed to amplify the frantic thumping of my heart.Nicolas shifted his weight uncomfortably, his gaze fixed on the hard cold floor. He finally sighed, a sound heavy with reluctance. “Leigh please. You need to focus on getting better. This isn’t something you should be worrying about right now.” He tried to reason. It was not a reasonable thing for him to say though. At least to me.I hissed harshly. The dismissive tone ignited a spark of fury within me, overriding the weakness that still clung to my limbs. I pushed myself up against the pillows, the sudden movement causing a sharp tug on the IV drip in my wrist, sending a jolt of pain through my arm and to my brain. “I cannot relax Nicolas! Iris is out there, in Luka Lane’s clutches. What do you think he wants with her? It’s not a good thing obvious
