JESSICA

I had to confirm if everything he had told me was true. I couldn't get it out of my head. Knowing that I have been experiencing all of that and there was no evidence of me screaming in the dark or trapped in my own dreams.

I knew Blake was always worried about me, but I didn't think he was going to forge everything just because he was trying to get my attention.

I knew Blake.

If he was speaking out like this, then something had actually gone wrong. I was still trying to get myself after the few attacks we had received. It was taking a toll trying to protect the pack as Luna.

It drew some kind of energy from me, and I wasn't ready to admit that, no matter how hard I tried. I toss my strength and the level of weakness to the back of my mind.

Now this?

What does this mean? How do I relate this to what my mate had experienced when I couldn't even remember anything of that sort? Was he lying? Does Blake have a hidden agenda? I tried to rephrase the statement in my head.

    BLAKEIt took a while before she could sleep. I tried to hold her in my arms for as long as I could, but she was pretty shaken up by the dream. I was relieved that she was able to remember something, but I didn't know how long she would be able to keep this up. Everything that had happened didn't have to lead up to this. Lead up to her having sleepless nights and shaken up by fear. For a moment I was sad that I had indulged her in what was happening to her. A little part of me regretted it, but at the same time, it gave me what I needed. Somehow, I knew this quietness and sudden peace the pack had wasn't ordinary. It was a plot for them to keep plotting against me. “I don't know what I'd do if something happened to you.” She muttered as she was beginning to sleep. “I don't want this dream if it only creates fear inside of me. I should be able to find a solution to stop Antonio once and for all.” The fear first came, and later came the blame she was enacting to herself. She was on

  • Alpha's Regret: Chasing My Rejected Mate   38~ How Did Antonio Know?

    JESSICA Blake muttered the phrase ‘she is alive’ several times. I had never seen him this disoriented. I tried to ask him but I decided to give him a few minutes to discern what I had just told him. I never knew this woman had a significance to his life. I didn't know what connection they had but I was more concerned about how it was affecting him. How he was affected.Everything slowed down, and it felt like I was stuck in between times, not knowing what to do. There hasn't been this kind of heavy silence hovering around us before. I tried to reach the bond but he wasn't having it. He has blocked his mind from me. “I do not like the fact that you guys are quiet and not telling me what's going on?” I became scared. If Blake was this quiet about a random woman, then it seals our fate when Antonio comes for us. I didn't know what else to do to reach him. Vanessa, who was the cheerful one, had drowned in her fair share of sorrow. It was almost like the pain was transferred onto me.

    BLAKE Nothing is more devastating than revealing the past that should have been kept asleep. I didn't think that part of my life was going to resurface. It was a day I wanted to forget. I knew I was going to speak about it, but I didn't think it was this soon with the woman whom I had loved now.I had not seen her this distraught, and she had been avoiding me. Lunch came and she missed it. Sitting in an empty dining room with just Vanessa and I. I tried to understand where she might be coming from but it only made me miss her more.I noticed Vanessa was staring at me. I knew what she was going to say. "I told ya, tell her sooner." Yeah, I should have but I knew something like this would happen. Maybe she did understand me, that doesn't mean Jessica would."Please, don't say it."She chuckled. "I wasn't going to say that, trust me." So I gave her a listening ear. “What I was going to say was, I think you just have to give her some time. I promise you she will come around.” I shook my

  • Alpha's Regret: Chasing My Rejected Mate   40~ His Regret

    BLAKE There was a certain sadness that enveloped me, watching her leave like that. Her last look at me before hopping into the car was a bit relieving that she wasn't offended with me but then... I tried to be at peace with the fact that I made the right decision in letting her go. She made the choice herself and I didn't think it was the right one. I didn't know why Antonio was an issue for all of us. There was always a way for him to rise from the fucking shadows. I tried to make sense of why he would want her in exchange for a war. Antonio wasn't the type of person to back out from any kind of war, if he wanted to inflict hell, there was always a way for him to make that happen. I didn't know if he was saying true to his words or if Jessica was the prize he needed to take. I hated myself even more just thinking of how stupid I had been in listening to her. I poured myself another drink. “That's your fifth glass and if care is not taken, you would be done with the whole bottle

    JESSICA As soon as I got to the pack, Antonio was hostile towards his staff as the guards dragged me into the lobby. Even with the quietness in the car, Antonio found a way to break every bit of peace I had by bragging how it was easy to take me from Blake. I had no words for him because it was true. It was quite easy, too easy that I didn't think his words might hold any weight for me as I spend most of my time in his pack. Deep down, I knew he was going to launch an attack, but first, giving him the benefit of the doubt was something I felt was needed. “Take her to the dungeons!” He yelled at the guard holding me in his grip. “What?!” I yelled in panic. “Remember, you promised.”“I didn't promise that you wouldn't be treated as my prisoner. You are under my fucking roof and I would treat you as I please. At least your so-called man comes running to his death.” he had this smug smile on his face as he taunted me with his threat. I shook my head. “I know you didn't promise me th

    JESSICA I scolded myself in my head. I should have kept her name out of my mouth but I couldn't help but wonder what kind of a lady she was, that she was seen around this cruel man who only knows how to spill blood as an answer to anything. “Have we met before?” She asked me but I knew my words were as sharp as iron if I kept letting her read me in my own game. Silence was far more reachable because it was a way to keep my thoughts to myself without them knowing my next move or the next words I wanted to say. I didn't want to expose the fact that I saw through dreams. She walked closer to me, looking me in the eye. I lowered my gaze. My cover was much more important than being tough. I wanted to have a conversation with her to know how dark her mind went. “I feel like I have seen you somewhere before.” I shook my head. The way her eyes went darker, it was clear she didn't buy it. I prayed to the heavens that she wouldn't recognize me. Deep down I knew how futile the prayer was.

    JESSICA I have never felt this much fear inside of me. I couldn't quite see why she was suddenly calm. She continued scanning me like she was trying to figure out something. I couldn't blame her at all. If I found out about someone this strangely, I would want to know what else was at play. It was in the same way, I was trying to figure her out. She had this familiar and off aura around her. I saw her as the opposite of me. I didn't know what else would make that work or what was at play but there was something sinister about her. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't come up with anything. Which made things worse. “I want to take her for a walk.” She casually told Antonio and walked ahead of me. He instructed the guards to release the chains on me. Antonio was confused and wanted to know more; his lack of trust was so evidently written in his eyes, but he couldn't act until he had sensed a cause of betrayal and pain..I joined her trails, and where we walked through the cobblesto

    JESSICA I tried to reason with her but she wasn't having it. She had been riding on a stronger conviction that Blake was only put to hurt her. To make sure that she had suffered for pursuing him like that even when he had a girlfriend. I didn't know how I was still solving the exes of my man cases. A part of me, deep down, wanted her to self-destruct, but I didn't know for how long I was going to live with the guilt. Even when I knew she was on the wrong side of justice, I felt for her. My heart was with her every moment she objected to what I had in mind. She acted not to be moved by what I had told her. She was dissociating herself from the whole truth. She wanted to justify her madness all these years.“You don't know what you are talking about. He hated me because of that girl. There was no way he could have broken up with her in such a short time.”“I will not lie to you. I am his mate, remember, and as such, I get to know exclusive details about him. That is what I am proving

    JESSICA Murmurs spread through the wolves and Lycans, and I could see some of Blake’s men lowering their stance, unsure of what to do next. Even Priscilla seemed uncertain now, and the Lycan King, though standing tall, yet he looked more cautious than he had before.“What do you want?” Raven asked. He wasn’t one to easily trust, and neither was I, but something about this figure made it hard to doubt its power.“To end this needless war,” the figure replied, its eyes now fixed on the Lycan King. “Your thirst for revenge has led you astray. And you, Blake, have let your past cloud your judgment.”Blake bristled at the words. I could feel the tension radiating off him, but he stayed silent, waiting for the figure to continue.“You all fight for reasons rooted in pain and loss,” the figure said, its gaze now on Priscilla, Antonio, and the rest of us. “But the moon does not favor endless violence. There must be balance.”I felt a sudden peace in me, but was tinged with fear. What would h

    JESSICAThe fight was chaotic, with an endless clash of fangs, claws, and blood all over the ground. Just when I thought we were gaining the upper hand, things seemed to have shifted a bit. I saw Priscilla step forward, her eyes locked on Blake. My stomach twisted. All I could see in her was revenge. Revenge. It had swallowed her whole.I couldn’t just stand by and watch. I had to do something.I ran toward Priscilla, trying to reach her through the bond we once had. I pushed my thoughts into her mind, pleading with her to stop. *Don’t do this, Priscilla. It doesn’t have to be this way.* But she didn’t even flinch. Her mind was closed off, her heart totally consumed by rage. She was too far gone.Before I knew it, I grabbed her arm, trying to pull her away, but that only made things worse. She jerked around, her eyes burned with fury. And then, out of nowhere, the Lycan King appeared, moving so fast that I barely saw him coming. He smacked me hard across the face, and everything went

    JESSICA The morning was quiet, but I could feel the tension in the air. Today was the day—the day of the war we had all been preparing for. Blake had met with Alpha Raven the day before, and they promised to fight with us. Not just Raven, but another wolf clan that was a close friend of his had joined in too. Seeing how determined they were gave me some comfort, even though the fear of what was to come still weighed heavily on me.Blake’s men were already gathered, standing at attention, waiting for his orders. I stood beside him, my heart racing, but I knew I had to stay strong. This was the moment Blake had promised me—fighting alongside him, just like he said we would.Beside him was Lyra, he had also made her the same promise. Even though she tried to play courageous with the smile on her face, I could tell she was shit scared like I was.Then the alarm went off. The knight watcher signaled that Antonio and the Lycan pack were on their way. My breath caught in my throat. This wa

    JESSICA The door creaked open behind me, and I didn’t need to turn to know who it was. Blake’s scent, that familiar mix of warmth and safety, wrapped around me as he stepped closer. “Jessica,” his voice was soft, yet I could feel the cling of sleep in his tone. “What’s wrong? You’re shaking.”I hadn’t even noticed my body trembling. I tried to pull myself together, but I knew he could sense it. He always could. I forced myself to look up at him, his eyes still sleepy but alert now, searching mine for answers."I'm fine." I lied. "I couldn't sleep anymore so I thought I should get some air. Besides, the guards are everywhere, you need not to worry. You should go back to sleep."He sighed, crossing his arms around his chest. "How am I supposed to go back to sleep when you're not on the bed?" I looked at him, and we both chuckled. "I can wait until you feel sleepy."That was one habit of Blake, he wasn't ready to give up on me no matter how minor or major the situation may be."It's re

    JESSICAI felt my heart sink after hearing what the spy had said. Antonio had made it so obvious after speaking to someone over the phone, his laughter filled the air so it was loud enough for the spy to have eavesdropped on him.It hurt me that it was at this point Priscilla was being silly and stubborn. I don't know what her master had done to her, but whatever it is, I wouldn't let her have her way. I don't care if it would cost my own life, I wouldn't sit and watch her hurt my man.I welcomed nature with the purpose of meeting Priscilla at least for the last time. I knew I was disobeying Blake's order not to meet her again since she had made up her mind. Somehow, I believe there could be a chance for hope.The dream was so vivid, so real that when I saw her, standing there in the distance, my stomach dropped. "Priscilla." That name tasted like poison on my tongue. She didn’t look surprised when I called her out, anger burning in my chest as I stormed toward her. "Priscilla!" I sh

    PRISCILLAIt was a week before Deluca finally came to a conclusion on the day to attack. Though it wasn't fixed yet, it was something he assumed to be. I was more than excited that I wouldn't have to wait any longer than I have. I didn’t see the need to attend Deluca’s meeting with his friends. We had already gone over every detail of the plan. Besides, the thought of sitting through hours of more discussion felt like a waste of time. So, I stayed back in my room, but as the night dragged on, I couldn’t deny how restless I was becoming. How long were they going to talk? It's been since morning, weren't they tired already? I can't even imagine myself sitting for hours, not to talk about talking for more than five hours over a particular conversation.I paced for a bit, trying to distract myself, but eventually ended up lying on my bed, waiting for Deluca to return. I kept glancing at the door, hoping to hear his footsteps. But he never came, and the heaviness of the day slowly lulle

  • Alpha's Regret: Chasing My Rejected Mate   55~ Who Is He?

    JESSICAI felt strange, this time it was a different feeling. I could tell Priscilla was happy, and in a good mood. I wouldn't say I didn't like it but... the happiness felt kinda strange."What's wrong?" Blake asked."I need to dream.""What?" Aria looked at me like I had gone crazy."Yes, I need to dream. I need to see Priscilla right now.""But it's still morning." She said, "I mean, you can't see her except if you both are sleeping, right?""Shit." I cursed under my breath. That was the fucking truth. If I need to speak to Priscilla, we both have to be asleep."Do you feel like she's in trouble or something?" Blake asked and I looked at him. How am I to answer him when I can't even tell my actual feelings right now."No. I can only feel her excitement right now." He raised an eyebrow like he wasn't expecting that answer from me."You should be happy." He added."Yes, I should. But this happiness comes with something different and I need to figure out what it is."I never knew how

    PRISCILLAWhat?!I mentally screamed and before I could know it, he had grabbed my lips into his. I felt my adrenaline rise in want, and I couldn't hold back the desire to kiss him back. As much as I wanted to fight him off, I found myself succumbing to his temptation.His hand moved to the back of my neck, pulling my face closer. While his other hand held my waist, causing our body to meet, my chest resting against his. And for some reason, I wished I wasn't this bursty.This man was all charming, and no matter how hard I tried to resist him, I just couldn't. I felt weak in his arms, and the way he touched me was way too strong than my resistance. And I can't do anything but give up trying."You know," He muttered between the kisses. "I love it when you fill your thoughts about me." I knew well, he was aware I was thinking so much about him. But him asking me minutes ago was like he was playing the innocent man who doesn't read everyone's mind."So, I'm gonna make every thought you t

    PRISCILLAIt was a hot morning. I couldn't believe the sun would shine this bright at such an hour of the day. I learned Antonio was paying Deluca a visit, I knew my anger would get a better hold of me so I decided to remain in my room for the rest of the day.I went to my wardrobe to search for something to wear. Or maybe, I can just take a drive outside to one of the eateries, rather than sharing the same air with an enemy. That was a perfect idea, and I was going to stick with it.I laid my clothes on the bed, and that was when Ivy, my maid, was showing up. Always late when needed. "Ma'am, your meal is ready." She walked in with my breakfast."Just drop it on the table." I said,She did so. "Anything else I can do for you?" She asked."No. I have everything done already." I walked into the bathroom. I just don't know how to get her changed to someone better. I have tried everything and yet she still seems dull to my liking.I heard the sound of the door closing, I let out a sigh b
