Chloe’s POV. “Emmm…Alice…she is……” I couldn’t even fathom a proper explanation of who Alice was. Yes, I could say Alice is a good person, she took me in and took care of me like her own sister, from my view and the way she treats me she’s a good person. But how will I put in words to Alpha Jax? With the look of things, Alpha Jax and Alice are not on good terms, I know I shouldn’t lie about Alice. I should open up and tell Alpha Jax how good She is but what if he gets angry again? I just break unrequited news for him, if I say something that will annoy him again, I wonder how he would feel. “You don’t have to think through the whole world because of the question I ask you, if you don’t want to answer that then fine,” he said standing up from the bed and walking to his closet, he brought out a cloth and dropped it on the bed, I wonder what he was up too. “I’m coming,” he said and stormed into the bathroom. Did he have plans to go somewhere? This evening? Cause the clothes he put o
Liam’s POV. After two days of knowing who Chloe was staying with, we still couldn't get the proper location of where she stayed. Everything has now started getting out of my control, I received a call last night that Mendy had been missing for days and Her grandmother is also on the sick bed. I also got a call from the elder that I should return home, I need to go through some things in the city. The MayHill pack needs me now. I'm confused of the decision I have to step on. Should I stop searching for Chloe or go back home to sort things house? After going through thin and thick, going back home without Chloe looks like wasting of time and energy, the citizens will also point fingers at me as an incapable Alpha, using weeks to search for a single girl and I still couldn't locate her. It sounded so daft but same time, I had to return home especially when they said Mendy was missing. She has told me she's coming to search for me, I warned her not to come but not in a cool way. I k
Chloe’s POV. I open my hefty eyes, feeling the weight of confusion as they linger through the white room, a vast space that seemed to stretch endlessly. The room was devoid of any furniture, just me and the sound of my own breath echoing in the silence.Lying on the cold white ties, I shivered slightly, the chill seeping into my bones. Despite the urge to rest, a nagging question persisted in my mind, where exactly was I?Struggling to recall how I ended up in this unfamiliar place, I rose to my feet. My eyes darted around, desperately seeking any clue to my whereabouts. Each blink felt like a fleeting attempt to grasp a memory slipping through my fingers.Approaching the window, I gazed out at the pristine whiteness that enveloped the surroundings. The absence of a door in the room puzzled me. How had I entered this peculiar space with only a window as an exit?Anxiety crept in as questions swirled in my mind. How had I been brought here? Was there a way out? Who was behind this mys
Chloe’s POV I watched everything in terror, never expecting him to act so aggressively toward me. The Surrounding felt suffocating, the air heavy with tension. I knew it might be quiet out of it, hearing all this at once and explanations directed at me. If only I had known, I would've told Alpha Jax May's intentions toward me beforehand. But now everything has already burst, and I don't even know how or what I would say to make him believe me."Answer what Ryan asked you. Did you and she plan this? And why did you hide the Jade inside her room?" Alpha’s Jax voice dropped like a bombshell, the silence that followed deafening. If May truly continued with her explanation, Alpha Jax might actually believe her."Would you really believe what she said? I told you I'm not that close to Alice. She only helped me when I was in need; she never shared any of her secrets." I wept, tears blurring my vision as I tried to hold Aloha Jax's arms, but the dagger looks he threw at me nearly snatched pe
Chloe’s POV. Am I truly a betrayal? Do I really deserve all this? Am I not supposed to love Alpha Jax? Did I really do something bad? Questions mixed with my blood, more tears welling down my cheeks, my eyes glaring at the sky, beeping on the stars above. I wonder if Alice was a part of those stars in the sky. I wonder if she could see through me and understand I don’t plan on betraying her. I just don’t know when I started growing feelings for Alpha Jax and suddenly felt so attracted to him. I'm now addicted to his presence, I don't even think I can live without him by my side. But with everything that Alpha Jax heard tonight, would he ever give me a chance again to love him? Yes, he announced me as his Luna, but with everything, can I still stay in that position? Is it really possible for him to love me the way he did before? I just want him to understand my feelings and know that I’m not what May said. I don’t know how Alice knew about his sickness, let alone the way to cure it
Chloe’s POV. My body froze, and my eyes widened more than normal.i wanted to say something but I couldn’t find my voice. Ryan pushed me off him, and my body rolled on the floor. My ankles smacked into the stool, and a loud, painful groan escaped my mouth.I’ve another wound at the same part I did earlier."What are you two up to?" he asked as he walked into the room. Ryan got up and approached him.his gaze was Mainly on me,staring at me furiously. "Just having a drink," Ryan replied. Alpha Jax nodded, he glared at me one more time before turning abruptly and storming out of the room.I've upset him before, but now what? Will he even believe there's nothing between me and Ryan? I just create another mess. Ryan turned back to me, walked closer, helped me sit on the couch, and gave me an annoyed glare."What's gotten into you? You've only had one drink, and you're acting all crazy," he said, examining my injured ankles. He touched them, and a whimper escaped my lips.”you need to appl

Liam’s POV Today is the day, the day I planned to use Lia as bait to track Chloe down. I and my rogues have ditched our plan and I hope it's successful. Lia is the only way I can Step on to save Chloe on time and return back home. I locked eyes with Lia, glaring at her from head to toe, The chain she wore held a tracking match, even the hairband she used. With the tracking match, it would be easy to track her location without stress. my eyes scanned through the environment where Lia had led us, it was a quiet area. In the street, there stood a forgotten neighborhood, shrouded in shadows and whispers of the past. The three-story buildings loomed over the streets, their facades weathered and worn, telling tales of better days long gone. The ground floors, once bustling with life, now stood abandoned and crumbling, as if time itself had forgotten this place. The silence that enveloped the area was eerie, broken only by the occasional sound of footsteps echoing through the empty stre
Chloe’s POV The house was unusually quiet when Chloe returned. Normally, the laughter and chatter of her children greeted her at the door, but this time, only the faint rustle of maids working in the background broke the silence. She glanced at her phone as she stepped inside, hoping for a message from Liam, but her notifications were blank.Chloe inhaled deeply, forcing herself to relax. Liam will handle it, she reminded herself. He had promised to confront Mendy, and if there was one thing Liam excelled at, it was handling difficult situations. She pushed aside her worry and decided to make the most of the evening.“Mrs. Liam,” one of the maids greeted her with a polite smile, “would you like us to prepare anything for dinner?”Chloe shook her head, an idea forming in her mind. “No, I’ll take care of it tonight. I want to do something special.”The maid’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, but she didn’t protest. Chloe rarely took over in the kitchen, but tonight felt like the perf
Author’s POVMendy’s sharp eye was on Liam, his presence commanding attention. She felt the weight of her anger bubbling beneath her carefully composed exterior, but she masked it with a small smile. Her posture was relaxed, almost lazy, as if she had all the time in the world.Liam’s expression was the opposite—his jaw was clenched tight, and his fiery gaze was locked on her. Even without his Alpha aura pressing down on the room, his presence was intimidating enough. The principal, standing nearby, cleared his throat nervously.“Mr. Liam, perhaps we can—”“This doesn’t concern you,” Liam cut her off sharply, his tone cold but controlled. He turned his attention back to Mendy, his voice steady but laced with steel. “We need to talk. Alone.”The principal hesitated, but Mendy stepped forward, gesturing for him to leave. “It’s fine,” she said sweetly, her tone dripping with false politeness. “I can handle this. There’s no need to worry.” She added. The principal looked between them, he
Liam’s POV The house was eerily quiet when I stepped inside. Too quiet. I called out Chloe’s name, my voice echoing in the space. No answer. My eyes swept the living room, every corner tidy as usual, but something about the silence felt off. She hadn’t mentioned going anywhere.“Chloe?” I tried again, moving toward the kitchen. Nothing.My pulse quickened, an uneasy knot forming in my chest. I pulled out my phone and dialed her number for the third time, only to hear it ring faintly from somewhere upstairs. She wasn’t answering. I bolted up the stairs, following the sound to our bedroom, and found her phone on the nightstand, the screen lighting up with my name.“She left without it,” I muttered, running a hand through my hair.Panic began to creep in. Chloe wasn’t careless with her phone, and the thought of her being unreachable only amplified my worry. I sat on the edge of the bed, trying to think. She might have gone to her office. That seemed like the logical explanation.Without
Liam’s POV The meeting room was quiet, except for the sound of the projector humming as it displayed charts and statistics. My foreign clients sat stiffly across the table, their expressions grim. I could see the anger in their eyes, the way their eyes darted nervously. They were losing faith in me, and it was starting to show.“Your warehouses are no longer safe,” one of them said, breaking the silence. His voice was sharp, accusing. “It’s like someone knows every location. This isn’t just a coincidence, Mr. Liam. We’re being targeted.” He uttered with a greeted teeth. I leaned back in my chair, forcing a calm smile onto my face. “I understand your concerns,” I said evenly, though inside I was seething. “But I assure you, my team is handling the situation. We’ve reinforced security measures, and we’re monitoring all activities closely.” I tried to reassure them but their gaze was unyielding. “Are you sure that’s enough? This isn’t just bad luck,” one of them said, his voice cold.
Chloe’s POV The very next day, I found myself standing in front of the school, my kids clutching each of my hands. It was supposed to feel normal, dropping the kids off, and watching them run through the gates. But it didn’t. My chest tightened with each step closer to the entrance. Liam had reassured me endlessly last night, but no amount of comforting words could erase the lingering unease swirling in my mind.“Mommy, can we go now?” Aria tugged at my hand impatiently, breaking my train of thought.“Not yet, sweetheart,” I said, forcing a smile and crouching down to their level. “I need you both to promise me something. If anything feels wrong or someone says something that makes you uncomfortable, you tell your dad or come straight to me. Okay?”“Okay,” they chorused, although Asher gave me a skeptical look. He had her father’s no-nonsense expression, sharp for a six-year-old.I kissed their foreheads and sent them through the gates, my heart sinking further as they disappeared in
Chloe’s POV The first few days of Mendy’s presence at the school had been uneventful. It was almost as if she were trying to prove herself, and I couldn’t figure out why that bothered me so much. Whenever I went to drop the kids off, she would always smile to greet the kids, praising them for every little thing, acting like the perfect, doting teacher. But the way she looked at them, the way she got just a little too close, set my nerves on edge.It wasn’t even the way she treated them that bothered me. It was how my children were responding to her. Every day, it seemed, I’d hear them tell me how great Mendy was, how she helped them with this or that, how she made them feel so special. I tried to smile, to be supportive, but deep down, a jealousy I couldn’t control bubbled up inside me. I wanted them to see me that way. I wanted to be the one they ran to when they needed praise or affection.The worst part was how they’d grown so attached to her. They came home with stories about Men
Chloe’s POV The car engine hummed beneath me, but my thoughts were a constant, swirling storm. I couldn’t shake the image of Mendy’s face from my mind. Her too-sweet smile, her fake warmth toward my children—it was all wrong. Something about her felt off. I gripped the steering wheel harder, my fingers aching from the pressure. I needed to talk to Liam. I needed to hear his voice, to feel some semblance of calm, and also to inform him about Mendy. I pulled over to the side of the road, brought out my phone, and dialed his number.The phone rang twice before he picked up, his voice strained. “Chloe?”“Liam, I—” I stopped myself, trying to gather my thoughts. “I don’t know what to do. The principal introduced Mendy as the kids’ new teacher today. She’s been assigned to their class permanently. I can’t— I just can’t trust her with them.”I could hear Liam take a sharp breath on the other end of the line. He sounded tired and worn out, and I hated that. I hated that he had so much on
Chloe’s POV I couldn’t stop the guilt creeping up my spine as I marched into the principal’s office, demanding a transfer for Aria and Luis. The decision gnawed at me, a tiny voice whispering that I was letting my anger control me, but I shoved it aside. My children didn’t belong in a classroom with Mendy.“I understand your concerns, Mrs. Liam,” the principal said, her tone professional but edged with impatience. “However, I must remind you that we’re the top school in the city. Transferring them now would not only disrupt their education but limit their future opportunities.”I folded my arms, my frustration bubbling over. “And I understand that you think this is the best school, but you don’t understand the history I have with that woman. She’s not safe to be around my children.”The principal sighed, looking at me as if I were a stubborn child throwing a tantrum. “Mendy has done nothing to warrant such concerns. She’s been a model professional since she started here. I’ve reviewe
Chloe’s POV The moment the words left the principal’s mouth, I froze, every part of me stiffening like I’d been struck by lightning.“Yes,” she said, “She’ll be Aria and Luis’ teacher this year. We’re so lucky to have her, she’s been an absolute gem.”I blinked, sure I’d misheard. “I’m sorry,” I said slowly, my voice trembling with the effort to stay calm. “You’re saying Mendy is my children’s teacher? Or am I just mishearing?”“No you’re not mishearing,” the principal replied, beaming. “She graciously agreed to step in after the original teacher had an accident. We’re very fortunate to have someone so qualified and committed join us at such short notice.” She explained. I stared at her, my mind struggling to process the words. My heart began to race, panic rising in my chest. Mendy. Of all people. Why is this happening to me? “You’ve got to be joking,” I said, my voice sharper now.The principal frowned slightly, the warmth in her expression faltering. “I’m not joking, Mrs. Liam.
