SCOTT POV

I slept late last night after having a terrible day at work, only to be woken up by the tears of my grandmother. The sniff of her nose and her uncontrollable tears made me roll on the bed. I stayed on my bed for some minutes before thinking of heading downstairs, thinking that her sound of tears and wails would have stopped.

The sun was still lost in its own dreams when I was abruptly ripped from mine. The symphony of my grandmother's tears echoed through the silent house, a heartbreaking melody that pierced through the veil of my dreams. I groaned, my eyes heavy with fatigue, but the sound persisted, refusing to be ignored.

“If only Chloe was around and hadn’t taken the foolish step of leaving our pack just because she caught the man she once loved sleeping with her elder sister. I know it hurts, but leaving our pack just because of that minor issue makes no sense,especially when she didn’t inform me or speak to anyone about it before leaving the pack. Now I have to deal wi

    CHLOE’S POVI woke up to find out that I didn't wake up in the same woods I slept in, despite spending the night outside in the cold weather. At first, the disorientation was so overwhelming that I questioned if I was still dreaming. The transition from the biting chill of the night to the mysterious warmth enveloping me left me in a state of confusion.I tried to wash away the remnants of sleep. I squinted through the dimly lit room. The air was thick with the fragrance of burning incense, a scent that danced around me and seemed to carry a hint of ancient magic. I noticed I was no longer on the hard ground but on a soft mat laid out in a corner of a dark hut. Wooden walls surrounded me, adorned with intricate carvings that seemed to tell stories of times long past.As I pushed myself up, the mat seemed to protest, whispering tales of dreams woven into its fibers. I looked around, taking in the unfamiliar surroundings. The hut was small but cozy, and the soft glow of the incense burn

    CHLOE’S POV“What! That’s so terrible! I exclaimed as I watched her break down in tears as she shared with me her family story.“That’s the major reason I don't like talking about my family. Most times, people think I'm the one framing up the story, but that’s just the hard truth. They didn’t abide by the rules in the woods, and all of them got killed, and I'm the only living one out of my family. So, when I tell you to be careful in the woods, you just have to abide by it.” She spoke as she warned me intensively.“I don’t know the right words to say to you, but I strongly believe that you are a strong person, and I can't wait for you to take revenge on those who killed your family.”“That was the same reason I rescued you from them last night. They wanted to devour you and make you their last supper meal, but I rescued you.”The revelation sent shivers down my spine, and I couldn't help but replay the events of the previous night in my mind. Unaware of the imminent danger, I had narr

    CHLOE’S POV“Abigail,what are you doing? Who exactly are you?” Fear gripped me as I asked her certain questions while watching her play with blood and reciting certain chants.“You don’t have to be scared, Chloe. This is just like my daily rituals; besides, I thought you should still be asleep by now. So, why are you up?” She spoke without looking remorseful or scared about what I said to her.“Really? Are you the one asking me this question? How do you expect me to sleep when I'm not comfortable seeing you play with blood?”As she got to hear the last line of my question, her eyes turned red, and immediately she kept moving forward to me as she continued reciting the chants and moving her hands in a funny way.“Don’t come close to me,Abigail. Stay very far away from me. I don’t want to do anything that will make both of us regret our actions.” I said to her while pointing my finger at her as I raced backwards.It seems like the more I'm moving backwards, the faster she is coming towa

How dare you come into this apartment and act as if everything is alright?” I questioned her while trying to sound defensive.“You didn’t even welcome me by telling me to come inside. You just stood there as I stood outside, bombarding me with unnecessary questions. Is that how you welcome your guests into your home?”I laughed out loud while watching her spit out guts from her mouth.“Who told you that you were welcome here,Mendy? Is it after you betrayed your little sister or after you betrayed Grandma Trust? Wait for a second! Who told you that you are even a part of this family?” I spoke to her in a rude tone. without being scared that she was my older sister.“Do I actually need anyone’s validation before I enter my father’s house? Do you think I came to banter words with you, weakling?” She spoke as she gave me a scornful look with no iota of pity.I clenched my fists, feeling the surge of anger coursing through me.

    CHLOE'S POV:“What do you want from us, mister stranger?” I spoke as the two men came into the hut where I and Abigail stayed and stared at us before focusing more on Abigail.“I guess you must have missed the road, and this place isn't the right place for you to be. This place isn't a path to follow; this is my little home." Abigail spoke up while looking at the two men staring at her with no iota of fear in her voice.The two men, who were clothed in black attire that covered their heads until their toes, exchanged glances, a silent communication passing between them. It was unnerving the way they synchronized without uttering a single word.As they approached Abigail, their movements were calculated, and I could sense an ominous energy surrounding them.Without warning, they reached Abigail and seized her hands, their grip firm. I tensed, ready to intervene, but Abigail remained surprisingly composed. "Release me," she commanded, her tone unwavering.The strangers ignored her deman

I searched the backyard to check if she was in there,but to my utmost surprise, she wasn’t there at all.I kept searching every corner of the house to check if she dropped any letters at all before heading outside of the house. I searched carefully without any limiting factor weighing me down."I hope she hasn't gone to attack Chloe. I hope she isn’t planning to do anything dangerous that could tarnish my image in the pack." I spoke to my inner child as I flooded my mind with different thoughts.I pushed the door of my sitting room open and went to go make coffee to start my day properly before I heard footsteps coming from the end of the door. I turned and saw Mendy with some luggage on her back and on her hand. From the look of things, she looked very distressed and palpable as she stood at the entrance of the door.I dropped the glass cup of coffee I had in my hands

It was unbelievable to see an innocent witch go extinct just because of one's useless culture and traditions.He walks up to me and squats right before my sight as he watches me mourn over my friend, whom I just lost.“This isn't the end of you; you just have to brace up and get over everything. Besides, you have a long way to go, starting from now on." He spoke without any guilt in his voice.With the way he spoke, someone would have thought that he was a saint in this scene. He didn't even feel remorseful for a second, not to mention an iota of anguish in his voice.“What else do you want from me? Do you want to kill me

I replied with a shaky voice while trying to hide my face from his.“Then! Pack your things, that is, if you bought anything for my pack.” He ordered with a fierce voice.Without any hesitation, I followed his lead and went into his packs. As I entered, almost everyone was murmuring with their fellow mates and their fellow people in the packs, wondering who I was.“Who is she? What exactly is she doing in this pack?” One of the wolves spoke in a lower tone as she looked at me with a disgusted look.“What if she is the one betrothed to Alpha Jax? Or, what if she wants to come and snatch our one and only handsome Alpha Jax away from us?” Another one spoke, as she was scared of losing her crush to another woman.Ignoring the speculative glances and whispers, I focused on the task at hand—packing my belongings.

My heart skipped a bit that the revelation because this was completely beyond what I was expecting in any shape or form. My eyes were focused on what was more necessary than just waiting for answers My wolf package hard time believe it that it was probably just poison. It's substance was not mentioned and that was a huge red flag on its own. Someone had to explain to me in layman's term why the autopsy results didn't reveal anything favorable. There were a lot of things to think about but one of the things that stood out for me was the way the scientist switched carefully while staring at me. This was an explanation that could not be done without and I was expecting more. Scott glanced at me as though we shared the same sentence and he coughed. "Whatever way I know that we still need to talk." He said. The living room was plunged into greater silence as we waited for the answers to be m

    Chapter 64. Chloe's POV.Awaiting the autopsy was not even a great idea. All that Chloe thought about was to make her father get the justice he deserved. The insane amount of mishaps that had come into her life the past few days was not to be reckoned with, and she felt like there had to be a means of tackling this without feeling weak or weary from any angle. Her kids didn't even think that their actions had a long-lasting impact.She picked up my phone to call Scott, "what is happening." Liam was less concerned with what was happening, so she needed to get my answers myself. "I don't want you to think so much about everything that has been going on because it's not going to help either of us, but there is only one way that we can achieve our goals, which is by waiting for the result. Then I would know what to do." Scott said. Chloe didn't understand why he was wasting so much time confronting their sister when it was almost getting clear that her father had been murdered, prob

    Chapter 63. Chloe's POV I was on my way to my father's room when I stopped halfway, taking a giant sneeze; I found out that the youngest for them wasn't something even important at all. Instead, it was only her next move. Evil when she's poked against, she's poked against close powerful. I could see the way things began to drum in a sarcastic manner. I believed that everything was going to work out for good, but at the same time, I needed to be as careful as I should. I stopped in front of his room and contemplated how my next statement was going to affect him. I needed new people to understand the mood of the population and abide by it, not those who are ready to change me at every cost. Without him clamoring to have some sort of land or power to himself it's made everyone appear in their natural state just to make it very relatable. "I have always had problems with you because of how decided to represent everything that you are and own." I heard someone's voice ringing

She was the only person that I trusted too much to call me about what was happening. As soon as I headed into the room, I didn't understand what was going on at first but decided to take a deep breath just to see what was happening. I pushed the door open and so Aria hooked up with different drips running through her veins, looking pale. My heart skipped a bit as I rushed her to her side. Ignoring Liam, who was sitting beside her and looking at me as though I was the devil spawn, I looked at her and back at him. "What happened to her?" "You went away for so long and appeared out of nowhere to ask what happened to her. How interesting!" I shut my eyes in shock. This was absolutely not what I was looking for. I needed something very important, such as a damn reason why this was happening. "Apparently I think that you didn't he

My dad sat on the chair in front of me watching carefully, as I progressed towards where he was sitting and also looking carefully. "You are unhappy. I can feel it. Why is that?" I knew that if I opened my mouth to start speaking immediately I would burst into tears, uncontrollable ones at that. My eyes welled up with tears but I realized that for me to continue this way it was going to make me look even more weak. "I wanted to report certain things to you. I need you to call Mendy. She has been getting on my nerves for so long now and I would appreciate it if you called her to order. She isn't a lost cause yet until we agree that she is not worth it." I said, hoping that she had not come here to report before I did and render my testimony invalid. Gazing at me intently, my father finally spoke, "if she ha

He should be able to find answers for yours because that's the only way I would be free to do what I have in mind." Lia said, Without further ado, I headed to his office and realized that he was a little bit busier than I thought so I waited a bit."Hey! Is anything the matter?" He asked, a bit anxious just to find out why I had decided to call on him. 'I need to tell you something very important and I hope that we should be able to rub minds together. I have pondered on this for so long and still have not come up with an answer that is suitable." I started. His eyes widened slightly, looking at me for a minute. "May I know the reason for this discussion?" He asked while scanning the environment, his heart pumping visibly underneath his tight shirt. I had a lot of reservations when it came to opening up to people but I knew he was someone that I could trust and wou

She could almost feel the taste of bitterness on my sister's lips as she bade the kids goodbye. Having no choice but to dance to her tune she watched happily. This was everything and more of what she wanted in her entire life and nothing was going to stop her from achieving everything that she should. Things were getting out of hand and it was only imperative that she found a means of nipping it in the bud. "Hi, how are you guys doing today?" She asked the kids as soon as they entered the class. Their mother had no right to come and confront her and that was her only saving grace. "Good morning, Miss Mendy, we missed you last night. My mom didn't allow us to come, she asked that we stay with her even though our dad didn't like it."Mendy heaved a sigh of relief, thinking about how great it would be if she was their mother.

"What's a great way of telling your friend that you have seen for a long time that you miss her," I responded sarcastically hoping that she kept her opinion still herself because they were not necessary at this point. "Yeah, right... I wanted to come knock some senses into you because you sound like you've been losing it for a while now." She whispered, inching towards me with a smile on her face. "I knew you, and I know that you have not been yourself for a very long time. It is my duty to come here and find out how I can be of help to you." I was a bit embarrassed but thankful that I had someone coming to check up on me, and I smiled. "I'm pretty sure that someone must have tipped you off." "Yeah, I'd be lying if I said someone didn't but that doesn't still change the fact that I might just have to be here to help you out with the situation." She was say

This was utterly preposterous because I couldn't even wrap my head around the fact that my daughter would turn against me so much and make me feel like a total failure!… "Who told you that trash?" I demanded from her. I wasn't going to allow her to get away with insulting me while I looked at her, hoping that she came to the knowledge of what was right. She had been influenced by someone, but it was my duty to find out who exactly. "That is not something you should be saying to your mother, especially when I have never done anything to warrant such replies and attitude for me, all of you!" I fired back at her. Her gaze rested on me but she didn't look remorseful. "Mommy I want to sleep for a while. We will be going over to her house later tonight so that she can prepare some more delicious meals like she promised for us." Aria said, walking away from me. If anyone had told me that things would degenerate to this point, I would have loved them to sc
