Zayden’s P.O.V.“Something really bad is going to happen soon!”It was for the third time in one sitting that Blitzer warned me of an unseen trouble. I gritted my teeth and scolded him inwardly. “What else is remaining, Blitzer? Shut your ominous mouth, or I’ll sew your mouth permanently.”When Carver gave me an invitation to the party, he specifically mentioned that it was his date night as Helena asked him out. Firstly, I thought of refusing politely, as Carver must be lying. Helena would never select a cheap show off like him. Her taste in men was unique, she always preferred simple and decent boys over playboys.But when he sent me a voice message, it broke the castle of my hopes. “Don’t you think marking me will also decrease your rank in your pack?”“What?”Helena had considered his offer of marking as a gesture of sincerity?This revelation alone was enough to depress my wolf, Blitzer howled in agony.“I also want to mark my Luna!”The misery of my wolf shattered
Helena’s P.O.V. No matter how many abduction scenes you have watched in different movies, the fright of facing being kidnapped in real life is impossible to explain in words. Human reactions, feelings of being surrounded by predators can only be felt, there’s no perfect explanation for this trauma. I hope you would have never got in the situation which was now challenging my survival! When that driver asked for my mobile, I remembered my self-defense and omega training sessions in the Moon Howlers Pack. Alpha Gladwin was considered enough to conduct those special classes for weak omegas like us. “Everyone should know how to survive in unfavorable conditions!” His motto was life savior, and I could easily snatch that revolver from the abductor’s hand. However, my little angels’ horrified gasps poured a bucket of cold water over my soul, killing my warrior spirit in a second. A whimper escaped from my mouth as I wrapped my arms around my kids. “Please don’t hurt us!” A teenager
Zayden’s P.O.V.The kidnappers demanded that money in cryptocurrency, so it was a dead end. The local police couldn’t help us with cyber-crimes, so I requested my Alpha friends for their best crypto experts and left this issue for them.I could spend well over fifty million dollars for my family, but their safety was a huge question even after paying this ransom. I got a second call after thirty minutes.“The first transaction should be twenty million dollars in the next hour. I have texted you the details.”We started the quest and had only one hour to search that endless forest. Thanks to my bad luck, it started raining cats and dogs. My warriors, who were trying to track any trace of my family’s scent, became powerless like me, as the rain washed away all the clues which could lead towards them. Meanwhile, my leading warrior, Jay, informed me.“We need more manpower to cover the maximum area of this forest.This forest is full of rogues, avoiding useless fights is impossi
Trigger warning: sexual assault, physical violence, death..Helena’s P.O.V.Standing in a dark forest, my heart raced as I staggered back, staring up at the monster. Zayden’s black Alpha wolf was towering over me, his red eyes had a murderous glint in them. With my breath frozen in my lungs, I managed to turn and scurried away. In every step there was an earthquake, shaking the tree branches, and a few twigs in wet soil crackled below my feet. Running for life, there was only thought that went through my head,“I don’t want to die so soon!”Zayden’s throaty growls terrorized me to the core, every shred of my existence was screaming in horror. He was chasing me relentlessly.But all of a sudden, my mother’s angelic figure appeared before me, she grabbed my arm and shook it violently.“Helena, danger!”Obviously, that bloodthirsty Alpha was right behind me, he was the danger looming over my head. I tried to break free so that my feet could help me to reach a safe place, but in
Zayden’s P.O.V. (Flashback) Restricted in a massive silver cage, my body was chained with silver restraints. Three large injections of wolfs-bane didn’t knock me out, and I was still growling at those bloodsuckers. “I must admit that you’re a strong Alpha, Zayden.” The sly vampire king guffawed, mocking me at my helplessness. He ordered his minions, who tightened the grips of chains around me. “But you’re inexperienced, young lad, unaware of a war strategy.” He aimed another dart of wolfs-bane at me, Blitzer howled in agony. I struggled against the restraints while suppressing the urge to screech in pain. “We are noble werewolves, always advocating for truth and valor. This cheap trickery is beneath our status.” The Vampire King’s amused expressions fumed me, I thundered in fury. “Free me, and I’ll tell you how to win a war fair and square, you leech. Shame on you for using weak werewolves’ blood for your hidden agenda.” It was still unknown to me why he abducted me with the
Zayden’s P.O.V.“Mr. Anderson?”Wow!What a way to address that MF!My father, who was respected across the werewolf community for serving as the head of werewolf council for years, bowed before a puny lycan? And the one who kidnapped his daughter-in-law?Bloody hell!Alpha Gladwin’s atrocious behavior set me on fire, so I protested openly.“Why are you favoring my enemy, dad? He is the one who dared to hurt Helena!”My dad stretched his arm for a handshake and furrowed his brows.“Mr. Anderson and illegal work? You must be mistaken, my son.”Carver also reciprocated his respect and smiled; it pinched my heart with thousands of fire needles. Then he reminisced about the past; his voice was laced with memories.“If my memory is serving me right, we have met for the dispute of packs’ ownership after war. It’s a pleasure to meet you again, Alpha Gladwin. I didn’t know that Zayden is your son.”My dad’s face boomed with glee; he introduced me proudly.“You are right, Mr. Anderson. Our wer
Helena’s P.O.V.“When will mommy wake up, brother?”“She is sick, Uncle Liam’s medicine will heal her soon.”“I want to go home, brother.”Firstly, I thought that my mind was playing tricks on me as these hushed whispers slithered into my ears, then they became clearer with every passing moment.My eyelids were glued, it was so difficult to open my eyes, but the worry trailing those concerned words clenched my heart. I opened my eyes and blinked repeatedly to adjust with the brightness of the light, two pairs of small arms circled my body gleefully.“Mommy, you are up!”“Ashton, Scarlett? My little angels?”The happiness of their voice made me forget everything. I didn’t even question how I reached this hospital room and grabbed their tiny hands.“Are you alright? Did you eat and sleep well?”Ashton feigned to be the responsible man of our house and reported to me,“Uncle Alex took us to the cafeteria, and we ate sandwiches with milkshakes. Don’t worry, you need rest.”Scarlett, on th
Helena’s P.O.V.“This is pink clouding, Helena. You are not understanding my point here.”The psychiatrist, Dr. Julia, was convincing me from the previous hour, disregarding my rapid recovery completely.“You’ll need time to fully shake off this feeling of uncertainty. Take my advice and apply for leave from your workplace.”I rolled my eyes at her; she wasn’t aware of my past life. That was the reason for her blissful ignorance.“I am a married woman, mother of two kids. Physical relationships are not new for me, save your talk for young, innocent girls.”Dr. Julia smiled at my confidence, she grabbed my hand and assured me.“What about taking it as a holiday with your kids? I can see they are disturbed after this incident. I am writing a prescription and some tips, feel free to contact me any time.”Although I was taking her advice as a joke, the next few days proved me terribly wrong. After getting discharged from the hospital, I locked myself in my apartment, unable to face the bu
