MIA:When I opened my eyes, the first person I saw in front of me was Elena. "Mia. Are you alright? Can you see me?"I groaned, trying to sit up right so I could feel comfortable, but Elena came towards me and tried to help me. "Stay away from me, Elena, let me go." I yelled back at her, pulling my arm away from her grip.I was able to sit upright on my own, but I was still a little bit weak. Funny how I had passed out after what happened few hours ago with dad. I rose to my feet, and even though I felt dizzy, I just wanted to be out of here, to he somewhere far from Elena because seeing her face made my stomach churn in irritation. My hatred for her had grown to the level that I felt like I could pick up a knife and stab her in the heart multiple times."Mia, please, let's talk. I'm sorry okay, I'm really sorry. I had no idea that all this would happen."I ended up scoffing out loud at her words because I knew she was spilling out absolute nonsense. "I'm very much ashamed of you Ele

MIA:I regretted nothing of what I had earlier said to Elena. I didn't care if it would make her suspect me in the end, but she fucking needed to get a piece of my mind. She was the lucky bitch who always acted like the angel, while I was the unlucky one who to my father was pretty much worse than the devil herself.I halted my car in front of Jackson's house and stepped out of it. It was time to finally agree to whatever Jackson idea was. I must have been so stupid not to have agreed the first time. Right now, Jackson's idea was the last option at the moment, and even though it would manage to tarnish my image, I had no other options, but to agree to it also as Elena would be out of the way once and for all, and after that, I would work harder to set things straight to how they were.As I approached Jackson's door, I received a call from a familiar number, and before I picked it up, I walked out of the house and headed for my car."Hey.""The Thompson family made a move again.""Wher
ELENA:The day was finally here!The day I would walk down the aisle with Damian by my side, and the day I would become his wife, finally giving up on the mate bond that connected Alessandro and I.Deep down in my heart maybe I wasn't ready for a day like this, but I still wanted this to happen because I knew that was the only way things would return to normal.The car halted right in front of the hall, and the door was opened for me to step in. Part of this day had to be the worse because Mia wasn't here with me, and she would never be after what had happened between us.Since my dress was rather very simple, I could walk on my own without being assisted by anyone. That was what I did, I began to walk on my own, and when I got to the entrance of the hall, my dad was waiting for me. He outstretched one of his hands towards me, and I took it without sparing him a glance. I was still so very angry after what happened with Mia yesterday, and as we walked into the hall together, my dad wh
ALESSANDRO:"Elena's getting married today? Why the hell am I knowing this just now? It was damn next week." I yelled at Liam who flinched in fear as he took a few steps backwards from me.I rose to my feet, "Let's go Liam, you're driving." I could hear his footsteps trail behind me as I walked out of my office and began heading to the garage where the car was parked. As soon as I got in, Liam also got in and ignited the engine. In no time, he drove out of the premise immediately. Since Liam knew the way to the hall, our lucky day appeared just in time when Elena was running out of the hall. He halted the car and I opened the door for her to step in.I was certain that Elena had not realized where she stepped into, but I shut the door and Liam locked it before she could even realize."Alessandro?" She called my name in shock."Take a little nap Elena, I'm sorry." I said,. making use of a white towel to cover her nose at least until she lost consciousness.DAMIAN:Before the wedding a
ELENA: As I opened my eyes, the first person I saw in front of me was Alessandro, and I immediately jerked up away from him on the bed.He was fucking insane. How the hell could Alessandro kidnap me right on my wedding day."Did you kidnap me?" I questioned angrily, recalling what happened at the hall. I averted my eyes to the wall clock and thankfully, I heaved deeply knowing that I didn't pass out for so long.."Do you need anything?" Alessandro questioned. How long was he going to continue doing this? "No, I just wanna leave here. If I need something, then it's to never see you again." I yelled at him, hoping he'd let me go after this. I wanted to go find Damian and ask him what was wrong because I was worried with the way he acted at the hall."Is this what you really want? Marry someone you fucking don't love?" Alessandro questioned, with a look in his eyes that I was unable to understand. Wasn't her marriage already so why was he stopping me from getting married?I scoffed alou
DAMIAN:I hurried into the hospital, pushing my way through a few people standing at the entrance. As I got in, Daniel led me to the emergency ward where Amanda was being attended to. I opened the door and walked right in, but damn, as I saw the condition she was in, my heart nearly stopping beating, and I felt so weak. What fucking bastard did this to her? What damned rogue did this to her?I couldn't move an inch towards her as I watched the doctor try their best to save her life."She's lost way too much blood, and we're loosing her already." One of the doctors said."I don't think the patient has any zeal to leave. She's not responding." Another doctor uttered. Taking off my wedding suit jacket, I rushed towards them,"Step aside!"Two of the doctors stepped aside like I had instructed, giving me enough space to stand. "Amanda, can you hear me, please hear me,. please.".I begged."If she's loosing blood, then you can have mine." I told one of them. "We have to first of all run so
DAMIAN:I opened my eyes and groaned lightly. The room was empty but as I try to stand up on my feet, the door opened and Daniel walked in."Alpha." He yelled, causing my head to bang even more. "Don't bring the building down, Daniel." I said as he rushed towards me holding me by my arms. "Where's Amanda? How's she?""She's awake, but she's still very weak. I just checked up on her.""I need to see her by myself." I rose to my feet and began to walk, but I halted as I recalled that my father and Elena would desperately be searching for me. "What about my dad, did you?""I made sure anyone who calls the hospital would get nothing about you or Amanda, not even Elena.""Great job Daniel, thanks." My gaze averted to his arms, and thankfully there was a bandage around his arms. I continued to walk, heading towards Amanda's ward, and when I got in, she cocked her head towards my direction. I walked until I was standing so very close to her. When Daniel brought a stool, I sat down without ta
MIA:I knew who Tristan Thompson was, and as I kept standing at Alessandro's door, I knew he was gonna come out, or let me in. I patiently waited, counting every damn seconds, and just before I utter the word 20, I heard the door knob creak even though it had taken longer than I expected.A little smirk crept on my lips as I watched the door slowly open, and when Alessandro showed his face to me, that smirk disappeared."You decided to come out simply because I have information on your mortal enemy?""I've told you times without number, Mia, you and I are simply together because of what you offered in the past. There's only a few more days for all that to be over, and I don't ever plan on renewing the contract no matter what it is that you have to offer.""Then you wouldn't wanna know where Tristan Thompson and his family are?" I moved closer to Alessandro with just two steps and continued, "Hus family destroyed your father's reputation, they made your father kill himself when you wer
MIA:As I shut the door to my office and locked it, I received a call but didn't pick it up until I got to my car. I had to hasten my steps because I was eager for the call and I had been expecting it.Maybe because I had it in mind that it was my time to put everyone in their places. I had gone through fucking enough already and to even know that both Alessandro and Damian were on Elena's side was the most painful part of everything. As I got to my car and shut the door, I answered the call when it came again, and placed the phone right next to me."Hey, what took you so long?""I'm sorry, but I was trying to confirm my suspicious after what I found out.""That's good, at least you found out something. so tell me what's it." "There's a lady, ma'am. A lady by the name Amanda, buy I have absolutely no idea who she is. They were together, and I saw him drop her off at a local street in dark moon pack.""A lady?" I questioned myself, but decided to allow him continue, "I couldn't find he
ELENA:I watched Damian effortlessly paced to and fro around the living room while holding his phone, and staring at it every 5 minutes. He would say some words under his breath, and shut his eyes in frustration at some point in time and even I couldn't think properly with whatever he was doing.Although I was still trying to understand the reason why Damian had left the wedding in such a state after hearing something from Daniel, but that wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was telling him the truth about Alessandro and I. I didn't know how Damian would take the news or if he would even help me if I told him about the news, but I had to somehow.I cleared my throat aloud, expecting him to give me attention, but Damian didn't. He didn't also stop pacing and that got me to stand on my feet and walk towards him. I touched his shoulders, which made him stop pacing, and then I made him look at my eyes,"What's wrong Damian? If you're desperately waiting for a call, th
DAMIAN:I wasn't tired of trying, and neither was I tired of trying to find out exactly who Amanda's mother was. I stepped out of the company and headed straight for the hospital, and when I arrived, I had to look around again to ensure that I wasn't being followed just like before.When I was assured that nobody was behind me, I walked into the hospital and headed for Amanda's ward. It's been two days she's here now, and I got absolutely nothing for her. Today, u wanted thing to be different because I felt Amanda was right. If I was the good guy, then there was no need to keep her locked up. She would never learn to open up to me if I did.I rasped a knock on the door and when it was opened, I stepped in to see her seated on the bed but she was backing Daniel."What's wrong?""She has been like this without moving, and I can't seems to get her out of that position."I walked towards Amanda and laid my hands on her shoulder, but she didn't move. "Hands off." She uttered with a cold a
MIA:I sat on the three seater sofa, waiting patiently for Alessandro's return, but he didn't come home up until late midnight. When I felt tired and gave up all hopes, I laid down on the sofa and Fe asleep only to wake up the next morning.Alessandro didn't come home tonight.It meant two things,It was either he had spent the night with Elena or he was somewhere else doing his normal dangerous job with his enemies. I rose to my feet and headed straight for the stairs so I could go get prepared and leave for work. About 30 minutes later, I was done preparing and ready to go. As I got outside the house, I noticed a new car amongst the cars in the compound and it didn't take me long to recognize it as Elena's car. I scoffed aloud, not even my eyes, and the fact that all this had been going for a long time and yet I failed to even notice it.Not wanting to be late for work, I found my car keys and headed straight to my car. As I got in, I ignited the engine and drove away to the compan
MIA:Jackson and I had decided not to meet up in his house. I parked my car right in front of a narrow path, ensuring that there was no passerby, when I opened the car door, Jackson stepped out from one of the corners around and immediately got into the car, shutting the door immediately he stepped inHe took off his glasses and laid back on the seat."Fuck, this is damn stressful. Why can't we meet at an hotel or something?""Because for fuck sake you dummy, Elena's beginning to suspect me, and this time, I think Elena's working with Alessandro. In fact, she's working pretty fine with Alessandro knowing fully well that's he's my husband, and what he did to her in the past."I was fucking confused at the moment."Damian too. I think all three of them are working together so we have to be extremely careful Jackson. No more constant meeting and most importantly, no sex and funny games on anyone. You should try and stay on a low key, also hide your identity as much as possible. Elena kno
DAMIAN:I parked my car in the mansion and stepped out from it, tucking my two hands into my pocket as I walked in to go see my dad. When I arrived, dad was with two of his friends, and the moment he spotted me, there was a look of disappointment in his face.I immediately took my gaze away, heading towards the stairs because I knew I had to wait till he would be done with his friends. About 2 hours later, I came back downstairs, and thankfully, his friends were gone.I didn't wait for permission, but took my seat and waited for him to speak first. That was how spoilt I was and my dad didn't really see an offense in that. Since I was an only heir and only son, I always got whatever I wanted."What happened at the wedding?"I had already planned everything I needed to say to him today. "Some of the packs property were being destroyed by rogues. I couldn't just stand back and watch.""Why wasn't I informed any of this?""Daniel found out too late and he was hurt by them. We had no idea
MIA:"The wedding was cancelled!" I questioned as Elena broke the news to dad. I was expecting him to yell at her and say all sort of things. To call her names and scold her, but he calmly asked,"Why?" He simply asked, and because of this, I widened my eyes in shock wondering what was going on."Do you know what you've done. How do you want to explain to the public about the photos released days ago? Do you want them to begin their suspicions again? This is a really dangerous step to take Elena. We need that wedding to hold."Dad cocked his head towards me, and said, "I wasn't talking to you Mia. Elena, answer the question.""Damian's going through some hard times right now, and I'm trying to be there for him. We just wanna get to know each other more and.more importantly, this decision came from Damian. You don't have to worry dad, he was the one who took down the photos so he knows what he's doing.""How do we ought to gain favor from his pack if you two don't get married right awa
AUTHOR'S POV:Amanda still laid on the bed with her gaze facing the wall, and even though she knew Damian had walked away, she didn't want to turn her head because she had tears in her eyes.Daniel could have left her to die when the rogues had attacked her and not saved her because that was exactly what she wanted. There was fear in her heart, and even though Amanda knew how to act pretty strong in front of people, she only breaks down when she's alone.Daniel didn't move an inch from the entrance where he stood watching over Amanda, but he could hear her whispers as she cried. One moment, he wanted to take steps closer to her, and them maybe try to comfort her, but the thought of Amanda snapping at him made him discard the thought from his mind immediately, and replace it with minding his own business.Daniel had never been afraid of a lady before, but for Amanda, it was quite different, especially the day she had found out it was him who nearly ran her over. The look on her face th
