Brianna now stood in the dimly lit corridor, her emotions swirling like a turbulent storm. The weight of Laney’s words hung heavily, and she struggled to process the sudden turn of events.The academy, once her sanctuary, and filled with hope for her already ruined future, now felt like a cold and unwelcome place.“Look, Brianna,” Laney sighed, her voice a mix of regret and resignation. The elder Alpha, places a comforting hand on her shoulder, attempting to convey empathy. “I know that this decision must be hard for you, but it was also hard for me too, and now, the academy is falling, and…I need to save it, by…”“Being focused more on looks, than skill?” Brianna asked, her eyes filled with mixture and disbelief as she bore into Laney’s. “How come you suddenly think about that… Like okay, you want to save the academy, but you can’t just suddenly terminate the contract like this. We had an agreement, and you’re the one who gave me the idea to wear the mask!You can’t just randomly te
The Omega took a step back, as she saw the man before her. His aura, his scent, there was no mistaking, he is definitely….“A rogue,” Brianna muttered under her breath, her eyes widening as she realized the danger before her, and without much hesitation, the Omega turned around and began to run.However, before she could make it far, another rogue suddenly appeared from behind the wall and blocked her way, followed by another two from both sides. Brianna found herself cornered, surrounded by a group of rogues whose intentions were anything but benign.Realizing the dire situation, the Omega fell into a tense silence as her mind raced for an escape plan. She silently rifled through her bag, searching for the pepper spray that she always keeps for emergencies, but then she decided to not take it out, as she realized that it was useless since the number of the rogue was too much for self defense.“Should I just turn to a wolf? It’s been a while since I changed into one, and it definitely
DRAP! DRAP! DRAP! The afternoon air that should be chill now hung with heavy tension as Jack sprinted to the deserted streets. His sharp eyes darted around the whole streets, hoping to catch a glimpse of the red haired Omega who had long run from the academy with tears streaming down her face. As Jack navigated through the silent alleys, the Alpha's sense heightened as he searched for any trace of the pregnant Omega. “Money scent…Fish scent…Garbage scent…Ugh, why is there no scent of her?” Jack mused as he kept running. He didn’t even smell the scent of milk which made it more possible to find her as the milk itself was the scent of a pregnant wolf. After hours of relentless pursuit, Jack found himself reaching a dead end. All the places that his subordinate had provided, from the grocery stores to the academy, had already been looked by him, yet the Alpha still had found no luck in finding her. It was as if Brianna had vanished into thin air as soon as she left the academy. Fe
Back with Brianna.BRUK!!“Kainggg!!!”Brianna shut her eyes tightly when she heard other gruesome sounds from the rogue. The Alpha just sank his teeth into their neck. The alley was plunged into chaos, and the scent of sickening blood mixed with fur filled the air. The primal symphony of snarls, growls, and yelps echoed through the narrow alleyways, creating a cacophony of primal fury.As Brianna cautiously opened her eyes, she witnessed the Alpha’s power in action. His movements were a dance of lethal precision. Each strike was calculated to subdue the rogues who had threatened her. The rogue leader, seemingly aware that they mess with the wrong wolf, attempted to retreat, but the Alpha pursued relentlessly, and he immediately chased him.“Ah—I’m so sorry, Alpha! I didn’t know that the Omega was yours. P-Please, spar—ACKH!!!”KRAK!Without waiting for his mighty last words, the Alpha with his swift movement, lunged into him. Sinking his teeth into its vulnerable neck, which made ano
The day was already late as Brianna, Dr. Lash, and Daniel found themselves on the front terrace. The silence that settled between them was only broken by the distant sound of the night. Dr. Lash, breaking the quietude, cleared his throat, saying, “Okay, I think it’s already time for me to go. Please make sure that Jack drinks his medicine and gets plenty of bed rest. If there’s something wrong with him, don’t hesitate to call me.” Brianna gave a small smile. “Okay, thank you, Dr. Lash,” she said. The doctor nodded, and with a final look, he turned away, disappearing into the night. As the doctor left, Daniel, still with worry latched on his face, shifted as he turned to Brianna. “Well, I also have to go now. Thank you for answering my call and telling me to come after the rogue accident. I'm... really glad that you did that.” “That's fine, it should be me the one who thanks you for coming and helping us,” Brianna replied, with a small smile Daniel hesitated for a moment, his gaze
In the dimly lit down alleyway, a wolf moves with calculated grace. Its fur, a sleek coat of midnight black, glimmered under the moonlight as it navigated the narrow passages with a blend of grace and precision. Daniel’s keen senses led him through the labyrinth of the alleyway, following the lingering scent of the rogues. The primal symphony of faint growl and screeched still echoed in the air, a haunting reminder of the recent confrontations. As he arrived in the alleyway’s small gang, Daniel began to slow his step. His keenness heightened as he tried to trail the remnants of the rogue's scent. “This smell…” Daniel mused, his nose hovering over the blood trails on the ground. His eyes slightly turned red as he caught Jack’s blood in there. “Yes, there’s no mistake. It must be them… The blood rogues’. Someone let them out just like the rumors.” As Daniel continued inspecting the trail, his eyes suddenly fell on the torn fabric not far from his stand. ‘An Omega scent?’ Daniel mu
Brianna's eyes held a mixture of pain and vulnerability as she recounted the haunting chapters of her past. Jack, sitting silently across from her, listened with a grave expression. The air in the room seemed heavy with the weight of untold sorrows."I still remember how happy my life was when my father, who is an Alpha, loved me and my mother dearly, although we’re Omegas," Brianna began, a wistful smile touching her lips. "My father, Alpha Jones, was a really good, hardworking man who always prioritized and was proud of his little family, even though he knew we were not considered special and didn't possess any extraordinary powers like other wolves."She paused, her gaze distant, lost in the memories of a time when happiness seemed boundless. Jack continued to listen, sensing the upcoming storm in her narrative."My mother came from a really low family that people always labeled as... dirty," Brianna continued, her voice taking a bitter tone. "I even heard that was one of the main
"Okay, that’s my order. I don’t know how you all are going to find it, but I want you to find all the information regarding the Jones and their lost pack! and by everything I mean everything, including the dead bodies of their elders!""Yes, Alpha!"After taking the order from Jack, the group of men shifted into their wolf form. The front wolf, who seemed to be the Beta of the pack, let out a howl as if confirming the Alpha’s order, and with that, they dashed out from the pack base camp, spreading in other directions to find any information regarding the Jones.After they all left, Daniel, who stood beside Jack, clicked his tongue. “So, you’re calling me in the middle of the night, asking me to pick you up, and go to the base camp, which is located 100 km from your house just to order the boys for an investigation? Really, Jack?”Jack shrugged. “Well, what can I do? You didn’t drive my car back to my house, so I had no choice but to call you.” he said.Daniel rolled his eyes. “Sure th
Jack's father took a deep, shuddering breath, his tear-streaked face a stark contrast to the composed facade he usually wore. "It all started when I first met your mother," he began, his voice thick with emotion. "She was... she was perfect. The perfect mate, the perfect fate. I knew from the moment I laid eyes on her that she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with."Jack clenched his jaw, trying to push down the surge of emotion threatening to overwhelm him. "To the point, Father," he interjected, his voice steely with determination. "I don't need the sentimental details."His father nodded, wiping away his tears with a shaky hand. "Of course, Jack," he said, his voice more composed now. "After we were married, we were happy. Happier than I had ever been before. And when you came along, it was like... it was like all of my dreams had come true."Jack's heart clenched at the mention of his mother, a pang of longing shooting through him like a bolt of lightning. But he
Jack's hands tightened around the steering wheel as he approached the imposing gates of the Burkley household. It had been months since he had last set foot on the grounds, months since he had introduced Brianna to his family. And now, as he stared up at the sprawling mansion before him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of dread creeping over him.Parking his car in a secluded spot near the edge of the property, Jack took a moment to compose himself. He knew that confronting his father would not be easy, that it would dredge up painful memories and long-buried emotions. But he also knew that he couldn't continue living in the dark, that he needed answers—no matter how difficult they might be to hear.As he made his way towards the front door, Jack was greeted by the sight of an old servant waiting to receive him. The man's eyes widened in surprise at Jack's cold demeanor, clearly taken aback by the intensity of his anger."Master Jack," the servant stammered, bowing slightly. "I... I
As Brianna lay in her hospital bed, the events of the past few days weighed heavily on her mind. She tried to sleep, to escape from the turmoil that churned inside her, but sleep eluded her. Instead, she tossed and turned, her thoughts consumed by the darkness that threatened to engulf her.She couldn't shake the memory of Michael's taunts, his cruel laughter echoing in her ears. The realization that he had orchestrated the entire ordeal, that he had manipulated her into believing his lies, filled her with a sense of betrayal so profound it was almost suffocating. How could she have been so blind, so naive?And then, there was the truth—the truth about Jack's involvement, about the choices he had made that had led them to this point. It was a truth she wasn't sure she could bear, a truth that shattered the fragile illusion of love and trust she had built around him.A single tear slipped down her cheek as she lay in the darkness, her heart heavy with sorrow. She had wanted so desperat
The lighthouse door swung open, and there he was—Jack, her beacon of hope in the darkness. His voice carried a mixture of fear and relief as he called out to her, his presence flooding her with a sense of comfort she hadn't realized she'd been craving.But before Brianna could fully process Jack's arrival, Michael's sneer cut through the air like a knife. He tightened his grip on her arm, his voice dripping with contempt as he addressed Jack."So now Romeo is finally here, huh?" Michael scoffed, his eyes glittering with malice. "Well, that's classic. Never knew it would happen in real life too. And I never knew that I would be the villain. I always used to wish to be a Romeo."Jack huffed heavily, his chest heaving as he took in the scene before him. He had rushed up the stairs in a blur of desperation, fueled by the need to reach Brianna, to ensure her safety. Now, as he regained his composure, he stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Michael."Let go of her, Michael," Jack demanded, hi
As Jack stood outside, frustration gnawing at him, he heard the door open behind him. Turning, he saw Daniel emerging from the room, accompanied by Nina and a few others. Jack's brow furrowed in anticipation as he waited for Daniel to speak.Daniel approached Jack with a solemn expression, his gaze meeting Jack's with a sense of urgency. "Jack, we've made some progress," he began, his voice steady but grave. "Nina has confirmed that Sam and Michael have been seeking each other out a lot lately."Jack's frustration only deepened at the confirmation of his suspicions. "And what else did she say?" he pressed, his voice tight with tension.Daniel hesitated for a moment before continuing. "Nina didn't know the motive behind their meetings, but I believe it's clear that Sam was involved in this to elevate Nina's career by assisting Michael," he explained, his tone laced with conviction. "The timing of Brianna's disappearance and Nina's sudden rise to prominence is too much of a coincidence.
As Brianna sat sandwiched between Michael and Sam in the jeep, her heart pounded with fear and anger. She couldn't believe that Sam, the man who had been a fatherly figure to her, was involved in this betrayal. She shot him a glare, her eyes filled with accusation and disbelief."What are you doing here, Sam?" she demanded, her voice laced with anger. "And why are you doing this to me?"Sam lowered his head, unable to meet Brianna's gaze. The weight of his betrayal hung heavily upon him, his heart heavy with regret. But before he could respond, Michael's chilling voice cut through the tense silence."Sam is here because he knows where his loyalties lie," Michael replied, his tone cold and unforgiving. "And you, Brianna, are simply collateral in our plans."Brianna's eyes widened in shock at Michael's callous words. She couldn't believe that he saw her as nothing more than a pawn in his twisted game. Anger bubbled within her, but she suppressed it, knowing that any outward defiance wou
Jack stood amidst the chaos, his frustration mounting as he surveyed the scene before him. The police officers worked diligently, examining every inch of the room for clues to unravel the mystery of the Fosters' escape.His eyes fixated on the gaping hole in the wall, a knot forming in his stomach as he tried to comprehend how the Fosters had managed to pull off such a daring escape."How in the hell did they–" Jack began, his voice trailing off as he struggled to find the words to articulate his frustration.DRAP! DRAP! DRAP!"We found one of the Foster bodies! It lies not far from the ruins!"The news only served to deepen Jack's frustration as he watched the officers work tirelessly to retrieve the fallen body.His gaze shifted to an object lying nearby, the very object that had been used to explode the wall. Jack scowled as he studied it, unable to fathom how the Fosters had acquired such a device, let alone how they had managed to keep it hidden from prying eyes."Why didn't we k
Jack's fury erupted like a tempest within the interrogation room, his rage boiling over at the sight of Derek Foster, the man who had caused so much pain and suffering. With a primal roar of anger, Jack slammed his fist against the table, the force of his blow sending a resounding crack reverberating through the room. "How could you?" Jack seethed, his voice filled with a potent mixture of disbelief and contempt. "How could you do that to her?" Derek recoiled in terror, his eyes wide with fear as he cowered against the bed. "I-I didn't mean to—" he stammered, his voice trembling with fear. But Jack's rage was unrelenting, his eyes burning with a fierce intensity as he advanced on Derek, his every step echoing like thunder in the cramped confines of the room. "You didn't mean to?" he spat, his voice dripping with scorn. "You raped her, Derek. You violated her trust, her body, her very soul. And for what? To satisfy your own sick desires?" Sophia, Daniel, and the surrounding police o
As the car rumbled down the dimly lit streets, Daniel's focus was unwavering, his mind already anticipating the upcoming interrogation. Sophia sat beside him, her gaze drifting between the passing scenery and her companions, a faint furrow marring her brow.Sophia's voice broke the silence, her tone hesitant yet concerned. "Do you think it's wise to leave Brianna and Celicia alone?" she asked, her eyes flicking towards Jack in the rearview mirror. "Couldn't they come with us? Maybe they could wait in the reception area while we conduct the interrogation."Daniel glanced at Jack, waiting for his response, before turning back to Sophia. "It's too risky," he replied evenly, his tone serious. "We can't afford to compromise their safety, especially considering the volatile nature of our situation."Sophia nodded in understanding, though a flicker of worry danced in her eyes. "I suppose you're right," she conceded, her voice tinged with reluctance. "I just can't shake this feeling of unease
