Roselyn:

The wedding was fast approaching, it was in a week and I was starting to feel the impending doom of it.

Marrying Noah, I was sure wouldn't pose a problem for me but there was just this nagging feeling at the back of my mind that I couldn't get rid of.

I had been watching throughout this week as the maids and Noah busied themselves with preparation. Even my father was more enthusiastic about the wedding than I was ànd that was saying something.

I desperately needed a miracle at this point. Any kind of miracle.

If I was being honest, I didn't want to do this. It was too much change for me. I loved Noah to death but marriage with him wasn't what I wanted, it wasn't what my wolf wanted and yet I couldn't stop the wedding, I couldn't break his heart like that.

An image of Jackson telling me that everything was going to be okay popped up in my mind's eye and I shook my head.

This was no time for fantasies. I needed to come to terms with my new life now.

    Roselyn: I dialed Jackson's number, not waiting for my thoughts to consume me. I needed to talk about this. His phone rang but he didn't pick up. That was odd, Jackson was always with his phone unlike me, his phone was just an extension of his limbs. I dialed two more times but no answer. I decided to text him, saying I'd be at his place later tonight. I would have gone right now if I didn't have a meeting with the elders in two hours. I couldn't afford to be distracted. Breakfast was served minutes later and we all sat to eat. My father kept trying to get my attention, talking about all of the gifts that Noah had gotten for him. I had mostly been busy checking my phone for Jackson's reply but nothing. After breakfast, I left for the council meeting, but still, I hadn't heard anything from Jackson. "Now that the wedding is fast approaching when do you think Your husband will be returning to the staff," the council members asked. "He said as soon as the wedding was

    Mirabel: 10 years ago "Are you leaving?" I asked Klein later that evening after dinner. Jackson had popped up briefly for a second to eat dinner before leaving again for an important council meeting. I was getting used to not seeing him around. Sometimes, I didn't even expect him to show up. I hated the fact that he didn't seem to have time for himself and I wished there was something I could do but the elders had yet to respond to the letters I had sent to them, telling them about the fact that I didn't like the fact that my brother was constantly away from me. "Yeah, Princess. I've got to study." He said as he rose from his chair. I followed suit, pouting at the fact that he was leaving so soon. It was only 9:50 pm. "But… you can study here," I said, feeling lonely already. I hated being alone these days and most times, Klein was around to keep me company. He claimed it was Jackson's idea but I knew deep down he was doing it for me too. Whenever he was around, he'

    Klein: It had been twelve hours since the last time I saw Jackson and within that window, I had already gone from stressed to spiraling. Something was wrong. I couldn't mindlink him and his phone was with me. That was definitely unlike Jackson. Something was wrong but what? Jackson was an Alpha and one of the strongest in the realm, he couldn't have been kidnapped. My phone began to ring just then and picked it up since it was Roselyn. "Any news?" She asked, panic evident in her tone. "None," I said in a distraught tone. In an hour if he wasn't back, I'd go report to the pack's local police. I was aware a person had to be missing for at least forty-eight hours but Jackson wasn't just anyone, he was an alpha who was not answering any of his subordinate's mind links. "This isn't good Klein, we need to speak to the council soon, get a search party ready. I don't have a good feeling about this. It's been almost half the day. Hayden and Jayden won't stop crying either, something

    Mirabel: 10 years ago I frantically screamed out for help as the big grey and brown Wolf slowly and deliberately crept towards me, eyes menacing and snarl-biting and Cold. Oh no, oh no. I was going to die. He was going to kill me. I was hyperventilating and paralyzed on the spot. Completely frozen. I could feel my entire body shaking when I sat on the floor staring up at the big bad wolf about to kill me. His eyes looked like they were mocking me as he crept slowly. He knew I couldn't move, he most likely knew I hadn't gotten my wolf too, so, I was an easy target. Shit! Shit! I shouldn't have come outside. I should have stayed in. I was never going to see Jackson again and Klein. Oh Goddess, he probably thought I was in bed sleeping. Oh, Klein. Please, help me. I begged. The Grey Wolf howled and pounced on me. I closed my eyes in preparation "I love you Klein," I whispered, surprising myself as I waited for my inevitable demise. I frowned when I didn't feel an

    Mirabel: 10 years ago. "What the hell were you thinking, Mira!?" Jackson's voice boomed the next day. Klein had just told him about the Rogue wolf that had almost killed me last night. "You could have been fucking killed!" He barked, his eyes blazing. "Let her be, J," Klein cut in. "Absolutely not!' Jackson shot back at his friend. He was practically shaking in anger which in turn scared me. "Stop enabling her. She's no longer twelve, she's fuckin fourteen. Old enough to know the dangers of the woods." "I didn't mean to, Jackson. I couldn't sleep and…" I tried to explain. "You couldn't sleep and you decided running into the woods would help you? Are you stupid or something? What would have happened if you had died? If Klein wasn't there to stop him, huh?" Jackson barked. I shifted back, scared out of my wits. I had never seen him angry before, it felt like I was Like I was staring into a demon’s eyes. He was so upset. I have never seen Jacks

    Mirabel: 10 years ago “Do you think Jackson hates me?” I asked Klein two days after Jackson’s confrontation with me about going out in the woods alone. He’d even be more scarce in the pack house now, it was almost like he was avoiding me or something. Usually, he would eat breakfast with us before rushing out of the pack house like he was being chased but for the past two days, Jackson had not come down for breakfast or rather, he had left way too early for us to see him at breakfast. It was heartbreaking that he was so mad at me that he didn’t want to see me. Klein was the only person I could depend on now. He was always there when I needed him and he was the only person and reason I had not committed suicide yet. He had no idea I was suicidal too. “He doesn’t hate you, Mirabel. He is your brother and he loves you, it’s just that he’s busy these days and I know it’s no excuse, but you have to understand your brother is just 18 and, barely done with high school and

    Roselyn: Mirabel was surprisingly cooperative and taking initiative. She was just as desperate to find her brother as I was. I had not been able to sleep since I got the news that Jackson was missing. I had practically been awake all day. Noah had been calling me and checking up on me all day. He’d been the one to rescue Klein from the rogues. if he had not been there, he would not have been found. He'd traced my phone when I had not picked it up and when he found that I was in the middle of the mountains, he was worried sick and had come out looking for me. He'd even helped me rush Klem to the hospital. He'd begged me to come home with him after my treatment but I had refused because I needed to stay with Klein and check on him and he’d heeded my word. He'd asked what I had been doing down in the mountains and I had kept mute and to my surprise, he'd not pushed for answers. He had seemed more worried about me than he'd wanted his questions answers I still didn’t think I wan

    Roselyn: “Tell me, what did you find out?” I asked Noah, My heart was beating in my chest. "I don’t know how true it is, but someone in a neighboring park said they had seen him walking around. He was holding a bunch of luggage and leaving the pack apparently about to catch a flight. He also said he’d stayed at a particular motel one day before.” Noah answered, his eyes holding sympathy in them. That didn’t make any sense to me whatsoever. Why would he? Why would he just wake up and leave without saying anything? I didn’t believe it, not because I thought he was lying or anything, it was that what he was saying made no sense. Why would Jackson just leave? Jackson was not a man who would abandon his kids. He’d made it clear on the day of his disappearance. Yes, I knew he had been planning to leave the pack but if he was going to leave the pack, I had expected him to go to his pack and since Mirabel had not seen him while she was at his pack then Something was wrong “But why woul

    Mirabel: My eyes opened and I blinked up to find that I was in a small room. I shot up from my bed, wondering where the hell I was. I tried to rack my brain on how I had gotten here and I soon realized that I had been shot. I remember Michael begging me to go downstairs and the last thing I remembered was getting it be an arrow. I found my phone on a small dresser and quickly plucked it. I walked over to the door and tried to open it but it seemed to be locked from the outside. Impatient, I broke down the door and ran out of the room, I came out through the back door of the safe house and climbed out of it and into the garden. I could no longer here the sound of gun shots which was weid because I had already been out for one hour thirty minutes. Regardless, if the battle was over, someone would have come get us. I ran as fast as I could to the packhouse and as soon as I got there, I took one of the car keys and drove to the border. My heart was beating in my chest as thought

    Jackson: I groaned, pain shooting through my arms as an arrow shot through it. I glanced back to find Ezra's beta smiling maniacally at me. Ezra was no longer in the vicinity. I started to walk towards him, my gun pointed at him. I was about to pull the trigger when a bullet came shooting through his head. He fell to the ground with a thud and behind him, looking down at him was Klein. I gave a little nod and went back to fighting. It had been a full two hours since the battle started and I had lost more men than I cared to admit. Somehow, Noah's army had shown up. At first, I thought they were going to join Ezra's army but when they'd been shooting at Ezra's men, I realized that they'd come to join us. But even Noah's men were not enough for Ezra's men. It was like they kept multiplying but we weren't about to back down. Hours later, we were still fighting but my men were reducing in number. A car zoomed towards us and a single soldier belonging to Ezra's pack ju

    Mirabel: I watched as Jackson jumped into the fierce battle, shooting at Ezra's men. He'd come out of nowhere while I was watching the battle unfold up the tower close to the fence I had no idea what he'd been doing before but from his entrance, he'd seemed determined and I was scared as hell for his life. Where the hell was Claudia? I groaned. I was starting to shiver just watching from the sidelines worried to death. Where on earth was this stupid witch?? She was the only hope I had now. I had nothing but her. She'd said she'd be here in an hour but that was twenty minutes ago. Ezra's men didn't seem to be giving up. They were fierce and determined while our men were determined but injured, not to mention, weak as hell. There was only one thing I could do now and that was pray to the moon goddess that Claudia arrives before it's too late. The loud sound of a whistle blew and I peeped through the high tower window to find an army I didn't recognize marching towar

    Mirabel: 7 years ago… I still couldn't believe that Jackson had broken up with Selena for Roselyn. It didn't make sense to me. What was so special about her? I paced my room waiting for Klein so I could tell him about my new plan to get rid of Roselyn. He was late again as always and it irritated the shit out of me. I had brought it up a few times but he'd just said that he was busy with Jackson. The door to my bedroom opened and Klein walked in. "You are late again!" I yelled at him He looked at me with tired eyes and I couldn't help but feel ignored. "What? Got nothing to say for yourself?" I asked, walking up to him and glaring daggers at him. "I'm sorry. I was with your brother all day, performing my duties as the Beta of the pack." He said with a sarcastic undertone. I gave him an irritated look and he shrugged and dropped his bag. "Klein, what's the meaning of this" "Meaning of what?" He asked in an exasperated tone. "Meaning of your recent behaviors o

    Mirabel: "Selene!" I yelled as I entered the pack house, anger taking over my entire body the more I advanced into the house. "Where the hell are you, Selene?!" I called out again. It had taken a two-hour flight and Noah's army to fight off Ezra's men. It had been a fierce battle… They'd almost penetrated the pack but we'd gotten here on time and our neighboring pack had helped us out. I still couldn't believe Ezra and Selene were lovers. It boggled my mind when Henet told me what he'd heard on the phone. Bugging the pack house has been a great idea. I was finding it difficult to make sense of everything. "She's in the dungeon," Henet's voice echoed from somewhere in the room. "Henet! You are here!" I ran up to hug him. He'd been the reason I had been able to stop the war and the taking over of the pack. "Thank you so much,” I said, holding him tightly. "You are welcome, Miss Mira." He smiled. "Is this him?" Jackson asked as soon as I let go of him. "Yes, this

    Roselyn: I stared in disbelief at the scene before me. I had been on my way to the temple after trying to convince Noah once again to return the staff but he’d refused when I realized I forgot to tell him thank you. I had walked back only to find him kissing Mirabel. Mirabel and Noah? I couldn't believe my eyes. I wasn't sure what to feel. It seemed so odd. "Roselyn, I can explain," Noah's eyes widened as he separated from Mirabel and walked towards me. I moved backward, not sure what to think. "You don't have to explain anything to me, Noah, I'm just confused as to why Mirabel?" I asked. The pair was so unlikely, it seemed ridiculous. "Why are you guys not in church!" The priest came out of nowhere. We all glanced at him. "Come on, the congregation is waiting for you." He said and ordered us all to go to the hall. ***** I was seated in the hall feeling like I was crazy. I felt incredibly awkward. Seated next to Noah were about to get married and I had

    Noah’s pov “Shouldn’t you be getting ready to go out to wed your bride?” Mirabel asked as I fucked her against the door frame. “You know saying that while Roselyn is barely two doors away is so hot, right?” I grunted against her neck as my cock pumped into her sloppy moist walls. “You are going to Make a terrible husband,” she moaned out in ecstasy. “And you are going to make an amazing as hell mistress.” I said punctuating my word by slamming into her wet folds. She moaned out, her eyes rolling back in ecstasy. Fuck she was so hot. I could not get enough of her delectable body. “I love the way your pussy sucks my cock, Mira, they are perfect for each other.” “I love the way you are pounding me, please don’t stop.” She begged, her voice thick with need. My dick was throbbing with every stroke and thrust and I was slowly climbing up to the edge. So was she, I could feel her walls tightening around my cock, pulling me in like they needed me to survive. “I am not sur

    Selene: 9 years ago “Hi, I’m Selene, Mira has told me a lot about you.” I bowed to Jackson. Up close, he was more handsome than I could ever imagine. I have had the biggest crush on him for the longest time and inwardly, I felt I was going to melt but outwardly, I was able to somehow maintain my composure. He was young, only eighteen but so mature. He was nothing like the other high schoolers. I wanted so much to be his girlfriend. He was exactly my type and according to Mirabel, I was his type. It was a match made in heaven. I just needed to make him see that. “Oh? The Selene?” I’ve heard so much about you. Mirabel always finds a way to talk about you.” he said in a calm voice that scared me a bit. “Oh?” I smiled and almost gasped as he shook my hands… “Yeah, at some point, I thought you were a boy that she was in love with that probably had a feminine name.” He said with a slight smile. I gazed into his eyes and it was shining as he looked me up and down. He liked what he s

    Mirabel: I paced the cabin's porch waiting for Noah to arrive. I knew it was dangerous for us to meet here, but I was pretty sure that Roselyn and Thaila were not coming back anytime soon. At least that’s what Roselyn had said besides as soon as he arrived, I planned on following him to another location. I watched as Noah drove into the driveway and began to tap my legs against the floorboard as he walked up to me, annoyed and irritated by what Roselyn had told me he had said about seeing Jackson leave town with his bags. "Hey, you look upset, what’s wrong? He asked. " You told Roselyn that my brother left town and ran away. What is that about?" I snapped impatiently. I did not have any time to mince my words. “I’m not sure what you’re talking about and what is that supposed to mean? I told her the truth. I even gave her evidence of him traveling and leaving town and even evidence of him using his credit card and booking a flight out of the pack.” Noah said, sounding offended. “
