Selene:

I was applying my skincare products to my body. I liked how soft it felt on my skin and it made me fall in love with my skin. Suddenly, my phone began to ring. I peeked at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

“Who the heck does this number belong to?” I thought.

I was not a fan of answering phone calls from strange numbers but I had a gut feeling that I should pick this call. I reluctantly picked up the call.

“Hello, who’s this?” I asked.

“You don’t need to know who I am, at least not for now. I want you to listen to me and listen carefully. I will send you an address and I want you to come there because I have something really important to say to you,” a man’s voice said over the phone.

I was dumbfounded. Why would a stranger order me to come and meet him in a private place? What if he’s planning to kill me or something?

“And why should I come to that address? I don’t even know you or what you’re planning to do to me so I won’t be stupid enough to do as you’ve said,”

    Natalia: I woke up in the morning with a wide and genuine smile plastered on my face. I couldn't wait to have a fun time with Klein. I sighed as I pulled myself up from the bed snapping myself back into reality and away from my world of romance. I had to ensure I got things done early and fast so I'd be able to excuse myself for the day. I soon got ready for the day, I couldn't help but admire my gorgeous self in the mirror, I was extremely excited. “Time to go.” I remained myself as I left my room and headed for Ma’am Roselyn's room. I placed a gentle knock on the door twice and when I got no reply I knew she was either In the restroom or curled up under her duvets. I opened the door gently to see for myself and I saw she was still asleep and so I left for the kitchen. The maids had already begun to prepare breakfast, it was my boss's favorite. Soon, I was told to take breakfast to her which I did. “Good morning ma’am.” I greeted stretching the tray of French toast

    Chapter 59 Roselyn: Thinking my hearing was a bit bad, I sat back when I thought I heard the doorbell ring and chuckled while watching the twins chase after themselves in the living room. The doorbell rang again and this time I was sure I wasn't imagining things, reluctantly standing up, I went to the door and yanked it open, ready to make fun of Talia whom I thought should be a long distance away from the house by now. I laughed softly, thinking she had forgotten something. "So what made you forget Talia?" I asked, not bothering to look up. "Hi." A masculine voice that I could never mistake resounded in my ears. My eyes instinctively flew towards his direction and I sure wasn't dreaming. "Hi Rose." Jackson greeted. I batted my eyelashes, placed a hand on my hips, and stared back at him. "Jackson? You? But what are you doing here?" I asked, shocked at his sudden yet glorious appearance. "It's nice to see you, Rose." He commented. Whether it was curiosity or admiration I could

    Jackson: "Will this menu be good enough or should I add more desserts?" The chef asked me for the third time that morning. "Chef Madrigal, I do not know anything about menus or the perfect combinations for the umpteenth time but whatever you make keep in mind the list of things I told you not to include in whatever you make, do you understand?" I retorted. "Well of course sir, I just wanted to make sure…” "That will be all." I cut him short and hung up. I sighed exasperatedly and dropped my phone on the table. Roselyn had agreed to me taking her and the twins out for dinner the previous night and it was happening today and after what had happened between us the previous night, I wanted it to be perfect for her and the kids as well. This was the first time we were all eating out as a family and I wanted to make a lasting impression on my children. It's exciting to even think of it, my children, mate and I would be having dinner together. Nothing was allowed to go wrong and i

    Natalia: The memories of last night flashed across my face and my cheeks turned pink from embarrassment, never had I imagined that such intimate activities would bring about a sacred bond between two people, for Klein and I, it united our spirits and souls, and never have I been so excited. We were out that night for our second date. I retracted my head back into the car, curious about our destination. "Where are we headed Klein?" I asked for the umpteenth time. "It's a surprise, but it's somewhere you'll love!" He promised. "Is it a beach?" I asked curiously. "It's late at night, why will I take you to a beach this late at night?" He joked. I pouted and slowly sucked my bottom lips, placed a hand on his lap, and gently squeezed it. "I'm driving darling, you know what your touch does to me." He said cautiously. "What does it do?" I teased. "We have to get to where we're headed in one piece, if you don't stop making that cute face I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself an

    Roselyn: My anger knew no bounds as I drove the kids back home, it was almost impossible not to vent out my anger and frustration about how the night went but the twins had a nice time and were oblivious of what had happened. They were very excited to have eaten a lot of ice cream that night and couldn't stop talking about it until we got home. "Mom, will Uncle Jackson take us out tomorrow?" Jayden asked as we all headed straight for my room. "Yes Mom, he's fun. When next will we hang out with him? Let's go out every day." Hayden said innocently. I was losing my mind but I managed to put on a smile for their sake. I yanked the door to my room open with the hope of undressing the kids, tucking them into their beds, taking a long cold shower to soothe my nerves, and getting some sleep but I met a familiar petite figure lying on my bed instead and my anger was instantly replaced with worry as I rushed towards her. "Talia, what in heaven's name are you doing here?" I asked, hurri

    JacksonSelene's episode was very annoying yet I couldn't leave her alone to die with the baby so after ensuring she was receiving medical attention at the hospital, I ran back to Roselyn's house to explain things to her, Talia, and Klein we were there and Klein was pleading with her so was I pleading with Rose. Things came to a standstill when I received a call that we were under attack, almost immediately, Klein received a call as well."The pack has been infiltrated by rogues, we need to go there." He said hurriedly.I nodded and turned to face Rose and Talia who were now scared."You can't stay here, we need to get you all to somewhere safe, get the kids, pick a few clothes, and come with us," I said worriedly.Talia and Rose got to work immediately while Klein and I discovered some battle strategies. Ten minutes later they descended the stairs with the twins and the little luggage they packed. We ushered them into the car and drove to a safe house far away from the pack. Rose was

    Natalia: I paced the living room of the safe house, scared out of my mind. This wasn't how I had thought the day would begin. I had been upset about Klien's cheating earlier but now all I could think about was how he and Jackson were doing against the Rogues. The rogues couldn't have attacked at a worse time. Just when we thought things were finally settling down. All of the Ill feelings I had towards Klien had disappeared and I was trapped in worrying for his safety. I wondered what he was doing now and where he was. We'd been connected earlier through mindlink but he'd quickly excused himself which had driven me into an insane spiral of worry and fear. Why now of all times? Roselyn was in the other room, worried to death herself and I couldn't even give her any comfort because I was also worried myself. To think we'd both been angry with our mates earlier today but now we were praying for their safe return and for them to come back to us. It would be funny if it wasn't a life

    Natalia: A knock at the door the next morning made me practically jump out of bed and speak to the front door, almost knocking Roselyn to the ground. I opened the door and sighed in relief when I saw Jackson standing at the door unscathed. "Hey," "Jackson!" Roselyn ran up to him and hugged him with the force of a thousand rhinos. "You are back!" She yelled out joyfully, her hands tightly wrapped around her mate's body. I scanned behind Jackson for Klien but he was nowhere to be found. "Where's Klien?” I asked Jackson, a little apprehensive by the fact that he wasn't there. Jackson's expression of my question already told me what I needed to know. "Tell me, what happened?" I demanded, hating the silence coming from him. "Klien is in the hospital right now," he answered, "He's badly injured after taking a shot from a rogue." I wave of dread washed over me and I had to compose myself to ask the question I was too afraid to ask "Please, take me to him." I pleaded, trying to no

    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. “
