Sierra pov.We both stood there, looking at each other, as I didn't know what else to say. She really didn't want to see my face, right? Then, I guess I will have to make it possible.I walked closer to her, the gap between us diminishing, and then I grabbed her by the shirt, pulling her forward."I have been trying all day to calm myself down and forget about the death of my mother. I will not let anyone who isn't welcome come spoil this day for me. So, if you truly don't want to see my face, Alex, you can get out now, or I will push you myself."She grabbed my hands, and I looked at her. She smiled, then leaned closer, her lips near my ear."This isn't over."She pushed me backward, turning to walk away, but she stopped for a moment and smiled, turning to face me."I will always make sure to bring only pain to you, Sierra." And with that, she walked away.I placed my hands on my chest, releasing the heavy breath that I had been holding within me for quite some time now.Just as I wa
Henry pov.After Alex left, I was extremely angry. However, I decided not to show it, even though just seeing the way she spoke to Sierra was getting on my nerves.I kept my anger bottled up inside, determined not to let it out and do something unexpected.Sierra and I entered the house together, and I quickly came up with a lie about needing to fetch some items.I knew that if she found out I was going to the castle, she wouldn't allow me.I stepped out of the house, my anger still simmering within me as I made my way towards the castle.When I arrived, I took a moment to observe it. I knew I had been banned from entering the castle, but I couldn't let them keep coming to Sierra and making her sad.As I opened the gate and walked into the castle, I noticed all the maids stopping what they were all doing and staring at me. I marched forward with a scowl on my face. Just as I was about to reach for the castle door handle, it swung open, and William walked out.I could see the hatred, a
Williams pov.I don't know if I did the right thing or not, but I know, after all this time, I haven't been able to sleep. After locking Henry up, I felt sad, but I have to do the work of an Alpha.I walk out of the castle, as I decide to go visit Sierra. Maybe I can tell her how truly sorry I am and ask for forgiveness. As I walk, people bow to me, but I'm not in the mood for that. At that point, I just felt like seeing Sierra.Upon arrival at her house, I stood there, taking in the sight of the house one more time and seeing how old it has become. It's so painful when she lost her mother, but how can I tell her how sorry I am?I lift my hand and knock on the door, waiting for it to be opened. I know, as an Alpha, I can enter places I want without even being questioned, but I don't want to be like my father. I want to be different from him.After a while of standing, I decided to knock again. The door opened, and I saw her standing there, looking at me. I could see how her face sudde
Sierra pov.I broke down in tears after he left, and I just could not stop myself from crying. Why do I feel so hurt seeing him once again?I tried to wipe away the tears, but the more I did, the more tears kept running down my eyes.I closed my eyes one more time, feeling like I was giving up hope and starting all over. But whenever I think of him, I just feel like sinking back into his hands.I stood up from the floor, slowly walking over to the couch, and sat down. Was that the reason he came? because he wants me back?I placed my hands over my head once again, feeling pain. For the past months, I've been feeling kind of weak, and I haven't even gone to see the pack doctor about it.I closed my eyes, trying to relax and calm down a little bit. I took a deep breath, but just as I did that, I felt a bit of pain in my belly.I have never felt a pain like that, apart from the headaches and weakness, and a little pain I have been feeling lately. But today, it felt as if my stomach was o
Sierra pov.Just hearing what the doctor said, I felt so shocked that I could not move or think anymore. It was as if a cold wave had washed over me, leaving me drenched and in need of someone to dry me off.I discovered that I was pregnant, but how? I looked at Henry, who stared back at me in surprise. Then my gaze shifted to the doctor, who wore a smile on his face as he looked at me.All this time, I had been carrying a child within me, completely unaware. My hands moved instinctively to my stomach, as if trying to grasp the truth of it all."Sierra," I heard my name, and I turned to face Henry, who looked at me with concern."Are you okay?" he asked.I nodded, but remained silent, unable to find the words to express my feelings."I suppose I will leave you both alone," the doctor said, as he turned and walked away, leaving just Henry and me in the room.I sat on the bed, my thoughts in disarray. What would become of my life now that I was pregnant? I turned my head to look at Henr
Two Days…Henry pov.It has been two days now, and Sierra still hasn't come back. I feel deeply worried, consumed by the guilt of not stopping her that night.I have searched for her tirelessly, scouring every possible place, but she remains elusive.I find myself sitting in the same chair she loved, gazing around her once vibrant house, now eerily quiet without Sierra's presence. The serenity that once enveloped these walls has now transformed into a desolate emptiness.Could she have harmed herself? The thought sends shivers down my spine, and fear grips me, especially considering the burden of her pregnancy.My mind is overwhelmed with incessant thoughts, and I can feel myself losing grip on reality.The fact that I have no knowledge of Sierra's whereabouts torments me, and it drives me to the brink of madness.Unable to bear the uncertainty any longer, I rise from the chair, aimlessly pacing around the house, unsure of my next move.After contemplating for a while, I resolve to ta
Williams pov."What have I done? What have I gotten myself into that I have to make the biggest mistake of my life?"After hearing what Henry told me, I haven't been myself. I couldn't believe I had a child all this while and I didn't know.I sat in my office, refusing to come out or see anyone. But where could Sierra have gone with my child? Was she planning on harming my child?I stood up quickly as that thought filled me with fear. What if she hurt the child?Just as I was about to walk out of my office to go look for her, the door opened, only for Alex to walk in."What do you want?" I asked her, staring into her eyes as she walked over to me in a seductive way."What's wrong, Alpha? Aren't you happy to see your Luna?"I looked at her, and just as I was about to walk out, she shut the door and leaned against it, looking at me."Get out of my way. I need to go look for my wife."She smiled, moving closer to me as she placed her hands around my chest. I pushed her away."I don't hav
Alex pov.The way he stared at me, and how he walked out of the castle left me wanting to thrust a stick into his eyes.How dare he come in here and spew nonsense! I couldn't care less if Sierra is pregnant or not, but one thing is certain—I will ensure she never sets foot in this castle.I observed William, who wore a rather concerned expression, and couldn't help but smile at his foolishness. He should be grateful that he married me, yet he still loves her.Upon witnessing him enter his office, I positioned myself by the door, scheming on how to make him mine and mine alone.I stepped into the office, but no matter what I tried, he kept pushing me away, and that infuriated me the most.Returning to my room, I seethed with anger as I sat on the bed.Ever since I became the Luna, I thought my life would be easy, but it isn't. He still continues to obsess over that wretched Sierra. "Oh, how I wish I could just put an end to her once and for all."I paced around my room, contemplating m
Sierra pov.It had been three months since I lost my child, and I was still residing in Dean Castle. I felt scared because Linda, without fail, always made sure my life became a living hell.I had tried everything to be kind to her, but she incessantly blamed me for joining the Ghost Pack and stealing Dean away from her, which was far from the truth.Most of the time, I hid in my room, afraid to come out, as if this were just another nightmare to endure.As I sat on my bed, contemplating my next move, a knock on the door startled me. I gazed at it with trepidation as it slowly opened, revealing Linda's presence.I wondered why she had come or if she had come to turn my life into a living nightmare.I observed as she approached me with a smile and sat down beside me. It was the first time she smiled at me, and I couldn't discern if it was a jest or if she had genuinely decided to be pleasant."Are you okay?" I inquired, as she continued to gaze at me, her smile still intact.I remained
Alex pov.After we both started walking, I couldn't help but hold onto William's arm tightly, and soon we arrived at the castle."Why did you leave without telling me?" I heard him say, his voice filled with a mix of curiosity and concern, as I turned to look at him."Well, I thought you needed some time alone," I replied, trying to explain my actions.Upon hearing my response, he gently turned me around, his strong grip enveloping my hands, and locked his gaze with mine."You're going to be my Luna soon, so why don't you start acting like one?" he said, his tone both gentle and commanding.I pulled my hands away from his, feeling a surge of frustration rise within me, as I continued to stare at him intently."Well, you never stop thinking about her, so how am I supposed to feel comfortable telling you that I want to take a walk outside the castle?" I shouted, my voice echoing through the empty halls. Realizing the intensity of my outburst, I took a deep breath and glanced up at Willi
Alex pov.For days now, I haven't laid eyes on Sierra (which was actually a good thing). I glide through my castle with a sense of pride, knowing that soon all of this will be mine.The past few days have left me astounded. William hasn't driven me away or uttered a single complaint about Sierra. The thought of her has not crossed his lips.I close my eyes, and a cool breeze gently passes through me, bestowing upon me a profound sense of calm and relaxation.If Sierra hasn't returned yet, does it mean she might have gone with Henry?Confusion engulfs me, and I struggle to discern my thoughts. It feels as if my mind is teetering on the edge of insanity. What if Sierra has informed him that I abducted her? Will all my plans crumble to dust?Placing my hands on my head, I attempt to ease my troubled mind and temporarily forget about Sierra."I believe it is time for a walk downtown," I whisper with a smile, embarking on a journey beyond the castle walls.The way the people show their res
Sierra pov.Hearing those words, I couldn't help but lose focus on myself, as if the world had already forgotten about me. The weight of Dean's gaze filled me with guilt, and I felt as if my life had become an utter mess."I'm sorry," Dean kept saying, his eyes filled with pity and hurt."Why me?" I whispered, feeling weak and bewildered, no longer knowing what was happening around me.Dean moved closer, pulling me gently until my head rested on his shoulder. Tears flowed uncontrollably from my eyes, and I felt utterly shattered, as if the world had turned its back on me."Why do I have to face such bad luck? Why does it have to be me? What has my child done to deserve being taken away from me? Why?" My words barely escaped my lips, choked with pain.I couldn't help but feel broken inside, and Dean held me tightly. Regret washed over me, realizing that coming here had been a mistake. What would happen when Henry and Williams found out that my child was gone?What would Williams do if
Sierra pov.I quickly pulled away after hearing that shout—it was Linda's voice, and I think she caught us.I was so caught off guard that I didn't know what I had just done. I ran away and headed to the bathroom, quickly locking the door behind me.What is going on with me? Why am I making such mistakes? I felt helpless, so I cried, not knowing what to do.I think it's best if I just leave this place; otherwise, everything will only get worse by the second.I was so scared of myself; I hated what I had just done every second.I stayed there, and Dean kept calling my name, asking me to open the door, but I just sat there, not even getting up.This was worse than what I faced in the Lycan pack. Isn't it better if I just stayed there and became a slave for everyone to use?"Sierra, open up," Dean's voice pleaded, but I remained silent."Please, just open it. I'm sorry."Hearing him say that, I felt like hitting him. Did he just say he was sorry? He said the opposite a minute ago, and al
Sierra pov.I pushed him away forcefully, my instinct taking control, and without a second thought, I slapped him. Fear washed over me immediately, consuming my senses, as I grappled with the reality of what I had just done."Sorry," I whispered softly, my voice barely audible, as I turned on my heels and fled towards the solace of my room.Upon reaching the refuge of my chamber, I closed the door behind me with a heavy heart, leaning against it for support. Confusion swirled within me, for he didn't even know me, yet professed his love.I covered my face with trembling hands, resting my head on my knees, desperately trying to make sense of the chaos that had entered my life. Why had the Goddess chosen to subject me to this living nightmare?The weight of the world seemed to descend upon me, as if doomsday itself loomed on the horizon, ready to crash down upon me without mercy. I couldn't shake the feeling that my life had become a tangled mess, and the timing couldn't have been worse
Sierra pov.As I witnessed her utter those words, it felt as though a sharp knife had been mercilessly thrust into my being. Overwhelmed by the pain, I instinctively clutched my stomach, squeezing my eyes shut in an attempt to regain composure and catch my breath.Should I distance myself from this pack as well? Merely contemplating the things she said fills me with an overwhelming sense of fear.Tears began streaming down my face, my heart shattered into countless pieces, leaving me utterly lost and clueless about what to do next. If only Henry were here, he could find a way to bring a smile to my face.I shifted my gaze towards the ceiling, fixating on it for several minutes, and gradually, the agony started to dissipate, leaving behind a faint glimmer of happiness.Fatigue started to wash over me, and the desire to slumber indefinitely, never to awaken, crept into my consciousness. However, just as I was about to surrender to sleep's embrace, an abrupt knock disrupted my tranquilit
Sierra pov.I could not help but pull away after hearing voice behind us. I turned, only to see Linda standing there, looking at us.She walked over to where Dean and I were, and I could see the anger in her eyes as she looked directly at me.I wanted to walk away, wanted to run and hide, but I just stood frozen in place."What are you doing here, Linda?" Dean asked her, as I watched him turn and stare at her.Linda was so angry that she didn't even look at Dean, but focused solely on me."Is she really someone you want to help, or are you having an affair with her?"I looked up at her, trying to let her know it was a mistake. I hated coming here; I could have just stayed in that old house in the woods and let Alex kill me instead.I watched as Dean dragged her and pulled her closer with force. I could see how he held her tightly, and she yelled in pain."She is a friend, Linda, and you are my Luna. I was only trying to help her; she needs help. Can't you see the condition she's in?"
Sierra pov.I stood frozen in place, unable to move, as I caught sight of her seated there, her eyes fixed on me. What did she want? Was something wrong?She gracefully rose from the bed and made her way toward me, her every movement captivating my attention."I can see that my Alpha is quite intrigued by you. By the way, what are your plans for coming here?" she inquired, her voice carrying a hint of menace, as though she could annihilate me with just a glance.Feeling overwhelmed, I averted my gaze, unsure of how to respond. Why was she asking such a question?At a loss for words, I remained silent, incapable of formulating a suitable answer. I had no plans for coming here; all I yearned for was freedom and a chance to live a different life.Looking back up at her, I could sense her impatience, the disapproval evident in her demeanor. It seemed clear that she harbored no fondness for me."Sorry, Luna, but I have no plans," I stammered, a tinge of fear betraying my eyes.She stood th
