MARCELLUS’ POV.

Anger coursed through my veins as I turned over the file in my hands, irritably I tapped my finger against the desk, my mind somehow had managed to trail back to the previous night, and the annoying look Raphael had, also the courage he mustered this morning,

He wanted Fiona. I understood her as lovable, sharp, and pretty, but I swear I would murder that bastard like I had promised if he laid his fingers on Fiona, or worse if I caught something as simple as his shadow lurking around her.

I peered slowly, raising my glance in the direction of the door; a gentle knock was placed on the door, causing me to roll my eyes. Whoever it was would have to deal with my aggressions today, I was looking to blow off some steam anyway.

What was it again? What more this time? Mumbling beneath my breath, I pushed off the file in my hands against the desk. Certainly, I ordered Trevor not to let anyone in or around my study today.

“Come in,” I asked curtly, a frown on my face, which was

    FIONA'S POVI jolted in bed from shock as continuous knocks were placed by the door, arching my eyebrows; I bit against my lower lip, worrying striking my nerves. Was it Lena? What more did she want from me?Cursing under my breath, I stuck to my feet, slowly approaching the door; the knock came again, steadier than the first. Bracing myself, I pushed open the doors.“Lady Fiona?” Instant relief coursed through my veins as a smile spread on Raphael’s lips, he tucked both hands together and leaned right by my door frame.“You don't look too excited,” he asserted, arching his eyebrow. I glanced around suspiciously, weary of the environment, before taking him by his arm and pulling him into the room in haste, I slammed the door, staring wide-eyed at him, wondering if he was indeed innocent or was fuckimg dumb.“Why are you here?!” I asked, glancing around the room, my tone hushed, worried that someone might hear and things would end up in a pretty bad way for him.“I promised to see you

He had a stiff frown on his face, and it worried me. It was not time for me to tend to his bed, but it didn't seem like he was here for such a thing as that.“I believe you are free right now?” He asked and I nodded, gesturing that he take his seat, my mind racing through a million of my thoughts as to why he was here.“Did I do anything wrong, my lord?” I asked; I didn't like Marcellus in a terrible mood; it made every nerve of mine set ablaze.“How is the training going along?” He asked, taking me by surprise, My eyes were boring into his.“What training?” I asked, trying to recall what he meant, yet nothing had popped up.“Fiona's, I made it clear to you that you began her lessons about pack duties, did I not?” He asked, tapping his fingers against his sides; he did that when he was often pissed.

    MARCELLUS POV.Perhaps I made it too obvious, or maybe it was right on cue; I didn't care as much when I approached Lena or blurted out those words. She always said it wasn't the first time like she claimed; I never bothered to correct it. Due to Her family's influence, she went about calling shots and making orders as she deemed fit. The only reason I never stopped it was quite simple. It had been absurd and a necessity; if they wouldn't stand for themselves and talk back against her ill-treatment, then it was none of my business. I had always been a man of principle, yet it baffles me to see how since the first day my Fiona had stepped into my life; I changed my principles.Walking through the doors to my office, I could see my beta. Standing with an anxious look on his face.“For fucks sake I never get to catch a break,” I grumbled, seated behind my desk,“It's the elder of councils. They've called an impromptu meeting.

We both know all he's aiming for with his Lena being the Luna. I responded with a shrug, the words rolling off my tongue with such heavy bitterness.“Smart, you know...” Trevor asserted, trailing off to the ends of his words.“Look here, I know she's smart, and I know she's got the face, brains, and all, but Lena isn't the type to just pass out power; she isn't even Luna yet and she's causing a ruckus amongst all the other mistresses. Besides, there's no way I'll give that old geezer the satisfaction of having half of the pack,“ I snapped, taking another puff. My eyes settled on the ceiling, and

    MARCELLUS’ POV.“You may all leave,” I ordered once more; they seemed more stunned than I expected them to be. After all, everyone always believed Lena would top things, and at this moment I could see how dazed she was, driven to silence, and I could see her eyes almost from their sockets from fear.She was doing a great job holding her pain in., not like I cared after all; I would have my way in a bit. I watched them all scurry out of the waiting room, Darla and Fiona in the last row.“Except you, Fiona”. I ordered her and her feet stopped to a rather long pause; she exchanged gazes with Darla, who only passed a smile in her direction.“ I'll leave you both, I'm happy you made a choice.” Dark asserted before making her way out through the door. I fought hard to have a smile tucked in; Darla had a way with words, her guesses running wild. I haven't made a decision yet; how on earth had she made me think I was in any way interested in keeping Fiona to myself?“For fuck's sake, look at

    FIONA'S POV I Got a twisted feeling when he had asked that I stay back. He said nothing, but I could feel his gaze creep into my body. My heart, however, had skipped beats in a row hearing those words.I swallowed a visible lump in my throat seeing his huge fucking cock even in its partially hardened state stare at me; I knew it was wrong, and I looked like a pervert, but I couldn't avert my gaze from his size.It was huge, fucking huge. I had seen it three times already, but this once I was sane, not drunk, not in tears.Wanting to know if this was a mere bluff of his, if he was only testing my courage I was curious to see how he would react if I didn't back down; if I stood firm to my words, what would he do?An insane urge and need to know pumped through my veins. I reached for the cock,; it was becoming harder, the skin soft against my warm palms.“There, see how it twitches in response? You fucking turn me on, Fiona… It reacts like this to you alone;” he breathed out, his eyes

She knew what it was that I meant, and I had no time to spare for jokes.I pulled her closer to me, my left arm wrapped around her waist and the right one on her lips.“You are everything to me,” I whispered as I grazed my lips over her earlobe; she whimpered a little from delight as I nibbled on her earlobes.I pulled away from her, feasted my eyes over her body in a needy manner, and she drove me insane by every bit, each piece of sanity in my head, that was no longer there.“Do you want this, just like I do?” I asked, pulling away from her. My voice hoarse as she nodded; she slid off the arms of her top, pulled it down as her perky boobs came into view, and I swallowed hard, reeling each moment into my mind and enjoying her sight; she was indeed beautiful by all fucking means.

    MARCELLUS’ POV.The world around me was chaotic. I held Fiona in my arms, her body limp and lifeless. Blood soaked my hands, her shirt, and the floor. My mind screamed at me to do something, to fix this, but for the first time in my life, I felt utterly powerless. “Get the car ready!” I barked at the couple, my voice trembling with urgency. The woman, pale and shaking, nodded and ran outside while her husband brought towels. “Press this against the wound!” he shouted, handing me a bundle of fabric. I did as he said, applying pressure to her side. Fiona’s blood seeped through the towel almost instantly. My chest tightened as I looked at her face. She was so pale, her breathing shallow. “Stay with me,” I whispered, my voice breaking. “Don’t you dare leave me, Fiona. Don’t you dare.” The minutes felt like hours, but finally, the car screeched to a stop outside the house. I carried her out, cradling her as if she might shatter, and laid her gently in the back seat. “Drive!”

    FIONA'S POV.The sun poured through the window, bathing the room in golden light. I stretched my arms above my head and smiled to myself. The past few days had been peaceful, almost like a dream. The couple who had taken me in were kind, their warm smiles and gentle voices making me feel safe. For the first time in a long while, I felt free. I busied myself organizing the small space they’d given me. The bed was neatly made, and my clothes were folded into the old wooden dresser by the corner. I glanced around the room, feeling a sense of accomplishment. Everything looked perfect. On the bedside table, a vase held a single sunflower. I had picked it from the garden that morning, and its bright yellow petals seemed to brighten the entire room. I hummed a tune as I moved about, wiping down surfaces and arranging the few belongings I had. My heart felt light, and I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so content. As I placed a book on the small shelf by the window, a sudden n

Days of searching and still no sign of Fiona. It was unacceptable. Made me feel more miserable.I barely slept a wink, it had begun taking its toll on me, I felt miserable, I was the alpha and yet I couldn't even find my mate, just one thing that finally belonged to me, one person with whom I shared my soul with was never to be foundMy incompetence mocked me, Raphael had searched around the mountains, and the woods, and extended his armies yet nothing had been found, and now it was draining me,I rubbed my temples, trying to make sense of the scattered leads my men had brought in. Each report felt like a dead end, a cruel reminder that she was slipping further out of my grasp. The thought of her out there alone, unprotected, drove me mad. A knock on the door broke my thoughts. “Enter,” I barked, my tone harsher than I intended. T

  • Betrayed, But Redeemed.   A fresh Start

    MARCELLUS POV. The warm sunlight brushed against my face, nudging me awake. My eyes fluttered open, and for a moment, I felt disoriented. The soft, unfamiliar bed beneath me, the faint smell of lavender in the air—it was nothing like the cold, suffocating walls of the pack house I had known. Slowly, the events of the past day pieced themselves together in my mind. I had run away. I had been found. I sat up, the cozy quilt slipping off my shoulders. The room around me was simple but inviting, with wooden furniture and a vase of fresh flowers by the window. It felt strange to wake up in a place that didn’t carry the weight of judgment or whispers behind closed doors. A part of me wanted to sink back into the bed and never leave. Voices from downstairs caught my attention, and I climbed out of bed, stretching my stiff limbs. My borrowed dress hung neatly over the chair, a soft blue fabric that smelled like detergent and warmth. As I slipped it on, I couldn’t help but feel a flicker

    MARCELLUS’ POV The search continued, not seeming to end soon. Every passing hour without a single lead on Fiona's whereabouts chipped away at my mental stability. Reports came in regularly—territories checked, patrols doubled—but they all said the same thing: no trace of her. My frustration was increasing, not at the effort of my men, but at myself. I had failed her. Sitting in my study, the air felt heavy with the weight of my decisions. I stared at the phone in my hand, my thumb hovering over Raphael’s contact. I had already called him earlier, several times, but there had been no answer. I couldn’t wait any longer. Swallowing my pride, I dialed his number again, pacing the length of the room as it rang. One ring. Two. Five. Still nothing. My hand clenched around the phone, and I nearly hurled it across the room. But then I stopped myself, letting out a frustrated sigh. I couldn’t afford to lose control now. Not when Fiona was still out there, alone and possibly in danger.

  • Betrayed, But Redeemed.   Shallow Assumption

    MARCELLUS’ POV The study was dim, lit only by the soft, flickering glow of the fire. Shadows danced on the walls as I stared at the mountain of paperwork in front of me. Documents about rogue sightings, territorial disputes, and pack finances lay scattered across the desk. They demanded my attention, yet my mind refused to focus. I leaned back in my chair, pinching the bridge of my nose. The weight of my responsibilities pressed down on me like an iron chain. Every decision felt heavier these days, and no matter how hard I worked, the burdens only seemed to grow. And then there was Fiona. Her face, her voice, her very existence haunted me. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her. But I had no right to think of her, no right to care—not after what I’d done to her. The sharp rap of knuckles against the door startled me from my thoughts. I frowned, irritation rising. “Who is it?” I barked. Before I could receive an answer, the door burst open, and Darla stormed in. Her urgency wa

  • Betrayed, But Redeemed.   Darla’s Return

    DARLA’S POV. The journey back to the pack house was filled with mixed emotions. Leaving my parents behind was never easy, especially when my mother was still recovering. But I’d done everything I could for her, ensuring she had the medicine and care she needed before I left. As I approached the pack grounds, the familiar sights and sounds of home greeted me. The towering trees, the scattered houses, the faint rustle of the wind—it was all comforting yet tinged with a sense of unease. Something felt off, though I couldn’t quite place what. After handing my bags to a nearby omega to take to my quarters, I made my way inside the pack house. The grand halls were quiet, the air thick with tension. It wasn’t unusual, given the recent events—the Luna ceremony, Raphael’s departure, and the ever-present whispers of unrest. I headed straight for my room, hoping to freshen up and settle in before checking on Fiona. The thought of her brought a small smile to my face. Fiona had always been

    FIONA'S POV.The city lights blurred in the distance as I trudged down the road, my legs feeling like they would give out any moment. The cold bit at my skin through my thin sweater, and my stomach growled angrily, reminding me that I hadn’t eaten since the night before. I kept moving, though every step felt heavier than the last. The sound of passing cars in the distance grew faint as I stumbled further into what seemed like a quiet neighborhood. The towering buildings gave way to smaller homes, their windows glowing warmly against the night. But I didn’t belong here. I didn’t belong anywhere. A sharp pain shot through my foot, and I winced, realizing I’d stepped on a jagged rock. I leaned against a nearby tree, my vision blurring as exhaustion finally caught up to me. The last thing I remembered was the world tilting and the ground rushing up to meet me. --- When I opened my eyes, I was no longer outside. Instead, I found myself in a small, cozy room. The walls were pain

    FIONA’S POV I woke up to the sound of Maya’s hesitant knock on my door. My body felt heavy, as if I’d been carrying a weight too big for me to bear. The moment I opened my eyes, the room felt colder and emptier. Something was wrong, but I didn’t know what.“Come in,” I croaked, my voice hoarse from last night’s tears.Maya stepped in, her eyes darting nervously. She was wringing her hands, and the look on her face sent a chill down my spine.“Miss Fiona,” she started, her voice trembling, “I… I thought you should know. Raphael… he’s gone. He left early this morning. I overheard the guards talking. He’s not coming back to the pack.”Her words hit me like a punch to the stomach. My heart sank, and my vision blurred with tears I hadn’t realized were forming. “He’s gone?” I whispered, my voice shaking.Maya nodded, her expression full of pity. “Yes, miss. He left for his own pack. He didn’t tell anyone goodbye.”I sat there, frozen, as the reality of her words sank in. Raphael had left w
