STACIE'S POV I am sure that you don't want to fall out with your father because of me" If he really wants to be Alpha, he won't do anything that will make a tyrant like his father mad. Maybe this will be enough to get him to leave me alone for now. Ethan broke into a gentle smile when I said this. It was as if the person who had been threatening me a while ago was a different person. How he can change his personality on his own will really scared me. I need to get as far away from a crazy person like him or else who knows what else he is going to do to me? "So you really do care about me, Stacie? I know it! I've always known that deep down you care about me! You care about what will happen to me if I take you back to my father! Just don't ...just stop trying to fight the feelings that you have for me alright? I know that those feelings are there. Just let them come to light!" Ethan said. My mouth was hanging wide open when he was done. How he was able to come to this conclu
ANTOINE'S POV I looked at Sophia with a disappointed look on my face. At first, I had felt guilty about the way things went down between us I am the one who led her on and broke her heart after all. But seeing her like this, I just did not see it in me to feel sorry for her at all. It seems like she doesn't deserve it and I just did not know the kind of person that I was with all this time. I thought that she was a saint and I even fooled myself into thinking that I was in love with her. I can see how foolish I was for thinking that now. Right now I am just happy that I was able to get away from her for it was too late for me. "You know what? I don't want to talk to you anymore. I feel like I'll definitely lose my temper and do something that we are all going to end up regretting if you don't get the heck out of this place right now so please ... please just leave now. I don't want to see you anymore " I said to her. Sophia gave me a look that told me that all of this w
ANTOINE'S POV I am just....worried about her". Nolan said to me. I could see the concern in his eyes. He really didn't have any thoughts of her....he just thought of her as a really good friend. I can see that now. There's no need for me to be overly jealous. "Sigh...I know this. I do know that she feels that she's not good enough for me. I just don't know how to convince her that she's everything that I have needed. I don't need anyone else. I don't need someone who's good enough. I just need her. That's all... I don't know how else I'm supposed to convince her of this" I said. I don't know why Stacie will ever feel as if she's not good enough for me. She is the one who showed me what love feels. If I didn't meet her, I would have lived the rest of my life thinking that I am in love with Sophia. I would have lived the rest of my life without ever experiencing what it is like to fall in love with someone. Maybe somewhere along the line, I will realize that I was never reall
ANTOINE'S POV This can only mean one thing. There was someone here in the palace with her! My heart sank to my chest at this revelation. I was so confused and worried about her. Since there was someone here ...does this mean that Stacie was taken away from the palace? But how can someone enter the palace and take her away without anyone finding out about it? What are all of the guards in the palace doing when it happened?! What are they doing in the palace if they can't even protect my mate? Why can't they ever do anything right in their lives? I dashed out of the room. I met Nolan as I rushed out. "Did you happen to see Stacie?" I asked him. He shook his head. "What happened?! What happened to her? Did she really decide to leave? I should have known that she will attempt to do something like this!" Nolan said. "No...I don't think that she left. Her clothes are still in her room. She didn't leave. She was taken away by someone. Someone entered the palace and took her
STACIE'S POV I opened my eyes slowly. I don't know how long I've been asleep and it took my eyes some time to get used to the darkness. I tried to get up from the bed but I realized that I could not move. A few seconds later, I realized that my legs and hands were chained to the bed that I was lying on. I closed my eyes and opened them. Ethan has completely lost his mind. He claims to be in love with but this is how he treats someone that he's in love with? By chaining her to a bed and making sure that she can't go anywhere? Is this his own idea of love? Forcing a person to stay with him? Just then, I heard someone push the door open. It was clear that someone had just entered the room. Since I could not see I had to make use of my other senses. I listened closely. I could hear footsteps getting closer and closer to me. My heart sank into my chest. Ethan is a crazy person and provoking him now is just going to set him off. How am I going to get out of this place and go ba
STACIE'S POV Maybe if he thinks I am a gold digger, he'll leave me alone? I smiled at this thought. I should annoy him and piss him off some more ...maybe he will finally get tired of dealing with my attitude and he will let me go. Actually, I think that Ethan doesn't love me at all. Or he isn't obsessed with me as a person. He's obsessed with the idea that he has created of me inside his heart. Not the real me. And that is why he keeps insisting that I am in love with him. Because the idea of me he has created in his head only loves him. I really hate having to pick the brain of an obviously crazy wolf like Ethan and trying to figure out what it is that he is thinking but I know that I need to do this if I want to get out of this place alive. If I don't.....I don't even want to think about what can happen to me then. "Are you sure that you want to go back there to be Luna? Think about it, Stacie. It just doesn't make sense. I know that being a Luna may seem like it's all f
ANTOINE'S POV Three days had passed since Stacie has gone missing and there isn't a single piece of news from anyone. The guards that I asked to look for her have not been able to find anything. I had just sent some guards to go look for her in Ethan's pack. I don't know if he'll be stupid enough to take Stacie to his pack after he kidnapped her but I am willing to explore every route here. I have to find her. I will do anything and everything humanly possible to find her and bring her to my side. Just then, someone knocked on my door. The person did not wait for me to reply before he came in. "Your Highness" it was Nolan. "What is it? I thought that I told all of you not to disturb me unless you had news of Stacie. If you haven't found her don't even think about talking to me! Make sure that you find her no matter what it is that you have to do!" I said. I was so angry that I am snapping at anyone and everyone now. Whoever gets in my way will be getting a scolding from me.
Antoine's POVLet me see Alpha Antoine! I am his girlfriend!""Ex-girlfriend Sophia. You are my ex-girlfriend" I said to her. I really don't want to have to deal with her right now but there's a chance that she might know what had happened to Stacie and where Ethan took her. So I am going to take it and make sure that she tells me everything that she knows. That is right. Ethan has to be the one who took Stacie away from the palace. He is the only one who's dumb enough to do something like this. "Alpha Antoine, you can't do this to me! You told me that you were going to take care of me even after the breakup! Is this how you intend to take care of me? By ignoring me whenever I come to see you and telling the guards to harass me?" Sophia asked. I had no idea that Sophia has always been such a drama queen. This must be one of the things that she's kept away from me. "I told you that I am going to take care of you and I am going to do that. I so feel guilty for leading you on all t
ANTOINE'S POV"Sophia and Ethan are dead? Are you sure of that?". I asked Nolan. He nodded his head. "yes. From now on, we don't have to worry about them. They won't be bothering you anymore. Now we just have to focus on you and Stacie. You know that she's pregnant right now and she can't be agitated for any reason at all" Nolan told me. I nodded my head. "Yes. But now is not the time to relax. We need to completely get rid of Daniel before I can be rest assured that it's completely over. Beta Daniel will definitely not let it go since I have killed his son. He will want to get revenge on me but I have to beat him at his game and make sure that he's dead before I can enjoy myself with Stacie " I said to Nolan. "Do you know who you are going to make the Alpha if Daniel is dead? It's not like we can leave the pack unattended right? We need to place someone there so that the pack won't be thrown into chaos " Nolan told me. I nodded my head because I know that he is right. We need to
DANIEL'S POVI paced up and down in the throne room. Ethan has been gone for a few days and I haven't heard anything from him yet. I was really worried about him. I know that he won't be able to defeat Alpha Antoine. All that I wanted was for my son to come back here in one piece. That is the only thing that I need from him. One of the guards walked inside and bowed in front of me. I waved my hands. I don't need him to bow to me. All that I need is for them to find my son and bring him back to me. That is the only thing that I want right now. "What is going on? Did you find out anything about Ethan?. Do you know where he could be right now?" I immediately started to question him. "We have no news from Ethan just yet but someone told us that the Alpha had already completed his mating ceremony a few days ago. Stacie is now the Luna of the pack" the guard told me. My heart sank to my chest when I heard this. The plan was for Ethan to kill them at the ceremony. The fact that the cere
ETHAN'S POVDo you think that you'll get away with it again?" He asked me. "What are you going to do to me?"."What do you think? Of course, I'll kill you!" I was so scared that I wanted to throw up. I don't want to die. I don't want to die just yet. I want to live. At that moment, I saw my life flash past my eyes. I had a good life before I met Stacie. Even if I did not like what my father did to me, at least I was safe. There was no threat to my life. But ever since I met Stacie, it's as if things went downhill for me. All that I want is to stay alive right now. I regret a lot of things. I should not have kidnapped her. I should not have taken her against her will and brought her to my pack. I should not have come back here just because I found out that she lied to me and I want to kill her. I should not have done all of those things. I suddenly glared at Stacie. It was as if I lost all of the love that I felt for her immediately. The only thing that I could feel for her was
Ethan's POVI need to show her what it means to mess with me! "I am not the one who's going to die Stacie. You are the one who's going to die! What do you think I came here for? Do you think that I will still be so blindly in love with you that I won't be able to tell you that you're a horrible person who deserves to die?" I asked her.She laughed in my face. "You want to kill me? Ethan, you really think that you can kill me?" She asked me in a mocking manner. Where did she get all of this confidence from? What the heck is going on with her? I decided not to waste words with her. I am done talking to her. I took out the dagger I hid in my body and rushed to stab her with it. I was just inches away from her body when I felt as if there was an invincible power pushing me away from her. No matter how hard I tried, I could not move...I was stuck there. "What....what is going on?" I caught sight of the smug smile that Stacie had on her face. "I told you. You can't touch me!" She sai
ETHAN'S POV"What do you mean by that? Aren't you happy to see me?" I asked her with a smile on my face. "I said what are you doing here and how did you even get in here without anyone seeing you?" Stacie asked me..she was looking at me as if I am her worst enemy in the whole wide world. She wasn't like this before I took her away from me. At least then she was still nice to me. When did it all change? When did I become someone that she can't even stand? "The same way I took you away from here without anyone finding out. Back then, they didn't care about you so I took you away easily. Now, they still don't care about you and I am going to do whatever it is that I want with you! Why are you like this Stacie? If only you had come with me... if only you had stayed put then this won't have been happening right now! You know that I love you and that I am willing to do anything and everything for you! So why did you betray me?! Why did you throw away all of my feelings?! I was willing to
ETHAN'S POVI haven't heard of the Alpha going against the elders of the pack like this before. Do you think it's okay for me to come with you?" The bartender gave me a weary look. I know that he doesn't trust me completely. After all, he doesn't know me and he doesn't know who I am so it's understandable that he doesn't trust me at all. But I am going to convince him to take me into the palace with him. "Come on. I really haven't seen something like this in my life before. An Alpha going against all of his elders just to make the she-wolf that he likes his Luna? It must be fascinating!" I said to him. The bartender nodded his head. "Yes. You are right. It's fascinating. That is why all of us are going to see it. " He told me. "So please let me tag along with you. Don't worry. I'll be sure not to get you in trouble. As soon as I take a look at her face, I'll leave the palace. Do this for me okay?" I asked him He still seemed a bit hesitant. I suddenly had an idea. I took out some
ETHAN'S POV I was sitting in a bar. I had spent the entire day, walking through the pack and trying to figure out a way to enter the palace without getting caught by the Alpha. The security measures in the palace have increased since the last time that I was here. But I already expected this. After all, I did kidnap Stacie and take her away under everyone's noses. It's clear that the Alpha is going to want to protect her even more. I'd be suspicious if the palace wasn't guarded. I would think that they are setting up a trap for me. But as it is, there's no way they can know that I am here. I did a good job disguising myself when I came here after all. I was still lost in the thoughts of how I am going to torture Alpha Antoine and Stacie when the bartender walked over to me. "Hello, Sir. I am really sorry but you'll have to leave. We are closing up now " he said to me. I turned to glare at him it's not even twelve yet so why the heck are there closing up so soon? "What
SOPHIA'S POV The next morning, I immediately got dressed and left the palace. Alpha Daniel did not even ask me where I was going when I left. I think that he was all too happy to see me go. As he said, I am one of the reasons why his son decided to put his life in danger and go back to Alpha Antoine's pack just to get revenge. I know that I had indeed manipulated him into doing back because I want him to take revenge on Stacie for me but he won't have done it if he didn't want revenge too. He wanted to get back at her for the so-called humiliation that she gave to him so even if I didn't say anything, he still would have done something. Anyway, it no longer has anything to do with me. If he can really kill Stacie, that will be best for me because it will mean that although I didn't get the Alpha, she can't get him either. But if he doesn't manage to kill her then, he'd be the one to die and I seriously don't care at all. It's none of my business. All that I care about i
CIARA'S POV I was really worried when Sophia ended the call and told me that she was going to think about it. I thought that she had figured out that I had sold her off to the Alpha and that she was not going to show up. Sophia has always been very smart anyway so it won't be extremely hard for her to figure it out. In fact, the only thing I am counting on now is the friendship that we have with each other. If she really sees me as a friend then she won't suspect me so easily right? I was still worried about this when my phone rang again. I picked it up and saw that it was Sophia. I answered it immediately. "Fine. Ciara. Let's leave. where do you want to meet me? You are right. I need to get out of this place. And you need to get out too or else the Alpha is going to come for you sooner or later" Sophia said. I was so happy that she bought my explanation. Everything is going as planned soon, I'd be far away from this pack. As for Sophia....well, I guess that she'd be de
