SOPHIA'S POV He told me that he is going to make him his Luna regardless of the fact that he found his mate or not. How can I settle for something like this?" "How do you expect me to settle for the fact that he told me all of that and then went ahead to date you? He gave me up and then he pulled the rug from under my feet. I am never going to forgive you for doing that to me. He's supposed to be mine! If it weren't for you, then all of this won't have happened!" I said to Stacie. This is all her fault. She's the reason Alpha Antoine is no longer mine. "I know that you are sad after all that happened but that doesn't give you the right to hurt me. You don't get away with the things you've done to me just because he told you that he didn't want anything to do with you anymore. You already knew that he didn't have feelings for you Sophia. You knew....you knew that he was only with you because you saved his life and that is why you tried so hard to keep him. You already knew that
ETHAN'S POV "Do you see what you've caused Ethan? What do you even think that you are doing right now?! I've been trying for so long to get Alpha Antoine to stand by our pack and you had the guts to go offend him like this? I thought that you just took a maid from his pack but you actually took a maid that is his mate?! How are we going to fix this?" My dad yelled at me. I rolled my eyes and turned away from him. I don't care about him or the pack. The only thing that I could think about was Stacie. My dad has sworn that he did not send her away. I have no other choice than to believe him. So the only options here are that she actually did run away from me or someone took her away. And the only person who has any motive to kidnap her must be that bitch Sophia. She's the only one who will want to hurt Stacie. If Stacie ran away on her own, it's only a matter of time before she arrives back in Alpha Antoine's pack. If Sophia took her, then Stacie must be in some kind of danger
ETHAN'S POV I.....you don't know anything! You don't understand anything! It is all Stacie's fault! All of this won't be happening if she hadn't shown up here! " Sophia said. She was still crying. "Sophia, I don't fucking want to listen to your fake tears! Please just tell me where Stacie is right now. I'll come to pick her up myself so tell me where she is" I said. "She's gone! She's already gone! She escaped! I had no idea ...she just left!" I said. I knew immediately that Sophia was hiding something from me. There's no way that Sophia will let Stacie go as soon as she kidnaps her. A she-wolf as vindictive as Sophia will look for ways to make Stacie's life hell. She won't let Stacie walk away just like that. "I am going to ask you this again Sophia. What happened to Stacie?" I asked her. "She....she ran away. She left.! I thought that I already had her in a safe net and she'd never be able to get away from me but I was wrong. All that I wanted was to teach her a lesson
ETHAN'S POV "Fine! You want to be sure that I am not playing you? I'll tell you one important thing and then you'd come to save me okay? Stacie....she's the missing princess of your pack" "What? What did you just say?" I asked Sophia. "You heard me! I said that she's the princess of your pack! I know that you actually came to our pack to look for her but you got distracted because of Stacie. She's the princess you've been looking for! There's something else that I need to tell you. Something that you need to know but I am not going to say anything if you don't come get me right now. I have nothing more to lose anyway. I am going to die for sure if Alpha Antoine gets to me first. This might be the only chance that I have left to survive" Sophia said. She sounded resigned to her fate. "No... this can't be true...I asked her....she said she isn't....she said she was sold by her parents into slavery!" I remembered the countless times that I had tried to get Stacie to admit that s
ETHAN'S POV The next day, Sophia and I were sitting in the meeting room and she had a satisfied grin on her face. A grin that told me that she was happy to have won. At least she has a safe place to stay for now. She had arrived yesterday after one of my guards went to pick her up but she told me that she was just too tired to talk and that she was going to talk to me in the morning. I know that this was just a lie and that she was just bidding her time and trying to figure out what else she can get from me. "What did you say you wanted to tell me? I don't have all day to waste here with you" I told her without mincing words at all. "Are you really so impatient? You should prepare your mind. I was blown away when I first found out. I never thought that a maid like Stacie will ever have something like that but I guess you never know. My advice is that you should prepare yourself so that you don't pass out from what I am about to tell you" Sophia said. I rolled my eyes. "I do
STACIE'S POV I walked up to the palace with wobbly legs. I felt like my entire body was about to give up and I was going to end up fainting but I tried my best to keep holding on. I can't faint now...I am already here. I have to get inside the palace and let Alpha Antoine know that I am back before I faint. Escaping from the fire and knocking out Sophia had drained almost all of my energy. I still had to find my way here to the palace and it took me an entire day to do that. I was so tired and hungry. I just want to give up ...I am so tired... I knocked on the palace gate. There seemed to be a tighter security in the entire pack. I can see that it was worse in the palace. They were guards patrolling and they were guards stationed at the entrance obviously to keep anyone from entering. "I...I am Stacie....the Alpha's mate... please let me into the palace " I said to one of the guards who were at the gate. He gave me a long look and then scoffed. "If you are the Alpha's mate
STACIE'S POV "You have lost your mind! Get out of this place!" But I didn't give up. I can't give up. "I already told you that I am the Alpha's mate! What else do you want me to tell you? You are going to regret this I tell you! You'll definitely regret it! Nolan!" I continued to yell. Nolan finally heard me and turned to look at me. There was a confused look in his eyes, I think he did not notice me at first. But this only lasted for a few seconds He was sprinting to me almost immediately. "Stacie! How did you ...where did you....what's going on here?" He asked me. He seemed relieved. I could see the dark circles around his eyes. Clearly, Alpha Antoine is not the only one who has been putting enough effort into looking for me. "I escaped...I managed to escape but they don't recognize me and they have refused to let me in" I said. Nolan glared at the guards who were at the gate. They ducked their hand and avoided Nolan's eyes. They seemed to know that they are in a lot of
ANTOINE'S POV When Nolan told me that Stacie had arrived in the palace, I thought that he was joking. I had expended all of my energy to look for her in the past few days and I was starting to lose all hope of finding her any time soon but she actually came here on her own! I was so happy that I wanted to jump up and down in happiness. When I arrived in her room, she was already asleep. Clearly, she was tired. I didn't wake her up. I just sat by her side and watched her sleep. I was contended just watching her like that. It was as if I wanted to imprint the memory into my head, I didn't want to ever forget this at all. After a few hours, she woke up. Stacie smiled at me and I smiled back. Antoine ...I am so happy to he back right now. You don't know how much I've missed you. I thought that I was never going to see you in my life again. ..I was so scared ...I'm so happy to be back right now " she said. He pulled me into a hug. "I am so happy to have you back Stacie. Hope E
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
