Chapter 14: The Beast Within CHARLES POV I plugged the chain around Carson's neck and pulled it with force, dragging it. I spin him around, using him as a dodging object towards his warriors who tried to attack me. My accomplice ran over them and smashed them on the ground. “We need to be fast. "It appears that more of his men are coming." He said it in a low murmur. All I needed to do was kill Carson, and that would be the end. There were five of us in the passage room. My accomplice and I were joined by Carson, Cole, and his wife, who was now pointing the blade in his hands in my direction.I turned around immediately, dodging the blade that had almost hit Carson's face, which he was smart enough to dodge. I mindlink my accomplice. I instructed him to brave the cold while he reports to the others to check if they have brought another car. After Ander drives the iris with the one we brought for the mission,“Were you thinking I would be merciful to you?” My voice was laced with a
Chapter 15: Brothers Saga IRIS POVMy eyes slit open, being welcomed by the ray of the sun, which hit my face instantly, making my vision blurry for a moment. The next thing that hit me was the smell of medicine. Unable to recognise my environment, I stood up immediately, trying to recall myself and how I got here. My eyes sighted someone seated on the chair close to the bed I had slept in. I recognise this place. It was said to be Charles' special ward, where he gets treated whenever he is sick.I was unable to see the person properly because his face was buried in his hands, which he had wrapped around. He seems to be thinking that he/she didn't notice my movements. Suddenly, the person raised his hands to look at me. My heart skipped when I realised who the person was. It was Ander. Charles' brother. He ran together with me and pulled me in a tight hug, his heart panting. His breath was laboured, which got me wondering what had happened and why he was behaving this way. His eye
Chapter 16: Betrayal IRIS POV When Charles walked in, I pretended to be asleep and didn't make a sound. Just to hear about what they will discuss. But unfortunately, I couldn't keep up with my plans. My plans to keep quiet and act like someone who was asleep all shattered when they started shouting at each other, and now they were fighting.Fighting like a little child who was arguing over a serious object. Fearing Charles might wound Ander badly if they aren't stopped, I sat on the edge of the bed. Looking at them. The moment they saw me, they stopped fighting immediately and turned to look at me. “How are you doing? How are you feeling now?” Excitement thrilled over Charles as he asked me that question with a smile. Which I ignored with an evil gaze. “You'all should leave!! Please!!” I half yelled at them. Realising they were drowning my energy with their noises.“I need some time alone. Please leave!!!” I stated, my voice firm and steady. Trying not to sound rude. “I'm glad you
Chapter 1 : BREAKING FREE IRIS I sprang out of bed the moment I felt cold liquid pouring onto my body. My eyes locked with those of Luna Caroline, my master, the one who bought me and brought me back to this pack. Her eyes were terrifying, scaring the hell out of me. I quickly knelt down and bowed my head in obeisance, trying to soften her anger. “Good morning, ma'am!” Raising my head to look at her, I received a thunder slap across my face. Instantly, tears pricked my eyes and threatened to fall, but I gulped them down like a pill. They must not come out. I must not show my weakness to her. “I’m so sorry, ma'am. Please spare me.” This was her way of waking me up every morning if she got up before me. Her way of reminding me that she brought me here as a slave and maid rather than as a family member who could sleep peacefully without being disturbed. “Don’t let this happen again, Iris. I won’t hesitate to throw you out like an animal,” she uttered her usual words. With a s
Chapter 2: MATE IRIS Waves of excitement ran over my body as I began to hear the footsteps and sounds of them walking away one by one. Alpha Carson and Caroline had left for the mating ball, which was organised by them. But I was still worried about one person who hadn't left: Cole. He was still in the house; I could feel it. I knew he wouldn't have gone without hearing from me. And that's to tell you how much he cared about me. After a few seconds, I heard footsteps approaching, and I quickly detected them as Cole's by the sound. "Iris, are you there?" Just as I had thought, he was still around. "My father is gone now, so you can open your door and come outside. Don't forget to come to the mating ball; who knows, you could find your mate." He advised and retreated back, sensing that I had no plans to respond to him. Since he had been standing there for a few seconds before turning away, I felt relieved the moment I heard the sound of the living room door being shut. "He
Chapter 3: REJECTED AND ACCEPTED CHARLES Right in my presence, my father declared his intention for the next Alpha position. He made a rule that whoever found his mate first, between me and my brother would be the next Alpha and the coronation will take place in five months as long as one of us found our mate. Now I must say that's one of the most difficult tasks my father has given us. The first challenge he gave us was a war challenge to determine our strength and knowledge of handling things. At the end, I came out first and now this? What if my junior brother found his mate before me? I'm twenty_two years old and I haven't found my mate yet. Sometimes I just feel like I have been cursed. Most people find their mate at the age of sixteen and eighteen , and here I am, over twenty. Throughout the entire day, I was occupied with lots of thoughts and when the dusk was setting in, I decided to go for a walk. To cool my head before returning to the pack. The moment I stepped i
Chapter 4: DELUSION CHARLES I couldn't stand Cole maltreating her any further, so I had to teach him a lesson for insulting my mate right in my presence. I'm certain he didn't know I was Charles, Alpha Henry's first son. If not, he would have given me that respect. I had no choice but to accept iris. Even when I wanted to reject her, I couldn't; my wolf urged me to accept her, which I did and the next thing she did was fall down. She fainted right in my presence before I could even say a word to her. I understand she must have been so exhausted from everything that has happened. As a slave Omega, I bet , her life must have been a living hell. I knelt down, then touched her pulse which was still responding. I touched her heart and it seemed to be breathing slowly. I felt so relieved knowing she was Safe I placed her in my arms and took her home. When I got there,it was already late. There were two Gumma wolves at the border, which seemed to have been waiting for me. Because
Chapter 5: PROPOSAL CHARLES Her question left me dumbfounded and bewildered. Just when I had thought she was naive, she proved me wrong. She was smart enough to ask me those questions. “Since you demand to know the truth, then I shall tell you.” What's the point of keeping it away from her now? It's better to open and let her know my intentions. “I didn't pity you like the others. I only found you not worthy to be called my mate.” I corrected her on the part where she said I pitied her like other people, which was a spurious word. Just like you asked, “why did you accept me when you knew that I'm not at any of your level?” “That's because I have no choice but to accept your iris. My father made a rule between me and my brother that whoever found his mate first would become the next Alpha, and I don't want to lose…..” “So you're trying to say that, you'll use me for your own selfish benefit and when you're satisfied, you shall dumb me? ” She interrupted me with disappointmen

Chapter 13_ no one touch her IRIS POV My words came out rudely and loud but I didn't mind. I raise my hands up as a surrender, walking towards him. “Please let Luna Caroline go.” I uttered with so much confidence. “She has done nothing wrong. Let her go and you can have me,” in our midst, Cole walked in. Looking lost and perplexed “Father, what happened?” He questioned, his face brimming with shock. “ Why's mother here?” It seems like he figured it all out. “Your mother was protecting Iris,” his tone thunder with disdain. “I don't know the relationship they have that made her help her.” He kicked her on the stomach, making her wince in pain as she fell down. With a dangerous stare, he dragged roughly and abruptly, pulling me away but I couldn't let him do that. I removed his grip from mine and sat down immediately, to avoid him dragging me any further. Because I know the moment he successfully dragged me out of here, he would take advantage of me. “Why Carson?” Luna Caroline sp
Chapter 12: Fate CHARLES POV We've been searching for Iris for twelve hours now, and yet she hasn't been found. I should have given up on the search a long time ago, but with Ander's words and determination in finding her, I couldn't. He was persistent and determined in finding her, unlike me. Who just wanted to give up on her? We've searched all the neighborhood packs, and yet her scent couldn't be seen. “Where could she be? Do you think she really ran away?” The familiar voice murmured in my ears as I felt a touch on my shoulder. It was Ander. My brother. Our car was currently being reserved for our destination, Night Walker Pack. His face was filled with worry and sadness. Should I really be concerned about how he cares for my mate, or should I appreciate his affection and concern for her?“CRESCENT MOON PACK!!”My eyes blink continuously at the words I just utter. I didn't know how it came about, but my wolf urged me to say it. *CRESCENT MOON PACK!!”I screamed out again and su
Chapter 11: Dark magic IRIS POV Alpha Carson slammed his hands against my face, adding to the pain I was feeling. Why can't I be free? Why can't I live happily ever after like others? Why does my Life have to be a ball that is being played by everyone? “Oh moon goddess, why have you chosen to suffer me this way?” I murmured to myself, my voice inaudible as Cole carried me from the ground forcedly, like his father had instructed him. They carried me from the dungeon room, straight to Cole’s room. I was bothered why he didn't take me to his room, in order to tease him and make him more mad, I decided to question him. “Are you afraid your wife will catch us? Why didn't you take me to your room Hun?” I rasped in at them, my voice loud, laced with rudeness and raw hatred that could be felt. I was hoping Luna Caroline would see me. So she could rescue me from their evil plans “Ohh moon goddess, please let her be around.” I prayed silently, with my eyes closed. “Please let go of m
Chapter 10_ Their lust for her. IRIS POV When Charles agreed to the school arrangements, My heart was filled with happiness. Throughout the entire day, I was just dancing in joy. This is something I've always wanted. Something I've always wished to have. And now that it's here, I'm not gonna take it for granted. All my life, I have been an orphan, a destitute abandoned child who ended up being a slave with no access to education. And of course, I'm grateful to the moon goddess for granting me this knowledge I have till now. Even without receiving proper education. Later that day, Charles reported to me that he had sorted everything out concerning the school. And that increases my happiness more. Even if I end up not gaining anything from this contract, I'll be happy to know that I gained something valuable like this. Which is important to me than anything. The next day, I woke up very excited because I was going to start the course which I had registered for in the park sc
Chapter 9: Missing CHARLES POV A surge of pain erupted in my face as I clenched my teeth in anger. My hands were tightly fisted. My legs wobbled on the ground as waves of air flowed through my body. Tension and apprehension were all I felt as Ander's hands wrapped around my mate. Her bright smiles, capable of melting my heart in seconds, vanished the moment she laid eyes on me. Her eyes were sparkling with horror, and she was stunned. Iris removed his hands from hers. This wasn't the first time I had seen Ander with my mate. I often saw him bringing gifts for her before we had that conversation. It was that conversation that made me realise that, truly, he had plans for my mate. In infuriation, I scurried to where he was. My hands fisted together as the urge to punch him surged through me. An evil smile lingered on his face as usual. “You're overrated right now. Relax, Charles!” For a moment, ,I wondered if he was really my sibling or my half brother because I couldn't c
Chapter 8_ Ander CHARLES POV I had to push her away and walk off when I realized I couldn't control my feelings around her. Our bond was strong, and if I didn't exercise self_control, I might have done something I would reject later. She was a Virgin, and I don't intend to be intimate with her without her consent. I feared I might trigger hurtful memories from her time in the crescent moon pack. When I returned to the family dinner, I found them rounding up. The room fell silent and their movements ceased the moment they saw me I needed to address them on a particular issues which I've disrupt my peace. Especially Catherine, my father sex toy who feels like she can engage herself in some conversations that didn't intrude her She also likes puking her nose in other people's business. She feels she owns a special place in my father's heart. Unfortunately I don't see that way. She was just a mistress. Already assuming the role of a wife “Did you forget something?” my young
