JADE

I had never considered how hard wearing makeup, dressing up and getting your hair done was.

I have been attending social events for the past week and I can tell you one thing right now. It is exhausting as hell. And this is coming from someone who used to train every single day.

Tonight, we’re attending an event for one of dad’s business partners and also an alpha. He is art of the council so he is an important figure and I had to make the best impression. I’m cute sure I’ve met him before being the luna and all. But like I said, I never really paid attention to those things then.

A lot of people wanted to meet me. Apparently, dad’s pack was like one of the biggest and the most influential. And it was a big deal that I was here. I couldn’t understand why.

Last night as we were about leave, he’d asked me to turn the face of my locket. So the blood rhinestone was against my chest and the back was in the front. I couldn’t understood why but I had’t argued.

    ATLASI’ve fully gone back to work and Andrew has taken it upon himself to uncover whatever secret Ford might be hiding.It seemed too strange for him to want to come and clean his daughter. After what, almost twenty five years?He had the resources to find her and he could have if he wanted to. Much sooner than this.I knew how much power he had. I’d felt it. It wasn’t even fucking hard to read about it. So, if he wanted to find his daughter from an affair he hd years ago. He could have.He had the money, the time and the recourses. And it is not like Jade wasn’t registered. Dad made sure she got everything legally done and was put into the system when they moved here. So a simple medical search would have brought up anyone who had his DNA search.Either there really was something odd about his timing. Or I’m reaching so hard and unable to accept the truth.Well, at least I’m honest to accept that the two option could be true.I’m salty and pissed that he is trying to get Jade to be

    ATLAS Was trying to pick between heading to look for Brandon or going straight to the party. The look I’ll see on Jade’s face kept prompting me to go with the latter.Brandon will be here whenever I get back. It is not like he has much to do, besides sit and hate me. So, he can wait.I didn’t want to go with Damien, to be completely honest. But he is the one person that knows the location. I guess I just have to swallow my pride and hide my hatred for him.He wanted to get into the driver’s seat but I shook my head.“No way,”“I’m not going to fucking kill you. And I’m the one who knows the way.” He argued but I wasn’t having it.I’m not stupid enough to get into a car with my enemy behind the wheels. He may not look it but Damien is crazy as hell. And he wouldn’t mind crashing the car and almost killing himself, if it means, he would hurt me.He grumbles but steps out of car and moved to get into the passenger seat. I was even more paranoid, seeing how easily he gave in.He was up t

    JADEMy attention since I got here has been very sharp. I could feel when someone was looking at me, I paid more attention to people and I could never be caught in an unexpected situation or while making a face. So I was especially very aware of the picture taking pictures of me.There was no way I would have missed when he entered the hall. The fact that he didn’t even bother tying to hide the fact that he was staring at me made it worse.Damn it. The last thing I wanted was more people on my neck about who I was with. It sucked that I couldn’t well scream to the world that I hated all men. That would start a scandal I didn’t want to deal with. I had to force myself to hold that urge down.A lot of people were looking for the littlest things that would make them dig into my life. I’ve seen their comments on social media and it was surprising how entitled people felt to know about my life.Apparently, privacy is a foreign concept to them. They want to know what I’m doing. Who I’m with

    ATLASI watched the sunrise, failing to see the beauty hope always spoke of. I couldn’t feel the hope nor the positivity that they said followed a brand new day.Isn’t that what they always said to us? Go to bed. You’ll feel better in the morning.Well, I waited till morning and I still felt like shit.Or maybe, it was because I was’t technically in a bed. I’d stayed all night in the cramped hospital chair. And it was uncomfortable as fuck. To say the least.I wish I could say my bitter mood had to do with the fact that I lost my child.I really wish I could say it was that. But deep down, I knew the damned pictures I saw when I went through one of those gossip pages was the real reason I was so pissed.And yes, I’ve become obsessed with them. Checking them every second of everyday to see if they posted a new update on Jade. And they almost always have something new to report.Jade was the dictionary definition of booked and busy. She had events to attend. Places to go and people to m

    JADEEverything that happened last night, mostly Damien’s presence ad him mentioning Atlas, ruined the entire evening for me.I understood the whole, ‘don’t let anyone get in the way of your peace’ thing but it was still annoying as hell.Dad, being amazing as he was, noticed how I was’t really in the mood to socialise and he asked if I wanted to leave early. I took the invitation so fast that he laughed. He said the necessary goodbyes and then we were on our way.He didn’t ask why I was acting that way he’d only pecked me on the forehead goodnight when he went up with me to my apartment. Then he said he hopes I will feel better in the morning.Could I really ask for abetter dad? He was understanding and loving and very attentive. I was almost in my mid twenties but I couldn’t help the childlike giddiness that always fills me when he is near.It reminded me of the excitement children felt when they saw their father at home. Or they heard the doorbells which usually meant he was back f

    JADEI have nowhere today. I really couldn’t even explain how happy that made.Trust me, the glitz and glam life may look like a dream from a different POV. But it really ins’t all that when you’re living in it.Ray had taken it upon herself to take care of my calendar for me and send ‘thank you but I can’t come’ messages to people. I really don’t know what I would do without her even if I don’t explicitly say it to her face.We stayed in bed and just wasted the whole day away. I wish I could say my mind as free of thoughts but it kept going back to Atlas and Damien. What was he doing here? trying to defend Atlas of all people?I thought they hated each other. Well, I didn’t know that but the way they had covered the other day proved as much.All these thoughts were making me feel sick.“What are you thinking about?” Ray who was cuddled up to the demonic black cat asked me.Both their heads were turned towards me and he looked as inquisitive as she did. I swore he could understand and

    JADEThis may not be my best elder sister moment but I was glad when Ray told me about the boy she was seeing. Because it distracted me from thoughts of my ex who isn’t really my ex and my ex friend who I thought was my friend. Not the easiest life.The most important thing I had to know was how old he was. If he had access to get her a pass, then he must be a few years older than her.He was only seventeen. Thankfully. But he was the son of one of dad’s enemies.“Well, not enemy per se but they really don’t like each other. And dad would refuse to attend an event if he heard the man was going.” She winced after saying the last word, like it hurt her just to say it out loud.I couldn’t close my mouth after hearing al of that. One part of me wanted to tease her and call her Romeo and Juliet. But something told me it wasn’t the right time. And that book ended in tragedy.“And you both have been seeing each other for how long?” I tipped my head the side, watching her as she spoke.“A few

    JADEAfter telling myself I didn’t like him for the tenth time, I got the sense to offer him a seat. Which he took.I knew my apartment was big. Big as hell, but when he sat in just one of the couches, it was like the air in the room had been sucked in. He filled up the place and the chair. Not with his body but his preface. He had a powerful aura and I had a feeling, I would have submitted to him easily if it wasn’t because of something that was drawing me back.What that is, I couldn’t tell.“How was the party last night? I couldn’t make it.” I didn’t know what he came up to but I didn’t expect that.It took me a few seconds to think of a response. He was just trying to make conversation while I sat staring at him awkwardly.“Oh, it was okay.” I replied, forcing a kind welcoming smile.He made me nervous. And it was’t exactly in a bad way so I had no idea what to do with myself.“You looked breathtaking. I couldn’t believe I missed it.” He said with a chuckle.I couldn’t tell if he

    JADE“i needed to come see him.”“Why?” He collected the baby from me “I told you that there's no need to. Why do you feel the need to come here even after I told you not to?!”“Because it's not just your victory! It's not just your life that he was after! It's mine too! And it's Ray's too! So yes, I needed to come down here to get closure.”He needed to understand that this meant something to me too, just as it did him.“Closure? Is that why you put the baby at risk? How much more closure do you need?”What on earth was he talking about?“Risk? Incase you didn't notice, I was there with him! I was at risk too! I needed him to look me in the eye and tell me why he did what he did to my family.”“Or maybe it's because you're too hung up on the past and you just can't let go. Incase you havent noticed, you're so stuck in the past and you are obsessing over it. Move on!”Well, I'm glad he finally got to say what he wanted to. Now I know how he feels about me trying to find answers. I w

    JADEI didn't think it was worth it at first. Going to see the man that had made me grow up without parents and without the concept of what a true family felt like.But after much thought, he needed to know that all his plans failed and I was going to rub it in his face..I'd gotten all three pieces of the stone together and wore it around my locket.It would hurt him so bad to see that in the end, I won.Iniko decided that that was the right moment to start crying and everytime I dropped him back in his cot, he cried even louder.“Young man, what is it that you want? You've been fed and burped and I just changed your diaper so there's no way you could have soiled it again -”I stopped and remembered what happened yesterday so I took a peak for myself. There was nothing im his diaper.“So what exactly do you want?”I wish babies could talk.I guess I didn't have any other choice than to take him with me then. Atlas would blow a fuse if he found out that I took his son to see Ford.Whe

    ATLAS“By wasting any more time, we are not doing ourselves any good! Sixth Circle pack is vacant. We have their leader in our custody and I've taken down every opposition in our way, do you think it would be long before we get more interests?”Sometimes, having a cabinet infuriates me so much. It was like I was speaking to brick walls. I didn't see any reason why they couldn't just agree to me taking over the Sixth Circle.It would even be better for us because it would improve our army base, it would make our pack bigger and in general, it would be a plus for us.But they weren't seeing it that way. All they were seeing was the fact that Ford had committed something against the pack and they weren't going to take it.I mean, what better way to teach him a lesson by taking over his pack?“Alpha, we're not disputing the fact that you've gone a long way-”“But you're diminishing my efforts. What's the whole point of defeating him and taking him into custody when I can't even go ahead a

    JADERay and I weren't speaking for now.How could she hide something like that from me?“Where is she?”“I have no idea. All I know is that she ran away when we were little. She knew that he would come after her and she didn't want to put you in danger. So she ran away and left your nanny to take care of you. I don't know where she is.”How could she do this?“Before I lost my memory, did I know?”“No, you never knew.”I couldn't believe this. I lost my appetite for the rest of that day and I just stayed in Iniko's room because I couldn't even speak to anyone right now.I'd spent my life thinking my mother was dead only to hear that she was alive and she ran away because of that beast.“It’s not her fault, you know. Your mother ran away to protect you and Ray didn't tell you because she wanted to keep you safe. You have to forgive her.”I didn't blame her. It wasn't her fault things turned out like this. I was just hurt that I didn't know.Later that day, I took Iniko on a walk so h

    JADEI was just realizing that this baby has Atlas's eyes and hair and everything!“This baby is rigged.”He turned around in shock.“What are you talking about?”“You did something to make the baby look like you.”He laughed and shook his head.“No, I didn't. It's just a coincidence.”“Coincidence? Look at this baby and look at you. It seems like I didn't even have anything to do with his birth.”“Don’t worry, you can have the second baby.”I scoffed.“You think I'm going to let you have another chance to have photocopies? Big joke.”Iniko was so small and he seemed so fragile.Ray brought my food and she took him while I ate.“I wish my grandmother was here to see him.”She gave me a sad smile.“Me too. She would be so proud of you.I'm proud of you.”I'm so happy my sister was here with me. She was the one who had been by my side throughout and if the child had been a girl, I would have named her after Raya.“Thank you for everything you did. If not for you, I don't know how I would

    JADE“I'm going to need your blood as well. Atlas, I promise it won't hurt her. Just a little nick.”He nodded and she dragged the knife across my finger.“Place your finger over the stone and let the blood cover it entirely. Do not take your hand away from the fire.”It was a simple instruction but it seemed so intense.It was almost over. My legs were beginning to feel well and it was getting harder to quiet my screams.“What do we have here?”That voice. He was here.“What are you doing here?”All I had to do was keep my hand over the fire until the stone bled.Ray helped me stand up straight while Atlas and Andrew faced my uncle.“So this was why I came here. How did you do that? How did you call the other stones?”I eventually removed my hand from the fire since we had found them.“I always knew it was with one of you. That stupid old hag told me she couldn't find the other piece but I guess she gave it to you. “Why were all the worst things happening tonight?I was in labor and

    JADEAtlas returned later that evening.I was right with what I'd thought.“What have you been up to?”I knew he knew I'd been eating because of the smirk on his face.“You know you don't have to hide from me when you eat right?”Oh, I did.“If you see how much I eat and the way I eat, I don't think you'd want to be married to me anymore.”He burst out laughing.“What makes you think I care about the way you eat? As long as you're healthy and our baby is fine, I don't care.”“But then, what if I get fat? I'll be so big that I won't be able to eat. I don't know why I eat so much.”This was actually a worry of mine. Normally, I ate but my appetite was not this big.“Blame it on the baby. I figure when you give birth, the cravings will stop and even though you do get fat, you're still my wife. It doesn't change anything.”I was really married to the best man ever, wasn't I?“You’re the best.”“I know. Ray says that we have to get there before midnight so that she can prepare everything.

    JADEAt this point, I was realizing that the earlier we did things, the better.“I’ll arrange for the sacrifice to happen tomorrow. We need to move as fast as we can before he gets Intel that were here.”I didn't want to have to run with this big belly of mine.“What are you going to need?”“Don’t worry, I'll take care of it. Just bring the stone.”We went to bed that night because we were all completely exhausted.“Hey, are you okay?” Atlas asked when we were in bed.“Yes, I am. Why do you ask?”“You didn't cry when you found out that he killed your father. You didn't cry when you found out that she was not your grandmother. I'm worried.”Now that I think about it, it's true. But it was because I didn't feel like crying.“I don't know. Maybe my body just hasn't proceses it yet. Maybe its because I hate him so I'm not bothered that he's not my father and I never really knew my father so i can't cry for him. I've already mourned for my grandmother.”I just didn't feel the need to cry b

    JADE“Jade, step away from that.”I walked back towards them and stared at the pile.“What kind of animal would do this?”I had no idea but I think I was beginning to understand why she wanted us to find this place.This place held secrets.I went back to the wall to look at the drawings and try to understand them.I used my fingers to trace them again and this time around, I heard the voice clearer.“Look at the bigger picture.”I stepped away from the wall so I could see the entire thing. There were more drawings to the side and when I walked up, I noticed that there was a sign at the bottom of it.That sign…looked all too familiar but I couldn't just place my finger.“Ray, come see this. I've seen this before but I don't know where it's from.”She crouched beside me and stared at it for a moment.“I know it's familiar but I don't know where it's from, either.”Andrew and Atlas joined us and just within seconds, they knew.“We know.”They shared a look and it made me scared.“Jade,
