Tessa’s/Jessica’s POV

Love. Could someone tell me what that was? Was it synonymous with mate bonds? The pull? Because if it was… I didn’t know how to explain what I was feeling right now.

For three years, I trained and trained until I sweated with blood. I put everything I had on the table to be as strong as I was today—different from the Tessa everyone knew before.

Yet, one look from him brought chills to my spine. One word from him, and I was drawn into following his command. One move, and I froze.

After one ridiculous teasing and a kiss, I froze. The entire world seemed to have stopped, and my heart stopped beating.

Fuck!

All I could do was curse in my mind as I felt his arm pulling me closer to him until our bodies leaned on each other. His lips were nibbling mine, and I swooned, completely closing my eyes, intoxicated by the dopamine coursing through every nerve of mine.

His lips mashed into mine like a hungry predator that couldn’t get enough of its prey. My breathing became rag

    Jessica’s POVAlthough Anastasha would act like a bitch most of the time, we all knew that it was just her mask to protect her fragile heart. After the tragedy she experienced before, being betrayed by her own mate who killed her entire pack, I salute her for being so strong and brave.Despite that, she could still love and express it.“Just because she wasn’t whining or being dramatic like most girls doesn’t mean she isn’t hurting,” I told Wendell.He leaned back on his chair. “She isn’t serious. She’s just being like that to cope with everything.”I huffed and looked at him in disbelief. Shaking my head, I affirmed Anastasha’s earlier words. “She’s right. You have a heart of stone.”“Enough of that! Why did you come here?”I squinted my eyes and walked toward the sofa, sitting on it. He’s definitely avoiding the topic.Because of his usual stoic facial expression, even though I’ve been serving with him for three years, I still couldn’t read him enough to know whether he had feelings

    Jessica’s POVThree years agoI woke up from the coldness that touched my skin. Moaning in pain that’s radiating all over my body, I slowly opened my eyes.It's been three days since the White Clan found me. Because I didn’t have my wolf yet, my healing process from thee beatings and the impact on the water was still almost fresh in my body and I’ve been on bed rest since then.“Don’t move, you’ll reap open your stitches.” I heard that she’s Anastasha and that she’s the best tracker in the group.Because she’s also the only woman in the clan, she’s the one who has been taking care of me. Although she seemed distant and was acting a bit of a bitch, I could feel that she actually cared more than she let on.“I…” I tried to speak but instead of words, all that came out of my lips was moaning as I felt the bruises on my body.She raised her eyebrow at me, finishing re-dresing my wounds. Standing up, she said, “Do us both a favor and don’t try to speak if you still can’t handle it.”‘And t

    Zane's POVLeaning on my wooden desk, I stared at the closing door, where Tessa's figure slowly vanished, wondering how on earth she could have so much effect on me while…“Did you hear what that bitch said to me?”I slowly shifted my gaze to Morgan. She was fuming mad. Her cheeks were puffed, her eyes were sending lasers, and she pointed a finger at where Tessa was earlier.For three years, she stayed in this pack, and I let her. But with all those years, she never had the same effect as Tessa had on me. She couldn't make me feel excited or eager to pull her close to me.Seeing her only makes me more annoyed than ever."Zane! Are you hearing me?" Morgan snapped her fingers at me, looking at me with blame."Why are you here?" I impatiently asked before turning around and going back to my work.It's better for me to drown myself in work before I lose control and run after Tessa… Jessica…'How could you change so my, Tess?' That question kept bothering me, but she was right.She's not u

    Jessica's POVFury and disappointment surged all over me while I watched Alpha Ralph slowly vanish from my eyes.One inch! My arm was outstretched in the air and just one inch away from gasping his hand, but I still failed.I never felt more disappointed and blameful toward myself right now than ever.My chest rose and fell heavily as I looked down on the cliff, which was covered with mist below. I vowed, "I'll find you, Alpha Ralph, and once I do, I'll make sure you pay for everything you did.""Great, just what I needed," I commented after turning around and finding about ten members of Silver Rogues surrounding me.At least I got someone I could vent all the fuming rage building up on me.Stretching my neck, I swiveled my Scimitars and pointed at them. "What are you here for?"They still had their masks on, hiding their face. Looking at each other, they nodded, and I knew instantly that talking with them would be a waste of time.Most of them pulled out knives or swords. Still, the

    Zane’s POV“Who is that?” That was my first question when I arrived downstairs and had a vivid vision of who Tyrone was carrying.It turned out to be a Rogue who was almost on the brink of death.My brows furrowed. “What happened? And where’s Te—Jessica?”I looked around but couldn't see her, which only added to my fast-beating heart's worry, especially when I realized there were only three.Hansel, who was usually with Jess, was not here, and so was Anastasha, who was not only a tracker but also the one who gave them first aid.Did something happen to her? Was it bad?“Bring him to the torture room.” Wendell gestured for Tyrone to move forward, and he did so without glancing at me. Lyndon followed him.I followed them with my eyes as anxiety rose in me. Lyndon was the goofiest one among them. But now, he looked extremely serious and cold, like an invincible fire was surrounding him.Even the Omegas lurking around felt the blazing fire of fury radiating around him as they hastily move

    Zane’s POVMy steps halted when I heard Wendell’s dictative voice. Though the White Clan hadn’t been here long, I observed them long enough to know how they roll.Despite their ranks, they all respect each other and rarely pull ranks on each other. They were more of a family. But right now, Wendell’s voice was so deep and full, laced with a threatening roar.He wasn’t asking. He’s demanding an answer.His voice greatly affected them, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. The other White Clan members stood still in silence.Anastasha looked down at the ground while fisting her hand into a ball so tight that blood started dripping from her palms as her long nails embedded in her skin.Shifting my head just a little bit to pick, I watched them in the shadows.Wendell stepped forward, his face only two inches away from Anastasha. She tried to shift her head away, but he only leaned closer to her, leaving her no room to move.“Speak!” he shouted.“I can’t… I promised her.”By this time, Ana

    Jessica’s POVI stirred on the hard bed, trying to get up from my sleep - or so I thought…As soon as I tried to get up, I felt the stings cursing through my body. My eyelids were heavy, and I couldn’t help the moan that escaped my lips as I forced my body to make some shift in position.“What the—" I gasped as I opened my eyes, greeted by the blinding light and white ceiling above me.Furrowing my brows, I blinked a couple of times and tried to re-adjust my vision.“Jess! Are you okay? How are you feeling? Does anything hurt?” I heard a thousand questions bombarding me, but all of their words seemed muffled in my mind, and I was not yet fully adjusted to my surroundings.I raised my arm and held my head as a scrutinizing pain blew my mind, and all the information of what happened rushed through me. Then, fumes of madness boiled through my veins as I remembered how Alpha Ralph was almost within my reach and still managed to escape.“Anastasha… He… I…” I tried to reach for Anastasha an

    Zane’s POVIn the end, I couldn’t do anything. After all, no matter how much I wanted to stop her from her recklessness, I couldn’t push too much as she was no longer under my wings.“It started as a game. You treated her as a toy. Did it become so real now?” my wolf teased, but that question completely caught me off guard.I brushed him off in annoyance and went back to my office with annoyance.To my surprise, as soon as I woke up the following day, I learned that Jess was already starting her training again, as if she wasn’t unconscious in the clinic yesterday.My heart clenched with a mixture of many emotions I couldn’t understand – fear, worry, annoyance, frustration, and so many more. I was leaning against one of the trees and staring at her training with the other White Clans.She’s sparring fiercely with Tyrone, and I must admit that her sharp and precise attacks were admirable.I crossed my arms over my shoulders as I kept my focus on her, watching her every breath of exhaust

    Ralph’s POVI sat down in the wooden chair inside my cabin in the middle of the Sahdowpine Wood, a huge smirk on my face. My fingers tap the armrest of my chair, and I lean back cosily. I imagined the grimace on Zane and Tessa's faces right now.“Alpha, we managed to cause significant fatalities on those patrolling around our borders,” one of the Rogues said, which brightened my mood even better.Joyful laughter immediately escaped my lips as I waved my hand to dismiss him.Standing up, I stood beside the window and looked far to the forest as I watched the Rogues training hard and completely wrapped around my fingers.When Zane came to ambush my pack and bring it to ruin, I was rage-filled, especially when Tessa escaped from me.Remembering those moments was enough to make my blood boil once again. Without control, I slammed my fist on the window sill, causing the wooden frame of my window to crack, but I couldn’t care less.“Alpha, is everything alright?” Some of the Rogues immediat

    Jessica’s POVMy heart raced in an incredible beat as I watched him struggle to breathe properly from shock.Bending down a bit, I grabbed his arm and guided him to stand up properly. Looking at him in the eyes, I remained calm and guided him to breathe. “Take a deep breath and exhale.”He nodded his head and momentarily closed his eyes to calm his nerves.“Yes, just like that,” I added when I saw him taking deep breaths.As he started calming down, I let go of him and let him take his time.Opening his eyes, he sighed, swallowed the lump in his throat, and pantingly said, “They hit us hard…”My eyes narrowed. They? Did he mean the Rogues and Ralph?He shook his head in disbelief before continuing, “They are too organised for Rogues. They moved strategically. We were with some warriors who were doing patrols while we rechecked our tracking, but they ambushed us on the northern border.”“What?” I asked in shock before worry crept into me. “What’s the casualty? Did we lose a lot of warr

    Jessica’s POVMy breathing hitched, and my heart went into shock. His scent drowned me, and his touches made me freeze.“I… I…” I closed my eyes and silently cursed myself. I couldn’t even form a reply without stuttering and feeling blank.Pulling away a little bit from me, which gave me room to breathe from all the tension between us, he kept his eagle-like eyes on me while his hands remained on my neck with his thumb on my cheek.“What?” he asked in a deep and demanding voice. Before, I would have easily pushed him away, but I was too tense to respond properly with how close he was.Hence, from the pressure he was giving me, my mind completely shut off, and before I knew it, I was blurting out the words I shouldn’t have ever said, “He’s gay.”As soon as I said that, my eyes widened, and I pursed my lips close in shock. Though it wasn’t secret that Hansel was gay, it wasn’t my business to spread it out either.“What?” Zane asked, almost as shocked as I was from what he heard.Taking

    Jessica’s POVThe room instantly fell into a deafening silence from my outburst, increasing the tension around us as I was seemingly the only one who would dare to snap at the kingdom’s king.The others were looking at each other, weighing the room’s atmosphere, but couldn’t find a way to break the silence.Seeing as he was probably the only one in the same position who could break the tension, Wendell cleared his throat to grab our attention and spoke with authority, “We’ll increase the warriors patrolling near the Shadowpine Woods for now. If Ralph tries anything, I’m sure we’ll know.”Ralph…Hearing his name suddenly brought back a memory within me, and that chilling feeling I had when I was on the border of the Red Wood Pack earlier suddenly rushed back to me.I was lost in my own thoughts and was looking into oblivion until I felt a heavy tap on my shoulder that almost felt like a push tap, bringing me back to reality.“What?” I snapped at Hansel, but he didn’t feel the same unfa

    Jessica’s POV“Yeah, right.” I merely rolled my eyes as a reply to Eric and walked past him to hide the redness that crept to my cheeks in disguise of hurrying to the meeting room to discuss my encounter with Eric.However, just after a few steps, I heard his heavy footsteps and long strides that followed me in a hurry, managing to grab my wrist to a halt. “You’re not harm, right?”I kept my back facing him, still not confident that my flashed face wouldn’t fail me and show how hard my heart was pounding right now with how much worry and care was vividly plastered on his face.“I came back as how I left, King Zane. Don’t underestimate me,” I replied in a faint voice as I pulled my arms away from him.“I never did…” I heard him reply in a low voice as I retreated, bringing a smile to my face.However, as soon as I turned the knob of the meeting room and entered, all my emotions were swept away to the back of my mind, and seriousness filled me while I walked in and slammed myself down o

    Jessica’s POV“I’ll give you until dawn. I'm coming for you if you’re not back by then.”I dumbfoundedly stood by my room’s doorway, watching Zane storm out with conviction. Staring at his retreating, I involuntarily raised my hand and touched my pounding heart.Later, a smile formed on my lips, and I closed my door completely before turning to change my clothes.Since I wanted Eric to think I was still the same weakling he knew me as before, I rampaged through my wardrobe and found the most.A smile formed on my lips as I found the perfect piece. I changed into a white, innocent-looking box collar dress and paired it with black rubber shoes while tying my hair in a simple, messy bun.When I came out of my room, I heard the door next to mine open and involuntarily swallowed Zane’s dimmed expression as he closed his door and stared at me blankly.He’s wearing combat clothes – camouflage pants, a black shirt with a leather jacket, and tactical boots. With that menacing look on his face

    Jessica’s POVI turned so fast and glared at Morgan, “How do you know about it? How did you know that it's right next to the Red Wood Pack?”My mind was in turmoil out of shock from what I discovered and annoyance that Morgan knew about it and didn’t state it properly earlier.She shrugged and mockingly replied, “Well, you didn’t seem to appreciate my contribution, so I just kept silent.”I wanted to punch the life out of her because she and I both knew that she just did it to spite me.“Wait, so it’s on their border. Why? Is that something we should take into account?” Wendell asked, stepping between Morgan and I.Closing my eyes, I took a couple of deep breaths and heaved a sigh.“Because that’s Eric’s pack. My… fated mate’s pack. The one who rejected me and sold me to Zane.”My fist automatically clenched in anger as I was reminded of those days – the days I was treated as a maid and a mistress. The day I was sold like an item.I could still remember running into that forest every t

    Jessica’s POVAfter the heated meeting earlier, I decided to blow off some steam and go around the kingdom’s perimeter to run a random patrol check.Since none had yet to be decided, I didn’t find any great reason why I should stay there longer.However, I was just about to finally calm down and let all my anger subside when I smelled that familiar scent and felt that familiar demeanor approaching me.I didn’t say anything, and he didn’t either. We just walked together in silence until, after a few minutes, I finally broke it and asked what had been bothering me since earlier.“If she’s your ex, why is she still around?” I almost slapped my own forehead after that. Though it sounded casual, I couldn’t help but worry that he might think I was jealous. Which I wasn’t.Or was I?I was still in conflict with myself when Zane suddenly stopped and looked at me hesitantly. He explained, “Morgan has… some trouble, so she has to stay.”His eyes widened as he immediately added, “She’s not a thr

    Jessica’s POVI woke up feeling alive early in the morning as I rushed to the meeting room. I was the first to arrive, vividly waiting for the tracker’s reports with my back on my seat and my fingers expectantly tapping on the table to pass the time.“You’re early.” Zane arrived with two coffees in hand.I narrowed my eyes as he approached me and handed me the other one, which was my favorite. Reluctantly, I accepted it and took a sip while keeping my eyes on him as he sat beside me.“So are you,” I replied, putting my cup down and nodding toward the clock.The meeting wouldn’t start until half an hour, and he usually arrived either on the dot or five minutes later. His impatience caused him to want everyone to be here already and not waste any of his time.“I thought you’d be early and bring your coffee. But if I knew you would be this early, I would have come earlier,” he uttered without batting an eye.I blinked a couple of times, feeling my heart pumping incredibly fast in my ches
