I cautiously paused and looked at Helene and was a little taken aback to see her smiling at me as a man next to her was gawking right at me, as if I had a sin that he could see in my face.

The man had features unlike anything I had ever seen. He had blank eyes, pale complexion, and emotionless expression. He had a colder stare than Jaxon had, and I wasn't sure why it made me feel uneasy and a little apprehensive that he might perhaps wasn't just another common wolf.

After giving him my full attention, I came to the conclusion that aside from Helene's skin tone and hair length, they essentially looked the same.

There was no doubt that they were twins.

When I focused again on Helene, I realized that she was waiting for my response. I couldn't even open my mouth because I couldn't bring myself to relax. I wouldn't be able to respond to her query if it weren't for the hands that slid around my waist and the one that held my hand and massaged my fingers to calm me down.

    We remained inside the stopped car when we arrived at the pack house. Meanwhile, Jaxon was silent and his eyes were shut so tightly that it looked as though he may burst into flames if he opened them. On the other hand, I stopped talking out of concern that he could direct his rage towards me. However, the Alpha King's final words to Jaxon continued to play with me after a few minutes had passed, stirring my dormant curiosity. I slowly called out to Jaxon, fidgeting with my fingers, "Ahm... Jaxon, what did Alpha Zeus mean earlier about your parents?" I covertly glanced up to observe his reaction, but I saw that he was still massaging his eyes while they were closed. "Why do you need to know?" I bit the bottom of my lip but was still determined, "Because I don't know anything about you. And this is the first time anyone has mentioned about them." Instead of getting angry, he straightened up and laid down on my lap. Then, he buried his face in my stomach and hugged me very tightly

    *cough* cough* cough*I was coughing for a week now, after admitting to Jaxon how my heart truly felt on that stormy night. The next day, I developed a fever, but I didn't alert him. Although I was feeling a little better now, I was still suffering from chills and runny noses, as well as a cough that felt like it would to tear my lungs out.Now that he visited “OUR” room after a week of not coming out, I couldn’t hide it anymore. “Why you didn’t tell me? I could’ve asked the doctor and have a quick scanned to you.”“I told you, stop making a big deal out of it. I’m really fine.”He glanced at me intently as if he was trying to figure out whether I was telling the truth. At the end, he could only sigh when he saw no trace of deception in my eyes. Latterly, he said his last retort. “It is impossible for me to be mistaken because Black can trace every feelings you are feeling. Even you’re wolf-less, you are connected to me. “Your sweet fragrance slowly fading, significance of your weakne

    I stopped moving, as did Jaxon, and we both appeared oblivious to what Uriel said. Jaxon, however, was the first to regain his composure a split second later.He hastily straightened his clothes and pants before opening the door while facing away from me. I, on the other hand, wrapped a quilt around my body before getting out of bed and looked for clothes.As I got down, I almost tripped. My mind was racing for a reason as to where Morgan was when the door closed and Jaxon dashed out the door with Uriel. The fact that I didn't overhear any of their conversation but only their departure scared me the most.Trembling, I grabbed a thin pair of pajamas with a moon motif because that was the first thing that caught my attention, didn't think twice about putting it on, and raced out of the room.If Morgan was accompanied by numerous servants, how could he vanish? The sky was still high, the sun was still cruel, and there were undoubtedly numerous soldiers at each end of the territory's bord

    "Pale man?" The individual I addressed right now was perplexed as to why I called him by a name that perhaps no one had ever called him. I simply bit the lower of my lip since even I never imagined being able to refer to him by such moniker. To get away, I diverted the conversation. I focused on Morgan, who was pulling the hem of Veron's shirt. There was no disputing that he had a lost child's stance— bruised knees, stained white clothing, and a wet face from crying. The heavy iron that had been coursing through my chest vanished when I turned to look at his face once more. My icy brain that had been empty since earlier had also cooled down. "It's only luck that can be taken into account that he didn't continue his stroll into the perilous woodland. I heard him sobbing earlier today as we entered the fence." I agreed with him by nodding and headed in their direction. As I arrived in their spot, he was the first person I turned to look at. "I am beyond grateful to show you my grat

    Jaxon's Point of View"Watch out, Veronica!"As the piercing arrow slowly swept through her flesh chest, it gave me a stark feeling. I was able to discern out very clearly how the thick blood trickled as though the droplets were impatiently descending on the ground.As a result of the impediment, the atmosphere around me slowed down, and the distance that separated the two of us appeared to be getting closer. The gradual collapse of her figure seemed to be proceeding in reverse time. And before I had time to process what was occurring, an arm reached out and grabbed her before her body had a chance to fall to the ground entirely."What the frack are you doing? Move! You f*cking idiot!" I was jolted awake by Veron's thunderous shriek.My eyes widened as the events surrounding Veronica flooded my mind. Plus, I caught the fragrance of the rogues that were around as I turned to examine where the arrow had come from. When I accidentally peered at Helene, I noticed that she was unwilling to

    Jaxon's Point of ViewI devoted my thoughts intently on her ghostly complexions. Even her once-rosy lips had become a lighter shade. Her scent made me feel apprehensive, as if the wind and rain had swept away the scent of cherry blossoms that had always brought me solace. Instead of adopting a dominant stance, she developed a look on her face that hinted she was being bullied.After the doctor shared his findings with me, he then departed. He claimed that there was nothing he could do to halt the gradual spread of the poison, and even if he was successful in doing so, he did not know what the consequences of his operations would be.He was completely worthless. They were entirely useless. I was useless."Mommy... huk. Mommy. Wake up, please."Morgan was whimpering as he embraced his mother's stomach as they both laid down. My son squeezed himself to his mother firmer as if he was frightened.My son. Son, huh?These were still strange sounding phrases to my ears. Nothing even somewha

    It had been a month since Veronica lost her memories. Within that month, she was always irritated by Jaxon for the way the Alpha was acting. Fortunately, she accepted the truth that she had a son with that man and gradually learned to get along with Morgan.[At the moment in the kitchen]Jaxon didn't feel hungry, yet he must eat something. And there was something going on in his head that made him want to escape in Veronica's sight. Since it had been awhile when he last touched her, there his instinct desiring to embrace her everytime his eyes were set on her. However, she was always surrounded by his people, so he couldn’t do that, and it might result in him being hated more by her.“Shit!” Veronica silently groaned in pain when she fell, and bumped with the edge of the kitchen table after running away. Watching Jaxon taking a stroll to the long table, she felt happy that she avoided him."Morgan, we should go back to our room," Veronica said to her son and wandered her eyes around t

    “It's unpleasant!” Veronica growled.Helene seemed to be pretending to be defeated earlier to take advantage of the chance to drop something into her ice cream. Jaxon was well-known for his irritability and terrible temper. If he ate the ice cream, he would torment Veronica to death. It's a clever yet foolish technique.“I’ll let you get away today!” She bit her lower lip, turned around, and returned to the kitchen to prepare a fresh batch of ice cream.After she prepared the new ice cream, the stress she had from the infinite questions of Uriel and Helene’s tactics made her exhausted.As she is already in front of the door, she knocked. Although the door was already half open, she still softly tapped on it twice."Get. fucking. In." Jaxon's rough and deep voice echoed.Veronica bit her lower lip and privately swore in her heart before pushing the door open. The interior architectural style astounded her again. The whole office space is circular in shape, with big floor-to-ceiling win

    “Congratulations to the new Alpha King!” The elder shouted in joy when he raised Jaxon's right hand. Jaxon had a stoic expression while Veronica was watching him with a smile on her lips.Veron raised his goblet while Helene was hugging Uriel tightly. Veronica pursed her lips when she realized she was smitten in love with Alpha Jaxon. After her suffering, Jaxon had done his best to make sure she would not experience what she had experienced with him.At first, Morgan became so distant from Jaxon. He finally learns that Jaxon changed himself to be his father.She glanced at Morgan, who was frowning at Selene. He was glaring at Selene while she was busy talking with another boy. Solene was chuckling beside him, secretly teasing him for being jealous.She laughed, making Morgan scowl at her, too. She almost screamed when she felt someone touch her waist, she gasped in relief when she noticed it was Alpha Jaxon, who had been arching his brow at her.“Who are you looking at? I do not like

    Veronica stared at the window. It was the month they were investigating what happened to the Alpha King. She sighed when she still did not get any information about what happened. The Alpha King found out that Veron and Helene had been planning something against him, making him hurt Helene once again. It was disturbing and they were doing their best to remove the Alpha King from his position. They even asked others to sign that they wanted to remove the King.They needed to do everything to prevent him not to going back to his throne. The councils kept investigating what they might give the Alpha King for violating the rules. He had abused his power and he did not mind if he stumble upon someone as long as he would be powerful.Unfortunately, he took Veron’s pack when she came back to Veron’s pack on the day she asked Ava’s help to look for Morgan. It was heartbreaking to see those innocent people get killed. The King was mad at his son for betraying him again. Helene had been held ca

    Veronica instantly stopped when Alpha James halted her from what she was going to say. She closed her eyes when Ava arched her brow, trying to see what she was going to say by looking at her. She looked away when Ava didn't avoid her sight.“You don't need to tell her about it. I am doing everything I can to stop it.” James almost whispered those words, making Ava frown. She disliked knowing James had a secret with Veronica.“Of course, she has the right to know about your problem. She is your mate! I am only trying to help you!” Veronica could not stop herself from telling what was in her mind. She crossed her arms on her chest and gave him a death glare. “I will give you today to tell everything to her. It is better if you will be honest with my sister.”“What is it, Alpha James? What do you want to tell me? It is better if you will everything to me so I will finally know what is your—”James clenched his jaw. He looked away while he shook his head in disbelief, “You don't need to b

    Veronica watched Ava sitting in the opposite chair while James had been talking with their father. She heard how her mother coughed, getting their attention that's why they looked at her.“Ava, as the leader of the pack, it is disappointing for us to know you committed something forbidden in our pack. We know being a werewolf is too animalistic, and brutal especially when it comes to sex. But, we taught you the importance of marriage. Our God is not tolerating something bad and you both know why we are strict with both of you.” She sighed. Disappointment was obvious on her face but she couldn't blame Ava for doing it. “You are lured because you finally see your mate. It's your wolf who keeps telling you to do it because she wants you to get mated with your mate. You are getting heat because you meet your mate. Unlike when you haven't seen him, you can still stop yourself from doing such immoral things.”“Mom, I know Ava doesn't do it intentionally. You know how the mate bond works, an

    “Oh! Veronica, I thought you were still at the entrance!” he exclaimed. He faked his cough as he gazed at his mate to prevent her from exposing what he had told her.“I was at the entrance but I am still part of this pack so I don't need to be interrogated by our troops,” she answered. She looked at her father, who was avoiding his eyes when she didn't leave her eyes on him. She sighed. Seeing how her father reacted made her think that he might be hiding something from her. “I want to talk to Ava. That's why I came here.”“I heard she's with Alpha James. I don't know where she is right now. Do you want me to look for her?” her father went towards her. It was strange for her to see how her father reacted as if he wasn't the ruthless Alpha she knew. She didn't say anything when her father pulled her to the table and made her eat with them. “Have you already eaten? Why do you want to talk with your sister? Veronica, I know you are mad about what she has done but I know your sister is onl

    Ava screamed as her body trembled aggressively. She was panting when James deepened each of his finger strokes in her vagina. She licked her lips, trying to hide the lust inside her body.James chuckled. He found it amusing to watch Ava turn weak because of what he did to her. Ava became aloof to him and he disliked the idea that Ava might be considering rejecting him.“Oh, you cum… you fucking squirt, baby!”“Squirt? What do you mean? I can't understand—”“It's one of the best orgasms. You see how you think you peed, that's how you squirt. It is better than peeing.” He explained.Ava nodded. She gave him a faint smile before she finally dared to touch his crotch, making James taken aback. He licked his lips when Ava continued to feel how hard he was for her.“I only want to make you cum… that's it.” it was so hard for him to utter those words. He felt that he was more in pain because Ava continued pressing his hardened cock. He swallowed when their eyes met. It seemed a power wanted

    Veronica was such a complete mess. She gasped when she felt the sticky liquid inside her vagina. Jaxon didn't stop banging her until she begged him to stop. Her cheeks flushed when she remembered how she acted while Jaxon had been doing everything to make her cum. She missed him.She never thought she would finally have the experience of being with him again. Jaxon pulled her and made her go back to reality. They started walking back in Jaxon's pack.“You are mine. I can't wait to put my mark on you, Veronica.” Jaxon uttered. Her cheeks blushed even more but she didn't say anything to him. She only tightened her grasp on his hand and let Jaxon drag her.She was confused. She was sure she was mad at Jaxon but it seemed her resentment towards him was finally gone. She didn't know when it started or perhaps it was because of the matebond.“I will make them see how good my future Luna is. It's you, Veronica.” He whispered in her ears making her swallow hard. She hoped to be his Luna, too.

    “Are you sure they will be fine? What will happen to them?” Veronica was hesitant. Jaxon didn't want them to go to the pack hospital and let Morgan go with Alpha Gerry. He didn't like to take a risk that someone might get caught or think that Veron had stayed in his pack for so long.“They will be fine. You don't need to go there because we are avoiding any problems. I don't want someone to catch us.” He answered. Alpha Gerry understood why they couldn't go with them and was thankful Morgan was with him.Veronica didn't say anything but continued from her walking. She sighed and tried to hide her fear that Solene might die. She realized that Solene was connected with Selene because they were twins, and there was a possibility that Selene might die once Solene died.“Do you already know it's Uriel—”“Yes, I am. He's the one who admitted that he's the one who took Morgan away from us. He didn't have a choice but to do it.” Jaxon quickly defended Uriel even though Veronica wasn't saying

    “I even blamed your father. I thought he was the reason why you died. I hate him so much.” she added.“I'm sorry, Mom. I only do it because Uriel doesn't know what to do. Just don't blame him because he was the one who didn't want to do it. I only thought he would return here after a year or months.”“You are my child. It's better if you will tell us first what you decide. But I know my nagging will be useless because you are fine here.”Morgan chuckled. Veronica sighed in sorrow. Morgan might be a child, but he had the charisma of Alpha Jaxon. He hoped Morgan wouldn't marry so soon.Morgan paused for a moment. He almost closed his eyes when he heard a tiny beat. He frowned because he couldn't find it. He became interested because that beat made his blood rush intensely.“Morgan, are you okay? What are you trying to see?” Veronica was confused when Morgan kept looking around to search for something.“I'm hearing tiny beats. I'm curious what it is?”“What do you mean, Morgan?”Morgan s
