Amelia's Pov "I want you to control your feelings in this pack if you want to live," He said again as he sat beside my bed. I could feel my heart skip a beat as I looked at him in shock. "Kill the feelings you have towards me. Work on yourself and your feelings. I don't want such a situation to repeat itself."I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Did he just say what I think he said? I stared at him in silence, trying to process his words. "What situation are you talking about?" I finally asked, my voice shaking with fear."You know what situation I'm talking about," he replied coldly. "The situation where you almost got yourself killed because you couldn't control your feelings for me."I looked down at my hands, feeling ashamed. He was right. I had put myself in danger because I couldn't control my emotions. But it wasn't just about him. It was about everything that had happened since I joined this pack."I know I need to work on myself," I said, looking up at him. "But it's no
Amelia's Pov "Baby?" I stuttered, staring at her, in shock, wondering how she discovered it."What baby?" I asked, trying to play dumb, hoping she would drop the subject, but her eyes bore into mine, and I knew there was no escaping this conversation."Don't tell me you didn't know you were pregnant." She said giving me this I know look."So who's responsible? I never knew Andrew finally found a mate." She said as I tried to shush her."Please, no." "What's wrong?" She asked as I rolled my eyes."You know the punishment for carrying a bastard right, I'll be eliminated," I whispered as she just looked like she didn't understand what I was saying.Suddenly she gasped, placing her hands against her mouth."So you mean that…." She paused, pointing to my stomach."This child belongs to an outsider?" She whispered as I nodded wearily."Oh no, and you're three months gone. How have you been hiding it from the pack." She asked with care as I just shrugged."How did you discover I am with ch
Amelia's PovI stared in fear as he walked towards us and picked up the paper lying on the floor."Why are you going through my documents and what are you doing here?" He questioned walking towards his table."A question needs to be answered girls, so speak." He demanded as I shuddered."We, I… we were just exploring and shouldn't have come here.""Never knew this was your room," Zoey whispered as Andrew nodded."Nice excuse, but it seems you were desperately searching for something. What is that?" He asked as I shifted uncomfortably."I see Nurse Zoey is taking very good care of you. So I guess you'd be strong to complete your task tonight." I watched as he picked the results from the table."Was this what you were searching for?" He whispered as he opened it."Greg had sent it earlier, your test results." He said as the piercing sound in my head resumed."You've added drastically, people don't get fat during a war, it's only one thing that causes that." And with that, he tore open t
Amelia's Pov I turned in fright upon hearing the voice."Are you okay?" Zoey asked, making me rest on the bed as I nodded frantically looking around."What's this all about? Is he that ruthless?" She asked as I just nodded."You can't do it, right? Do you need water?" She asked as I just kept nodding. This was too much for me to bear.I watched as she ran to get the water for me. I watched her bring the water to me."Wouldn't it be nice to kill her? At least she's not yet a member of the pack and it won't affect Andrew, rather he would realize your smartness." The voice said to me."Melia, Melia, Melia are you there?" The voice called out, but I was lost in thoughts."Melia!" She yelled, this time shaking me countless as I opened my eyes."I need to escape, please help me leave," I begged as she just stared at me with sad eyes."This isn't good for you, neither is it good for the baby." She said, trying to calm me down but that wasn't what I needed now. I just wanted to run away. Str
Amelia's Pov I cursed under my breath as I was being dragged from the room. I knew I was a disappointment, but I had made up my mind to leave.I have been caught, but I wouldn't let my guard down. I've made up my mind to escape, and that's what I was going to do. I looked at Zoey and immediately felt sorry for her. I had dragged her into my mess.I knew this time that Andrew wasn't just going to let it go as I rolled my eyes. I had gotten myself into this mess and wouldn't blame anyone. I've always heard of how deadly the cannibal pack was when I was a kid and never knew that one day I would be in the pack."Let go of me!" Zoey suddenly yelled as she struggled against their grip."Quiet!" one of the guards barked, tightening his hold on her.I glanced at her, she looked just as scared as I felt. "Don't worry," I whispered. "We'll figure something out."As we were led through the packhouse to the place of confinement, I took mental notes of our surroundings. I needed to know where
Amelia's Pov "Two-faced bitch." Ruby mocked staring at me as I wondered what she was doing here with plates in her hands.I felt a surge of anger and hurt as those words echoed in the room again. "Murderer!" I couldn't believe it. I had never taken a life before, yet they accused me of such a heinous act. How sure are they that she's dead? Or has Ruby planned with them to kill her to blame me?"You're wrong!" I shouted back, my voice shaking with emotion. "I have never killed anyone and I wouldn't start with my friend!"They just laughed at me, clearly not believing my words. I could feel the fear rising in my chest as I realised the gravity of my situation. I couldn't let them catch me, I was now surrounded by enemies.But I refused to give up. I wasn't a murderer and I was determined to leave this pack with Zoey. I wasn't going to let them take me down without a fight.Without hesitation, I launched myself out of the window, throwing myself through the air with all my might. Th
Amelia's Pov "Don't blame her too much, and find a place in your heart to forgive her. That's if you leave alive." A familiar voice said behind me as I turned."You feel betrayed? That's how I also feel." He said as I bent my head in shame."I took you into my pack, made you feel at home and how do you pay me back?""You try to sneak out of the pack, that's not even my problem because anyhow, you would have found your way back to me.""But you try to surrender yourself to another rogue pack. A pack that I'm higher than! That's an insult to me." He spat as I began feeling guilty."You, just be grateful to Zoey, I keep to my word." He spat."Else, my plan was killing you both, but she already made the promise and fulfilled it." He added as I tried to avoid his eye contact."You look me in the face and not bend your head." He commanded as I raised my head. My eyes fell on Greg who stared with an emotionless face."Take them to the torture room and give them eighty whips.""This is just
Amelia's Pov "Strip!" And with that, he forcefully tore half of my top as I shuddered.I looked up at the men and could see that lustful glee on their faces."Nice body." One said as his eyes wouldn't leave my bust."What are you trying to do?" I stuttered, taking some steps backward. I recognize that look even unto death. It was one Mr. Henry always had whenever he wanted to do something nasty to me."Stop looking at me like that." I half yelled as the men gave a dirty laugh."Do you want to incur the leader's wrath again?" He asked as I shuddered."Good girl, we don't want that either." He said."What are you trying to do?" I asked again, this time scared."There are different kinds of punishments, right? We will just give you the suitable one." One said as they all held me down while I struggled furiously with them, all to no avail."Let me go this moment, or else you will regret it!" I threatened as they looked at each other and laughed hard."What's so funny?" I asked as the doo
Chris POV"Why don't we kill him?" I shot him a stare, my eyes filled with a mixture of fear and defiance."Take this," he said, handing Dove the bag, while I whimpered, staring at them, my body trembling."You don't want to do this," he said, his voice laced with a threatening undertone, as he walked towards me, and I instinctively moved backward, my heart pounding in my chest."And where do you think you're going?" one of Dove's men asked, his voice dripping with malice and amusement."You talk too much. We need to end you," he said, a cruel grin spreading across his face, as I found myself apologizing profusely, my voice quivering with fear. But then, unexpectedly, they burst into laughter."Got you again," they said, their laughter echoing through the air, as I heaved a sigh of relief, wiping the tears from my eyes."Yeah, you did, and it isn't funny," I said, my voice still shaky, trying to regain my composure."Don't tell me you were crying, bro," they said to me, their tone tea
Amelia's Pov "I love you," I said, my voice trembling, as he paused, his expression unreadable."Ermm," I stammered, a nervous laugh escaping me."I said that to calm you down, you know, right?" I continued, gesturing with my hands, but he remained silent, his gaze fixed on me."You love me, don't you?" he finally asked, his tone questioning, as I turned to leave, feeling the weight of embarrassment overwhelming me. I nodded, unable to find the words."I do, I do love you," I managed to say, my emotions impossible to conceal, as a small smile formed on his lips."But what about your mate? You need to work on your feelings," he replied curtly, turning to leave, and I couldn't believe it."What?" I blurted out, looking around the empty hallway, my embarrassment intensifying."Did I just confess my feelings and get this as a reply?" I murmured, unable to comprehend what had just transpired."Oh no," I whispered, realizing I had gotten myself into trouble.Facing him again seemed impossi
Andrew's PovI couldn't believe it. How did they catch him? I knew he was quick and resourceful. My heart sank as I watched him being dragged closer and closer to us. I could see the fear in his eyes.Pete walked up to him and sneered. "Looks like we caught ourselves a little spy, your savior," he said. "What do you have to say for yourself, Greg?"Greg didn't answer, but I could see the defiance in his eyes. He was always the stubborn one, never backing down from a challenge. I admired him for that, but I also knew it could be his downfall.I stood frozen in horror as Greg was dragged towards us like a sacrificial goat. His eyes were filled with fear and despair, and I knew that he had suffered greatly at the hands of these monsters.Pete let out a wicked laugh as he signaled for his men to bind Greg to the stake. "Let's start with him," he said, his eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure.I wanted to rush forward and save him, but I knew it was too late. Greg was already bound, and t
Chris Pov"You two, stop right there." He ordered as we paused in our tracks."Hey, Dove." How're you doing? The man who was sneaking us out earlier said with a huge smile on his face."Do you think we will be caught?" Zeal whispered, staring at me as I shook my head."This place isn't okay for us. Two people have discovered who we are, we need to leave." I said to Zeal who nodded. "We heard that some newbies came into town today." The Dove of a man said coming towards us."Keep your cool." I urged Zeal as Virtue just stared on."We heard you came into town this evening." He said."Yes," I replied."I heard you're tourists." He said as I nodded with a smile, "You heard that right," I said."We hardly have your folks around here. Haven't you heard about us? We hardly entertain strangers." He said as I smiled."I did notice it. Probably didn't do my research well. We leave at dawn." I said as he nodded."It's okay," he said, turning to leave, as I heaved out a sigh of relief when he s
Chris Pov "This isn't right. This isn't right." I yelled, scattering my hair."This is a lie, Lucy wouldn't do this to me." I half yelled, running my hands through my hair. "You need to calm down," Clayton said."Calm down?" "Calm down?" That the girl I harbored in my home as a wife was a snake, calm down?""She destroyed my home, my pack, my family and you're telling me to calm down.""I don't even know who to trust." I spat as I went back to Jack who was struggling for his life."Who are her accomplices?" "Just Elias and I.""What about Dave? Who is he to her?" I asked again."He's just her toy, she uses him to satisfy her sexual urge." He said as I shuddered."Come with me," I said as Mr. Clayton hopped into the car."Where are we headed?" Clayton asked."To my pack house."The anger within me consumed every fiber of my being as I sped down the road toward the pack house. My grip on the steering wheel tightened, my knuckles turning white, as my foot pressed firmly on the accel
Chris Pov Lucy has always looked suspicious, but I didn't want to ever distrust my mate and not think that she was a murderer. I couldn't believe it."You also suspected her, right?" Detective Clayton asked."We had a little argument last night and I just said it, but I never knew it. The Luna of this great pack was a murderer?" "Was that why she was persuading me to drop that case and telling me it wasn't a murder case, but a suicide." I shuddered."So what are you going to do about it now?" He asked, but I was sincerely at a loss. I don't know for real.I was still in shock, it had washed over me like a tidal wave, threatening to drown me in its relentless grip. My fists clenched, and I felt the anger boiling within me, threatening to consume every ounce of rationality."And it appears she's been involved in more than just one murder." He said as I shuddered.My heart was pounding in my chest as a surge of emotions surged through me. I fought to control the anger that threatened
Andrew's Pov"We've been surrounded" I heard him yell as the realization dawned on me.The realization hit me hard that the boy standing beside Chris all this while was one of Lucy's rogues, and he had just betrayed us.Panic ensued as chaos erupted in the camp. The others had quickly turned their attention to the sudden attack. I searched for Chris and spotted him as he struggled to stay conscious, clutching his bleeding stomach.It was the full moon and I wasn't ready for all this unfolding drama, I was driven by anger and protectiveness and I swiftly fought back against them.I was filled with rage as I unleashed my power, displaying my dominance over them, but we were already caught off guard, and the battle was fierce.This wasn't what I was expecting as I looked around me in confusion.Everyone was busy fighting for their lives, I knew we had a great journey before us and we needed our strength for it.I turned to get a few men by my side, Marcus was one of them."You will hav
Amelia's POV"What did you just do?" a voice said behind me as I gasped, covering my lips with my hand."I swear, it wasn't intentional," I said in fear, wondering what had come over me."We need to tell the leader.""This is punishable by death," different voices said behind me when I spotted Greg and Zoey coming toward me."What's it? What happened?" Zoey asked, taking me into a warm embrace."I don't know," I said with fear, my voice quivering."I don't know what has come over me. She was taunting me, and I got angry and pushed her," I said, and Andrew ran to me."Are you okay?" he asked with care as I shuddered."I don't know what came over me, but I hope she isn't dead," I said with fear, my hand paced across my stomach."Send for the pack doctor," he said as he turned to Ruby's minions."What's going on? What happened?" he asked as they immediately pointed at me accusingly."She pushed her," one said."Why?""Alpha?""I said, why did she push her?" he asked again, marching towar
Chris's Pov"Isn't that fur?" The voice said as I turned around to look at Dove."Why would you bring a cat in here?" He asked one of his men as I heaved a sigh of relief."Congratulations. You passed the test." The chief said as I turned with a small smile."Welcome to town.""So we'll take our leave now." The hunter said as we turned to leave."Not so fast." Dove suddenly called out."Why?" I asked."We need to test the little girl too." He said as we all turned to Virtue."How're you?" Playing with her hair, he asked."I'm fine.""Okay, what are you doing here?" But she didn't say a word as she just stared at him."Who are they to you? Your parents?" He asked again as she just shook her head."Well, what's going on here?""Where are your parents?" He asked again."Dead." She whispered."Sad, sorry for your loss, who killed them?" He probed, desperately hoping she would call our names, but she was just calm staring at him."I thought you said she was your daughter? Was she kidnapped
