Amelia's POV"Tell me, do you have a wolf?" he asked, this time banging his fists on the table."Isn't that the reason why you were driven from your pack?" he yelled as I shuddered."Why would you lie? Why would you deceive the rogues into taking someone like you?" he asked again as I shuddered, wondering how he would react to me being pregnant for the Alpha."How did you come to know about that Leader Andrew?" I asked with my head bent."Is that the answer to my question?" he asked."They might be lying," I said as he gave me a soft stare."Who has this?" he asked. I gasped, dread washing over me."How did you get this?" I asked in fear."How?""You aren't supposed to ask that. I'm the leader of this pack and have my ways around," he said as I gulped, praying he wouldn't open the next page.How has he gotten my diary? I wondered.I had hidden it safely. Not even Zoey knows about it, so how? I thought as he just kept staring at me."When you're done with thinking, you tell me the truth
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 toward
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
Amelia's POVSilence enveloped the scene as the words hung in the air, stinging my ears and sending a shiver down my spine."Watch your back, Melia. I won't be the only one to lose a child," she said to me, while Zoey ran out to the crowd."Come with me," she immediately said, trying to pull me away."No, I won't," I said with a fixed stare, glaring at Ruby."Don't you dare," I warned, shooting her a hard stare, wondering where the boldness came from?"What's going on here?" Andrew suddenly interjected."I had forgotten about him. What do I do now?" I wondered, looking around at the faces that stared at me."You're pregnant?" he asked with doubt."What? No," Zoey quickly replied. If it were up to me, I was ready to confess."I wasn't referring to you, Zoey.""Tell me," he said, marching towards me."Are you pregnant?" he asked, making me shudder in fear."No," I whispered, as a smirk danced at the corner of his lips."Are you sure?" he asked, staring intently at me."I'm not. Why woul
Andrew's POV"I love you," she suddenly said, taking the words from my mouth as I stared at her."What?" I asked with a smirk because she had taken me by surprise.She had just confirmed that I was her mate."I said that to calm you down, you know, right?" she immediately said with an embarrassed face as I tried hard to hold my laughter.She was embarrassed as I decided to play with her feelings a little before walking away to break the good news to Greg.I was so glad she was my mate. After much doubt, it was glaring that she was now my mate, and I felt bad for all the ill-treatment I had given her earlier.Greg and I had planned a huge surprise later in the day.I finally arrived at my room and walked in with a grim look."What happened?" Greg suddenly asked with care."She didn't accept you?""Don't tell me she didn't accept you," he said, but I didn't say a word and kept mute, leaving him confused."I said it. I knew it.""Knew what?""I knew that taking her to hear the doctor's r
Amelia's POV"There's been a murder," the lady yelled."Zoey, Zoey," I called out, rushing to my friend who lay still and motionless."No," I said in fear, trembling."Zoey, I'm sorry," I began, tears welling up in my eyes."Why is this happening to me, and why now?""Zoey, not you," I exclaimed, frightened, as Ruby walked in with a smirk on her face."Murderer," she called out, clapping her hands with a bright smile."That's what you are, a murderer," she spat at me, and I couldn't utter a word."Zoey?" Greg called, rushing into the room."What did you do to her?" he suddenly asked, giving me a stern stare."Believe me, I didn't do anything," I pleaded, tears streaming down my face."Poor Zoey," she called out, shaking her head."She found out your secrets, and you didn't have any option but to threaten her to keep them hidden. But when she told you she would inform the Alpha, you stabbed her," she said as I shook my head, tears blinding my eyes."Believe me, that's not what happened
Amelia's POVI growled at Ruby, who shuddered in fear. The people around us began to shift away, confused about what was happening. I could feel my wolf's presence, my anger pushing me to my limits."What's happening?" the onlookers asked, their voices filled with concern.I advanced towards Ruby, who retreated in fear, her back against the wall."Somebody help me!" she yelled, panic evident in her voice."She's trying to kill me, help!" Ruby pleaded, her fear growing as I closed the distance between us.Even the warriors couldn't stand their ground, shifting nervously as they sensed the power of my presence.Just then, Greg emerged from the hospital building, drawn by the commotion."What's the meaning of this commotion..." he began to ask, his words trailing off as his eyes locked on me."What in the goddess's name is that?" he exclaimed, his voice filled with shock as everyone scattered, afraid of what I might do.Feeling scared and unwelcome, I turned away from their fearful gazes
Chris POV*Some minutes ago*"But she doesn't look pregnant to me," Dove said as I rolled my eyes at him."This is the third time I'll be in prison, and the feeling isn't nice," Marcus said."You know you're the only wolf with humans," the chief said as I bent my head in frustration."And you know the wolves aren't that bad, look at how well they've been treating us," he added as I continued to roll my eyes."Alpha Chris," Dove called, tapping me."Are you okay?" he asked, and I just shrugged."You know, that baby was my only hope," I said with a sad sigh."What if she aborted the baby? She doesn't look pregnant.""That would be so bad, but I don't know. How are you expecting her to react? Don't tell me you're expecting her to leave the child for you, when didn't welcome her," Dove said."From what you told us, she was almost killed, and you deceived her, so what do you expect?""I suspect that strange leader of hers," I said angrily."What?""Couldn't you see his eyes? I can see love
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

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

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
