Skylar's POVBang! I smashed my palm against the steering wheel once more. I'd been trying to share this information across the internet since several hours back but it wouldn't let me. It was a photo of Skylar trying to con her way into being mates with two different werewolves, reportedly Alphas. Though the picture that displayed the three of them were photoshopped, I knew her ass would be exposed pretty soon. I sighed in victory as I slipped out my phone again, aiming to retry my luck. I had written a lot of content to publish alongside the picture so people would believe, but when the network went down, and returned, all the texts had disappeared, making me glare at the screen, feeling shocked by what it displayed. "Fuck this! Why wouldn't you want me to expose this motherfucker?! You are a bit..." I was about to curse the internet when the network connection was perfectly restored and my text was uploaded. A smile of victory graced my lips as I waited for people to respond to
Skylar's POVI woke up from my deeo slumber, reaching my hands for the switch. With my left hand covering my lips to stifle a yawn, I got out of bed, heading towards the restroom to clear my eyes and have a proper bath. A few hours later, I headed back to the living room where I saw Lucas coming towards me and a door creaked open as well. I stared in that direction and it was Logan. Oh, the kids."The kids?" Lucas questioned, as though he could hear my mind. I bobbed my head and headed to meet the kids. They were already up and doing when I entered their room. I gestured to them to head to the dining room for their breakfast, but they pretended to fall back asleep, causing me to move further into the room. .I crouched and caressed their head, "beautiful kids, come on, don't disobey mum." After conviction, they came on to the sitting room. Without much ado, I prepared the breakfast and we all finished eating quickly. The kids were overly excited to have the meal with both Lucas and
Skylar's POVI saw how worried Logan was, but he was just trying to hold back the worry from revealing on his face. A small frown formed on my head as the reporters ran after us. Even as he drove towards the street, there were some of them waiting for us at the next bus stop. I heaved a deep sigh of confusion, about to apologize for being the reason he's confused but he spoke up first. "You don't have to worry about them," he said, driving more crazily, "I'll handle them. They can be a pain in the ass. Even my father hates reporters. I hate them as welll. It seems like it's an inherited stuff.""Oh, and I'm sorry for causing confusion." I slightly spoke. He scoffed and continued driving till his phone beeped with a call. "Your attention should not be diverted while driving. How about I take the call?" I proposed but when we both saw the caller, we knew he was the one supposed to take the call. It was Lucas. He could speak better with him, since I didn't take his call. He swiped the
Logan's POVNo. This was overwhelming. I couldn't keep watching Skylar get tensed. Someone close to her must have done this. After a few hours of staying with Lucas and playing games with the kids while not even concentrating, I headed towards my car parked just outside. Lucas was about stopping me when I told him I needed to leave for my pack as well, hoping the reporters had left my way. "I'll be fine. I'm heading towards my pack," I said to him, "I need to make some research on how all these fake news spread. I need to get to the root of how it all happened from the outset."He nodded his head in response, backing up my resolve to ensure things went smoothly. As I hurried off towards the car, the scene flashed back to my memory. How Skylar was being overly surrounded and how she managed to get into my car and how I courageously drove the car away from their reach. I got into my car and started it immediately, gliding into the streets. I was seeking peace of mind and reporters bei
Lucas"Won't you do something? This is getting out of control!" Skylar clutched my shirt again, her gaze fixed on me as if she was about to swallow me. "I know that you're nervous, but let me get this cleared — a car arrived to pick up the kids and you didn't tell me about it?"She dropped her hands from my shoulders and started rolling her eyes furiously at me, "When did I start notifying you about children being conveyed to their destination? I've never done it.""You could have done that, last time around!" I yelled at her, hoping she'd get the idea.I pulled my phone out of my pocket, attempting to reach to my pack for some queries, when I immediately heard sobs. My gaze fell on her, who was standing in a corner, mumbling to herself."The children are just as important to me. I wouldn't just sit here without doing anything.""So do it! Call who you're going to call and bring back my children to me," she managed to say, although her voice was muffled by sobs. "That's what I was
Logan"I'm not sure if the kids are fine," Lucas answered. I was going to assure him I'd be on my way right away when he hung up the phone. The children were not fine. What could have happened to them?My blood ran cold at the thought of it, as if something bad was happening. I ran over to my car, which was parked just outside, but then I noticed I was shirtless. I dashed back in to grab a shirt. I was starting to understand why Lucas advised me not to drive carelessly. Who would hear about a danger regarding kids yet remain silent about it? I steered the car onto the street and sped madly towards his house. I'm sorry, Lucas, but I must put what you've said aside. I could not even breathe properly after hearing news like this. I couldn't recollect the last time I panicked to this extent. In just a few minutes, I was able to observe them up close. I accelerated the car and brought it to a stop at whim. My head crashed against the steering wheel, and sweat ran down my cheeks. I notic
Skylar'sI don't care what anyone thought about this anymore. It was necessary to take a course of action as well. I grew suspicious that my sister was behind this, and I felt a strong desire to charge at her and twist her neck. My eyes flashed with rage as I rushed out of the house, slamming the door firmly. I had to confirm whether she was involved in this matter. It would be better if she told me the truth, otherwise I may commit the unimaginable. As I stepped into her room, I noticed her conducting community service, and she eagerly approached me to greet me when she saw me."Freya? You are the person behind this matter, aren't you? You ordered for the kidnap of the kids. Didn't you?" Her eyes rolled frantically before they landed on my gaze again. She seemed a little bit confused about what I was saying. "Kids? I didn't order for any arrest. Why would I do that?" She inquired, sounding a bit impatient with my presence in the room. But when she noticed my anger seething, my ja
Skylar"You'll be fine. What about Lucas and Logan? Where are they?" Freya inquired as I slipped out of the strong grip. I wiped my face with my palms to wipe off the drips of tears, and then sighed. "They are here now. I'll... thank you." I said, grabbing the doorknob while I ran off. I returned to my living room and noticed Lucas and Logan waiting for me. Despair was written all on their faces, and I couldn't help but cry again. The longer it takes to find the kids, the more dangerous it becomes. Lucas took a deep breath as he sank back in his chair, while Logan closed his eyes and opened them impulsively. The gesture just made my pulse race with anxiety. But suddenly Lucas lifted his gaze and, after spotting me, a frightening smirk appeared on his chin. "Skylar? Where have you been?" He inquired, rising to his feet and approaching me. "I...I do not know. What is going on now?" I still have not received any feedback from anyone.Logan grinned maliciously before responding, "We
LucasIt was taking longer to get home, and I began to worry about what had happened to Skylar. I urged Logan to drive much faster. "The children are in the car. We should be more cautious about how we accelerate." Logan told me."Skylar is home and in danger. We should be more cautious about how we handle the situation." I answered, and he let out a deep sigh before accelerating the car. I was considering urging him to slow down the car, but I had previously challenged him once. Something ruptured the tires just as we were about to drive down the next street, causing the control to veer unevenly.My eyes widened as I clutched the children closer to me. I closed my eyes, and Logan struggled to handle the car until we collided with a tree and came to a stop. Logan's head rested on the driving wheel, and I could feel myself fading away gradually. After what felt like a lifetime, I awoke from my daydream, and it appeared like Logan was also waking up. We clambered out of the car as ou
Skylar I dropped the call, and turned to face Freya, pretending I hadn't heard that she orchestrated the plot. I took a few long breaths and proceeded to sit right next to her, but the look on her face was unsettling. "Have the kids been found?" Freya inquired, but I simply giggled in an attempt to disregard the question. "I know the kids have been found." She spoke shortly after. "Then why did you have to ask me?" I responded, attempting to draw away from her, but she pushed closer, her eyes glistening with horror. "I could even sense that from your demeanor.""But why are you doing that? Freya, how dare you? I challenged her, knowing she was aware of my knowledge of her role in the kidnapping plot, but she reacted with a gruff giggle."I don't need a reason," she continued, her voice as calm and gloomy as possible. "I despise you with all my soul and would like you to experience pain.""You are not at my standard at all, so how do you hope to have great things?" I questioned her
LoganI expected Lucas to talk about notifying Skylar about this, but as I picked up my phone to call her, Lucas stopped me and showed me. He turned up the volume on the speaker, and we could all hear it perfectly. "Hello, Skylar. Are you fine?" I asked, trying to keep my comments as quiet as possible so she wouldn't suspect anything yet. "I am fine. I feel great. How is the situation now?" She inquired, her tone full of desire. "Skylar, guess what?" I questioned, about to tell what was on her mind, but I sensed she was either thinking we'd seen the kids and rescued them, or that we'd arrived and discovered they were dead."Skylar!! We found the kids!" Logan yelled, and she could hear the two boys behind her speaking quietly. She screamed with pleasure over the phone, and the sound deafened me as I pondered how she would have raised her voice from where she was. I pulled the phone back to my ears, taking it from the loud speaker as I spoke sincerely with her, glancing at Lucas the
Chapter 111Lucas's POVLogan did not ask me what I did to Jackson, but the look on his face indicated I had possibly killed him. We understood ourselves well, but we didn't relate. I'm sure he knows I killed my Beta to defuse the situation. Sparing someone that horrible would only wreak disaster. What tempted him to do that shit with Freya?The children trembled in the car, and their lips shook violently. They were exhausted from the bindings around their necks, and their lips appeared lame."Can you speak, Andrew? If you can't, don't say anything just yet. We genuinely care about you and do not want anything terrible to happen to you." Logan spoke from the driver's seat. "Yes, I can," Andrew exclaimed. I was ready to hear him out now. Logan turned his attention back to see the kids' expressions as they explained what they had in mind "It happened when Mum gave us to someone who would drive us to our destination as usual. And then we recognized the man driving us wasn't Lucas, but
SkylarMy stomach churned as I gripped the walls. I'd been feeling weak for quite some time, especially since Logan and Lucas had gone ahead to find the kids. I was also silently praying that nothing bad happened to them. I prayed they wouldn't get lost while trying to save those who had gotten lost. If there was one thing I was truly afraid of, it was my children being killed, harmed, or even lost in the hands of someone I did not know. The more I blamed myself for putting the children's lives in danger by failing to check who was driving, the weaker I felt. Dana met my gaze, and I nodded briefly. She rushed to meet me, dropping her head."I did not call you. I was just staring at you. Anyway, what are you up to?" I asked, sighing heavily. "Actually, Angela is about to leave, and I'd like to accompany her and make something for lunch. You haven't eaten in days, and it's definitely affecting you. Just be patient while we go and come back. We won't take too long," she replied, and m
FreyaWhen I realized how far I'd gotten with my dark arrangements, a big grin spread across my lips. The morons around me believe the deception, but just now, I was overjoyed that my plan had been fulfilled. I had no idea when mom entered the living room and stood in front of me, wondering if I had gone insane. "Why are you zoning out?" She questioned suspiciously. "Oh, mum, you're here," I murmured, rising to my feet before settling back into the chair. I was literally hyper, and I knew why. "I had an absolutely fantastic day. "Isn't it worth smiling at?" I inquired, a huge smile forming on my chin. She shrugged her shoulders and took a step nearer, focusing her eyes at me as if she suspected something else. "I love you so much and truly mean it. If there's anything I can do to assist you deal with the bitch, please let me know. I'll definitely help you," she murmured, but I stroked her back while she stroked mine."Huh?" She inquired again, possibly assuming I didn't recogniz
LucasWe argued for several minutes about who was to blame for our relationship's issues, but he never agreed. He had made some claims that were all lies!We ultimately arrived at where we would park our cars. I took a big breath as we both exited the car. Suddenly, we were working together again. Our current motivations had shifted. "Please keep your composure as we enter. Logan told me, "This is the main reason we came here." I nodded. We both pushed a smile to our faces to indicate that we were no longer annoyed with one other, at least for the time being.Then we crept into the place. The location that the signal sent us to. My sight shifted to the figures at a close range. The boys were truly tied up and crying."Oh my goodness!" Logan muttered, pressing his fists to his chest as he went to untie the children. I looked around to check if anyone was around, but I couldn't see anyone. I rushed into this haven, ensuring that my pistol was still in my pocket, in search of Jackson.
LoganI'd been on the road for a few minutes, and Lucas's question was nagging me. I wanted to offer him the most accurate answer, but do I even know what it is? "I'm actually surprised that you're asking me this," I remarked to him, reducing the car's acceleration now that we were so near to our destination. "I do not hate you, and I never have. When it comes to leaving you behind for an extended period of time, I believe you should also discuss yourself. You're too busy to join me for lunch or dinner. Wait, why would we even do that?""That is exactly my issue. You don't care about it, and you've did not make an effort to make this work between us.""Do not state this as if it were a girl-boy relationship. We should be close to one another. Of course. However, I believe that efforts to achieve this should come from both sides, not just myself. Don't you understand what I am saying?" I spoke back to him. "Of course. Skylar has always been busy, but taking her to lunch was somethin
LucasI walked home when I couldn't find the signal, as we had previously agreed. I took several calm breaths and returned home, where I listened to the toys transmitting radio waves. Skyler was there alongside me, but she didn't know how these things worked. "Did you find anything yet?" She inquired, her tone filled with concern and dread."Please be patient. Logan is also investigating, and we'll get to the bottom of this soon." I said, took a big breath, and ultimately received the signal. When she noticed my eyes widening, she realized I'd spotted something which had captured my attention.Logan entered as well, and that was the very first thing I mentioned."I found the signal!" I said, and a huge grin formed on his lips just as he was going to lean back on the sofa and take a break from a lot of hard work "We need to get going now. We don't have the time to waste." He spoke to me, and Skyler moved closer to us. I clutched her waist and planted a fast kiss on her chin. She smi
