Ember's POV

I groaned in frustration for the millionth time, tired of doing nothing and just laying in bed all day.

"Are you ok, Ivy?" Mia asked, looking worried.

"Do I look ok?" I frowned, looking irritated and she remained silent, having nothing to say. The kids were presently asleep in Faye's room and I didn't want to wake them up.

I've been holed up here in my room for as long as I can remember and it's frustrating, just staying in bed and doing nothing. How the hell was I to have my revenge on Brandon if all I do is sleep and wake up?

As much as I hated to admit it, I was weak and couldn't even protect myself. The sight of blood was enough to knock me unconscious.

If I wanted to take down the bloodhound pack, I needed to get stronger and I wasn't going to become stronger by laying in bed all day, doing absolutely nothing.

I immediately sat up, surprising Mia. I wore a determined look on my face, ready to make a change.

"What are you planning to do Ivy?" Mia frowned, her eyes fill

    Ember's POV"I thought you wanted to tell me how to get myself off Faye's hate list? Where are you suddenly taking me to?" I frowned, blindly following Mia as she led to God knows where."You need to see what I'm about to show you first. It will help you understand better even without an explanation," she replied, grinning.Mia was about to tell me how to get myself off Faye's hate list when she suddenly stopped and said it was better if she showed me instead. I had no idea what she plans on showing me but I believe it has something to do with Faye.Not knowing where Faye was, she left to make a finding before coming back to drag me along with her.I looked around, recognizing the route we were taking. We were heading towards the training room. I was gradually becoming familiar with the entire building. It was the best thing to do since I was stuck here for the next six months."Why the training room anyways? What would Faye want there anyways? She doesn't look like the type that figh

    Ember's POVI huffed in annoyance, shuffling through the dresses in the wardrobe but none was to my taste. They were all bland and they didn't have the sparkle I wanted.I needed new clothes!There was a knock on the door, drawing my attention."Who is there?" I asked."It's me Luna," Mia replied and I rolled my eyes."I told you to knock two times and come in unless I tell you not to." She opened the door, coming in and she chuckled nervously, scratching her head."I'm sorry Ivy. I've just kinda gotten used to always knocking and waiting till I'm asked to come in.""You need to unlearn that if you're going to be my personal maid, I can't always be reminding you what to do. What's in your hands anyways?" I frowned, glancing at the packaged box in her hands."Oh, I brought this for you, Ivy," she said, handing the package item to me and I took it, intrigued."What's this?" I tore the package open, finding a flowered gown and some boots in the box, surprising me."How did you know?" I l

    Ember's POVI grinned mischievously, everything going in accordance to my plan. I had Faye's attention now but one more push and she might eventually blow up in my face.The only thing stopping her right now were her brothers but I doubt I could use them as shield any longer if I decided to push Faye's button more."Provoking Faye is not a way of playing Cupid, Luna," Mia said, panicking and I rolled my eyes."Why are you so scared Mia? I'm literally the one doing all the provoking, you're just doing your work and following me around as my personal maid.""That's the issue Luna! Faye can't touch you at the moment to get back at you. She'll only end up incurring the wrath of the Lycan Kings. If she can't touch you, who do you think she'll go for next?" She asked and I hummed, thinking."Definitely not the kids," I shook my head sideways, eliminating them from her hit list. She adored my kids too much to hurt them just to get back at me. I saw first-hand how she adores my babies as thou

    ALEC'S POVThe drive to the company was silent, no one saying anything but I was not dumb. Tyler kept frowning throughout the drive, staring out of the window and I knew he had something to say.It's surprising he's held back for this long."Are you going to talk or keep frowning till we get to our location?" I asked and he finally looked away from the window facing me."I don't understand, why would you tell Ivy to get in the good books of Faye and Everest? We were supposed to be on the same team!""So what exactly is bothering you?" I furrowed my eyebrows at him not really understanding what has him all upset."Is it the fact that I said she should get in the good books of Faye and Everest within three days or the fact that I said we would consider letting her work and train if she succeeds?""Both!" He yelled in reply."You know quite alright that getting into Faye's good books is close to impossible. I can't even start talking about how much headache Everest is going to give her.

    ALEC'S POVSilas knelt down before us, his head bowed as I twirled around in my chair, enjoying myself.Tyler walked around the office, going through everything. He was intrigued by goddess knows what. I have to desire to know what he finds interesting about Silas dumb office anyways."Spare me, please," Silas pleaded, scared to his bones and I rolled my eyes. I hated men that were weak but still tried to go behind my back and betray him.What do they expect?"Begging Alec is simply going to make him kill you faster," Tyler smiled, facing him."You of all people should know just how crazy Alec can get.""I do not appreciate being painted so badly, brother," I glared at him and he chuckled."But it's the truth, and you know it."I looked away, deciding to ignore him."I'll make you a deal, Silas," I began and his eyes lit up with hope."I'd like you to choose your words carefully. As you know, I don't like being lied to, deceived or toyed with. So you choose; you either tell me the tru

    Ember's POVConvincing a raging Faye to go shopping with me wasn't as easy as I thought. Using the kids as leverage didn't work out well like I anticipated.Although she loved my babies and loved being around them, her dislike for me made her turn down my offer to go shopping with the kids and I.Mia, Alec and Tyler thought I was crazy to think I could make her go shopping with me after the stunt I pulled during breakfast. I also thought I was crazy myself but that didn't mean I wouldn't try.The kids were not the only thing I had to convince her with. I had Rome follow me shopping. Once she knew about this, she couldn't resist the offer to spend time in the same space with her mate who wasn't ready to acknowledge her."You're a devil," Mia muttered in disbelief when I successfully managed to make Faye tag along despite the fact that she hated me.If being the devil got the work done then I'm pretty much okay with being the devil. The devil isn't such a bad person right? He makes you

    Ember's POVThere was a knock on the door, interrupting my sleep. I grumbled, refusing to open my eyes as I covered my head with my pillow."Luna! Luna!" Mia burst into the room, screaming."Go away!" I huffed in annoyance, refusing to get up from the bed."But it's good news, you need to hear it!" She continued pestering me, trying to get me to get up. I was literally strangling her in my head right now.I am having my beauty sleep! It isn't even morning yet!"Uhmmm it's actually 12 pm already," she replied and that was all it took for me to get up from the bed in alarm."What do you mean it's 12 pm?" I checked the alarm clock beside me to find it broken and destroyed, making me frown."Was I robbed yesterday?""No Luna, the broken alarm is your doing," Mia replied, trying to hold back her laughter.How could this possibly be my handwork? I can't even remember the alarm ringing or me laying a hand on it. Mia was probably trying to shift the blame on me.I eyed her suspiciously, refus

    Ember's POVWatching Everest get drunk over that loser made me pissed. Don't get me wrong now, it's not like I'm beginning to grow a soft spot for Everest but I feel he deserves better. Everyone does.The guy in question doesn't even give a fuck about the fact that Everest is sitting not too far away from him, watching him cheat. I clenched my fist, unable to control my anger.For some annoying reasons, he reminded me of Brandon. Assholes like him didn't deserve the tears of Everest and definitely didn't deserve his love either just like Brandon doesn't deserve me.Even if I end up losing the bet I made with Alec and Tyler, if I can help Everest move on from this asshole, I'll be the most satisfied bitch in town.I glared at the guy in question, thinking of a million ways to murder him. Assholes like him don't deserve to live.I grinned devilishly, my head formulating a plan. I slowly approached the counter, beckoning on the bar man."What would you like to drink?" He asked."Do you h

    Alec's POVI sat still in my chair lost in thoughts as Rome rambled on, giving me his reports but I could barely hear a word he was saying, not when my mind was totally occupied with thoughts of Ember.Never in a million years would I have expected Ember to suddenly kiss Tyler and I out of the blues in the presence of everyone. Although I was a little disappointed when I discovered that she only did it out of the influence of what she was drugged with. My eyes burnt in fury once I remembered that someone actually dared drug Ember with lecherous thoughts in mind. Too bad he died by her hands and not mine. He would have experienced worse things than death. Ember kissing Tyler and I was not the only shocking thing that blew our minds, finding out she actually killed different wolves from the Howling moon pack was more shocking. A smile crept on my face as a proud feeling washed over me.FLASHBACK Tyler and I sat still in the living room, the temperature dangerously low as we awaited t

    Ember's POVMy face paled drastically as my memories came rushing in. The headache I felt initially was now non-existent and I could barely feel anything anymore. I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I actually killed someone, not just one person but more than 5 people all at once."Do you remember now?" Faye asked, releasing my hands and I chuckled nervously, stunning them all."That was simply an illusion right? I can't possibly have killed a lot of people like that on my own at my current strength, right? It has to be an illusion." I shook my head sideways, refusing to accept that it was real. The best explanation I could come up with was the fact that it was an illusion. "You should really stop undermining yourself, Ivy," Faye grinned, looking at me with a strange look in her eyes. But—""Don't even think of coming up with another crazy theory, Ivy Rose," Faye cut me short abruptly, taking me aback as she addressed me by my full name. I frowned, glaring at he

    Ember's POVI groaned from my sleep, rolling on my side till I landed on the floor and let out a yelp."Fuck!" I cussed loudly, totally waking up from my sleep. I sat up on the ground, frowning as I looked around, no sign of Mia. That was strange, I always wake up to see Mia's face every morning. Not seeing her felt like I was missing something.I groaned, closing my eyes briefly as I felt a splitting headache. "Fuck this hurts," I grumbled, slowly dragging myself up from the ground. Besides the splitting headache, I felt like shit. Staring at my reflection in the mirror I couldn't help but scowl. I looked like I just came out of the deepest part of hell, looking miserable. First of all, my hair seemed to be everywhere and no matter how I tried to get it to relax, it wouldn't obey. Besides my hair, I was wearing a shirt that called me a bitch, very insulting. There's no way I would have or agreed to wear a shirt like this unless I wasn't in my right mind. Worst of all, my face looks

    Ember's POVFaye huffed, rolling her eyes as she walked in, taking a seat beside me on the bed. "I've been standing there long enough to hear you ask questions about the healer you shouldn't be asking.""Why shouldn't I be asking?" I asked, arching my eyebrows at her. "Is it so wrong for me to want to know the woman who helped my kid and also took care of me while I was unconscious?""No, it's not wrong but no one appreciates you sticking your nose in things that have nothing to do with you," she retorted, taking me aback.Ok....... What the hell was wrong with her? I gave her a weird look trying to think of a million things that could be making her act out while Mia just stood aside, silently, not saying anything. "Look," she sighed, her face loosening as she faced me."I'm sorry I sound like a bitch just now but you really should stop asking around about her. It's not going to do anyone any good. There's a reason no one knows anything about her and a reason no one cares.""But I d

    Ember's POVMy eyes slowly fluttered open as I laid still in bed, frowning. For the first time in a long time I had a different dream with no Brandon in it neither was I crying or in pain. What was more strange was that it felt so real. "Ivy, are you ok?" Mia asked, standing beside me, looking worried and I slowly sat up, frowning. "I'm ok, I just had the strangest dream and I don't know what to make of it.""A dream?" She frowned and I nodded positively. "Was it a nightmare? Did you see them again?" Mia questioned, both worried and irritated. Ever since I began having nightmares she's been worried. Although I tried to hide it from her, it's easier said than done. Nothing goes past Mia unless she chooses to ignore it."It wasn't a nightmare, this dream was different," I immediately replied, explaining. My eyes landed on the roses beside the table, my eyebrows arching at it in confusion. "The Lycan King brought it while you were asleep. They didn't want to interrupt your sleep," s

    Alec's POVI stood by the doorway, leading to Ember's room quietly as I watched her sleep, a proud look on my face. It is of no doubt that Tyler and I were the luckiest men in the world to have her as our mate. Although, she barely acknowledged us her mate but it didn't mean I'll throw in the towel easily. Even if it takes years to finally get her to fall in love with us, I'll be by her side waiting. After all, I had all the time. Time was a small feat for Lycans. A sly grin formed on my face as I recalled the intimate moment we shared, right before her fight with Faye, causing blood rush down to my lower region, making me hard. Fuck! Just the mere thought of how perfect she is in my arms was enough to fuel my desire. Turning away right after it was exactly five minutes had to be the one of the hardest things I was forced to do. In all honesty, five minutes was barely enough to show her what it meant to be mine. I didn't need minutes, I needed hours, days………years, but I knew it wa

    Ember's POV"Murderer!" They all yelled at me, calling me names and throwing things at me as they dragged me around.The pain, the shame, the torment, I could feel them all as tears rolled down my eyes in torrents."I didn't kill him. Please, believe me, I didn't kill him," I kept saying but no one was ready to listen to me. They were all convinced that I was the murderer, and whatever I said only aggravated them more.How could I possibly kill a man that loved me and treated me just like his daughter when I had no one. How can they believe I could possibly kill him?In the midst of the insults and shame, I saw Brandon and Emily standing aside, kissing, and giggling at whatever it is they found funny. I gritted my teeth in anger, remembering it all.It was all because of them!Everyone turned on me and my unborn babies because of them.They set me up!I gritted my teeth in anger, the betrayal I felt drowning the pain I felt from how I was being treated by the pack members. The pain co

    Ember's POV"Are you sure you're okay, Ivy?" Everest eyed me suspiciously. I haven't been myself since Alec and Tyler left. I kept zoning out and thinking about how good it felt when they both kissed me. I never felt this good when Brandon kissed me.This all felt different and the thought of it alone drives me nuts.How could they spark up this much emotion in me all at once?"Ivy Rose?" Everest called, bringing me back to reality."I'm fine, Everest," I assured him, smiling tight-lipped."Liar," he muttered under his breath, not saying it out loud but I could hear him. How was I to tell him that Alec and Tyler were the sole reason I was this way? I couldn't possibly tell him all the inhumane things they did to my poor, innocent body.We stood outside the sparring grounds, just at the entrance. Faye was already on the sparring grounds warming up, the guards and servants gathered around and filled the seats to watch the fight, cheering loudly for her. But for some reason, it did nothi

    Ember's POV "You know Ivy, you still have a chance to back out of the fight and save your pretty face, the horror you're about to put it through," Mia said, helping me dress up."I'm already as nervous as it is and the last thing I want is for you to give me more reasons to be scared, Mia," I replied, frowning. "If you're not going to encourage me I'd rather not hear you talk," I added. "I'm just watching out for you," she muttered under her breath, frowning and I remained silent, not saying anything. I knew better than anyone else that she was simply scared for me and I wouldn't blame her. Who wouldn't be scared at the knowledge of fighting a Lycan known as a demon. No matter how brave I'm trying to be, I still can't help but be equally scared. Mia was right, I still had the chance to back out now but it was not an option for me. “How about this; I add some laxative to Faye's meal. It would give you more chances of winning and coming out of the fight with a less battered face,"
