My heartbeats are racing so fast. It took me for a minute before I could utter some words. Willow was still crying, kneeling on his knees.“H-how, did that happen? Why did you kill her?” I asked and Willow lifted his chin to stare at me deep into my eyes.“Last night in the forest. I was strolling through the forest to make sure that no enemies were there, when I accidentally met a wolf. She attacked me and I killed her. It was late for me to find out that she was my mate when she already shifted into her human form.”I covered my mouth with my hands in shock. I don't know what to say from what happened towards Willow. It's unfortunate. It's excruciating that he killed his own mate. He's in pain and I could feel that he growls now. The way he shed tears. My brother was in great pain and the anger I felt for him faded away.“I am really sorry for what happened, Willow…” He tilted his head and was still looking at me.“Tell me what I should do, Margaux? Should I end my life now because
The sun was about to set, yet I still couldn't find Willow. I have been searching for him through the forest but there's no hint of my brother anymore. My legs tremble when there are negative thoughts popping into my head. Tears already formed in my eyes as fears crawl over my skin. I wasn't this scared when I went back after being gone for three years.Willow scared me so much now. I don't want something bad to happen to him. He's still my brother and losing him would hurt me.“Where the heck are you, Willow? Show up to me… Please.” I beg while bursting and after a while, I suddenly heard footsteps in my back. My heart skipped a beat as I observed someone behind me. I am also preparing myself for the possibility that this might be an enemy, not until he speaks.“Damn, you are here, Margaux.”Tears streamed in my face when I heard that familiar voice of a man. The man I was longing for three years—Alpha Jace. I couldn't believe that he follows me here.Alpha Jace kneeled in front of m
Tears streamed to my eyes as I was caught in Jace's arms. It just feels so good being in his arms. His warmth gave me so much joy. I want to stay forever in his arms but I know this is all wrong. There is no way I am letting my enemy near me.But it's Alpha Jace. The man whom I loved three years ago. I admit that I am still longing for him. He was the one I wanted to be mated with and now that he was our chosen mate, why did I become this cold-hearted? “If I just can turn back the time, Margaux, I'd rather not hurt you. But it was too late to do that. I was such a jerk for hurting you, and I have regretted very much what I've done with you.” As Jace mumbled those words, I took the opportunity to escape from his arms but this time I had no plan of escaping. It's useless to do that because Jace will probably run after me.“Let's not talk about that, Jace and you knew that I couldn't still forgive you. None from the pack because all those things that happened to me from three years ago
Alpha Jace's kisses went down at the valley of my breast, making me grasp the grass using my hand. I was in deep pleasure now making it hard for me to push him away. Jace was undeniably hot and there's no other way I could refuse him now. I will bear the consequences of my actions.“Just tell me to stop,” he whispered through my ear but I just shook my head away. I didn't want to stop it because I am starting to love it.“No please."A crook smile formed on Jace's lips after I mentioned those words. Despite how dark the place was, I am grateful because we have an enhanced vision to be able to see the dark. And that's why I saw him smirk earlier.“Oh, Jace.”I can no longer control myself to groan in pleasure anymore when Jace traced a line from the valley of my breast until to my stomach. He even takes my breast, gently brushing its peak with his tongue. The way he does that makes me lift my body a bit. Everything that I feel now was unfamiliar for me. I haven't experienced this even
My legs were aching from running so long now, searching for my brother Willow. After I ran away from Jace, I didn't go back and just continued looking for Willow. But I gave up when I found no one. My body was so tired from so many events that happened earlier and my center was still aching. I have to go back to the house to rest even though I still wanted to look for my brother.I worried a lot about him but I don't know where to find him. Tears streamed down my face when negative thoughts echoed into my head. I didn't want to overthink and as long as I can, I will stay positive that Willow is still alive.Luna takes a deep breath and speaks. “Stop overthinking, okay? I have this feeling that Willow is still alive. He just needed to find himself and mourn for his mate.”I let out a deep breath after Luna told me those words. She was right on the other hand. I know that Willow won't take his life and I will trust the moon goddess that she will do something to help my brother to find h
It took me for about a minute before I could utter a word. My heart was pounding so fast that I couldn't even hear the exact words that my mom had mentioned.“Hey, Margaux, can you still hear me?” Mom snapped her fingers in front of me that helped me to wake up from my deep thoughts. I could even feel my face reddened when my mother smirked.“Whatever you're thinking, Mom, stop it.” I retorted and she just laughed.“I didn't say anything, Darling. You are just being so defensive,” she teases me, but I just shook my head.“Where's that jerk? I will push him away. He must not be here.” I uttered while walking my feet away from the room. The moment that I am about to step my foot at the door of our living room when my mom speaks up.“I don't know if you can still push him, Margaux.” Mom muttered.I just shook my head and continued my moves to face him. Even though I didn't want to face him after what we did last time. But I had to. He must realize that what happened to both of us from la
Jace already left the house but I was still standing there and couldn't digest the words he mentioned. I was heartbroken for some reason that I didn't want to hurt him. This is maybe because he's my mate and we are connected to each other. That's maybe the reason why I felt this sudden pain from the words he let out.“Margaux,” I was aback from having a deep thought when mom spoke at my back. “Can we talk?”I looked at her and saw mom's pleading eyes. She was asking me to talk to her, so I cleared my throat before nodding my head.Mom seated down the couch, so I followed her. I already knew that my mother would talk about me and Alpha Jace.“What do you want to tell me, Mom?” I asked in my calmed voice. Mom reached out for my hands, so I gave it to her. She was holding my hands now while staring at me deeply in my eyes.“I know that you are so mad with Alpha Jace because of what happened in the past,” she started and I just listened to her. “But, it is very important that you listen t
I could feel my heart skip a beat by the words that he mentioned. Jace was the only man who always mesmerized me and I couldn't find the exact words to respond.“W-what are you saying, Jace?” I asked in my shaking voice. Jace just chuckled and that made me turn my head away. I had no plan to embarrass myself in front of him, in front of my enemy.“Are you sure you are still treating him as your enemy, Margaux?” Luna asked at the back of my head, so I shook it off.“This is not your business, Luna.” I scolded her but Luna doesn't seem to care about it. She just laughed and went back to sleep.“Don't fool the hell out of me, Alpha Jace. Go back to the others and mind your own business. I will start my training now.”Jace just stared at me, and that confused me. I furrowed my brows as I was trying to read what was in his mind at this moment. Knowing him, Jace was hard to read so I won't be able to guess what he was thinking now. I am not a mind reader and I won't bother to read him. He's
Having Jace beside me was the most memorable experience that I have in life. Our lunch became our dinner. We both enjoyed the moment of being with each other doing anything we love at the park. The park is more beautiful and attractive at night. All the kinds of funny and thrilling yet memorable games had opened.We didn't expect that there would be a show during the night and the park sky would become colorful at midnight. They say, there would be a fireworks show later on and me and Jace decided to stay here to witness that. It's my first time seeing fireworks and I can't wait for that.“I love to see the smile on your face.”My face flushed from what Jace had uttered to me. The two of us were currently riding on a ferris wheel. I was screaming earlier but later on, I got used to it. We would like to see the fireworks here and it would be good to watch it here from above.I didn't respond from what he uttered to me. My head just shook and I turned my head to the sky. Eyes widened as
My knees were shaking when those words came out from Jace's lips. It never appears to me that he was about to say that. I just can't believe that he will tell me that I was the only woman he's obsessed with. But whatever he wants to tell me, I don't want to believe in that. I will not give in to him.“Just for once, Jace. Can you please stop talking about that? I don't want to hear all of that.”He took a deep breath and then he nodded his head to me.“Okay.”His response is short. Jace walked through his table and started his work. I have managed to focus myself on the work and didn't mind him anymore. While I was doing my work, I glanced at him and he's now busy with his work. Jace was so handsome and it cannot be denied. He looks more attractive now than before and I know he's taking good care of himself because he has no responsibility to prioritize first. Jace was no longer the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack and I am no longer the queen of the southeast kingdom.The both of us have a
His words suddenly stunned me. I never thought that Jace would say that. It never reached me that he went home to the pack. But what if he's just lying to me? Should I still believe in him? “Just shut up, Jace. Don't lie to me. Like I said, you can't make me believe in you.” I uttered, making him let out a deep. He went back to his chair and was still facing me. “It's up to you if you don't believe me, but I was telling the truth. I tried to talk to you but I found out that you're no longer the queen. Luke told me that you left too.” My heart was throbbing as those words came out from him. Jace looks sincere about what he just said. I could tell from the way he looked at me. “Whatever you say, I will no longer believe you. Find someone to fool and not me, Jace.” He took a deep breath while his eyes were still on me. “I won't force you to believe me but the goddess knows more about the truth.” My head just shook as I took a seat to which I thought would be my office. “So, tell m
Jace didn't speak after those words came out from me. We focused ourselves back to the way until we arrived at our destination. Jace and I entered a tall and beautiful building which I thought could be Jace's company. I didn't know that he could run a company. It's just been a while that we haven't seen each other.“Welcome to my company, Margaux.”I just looked at him when Jace said those words. My eyes turned to those people who are now looking at me. I could feel from their eyes that they were wondering who I was. My face is not familiar to them and they are maybe wondering what I am doing here.“You don't have to say that. I don't feel like being here, and if I just had the option to disagree, I'd probably do that.”Jace just let out a deep breath after I mentioned that. He typed something that opened the door in front of us. It was an elevator and Jace motioned me to walk first. I didn't complain and just followed him. Inside, I made sure that I left a three inch gap from him. It
Jace didn't know how much I wanted to hug him now. The feelings that I have felt for him even before were still there. It cannot be removed, but the pain couldn't be forgotten. He hurt me so badly. I don't know how I could forget about it.“Just leave.”I still insisted on pushing him away. There's no way that I will allow him to come so close to me. I just don't want it. I'm scared that I might give in and do something that could hurt me once again. What we both have now is better for the both of us. It's better that we are not together because I don't know what will happen to us in the future again.“Margaux, please. You just have to listen to me.”I sent him a deathly glare of still pushing to talk to me. Jace doesn't want to give up and he's just making me so mad to him even more.“Just please, leave me alone, Jace. I don't want to talk about us, okay?”Jace took a deep breath and turned his back to leave. I don't care if I was rude to him. It doesn't matter to me if he saved me f
Grabbing all the strength left in me, I stood up from my chair and started walking through the glass wall of this office where I could see the view from the outside, particularly the whole city. Natalie followed me and she stood next to me while watching the outside view.“Don't mind about Mr. Jace, Natalie. Whatever you saw from him earlier might not be real. It doesn't mean anything. His stare on me has no meaning at all.” I responded, and Natalie smiled at me.Her eyes were still at the outside view and I have no idea what this woman was thinking about. She's maybe a human being but like I said, it's hard to read one's mind if you have no ability to read.“I'm just teasing you, Margaux. Don't take it seriously, but knowing that you will work on him, there's a possibility that something will happen.”I could feel my eyes reddened from what she said and heart throbbing. Natalie was just kidding me but the reaction of my heart does not seem to be right.“That wouldn't happen. I'm just
Natalie and I turned our gaze towards the man who entered our office. My mouth fell open when I saw him. Jace was there. He's standing in front of us and my heart was beating so fast seeing his face.“Jace—I mean, Mr. Jace, what are you doing here?” I asked, making him put his hands inside of his pockets. His reaction was still the same. I still couldn't tell what he was thinking right now.“Do you need anything from us, Mr. Jace?” Natalie asked him but I noticed the spark in her eyes.Jace didn't speak to respond to one of us. Instead, he waited for Cole to enter, so we looked at him. My reaction was filled with confusion. I was wondering what brought Jace here in our office.“Natalie, Margaux… Mr. Jace wants to say something. We already done talking at the office earlier and we had agreed,”My heart throbbed after hearing those words from Cole. I just can't wait for him to continue whatever he's going to tell us. But I noticed something. I feel like whatever Jace wanted to tell us,
I could feel the pain because of the way they pulled my hair. These girls don't want to let go of me and I don't know why. I don't know what I have done to make them this mad.“You're not leaving us!”“You have no respect, huh.”Grimacing, I manage myself to control myself from getting mad. They pushed me so hard. I have almost hit the sink, but using my strength, I have tried my best to control my body. This group of women were not satisfied. One of them grasped my hand, forcing me to look at them. Two of them held me both in my hands, while the other one was already in front of me. Their looks seemed threatening to me.“What do you guys want from me?” I asked, controlling myself to raise a voice.The one in front of me, crossed her arms and formed a smirk on her lips. She shook her head as she spoke to me.“Have you not heard what we said earlier?” She asked me.I let out a deep breath, closed my eyes to calm my shaking nerves. They didn't know that I really hated bullies. I have le
Tears wanted to fall from my eyes, but I have tried my best to control it from falling down. I don't want to cry in front of him nor let him know that I was still affected by him. The game that he's playing now, I was able to play it without losing it. Jace can't make me fall down.A deep breath had escaped from me after he's gone away. I couldn't see him anymore, which was also a perfect time that Cole had arrived. His hand was on my shoulder, making me turn my head in his direction. His eyes furrowed, with a glimpse of questions deep inside.“Are you okay?”Cole was asking me, so I took a deep breath before responding to him.“Yeah, I am. By the way, what happened? I thought you and Mr. Jace would talk more about—”Cole already cut me from talking before I could finish whatever I wanted to say about.“Mr. Jace told me that we will continue our discussion soon. He will set an appointment because there was an important thing he needed to attend.”Even though I already know what Jace's
