My head turned at the door and saw Jace there. I felt my face brighten up seeing the man that I missed so much. Jace walked near us and I hugged him tightly that made him chuckle.“I missed you, Jace.”He hugged me tightly and I cried in his chest. I don't even understand myself. We were just apart from each other for just an hour and I couldn't explain how I missed him.“I missed you too, baby, but you have to know something.”I let go of him from what he had said. My heart is pounding so fast deep within my heart as I look at him.“W-What do you mean, Jace?”Jace held both of my hands and I just stared at him. I have this feeling that whatever Jace would like to tell me is significant and I can't wait to know about it.“I found the killer of your brother and uncle, Margaux. We brought him with us earlier.” Jace responded.My jaw clenched and my eyes darkened in anger. I would never expect to hear these words from him. Jace brought the killer of my brother and uncle. I can't wait to
Another laugh coming from Jack echoed through my ears. I could feel my teeth gritted from what he did, my fists clenched and my eyes darken while staring at him. He is not the Jack that I have met before. The Jack in front of me was no longer the same before.He's now become evil. He killed two important people in my life. Now he's going to pay for it.“How could you do this to me, Jack? I treated you as my friend. I owe you everything before, but not anymore and all this time, you're just the one who killed them. You're just beside us, spying on us and planning who to kill next. But not anymore because you're caught, Jack.”Hatred for Jack had filled my heart. I couldn't explain in words how I hated him now. If I couldn't control myself, I would kill the hell out of him now.“Should I repeat it again, Margaux? I killed them because I want you to feel the pain that I have felt all this time. You break me and in return, I will break you too by killing your loved ones!” He said, and tha
My hands wrapped around Jace's neck to support my shaking legs. He even wraps his hands around my waist and we both savor each other's lips. It feels so good to be kissed by the man you love and Jace will be the only man whom I am going to love even for the rest of my life. To the man who called me Lilian, he's no one and I shouldn't be afraid of him because I have an alpha king.“I love you, baby,” he whispered in my ear, which made me smile. We already parted our lips from each other.“I love you too.”Jace gave a kiss on my forehead before he took my hand. We walked back to the pack to where the others were waiting for us. They are still there and the male wolves clean the field to where I killed Jack.My family approached us and I could see in their faces how worried they were towards me.“I finally give Willow and Uncle Joe's death a justice. Jack was already dead and it was still surreal to me that all this time, the man that I have trusted most was the enemy.”As I was saying t
Jace brought me back to our cabin after talking to dad. We are now sitting on his couch to rest and even now, I still couldn't explain the happiness deep inside my heart for the Alpha's plans. He's willing to be mated with me and I couldn't wait for that.“Do you want to eat something, baby?”I turned my head to Jace when he spoke and a smile formed on my lips seeing his sweet smile. His smile removed the pain from my heart.“I'm still not hungry, Jace. You should be the one eating now knowing that you came from traveling.”Jace shook his head and walked near me. He held my hands and stared at me deeply into my eyes.“I won't eat unless you join me, Margaux.”I laughed at him. Jace really didn't want to eat alone and who am I to resist him?Knowing that man, I know he's serious with his words, so I stood up and walked in the kitchen to prepare his food. I was happy because we didn't starve no matter how far we moved. Werewolves had no address. Anytime, we have to move, especially when
“I came here not as your enemy, but as your companion, Alpha Jace.”That man named Alpha George shocked me. I wasn't expecting that because he's a rival of this pack and why on earth did he say that?“Don't fool me.”Jace's deep voice sent shivers throughout my system that made me turn my head in his direction. I know he's just keeping his composure but deep inside he's burning in anger.“I wasn't, Alpha Jace. In fact, we are here to finally cooperate with you. Is this what you want, isn't it?”Everyone is listening to the conversation between Alpha Jace and Alpha George. I was preparing myself if ever they do something terrible.“Yes, but not anymore. I won't trust an enemy because I am so done with it. In fact, your pack was nothing compared to my pack.” Jace said toward Alpha George.“Yes, you are right, but somehow I know that you are needing me. The information that I have right now would be helpful, Alpha Jace.”However, Alpha George doesn't want to give up. It seemed like I cou
The one who reopened the Kingdom of Southeast was an enemy. It would only bring destruction and why on earth would they shoot the werewolves?“They're maybe enemies,” I said, and they turned their heads in my direction. Alpha George and his allies nodded their heads to agree with me.“We aren't sure about that and the only way to find out is to check the kingdom.” I nodded my head from what Jace had told us.“You must be extra careful, Alpha Jace because we didn't know what awaits us in that place. I am certain that they enhanced their parameters, so no one from the packs could enter the kingdom.” Alpha George responded to Jace.“I don't care about that, Alpha George, and I will only believe you once I witness it with my own eyes.”A deep breath escaped from my throat as Jace had mentioned. He doesn't want to believe Alpha George. However, I know deep within my heart that this Alpha in front of us was telling the truth. He won't risk his life just to fool us.“Jace, I think he's telli
It is wrong to build hatred towards your mother just because she forgets to tell you a story of the kingdom of the Southeast. I hated to admit, but that's what I felt right now. I didn't know what was my mother's reason for not telling me about it.Mom just maybe forgot about it. It's not serious and I wanted to believe myself that my mother just forgot it, but my heart felt the opposite way. It seems like she has other personal reasons and I would like to ask her about it. I would like to know what pushes her to keep the story of our ancestors before.“You know what, Jace, it doesn't matter. I shouldn't think about that goddamn kingdom.” I uttered. Jace held my hand and then he kissed the back of it.My face reddened because of what he did and I immediately turned my head away. Jace and I have been together for how many weeks, but I still can't prevent myself from feeling ashamed of him. His presence was like making my body so weak.“I love you, Margaux, and I didn't want you to worr
My brows furrowed from Jace's facial reaction. He messed up his hair, washed his face with his hands and walked near my direction. I cross my arms as I look at him.“Jace, is everything alright?”“Uhm, yes, of course. I just go out for a moment to check the surroundings.” I nodded my head from what Jace had told me. Although I wasn't convinced by his alibis for some reasons, I realized that I shouldn't think that way. Jace was telling the truth and I shouldn't have doubted him.“It was still the middle of the night, Jace, and let's get back from sleeping.” I said and he just looked at me. Jace nodded his head, so I turned my head back to the bed when Jace immediately grabbed my hand. I turned my gaze back to him with my curious reaction.“I have something to show to you, baby,”I furrowed my brows while staring at his face. My heart started pounding so fast as I felt something from him.“W-What is that?” I asked, but Jace just smirked. He starts pulling my hand and I have left no oth
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
