All the things that I have learned was absurd. I couldn't believe that this is even happening to me. I couldn't stop to ask myself why I should have to experience all of this?Is it the punishment of the goddess? But what did I do wrong?“Hush, please… I am here, baby.”However, I am grateful that Jace was next to me. He was there when I was in my sorrow. It is very unfortunate that I wouldn't be given a chance to meet my real mother.“I am sorry for hiding the truth from you, darling. I hope you understand why I have to do that.”My head turned back to mom when she mentioned those words. I bit my bottom lips and let out a deep breath. Jace let me go, so I could talk to mom.“No, mom. You don't have to ask for an apology. I totally get why you have to do that. I understood that you did your promise toward my real mother. Although you are not my real mother, my love for you and the family won't change. All of you are my family, maybe not in blood, but in heart.” Mom couldn't control h
I lifted my chin from what my mother, Catherine, had mentioned. I don't feel anything deep inside my heart about my father as a demon.He doesn't fear me and now that I know who he was, there is nothing to be scared about.“Your mother was right, Margaux. We should be prepared if you ever meet him again.”I grit my teeth once again when Luna speaks at the back of my head.“I am always ready, Luna. You don't have to tell me about it because I am so prepared for anyone who wants to attack me.” I responded to her.Luna just sighed and I just focused back on my mother who was still worried in front of me. I know that she was thinking about my protection and now that I know about my identity, she will become more worried.“There's nothing to be worried about me, mom. I can handle myself and just trust me.”Mom nodded her head in response. She hugged me again and after that, I walked to where Jace was. He's staring at me and his eyes filled with worries.“Are you alright?”He immediately as
It was dark outside and everyone was asleep. The guardians of the pack were awake at this hour to stroll the area and make sure of the security of the pack. Jace was beside me and asleep. I know it's because he's tired. His wound had already been treated earlier, and we were both asleep in the room.I have been awake since earlier because I can't fall asleep. All the information that I have heard earlier is still in my head. I still can't forget it and it bothers me so much.“You should be sleeping, Margaux, because you have done many things earlier.”Those words were uttered by my wolf, that made me let out a deep breath. I tried to close my eyes, but still couldn't fall asleep, so I decided to stare at Jace.His handsome face made me smile. I couldn't stop caressing his face and that woke him up. Jace furrowed his brow, which made me smile.“You're still awake, baby? Why are you not sleeping?”I smiled from his query before letting out a deep breath.“I can't sleep, Jace, but don't
Taking a bath with the man you love is the best moment that you could have. Jace and I spent almost two hours inside the bathroom, showering while making love. I never felt tired from what we did because I enjoyed this moment. There's something deep inside that this would be the last shower that Jace and I would share. I know that it is not good to overthink, but I just couldn't stop myself.I really felt something would about to happen and I know my instincts. It is sometimes real.“It is not good to overthink, Margaux. You have to stop whatever you're feeling now. This will only bring distraction to you.”Luna uttered, so I nodded my head while letting out a deep breath. Jace was outside of the cabin because he was currently discussing with the other werewolves. They have plans on how they are going to tighten the security of the pack against the enemies. I was left here and will come out of the cabin later.“You know, it's kind of bothering me a lot, Luna. Knowing that we have so m
Liezel, the woman that Alpha Clauss had called earlier, ran in Jace's direction to hug my mate. I suddenly feel my hands clenched into fists seeing that scene.“How are you, Jace? I missed you.”I grit my teeth after she said that. This woman had the courage to hug my mate and she's making my blood boil. No one should dare to hug my mate in front of me.“Excuse me?”I have decided to speak up, so Jace pushed the woman away from her. He may have realized that I was next to him.“You shouldn't hug me, Liezel.”I looked at Jace when he uttered that. I wonder why he knew this woman.“Why? Don't you miss me?” Liezel asked and she doesn't seem to care about me.Damn.“Why would I? Are you out of your mind? I was with my mate.” I was a bit shocked when Jace pulled me near him. Liezel turned her gaze in my direction with her furrowed brows.“This woman is your mate? Why didn't I know about this?”My eyes were with Jace and the woman in front of us. I was wondering who she was in Jace's life
I was shocked when Liezel sat next to my mate. My blood boils because of what she did but I don't want to act rude in front of them. I still respect her, although this woman had no respect for me.“It is inappropriate if you sit down next to the Alpha, Liezel.”Clauss complained, which made the woman roll her eyes. She moved away and I was relieved by that.“Let's talk about your purpose of being here, Alpha Clauss.” Jace uttered, and everyone listened. I was just next to my mate, simply observing Liezel, who kept on staring at Jace. I don't like the way she looks at my man, but as I said, I won't do anything against her unless I lose my temper.“As I said earlier, Alpha Jace, I wanted to ask for a favor if my sister could stay here for a while. Her case in the pack was still being processed and once done, I will take her here and bring her back to the pack.”I let out a deep breath after I heard those words from Alpha Clauss. I wanted to disagree with allowing this woman knowing that
The sister of Alpha Clauss was still scanning the Alpha's things, while I was still sitting on the couch. I didn't confront her and just allow her to continue what makes her happy. The way she touched my mate's things was like she owned it. When I became Jace's mate, I never touched his property and it's maybe because it wasn't my thing. I don't invade Jace's private things unless he says so. But this woman in front of me had the guts to touch the things of my mate.I was supposed to do something but I didn't want her to think that I was being greedy. I didn't mind her and focused on waiting for Jace. An hour had passed already, yet Jace and Alpha Clauss were still inside of the room.“I couldn't believe it!”I turned my gaze in Liezel's direction when she screamed. When my head was in her direction, I saw her holding a small photo. She was smiling while scanning that photo and it confused me. I was wondering what's in the picture that made her smile so widely.“Jace is still keeping
Although I wasn't hungry, I had no other option but to eat because that's what I told Jace. I told him that I'm hungry, so we can leave far from Liezel. But I realized that even if we kept avoiding Liezel, we can't do that and now that she's here living with us. Liezel would always be there and what I should do is to deal with her.She shouldn't do anything that could harm us, or else I will be the one that she was going to face.Hours had passed already, and Jace went out of the cabin to keep talking towards Alpha Clauss since the Alpha was about to leave. I decided to stay inside the cabin for a while when Emerald came over with my brother. They are here in the living area, talking to me.“Mom and dad were looking for you, Margaux. They wanted to talk to you in private.”I looked at my brother Luke because of what he said. I still can't digest the things that I have learned. Luke and Willow are not my biological brothers. This is hard to believe and I don't know what to do next. I h
