Luke’s POV“Luke, what are you doing? Jared isn't at home. I thought you knew about this. He said nothing about you coming over” Amelia said to me standing at the doorstep and nodded my head. I wasn't here for Uncle Jared. I was here for Kate because I knew she would be at home. Uncle must have gone out to take care of his businesses which was a good thing, now I can get to be with his daughter alone and finally check if what Silas had told me was true.I was concerned, not just about what he had revealed about my parents but what he had revealed about Kate and her father as well. I wish my mom was here so I will not hesitate to ask her so many questions. She never told me that she was a thing with Jared and her uncle never told me. I only got to know about Kate’s mother from my father when he was arguing with my mother. Sometimes they argued a lot. So many secrets that I just can't wrap my fingers around.“I did not come for Uncle Jared. He clearly told me that he won't be back unti
Kate's POV He was asking too many questions as if he would be honest with his answers if I were to throw my questions at him. He wanted to know what I was doing with the lighter. I used it to burn my skin because somehow it keeps me calm. I have anxieties because of my father and since I cannot put them away at the moment I have to do things to hurt myself just so I can calm my nerves. It was only Amelia who knew this and even though she had tried so hard for me to stop, it was just impossible. I can't stop it. I have gone too far to even try. The times he had hooked me up with those men I ended up hurting myself just so he would assume that I had sex with them. My father was a sadist, he enjoyed it when I was in pain. The only way that I could prove that I was in pain was to cut myself every single time till I got used to doing it.I don't want to tell him that side of me but after hearing what he just said I was confused. He had admitted that I was his mate. That was not somethin
Kate's POVFor a moment, I could not bring myself to speak. I wondered why he was asking me such a question. It was pretty obvious that I was fond of Silas and he was to be trusted. I don't know why I feel close to him so much that I would secretly wish that he was my father but I know that was not true. Silas has never been linked to any woman. I don't even think he has a mate.“ Yes I trust him so much, don't you trust him as well? Has he done anything to make you doubt his trust or something?” “No, he hasn't”“ I did not know you were going to meet up with Silas, does my father know about this? You know how he can be when he finds out that you are meeting up with this enemy, and Silas is a friend of the Alpha. He wouldn't want him to think that you are betraying him right?” I don't know if my Father was capable of hurting Luke, but then I know he was capable of hurting people. I don't know how he will react if he finds out that Luke has betrayed him. I just don't want him to end
Jared's POVLooking at the envelope that was sent to my office I wonder who had sent it. Opening the envelope, I took out a note that read. ‘You are being betrayed’I was confused about who must have sent this to me and who was betraying me, could it be my daughter? Kate has always been strange and mysterious. I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up betraying me one day, even the way she looks at me. There was just something odd about it. However we both know that we don't like each other, we always put on an act just so actively and not with so many questions in the back.If the pack members find out that I don't like my daughter and that we are not on good terms they might not agree with my plans. That would ruin the future of the Pack. When Alpha Laurent is no longer alive He would have gone to join that bitch, Zara Maria. I was lost in thought wondering what to do with what I had received and if I should investigate it when a knock came on the door. Richard barged into my office wi
Jared's POVMy eyes widened and my jaw dropped but I was quick to close my mouth. I would not want him to find out that he is close to the truth. If he finds that out then I'll be at his mercy. He will be the one who is in charge and that is something that I would not let happen instead I'll get rid of Richard if that is what it takes.“What did he just say?’ I'm pretty sure I heard him perfectly but I still wanted to make sure what he found out was the truth so that I would know what my next would be. I am running out of time. I had to meet with the others, especially with her. She had the same passion as Luna.“I am sure you heard me. I know about your son, you might have kept it away from the pack and even away from your daughter but we both know that the young man you brought to the Alpha's house the other night. What is his name? Luke, is it?” he pretended to be in thought for a moment. “He is your son, you obviously want to make yourself king and then in time to come, you will m
Riley's POV“What do you want?” I glared at the familiar figure sitting in his car waiting for me. He had texted me earlier that we should meet up. I wanted to ignore his text but I didn't want him bothering my phone every now and then, so I decided to pick up and show up in this Alley.“I haven't seen much of you around even the other day, I had dinner at the Alpha's house, Riley. I didn't see you. I was hoping to see you when you serve me” Jared smiled and I rolled my eyes. “I wasn't around, tell me what the hell you want so that I can go back, the last time I remember I told you not ever contact me again, what you had with him –*“Is what?” He boorishly cut me off. I was pissed off. Here I was thinking that after the whole incident with Richard in the Alpha's house. I will finally get to sleep in my bed and forget about everyone. The only person I wanted to think about was Zander and our adventure outside the pack. I wasn't hoping to get a text but now I did, and I'm here. I was
Riley's POVTurning around, I looked at him. I don't know what crazy madness had gotten into his head but somewhere in my heart, I knew what was in that gun it wasn't just an ordinary bullet. He must have planned this, of course, how can I have been so stupid and come here unprepared. I forgot that I was dealing with Jared and the bastard was always up to no good. He did not just have blood on his hands, he was born with blood on his hands, someone like him was no longer human or even a werewolf. He was a monster and the Alpha hadn't realized that he had held a deep grudge for him, and his entire family. He will stop at nothing until he wipes out everyone in the Alpha’s bloodline. I am just feeling pity for the woman who has found out she was his mate because she was just going to end up like Zara Maria.“What are you planning to do? Do you want to shoot me? Are you going to kill me just like you killed Zara Maria? Where are you going to hide my body, is it going to be along the way o
Kate's POVI was tired. It was a good thing I had not decided to wait for my father to have my dinner, otherwise, I would have been hungry and still pacing around waiting for him. He hasn't returned back home. I was not worried. I wish he would never return or I would end up hearing that he got into an accident and died on the spot. I remember when I would sit served by the windowsill almost every night talking to the moon goddess about the possible way she would make him die, never to return but every time I seemed to say that prayer he came back home even looking healthy and fresh. I grew tired because I wished all these things to him yet nothing was happening. The moon goddess was by his side and he was growing stronger, becoming more powerful he was intoxicated by power. It was obvious, I saw it in his eyes.I just don't know when this started or if it has something to do with the organization he had joined. All I know was that Jared was a bastard and I really hope that he dies i
Maeve's POVI don't know how long I have been here. All I know is that I was feeling body aches from the tortures that Avery and Jared had inflicted on my body. I can never believe that she was still going back to her old ways. I thought she had changed for good, never would I have believed her that she was still the same person.She deceived me. Every single night I will sit in the cell crying and hoping for the day that Laurent will come and rescue me so that I will go home. I was almost falling sick, at first I did not know what she wanted. Now I realized that she wanted to kill me just like Jared had killed Zara Maria. He confessed everything to me, he was building an army so that he could take over the Alpha's throne. “Hello, dear sister”“Don't you dare call me your sister, you are not my sister we are nothing to each other, so you can never be my sister because they my step sisters has a good heart, you have no heart at all”“Shut up! You two bring her out and chain her to the
Maeve's POVWhen the bell rang that morning, everyone in the house was already downstairs and in the kitchen Lucia stood by the door crying. It was six in the morning when the maid servant's body was found in the kitchen. I could not bring myself to speak. I couldn't fathom it, I had seen her yesterday and she even served me dinner. We talked briefly since I wasn't really close to her. I was close to Grace, Riley and Lucia. Grace and I might have settled our differences in the past after she came out from the dungeon.What surprised me was how the maid servant had died, the doctor had ruled her death as homicide. Someone had poisoned her drink. I was not hungry last morning. Since I found out I had been pregnant I had lost my appetite and most times I don't even care for anything to eat for breakfast. Other times I just want to drink water. The other day I had asked Lucia to get candy from the store across the street. That was my breakfast, I had weird cravings. Something like this
Kate’s POVWhen the doorbell rang, I looked around but Amelia wasn't coming out, standing up from the couch I walked towards the door. I have been awake for a long while. After what Jared had tried to do to me but then I haven't really been outside, it has been Luke who has been getting almost everything for me. I moved in with him and Amelia moved into the other apartment she was ready to go back to school finish up and find a good man. I was happy for her I supported her dreams I'm glad that she was not going back to my father, everything I want to tell the Alpha,, I have told Silas since he ended up being my father and I trusted him that it was going to reach the Alpha's ear and they will have to get rid of Jared once and for all.The only person I pity in all of this is Luke. I was angry that he was Jared's Son at first, but it wasn't his fault, besides he never judged me when I was Jared’s daughter. He took me like his mate and always showered me with love and kisses all the t
Avery's POVLeaning against the door, I listened In. Jared was right there was not much time we needed to find a way to end everything. My sister would have to die tomorrow during breakfast otherwise she is going to give birth to that bastard in her womb. I can't believe that she was already pregnant. Maeve and the Alpha share a close bond. How wouldn't they When Silas was always around being nosy and giving advice when needed. I see the way Laurent looks at her it is different, his eyes filled with love. It made me sick to the stomach. I wanted him to look at me like that. When we manage to get her out of the way I think Silas should die. I don't think Jared should let him live just as he planned otherwise that man is going to be a big problem for us, whatever he is planning must be something huge as well, moving away from the door I took out my phone and gave Jared a call as I walked into my room shutting the door.“It better be good that you are calling me distracting me from my p
Laurent's POVI was in the study trying to sort us some things when a knock came on the door. I looked up, a smile lingering on my lips. I knew that would be Maeve. She must have come to serve me my favorite coffee. I always take it before going to bed. Sometimes it helped me focus on what I was doing. There was a lot to do in the pack. A lot Silas and I were trying to figure it out together.However, the smile on my face quickly faded away as my eyes fell on Avery walking into the room. I wasn't exactly sure what she was doing here. She has been here for more than two weeks now and although I was still uncomfortable with her presence. I don't expect her to be the one serving coffee. If there was something wrong with Maeve then Lucia, Grace, or any of the other maid's servants should do it and not her.“What are you doing here?” I looked up at her and she smiled. Maeve was not feeling fine and I decided to come over here. She needed me to come to serve your favorite coffee I was abo
Riley's POVAnger seeped through me as I looked at the man who had dragged me out of the car like some slut. I don't know what his problem was. I haven't seen him all day for a while now ever since the last time I went to meet up with Jared. I have tried to get in contact with him so that we can talk but then that has not been possible. He seemed to have gone MIA and I had no way to reach him even if I knew where he could be I would never want to go to Richard. I don't want to hear stories and neither would I want anything to happen between us. I never want to end up feeling as if I had betrayed Zander. I was being way too careful.“What the hell do you think you are doing?” I was mad at him not because of what Jared had said to me that night but because of the way he was dragging me out of the car. Sometimes, I wonder if he was losing a knot or perhaps he would want to have his head checked during the next pack doctor's visit.“ We need to talk”“I'm kind of in a hurry now, so why do
Riley's POVThe foolish b**** thought that I was in this game together with her but she was mistaken. The only reason why I was trying to make her feel as if we could be a team and then end her sister was so she could end up blowing up her cover. I will have to tell Maeve that her sister has not repented and in fact, only came here because she had an ulterior motive probably to take away what was hers.“I don't know what you're talking about. I love my sister so much and I would not want to do anything” Avery's tears become teary This was exactly what I was talking about, girls like her would never change at all. They would always want to play the victim and even try to deceive other people. However, I have lived long enough never to be deceived by girls like her. I don't know how manipulative they can be and I know they want something.I wonder how Maeve didn't realize that her sister was a devil in disguise and if she was here right now it only meant that she was going to ruin her.
Riley's POVWhen I had the doorbell. I looked up the stairs smiling, Angel was going to come down in a bit which meant she was going to see her Prince Charming Zander, and we'd get to have a little picnic together. She had been waiting for it for so long. Angel and I have drawn closer, I feel like I have known her all through my life but that was not possible. We only just met the other week when I got back home. They both have been spending time together at first I thought Maeve would not like it but she has no problem with it and even loves that Angel was trying to mingle with a lot of people in the pack. She was used to being the maidservant and was always in the kitchen helping Lucia and even making Grace smile or she was with me or in the garden trying to pluck some vegetables.Opening the door, I was surprised to see an unfamiliar woman standing there with a suitcase. For a moment I wondered if she had lost her way and was at the wrong house.This was Alpha Laurent's house and h
Luke's POVI was happy that Zander let me go and I loved this little chat that we had, it's made us draw closer to each other, when I was heading out I saw Jason at the door. He was getting a copy of the daily paper. There was nothing fun that was going to be written in there, at least it wasn't going to reveal all of Jared's corrupt ways so there was no point in standing there and reading it. I need to get justice for Kate, ever since he hurt Kate, I have not come in contact with Jared.I have tried so much to stay away from him but he has been ringing up my phone, texting me but I was not in the mood to talk to him. All I did was erase his message without even going through it. He was a fool to think that he would hurt Kate and then expect me to come to him and play with him, that was never going to happen.I thought about this carefully before making a move. I know what this might be for me. I might end up in Jared's hand and I will never have to come out again, but then I was goin
