Audrey gave him a light smile and nodded. One thing was for sure; she wasn't afraid to be back here again, they couldn't do anything to her anymore, but, she could not understand the strange feeling she had within her, Avery was restless too.

She hated these kinds of gatherings, she believed it was just to show off.

Alpha Lake sure outdid himself...again. She wondered if this was where they had held the full moon ceremony last year.

As they stepped inside the building, Audrey felt like she just walked into a different world.

A world of glitter, class, fashion, and sophistication.

The inside was a very big hall, it's safe to say; it could contain ten football fields.

Classy chandeliers hung on the roof, giving the decorated room a domineering atmosphere.

Everyone here was someone in the country, you had to be somebody to be able to attend the great Lake Aloha's Gala, he was the richest bachelor in the States.

Ladies were in their most expensive designer gowns, and men wore custo

    Audrey froze when she heard Alpha Sebastian call out her name. She heard his fast-approaching footsteps behind her, and she knew the moment he came to stop directly at her back that things were not going to go as smoothly as she had thought.She sat still, playing dumb to gauge if she had been busted or if he was just guessing because she still looked a little like her formal self (Okay, it's just the hair that changed...and her physique.) She should have expected this kind of thing to happen. Who was she kidding? Wolves were smart creatures, they could not be easily fooled, and after all, she was still herself, just because she changed her hair color and personality did not mean she changed her whole features.She had to thread with caution."Hello, Mr. Sebastian. This is my secretary, Catherine." Mr. Russell stood from his seat and went over to Alpha Sebastian and shook his hand. Audrey secretly let out a sigh of relief, thanking her boss inside her head for taking her away from

    After washing her hands, she dried them in the dryer and left the restroom."Humph!"Just before she could take a step from the closed door, her back collided with the wall beside the door, with her two hands pinned to the wall above her head.The familiar mint scent filled her nostrils before she even looked up. And then... She felt it. She felt the bone-weakning tingles from her wrist which was pinned above her, down to her toes, her knees threatening to melt like butter. She felt her pulse accelerate, but she pretended like she didn't feel anything and made it look like was because she had just been ambushed by a stranger. She deliberately acted like she was scared; she would rather he saw her as being startled by him than being affected by him. She would rather burn herself to ash than admit to those feelings. She wondered why the moon goddess chose to do this, was her life a sort of game to her?"Who are you?" His voice was menacing.Alpha Lake was stumped, not in his wildest

    Audrey was walking behind Andrew as he led her to the place where she would be staying for the period of her one-year contract as Alpha Lake's secretary.She had just parted with her boss after the party was over, and he had refused to let her leave with him, so she made him promise to fetch her packed bag from her apartment tomorrow."Umm, this is more like a family house, but don't worry, you'll be staying with Alp-Mr. Aloha. Trust me, his place is almost abandoned, but in a good way." Andrew told her as they reached the Packhouse.All the memories of the past came rushing through her mind as she walked into the Packhouse. She remembered how she had slaved her days away and how she had brutally been dragged to the dungeon; once again, she was reminded of the reason why she hated him.She could easily kill him with the snap of her finger, but she'd rather not waste her energy on something irrelevant, she had something more serious ahead of her and that was the reason she was here.

    4:a.m, she needed to run, she needed to run!'Damn it!'Seems like she did not think her plan through."Fuck!"She kicked the foot of the bed to assuage her anger. She knew him too well to know that this was exactly the time he went out for a morning run. But she hoped his schedule might have been adjusted on that aspect after a long time. She decided to open her door and listen in if she would hear any movement from him but the moment she opened the door, the door opposite hers was dragged open as well.Both of them stood there for a few seconds, unconsciously taking each other in, they were wolves and wolves are highly sexually active in the morning.The tension between them was palpable, Audrey was the first to break eye contact."Good morning, Mr. Aloha. Why are you up so early?" She faked a huge yawn, using the back of her hand to cover her mouth. She did not know what else to do so she decided to ask the first question and remove his attention from her and why she was up by t

    Heavy paws landed on the floor of the forest. Regal ran past trees in a blur, he was angry.Alpha Lake let his wolf take control, they were getting irritated by the situation. He was torn, he hated Audrey, yet, the moon goddess gave him a mate who looked just like her and even possessed most of her characteristics.He ran faster as he let out the suppressed frustration he had been feeling from the moment he set his eyes on Catherine, he could not bring himself to believe that Catherine was not the same person as Audrey. He ran all through the forest, trying to outrun the thoughts in his head.The way her hair looked this morning was sexy as fuck. She was acting all cute and innocent but he knew better. He had been a little disappointed when he looked up and saw the midnight-dark hair, he was expecting to see the usual red color that he normally saw on Audrey.'Fuck her!'Alpha Lake entered the Packhouse and noticed the perplexed expression on everyone's faces, he had heard a few girl

    "Come now child, it's okay, everything's going to be alright," Ms. Bridget held Audrey's shoulder and gently pushed her up, she looked at her face and smiled."Whatever changed you, did well. You look different, you feel different. I think he'll be here anytime now, tell me everything tonight, okay?" Ms. Bridget wiped away Audrey's tears and cupped her cheeks in her hands."Okay." Audrey sniffed, nodding at Ms. Bridget.Audrey was busy on her phone texting her cousins and updating them about her, so far. She heard footsteps approaching outside the door, and again, she knew who it was before he pushed open the door without knocking...as always."Good morning, Catherine. How are you enjoying your new job?" Alpha Sebastian went over to sit beside her on the sofa.He was happy Alpha Lake wasn't in yet, he wanted to chat with her a little and find out if his assumptions were real, he decided not to waste any more time like he did the last time, just in case what he suspected was right, he

    KNOCK! KNOCK!Audrey stood to answer the door when she heard the knock, she almost fell over as she suddenly felt weak in her knees.Waves of tingles moved from her wrist and spread like butterflies all over her body, she looked down to see her wrist enclosed tightly in Alpha Lake's hand.She stared at him questioningly but, he did not take his face away from the computer, neither did he take his hand off her wrist."Sit." He commanded.Audrey reluctantly sat down thinking he would release her wrist when she did so, but he held on tight, using his other free hand to scroll through his monitor.Alpha Lake knew she was not comfortable and so was he not, he only held her hand for the sake of his wolf who had been restless since the moment Audrey sat beside them, he just wanted to calm Regal down and that was it, Regal needed to feel her skin, if not he would go out of control and it wasn't all fun and games whenever he was out of control. Regal needed her, not him.Regal. He would never

    Audrey never knew Alpha Sebastian was this fun. She only knew him as the kind and handsome Alpha who she once had a crush on, she had never held a long conversation with him before to fully know his personality.But now, he seemed like a different person, carefree and fun."Then he pissed on himself in front of the girl, ha-ha-ha!" Alpha Sebastian laughed loudly."Oh no, poor Andrew, he was so drunk! I'm sure the girl left him there and then."Audrey laughed along, actually enjoying her time in the Grey Blood pack for the first time."You bet," Alpha Sebastian used his thumb to wipe a food particle from the side of Audrey's mouth and that was when Alpha Lake came through the door, watching them with hawk eyes.They did not even seem to notice his presence as they were too busy chatting happily with each other and doing their PDA.Alpha Lake lowered himself onto the empty seat beside Audrey.The temperature suddenly turned cold, making the first occupants of the table turn to him."It'

    Audrey felt herself forcefully sucked into another time and place, a battlefield filled with creatures of furry, and in that moment, she knew; she had time-traveled, but she didn't travel alone.Amid the chaotic battlefield, she heard the distant voice of Alpha Lake shouting her name from behind. She was about to turn and go to him when she heard Sandra's voice shouting for her to watch out.She immediately turned towards Sandra's direction to see what she was talking about, and, when she did, she was too late to dodge the iron spear aiming right at her chest.But when she thought she would feel the impact, it effortlessly passed through her like she was made of wind, and the next thing she heard was Alpha's Lake's familiar voice groaning loudly in pain.Without thinking, she ran towards him and fell beside him; blood was already pouring out from his mouth and nose. In despair, Audrey wanted to lift his head onto her lap, but when she went to touch him, her hand weaved through his b

    "Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! What are we going to do?!" Sandra asked anxiously, she was audibly shaking and hyperventilating.Maria was scared too, but she needed to stay calm for her powers to be effective.She quickly leaned over Audrey and tried to heal her by placing her hands over her forehead, but she instantly withdrew them from the shock she got from touching Audrey's skin.She scanned her eyes helplessly around the room, and when her eyes landed on Sandra who was busy walking back and forth and biting her nails, she suddenly remembered something."Alpha Lake!" Maria said in a shaky loud voice. She understood that only her mate could hold her at that moment."Yes? Huh! What?!" Sandra didn't understand a thing Maria said or what she was replying to either."Get yourself together and get Alpha Lake!!!" Maria shouted at Sandra. "I'm sorry, yes, Alpha Lake!" Sandra vigorously nodded and ran up the stairs.Before she could reach his door, the door was forcefully opened, and h

    Audrey was deep in thought as she walked into the long passage to Ms. Bridet's room. She didn't realize that she was being followed the moment she walked down the stairs from Alpha Lake's condo.She reached Ms. Bridge's door and absent-mindedly raised her hand to knock on the door, but before her hand could reach the door, another hand beat her to it and knocked on the door before she could.Audrey was startled and quickly looked behind her just to find Sandra staring at her with a smirk."Figured you were in your sloth era so I decided to speed things a little bit up for you," Sandra winked at Audrey.Audrey huffed in silent laughter, shaking her head at her friend."Are you okay?" Sandra asked seriously.She knew her friend was worried, it was obvious from the way she looked.Before Audrey could reply, the door behind them opened."Everything alright, children?" Ms. Bridget asked as she opened the door and saw Audrey and Sandra standing there.They never visited without a reason. A

    Maria gasped loudly; she never imagined their little conversation was going to end up that way; she turned to Mark and saw him looking unconcerned through his phone; she glared at him, blaming him for the turn of events, if he had only kept his big mouth shut, none if this would have happened.She slowly looked toward Alpha Lake; she'd heard that getting rejected by one's mate could be life-threatening, but when she looked at Alpha Lake's face, he was fucking smirking at an angry Audrey.Maybe Audrey was right in rejecting him; now he was showing his true colors, and he couldn't even pretend to be bothered by her rejection.What a scum!Audrey closed her eyes, waiting for the bone-crippling pain to pull her down to the ground but nothing happened. The only thing she felt was Avery's whiny voice giving her an earful for trying to reject their hot and sexy mate.She was surprised at that. Why was Avery thinking she was still 'trying' to reject him? She just did! That's exactly what she

    Audrey sat in the dining, slowly eating her food and staring at everyone at the table.After Mark had proved his magical ability, Sebastian had come in to discuss something with Alpha Lake and Mark. Both Alphas pretended like they hadn't wanted to cut each other's throat earlier that day.Audrey had paused their conversation, and she had dragged Maria to the kitchen; it was time for lunch, and she was starving.She silently ate her food, looking from one person to the other, she stopped at Alpha Lake and suddenly remembered the conversation she had with him on his balcony when she had given him the box that had the pictures and letters; he had told her that he'll never mate her because he'll only see her as a sister, so, does it mean they're stepcousins now?Alpha Lake felt someone staring at him and raised his head to find the familiar green eyes of his mate staring thoughtfully at him. He felt her troubled mind and he felt her indecisiveness."Are you alright, Kitten?" Alpha Lake a

    Audrey watched the surprise on Alpha Lake's face and realized that she wasn't the only one who had been blown off by the unfolding situation."Hey, chipmunk, you've grown bigger, and who the hell mated you?" Mark asked protectively."That's enough! Both of you!" Audrey went and grabbed Maria's arm, dragging her away from Mark and into the living room.Maria wanted to whine but suddenly realized the situation, she understood that she'd just landed herself into a big problem with Audrey and the Alpha.She had been carried away and didn't think about the aftermath. She understood why Audrey would be angry; if it were her, she'd feel angry and betrayed, too."Sit!" Audrey pushed Maria down on the sofa and glared at her before turning to Mark who was now standing beside her with a little smile on his lips."Hi, Catherine, or, is it Audrey now?" Mark asked, looking at her hair and her face.Alpha Lake had told him everything on their way to the Packhouse, so he knew that his little Catherin

    "You're a real witch?" Caleb asked Audrey as they stood in front of the hospital.He was holding a bottle of water in his hand, sipping gulp after gulp to rinse the nausea away."Yes, Caleb," Audrey replied."Unbelievable," Caleb said."Better believe it, hun," Maria patted his shoulder.Caleb stared at Maria and Audrey and wondered what next those two had in store for him.How was he supposed to forget what he had seen now? He did pity Adeline, but he also knew she had a dark heart; maybe she'd learn from her mistakes this one."Come on, we've got lots of things to discuss," Maria said and dragged Audrey away from the hospital, Caleb stared longingly at her as she walked away from him."I need to grab something from the kitchen, hang on," Audrey said and walked toward the kitchen as they entered the pack house."I'll come with," Maria replied and immediately followed behind.Audrey pushed open the door to the kitchen and stood frozen at the door, staring right at the table they norma

    Adeline's heart skipped a beat as she heard what Caleb had said.What did he find out?She panicked internally; she had been so blinded by jealousy that she didn't take her time to come up with a fail-proof plan. And, now, it looked like this stupid doctor was about to spew rubbish about her.No! She won't let that happen."What is it, Caleb?" Alpha Lake asked, folding his hands on his chest."Um, I kind of noticed that-""Ah! It hurts, Alpha. Please help me!" Adeline cried, holding her chest for emphasis."It was her!" She pointed at Audrey, "Catherine put me in this condition, Alpha. Punish her!" Adeline was now wailing hopelessly.Audrey chose to keep quiet, to see what Alpha Lake would do. If he ever believed Adeline for a second, then she'd waste no time in doing what was on her mind.Alpha Lake sighed and looked at Audrey for a long time, she was also holding his gaze, daring him to make the wrong decision."I don't believe you, Adeline," Alpha Lake slowly shook his head.Adelin

    Audrey didn't even flinch; she just stood in front of the door, watching the Oscar-worthy drama as she easily leaned her head beside the door."Why did you do it?" Alpha Lake asked angrily as he lifted Adeline from the floor and escorted her out of the pack house without sparing Audrey a second glance.Audrey shrugged and went back into the house to continue her cooking, filling her stomach was more important than anything at that particular moment. The incident only solidified her decision about Alpha Lake. Sleeping with him was just a perk of the mate bond and was something she'd discovered she had no control over.But, marking him, was solely her decision, and she had decided not to mark him nor let him mark her.He was free to choose whoever he wanted, as long as he gave her what she wanted. And speaking of, it was about time she stated her rules with him. ***Alpha Lake lowered Adeline to the hospital begging, her wrist still bleeding."What happened?" Caleb asked as he carried
