Shantel's POV.I woke up with a bright smile on my face, my thoughts filled with Leila's dead body.I was happy she died, when I entered her room last night, the joy of not hearing her breathing and seeing how stiff she was, made me sleep peacefully.I couldn't wait for the news that she was dead, I don't care about how the Alpha will feel but I was eliminating any competition from my life.And she was the Alpha's mate, I know he'll be hurt, but she's no more.I giggled while entering the bathroom, taking off all my clothing as quickly as possible and splashing water onto my head to wash away the sweat. When my skin was dry I wrapped myself in one towel, picked up another towel and dried my hair thoroughly before putting it back into its original shape.The moment I stepped out of the shower, I began happily around my room singing 'Leila is dead."My happiness was skyrocketing when I opened my closet and found clothes. I grabbed a pair of black jeans and some blue turtleneck sweat
Leila's POV.I watched her walk away, a smile on my face, her attitude confirmed she indeed put something in my food.This realization made me more terrified of Shantel that ever, if she could do this and wish for my death, then she could do worse.I couldn't believe it, I thought it was something different that happened, I thought that finally I could feel my wolf's strength and the strength now coursing through my veins.I didn't know it had to do with what she gave me, and whatever she me was supposed to kill me yet it made me strong, for some reason I didn't know.I was glad and thankful that I didn't die, and I got stronger, my strength became my biggest source of happiness as I have always even mocked as weak werewolf.I didn't want anyone knowing yet, but I was so happy I couldn't keep the smile off my face.Though my heart pounded painfully, in fear of what Shantel would do next time, I was happy to be on the best receiving end of the twisted plan she made to end my life.I tu
Darren's POV.I couldn't believe my eyes, my wolf was already restless and disturbing me for sending her away, so I had to come out.Yet I didn't know I would come and meet her kissing Dylan, I didn't know it'd have such a crumbling effect on me.My heart clenched in pain as I saw them kiss, their lips were locked in an instant passion."What the fuck is going on here?" I yelled.I couldn't control the anger that began simmering on the surface, I was fuming, my throat burned with the urge to scream. But I had to control my rage. I didn't want to scare her, but the desire to kill him was hovering in my thoughts.It was like a virus in my brain, making me furious everytime I looked at him."Alpha good evening." He bowed and my eyes narrowed.I really wanted to kill him right here and now but I have to restrain myself for my mate's sake."You can leave." I said immediately.Dylan nodded walking away immediately, I sighed, turning to the tree at the corner, punching it immediately.The
Shantel's POV.I waited for the Alpha to run off, I couldn't believe he almost caught me here.I ran and hid immediately, my heart beating fast as he searched for me.The sound of his footsteps was so close I thought the ground would shake. My breathing quickened again with anxiety.Why didn't I just run away before now? If he had seen my face he would ask where I was heading to.I sighed in relief when he left, he looked very angry and I somehow felt like his anger was more than mine.I couldn't believe my plan failed and I couldn't kill Leila the way I wanted.I groaned in anger, I couldn't believe the witch deceived me by giving me a drug that didn't work.I couldn't believe she didn't die after eating that food I prepared by adding the drugs,she even appeared stronger.The witch deceived me, she could see that I really wanted to kill Leila, she was a witch and she could see my heart.I sighed as I hit the tree next to me in frustration. I hit it repeatedly until my knuckles bled.
Leila's POV.I'm still shocked by the Alpha's outburst that day, I'm more upset he had the audacity to say I shouldn't have kissed Dylan.I can't believe him, one moment he acts all nice and extra and sweet and the other times he's all about hating me and making me suffer.I sighed as I cleaned the windows, the glass was a little foggy from my damp clothes.The sun was already setting on the horizon, a beautiful sunset over the forested hillsides of the pack house. I glanced out the window, watching for any sign of activity or activity smell.No sign of it, though. A few werewolves were still out patrolling through the territory but none so far in the distance. I could barely see them.I saw a figure slip in fast looking at different places, my eyes followed the action suspiciously, trying to find out who it was.My eyes widened when I realized who it was, I wondered why Shantel was sneaking back home, I shook my head, willing myself to mind my business.My eyes shifted back to the w
Leila's POV.I packaged her hair strand that I got in a little plastic bag.I put it inside the little sling bag I held rushing out immediately, I couldn't wait to know why the drugs didn't work on Leila.She was weird when I met her. For someone who was always timid and avoided me as much as she could, this Leila wasn't timid.I'm sure if I didn't catch her eating she wouldn't have let me touch her, and even with that, she was defiant in every way when she spoke.It's like she suddenly had bravado and grew some spunk. She made eye contact with me and told me that she saw me earlier.When she said that the shiver that ran through my body was enough to shake a mountain, I was terrified of what she saw and how she saw me. I hoped it wasn't serious.I walked as fast as I could, my feet ached yet I needed to find out about Leila and the long journey to the witch's place was very essential.I needed her to find a way to kill her, an effective way, I paused slightly leaning on a tree as my
Leila's POV.I ran to the edge of the pack's border tirelessly, it felt like my energy got recharged every time I ran.I expected to get drained soon, but it didn't happen, I was pumping with energy immediately.I was running at full speed again and couldn't care less if someone saw me. I was happy at that moment. It felt great just to be here. To have this energy.I've never felt such strength in me, it was greater than adrenaline flowing through my veins.The wind blew in my face as the breeze blew against my clothes. I smiled at the feeling of it. Everything around me was so vivid and beautiful, the sounds of nature were singing to my ears.It felt like the forest had been singing its song for hours before it became quiet. The silence wasn't scary or uncomfortable but it made it feel like something good had happened. It gave me peace.My thoughts trailed to Shantel and I swallowed nervously.She's been acting extremely strange, as much as I felt powerful and I could see that my w
Darren's POV.My state of mind these days is something I can't explain to anyone.I was constantly agitated, and my wolf was constantly irritated, wanting to be free every second, so it could cause chaos.I know how I am when I'm upset, I make sure I avoid shifting to my wolf form, my wolf doesn't listen to anyone, except me,and it doesn't sometimes."You should go to her." My wolf snarled,I rolled my eyes hoping it'll stop anytime."I won't." I sighed ruffling my hair."Then stop panic pacing." My wolf replied and I paused realizing I was pacing.I looked around and the stares of my pack members were on me.I realized I was pacing in the training room, and all eyes were on me.I offered them a small smile as I walked out of the training room, training didn't seem to help lately, it felt like a waste of time.Yet it was better than not training at all, not training would've left me tensed and more irritable.I smiled when I saw Aidan walking close," Hey bro, do you have an idea of wha
