SawyerI stood in front of one of the TVs with Louis as we watched a man step in front of the camera. It was not looking well. This Jack was a sickly man, who deserved a sickly death. And I will give it to him myself, I promised myself. "Hello, Alpha King Sawyer!" he muttered, sending chills down my spine because I recognized him instantly.It was Matt.I should have dealt with him long ago. Every person exposing themselves like this was exactly why I didn’t want dangerous people roaming around. But I never thought these people would turn out to be so evil and crazy. "As promised, I’ll give you your sister back. But first, you have to play a little game with me for her." There was a mocking tone in his voice. "I’m going to hide your sister in one of the rooms, and I’ll give you a clue. There are 10 floors with countless rooms in this building, and she’s in one of them. Find her before time runs out." He cackled but didn’t elaborate further. However, as he lifted a knife, I already k
Jack:“There’s no evidence, damn it. We’re screwed. That beast is on his way to the pack, and the moment he gets his hands on us, we’re dead,” I told Matt, who was standing over the unconscious girl.“What should we do now?” he asked, just as terrified as I was. Our entire plan had fallen apart.We could’ve easily destroyed Sawyer’s reputation and gotten him arrested. If he had unleashed his animal, we could’ve united the packs against him, hunting him down and killing him. But now, we looked like the ones who attacked the Alpha King’s mansion while he was away and kidnapped his mate.“It’s time for Plan B,” I muttered.“There was a Plan B? So, you knew we’d fail?” Matt crossed his arms, glaring at me. He had been obedient until now, but ever since he realized I couldn’t be the Alpha King, he’d been questioning everything.“It’s actually an even better option,” I said, recalling all the research I’d done after leaving Tabitha at her father’s house, only to be thrown out like some stra
Sawyer:"How did you—" Matt stammered, gulping as he quickly stepped away from the bed. He had been stabbing her palms to make her cry and scream."What the fuck are you?" he shouted, his voice shaking as he stared at my wolf form.Was he talking to my wolf? His steps faltered as he backed toward the window. It was too high for him to jump, but I wasn’t going to let him take the easy way out. A fall from that height wouldn’t kill him—he’d heal, and I wasn’t about to let that happen.As I cornered him, Louis arrived. He had quickly shifted back to human form, ready to take care of Payton. While Louis untied her hands and wrapped her in his arms, comforting her, I steadily advanced toward Matt."Your sister wasn’t a saint," Payton began, her voice trembling but determined, as I ensured Matt had no room to escape. I positioned myself between him and the window, cutting off any chance he had of jumping."She killed her former boss when he caught her stealing money," Payton continued. "And
SawyerMany years Ago:After I was chosen by my father, he took me to the dark woods and made me sit in the heart of the forest, surrounded by the darkest energy, and prayed.That night, he offered me to the woods and transferred his dark power to me. When he brought me back home, for months afterward, he would lock everyone in their rooms. But I remained awake, accompanying him as he brought in people and tortured them.He made me clean the blood and often took me to the woods, where he forced me to hold a camera and record him while he swung the hammer, killing those innocent souls.I was too young and small to save them. So whenever they begged me for help, I felt utterly helpless and consumed by guilt.There was one time when I tried to help someone escape, but of course, my father found out. He beat my younger siblings and Lady Jane in front of me to teach me a lesson.After that, I obeyed him without question, becoming a silent puppet. I just knew I couldn't save anyone in that
Sawyer:Current Time:“Look around the exit!” I yelled at Ronan as we ran through the pack, desperately searching for any sign of Jack. Thankfully, Payton was safe, being taken care of by Louis. Yet, I couldn't find peace.It seemed Jack had vanished, but he hadn't left alone—he had taken my Carena. I hurried back into the mansion, racing down the hallway and descending the stairs to the basement. I was shocked to find the wall broken, but of course, he had asked for it.There was no way he would have left without destroying everything in his path. Even the bones were gone."Brother, what’s going on?" Ronan walked in, placing a hand on my shoulder to shake me back to reality.“They took him,” I muttered under my breath, trying to stay calm despite everything spiraling out of control.“Who?” Ronan asked, confusion evident on his face.“I have a terrible fear, Ronan. They're trying to escape with Carena,” I said, my voice strained. The moment I spoke, I saw him gulp.“I’ll take care of
Carena:I was heavily pregnant and miserable, but I kept going for the sake of my baby and the hope of seeing Sawyer again one day. I just didn’t know how he would react to the fact that my child belonged to someone else.“You shouldn’t starve yourself,” the maid they had hired for me said, causing me to roll my eyes.I didn’t get along with any of these people.They were all enemies of both me and Sawyer, working for that despicable man.“I’m full,” I sighed. “Before you start lecturing me, I had breakfast less than two hours ago,” I scoffed, irritated.She rolled her eyes and left the hut. We had been on the run—or rather, they had kept me on the run—for months.Every time Sawyer got close, they would pack up and flee again. They’d managed to evade him many times by threatening my life, and of course, Sawyer always relented.“Hey,” Jack entered, having taken care of the food and other necessities for the night. He smiled at me.The mattress I sat on was uncomfortable, lacking the fa
Carena:"What did you just say?" he asked, a harshness in his voice warning me not to say the wrong thing."Jack lied to you. He told me that if he told you the truth, you would kill me and my baby." I gulped, realizing it could be true. I was taking a risk here. If I wasn’t pregnant, I would have found a way to escape the chains and transition. But that was no longer an option."Huh!" He looked rightfully confused. "You are the reason my poor daughter is dead. Sawyer killed her because of you." Now that we were talking, he started revealing what he truly thought of me.The fact that he claimed Sawyer had killed Tabitha proved that Jack had lied to him about many things."That’s not true. Listen--" I took a deep breath, knowing I was about to admit who was really responsible for Tabitha’s death and the deaths of his other children.His expression grew even harsher as he continued to watch me, waiting for an explanation as to why I believed Jack had been lying."Tabitha did cheat on Ja
Carena: Jack was shocked to see the old man confronting him. It seemed like Jack had run out of words.“I don’t know what you are--talking about,” Jack tried to sound normal, but none of the words he uttered came out in a confident tone.His hesitation alone gave him a guilty appearance.I had stepped way back from them while Dr. Kelly ensured she stayed with me."I heard it all. You played me only so you could use my kin to escape the werewolf world--the world where you have messed up so much that you can’t even remain in it anymore,” Vincent finally seemed to have caught on to Jack’s scheme.It took him months and many wasted attempts to open his eyes. But what struck me as odd was that Jack steadily fixed his posture and approached him.For someone who had been caught in a lie by his only support, he was remarkably calm.“I think you’re taking this way too seriously. It’s not that grave of a matter,” he placed his hand on Vincent’s shoulder, but Vincent shrugged it off aggressivel
