Carena:

I stood before everyone, hands clasped in front of me, head bowed. Despite my posture, I could sense their reactions to my presence.

"What's happening, Sawyer?" Lord Rennick took the first step, while the others waited impatiently, eager to grasp the situation.

"Why don't you enlighten us?" Sawyer shot back, his fists clenched tightly.

"I'm clueless," Lord Rennick scanned the room, met with similar expressions of confusion. "Why did you instruct Paula to retrieve Carena’s reports?" He turned to his grandfather, and in that moment, my hopes surged. I raised my head, sensing a shift in tone.

"I didn't," Lord Rennick denied, exchanging a swift glance with Lady Paula, who frowned at the confrontation.

Sawyer's focus shifted to Paula, and she stiffened, anticipating his next move. But before he could confront her, a protective Jack stepped forward, shielding his mother from Sawyer's angry gaze.

"Could you clarify this matter? Your mention of my mother didn't sit well with me," Jac

    Carena:We opted to stick around, though that didn't guarantee inner peace for me. By now, everyone knew not to rile me up. Yet, they resorted to mild teasing this time, perhaps aware that I'd let a lot slide.I slipped into a green dress for my meeting with my father and sister. Sawyer assured me I could roam wherever I pleased. He even left his driver behind for me.As I gazed at my reflection in the mirror, a smile crept onto my face. Maybe I was beautiful or else why would such a powerful and strong alpha king take such good care of me? I did not realize my ability until Sawyer began treating me right.There must be something special about me, or why else would Sawyer be taking care of me so much, right?"Janine! I'll be at my place. I'll be back for dinner," I flashed her a smile as I breezed past, but soon noticed a shadow trailing behind, causing me to slow down."What are you doing following me?" I immediately tensed at the sight of Tabitha in black pants and a shirt."The hou

    Carena: After returning to the mansion, I discovered the Red Raven pack and the members of my household enjoying an evening tea. Sawyer was absent, so I decided not to join them in the living room.I headed to the bedroom and immediately went to the bathroom to change into lingerie, preparing for Sawyer's arrival.My heart raced as I put on the revealing outfit, making me feel a bit self-conscious about showing so much skin.With a quick glance at myself, I opened the bathroom door and stepped out to a surprising sight.The room was illuminated by candles, and there was a cake on the table.I had thrown on a robe over my lingerie to avoid any unexpected exposure.Sawyer sat in front of the cake, holding a red rose with a look of pure adoration in his eyes. One arm extended across the couch, the other holding the rose, gently tapping the empty spot beside him.Although his body was relaxed, his gaze was fixed on me through his eyebrows. A smile formed on my lips as I approached the co

    Carena:His tongue caressed around my areolas, making my tits erect and look pointy. He examined them before lowering his face again and pinching my tits with his lips. He bit them of so softly that I wanted to beg him to never set them free. He licked every part of my body clean before gently placing me on the bed and sinking me into the soft mattress.As he climbed onto the bed, he removed his shirt and casually tossed it aside.His gaze penetrated deep into my soul as he spread my legs and brushed his lips against mine.He didn't hold back in revealing the desire in his eyes.Kneeling before me, he maintained eye contact while unfastening his pants.I felt a rush of anticipation, picturing our bodies coming together with no space between us.He grasped his huge dick in his hand, stroking it until it stood at full attention, then teasingly ran the tip over my eager pussy.I moaned and shifted, relishing the sensation of his cock against my throbbing core. The intensity of his gaze

    Carena: "I'm really sorry to bother you. I had no idea the kitchen would be occupied at this time of night," Jack whispered, sounding almost like he wanted to convey something else but the words came out differently."No problem. My mate and I are finished here anyway," Sawyer said, wrapping his arm around me and pulling me closer to his chest, taking the plate and walking past Jack."You should have brought your mate to accompany you," Sawyer uttered to Jack."She doesn't really like the idea of midnight snacking," the tone Jack used was odd. It sounded like he was unhappy about Tabitha's lack of interest in certain things."Sad!" Sawyer shrugged.As we crossed paths, I noticed the anger in Jack's eyes. He could hide it from others, but not from me since I've lived with him and was very familiar with his actions and moods.Sawyer and I went to the bedroom together and ate the sandwiches before going to sleep. He held me in his arms all night, and I slept better than I ever have befo

    Carena: I started feeling wobbly in my legs as I leaned against Sawyer's back, watching Jack emerge with the warriors. His sudden halt caught me off guard, freezing me in place."What's going on?" Sawyer queried, turning around as I began to ease myself down from his arms."Why are you guys here?" The authority in his tone should have signaled to everyone that they weren't welcome."Lord Rennick asked us to escort Alpha King Jack and his Luna Queen to the mountains for a training session," one of the warriors explained, stepping forward. He appeared intimidated by Sawyer, yet innocent in the matter.It was Lord Rennick who'd enlisted them, and I could only speculate why. I was certain he saw these training sessions as the commencement of our bonding time."Sawyer, it's okay," I intervened before Sawyer could erupt, sensing his impending outburst. Gently, I encircled my fingers around his bulging biceps, halting him. Surprisingly, he froze, fixating on my hands resting on his arms wit

    Carena:"What the fuck are you doing?"I heard Sawyer shout, and my body jolted once again. He was so forceful on the training ground. I never expected to witness his wild side. It's going to make training a bit tough for me, though.After he tripped Tabitha on the ground and everyone laughed at her, she couldn't even pick herself up from that insult. It was Jack who quickly rose to his feet to help her up. She gave him such an attitude that if I had done it, he would have confronted me in front of everyone."You!" Sawyer's another scream startled me, making my body visibly shudder. He stopped yelling when he noticed it. He was so tall that I could spot him from afar. I was sitting under a tree, pondering about my life.Jack was occupied helping Tabitha warm up, while Ashley hadn't done anything, as if her existence was on pause. Her boyfriend was quite vocal about training. Being a Gamma, he had been making remarks about who was messing up the training. And I could tell Sawyer was onl

    Carena: "Sawyer! Can we talk?" I asked again as I followed him to the other side of the ground. He was aggressively pacing around, not resting, and I'm sure Jack and Tabitha noticed it with a smile on their lips."Not right now, Carena," he hissed at me without turning around to face me."Why not?" I asked, finally coming in front of him. I was so hurt by how he ignored me earlier when I tried to stop him, which made me tone down my words. My touch only works as long as it's not Ashley in front of him."Carena, I know what you're going to argue about, but I hope you remember she's still my mate, and I told you I care about her and that I love--" he closed his mouth after saying enough.I was shocked but didn't let out a gasp. I heard something break inside me, but it was all my fault. He never deceived me. He was very clear with his words that he never wanted me and that he still loved her."Gosh! Leave me alone if you don't want me to say something hurtful," he requested in a mild t

    Carena:“Answer me,” she insisted, and Sawyer finally opened his mouth to reply.“I think you should go back home and sort things out with your boyfriend,” he said calmly, slipping his hands into his pockets.Her body relaxed, and she scoffed, taunting him for not being able to secure her."Knew it," she taunted. "And you should go home to your crying mate and take care of her as if she were some teen," she hissed."She's not here, so don't drag her into this," Sawyer said as he stepped away from her.It was odd how he suddenly changed his tone. From being overly concerned to not even looking a bit worried for her.Even she kept staring at him as he turned around to leave. I didn't want to confront them because there was nothing worth discussing.It's not like what she said was untrue. I have been so desperate to live the life of a teen in love that I forgot my age.Throughout my teenage years, I had the responsibility of my stepsiblings on me.I never got to make friends or even focu

    Carena: “I have put them to bed; we’re all set,” Sawyer announced, his shirt disheveled before he quickly straightened it, though he didn’t roll down his sleeves.I gave him a smile and got up from my seat to welcome him. He took the main chair, and I sat down beside him, wearing a beautiful red dress.“You are the best father and husband,” I whispered, leaning over to kiss his cheek while the maid served us food.“You two need to get a room,” Ronan joked, making us smile and turn to him. He looked so happy with Yamin. The two had welcomed twins--a baby girl and a baby boy--last year.“And my brother is truly proving himself to be a good role model too,” Payton added proudly.Lady Jane smiled at her sons, delighted with their perfect lives.“And Payton is taking good care of business,” Louis grinned at her, giving her a wink. I knew something was brewing between the two, and they had recently opened up about it. They were set to get married in two months.I didn’t think there could b

    Carena:“What do you mean?” My heart revived even more, my grip tightening around my child.“Kelly, don’t fucking make up stories,” Jack yelled, his fists clenched.“I am not. You fool. You really bought my lie about Carena being so powerful to get pregnant already and then giving birth in seven months. Carena didn’t have a proper sense of date and time because there were days she would sleep without waking up for two days. But you, you knew everything. Yet you didn’t question anything?” Kelly smirked at Jack, who was finally hit with the realization.That’s when my baby let out a little cry and opened his eyes. He had the same eyes as Sawyer.“He is my baby?” Sawyer rushed toward me, taking him from my hands and then smiling, “No wonder I felt such a strong connection.”“No! You did not betray me like that,” Jack yelled, rushing to wrap his hands around Kelly’s neck, but Martin raised his legs and kicked him, making Jack drop back like a pathetic weakling.“How dare you--,” it was as

    Carena: After I beat him up, Sawyer handed me my baby while he tied the couple to a tree. I was curious about what he was planning to do.“I am so sorry I got you into this mess,” Kelly cried to Martin, the two tied side by side.“No! If I have to do that again, I will do it. All for you,” the guy was hopelessly in love with her but also an idiot for partaking in her crazy schemes.She was a doctor; if she had remained committed to her job, the two would be living a very good life by now.While the two cried and talked, I held my son and smiled with teary eyes. My baby was perfect. There was no way he was Jack’s child. How could such a beautiful baby belong to that monster?“My perfect child,” I cried happily, rocking my baby in my arms. All these months, not once did I hate my child. I had grown so much in love with my baby that I didn’t understand why and how."Why would you want us dead? You already have your baby and your mate by your side now. Don't you have everything already?"

    Carena:He was watching me with so many emotions in his eyes. In that moment, Jack and the others decided to flee because they knew they couldn't fight Sawyer.Jack was so frightened that he didn't even wait to grab me. Instead, he just started running after seizing Kelly.“My son--!” I yelled, but before I could get up, I saw Sawyer gesture for me not to go after them.“They cannot escape the woods.”His confidence made me sit back. But what about my son? What if they hurt him?"Sawyer!" I uttered his name as he deepened his stare into my eyes, filled with nothing but love for me."My love!" He knelt down and instantly pulled me into a warm and comforting embrace."No! Don't touch me before you know my truth." It broke my heart that even after our reunion, I had to keep my distance from him.He needed to understand that I had given birth to Jack's child so he could decide whether he still wanted to be with me. It would shatter my heart if he didn't want to stay with me, but I could n

    Sawyer:“Ronan, keep your eyes peeled at the border. Make sure your men remain hidden in dugouts around the portal,” I advised him as we marched away from the entrance. Tonight was the Wolf Moon, and after midnight, I knew Jack would arrive with Carena. Certainly, Jack would use Carena to try to lure us away so that he could cross the portal, but I would jump right in with them. That was the plan.“I have informed my guards not to stop them from enticing the bridge, but do let us know when they arrive,” Ronan confirmed. I didn't want to provoke Jack into attacking Carena out of anger. Of course, he would threaten us with her life when he was surrounded by the warriors.“Yamin is taking care of the roads--” Suddenly, Ronan's voice began to fade. My mind started to wander off, and I knew it wasn’t the first time this had happened. I had felt this before, only when someone stepped into my woods--the woods of which I was king.“They are here.”I closed my eyes, focusing on the whispers of

    Carena:“AHHHHH!” My screams had deafened me at this point. The pain was unbearable, and being out in the wild was not helping at all. I was worried for my baby and how giving birth in the wilderness would negatively impact everything. Dr. Kelly had asked Jack and Martin to grab some supplies while she assisted me with the delivery.“Just keep going. I know you can do it,” she said, rubbing a damp cloth over my forehead in an attempt to comfort me, but I was far from comfortable. The open air and sky, combined with the fact that my mate was not with me, broke my heart.“Why can’t we go to a hospital?” I asked, letting out heavy breaths, but the pain kept intensifying.“Because Sawyer must have informed all the hospitals and packs about you and Jack,” she replied. “Besides, we are passing through Sawyer’s pack, so--” The minute she said that, goosebumps covered my body. I looked around and noticed the woods. What the hell!We were in the terrifying part of the woods? The crazy and poss

    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

    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: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
