Devika’s POV

Ten months ago…

“Did you really think that you would get rid of me so easily?” I still heard the voice after almost a year. And, my whole body felt the goosebumps as the day from fourteen months ago flashed in front of my eyes and rage starts taking over my senses making me fuel up. “Oh, come on, you should stop wasting your energy, again and again, trying to free yourself. You can’t…”

I raised my head as he stopped just a few inches away from me, “What? Are you shocked?” he questioned making me grit my teeth at his sight. “Oh, how exciting it is to finally be able to face the murderer of your mate, right? Ahh, this… this is what I was waiting to see for a year. Your throbbing like this is just so satisfying, I missed it in your mate’s case. I have to say he was a brave and determined Alpha.” For a second he got me off guard by the look on his face but it is said that eyes never lie. And, the same was his case.

I scoffed at his face making sure to make him hear the hatred I have for him, “Yeah, he was brave and determined to fight for his pack and lead them in a true sense and way. Not for someone like you motherfuckers it is to understand.”

“Good for me, what is the use of being so great when you have to keep your life at stake and lose it? Right now, I am having what I deserved, the life I wanted. The ruler, the alpha, and what about you and your mate?” He snickered, taking a step closer to me, and holding my chin between his thumb and finger, “Living a low life in someone else’s pack, whereas once you were a Luna. How much worth it is, huh?”

I turned my head away to slip my chin away from his grip but he tightened it, “Oh, I have a proposal for you.” I glared into his eyes knowing very well that he would utter something gross, “You can ask me…” I squinted my eyes, “come on, don’t pretend like you did not understand what I mean.”

I was so done with the shit that I wanted to grab his neck and kill him then and there but even after giving so many trials, I was not able to shift. It was as if something was blocking Willow from contacting me. “Prevention is something that suits the thugs like you, not me. I am good being myself and right now I am not at all interested in your worthless words.” I huffed twisting my hands for God knows how many times.

He stood straight after a few seconds when I did not pay any heed to him and walked around the chair. I got startled when I felt his breath at the back of my neck as he whispered, “Hmm, I thought the former Luna of my pack is smart enough but it seems like I was wrong.” Taking a step forward, he took the strand of my hair in his hand, “You know as well as your pack my target was you too? But, damn your mate… he came in my way or else already by then I would have got my hands…”

He tsked taking a pause leaving his sentence incomplete and continued again, “Anyways, let past be in its place. If you want, I can still take you in including the pack members who left with you.” I glared at him as the filthy words left his throat and reached my ears. I was not shocked because I was aware of something like this coming from him but still the anger clearly showed on my face.

“I heard you lost your pup also…” his words were pressing on my nerves, my pup is a sensitive matter to me and I cannot let him see my weak point. “Don’t worry, I can give you another. And that too a much early than your mate was able to.” Not even taking a second, I turned my head and bit his ear as he was bending and whispering in my ear.

“What do you think? Tying me like this, you can spit whatever you want. Don’t even think that with me, now I just bit your ear but the next time I will make sure to rip it off.” He gritted out through my clenched teeth. “You were lucky enough that my mate was injured badly when he went back to the pack or else you would not have been standing here so proudly and saying shits to his mate. Just remember you can only win by cheating or backstabbing.”

I scoffed seeing his clenched jaw and smirked, “What? Did you really think we are fools and cannot figure out wolfsbane in his body? The weapons your men used were wolfsbane due to which most of our pack members also lost in an attempt of protecting their Alpha.” As if I said something funny, he started his evil laugh.

But suddenly he stopped and with a straight face, he bent slowly coming to my eye level. “A Luna, but what is the use of it? Anyways I got what I wanted and look, today I am standing here while you are sitting in such a situation with your mate being somewhere in heaven.”

“He proudly sacrificed himself for his pack members, something which you can never do. And, you know why?” I questioned while smirking and being the proudest mate in the whole world. “Because you are a coward and to sacrifice for someone else requires gut, you don’t have one.”

Brent’s sacrifice, I won’t let go waste. I will make sure to make this coward pay for it and face his downfall. His face was clearly showing dissatisfaction toward my words, but it changed into a smirk in a second. “Are we now talking about the guts?”

Taking a pause, “Sacrificing and being great, killing your mate with my bare hands was my motive and you know what I had the guts of doing so. What’s the use of being an Alpha when you lost to a mere banished member of your pack? I had the guts and therefore today I am here and you are here under my mercy. Now, what’s the use of such gut? Can you mate come and save you from me?”

Raking his finger down my cheeks, “I can do whatever I want to you right now, let’s see how the gut is going to save you.” I took his finger between my teeth mercilessly as he spoke and bit him hard. He pulled my hair with another hand as he was not able to pull away while groaning out loud. Leaving his finger, I glared at him as he winced, “You bitch…”. He yelled and tried to slap but I was ready and kicked him direct on the lower abdomen.

“Don’t even you dare lay your finger on me, or else…”

“Or else what?” he yelled grabbing my face in hand tightly. “You are going to pay for what you did,” he said and called his guards.

“Alpha.” They came bowing their head to him.

Glaring into my eyes, “Who tied her?” He questioned and when none of them answered, he barked making them flinch, “WHO TIED HER?”

“Me, alpha, it is me.” One of them answered. It was then that he turned around and looked at the one who spoke.

Taking slow steps towards him, “What? Don’t you even know how to tie someone?” Punching him in the stomach, “Don’t you know tying someone means, tying her legs too, come under it, huh?” and, again he punched but this time making sure to be hard as the guy falls down on his knees.

Grunting and holding his stomach, “I’m sorry, Alpha but I was about to tie her legs but…” he paused causing himself pain again as Joseph pulled him by his hair and landed a punch on his face.

“But… but what?” he questioned clenching his jaw. Just a monster, I thought at least he would treat his men nicely who helped him in getting where he is but no, his such behavior just proved a monster will always be a monster.

“But Rosie came here when was about to tie her leg and asked me to leave.”

“And, you left? Did I not say that no one else except me is allowed here?” I just don’t understand why no one is here yet to save me. It definitely must have been long enough for them to reach here then why do I have to go through the drama of them, goddess? Argh, where are they? Only if I would be able to shift I would not have to wait for them here. “Then why the hell anyone else was here and even if was it’s your all fault. So, stop making excuses.” Looking at him, at the killer of my mate and pup I so want to just snap his head away from his body. But no, he deserves much worse than that, and he would definitely go through.

Pinching the bridge of his nose, “Just leave, go and make sure no one comes in.” Bowing their head, they skittered out of the room instantly leaving us alone. “Oh, that took a time,” as if I care, I glared at him. Right now, I only care about Willow who is not responding to me. I don’t understand what happened after I fainted that she is feeling so distant to me as if she was not there ever.

Though the bottle does not expose what is inside it, I can still figure it out due to the smell. The fear and eagerness to just free my hands. Already, Willow is so weak, and upon that again a dosage would just make her situation worst. “Are you mad?” I yelled as he came to me and smirked looking at me. The jerk was enjoying seeing my condition, “Ahh, it’s so good seeing you like this.” I had before thought that just behaving calmly would get me some time until Adrian and Marcus arrive but instead it is happening completely opposite. The situation just got worsen, I think. “What? Did you really think I would trust you?

We cannot say anything right now due to the high dosage of wolfsbane in her body.” His words made everything play in front of my eyes, the way wolfsbane was injected into my body.And, hearing what I feared the most to come true, I suddenly felt difficulty breathing. I tried to get up and talk to the doctor as only he can help me right now but getting up made me groan in ache due to the soreness in my whole body. “Just lay down,

No matter who comes or not, she definitely comes for me and even makes sure to share my loneliness when I would not want to have any interaction with anyone. And, when I would cry, she would give me her shoulder, when I would want to share memories about Brent, she would give me her ears.Always being beside me even after having her own family, “No Luna, he did not. Till where I know, he has been leading the warriors and training them. Not only that, till where I know after training the warriors, I saw him with Alpha.

And, this, keeping yourself busy. Use it to fool others not me, even when I used to get cold you would behave like what had happened to me whereas now, I was hospitalized not even once you came.” “Rhea was there to take care of you and here alpha needed me. So…” I don’t know what it is but I am sure that something messy is running in his head which he is not sharing. “Oh, now I get it. How silly of me to be not getting it till now.” I said and chuckled as the thought struck my head. I am sure now I will have my answers. Staring at me with confusion he questioned, “What are you saying?” I chuckled to make my words believable, “Didn’t you get me?

Anyways we require an extra hand in training the female warriors and members of the pack.” When I said it, I was actually not that serious with the consideration of her getting discharged from the hospital not long ago. But this woman just is so stubborn when it comes to getting what she wants. “Yes, Samuel, please do as Alpha said. I actually am thinking about why the thought of getting back to training did not strike me.” Samuel sighed hearing her but did not give her any reply instead tried to convince me to not let her join now. “Alpha, I think she should still rest a few more days. Looking at her, I can say how unprepared she is to get back on the training ground.” Hearing him, I actually considered taking my order back but the attitude she gave just made me not do so and stuck to my order. “No need

But, what was I supposed to do when the ones I found reliable were just being cold to me all of a sudden?

Having the experience before was an advantage to me due to which I was not nervous about taking the position but what I was nervous about the acceptance from the pack. And, that occupied my mind making me startle at the sudden howls and claps from all the pack members which I did not expect even a bit. With that, the nervousness faded off me, “Thank you everyone for accepting and welcoming me with open hearts.” With one of the best, I could offer everyone I said. Though everything went fine as we wished but the guilt inside me of betraying my mate was still existing. “He must be the happiest seeing you,” Adrian whispered taking place beside me and wrapping his arm around my shoulder. I just like how he understands what is going on inside my head of mine, or ho

Adrian's mind raced with worry as he retraced his steps, trying to remember the last time he had seen her. They had spent the morning together, sharing breakfast and laughing over silly jokes.
