Elaine

Two days after that fateful meeting, everything went back to normal. And so, I thought.

My workspace was a corner in the open-plan office, surrounded by the gentle hum of the busy office setup. Papers and folders lay scattered across my desk, a vivid testament to the day's overwhelming workload. I was deeply engrossed in updating a crucial report.

A soft knock on the divider snapped me out of my concentration, jolting me from my swamp of work. I looked up to see Marie, smiling warmly at me.

"Elaine?" Marie's voice held a hint of urgency.

"Hi, Marie. What's up?" I replied, momentarily setting aside my work and adjusting my glasses.

"I just came out of Nancy’s office. She asked me to instruct you to see her in her office," Marie said. Although her expression remained smiling, I could see the hint of curiosity in her eyes

"Oh, okay. Thanks for letting me know," I replied. Marie nodded and departed, leaving me to ponder Nancy's sudden request. Since the tense board meeting two days

  • I Don't Remember Loving You, Alpha   Chapter 59

    ElaineI sat in a cozy corner of the bustling coffee shop, nursing my morning coffee. The rich aroma of freshly brewed beans filled the air, but my mind was elsewhere. I had just two days to secure a meeting with Everett Innovations. How the hell would I be able to do that?The thought alone made my temples throb. This Elite Five lived up to its name. Imagine being a discreet group of highly successful companies across different fields of business but still managing to keep a highly secretive profile. I remembered what Trevor had told me: this company only opened its doors to potential partners. They would only reach out if they were interested in partnering with you. If not, you won’t get any information from them. They would contact you to collaborate, not the other way around. Perhaps that was why they hadn’t answered any of our emails or calls. With this reality hovering above me, how would I get them to meet with us at Roma Aesthetics?I sighed and massaged my forehead, trying to

    Elaine I followed Leo as he led me down the street. My mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. I should have been at the office of Everett Innovations, trying to schedule an appointment for Roma Aesthetics. Instead, here I was, trailing after this poor kid. I had offered to walk him home, thinking it wouldn’t take long, but now I was starting to worry. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was making a mistake and poor judgment call. My concern for Leo's safety battled with my worry about the difficult task assigned to me by Nancy.Feeling defeated, I sighed and tried to reassure myself. "Making sure this kid is safe won’t take much time. I can get back to work soon." After a few minutes, we turned a corner. There, I saw a small house made of cardboard, held together with tape and string, next to an old trash bin. It was tiny, with a worn-out blanket for a door and newspapers on the floor. Leo stopped and turned to me with a small smile. "Welcome to my home, Aunt Elaine," he said. My h

    ElaineI turned my head, recognizing the voice instantly."Well, well, who do we have here?" Megan's tone was dripping with sarcasm. She stood there, a smug smile playing on her lips. Her eyes glittered with a predatory gleam, and her posture was as sharp and poised as ever. She was with another wolf, a man dressed in corporate wear, clearly indicating they were on some business errand together. I stood up and dusted myself off, determined to face this unexpected encounter with dignity."What are you doing here, Elaine?" Megan asked, her eyes scanning me with a mix of curiosity and disdain, her lips curling into a smirk. I could feel her trying to assert dominance, trying to make me feel small. I didn't want to give her the satisfaction of knowing the details, so I simply said, "It's work-related."Megan's eyes widened in shock, her expression quickly morphing into one of false pity. "Elaine, the previous Luna of Wolfsilver Pack, working as an employee?" Her words dripped with thinly v

    ElaineI was taken aback when I realized the wolf I had bumped into was Trevor. I had been lost in my thoughts, not expecting to see a familiar face in this place.“Elaine?” Trevor said, his surprise evident. He looked just the same, with his bright eyes and easy smile.Feeling awkward, I managed a small smile. “Hi,” I said, my voice a bit shaky.Trevor’s curiosity got the better of him. “What are you doing here? No work today?”I shook my head, my stomach growling audibly. “Actually, I’m here because of work,” I admitted, feeling a blush creep up my cheeks.Trevor’s smile widened. “It’s lunchtime already. How about we grab something to eat? There’s a diner nearby.”“Hmmm…”“Don’t think about it, come on. You might be thinking to say no but your stomach is saying otherwise.”I felt my cheeks heat remembering the embarrassing encounter. With that, I nodded and followed Trevor as he led me to Whimsy Diner. The diner had a cozy, nostalgic feel, with checkered tablecloths and the smell of

    ElaineFlashback…The moonlight bathed the clearing in a soft, silvery glow, its gentle touch highlighting the tears streaming down my cheeks. I stood there, silently weeping, while Trevor paced back and forth beside me, clearly unsettled. The tension between us hung heavy in the cool night air.“Why him? Why must you marry the Alpha’s son?” Trevor’s voice held a mix of frustration and hurt.“It’s what the Alpha and the Luna have decided,” I replied, my voice trembling with emotion. “It’s their way of thanking me for saving the Luna.”“But how is it a reward if you’re marrying because they told you to? Shouldn’t marriage be about love? Did they force you to agree?”“No! They didn’t—”“Then, why? Why did you agree to this arrangement? It doesn’t make sense—”“Because I love Tristan!” I shouted, my tears flowing more freely now. “I’ve loved him since we were little. I thought it was just a simple crush, but eventually, as I was given access to his world through his parents, I found mysel

    TristanSteam curled from the mug in my hand as I sat in my office, the smell of coffee filling the air. I took a slow sip, enjoying the quiet before the day began. It was a usual day for me, with a lot of things to get done. But before starting, I wanted to enjoy a little bit of solitude with my cup of coffee.As always. Suddenly, a sharp knock echoed through my office door.“Come in!” I put down my coffee, its warmth still lingering in the air. An omega entered the room afterward. She curtsied before speaking.“Good morning, Alpha Tristan. Sorry to disturb your wonderful morning, but a sudden visitor came.”I wondered who it was. An early morning visit sounded very unusual. No one would visit me at this hour. Curious, I asked, “Who is it?”“A lady from Moon Valley Orphanage,” the omega replied calmly while still bowing her head.Upon hearing this, my eyebrows furrowed. I stood up abruptly and exclaimed, “I’ve never heard of that place.”The omega, who seemed confused, responded, “T

    Memories flooded inside me as I heard her mention that fateful day. How could I ever forget it? It was the time I lost my best friend Shawn because Elaine manipulated my parents into stealing Shawn’s life-saving heart costing him his life. I would never forgive her for doing that. Meanwhile, Lily continued to tell me her version of the events. "I knew about your wife's need for a heart transplant a few years ago. I met her during a visit to the hospital where some of our supporters were working. I learned about her relentless search to uncover the identity of her donor, who was only known to her as an orphan wolf. To honor this donor, Elaine decided to support our orphanage as a way to give back to her lifesaver."I locked eyes with Lily. Frozen in my seat, I stared at her with a shocked expression. Lily noticed my unusual demeanor and asked, “Are you okay, Alpha?”I blinked once, realizing her concern. Shaking my head, I asked, “Is it okay if you tell me more about this incident?”L

    Tristan I paced back and forth in my room, the wooden floor creaking under my feet. The soft glow of the evening sun filtered through the curtains, casting long shadows on the walls. My mind was a whirlwind of doubts and questions. My conversation with Lily about Elaine had shaken the foundation of my beliefs. Was everything I thought Elaine did wrong? Could she really be innocent of Shawn’s death? The questions gnawed at me, each one more persistent than the last.“Pacing back and forth won’t help, Tristan,” Ceres, my spirit wolf, growled inside my mind.I stopped mid-step, looking out the window at the setting sun, frustration boiling over. “Then what should I do, Ceres? How do I find the truth?”“You’re being stupid,” Ceres snapped. “Investigate where it all started.”I paused, thinking. “Where it all started...”“Lycan Hills Hospital,” Ceres said, his voice echoing in my mind. It was where Shawn died and Elaine received her transplant.Desperate to find the truth, I grabbed my key

    TristanEveryone turned their gaze to the door. Elsa approached me, looking unpleasant at what I had said. “My father gave everything to support you. He lost his life to defend you. And in return, you will disgrace our pack and his legacy by turning down our help?” Her cold stare put us into silence. Elsa’s presence alone carried the whole cabin to a whole new level. She was different from the first time I met her. “We are not cowards, Alpha Tristan. We would rather die on the battlefield than be humiliated like this.” Ruther and Mike’s eyes suddenly changed. Their souls were already crying for revenge. As a warrior, I knew how they felt, and I couldn’t blame them. They could no longer contain the rage stirring in their hearts. Though I completely understand their desire to avenge the death of Alpha Earl, I cannot allow any more blood to spill. Another life loss would be too much for me to handle. I cannot risk any more lives because of my own problems. “I will never disgrace th

    Elaine“Let me go, Tristan! I have to save Trevor. He’s in danger.”I shoved Tristan’s hands away and rushed to the pack’s entrance. There’s no point in waiting another second while Trevor is dying in Travis’ hands.“Elaine! Wait!” Tristan ran after me and blocked my way. “I’m sorry, but I can’t let you go out of this pack.”I pushed Tristan in front of me. Hard. Saving Trevor was the most obvious thing to do now. I no longer cared what was gonna happen to me. Nothing would stop me from saving Trevor. Not Tristan, not anyone. “I won’t stand here doing nothing, Tristan. So get out of my way.”As soon as I took another step, Tristan pulled my arms. His face flushed in anger. “Are you out of your mind?! What can you do against Travis? It’s suicide!” His hands were still on my arms, gripping them hard.I scoffed at his statement. I looked straight into his eyes, showing no fear in facing our enemies.“We didn’t train for nothing, Tristan. You know how special I am. They would be no matc

    ElaineElsa embraced the lifeless body of Alpha Earl. She didn’t let go for a long time until Ruther gently approached her.“Alpha Elsa… your father needs to rest now.”With a cold, expressionless face, Elsa nodded. Ruther and Mike signaled to the warriors gathered around. Tears still streamed down their faces as they carefully lifted Alpha Earl’s body.Mike stepped forward and addressed the Silver Rose pack.“Let’s give the Alpha his final rites.”In silence, everyone began to move. Tristan and I were left alone. I observed the others for a while. It was like they all instinctively knew what to do.Night fell quickly. Everyone moved in perfect synchrony. It almost felt like a ritual embedded in their hearts. Tristan and I sat quietly on a wooden bench to the side and silently watched them.“Hey, Tristan…” I whispered. “Do you have any idea what’s happening?”Maybe he knew. After all, he was an Alpha. But Tristan sighed and shook his head.“I don’t. But out of respect for the late Alp

    ElaineI thought our return would be filled with smiles and laughter. It was the total opposite of what we imagined about the pack welcoming us. Instead of smiles and messages of how proud they were about our success, the Silver Rose pack welcomed us with their cries.Alpha Earl tilted his head, faintly smiling at us. “I’m glad you made it.” Alpha Earl coughed blood as soon as he spoke.Elsa delicately held him. I held my mouth, terrified by the nightmare I was witnessing in front of me. Ruther and Mike flooded their faces with tears. Tristan bit his lip, turning his gaze away from the dying Alpha. Strangely, Elsa didn’t show any emotions and just held her father.I took a step back when I saw the ugly lash on his side. I felt like my knees would give out any second. Tristan held my shoulder for support.More blood oozed from Alpha Earl’s mouth. Shortly, their spot was filled with more blood coming from his wound. Every wolf around him was alarmed.“He must have fought with someone s

    ElaineMike and Ruther looked at each other. I didn’t know what they were thinking. But I saw something in their eyes that I hadn’t seen in the days we were together. Fear. Worry. Something…serious. My stomach turned. I suddenly felt my throat dry all of a sudden. There was something eerie hovering in the air that made my skin crawl. And yet, all I could do was to stay quiet and observe. I felt Tristan stepped beside me. He was close enough for me to feel the heat from his body. His body became tensed. I wasn’t looking at him but I could feel through his whole posture that he was preparing for something worse. He was ready to protect. To protect me. Elsa walked a few steps and crouched low. By the looks of it, she was looking for something. Or to describe it exactly, she was investigating the ground for any clues. Suddenly, I heard her growl. It was enough for me to be nervous more. “There’s blood,” she said. Her voice was cold but full of concern. “It’s still fresh so whateve

    ElaineEight days since we left Silver Rose Pack.I still couldn't believe that we had reached the final stage of our training. I watched the trees outside by the window of the cabin that became our temporary home with gratitude. It was like they were waving goodbye to me. I smiled at the thought. Maybe, they did. After all, they were the sole witness of the things we’ve been through here. And I was so glad that those sufferings yielded positive results that we were all grateful for. Tristan was packing the last of his things behind me. Meanwhile, the others were outside getting ready for our journey home.I pulled the straps on my bag and took a deep breath. I tried to keep my mind calm. So much had happened in the last few days. And today, we were finally leaving those things behind and ready to move forward. Towards our goal. I remembered our training under the waterfall. The water was freezing cold and hit our bodies hard. We had to stand under it for six hours without falling.

    TristanI felt the oozing lust in the way Elaine looked at me. But at the same time, I caught a glance of tremendous desperation in her. That broke me into pieces.“I promise. We will get through this night together,” I responded.Elaine smiled. There was still some sense left in her. I knew it was the drug that was doing this to her.Soon enough, Elaine folded her knees and held onto her chest. The pain struck her.“I feel warm inside… so warm that I can’t take this anymore… help me, Tristan.” Then violently, Elaine pulled my arms into a hug.After years of struggling through a life without her, the embrace that felt like home touched my skin again.“Your hug is like water quenching decades of thirst in my body.” Her breathing became heavy in my ears.Elaine pulled the back of my head.“Hey, handsome.” Her voice started to sing a different melody. Elaine now wore a tune of seduction.I instantly pulled away from her embrace.“No, Elaine. Stop this.”Earlier, Elaine was begging desper

    TristanI carried Elaine until we reached the camp. I put her inside our quarters before confronting Elsa. Elsa was completely calm. From the outside, we could hear Elaine’s agony, but these wolves seemed to have no care at all. By the way they stood and portrayed strange calmness, it was like everyone expected it to happen.“Something is off about your medicine!” I shouted at Elsa. “You’re not deaf to hear those screams, are you? Why are you standing here doing nothing?!”Elsa suddenly jumped from the porch, launching at me. It was good that my reflexes were fast enough to dodge the attack. I jumped away from her group.“What the fuck was that?” I exclaimed. Ruther and Mike didn’t bother to help and just watched.The second I removed my eyes from Elsa, she launched another surprise attack. This time, I saw an injection in her hand. I jumped to the side, dodging another shot.“Stop running away,” Elsa told me.Elsa twisted her left ankle and pounced on my whole body. She managed to

    TristanI looked at Elaine, checking every detail of her body. Clearly, the exhaustion in her body was pushed to its limits. We made it up to the last second. The training was a success. But at what cost?“Elaine… Can you hear me?” I asked her.I felt something was odd with her body heat. I touched Elaine’s forehead using the tip of my fingers. It was as hot as a kettle. Her body temperature was soaring high.“This is bad…” I muttered, turning my head around, seeking Elsa and Ruther.Elaine started moaning because of the fever. She twitched her body in different directions. I saw how Elaine clenched her fist, battling against the pain in her.“Elsa!” I called out to her.I gently placed Elaine’s head on the soft pillow and grabbed the towel I threw earlier. Then I soaked it deep into the water in the sink, ran back to Elaine, and placed it on her forehead.“Don’t worry, you’re gonna be alright.” I carefully wiped her head down to her neck, hoping the wet towel would help with the high
