Alpha Lance’s POV. I felt a surge of anger rise up in me as Ingrid recounted the events that had transpired. How dare Inez disobey her and sneak out of the Packhouse? Did she not understand the consequences of her actions?My fists clenched at my sides as Ingrid continued to cry, her words becoming more and more jumbled as she spoke. I could feel my heart rate increasing as my mind raced with thoughts of punishment and retribution."Ingrid, calm down," I said firmly, my voice low and commanding. "I will take care of this. Where is Inez now?""I don't know. She is not in her room," Ingrid sniffled, wiping away tears with the back of her hand. "I-I didn't know what else to do. I didn't want to make any decisions without your permission."I nodded, my jaw set in determination. "You did the right thing by coming to me," I said, my voice softening slightly. "But you need to trust me to handle this. I won't let Inez get away with disobeying you."Ingrid nodded, seeming to calm down slight
LIAM'S POV.I woke up that morning, still feeling the weight of the meeting with my elders the previous day. It had been chaotic, with accusations flying back and forth. They had accused me of killing my father, and no matter how many times I told them I didn't do it, they wouldn't listen. Finally, in a fit of anger, I yelled at them that I did kill him. They all shut up after that, and I left the meeting feeling frustrated and exhausted.As I lay in bed, I couldn't help but think about the accusations that had been leveled against me. I knew they were baseless, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was going on. And then there was the letter that Lance had sent us about Inez. I had suspected that something was wrong from the moment I read it.I got up from bed and made my way to the door when there was a knock. I groaned and grabbed a cloak to cover my nakedness before opening the door. The guard on duty handed me a letter. It was from Lance, and it confirmed my suspicion
Liam’s POV.I walked into Lance’s pack and was immediately greeted by the commotion of the guards running around, trying to attend to one thing or the other. I could see how distraught they were and I knew something was not right. As I made my way through the crowd, I caught sight of Alpha Lance who was looking particularly dishevelled. I greeted him briefly but he didn't even respond to some of the things I asked.Ignoring Lance’s state, I walked towards where Inez was being attended to. I could see her lying there, unconscious and vulnerable. It was a sight that struck a chord within me, making me feel helpless and angry all at once.The pack physician was working on her, trying his best to stabilise her condition. I could see the sweat on his brow and the intensity in his eyes, which told me that it was not looking good. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, worried for her and what might happen to her.As I stood there, watching her, I couldn't help but wonder what could hav
LIAM'S POV.Lance and I stepped outside the infirmary room and the tension between us was palpable. We didn't speak a word to each other as we walked in silence. But then, without warning, we both simultaneously changed into our wolf forms.My body began to tingle, and I could feel the change coming over me. My bones elongated and reshaped themselves, my skin stretching and growing fur. In a matter of seconds, I was no longer a man, but a powerful wolf. I shook my fur out, feeling the freedom and exhilaration that came with being in my true form.Beside me, Lance went through the same transformation. His fur was a sleek, shiny black, reflecting the moon's light like a million tiny diamonds. His eyes were a piercing blue that seemed to glow with an otherworldly intensity. His muscles rippled and bulged, revealing a power that was both awe-inspiring and intimidating.His body was massive, easily twice the size of my own wolf, with long legs and a broad chest that made him look like a pr
Inez’s POVAn electric wave shocked me and I gave Alpha Liam a faint smile. He squirted his eyes before lifting his head from the side of the bed. “I am sorry, I shouldn’t have fallen asleep here.” He apologized, wiping the side of his lips and I found it cute.I could only nod my head, lost for words because I wasn’t sure of what to tell him. I don’t want to mess this up when he is the only one acting nice to me. Among the three mates that I was destined to have, only one looks like he cares about me and I can see that he is very sincere about it. He is not faking it. “How are you feeling?” He asked, jerking me out of my reveries.“Fine.” I croaked.“Are you sure?” He asked again, searching for something in my eyes.Something I can’t give out even though I am not sure of what he wants to find out. “Yes.” I affirmed.“Can you remember the night that you were attacked?” That night, when I was attacked has to be the worst ever. I didn’t even get to see the face of my attacker. Heck, I
Lance’s POVIn my hand was a file and also a letter sent by the Alpha of Shadow Pack. He wants me, I mean the pack house to help them out with foodstuff and some of my guards after their pack was destroyed.Unlike here, their pack was attacked by an insider, someone no one would ever think would do something like that. The beta betrayed the Alpha and not only the Alpha, but the entire pack. What a shame. “So what is the best suggestion here?” I asked Henry, my beta.Beta Henry had returned from his travel in search of his mother immediately he got the message that the pack was attacked. Someone would have stayed back, seeing that I am capable enough to get the culprit but Henry, well, he said it was better that he comes back and we take care of it altogether.“Giving them a few guards won’t hurt and besides we have a lot of food stock from last year. No, we have a lot to keep us for more than three years. So it will be okay if we help them.” He suggested.He dropped the file on the ta
Alpha Liam’s POVI just couldn’t believe that Lance has a whole folder concerning the attack on the Shadow pack. The date that the file was issued was a week before the attack. So why does he have it? “I am asking Lance, what are you doing with this?” I repeated, dropping the entire file on the desk.Some images that I had missed dropped down from the file and I ignored them. “What if I was the mastermind behind it?” He smirked, rising his brows.“Then I am not amazed that you did but I am disappointed Lance. You claim to be the leader of all, then why opt for this way?”This is something Lance could do without any reason, that I know of but as long as I remembered, he and the Alpha of Shadow Pack go back a long way. They are best friends. “I need to dig more dirt to cover the dirt.” He responded.I chuckled. “That was the only option you had? So would you burn down my pack because I know the truth now?” I challenged.And to be honest, I would love to see him try. This is the worst he
Alpha Phineas’s POVI huffed out the smoke into the air feeling energetic. I firmly stood by the balcony trail, watching whatever was occurring in the pack house and outside. “You know smoking in the pack house isn’t allowed, boy.” A voice mumbled behind me.Without my knowledge and permission, the cigarette was snatched away from my phone and I watched as my father threw it to the other side of the pack. “But I am the Alpha.” I pointed.I wonder when this man will treat me as an Alpha for once in his life. If only my mother is to be alive, then he wouldn’t have been acting this way. Damn, I hate him. “You are the Alpha indeed but we still live by my rules here.” “As long as you are in the confinement of this pack, then you must obey my rules.” He added.I scoffed at what he had said and ignored his existence by my side. Silence fell upon us as we both had our attention on the scene ahead of us.A girl was being dragged away because she was caught stealing from the pack house. Someth
Words got to Liam about the danger Inez was in and he beat himself up for not believing her when she told him about what happened at Dragon pack.How could he have doubted her?He knew that Dragon pack was involved in this and he hurriedly made his way to Lance in a bid to help them and take Inez back to his palace.He got there and the sight of Zane having a knife on Inez’s throat got him angry. Staring directly at Zane, he ordered that he let her go but Zane proved to be stubborn.“Since you’re the strongest amongst them,” Zane started as he pushed Inez off of him without caring about the fact that she hit her head.Liam immediately sprung to her side and helped her up, “Are you Okay?” He asked and with one of her hands on her head she nodded positively even though it felt like her head had been split in half.“Fight me and let me see how strong they claim you are.” Zane finished as he charged towards Liam with his sword.Liam was fast enough to swerve so Zane would go beyond him and
The members were taken aback at how firm her disagreement was and a slight smirk played out on her face when she stared at the one who’d asked her to be on their side.“Seize her!” He ordered and once again she was held captive. Inez screamed when the whip touched her feet and the tears dropped from her face.They could do whatever they wanted, she’s not going to join them in whatever quest they had planned. She could feel all the strength she had draining when she was released.Falling to the ground, Inez laid there for a while with her eyes shut and the ability to move left her as her body quivered in pain.Her dress was already drenched in blood and there were bruises all over her body, she could feel the metallic taste of blood in her mouth from the side of her lips.“You have a choice and it really doesn’t have to be this way, join us and let us help you.” The man in charge of torturing her offered again but Inez stood her ground.The sound of her wails filled the air when the kn
Alpha Liam was happy to see her, he was glad about the fact that she came back to him but being a poor communicator and having a horrible way to express his emotions, he hid that fact from her. He wanted to hold her so close to him, he wanted to hug her and make sure that he feels every ounce of her but instead he’d turned deaf ears to her pleas of staying with him and sent her to Alpha Phineas instead.But now that she’s back to him he sent words to Apha Phineas to inform him that Inez was with him and so he shouldn’t bother looking for her since he’d come to pick her up himself which was a lie because Inez ran back to him.“Tell him I needed her help and she’ll be staying with me for a couple more days so he shouldn’t expect her.” He informed the guard that was supposed to relay the message to Alpha Phineas.Watching the guard leave the room, Inez heaved out a sigh of relief as she closed her eyes with her palm on her chest. She knew the person she felt the most drawn to was Alpha
“Ingrid, wait!” Alpha Lance chased after Ingrid breathlessly, he knew that there was nothing he could say to explain what the situation she saw in the chamber was.“How dare you!” She snapped as she turned to face him, her face red with rage and her eyes blazing with anger.“How dare you try to come out here and stop me from leaving!” She yelled as she raised her hand and her palm landed on Alpha Lance’s face. It was the second time he would be getting slapped but he understood Ingrid.“I’m sorry, he apologized,” his breathing paced as he tried to hold her but she inched away from him, “it’s not what you think, I really can explain.” He let out and Ingrid bursted out laughing.She thought her ears were playing tricks on her but it turns out that she’d really heard him right, he really just said that he could explain when she saw it all clearly with her own eyes.What could he possibly want to explain?“You can explain, Lance?” She asked rhetorically with one of her eyebrows raised, “w
Alpha Lance, who knew what he was doing thought about mating with her and also making her one of his fleets of concubines without the knowledge of her other mates.He began treating her nicely and hoped that she would fall for his antics and that he would finally get to have his way with her but none of his plans were working out.He had tried everything within his power to get her but the more he tried the more it seemed like she was drifting far away from him and with Inez’s stubbornness he knew that he couldn’t do much but forcefully have his way with her in order for him to get what he wants.“What else do you want?” He asked, his voice echoing and letting out all of the frustration he felt but tried to keep in because he wouldn’t want her thinking that the only thing he wanted her for was so she could become his mistress.“I have bought you flowers, I was there for you when you looked around and probably saw no one, I have tried to be nice and I became a completely different pers
Inez’s POVEver since she was taken away by Beta Henry, she had already made her plan. That she would run away, because staying with Alpha Lance and letting him have his way with her is going to kill her and she doesn’t want that. The night was still young, from the balcony Inez counted the guards there and they were twelve but as time passes, they remained five.It means that as the night goes on, the less the guards are by the gate so she decided to wait until they are around two or three, that would make her escape plans pretty much easier than anything. When she was brought to the room as Alpha Lance had asked, she was fed, given pain killers and also, some paste which Beta Henry claimed that the pack seer had sent it. Just had left it where she had her food, having so many thoughts about it. “If they really want to poison me, then they would used the food.” She thought. It has been quite a while since she has eaten and nothing has happened to her. So she picked up the paste,
Inez’s POVAfter three days, Inez was unconsciously moved to the Dark Moon pack, against. She wasn’t really unconscious that day, dhe just pretended to be. While on their way, she heard them saying that Alpha Phineas was going to give me his own part of punishment. And not for once was she scared. She was anticipating everything that would happen to her. Once again, she was threw into a cell but this time, it is bright. There is light in each of the cells and she was alone, no one to keep her company. Her hate the fact thather couldn’t come with Das with her, even though that is selfishness. Just the few days they had spent together, Inez have grown attached to Das and it is scrappy. Das was the one that told her about Agnes being punished also, she felt bad.When Inez had asked her how she had found out, she said it wasn’t something I should be worried about. That Inez should be happy because Agnes was getting a share of what she had done. But to be honest, but Inez really wasn’t.
Inez’s POVHer body has become numb, in the sense that she wasn’t feeling any more pain resonate through her.She pants harder as she was being unstrapped from the chair and her limp body fell with a thud. “Take her back to the dungeon and she shouldn’t be given any food yet.” She faintly heard Alpha Lance’s voice in the background ordered.She swallowed hard. It wasn’t as if she was expecting to be fed or anything. But at least, she will get to rest, and maybe, her body will heal faster.Where is Alpha Liam when she needs him? Or is he among them, joining hands to kill her? No, she dismissed the thoughts.That can never be true. Alpha Liam loves her, she believes that, and also, her heart yearns for him. She also loves him but declaring her love for him will only make her get more hatred from the world.She was lifted like a child and the guard hung her around his shoulders as they walked out. She was still stark naked, none of them had attempted to get something to close her up. Alp
Alpha Liam’s POVMarilyn held his hand, giving it a tight squeeze. It feels like she doesn’t enjoy the fact she is staying at the Blood Moon pack. “Are you sure you are okay?” Alpha Liam asked her.She gave him a faint smile, giving his hand a chaste kiss, a sibling kiss. “Of course, I am, why do you keep asking me?” She questioned.He could only nod his head at her because he can’t tell her the fact that he doesn't believe her words. She looks like someone that had been malnourished, well, except for the part where her legs were beginning to heal. “Alpha Lance might be a bastard, but he does take care of me.” She informed.“I am glad to hear that. Mother had no idea I was coming here, she would have.” He started but Marilyn finished off for him and they laughed together.“She would have followed you and made it a big deal if she sees me this way.” Marilyn laughed again.“Yes, and she would have dragged you back home. A typical thing mother can do.” He added.Marilyn heaved a sigh, sq
