Calhoun's POV

Silence fills up the atmosphere at the shocking outburst of the man whom my men are holding hostage. Theodore Fitzgerald.

My face squeezes into a frown as I slowly walk up to meet him. While he on the other hand seems completely stiff.

"I have what's yours?" I ask carefully, wanting to know if I misheard him or something.

"Hurry and speak up, perhaps I misheard you," I continue.

At this point, Theodore choose to remain silent as he glared at me right in the eye as if we have been having beef for a long time now.

I know I never got offended by this man until the moment I commanded my guards to hold him. And it was he who still triggered my anger, because his remarks were rather snarky, showing disrespect, when I am way above him.

"What is it that I have which belongs to you, Theodore?" I am getting impatient at this point, hating the fact that he's not responding at all.

"Hurry and speak up now, do not keep Alpha Calhoun waiting," Bruce urges him.

But the man chooses to k

    Kristen's POV"The Greyhound pack run is fast approaching, I wonder who will win this time. Since you aren't participating," It's Nana Joyce. She's visiting for the first time since she heard about my accident."I won twice," I boast, sitting upright on my bed.Nana Joyce puts the curtains out and lets sunlight flow into the room."Calhoun won't let you participate this time, because of your accident," she has this weird look on her face when she shifts her attention back to me."I think so, my first win is memorable," I say, trying to lessen the tension inside of me because I am still worried if anyone saw Theodore sneaking out of my room, and told Calhoun about it."When Calhoun kept cheering for you, I knew he was already fucking you at that time," Nana Joyce blurts out with the suspicious look on her face not wearing out.And I choke on the glass of water I am drinking, and vomit it back into the cup."What?" Nana Joyce asks with a confused frown this time as if she has no idea of

    Kristen's POVOne hour later…"Who is it?" The prison guards hold up their hands to stop me, upon seeing how I neared the large gates."Let me through, I need to speak with someone," I try to fake a rough, masculine voice but it's futile."The gates cannot be opened unless we receive an order from Alpha Calhoun," the taller guard says."I am aware, that's why I'm here," I make this known to them."Who really are you?" One of the guards asks this because I have my eyes fixed at my feet.Leaning closer, I take the hat off to reveal my face.And they gasp upon realizing it's their Luna."Why are you here like this?" They ask in unison."Because I don't want your Alpha to know," I tell them after letting out a sigh.The guards exchange a confused glance before returning their attention to me."Are you here for your mother?" The taller guard takes a step back to examine my face. I can tell because his forehead lines are visible."No, I came to see the new prisoner," I say."You mean the on

    Kristen's POV"You must be out of your mind," it's my time to chuckle."I mean every word, Kristen. Every fucking word," Theodore holds onto the iron bars and stares at me with pleading gray eyes. Eyes that are enough to make me sick. Because I hate the fact that he's affecting me deeply, that we share a connection I never wanted in the first place."How dare you?" I am close enough to yell, but my brain aches so bad that I can't. Now, I am starting to think that I am in the wrong for coming here. Had I known, I would have listened to Doctor Melbourne, taken my medications, and rest like the injured patient that I am."You know I am married to Calhoun, and I have his son," I continue talking by stating the obvious."You can bring the little boy along with you, I'll take care of him as my own," Theodore says softly.And this is close enough to drive me insane."Can you even hear yourself, Theodore? Asking the Greyhound Luna to elope with you, along with her son?" I cast him an incredul

Fear makes his voice shaky, and so does his body tremble."I thought you were going to die, and Alpha Calhoun will end up killing me," he adds."What happened?" I ask because I don't want to think the whole thing with Theodore was a dream. "He brought you here by himself, all the servants were so afraid of him when they saw his wolf. They backed away and let him in." Doctor Melbourne informs me as he sits on the chair next to my bed."Theodore?" I ask."Yes, we thought he was going to kill you, but then he only wanted you to be fine," Doctor Melbourne sighs in relief.I can't believe this occurrence took place while I was freaking unconscious. So much has happened already."The news will

    Calhoun's POV"To think he broke out of this cell," my beta still looks terrified from where he's standing at my side. And I ground my teeth until my jaw begins to hurt as I continue staring at the cell where Theodore had been confined in, a few hours ago."His wolf must be a beast because it takes a lot of strength to do this," Bruce shifts his gaze to the vandalized iron bars on the floor, "Theodore is no ordinary wolf, Calhoun. It's unbelievable to remember how calm he was when you ordered your men to lock. He knew he would escape, that's why he let them lead him away."Leaving my mansion a few hours ago, I didn't know I would be confronted with such horror upon returning home. Kristen sneaked out of her room to meet him in this dungeon, all by herself. Whatever discussion they had, is something I am eager to know because I can feel it in my guts that something is happening between the two of them. And I am a big fat fool because I trusted her too much to confront her."Find him

    Kristen’s POVTwo weeks later.The field has over a thousand people from the Greyhound pack and other neighboring packs who are here for the Greyhound pack run. Something which has been anticipated for a very long time because this time, things are a bit different. Calhoun will ask the winner to demand whatever he or she wants and it will be given.Contestants from other packs are also allowed to partake in the Greyhound run, although it was prohibited before, but this time it's different because everyone is allowed to participate as long as they're above twenty-one years of age.The exact age I was when I participated in the pack run and won.It's almost like yesterday because at that time, Mom was still married to Calhoun and I just figured Calhoun was my mate. We had sex in the rain on the previous night and possibly, Mom didn't know what wasn't happening at that time.So much happened during that time. Calhoun was torn between rejecting me to stay married to my mom or divorcing my

    Kristen’s POVReluctantly, I leave my seat because I cannot say no to Calhoun, or else he will be suspicious. I should be grateful he didn’t ask the man to take his mask off because Theodore will quickly oblige and even state that I am his mate. But on the other hand, I hope this man is not trying to play games with me and my husband, because he’s not even afraid of Calhoun at all. And it’s clear he has an ulterior motive.Placing one unsteady footstep after the other, I walk until I reach Theodore’s side. His height is intimidating of course, and he still has that deep and rich herbaceous smell, something which my nostrils fancy, just because he’s my frigging second mate.The stupid connection is effective on me, and upon seeing how Theodore is staring at me with so much yearning and desperation in his gray eyes, I can feel vomit climbing up to my throat.Stay calm, it will be over before you know it. I assure myself with these words and harden my jaw, just like Calhoun does when he

    Kristen's POV Seeing Theodore in front of the rest of the contestants has me on my edge, and I am just trying to cover it up by holding Aiden. It's clear he truly prepared for this pack run, and the crowd is breaking into a peal of excitement even though they don't know who he is.They're running in their human form but Theodore is faster than all of them, running like his life depends on it. It's impossible to feel relaxed at this point when my second mate has so much potential to win this race, even though there are more stages in front. Once again, I call the attention of Aiden's nanny, and hand the child to her, before leaving my position beside Calhoun, because remaining seated is a bad idea. I stand in front to get a proper view, as I keep hoping something will go wrong with the race and Theodore will be disqualified. While the crowd keeps cheering for the masked man, I throw my hands across my chest, fearing this evening won't end well for me because, from the look of how

We've been trying to find a way to break it, but it's relentless."Gregory, the ever present pain in the assinterjects, "A curse? Are you serious?
