Wendy's Point Of View.Life without my family had been hard, but I kept living with the hopes that one day, I would give them the justice them deserved.Never for once, did I think that someone who frequented my place was the key to who needed to be killed.An evil grinned danced happily on my lips after he accepted for me to move in with him. This would be the perfect time to set up a plan and carry out a neat job at one go.Luckily for me, I have a backup crew and more will be created.“You should go get your things.” He said with a smile that warmed my heart.“So fast?” I thought within me, but loud enough for him to hear.“Sure, I can't wait to take you back with me. This is like a dream come true for me.” He responded. “I'll have the guards get the rest of your things after I become the Alpha again.” He whined with a smile. “That is perfectly okay by me.”I jumped to my feet and walked up the stairs, I walked into my room, packed a few things into a bag and walked down the stair
Alpha Sarah's Point Of View.“What is going on between you two? Why is she in your house dressed so casual?” I asked in a rage, barely after we stepped into the room.“You should take a chill pill, babe. There is absolutely nothing between us, and you know that. She is my witch and I need her closer to me.” He explained in a calm voice, but it sounded much like a lie to me.“Take a chill pill?” A scoff traveled through my lips and my lips curled with disgust.He closed the distance between us, forced me to the bed and plucked my head up before he stole a kiss from me.I turned my head away, wriggling away from him grip.“You should answer my questions, not try to sway me into this situation-ship.” I said, glaring at him.He sat on the bed, beside me, with a soft huff.“You should know me too well, Sarah. Why would I want to make our relationship more complicated than it is already? I'm yet to get Eloise out of the way, do you think I would want to add another problem to it?” He asked,
Alpha Sarah's Point Of View.A smirk played on my lips as I gritted my teeth and took two steps closer to her, staring deeply into her eyes.“And who might you be?” A deep roar escaped my throat.“Someone you never thought you would ever meet.” She responded in a soft tone as if she was playing me.My lips spread open, about to say do something, when I heard Alex's footsteps approach us.“You're still here, babe?” He questioned, walking further into the kitchen with a beaming smile.“Yeah, I was just about leaving. I wanted to thank Wendy for doing the dishes.” I responded as I closed the distance between us and placed a kiss on his lips.“Take care of yourself and don't skip your meal.” He said, I nodded and retreated from the house.I stood in front of the house, looked back at it, and a soft huff surged through my throat. “You better know your limit, Wendy. This might not end well for you.” I snarled and walked away. After a few minutes of walking, I got to the house, but it was
Alpha Sarah's Point Of ViewI turned back towards the direction of the voice, but it was a mother calling out to her child, whose name was also Sarah. She bowed when our eyes met and left with her child.“I thought about what you said earlier. These people are ready to take your life so joy matter how far you run away, they will always come looking for you with just one option. To kill you. I think it's best if we stay this time and fight.” Diamond encouraged me.And I nodded in agreement.“This is my position and I have to protect it. These people are mine to protect.” I said affirmatively.I made my way back to the house. Though I was scared, but I can't let them know that I know about their plan. That would make matter worse. Perhaps, I could go see Isabella tomorrow or meet with her sisters for help.As I walked into the house and found Mrs. Sophie in the living room, my heart skipped a beat.“Is anything wrong, Alpha Sarah?” She asked with a smile.A fake smile that made my lips
Lillian's Point Of View.It's been more than a week since Juan visited my place, and she is yet to return. Thinking about her alone gives me goosebumps and chills at night. Now, I'm lost in a state of confused, fighting between myself and my other half, Elizabeth.It's dark, and I was seated on the grass in front of the house. The moon was in low spirits tonight, just as I am, and its light could barely reach the earth.I heard the door opened and footsteps approached me; it was Isabella.“Still couldn't sleep?” She asked and sat beside me, staring up at the dim moon.“Yes, what about you? Why are you up this late?” I shifted my gaze to her and asked.She turned to me, her face was soaked in sadness and pain.“Is this about Marcus again?” I asked before she could speak a word, but she shook her head.A soft sigh of relief swept through my lips with a gentle nod.“Then what is it about?” I asked, giving her my apt attention.“It's about Elizabeth......” She started in a low voice that
Lillian's Point Of View.“Oh, darling. I knew you would come, and it is really nice to have you here.” She teased, walking toward me.“Of course, it's been such an honor to find you down here.” I replied.Alpha Sarah, who was scared, hid behind me, but I stood in front of Juan.Juan tilted her head to the side, glaring coldly at Alpha Sarah.“Oh, poor Sarah. Didn't you expect to see me here?” She asked, straightened up and looked up at me.I was some inches taller than her.“What exactly brought you here?” She asked with a straight look.“Is this where you live? In the middle of nowhere? Living like a wild animal?” I sassed.But my face grew into rage, ready to tear me apart. However, she curbed her anger.“Very soon, you will regret what you said.” She growled.A chuckle swept through my mouth.“Very soon, you say? Well, I'll be eagerly awaiting it.” I said, the smirk on my face turned into a frown contoured with a straight look. “Now, what did you do to Elizabeth?” I asked, growlin
Marcus's Point Of View.It's been about two weeks since Isabella left with Beth and Jameson, and I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about that. But I'm certain she left, leaving a void in my heart.I was seated in the living room, fiddling with my phone, when Jules walked in with a bright smile that beamed on her face.“Hey, baby.” She uttered in a singsong tone, smiling brightly as she placed a kiss on my lips.I glanced at her, rolling my eyes as they landed back on my phone. She glared at me, sat on lap, wrapping her arms around my neck while she plucked my head with the tip of her fingers, still smiling brightly.“What? Is something wrong?” She asked with our eyes locked.“What do you want, Jules?” I grunted, adjusting my legs to accommodate her weight.“Why are you this way to me? I thought you loved me, and you wanted to be with me. Why are you giving me such attitudes since Isabella left?” She lamented aggressively with her lips pouted.“Really? You thought I loved you. Yes,
Lillian's Point Of View.I had picked a familiar scent from afar. A scent that would breathe his last breath the day we meet.A day like this happened too soon, and I never knew he would be the one who would walk to me.I grabbed the knob, opened the door and stepped out of the house. His eyes dropped like he had just seen a ghost.Of course, he told Isabella I was dead so, that makes me dead to him.“What a sweet man you are, Marcus!” I whined, licking my lips as I stared at him.He took some steps backwards as I approached him, but I did not stop walking to him.“I never knew you could walk to me yourself. Why? Are you that tired of life that you had to come find death?” A scary grin escaped my mouth.“No,” he shook his head with his hands stretched forth and waving at me. “It's not what you think, I know how, but you probably hate me right now, but it's not what you are thinking.” He pleaded, still taking slow steps backwards.“Really? What do you think I'm thinking? And what are yo
Lilian’s POVThe Palace looked almost magical in the soft morning light. Every corner shimmered, as though someone had scrubbed away the horrors of last night. But no amount of sunlight could erase the memories that lingered in my mind.I stood in the back, blending in with the crowd of Pack members. They cheered and clapped for Sarah, who stood in front of us with Alex by her side. Their smiles were genuine, their faces bright with hope, but I couldn’t join them.Beth’s face haunted me. Her last moments played over and over in my head, the way her body had gone still under the stars, the way her lips had whispered words I couldn’t quite hear. I swallowed hard, trying to push the images away, but they clung to me like shadows.Sarah raised her hands, and the room quieted. Her voice rang out, clear and strong. “Today, we celebrate the dawn of a new chapter for our Pack. We’ve endured pain, loss, and betrayal, but the Moon Goddess has guided us to this moment. Together, we’ll rebuild, s
Alpha Sarah's POVPower surged through my veins like nothing I had ever felt before. It was raw, wild, and untamed. Every fiber of my being burned with an intensity that demanded release. As Wendy lunged at me, her face twisted with hatred, I didn’t flinch. My roar erupted from deep within, shaking the very walls of the cave. The force of it sent Wendy hurtling backward, slamming against the jagged stone with a sickening crunch.She crumpled to the ground, her body limp. I should’ve felt relief, maybe even triumph. But all I felt was rage.“You brought this on yourself,” I growled, stepping closer. My claws ached to finish what she had started, to ensure she could never hurt anyone else again.Wendy groaned, her head tilting up just enough to glare at me. “You think this ends with me?” she spat, blood dripping from her mouth. “You’re just a pawn in something much bigger.”Before I could respond, movement in the corner of my eye drew my attention.Juan's POVThis wasn’t how it was supp
Alex’s POV“You think you can just walk away from this?”Juan’s voice tore through the silence like a whip, hitting me hard. I flinched, though I refused to show it. His sharp tone echoed off the stone walls. The air was already heavy with uneasiness, but his anger made it suffocating. His eyes burned with fury, his fists tight at his sides, ready to lash out.I stood still, staring at her. Around us, the remnants of the chaos—the broken furniture, shattered glass, and bloodstained floors—served as grim reminders of what had just happened. But Juan’s anger was a storm brewing on top of it all, and it was directed straight at me.“What do you want from me?” I finally snapped, my voice sharp as a blade. My chest heaved with frustration, the weight of her accusations pressing hard against me. “You think I planned this? That I wanted any of this to happen?”“You’re not innocent, Alex!” Juan roared, stepping closer. Her face twisted with rage. “You’re just like the rest of them! You carry
Alpha Sarah's POVThe air felt heavy, not just with the cool night but with the weight of everything that had just unfolded. Alex had broken down moments earlier, consumed by the ghost of his father’s voice. I had held him, trying to comfort the mate I still loved, even after everything. But there was no time for peace tonight.A sharp scream tore through the silence, wrenching us all back into reality.Beth's POVI knew I didn’t have much time. While the others were distracted, I moved toward Lilian, clutching the vial of antidote in my shaking hands. Lilian’s body was too still, her breathing too shallow. I knelt beside her, gently cradling her head as tears streamed down my face.“Just hold on,” I whispered, uncorking the vial. “You’re going to be okay.”But I didn’t see Wendy until it was too late.At first, I didn’t even realize I had been stabbed. There was only a strange pressure in my chest, like I had forgotten how to breathe. Then came the burning, fire spreading from the po
Alex's Point of ViewThe night pressed in around us, suffocating the air with an eerie silence that seemed to hold us all captive. My heart raced, my breath shallow as I stood beside Wendy. We were surrounded by a thick wall of shadows, the only light coming from the moon above, filtering through the trees. In the center of our circle, Lilian’s limp form lay motionless, her once strong presence reduced to a fragile shadow.Beth’s potion had worked too well. Too well, in fact. I could barely look at Lilian’s face, though her eyes, open and filled with an unspoken plea, forced me to meet them. Her lips trembled as if she wanted to speak, but no sound came out. The weight of her silent cry lodged in my chest like a stone. I had never intended for things to go this far, but here we were. And now, there was no turning back.I could hear Juan, Sandro, and Elena whispering to each other, their voices hushed but urgent, forming a protective barrier around us. Their eyes darted constantly from
Beth's POVThe stench of blood still clung to my hands as we left Mrs. Sophie’s garden, my heart hammering against my ribs. I couldn’t shake the image of her lifeless body from my mind. Killing her was necessary, I kept telling myself, but the weight of it sat heavy on my chest.I glanced at Isabella, her face pale and blank, her usually sharp eyes now distant. She hadn’t spoken a word since we left. Her silence was louder than any scream, and it unnerved me.The walk to the Palace felt endless. When we finally reached its towering doors, I noticed how the place seemed darker, colder, as if the walls themselves had absorbed the weight of our sins.Marcus stood at the top of the grand staircase, his gaze fixed on us. His face was unreadable, but I could see the pressure in his shoulders.Isabella froze the moment her eyes landed on him. Her silence broke with a venom-laced hiss."I'm saving Lilian without your help!" she snapped, her voice trembling with anger and grief. She turned on
Isabel's POVMy hands trembled as I stared at the person standing in Mrs. Sophie’s living room. Beth. The same Beth who had given Lilian away all in the name of whatever she was plotting with Juan. The same Beth the whole Pack thought was dead. The same Beth who the Pack thought betrayed them all. She might not have betrayed them but she betrayed me and Lillian, for that, I dint think I would ever be able to forgive her. Seeing her now felt like the ground beneath me had been ripped away, leaving me teetering on the edge of a dark abyss.I wanted to run, to escape the suffocating unease in the room, but Alpha Sarah’s firm grip on my arm kept me rooted in place. Her sharp nails dug into my skin, a reminder that I wasn’t going anywhere.“Please, Isabel,” Alpha Sarah said, her commanding voice softened to a rare whisper. “Just listen. We need both of you if we want any chance of saving Lilian.”The mention of Lilian’s name hit me like a punch to the gut. My sister was out there somewher
Wendy's Point Of view.The day was rather too slow than I expected it to be but I endured through the night. I tossed to the other side of the bed and when I groggily opened my eyes, it was met with the alarm clock.It was time to get out of bed. I threw the bedsheet over my body and got out of bed. Though it was still dark outside, this is the best time to start getting ready for the ritual."Such a good day to die, Alpha Sarah." A satisfied smile flashed on my lips.I made my way into the bathroom and took my time. After some minutes, I stepped out of the bathroom back into the room with a towel wrapped to my chest.I sat on the edge of the bed and applied lotion on my body while I hummed a slow romantic song. The sky was a bit clearer and it was time to step out if the house.I hurriedly got dressed and retreated from the house, I would have taken Alex's car but I would not want to disturb his sleep. So I walked out of the compound and trekked to the bus station where I boared a bu
Alpha Sarah's Point Of View.My face twitched with confusion as I couldn't place where I had seen the face, but I knew for certain that it was a familiar face.“Who are you? And what do you mean by you're the answer I seek? I seek nothing and I do not appreciate you calling me out like this in the middle of the night.” I warned fiercely and was about to leave when the lady stopped me.“Wait, Alpha Sarah, unless you have no interest in knowing what your mission is as the Alpha of this Pack. Seeing, you have until the end of tomorrow to remain Alpha.” She said, her voice was clouded with confidence and it clicked!This must be the bumper I saw earlier on my way home. I slowly turned to her with my brows twitched, my eyes scanning her from her head to toe.“Of course, I'm the bumper you met earlier, and I told you I would've back soon.” She uttered with a smile.“I never knew it would be this fast,” I crossed my arms against my chest with my head slightly tilted.“Well, there isn't much
