Alpha Sarah's POV.It's been two days since I stepped out of my room, I feel useless and hopeless that I couldn't help the Pack, neither can I get answers to my questions.A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts and my gaze shifted to the door. I walked to the door and opened it, it was Alex, and I let him in. “What are you doing here?” I asked as I sat on the bed. “What do you mean by that? Am I not supposed to me see my girlfriend?” He tried to kiss me, but I pushed him away. “Have you come to tell me more lies?”“How can you say that about me? I've never lied to you and I would never lie to you. Besides, I came here with good news.”“Wow! Good news from you? I bet it's going to be the last I hear.” I shrugged. “Go ahead, I'm all ears.”“No, babe. I can't say it to you now. You have to call the elder's meeting and afterward, call the Pack's meeting.”“All for what? Your good news? You can't be serious.” I scoffed and laid on the bed. “Of course, I'm serious, babe. Please, ju
Alpha Sarah's POV.A sigh of relief contoured with angry escaped my lips."Of course, you have to resign for going against my orders.""No." He shook his head and his face was filled with love and lust. "Not that, my love......"Instant murmurs filled the air but Miss. Eloise remained calm while a soft smile played on her lips."Are those two in love?""What a shameless Alpha she has been for sleeping with her Beta!""I can't even imagine calling her my Alpha again.""Enough!" I yelled and the room was in silent again. "Enough of all those murmurs in my meeting. Yes! What if we're in love? How is that an abomination? It's not like we're siblings." I snapped and my voice reverberated in the living room as I beat my feet on the floor. "We're sorry." They mumbled. I rolled my eyes in disgust and shifted my gaze to the person who created this mess - Alex. He winked at me and smiled which almost got me smiling but I had to control myself. "Do you have anything else to say to this meet
Alpha Sarah's POVI ran deep into the woods with tears escaping from each corners of my eyes.“How dare he?” I thought. “How dare he make me fall in love with me and use it against me?”My wolf halted to catch its breath for a moment.“Let's stop, Diamond. There's no point in running away.” I muttered.I sat there for a while, thinking and overthinking about my life. Nothing had been working for me, but I have to change that now, I have to use every opportunity to my advantage.A smirk appeared on my lips and lit up my face.“This would be the best decision we've ever made, Alex.” I grinned. After spending more time in the woods, I ran back home in my wolf form and dashed into my room to find something to wear. “Heading somewhere?” Mrs. Sophie's voice cut through my thoughts and my gaze swiftly shifted to her.“Yeah!” I nodded. “I need to see Alex, I'll be right back.”She pouted her lips and watched me exit the house. I was almost at Alex's house when I heard a loud scream from Mrs
Lillian's Point Of viewI was in my room, packing my clothes into a travel box when I heard a knock on the door, it was Jameson. “May I come in?” “Sure.” I smiled and sat on the edge of the bed. He walked further into the room and sat on the bed as well, the bag was in between us. “Do you really have to do this, Cupcake?”He stretched out for my hands and I held it out. “I have to, dad. I have to stop him, or he would make another family his victim.”“You don't know what you're getting yourself into. He's more dangerous than you think, baby.”“I know, dad.” My voice lacked the emotions I needed. “I know that, but I can't afford to see another family go through what we went through, it was horrible and hard for us.”“I want you to promise me something.”“Anything for you, d
Isabella's point of viewWe all went down at the sound of the gunshots.“What happened? How come they knew we were coming?”“I have no idea. That bastard! He must have seen me before telling alpha Sarah about Sandro. It was a trap and I fell for it.”Multiple gunshots followed and we heard footsteps approaching us.“We need to hide.” I said in a hushed tone as I pointed toward a table.“We could hide behind it.” Marcus responded.We crawled toward the table and hid behind it. The footsteps suddenly stopped, but I could pick his scent in the room.“You should come out now, I can pick your scent.” He growled.We kept mute while thinking of a way to escape this trap.“What do we do now?” I asked Lillian.“I don't know, but I'm sure he is no match for me.”
Lillian's Point Of View. I slowly regained consciousness as two men dragged me to a room, but I was still weak and needed to find the perfect time to strike. But whatever was in that shot he gave me, it was forceful, and I could still feel it in my blood. Slowly, a grunt escaped my lips, and their eyes looked down at me to see what was wrong. “Are you okay?” One asked, but I kept my head buried in the floor. Due to my unresponsiveness, they continued and dragged me to a small, messy room. The stench from the room was so horrible, and I couldn't stand it for a minute. At this point, I knew I had to fight for my freedom. They were about to leg go of my arms when I swiftly jumped to my feet, they also took a defensive stance immediately. “Is this how you want it? Being treated like an animal because of your stubbornness?” He growled. A faint picture of how they would have treated Beth flashed pass my eyes, and this infuriated me more. Before the other guard could say a word, I sp
Isabella's Point Of ViewThe clouds were growing thicker with each passing seconds, so was the worry in my heart; Lillian was yet to be back.“Don't you think we should go look for her?” I turned to ask Marcus, who was standing above my shoulder.“I am not convinced that would be a good idea, she wouldn't like that as well. She's a strong lady, I'm confident she would be back soon. Let's just give it a little time.” He gave me a soft reassuring squeeze on my shoulder. “And if she doesn't come back? Are we just going to sit here and do nothing?”He took my hands in his and looked at me straight in the eyes.“I'm sure she's fine. Maybe she had some important business to do and she had to attend to it. She'll be here soon, I know that.”“I hope so.” I grumbled and went into the room.Hours went by and there was still no trace of Lillian. I had just woken up from a nap and my eyes fell on the clock: it was some minutes past 8pm, and I dashed to the living room where Marcus was seated wat
Alpha Sarah's Point Of ViewThe next noon, Alex and I had planned to have a small picnic in the woods. I got out of bed early in the morning, and walked to my closest, looking for what nice dress to wear. None of the clothes got my interest and I laid down flat on the bed with a huff.“What on earth would I wear?” I mumbled and tossed to the other side of the bed. The door creaked open and Mrs. Sophie was standing beside it, her hand gripped on the knob. “Is anything the matter? You seem a bit out of it.”I grunted as I sat up and patted the bed, “Yes, Mrs. Sophie. Please, come in.” She stepped into the room, shut the door and walked closer to me but didn't sit. “What's the matter, Alpha Sarah?”“It's this Pack......” I noticed her eyelids; they fluttered. “Yeah, what's it about this Pack?” I smacked my lips gently and looked into her eyes for some seconds without saying anything, making her feel very uncomfortable. “Alpha Sarah? Is something wrong? You don't look quite like th
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
