FIONA'S POV★Lily was waiting by the vehicle. It’s been a wonderful job. It was easy to seduce the guard Ansel placed by the car that bore Valerie’s body.I enjoyed fucking the guard’s senses off and hitting his smashing his head with a stone when he climaxed and poured his cum in me and wiped his dick on the lining of my ass.I could remember him dropping to the earth like a log of wood, his fingers twirling on the earth and his legs wobbling. I can’t forget the smile that braced my face at the sight of the evil I did.Ansel; I had always thought he is the smartest of the alphas because of how clever he is in the business of smiting criminals, but it was quite easy tailing him and getting my hands on his biggest secret.But I didn’t do it alone. Someone tipped me off. Someone I don’t know. I ambled towards Lily and shook hands with her. She is one of the core haters of the wench that calls herself Valerie.It was all smiles. We finally had the body of our enemy in our crisp.“Let’s
FIONA'S POV★The dense woods enveloped me as I navigated the narrow, winding path that cut through the woods. I had to take the woods so that I wouldn't be found easily. If anyone had found out that Valerie was missing before I am prepared at least the woods would give her a little protection from her pursuers.My hands firmly gripped the steering wheel as I sped up the path. I had to drive faster before I was caught and then everything would be over. I had to dispose of Valerie quickly.For a moment there, I became fixated on the late evening sunset. Its reddish-orange rays cast a warm and amber glow through the leaves in the woods. I felt a bit calm as I drove down the woods. Once Valerie was delivered to the Alohas, I would be free and everything would be over.In a matter of minutes, it was night. It was getting too dark for me to see with just my eyesight but I didn't want to risk being seen by anyone but I didn't have a choice. I turned on the headlights and got a clearer view
VALERIE'S POV★I finally came to a stop. I sat up immediately to catch my breath. There was no time to waste. I looked around for a sharp stone to help cut the rope tied around my hands.Luckily, I saw one and I crawled towards it. I backed the coarse stone and quickly scratched the rope tied around my hands against the stone. I gritted my teeth as I felt the stone peeling my skin but the pain didn't matter.I just had to be set free. I managed to cut the ropes off. I exhaled in relief and quickly tore off the ropes tied around my legs. I got up immediately but my legs wobbled, giving up on me. I fell to the ground. I was in a coma for five days.My body was not strong enough for such an action but I had to move. Everywhere was pitch black but I could use it to my advantage. Fiona would not find me so easily.I slowly stood up, using a tree as a support beam. I began limping, holding onto trees as I progressed further."Where do you think you're going to?" Fiona's voice echoed behind
ANSEL’S POV★The air in the dimly lit room hung heavy with tension as Kaden observed me with concern and disbelief. My eyes darted around and my hands trembled. Kaden crossed his arms."You have lost your damn mind, Ansel." Kaden said calmly, "Here I thought I was the only one losing my mind because of Valerie's death.""Ansel, what's going on?" Kaden asked in a low, steady voice. Kaden had heard of ways werewolves behave when they lose their mates. Tragically, some end their lives. I must have been losing my mind over the death of my mate."Kaden, you're not listening to what I'm telling you. Valerie is..." I said, frustrated. "Ansel, you need to calm down," Kaden urged, standing up and coming towards me."Kaden, I'm serious. Valerie is still alive." I persisted.Kaden's laughter cut through the air. "Calm down, Ansel. You have heard of werewolves that lose their mate. I think you're going through depression. You can't accept Valerie's death."Kaden helped me sit on the bed, "Anse
GREY’S POV★I stumbled through the moonlit forest. I huddled in the forest, the pain twisting my insides like a hungry wolf. My heart was an echoing cavern of grief.I felt helpless. I felt hopeless. There was nothing I could do. I just wanted to die off it all.Every breath was a stab, every step a reminder of what I had lost. It felt just like the night our mother died, the air thick with a cold, heavy despair.I felt like I was dying, just like when my mother had taken her last breath. Back then, the pain had driven me to swear off love, fearing it would be my undoing. Now, it was Valerie, my mate, who had ripped my heart out.With that, there was no way I would heal.I swore then, never again. Never love like that, never open myself to such pain. But I had failed. Valerie, my mate, she had ripped me open from the inside out. Now, the agony mirrored the bite that marked me as a werewolf, clawing at me deeper with each agonizing beat of my heart.I collapsed onto the damp earth, le
GREY'S POV★The security footage played on a loop in my mind, a silent and searing accusation on repeat. As the scene crackled on the screen, each frame was a punch to the gut.They flanked me, their faces grim masks reflecting the turmoil churning inside me. My brothers.Kaden's growl rumbled beside me, mimicking the fury churning in my gut. Ansel stood silent, but the tension radiating from him was palpable.There, clear as day, was Lily. Her face was pale and drawn, standing next to a figure cloaked in shadow.The sting wasn't her presence; it was the figure beside her, cloaked in darkness, yet undeniably clad in the uniform of a trusted guard.The uniform was unmistakable. Clinton, my most trusted guard. The very same Clinton I would entrust with Valerie's remains after... after her light had been snuffed out. The one entrusted with helping Lily move Valerie's body.He swore to safeguard Valerie's body after…after everything. Lily's face was something I couldn't decipher but it w
GREY'S POV★The adrenaline thrummed in my veins like a war drum, fueled by the raw need for vengeance. The heaviness of my sensitivity clung to me like a second skin, mingling with the metallic tang of blood and sweat.We'd finally nabbed Clinton, the mutt who sold out our pack. Clinton, the traitor who split our pack's trust with that evil she-wolf, Lily.Every fiber of my being screamed for a different kind of chase — one with fangs and claws, ending with the taste of traitorous blood on my tongue; to rip him apart, to shift and let my wolf tear into his throat.My wolf clawed at its cage, yearning to rip him to shreds, each ragged breath a growl trapped in my throat. I just wanted to kill. I was going crazy.But Kaden, ever the voice of a beacon of reason in the storm, cut through the primal rage and reminded me: that Clinton could be the key to finding Lily"He can lead us to Lily," he said, his words calm amidst the panting and guttural growls.He was right. I agreed.Rage morph
36GREY'S POV★My chest heaved, breath rasping in my throat.My muscles screamed from the frantic chase, but adrenaline still pumped through my veins. Adrenaline and rage.Clinton might as well be a deer carcass for the storm brewing inside me and sprawling at our feet.The heaviness of my sensitivity clung to me like a second skin, mingling with the metallic tang of blood and sweat.I was in a rage for vengeance. His scent was heavy in the air.He had been playing us on a wild goose chase. How dare he!My wolf clawed at its cage, yearning to rip him to shreds, each ragged breath a growl trapped in my throat. I just wanted to kill. I was going crazy."Enough!" Kaden's voice snapped, his eyes blazing with the same fury I felt. "We need information, not bloodshed.""Let me at him," I growled, claws itching to rip through his thin disguise of humanity. His face, twisted in defiance, fueled the fire. He knew Lily. He took her.But Kaden was right. We needed to find Lily, and Clinton was
ValerieI ran out of the room, unable to bear the way they all looked at me, especially Kaden with the hatred in his eyes. These men were the men who would have killed anyone who spoke to me in that manner, but because they lost their memories, i was nothing but a stranger who killed tried to kill their cousin. I even thought Ansel wouldn't be so hard on me because of the moment we had the last time, but it seemed like that meant little to nothing to him now. I meant nothing now. How was i supposed to accomplish my mission and stop doom if on my first day, they hated me? I almost caused harm to Dennis. I could have gotten that little angel injured because i was stupid enough to request for Skylar to do something that risky.I finally stopped in an emoty hallway, and cried into my hands. Maybe it was a good thing i already placed Elara in Sky’s room with the spare key I have. All the tears and frustration i felt came pourig down, and i couldnt keep it in. i was such a failure,and i ha
Valerie's POVThe first thing I saw when I stepped through the pack’s border was chaos. Blood stained the earth, and the metallic tang of it filled the air. Wolves fought viciously, claws tearing into flesh as the sounds of snarls and cries filled the forest. I froze for a moment, the intensity of it all overwhelming me. This was not the kind of welcome I’d anticipated.Then I saw her—Skylar—her usually vibrant energy now subdued as she cradled her son in her arms. My heart clenched at the sight of her cowering near a fallen tree, a rogue looming over her with deadly intent. Before I could move to help, a flash of fur blurred past me, and I saw Grey—his wolf form tearing into the rogues with feral determination..When Grey reached Skylar, she was already bleeding, her abdomen slashed open by the rogue’s claws. My stomach churned as I watched the strange woman step in, her magic weaving a protective barrier and then healing Skylar with her spellIt wasn’t long before the battle subsid
GreyAfter we left the office, Ramona let out a loud sigh. “Gosh i dont think ive ever felt that intimidated before. You alphas are sexy but damn.”I let out a chuckle, knowing that she was right, but they werent always bad. But now was a time where we had to be cautious. We were alreadfy under a lot of pressure. This wasnt the time to trust foolishly like Kaden may think i currently am doing. Yes i attracted to her but that dudnt mean i trusted her with my life. I already made up my mind to put her under survelliance. “Butr you arent like that are you? Yes sexy, but not that intimidating? Or you are more of a sneaky type?”Flirty little Ramona batted her eyelashes at me, and i rolled my eyes in response, a smirk tugging at the corner of my lips. “Sneaky isn’t my style. I’d rather people know exactly where they stand with me,” I said, my tone even. “And right now, you’re somewhere between mildly useful and highly suspicious.”Ramona feigned a gasp, pressing a hand to her chest drama
KadenI sat at the desk in the pack's office, flipping through reports with little interest. The usual mess of figures and documents had all but blurred together, but my mind wasn’t on the pack's business. It wasn’t on anything at all, really, except the pit in my stomach that hadn’t left since Patricia had slipped through our fingers and since i saw that cloaked Sky’s friend."Another dead end?" Ansel's voice broke through the silence, making me glance up. He was leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, his expression a mirror of my own frustration."Yeah," I muttered, tossing the report aside. "Nothing. No one’s seen her for days, and the trail’s gone cold."He gave a sharp nod. "I don’t like it. Feels like we’re being played."I rubbed my eyes, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on me. I wasn’t used to feeling like this—helpless, like I was chasing shadows. It hadn’t even crossed my mind until now, but the way Ansel had said it… we’re being played."Any luck wit
GreyPatricia has been unavailable for a few days since we went on that date, and we lost the only lead we had. Kaden refused to let me live that down, blaming me for letting her slip away and also blaming Ansel for treating her badly in the past. How were we supposed to know she was going to slip away? I did feel a good vibe from her that day, and although I felt bad for trying to use her, I believed we had reached a head way in our plan.This just confirmed she was hiding something and I was on edge trying to figure it out.The young soldiers trained hard as the assistant general, Hans, trained them while I texted Patricia for the tenth time, and still got no reply.“Fucking hell.” I grunted as I refrained from slamming my phone against the training dummy at the opposite side of the field. “At ease, Soldiers. You have ten minutes to rest. Regroup immediately after the break is over.” Hans commanded and the young soldiers bolted away, wanting to use their break well.Hans walked tow
alerie“How could you give up your powers just like that? You are the strongest being under the Moon Goddess, and you would just give that up for some witch with a vendetta? What the hell were you thinking?”Coral screeched at me the minute I got up from the spell circle, and I sighed in anger.I could feel a migraine coming on, and I knew Coral wouldn’t let this go. She was the right hand. If I lost my powers, there wouldn’t be a shrine for them.But that's nothing compared to letting that prophecy come to pass. And I do not regret my sacrifice. But one month? My spell was supposed to be strong because of their will to find me, but now I realized that was going to be a big problem. I had to trigger their memories.I rubbed my temples, trying to ease the pounding in my head as Coral’s words cut through the air, her worry mingling with her anger. She had every right to be upset, and yet I couldn’t afford to dwell on my regret or second-guess my choice.“Coral,” I said, my voice resolut
Valerie My heart thundered against my ribcage as i hurriedly left the presence of Ansel, Kaden and Grey, who stared me down as i left Skylar’s room. I could swear i saw Kaden glaring at me, which made it harder for me to make my decision. There was a way i could get us all out of this, and it may even ruin everything. But i wasn't going to give up without trying my best to have my mates back, our life back. So i left the pack with Elara, and headed back to my cottage where Coral was livid as she kept calling my line. Patricia was busy with a spell and I peeled my eyes off her, clearing my throat so that they could know i was in front of them. “Hey guys.” Coral’s eyes widened as she took me in, and she let out a sigh, which instantly turned to anger as she stormed towards me. “What the hell were you thinking, Val? Why would you leave without letting me know? I was worried sick something happened to you and Elara and Patricia couldn't locate you with a locator spell..” She took a
Ansel Grey rumbled on as Kaden chirped in reply but i couldnt concentrate as i stared at them. Only ne thing was in my mind. The cloaked stranger, Skylar’s weird friend. She was the most beautiful woman i had ever seen in reality, and ve seen, been and been inside millions of women. No one was as beautiful as she was. Maybe the baby in her hands. For some reason, i couldnt just get her out of mind, despite not being able to see her face well, but the little i saw seems to have a lasting effect. I just couldnt concentrate on anything except her soft lips, her violet eyes… I couldnt concentrate on the plan to ffind out the memory wiper when this woman plagued my mind. “Hey asshole.” Grey threw a squeezed sheet of paper at me, pulling me out of my trance. Kaden rose a brow at me, and i could see him calculate what i was thinking behind his cocky stupid brain. A smirk appeared on his face and i knew he figured it out. “The cloaked woman, wasnt truly a skank was she now? If she was, yo
Valerie Skylar pulled away, her nose red from her sniffling, and I was sure that I looked the exact same way. A giggle escaped my lips, and she rolled her eyes as I called her a crybaby, teasing her despite being one myself. She slapped my arm playfully, and at that moment, I felt like everything was the way it used to be, but it wasn’t, so I was back to reality. Skylar noticed the change in my demeanor, and she sat upright, clearing her throat. “You mentioned a solution earlier at the door. I thought the Moon Goddess wasn’t replying to you any longer? How did you get a solution?” I ran my hand through my hair. “I found a seer. Well, Coral found one. She helped me with the vision.” Skylar raised a brow. “Coral? Really? The same Coral who I don’t trust and absolutely hate found you a seer, and you’re just going to go with it?” Skylar hated Coral the minute I built a temple for the Moon Goddess and she was assigned to me. I always felt it was a rivalry thing, and till now, I haven't
