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
SkylarI felt dizzy and the world spun around me. I barely had time to figure out what was going on or what had happened when I felt myself shift and my knees hit a cold and hard ground. I was supposed to be dead. I was this close to getting my head chopped off. The last thing I remembered was the guard with empty eyes raising a machete while Ramona and Coral watched me with amusement as I was about to be killed. I had accepted my fate because not only was I helpless, it was Grey who had asked for me to be killed but-Light. A light erupted, bright and blinding as it shone through the room, affecting me even more because it appeared so close to me. And now, I was here. A cave. The air was thick with the smell of moss and something I couldn’t quite place my hand on, the air was also moist and shadows were cast on the stone walls by the moonlight that shone into the tiny opening of the cave. A lantern was on but it was not bright and I blinked rapidly as I tried to figure out wh
KaidenI was in shock. Skylar was gone. One minute, she was kneeling in the middle of the hall, bleeding, wounded, her voice hoarse and broke as she begged Grey to tell them to stop. She was screaming, scared and trembling from all the exhaustion. Then in the next minute, as the guard raised the machete to behead her, a bright light shone through the room. And a figure emerged out of nothingness. It was the girl that had saved me- the one that had healed me and found a way to lessen the effect of the poison that had been given to me. The girl was facing away from us so I could see the look on her face. Coral looked surprised and so did Ramona- they had been looking for the girl and she had just appeared in front of them out of nowhere. Before I could figure out why she was here, she placed her hand on Skylar and they both disappeared. Gone. Like they had never been there in the first place. I stared at the empty space- the place she had once been, begging- and my body went ri
RamonaAfter Coral stalked away with a cold unreadable expression on her face after we had argued and I was left standing there confused. I didn’t understand why she looked at me like that. Like she was hurt that I had gone against her and she wanted to hurt me and draw my blood. I didn’t mean to go against her but, her saying I should stop my marriage to Grey was unbelievable. She knew this was what I had wanted for a very long time. I wouldn’t just throw all of it away because I wanted to please. Because Skylar had disappeared. We were in power now- in control, no one was going to win against us and I was sure we would find Skylar in no time. So, I didn’t know what the fuss was about. I dismissed everyone and stormed back to my room, not waiting for Grey to follow me. If he was really under my control, he would know what to do. Getting to my room, I slammed the door shut behind me. The sound of the door closing had echoed through the room and it felt like the walls were comin
CoralThe anger I felt was like none I had ever felt in the past. It burned hot, unrelenting and through my veins as it clawed its way to my chest like a beast that hungry blood, and would do anything to get it.Skylar was gone.Gone.Vanished before my very eyes like smoke in the wind.That girl—the one I had been desperately searching for had appeared out of nowhere, and in an instant, almost like she hadn’t appeared in the hall at all, she had stolen what was mine and had disappeared with it.And now, Skylar that was once wounded, bruised, and broken was no longer in the middle of the hall where I was getting the satisfaction of watching her bleed and beg in pain. My fists curled at my sides and turned away from the crowd towards Ramona, glaring daggers at her.“This is all your fault,” I gritted out through clenched teeth, my voice dangerously low and venomous. Ramona blinked, surprised but quickly regaining herself. She let out a scoff, rolling her eyes as she waved her hand i
ValerieI smiled in my head, satisfied when I saw that Coral was now plotting against Ramona. One thing about who has a thirst for power that wasn’t theirs or people who loved making people suffer was that they didn’t trust anyone- not even theirselves. And now that Coral had asked Ramona to do something not Ramona straight up rejecting and refusing to do it, Coral mind was made up that she was going to be eventually betrayed by Ramona. But my victory was bitter because even as I savored my success, I learned something else- something that made my insides burn.Ramona was planning her engagement to Grey and the thought of it alone made me sick.Even after all she had done, after taking away his free will, after turning him into her puppet- she still wanted more.She wanted to own him completely and I wanted to scream. To fight.To burn everything to the ground before I let her take him.But I couldn’t because I was nothing.An echo. A prisoner. A ghost trapped in my own body, curs
GreyI was drowning.Not in water. Not in blood.In her.I had to put up with Ramona, be with her all the time while acting lovingly. Her presence felt suffocating, filling every part of me, twisting my thoughts, coursing through my mind and making me desire her even if I really didn’t want to. I could still feel her magic coursing through me, strong, unrelenting and taking away my willpower as she forced me to do as she wanted. My body obeyed each and every of her commands- in fact, she didn’t need to tell me to do something before I did it sometimes. The words that came out of my mouth were what she wanted to hear and my hands did as she wanted- whether it was a massage, a hug or a cuddle. And I hated it.I hated every second of this existence.Hated the way my own body betrayed me, the way I knew I was doing something monstrous but couldn’t stop myself.Most of all, I hated what I had done to them.Kaiden. Ansel. Skylar.I hated myself because I had whipped them. Over and over a
CoralI raised my hand to her mouth and held it together, cutting her off with one quick movement of my hand. She widened her eyes in surprise and looked at me like I was crazy, making me drop my hand and roll my eye in response. She pulled me close to her and wrapped her around me for a hug. I stood stiffly in her arms and wondered why she was hugging which spiked up my suspicion. I pulled away from her and eyed her with suspicion. Ramona blinked at me, her expression smug. “Why did you hold me by my mouth?” She asked in amusement. “Now, I’ve lost my train of thoughts and I can’t remember the last thing you said. Plus, you looked tense, that’s why I hugged you, maybe that would help.”“You never stop talking, do you?” I asked as I slightly bent my head to the side, studying her. She let out a small and soft laughter, it was the best sound ever and on normal days, I would have laughed along with her but now? It only made my skin crawl. “I had a vision,” I said, my voice blunt a
CoralI woke up with a gasp. My breathing was unsteady and there was as sweat all over my body, making my hair and cute cling to my body like a second skin. I opened my eyes and tried to separate the couple by things I had seen in my dream to what was in front of me. The room dark, except from the silver of moonlight that shone into the room through the curtains and the windows. I had been twisted uncomfortable while asleep that my bed was now tangled and the pillows on the floor. The blanket I had used to cover myself was all tangled up with my legs and it felt like I was being dragged to my death- a cruel death with unending torture. For a moment, I could still feel myself falling, I could still hear the cruel and malicious sound of Ramona’s laughter as she pushed me off the edge of a cliff, making me fall down to my death. My hands trembled as I curled my fingers around the sheets, gripping the mattress. I let out a small sigh as I forced myself to take slow, steadying breaths.
ScottThey chained me up inside a old and worn out barn- half the roof missing, open to the relentless glare of the sun that was beginning to rise on the horizon.And worst of all…They took my ring.The sunlight ring that I had always worn- the ring that had protected me for years was hurriedly removed from my finger and carelessly tossed aside like it was of no importance. I could already feel the intensity from the sun breaking my skin and I felt hot all over. The leader approached me- the one who had looked me in the eyes and lied to me from the very first day I had started living in their camp. She looked at me with sharp eyes and a malicious smile plastered on her face as she walked closer to me. She stared at me dead in the eyes, her voice loud and sweet but filled with undeniable venomous intent. “Did you really think you could escape and outrun us, Scott?” She asked, her tone degrading. “That’s so stupid of you.”I clenched my jaw, wanting to break free and teach her a le
