SLOANE…..I went to look into his hidden room to see if he had any bed there. But I was shocked when the door opened and the sight before me took my breath away. There were lots of art pieces hanging on the wall.I walked inside the room and explored it with amazement. I was watching every piece of his art with adoration. I didn't know my husband was an artist.My brows frowned when I spotted a canvas covered in a cloak. Curiosity got the better of me and I approached it. I swallowed, reaching out to grab the cloak. I didn't know why, but my pulse quickened. My grip on the cloak tightened.‘What kind of masterpiece Allan is trying to hide?’ After a deep breath, I pulled the cloak away, causing it to drop onto the ground.Then my eyes widened.My heart seemed to stop.I was rooted to the ground with my eyes glued to the unbelievable sight before me. It was my picture holding a butterfly in my hand, standing before the waterfall. It was the same place I went last year. But how…..Was he
EZRA…..“Viviana has already moved on in her life, you better also moved on in your life. This Pack needs a Luna. You know better than me. Then why are you not doing anything? You should find a chosen Mate for you now.” Beta Raden advised me while sitting next to me while having his drink.“I only loved one person in my life and it is Viviana. She is my only love. I can't give this place to anyone else. I know it's being difficult for you and your Mate to handle the pack matters. Don't worry, I will ask Elder Martha to take over Luna's duty temporarily until I come up with a solution.” Raden pressed his lips together and shook his head disappointedly.“What's the point of hugging the past forever? She loved you like crazy, yet she moved on and you can't move on from her when I never saw you express your love for her.” I glared at him for his words but he just ignored me. Because he knew he was right. But he can't just say it on my face. I admit I never express my emotions before her
VIVIANA…..I haven't talked to Riley after he told me not to get involved in giving punishment to the criminals. He's the Alpha, he will take care of these things. How can he say that? I didn't sleep with him last night. I stayed with the kids. The next morning I was attending my patients when Sloane came running to me.“Sister, Miss Huang’s daughter called and told me that her mother vomited blood. You should go and check her.” She looked terrified.“Calm down, Sloane. It's absolutely fine. It's a sign of recovery. Tell her daughter not to get worried and not to stop giving her the medicines on time. I will go and check on her in the afternoon.” Sloane nodded her head and walked out of the cabin.It took three hours to attend the patients. When I was free I checked the watch on my wrist and saw that it was almost time, when the kids' school will be over. Sloane had gone to pick them up. I went to the kitchen to check if their favorite dishes were ready or not and the chef informed me
RILEY…..SIX YEARS AGO…..“That girl looks familiar to me?” I asked Beta Ruoyun, staring at the waitress who was serving Crystal a drink.“She’s the same girl who saved old Madam weeks ago.” He said and I rolled my eyes at him.“I remember this. But I think I have seen her before.” I pointed out.“Oh, She's Alpha Ezra’s Mate. But you can say, Ex Mate. He divorced her.” I remember her now. I have seen her picture in his book when we were in college. And she was the same girl for whom Ezra rejected my sister’s proposal and she ended up taking her life for not being able to get him in her life.If she didn't make me promise her to not hurt Ezra then he would be dead by now. My sister died because of him. She meant the world to me. But now she's not with me then it's because of him.I don't understand why he divorced her when he loves her crazily. “I want information on why he divorced her. Get the information as soon as possible.” Saying that I walked out of the club after giving a last
VIVIANA…..“Will you explain what Allan was saying?” I asked Riley while my body was shaking in anger. Riley’s shoulder tensed up and I saw him glaring at Allan.“I don't think you will say anything to me.” Saying that, I turned to Allan for an answer.“Since you say that, I believe you can explain everything better.” I felt a lump in my throat and I felt my eyes burning with tears.“Vivi, I was talking nonsense….” I gave him a death glare.“You have my swear, tell me the truth. If you consider me as your sister from heart then you will tell me the truth.” My voice cracked at the end due to holding back my tears.Allan looked troubled, he looked at Riley then looked back at me. “Allan, please.” My vision got blurry because of the unshed tears in my eyes.“Brother Riley didn't marry you cause he loved you. He wanted to avenge our sister's death.” Tears rolled down from my eyes and I looked at Riley who was standing before me with his head hanging low. “Our Sister loved Ezra. But he wa
ALLAN…..It was Brother Riley and Viviana’s six year marriage anniversary. So Viviana told me to bring Sloane a dress for tonight's party. When I asked her to go to the shopping mall she said she was busy. And she asked me to buy one for her. I told her what if she doesn't like the dress I choose for her. Because I had no idea about girl’s dresses. I have never bought any girl a dress. Not even for my sister. Then how was I supposed to buy one for her? But she told me she's not a picky person. She'll be okay with my choice. Without having any other choice I had to buy a dress for her.It was a yellow gown. When I laid my eyes on it, it captured my attention and I imagined her in this dress. And Goddess, she was looking breathtakingly gorgeous in that dress. So I bought it for her. I hope she liked my choice. As we weren't a real couple, I knocked on the door before entering my room.“Sloane,” I called for her but she wasn't in the room. But the sound of water from the adjoining bathro
SLOANE …..I was shocked at the sudden movement. Allan’s lips brushed against mine. They felt so soft and delicate, and his mouth smelled like dark chocolate. My eyes fluttered shut as our lips molded against mine in heart clenching passion. He bit my lower lip gently as he tried to part them and I did, allowing him to taste every single part of me.My hands moved up to tangle in the dark strands of his hair as he kissed me fervently. His tongue darted out, trailing over my lips with deep desire, building up a moan inside me. I continued raking my fingers through his soft curls as he deepened the kiss, pressing me closer. He slowly pulled away allowing enough space for us to breathe. I looked into his dark black eyes to see them craving with desire. His hand trailed behind my back to my forehead. The kiss lingered longer than usual, igniting a lustful passion within me.“Get ready for the party. I will be busy down in the hallroom to make sure the arrangements are alright. You take y
ALLAN…..“Have you lost your Mind, Nicole?” I pushed her away as soon as possible before Sloane misunderstood me. But I think it was too late. Because I saw her walk away from there.“What was that, Nicole? Why did you do this?” I yelled at her and she smiled maliciously at me.“My plan worked. I wanted to create a misunderstanding between you two and see, the same thing happened.” She laughed, throwing her head back. She had been behind me for a long time when I already told her that I'm not interested in her. But she's just persistent like my sister. I don't hurt her with my words because I'm afraid she might pull the same act as my sister. I can't take it anymore.“You are so annoying, Nicole. I'm already a married man. Forget about me and move on.” I tried to put some sense into her brain. But she just rolled her eyes at me.“She will leave you, Allan. If she doesn't then I will make her. And you know I can.” She threatened me openly. So bold of her.I didn't want to create any
Today the Allister family's young siblings were going to attend the birthday banquet of the Prince of Alpha King. Vasili dragged Emrys with him as he was his future Beta. They weren't best friends, but friends. Emrys always avoided such gatherings.Everyone was waiting for Josephine who was getting ready in her room. Viviana, Rachel, Jennifer and Edith were in her room to make her ready. As she sucked at doing makeup. “Done. Now have a look into the mirror and tell me, are you satisfied with your look?” Viviana asked her beloved daughter who opened her eyes with fear but she was stunned to see the person standing before her.She was looking gorgeous and her face was flawless. She was looking like a true princess today. “Awe! Josie is looking like a Princess today.” Jay exclaimed happily admiring her elder sister.“Is it really me, Mom? I can't believe my eyes.” Josephine exclaimed and Rachel and Viviana laughed at her.“Our Josie is so beautiful, of course it's you. Now go downstairs
JOSEPHINE……“You are looking pretty today, Edith.” Emrys complimented his sister patting her head.“Thank you brother.” She responded sweetly a x I had to take a step back to make some distance between him and me, because his scentl was affecting me. It was quite distracting.“Edith, I think we should go with the driver instead. Let's send your brother back?” She looked confused at me.“Why, Josie?” She asked innocently and I looked at Edith who was also looking confused as his sister.“Someone is looking deadly handsome today, I'm afraid someone might kidnap your brother.” Emrys face turned red and he looked away from me to hide his face from me and Edith giggled beside me.“Well, you are right though. What can I do when my brother is born handsome? Just be careful, what if you might fall for him. Don't forget he's famous as a heartbreaker.” I watched Emrys glared at his sister but she just ignored him.“Will you both stop please. You both are making me cringe.” He scolded us and wen
EX-MATE-71JOSEPHINE…..“Thank you Josephine. Because of you my relationship with my sister got better. The misunderstanding between us is now over. We are on good terms now. All this has been possible because of you. If you need my help in future just tell me, I will be there for you.”I was genuinely happy for him and seeing a smile on his face was a surprise for me. He looks nice with a smile.“Sure. By the way, keep smiling like you. You look more charming with that smile on your face.” Hearing me he immediately wiped off his smile, and I gave him a blank look, shaking my head. This guy will never change.“Why don't you shift here too? It will help you to grow your relationship with your sister strong. Spend time with her as much as possible. Be a responsible brother to her. And stop being a jerk.” He smiled looking away from me.“I will talk to Dad and move in here. I have to go now.” Emrys was about to walk away but I stopped him.“I was thinking of taking Edith on shopping. I w
JOSEPHINE…..“How are you feeling now?” I asked Edith when she woke up.“Much better. Well thank you for saving me.” She expressed her gratitude towards me by holding my hands.“Don't thank me. You are a little sister to me. I'm glad that I was there at the right time. But who tied you up there?” I asked her and she bit her lower lip looking down.“They are Emrys's enemies. They couldn't defeat my brother so they targeted me to bully me.” She said in a low tone.“Why didn't you tell your brother about this? It wasn't the first time. The doctor said she spotted many bruises, burning marks and bluish marks on your body. If you couldn't tell this to your brother, at least you should have shared it with your mother. She was so broken when she heard about your condition.” Tears rolled down from her eyes. Her lips trembled when she spoke.“I once told my brother about them bullying me then he beat them very badly. Then they locked up in a room and…..” She sobbed, her body was shaking. She w
JOSEPHINE…..Dad told me to train every morning to become strong and it was needed to train my wolf too. Uncle Daniel was my trainer. And fuck, he’s a tough trainer. But because of him my fighting skill has improved and I have become stronger than before.I have a solo match against the king of assholes, Emrys. He thinks so highly of himself when he will get his ass beaten off by me then he will understand with whom he had messed with. He was just the son of a beta but has the gut to mess with the daughter of his Alpha. He needs to learn a lesson. I wanted to go for a run before going back home. I transformed into my wolf and went for a run into the woods. When I reached the middle of the woods I heard a crying sound coming from a distance. So I followed the source of the voice and stopped when I saw a group of rogues surrounding a girl tied up to a tree.I let out a powerful howl to divert their attention to me. When they heard my howl they all left her and started walking forward a
JOSEPHINE…..“Wow, our school is so cool.” My happiness had no bound stepping inside the school. I was homeschooled so, I never have been in school before. I was grinning from ear to ear looking around the school and gge students who were passing by me going to their class room.“We will lead you to your classroom. I hope you make friends there.” Vasili patted my head and I smiled at him.“Let's see. Let me go to my class first. The way all the girls of this school ogling at my brothers I can’t stand it anymore.” I rolled my eyes in annoyance.“What can we do, little sister? We are born handsome, girls will ogle at us. We can't tell them not to ogle at us, they will feel hurt.” Kian’s words made me cringe.“Are we in the same class?” I asked and they shook their heads.“No, you are in grade nine. Dad thinks you are not ready to study in tenth grade. But don't worry, we will help you with your studies.” Kian stated.“I will give you my notes, it will help you a lot.” Vasili was always
“Josie.” Josephine was rooted to her place when she heard a familiar voice. She looked at the source of the voice and her eyes went wide when she saw him standing before her with a charming smile on his face. The same smile she used to die at a time. Before Josephine could react he ran to her and hugged her in front of everyone, taking her aback. “I missed you so much, Josie.” She was still in shock that she couldn't utter a word.“Aries!” He pulled away from her and grinned looking at her.“Finally, I found you. I thought I lost you forever when that incident happened in Alpha Jacob's pack and Alpha Damon took you as hostage. When my Mom was showing me last night's picture then I saw you there. They told me you are Alpha Ezra's daughter. I couldn't wait any longer and left for the Blood Moon pack to meet you. I can't believe I'm seeing you in front of me.” Aries was talking to Josephine holding her by her shoulder. Tears were twinkling in his eyes.“Excuse me, please keep some dist
“I, Josephine Allister, daughter of Alpha Ezra Allister, reject Alpha Damon Salvatore as my Mate.” His eyes went wide in shock when the realization hit him.“If you are truly sorry for what you did to me, you will accept the rejection and end the meaningless bond between us and free me.” Josephine’s voice was firm and confident but she was hurt from inside.Alpha Damon stared into her eyes for some good moment before opening his mouth. “I, Damon Salvatore, Alpha of Dark Wood Pack, accept your rejection.” The moment he accepted the rejection he collapsed on the floor clutching his heart. He didn't expect the rejection to hit him like that. He felt breathless.Josephine was standing in a distance clutching her heart in pain but his pain was ten times much worse than her. Maybe, the Moon Goddess was punishing him for toying with an innocent girl’s heart.“Stop acting like a weak wolf. Get out of my room right now. I don't want to see you around me.” Josephine yelled at him as she couldn
Josephine was nervous thinking how to take Damon away without noticing them to get done with the rejection. So she decided to do this another time. She didn't want to let her family know that Alpha Damon was Mate. She wanted to started her life with a fresh start so she decided to reject Alpha Damon and live her life without any past nuisance.Alpha Damon was waiting for Luna Samantha to come back after cleaning her dress so he can go and meet Alpha Ezra's daughter. He was talking to an Alpha who spoke looking at Josephine.“Alpha Ezra's daughter is so beautiful. I wish she was a little bit older, then I could marry her. But unfortunately she's just sixteen. Why am I so unlucky? Just look at the girl, it seemed she just descended from heaven.” That Alpha couldn't take his eyes off Josephine. He was unmated but Josephine was younger for him and Alpha Ezra would never marry off his daughter to a man who was twelve years older than her.“Stop looking at her like that. You are looking li
