MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 123
JASMINES POVAll through the journey back to the pack, Rican and I sat silently, with my gaze fixed outside the window on the trees and bushes that swayed behind us as we drove through the wind.The journey seemed further than when we came, and my eyes began to twirl in weakness. I needed rest. The last time I had a good rest…was days ago. “Check through your window,” Rican called my attention. I sat up slowly, turning to him to know why he asked me to. “There’s a car that should pull up any minute from now,” he said.My eyes drifted to the side mirror, waiting patiently for what he’d said. After a few minutes of waiting, I sighed in exhaustion and fell back to my seat. “There’s no car. Are you expecting someone?”Right after my question, just as my eyes were about to leave the side mirror, I saw a red car take the turn that led directly into the path that we were on. My body instinctively left the chair again, closing in on the mirror and I squinted for a better view. “A red ca

JASMINES POVI pushed harder, my muscles burning as I raced after her. The girl was fast, but I was faster. My wolf surged beneath my skin, my senses sharpening as I closed the distance between us. She veered into a narrow alley behind the diner, her breaths ragged, her steps desperate.My legs traveled faster than I thought I could, sending me through the wind with speed. She took a bend, and I swerved instantly, almost grabbing her arm.“I’m not going to hurt you!” I yelled, hoping that was enough to make her stop running. But she continued moving, her speed doubling as I dent her wolf taking form. I had to stop her before she morphed. With a swing, I lunged at her, pulling her arm just as she tried to dart around a dumpster and dragging her toward me. She yelped, struggling, but I tightened my grip.“Let me go!” she gasped, her wide eyes filled with panic.I gave her a moment to struggle all she could, waiting for the strength in her to die with my grip. “Not until you tell me w

JASMINES POVI recognized that voice after a few seconds of thinking. Alyssa. A friend of Caine? Yes. Close to Alpha Morgan? I had no idea. “The more time you waste, the more you risk yourself getting caught,” she said, closing the door that she opened earlier to walk out. With a deep breath, I crept my way out of the table, adjusting my gown as I presented myself before her. A smile tore across her face, her legs striding until she was standing before me. “I’ve missed your presence in the fields,” she said, surprisingly opening her arms to pull me into a hug. I fell into her arms, my fear leaving my body in the form of tears. Her hands snaked around me, pulling me tightly like she knew that I needed that hug, the comfort. “You’re risking a lot being here,” she said, holding my arms and pulling me away from her. I didn’t want to let go, at the same time, I didn’t want to make it feel weird. “Why did you come back when the alpha hasn’t given a decree over your family's return?” S

JASMINES POVTwo minutes of standing and staring at each other without saying a word. I swallowed, hoping I didn’t overstep by involving the name of the Luna. People respected Luna Lilian. They always saw her as a respectful and collected Luna, the same way I saw her before I left the pack.But after I discovered her friendship with Caine’s mother and how Caine’s mother died, then she became Luna all of a sudden, I couldn’t help the new feeling of fear that grew inside me. “Repeat what you just said,” Alyssa said. I tried to look away from her eyes, but they bulged even wider, keeping my eyes trapped in them for as long as I could remember. My heart pounded in my chest, and my head spun with several options.“I said…that Luna Lilian…might just be another threat,” I repeated, and the shock in her face dropped for a second. Probably because she heard me before. “What kind of threat?” Before I could say a word, distinct voices trailing up the stairs in front of the alpha’s room interr

JASMINES POV “Go!” Alyssa pulled the window. I squeezed myself through the space and clung onto the window seal, my eyes measuring the distance between me and the floor. “When you get out there, mix with the crowd, don’t get seen. I’ll meet you at the bar,” she said. I nodded, unable to speak with the way my muscles ached. My fingers were already shaking, my mind reeling with several thoughts. “Jump,” I pushed myself in my head. For some reasons. I was doubtful about landing safely. “What are you waiting for?” Alyssa questioned. The bang on the door increased, sending a bang to my chest. “Jump!” She urged.With a heavy breath, I let myself fall.The wind rushed past me as I plummeted toward the ground. My stomach twisted, and for a brief moment, fear gripped me, but I forced my body to relax, bracing for impact.I hit the ground with a thud, my legs buckling under me. Pain shot through my knees, but I bit my lip to keep from crying out. There was no time. The sound of shouting fro

JASMINES POVAlyssa and I sat in silence for the next couple of seconds, while my eyes and brain analyzed the picture. Somehow, it was beginning to make sense. “Where is this?” I asked. “Just behind the alpha mansion,” she replied. “How come I haven’t seen it,” I blurted, turning the phone to get a full view. The waiter brought out water, and I was the first to gulp it down. I needed it, dirly.“It’s been locked for years. No one else from the alpha family had died ever since Caine lost his mother. So there has been no use for it,” she said. I passed the phone back to her, leaning back into the chair. “So, what now?” Alyssa asked, watching me closely.I exhaled, my fingers tracing the rim of the glass. “If Bryan’s grave is in the royal cemetery, then who the hell have we been dealing with all this time?”Alyssa’s brows furrowed. “You think it’s a cover-up?”I nodded. “It has to be. The timeline doesn’t add up. If Bryan was buried all those years ago, then the person claiming to

JASMINES POVSlipping through the first set of guards at the gate wasn’t the hard part. It was getting past the tons of guards racing towards the gate. They came from different angles, surrounding us like we were at the center of the pack. “What do we do now?” I asked, scanning other parts of the pack. Every path leading away from the center had guards racing out of it. My heart pounded against my ribs. The riot outside was growing wilder, fueled by the rumors we’d spread and the torch I’d thrown. Smoke and shouts filled the air as more guards rushed to the gates.“This way,” Alyssa pulled my hand. We raced towards the fountain, and before I could say anything, she pushed me in. I caught my breath way before my lungs got filled with water. Alyssa landed beside me, her hand wrapping around mine as she swam towards the brick walls. “Why did you do that?” I gasped for air the moment our heads pulled up from the water. “It was our only choice,” she breathed, leaning against the wall.

JASMINES POV Luna Lilian moved cautiously, her long cloak trailing behind her as she approached another grave. The dim torchlight barely illuminated her features, but I could still make out the tension in her stance, the way her shoulders stiffened when she arrived at her destination. Alyssa gripped my wrist, her nails digging into my skin as we held our breath. Neither of us dared to move. Lilian knelt beside the grave, brushing her fingers over the stone before sighing deeply. Her head tilted slightly as if listening for something in the night air. Then, she whispered, “It wasn’t supposed to come to this.” Alyssa and I exchanged glances, one with so many unspoken questions. My heart raced faster than earlier, and I could even hear the beating of Alyssa’s heart. Lilian stood up, flicking the torch twice. My eyes darted towards the direction of her focus, sticking to that spot like I was waiting for someone too. “I think she’s expecting someone,” I muttered, and Alyssa’s han

MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 162
JASMINES POVI stood before the mirror, staring at my reflection. Time had passed since the last servant came to inform us that the car was waiting. I’d completely lost myself in my reflection. The woman staring back at me was different. Someone I’d long admired to be. I let out a sigh, taking the veil off my face. “Are we ready?” I asked Alyssa who was still gathering a few things from her bag. “Yes…just these little things I have to get them we’ll move,’ he said.I didn’t mind, because I felt like I had all the time in the world. I was willing to stand before the mirror, simply staring at myself and the baby bump that was evident from the white gown I had on. Two knocks landed on the door, and it creaked open. From the mirror, I saw my mother. “Mum,” I called under my breath. She told me that she wasn’t going to make it because she was still taking care of her husband. Seeing her here sent chills down my spine. I strode hurriedly across the room, but she covered more space tha
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 161
JASMINES POVI walked into the cemetery where Lucy’s body was buried. Carrying my flowers in one hand and holding Caine in the other. It was a month after her death, and as much as I tried to deny it, I could feel the void in my heart. She occupied somewhere in my heart, despite the betrayal and hatred, and I just couldn’t bring myself to deny that fact. Caine wasn’t in support of my going to visit the cemetery, but I insisted. I had to remind him of Lucy’s parents whom they locked up and weren’t able to pay their daughter a visit at her grave, nor did they have a chance to see them lower her into the ground. She was a villain, yes—but also a human being. “I’ll wait out here,” Caine said. I didn’t argue. We disconnected our hands, and he kissed me before letting me off. Caine was still a work in progress. He was taking on a new personality, one that was completely in contrast to who he was before the accident. His memories were not completely back, but each day, with my presenc
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 160
CAINES POVThe next time I woke up, I couldn’t move my hands or legs. I scanned the room area after getting a clearer vision. The smell of wolf’s bane was strong in the air, and that explained why I felt weak. “You’re finally up, welcome to the party,” Lucy drew my attention to her. She was crouched beside Jasmine, and something about that position upset my wolf. He wanted to defend Jasmine, to stand up for her. But our strength was sealed. “Get away from her. Who are you?” I gritted.“It’s so sad that it had to be your memory that was lost. A part of me wished you died that night,” she blurted. “What?” I asked. Then I understood what she was talking about. My accident. “That girl…Elara right?” She chuckled. “She was this close to figuring out. If only she’d been smart,”I groaned, pulling against my restraints. “You killed her!” I yelled. But only a sinister smile played on her face as she moved from Jasmine to me. “You can’t do anything, Caine, not even now. You couldn’t even

CAINES POVThe call dropped.I yanked the phone from my ear, staring at the screen as static hummed in my ears. The connection had been lost.Jasmine’s voice still rang in my head, breathless and desperate.I’m pregnant—with your child.I shot up from my chair so fast it clattered against the floor. My wolf was raging beneath my skin, demanding action, demanding I find her.Just then, a car drove in. I moved to the window to see who it was. Lucy. My eyes drifted to the clock, and it was a few minutes past twelve. The sky was completely dark, and the moon was hanging with a moonlight under the cloud. “She sounded scared…and urgent…” I thought. All of a sudden, my wolf was full of rage. The fragment of memory that I had tried to remember felt like it was fighting its way up. But distractions. Lucy was coming up, and I had to confirm my suspicions. I reached for my phone and sent a text to Beta Joseph, telling him to track my phone and find me if anything happened. I sent the same
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 158
JASMINE’S POVThe moment the door shut behind them, I let out a shaky breath, my body sagging against the chair. My arms ached from the restraints, my head pounding from exhaustion, but none of it compared to the sharp pain radiating through my stomach. The warmth of my blood soaked into my dress was a terrifying reminder of just how much danger I was in.I glanced at the table where Lucy had tossed her phone. It was my only chance.My eyes drifted back to the door after I heard a sound. I thought they were coming back, so I curled back into my tears. After a few seconds of waiting, and no one came through the door, I let out a heavy sigh, staring at the phone. Desperation fueled me as I forced my body forward. I fell from the chair and crashed my face on the floor. Shock coursed through my face, sending my head and my brain pulsing with the taste of blood that circulated in my mouth. I ignored the pain, keeping my eyes focused on the phone that lay on the table. I started crawlin
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 157
LUCY'S POVI slammed the brakes, drifting the car out of the garage. I saw Caine standing at the edge of the hallway through the rear mirror. His gaze was fixed on the car, his body still as I drove off. I knew he was getting suspicious, and it was only a matter of time before he came searching or digging for answers. I drove into the silence that filled the night, a clear contrast to the storm of thoughts that raged in my mind. I’d asked for dinner with them because I started noticing the low murmuring when I wasn’t looking. They were getting suspicious, questioning my whereabouts and my lateness to the events and important meetings. I also noticed how distant I had become due to the plans Bryan had and the hitches we experienced over the month. Recently, a few days back or so, Adrian went on a hunting spree, killing tons of humans and werewolves. According to my parents, he was facing the likelihood of the breakout of another disease all because he hadn’t found someone who was
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 156
CAINE’S POVThe silence that filled the room was suffocating. The way all eyes drifted to me, I knew I shouldn’t have uttered those words. I took a little drift away from Lucy’s stare, traveling my eyes around the room. The eyes of others carried a heavy weight, like a secret, lurking behind them. I made sure I observed all before returning my gaze to Lucy. Unlike others, and unlike the first time the question was asked, she was smiling. What changed?Wasn’t she curious to know what changed?”“Go on, Caine. Why don’t you tell us? Are we supposed to be expecting someone else,” she asked again. The rest returned to their meal, the forks clanging softly against their plates. Even their eyes were buried into their plates, and it felt like they were expecting some kind of outburst of something—a quarrel perhaps. “Are you okay mate?” Harper nudged me, Snapping me out of my zone. I forced a smile, nodding hurriedly.“Of course. I just didn’t spot Joanne in time. My sight I guess.” lie
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 155
JASMINES POVThe light shuffling of feet and the muffled voices stirred me up from my sleep. Standing at the edge of the room Bryan, talking with Adrian. They were discussing in lie tones, but Bryan seemed to be angrier. “You led them here!” He yelled, pushing Adrian. For reasons best known to Adrian, he wasn’t getting angry just like Bryan. He maintained his cool, taking the blows and the blame. “Deal with it,” Bryan snapped. “It’s already been dealt with,” Adrian said finally. My vision blurred for a few seconds, and I blinked several times to get a clearer view. Silence fell in the room after Adrain spoke, safe for Bryan’s heavy breathing. “You what?”“They’ve been dealt with. And Lucy drove off with their bodies to bury them somewhere far,” he explained. With the I saw things, Bryan wasn’t in support of that. He took two steps forward, and the third step placed him directly in front of Adrian.“You killed the cops?” My breath hitched after hearing what the offense was.
MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES. CHAPTER 154
CAINES POVIt was the second month since the arrest of Lilian. My father has been silent on the progress being made by my uncle and the rest of the investigation team—that’s if progress was being made. On the other hand, Natasha has been nothing but helpful. For reasons best known to her, she only let me discuss things I’d planned for and my father eventually left. She stood in as my therapist. On the other hand, Lucy is awkwardly absent from the house. She leaves so early and comes back really late at night. When I asked, she attributed the return of her parents and her brother whom the police department was after. I walked out of bed, moved to the mirror, and ran my fingers through the bandage on my head. Two months had come, and gone, yet I still couldn’t get an answer to the most bothersome question in my mind.Why Jasmine?A few days ago, I asked my father. I wanted to know why she was the only name that kept recurring in my head. I noticed the way he tried to avoid the qu
