JASMINES POV

Slipping 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.

  • MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES.   CHAPTER 130

    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

    JASMINES POV“You’re not paying attention to me!” Alyssa ran after me. She caught up with me right before I could take the door handle and spun me around. “You are taking a big risk,”“I never complained. I am not complaining neither will I ever complain. Don’t you understand? Caine is my mate!”“And you think I don’t know that?” She fired, her voice making me mute. Goosebumps spread across my skin, sending a cold chill down my spine as we glared defiantly into each other's eyes. She wasn’t going to let me go. I could see it in her eyes, so I decided to play along until I got my chance. “What do you want me to do?” I broke down. My head fell into her arms, and she caressed my hair gently. “I don’t know who else to run to,” unintended tears streamed down my eyes. This was the perfect timing, so I let them flow freely. “I am here, you have me,”“They took Rican. They took Caine. Now they want to take the rest of my world. I don’t want my child growing around strangers,” more tears str

    JASMINES POVThe man’s pulse spiked under my grip. His scent reeked of fear, and I knew I had him.“I-I told you, he’s not here,” he stammered, but his eyes flickered toward the end of the hallway, betraying him.I stepped closer, my fingers tightening. “I don’t have time for games,” I said, lowering my voice to a dangerous whisper. “Either you take me to him, or I make enough noise to have every wolf in this town swarming in here.”I let go of his hand after I noticed the people sitting around taking an interest in what was going on. “I’m sorry,” I faked an apology, taking a deep breath in. The hospital returned to silence, and my eyes scanned the rest of them. With a heavy breath, I stepped away from the counter. “Leave now, before the security gets here.” He warned. “Please,” I muttered, swallowing the lump in my throat. “I just want to see him, even if it’s for a second. He’s my mate,” Guilt flickered in his eyes, and I thought I’d bought his sympathy. Just then, the security

    CAINES POVMy eyes fluttered open, and for the first few seconds, all I could see was red light. It felt like the blood cells in my body had gathered in my eyes, blinding my sight.With time, my vision began to clear, and the white light above me peered into my eyes. The metallic scent of blood and the beeping of the heart monitors were the only sounds in the room. My hands felt restrained, strapped in some kind of manner that I couldn’t explain until I got a clearer vision. “Where am I?” I blurted, adjusting on the bed. The room was empty, quiet, and safe for the light footsteps of people outside the room. I sat up, staring at my hands to know why they were heavy.Three needles were attached to a hand, trailing up to the drip that stood by my side. A fucking hospital. I cursed under my breath, wondering how many more times I had to visit this place. Pain shot through the back of my head, shutting my eyes instinctively. “Ouuw,” I groaned, rubbing the back of my head. A sharp s

    CAINES POV“My dad?” I asked, squinting to see through the dark hallway as a figure emerged. My father walked into the light of the moon, holding a flower in his hand. “I was asked to give you these,” he extended his hands. I glanced at Lucy, who nodded at me to accept them. They smelled nice. “Who sent them?”“Your mother… stepmother, he corrected. I was told that I had a stepmother and that she was kind, and everything sweet. But whenever I had those episodes when fragments of my memories flashed across my mind, the opposite was the case. I couldn’t even define what relationship existed between us, but I knew she’d been in my life before. I passed the flower to Lucy and my eyes drifted back to my father who was studying my body. “I can see you’re doing better. When do you intend to return to the pack?”“He’s not completely fine now,” Lucy objected, and I noticed my father's glare strike her instantly. I pulled her to my side calmly, more like I was pulling her into my defense.

    CAINES POV“My memory?” I repeated, flicking my eyes between them. “How do you intend to control my mind?” “That has been settled already. We have the help of the Seeker wolves. They can dive into your mind and you’ll lead them…”“A head dive? Since when did we start trusting the seeker wolves? Lucy said we can’t trust seekers like Jasmine,”“Lucy?” My father cut in. He stole a glance at the door to confirm no one was there. “Lucy said this, Lucy said that when will you stop listening to what Lucy had to say and start listening to your family?” He snapped. I tensed at his words, my fingers curling into fists at my sides.“Lucy has never given me a reason not to trust her,” I shot back, my voice low but firm. “She warned me about Jasmine, and now you’re telling me to let a Seeker wolf dive into my mind? Do you even hear yourself?”My father’s jaw tightened, his eyes flashing with frustration. “You think you know everything, Davian. But you don’t. You’re so caught up in your own damn

    CAINES POVWe went into the office, and the first part was merely arranged with tables and chairs. My uncle made a call, and in the next minute, a nurse was at the door with us. She was allowed to go in, while I stood behind watching. Her hands ran across the walls, going frame by grave until she got to a frame with just black and blue colors. Slowly, she brought the frame down, took out a key, and inserted it into the wall. I heard a click in the wall, accompanied by the whining and clunking of metals together until something shifted. I checked every corner of the wall, but there was no sign of a shift or a change in its position. “It didn’t work?” I asked, turning to my father. The nurse turned around and moved to the opposite side of the office, where the shelves were. “I’ll need little help,” she asked. Natasha joined her, and together, they pushed the shelf aside, revealing a small brown door. “You all can go in there and stay as long as you want. No one up here will be ab

    CAINES POV I felt a final pain shoot through my head, and suddenly, it all vanished. The pain stopped, the struggle stopped, and the film was gone the next time I opened my eyes. Instead, I stood in a forest, thick mist curling around my feet. The scent of rain clung to the air. Moonlight flickered through the trees, casting jagged shadows. I turned, and there she was. Elara. “Is this my mind?” I asked, but I didn’t hear my voice. “Elara,” I called, but still nothing. I could only hear it in my head. She turned to face me, took my hand, and pulled me close enough until I could feel her skin against mine. Something in the atmosphere shifted, and I could hear my breaths loud and clear. So I tried again. “Elara,” “I can hear you now,” she replied. “This is your mind,” she added, and I followed her eyes, scanning the environment. “Since it’s yours, you should be able to recall what night this was,” she turned back to me. I studied the forest, my mind cracking with so many t

    CAINES POV“Caine, that’s my wife you’re accusing,” my father pulled me back and whispered into my ear through his teeth. I shrugged him off and took steps further, but my uncle stepped in the way.“Caine, what’s come over you?” He asked with a low voice. “This is your wedding. What do you think you’re doing?” “She’s a traitor.” “Stop it!” My father yelled.The peace they were trying to maintain crumbled, and I had deadly eyes staring into mine. He walked closer to me, his eyes wandering in mine like he was trying to know what gave me the audacity to point an accusatory finger at his wife.“What is this all about, Huh? Because you do not want to get married? Is that why you have chosen to destroy that of your parents?”“If you think I’m lying…” I said before taking my gaze away from him and fixing it on Lilian. “Ask her how long she has known my mother,” “Your mother died years before I met Lilian,”“A year, you mean? And that means you're not denying the fact that she knew Mother

    CAINES POVI stood before the grand mirror in my chamber, my reflection staring back at me, hollow-eyed and unrecognizable. The blue ceremonial robes draped over my shoulders felt heavy, suffocating, as if they carried the weight of every choice I hadn’t made for myself. The deep blue fabric was adorned with intricate silver embroidery, the symbol of my family stitched proudly into the chest. A reminder of the duty I could never escape. The servant attached the last piece of gold ring to my finger and took a few steps away from the mirror. “All set,” he bowed. Today, as per tradition of the house of Creeks, my marriage was to be held in the old traditional ways. Given the kind of line we descended from, our marriage process usually involved various types of rites. First, we would go to the river to get bathed under the moonlight. Also, there was the one of getting the head of an antler from the woods.A third was also mentioned to me, which involved the Sheet's reveal. It was con

    CAINES POVDistant murmurings filled my ears as I stirred awake. My eyes fluttered as they received the rays from the white light hanging above my head. For the first few seconds, I was blinded by the light. After what felt like minutes of waiting, the light got dim, giving me a chance to take a view of my environment.“He’s waking up,” a voice said. It sounded muffled like he was speaking to me or someone else with water in his mouth. I tried to turn my head towards the direction of the sound, but a sharp pain shot through my head.“Ouch!” I winced, reaching to hold my head. The pain seared through, touching every nerve as it sent cold signals down the rest of my body. “Easy son,” my father's voice said. His footsteps rang in my ear like they were stepping on glass placed beside my ear, and I was forced to close both ears with my palms until I felt his hand on my neck. “You’re fine. You’re with family,” he said. Slowly, I let go of my ears and turned to him. He was still standing

    LUCY'S POVBryan was serious about leaving Jasmine in the trunk till the following morning. He acted like we didn’t come with anyone else, all his attention focused on Liz. Her body had gone cold, and he was massaging it with a warm towel. I sat across the sitting room, watching him while Adrian got himself engaged in a discussion with some adults outside, sitting around a fire and passing bottles of drinks. “Is it always this quiet?” I asked, taking the first step to speak since I realized he was bent on saying nothing until Liz woke up. “Not always,” he replied. “Liz bore some type of light. Her absence must have dimmed that light. The reason why most of the women have refused to settle until they see her,” he said. A few hours after Adrian compelled the crowd that gathered in front of the house, some women stopped by again to see Liz. I was the one who spoke to them, giving an excuse that she would be back from her evening walk. Two more hours passed since I did that, and they

    BRYANS POV“Liz, please.” I followed her behind, keeping up with her quick strides as she made her way back to the house. “It’s just going to be for a few days,”“A few days?” she turned to me. “Those…few days…as you call it, is enough to bring this little home down. You and I know how much effort we put into securing this place, into the protection of this land. Yet you want to sweep it under the bus all because of what?” She snapped.I sighed, seeing that this was already a lost argument. In our territory, we had no alpha or king. But we had people recognized for their strength and influence. My father was one of them, and that made him one of the most respected people in the rogue lands. Marrying Elizabeth, and her neutral ability to fight a warrior that she is, bestowed that same respect on her. Her say was final, and if she refused to grant me my request, no one else would. I glanced at Lucy who was watching from a distance, then back at Liz. “This one time, Liz. I promise to

    BRYANS POVI parked the car at the front of the house, leaning back into the chair as I pulled the keys out. “This is my home,” I answered Lucy. She’d been curious ever since we headed out, probably because I chose not to handle this her way.Funny enough, this was her first being here despite how many years of dating. I kept this part of my family away from the world due to the amount of love I had for them. We were, however, seen as rogues. Perhaps that’s who we are. Lucy has always known that I belong to a rogue pack. She just didn’t know what pack it was. Seeing the shock on her face only made me more excited.“I thought you said your home was taken away from you? she asked, leaning forward to get a proper view of the people moving from place to place ahead of us.“I did say that. But you should have understood what home I was talking about,” I told her. My first home, which I referred to as the home I never met, was the Creeks mansion.I grew up in the outskirts of the city,

  • MY SECRET MATE: LOST MEMORIES.   CHAPTER 144

    LUCY’S POVI walked out from where I hurled myself into for shelter, bridging the sweat off my hair. The place was in a mess—smoke gassed the entire room, its toxic smell making my stomach twist. The machine was fried, leaving most of its wires dancing by its sides.The smell choked me, forcing me to cough. With my elbow, I shielded my nose, while my eyes scanned the room for her.I spotted Bryan lying in the middle of the mess. Several things collapsed on him, and I thought I saw blood streaming from underneath one of them. My instincts kicked into Ron to his aid, which I did immediately.“Bryan,” I called, taking the things that obstructed my path off. They were a lot—from the woods from a frame, to some parts of the machine that exploded, and a part of the wall that crumbled in him. He groaned as he struggled to get himself free from the mess.“Don’t move. You’ll only make things worse,” I said. I searched around for an easier way through the mess, and that was when I spotted my

    JASMINES POVI took a deep breath in, lifting my face from the position it had dropped to after the energy surged through me. I expected it to have been strong enough to burst me out of the straps, but I guess it did what it could do—throwing her across the room. “What have you done!” Bryan yelled, taking quick strides across the room. His fingers wrapped around my neck, squeezing it with every strength he had in him. “What did you do to her?” “You should… probably step away,” I struggled to speak. He glanced at Lucy—she was regaining herself from the pieces of wood that shattered on her body, burying her in the pile. “You ingrate!” He cursed. His grip loosened around my neck with force, giving me the chance to take in as much air as I’d been deprived. “Get me out of here!” He coughed, choking on my words. Bryan left to attend to Lucy. He assisted her to her feet, and I could still see the rage in her eyes. It was there, lurking behind the pain that came from shock. She grasped

    JASMINES POVA sharp ache shot through my head, stirring me awake. I groaned as I forced my eyes open. They felt heavy, protesting against my will to open them. My entire body was cold, and I could feel my skin resting on cold metal that sent a shiver coursing through me. I blinked against the bright white light, forcing my eyes open finally. The first thing that hit my nose was the strong metallic scent of blood, mixed with something else—chemical perhaps. I could hear the echoes of distant voices before they dropped. Then, everything rushed back in a blur. The memories of what happened—was it a few minutes ago? There was no way to know what time it was as everywhere was dark except the white light flickering at the center of the room. My body stilled for a moment, then I made a move. A sting pierced through my legs, sending a jolt of pain running up my spine. I winced and lowered my head to see what it was. My legs were chained. Likewise my hands—were strapped to the metallic
