Jace's POV

As Bella stood before me, I couldn't resist the pull of desire. I pulled her into a passionate kiss, my fingers tracing the curves of her body. The intensity of the moment heightened, and just as swiftly, I withdrew, surprising Bella.

Concern etched her features as she asked, "What's the matter, Jace? Don't you want me anymore?"

I reached into the closet, retrieving a robe to cover her body. "I do I want you more than the air I breathe, but not like this, Bella. This is not the way I pictured our first night to be."

Covering her nakedness with the robe, Bella's confusion surfaced. "I don't understand you, Jace. How did you picture it?"

Seating her on the bed, I explained, "On the day I take over the alpha position – remember, my father promised to hand over the alpha position to me when I find my mate – I was hoping to mark her on that same night, besides you're not in the right state of health, especially after the beating you received from those losers."

    Jace's POVReturning to the lounge, my mind was deep in contemplation over the argument with my father. I was definitely worked up, no matter how hard I tried to cover it.As soon as I stepped into the room, Bella, who was now awake, noticed my expression. She approached gently teasing, "What's the matter, baby? No good morning kiss for me?"I couldn't help but flash a big smile at Bella as I leaned in, placing a kiss on her forehead. Even though I wanted to be angry, I just couldn't. It was a huge challenge for me to be angry when she smiled at me with her big beautiful eyes. I looked into her eyes with a loving gaze "You know that I love you, right?"Bella responded smiling through her eyes , "Yes." She said as she wrapped her hands around me.playing with my beard she she locked eyes with me she questioned, "What's the matter, baby?

    Jace pov."Since you've refused to reject Bella, well, you can keep her as a side bitch, I have no problem with that. I was just discussing with Alpha Jack of the Red Wolf Pack, pairing you and his beautiful daughter together as a couple since she's yet to find her mate. You'll love her when you see her; she's beautiful, not like that good-for-nothing omega girl."I glared at my father, a mix of anger and disbelief in my eyes as I responded, "Read my lips, Dad. I said I am not interested."My father got up from his seat, glaring back at me. "Dinner is at 8:00 p.m. this evening. If you miss it, you won't believe I'm your father."I couldn't help but break character for a minute, as I burst out into laughter saying, "Oh really, Dad? It's so sad that you still think threats have any effect on me at this point."My dad got irritated by the laughter and lost his composure, barking out, "Well, guess what, Jace? If you think you're so out of control, guess who isn't—your stupid omega girl Bel

    Jace POVI took a deep breath, holding her tightly, feeling her warmth against mine. "They're following instructions from my dad, Bella. He doesn't just want me to reject you; he has arranged for a replacement for me. And if I disobey, he's going to take it out on you."She pulled out of the hug, looking me dead in the eye. "What are we going to do, Jace?" The sadness on her face was impossible to ignore."I have a plan, Bella. I have a plan," I responded."What is the plan, Jace? Please tell me, my love," curiosity etched on her face."We run away."Bella yelled out in shock, saying, "What?!!!!"I quickly covered her mouth, whispering, "Keep your voice down, Bella." I looked around to ensure nobody was eavesdropping on our conversation. Thankfully, there was no one around."What do you mean, run away, Jace? Is that the only idea you can come up with?" Bella whispered this time, her eyes locked on me, curiosity etched on her face."Well, look around you, Bella. Does it look like we ha

    Bella POV I walked into the room, exhaustion evident in every step. Stella greeted me with a tight hug, her face mirroring concern. "Bella, my friend, I'm so happy to see you. Tell me those bullies didn't hurt you much."I pulled out of the hug, removing my jacket. "They tried their best, but thankfully, Jace arrived just in time to help me."Sarah's compassionate gaze met mine. "Jace, the poor guy seems to have changed quite a lot since the party, I guess he really meant it when he said he was sorry."I managed a weak smile. "Jace is the sweetest. It's funny how he went from being the worst thing to ever happen to me to the best."Sarah responded with a cute smile, saying, "Awwwwn, and you two look so cute together. I think you two should go straight ahead to claim and mark each other already. Besides, he seems like the only escape for you right now. He can easily take you from omega to Luna faster than you can say wolf."I couldn't help but chuckle sadly as I replied, "Honestly, I

All that remained was to complete this last part of the act to avoid any suspicions and finally run away with the love of my life, Bella.Bianca was just about to leave with my dad, who was taking her back to her pack since she came alone. All I had to do was give her the gift I bought, put a smile on my dad's face, and, finally, Bella would be free while he was away.Bella wasn't aware of the remaining details of the plan; all she had to do was get her things ready and wait for my signal, which was going to be tonight for sure.I grabbed the gift for Bianca and hurried down the stairs so they could quickly leave together, giving me enough time to escape.

    Jace POV My heart pounded as I recognized my father in the incoming vehicle. There was no turning back now; we were caught in the crossroads of escape and confrontation.He stepped out of his car, a stern expression etched on his face and approached. "Jace, what do you think you're doing? You shouldn't be driving when you're drunk and dizzy, turn this car around immediately" he bellowed, his voice echoing through the night.I maintained a straight face, attempting to project an air of nonchalance, steering the conversation away from our true intentions. My hands gripped the wheel, and my foot hovered over the gas pedal."Come on, Dad," I began, "I'm just a young Alpha going through a midlife crisis. My mind is a mess, torn between two women. Bella is my mate, but, as you said, she's not good enough for me. On the other hand, Bianca isn't my mate, but she seems perfect. It's a tough choice, Dad. You know what it's like, being a man just like me."Dad rested his arm on the door, the wi

    Jace POVI gradually regained consciousness, my head throbbing with pain. The airbag had deployed, and the acrid scent of smoke filled the car. My vision was blurry, but I could make out Bella beside me, still strapped in, unconscious.Panic set in as I fumbled with the seatbelt, desperately trying to release Bella. "Bella, wake up!" I shouted, my voice hoarse. I shook her gently, fearing the worst.She groggily opened her eyes, confusion clouding her face. "Jace? What happened?" she mumbled."The brakes failed. We crashed into a tree. Are you hurt?" I asked, my concern evident.Bella winced, touching her forehead where a small cut trickled blood. "I think I'm okay. What about you?"Ignoring my own pain, I focused on assessing the situation. The car was wrecked, smoke billowing from the engine. We needed to get out before it caught fire."We need to move, Bella. The car might explode," I urged, urgency in my voice.With shaky movements, we crawled out of the wreckage, stumbling onto t

    Bella POV Jace led the way as we kept sprinting forward through the thick woods for several minutes, and I followed closely behind as fast as I could. The law enforcement officers and the alpha's men were a lot faster than I anticipated, and I was already out of breath, gasping for air. Jace glanced backward, noticing my struggle."Bella, what's the matter? We have to keep moving fast if we're going to get away from them," he urged, his voice tinged with concern.I tried to catch my breath, my chest heaving as I spoke between gasps, "My love, I don't think I can keep up with the chase anymore. The only way we're going to get away from them is if we shift."Before I could finish my sentence, Jace responded with a determined gaze, "That would be a huge error. We would only make it easier for them to track our scent, and we won't be able to get away from them without a fight."I sighed, feeling defeated. "So what do we do then?"But just as Jace was about to respond, several gunshots ra

    BELLA’S POV The next day, I woke up to see that Jace wasn’t in the room as well. Already, his attitude since he came back from the war, was beginning to piss me off.I had waited for a few minutes, and hadn’t seen him, so I decided to go to the living room to check on him. On getting to the living room, I walked down to the kitchen, only to find him, making breakfast. This made my cheeks, flush, and burn.“I’m making breakfast, my lady. And it is done. It’s just for me to serve it.”I blushed, and covered my mouth as I wanted to cover how much I was blushing. “I never expected you to cook.” I said, with a smile, which revealed my teeth.“I know, right? But I was trying to make up for last night. I know I acted so strange, but I was really tired. So, I’ll be making up, this way.” He said, and winked at me.I felt an adrenaline rush through my veins, and the way I stared at him, I could tell something was going to go on.

    BELLA’S POVIt had been two days now, and Bianca had been coming to our pack, without being stopped. Although, it was for the alliance reasons, but I wasn’t still okay with her presence.The evening breeze blew past me, softly, and I let out a sigh.“Hey. How long have you been here?” Jace asked as he wrapped his arm, around my waist. “Maybe an hour or two.” I responded with a smile, and then he gave me a kiss on my check. “Oh, really? I’ve been looking everywhere for you, but it didn’t come to my mind to check on this place.” Jace uttered, with a smile on his face.“Oh, really? Well, I’ve been here, sine you’ve been really busy with planning the war, with Bianca and her people.” I said, and looked back at the sky.“Hmm. Honey, I know you still aren’t comfortable with her presence, but if it’s left to me, I think she is much better, now. She isn’t giving this antagonistic vibe, anymore, neither is she trying to seduce me. So, I’ll say you should endure until the war is over, and I’m

    BIANCA’S POVOn my way home in my car, I felt my heart grow sour. Recalling the way Jace had placed power in Bella’s hands, made my hatred grow for her, more and more. She didn’t deserve that power, neither did she deserve to be respected.I was trying my best to be calm, but just getting into my car, the pretense and the restrain I put in my anger, set loose. I was literally burning in anger. On getting to my home, I headed to my room, in great and sharp strides. On getting to my room, I threw away all the things that I kept on my table, and then kicked the table, as well.“Ahhh!” I screamed out in anger. “Shit!” I cursed out loud. That wasn’t enough to cool my temper, so, I removed my bed cover in anger, and threw it on the floor. As it fell to the floor, I began to stomp on it, like I was trying to rip into pieces with my toe, claws.Then my door flung open immediately, and Lyla dashed in.She walked up to me, and held my shoulders, then looked into my eyes.“I heard about how th

To be able to overcome darkness or your enemy was one thing which made one feel very happy.Many people had always thought of Theresa to be the strongest witch, but ever since I came into the picture, that label had been washed off her.“Good morning, my love.” I heard Jac greet me as he walked into the balcony.And just before I could turn to look at him, his arms wrapped around me, and I felt butterflies fluttering in my stomach. All of me just wanted to snuggle in his arms, and if possible, become one with him.“Good morning, honey. How was your night?” I asked, with a smile as I looked at his hands which were knotted right below my breasts.“It was great, thanks to my love, who slept by my side.” Jace responded, and I couldn’t help but feel a burning sensation in my cheek.“Aww… that’s so sweet to hear.

    BIANCA’S POVI couldn’t let Jace get away with what he did, dumping me like that like a piece of trash. Even if what we had agreed on, was no longer valid, he ought to fear how capable our pack was, of destroying him. To think that he was going to have a mating ceremony very soon, got me angrier. What effrontery!But then, I wanted to get his pack into ruins to an extent that it would never be able to rise again, and to do that, I needed something more powerful than the physical. To achieve that, I would probably need the help of a witch.Considering the fact that they had a witch in their midst, which was none other than Bella, I had to also get a powerful witch who would be able to defeat her, and that’s also none other than Theresa, her mother.What was interesting about this, was the fact that both mother and daughter were going to war against each other, and with what I have heard, Theresa doesn’t want to acknowledge Bella as her daughter, so that was to our advantage.“Come clos

It was expected that he would have to sort out some things; especially after the zombie invasion and what had transpired between him and the Red Wolf Pack.Knowing the Red Wolf Pack, I just hoped that things were going to go smoothly, and there wouldn't be any cause for alarm or sort.It had been almost thirty minutes and I was beginning to think if I should just quit waiting for him and lie on the bed until I sleep off. I wouldn't want to distract him from doing his pack duties. Everyone looked up to him as the Alpha, so he had to live up to their expectations and plan the best for them.Just when I made move to lie on the bed, the door opened and I looked towards the door."I'm sorry I delayed you a bit." Jace apologized as he walked up to me, and joined me sitting on the bed."Oh, it's fine. You're now the Alpha, and the one everyone is looking up to, so I should understand all the

He tried to rape you or you already both had the sex.” I voiced out, feeling irritated by the lies she was spitting out.I didn’t really give a damn about her explanation or what really transpired between them. It was time to do the necessary, since everything had now come to an end.“Is there something wrong?” The Alpha of the Red Wolf asked as I got to the living room.They had all settled down since everything was over, and now at peace.“I’ve come here to make an important correction.” I said as I stood firmly.He looked at me like he , like he was trying to read my mind then he drifted his eyes to look at Bianca.“I’ll be ending the contract with you.
