Jace POV

I ran down the stairs excitedly; everything was going according to plan. I had my dad right where I wanted him, with enough money saved to serve Bella and me for two lifetimes, even if we never worked again. 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. However, my eyes fell on something unexpected.

Bella was on her knees in front of Bianca, who wore a satisfied grin, a

    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

"Have you gone mad, Fredo? What's the matter with you? How dare you point a gun at my mate!" Fredo's response was chilling, his smile sinister as he spoke. "Let's just say your mate and I have some unfinished business to settle, my friend." I stood there, panting, my body trembling with fear and adrenaline. Jace's growl cut through the tension, his glare filled with contempt as he addressed Fredo. "First of all, don't call me your friend, you bloody scum. And secondly,

    Bella povAs I took a desperate dive off the cliff, my head slammed into a rock, knocking me unconscious. Involuntarily, I shifted back to my human form, the force of the water slamming my body against the rock roughly, carrying me further downstream. I was too weak to move a muscle or attempt to swim against the powerful current. Instead, I closed my eyes and surrendered to the relentless flow.Hours later, I regained consciousness to find myself floating in the middle of a river, disoriented and weak. Gasping for breath, a sudden thought pierced through the fog in my mind—JACE! Panic surged within me like a tidal wave, my heart pounding in my chest."Jace!" I shouted into the wilderness, the sound of my own voice echoing off the surrounding cliffs. But there was no response, only the rushing of the water as it carried me farther away from the waterfall where tragedy had struck.Desperation clawed at my chest as I struggled to stay afloat, my mind racing with fear and uncertainty.

"I-I'm sorry, Alpha Diablo," I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper. "I... I didn't mean to disrespect you. I was just... surprised."Alpha Diablo's piercing gaze remained fixed on me, and he twitched his eyebrows as if taken aback by my response. Slowly, he began to approach me, closing the gap between us with deliberate steps.As he drew nearer, a wave of panic washed over me, and I felt a cold sweat break out on my forehead. My heart pounded in my chest, and I struggled to keep my composure under his intense scrutiny."Surprised?" Alpha Diablo demanded, his voice echoing through the chamber like thunder.

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

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

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.

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
