"Come in," The lady doctor entered the room. Alice, in an angry tone, said to her, "Why are you late? Hurry up and check." The doctor replied, "Yes," and requested, "Please leave, sir. I need to examine her thoroughly." "No! Check in front of me," Alice retorted.The lady doctor was taken aback by the possessiveness in his eyes and words. Reluctantly, she began the examination in front of Alice, who watched her every move, fearing any harm that might come to Alisha.After the examination, the doctor informed Alice, "Sir, Miss Alisha had an asthma attack due to stress and other factors. She also has marks on her cheeks." Alice recalled the incident when he had kissed her and then scared her . Shaking off his thoughts, he coldly instructed the doctor, "Just prescribe the necessary medications and leave." The doctor, feeling intimidated, quickly wrote the prescription and provided him with the details before leaving.Alice called a servant and ordered him to bring all the prescribed
Alice carried Alisha outside his room, radiating a dominating aura .Alisha, however, felt a sense of unease due to Alice's behaviour. She didn't want to be the cause of anyone's harm. The sight of Alice holding her, as he despised touching girls, left the servants in shock. It was the first time they had seen Alice show any affection towards someone."What are you all staring at? Dinner is ready," Alice noticed their astonishment and bellowed.The servants nodded nervously and quickly left the room, driven by fear.Alice sat down on his chair, gently placing Alisha on his lap, noticing her trembling from his earlier outburst, "Angel, there's no need to be afraid. As long as you behave as I desire, I won't harm you. Just don't make me angry, and everything will be fine." Alisha remained silent, not responding to his words, scared for her life.Alice slipped his hand under Alisha's T-shirt and forcefully pinched her thigh. Alisha let out a slight cry and pleaded, "It hurts, please st
Alisha glanced at the scattered glasses, and tears welled up in her eyes as she walked over them. When a piece of glass pierced her foot, she let out a scream, "Ah! Ah!"Alice watched as blood oozed from Alisha's wounded feet. Alisha's mother, overwhelmed with guilt for not helping her, observed the pain Alisha was in.Alisha stepped on more glass pieces, causing her to cry out in pain. Alice rushed to her side, picked her up, and gently placed her on his lap. He urgently called out, "Quick, bring the first aid kit!"A servant promptly arrived with the kit, and after administering first aid, left the room. Alisha sobbed like a baby, her cheeks flushed and her eyes swollen from crying.Alice carefully placed her to a nearby chair and knelt down to clean and dress her wounds. Alisha winced in pain as the medicine stung her feet.Once Alice finished dressing both of her feet, he placed her back on his lap. Alisha rested her head on his chest, continuing to cry. Alice comforted her by ge
Alice forcefully dragged Alisha along, causing her immense pain. Her throat throbbed with agony, intensifying her discomfort. Alice showed no concern as he dragged her by her leg, carelessly knocking into objects in their path. His sole focus was on teaching her a lesson, fully aware that he would succeed.Kneeling in front of Alisha, who sobbed silently, too terrified to utter a word, Alice grabbed her by the hair. "So, you want to leave, huh?" he sneered. "Let me show you what happens when someone defies my orders and goes against me. Don't worry, the lesson you're about to receive will be the best you've ever had.""Come here now,"Alice shouted to the guard.The guard trembled with fear and hurriedly approached, witnessing the pitiful state of the innocent girl. He knew that this was the consequence of crossing paths with Alice. Without hesitation, he awaited further instructions, desperate to avoid any mistakes that could jeopardise his own safety."I want you to bring me an iron c
Alisha stood there, unsure of how to process her emotions. Missing Mother Mary, blood dripping from her head, and her feet growing cold, she pleaded for someone to save her from this unbearable situation. How could one human treat another in such a monstrous way? He was a beast, ignorant of how to treat a person, and he continued to subject her to his cruelty. First, he had kidnapped her, and now he was inflicting further harm.Tears streamed down her face as she desperately cried out for help, but the cold winds offered no solace. She regretted ever taking Lucky for a walk. It was unfathomable how someone could be so heartless.In a low voice, she spoke to the guard, "Uncle, my feet are in pain. Please release me."Upon hearing her words, the guard felt a pang in his heart. He couldn't comprehend how an innocent soul could suffer so greatly without having done anything wrong. He couldn't fathom why she had to endure such torment. Her innocence was evident in her eyes, unlike Alice Sha
Alice watched everything unfold from the window, seething with anger as he saw the guard getting close to Alisha. He despised the fact that she was showing these innocent expressions to someone other than him. His anger boiled, and his eyes darkened, mirroring the darkening sky.He thought to himself, "This old man is waiting for his death. How dare he speak to her like that?"Seeing Alisha's interaction with the guard only fueled his rage. He vowed to kill the old man for daring to get close to his "angel."Alice muttered to himself, "You have no idea what you've gotten yourself into by showing your true colours to me. You're so desperate for attention, but I'll show you what happens when someone tries to play with me. You have no idea what's coming."As the door knocked, Alice grew even more infuriated. He stormed towards the door and opened it, finding his mother standing there. He asked, "What's the matter, Mom? Why aren't you sleeping?"His mother replied, "Alice, you've tied up t
Alice's anger grew with each passing second as he watched Alisha appear so innocent in front of another man, drinking water.Consumed by jealousy, he took long strides towards the guard and Alisha, who was innocently drinking water. Without hesitation, he delivered a powerful punch to the guard's face, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground, his head hitting the floor with a thud.Alisha was taken aback by this sudden act of violence. She got frightened to her core, not understanding why he had done this .Little did she know that he was willing to go to extreme lengths to ensure she belonged to him alone. He would even go as far as inflicting harm upon her, willing to gouge out her eyes if it meant she would never look at another man. Yet, here she was, concerned about the guard lying on the ground.Alisha asked, her voice trembling, "Are you alright, sir?" She completely ignored Alice's presence, further fueling his anger. "How dare you? How dare you speak to him?"
"This old hag will die if you don't remove your clothes. I swear, even if it means on this man's lifeless body, you will be left naked. So it's better to strip now rather than pretending you won't do it, because in the end, you will," Alice kicked the old guard once more and exclaimed,"Now it's up to you," “Please…”, she tried to beg. "Either you choose to be naked, or I will tear every piece of clothing from your body. It would be best if this old hag, who dared to come too close to you, met his demise first, and then I'll deal with you," Alice cut her off .Alisha trembled in fear and spoke through tears, "How can you kill him? You can't just take someone's life. It's a crime."Alice laughed and replied, "You're naive to think I won't do it. I will, regardless of how much of a crime it may seem to you."“Please, it's cold, and it's improper to remove one's clothes," Alisha's tears flowed even more."You're going to do it now, or I'll make you. I will never go back on my word, Angel
“What?” Rish gasped. “She’s getting her wolf back? How come she’s getting it before me? I’m older, and we’re both in the pack now. Why is she getting hers first?”More than shocked about Levi getting her wolf, he was shocked that she was getting it before him. When he was clearly older.“Keep your voice down, Rish, she’s sleeping,” Maya hushed him. “The timing of getting your wolf back doesn’t depend on age, dumbass. It happens when it’s supposed to. Because you both didn’t get your wolves on time, it’s more difficult and painful when the process finally happens.”Alisha looked at Maya with concern. “Am I going to go through the same thing?” She was scared.Seeing Levi suffer for the last two days had been tough. Though Alisha had endured a lot before, getting a wolf seemed far more painful.“Who knows, Alisha,” Maya said honestly. “Levi and Rish were not cursed; it’s just because they weren’t in the pack that they’re only getting their wolves now. But you’re different. Your wolf is o
"Levi, how are you feeling now?" Alisha asked, as she saw Levi pale and burning with fever.For the past two days, she had suddenly suffered from the fever, and damn, it wasn't getting any better. Her fever was only getting worse, making Levi look like she was going to die. While that may sound like an exaggeration of the situation, it was true that every hour she was fainting, and it was becoming more severe each time it happened."I'm feeling a little okay," Levi replied with difficulty, trying to smile, but failing miserably without a doubt."If you're feeling better, then why does your face look way worse than before?" Rish chimed in, his face looking stressed, showing the deep concern he had for his sister."Because...I have a fever. I'm not going to miss the World Cup because of it, so stop with these hypertensive reactions, Rish."He groaned. "Now it seems like your situation is getting better since you start having the energy to fight, which seems like a positive thing." He c
"You're thinking too much. Even if whatever happened in the past is trying to affect your present, don't let it, because that doesn't help at all," Maya advised.Jackson snapped back from his trance and nodded his head. "That's not changing anything. She doesn't want me too, and I don't feel any love or affection towards her.""Nobody is forcing you or her to feel anything, but maybe you both should try to get along. You're both old now; it's quite useless to behave like this," Maya said, her expression conveying how she found the situation absurd yet sensible at the same time.She could totally understand Jackson, and maybe somehow Lima too, as it's hard to accept mates when you're not on the same page.But it was dumb to be like this, especially after wasting 18 years.She regretted her own actions, and now, seeing others doing worse, she couldn't hold herself back.It was like the things one wants, others easily relinquish. She was here, dying to be with her mate, and yet these two
"Jackson, we need to talk. Why didn't you say anything about this whole situation? Not when you called her for help at the hospital, nor when we discussed going to her," Maya spoke sternly as she entered the room with him after dealing with everything.Jackson's face crunched in disgust upon hearing Maya's words, as if he had seen something weird. "Is that even important? She's a witch; helping people is her job. Why should I care? You're making it sound like a big deal, but it's not."Seeing how nonchalantly Jackson was reacting, Maya was dumbfounded. "That's not what I mean, Jackson. You know exactly what I'm trying to say here.""I don't know exactly, and you can stop talking in puzzles. It's totally fine if you talk normally.""Okay then," Maya groaned. "She's your second chance mate. Why are you so casual about it? And at the same time, you don't seem normal.""Did you skip the part where she mentioned how she rejected me, and on my part, I accepted it? Besides, it's been 18 year
"Then what about you? Always behaving so high and mighty, you're just a witch, don't forget," Jackson growled, having had enough of this woman. Though he didn't like her from the start when she came to the pack, why was a witch even needed? But then again, she helped with healing and other things, so he let it be.But he hated her whenever their paths crossed."You're angry because you were rejected, and your whole life went to hell after your wife died, and me, just a fucking witch, rejected you as a second chance mate," Lima spat her words venomously.Maya and Alice's eyes widened in shock. Mostly Maya was stunned. Of course, she knew how Jackson lost his wife in the attack, but she never knew that Lima was his second chance mate and had rejected him too.It made sense why she didn't know, because she was away for 18 years, but this whole situation was quite strange. He showed no sign of discomfort while they talked and decided to come here."I don't want a mate like you. I had on
"What brought you here? Let me have some peace. Didn't I tell you last time that I am now too old to help? Even when I helped before, my powers are still recovering, so find someone else," Lima softly sighed, seeing three familiar faces.It's not like she doesn't want to help, but her old bones can't assist at all. Even though Alisha is a royal heir, that doesn't mean she will put her life at stake. She is here due to a treaty, or else why would a witch live among werewolves?When the attack happened on this pack, she got sent here because Alisha's mother had some witch powers, so she was considered part of the witch side too. She helped them when they needed it, so as Lima came here to help the warriors and to heal others, she had to stay due to the circumstances, and how the pack needed her powers for healing and recovery.Now, she did help by telling about the curse and curing Alisha a bit. That doesn't mean she will keep doing it; she hates sticking her nose into business that isn
"Come here, sit down. Now tell us what you all found," Levi immediately came with water as soon as Alice, Maya, and Jackson entered.She, Rish, and Alisha were all so eager to know what happened about the whole building scenario.And all three of them were dissatisfied too because they were left behind. Usually, they all went there to train and were very familiar with the area, but today Maya allowed no one other than Alice, who obviously saw the building, so it was necessary for him to go.Elk had some work, so he couldn't go with them or stay at home either."Let us breathe. Why are you so eager?" Maya sighed as they all settled in their seats and took the water."How can we not be eager?" Rish stated. "You all went there without us, of course we are curious, and it's so hard to keep our calm after seeing you all.""That's because it wasn't necessary for so many of us to go there, and we can't just leave one person alone here, even though this house is safe. That doesn't mean I'm no
"Is this the place where you found the key?" Jackson asked, unsure of what to do next."Yes, this is exactly where I saw the building and got this key," Alice replied. How could he forget? Even in his dreams the previous night, he had seen that damned building and felt the exact same feeling as the moment he stood in that place. Now that they were here, the building was nowhere to be found, just as he had been unable to see it after exiting yesterday. Again, he wanted to dismiss yesterday as a dream, but this key wouldn't let that happen – nor would the vivid, detailed memory ingrained in his head.So it was useless to even try. But what now? There was no building here, and he didn't know what he was meant to do with this key.He brushed his hair back, stress clearly visible on his face. He didn't look panicked, but he was far from comfortable or at peace.This was mostly because of his involvement with the mafia; he rarely felt panic unless his mother or Alisha were somehow harmed
"I know you've suffered a lot, but that doesn't mean it'll set things straight," Maya said, her wrinkled face showing the weight of her exhaustion and stress. "It doesn't matter, Alisha. When you're in a place where you have to fight, death is unavoidable. Did you think you'd get the Alpha position peacefully?"How could she not be tired? Everything was taking its toll on her mind; she didn't even want to count it all. Finding Alisha had been her first priority, but back then, she hadn't thought deeply about what she'd do next or how things would work out.Now, when she did think about it, it seemed like a far-fetched dream. It was as if she'd only dreamed about the starting point—finding Alisha—and then never dreamed beyond that. And now she was suffering in her success: the attack, Alisha's curse, the pack's new Alpha, and this building mystery. Everything was crushing her.She didn't even know how to mend her relationship with Elk. He'd said he forgave her, but since that day, she
