Chapter 4

Quinn's pov 

I stretched my hands feeling pains all over. My headaches, and so did my eyes.

Suddenly, I opened my eyes widened, wanting to see if all I had been. Through was a dream, but it wasn't so.

"No!" I growled, hitting my hands against the bed. It seemed like I had woken up on the aggressive side of the bed this morning.

My head suddenly turned towards the door, my eyes shaking due to fear. My hands grabbed the shit because I thought Perrin was the one behind the door. But then again, I knew Perrin wasn't going to knock.

"Who is it?" I asked, and the lady behind the door spoke.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you, but I was asked to prepare you for today, and also bring you to the breakfast table."

I sighed. "Come in."

In a short while, she came in and lowered her head.

"I'll be preparing a bath for you now..."

I nodded and continued to ponder on what the other lady said last night.

"Was I going to be killed just like that?" I pondered and was worried about the way things were.

Soon, the bath was prepared, and she directed me to the bathroom where I took a nice bath. 

On getting out of the bathroom, she chose a dress for me.

"Would you like to wear this dress?" She asked but it didn't seem like I had any choice.

"Yes, I would. It seems good enough," I explained.

Once I had put on the dress, I stared at myself in the mirror and realized I was looking so good. I was given a pair of shoes as well.

After that, she made my hair, directing me afterward to the breakfast table.

The breakfast table seemed really lonely. I was the only one there, and constant thinking didn't let me enjoy what I eating.

The food didn't seem to pass through my throat, and I was more than worried about my life.

"You're done?" She asked, and  I nodded.

"I don't think I want to eat anymore. I would like to go for a walk. Something to clear my head." 

The maid nodded and proceeded to actually clear the table. However, I decided to go for a walk. I wanted to do anything to get the thoughts off my mind.

Pushing myself up from the dining chair, I dragged my legs outside the pack house. Maybe strolling around would make me feel better, maybe I could escape.

I harnessed that thought as I moved around the pack, and finally, I found a way to escape. It was at the back of the pack house, and the gate was right for me to pass through.

As I walked, I looked around, taking note of my surroundings, and that was when I walked into something. 

At first, I paused, swallowing, but when I saw it was in pain, I felt a sharp pain in my heart as well.

"Oh, poor thing..." I said, and swallowed as I inched closer. The little fox I saw. It was a baby fox, and from the looks of it, it was obvious that there was something wrong.

Not wanting to waste time, I moved towards her, crunching down to her level as I gently stretched my hands towards the place.

The fox was sacred so she tried to move away, but I tried my best, to show her that I wasn't harmful to her.

With time, she trusted me and rushed to my hands. There was no doubt that there were a lot of things involved. 

I felt really excited and decided to rub her gently until she got used to me.

"So innocent. I wonder what happened to you..." I explained and immediately felt sorry for the creature. Without thinking twice. I looked around to make sure there was no one there before finally waving my hands over the creature because I wanted to set her free.

As soon as I did that, her legs which seemed to be broken started to shake, and before I knew it, she jumped off my hands, causing a huge smirk to plaster on my face.

I was so proud, and couldn't help, but feel good.

My eyes suddenly turned to the direction where I saw him, and my eyes widened, as my feet remained planted in place. "Well, well well..." 

"A-al--" I didn't know what else to say. Seeing the alpha made me go crazy.

"So we have a healer in our midst, huh?" He asked, circling around me as a predator to his prey.

"How did I not notice this in the first place? How was I blind to such kind of power? Healers in the land have actually been long gone." 

I shivered in fear. I actually didn't want anyone to know about my power, but he managed to find out, and I didn't even know why he followed me in the first place. I made sure I wasn't being followed. Yet, he caught me.

He managed to grab me, making the creature run into the woods.

"You are going to heal me do you understand? You are going to use your powers to cure me!" 

"Cure you? There's nothing to be cured. You're alright. I know you are. You look as healthy as ever. Let me go!" I struggled under his grip, but he pinned me to the tree.

"I'm not asking I'm telling you. Besides, I just want to inform you that the legend is true. I am crippled, but then I have been using my wolf as a leverage, making me able to stand. However, it's draining my core." 

I eyed him from head to toe, feeling sparks all over me. It was as though he felt the same because, for a moment, we stared into each other's eyes, he couldn't take his eyes off me.

"I've told you what I want from you! You are going to do it. Do you understand?!" He yelled, and pulled away from me, leaving me with my chest heaving.

I took a moment to ponder on it, but I saw an opportunity.

"Well, unfortunately. I will help you, but I have my conditions.”

However, I didn't feel like discussing it with him at this time, so I decided to do something else about it."When we get back home, I'll tell you," I said, crossed my hands, and left his side without looking back.By the time we got into the pack house, there were a lot of things already going on. I really couldn't explain all I was feeling. I knew there was a way to finally get my freedom back. This was my time to finally experience life."Enough!"He yelled, causing me to stop in my tracks. Perrin was just something else."You can't keep running. What are your conditions?" He asked, eyes fixed on me, and I felt like he was going to seem alive any minute from now."I wanted us to discuss this behind closed doors, but it seems like you aren't patient enough.""Just say it already..."

    CHAPTER SIX:Quinn POV I grumbled all the way to Alpha Perrin's room, knowing full well how much I didn’t want to be near him—not even a little. But deep down, I knew it was something I had to do. If I wanted to get out of the enemies’ grip as soon as possible, this was a small sacrifice I needed to make. “Can I come in?” I called out after knocking on the door. Silence. Typical Perrin. He wasn’t much of a talker. After a moment, I added, “If you are not decent, Alpha Perrin, I suggest you fix that. I’m coming in.” I waited for a beat, then pushed the door open. The cold air hit my face as I stepped inside. The room felt emptier than I expected, almost lifeless. “Maybe he’s not here…” I muttered, scanning every corner of the space, hoping he would appear. “Then why call for me if he’s not even going to show up?” I sighed, turning to leave.Suddenly, I nearly walked right into him—a wall of a man standing silently in my path.My mouth fell open slightly as I took him in. He stood t

Either way, that’s not something I want—especially not with someone as vile as Perrin.“I am not interested in you that way!” I blurted out. The words tumbled out before I could stop them.I watched his face shift. His whole body went rigid, his expression twisting into confusion. His brow lifted, like he was waiting for me to repeat myself.“What?” he finally asked, his voice sharp.I pushed him back, putting some space between us as I sat up and stared down at the bed. “I have zero interest in you,” I said firmly, though my voice softened into a whisper. “Our marriage isn’t real, and you know it. Sleeping in your bed, being... intimate with you? That was never part of the plan. I don’t want you touching me” Alpha Perrin’s expression twisted into something unreadable—anger? Amusement? I couldn’t tell.“You are really full of you

    CHAPTER EIGHT Perrin POV "What does she want again?" my wolf growled inside me, and I couldn’t help but wonder the same. Did this woman actually do anything useful around here? Anything at all besides being a constant pest? All she ever did was try to stake her claim on Perrin. And now, here she was this morning, like an unemployed friend with nothing better to do on a Monday.“You really have no shame, do you?” she sneered, her face set in false confidence. But I could tell—beneath it all, she was burning with anger and jealousy. “Parading around like you belong here. Sleeping in his bed, acting all cozy. Guess I overestimated you. Turns out, you are nothing but a desperate little slut.”“Oh, and you are what? Perrin’s self-appointed guard dog?”” The words slipped out before I could stop myself. I might get into trouble with Perrin for this, but she was getting on my last nerve, and someone had to put her in her place.“What did you just say?” she snapped, her arms uncrossing as s

"I’m not sure I do well with blood," I confessed, looking at him again. "I don’t know if I have the strength to do this. I mean, if I do it, then what happens to us? When I want to heal you, my power will be drained, and—" "Do it," he said, cutting me off. His tone was more serious now, and the intensity in his gaze made me gulp again. Taking a deep breath, I stepped forward and crouched beside the man, whose face was twisted in pain. "We don’t have all day. And in case you haven’t noticed, I’m not a patient man," he said, breathing heavily. I stretched my hands toward the open wound. Closing my eyes, I tried to focus all my energy on it. I could feel my power traveling through every part of my body. My eyes shut tighter in concentration, and my breathing started to quicken. Warmth surrounded my hands. It

I rubbed my side dramatically, shooting him a glare. "Pretty sure there are better ways to handle a woman than tossing her around like a sack of potatoes. Just saying." Alpha Perrin didn’t even bother to respond. Apparently, I wasn’t worth it. Instead, his eyes dragged over me, like he was deciding whether to squash me like a bug or just ignore me completely. Then he let out this long, tired sigh—like my existence alone gave him a headache. "You can sleep on the bed today," he muttered, voice all grumbly like I had just asked him to donate a kidney. He avoided eye contact like looking at me might physically burn him. "Don't expect me to be this generous next time." And with that, he stalked off to a corner like some brooding vampire. "Oh wow, such chivalry," I mumbled under my breath. I wasn’t sure

    CHAPTER 11Alpha Perrin “No scar at all? It’s completely gone?” I asked, staring at the guard who now looked perfectly fine. “It’s nothing short of a miracle,” the doctor replied. “The leg was beyond saving, marked for amputation due to its inability to heal and the lack of a cure.” He inspected the guard closely. “But now, he’s completely fine.” “It seems the healer’s magic worked,” the guard added respectfully, glancing at me. “Otherwise, how else can one explain how I healed so suddenly, Alpha?” I stroked my chin, studying the guard’s fully healed leg. The scar was completely gone, and he looked as if he hadn’t been on the brink of death from wolfsbane poisoning. “And you are absolutely sure none of the medicine you gave him caused this?” I asked the doctor again, needing confirmation. He shook his head. “For a wolfsbane poisoning that severe, none of the medicine I have would have worked,” he admitted. I let out a deep breath, processing his words. So, she wasn’t us

    Quinn's POV (Few minutes earlier )A spy? A freaking spy? I stared at the note in my hands, reading it over and over again as if the words would magically change into something less ridiculous. Why in the world would my father want me to spy on Alpha Perrin? What the hell was he up to? And more importantly—why did he think I would be remotely good at this? One wrong move and Perrin would wipe out our entire pack without breaking a sweat. Was this really a risk anyone was willing to take? Because I, for one, was not. I was still trying to wrap my head around it when a voice snapped me out of my thoughts. “What took you so long?” The head maid stood at the bottom of the stairs, arms crossed, her expression as stiff as the apron wrapped around her waist. I barely had time to react before she continued, “I said thirty minutes. You are two minutes late. I will let it slide since it’s your first day, but next time, I expect you to be on time.” Two minutes? I swallowed a sigh

I was confused and conflicted between two people and i didn't think that a decision or a choice would be this difficult to make," I went north with Theodore, my arms hugging tight against me. The moving steps felt as if they were treading on thin and heavy ground.I don't understand why I agreed to this. I should have stayed by Perrin. He was the one I've chosen long ago. I already said I'm not leaving.So why does being here feel like betrayal? I thought, confused.He was a few strides ahead of me, relaxed, not like me, not holding any air of uncertainty. Not anxious, moving as if he belonged.There was something I really wanted to say, but the words failed me.And that stretched the silence between us.At last, Theodore stopped then turned toward me.

    QUINNAs I watched Theodore, about to leave my sight, my lips betrayed me, "Theodore."His name slipped my lips so easily, so naturally. I don’t even know why I said it. But, the moment I did, Theodore stopped.He turned slowly, eyes locking with my golden hues. He didn't say anything, but he didn't need it. I could feel it in the air- he was thinking I wanted him to stay.I could feel that Perrin was boiling beside me, I didn't need a seer to tell me that I had just provoked him because if I was in his shoes, I would have been provoked as well.I turned to Perrin, deciding to explain to him, "The thing is… I've known Theodore for some time now, Perrin. He was my childhood friend and we've been almost inseparable," I said.Perrin was quiet and feared me greatly.The room was now silent or rather hushed. The pack, the Elders, and the guards watched and waited. Their gaze flickered between the three of us. I had just stopped Theodore. What did that mean? I couldn't even comprehend why

    QUINN Perrin growled as he twitched next to me; it was the sound I had heard before: A warning, full of anger and pain.Just like any other wolf, Perrin didn't take what he heard lightly My eyes widened as I felt that I was in deep trouble, for a second, my heart was racing fast, and I was confused for a second. I was numb earlier but I suddenly became aware of my surroundings and it then that I realized a hand around meI was hugging Theodore! My mind was racing, processing my surroundings; the way things happened all at once made it extremely hard for me to comprehend.The room went quiet. All eyes were on me. The Elders, the pack members, the guards: they all looked at me suddenly frozen with shock, confusion, even anger. But the scariest of the lot was Perrin.His hands were in fists; his jaw was tight. His chest rose and fell heavily, and his dark eyes burned in rage. He looked like he was barely holding himself back from shifting, from attacking.I swallowed hard before my br

    QUINNJust like I expected, the next morning came quickly and I was overjoyed and nervous at the same time. In some minutes from now, I'll be made the Luna of this great pack, the thought alone made me blush.The sunlight reflected into my room through the curtains, making the room bright made me smile. My heart raced as I lay still for a moment to grasp the reality of what today meant. Today, I would be made Luna, the official leader of this pack. An equal to Perrin. Any remaining thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door. "Come in," I called, sitting up. The door opened, revealing a group of the heads of each serving group in the pack house."It is time to prepare, Luna Quinn," one of them said while bowing. Luna Quinn. The words sent a chill down my spine; the thought alone was overwhelming, and now I was in the reality of it. The smile on my face was inevitable as the only thing that went through my small mind was Perrin. He made all of this possible.This reminded me

    QUINN"Oh my God," I yawned in bed as I stood to my feet. Even with all the troubles I had and hate that I have received, I was certain of one thing, I found love where I never thought I would find it. I found strength in myself that I didn't know existed. Most importantly, I found a home because of where I was and who I was with.Perrin.He had turned into my refuge, my rock, my everything.Even when I was still coming to terms with my past, he always stood by my side. Even when I mustered every ounce of my strength to tell myself I didn't matter; he would be there saying, "You do matter." And now, I couldn't even begin to consider my life without himI needn't have to.I and Perrin walked silently as his thumb stroked slow, soothing circles on the back of my hand. My heart beat in a steady rhythm, not because of nerves but because of the quiet confidence that, whatever lay ahead, I wanted to face it with him.In a few minutes, we stepped into an opening. It was absolutely beautiful

    Quinn's POV The days after that day became slow and numb as I still couldn't come to peace with what my parents had said.Oops. I forgot, that they completely made it clear to me that I was no longer their child, or rather in the same words they used, they said I was never their childI've been someone else my whole life. The thought of it made me wonder if I had ever experienced a love from family beforeBut who? Who was the family? I had no one! It was disheartening.The truth had smashed to pieces everything I ever thought about myself. I had lived my whole life trying to please those who had never really wanted me. And now that I knew it, I didn't know what to do with that knowledge.Perrin stood beside me through it all.He did not push me into talking when I was not ready. He did not tell me to forget or move on. He just stayed, his presence strong and steady, like an anchor keeping me from drifting too far into the storm of my thoughts.In the beginning, I hardly opened my mou

"Believe what you want; it won't change the truth."Quinn's breathing gradually, trying to comprehend what was happening, her mind was reeling. She was looking back and forth between them, searching for something, anything, that could possibly indicate they were wrong. There was nothing.I knew the moment the full weight of those words washed over her.Then she ran."Quinn!" I yelled and stretched my hand toward her, but she was already gone.Through the doors she charged, her cloak trailing in the wind as she slipped into the black of night.My blood boiled. I turned to her parents, fists clenched. "Leave," I snarled. "Now."Her father laughed mockingly. "You can't order us around."I stepped toward him, my voice low and stern. "If you ever show your face again in my pack, I will kill you.""If there's somet

    PERRINWalking from a distance down the long corridor to see Quinn, I heard shouting. Not just shouting, there must definitely have been heated arguments between them, turning even into a little fight that I expected not too much of. Just in a blink, Laila was over the balcony, clutching the railing for support with her hands. Quinn staggered back against the railing of the balcony, with Laila pushing her, trying to throw her over. Furiously, I headed down toward them, but before I arrived, Laila was already over the fence, limbs throwing about like crazy, trying to grab onto anything. But nothing seems to witness her last breath. Gone.The screams filled the area as I ran forward, I caught the railing by grasp and looked out below. Laila's body remained still. I turned back towards Quinn. Clutching onto the railing, she was breathing harshly and wide-eyed with shock. I reached out to her. "Are you injured?" She shook her head, trembling even now. "She... she tried to push me."

    QUINNI narrowed my eyes, trying not to believe him.Perrin beckoned for me to follow him and I did. We got to his office, and standing in there with the thought that my elder sister had been dragged away was disheartening.I swallowed hard as Perrin turned to me, asking, “Tell me what happened! All that I didn't listen to before, I'm ready to listen now!" I looked down and then turned to the side as I didn't want to gaze into his eyes.I started talking, telling him about the night I was taken and how the guards had accused me of poisoning Gianna. How they never let me explain, never gave me a chance to defend myself. I told him how they had dragged me to a cold, dark cell, how they had starved me, beaten me, and forced me to heal until I was too weak to stand.I told him about their murmurs, making sure I left nothing out. The way the pack had turned against me so easily. How no one had come for me.How I had given up hope.Perrin listened, frowning at every word. His fists clenched
