QUINN

Theodore’s words stuck with me long after we went our separate ways, their echo a whisper of something I hadn’t experienced in years: agency in my own life.

But I didn’t run.

Instead, I stayed.

Because as much as Theodore had been a respite, I wasn’t prepared to leave Perrin behind. Not yet.

But something had changed between us. Not merely because of what we’d gone through, but because the Perrin was attempting — actually attempting. He asked questions rather than issuing orders. He preferred listening to talking. And sometimes, if we sat there together in silence long enough, I could feel him hoisting up the guilt he carried around like another layer of skin.

He no longer attempted to conceal it. And perhaps it was that honesty, that quiet vulnerability, that finally had the walls between us start crumbling.

One night, curled on the window seat in our room, I finally said what I’d never thought I’d say out loud.

“I hated you for so many years.”

Perrin didn’t flinch. He nodded—o

    QUINNThe wind was strong. I was still in the garden, dwelling on what Theodore said. So much had already happened, and my heart was weary. I needed some peace, just a little peace to think.But I didn’t get it.Suddenly, a loud howling erupted in the distance. The air changed. I glanced around, feeling danger in the air. As a few guards rushed past me, I heard one of them yelling, “We’re under attack!”What?Before I could get out of the way, someone caught my arm. I spun around, ready to fight, but stopped when I saw Theodore.“Come with me,” he said, hurriedly. His eyes were wide, serious. “It’s not safe here.”“What do you mean?” I asked. “Where’s Perrin?”“He’s holding the line. He’s battling with the other warriors to defend the pack,” Theodore said, motioning for me to follow. “He told me to get you to safety.”It didn’t sound like Perrin. He would have never left without saying anything. Still, I followed. Maybe it was really bad.Theodore took me to the back gate. A black car

Please.”Theodore stared down, pondering.Finally, he nodded. “Okay. I’ll take you back.”Relief flooded me. I wasn’t sure what awaited me when I returned to the pack, but I had to face it. With Perrin. Together.We hopped back in the car and began the long drive home. My pulse raced the entire trip there.When the pack house came into focus, I noticed the damage. Some trees were broken. The fence had scorch marks. It really had been a battle.Theodore parked way in the back, like he didn’t want anyone to see him.“You’re going to be fine from here,” he said. “If you need me again… you know how to find me.”So I nodded and opened the door and stepped out. I turned once to look at him. “Thank you. For trying.”He gave me a sad smile. “Always.”Then I ran.I dashed all the way toward the main hall, the rhythm of my heart exploding

    QUINN POVDays passed, and I did not see Perrin. I asked Theodore about him every day but he always had an excuse as to why Perrin couldn’t join.“He’s occupied with the pack,” Theodore said one morning.“He’s dealing with some urgent matters,” he told me the following day.“Making sure everybody’s safe,” was his excuse the next day.I started to worry. If he could have, Perrin would have come to see me. Something didn't feel right.One evening, I was sitting next to the window as the sun went down. The sky turned orange and pink, and I felt no pleasure. I missed Perrin. I mourned his voice, his touch, his presence.I turned to Theodore. I want to see Perrin,” I said adamantly.He looked surprised. “Quinn, he’s busy doing some very important stuff. He'll come when he can."I shook my head.

    Chapter one Quinn's pov“No, no, no!!!” I screamed, joking up from the bed with my hair as rough as it could be. Thick sweat trailed all over my body, and my hands were shaking as though there was no tomorrow. My chase paced as my drumming heart, and it got really hard for me to swallow.“What kind of nightmare is this?” I asked, and just then, I heard a banging sound.“BOOM!” The house shook, making my eyes widen. I immediately threw my legs off the bed, holding on to my nightgown as I rushed out of there with worry in mind.“You’ve got to be kidding me,” I said when I got to the living room. My parents, who were leaders of the pack, were already dressed up in their armor, ready for battle.“Mom, Dad, what's going on?” I said with worry imprinted on my face. However, my mother rushed towards me and grabbed my shoulders.“You better save my daughter. You better!” She urged, pushing me towards the way I came.“Take Laila and carry her to the bunker. Do you hear me?” She asked, and I

    Chapter 2Quinn's pov.“You don't need to be scared, he's just a crippled Alpha.” My wolf said.She wasn't wrong. We had heard a lot about the alpha over the past few years, but then one rumor about the reason why he never came out to invade or negotiate with packs was that he was crippled. “Maybe he wants me to be his servant,” I replied to my wolf, trying my best to be still as the vehicle carried us away.My hands were shaking. It was as though my body feared the future. I was trying my best to ensure that I wasn't bothered, but the situation needed fear.“We're here!” One of the guards announced to my hearing, and instead of feeling better about ending the excruciating journey, I wished the journey never ended.The guards helped me out of the car but secured me tightly so I wouldn't run away, and I tried my best not to annoy any of them because there was no one to save me there. My mind only reeled around what my life was going to become.Suddenly, the huge door was pushed open,

    Chapter 3Quinn's pov“Well, why isn't she answering?” The audience became demanding. Little did they know that I was about to marry a man I just met.Alpha Perrin cleared his throat, and I raised my eyes to meet his glaring gaze. I knew what he meant, but was it all worth it? Was I really about to remain tied to a stranger for the rest of my life?“Ma'am, you have to answer. Do you take Alpha Perrin to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Even the priest sounded like he was urging me.I swallowed, my eyes being raised to the man who was standing there. He had a serious look on his face as though he was about to skin me alive."Yes!" I screamed hesitantly, or maybe it was the pressure I felt. However, no one seemed to care about it.The elder in that same faith turned to Perrin and asked him the same question. However, the man who had just met me for the very first time didn't hesitate to agree."Yes I do," Perrin answered, his voice firm.Then the elder nodded and continued."In the nam

    PERRINFor weeks, Quinn and I had been walking ghosts under the same roof.We would nod to one another, ghostly pale...well, something like this, as we passed in the hall; maybe emit a few meaningless words when necessary; maybe eat when necessary or not at all-somehow one of us would make an excuse to leave, while the other pretended not to notice.I did not know how things were coming to be.Maybe it had something to do with Theodore. Or maybe it was the simmering fear that neither of us wanted to acknowledge. Or maybe it was both of us slowly drifting away and refusing to admit it.What hurt the most was that I loved her, and it seemed that it did not matter anymore.Some nights I would lie awake with her just a few feet away, curled upon the edge of the bed as if afraid to take up space. I would watch her breathe and wonder whether that would be the beginning of the end.And part of me, the one I hated, had already begun to ready itself.---Neither of us ever voiced it, but I kne

    QUINNThe space between Perrin and me had suddenly shifted into something unspoken, something very cold that quietly set in between us.I could feel it every time he passed my way without brushing my hand like he used to. Every time he answered my questions with a nod or a blunt reply. Every time I reached out and tried to hold him, he sidestepped away from me in such a delicate way that it could be construed as nothing—yet I felt it.And I hurt far more than I would have wanted to confess.In my deluded mind, choosing him would have been the cure for any confusion. It would have silenced the voices in my head. It would have eased the storm that raged in my chest. But then it did not. Actually, the bond with Theodore was not even the major culprit anymore.It was us.Perrin and me.I didn’t know how to fix us.---Theodore had stirred too much about the manor.He was rude, proud, conceited, and good at getting on one’s nerves, but so was the dark one. Wherever he was, Theodore had bee

  • Married to the disabled Alpha : his antidote    chapter

    PERRINI didn’t trust him at all.Not even when the bond was broken. Not even when Quinn chose me. I still didn’t trust Theodore.It had nothing to do with jealousy.It had to do with the way he looked at her. As though she were the sun following a long winter, as though, no matter how many times she turned away, he would keep hoping to turn back again. And worst of all?But he never said it in the presence of Quinn. Smiled, played the respectful guest. However, when her back was turned, just us two, the claws came out. ---This happened for the first time when we were in the eastern yard for training.It had been a tiring day: scouts had been informed of rogue noises on the border, and there was very little sleep from the previous night. My patience was thinning already.Theodore was standing there with the younger warriors, giving them lessons as if he were one of them as if he had a say in how such things were done in my pack.I approached him, nodding as I passed the warriors.
