Zelene Sallow:

I stood in the corner of the grand living room, my hands bound before me in obedience. It had only been a day since I found myself caught in a web of deceit and traps. After confessing to Ray that I felt a mate bond with his brothers, he stormed off our property and blocked my number, only to inform my parents that his mother had summoned me the next morning. And here I was, standing in the royal mansion, sleep-deprived and with bags under my eyes. I was starving, but no one seemed to care.

My father had dragged me here to present me before the Royal Mother.

"That's Alpha King Shane Cage!" Her voice hit me before her sight as she entered the room. I was shaken from my daze. The Royal Mother, dressed in her usual black attire, commanded attention. The crimson dots in her green eyes reminded me of her heroic role in saving the packs. Her pale skin appeared even paler against the black dress, and her jet-black hair had a single streak of white.

She must have noticed my gaze shifting towards the portraits adorning the wall. "Your Highne—" I began to bow to show respect, but a sudden hand gesture from her silenced my words.

"You know what you've done, right?" she asked, stopping a few feet away from me. Her sons began to enter one by one, and the sight of them, with Ray refusing to look at me, felt like the ultimate defeat.

"I haven't done anything. I was drugged," I repeated like a broken record, refusing to take the blame for someone else's malicious plans.

"You're not going to stand here and steal my sons' genuine excuses. They were drugged, and you did it to them," she dismissed any further explanation from me, declaring me a liar and a manipulator.

"I did—" I tried to speak, but Ray grunted, cutting me off.

"Don't talk back to her," he yelled, causing me to gulp and lower my head.

"Thankfully, my sons still love me. You see, they are young and impressionable. I'm sure you met them at the party, before you drugged them and forced yourself on them," she paused, sighing in disgust at my presence.

"If not, let me tell you a little bit about them. Shane is a playful young lad. He desires anything that catches his eye, whether it's a property or a she-wolf," she mentioned the tall Alpha blue eyes and roughly styled blond hair.

"Axel Leon is loving and compassionate. He doesn't believe in second chances. He makes up his mind, and then nothing can be done to change it. He enjoys being in the mountains, hiking, and finding solace. But he wants what's his to be his alone," she continued, and the hazel-eyed Alpha nodded in agreement when she spoke about him, his sharp jaw clenching when our eyes briefly met.

"My son Oscar Reese seeks attention for all the right reasons. Apart from being a street fighter, he craves adoration from his mother and his brothers," she forced a smile when she pointed at the black-haired, green-eyed Alpha, bearing visible injuries from his fights the previous night. I could tell the last night's fight must have been rooted in the deep anger he had for me.

"And finally, my loyal and hard-working son, Alpha King Ray Steele. I'm sure you knew him. You visited his office and were stunned by his dedication to his business, so you decided to lure him into a trap of love," she continued with her own wild theories about my love for her grey-eyed son with black hair, prompting me to intervene. "Every one of my sons is outstanding. How dare you even think of being with them? You are simply not worthy!"

This was her way of telling me how special her sons were and how I could never be with them.

"It's a mate bond! It's created by the Moon Goddess, not me," I interjected, watching her raise an eyebrow in response.

"Listen, Zelene. When the red riot happened between packers and fosters, and we lost many warriors and alphas to those rogue guzzlers, I took it upon myself to keep what was left of the werewolf packs safe," she dramatically sighed, reminiscing about the devastating war that resulted in a major shift in power.

The pack members are collectively called packers, and the white rogue wolves are called fosters, or guzzlers.

"These rogue wolves were vicious and extremely powerful. I faced numerous challenges. Many smaller packs lost their alphas and betas, and they didn't have anyone to guide them. I took them under my wing and brought them to our pack," she pointed to herself, her sons bowing their heads in respect. They all wore black clothes, as if preparing for a funeral. In their mother's presence, they seemed devoid of compassion for anything else, which worried me.

"At that time, I had just suffered the loss of my beloved mate, my Alpha King. But I kept going for the sake of the packers. That's why all the packs respect and love me so much. That's why I'm called the mother of werewolves, the Royal Mother. I hold second place after the Moon Goddess herself," she spoke with pride, indicating that she would not tolerate anyone crossing her.

"Because even after so much destruction, I stood firm. I searched far and wide, bringing in these four orphans who were born on the same day, year, and time, tied by elemental birthmarks on their necks. The Moon Goddess wanted me to be their mother, and I found them on my own. They had lost their parents and packs during the red riot. I molded them into who they are today. I created a brotherly bond between them, connecting them with love and trust as if they were truly blood-related. I made them soul brothers so they could grow up strong and take over the East, West, North, and South as Alpha Kings, reclaiming what was rightfully ours. But what did you do?" She hissed, her self-praise coming to an end.

"I saw my son look at his brothers with disdain after I had worked so hard to ensure they never turned their backs on each other. All because of you," she cupped my face suddenly, her nails digging into my cheeks before releasing her grip and regaining control.

"I am their mate," I managed to utter under the harsh gazes of so many Alphas and their controlling mother. The Royal Mother took a double take, making sure she heard me correctly. Her eyes then shifted to her sons, who, despite her claims, had not shared this important information with her.

"What is this girl saying?" Her anger must have been overwhelming, as she couldn't even bear to look at her sons' faces.

Ray closed his eyes, taking steady breaths.

"She is lying," Oscar, the one who aimed to please their mother, was the first to lie. I stared at him, unashamed of our intimate encounter, and from the way he glared back, I could tell he remembered it, too. There was no way an alpha king would forget something so pertinent when an Omega's wolf remembered it so well.

"I didn't feel it either," Shane Cage, the pack's notorious womanizer, muttered.

"Neither did I," joined Axel Leon, the toxic and unstable Alpha King.

"They are lying. I don't know why, but—" I began to panic, realizing that they were willing to hide such a significant truth to avoid appearing weak for having an Omega as a mate and, of course, not to upset their mother and the brother they were trying to reconcile with.

"Did you really think you would be special enough to have so many mates? Huh!" Lady Jewel finally yelled. She had once again cupped my face; this time her expression became cold. "In your eyes, I see only a restless soul, craving to be shared among different men, instigating their conflicts, all for the sake of gaining power for yourself.".

"But—" I stammered, tears welling up in my eyes.

"Hush! My son spent the whole night at my feet, trying to convince me to let him accept you. But now I understand why I wanted to choose their mates. You see, the Moon Goddess can make mistakes, but a mother never does. Hence, Ray—-do it," she pushed me back, and I landed on the cold white tiles, watching Ray obediently step forward and tower over me.

"I, Alpha Ray of the Venom Eclipse Pack, reject Zelene Sallow as my mate," he announced, stepping back as my body felt the pain of a million stabs.

"I'm not ly—" I began, my quivering lips making one last attempt to tell the truth, even though everything had already ended.

"Her fate is decided. Just like any other traitor, she will be sent to the deadliest of prisons, the Dark Hole," Lady Jewel shrugged and patted her son's back, attempting to comfort him in the calmest way possible before motioning to the others to open the door and summon the guards to take me away.

"She will rot there for the rest of her life, while my sons will continue to live their best lives with the mates I choose for them," she yelled from the other corner of the living room as she walked away.

"No! This is unfair. I wasn't the only one involved. If you want to continue being seen as a person of justice, hold your sons accountable for their actions too," I protested, but the guards paid no attention as they grabbed me and began dragging me out of the living room. "Wait, let me explain," I begged, forcing myself to remember the details of that night. "Please!" No matter how much I yelled for them to listen, they didn't care.

The brothers, who were equally responsible for that night's disaster, didn't even bat an eye. I was the only one being punished. As the guards dragged me out of the mansion, I found myself surrounded by angry pack members.

"Slut!" a woman yelled.

"Don't end up like her," another woman warned her daughter, pointing a finger in my direction.

I was petrified by the anger in their eyes.

"She was so lucky to be accepted by Alpha Ray, and then she decided to go out and have a gangbang with those guards," another pack member twisted the truth, making me realize how much they were distorting the events. Lady Jewel withheld her sons' names and instead threw the accusations at some random guards.

"That's not true! It was—" I made one final attempt to make the brothers pay for lying, but a woman from the crowd hit me in the eye with her shoe.

Dizziness overcame me, and darkness enveloped my vision.

    Zelene Sallow:2 Months Later:I held the cold loaf of bread while a bowl of tomato soup sat in front of me on the table. The blue jumpsuit had become the only color in my life. These past months have turned my world upside down. Sitting among the inmates felt like a never-ending nightmare."If you don't want that, I'll eat it," the forty-five-year-old bully said as she snatched the bread from my hand. Lost in my own thoughts and internally crying over my wretched life, I was too occupied to react."Ginger!" another inmate laughed, taunting me, as tears welled up in my eyes. Ginger, the towering bully, stood at six feet tall with a heavy build. Weighing around 190 pounds, she was both intimidating and insane. Her fiery tangerine-orange hair earned her the nickname.I didn't argue with her, even as she pushed my tray away, causing the soup to spill. I remained silent, refusing to defend myself. Anyone who opposed her ended up badly injured, and I was too frail to withstand her torment,

    Zelene Sallow:A Few Months Later:"Arghhh!" I groaned internally, gazing up at the sky and grumbling as the sun beat down on our heads. I was heavily pregnant to the point where my health had declined—an inexplicable condition, according to the doctor. It felt as though I was not merely giving birth to one child.Unfortunately, the rest remained elusive. None of the prisoners were willing to assist me with my tasks, and they even went so far as to complain that I had been intentionally made pregnant by one of the guards to secure extra rations. Consequently, they drafted a petition demanding that I continue working without any additional benefits for my pregnancy.Day after day, we toiled diligently under the scorching sun.Raising the axe into the air to chop the wood, I soon realized that continuing to work was impossible. The axe slipped from my grasp, falling to the ground."Ah!" I grunted, biting my lip as I slowly knelt down."She's at it again," one of the prisoners complained

    Oscar Reese:Sitting among my brothers and enjoying breakfast used to be so much fun. We would discuss our daily activities, delve into pack matters, and excitedly share our grand plans for division while contemplating rules that would benefit everyone. But now, everything has changed.Ever since that night, we haven't been able to make Ray feel comfortable. Although he is physically present with us, his gaze often makes us feel judged."Ray! How is Vera?" Mom put her spoon down and directly addressed him, noticing his silence throughout our meal."Fine," he replied, mustering a smile for our mother."Hmm! Vera's father was complaining about her inability to persuade you to take her on vacation," Mom commented, referring to the Royal Beta of the pack.Hans Rudd was genuinely helpful and had always supported us in every matter. Vera, our childhood friend, had a significant crush on Ray."The meetings have been draining me. I will plan something soon enough," Ray diverted his gaze from

    Oscar Reese:"Are you alright, Your Highness?" the warden asked, offering me some water, but I waved her hand away to dismiss her."Leave me alone for now," I stated, aimlessly wandering around the empty room with a table in the center, upon which the baby lay.Understanding my lack of desire for conversation, the warden left me alone in the room with the baby.'Os! This must be our child,' I spoke to my wolf, who had been slightly upset with me over a matter I had ignored.'Check her neck for the birthmark. If she is our daughter, she must have a birthmark like ours,' Os was right. I swiftly approached her, then immediately stepped back, feeling nauseated.'I'm not touching this thing,' I shook my head. But it made sense. Why was I so convinced that this was my child? It could belong to someone else. There was no indication of how many mates make a weresin.It could even be my two brothers'.I hadn't revealed to them who the mother of the weresin was. They were on their way to the pr

    Zelene Sallow:I found myself bound in chains as they forcibly took away my baby, denying me the chance to even feed her once. Sitting against the wall, I could hear their voices discussing my daughter in the adjacent room. The mere thought of them speaking about her in such a derogatory manner shattered me into a million pieces. I couldn't fathom how any parent could describe their own child as a monster, as they did.Suddenly, silence fell upon them. Having overheard their final plan, I knew what awaited me when the guard arrived to fetch me. The guard unfastened the chains that kept me tethered to the wall, gripping my arm tightly as he callously dragged me along, disregarding my weakened state. I struggled to keep up with him, fearful of stumbling. Eventually, he shoved me into a room where my daughter and the brothers, who were akin to monsters, awaited. Their scrutinizing gazes fixated upon me."Not yet!" Shane interjected, blocking my path as I attempted to rush towards the tab

    Zelene Sallow:I found myself confined to a separate car, accompanied by guards and gunmen. Apparently, it was too overwhelming for the brothers to share a compact space with me or my baby.'Are you there?' I inquired, expecting my wolf to have awakened by now.'Ah! I didn't know what to say,' she responded, feeling guilty for her prolonged silence. We had been on the road for three hours, so the pack mansion was just around the corner.'For now, let's focus solely on our baby. Have you thought of a name?' I managed a smile despite the pain. I couldn't ignore the mistreatment awaiting me once I arrived at the mansion. But, in this moment, I wanted to dwell on finding a beautiful name for my child before gloomy thoughts took over.' Remember, Ray wanted to name his daughter Meera,' she reminded me, and suddenly, it struck me.'Huh! Meera sounds a lot like Vera. How did I miss that before?' I scoffed, turning my head to gaze out the window, my eyes welling up.'I see it now,' Zey mutter

    Zelene Sallow: "Grab a box of cereal, kids like that shit," Oswin exclaimed, reaching for a cereal box on the shelf and tossing it into the shopping cart. As soon as it landed there, I swiftly retrieved it and returned it to its original spot."She doesn't consume cereal," I countered, cradling her in my arms while he attended to the cart."How can you be so sure? You're simply fabricating information to make it seem like you know what you're talking about," he shook his head, continuing his incessant chatter. Since our arrival, he hadn't ceased talking. I began to question if there was any redeeming quality in these men."She is only one day old, incapable of ingesting such things," I gently corrected him, my words delivered in a soft murmur. It wasn't easy for me to stand beside him, as his overpowering scent invaded my nostrils."Grab those wipes," he instructed, searching for the list of necessities on his phone.I retrieved the wipes and aimlessly wandered through the aisles."I

    Zelene Sallow:"Mom!" I frowned, rising from my spot, and observed her tear-streaked face as she entered the room."My baby!" she rushed toward me for a hug, but I halted her with a single hand gesture. She looked shocked as if she couldn't fathom why I was acting this way."What are you doing here?" I inquired, glancing past her to see which of the brothers had brought her.In those few seconds, I began to wonder if they had orchestrated this visit to lift my spirits. However, it remained just a passing thought, merely my own speculation."I saw you today leaving the mall. I could hardly believe my eyes until I followed you to the mansion and asked Shane. He told me everything and let me speak to you," she replied with a smile, but her gaze shifted to Yuna, and my protective instincts surged. I swiftly positioned myself in front of my daughter, blocking her from view."Why do you want to see me now?" I inquired, furrowing my brow."Why do you seem so angry with me?" she asked, appear

    Zelene Sallow:Life had been treating us very well. I didn't want a grand public ceremony, so we waited for the next full moon to perform the markings. They had organized days to spend with me. While I would be on a date with one brother, the others would take care of Yuna."Hey! Is everyone ready?" Shane came looking for us as I dressed Yuna in a sweet pink dress. She looked like an angel. It was her first birthday, and I couldn't have been happier watching her being adored and cared for by her fathers."Oh, look at you!" Oscar rushed into the room, gasping in awe at the sight of Yuna. Shane scooped her up, and she giggled in his arms."Let me hold her," Oscar insisted, and Shane passed her over. Ray and Axel entered the room after getting ready, and their expressions mirrored those of the others."Don't think we forgot about you. We'll compliment you once we've showered our daughter with enough praise," Axel teased me, making me laugh at him before he turned his attention back to Yun

    Zelene Sallow:My heart sank as Ray tightened his arms around me, pulling me closer to his body while he reached his other hand out freely behind me. I couldn't see what was happening behind my back, but a sudden sensation of something splashing against my bare neck made me shudder and broke Ray's embrace."AHHH!" Vera's painful cry echoed through the air as Ray's knife slashed her throat before she could stab me. Ray shielded me, pushing me behind his back even though Vera could no longer pose a threat to me.Vera dropped to her knees and gurgled, her eyes blinking with difficulty but fixed on Ray's face."You------," she whispered, "for her---," her voice began to fade.As she face-planted, her body started to shudder. I shook my head as I contemplated what her death would mean for Ray."No!" I exclaimed in a shaky tone, rushing in front of Ray to hastily unbutton his shirt while he gazed at me with an astonished expression."You shouldn't have killed her," I protested, struggling t

    Zelene Sallow:"Finish her!" Vera shouted. I saw Ray narrow his eyes and raise the knife blade, ready to strike me with force. He pressed it down hard, and just as he was about to slice my neck, I managed to utter through my broken sobs, "I love you."All of a sudden, everything went quiet. Ray paused for a moment, and the hardness in his expression softened."I never stopped loving you," I whispered once more, closing my eyes, ready to meet my fate."Do it, what are you waiting for?" Vera screamed, and I braced myself for the end. But then, nothing happened. I felt the cold blade being lifted from my neck."I guess I've been waiting for her to admit her love to me," he said in his usual, soothing tone. My eyes opened in shock as I saw Vera looking at Ray with utter surprise."Ray! Baby! What are you saying? Remember what we talked about?" she said with a broken smile, trying to get closer to him while secretly cutting her palms.I didn't understand what she was doing until I remember

    Zelene Sallow:I watched as he tied my hands to the tree and then walked back to Vera. He had brought me to the woods and waited for me to regain consciousness. Now that I was awake, I was back to facing horrors.The two of them stood in front of me, Ray with a blank expression on his face and Vera with a proud smirk. The rain had blurred my vision, preventing me from seeing the disdain in their eyes as they looked at me."This is not going to help you get him," I voiced, shivering from the cold but filled with anger at the same time."He's already mine," she shrugged, showing me her bloody palms.I didn't understand the meaning behind her gesture until she clarified, "Every time my blood penetrates his mark, he becomes more and more mine.""Then what do you want from me?" I yelled, struggling to make her hear me through the heavy wind and pouring rain."Huh! Because you're never truly gone. Every time I have him, you crawl back into his life. This time, you almost made him break the

    Ray Steele:I sat her down before the council, and they signed the papers for her punishment. She hadn't really said anything but kept staring into the distance, silent tears rolling down her eyes.I didn't bother talking to her the entire time, but I did plan to give her a piece of my mind. After the council cleared the charges from Zelene's name and signed Jessica's punishment, I handcuffed her in silver and made her walk behind me to the vehicle outside.In a few days, the full moon would consume me again, and I would forget about my love for Zelene. I would once again be upset with her and dismiss any love and affection for my daughter. It was just so unfair, but I was stuck in this mess.After I sat Jessica down in the back of the vehicle, I asked her, "What did you get out of it?" She had her head tilted, and big tears were forming in her eyes."You would have ended up with Axel if you hadn't caused all this mess," I knew sooner or later Zelene would have felt the mate bond with

    Zelene Sallow:We began our journey back home in two different cars. Shane and Axel were in one car, and Axel had asked to carry Yuna, while Oscar and I were in the other.Oscar and I were the first to reach home. The rain had become so heavy that we had to rush inside instead of waiting outside for Shane and Axel's car.Once we were in the foyer, I began to pace around, glancing at the entrance for Shane and Axel and around the mansion for Ray."Ray!" Oscar called out for him, preparing to search for him, but before that could happen, Ray himself walked out."Oh my!" Oscar sighed in relief, and I echoed the sentiment."Where is Vera?" I asked instead of allowing Oscar to speak.Ray turned to look at me with a blank expression and then muttered, "she's resting in the guestroom.""I heard about Lady Jewel," Ray said with a shrug of his shoulders, "karma catches up with bad people sooner or later." Clearly, he was devoid of emotions because he wasn't himself. I couldn't even imagine how

    Zelene Sallow:"Yuna isn't here!" I screamed when I rushed into the room and found her crib empty. This was my worst nightmare coming true. We had been so preoccupied with everything else that no one had thought she would come for Yuna."We need to find her," Oscar grabbed my arm, trying to snap me out of it before I got overwhelmed by tears and despair."How could she do this to me?" I screamed, sobbing as I followed behind Oscar, who was pulling me along with him."Right now is not the time to lose our composure; we need to find her. She wouldn't have gone too far," Axel ran behind us after making a call to Shane, who was already searching for her."What did Shane say?" I asked him, stopping near the car."He said some people saw her heading towards the mountains," Axel replied, helping me get into the car without any delay.Ray didn't come with us because, clearly, Vera wouldn't allow it. Moreover, he seemed to have lost his rationality to the point of becoming Vera's puppet.We dr

The things Hans had told us were devastating for Shane.Oscar looked up from his phone while he sat in the room where she was supposed to be resting. Ray was in his room with Axel, who was trying to stay close to him to prevent any further interaction with Vera.After learning what her father had done, they were now cautious of Vera and what she might be capable of."She went to use the restroom, why?" Oscar frowned, noticing our breathlessness. Shane was visibly upset, and Oscar couldn't help but see it."Where is it?" Shane avoided Oscar and began searching the room. I had to get closer to Oscar to update him on what was happening."Hans claimed that Lady Jewel was in a consensual relationship with him," I whispered, observing Oscar's eye roll as he doubted the man. "But there's more."I watched him slowly stand up and move closer to me as Shane continued to make a mess in the room."

Both of them were struggling hard not to let their wolves take over, but it was clear they were failing miserably."I'm going to kill this jerk!" Shane yelled again when he saw Hans trying to get to his feet. I had to push Shane once more to prevent him from harming Hans any further."Do you even know who you're defending?" Axel shouted in frustration, his eyes turning red from anger."What's going on here?" Oscar stood between the brothers and me and posed the crucial question."He... he was in our mother's room... he was assaulting her," Shane yelled, exposing Hans's crime, and even I couldn't hold back a gasp."What?" I yelped, covering my mouth in shock."That's not true--" Before Hans could say another word, Oscar turned around and punched him, knocking him to the ground and rendering him unconscious."I'm so glad you guys arrived.
