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:Ray led me to the waiting room, where he had been strolling around carefree, emitting little chuckles before finally turning to face me."So, everyone was right about you," he remarked, causing a twitch in my body. I couldn't forget the night he abandoned me in the hotel to be with his best friend.With all my memories flooding back, I couldn't help but recall how he used to dismiss my concerns whenever I questioned his closeness to Vera.He held the ring on his finger, staring at it intently. "I designed it for you, so I'm its owner. Even after Oscar gave you so much, you decided to be greedy and come here to sell this," he said, his voice deep, as if attempting to mask his true emotions in that moment.However, I remained silent, not uttering a word."And you're shamelessly standing here with no excuse?" I was right. He wanted me to beg for his forgiveness or provide a pile of explanations, but I did neither.Initially, I felt guilty, but when Vera told me that he had
Shane Cage:"Mmm!" As our lips intertwined, she moaned with desire while I deepened the kiss, guiding her through the hallway. The urgency to reach the bedroom intensified, both of us eager to continue what had begun at the club.It was impossible to resist the allure of this blue-haired girl nursing her drink in the club. She stood out among everyone. Compelled by an irresistible attraction, I initiated a conversation with her. However, my focus wavered, and her words became background noise as I was distracted by her big breasts on the display.With temptation as my guide, I lifted her effortlessly and escorted her to my car, a realization dawning on me only later that my mother had strictly forbidden bringing any of my one-night stands home. At the moment, however, consequences were momentarily forgotten.Leading her into my home, I unfastened her bra, maintaining an unbroken kiss as I guided her towards the guest bedroom at the end of the foyer."Ahh! I want you to fuck me with yo
Zelene Sallow:I don't know how the night passed, as I kept drifting in and out of sleep. However, I noticed that Axel never left my side. It was strange because the brothers typically didn't care about me at all, or perhaps he was genuinely a responsible person.In the morning, when I was discharged, he escorted me to his car without insisting that I sit in the backseat, once again contradicting his brothers' actions. They seemed to dread being seen with me."How are you feeling now?" he asked, causing me to turn and notice how tired he looked from staying awake by my side."I'm feeling much better now," I replied softly."May I ask what you gained from all of this?" It was a random question, and I couldn't understand if he was referring to my illness or my overall situation."If you could be more specific, I would be able to answer you properly," I sighed, expecting another difficult question."That night! Why did you do it?" he asked confidently, making me stare at his face. "Did y
Zelene Sallow:Ever since Lady Jewel made the announcement that her sons would be sharing me, I've been feeling quite unsettled. I knew that she wouldn't make such a decision without careful consideration."Promise me you won't let them lay a finger on you," my mom had been freaking out ever since she found out that I would be sleeping in the brothers' room from now on. It has been just over a week since Lady Jewel's announcement, and it seemed like everyone had forgotten about it. Or so I thought.In the past few days, Lady Jewel had been scheduling numerous meetings with her sons, trying to get everything settled as quickly as possible. I can only assume that she had a serious talk with her sons before I was informed that I would be moving into their rooms starting tonight."Mom, no!" I turned to her and replied in an exhausted tone. She had been constantly reminding me of how cruel they had been to me, urging me not to let my guard down.I understand that she's just trying to prote
Vera Rudd:I'm not sure when I lost consciousness, but it was probably for the best. I couldn't bear to stand there and face that woman with her child clinging to her body.I gradually regained consciousness after what felt like hours, finding myself in my own home. As I opened my eyes, the gray walls of my room greeted me."He betrayed me," I sniffled, clutching the sheet tightly and huddling to the side as silent tears streamed down my face.It was so unjust. Why did she have to come back?"No! I won't let her have him. He belongs to me. I'm the only one who can make him happy," I refused to accept her return. That woman was merely an omega. How on earth did she manage to capture an alpha king?I jumped out of bed and glanced at my reflection in the mirror, hastily fixing my hair as tears continued to well up in my eyes. I had to speak to my father and persuade him to convince Lady Jewel to kick her out once again. And this time, to tear her into pieces so that she'd never return.J
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
Zelene Sallow:"Where's Mom?" Shane and I rushed upstairs to find the cellphone Hans had mentioned. 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."
Zelene Sallow:"Shane, stop it!" I yelled as I pushed him away from Hans, who couldn't even stand on his feet now.Shane was enraged, and so was Axel. 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.
