LORRAINE'S POV
“We missed you.”The disgust I felt as soon as those words made it to my ears was inexplicable. They were the ones who put me in this situation, to begin with, so why did they assume I would be grateful that they showed up?Jordan walked in and lifted me off the floor. I didn't even have the strength to fight him.My resolve was long gone. They could do whatever they wanted with me. I didn't care anymore.As they walked out of the cell, my stomach twisted at the sight of dead bodies. They were just everywhere.I assumed this was a rescue mission but as we walked past the pile of bodies, I knew it wasn't.I wasn't even sure this had anything to do with me anymore. The twins didn't look bothered in the least that they had wasted so many lives.When I saw the Alpha and Luna's body, my whole being went weak. Even though they had been nothing but cruel to me, I never wished for them to be sLORRAINE'S POV“I am going to reject you both.” I meant every single word of it. Right from the minute I found out they were my mates, I always had an odd feeling about them but I played it off because I didn't think anything of it. If the moon Goddess gave them to me, it only meant they were mine, right? I forgot that sometimes, the moon Goddess pairs us with the wrong people. “You wouldn't dare,” his grip around me tightened, disregarding the wounds on my body. “You belong to us whether you like it or not, you hear that?” He growled. I let out a wince and he released his grip. “I don't care what you say, Jayden, but K wants you to know this. I decide who I belong to and if I were to choose, it would be Hector!” I hissed. He let out a mocking laugh.“Hector? You mean the one whose head I personally chopped off?” My chest tightened so hard that I felt like I was having a seizu
LORRAINE'S POVI didn't know if it would work but I just had to try. I didn't want to be marked by them. I would rather go rogue, grow old without a mate than be with them. Jayden and Jordan let out painful howls all I did was stare at them. Sure I felt a slight pain from the snapping of the bond but my wolf was in no significant pain. Which was very strange. “What have you done?!” Alpha Gordon growled and when the dagger in his hand came in sight, I panicked. It had a red stone on it, just like the collar he made me wear. I was now certain that something beyond mating was going on here.“What are you doing with a dagger?” My voice cracked, betraying the turmoil I felt inside. He slapped me across the face. “You filthy thing! You have the audacity to reject my sons after all the trouble you caused,” he spat. I didn't know why the rejection affected the twins that much but I was pretty f
LORRAINE'S POVOnce again, my wolf took over, pushing me to the back of my mind and dealt with Alpha Gordan.By the time I opened my eyes, Gordon was a bleeding mess. I picked the dagger and stalked towards him. “No… no please… you can't do this…” he pleaded and my eyes darkened. “You think I can't?” “No, that's not what I meant. I know you can but please spare me. We can talk this out,” he pleaded. “There is no need for you to escalate this.” “Escalate this? Did I hear you right?” I fired. “You murdered my family, wiped out an entire pack then tried to kill me to end it all and you say I'm escalating things?” He pushed himself backwards as I approached him. Considering how mouthy and powerful claimed to be. This was rather disgraceful. And I was going to end him. I increased my pace and walked past him. He probably thought I was going to spare him because he let out a sigh of relief. His eyes bulged when I lifted his head from behind.“This is an easy way out of what you des
LORRAINE'S POVI returned to Werewolf High.Yes, it was weird since I was Alpha now but no one knew that. They were surprised to see me since I hadn't been in school for a while, and the twins,s, t, too, were nowhere to be found.It made me wonder where they had gone too. I still didn't fully forgive them but I did hope they found a place for them. Living as rogues was going to be tough but I couldn't take them back. They had to be punished for Chloe's death whether it was intentional or not. Grace and Annabelle, however, had no clue what was going on. Most of the students didn't, anyways. Grace slammed her fists on my desk and I looked up with a sigh. “Isn't it too early to start trouble? Don't you have better things to do?” I asked. Surprisingly, the class chuckled and her face went red.“Where are the twins?” She demanded. “You know where they live, don't you? You know their father, you know everything about them. Why don't you find them?” I huffed. “You little…!” She raise
GAZELLE'S POV Wolverine academy. A breeding house for strays and rogues. It harbored the worst kind of criminals. Murderers, thieves, psychopaths, every possible thing you can think of. Contrary to its name, it wasn't a school or an academic institution. It was where the weak were forced to become strong, and the strong became stronger. It was just a place that protected us from being alone and unsafe. A place that provided us with food, shelter, and, dare I say, family. Six years in the academy and it would be decided whether you were fit to belong to the pack or to be cast out to create space for others. It wasn't for the faint-hearted. Certainly not for a wolf like me. I was an omega wolf who lived in the woods all her life with no family or friends. I practically raised myself, as absurd as that may sound and two months ago, during a raid, I was caught in the middle of a crossfire and brought here. I hated the place. Imagine being a misfit in a school f
GAZELLE'S POVI didn't know what the Terrors were planning to do to me but I knew I would never forget it. No one had ever entered their suite before and being the first, I knew I wouldn't come out the same. The room was three times larger than any of the other rooms I had seen and it wasn't even in the residential building. It was a secluded area in a building by the poolside. The pool was restricted for everyone, only the Terrors used it. And they often threw exclusive pool parties. Less than one per cent of Wolverine High were invited. Once we were inside the room, Jeremy set his camera. My heart pounded against my chest. Whatever they were planning was going to ruin my invisibility in Wolverine Academy. It was going to be seriously humiliating. “Tell us, petite, what you are going to do for us today,” he said. The twins turned to him as he adjusted the tripod. “Are you going live?” “Yes, why?” He asked. “Take it off,” Jordan instructed and Jeremy frowned.“Why?” “Priv
GAZELLE'S POVJust when I thought my life was going to be over, I was pulled out of the water.I felt a heavy pressure on my chest and coughed out water. More pressure and I was spitting in more water than I even realized. My eyes were blurry from the pool water and tears. “Welcome back, tilapia. Looks like you're not very familiar with the water, huh?” Jeremy's mocking tone triggered something in me. “Look, everyone, the Zilli is out and wait…” his eyes shifted to me and amusement flashed in them. “Oh, look, our little fish is angry. What are you going to do to me, now?” I had never felt so angry in my life. Tears burned every side of my eyes and my knuckles were turning white from so much clenching. “Do you feel powerful?” The words fell off my lips before I could stop it. I was putting myself in more trouble but I didn't care. “Did it feel the emptiness inside you?” His expression went sour immediately, and I could see the anger building up, but I didn't stop there. “You alm
GAZELLE’S POV Life in Wolverine had never been more unbearable. Every time I thought I had been worse, situations came up to prove that I hadn't even started. Usually, I would go to bed with a smile on my face, but now I just wanted the day to be over. The twins hadn't sent for me since they declared me their slave, an,d I wondered why. Not that I was looking forward to serving them or anything; it was just that I felt like I would be safer if I trailed behind them with their properties in my hand. No one would want to attack me when they saw that. They would have to choose between getting popular and losing their head. My stomach grumbled loudly and I rolled over. This was a very wrong time to feel hungry. I had been avoiding the cafeteria for days because I knew the massive embarrassment I would get if I dared step foot in there. It's crazy how, once upon a time, I imagined surviving six years in this hell hole. Now, it was a miracle to even survive a day. My stomach
JAYDEN'S POV I didn't bother with waiting for them to snap into action, I was beyond confident that my demands would always be met so I turned on my heels and went in the opposite direction of the open doorway of the room. As expected, the footsteps of the two women escorted me down the stairs and all the way to our suite. When Jeremy came to me fuming that Jordan was beginning to act stupid I hadn't known how to react so I had done the only logical thing, go after my twin. "Jayden, I..." Gwen's annoying voice took over the space in my head as she tried to give me an excuse of some sort. "Can you do yourself a favor and keep your mouth shut, Gwen? I would ask you to speak when I have absolutely no choice but to listen to your annoying voice." That shut her up pretty quickly. My face pulled up into a smile as silence stretched between us all the way to the suite. "What the fuck is she doing here, Jayden? I take it that you intend to punish her?" Jeremy still sounded terribl
GAZELLE'S POV I either didn't hear right or I heard completely wrong. Did Jordan just say he would have one of the Girlfriends bring dinner up to my room? My eyes moved up to meet his in obvious shock, and I noticed he wasn't even staring at me. He was too busy glaring at Sarah, who looked just about ready to have the earth swallow her up, to pay any attention other than the verbal acknowledgement that left me in shock. "What the hell, Jordan?! Are you fucking this pig? Is that why you care so much about her? I would've thought you had better taste than that, being Jayden's brother and all." Sarah's voice is high pitched and ringing with enough disbelief. Just as much as I felt up until het words registered in my skull. What? What was it with everyone and making disgusting assumptions today? Jordan's gaze finally landed on mine and his glare turned icier. I could totally see how he would be pissed off over the fact that people are now assuming he's having... eww with me.
JORDAN'S POV I was feeling a lot of different emotions, all of them in the negative. Gazelle's presence beside was doing a lot more than I expected it could to keep me calm and collected. The spoon in my hand lifted oh so slowly up into my mouth, carrying with it ice-cream that should be divine, but just tasted like sawdust. "What are you guys doing in here?" Jeremy's voice carried through the semi-open doorway. We both looked up at the sound of his voice, one of us frozen in her place. I glanced at her in a very brief way but she didn't even look back, her eyes were pinned on him as he strolled into the room. "Nothing that should concern you." My voice held a finality that would get anyone else to back off, but this was Jeremy I was speaking about. His face morphed into a huge smile. "Ah. You could've invited me to join in the fun." His eyes flickered between Gazelle and me, a knowing smile on his face. I almost gagged at the suggestion he was making. "Gross. Get your s
GAZELLE'S POV After what happened the previous night, I didn't think that I would want to attend another ball night. The plan was to remain in my bed and see Jenna later in the evening since she wasn't ready to see me this morning. But my little rest was caught short as I was sent a reminder of my punishment. I got off the bed dutifully and changed into a loose fitting outfit. I got my cleaning equipment and began my dirt. I cleaned up my dorm and thankfully, some cleaners had already cleaned the girlfriend's floor so I didn't have to deal with the obnoxious girls. The boys dorm was already cleaned so all I had to do was clean the surroundings and the boyfriend's suite. I took my time to clean because I didn't want them around when I was cleaning. By the time I was done with half of Wolverine, the ball had already begun and wolves were beginning to arrive. I spent one more hour cleaning before heading to the Boyfriends suite. There was no one at home which was a
GAZELLES’S POV When she was talking about two halls, I should have asked her how she knew they were two. The fact that I was in the hall with a crowd of anticipating people and a big projector was at the front. I could see an excited Jenna run into the hall only for it to be slammed immediately. On meeting the empty hall, I could see the confusion and panic on her face. The crowd already started chuckling but I was worried for her. She ran to the door, trying to get it open but it wasn’t working. My heart was drumming in my chest. What were they going to do to her? “Let me out!” She yelled and I decided I was done watching. I was going to go out there and help her but just as I stood, the next thing on the screen made me freeze. There were bees. Like actual bees. It was like they were released from their hive or something. I couldn’t bring myself to move. This was like the most evil thing I had ever seen. As expected, Jenna panicked and began banging heavily against
JEREMY She looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here, and confusion was drawn on her face like a tattoo. "This is a prank." She stated with a shake of her head. "Please, I promise to stay out of everything that relates with the Terrors or the Girlfriends." I almost laughed out loud at the panic in her voice, but I refrained and kept a straight face instead. "I would've thought you had more balls than that, but I guess I was wrong." There was no way I was going to try to make an ally out of someone who was walking, breathing cowardice. If she didn't want any bit of revenge then so be it. "Wait!" She called out to stop me as I walked away from her. I turned back to face her, my eyebrows arched in silent question. "What do you want?" "I already told you what I want, Gwen. You're either brave enough to be a part of it or you're not." My gaze trailed over her from head to toe. "And something tells me you're on the side of not." "How do I know that you're not mislead
JEREMY'S POV I was flipping pissed, my mood was raw on the voltages of anger I had been tapped high on. I was going to fucking kill Jordan. "You couldn't have fucking taken my side? You were okay with watching your psycho brother kill me?" I swore at Jayden. "Maybe if you stopped riling him up, you wouldn't even need saving in the first place." He threw back at me angrily. "I didn't freaking need saving. I just didn't want to take the killing blow." I defended myself. For whatever bullshit reason I really hadn't wanted to kill Jordan. I was hoping that he would come to his senses eventually and all of that would be over, but I guess I was wrong. That bastard is more animal than he is human. "What the hell even happened? I was out for all of ten minutes and next thing you're at each other's throats?" He pushed his hand through his hair in frustration and then turned to face me a second time. "What did you say to him?" "Of course it was me who started it. No way your pre
JEREMY'S POV I couldn't possibly be imagining this. This place was deserted to a very large extent. Something was most definitely up. Every single person that had walked past us or even peeked through their windows at us since we strolled by casually had been either female or child. It was Jayden that finally responded to my comment. "No, it's not just your mind. This is actually a space dominated by anything other than the male wolves." Jordan made a show of sniffing the air. "There's no single scent of a male wolf within a 50 mile radius of this place." "What do you think could be going on?" I asked. This was seriously crazy. There was no way in hell that all of the men in the pack had just decided to step out on the same day. Especially not after the number of traps we'd had to get past on our way here. "I think there was more than one trap left waiting for us." Jayden didn't sound too pleased by that possibility. Not that I could blame him, I wasn't pleased by it ei
JORDAN'S POV "It's quite easy to make demands like that when you're sitting safe behind an office desk, isn't it?" I spat out before I could stop myself. Something about the woman made me want to vomit. She irritated the fuck out of me and I was always fighting the urge to simply wring her throat with my bare hands. "Excuse you?" Her eyes were oozing fire as she trained them on me. "There's just three of us. And yet we're constantly being pitted against a full army of wolves by ourselves." "You're Alphas." She deadpanned like that could justify everything in the world. "Doesn't make us infallible." I bit back. "Maybe if the board could be a little bit more considerate about the kinds of missions we were sent on, we wouldn't have a revenge on our hands now." My tone was becoming a lot more disrespectful with each word that came out of my mouth and I noticed my brother stiffen beside me. One of his palms dropped on my thighs, calming me down without words. As expected,
