Rachael's POVJake gazed at me intently. I guess he is doing his best to digest what I had just said. I placed my hands on my waist and stared into his eyes, waiting for him to say something.Suddenly, he looked away and began to laugh. Then he turned his attention back to me, still laughing and I wondered what was so funny to him, cause I did not crack a joke or say anything of that sort to him."Hold on, Rachael, are you playing pranks on me?" He asked, as the laughter slowly faded. "You're just joking, aren't you? I mean, you have to be joking.""I'm not joking at all, Jake." I spat very quickly, so he'd see the seriousness of what I had to say. "Tell me, did I give you my word that I would make you the next Alpha of crimson pack? No, I never did Jake.""No! No! No Racheal, you can't do this! Do you know what I had to go through just to get you to the position that you currently hold? YOU LYING BITCH!!" He thundered and I had to move back in fear.,"I made a deal with my father to
Justin's POVI sat on the floor with my hands on my head after Jackson had left the gym. I thought I only had Jake as my competition, and that was already too much for me.... Now, I have one more brother to contend with.My whole world seemed to be crashing as my chances of winning got increasingly slimmer. Since the three of us all wanted the same thing, there was no guarantee that the fourth guy wouldn't decide to jump in on the fun.I shook my head. I am not one to back down from a fight and I will not let anyone win."Fuck!" I yelled slamming my hands on the ground. "Hey, this doesn't change anything. You are still going to win, so what we have one more person to contend with?" Xavier said bending low besides me, staring at me with so much worry etched in his eyes. I sighed heavily getting up from the ground, "I have work to do, if I am going to win." I walked out of the gym, having one location in mind.. Racheal's room. I need to act fast. I need her to announce me as her mat
Rachael's POVI wiped my tears off hastily, going to seat on my bed while avoiding to look at Jared.I really wish Jared would go, I do not want him seeing me in such a state. I am feeling a lot of things right now, and I do not need him to pity me just the same way, Justin did. Ugh, I can't believe I let him hug me. I let the enemy see me tear up, that isn't me. *Well we already did, there's no need crying over spilled milk.* Eliana huffed. She's probably angry at me too, I am also angry at myself. "Okay.. will you talk to me? What was that all about??" Jared asked dipping himself on my bed, sitting so close to me. I could literally feel his worried eyes on me. "What happened, Rachael? Tell me." Jared proved further... "Why were you hugging Justin, what was that scene all about?""It's nothing." I sniffed. "That did not look like nothing." "Damn it Jared! I said.. I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!!" I screamed at him, getting up from the bed.. my chest heaving really hard.Then—
Rachael's POVA few days had passed and the tension in the Pack kept rising, especially amongst Justin and Jack. Unlike what I used to know them for, they seemed more divided than they had ever been.They barely spoke to one another and when they crossed paths, they stared daggers at themselves and I loved it so much. It was exactly how I expected things to be between them, and all that I could hope for was for things to be even worse. I knew it was only a matter of time too.I had woken up that morning with a slight headache as I barely got enough sleep. I kept waking up at intervals and I couldn't even tell why. Sleep had decided to make itself my enemy.I stood from the bed and went straight to the bathroom to have my bath. I had to head over to the kitchen as soon as possible, so I could supervise the chefs. Mrs Orchid was there and I knew she'd always do a great job. Nevertheless, I want to show her who's in-charge.I picked up my toothbrush and brushed my teeth, then I got into
Rachael's POVOur private plane landed in Venice Marco Polo airport and with great delight, i climb down the ladder that had be connected to the planes. I yawned, covering my mouth with my right hand still feeling the effects of the flight. It's been so long since I got on a plane.Venice was a city I had always wanted to visit for so many years. I was very little when I first saw it on a tourist magazine, and ever since.. I have always wanted to experience the pages of that magazine first-hand. "So.. we would go to the hotel first, sleep in and thenI will take you on a tour around Venice tomorrow. How does that sound." Jackson ask staring at me gleefully. "I would say lovely, except— Why can't we start the touring today?" I pout, pleading with my eyes. "Oh, I thought you would be too tired after that long ride, to want to go on a tour." Awwn how caring, except I do not need you caring."Well— I was tired, but not anymore.""Okay, if you say so— I don't see why we can't start th
Rachael's POV"Ah." I yawned opening my eyes slowly, stretching my body on the bed.Why? Why those the ceiling color looks different from what I had seen last night, I am really sure the ceilings where white but the ceiling I am staring directly at— is grey.Justin! I saw Justin last night, where is he?I sat up on the bed with speed, then I realize— I wasn't in the hotel room anymore. This doesn't look anything like the hotel room."This is definitely not the hotel room, I checked into last night." I said out loud, confirming the thoughts I had already."Where am I?" I asked myself. "How on earth did he bring me here?"Okay what do I remember—I remember being shocked that he was standing outside my hotel room door, when he should be back in crimson pack. And then, he begged me to let him in, I did and the next thing I knew.. black. It was all black.Did he drugged me? But how?Ohh— he placed a white handkerchief on my nose, I remember struggling a tad bit, but clearly it wasn't en
Rachael's POV"Justin, I had a nice dinner." I smiled heartily, surprised that I had as much fun as I did with him. "Thank you for making this happen."He beamed at me in a way that I'd never seen before. If I didn't know better, I might have thought that he was into the whole thing. Indeed, I thought so— but something in me still felt like there was nothing else to it except the whole competition."We're not done for tonight." He revealed, as my face lit up. "I still need to take you on a tour of this magnificent building, don't I?"We stood from our chairs and he stretched out his hand.. "Shall we?" He asked grinning."Yes." I smiled, taking hold of his hand. He led me back to the front of the house... "Are you ready to check out how the inside of this edifice looks?""Si," I replied, showing off my very little knowledge of the Italian language.As we walked into the building, I was so excited. I had seen a few places on my way out of the mansion earlier but nothing detailed. There
Rachael's POVJackson and I walked away from the mansion in total quietness. I don't really know why— but I was expecting him to say something to me but he didn't. He just kept on walking straight ahead.I know I didn't do anything wrong, it wasn't my choice to have Justin kidnap me, but still— why do I feel guilty, and why do I hate his silence. "Thank you for choosing to come with me." He finally broke the silence, to my own relive. "You don't have to thank me. I was only doing the right thing, you brought me here to Venice and so I am sticking with you." I replied softly.He turned around to stare at me... "I am glad you have that sentiment, cause we have one more date to go to, before we say bye bye.. to Venice." He informed me with a coy smile.I really don't think I want to go on another date, I just completed one with Justin. But— I also don't think I should say no to him. "Sure." I sighed. "Where are we going?""I guess you'll find out. Let's get into the car."He said open
Justin's Pov.I smiled contentedly, watching as the sun hit her face, bringing out her beauty. It's been 60 years, 60 years that I have been married to her, my mate. And for sixty years, we have fought, made up, stand by each other, faced it all... together. She was and still is the only woman for me. She's my forever mate."I know I'm pretty, but stop staring. It would make my husband mad." She mumbles, her eyes close."Good thing I’m your husband then." I grinned, placing kisses at every available spot in her face, moving down her neck and to her cleavage."Don't tell me you are horny, cause I'm on a vacation." She groaned in my mouth. "I don't think your body is on a vacation." I murmured, dipping my fingers into her already wet vagina."Justin. The... fuck... the kids." She moaned, as I thrust my fingers dipper into her. "You can only do one, my love. Either moan, or warn me about the kids." I mocked, staring into her eyes lazily, rubbing my finger up and down the length of he
Blackwood's PoV10 years later It was time again, just like every other night, it wouldn't miss neither would it go on a vacation for one night. "Are you guys ready? It's happening again!" My wife yelled, standing so closely to me."I have my pop corn ready." Another voice said, walking into the room through the walls.I don't know what drive me crazy more, the sword hung right above my body, the electric machine, or the fact that I am surround with not two dead people, but a thousands of them.They are all sandwiched in here, going and coming as they please. Peace? I had no peace. Every seconds, every minute, every hours, they whisper in my ear. Their dead eyes poking at me, scrutinizing my every move. If I could ask for anything in the world, it would be one hour of total silence. Just me, laying on this bed and nobody else in the room."Are you really praying for us to be gone?" My wife asked, floating right above me, "sorry, but we can't. We are here to serve you, our king."
Racheal’s POV;Six years later."Mummmmmyyyyyyyyy! Mummmmmmyyyyyy!!"I didn't need to open my eyes to know the annoying voices belong to my cute little devils. Justin and I had said we won't get married until after five years, but we did get married. Only after a year. Why?Well, I got pregnant. And because we didn't want our kids asking us why we were not married yet, and not being able to understand our explanation(the same way Jared can't), we decided to get married.I opened my eyes, groaning tiredly. "Yes, my sweet puppies, what can mummy do for you." "We were wondering if you had a talk with Rio." Nathan, my first child asked.I gave birth to twins boys, and my first child name is Nathan while my second child's name is Nicholas. "Why would I talk to your dead dog?" I asked, sitting up.Justin had brought Nathan and Nicholas a puppy, who they named Rio. Unfortunately, Rio died last week due to an accident. "Because you promised that you would talk to Rio, seeing that you hav
Racheal's Pov."Where the hell have you been Racheal, I was told you arrived hours ago." Xyla screamed at me, the moment I stepped into her room. "Calm your horses, I needed to make a quick stop somewhere." I defended, pecking her on the cheek."Is he dead?" She asked, staring at me intently."Uhm, how did you know that I stopped by there?" I asked, surprise."Because I'm your better half, and I know you. Now answer the question, is he dead?" "Surprisingly, he is not." "I thought Everett said he won't last more than six month." I shrugged, "I also thought so too, I mean— the man is in a really bad shape. Really bad one, and still... surprisingly he still alive.""So? Would you go check on him again?" "Nah. I have gotten the closure I need, I don't want to see him again. Besides, I feel fulfilled knowing he his suffering three times than any of his victim ever did. Now, all I want is too live life to the fullest with all my favorite people next to me." "Come here." She said smili
A YEAR LATER.Rachael's POV"Finally," I breathed out, as Justin's private jet fully landed and we both made our way out of it.Interlinking my arms with his, we both made our way to a black car. My sis had sent it for us."Can we make two stops, before we head to the palace?" I asked."If you think we won't be late, then sure." Justin replied, placing a kiss on my forehead."Oh, we won't. We still have a lot of time to spare. Driver, take us to the priestess house." "Yes ma'am." The driver answered, and then drove off. It didn't take long, before the car parked right outside the priestess house. Justin and I came down from the car, and then we knocked on the priestess door. One of her maid opened the door, and then asked us to wait. "Racheal, Justin. Wow, this is a lovely surprise." The priestess exclaimed, walking into the living room. I stood up with a smile on my face, "well, we were back in town, and decided to come see you." "I am honored, believe me. I don't get a lot of
Rachael's POVI opened my eyes slowly, and sat up on realizing I was in an unfamiliar room. But slowly I got to recognize the room, I was in Justin’s room. What happened?“Oh my goodness, you are awake!” That voice. It belongs to…I turned around swiftly, and my suspicion was confirmed. Annie Blackwood, she’s standing before me.“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.” I screamed, jumping off the bed, “how… why… what in the, you are dead.” I stuttered, staring at her from the other side of the room.“Wait, you can see me?” She asked, pointing at herself.“Of course I can, you are literally standing before me. And I am freaked out, really freaked out.” I muttered, trying to regulate my breathing.“How can you possibly see me, I’m a ghost. I’m dead.” “Exactly!” I exclaimed.“Wait— You can see dead people, Racheal!” She exclaims, her eyes widened.“You said what?”“I mean it all makes sense. I think you can not just only see ghost, but you can also merge with a ghost.” She divulged even further.“What?”“Ye
Rachael's POV"Get them." Blackwood ordered, and to his surprise, I started laughing. I held onto my stomach, and laughed so loudly."Stop laughing!" He growled, looking irritated. But I didn't stop, until I had my fill."Do you really think I'll make the same mistake that I've always made with you?" I asked, raising an brow. "I know you so well, Blackwood. I know very well that you're always one step ahead of me so this time around, I decided to be one step ahead of you. For your information, I didn't just make a plan. I had a plan B, just in case I needed it.""What are you talking about, slave?""Well, how about I show you instead? I believe that'll be much better," I smirked. "First, I need to get rid of some of your guards and make this a bit more of an even fight. Jessica, please..."Jessica stepped out from behind me and turned to her father who stood right next to Alpha Blackwood."Father, you don't to have support him." Jessica passed across, to her father, "you have no oblig
Rachael's POV"What do you mean by Xavier?" Jake asked, he looked as confused as the others. "Xavier can't deliver the wine to the Alpha, he's not in any way close to him.""Actually, out of everyone in this room, Xavier is the closest to the Alpha," I disclosed. "Don't you think you might be mistaken?" Jared commented, "If anyone should even deliver a bottle of wine to the Alpha, it should be Justin."I turned to Xavier and gave him a knowing look. "Would you love to tell them or should I do it myself?" I asked."Do whatever you want." He replied, in a lazy tone, shrugging his shoulders.So he doesn't care, but I will make him care."Tell us what?" Justin asked, staring at us curiously. He stared at Xavier, but Xavier looked away. "When I was kidnapped by Alpha Blackwood, he told me that he had someone among us who served as a double agent. A spy..." I revealed."So you think Xavier is the double agent?" Jackson interrupted, staring at me like I had gone mad with my presumptions."
Author's POV:Justin walked out of the cabin, ready to meet up with Jared who had asked to see him."Jared, you– Rachael." He called out in shocked. On seeing that it was Rachael who was outside waiting for him and not Jared. "Rachael, I didn't think you would be out here."She turned around and exhaled. "I asked Jared to call you." She disclosed."Why?" He asked, surprised that she would want to speak to him. After all, when she needed him the most, he wasn't there for her."Why didn't you tell me?” She asked, taking two steps towards him as he stared at her with a puzzled look on his face. “Uhm… tell you what?” He asked, although.. he had an idea of what she meant. But still, he wanted to be sure.“Why didn't you tell me that it was you who saved me from the cell that night?"Justin looked away, he was right after all. She found out, “Jared told you?” He asked, knowing Jared would be the only one capable of snitching.“Does it matter?” Racheal questioned, “I want an answer, Justin.
