*****Alpha Xander's POV****

I turned around, startled to find the same cloaked man standing with his back to me. It was as if I hadn't moved an inch from the spot where I had started my journey, desperately seeking a door that could transport me back home.

Suddenly, the man let out a sinister laugh that reverberated through the air. Fear took hold of me, and I could feel my legs trembling uncontrollably. I silently prayed for morning to come, hoping it would alleviate some of my terror.

"Don't be deceived into thinking morning will arrive," he sneered, slowly turning around to face me. The mere thought of seeing his face filled me with dread, as I anticipated a truly horrifying sight.

To my surprise, there was no face to be seen, only an empty cloak that seemed ethereal, like a ghostly apparition. Overwhelmed, I succumbed to unconsciousness, and when I came to, I had to wipe the sleep from my eyes.

The darkness persisted, serving as a grim reminder of the seriousness of my predicament

    *****CIARA’S POV***I knew that Alpha Darius took my matter seriously, and that was one of the things that speeded up my progress in getting Xander and gaining ground.“I am fine. Talk to you later, I have work to do soon, and I need as much rest as I can get.” I said, and tried my best to not sound hurt.“Alright, love. Take care of yourself and make sure you observe rest when you ought to. And remember, you can always come home to get the best rest you need.” He said, sounding relieved.I hung up, and my pain increased again, but this time, my strength wasn’t back, so I could not abate the pain for a while. Well, the joy of having what I planned, work, made me endure the pain for as long as I could.#Flashback#“I have a plan and I need you to work along with it.” I said, looking around, trying to be alert, as it would be bad if anyone found me lurking around here.“What plan?” The witch asked, looking at me, still with no expression on her face.“Xander would want to see Laura beca

    “Alright. I'll have that, thank you.” The first ghost said as he stretched his hands to my neck and dragged a necklace on my neck as it cut.I let out a light, pained growl as the necklace gave me a sting as it was dragged from my neck.To my surprise, the bottle was the necklace pendant. It appeared on my neck in the form of a necklace, and pendant. I was overjoyed that I was able to get the teardrop for the ghost. But as the first ghost sat down, he changed into an ugly creature.It had an oblong head with short tentacles all around its face and head, leaving space for only the ugly eyes, which looked rotten. The body was like that of a big octopus with long tentacles. My fangs came out in defense as I was filled with horror and fear gripped me as it opened its mouth, which was filled with tiny jam-packed teeth and a black fork tongue.“Move to the next ghost, or I'll eat you up. Werewolves’ meat tastes the best, you know.” The first ghost, threatened as the tiny teardrop went into

    *****ALPHA XANDER’S POV****"Welcome back," the second ghost said, a hint of excitement in her voice. "You're intelligent, figuring it out without my hint, which you couldn't decipher."She extended her hand towards me, and I reluctantly handed her the eyeball she had requested. She giggled and swallowed it, transforming into a terrifying octopus in the blink of an eye. Its menacing tentacles writhed everywhere, except where I stood. The sheer size of the creature overwhelmed me with fear, and I struggled to maintain eye contact."Very good. Now, you may proceed to the next ghost," she instructed, her voice taking on a strange, oinky quality.I approached the next ghost, beads of sweat forming on my brow, hoping this task wouldn't prove too challenging. The ghost locked eyes with me and flashed a mischievous smile."All I require now is an ice cream from your world. It must come from those who sell on the roadside or streets, at an ice cream stand.

At this point, I could feel my death was near, and it was going to hurt if my plans didn’t work according to the way it was set. I needed to wrap Xander around me, there was no way I would let him go.Suddenly, Xander appeared and the joy that overwhelmed me, reduced the pain I was feeling. He was back with the antidote and that meant joy for me.“Hey, hey. I’m here with the antidote, hang on.” He said, as he tried to shake me because I was already feeling like I could pass out at any time soon.“You’re back.” I said, weakly.He opened up my belly and then poured the antidote on the wounded part. This was even more excruciating than the pain I felt when the wound was eating me up, I couldn’t help but scream out loud. Xander quickly covered my mouth. I got tired of it, so I bit his hand as hard as I could and then as he removed his hand, I pull

I ought to be a bit relieved now, I really do not know why it is still this intense.” She said, looking pale.I bit my lips, then opened her top and saw the wound on her stomach was still eating her up. There were no changes at all, and It was still as it was, before. Then I dashed out of her room and went straight to the dungeon.“Hey! Are you playing tricks on me? The antidote hasn’t worked one bit. Are you certain that it is the right antidote for her ailment because even when she wanted to use it at first, she went through pain.” I fired at her, with my right eyebrow, raised.Then she stood up and looked at me, calmly, with no expression on her face.“The only thing that is powerful enough to fight the antidote, is a broken heart. I guess she is broken-hearted at the moment, so the wound will still eat her until she dies.” She explained, then blinked twice.“What! Broken-heart

Has he left already?Then I heard the door open, and I closed my eyes, acting as if I were asleep.“You are awake already.” Xander said, walking towards me.I opened my right eye. I guess he knew that I was awake already, then I sat up and to my surprise, he was with a tray of toast and pineapple juice.“Good morning.” He said to me as he dropped the tray on my side table.“Good morning.” I smiled at him.“Let me check your wounds.” He said as he put up the night gown I wore.“How is it now?” I asked out of curiosity.“It looks much better. So, it means you aren’t feeling much pain anymore, right?”“Yes, I feel a bit better.”“Alright then. Have your breakfast. I will be leaving on a business trip that will last for two days.

    ****ALPHA XANDER’S POV**** After the meeting with Alpha Andrews, I felt a bit relieved as I had already achieved one of the goals that was on my list. This business trip lasted just a day, but I planned two days, so I would rest and enjoy the next day. I wanted to be away from the problems at home and Ciara, which reminded me of how miserable I felt that Laura wasn’t here. I laid on the hotel bed, staring at the ceiling, then I picked up my phone to text Ciara. “Hey, how are you feeling? I was really busy today.” I dropped my phone, then continued staring at the ceiling until a minute after, when I got a reply from Ciara. “I’m feeling better. I hope the business you went for is taking a progressive path?” “Yeah.” Then I got a call from her. I was reluctant to answer the call, but she knew I wasn’t asleep, and that could only make her have second thoughts. “I know you are probably getting ready to go to bed right now, but I need you to get to the balcony or wherever would mak

    *****Laura's POV****I can't stop thinking about what Laura had said to me. It was bad enough that she's about to get married to Xander, and she's thinking of making my life miserable. And earlier, I heard the question she asked. It can't be that she's planning to get rid of me. No way! I can't remain like this. If I really want to get her out of the hellhole I could myself, then I'll have to try harder. I can't wait for Alpha Darius to get back to his senses. Maybe before he dies, I will be long dead, at the rate Ciara was going. I cannot die now. I must find a way to get out of here as soon as possible. I just cannot die now, no matter what happens. I left the bed where I had earlier laid. I looked up at the window, which was far beyond my reach. Impossible. I'm not a weak wolf. I'm the white wolf, so why should I subject myself to be tortured by a witch who doesn't deserve it. Enough of the suffering. I don't care if she gets married to Xander a thousand times.

The destruction caused by my disappearance was unimaginable, but then, I'm glad the pack is yet again stable.While I was in my room, preparing for my Luna duties, I suddenly heard a knock on the door. “Please come in, Sarah,” I said without having to look at the door to see who it was. Sarah walked into the room, looking quite panicked. I creased my brow in a frown, wondering why she was looking that way. “What's happening, Sarah?”“The Alpha requests your presence in the pack hall, as there's something you must see.”I raised an instant brow and wondered what it could be. Since the maid had already informed me, it was better to go and find out what it really was, myself. Without wasting time, I stood up from my chair and headed out of my room quickly. The moment I approached the pack hall where meetings were conducted, I couldn't help but feel something Familiar and

I took my gaze downwards, but there was no sign of pregnancy. Silly me, what was I expecting? It's been years and I still don't expect her to be pregnant still, unless I'm expecting to see her carry another man's child. Alpha Dominique and the rest of the men had left, leaving just me and Laura. “Why are you here?” I heard her ask. I was so lost in her eyes that I didn't realize she was actually asking me a question. “Are you going to keep staring at me or will you answer my question?”“Laura, my love. I thought you died.”“What are you doing here?”I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. Where should I start from? I never expected that I would actually see her here. When I opened my eyes, I could see her staring at me curiously and obviously waiting for an answer. “I wanted to end it all. I thought I would never see you again, and so I

    ***Xander's POV***Having made up my mind to sacrifice myself for the safety of my pack I ventured to Alpha Dominique's pack with all determination. While I drove down to the pack, I made sure there were no weapons with me because I know Alpha Dominique, and that is the fact that he respects sincerity. I'm certain that when he sees my sincerity, he would surely grant me that which I seek. That is what I wish, and I hope he would actually grant me that which I truly seek from him. Just as I had expected, the moment I got to Alpha Dominique's pack, I was met by his men, but they dared not approach. I believe they thought that I had decided to come take my revenge. “Alpha Xander, you're far from your pack. Are you really here to launch an attack on us?”The man whom I recognized as Dominique's beta asked. “I'm not here for an attack, but rather, in here to see your Alpha.”They all looked at me skeptically. I could tell that they didn't believe my words. “You don't have to be scared

    ***Laura's POV***Since I didn't want to waste that much time, I know I should go straight to the point.“Honey, where have you been?”My mom asked, while my dad stared at me curiously. I heaved a long sigh and told them everything that had happened.“Oh no! That evil witch! I swear I'm going to have her killed for what she did to my daughter!” My mom lashed out. I was strongly baffled because this was my first time seeing my mom that mad. I've never seen her get mad at anyone before.“I knew it! This is why I would forever Blake Alpha Xander. It was all his fault. If only he hadn't involved himself with that witch, all of this wouldn't have happened.”“You're all right. Presently, there's no one who wants her dead like I do. I want her to pay for what she's done, not just to me, but for causing the packs to go to war.”My mom and dad both stared at me with a surprised expression.“What? You know what happened here?” My dad inquired, looking quite taken aback.“Well, both packs are wi

That's why I think it's best that you really put an end to the battle. It has lingered for far too long“I know that's why I'm trying my best to put it to an end. I'm afraid that if this continues, both Alpha will end up killing one another. And I will never forgive myself if that happens“I understand you. You should take care of yourself and stay safe“I will.

I walked up to him with fury burning in my eyes. “What do you think would happen? If we can't protect the pack border? I'm not worried about myself, but what about the pack members? Do you think Alpha Dominique would care about the pack members? All he wants is his daughter!”“I know Alpha, why don't we come to an agreement with Alpha and try searching for Luna once more?”“You think I'm not searching for her? Alpha Dominique isn't giving me time to search for Luna.”“Fuck! This is all the faults of Miss Ciara. Why did she have to come up with such devious Plans?”“This isn't the time to think about what Ciara did. Tell me, have you heard about the men I asked you to send you to keep a track on her?”“Yes Alpha, but it seems Miss Ciara had gone into hiding.”“What? How the hell did she get away f

    ***Laura's POV***I instantly felt weak on my knees the moment Alpha Darius told me about the Battle between Xander and my dad. So, the fight has been because of me. I can't imagine what they must have lost during the process. This was all my fault. What should I do now? I should have told my parents I was safe earlier, and waited until Kaden was older. Just what was I thinking? How was I supposed to revolve the issue on ground? What am I going to do now? This is all my fault! Shit!“Uhm, Laura, I know how you must feel. But you have to be brave yourself. I think the best thing to do is if you do not want this war to continue, then it is time to put a stop to it. Immediately, I raised my head up and faced Darius. “Tell me, how do I bring this to a stop?”Darius stared into my eyes as if I had said something strange. “Did you really mean it when you said you want to bring a stop to this?”“Of course, I mean it. I can't let them continue on this bloodbath, or can I?”“This is good,

    **Laura's POV**While at home, Mrs. Prisca and I made dinner together. Alpha Darius dropped by and since he didn't tell us beforehand, we didn't make preparations for his coming. “Darius, what's happening at the pack? You seem quite busy recently.”“I'm sorry mom, I know I should have come home at the time I promised. But yea, you're right. I've been quite busy dealing with pack matters that I could hardly even have time for myself.”“Oh, dear, they must have been really stressed. Just what exactly are you busy about? The business perhaps?”“Well, if it has anything to do with the business, that would be quite understandable. It's about the battle between two packs that is unending. So many things have been destroyed, and yet it doesn't seem like it will ever come to an end,” Darius explained. I paused at that moment, wondering why there are two packs in each other's throats for years and I couldn't help but wonder what they are truly fighting about and if it's worth fighting for an

If it weren't for your discerning eye, I'm sure I would have taken my life, some months ago, thinking I was barren and wouldn't be able to have my child.”“Oh, come on, it's not because of me at all. I just did what I could.”“Exactly. All you had to do was touch my stomach and make it known to me that I was actually with child, and to this very moment, I can't even begin to tell you just how happy I am that I didn't change my mind about you. Maybe things would have taken a different turn for me. Or better yet, perhaps I would have lost my child due to my ignorance.”“And I'm still thankful that you chose to trust me, and today we'll be celebrating your safe delivery any moment from now,” I said with a smile splattered on my face.”“Oh, thank you so much!”As
