She ran to the living room, but she didn't find anyone there. "Has he gone to work? No, it's still early." She said to herself, looking up the stairs. "Should I go to his room?" She thought, but she remembered what brought her into trouble. He could kill her if she dared knock on his door.The nurse said as she walked down the stairs and walked towards her. "Ma'am, you need to come back to the room.""I'm sorry. I just need to see the Alpha real quick." She said, but the nurse wasn't ready to hear her out. She knew the consequences of what the doctor, who would soon be there, would do to her if they found the patient not receiving treatment. Amelia also wasn't ready to listen to her, causing the both of them to argue loudly with each other."What the hell is going on here?" They both stopped immediately when they heard the stern voice and looked up to see him walking down the stairs with his assistant behind him. He was surprised to see her already up. He looked at her, examining her
He walked into the tall building of the flea corporation, built with beautiful glass walls. The employees who met him on the way greeted him with a bow, but he didn't reply; he just walked towards the special elevator for only the president and vice president with his assistant behind him."Is Jason coming today?" He asked as he stepped into the elevator, and his assistant pressed the last floor button. "I don't think so, sir.""That will make it a week now, right?" He asked again, to which his assistant nodded. Another problem in his life was his brother. He is the vice president, but he only comes to the office once in a while, making a lot of work for him to do.And no matter how much he talked to him and persuaded him, he just didn't listen. He wished Liam could have gone into business instead of studying medicine. "Remind me we're going to his house today. And don't contact him about it." He said.The elevator opened, and they both stepped out. Only a few people work on the last
Her treatment was stopped, and the nurse left the house. She was angry as she accepted her fate and went to do her chore of cleaning his room. "I should be planning my life right now, but no. I'm here scrubbing toilets." She complained loudly as she cleaned. She didn't even know whether she was angry at herself or him.Suddenly, she dropped the brush and stood up to look at herself through the bathroom mirror. She removed the scarf she had used to cover the mark on her. "You shouldn't have signed that contract, Amelia. You wouldn't have ended up like this." She said to herself, rubbing the mark as if to wipe it off."He would have killed my family if I hadn't." She sighed. "But how can I persuade him? Begging can't do it again, especially when I can't even control the anger happening to me lately." She thought for a long time, trying to come up with any ideas to persuade him, but couldn't find anything.After cleaning, she left the room to go prepare breakfast in the kitchen. She was
"Red forest?" She asked to be sure she heard him right, to which Aiden also replied. "What's wrong? You can't go."Amelia was quiet, lost in thought. How could she venture into a forest filled with a variety of evil and poisonous plants? And the fact that some dark, evil witches reside there makes it a difficult place to survive, especially for a weak wolf like her. No human or wolf ever made it out of there alive, except the wolf, who is powerful. She would have to do it. It's her only chance. "But why would he want a plant from the red forest?" She thought. She was pushed out of her thoughts when she heard, "I guess you're not interested..."No. I'll do it." She quickly said, only to see the man with a hint of surprise on his face before he covered it with a cold expression."You only have two hours, and to be more pitiful to you, a driver will drop you at the entrance of the forest. You find your way back." He said before picking up his phone to check the time. "Your time starts n
"What do we have here?" The guy said, holding the red-haired girl's wrist with his hand while the other held her chin to give a clearer view of her face. He let go of her and also walked towards Amelia, who was already shivering in fear."Intruders in the red forest. What could have brought you to your graves?" One of the ladies asked with a smile as she walked towards both of them. She looked at the red-haired girl, who was carrying a cross bag, which she knew must contain something of theirs, and also at the other girl, who was hiding a hibiscus behind her back."Should I just shove that flower in your mouth?" She asked, looking at Amelia, who was just looking down on her knees in fear.Amelia noticed how the girl took a step forward towards her, and she couldn't help the tears that ran out of her eyes. She was helpless, and the only thing she could think of was that she would die soon. There was no way a weak, helpless wolf like her could fight the dark witch, who was staring at he
She hurried into the house in the hopes that luck was on her side and that her time didn't run out. Entering the house, she saw him in the same spot she left him. All his attention was on his phone; he didn't even look at her, despite knowing she was already standing in front of him."He's not even worried?" She thought, but didn't say a word or stress herself to think about it. She dropped the plant, covered with a small white cloth, on the table. "Here it is. I got the plant just as you wanted." She said, still looking at him as he kept scrolling through his phone without looking at her or the flower on the table.She got furious, but she was still holding everything in. She waited for about a minute until he dropped the phone beside him and finally looked at the flower. He looked at it for a while before he stood up and said, "Dispose it."Amelia was shocked. She looked at the man, who had turned her back towards her and was going towards the stairs. "Dispose it?" She couldn't beli
He sat in the hallway of the wards, looking at the door she had been rushed into an hour ago. His emotions were unreadable, as he just kept looking with his back resting on the chair and his hands placed in his pockets. Just then, Eric walked toward where he was. "Alpha," he called out.Without looking at him or moving from his position, he said, "You only had one task, Eric."Suddenly, he stood up. Touching the guy's collar lightly. "Tell me what job those guys have done." He asked, but Eric just bowed his head and apologized. "I'm sorry, Alpha."He also left him and sighed, his hand running into his hair. He didn't understand what was going on with him. He couldn't believe he sent her to the red forest, which could be the end of her life, and still tried to save her. And now that she was poisoned, he was still having a strange feeling in him. He didn't understand if it was his wolf, but he would never give any pity to her."Fuck!" He sat back down, while his assistant was just looki
In the savage's home. "Cassandra, come out now. We will be late." Gary screamed, calling out to his wife, who had been in the room for over an hour since he got ready. He straightened his suit, and his wife entered the living room. "I'm ready." She was wearing a black gown that was touching her knees, with a scarf wrapped around her neck."You're so beautiful," Gary said, kissing her cheeks, to which she also smiled before noticing the cloth he was putting on. "I told you not to wear this. It looks so old." She complained."It's not that bad." He said and was about to say something when his phone suddenly started ringing. He looked at it. "An unknown number?" "Pick it," Cassandra said."Hello," he said after he had picked up the call."Good afternoon. Am I on to Mr. Gary Savage?" He heard the voice ask, to which he also answered. "Yes. Who is this?""This is Liam Flea. And I have to tell you that your daughter has been admitted to the best-care hospital.""Liam flea?" He said, calli
It was finally evening. The person who called her told her the manager would only be around at seven in the evening, and that's only when she could see him.She got to the restaurant but still didn't meet the manager. "I'll wait for him," she said to the waiter before walking towards an empty table. The restaurant was large and beautiful, with a fresh scent of flowers in between each table. Several people were having their dinner. She didn't expect she would be accepted to work as a waiter, and it's a pretty decent pay. She can work for some time and get a small apartment.She sat down and looked around until her eyes met a glass barricade. It was another part of the restaurant that was separated from where she was. Perhaps a VIP area. The side looked much bigger, with comfy seats. And there weren't a lot of people there. She noticed a familiar figure talking on the phone."Is that not Carrie? She's the one," she said to herself as she watched her. "Did she come with Aiden?" she thou
She got back home to meet Alicia pacing in the room. "Amelia. I was worried you weren't back yet." She said as she opened the door for her."I'm sorry I got you worried," Amelia replied, as she sat down. Alicia walked back to her after closing the door and sat beside her. "So tell me. How did you know Aiden Flea?" She asked with excitement written all over her face while Amelia just stared at her, surprised. "Aiden Flea?" She asked."Yes. Wasn't he the one who came to get you last night? Gosh! He's so hot. His voice and the way he carried you in his arms, girl." Alicia said, fanning her face as she talked, but when she realized Amelia was just looking at her weirdly, she controlled herself. "Sorry. I got carried away." She smiled, to which Amelia also chuckled.She knew she must have seen him last night when he came to get her. But why would he carry her in his arms in front of everyone? She couldn't even remember a thing about what happened. I... He... He was my boss." She stuttere
He needed a place for her to rest and sober up, and his house wasn't a choice as it was occupied.He called Eric to book a hotel suite for him nearby, which he did. Eric sent him details of the hotel, and he drove there. She was already sleeping when he got there. He went to her side and carried her in his arms as he entered the hotel.She was in his arms until he got to the room. He walked to the bedroom and placed her carefully on the bed. "Gosh. I wonder how much she drank." He sighed as he stared at her flushed face.He reduced the brightness of the room for her to sleep well, but it was not so dark that he couldn't see. He left to go have a shower. He wished she could also take a bath so she could sleep well, but he couldn't touch her, especially when she was not in her right senses.He stood under the cold shower for about half an hour, reminiscing about what had happened. He was thankful he got there on time. He couldn't wonder what could have happened to her if he arrived late
She got back home. Her thoughts had diverted from her priority of job finding. She couldn't unsee what she saw at the restaurant. He got her food for her cravings. They looked so happy together. The thought of it only made her want to cry. She fell for him, but he didn't have any feelings harbored for her. She thought so highly of herself. "But why make her feel special? He got her movie tickets. He worries about her. And he... he kissed her. Was it all a lie? He couldn't even think of her once. It's only been two days." She thought.Tears fell out of her eyes as she thought about him. It got worse when Alicia walked in after coming back from class. "What's wrong, Amelia?" She ran towards her, but Amelia's cries increased. "I... I fell..."Where did you fall?" Alicia asked. She only heard brief words because of her stutters from her loud crying."I... fell for him... I shouldn't have. He has a mate. And she's pregnant." She cried loudly. Alicia pulled her into a hug. She didn't unde
She went back to Alicia's house. She had made sure she cleaned her face and tears to avoid suspicions from Alicia. "I've been waiting for you. I made breakfast already, but I ate when you didn't come on time. You can make something for yourself. Juice is in the fridge." Alicia said. She sat in the sitting room, watching a movie, when Amelia entered. "Thank you. Can I talk to you? I need your help," Amelia said. She was less bothered about the food. She wasn't even feeling hungry. "What is it?" Alicia paused what she was watching and asked."Can... I stay with you for a week or two. I'll get a job and move out before you know it." She gawked at her, hoping she would accept. It took a lot of confidence for her to say that."I even thought it was something serious. Of course, you can stay over." Alicia said with a chuckle. "Thank you so much. I appreciate it." Amelia smiled while Alicia just shook her head. "Go and make your breakfast."She only drank half a glass of juice and two pan
"Stop!" Vera said, still sitting in her seat. "No one will leave until the matter is solved, and the meeting is concluded." She looked like she was talking to Amelia because her gaze was on her."I know what's going on here. No one can determine my mate." He said, looking at his mother with no emotions. Vera stood up. She looked angry, so also was Aiden. "We can't, but we can choose our Luna." Vera looked at the elders. "Begin.""Mother." Liam walked towards her to calm her down, but the woman's anger was more than that. "Stay out of this, Liam."Aiden kept looking at his mother. He finally let go of Amelia when she pulled her hand away from him. She walked to where she was before, while Aiden just stood where he was.The elders looked at themselves and took that as an opportunity to continue. "In no history, has it been heard that an alpha has two mates. Only a Luna can be selected. And today, we're gathered here to rectify that." One of the elders spoke."Yes. They both have the ma
She had been awake all morning. She couldn't get a good night's sleep because she couldn't stop thinking about last night. She had to hold everything in and pretend to smile in front of Alicia, even though she knew Alicia suspected something was wrong with her.She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Alicia had woken up and left the room, but she pretended she was still asleep.She was still in thought when the door opened and Alicia walked in. "Good morning," Alicia said. It was too late to pretend.She rose and greeted her back with a smile. "Good morning.""Are you okay?" She heard Alicia ask suddenly, which surprised her."I'm fine," Amelia replied with a smile, but it only seemed Alicia could see beyond her smile. "You know you can tell me anything, Amelia." Amelia was quiet for a while. She thought she might have invaded her privacy. "I'm sorry I didn't inform you about staying over.""You know that's not what I'm talking about. There's nothing bad about coming over. But
None of them said a word to one another until the car stopped in front of a club. "As much as I don't support alcohol. I think we all need it right now," Liam said as he stepped out of the car. Jason and Aiden also stepped out. They all entered into the club. It wasn't noisy. Just a few people having fun. They made their way to the bar."Order something less alcoholic for yourself, Liam. We don't want a case where we would drag you out of the club drunk." Jason said, laughing, but Liam just shook his head without a word. Aiden gulped his glass of whiskey in a go. He didn't say a word or look at them, even though their gaze was on him."Are you okay?" Liam asked him, but still, he didn't look up at him. "How did it happen, Aiden? The last time, you only told me she was back, and she still has the mark."Jason interrupted before Aiden could reply. "You knew she was back?" He asked Liam, to which he also nodded. "Wow. And you both didn't tell me about it. I'm the only lost one here." H
She chuckled lightly as she gazed up at the building. It had been months since she last set foot there. She had received a tip from her boss that Aiden came to the pack's house.She knew what she had come there for. It was the only way she had. Revealing she's back as Aiden's first mate to the entire pack. She couldn't wait to see the look on Amelia's face.She walked into the house. The hall where the party was held. It was full of guests who were all minding their business.She needed chaos for her plan. The guests faced the window as they all counted down to the new year. "Three... Two... One... Happy New Year." The room erupted in cheers and laughter as fireworks exploded above. She ignored the commotion, her gaze scanning through the crowd until she spotted Vera.A sly smile played on her lips as she made her way toward her. "Happy New Year, Mother." She greeted with a smile.Vera also looked at her. She couldn't believe her eyes. "What are you doing here? How dare you think of c
