Finally, it was Monday. She has been worried sick all through the weekend, even though she still tried to keep her mind off it. But what happened on Saturday really broke her. She had stopped having dreadful dreams about her dad telling her she had killed her mom a long time ago, but last night it happened again.She doesn't even remember her mom, but she could still remember how she carried that guilt and blame for years. She would always tell herself she had killed her mom. Even her stepmother and sister, Valerie, would always remind her of those painful words her father used to say, which made her always try to avoid people those years back. She would do her things alone, even in high school. Go to school alone, talk to no one, and come back alone. She was just starting to get close to people even though she didn't know how or how to relate well.Her lectures for that day started at ten in the morning, and she quickly left the house immediately after Aiden went to work.She got to
"Just a few days in school, and all this is already happening to me. Now I accept. I was born with nothing but bad luck. I should just quit school; that's the best decision now." She cried, wailing as her face had turned swollen and red. She cried for a long time, telling herself to just quit her dream and give up, but after a while she stopped crying and still advised herself she couldn't give up yet. "Even though that witch could get me killed. I can't let go of everything I've done to get this."She left her room and stayed in the sitting room for a long time until it became dark. "I should just tell him even if it means I have to plead on my knees." She thought as she waited for him. She couldn't even cook dinner, but she just hoped he wouldn't mention his food, because that would mean she was done for.Around eight in the night, he opened the door and walked in, with his assistant behind him. Amelia also quickly stood up and went towards him. "Welcome."He looked at her and saw h
She got back home and took a long nap, and she only woke up in the evening. Her body ached, especially her neck, and she was so tired that she thought of sleeping, but she knew she had to prepare dinner.It was already becoming late. She quickly made his dinner and was setting the table when she saw him coming from the stairs. She quickly placed his cutlery and moved away. "Good evening." She greeted him, but as usual, no reply.He sat on the chair and started eating, but just when he glanced at her, he saw something shocking. It was as if he knew something had happened to her. That was why he looked at her side.Suddenly, he dropped the cutlery, making Amelia look at his side before looking away. "What's wrong with him? Did I do something again?" She thought as she could feel his gaze on her.He had been ignoring whatever had been going on with her, but at that point he couldn't hold himself any longer. "What's that mark on your neck?"She touched her neck slightly as if she didn't k
The next morning, she had planned not to go to school, but she still didn't want to miss her classes. She decided to muster up her courage again to go. "I just won't go to any empty place with her," she thought.As she walked slowly into the school, looking around to check who she wasn't hoping to see. She almost got to her faculty when she bumped into someone. "I'm so sorry," she said, rubbing her forehead as she looked up at the person. It was Jace. She became quiet all of a sudden, not knowing what to say."It's fine." He said before walking away.Amelia felt as if he waited for her to say something, but when she couldn't find her words, he just walked away. She looked back at him and watched him walk away, until she also walked into the building.As she entered the class, she moved towards the back of the class to sit there when she saw Alicia and Samantha. "Amelia. Over here." Alicia said, waving her hand in the air to show her a seat she had kept for her.Amelia also looked at h
He was getting dressed for work the next morning when his phone started beeping. It was Paul."Hello," he said as the caller also answered. "Hello, Aiden. There's a meeting with the silvermoon pack today, and you need to attend," Paul said."Which meeting is that? I don't have time." Aiden replied, about to hang up, when Paul said, "The head of the organization of the werewolves will be around."The head of the organization of werewolves is like the head of the whole werewolf world. They help settle disputes and make rules in the werewolf world. I might say they're like a court."I'll be there." He said before hanging up. He knew the organization wanted to solve the issue between the two packs. As they always do, but no good outcome. It either ends in a bigger rift. He couldn't believe he would have to forsake his work for a useless meeting.He told his assistant to go to the office instead of him, while he went with the driver to court.On getting there, he saw that a lot of people w
Outside the court. After Aiden and his pack members had gone. Rauf stood in front of the court with his son behind him, rubbing the back of his head, which had become swollen.Not too long later, a car stopped in front of Rauf, and he opened the door, but not before turning to his son. "Do you know how much you've disgraced me today? Your sister wouldn't have let this happen, but you... The man could not even complete his words. He just sighed with his eyes closed and got into the car before it drove off.Looking at the car as it leaves the compound, Mark gritted his teeth in anger. He went through a lot of embarrassment, and that was because of Aiden. He had disgraced him and his father, whom he had been looking for his mercy. His father would always pair him and his sister together. His father even once told him that his sister could later be Alpha because of her strength and determination."I'll make sure I deal with you, Aiden. By the time I'm done with you, you'll even beg at my
Mature content"Hello. Is anyone there?" A voice could be heard echoing in the scene. He could not see where he was going because it was dark, but he tried to feel the dark space with his hand.Not too long, a bright light suddenly turned on in the narrow passage. The walls were painted in red and the roof was white, but at the end of the wall it was so dark he couldn't see a thing despite the bright light. He walked slowly towards the path and only stopped when he heard a footstep.The footstep also stopped, and he could see someone in the dark, even though not clearly. "Why? I didn't do anything." The familiar voice said, but still he couldn't say anything other than shake his head with tears in his eyes.He kept shaking his head as he woke up from sleep. His whole body was dripping with sweat. He sat up on his bed and ran his hands into his hair. He didn't understand how or why the dreams could come back after months. "Could it be because I still keep her things?" He thought, but
His motorcycle stopped in front of the black gates of the house. "This is where you live?" She heard him ask, to which she also replied weakly. "Yes." She assumed the guy must be thinking about how someone like her could be living in that kind of house, or probably blaming himself for having encountered someone like her, who he thought might be just a maid. Different thoughts were passing through her head.But in reality, Jace was just wondering why she was living in the alpha of the shadowmoon pack. He was not from the shadowmoon pack or its rival pack, the silver moon, but he knew the feud between both packs and where each of their alpha lives. "Well. I'm living here because I work... She couldn't finish her words because she felt embarrassed. She felt it was strange to tell the guy she was working as the Alpha's personal maid. "You do know you don't need to explain that to me, right?" Jace said with a smile before adding, "You're a grown up, and you can do whatever you want. I al
Two days later. He got discharged from the hospital and went back home with Amelia, who helped him with things despite his disapproval, saying he was fine. He got new maids to get Carrie's things out of the house and get the entire house cleaned. It was finally time to punish the evildoers. He walked into the hall of the pack's house. The elders have all stood silently on a side. His mother, Amelia, and brother were also present. "Bring them in." He said as he sat down in front of them. The guards left the room and came back with three people whose hands were tied. They all looked dirty and pale. And their body had marks like they'd been beaten a couple of times. His gaze was on Paul, who knelt on the floor with his face looking down. "You all have heard everything going on. It's a pity someone from our pack, who I trusted so much, had been... planning. No. He had planned so many evil things for me and my pack. Paul here. Killed Wes manipulated me, my wolf, into believing his
She paced in front of the emergency room while Jason stood in a position, staring at her. "Sit down, Amelia. He'll be fine." Jason said for the umpteenth time, but she didn't listen.She knew he was a werewolf, and he'd be fine from the stab, but she was still worried. She kept blaming herself. She should have told him before she went ahead with her stupid plan. The thought that he took the knife for her haunts her so badly."Jason." Their attention was diverted to Vera, who walked in. "Where's Aiden?""He's fine, Mum. Calm down. You both know he'll be fine." Jason said with a sigh. Vera also looked at Amelia. "Amelia. I'm sorry. How are you? You should get yourself treated first." She pulled Amelia with her to go get a doctor to treat the wound on her neck."No. Please. I'm fine. I want to stay here." She said, tears rolling down her cheeks. "It's my fault. I didn't tell him. I put him in danger. I'm sorry." She cried."No. It's not your fault. It's mine. I trusted someone I shouldn'
Warning: The chapter might be sensitive to read.She looked through the window. The sky was becoming bright. A drop of tears fell from her eyes. She had told herself she wouldn't cry because Aiden would find her soon and save her, but hours had passed, the day had broken, and he hadn't found her."Maybe he doesn't know I'm missing." She thought to herself. The thought of Carrie finding the phone before Aiden means she would lose her life.Not too long after, the door opened, and Carrie entered the room; Jace also walked behind her. She brought out a familiar phone, which Amelia recognized as her phone. "Surprised? You're so stupid, omega. Do you think Aiden will come to save you? He doesn't even care about your existence." She chuckled. "No. You're lying." She shook her head. She didn't want to accept that Aiden didn't care about her. "He doesn't know. Stop lying.""He doesn't know? Does that make sense to you? He doesn't know his woman has been kidnapped for a day now?" Jace asked,
Her head felt so heavy. She opened her eyes slowly to get familiar with her surroundings, but her eyes failed her. She couldn't move her eyelids because of the weakness. She knew she was tied to a chair, but she couldn't move a muscle. She felt like a vegetable in the chair. She swung her head to the back and stayed like that for hours, deep in sleep.An hour passed. Two. Four. She moved in her sleep and groaned painfully. She tried to use her hand to touch her neck, which hurts so much, but couldn't. She looked down to see her hands being tied to the hand of a wooden chair. "Ah!" she groaned even more because of the pain in her neck. She had kept it in that position for a long time.She tried to look around. The room was dark with only the light up the ceiling, pointing directly at her. The light was too dull to reach the corners of the room. "Carrie." She called out slowly at first, as her throat was dry and painful.She wondered how many hours she had slept because it had already
The next morning."I don't know if I should be surprised. You've gotten quite bold lately, Amelia. Did Aiden know you're here?" She sat on the couch with her leg crossed on the other as she stared at Amelia, who was also sitting opposite her.Amelia had called her that morning to say they should see and talk. She was surprised at first, but agreed. She agreed they meet at Aiden's house. "I think you should be anxious instead," Amelia said to her. She had planned to expose her and her father that day. She had had enough of her lies. She needed to let Aiden know, but he would hear it from her herself.Carrie scoffed before saying coldly, "Know your place, omega. Think before you spout out nonsense." Amelia was boiling with anger. The thought of Carrie still talking with so much confidence after everything she had done annoyed her. "Of course. I should know my place because I'm an omega, and what about you? I'm not here to fight or argue about position. It's just to confirm. No. Find o
Aiden looked at her. His heart pounded fast. She knew everything, yet she didn't say anything. "Oh... Eric must have told you." She wanted to tell him she didn't know from Eric, but she let him be. "Are you okay?" She asked. He was avoiding her gaze, and she hated it."You should be scared.""Why would I be?" Amelia asked back. Suddenly, he stood up, running his hand through his hair. "I don't know. I killed a close friend and hid it from everyone." He paused and looked at her. He didn't see the emotion he expected from her face. The same one his mother and brothers had. They don't believe him, and it's making him feel more guilty."I killed him... because I was jealous. He was as strong as me, probably more. And maybe you all aren't worried, or you don't believe me, because I think I'm going insane. It haunts me every day, in my sleep. I've been suffering from insomnia since three years ago. I don't know if you all just think I'm making this up or something. I killed Wes, hid it, an
"What do you think you're doing? You've destroyed everything, Carrie! You're such a big fool. Aiden just told the pack everything about Wes!" He screamed but calmed down, knowing he was not in a safe place."I know." He heard her say."You know?! Carrie, do you know what this will cause me?!" He screamed, running his hands through his hair in anger, but he heard her scoff. "Enough of this. Do you think your plan for three years will work now? It had always been a stupid one, going after his feelings or whatever. Yuck."He couldn't believe she was talking to him that way. "How dare you, Carrie! Learn how to speak to me, or I'll remind you of your place." He said, but she scoffed again."I changed all your plans. We'll kill Aiden. And anyone that comes in our way.""That's not part of the plan." He snapped."It's not, but it would be. And now is the time... I'll call you back. I'm getting another call." She said, but before she could hang up, he screamed. "Don't you dare hang up on me!"
"Amelia. Wake up." She tapped her and tried collecting the glass ball from her, but it didn't work."You did not kill him. You know nothing about it. Please." She kept begging and crying in her sleep.Patricia knew she had seen somebody bad, and she needed to bring her back, but the spell to reverse it wasn't working on her. It seemed like she was seeing another memory.***"Elijah." She called out from the living room, but she didn't hear any sound. She looked at the baby in the cot and smiled. "I'll be back, dear." She stood up and left to go look for her second child."Oh my goodness!" She sighed, seeing the mess the three-year-old had caused in the kitchen. Ever since he started walking with his little legs, she hadn't had peace."So stubborn." She cleaned his shirt, which had a stain. Immediately, her phone beeped in her pocket. She brought it out and saw who it was. Without wasting time, she picked it. "Roseline, leave the house immediately. I saw a vision. He knows where you ar
"This is risky, Amelia. In some cases, it might not work." Patricia said to her as they both looked at the glass ball on the table.Amelia looked up at her. "Please, I need to. Carrie is hiding things, and I can't ask from Aiden. She's manipulating him because of something that has happened in the past."Patricia sighed. Amelia wouldn't let her rest. She had to even come so early in the morning to her place. "Ok. We can at least try. Are you ready?" "Yes." Amelia nodded. "Lie down," Patricia said, to which she also obeyed. She lay on the couch while Patricia began chanting some spells. Patricia gave her the ball to hold. After some minutes, she sprayed a powder at Amelia. "Do you feel sleepy?" She asked, to which Amelia shook her head. "No.""It's a powerful magic, and it won't work so easily. Seeing things from another's past isn't easy." She said it again before trying the spell again, but still, nothing happened. The time seemed shorter because they tried so many times. They ev
