A/N: Thank you for reading :)
FLASHBACK*"It’s you." Brandon looked at the handsome guy to whom he was planning to kick his butt for flirting with his woman. He looked at him in disbelief, it had been around eight years since Brandon had last seen him.The boyish and teenage look that Wylder had back then was long gone. He now looked like a grown-up man."Hello, Uncle Brandon." Wydler left Sophia’s side and walked toward him to hug him. All the jealousy, anger, and possessiveness of Brandon walked out the door when Wylder hugged him. After all, he was no less than a son to him.The day when Tiara insulted him by calling him a beggar in front of everyone. He had planned to transfer a part of his property in Wylder’s name but he had refused to take it."Why didn’t you ever come back after that awful incident?" Brandon asked, breaking the hug. "And when did you return from Elite Academy?" He added next because he knew even Liara was pursuing her studies there. So, maybe… maybe they might have met somewhere accidental
PRESENT*"Wild…" Tiara looked at him with teary eyes. Wylder took his eyes off her. He had once sworn not to let anyone bring tears to those beautiful green eyes, but he also promised Night that he would use his mind instead of his heart.Wylder looked at her and didn’t show any emotions, acting like the cruel person that he never was—at least not for her.Wylder let go of Arabella’s wrist and walked towards his bed, which was covered with red rose petals. He pulled the bedsheet, ruining the whole decoration, and reached near Tiara with the bedsheet, wrapping it around her body. Once he was done, he lifted her in his arms to take her into another room.Arabella watched them leave and didn’t know whether she should be happy that Wylder didn’t kick her out of the room or cry that he himself had left with his mate from his own bedroom.She saw Tiara peeking over his shoulder with a smirk on her lips, silently taunting Arabella that Wylder was with her even though she had the room.Arabel
PRESENT.Her body was full of scars, but her confidence was still worth admiring. She didn't look nervous or self-conscious even for a second. Raising both of her hands in the air, she jumped into the pool and started swimming.The way she kept looking in the direction of his office told him that she did this to add fuel to his anger, and it was working.If not for the tinted glass on his office window, she would have seen his expression, but she did not think that he would be standing behind those windows silently, watching her like a predator'What do you she is doing?' Night asked his human when he saw her resting both her hands at the corner of the swimming pool, throwing her head back, and maybe... maybe planning to sleep.'She is upset that she didn't get the result that she wanted to get.' Wylder responded to him in an amusing tone. He was sure that he wouldn't do anything that she wanted until they sensed someone else around the pool area.Did Gamma not tell everyone not to co
FLASHBACK*After evening snacks, all four of them sat together and played Ludo, a card game; truth or dare; and spun the bottle instead of going anywhere."Make sure that you will capture all the moments," Tiara said, while they finally decided to cut the cake. But everyone’s jaw dropped when they saw the decoration. Even though Sophia didn’t want anything fancy, Wylder made sure to decorate the other room with balloons, cards, candles, and flowers."How?" Sophia looked at the room in awe. "We all were sitting together since evening." She asked, to which Wylder just smiled. Even Brandon was surprised at how the hell this happened while Tiara had a knowingly smile on her face.She knew how this happened, but what touched her heart was the way Wylder was treating her parents, no less than his own parents. Obviously, this wasn’t the first time he had done this, but for the first time, she had observed it.Wylder signaled to go ahead and cut the cake as he was recording everything. Brando
PRESENT*Arabella freshened up, and this time she wore decent clothes.‘I needed all the material required for painting.' She thought about it and walked out of the room. The training was still going on, so she was positive that there wouldn’t be anyone in the Alpha office. And without anyone’s presence, she doubted that she was allowed to go inside alone, but she wouldn’t know until she went there and checked this on her own."Good morning, Lady Arabella." The guard standing near Wylder’s office greeted her, shocking her. ‘Lady Arabella’"Good morning… Sorry, I don’t know your name." Arabella responded."You call me Barry." The guard responded before adding, "Alpha had informed me about your arrival. Please let me know where you want me to set up the easel and all the things that you need for painting." A small smile tugged at Arabella’s lips when she heard that. Even though he wasn’t there to stand by her side, he made sure that she wouldn’t face any problems."In my room. I mean in
FLASHBACK*"Okay. Then the rule is, The moment you speak, I will stop." Wylder said, dropping Tiara on the bed."Then, I’m mute tonight," Tiara grinned mischievously."Let’s see until when..." Wylder teased, joining her on the bed."Please be gentle. I don’t want this to finish within half an hour." She said before slamming her lips against his while Wylder’s heart fluttered hearing those words from her. This was the first time she had asked him to be gentle; otherwise, she used to ask him to fuck her and then kick him out of the room.There was a big chance that she wouldn’t kick him out tonight because her parents were in the other room and he wasn’t going to sleep in the kitchen or the hall.‘You can adjust even in those places, human, but I won't.' Night growled, reminding him that he was a Lycan and also an Alpha now. He had some respect, and there was no way he was going to settle that way.Wylder kissed her passionately like there was no tomorrow. Tonight he was going to take h
FLASHBACK*Before Wylder would have heard anything else, Tiara came in front of him with an ugly frown on her face."Why are you here?""Sorry?" He looked at her in confusion. Did she want him to leave the suite? Well, he doubted that, but then he didn’t give her what she wanted last night, so he couldn’t be so sure after all, his princess had a bad temper."Into my room. Now." She ordered.'Damn, she is so sexy.' Night growled in his mind.‘Did you hear what Uncle was saying?' He asked him, and Night had no answer to this question. Of course, he wouldn’t have after all, Tiara was in front of him. Not that Wylder could blame his Lycan, even if he couldn’t focus properly."Okay." Picking up his pillow, he followed her instead of fighting with her. It was five-thirty in the morning. So, he needed to leave for training in fifteen minutes. "I need to leave for two hours." He added once they were in the room."What? Why? Where? You told me that for a week you would be here." Tiara threw a
FLASHBACK*"Wow!!" Tiara smiled, looking at the dining table filled with the breakfast cooked by her mother. She had a strong desire to eat the food she had prepared. That was why she had planned to burn every calorie that she would take in the gym."Thank you so much, Mom." She ran towards Sophia to hug her tightly."Thanks to you for keeping the kitchen full of all the stocks," Sophia responded. She thought that might be Wylder’s job, but nope, it was Tiara’s work. She had started keeping the stock because Wylder liked cooking and Tiara liked watching him cook."Then you should thank the person because of whom I did that. By the way, where is he?" Tiara asked, looking around and then at the table again, "You didn’t prepare buttermilk pancakes for Wild? You know that it’s his favorite from your hand." She complained with a pout."Sorry for asking that stupid question. There is no way you won’t have prepared breakfast for him. Maybe he already has his breakfast after all, he must have
Colton left from there to prepare for tomorrow’s arrangements that he might need, which was when he heard from his uncle, Oliver."You scared everyone, Sofi.""I was just checking to see how many people would visit me if I died for real.""Childish," his uncle Oscar scoffed in anger, to which Sophia giggled."Don’t worry, brothers. I won’t die because I watched My Colt’s Happy Ever After." Colton cleared his throat."Mom, a moment," he said, looking at his three uncles. Only Oliver smiled at him, while the rest of the two just gave a nod. He had felt this a long time ago—that his behavior was similar to that of his older uncle and his father. Once they left, Colton asked, "Where is Endora’s soul?""In the coven. Sophia switched to her serious expression: "She is just five months old; that’s why she isn’t powerful. To help herself and Tee, I have taught her to control her body or things around her. She is still in her learning phase. She is not going to leave this world until she expose
Everyone started looking at her after her comment. "Umm... did I ask something wrong?" She asked in confusion."No, my love," With that, Calvin smashed his lips against her, ignoring the audience. At the same time, the audience ignored them; after all, he was kissing his mate, not others and also there was no perfect time for romance."Endora is dead, so her soul might be in the other world," Wylder suggested."How does this Endora look? Caroline asked, to which Circe told her about Endora’s sandy blonde hair, her medium height, and her hazel eyes. "I have seen her multiple times around, Mom," Caroline said quickly."Only my family members know that I can see ghosts, just like Mom and Colton," she added. "But I never talked to her because I thought of her as some random soul,""I’m sure Mom would have," Liara said. "Not just can she see and talk with souls, but she can also help them," she reminded."Does that also mean that Mom already knows about Tiara?" Artemis asked. Before anyone
Even after Circe told him everything, Wylder didn’t trust her, but this time he acted like he trusted her fully so that she could agree to help with the map of the coven because that was the initial thing that everyone needed before planning something else."Remember that this is a favor that I’m doing to you, and if it won’t be returned, then you will be cursed. I don’t mind taking your most precious person away from you," Circe warned him.Both friendship and enemies with witches weren’t good things.‘Can I kill her?’ Night asked in anger.‘No,’ Wylder told him. He knew that his Lycan had every reason to get mad because Circe indirectly hinted at snatching his second chance mate from him. ‘She hasn’t said anything wrong. That’s how things work between witches.’‘So, we will kill Zadok Bringer?’‘Yes, if that will be the last option with us,’ Wylder agreed. Call him anything, but he would kill anyone or everyone to bring Tiara out of that hell.Hell, if Circe would ask for his life i
"What did you do because of which you were locked in that room?" Eliam asked Circe."Will you stop irritating me and just leave me alone?""As much as I’m in love with your attitude, darling, right now, I’m Gamma on duty. So, it will be better if you will answer my question directly, or you will have to pay the hospital bill on your own, and if you won't, then you might have to wash all the toilets and dirty places in the hospital." Circe’s face paled at these words. She thought she would be punished, but this was..."There are many patients who can’t walk to the washroom; in that case, you will have to clean the poop.""Stop! Stop it!" Circe cried, closing her ear. Eliam bit his inner lips, trying not to smile at her. "I know you want to laugh at me. Go ahead. Laugh," she said when he looked amused at her situation."Do you know why you are here? Because I doubt your mother will have let you come here.""So, why am I here?" Circe asked in confusion. Eliam found her extremely cute at t
"How could you?" Wylder grabbed both of Liara’s arms tightly, pulling her close to him. "How could you let this happen? You’re the fucking goddess. Why didn’t you stop all that nonsense? Why did you let your sister suffer like that?" He demanded his answer.Liara’s eyes dwelled, but all she could do was stay silent and cry because a part of her blamed herself for the curse that her wolf, Destiny, placed on her.*Flashback*‘I, Destiny, wolf of Liara Haysbert and daughter of the Moon Goddess, Selene, use my human’s innocent soul to curse you that you will end up losing your beauty, your fame, and everything you love.’‘Destiny, please don’t do this. I’m begging you, please! Tiara said, kneeling on her knee.‘Selfish as always, don’t you? This curse will end when you sacrifice your life selflessly for someone else, and no power on earth can change it.’*Wylder jerked her away in anger. "Dare you to cry after watching everything unfold like a fucking soap opera?" he growled at her. He
How on earth did he not notice that? Wondering why he kept staring at the floor until she saw Arabella’s legs in the same place, Lifting his eyes, he finally looked at her.‘She was right in front of me all this time, and I couldn’t recognize her,’ Wylder thought, not missing how she started walking nervously.That was why he could never recognize her footsteps. All the memories of Arabella started appearing in his mind from beginning to end. The way Night reacted when he lost his mind looking at her in the auction The way she behaved, from breaking the vase on his head to hugging him from behind, the way he couldn’t feel anything for fake Tiara, the way he hated watching her with someone else, the way he was possessive of herEverything was right in front of him, and he couldn’t see it. A lone tear escaped from his eyes in happiness, knowing why he wasn’t betraying Tiara and was falling for her again even though he didn’t want to. He remembered how she didn’t leave his side even when
Wylder and Night’s anger and aura scared everyone in the hospital. Eliam quickly reached for him and dragged him out of the hospital before the guards kicked him out of the pack for creating a scene in the hospital where most of the people were already scared or tense because of the condition of their loved one in the hospital, either because of surgery, pregnancy, or any other reason."Alpha, Alpha, please calm down!" Eliam spoke calmly to him."Mine," Wylder growled, laced with Night’s voice."No, I belong to Circe," Eliam cracked a joke, only to receive a tight punch in the face. Well, it was Eliam’s way of calming him down. He knew Wylder had to pour his anger somewhere, so why not him?But it didn’t work because Wylder shifted and ran out of the pack in anger.‘Alpha! Eliam screamed through the mind link and followed him, hoping he would not land in someone else's territory by mistake. ‘Alpha, this is not our place. Please calm down and talk to me.‘Ara is marrying her husband to
Endora tried to understand why she introduced herself as Tee. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t recall a thing, as if someone had wiped her memory like a clean board. No matter how hard she tried, the result was always negative.‘I don’t love him, Mom. I will never The only reason I’m with him is because of his grey eyes, as Theodore said.Who was Theodore?Was this the name of the character in the movies, like Doctor Stephen Strange?It was hard to believe that because she felt that she had read this name recently, she just couldn’t remember it at this moment.‘Think, Ara. Think.'"Aaa.." Her concentration moved to Tabitha, who finally held her hand for a handshake. Endora smiled and picked her up in her arms to talk with her."You’re a witch, right? Can you help me recall my past?" She asked, holding Tabitha in her hand vertically. "If you’re mine, then I don’t remember even you, Tabitha. At least, help me recall that. Hmm,"Hours passed, and Endora kept blabbering in f
"Where is Alpha Miller?" Arabella asked when Alex, the man who was claiming to be her husband, was done giving a tour of their room, showing all the pictures related to them. From dating to marriage to the delivery of their daughter Tabitha.Though everything was in front of her, she just couldn’t buy it. It looked like someone was telling the story of her life, and she couldn’t relate to a thing."He left with his Gamma and his mate.""Left? Without me?" She asked again, not able to believe him. Alex chuckled, shaking his head."You belong here, Dora. So, obviously, he will leave you here, among your family." He said this and raised his hand to touch her hair when she grabbed it, jerking it away."I will be grateful if you won’t touch me until I remember everything," Endora said sternly."Dora, Dora, Dora... Have I told you that you look extremely sexy when you’re angry?" Alex said this with a grin and pulled her into his arms."What are you doing? Leave me!" Arabella struggled into
