"W...what do we do?" Clara asked, tears streaming down her cheeks."We have to go back and tell the Alpha." Samantha replied, also crying."Tell the Alpha? He's going to kill us for failing to protect her.""What choice do we have!?" Samantha half yelled. "We have to go to him now." She made to leave but Clara held her hand, stopping her."Why don't we go after them? We can catch up with them." Clara suggested."We can't! We need the Alpha." Samantha replied before dashing into the company with Clara closely behind her.When they got to Nicolai's office floor, they simply ran into his office before the receptionist had the chance to even stop them. The receptionist wanted to go after them, but she remembered how Nicolai scolded her before and simply let things be to avoid getting into trouble again."Alpha." Samantha cried as they both fell to their knees, blood dripping from their head down to their faces.When Nicolai saw the state they were in, he immediately stood up, worry etched
"I'm really worried, Samantha. Don't you think we should be doing something? We should be out there searching for her, not sitting here waiting for some sort of miracle to happen." Clara said, getting up from her bed."We should leave it to the Alpha, what if doing something else gets us into more trouble with him? We're already at the verge of loosing our lives over our mistake." "I don't care, Samantha. I don't care if the Alpha will kill me or not, but it's our fault Jasmine got kidnapped today, and it's our duty to find her and make those people pay." Clara replied, her voice laced with anger and determination.Samantha looked at her for a while, then she heaved a deep breath before getting up as well. "Alright, but where do start from? We don't even know where those people took her too." She stated in frustration."Are you forgetting that we're not humans? We're werewolves, Samantha. We need to use our sense of smell and try tracking her down." Clara pointed out. "Let's go get s
Nicolai's car screeched to a halt beside the bridge. He, Kent, Samantha, and Clara jumped out, their eyes scanning the surroundings. Nicolai's nose twitched as he sniffed the air, homing in on Jasmine's scent."They went through those woods." Nicolai growled, pointing towards the forest. "That's where her scent is coming from."Samantha nodded. "I caught her scent too, Alpha."Nicolai took off in a flash, his pack close behind. They weaved through the trees, stopping occasionally to sniff the air and track Jasmine's scent.As they delved deeper into the woods, a cottage came into view. Nicolai's ears perked up, focusing on the sounds within."I hear their heartbeats." Nicolai whispered.Kent nodded. "I hear it too. My guess is there are five or six of them, including Jasmine."Nicolai's eyes blazed with fury. "What are we waiting for? Let's go."Kent grasped Nicolai's arm, holding him back. "Remember, they're just humans, Nick. You can't kill them. Please."Nicolai's gaze turned icy,
Kent, Samantha, and Clara arrived, and Nikolai immediately stepped out of the car. Kent began to speak, but Nikolai cut him off."We got the name of who sent them, and—" Kent said, before Nikolai interrupted him."Arianna Holland." Nikolai finished, his eyes blazing with fury.Kent's brow furrowed in confusion. "That's right, how did you know?" He asked.Nikolai's jaw clenched. "Jasmine told me. Arianna had her kidnapped to blackmail me into signing a contract with her father and marrying her."Kent's expression turned incredulous. "That's one crazy woman!" He exclaimed. "How could she go that far just to be with you?"Nikolai's voice dropped to a menacing tone. "It doesn't matter. What matters is that they're going to pay for what they've done."Kent's eyes widened in concern. "Nick, maybe we should—"Nikolai cut him off, his voice firm. "Don't say anything, Kent. They've crossed the line, and I'm not going to let that slide."Kent sighed, knowing that Nikolai was beyond reason. "The
Jasmine was pacing back and forth in her room, trying to calm down. She was still fuming from her argument with Nicolai, and she couldn't believe she had spoken to him like that.But as she thought back on their conversation, Jasmine realized that she had been right to stand up to Nicolai. He needed for take responsibility for his actions, and he needed to learn to control his temper.Jasmine took a deep breath, feeling a sense of determination wash over her. She was going to make sure that Nicolai didn't get away with his behaviour. He had ignored her and it's still hurting her.With a newfound sense of confidence, Jasmine walked over to her bed and sat down, and she tried hard not to think about how she had spoken to Nicolai.A knock on her door interrupted her thoughts. Jasmine immediately stood up, her heart pounding in her chest. She thought it was Nicolai, and she wasn't even ready to face him."What do I do? What do I do?" She panicked.The knock came again, followed by a famil
"You're kidding, right? You didn't really kiss the Alpha." Clara asked, a hint of excitement in her voice. "I honestly can't believe I'm hearing this right now." She giggled."I'm not kidding. I did, and since I've told you guys what really happened, can we stop talking about it now, I really don't want to remember it." Jasmine ran her hand through her hair.The moment Jasmine said those words, Samantha and Clara's excitement instantly wore off.Samantha furrowed her brow in confusion "Why not?" "Because it was stupid of me." Jasmine complained. "It was a mistake, I never should have done that and I completely regret my actions. I just want to forget it ever happened.""Are you sure? Or you're just mad the Alpha ignored you because of it." Clara asked.Jasmine fell silent for a while, as she thought about Clara's question. "No, it's not." She finally replied. "Yes I'm still upset that he ignored me after that happened, but it's not the reason I regret it. I just... regret it." She sa
''No…." Jasmine screamed as she woke up with a start, her clothes were soaked with her sweat, her breathing was uneven, and she had tears rolling down her cheeks.Every night isn't different from this particular night, and the dreams are not different from the same dream that woke her up; her losing her babies.She clutched her heart as she recalled just how many times she's had a miscarriage because of the monster she was with; her mate.Her life has never been easy. She's an orphan as she had lost her parents to the cruel hands of death at an early age, and she has no relatives…she has no one in this world except for herself.When she had met her mate Stephen who was also the alpha of their pack, she had thought that her life would change for the better; that she would finally have someone to lean on, someone to rely on, and someone who's going to be there for her, but how wrong she was to have thought her life would suddenly become better because she found her mate. Rather than her
It's been a few weeks since Stephan's rejection, and these past few weeks have been way worse than anything she's ever experienced. Everything Stephan ordered to be carried out on her has been done in ten folds, despite them having workers in the pack, she was being made to do almost everything, leaving her super exhausted by the end of the day. Stephan also hasn't stopped to sexually and physically abuse her, even though he's rejected her.For weeks, all Jasmine could do was cry as she didn't have anyone who would stand up for her, nor anyone who would rescue her from this torment and torture she's been made to go through every single day.She was currently sitting outside the pack house washing the pack member's clothes when she suddenly felt nauseous. Jasmine immediately stood up and went to throw up, literally vomiting the little breakfast she had earlier. After throwing up, she stood up and wanted to return to her chores, but then she felt nauseous again and threw up for the seco

As Nicolai finished his meeting, his receptionist went to inform him of Jasmine's arrival. Meanwhile, Arianna approached Jasmine with a smile."You must be Jasmine." Arianna said."Arianna." Jasmine replied, standing up with Samantha and Clara."It's good to see you again.'' Arianna said, but Jasmine remained silent."Here to see Nick?" Arianna asked."Yes." Jasmine whispered."Alright, I'll see you around.'' Arianna winked at her before leaving. Clara turned to Jasmine."Who's that?" Clara asked."I really don't like her.'' Samantha added."Doesn't matter.'' Jasmine sighed. "I'll go see Nick now."Samantha nodded. "We'll be right here waiting."Jasmine approached the receptionist. "May I go in now?"The receptionist's expression turned apologetic. "I'm afraid you can't. Mr. Nicolai is still busy and won't be taking any visitors."Jasmine scoffed in disbelief. "But... did you tell him I was the one?""Yes, I did.'' the receptionist replied.Jasmine's anger flared up. "So this is how y
After that day, Jasmine tried countless of times to see Nicolai, but nothing worked because he always manages to escape her every single time, he's also stopped coming to stay with her every night, and the whole thing is so frustrating.She was currently in her room with Samantha and Clara, and although she badly needs someone to talk to, she just couldn't talk to them about this because that would be weird; telling them that she kissed Nicolai and now he's avoiding her."Jasmine." Clara called, lightly tapping her arm."Yes." Jasmine flinched."Are you okay? You've been acting weird lately, you're always zoning out. Is everything okay?" Clara asked, her voice laced with concern."I'm fine, it's just...." Jasmine trailed when she suddenly thought of something. "Do you guys know how to get to Nicolai's company?" She asked, her voice hopeful."The Alpha's company in the city?" Samantha asked. Jasmine nods in reply."Yes, but why do you ask?" Samantha asked, giving her a suspicious look.
Jasmine flinched as she sharply turned around. "Samantha!" She called, sighing in relief. "I...It's you." She stuttered. "You scared me.""I'm sorry, but what are you doing here? I'm not sure you know this, but no one is allowed to come into the Alpha's room unless you're here to clean." "I'm sorry, I was just looking for him, and when I saw the door open, I couldn't resist coming in to check if he's here.""He isn't, the Alpha already left for work.""What?" Jasmine furrowed her brow. "But that's not the time he usually leaves for work.""I know right, but maybe he's got something important to do.'' Samantha shrugged. "Really, Nick? All because of me? You're really putting so much effort into making sure we never see each other. How long will this continue, Nick? For how long will you continue to avoid me?" Jasmine thought."Come on, Jasmine. We better leave or we'll both get in trouble." Samantha gently took her arm and led her out of Nicolai's room. ***Mr. Holland was on a busi
