"Where could that bitch be!?" Stephan muttered to himself as he angrily paced around his room.Laura who was sitting on his bed couldn't help but roll her eyes at his words. "I wonder why he's so bothered about her." She scoffed."I can hear you, Laura." Stephan said with a warning growl.Laura heaved a deep breath. "The guards clearly said that they've searched everywhere for her, but she's nowhere to be found." Laura stated. "Couldn't that mean something? If they can't find her or her dead body, then maybe she's escaped to somewhere else. She could literally be in another pack by now, or maybe other wolves would have made a feast out of her body, after all she's nothing but a helpless omega who can't even fight to save her life.""I still see no reason why you should be stressing yourself about her, and if you badly want to find her that much, why don't you just go see the pack witch or something." She scoffed.Stephan wanted to yell at her and ask her to shut up, but when he heard
Laura paced outside Stephan's mansion, nervously waiting for him to come back since he's been gone for quite sometime. She couldn't stop praying that the pack's priestess shouldn't tell him anything about Jasmine's whereabouts, and even if she wants to tell him anything, let it be the news of her death."This is all my fault! It's all my fault!" She slapped her mouth.Soon, Stephan's car drove into the premises, and Laura was finally able to feel a bit relieved.When Stephan stepped out of his car, she immediately ran to him."Stephan, d...did you find out where she is?" She asked, but Stephan didn't even reply, he just kept walking into the mansion, while Laura followed him, trying to get some answers out of him."Why won't you say anything to me? Remember I was the one who brought the idea of going to see the pack's priestess, so I deserve to know what she told you." She said. They were already at Stephan's room by now, and he hasn't even said a single word to her, he just keeps on
Jasmine was done with her check-up, and Nicolai was currently giving her a tour around the pack."Is it really okay to do this for me? I'm sure you have other important things to do." She said, feeling bad that Nicolai had to trouble himself by giving her a tour when he should be using his time for something important."I'm not complaining, unless you're tired and want to go back home, then I'll take you back. I just want you to know the pack a bit." "Thank you, and I'm not tired, I'm just feeling bad that you have to go through this trouble for me." Jasmine replied."It really is nothing, I just...." Nicolai trailed when he noticed that her shoelace had loosen. Knowing how dangerous it'll be for her if she should trip and fall, he immediately asked her to stop."What's wrong?" "Your shoelace is untied." He was about kneeling to help her tie her shoelace when she stopped him."What are you doing?" Jasmine asked, surprising Nicolai."I want to help you tie your shoelace, I don't want
Kent was on his way to see Nicolai when he ran into Cruella. He wanted to ignore her, but she didn't let him."Wait, Kent." Cruella blocked his path.Kent sighed deeply. "What do you want this time, Cruella? I really don't have time for you. I'm in a hurry to see Nicolai." "I know, and I promise I won't take much of your time." Cruella smiled.Kent had a huge frown on his face, he wonder if he should just leave rather than listen to what she's trying to say."You know me well, Kent. You know I'm not going to let you leave until you talk to me." Cruella said, as if reading his mind.Kent mentally rolled his eyes at her words. Now this is another reason he doesn't like Cruella. She always wants to have her way with anything at all. "Fine." Kent said in surrender. "What do you want to talk about? And you better make it quick because I haven't got much time to spare."Cruella smirked. "I want to know about the lady staying with Nicolai. She's not just a person he wants to have some fun w
Jasmine was in her room reading a novel Nicolai got for her when a knock on her door interrupted her."Jasmine." She heard Nicolai's voice and instantly permitted him to come in.When Nicolai walked in, she dropped her novel and made to stand up from her bed, but he stopped her."You don't have to get up, it's fine." He said to her. "How are you and the baby? Do you need anything?" He asked, going to stand beside her bed."We're fine, and I don't need anything." Jasmine replied with a smile."What about food? Aren't you hungry?" He asked. Jasmine shook her head. "It hasn't been long I ate, so I'm not hungry." "Alright, just let me know if you need anything." "I will. Thank you.'' The reason he came to see her was to talk to her about going to see a psychiatrist, but he didn't even know how to tell her. He fears she might get upset, and refuse to go see one."Nicolai?" Jasmine called, jolting him out of his thoughts."Yes.""Are you okay? You look worried." She said, her concern ev
"What do you want?" Jasmine asked.Cruella smiled at her, then she slowly approached her bed, and when she got there, she roughly pushed Jasmine's leg away and took a seat on her bed.Jasmine wanted to say something, but she let it slide.Cruella's eyes went to the little bump on Jasmine's tummy. "How could I have missed this the first time? You're not only a rejected mate, but also pregnant." She closed her eyes and focused on listening to the heartbeat of the baby. When she reopened her eyes, she smiled mischievously. "I hear three heartbeats. One is yours, and the other two belongs to the babies in your tummy." She looked at Jasmine."What?" Jasmine asked. Confusion was written all over her face."Why do you look confused? Didn't you know you're having twins?" Cruella asked.Jasmine placed her hand on her tummy. She couldn't help but wonder why the ultrasound didn't pick this up. I'm having twins?" She said in shock. She thought she was only having a baby, but now she's found out t
Nicolai has just closed from work and was on his way home when Jasmine crossed his mind. He remembered that she hasn't got much clothes and thought to get her some, so he swiftly turned his car around, heading for the clothing shop. Even though this is a bit embarrassing to him, he wanted to do this for her.Nicolai soon arrived at the clothing shop, he parked his car outside and got out. He inhaled and exhaled deeply before walking to the shop."Nic!" He heard him name and sharply turned around to see Cruella.Cruella smiled when he looked at her, then she ran to him and linked her hand to his. "I didn't expect to see you here. What brings you here Nic?" She asked with a bright smile plastered on her lips.If Cruella hadn't been his childhood friend and someone he was comfortable with, Nicolai won't hesitate to push her away because he always feels irritated when other women come close to him. Although he doesn't feel that way with Jasmine, and as for Cruella, he's only tolerating he
''What do you mean she's missing?" Nicolai demanded, his voice laced with concern. "How can she be missing?"The maid, out of breath, hurried to stand before him. "Alpha, I'm so sorry. I checked on her as you instructed, but she didn't respond to my knock. When I entered her room, she was gone."Nicolai's eyes narrowed. "What did you do next?""We searched everywhere, but she's nowhere to be found," the maid replied, her voice trembling. "That's when we called the beta.""Don't worry, Nic. We'll find her. I've sent some guards to go search for her. I would have gone with them, but I wanted to wait until you returned so I could tell you what happened.""I don't understand. Why would she want to leave? If she was having any issues she could have just talked to me about it. I just don't understand why she would want to leave." Nicolai ran his hand through his hair in frustration. He was so worried about Jasmine and her safety."Was she having any troubles? Did anyone do anything to her w
Cruella sat on her bed, her legs and arms crossed, a sly smirk spreading across her lips. "You may leave now." She told Samantha, her voice dripping with malice. "I'll deal with these two myself."Samantha hesitated, her eyes darting to the twins, who stood frozen, their eyes wide with fear. Cruella's gaze never left them as she rose from the bed and began to circle around them."I...I only brought them here to apologize," Samantha stammered, stepping forward to intercept Cruella. "The twins told me what they did, and I'll admit they were wrong, but they're just kids, so—""So what?!" Cruella's voice cut through Samantha's words like a knife. "And who do you think you are to dare stop me? You're nothing but a lowly maid! Don't forget your place."Samantha's eyes flashed with anger, but she kept her voice steady. "I know my place, but I won't let you harm the twins. They came to apologize, that's all."Cruella sneered, her eyes blazing with contempt. "I'd love to see you try to stop me
Cruella lay by the pool, soaking up the sun, oblivious to Owen and Amaya hiding behind a massive flower vase."Are you sure she won't see us?" Amaya whispered, concern etched in her voice."She won't.'' Owen replied, his voice barely audible. "She looks asleep.""What about our scent?" Amaya asked. "Won't she sniff us out?"Owen shot her a stern glance. "That's why we applied mud. It'll mask our scent. Remember what Dad told us?"Amaya nodded, feeling more confident. "Alright, let's do it."Owen peeked at Cruella, his gaze landing on the orange juice beside her. A mischievous grin spread across his face."Wait here." He whispered to Amaya. "I'll add something to her drink."He held up a bottle of chilli pepper they'd snatched from the kitchen."Be careful." Amaya warned. "Don't let her see you."Owen crept towards Cruella, freezing as she suddenly picked up the juice. He held his breath, afraid to move.Finally, Cruella placed the juice back down and closed her eyes, basking in the se
Jasmine was on her way to work when she was suddenly pulled into the room by Cruella. "Hey!" She yelled, forcefully pulling her hand from Cruella's hold. "What do you think you're doing, Cruella?" She questioned, glaring dangerously at her.Cruella smirked. "I know you've been dying to speak to me so here we are, just me and you." Cruella replied, taking a step closer to her.Jasmine sighed. "Good, at least now I can ask what the fuck are you up to?" Jasmine questioned with gritted teeth.Cruella laughed. "What do you think I'm up to? I'm just here because my house got burnt." She shrugged.Jasmine scoffed. "Like I would be stupid enough to believe that." She hissed. "Tell me the truth, Cruella. You've got a motive for being here. You're definitely up to something." She stated firmly.Cruella stared at her for a while before bursting into laughter. "Fine, you've got me." She raised her hand surrender."You're right Jasmine. I am here with a motive." Cruella said, a serious expression
Jasmine has just woken up and was surprised to see that Nicolai wasn't in bed with her. "Nick?" She called, slowly sitting up. Her eyes scanned the room but she couldn't find him, she sighed before getting out of bed, then she went to grab her robe and put it on, she also checked the bathroom just incase he was there, but he wasn't, and for some reason, she was moved to go check Cruella's room just incase he was there.As Jasmine made her way to Cruella's room, a part of her was sincerely hoping that Nicolai wasn't there. She soon arrived at Cruella's door and just when she wanted to knock, she hesitated. "Oh goddess." She heaved a deep breath, braced herself up before knocking the door, but she got no response."Cruella? Are you in there?" Jasmine questioned, but still she got no response. "Screw this." She muttered as she tried opening the door, and luckily, it wasn't locked. When Jasmine stepped into the room, she couldn't find Cruella or Nicolai. She doesn't really care about Cru
"Nick, I'm...." Jasmine trailed when she couldn't find him anywhere in the room. "Nick?" She called, her brows furrowing. "Where could he have gone?" She sighed, then she went to pick up the towel Nicolai had dropped on the bed and returned it to the bathroom.When she returned to the room, she picked up Nicolai's phone from the bed and kept it on the bedside table, then she got in bed, but she couldn't sleep as she was waiting for Nicolai.After waiting for a while, Jasmine got out of bed, wore her slippers and went out of the room to go search for Nicolai. When she got downstairs, she began calling out to him but go no response, not until the guard outside heard her voice and went to meet her inside."Luna." The guard called, and Jasmine swiftly turned around. Although she hasn't been crowned the pack's official Luna, but everyone knows that she's Nicolai's woman and they can see how much he loves her, so they simply address her as Luna."Yes." Jasmine calmly replied."I heard you c
"Good night honey.'' Jasmine said as she lovingly kissed Amaya's forehead, she walked over to Owens bed and placed a kiss on his forehead as well. "Get some rest." She stood up and was about leaving when Amaya called her."Mummy." Jasmine swiftly turned to look at her. "Yes dear, do you need anything?" She questioned, going to sit beside her bed once more.Amaya shook her head, she then looked at Owen, contemplating on if she should tell her mother what Uncle Stephan had told them."What's wrong, dear?" Jasmine asked, concern etched on her face. "Do you want to talk to me about anything? Mummy's all ears." She gently urged her to speak.Amaya nervously bit her bottom lip. "I don't know, mummy. It's about what Uncle Stephan told us." Jasmine's curiosity piqued, she then placed her hand on Amaya's hand. "It's okay, dear. You can talk to me. What did he tell you?" She calmly asked."Promise you won't get mad?" She questioned worriedly."I'll never get mad at you baby, you know it." Jas
Cruella was about leaving her home when she noticed a car driving towards her, so she waited to see who it was."You two wait in the car, mummy will be right back." Jasmine said to the twins before stepping out of the car.When Cruella saw her, she simply rolled her eyes, already guessing why Jasmine was there."Cruella." Jasmine called as she approached her. She pulled her aside, away from the twin's view, then she slapped her hard across the face. "That's for daring to toy with the lives of my kids!" Jasmine fumed, her blood boiling with rage.Cruella scoffed in disbelief, her hand placed on her cheek. "Have you gone crazy, Jasmine?" She questioned in annoyance. "You're really asking for it, aren't you?" She took a step closer to her."You should be lucky I only slapped you once." Jasmine retorted. "I never joke with my kids, Cruella. You have no right to pick them up from school and give them to someone else like it's nothing!""Someone else?" Cruella laughed. "I only did them a fa
Jasmine was engrossed in her work when her phone beeped, but she ignored it, assuming the message wasn't urgent. However, when a second text arrived, she quickly wrapped up her task and grabbed her phone.Her heart sank as she saw the message - a video of Stephan and the twins laughing and enjoying ice cream together, accompanied by a chilling text: "Come meet us." Jasmine's body went cold with fear. She sprang to her feet, grabbed her bag, and rushed out of her office in a panic.Jasmine burst through the company doors, her heart racing with every step. She rushed across the parking lot, her eyes scanning the area for any sign of danger. She quickly unlocked her car and slid into the driver's seat, her hands shaking as she started the engine.She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down as she pulled out of the parking lot. Her mind was racing with thoughts of the twins and Stephan, and what he might be planning. She glanced at the GPS, her eyes widening as she saw the locatio
Jasmine and Nicolai emerged from the courtroom, beaming with relief. Nicolai cradled Amaya in his arms, while Jasmine held Owen close. Kent rushed up to them, out of breath."Nick, Jasmine, I'm so sorry I missed it." Kent apologized, feeling a pang of guilt. He had gotten caught up in a romantic morning with Scott and lost track of time, nearly forgetting the importance of today's court hearing.Amaya and Owen squealed in unison, "Uncle Kent!" Stretching out their arms. Kent laughed, taking both children from their parents and enveloping them in a warm hug."How are my babies doing?" Kent asked, pulling back to examine their faces."I'm fine, but I'm tired." Amaya complained."Me too." Owen chimed in. "I'm hungry. And why did we have to come here? Some man kept saying he's our daddy, but our daddy is right here." Owen looked up at Nicolai.Jasmine exchanged a brief glance with Nicolai before forcing a smile. "That's right, baby."Stephan stormed out of the courtroom, his face twisted
