Chapter74Aaron's pov.I knew what had happened, I had friends who gave me information on what was going on.However, I never knew he would be able to pull it off. I thought he wasn't going to pull through with the plan, but it seemed like things went his way.“The Alpha captured Kira, his mate, and Mary, but unfortunately, he killed Mary, and sent men to throw her body in the woods,” the man who gave me information explained with worry on his face.“The Alpha has gone rogue…” I explained with a deep frown on my face, and he nodded. “I don't think you'll be leaving here anytime soon. The mercy of the Alpha faded the moment you decided not to support him.” He explained, making me sigh. I didn't support him for a reason. I couldn't stand back, and watch the innocent people die. I had tried my best to make sure that happend well enough, but it didn't.“You have to escape. You have to make sure that he doesn't see you here because he might end up killing you, or keeping you here forever,
Chapter75Mary's pov.I slowly blinked my eyes open, my vision still blurry when I found myself somewhere I had never been before.At first, I didn't take it as anything, but when memories of what happened flashed before my eyes, I gasped, darting my eyes around because I didn't know where I was.Last I recall, I was in the forest screaming because I was in pain.My eyes immediately rushed to the door when it was pushed open,and I saw a lady with a tray filled with medications.The moment she set my eyes on me, she dropped the tray she was holding, and rushed away from the place before I even got the chance to ask anymore questionsMy heart was drumming fast, and I got confused. I was wondering what exactly was going on. I tried to calm myself , and pushed myself out of bed to see what was going on. However, as I got to the door, I was greeted with the chest of a man.Thankfully, I halted before I could slam my face, but then when I raised my face, I cowered in fear because I had seen
Chapter76Kira's POV.I jolted out of my sleep due to the presence I felt in the room, my heart banging like crazy. I didn't know what else to do, so I decided to watch what he was going to do to me with a massive lump on my throat.It was useless to fight against him, and I wondered how many others were going to get hurt because of me.Because of me, Lucian, and Mary both lost their lives, and this monster doesn't give a damn about it.My hearts tinged with pain when I saw him, but he had a smirk, and didn't seem to want to leave my side.“You seem scared,” he spoke, moving close to me.I stiffened, trying so hard not to make the wrong move. I was in pain due to the constant torture for my disobedience.I either got slapped, or beaten. I wasn't sure if he was in love with me anymore. It was purely lust. The Alpha wasn't himself anymore. He wasn't the Aric I used to know, not like I cared. I only cared about Lucian.“Aren't you going to say something?” He sat down on the bed, making ev
Chapter77Aaron's POV.I stared at her from where I stood, while she looked at the window. Her recovery seemed faster than usual, but it wasn't clear to me why I couldn't stop staring at her. There was just something about her that brought her closer to me. “M-mary?” I finally called with worry on my face. There was no doubt. That there was something wrong. She seemed to be lost in thought for a while. Besides that, she was a wolf, and couldn't even notice my presence.“Oh, um…” She blinked twice, trying to understand whatever I was saying in the first place. “I'm sorry. Have you been there for a long period of time?” she asked with raised brows, making me nod?She looked super innocent, but whenever she stood there lost in thought, I felt like there was nothing I could do about it.“Mary, you're thinking way too much. I know it's not easy, but you have to put yourself together. Besides, we are going to save Kira, but if you–” She continued speaking with me. “Don’t recover on time,
Chapter78Mary's POV.The moment I heard the question, I blinked my eyes, trying to understand what he meant by all he was saying.It wasn't clear to me why he talked about Clark, but I got an uneasy feeling in my tummy when I heard about Clark.My heart drummed, and I didn't know how long I was in thought. However, I drifted out of thoughts when his hands touched my shoulders.“Aren't you going to answer the question?”Aaron asked, holding my hands in his.“I want to know why you, and Clark don't get along. You are both distant from each other, and we need unity in other to fight Aric,” Aaron explained, but I frowned.I really wanted to tell him that we couldn't defeat Aric with Clark, but then I didn't know how he would take it. Besides, he trusted Clark really well.It took a while, but I was finally able to look into Aaron's eyes. However, I discovered he was really close to me.His face was so close to mine, which made me kind of uncomfortable.I gulped, and backed away, but tripp
Chapter79Lucian's povI twirled around the bed, but then I snapped my eyes open. Sweat trailing my head with confusion filling my gaze. My eyes darted around the room, and I noticed I was in a strange place. However, I stopped my gaze on a figure standing in the room.Because of how dark the room was, I didn't really take note of the figure.“You're awake!” I heard a female voice, and then I saw the figure approach me. The way she screamed made me wince. I was in deep pain, my head was throbbing with a headache that refused to go away.I growled in a low tone, rubbing my head with my eyes closed as I tried to calm the throbbing pain I felt on my head.“You aren't feeling well?” This time, the voice was closer, and by the time I opened my eyes, I noticed a beautiful petite girl standing by my side.“I Just have a headache,” I explained, pulling my gaze away from her.This was the second time I had seen this girl, but I didn't know where I was, or who I was. All I knew was that I appea
Chapter80Lucian's POV.I noticed she blinked twice. Maybe she wasn't expecting the question I asked her.“Umm…” Cookie replied, and lowered her head, then she raised her eyes to look into mine.Her heart was drumming constantly, and her throat tried to gulp down the lump I guess was in her throat.“Cookie?” I noticed her hesitancy to speak, so I called out for her attention.“Yes, I'm sorry it's just that the way I found you was a bit weird. You were floating on the river with a wound. You were unconscious, and I was so scared, I wanted to call mother. However, I recalled the current of the river could take you away, so I dragged you to shore.” She explained with a worried look on her face.“Do you know what happened to you?” She asked, but I shook my head. I don't know what happened. I didn't even have the slightest clue, and it was making me worried.“I don't know, but I'm having nightmares. I can't fully recall them, but they keep coming. I don't know what else you can do to help
Chapter81Mary's POV.I had been really distant from the men these days. The truth remained that I wanted to be alone. I was still trying to reach out to Lucian. I knew he was alive, but the fact that I couldn't reach out to him was what bothered me.A knock on my door snapped me out of my thoughts, and made me twist my neck towards the door.From the scent, I could already tell who it was, but since I wanted to be alone, I kept quiet.They were Aric's men, and couldn't be trusted. I also didn't understand what was going on with my heart.Resisting Aaron was almost impossible no matter how I tried to recall the pain of the past, so I decided to stay away from him.The knock became constant, making me frown. If I didn't say anything, wasn't that supposed to give him the memo that I didn't want to speak to him.My heart squeezed when I thought about me abandoning him. I didn't know what he did to me, but each time Aaron was close to me, I got tingles I never thought I would get in years.
Lucian's povMy first dead wife was standing in front of me, and I didn't know what else to say."Where's Kira?" I asked, and then I saw a male figure holding her tight."She's over here...."My eyes moved towards the direction he called, and all I could do was to call out to her.She was crying, and was breathing hard. "Lucian, please help me..." She begged, and I rushed there, but he placed a knife on her throat."The main aim was to kill you, so many people didnt have to die although Mia was partly the reason we lost a lot. I have been meaning to speak to you about something. I know you're worried about a lot of things, and one of them is herz but weren't you wise enough to get the picture that we were playing you all along. First my sister's then my mate. All to end your life!" At that moment, I turned to Penelope, and I saw her shedding tears. It was obvious she still had feelings for me, because I felt our love was very strong."A lycan never surenders I know, and that's why I
Lucian's pov.Everyone was already in their position, and still no sign of Mary. She had told me before not to worry, but then I wasn't such a cold heartless brother not to worry at all.Today was a day of pain for me, and I really wished she didn't tell me about what was going on.I tried my best to make sure everything was perfect. However, the pack house was weirdly quiet."I'll snick inside. The rest of you, attack, and create a distraction..." I instructed, and I watched how they rushed around creating distractions which alarmed Aric's army.Meanwhile, my main aim was to snick into the pack house. I wanted to first of all finish Aric off before I decide to take Kira back home. The pack house was oddly quiet, and I walked in only to meet it still quiet. I moved up the stairs, and there were a lot of things I was worried about.Finally a sound reached ears it was the sound of two people struggling."When are you going to give up Aric. You're weak!" She yelled, but he growled, atta
Mia's pov This as the day inas waiting for, and even when Logan had promised to help me I guess I was finally ready to carry everything about the plan. My men were on stand by, and once I get to Aric I would make sure Kira would be taken away while I deal with him. I didn't care show long that was going to take but it all had to be today. I was getting myself ready when all of a sudden I received a call in my phone. It was from logam, and the moment I saw it, I rolled my eyes. I was tired of him, but the truth remained that I had no choice. I had to go back to him once all these were done because he wasn't alive anymore. Aric killed him, and I was going to show Aric that I wasn't someone to mess with. I picked up the phone, and place it on the outer speaker, so I could hear him while I get myself ready. "Hello darling, how are you doing?" I rolled my eyes, he was my mate, and wasn't meant to be treated bad in anyway. My hands were shaking, and all I wanted was to make
Lucian's pov. I know what she was trying to tell me. "Did she see the future, or was she just scared?" "There's no need to be in thoughts. I know we are going to fight a war tomorrow. At the same time, Mia is already ready. Not for you, but for Kira. I had a vision about the war, and..." I immediately realized where she was going to. "Then I'm not going to allow you go. You aren't going anywhere!" I yelled. Apart from Kira, she was the only close family relation I had, and now, she was my sister. I had taken her to be that. "I'm sorry Lucian, but doing that would only complicate what's going on now. I know things aren't the way you envision them to be, but I'll die in the arms of my lover." She was throwing me all around. I didn't realise she had a lover. Besides, she never used to talk about him anyways. She was always quiet. "I met him after the attack. He was Aric's beta, but he wasn't involved in the attack. He saved my life, and we fell in love, but we got separated
chapter117 Lucian's pov I didn't know what was going on, but the plan seemed to have some kind of fault. Now that I knew that something was off, I needed another plan just in case. Thankfully, Peter was good enough to make sure things went back to ordered. I was happy about the whole thing. I was actually really excited about it. I was glad to know he was ready to stand by me. I moved towards the library, and sat there planning. The truth remained that I didn't even know what our faith was going to be after this, but then I didn't want to envision bad things for myself. I was hoping things were going to be easier to get through with. "You're still looking at the plan?" I heard Peter's voice from the doorpost. He seemed worried, but masked it with a smile. I knew he was going to talk about this. I knew he wasn't going to keep shut. "Yes. I needed to be sure things are in place. I don't want to make the same mistake twice. I couldn't dare let Kira go through anything else
Mia's pov I was shocked to see him at my door. My heart drummed like never before, but there was nothing I could say to him. I felt like my life was about to be over. I was trying my best to understand, but then it didn't seem right. "I see you didn't miss me at all. The frown on your face says it all, darling..." He expressed with a smudged look on his face. I sighed. Not only was I not happy, I was shocked. I couldn't tell how he was able to find me after all these time. I had not given him any information about my whereabouts. No address, nothing of any sort. I was just confused seeing him here. "Cheer up. You're going to be fine. I just came here to see how you're doing. Besides, I am your mate, aren't I?" He asked in an attempt to come into my house, but I blocked him by placing my hands on the door post. "I didn't recall telling you to come in!" My tone was harsh, making him frown in an instant. "Are you perhaps taking to me in that manner because I do not
Logan's pov I was feeling angry inside. I didn't know what else to do, but Mia was making me go crazy and I didn't think there was anything that could help me at this point. I had a glass of whisky in my hand, but no matter how much I sippedz I couldn't get her off my mind. Penelope walked in looking angry. Her eyes lingered on me before she spoke. "You're making her seem like she's gold she's your mate, but I left mine to make you happy. Why cant you forget her, and move on?" I turned towards my sister, and growled. "No. I can't. She's all I have. She's not the enemy. I'm sure she has an explaination for her deed." Penelope laughed. She laughed so hard I was confused, wondering what she was laughing about. "The way you trust her is amazing. I'm sure you have the time to do all that, but I what results. I don't care what it takes, but I think she's also in love with my supposed mate!" "Enough!" I yelled, making everywhere dead silent until the guard I had sent finally
Mia's pov I walked around the room and he stood there with worry on his mind. I could tell he was worried because he couldn't even stand straight. Things weren't as easy as I thought, and at first I was angry, but seeing him in a helpless state was amusing. "Where were we?" I asked with raised brows, and I watched him trying to pick up bits of our last conversation. I was worried and at the same time ready for action. "Get him!" I yelled, and before he could process what was going on. He was pinned against the wall. "What's going on here. This wasn't part of the deal you forgave me!" The moment I heard whatever he said, I laughed like there was no tomorrow. Was he really crazy to think I would include someone as stupid, and clumsy as him? He must have been joking to think that I would have considered that. I laughed again, and he stared at me like I was crazy. I knew that there was no words that could explain how scared he was. His face was pale, and his eyes darted around fo
chapter113 Mia's pov I was shocked about what was happening. I didn't know what was going on, all I knew was that something wasn't right. I hadn't gotten any news from Clark since the second time I sent him away. That's fine, I didn't care what was holding him back. It was obvious he wasn't cut out for the job. Clark was too gentle. He was Maybe kind-hearted, but changed when it was usually his turn to bite. I laughed, loving all I was seeing. It was obvious there was a lot of things to be done. I didn't even mind. I had a lot of things to fix up, and I wasn't going to rest until I fix them up. Picking up my communication device, I dialled his number. I waited for a while so it would ring before I was able to proceed. "Hello?"He answered, not too excited. "You haven't done what I asked you to. What's taking so long?" I questioned, creased lines appearing on my face. I was tired, and didn't know what else to do about the whole thing. I hated when whatever I had said was
