—JASMINE

I feel at peace,

I don’t ever want to go home.

Perhaps it's the nostalgia that comes with having spent my entire years within these walls, because this orphanage feels more like home than anywhere else I've ever been.

The familiar creak of the wooden floors, the worn smell of the old furniture, and the faded murals on the walls all seem to envelop me in a sense of comfort and security.

As I cradle the warm mug of ginger tea in my hands, feeling the soothing warmth spread through my body, I can't help but appreciate Wayne's thoughtfulness.

He had taken it upon himself to brew the tea, knowing it was my go-to remedy for a troubled stomach.

Now, as he sits down beside me, his presence is a calming balm to my frazzled nerves. His eyes filled with concern, makes me feel seen and cared for.

“How are you now?” His voice is the most gentle voice I’ve ever heard.

“You don’t have to thank me” He says, “I’ll do this over and over again if I hav

    —JASMINEDespite my lingering doubts about Hades' unexpected display of kindness, I find myself giving in to his offer to bring me home, unable to spare even a moment to express my gratitude to Wayne for his help, or to bid him a proper goodbye. I couldn’t dare too.What if Hades ends up beating him to stupor? And I know Wayne will understand.Hades' new possessive side towards me is new and crazy, His territorialism is unpredictable and terrifying. The entire ride back home is quiet and surprising as a matter of fact. Hades is completely quiet and focused on the path ahead.He hasn’t said a word and the car’s navigation system is pointing its way back to the main pack house, and not the hospital.I remain rest assured but a tiny part of my mind is still hung on the fact that he can make a turn and go back to the hospital.I never want to relive that nightmare As I get home with Hades, I still can't shake off the feeling that I'm stepping into the unknown, unsure of what his tru

    —JASMINE.Am I okay?I pause, trying to understand if the question Hades just asked was for me or someone else.“What the hell happened here!” Hades yells, his hand reaching to hold my arm and his eyes still briefly grazing around my body to see if I truly got hurt.I freeze under his touch and my body remains still. My muscles tenses up and my breath catches.His fingertips are warm but meeting my skin it becomes icy.Alison’s expression turns completely sour as she notices this.“Enora!” Hades snaps. “What the hell happened here? Where are the servants who are supposed to take over kitchen duty?”Enora stutters as she tries to answer, already cowering under Hades’ anger.“I—“Please it’s not Enora’s fault” I speak up.“It’s really not” Alison takes over. “I’ve been trying to help Jasmine but she wouldn’t let me, so she accidentally spilled the hot water. It’s really not her fault. I’ve got a few burns on my arms but it’s okay”My body goes cold at Alison’s words and I want to shove

    —JASMINE Hades enters the room with a deliberate stride, his eyes flicking towards the doorway where Alison has just departed, a brief, piercing glance before his gaze moves toward me.His gaze catches my face, and he's instantly drawn to the tears welling and dropping tears around my eyes. With a swift motion, he closes the distance between us, his hand grasping mine, holding it captive as he prevents me from brushing away the tear droplets. His grip is firm, yet gentle, his eyes locked on mine with a deep understanding and concern, as if the sight of my tears has awakened a fierce protectiveness within him.“What’s wrong?” His voice is thick and demanding.“It’s nothing” I lie, hoping to get out of the question.“You can’t possibly think I’ll believe that when your eyes are clogged with tears” He scoffs.“It’s nothing” I say almost quietly.“I will not believe such nonsense, now you will tell me what happened” His voice is low and husky, yet resonates with a quiet power that i

    —JASMINE It’s been exactly five minutes since Enora left this room, but I still can’t get her out of my head.My mind is racing with doubts and fears, despite my efforts to reassure myself that everything is fine. Enora’s expression wasn’t right. I don’t know what was wrong about it but I can tell.I want to believe I’m being paranoid but my instincts are so transfixed on this.Q I’llI force myself to shift my focus away from the swirling thoughts and worries, refusing to let them consume me. Instead, I retreat to the sanctuary of my bed, taking in its comforting warmth. As I lie down, I take a few deep breaths, slowly gathering my scattered senses and attempting to quiet my mind. My goal is to recharge and find some sort of calmness before dinner, knowing that if I don't, my anxiety – which I've come to personify as Hades— will only intensify, threatening to devour me whole. Even if he's suddenly kind and charming, Hades words still hold a power over me that I can't seem to

    —JASMINE An IV fluid was administered and fixed on my arm right away in order to calm my system and wash out or remove whatever it was that I had consumed that had worked as a poison to my entire system. While I am lying on the bed and seeing everyone in front of me, I let out a sigh of breath.It’s been six minutes or more since this treatment began, and I can feel my entire body system already responding positively to it. Though I feel weak, I don’t feel nauseous or endangered anymore.Enora is standing at the end of the room, sobbing, and Alison is looking like she’s sympathizing with me.What a fake.I don’t want to believe it, but I think, No, scratch that, I don’t think, I know Alison has something to do with this.Hades does not look happy and neither does anyone.As he thanks the Doctor, the doctor smiles and begins.“The situation isn’t too critical, it could’ve been if I wasn’t called earlier and the fact that she is pregnant I noticed that the only herb that can’t a

    —JASMINEAlison is the devil herself!I attempt to sit up straighter, eager to focus on Enora's words, but she swiftly intervenes, her eyes brimming with tears. With a gentle yet firm gesture, she places her hand on my shoulder, guiding me back into a reclined position. "Please, you're still under treatment," she whispers, her voice laced with concern. Her tender touch and soothing tone convey a deep care for my well-being, and I sense her anxiety about my condition. I sigh and decide to listen to her.As I settle back, I feel a wave of gratitude toward Enora for her compassion and dedication to my recovery. Her hand lingers on my shoulder, a comforting presence that reassures me I'm not alone.And after letting her recollect herself I ask.“Alison threatened you to poison me?”I scoff.“Please” she sighs and glances at the door close like Alison’s still there.“Whatever did she say to you?” I scoff.I wonder how that manipulative woman managed to seriously influence Enora's thoug

    —JASMINEIt's been two days, exactly 48 hours since the incident with Enora, and an eerie silence has taken over the household. The once-bustling hallways and living area are now filled with an air of tension and anxiousness. Every servant is treading on eggshells, their usual chatter and clatter replaced by hushed whispers and deliberate movements.Hades still remains oblivious to the truth, his mind is still clouded by the misconception that Enora was the one who poisoned me. The reality, that Allison was the true culprit And I hate the fact that no one can tell him that it’s Alison’s fault.

    —JASMINE As I slowly open my eyes, I'm greeted by a darkness so thick it feels like a physical presence.The smell of something rotten hits my nose and I get nauseous immediately.With my hand over my nose, to keep that horrid smell out, I try to move, but a sharp pain shoots through my body like a thousand knives stabbing me at once and it causes me to cough. I start to cough and realize the place is empty and is echoing my every sound.My body's slumped on the harsh concrete floor, the chill of it seeping into my skin and bones like a cold mist. I can feel my skin recoil at the icy touch, like a thousand tiny pinpricks. With a surge of adrenaline, I force myself to get up and to start moving, pushing my hands out in front of me like a blind person feeling their way through the darkness. I almost start sobbing when I recall the man in the yard who abducted me.How the hell did they get into the main pack house?With so many bodyguards, they still managed their way through and b

    12YEARS LATER JASMINE—-.The kitchen bustles with activity as servants scurry about, their hands moving swiftly to prepare for the evening's festivities. The clock ticks closer to dusk, and the pressure mounts to complete the decorations before our party guests arrive.I lend a hand where I can, expertly arranging a centerpiece of fresh flowers. Hades burst into the room, Jason perched on his broad shoulders, giggling uncontrollably."You'll make him throw up again," I warn, eyeing Hades's energetic swinging."Aw, he likes it," Hades replies, grinning mischievously, as he makes another sweeping arc."Mommy, I love it!" Jason squeals, his tiny hands grasping Hades's hair.I shake my head, concealing a smile. "If you throw up, don't expect me to come to your aid."Jason's face sets in determination. "I'm four. I can help myself."I chuckle inwardly, recognizing the stubborn streak he inherited from Hades. Jason's words echo his father's confident tone, a miniature replica of the man w

    —JASMINE-Stepping foot in Silvermist feels surreal, like a dream I've longed to awaken to. The word "home" echoes through my soul, resonating with a depth I never knew I craved. Every step carries me closer to a sense of belonging.As I wander through the pack's grounds, a somber atmosphere envelops me. The usual bustle seems muted, with fewer pack members in sight. Some may be busy with their daily routines, but the scarcity of familiar faces weighs heavily.My heart quickens, anticipation building as I approach the main pack house. I've yearned to hold my children close, to see the spark in their eyes. And Hades...my mate, my rock.The pack house comes into view, its wooden facade weathered to a warm, golden brown. Smoke drifts lazily from the chimney, carrying the scent of warmth and comfort.I push open the door, and a sense of peace washes over me. I'm home.After weeks of navigating the unfamiliar city, I'd finally found my footing. The initial disorientation and panic had g

    —HADES.-I trudge back to the Silvermist pack's main house, weighed down by the crushing burden of defeat. The familiar scent of home and family offers little comfort, as the ache within me grows with each step.Until now, I hadn't grasped the depth of great sadness. The hunt, once fueled by determination and hope, has yielded nothing. No sign of Jasmine, no hint of Denzel's whereabouts. The abyss of uncertainty gapes wider, threatening to consume me.As I enter the pack house, my gaze falls upon Enora and Ezra, their hushed conversation halted by my arrival. Their eyes, attuned to my emotions, widen in concern.Ezra, one of our pack's strongest members and a trusted ally had opted to remain behind, watching over Enora and our children while I pursued the hunt. His presence provides a sense of security, allowing me to focus on the search.Now, as Enora and Ezra take in my worn, defeated appearance, they sense the outcome without needing words. Their expressions mirror my despair."

The night is wearing on, and I've lost all sense of direction.The convenience store manager's words echo in my mind: "You're miles away from Maple." The reality hits me like a ton of bricks. I'm stranded, alone, and scared.This place is unfamiliar, its streets twisting and turning in ways that make no sense. I don't know how to navigate these dark alleys and deserted roads.Fear creeps in as the streetlights cast long, ominous shadows. Every sound makes me jump – the rustling of leaves, the distant hum of a car, the creaking of trees.Denzel's face flashes in my mind, his cruel smile etched in my memory. He's a monster for bringing me here, for tearing me away from Maple and everyone I love.My hand instinctively goes to the cut on my chest, the pain still throbbing. Infection is a constant fear, and without Lira's healing touch, recovery w

This is a setup, a trap.Denzel's goons are waiting in the warehouse, ready to pounce the moment we step foot inside.But I'm on it. I brought my pack here to track down Jasmine, not to get caught up in Denzel's twisted game.As their alpha, I prioritize their safety. "Fall back!" I yell.My wolves obey instantly, falling back as I unleash the full fury of my inner beast. Adrenaline surges through my veins, fueling my fight response. I become a whirlwind of teeth and claws, taking down Denzel's wolves with swift and deadly precision.With each swift kick, I send opponents crashing to the ground. My bites are targeted and merciless, crushing bone and sinew. My claws slice through fur and flesh, leaving ravaged bodies in my wake.These amateur wolves, thinking they could take me down? It's almost laughable. My strength surpasses theirs by a landslide, honed fro

The night air thickens, cold and oppressive, as if conspiring against me.Alison seethes behind me, her rage palpable. "Stop this madness, Denzel!"Denzel's smirk twists into a snarl. "Shut up, you filthy traitor. I'll deal with you when I'm done with her.""Traitor, says the traitor himself!" Alison spits, her voice venomous.Hunter joins the chorus of outrage. "You deceived us!"Denzel's laughter sends shivers down my spine. "I didn't deceive you. You're both just blind fools. It would've been nicer to claim one of your bodies."His words drip with malevolence, and I feel a surge of revulsion.I turn to face Alison, our eyes locking in a silent understanding. She wore the cursed necklace around my neck; she could free me.Alison's gaze flashes with recognition, and I turn back to Denzel."Now le

"Ophelia, bring out the pendant. I'll do it, either way."Ophelia's wrinkled hands tremble as she produces the pendant from a hidden compartment. Her voice quavers with a warning.
