AMANDA POV

I was shocked by the utterance I’d just heard from Jason and unknowingly, I knocked the vase over in shock.

“How could he be this wicked that he would spew such words without guilt?” I asked myself as I ran out of the door and towards the garden that was now my place of solace and rest.

Just as I had thought, Jason came after me, trying so hard to stop me from running.

“Amanda!” He called out and with rage, I swirled around to stare at him.

“What!” I shrieked in pain as I gulped hard and wiped the tears that were now dripping out of my eyes.

“I didn’t mean what I said!” He tried to explain as he made to hold my hands which I yanked away from his grip.

My heart was beating heavily and all I could wonder was why someone could turn out to be so heartless, without remorse. How could the same man who I’d thought would at least show a little care for Cora’s death seeing as she only did what she did for the pack be so ruthless?

“She didn’t mean anything to you, right? Because sh

    “And why did you call me here?” I asked Jason who smirked and continued walking closer to where she stood.I moved backwards as though he were an animal ready to pounce on his prey.“I called you here because what you did earlier today was uncalled for!” Jason said defiantly and for a minute, I thought I had only heard wrongly.Earlier, he had apologized to me, and now, he was trying to sound stern and difficult.“What?” I mouthed, but he only smiled calmly. “You are honestly heartless! You had the guts to call me back here in the name of an emergency?” I asked as I felt another pang in my heart.“You did something similar to this some time ago. Tell me, are you hurt by it now?” He asked as he chuckled calmly, totally making me glare at him in disdain.I blamed myself for everybody though. If only i didn’t pay attention to the servant who had said that it was an emergency, I wouldn’t have been here staring at him.“I apologized earlier…but I take it back. I meant every single word I u

    AMANDA’s POVMy heart dropped in shock the moment I slowly raised my head to see Jason’s left hand that was now suspended in the air.I blinked my eyes severally as I tried to decipher if it was surreal or if I was only having a hallucination.But it was real; right before my eyes, he wanted to hit me.I staggered slightly until I was now a few feet away from where he stood. He only gazed at me, without an iota of guilt or emotions flowing through his eyes. It only meant that he didn’t feel bad for what he was about to do, neither did it occur to him that he had just done something cruel to my emotions.“Did you try to hit me?” I stuttered as I blinked severally, holding back the tears that were now threatening to fall out of my eyes.He took in a deep breath and quickly looked away, without providing the answers I direly needed.I scoffed and walked closer, trying so hard to peer into his eyes that were now redirected back to me. I couldn’t believe this, had he really tried to hit m

    THIRD PARTY’s POV….From a distance, Tristan caught sight of Amanda who was sitting by the pool, looking so sad and broken. He knew that something was off with her and he needed no one to tell him that whatever it was concerned Jason. He hissed softly as Jason’s name came to mind, Amanda was never sad for any reason other than that man. Why did he make it his life’s mission to ruin the poor lady? He hated the beta for this.Amanda remained in her own world, taking in the calmness of the quiet pool and trying to disengage her mind from the countless disturbing thoughts that poured in.That moment, she felt a hand on her bare shoulders and immediately, her eyes shot open. At first, she had thought it was Jason and this caused her heart to beat, even if she was enraged. However, the moment her eyes fell on Tristan, her eyes softened, but that lasted for only a second. The next second, she quickly wore a cold gaze and took his hand off her shoulders.“What are you doing here?” Am

    Amanda swallowed hard the moment Tristan walked away. She felt guilty for talking to him in such manner but she didn’t blame herself for it. Her life was a complete mess and anyone in her shoes would react in the exact way and manner she did. No one was going to understand her pains the way she felt them. That was the major reason why she sent Tristan away. He wanted to understand what she felt at the moment but he would never be able to, no matter how hard he tried.“Why, Why me?” She asked as tears finally started making way out of her eyes. She had reached her peak, her tolerance peak had become too full and she could no longer hold in the tears.She had come over towards the pool area to rewind her heart and get a grip of herself but then, she seemed to be losing it instead. Her heart was heavy and weary and all she craved to do was scream until she felt empty.With tears in her eyes, she looked around and scanned the area, hoping that no one was in sight.She didn’t catch a g

    AMANDA’s POV…Was my day going to be anymore worse? This was the question that thrummed in my head as I gazed at Jason who was currently gazing at me with a smirk that made my stomach ache.“Can you let me be? I came out here to have a quiet time to myself”, I finally said to him the moment I regained my voice.He chuckled calmly after which he crouched low and sat beside me, staring at me in a way and manner that made my heart twitch. “You don’t get it, do you? I can’t let you be because you belong to me”, he replied as he stretched his hands and tucked my hair beneath my ears.I froze the moment his hands touched my hair, but regained my stance almost immediately.“Please…let me be alone”, I pleaded with him, trying so hard to stop my heart that was beating out of my chest. He smiled again and this time, wiped the tears that were scattered all over my face. I stared at him intently, wondering how it was possible for someone to switch up in a split second. A moment ago, he was la

    JASON’s POVI had been pacing around the garden when I was approached by a servant. “The alpha demands to see you”, he informed with his head bowed to the ground in respect.I scrunched my brows as I thought of why the alpha would demand to see me when I had seen him only a while ago.I nodded my head and returned my gaze to the garden, clearly making no attempt to leave immediately.“He said that it’s urgent”, the servant had said to me, and I took in a deep breath and gestured for him to leave. Just as I walked out of the garden, I couldn’t help but wonder why the alpha decided to interrupt the quiet moment I wanted to share with myself. I had come to the garden to clear my head, but he was disrupting it.The moment I walked into his chambers, I needed no one to tell me that something was wrong. He was laying on the bed, looking pale and sick. He even had tears trickling out of his eyes.I was certain of how powerful the mate bond was, and I was also aware of the fact that the alp

    He direly needed to know what happened to his mate, and I decided to lay it out to him. Not actually because I was scared of him, but because I felt that he had a right to know.“She killed herself”, I started explaining while I watched how more tears poured out of the alpha’s eyes.I didn’t feel any bit of emotions, because as long as I was concerned, she was dead already and no one could do anything about it.“She went to war and was about winning when a mistake was made by one of her women. The woman died and she went over to avenge her death, even if she was injured. This was a trap set my the opposition group, because almost immediately, they were surrounded by them and taken captive. She kept bleeding and losing strength and from what I heard she was wolfless at that point”, I explained calmly.At this point, he no longer spoke or tried to command respect from me. It just seemed like he was trying to digest everything he had heard and then I had inhaled before continuing,“She t

    JASON’s POVI ran up to meet up with her and just as I had expected, she was in fury and great distraught. My heart dropped and for a minute, I thought of apologizing, even if I knew that I didn’t owe her an explanation for whatever I did.Despite how hard I tried to curtail the urge to apologize, I found myself asking her to forgive me since I didn’t mean it the way she thought.I tried to touch her too, to make her see how serious and sincere I was with the apology. But then, she flinched at my touch and warned me never to touch her again.That broke my heart to pieces, but I was eager to make her see my reasons.And then, that was when she made an utterance that made cold shills run down my spine.“You are heartless and cold, wicked and cruel!” She had said to me without any restraints.I was taken aback as I gazed at her in shock, hoping that she would take back her words. However, when she kept spewing such words, it dawned on me that she was really serious about it. All effor

I’m so sorry." She said this as tears streamed down her cheeks.Amanda put her hands around her friend as she closed her eyes. "It’s fine, Brittany. Everything is going to be fine. Just take a deep breath. I’m here; don’t worry." She said that, and Brittany pulled out of the hug as she welcomed her inside the house."I’ll just wait outside; it seems this is woman talk." Jason said, and Amanda nodded.Amanda wiped her tears as she nodded, walking into the house alongside Brittany."Can I get you something to drink?" Brittany asked as she stared at Amanda."No, it’s fine. I’m fine." She said, and Brittany fell to her knees in front of Amanda as she burst into even more tears."I was your friend; I was like a sister to you, yet I went ahead to do something as despicable as steal your boyfriend.

    I sighed as I sat in front of all the women. I couldn’t even concentrate as my mind wasn’t even focused on whatever the hell they were saying.I signed as I slowly rubbed my forehead. The whole place seemed blurred, and I was feeling extremely dizzy."Luna Amanda, what do you think about this?" She asked me, and I turned to her as I smiled slightly."It’s a good idea; I like it." I lied as I held my head up.Oh geez, I really hoped whatever I had just agreed to wasn’t going to cost me a lot. What was I even thinking when I agreed to be at this meeting when I knew I hadn’t been doing well in the last few days?"Amanda, you’ve not been doing well; come with me; we have to go see the doctor." He had told me earlier, after I had just come out of the bathroom after throwing up.I wished I had just listened to him because now I was actually regretting my decision not to see the doctor. I swallowed hard as I got up. "How about this? I’m not feeling too well right now, and as such, I can’t r

    "I love you too, Amanda." He told me, and I smiled.I tucked my hair behind my ear. Getting admitted, being brought to the hospital, getting proposed to in front of my ex, in front of some staff—this was a dream come true.I knew it was very strange; I knew everyone would think I was the weirdest person in the world to have dreamt of a proposal like this, but this was how I wanted it; it was how I wanted my proposal.He moved closer to me as he cupped my face slightly, pressing his lips against mine while wrapping his hands around my waist, and in less than a second, we were kissing.This had to be the best day of my life..DAYS LATER…..Jason turned to me as he nodded his head as a way of encouraging me. I smiled as I turned to the rest of the pack, continuing my speech. "I, Amanda Wilson, promise to forever do what makes this pack happy. I promise that with whatever decision I make as Luna, I’ll make sure this pack comes first." I told them as tears streamed down my cheeks.Jason p

    AMANDA’s POV…."You have to die!"As I moved around on the bed, holding on to my clothes, those words kept ringing in my head. How their blood had splattered on my face after I sent the sword through them kept coming back to mind, and I jumped out of bed immediately."Madam, you’re finally awake. How are you doing?" The woman who was dressed as a nurse asked me, and I stared at her, confused.I stared at my hand; I was connected to an IV drip, and with the way the place smelled, I knew I wasn’t at the pack house. "Where am I?" I asked as I looked around, and the nurse came to me as she placed her hand on me, pouring out a glass of water for me as she handed it over to me."You’re at Saint George Hospital." She told me, and at that moment, I realized I was in the human world.I nodded as I looked around, holding on to my head. My head was aching badly, and as I looked around, I sighed. "And Jason? Where is Jason?" I asked her."The man who had brought you here? Actually, he went out to

    JASON’s POV….I knew Amanda was worried, but one thing was certain: I had to avenge the child’s death. Amanda wanted this, and until I granted this one request of hers, which happened to be the same as mine, I didn’t think I could rest.I had to admit that leaving my coronation ceremony the very day I got news about Eva and Tristan was a bit extreme, but I had to. They had dared to end the life of my own blood; they had hurt Amanda; and more importantly, they had killed Alpha Stanley.They had tarnished the image we had struggled to build for years, and I would never let it slide. They would have to pay for it, and it had to stand as an example for whoever thought it was okay to just betray the pack that had given them shelter.."Attack!" I yelled as we raided the pack they were now in.They were now in a certain pack that was our secret enemy, and now they were plotting against us. The people here were mostly those who survived the war at the Moon Lovers Pack, and it angered me to s

    "Here, I think this is going to suit you well." She told him with a smile on her face as she handed him a crest.He took it as he stared at her, taking her hands as he caressed her hands slowly. "You know, Amanda?" I really admire the fact that despite all that is going on between us, the pack, and the whole Tristan and Eva situation, you’re still supporting me. Not everyone will be willing to support their partner, especially after they’ve lost a child. You’re really brave, Amanda. Thank you." He told her with a smile on his face.She took a deep inhale as she tucked her hair behind her ear, a slight smile on her face. "You know, certain things are not in our control, and us losing our precious child is proof of that." She told him as she turned, and as she turned, he placed her on his laps as he put his hands around her waist.She rested her head on his shoulders as she sighed. "I know you’ve also not recovered, but then, this pack needs you. I know we won’t ever forget about our ch

    It felt like I was the most useless person to ever exist. My child was the first child that had ever been given to me in my whole life. I couldn’t save her.The fact that I had been warned ahead of time that the life of my child was in danger and I still couldn’t save her hurt me more than anything else."My baby!" I cried as I held on to my stomach.Was it that easy for the moon goddess to take my child away? Was it that easy for her to let them kill my child like it was nothing to her? With the pain in my stomach, I got off the bed and threw the sheets to the floor in anger."I hate you, Tristan. I hate you!" I yelled as tears streamed down my cheeks.My precious child, my dearest child, had been mercilessly taken away from me. I fell to the ground, my hand still on my stomach, as more tears streamed down my cheeks. Aside from Jason, that child was all I had. She was a dream of mine and Jason's, and she was going to be proof that we really did love each other, but what did the moon

    AMANDA’s POV….Fear traveled down my spine as Eva held the knife to my throat. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I stared at Jason, who was not too far from me. I was so close to him, yet he didn’t even know, and sadly, I couldn’t do anything about it, not now at least."I’m not joking here, Amanda. If you actually want to lose your life and that of your child, call out to him. That way, you’ll both die—you and your child." She told me, and tears streamed down my cheeks even more.Not even giving me a chance to react, she started to drag me into the passage, and as she dragged me, I couldn’t even call for help. I swallowed, and before I knew it, she pushed me to the floor, and I hit my head against something.I gasped, and immediately, someone else pinned me down as she tied me. I couldn’t even struggle because she made sure to remind me of what would happen to me if I dared to even call for help.At that moment, sitting there tied up, I didn’t know what to do. Jason was busy trying to

Why did it feel like, had I turned earlier, I would have found something?I started to walk to the place where I had not turned earlier when suddenly, that foolish omega, the one who had the audacity to act like a friend when in actual fact, he was a foe, appeared."We meet again, commander." He told me with a smirk on his face, and I clenched my fists as I stared at him."You wouldn’t want to lose your life, Tristan DeVille. Move away, or you’ll never live to see another moment." I told him coldly as I continued to stare at that passage.He chuckled, "Will you kill me like you killed my parents?" He asked me, and I clenched my fists as I stared at him."I wouldn’t; trust me, you’re not deserving enough to die by my sword, so get lost!" I told him as I pushed him away, and just then, he drew me back as he sent a sword through my arm, and my eyes widened
