I was broken beyond repair, worst of all, Jason was still acting so unbothered. It was like he never even knew Cora and it shattered me to see a person act this way.

I was now finding it hard to breathe, it felt like all organs in me had become congested and I hated the fact. My throat on the other hand had become dry and when I opened my mouth to speak, I couldn’t find the words to do so.

My heart was racing, my eyes were hurting and my head felt like it was being thumped on. I swallowed hard, was this my time to die? Was Cora’s death going to be a sign that it was also time for me to die?

I sniffled and when I raised my head to look at Jason, I could see how unbothered he still was and I hated myself for ever being worried about him. What did I even expect? Did I expect that a man who killed a maid for lying to him and considered the lives of others to be useless would care if Cora, a wolf he never considered worthy wasn’t with us anymore?

    I could see indecision written all over her face, she couldn’t bring herself to choose who she wanted to treat first and here I was, my heart aching and my wolf longing for her to come tend to my wounds.I could hear her heart beating and I knew it was typical of her but I knew I was more injured than alpha Stanley. It was normal for every wolf to fall sick or even die after they lost their mates but Stanley, I didn’t expect this from him, a weak and pathetic alpha he was because if he wasn’t that, he would have definitely never accepted an omega for a mate. She raised her head and I could see her heave a sigh of relief when a doctor passed by and I was also relived, at least it wouldn’t be that tough of a decision for her since clearly, the doctor would take care of alpha Stanley and then she would take care of me. My wolf throbbed in excitement at the thought of this.“The alpha is unwell and so is the beta, please treat his wounds “ she said and it all came crashing to the gro

    “Are you crying?” I asked her and she shook her head before sniffling,“No I’m not. Something got into my eyes” she told me as she helped me lay back down and then continuing to clean me. Each touch of hers soothed me as she slowly pressed the towel on my wounds, asking at intervals if I was sure I was fine. When she was done cleaning my chest and the wounds, she asked me to turn and lay on my stomach and the moment I turned, waiting for her touch to soothe and please me, she stopped.I could no longer feel her touch in my back and the pain started to increase slowly. I raised my head which I’d buried in the pillow only to see her drawn to my back.“Amanda!” I called softly but she didn’t hear me and it wasn’t until I’d snapped my fingers that she shook her head.“I’m so sorry, just that, why do you even have a tattoo on your back?” She asked and I furrowed my eye brows.“I’m a beta, it’s what I do” I told her coldly. “If you won’t help, please go” I told her and she shook her he

    I sighed, what was the use of having powers of seeing things that could happen if it couldn’t even save the one you loved? I wished I had the power to bring the dead back to life, because if I could, I would never let Cora die.I sighed as I took the flower off my hair before going to sit on the bench, staring into thin air as more tears rolled down my cheeks. I was frustrated at life, I didn’t even know how to feel again because now, my life was going into shambles . I dried my tears, it wasn’t like they could bring Cora back to life.I got up and walked and that was when my legs started to shake, I was feeling very weak in the knees and my sight had started to get blurred. What was happening to me? This was really scaring me.I fell to the ground, still conscious as I rolled, trying to get up so I wouldn’t lose consciousness but it wasn’t helping. I swallowed as I got up before moving to the bench and then laying on it.I was laying on the bench when I suddenly lost consciousness

    My eyes were already open at this time and even though I couldn’t see them, I could tell they were filled with shock. How was Jason even here? Wasn’t he injured?“Greetings beta!” I heard Tristan greet and just as he was about to bow to show respect, Jason gave him a slap across the face and I slowly got up.“Jason! “ I called. “What are you doing?” I asked and he dragged my chin and I screamed in pain. “What are you doing? Let me go!” I screamed in pain as he continued to torture me.“Is this what you do? Is this who you’ve chosen? An omega?” He asked and I stared at him in shock and that was when I immediately understood what was going on.He had thought that Tristan and I were having an affair.“What do you even mean by that?” I asked him as I continued to struggle to get free.“Do you think I’m a fool!” He asked as he pushed me away angrily and I stared at him, shocked. What had gotten over him?He went to Tristan and he took hold of him by the neck, staring at him as anger fill

    “It will be fine” I told him as I slowly helped him treat his wounds. I felt my throat itch as I continued to treat his wounds, how could Jason be so heartless? How could he even send someone into the dark toom?“Ouch!” Tristan’s screams as I treated his wounds brought me back to reality and I knew that it was all my fault.What was even wrong with me? What caused me to act that way? If there was any reason Tristan was like this, in this condition, it was because of me. It was because I didn’t care so much and had I struggled earlier than later, I was sure that none of these would have happened to him.“Have some water” I told him as I passed him a glass of water but he turned away as he slightly pushed my hand away and tears streamed down my cheeks, why could I not hate Jason for this?I’d seen all the evil and cruel things he did to people, some were my loved ones so why didn’t I bring myself to hate him? Why did I still care for him and why did I still feel there was a reason as to

    He smirked and just as he was about to leave, I got up in anger. “What do you even think of yourself?” I asked as I flipped my hair backwards. He turned as he stared at me before walking towards me. “What do you think of me?” He asked me and I scoffed as I looked at him.“You’re just a shrude and heartless man who cares about no one but himself. Tell me, what will you gain from belittling him? He’s just an innocent wolf who was helping me when I was almost dying yet you did this to him? Can’t you feel ashamed for once in your life?” I asked him angrily and he gave a slight smirk. He walked to me and I started moving back but he caught me by the waist just as I was about to fall and I looked into his eyes, those eyes that always made me feel weak in the knees.“Don’t think you can speak or behave how you please with me because I choose to stay silent “ he told me and I gave a sarcastic chuckle. “I’ll do what I please, when I please” I told him and just then, he carried me like

    JASON’s POV…. I knew she must have being saddened when she saw I didn’t really care about Cora’s death but what could I do? Was I to feign something I didn’t care about? I sighed as she walked to the door before turning to me and telling me she would go get food.I nodded as she walked out. Something in me was telling me to call her back and not let her go but then I shoved it aside, what was the worst that could happen? Not like I was willing to take any risks with her but at the same time, I didn’t think any one would dare touch her, especially now that I was back. My whole body was aching badly and even though her touch soothed it at that time, I no longer felt soothed as it was aching badly. While she treated my wounds, I didn’t want to show her that it hurt because I felt it would bother her but now, I was beating my pain all by myself. I groaned as I laid on the bed, on my stomach, hoping it would reduce the pain in my back but it didn’t. I started wondering, how was

    This had to be one of the most heartbreaking sights and even though I’d seen a lot of these in my time, this was the most painful. I clenched my fists as the lowlife omega got off her and then the audacity that followed, the bastardized omega dared to greet me.“Greetings commander” he said and my anger knew no bounds at this moment as I grabbed him by the neck.As I tortured that filthy omega, Amanda yelled and struggled to get him free and those actions of hers shattered me. How could she choose an omega, a filthy omega over me! Her pleas instead of getting to me angered me even more. The thought of my taken pleading for someone else, an omega, her lover at that made me most furious and I had no other option but to throw him into the punishment room.. This was the highest of it all and I knew my hatred for that filthy omega would know no bounds after this. I clenched my fists hard as she passed by me, holding that omega, proving to the whole pack that they were indeed havi

    THIRD PARTY'S POV..."Amanda!" She called, and with tears in her eyes, she hurriedly hugged Amanda. "I’m so sorry, Amanda. I wish I hadn’t done that to you. Please forgive me, Amanda. 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

    JASON’s POV..,As the man fell to the ground, I turned. I had the urge to turn the whole time I was fighting this man, but I didn’t. 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
