MARCELLA Trouble In Paradise. I walked back and forth in the huge living room, I’ve been so restless all day. Enid hadn't dropped by the mansion today, not even once. It was odd and it was getting under my skin. Why was he spending all his time with her at the hospital? The thought alone made me queasy. I even toyed with the idea that maybe, just maybe, Enid was falling for Ximena. Never! Not while I’m still breathing. But it seemed so real though, because why else would he stay by her side? I never thought she'd be the kind to take a hit for someone else. But she did, for Enid. And that was a curveball I didn't see coming. The Ximena I knew was all about herself. Her taking an arrow for Enid? That was new. And troubling and that makes my heart ache even more. What the hell was she driving at? First she deviates from the plan and now she takes an arrow for him? Pathetic being. "Maybe I should go see Enid," I said out loud. But the next second, I snorted at the idea. I couldn't s
EnidLike strawberry Clover called to tell me that Courtney had information about where we could find the herb we needed, and that I was required to meet them at our designated spot. I felt really stinky so I hurried home to freshen up. As I approached the door, I overheard Marcella and Alexis conversing. Initially, I ignored them until Alexis mentioned something about Mildred being dead.Dead?I knew that Marcella disliked Mildred greatly, the thought of Marcella wishing her harm unsettled me. I mean, I really liked Marcella, she was like my own sister but this isn’t going to be accepted by me. I turned towards the voices, and my intense gaze locked onto Marcella, causing fear to flicker in her eyes. After a few seconds of silence, I turned away, deciding to address the situation later. I was pressed for time and couldn't deal with their drama right now. However, I made a mental note to have a chat with Alexis to caution her about the consequences of her words. It was something th
ENIDEnid is in love! I gripped the steering wheel iron tight as I sped through the streets, moving at an incredible speed as my heart pounded with urgency. Oh please let nothing happen to Mildred, I cursed myself for not giving her the attention and love she deserved and now I was about to lose her.No I won’t.The sun had begun to set, casting long shadows over the cobblestone roads. My heart thumping against my ribs for Mildred, my sweet glass of wine. Yes I said that. That’s how I feel about her now..I increased my speed hoping to get to the hospital as fast as I could, I was positive that she would come back to me. I was so sure about it.I am not one to bother about things but at the moment, she mattered to me so much that I began to mumble some words of prayer.“I will not forgive myself if anything happens to her” I didn’t even know that I said it out loud until I heard Clover say— “she’s not going to die” I smiled out, a bit embarrassed, I was consumed by my emotions,
MILDREDTHE NEW ENIDLying in a hospital bed, my head was full of foggy thoughts. I didn't remember much, except for a scary darkness that had swallowed me whole while I was holding onto Enid.Every part of me hurt, but hearing Enid's voice was like a warm hug. Seeing him next to me made me feel safe and happy, even though I was so confused. I kind of expected him to be mad at me because we had gotten into trouble again, and he really didn't like it when that happened.But Enid? Mad? Not this time. He seemed so real and caring. I looked into his eyes, really hard, to see if he was just pretending. What I saw was surprising – it was like he actually cared a lot. It felt like a dream, the good kind, because Enid was being so sweet.I had to pinch myself. Enid had always been tough on me, sometimes even mean, making me feel small and not pretty. And now here he was, doing and saying things that made my heart race. It was like he was a whole new person.The kindness in his voice, the ge
MARCELLAEXPOSE XIMENAThe news of Ximena waking up from coma had spread like wild fire. Everyone was talking about it and it was really getting to me. Enid hasn’t gotten back home since yesterday and I know it’s because that butch is awakesIt really hit me hard. I was thrilled at the thought of her dying and letting me have Enid all to myself, but that lunatic had to wake up. I felt helpless, wondering how she survived a poisoned arrow. She just doesn’t want to go away as we agreed, but I’ll make her . Enid's attention has fully shifted back to Ximena, ruining all my plans. I wanted to seduce Enid, have his child, and be his wife, not just his sister as he sees me. It was so frustrating. I sat alone in a café with my whiskey, feeling bitter and resentful. The café I wanted to share with Enid was now a lonely place for me."Why won't you just disappear, Ximena? You're ruining everything," I muttered under my breath, the bitterness seeping through my words. "I had it all planned out,
MILDREDI WONThe day I was finally leaving the hospital had arrived. I breathed in the fresh air outside, feeling the warm sun on my skin after what seemed like a long time inside the hospital's plain walls.Enid walked with me towards the car and opened the door with a kind smile. It was still new to see him caring for me, but it made me happy."I'm so glad to be leaving the hospital. If I had to stay inside and look at those plain walls and ceiling for any longer, I might have gone crazy," I said, my voice weak but full of thanks.I hadn't fully regained my strength yet, which was expected since I lost a lot of blood. It would take some time for me to fully recover, but I already felt stronger.Since waking up from the coma, I felt much lighter, like I had let go of a burden and was free from some chains.Enid started the car, helped me fasten my seatbelt, and then surprised me with a sweet kiss on my lips."Let's go home," he said, driving away.HOME, those words brought up emotion
ENIDELIAS?The first rays of dawn filtered through the curtains, casting a soft golden glow over the room where I laid peacefully, I stirred, waking up from my sleep , squinting my eyes to adjust to the bright room.I stretched my body only to feel a gently warmth beside my body, the gentle rhythm of her breathing mingling with mine.I turned around to see Mildred sleeping peacefully beside me, her hands on my shoulder as she practically slept on half of my body.I found himself staring into the beautiful face of Mildred, her features softened by the light of the morning, he lashes softly resting on her cheeks and and her lips in a cute pout.Goddamn! How didn’t I see all of this gorgeousness all these while? What had blinded me? Memories of the previous night flooded back to me and a smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I recalled the passion we had shared.She wasn’t bad in bed, it seemed like she was waiting for this moment. I know she was. Mildred has always wanted my hands
MARCELLAENID IS MINESeated in a cozy nook at the lively Green Lights Café, my mind buzzed with a mix of excitement and nerves. Today was the big day - I was meeting Molly, and I could feel the anticipation building inside me.Looking around the café, I spotted Molly making her entrance. She was wearing a pretty dress with floral patterns, though I couldn't help but feel that mine was a bit more stunning. Despite her cute appearance, I sensed a hint of desperation and calculation in her eyes. It was clear that she was eager to become a part of Alexis and my inner circle.As Molly made her way over to our table, I braced myself for what was to come. Today was the day I would finally uncover the truth about Marcella."Marcella, it's wonderful to see you again," Molly greeted warmly, planting a kiss on my cheeks as she settled into the seat across from me. Her proximity made me uncomfortable; after all, she wasn't quite part of our group yet."It's a pleasure, Molly. Thank you for meeti
MILDREDTHE END.I sat on a bench at the burial ground, surrounded by the peaceful silence of nature. In front of me lies the grave of my beloved sister, Ximena. I took a deep breath and began to speak, as if she's still with me."Ximena, it's been a year since you left us. I know you're no longer here, but I need to tell you everything that's happened. I need to make sure you know how much we've accomplished, how much we've healed."Elias and Naveah, they thought they could get away with taking you from us, but they were wrong. Enid and I worked together to bring them to justice. They're now serving life sentences with hard labor. Molly, who was sheepishly helping them, was released and came to me asking for forgiveness. I forgave her, and we've moved on. Marcella, who was also involved, was released but left the pack in shame. Elder Remy, Elias' accomplice, was given a one-year jail term and was banished from the pack as soon as he was released.I paused, looking at her grave."Toda
MILDREDFINALLYI woke up to a knock on the door, my heart was still heavy with grief and I didn’t expect that anyone would be at my door this early. My heart still aches badly. I had only met my twin sister,the Ximena I thought I was impersonating all along, I didn’t know that she was my other half, I had the opportunity to meet her, how could she even be gone already? This doesn’t even make sense!She was taken from me in an instant, by a bullet meant even for me. I felt very guilty even until this moment. I grumbled as I got out of bed and made my way to the door. Vanessa stood outside, her face looking really somber.I looked at Vanessa for a moment, then nodded and walked back to my bed. She suddenly hugged me tightly and burst into tears. I tried to hold back my tears, but I couldn't. We both cried for a while. Then, she held my hands and looked at me with sad eyes. "Someone is here to see you, Mildred," she said softly. "Who is it?" I asked, my voice barely audible. "Just c
MILDRED RIP XIMENA "Oh no, Ximena! Please wake up! We've just found each other, don't leave me now!" I screamed, my voice shaking desperately. Ximena's body lay limp on the ground, her eyes closed, her chest bleeding from the gunshot wound. "Take this madman away!" Enid yelled, and the police dragged Elias away, wresting the gun from his hand. Ximena's eyes flickered open, and she gazed at me with tears streaming down her face. "I'm so glad I found you, sister," she whispered, her voice weak. "Navaeh took me from our mother when we were babies. She used us being twins and that fact that it was a taboo and we will be killed if disclosed to blackmail me, but I'm free now." I held her hand, my heart breaking into a thousand pieces. "Don't worry, Ximena, you'll be okay. We'll get you to the hospital, and you'll survive this." But Ximena's smiled, even though I could see how sad she was through her eyes. "It's too late, Mildred. The bullet hit my heart. I'm sorry...there's nothi
MILDREDHE PULLED THE TRIGGER!"This is it, Marcella! You're going to pay for all the suffering you've caused me!" I snarled, my hand cracking against her cheek in a resounding slap. "And that's for Ximena! I turned my icy gaze on Navaeh, my eyes blazing with pain and fury. "Navaeh," I spat, my voice dripping with venom. She cowered, her body trembling like a leaf, as she beheld the wrath in my eyes. This was the moment I had been waiting for, the moment of reckoning."You treated me like dirt, Navaeh! You made me feel worthless, always favoring your own daughter, Molly, over me. You never cared about my well-being, only your own selfish interests."“Errmm, I…I…” Navaeh tried to speak, but I wouldn't let her. "No, you don't get to talk! You sent me out into the night, alone and vulnerable. If not for destiny, I would have never met Enid. You would have gotten me killed by gunmen or kidnappers because you obviously wouldn’t have paid a dime to get me out of there"My voice cracked w
ENIDMILDRED AND XIMENA ARE TWINSElder Remy's face turned beet red with rage. "You've betrayed the pack, Enid! You lied about Ximena! You're a disgrace to the throne!"Mildred dropped to her knees, pleading with the elders. "Please, have mercy! Enid had no part in this. I deceived everyone, I pretended to be Ximena. I'll accept my punishment, but spare him!"I watched, frustrated, as Mildred took the blame. Didn't she realize she was making things worse? I thought she had learned to think before acting, but apparently not. I felt a surge of annoyance, wanting to tell her to stop, to let me handle it. But I kept my cool, knowing that would only make things worse.Remy's harsh words towards Mildred ignited my anger. "Shut up!" he barked, and my blood boiled. How dare he disrespect my mate?Mildred's attempts to take the blame only made Remy more furious. "You're not fooling anyone, this was a plan between you and Enid. You'll face a harsher punishment," he snarled, ordering the guards
MILDRED OFFCOURSE SHE IS NOT XIMENA I paced back and forth in the room, my mind racing with questions. Why did Enid look so worried? What could be so important that he had to cut our night short? We had plans, plans that didn't involve returning to the pack's headquarters until whenever. I felt a knot in my stomach, my wolf senses tingling with unease. As I paced, my feet carried me to the window, where I gazed out into the night. The stars twinkled, but my eyes saw only darkness. My thoughts were a jumbled mess, my emotions raw. I couldn't believe what Enid had just revealed - that my stepmother, Navaeh, had locked my wolf away all these years. The pain and anger I felt were overwhelming. Eventually, my back ached from pacing, and I collapsed onto the bed, covering myself with the duvet. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes, and I let them fall, my body shaking with silent sobs. I didn't know how long I cried, but exhaustion finally claimed me, and I drifted off into a f
ENIDMILDRED HAS A WOLFI couldn't contain my excitement. Today was going to be very beautiful and I just couldn't wait. I don't want to spill the tea to Mildred so I just asked her to get dressed but has been trying to ruin the surprise with too many questions."Where are we going?" she asked for the upteenth time, her eyes sparkling with curiosity."Somewhere special," I replied, my smile growing wider. "Just trust me."She laughed and chatted as she got ready, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of joy being around her. I helped her into the car and asked her to stay quiet.I signaled Courtney and she injected her with a sedative. I thanked Courtney and we drove to the forest, where Danda, a powerful shaman, was waiting for us.*"Mildred's wolf has been locked away," Danda revealed, his eyes looking serious. "Her stepmother's doing, no doubt." I was so shocked, how can someone penetrate such cruelty? What could she have done for him to have done that? She deserves to be punishe
ELIASTHE CAT’S OUTTA THE BAG!I swirled the wine in my glass, the rich aroma filling my senses as I sat in Elder Remy's cozy sitting room. The warm glow of the fireplace lighting the room and it made it exude an aura of wealth, but my mind was far from at ease.I summoned the Elder himself, elder Remy had so much power and influence in the pack and I knew he would be the best person to help me with this. My thoughts raced with the weight of the secret I carried - the truth about Ximena. Or rather, the imposter who had been masquerading as her.I took a sip of the wine, the flavors dancing on my tongue as I gathered my thoughts. How could I break the news to Elder Remy, to the entire pack, that the woman they believed was their beloved Ximena was a fraud? That Enid, of all people, had been deceiving them all?I began to have double thoughts. What if that scares them and they deny me the throne too since we are related and have same bloodline? Not possible! They will trust me and see
MARCELLAPLAN BI sobbed like a child who had been denied chocolate, feeling helpless and defeated. Elias's betrayal cut me really deep, and I couldn't bear the thought of him ruining my reputation with whatever video he took of me, but Alexis's warm embrace and gentle words of encouragement comforted me. "Marcella, it's not the end of the world," she said, trying to make me feel better. "We'll find a way to make it through this without Elias soiling your name."I looked up at her, tears streaming down my face. "But how? He's going to ruin me, Alexis. I've come too far to let him win." My voice cracked, and I felt fresh hot tears tingling at the corners of my eyes.Alexis' facial gesture changed, I could tell an idea had clicked. "We'll set him up, Marcella. I'll act like I want to get down with him, and then I'll raise an alarm, saying he tried to molest me. We'll turn the tables on him, and he'll be the one who's left looking bad."I sniffled, considering her plan. It was risky, bu
