Zoe’s POV

“No, that isn’t fair,” the maid beside Sarah mumbled, “No one knows what happened.”

“We were all there, Zoe exposed her,” Sarah retorted while rolling her eyes.

“She was a disgrace to the pack, the mind to poison her stepmother?” she scoffed.

“You can’t just conclude that way… what if?

Sarah cut the other girl of, “What if what? What if she wasn’t sleeping around disgracing the Alpha? Or what if there was no secret? What if she didn’t reject her mate a day before their wedding?”

“Exactly Sarah! The ‘what ifs’ are many and we shouldn’t slander a dead girl when we don’t even know the truth,” she said shaking her head out of pity.

“She was a nice girl who would not tarnish the image of her father unlike…” she paused to look around, “unlike that bitch that one has to walk on edges around,” her cheeks curved up in a dry smirk.

I couldn’t believe my ears. Did a maid just call me ‘bitch?’ Since the duo couldn’t see me or sense me, I decided to lean closer to the kitchen door and l

    **********----------**********“Hey love,” he called out seductively. “Where have you been leaving this gorgeous man all alone?”I walked closer to him, pulling off the jacket and biting my lower lips softly, “Hmmm… How much does this gorgeous man miss me?” I said, sitting on his lap, and running my fingers through his hair.“So much to make you rush down here upon hearing my voice,” he said, tickling me with his firm fingers.“You literally scared me, you know,” I said, placing a kiss on his temple and continuing to run my fingers down his neck.“You left me all day long, I needed to draw your attention,” his coarse voice was making my garden jolt in excitement.“What do you desire?” I kissed his plum lips which he returned as he drew me closer. “You… You are my desire,” he mumbled as he ran his fingers down my spine, sending jitters through my body.“She never made you feel this way right?” I muttered as I pushed him to the bed while taking off my dress revealing my body. I made su

    Leonard’s POV“Help me. Keep my secret. I would do anything you want,” her eyes pleading as desperation etched into every line of her face.The memories of that night won’t stop playing in my head. I had felt the urge to reveal her true identity, to tell the world that the woman is not who they all think she is.“I didn’t ask for this. I’ve been trying to make a sense of it ever since,” she had said with so much confusion in her voice. Yet, her words made no sense to me.The more I think about that night, the more hatred I feel towards her. What if all she told me were lies? A part of me desperately wished it was all a scheme or prank.She’s responsible for all the mess happening to me now, yet a part of me wants to know the truth. What truth lies behind her story?As much as I hate to admit it, I know she had said the truth about being a different soul in the body of my Liza, but it’s so much confusing that my wolf still draws me to her.“They are gone!” Derek’s voice streamed throu

    Annabel’s POV“Happy birthday Dad,” I giggled as I wrapped him in the most warm embrace you can imagine. He reciprocated by pulling me closer and grinned like a baby.The hallway was filled with members of the Glassland pack, and different members of other packs who had come to felicitate with Dad. Blazing music was at its pitch, people chatting, laughing, and vibing to the music. Everyone seemed so happy.The party had begun and the servers were everywhere making sure everyone had what they wanted. Whoever walked into the hallway would know that the party was well-planned and anticipated.People came bearing gifts for Dad, a gesture that I found so kind and nice. Unlike many packs, the members would come to dine, whine, and leave without any present to their Alpha.“She looks so hot…” “She is so pretty…”“I love her dress…”I couldn’t help but hear the different comments splashing from different angles of the hall about me. As much as I enjoy the compliment and all, I wish they’d

    **********----------**********“No, Liza!” “Liza No!!!”A wave of confusion plagued my face as I tugged myself under the duvet. The next moment, I threw the duvet away out of frustration.“Not again!” I gasped, pausing for a second as I stared at the ceiling, confusion written all over me. I stretched forth my hands to the pillow and clung to it as if my life depended on it, blocking the ray of dawn that shimmered through the window.“What do I call this?” I asked no one in particular. The look on his face was taunting and I foolishly wished I knew what happened next.Sluggishly, I sat up on my bed, taking a deep breath to stabilize myself. “It’s nothing serious right?” I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to convince myself this meant nothing.The same dream that keeps plaguing my sleep means nothing. The fact that I keep seeing Leo in my dreams and seeing myself as Liza means nothing. And Amma?Who the heck is Amma? Where do I go in search of answers to my numerous answers? A wave of

    Leonard’s POVJudging by the look on their faces immediately I entered the meeting room, they were not expecting to be called upon at such an odd hour. Well, not like I give a f**k about how they feel.They all stood and bent their heads in submission while I motioned them to have their seats.I hate the fact that these old geese pretend so well, it gets on my nerves to see them act like all is going on smoothly. Yet I was ready to play the game with them.“We were able to apprehend the rogues who attacked Blue Moon Pack…” I scanned them from the corner of my eyes and saw some flicker in their gazes.A smirk sneaked its way to the corners of my lips as one of them looked bothered about what I had said.“Hmmmm…” I heard someone clear their throat and adjusted his tie out of fear. I was getting a lead, but what’s the fun in catching them just like that?Because some of them missed the meeting, it was a clue they were scared to face the consequences of their actions, running away from t

    Following the scent was easy, but driving out the shoppers wasn’t as they all thought we had cheated them with our status in society.“A VIP session please,” Oriel had insisted that we wanted to shop without any third party. That was the only way to save the day.The attendants had agreed without much contemplation. I guess it’s always about the money for humans.Well, I had followed the scent of the rogue who had done his job and left the store. I disconnected the time bomb that was supposed to explode if we had delayed a minute. I’m still fazed at how I remember every detail of this day. Oriel and Chris had expressed how happy they were to see that I was gradually getting my memory back.“Are you going to sit there forever?” Oriel’s voice suddenly brought me back to reality.I impulsively jumbled a few words that weren’t audible. Even I didn’t know what I wanted to say.“Get your lazy ass off that bed,” this time she was technically screaming as she dragged me off the bed, pushing

    I tried to look back, but Oriel’s voice caused me to halt. “You are so silly Liza, I almost fell for that,” her words spilled out once she chugged down her shot. Discomfort swept through my being like running water as the eerie gaze was still fixed on me. I felt like taking my leave, but didn’t also want to spoil Oriel’s fun. Since we decided to have some drinks before heading back home, I could as well just pretend all was well.“Look who we have here!” Jade’s voice buzzed across as he wrapped his arms around Oriel in a friendly hug. He probably wouldn’t have passed for your popular models, but he’s definitely as hot as smoke. He was simply dressed in a crisp white shirt and a brown pant which complemented his faultless face.“We have Liza here?” it was more of a statement than a question as he extended his hand to me. I shook his hand, returning his smile.“You ladies aren’t going to sit and just drink, are you?” he asked as he askedas he gazed at us curiousily.“We’d be taking…

    Leonard’s POVTo say I was disorganized during my meeting was to put it mildly. Lucil won’t stop to pace up and down my mind.I tried keeping calm and composed to make sure the meeting ran smoothly. The whole time I was literally muttering inaudible words to keep Lucil calm, but it was all to no avail.For a split moment, Lucil was calm and I had thought whatever was disturbing him had been resolved. But what happened next was nothing short of tranquility.“Arrrrghhhh…” Lucil howled so loud like he’d been injured. If I didn’t know better, I would have said the whole room could hear him howl.“You need to leave this meeting now,” he said with a strong resolve as if we’d discussed me going anywhere before.I was confused as to what was going on with my wolf. “The meeting isn’t ending anytime soon. You have to keep calm and allow me to concentrate,” “No! You need to get going right now. End this meeting!” he was back to pacing up and down. Arrrhg… f**k distraction!Shoving aside his wor

    I gladly hopped on the boat that would sail me to the limelight in the presence of these gullible people gathered.“If you claimed to have given her something to counter the effect of the deadly injection, then how come she's proclaimed dead? Where is she?”Olive flinched at the sound of my yell. I didn't mean to startle her, it was meant for Zoe who stood still beside me.Her feet stuck to the ground like glue. I could feel her vibrating beside me, her only prayer- may Tammy be dead. Not only was she scared, she felt embarrassed. If Tammy is alive? She's done for.The silence that followed from Olive gave her a taste of hope until it was dashed like it was never there,“There she is,” Olive said quietly and Tammy walked towards us.“There's a ghost!” Someone from the crowd shouted.I detest standing these people, but since I can't say it to their face? I'd have to keep playing along.How can someone be so dumb to say, “Here comes the one who had seen the moon goddess and she's back

    Alex's POV Playing along as if Tammy was in real danger was fun. I mean, what else could be more interesting than the look of rejoicing on Zoe's face?She looked like the whole world had come to worship her in her glory and graciousness.On our way to the hospital, she kept sighing and acting so weird.To others, especially those who haven't had a personal encounter with her, she was being sympathetic and being a ‘good Luna who cares for her people.As for the ones who had met ‘Zoe’ they knew it was all a façade. Looking at the situation we met at the hospital- people were gradually gathering together to know what was going on.Side talks about Tammy passing on and how good she was.“I'm afraid she won't make it this time around Alpha,” the doctor said in a professional yet sympathetic tone.“No Doctor, you can't say that. You have no idea what this family has been through just to see that young woman hale and hearty,“We can't lose her like that, Doctor. You have to do something ab

    Now, I began to understand what Tricia was trying to say. If one had gotten injured by those arrows, you'd end up in their den.By luck, if you don't, you won't get far. Because the arrows were laced with poison.Maybe they aren't as dumb as I thought. But sadly, they are no match for this opponent of theirs.They are still learning. “What the h*** was that?” Derek blurted out deeply, trying to catch his breath.“Are you seriously breathing so heavily? You must have gone weak bro,” I teased“Are you kidding me? Do you think I have gone weak? Have you seen the way your biceps keep heaving up and down?” He burst into laughter I joined in the laughter, “Man, your weakness is as a result of your loneliness,” A scoff instantly left his mouth, and that's him dismissing the topic I was trying to bring up. “Loneliness you say? That's so rich coming from you. But not to worry, Derek got you always,” he playfully spanked my shoulder“You know if I didn't know better, I would say something is

  • Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge    CHAPTER 52 RED MOON PACK

    Leo's POV As much as I love to watch offenders suffer, I don't normally torture them myself. I love to watch how they break and forsake all they used to stand for. But for a few occasions when it pleases me? I torture them myself. “She keeps asking and pleading that she sees you,” Derek broke the silence that's been sitting soothingly.Like an uninterested lover in his spouse's ranting, I kept my face right on what we were working on, and “why?” Came my response.“I don't think I have the right answer to that. I'm sorry,” what's he sorry for? Derek!“So, she's just whining to see me without a reason. Why should I grant her request then?” I asked curiously “The guards keep saying throughout her torture, she wouldn't stop saying she's got something important to tell you and she can't say it to them,” Well, after hearing that- maybe I should go hear whatever she has to say. She had given us a rough mental sketch of their hideout, or at least where she had been initiated. I wondere

  • Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge    CHAPTER 51 A TEAM OF FIVE

    Chris' POVI set out of the pack after one of my men told me about a lead to their hideout.I know Liza didn't fully buy the whole idea of staying behind with Oriel, but what I didn't expect was for them to tail me.I could sense their scent so strongly and I don't know why it's that way. Maybe it's because I'm used to the two being around me a lot.I kept going, never for once did I make them feel like I knew about their presence.Getting to the thick woods, I was attacked by a group of rogues. I didn't want to hurt them.Truth is, lately, I've been feeling more powerful than usual. It's as if my body is going through a face of transfiguration.I've avoided training with Liza for this very course- I do not want to hurt her.And that's why I've stretched my hand of peace to these rogues the moment they had me in their ring.But I couldn't just stand and watch them come at me, especially when I was on a mission.So, when one of them charged at me, I humbled him. Thinking that's all? So

    Oriel’s POVI watched with keen patience and looked less interested as Liza and Chris went back and forth.If not for the situation at hand, I would have made huge fun of their childish bantering.But what can I say? These two look like siblings fighting for someone's attention sometimes. And if I didn't know better, I would have considered them siblings and not friends.I know they are both worried about how I'm processing the whole thing, but what about them?Seeing the two work tirelessly to make sure the culprits are served the justice that they deserve makes me feel bad doing nothing but scare away.I won't even lie, the whole Morningstar event shook me up a lot and if not for Liza coming into my room the time she did, I wonder what I would have done to myself.But I can't complain about being blessed with people who care about me so much. Can I?As for Liza, I know she is doing this because she feels responsible for what is happening right now, but far from it, I do not blame he

    Chris confirmed he had seen the same tattoo on the man who had come into the party and attacked Oriel.The pieces are gradually coming together, we can say, but it's still not making much sense to me.This is to what end? What's this madness for? Why me? Why Oriel? Is there more to this? How did they know where to find us? Who helped me the other night?So many questions with no clear answers. I thought I was done fighting in my past life. But clearly one keeps fighting as long as you live.“How did you know about this, Liza?” Chris inquired.“Well, the other day we went to Morningstar lounge and then, we got a note. It didn't mean much except for the drawing that caught my eyes,”Chris is a goddamn good listener, he never interrupted as I went on filling him on what had happened when he was away.“The note said ‘curious? Be patient,’ but then this same drawing was at the edge of the note,”“I decided to look into it ‘cos I felt I had seen it somewhere. Then, I realized I saw it on th

    Without hesitation, I picked up my phone and on the third peep, the call was connected.“Thank goddess you called. You must be a mind reader now, ‘cos I was about to call you myself,” Chris' voice came sharp on the other end.“Ohhhh… that sounds cool. Why were you planning to call me? Can it wait? I have something urgent I need to let you and Oriel on,” It's urgent and for some weird reasons, I want to hear what Chris has to say first. He's been involved from the very beginning.I had dragged him into this unpleasant situation and he never for once complained. So, if there's something he needs me to do for him, I can spare him some time.“Well… why not this? Let's meet up at Oriels. I think that's better because she needs to hear this too,” he suggested but I could sense a bit of urgency in his voice.“That sounds like a plan, I'll be heading out now. See you soon,” the line went off and I drew my not-so-lazy body from the chair, picked up my notebook and headed out.I placed a subtl

    Liza's POV I sighed in utmost frustration. You know the kind that makes you feel like you aren't doing anything right no matter the level of sincerity and effort you put into getting something done.The number of times that I have huffed in the past week is so unhealthy. You can say I was going through a writer's block. It's been messy.Seems my head is not just a blocked head, it is as empty as a brokeass pocket.Why can't I just figure this out? Just a simple drawing… well, not that simple, but at least to whoever drew it, it was. So, why must it take forever to figure this out? They were right there in that lounge and I couldn't see them.I feel terrible looking at Oriel and the fear in her eyes. With my little time with Oriel, I know she's a strong lady, but this seems to be a bit too much for her.Imagine having such an encounter when she was so optimistic about finding her mate and boom! Out of nowhere, someone was unto her to molest and cause her so much pain.What if I hadn'
