Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 15
**********----------**********“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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 18
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…
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 19
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

Oriel’s POV“Holy s**t! Can’t you face your front?”“Oh my bad… I’m so sorry,” I extended the handkerchief I was holding to the lady, but she spank my hand away from her.“Ouch!” I muttered. I was only trying to right my wrong. The drink she was holding spilled the moment I bumped into her.“You should watch where you are going girl,” she grunted as she stormed and walked away.The point is I wasn’t paying attention, I just wanted to meet Liza so we could head home.By now Alpha Nicholas would be worried we a

“Yes please… I am sorry-” his breath shaking. I released my grip on him, making him slump right into the chair.Jade let out a sigh of relief once I let go of my grip on his friend. A lingering silence followed as the boys all got the message, I wasn’t in the mood for any s****y attitude.Though I considered them cool and easy to vibe with, they should learn to respect boundaries and not talk ill of others. Especially when you don’t even know them well.My gaze roamed around as my mind scurried through the possible place Liza could be.“Have you checked the woods? She might have been bored and probably went for a walk in the woods…” the other guy said as he adjusted his seating position.I slowly nod my head. “I think you do have a point. Come to think of it, Liza likes taking a walk,” I smiled as realizing her possible location dawned on me.I sprang to my feet, emptied the last drop of champagne, and audibly muttered a thank you to the guy.“I’m off, guys. Thanks for the company. I
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 22
Leonard’s POVAllowing Lucil to be in control was the best decision I made. His passion for finding and rescuing her from whatever trouble was unmatched.I’ve never felt him so protective like this. It made me wonder if my wolf had been swapped without my consent or what.I don’t understand why he would care so much about someone whose identity is so shady. She’s fake and that’s the reality. The reality that Lucil is yet to accept.But the earlier Lucil realizes that the better for him. I don’t want him nagging and lecturing me about some mate’s bullshit.“Just this once Lucil,” I whispered, placing my hand on my ear. Hoping he’d listen to me. “We are never doing this again man. I know you are pretending not to hear me. But, this would be the first and last time I’d be dragged into this kind of situation,”I went on and on while Lucil chose to ignore my ranting. Lucil jumped the cliff that was supposed to be a barrier to entering this particular forest.My eyes widened. She can’t pos

Being mad at Alex was one thing and, having to sit close to Dad during dinner was another.I put on the pink dress Rita got for me as a gift on her way here. Applied some make-up on my face to hide the emotions raging within me.It was a family dinner, and as much as I don’t have to look like it’s my wedding, I do have to look good. I slid my feet into the silver shoe that Mum got me on my last birthday. Putting on the shoe did bring back some memories including ones that had Annabel in.I can’t believe I’ve got to worry about her even after her death. Final look into the mirror, I closed my eyes, inhaled, and exhaled. Repeatedly told myself, no Annabel today. Just show up for dinner like you always do, put on your best smile like always, and put away the thought of her.I walked out of the room with a wide smile plastered all over my face. Yes, that is the look that put away any form of suspicion from my end.“You look stunning love,” Alex’s comment came the moment I set my feet in

Zoe’s POVI opened the door, “Damn… he’s not here too,” I was disappointed to be met with his absence.Where else could he be? He only told me Dad had asked to see him, and now it’s like he’s disappeared from everywhere.He should be long done seeing my father. But I think the only way to be sure about that is to check.I closed the door behind me and started working towards my Father’s office. As much as I’ve been trying to avoid him, I needed to ask him about Alex’s whereabouts.With each step toward my Dad’s office, I kept reminding myself I had to see him in order to see Alex.As long as he goes on talking about possible investigations into Annabel’s death, I will keep avoiding him as much as I can.I gently placed my hand on the doorknob and before I could turn it and go in, I heard what I needed. I instantly turned back.He was with someone and in the middle of their conversation, he had mentioned Alex’s whereabouts.Of all places to be, why would he be there?“Hey girl,” Rita’s

“Anny!” Fiona’s voice jerked me back to the present. “Oh… hi,” a fake smile dangling on my face.She moved close, her hands on my shoulder, “Can I have a sit?” her eyes fixed on me.“Yeah… sure. I mean, why not,” batting my eyelashes with each word I said. I ran my sweaty palms all over my pants.With the look in her eyes, it was pretty obvious she was concerned about what was happening to me.“Are you okay?” she took time. Enough time to drag each word and make them stick to my brain. “I am not okay Fiona. I am great!” a wide smile was all over my face, and my cheeks widened to the sides, revealing my really nice dentition.I inwardly prayed she buy the whole lie and let it slide. “Okay… just that you seemed to have zoned out. You know I was calling on you for a while, and you didn’t hear me,” she sighed heavily.“And right now, you look like something is bothering you. Did anything happen at the party?” she inquired, “Anything that I or your father should know about?”She knows how
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 26
Annabel’s POVIt’s been days since the party event. Oriel told me how I was found lying alone in the woods. I wondered who saved me.According to Oriel, there were no traces of who hurt me or of the one who came to my aid. One thing I know for sure is that whoever saved me, took care of the blonde guy.Oriel had smuggled us through the back door, so, no one knew what happened at the party or that we were out in the first place.It’s a good thing they aren’t aware. I don’t want anyone to get worked up about me. I need to level up my game and start finding answers to my numerous questions.Suppose I can’t have the man I had loved with my whole heart in my previous life. I can at least seek to know the truth about my identity.My mind took a journey back to that night. Most of her words sounded mysterious, but what I saw felt real. I wonder if I was really sane at the time.“You are too blind to see the potential of being Liza and Annabel, aren’t you?” I remember vividly the contempt in
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 25
Zoe’s POVOh… no… not on my wedding day! I imagined myself screaming down the whole place. But I can’t contribute to making this day a disaster.Why bother about whatever happened outside? The priest already pronounced me and Alex as a couple.I watched with total disgust and hatred for the girl who ran in to cause such commotion. Looking at her sternly, I realized she was the girl I had punished alongside Sarah the other day.Her sharp mouth had gotten her into the mess, and a part of me just wished she hadn’t gotten into a deeper mess.If at all this whole thing happens to be a prank or payback for what I did to her, then she must have a death wish. I muttered under my breath.People started flocking out to see what happened outside and why she called out for help.“And where do you think you are going?” I asked Alex who was about to leave me and join everyone.He looked at me like I had asked the wrong question. But I honestly didn’t care. Who leaves their bride just because some

Zoe’s POVI looked at the exact replica of the dress I admired right from the day I set my eyes on it. Following Annabel to the store was not out of free will. I had gone to see her dress, and I couldn’t help but admit, she got eyes for nice things.She had Alex, she had the most beautiful wedding dress. She had all that I admire.I smiled at the thought of her finally out of my breathing space. “She’s no more your competitor Zoe,” I belly-laughed, “the nonentity is gone… gone forever,”My hand ran through the perfectly crafted neckline of my wedding dress, which was made of shining bridal lace. The dress was exquisitely overflowing from the back. Diamond diamond pearls meticulously covered the underburst right to the waistline.Besides the trimmings flowing from the top right side of the second length down to the hem of the dress, it’s almost sheer at the back was my favorite part of the dress.A knock on the door brought me out of my reverie. While trying to collect myself and let

No matter how strong the pull is, I’m never allowing her in my heart. She’s not deserving of me or my Luna title.A Luna is someone who sticks by your side, fights by your side, and stays with you while you lead the people.She’s no Luna material. Though inhabiting the body of someone who was my mate, her soul is not my mate’s soul. That is enough reason to kill every form of affection towards her.“You see this… this right here is one of the reasons I can never feel any affection towards you,” I said to her while picking the tip of my nose. “Who comes into the woods with a stranger you met at a party?”I tilted her head to the side, expecting a reply from her.I know it’s not possible as she had passed out, but I wonder how gullible she could be to land in this messy situation.“Aren’t you so daft?” my brows raised, “you should learn to do a good job hiding your identity,” I muttered, “If you continue to act so gullible like this, they’ll find out sooner or later,” I scoffed.“Do you
