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

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

“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

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

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

Alex’s POVThere is a huge thin line between insensitivity and feigning ignorance. Certainly, I know Zoe has something that she's hiding from me.But when did I become the one to compel her to talk? That has never been the case with us. She'll definitely spill it when she wants to.For sure, I know what she saw at the hospital is the reason why she decided to seal her lips and not say a word to me about whatever she wanted to tell me.But that is the least of my worries for now. The reason behind the sudden swearing-in might not make sense to Zoe, but that's not the case with me.“Alpha Danny is a d**n witty man,” I scoffed at the thought of the reason behind his action. No one saw it coming this quick.I had always known I would be the next Alpha of Spring pack but I never knew Alpha Danny would outsmart me and put me in charge while his motive was to make me a caged dog.“This man might think he's wise, but he doesn't know who he's playing a game with… it's Alex!”He might think he'
Last Updated : 2025-01-11Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 31 TO WHAT END?
Annabel’s POVSince Fiona eavesdropped on my conversation with Oriel, I've been extra careful of how I carry myself in the pack house.For all I care, she might have people spying on me. Yet, I am not ready to give them what they desperately want on a platter of gold.“You can always talk to me Liza, I'll be more than glad to give my ears,” those were her words to me just last night after dinner.She must think it's easy to trust and open up. But of what significance is doing so when everyone is going to desert you once they know you for who you are? The grande vibration from my phone ushered me back to reality. It was time for my meeting. I was already dressed and ready.The alarm ring sure came at the right time. Truth is, since my encounter with the mysterious being, I have become more serious with my training.One way to get the answers to my numerous and ocean-wide questions is to train my mind and body. Once I picked up my backpack and put my phone, a bottle of water and my jo

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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 54 I DID IT
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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 53 THE AVENGERS HIGHLIGHTER
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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 50 MOAN AGGRESSIVELY
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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 49 TO TERMS WITH THIS TRUTH
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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 48 YOU ARE NOT ALONE
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
Rebirth: Annabel's Revenge CHAPTER 47 SO-CALLED HOME
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'
