Annabel’s POV

“Pretty Liza, up for a challenge?” I instantly looked back to be met by the view of a grinning Chris.

If there’s one thing I like about this park, it’s surely Chris. I still feel unsafe with people, but there is this peace I can’t place my hands on around him.

“Sure! Why not? I replied with a subtle smile on my face.

We chatted as we walked down to the arena that is situated in the middle of the park. The arena has so many segments, ranging from adult warriors, kids, the Alpha family, the Beta family, and the general arena for members of the park.

My gaze drifted to the kids' arena and it caught sight of a little boy fighting with all his might, he kept standing after every pull-down. His actions made me stop in my tracks.

“Isn’t it funny how these kids have such great dreams at such tender ages?” Chris asked as I stopped walking.

“I find it amusing Chris,” my mind flashed back to the dream I used to have as a kid, and nostalgia settled on my face for a second. “I’m gla

    Leonard’s POVDerek shot me a deadly glare once he entered my study running his gaze up and down like a detective. “Don’t tell me…” he trailed off. “Drop the topic, Derek,” I said as I picked up the last document on the floor.Truth be told, no one would have noticed anything off about my study if not for Derek.Asking a maid to do the cleaning would have been a nice idea, but that would mean one thing, my parents knowing I was around and bombarding me with questions about when I’d be settling down with my own Luna. A conversation I so much detest at the moment. “You did again?” his voice came to a little above whisper with an annoying smirk playing his cheeks.Sometimes I wonder how he’s my best friend and my future Beta. Being the future Alpha of the most dreaded Pack in the North comes with so many burdens and responsibilities, hence the need to have loyal subjects.Derek has been one of those people that can be trusted and if not for his loyalty and how he has grown to be the bro

    Annabel’s POVThe warmth of the morning sunlight sent me a warm kiss as I opened my eyes. Soft, golden rays peeked through the curtains, enveloping me with an uplifting energy. I feel better with each passing day. The ballet lessons with the girls have been nothing short of amazing. I was a bad dancer in my past life, but now I dance effortlessly and even teach.I had always wanted to learn ballet as a child and was mum was ready to teach me how to dance. Unfortunately, I had lost her before we could hold any lesson on ballet.“Once mini Anny is here, mum is going to teach big Anny ballet.” those were her words, the promise she didn’t get to keep.For a second, I clung to my sheets, I miss her so much. I wish she hadn’t left, I wouldn’t be in this mess. Dad wouldn’t have married that evil woman and Alex wouldn’t have cheated on me with Zoe.I checked the time and it was past eight, I stood up to have a warm bath. As the water cascaded down my body washing away the night’s slumber, I

    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

    Chris' POV “Twenty years ago, a few years after Liza was born. On a rainy day, an uninvited and unexpected guest visited-”Alpha Nicholas had started his narrations about how he had always known who my father was.A sudden rush of anger hooked me in my seat.And all I could think of the whole night was the unveiling truth that sucks.“So, a woman had dropped me in your pack and you allowed her?” I asked in total annoyance “She didn't stay. If she did, I would have asked her to leave with you, but she didn't,” I wiped my eyes with my palms “She dropped you at my doorstep in the middle of the night and left. It was not until morning that I was told about you,” he tried to make it sound less trivial “Why didn't you just throw me away then? Why?” He sighed in-depth, “Because I couldn't do it Chris. Liza was so happy to have someone she could call a brother around her,” he sounded hurt.I hate that. I should be the one hurting and not him.“I later looked into the woman that dropped y

    “Now… I get that, but how is Chris the son of an Alpha and he's… he's…”Oriel couldn't bring closure to her statement, she stammered as her fingers pointed right to Chris.“It's a long story, my dear,” Dad said, expecting that that would take away the well of curiosity in Oriel.I held my breath in shock. Chris is my brother?The urge to hug him tight and ask how he's been doing for the past twenty years sprouted within me.Yet, I couldn't say a word, I couldn't bring myself to look in his direction. My emotions ran wild and I felt so sorry I wasn't a part of his childhood.The plan was to be a present sister. A sister who would love her brother to the moon and back, but that plan never saw the dawn of the day.Just like we are having dinner tonight, it was the same setting years back.Just a family of three, myself, Dad and Mum. Enjoying a nice meal and each other's company.“Who do you love most between Da and Mum?” Dad asked over dessert “Dad and Mum,” I replied with my focus on

    Liza's POV It was not strange that Dad asked everyone to be present at tonight's dinner.“This dinner has always been a ritual in the family,” Amma informed me when I asked why we always had to have dinner together once everyone was around.Chris lives a stone's throw from us, and whenever he isn't out working, he must show up for dinner.As for Oriel? She only misses dinner when she's not around or out with friends.But tonight, she had to cancel her plans because Dad demanded that we all be present.“Do you think Oriel would like the dress I got for her?” I asked Amma“She likes bright colours, I'm sure she'd love them, and who can tell, she might be busy blushing and gushing over the dress now,” Amma calmed me downJust right on time, Oriel shrieked in excitement “Liza… this is so beautiful,” she ran over and held me in a tight hug that I had to beg her not to choke me I rolled my eyes once she released the grip. “I figure you'd want a new dress for dinner,” I smiled“Of course,

    “She's no good. I thought she'd be different,” he finally made a statement.His enthusiasm was bruised and hurt beyond redemption.“I, Chris accept your rejection Promise Quest,” I felt a sharp piercing pain run through my core.Like a shattered piece of glass, the weight of how unloved I was became prominent and a sweat broke out all over me.I watched in disbelief as she left with her chosen mate, hands interlocked while I stayed glued to the spot, cold.The pain became heavier when I realized I might never get to enjoy any of the perks of having a mate.I felt the need to run, to leave everything behind and never look back.Without considering the heavily pregnant cloud, I walked into an unknown destination.That night, Louis took charge and ran through the thick and heavy woods. Leaped over thorns and flowers, while the rain poured immensely.And when I had exerted the pain, I crumbled back into my little cubicle.“Dad asked for you to see him,” Liza, who had stepped aside to pick

    Chris' POV “That was refreshing,” she panted after the rigorous race we just had.“I know right… "It's been a while since I did this,” I replied to Liza who looked like she'd pass out any moment from now on.“Amma did the running, why are you the one gasping for breath?” I mocked and she gasped the more“Stop doing that,” I laughed“Well, since you are against me gasping for air, I figured I might just gasp the more,” she dragged her feetIt was in the cool of the evening and we decided to enjoy the scenery and the cool breeze of the woods.Oriel isn't here. Her best companion now is attending parties. I get it- being disappointed when you are supposed to meet your destined mate is no joke.You'd want to do everything to take your mind off the bitter memories. Sometimes, situations cause that pain like in Oriel's case and other times? You aren't just who they want. It's been two years and I don't blame her. Who would want to mate with an orphan? That makes no sense.I was over the

    Liza's POV Being back at home has been nothing short of pampering and love.Fiona has made it a priority to check on me every morning and feed me every second.I mean, literally, every second. “Liza, come have some fruits,”“Liza, come taste this delicacy,”“Liza, I made pancakes,”“Liza, I bought you fresh yoghurt,”She would go on and on throughout the day, offering me one thing or the other to eat.Oriel and Chris made sure I was back to training.Yes, I finally get to enjoy the perks of having a strong wolf.Amma is a fighter, she fought for us and I'm proud of her.She constantly reminds me of someone I never thought would want to fight for me.But miraculously and surprisingly, they now fight for me. “I want to fight alongside you,” his words re-echoed in my mind.“If making them pay is the only barrier between us, I'm down with taking that barrier out of our way,”I watched as he went on to say those supportive and encouraging words.They made me feel like I wasn't just an im

    Zoe's POV Alex has been working more than usual and due to the timing, I can't figure out why.I was hoping we'd visit the Pack’s clinic together today, but just at the slightest minute, be bailed on me.“Babe, are you going somewhere?” I asked when I noticed he wasn't preparing for our visitation. “Have you forgotten I have responsibilities to take care of as the Alpha of this Pack?” He answered aggressively.I took a deep breath to calm my nerves. Standing on my feet, I moved closer to him and helped button up his shirt.“I know you have lots of work to take care of, but we spoke about visiting the Pack's clinic together.He didn't waver in his stoic look. “Yes, we spoke about visiting and I didn't say you shouldn't go. Did I?” He asked with no iota of care or concern“Alex, this is my-” he didn't allow me to finish my statement before he cut me off “And so what? Someone has to keep the Pack running, isn't it? Or do you expect the whole pack members to start living inside the cli

    I sprung into immediate action the moment Liza's voice echoed through my mind.I just left her in about how many minutes and this is happening?"I'm coming right away. Do you want to leave here? So be it," I replied, hoping that would calm her down a bit before I got to her."Is anything the problem?" Oriel asked. I guessed she must have noticed a change in my countenance."Yes... Of course, everything is great," I lied. Well, I had to. I didn't want to get her agitated and worried. Liza has always wanted to leave her, and I knew it was a matter of time before she'd lose her patience.I can't blame her, given the relationship between her and Leo. But I thought they were getting along again.I have no understanding of what is going on. They were happy to learn that the Moon Goddess had paired them together as mates.And after the accident?

Do you?” I teased back“No. But given how handsome their Alpha and Beta are, they shouldn't be drooling over your impressive physique,” he replied “Well, well. I'm a new face, they must have been tired of eating the same dish over and over, you know,” And there she went ahead to laugh her heart out. “You sounded so cocky right now. Where is our Chris? What have you done to him?” I couldn't help but join in the fleet of laughter.“You sounded like there was an emergency,” I said as I roamed my gaze around the vicinity for anything or anyone suspicious and weird.“Ohhh that,” she rolled her eyes and I huffed.“Yeah… there was actually an emergency just before you came,” she sounded serious“Okay… what's that? What's the problem?” I became more serious and sensitive myself.An
