I expected him to pull away after a few seconds, probably with fear that I might kill him, but it never happened. Instead, Wesley placed his other palm on my neck, rubbing it softly and he whispered words I guessed were supposed to be soothing, but I heard none as they were all carried away by the wind.

I didn't care yet. All I wanted right was to satisfy my thirst, so I drank greedily, moaning as his intoxicating scent filled my nostrils. A few seconds later I pulled away, deciding that was enough and if I had gone any longer, I might've killed him.

"You okay?" Wesley asked with a smile as I licked off the rest of the blood from my lips.

I nodded, moving closer to wrap my arms around his neck, resting my head against his chest. "I got good news for you, though." I said, looking up at him with a smile.

"What is it?"

"Your father finally agreed to let you be involved in the pack businesses. I think he has already considered you to take over the alpha's position after him." I expected

    Valerie's POVWe left the crime scene about thirty minutes later and headed back to the packhouse. The BlackMoon Alpha, Ace managed to regain his composure and took the body back to his pack, after promising to help in whatever way he can to catch the killer.Alpha Enzo also made sure to tighten securities in all areas of the pack, especially deserted areas. Once back at the packhouse, Wesley and I headed straight to the kitchen, where I planned we could take coffee and think of what we could do to prevent another murder. Wesley grabbed a wine from the top drawer with two cups, placing them on the table at the center of the kitchen. "Not coffee now. This would do." He raised the bottle up to my face and expertly uncorked it, the rich crimson liquid filling both cups immediately.Wesley dropped one cup before me and I took a sip of the wine, savoring its rich flavor, before setting the cup down and looking intently at him. "I feel like we're missing something. How does he manage to g

    Valerie's POV"Are there any packs with harboring grudges against us?" I asked, pacing around as I searched through my thoughts for any possible culprit."No one. The only enemy we had was wiped out over 3 years ago. The Night Exiles." Tyler responded and clenched my fists tight, trying to suppress the surge of emotions rising in me as he spoke with confidence. "Then the mastermind behind this could be someone from our pack, a traitor or a psychopath who derives pleasure from killing people. Cause what the heck with the eyeballs all the time?" I pointed out, feeling a mix of anger and frustration coursing through my veins."Besides, how else could he get the contacts of his victim to be able to lure them to meet him?" Wesley added."We need to question the girl?? She can tell us something, whatever it is." I hurried out of the woods, heading to the wooden house where I was sure the guards were keeping the girl. Tyler and Wesley followed closely behind, and before long, we arrived at

    Wesley's POVWe walked deeper into the woods, the rustling of twigs beneath our feet accompanying each step, as we headed towards the scene where the rogue had killed himself.Arriving at the scene, I watched the guards move around, cleaning every evidence of the scene. Since it was close to the park, it was best not to leave any trace of it, to prevent the pack members from seeing it and begin living in fear.I sat on a weathered log, trying to shift all my focus on the scene and ignore every nagging thoughts swirling in my mind. I wanted to believe so hard that Tyler was genuinely changed and ready to behave like he should've normally been, not directing unprovoked hate towards me, but with the situation on ground and that we couldn't trust anyone yet, I just had to let go of that thought. Mostly because Eve was my prime suspect and no matter what she does, I was pretty sure Tyler wouldn't go as far as exposing her. He would rather hate me, than expose her, so it seemed our relation

    Valerie's POVThe next morning, we made our way back to the packhouse , giving full reports of yesterday's incidents to Alpha Enzo. Tabitha was not forgotten as well, Enzo had ordered an arrest of her father and their case would be handled by the Pack's authorities from now on—even starting from today. We had breakfast and due to how famished we were, we were done in no time. And I offered to do the dishes in the kitchen. As I stood by the sink, washing the dishes I felt a presence enter the kitchen standing by the door.Glancing briefly, I could say I was a little surprised to see Eve by the door, staring at me with an unexplainable gaze—something like another plan of hers failed and no one seemed to be on her side."You know, staring at people that way, seems really creepy." I turned off the faucet, wiping my hands on a kitchen towel before turning to face her. Meeting her fiery gaze head-on, I couldn't help but smirk. "What's your problem?""What have you been doing with Tyler?" S

    Valerie's POV"Hi." She smiled timidly, glancing at the little girl before introducing. "She's Tara, my little sister." In response, the little girl with captivating blue eyes glanced at me before shyly looking down at her feet."Oh Hi, Tara!" I crouched down before her, smiling sweetly while tucking some strands of her blonde hair behind her ear. "You have the prettiest eyes I have ever seen." I mused, causing her cheeks to turn a shade of pink. "You wanna join me to make some pancakes?" She nodded eagerly, and I held her hand, leading her to the kitchen.A few minutes later, both girls sat at the kitchen counter eating the pancakes and scrambled eggs we had prepared together. My attention shifted to the door when I heard someone call my name. Seeing Tyler, I excused myself from the girls and went to meet him by the door. "The council has concluded on their case." He began in a hushed tone, briefly glancing at the girls. "The father has temporarily lost custody of them. The authorit

    Valerie's POVThe car came to a halt in front of the tall building and we stepped out, heading towards the entrance. As soon as we were inside the building, walking into the reception area, a woman dressed in formal wear approached us with a smile. "Hi, I'm Miss Jessica, Alpha Enzo has been expecting you." She bowed in courtesy, before leading us to the company's garage.Alpha Enzo stood in the garage with two men, dressed in black suits behind him. There were rows of expensive-looking cars on each side, obviously belonging to workers here."Valerie." I smiled when he called in acknowledgement, stretching out his hand for a formal handshake which I accepted.He glanced at Wesley, giving him a quick nod before speaking. "As to why I called you here. Well, you've been very helpful to the pack for over six months now and your good work has greatly contributed to the daily increased sales of our companies. So. I'd like to present this to you as compensation." I could only stare in confusi

I could hear the sounds of Valerie's cries from her room, causing a knot to form in my stomach, twisting with exasperation. I loved Valerie, and she had always seemed to make the right choices until she decided to associate friendly with the alpha family. How could she forget the nightmares, the tears, and the anguish that haunted us both? At first, I thought she was only being nice to Wesley since he wasn't in support of what they had done to us, but then Tyler? Why was she even pleased that he changed his attitude towards her? I pressed my palm against my ears, trying to block out her cries. My gaze shifted to the pink diary sticking out of my bag—the diary that made me realize Valerie had given up on finding justice for our parents. Did she even realize how all of this changed me? I wouldn't be surprised if she never knew, since she has chosen to direct h

"Where's your father?"Renée's eyes clouded with a mix of worry and sadness before she blinked off quickly, replacing it with a stoic expression. "My father was injured during the attack and he doesn't seem to be recovering yet, even though he was just shot with an arrow.""Can we see him?" I asked, feeling a sense of empathy wash over me.She seemed to be contemplating for a moment before she nodded. "Of course, come with me." We followed her into the packhouse which was quite crowded, filled with women and children around all corners. Some of them, moving around while trying to clean and put the packhous

    Valerie's POVIt's been over a week since I last saw Wesley, which was at Violet's house on the day she died. I tried to reach him severally, through phone calls which he ignored and our mind-link which he had completely blocked me out from. Did he regret mating me?Or had been foolish from the very beginning to think I could find my place in this pack. I don't even want to think anymore cause I've tried so hard to make sense of the situation but nothing is working yet. Sometimes I think maybe I've been doing it wrong all along and what the goddess actually meant by making things right is revealing to them who I am so they can kill and completely wipe out our entire clan. But I'd that was it, there was no purpose of sending me back just to die again. These past weeks had been lonely and very frustrating, due to Wesley's betrayal if that's the right way to call it and April not even giving me a hard time. She told me to my face that I had been the one foolishly trusting them because I

    The room is totally messed up, the entire furniture is broken and scattered around the room. There were broken glasses on the floor, and as I walked further into the room, I tried to think of what could've possibly happened here.However, I gasped when my eyes landed on a figure lying motionless on the ground. "Violet!" I screamed, hastily dropping to the floor beside her and shaking her shoulders, but she didn't respond and my heart raced even faster when I saw the blood trickling from her nose and mouth. Paramedics swiftly arrived, but instead of rushing to the hospital just like I expected, they walked out of the house with her on a stretcher and a white shroud around her."What the hell are you doing?" I asked, trying to remain in denial that it wasn't what I was thinking. "I'm sorry, Miss. But she's dead." The world around me stopped immediately, and I dropped to the ground, placing my trembling hands on my chest as my breaths came out in shaky pants, tears stinging the back of

    Valerie's POVIt's been a few hours into the party, yet Violet still didn't show up or replied to any of my messages. I told Wesley about it and he assured me not to worry about her since it was quite common for her to do something like this, perhaps she might have never fully agreed to come to the party.Considering her disinterest for the family, it was possible she might have changed her mind at the last second. I tried to push my worries aside, joining them in the celebration. Minutes later, Wesley suggested we go to his room since it was evident that none of us were enjoying the party or were used to things like this. Standing by the window in his room, we gazed at the stars and moon adorning the night sky. "You think this is over now?" I asked, not staring at him but keeping my gaze fixated on the sky. "Well, I can say we have over ninety percent of our problems solved. We're a bit free now, no more bad guys. Everything will get back to normal in a short while. “Wesley replies,

    Valerie's POVThe next morning I woke up to the good news that Renée arrived at the pack early, bringing Kyle along to face the authorities since he was from our pack.I dropped April off at school, telling her to be careful before rushing off to the packhouse. I heard Kyle had been locked in the cells in the basement of the house, so I hurried there, seeing Renée leaving on the way. After exchanging pleasantries, I walked into the basement to see Wesley standing before the cell. Kyle's gaze shifted towards me, and a smug smile appeared on his face. "Hey there, traitor." He said, and I tucked my hands into my pockets, not saying a word to him."It's good to see you behind bars," I said, smiling."I bet your mate here doesn't really know who you are and what you're capable of.""Why did you do it?" Wesley asked with a demeaning gaze fixated on him."I wanted power, Wesley. In fact, I was greedy for it and the rest of y'all seemed to settle for less. Accepting the losers you all are, ev

    Valerie's POVThe rhythmical beeping of a machine filled my ears even before my eyes fluttered open. The dim light of the white room washed over me—the antiseptic scent hitting my nose, giving me a hint of where I was. Maybe a hospital.I shifted my gaze to the side and found Wesley by the bedside, his eyes immediately glinting as soon as he noticed my movements. "Hey," he whispered, his voice a gentle caress. "You're awake." His eyes were filled with a mixture of relief and worry. "Where am I?" It was difficult to speak, as my throat felt dry and scratchy. "We're back at the packhouse. You're safe now." He took my palm into his, giving it a soft squeeze—his touch warm and reassuring.Confusion washed over me for a moment before my memory started to piece together the fragments. Then I remembered my encounter with Kyle and trying to escape him and his men."Where's April?!" That was the next question I asked, sitting up with a speed that had Wesley staring at me in surprise and confu

    Wesley's POVAs soon as I heard gunshots reverberate through the air, I dashed through the forest, not needing to think twice to know that it was Valerie. It has been over four hours we've been searching for her since she mysteriously disappeared. We searched the entire pack and yet there was no trace of her. My wolf was paranoid, demanding we find our mate. And when we saw traces of blood in the back of the house that I was sure belonged to her, we knew something had gone wrong. It was quite difficult trying to put Wade under control, but I gave that up as soon as we heard distant gunshots, letting him shift into his full form completely, without waiting for the warriors or any of the other search party members.I could feel her fear, almost tasting it. She must've been trying to escape from whoever captured her, and if by chance, it was the rogues, today would be the last day they would use their fucking lungs to breathe.I spotted them through the bushes, firing in a particular di

I groaned in pain, noticing my vision was blocked with dark clothing wrapped around my eyes. I tried to move, feeling my muscles numb, but instead, I felt my skin scrape against a rough surface. If I could guess right, my hands were tied to a tree while I sat on the ground with both legs tied together.I heard the loud chattering of male voices around me and footsteps moving all about. Trying hard not to panic, I struggled against the restraints, which was just a wasted effort.A rustling sound caught my attention and through the black fabric around my eyes, I could make out a shadow looming above me. The blindfold is swiftly removed from my face, and I move my gaze around slowly, sighting some men gathering around a fire with drinks in their hands, laughing loudly at their own jokes. There were several young men moving around, none of them even sparing me a glance.
