[HOLLY’s Point-of-View]I have been blinking my eyes fast for a hundred times since Alpha Evan left the room.I couldn’t move a muscle. My eyes were just fixed on the ceiling, my mind still on cloud nine as I reminisced all the amazing things that happened last night. It was all real. His kisses, his touch and…Curious, I pushed myself and sat on the bed. I pulled the blanket to the side and saw the red stain on the white bed sheet, proof that I had completely surrendered myself to Evander Edgerton—the young and multi-billionaire Alpha of the Blackwood Pack, the head of the alliance and a war hero.And I will become his Luna.Still feeling sore, I tried my hardest to climb down the bed and freshen myself in the shower. Walking was hard because of the searing between my legs and I wince in my every step until I finally reached the bathroom and soaked myself under the warm water. I sighed and let the water cascade down my naked body and felt it on my skin. My mind was still enveloped wi
[IRINA’s Point-of-View]I couldn’t find him.In his room? No.In his office? No.In the garden? NO! NO! NO!I was raging like an erupting volcano when I went to my car and started the engine. My lips pursed against my teeth. He was not answering my messages and my calls! He has been out since last night and I haven’t heard anything from him!“That g*ddamned j*rk!” I hissed between my teeth and drove downtown. Someone tipped me where he had been staying a lot since the Alpha of the Blackwood pack took away Holly. That woman! She’s the reason why Alec was behaving strangely these days! I didn’t know what she did to him! I didn’t know what she said to him to make him feel so miserable like this!My eyes were sharp and piercing as I maneuvered to the highway. It’s Holly’s fault! That b*tch did something to my fiance and she will pay for it once I see her face again!Everything changed after Holly was taken by the Alpha. I thought my life would become better now that she’s gone. But Dad ac
[HOLLy’s Point-of-View]I don’t believe him.Alec did everything to destroy my relationship with my family and whatever he said about Alpha Evan, I knew they were only lies just to confuse me and make me hate him.I threw the phone on the bed and never looked at it again.“Holly?” Alpha Aleksei was surprised when he saw me walking to the kitchen with his sister, Shei, “What are you doing? Are you feeling better already?”Shei smiled and squinted at her brother teasingly, “Well, it seems she’s feeling better now, brother. But I have to remind you she needs a healer.” Her eyes pointed at the bruises that were marked on my skin.I saw Alpha Evan’s eyes widen and his shoulders drooped. There was frustration on his face when he walked towards me to see the bruises clearly, “Holly, I’m so—”Shei put her hands up to her head like a surrender, “Okay, lovebirds. I have to go now so both of you have the privacy to talk. I can tell you have a lot to discuss today.” she winked at me and waved at
[EVANDER’s Point-of-View]I smiled. And for the first time even before I met Cindy, the first woman who broke my heart, there was hope in me that I could be a better man because of Holly. Her innocence, her kindness, and how she cares for the people around her were the most amazing things I ever saw in a girl, who grew up with a kind heart, despite the abuse she endured from her family.After I saw how she was treated in the Ambrose manor, that’s when I told myself I would take her away from those people. She would never be treated like a servant again. That I will protect her no matter what.“So everything didn’t happen according to plan?” There is a teasing grin on Kian’s face as he looks at me while his arms where folded on his chest, “This isn’t about revenge anymore, isn’t it, Alpha Evan?”I exhaled in exasperation and slumped on the couch, feeling tired and confused with my feelings. There were so many emotions I couldn’t recognize and I hadn’t felt before but after what happene
[HOLLY’s Point-of-View]Tears stained my face.I didn’t know where to go. All I knew was I had to get out of that place and away from Alpha Evan. Away from the people who wanted to hurt me.The sky was gray and it was about to rain. As soon as I reached the lobby, I made sure no one would recognize me after I pulled my hair into a bun and hid it under a cap. I was wearing shades as well and with a gray baggy jacket and loose jogging pants, no one would ever think I was the Alpha’s mate, even the receptionist and the lobby attendants didn’t stop to take a good look at my face.I knew Alpha Evan would notice that I was missing so I half walked, half ran towards the gate without looking back. I avoided the security and ensured no one would follow as I got out of the gates and walked to the highway without an idea of where to head next.I haven’t been in any place in the Blackwood territory and I couldn’t stay on the road because Alpha Evan’s men would definitely find me. So even though I
[HOLLY’s Point-of-View]I groaned.I smelled rusting metal and the fresh scent of the forest around me. I smelled wet concrete and heard the splattering of the rain on the musky earth.My eyelid flutter. Every inch of me was aching and when I moved, my ears were filled with the clanging noise of the chains I felt around my wounded wrists. The searing pain the metal was inflicting on me made my head panic. It was a silver chain! I had to remove it before the metal ate my flesh deep into my bones!I squinted and found myself in the middle of a vast, abandoned building. The walls were filthy and covered with moss. The roof has huge holes and the rainwater entered the building, creating puddles of mud around the area.My chest was heaving. I had to get rid of the silver chain as fast as I could but I was too weak to destroy it. The thing that they injected me stopped me from using my werewolf strength. I was slowly dying and I couldn’t do anything but scream.“HELP ME!” I screamed at the
[ALEC’s Point-of-View]Alpha Alec, someone urgently needs to talk to you,” Robert, my Beta, handed me the wireless telephone. I looked at his face stoically, annoyed and not wanting to answer anybody’s phone call. Not today when I was in my worst mood because of Irina’s outrageous behavior in the bar.“I don’t want to talk to anyone. And if it’s Irina, tell her I am out of town. Or out of the country. I don’t have any energy to deal with her right now.”“I’m afraid it isn’t Lady Irina, Alpha Alec. It’s Alpha Evander Edgerton of the Blackwood Pack waiting for you to answer it.”I froze. I never expected a call from a man who nearly destroyed everything I worked hard for after the crazy thing I did when I confessed all my feelings to Holly. I was in my weakest moment that day and all my plans were destroyed because of the Alpha of the Blackwood Pack.I never thought a she-wolf could be mated with someone just a few days after she survived rejection. I couldn’t understand why the Moon Go
[EVANDER’s Point-of-View]My hand trembled as I put the phone down on my desk.Kian’s face was etched with worry when he stared at me, “What did he say? Is Lady Holly back in Ivory pack?”“She’s not there,” I exhaled, fear crawling up my neck. So many bad scenarios played in my head but I shook them away. There was something wrong happening and I felt it. I felt she was in danger and needed to find her before it was too late.I stood from my table and Kian’s back straightened. He had already anticipated the orders I would give him, “Expand the search area! Send more patrol men all over the pack and alert all the ones who are guarding the border! Close the gates and don’t let anyone get in or out of the gates!”Kian bowed his head, “I’ll do everything I can to find Lady Holly,” he gave me a nod of reassurance and I nodded back at him, giving him my trust one hundred percent.I held the necklace I gave Holly on her last birthday. It was indeed from my mother who passed away a few years
