-Dante-

I dragged her arms and pulled her close.

“What the hell are you talking about?” I asked fiercely.

“Let go of me Dante,” she said with a hard look on her face too. “I said let go, you would have to explain to anyone watching us right now, why you are holding me like this, and believe me I would not hesitate to say what I know.”

I let go of her, but not because of the threat. I would never allow a woman like her to think she could scare me with her threats.

“You do not know anything Jasmine,” I said. “So you had better get that off your little brain.”

“Oh really?” she replied sarcastically. “If you are so sure, why are you looking scared?”

I took a deep breath to steady myself.

“Listen,” I pointed a finger to her face. “It is bad already that you have decided to put everything we had together in the trash. I am trying to move on and live my life, I do not want you all over me.”

“Oh please,” she was not shaken. “Do not try to change the topic. I have always known you to have a d

She is quite dumb and so is he for not strangling her the moment he realized she knew something. She's too dumb to use stealth when spying and he's too dumb to eliminate easy threats. She went to a governing body with incomplete evidence and if he has any brain cells, he'd ruin her credibility

    -Aria-I glanced at Dante and saw that he was looking at me and I wanted to believe that I had mistaken the look on his face to be a grin filled with mockery.He shouldn’t be looking that way in this situation right? But there was something about his confidence that worried me. He had responded to the elders as if he did not have any idea what they were talking about and he had not done anything wrong.“I cannot believe this council had called me to query me about how I walked out of a building that belonged to me,” he shook his head. “Do you realize how ridiculous this sounds? You all are gathered here. You want to question me on why I had left the empire because someone said she saw me leave suspiciously. Shouldn’t you have asked the young lady further questions before calling for this meeting because I don’t want to believe this is all you are based on?”There was silence for a while and it seemed the elders were pondering on the point Dante just made. I did not want to think it, b

    -Aria-At that point, I knew had gotten myself into some serious mess but I was more worried and concerned about what Adonai would think of me now. The disappointment on his face was enough punishment to break me.“We all make mistakes and assumptions,” his first statement was surprisingly calm and I could I was not the only one it had taken aback. The entire room was looking in his direction with surprise. “And that is why we all must always be certain of whatever information we bring to the council.”He paused, and the silence was such that a pin could be heard if dropped. Maybe they heard my chest thumping because I could hear it playing loudly like a drum. Adonai adjusted on the chair and continued.“I would sadly agree that I was hasty with the decision of allowing her in the council which you all can testify that she did a great job before I had that consideration, but Jasmine,” he turned to address me and my heart stopped beating for a second or two. “I do not appreciate that y

    -Aria- I walked into my room and Prisca was there waiting for me. She could not follow me to the council meeting because she was a commoner. “What happened?” she asked with concern on her face. I walked to the bed and sat down heavily. “Why are you looking this way? What happened at the meeting?” I had not told her about my suspicions about Dante and that I was going to report him to the council. She knew that I had gone to the council, but did not know the reason why. Since I had been allowed to sit with them, she must have thought it was just a normal meeting. I looked at her face which was a mixture of worry and concern and wondered if I should tell her what had happened or not. I decided to tell her, there was no point keeping it from her anyway, rumors flew more than witches here and she would eventually find out and be mad at me for not telling her. So I narrated all that happened and by the time I was done there was a look of horror on her face which I was very sure wa

    -Crystal-I sneaked out of the palace when it was dark, covered my face with a black veil so I would not be noticed and walked to Derick’s house. He was up when I got there, I could tell because his house was still lightened and I could hear movements within the room.I knocked on the door quietly, looking around. He opened almost immediately as if he had been expecting me.“What are you doing here by this time of the night?” he asked with a grimace and I frowned at him.“Don’t ask me that as if you were not expecting me,” I scowled, pushing him out of the way. I walked into the room while he closed it and I took off the veil.“I do not expect you would come here by this time of the night,” he said and I rolled my eyes.“You expect that I come here in the day when everyone can see me and wonder what the Luna is doing at your house?”“Easy, you don’t have to be so impatient with me,” he shook his head at me.“Why are you acting so calm?” I looked at him and folded my hands across my ch

    -Dante-Now that Jasmine had done what she did, she had made me see reasons to get rid of her for good. She did not hesitate to report me to the council even when she was not certain of what she suspected me of and without any evidence. That fascinated me a lot and made me wonder why she desperately wanted to bring me down.It might be because of the way her relationship with Adonai was going. She must have thought she was better than everyone and wanted to please him more. It was true that he thought highly of her after she had exposed Asher.She did not know that she would have to pass my approval before Adonai had anything to do with her. When her mother had brought the proposal for the first time for Adonai to marry her, I had been the one who convinced him to go ahead with it.By that time, I was already engaged to Ariel and was secretly seeing Jasmine. I had all my plans drafted out and the next phase was getting her to marry him. It was easy for me to agree with the proposal. B

    -Adonai-I took a deep breath when Dante closed the door behind him and dropped the ink I was holding. This is the very reason why I do not want anyone coming in when I am trying to work because I would not concentrate anymore after they are done.Especially when the person speaks about something as sensitive as what Dante just spoke about. I could not believe I was having sleepless nights because of Jasmine. I would always go to bed thinking about her and when I am trying to work on something the thoughts of her never leave my head.And that was why I found it difficult to let her go through any punishment after what she had done at the council. Dante was here ranting about it and I wondered what he would have thought of me if he knew that I believed her when she had spoken about it the first time.It was something even I could not understand, how easily I had believed her. What was this girl doing to me? I think I have to take a break away from her. Maybe if I give some distance it

    -Lara-I knew it! I just knew it! I danced around in my room happily. I knew that one day, the pompous princess who thought herself better than anyone else would be put to shame sooner or later and she had not disappointed me.When a man has pride, or a woman in this case now, she would not be able to see beyond her nose and that is what just happened to Jasmine now. She was not able to see that there was no way she would get the alpha on her side if she spoke against his only brother. She should have known better than that but no, the pride would not let her see that.Not only had she told Adonai in the privacy of her room, but she had gone ahead to gather the esteemed council of elders because of how highly she thought of herself and disgraced her entire livelihood before them.I am sure her mother must be rolling on the ground with her hands on her head, after hearing the grave thing her daughter had done. The woman had tried everything she could so that the ungrateful girl would h

    -Ariel-I scoffed as I thought about the rumors that were flying in the palace, not rumors actually, they happened to be true. I confirmed it and now I wondered what Jasmine was trying to do and what she aimed to achieve by doing that.I had barely found an answer to that when the door opened and Mum walked in.“Hey mum,” I greeted with a bit of cheerfulness and she sighed deeply before she replied.“How are you doing?” she asked and I shrugged.“Do I have any choice than to be any better?”“I heard about what happened to your sister,” she said, and I almost rolled my eyes. I should have known she was not here to see me or check on me. Most of the time, she wanted to discuss Jasmine, and even if she did manage to try to find out how I was doing, it always ended up with talking about Jasmine.“Everyone knows and nothing’s happened to her, she did what she did to herself,” I replied with a tired look.“Come on Ariel, this is your sister we are talking about here,” Mum said in her usual

    - Prisca-"You...you followed me?" I stuttered. He stood up from the bed and walked towards me slowly. I moved back instinctively."Yes I did," he said casually. "I came to your house, but you were nowhere to be found, so I sat and waited for you. Where have you been?"For a brief moment, life left my body. I thought he followed me to the hideout and knew everything.Oh shit...I let out a deep breath of relief. Thank goodness."Uh...uhm," I swallowed hard. "I was just around, you know. The pack. I needed some fresh air so I went for a stroll.""So why didn't you return to the palace?" He asked further and I quickly thought of what I could say."Well," I chuckled nervously. "Just trying to escape from the tension in the palace. I mean, so much has happened in just one day so..."Adonai grunted and his eyes scrutinised me, perhaps trying to see if he could believe me or not."I had to come here because we needed to talk," he finally said. "About what's happened earlier. We are married b

    -Prisca- "Who are they?" I asked them, trying hard to keep calm."We don't know Prisca," one shrugged. "But they did not look anything like us. They looked different. Maybe werewolves from another pack."What business does Aria have with other werewolves that they came for her? Or has she been having contact outside our pack all this while? That bitch, I cursed under my breath. She always manages to escape my hands.Gosh, I hit my fist against my palm. And I was this close to getting rid of her this time. I hissed and made for the door when the men called my attention."What do we do now?" They asked and I scowled at them."Get your failure asses back home. What else is left to be done when you have lost her?""Then what about our payment?"I turned round in disbelief to face them. Had they the nerve to ask me that?"What payment?" I scoffed."For the work we did for you. You haven't paid us.""You bunch of losers are expecting payment?" I asked."We had a deal. You cannot just send

    -Prisca- Yes! My plan has finally worked. I am going to exchange marital vows with Adonai and legally be his wife.It does not count that I am impersonating Aria. He is not going to be tied to Aria in reality but to me.I sat beside him, before the crowd with my face veiled and a sly smile across my face which no one could see.A few people had suggested I take off the veil so they could behold my face but Adonai politely declined. No one pushed it, and I successfully got tied to Adonai.I had feared that Dante would have wanted to expose me because he didn't seem pleased with the plan, but he didn't.I was led to Adonai's room while the party continued in the hall. There I took off my veil and sat comfortably on his bed.He was not here yet, for he was still having some drinks with his visitors. I chuckled happily. Alas, my dream has come to pass.The door opened and I quickly adjusted. I hissed when I saw it was Ariel."What are you doing here?" I asked sharply. She did not reply b

    -Adonai-It took a while before what she said registered in my head."Are you insane?" I retorted, placing a finger on the side of my head."No, I am not," she responded confidently."How then can you say such a thing?""I am only trying to help you, alpha," she said. "Think of what the people at the table will say when you return there without a bride.""And have you thought about what it would be when they also realize that you are not Aria?""They wouldn't have to know. A bride can be veiled. You are not under any law to reveal your face to anyone. I believe that they might think that is what you want and they will respect it."I hesitated, trying hard to think about what Prisca had said. She was right. I would be seen as a fool if I returned to the people with the news of Aria eloping with another man and there would be no wedding.It would be the second time I gathered people and something ruined the ceremony."You know what, you are right. But this is just for the ceremony. You

    -Adonai- I took in a deep breath to steady myself when Maria approached me, her face strained with worry and told me Aria was nowhere to be found.I had asked her to go get her since the ceremony was about to start."What do you mean by she is nowhere to be found," I asked, my voice in a low whisper so the people at my table would not hear."Even I don't understand myself," Maria said. "But she is not in her room and no one seems to have seen her."No, this cannot be happening now. I braced myself and tried to remain calm."Uhm, gentlemen, I will be right back," I addressed the men at my table."Is everything fine?" Dominick asked as I excused myself and I told him all was well. All was not well at all. A few minutes to the start of my wedding the bride is nowhere to be found.I walked with long strides towards Aria's room with Maria following steadily behind me."I was wondering if she had to quickly do something outside the palace because it doesn't seem like she..." Maria trailed

    -Aria- I groaned in pain as I opened my eyes. I tried to move but discovered I couldn't, I was tied firmly to something I could not see, a pole or something.What's going on? I tried to think. The last thing I remembered was being prepared for my wedding and then strange faces appeared in my room.I looked up sharply when I realised what had happened. I was in an empty room that was void of anything normal in a location I could not fathom.I recognised the faces in the room as the ones who had walked in on me."Who are you and why did you kidnap me?" My throat was dry, as well as my voice. None of them bothered to give me an answer."Hey, say something. Who sent you?" I pushed."Keep it down Aria," a very familiar voice said. "This is not the palace where you speak anyhow you like and everyone is answerable to you.""Prisca?" I muttered under my breath but she heard."Tis me, yes," she stretched her hands out in a show of dignity. "Flesh and blood."I looked on in shock. Is this a dr

    -Aria- I was being dressed by the maids for the wedding when Adonai walked in, and they all trooped out to give us a moment."Is anything the matter?" I asked, searching his face."Not really," he replied with a small smile on his face. "I just wanted to see you."I rolled my eyes at him."You see me every day," I pointed out."Yeah," he replied with a sigh as he walked to a stool and sat in front of me, his eyes watched me tenderly."What?" I shook my head with a chuckle."You know, there is this old story we heard while growing up," he said."Okay?""That you become too excited and overwhelmed about someone or something because you are about to lose it.""Hmm." I breathed out. "Never heard about that before. But why are you talking about that? Are you thinking I might leave you?""No. I am relating it to how excited I am about getting married to you," he said and took my hand in his. "Are you ready to become Mrs. Adonai and Luna of this pack?""You think I am ready?" I threw back a

    -Adonai- Today is the day I officially get married to Aria. I was sure my face radiated the joy I felt within. I could not hide it.I walked around the building, watching as the maids and guards ran around to put things in order. It is going to be a very big ceremony. Invites have been sent far and near, and all the provinces and clans, big and small packs, would be gathered for the wedding.Werewolves coming from far distances had arrived the night before. Dante approached me with a grimace on his face."So you are finally getting married to Aria," he commented."So am I," I said with the same energy."Well, how does that make you feel?" He wanted to know and I narrowed my eyes at him, trying to discern his reason for asking."Complete, I guess. A man with a family.""Mmm," Dante hummed and nodded. "True.""And after this, you also have to settle down as well. You have a fiancé already, so that wouldn't be hard, I guess?"He chuckled."Well then, after you."While we spoke, alpha Do

    -Aria- My heart skipped a beat when I lifted my eyes to the door and saw Adonai. He walked in with a blank expression on his face, approaching us slowly."Adonai, Zafa here was just telling me that he was leaving the pack. It was what we were discussing before you walked in," I jumped in to explain hurriedly when he had not asked me anything.Adonai did not respond. I tried to read his expression, but he hid it well. He stood beside me and faced Zafa, who looked back boldly as if Adonai had not walked in on us almost about to kiss."Is that so?" Adonai finally spoke, addressing Zafa."It is indeed so," Zafa confirmed, unshaken."But you did not tell me," Adonai said dryly. "You came to my wife to tell her but I am not aware of what is going on.""She was the one that sent for me first," Zafa replied. "And I did plan to tell you, though, she is the reason why I came to this pack. Either way, you would have known anyway."I was worried about the way the two were going. I wouldn't want
