How did I never notice how shameless Sofia was? Had she done any other inappropriate things toward me, but I didn't realize it because I was too invested in caring about her? Was that why everyone thought I was in love with her and we had an affair?I wanted to push her as far away from me as possib
•• Charlotte’s POV •••I was shocked when I heard Hayden scolding Sofia instead of Olivia, and I wasn't the only one feeling that way.Livie was so shocked that her mouth hung open as she stared at Hayden, while Sofia...My lips curled into a smug and satisfied smile, looking at her wide eyes filled
“Why did you lie to me, Charlotte?” he asked with narrowed eyes.So you wouldn't bug me anymore, I answered in my mind.“To keep me away from you? To get rid of me? Is that why you lied, Charlotte?” His grip on my wrist tightened, which made me realize he was still grabbing me.“If you already knew

“Charlotte, you don't have to be so harsh with me. Even if we are not mates anymore, we can still be friends,” his tone was still gentle with a hint of helplessness, which kinda spook me. This Hayden was so different than his usual self.I used to want him to treat me this nicely, but it gave me goo
•• Charlotte’s POV •••I closed my eyes and took deep breaths to control myself from yelling at him.“Hayden, if you are concerned about the rogues or have any other pack’s issues you want to discuss, you should talk to my dad or Ethan.” I looked at him coldly.“Charlotte, you are now the Alpha of t
“I was scolding the bastard, not you.” Her face flushed from embarrassment.“Yeah, but when you told me not to meet him anymore, I felt like you were saying it was my fault for meeting him.” I grinned at her.She rolled her eyes and snorted. “Now that you mentioned it, it was partly your fault for a
•• Charlotte’s POV •••“Why the gloomy face?” Ethan asked as I reached the Moon Crest Pack after my shopping spree with Olivia.“Ethan...” I hesitated to tell him, but he was my brother. I always shared everything with him. “I... I met my second-chance mate.”He looked surprised hearing my words. “I

•• Rosa’s POV •••“Jax... What... What are you doing here?”He didn’t answer my question but began taking his clothes off while gazing at me with such a scorching gaze that it made me blush.When he was naked, he stepped in front of me and pulled away my hand and arm, pinning them above my head with
“You wanted to give me the stone? So there shouldn’t be any tests?” I asked her incredulously.She stayed silent, and I knew who the real culprit was.I stood up and glared at the only mischievous person in the room. “Dad!”“Rosa, my daughter, I wanted to show the Witch Queen of your power so far,”

•• Jaxon’s POV •••I drove a distance away from them, enough for them not to notice but close enough for me not to lose sight of them.It wasn’t a wonder Dagon hid the stone at his last hideout.Damn demon, I thought to myself.What a pussy for using such a trick to wipe out the whole world after hi
