Chapter 25Mira’s PovEverything appears so strange and funny to me; it was the least I would ever expect to happen, and the whole scene just seems so weird. I was left alone in the room, deliberating over things. "It was nothing but a set-up, Mira; you fell for it. Not everyone in the pack loves you; you just heard that from Eliana; it is a true fact," I said to myself in conviction while parading the place.Feeling tired and sad, my mind kept replaying the events of the day. I couldn't help but wonder why people would go to such lengths to deceive and manipulate others. It made me question the authenticity of every interaction I had ever had. The weight of these thoughts bore down heavily on me, making it difficult to see a way out of this web of deceit.As I sat there, thinking, a wave of realization washed over me. Perhaps this experience was meant to teach me a valuable lesson about trust and discernment. It's easy to be swayed by words and appearances, but true understanding com
Elianna's POVEach time I think about it, I clenched my fists tightly as anger coursed through my body. This wasn't what I expected, if I had known it was going to happen this way, I would have restructured before launching my plan. Face palming myself, I rested my back against the cold wall as I stared straight ahead as if there was something interesting there but instead, it was a hollow space with several doors lined up at both sides. Gripping my gown with both hands, I tried waddling away but my feet were too heavy and I couldn't move them. For the next few minutes, I remained where I was, allowing disappointment to wash through me. This was the least I had expected and I wish I could turn back the hand of the clock. “Dammit! How does she always get away with this?” I asked, biting my bottom lips. “It seems she always overhead my plan and acts before I could even move a limb.” I muttered, rolling my eyes to the back of my head. Shaking my head to the side, I dug my fingers i
Mira’s POVTwo weeks later…Light rays filtered into the room, causing me to squint. Covering my eyes with the back of my palm, I threw my leg off the bed and then groped my way into the bathroom to perform my morning routine. Several minutes later, I was back in the room and was standing behind my mirror as I did my hair. It was at this point that Elianna's image flashed before me and I let out a low sigh. This had been a routine for a while now and I must confess it was driving me insane. At first, I thought it was because I dwelled on the embarrassment and several other things she had caused me so I decided to let go of the grudges I had against her. After our last encounter, I haven't stepped out of my room for more than an hour each day. This I did because I didn't want to cross paths with her. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was always served in my room and I was going to maintain this routine until I was certain it was safe for me to step out once again. “Finally.” I sighed, p
Mira's POVShaking my head sideways, I bit my bottom lips as I stared at the path Eliana had taken. If told she was going to pull his trick, I wouldn't have believed it but she just did. Still amused with her little drama, I let out a soft chuckle before propping myself up on the bench. Leaning forward, I closed my eyes tightly, reminiscing the little conversation we had not too long ago. “She wants to be friends with me?” I asked with a little chuckle. I can't believe she went to the extent of painting the same brother she claims she adores black. “She must have told her brother I didn't love him too, just like she said he doesn't love me.” Rolling my eyes to the back of my head, I rested against the tree bark and with my hands across my chest I let out a scoff. “So funny.” After an hour, I returned to my room. This time around when I tried to read a book, I was able to concentrate and even when I decided to take a nap, it was easy for me. Later that evening, exactly six thirt
Alpha Roland’s PovI took out time to chill while seated in the courtroom. My courtesy groomed me a flashing smile alongside a pleasant aromatic scent going through my nostrils that came from the wine I took, while trying to keep calm. “My favorite,” I grinned as I opened a new bottle of wine to serve. The drink contained nerve calming ingredients which could easily be detected by its effect, I could feel them at every sip of wine I took. That was all I could do at the moment considering all that’s going on around.Although it was nerve calming, it wasn’t enough to clear the situation at hand. I had my instincts all along. My instincts gave me every bit of detail required which is enough to have my mind deliberate through them. I could feel there was something wrong all along which has made me restless. Being lost in thought became the new mode of my existence. I recorded the whole thing, predicting how it would have turned out if the maid never walked up to me to tell me about all
Alpha Roland's PovThe fume indicated that she had been poisoned orally, but how could this happen? She was okay a few minutes ago. I instructed my men to free her from the chains. Her heavy body fell to the ground with a loud thud! Blood flowed out of the orifices of her body. This was a clear sign of poisoning. Who was responsible for this? I had made her a promise to protect her family, she was about telling me everything. How then did the tables turn? “Fuck!” I gnashed my teeth in anger. A bitter feeling rushed through, as I swallowed my anger and kept silent for a while. My mind was disrupted with a lost of negative thought, I felt so useless in my own pack. This pause, was just for a moment, as I tried to keep calm.“Guards!” I called out to them, screaming at the top of my voice. The whole thing was becoming a foil, not as I expected. I could feel the hard squeeze of my heart, it seems I was letting my guard down. As soon as they arrived, they bowed their heads in fear. The a
Mira's PovI felt a wave of uneasiness as I thought about the conspiracy to take my life. The feeling of being in danger was persistent and deeply troubling. I could tell how much I have gone through the little time I stayed in the pack. What kept going was the thought of Roland. The idea of anything bad happening to our beautiful love fills me with terror. "Pull yourself together, Mira," I said, thinking about how much effort I had put into ensuring the safety of my new relationship with Roland. I couldn't have done it without understanding the value of our relationship, which is the most amazing I've ever had.Despite the uncertainties, there have been moments of joy and harmony between Roland and me. However, I couldn't help but wonder what would happen if things took a turn for the worse.Various thoughts entered my mind, but I refused to entertain them. Dwelling on them would only drive me nuts. Instead, I focused on the fast pace at which everything was progressing.The love,
Eliana's PovI expressed my frustration with a sense of anger, as everything around me seemed to be bothering me."Leave right away!" I exclaimed, knocking the cup of drink out of the maid's hand. No one dares to stay around me when I feel this frustrated. Moreover, I had no intention of having breakfast, as Mira constantly annoys me every time we cross paths."What are you still doing standing here?" I yelled. The maid had stepped back after clearing up the broken glass cup with great courage. I couldn't tell if she was a new employee or not. All of my maids know how I behave. No one dares to approach me when I am angry."Who does she think she is? Why did she break my rules?" I questioned angrily. My maids know everything that needs to be carried out. She isn't supposed to serve me at this time. I don't know if it was due to my angry state, but I become upset when things are not done as they should be."Take it easy on the maid. She is innocent. If you need to vent your frustration,
Chapter 62Mira still had the silver dagger in her hands, she looked at her sister's body still trying to comprehend what had just happened. She moved backwards, sighing in relief. Finally it was over, she had avenged the pain and betrayal.The door opened and Alpha Roland walked into the room. He was covered in blood. He looked around the room, he was dumbfounded by the state she was in. He made his way towards her. He could tell she was lost in thoughts, the stain of blood he saw on the floor accelerated his heart beat. He became scared, what could have happened? Tracing the flow of blood, he called out to her. “Mira,”Mira turned towards him, letting go of the silver dagger she was holding, it fell to the floor creating a loud noise, she shivered. Looking at him, tears streamed down her face, she had mixed feelings of Joy, victory and pain.Alpha Roland trailer the blood down from where it was coming from and saw the lifeless body that had been constantly stabbed. He understood he
Chapter 61Alpha Roland's PovAs memories of my promise to Mira flooded my mind, a knot of anxiety tightened in my chest at the sight of my guards faltering in the challenge. Determination surged through me, an unwavering resolve that whispered, "I will not lose this battle, no matter the cost."I had vowed to return to Mira alive, to uphold my commitments without wavering. The thought of losing her, of relinquishing my mate and my throne, was unbearable. It fueled my every move, driving me to fight with an unyielding spirit, even if it meant giving my last breath. These were the two pillars of my existence, the forces that propelled me forward."For Mira and the pack, I must prevail," I declared, my voice resolute, as a surge of urgency coursed through my veins. There was no longer anything that could hold me back. I poured every ounce of my being into the battle, determined to claim victory. In that moment, I felt the presence of the moon goddess, her divine intervention necessary t
Chapter 60Alpha Lucas PovI had the feeling that the war was certainly in favour of me. I was pleased by how of Roland's men were being killed by mine."Mira, I will have you all to myself" I said within, maintaining a war smile. I could tell from Roland's actions that he was willing to do everything in his power to keep mira. This is something I also want. This was something I never expected. I had the thought of Roland giving in and letting me have mira. It's just that he has chosen to risk the lives of others inorder to secure Mira to himself. The fight continued with so much brutality and hatred. It seemed my men were feeling my pain to have unleased so much anger on them. I chuckled and stated; "How unruly of you Roland, take a look around, what do you see? I am taking the league. Give up now. Lives of people being taken, Let me have Mira and I will end this fight here and now" I ordered"Dream on Lucas, dream on!"He paid no attention to me but fight harder. It's obvious tha
Eliana's PovI made the decision to leave because I couldn't stand being around Mira and the others in the pack anymore. I needed some time alone to think and come up with a plan that would work for me. The thought of facing loneliness scared me, and I realized I had never felt loved in the pack mansion.When I saw Mira's bitter reaction, I knew it wasn't safe for me to stay any longer. Roland no longer trusted me, and it seemed like Mira had learned to stand up for herself. I didn't feel safe being around her anymore.I had ventured into the forest and walked quite a distance, about a mile away from the pack. The sounds of wolves howling and screeching filled the air as darkness began to fall.I wasn't a fan of the dark, even though I enjoyed it when I was with the pack. I whispered to myself, "Oh moon goddess, protect us."I could sense the impending disaster that would befall the pack, and it worried me. I couldn't help but think about how much we had gone through without the moon
Chapter 58Eliana's PovNever before had I felt such overwhelming fear. It consumed me, overshadowing any previous anxieties I had experienced. Regret flooded my being, a feeling I had never encountered until now. As the war escalated, my heart ached for Roland, despite my confidence in his abilities. I couldn't help but feel remorse for my actions, as this outcome was not what I had envisioned. I blamed myself for conspiring and orchestrating the plans that led us here. If only I had known that Roland would choose war over surrendering Mira, I would have devised a different strategy.My heart weighed heavy, as if it were being pierced by countless spears. The pain was unbearable, and I found myself restless and unable to control my anguish. Fears consumed me as I pondered the possibility of something going wrong. What if Roland suffered instead of Mira? How could I ever forgive myself? Trembling, I contemplated the consequences of my actions, knowing that I could easily become ensnar
The Wolfshade PackAlpha Roland's PovDespite the calmness of the night, she seemed unable to sleep, her grip on my hand tight as she lay down. It was clear that her mind was still filled with worries."Don't worry, everything will be fine," I reassured her, running my fingers through her hair to provide some comfort.She let out a calm sigh, as if finding relief from her concerns. It was better for her to let go of her worries rather than hold onto them.Holding her in my arms, I tried to help her fall asleep by cuddling her. However, she kept tossing and turning, making it difficult for me to rest.I wished with all my heart that I could make everything better for her, ease her mind, and help her sleep without any worries."Mira," I called out.She seemed to be somewhat asleep, finding solace in my presence. It brought me great joy to know that she was finding some relief from her worries.I couldn't understand why, but I found myself putting in more effort to make her feel better.
The Night Bloom PackAlpha Luca's PovI stormed into the grand pack mansion, my screams and screeches echoing through the halls like a madman. My mind was spinning, unable to find a clear path forward. I had done everything in my power to persuade Mira to be my Luna, but she remained oblivious to my intentions. Regret gnawed at me for the mistakes I had made in the past. My insatiable desires had led me down a destructive path, and the anger within me was relentless.I couldn't blame Mira for the chaos that has consumed us now. I had put her through hell, and yet her love for me had been the purest and most deserving I had ever received. But I had foolishly taken it for granted, consumed by my own selfish desires. The rejection I felt from her had ignited a jealous fire within me, envying Roland for the attention he received. My visit to the Wolfshade Pack had taken an unexpected turn, straying far from my original plan. All I wanted was to bring Mira back with me."Fetch me some bot
Chapter 55Mira's POVI returned to my room, seeking solace and a quiet space to contemplate my plans for revenge. The whole situation had left me furious and unable to concentrate.I scoffed in amusement. The fact that Alpha Lucas was coming back for me was both surprising and amusing. It felt like a dream that, despite everything he had done, he still had the audacity to show up and claim any connection to me. Fate was certainly playing games with me.As usual, I tried to remain calm by watching the clouds, which had lost their brightness, indicating that it was getting dark. The night felt never-ending, as my worries prevented me from finding rest. Restlessly, I paced back and forth in my room."It seems like it was a bad idea all along," I muttered. The reason for being in my room felt unfulfilled. The sound of crickets outside only added to my irritation, so I quickly closed the doors and windows."Perfect!" I exclaimed with a smile. The environment became more comfortable, provi
Mira's PovA wave of despair crashed over me when I discovered that Lucas and Roland shared the same blood. The past replayed in my mind, tormenting me with the realization that my fate had betrayed me."Why did it have to be you two?" I whispered, my gaze fixed on Alpha Roland. The weight of my mistake settled heavily on my chest, drowning me in shame. I couldn't bear to face the Alpha, knowing I had become the object of a fierce rivalry between twins."Mira, you seem troubled. What's wrong?" Alpha Roland's concerned voice broke through my thoughts. He could sense the shift in my mood—the sudden change in the air. I felt burdened by the fact that he remained oblivious to the truth, despite my attempts to explain my past. I knew I had to reveal the real reason behind Lucas's unexpected return and claim against me.My heart raced, anticipating his response and fearing his reaction once he knew everything."Mira, you're lost in your thoughts again. Is everything alright? Why do you look
