“Melo, is it necessary to go to Priscilla again?” No one addresses her as Sirena here and she gets used to the name Melody.“Yes, she asked me to come because this tie expires in two days,” Sirena replied.“Does this even have an expiry date? I don’t think she’s trustable,” Xander protested.When she tells him that she heard about her father, he starts to panic. The truth won’t drive her off but it will make their relationship uncomfortable. He’d worked a lot for this relationship and he doesn’t want to see this fall apart before his eyes.“Yes, I promise I won’t go after this,” she said.“Melo, you don’t have to promise me, you can do anything you want, but I’m worried that you shouldn’t lose your peace of mind over this,” he said.“I’ll keep that in mind,” she smiled.“Lenin will accompany you,” he said.Sirena nodded and came out of the house. Perhaps this is the first time she’s leaving Xander behind. She can understand how panicked he is as she keeps pursuing in this way that eve
“You must be still in love with him, don’t you?”Sirena looked at her in surprise and she couldn’t deny that entirely.“I don’t know,” Sirena said, “Now, I’m married to Xander, I don’t even remember the love I had for him but I guess I must’ve loved him more than I loved Alder,”“You have,” Priscilla agreed.“My destiny is cruel to me by bringing two men into my life. If my destiny is Xander then why I had to meet Alder? This is complete nonsense,” she said.“Maybe it’s trying to teach you something,”“Teach me what? That I can never be happy with the man I love,”“That’s not true. You’re happy right now,”“No, I’m not sure how long this is going to last. This ghost is asking me to leave and I’m here for your help,”“It’s a good thing that you have a little bit of bad in this life. You know too much goodness is bogus, it’s driving you to your destruction it means,”“You have an explanation for everything but right now I want peace. I want n escape from all this and I want to know when
Alder’s POV“Today, I want to know what you’ve decided,” my mother asked me once and for all.“I told you already. I don’t want to get married again,” I said, completely losing his patience.“Why? Are you still in love with Sirena?”“Mother,” I frowned as I felt she was intruding in my life, especially his love life.“Can’t you leave me alone? Talking to you makes my blood boil,” she sighed.“Getting angry at me isn’t going to help you in any way,” I said.“She had moved on. It’s only you, thinking about her and wasting your wonderful life,” my mother said what she feels.Maybe she’s right but I don’t have any desire to move on. I never thought that I had this much love for Sirena. It never occurred to me that I’m going to miss her terribly after the divorce and I’ll start to fall for her again. Is this even possible? Why I didn’t do this shit when I was with her?Why did I let her go? I should’ve fought the hell and back if I’d known that I love her more than anything else. Why did i
“Did you hear what he just said? I think he’s going to stay like this and he thinks that I ruined his relationship with Sirena.“Isn’t that true?” his mother asks. Grace stared at her for a moment.“You have done everything in your power to ruin his relationship. I can’t entirely blame you and I helped you as well,” she said, “We did it for his sake,”“But now I feel like it back fired upon us. Grace is living a happy life, it’s only Xander and I are suffering,” Grace lamented.“Everything will be alright soon. Don’t worry about it. He will come back to you way soon,”“How are you saying that? I’ve lost hope. My father asked me when I’ll marry him. He’s so pissed off at me that I’m not obeying his rules. You know the red moon pack has become massive. Their wealth increased a lot after Xander took over all the business and their daughters got married. My father feels inferior about everything,” she said.“What can we do in this man-dominant society? I’ll talk to your father about this,
Xander comes in when she is in her thoughts.“Hey, have you finished?”“Yes, it’s over,” she said and looked at him with a smile on her face.“Good, let’s go and get a cup of coffee,” he said and reached out his hand.She went to grab it with great enthusiasm.“Are you alright?” he asks.“Yes, I am,” she showed him her big smile to convince him. They went to the cafeteria. Not crowded and a few people greeted Xander.They settled down after ordering a cappuccino.“Hey, what’s going on?”“What?” she shrugged as if she had no clue.“I can feel that you’re confused and sad inside. Remember that you’re my mate now,” he reminded her, “I can sense everything that you’re going through,”He held her hand as a moral support and she almost fell for it.She smiled.“Don’t you dare tell him the truth,” Lulu warned her.“It’s just… you know the things that’s happening lately worry me a little. But I’m fine,” she reassured him.“Okay. I’m thinking we must go on a trip next week. Your father will be
“Stop kissing me or else I can’t leave you,” Xander complained, sweetly.“Don’t leave me then,”“Are you serious?”“Yes, I’m damn serious,” he smiled and pulls her closer and they fell on the bed. He started to kiss all over her face and she giggled to feel the itch of his mustache and beard.He pauses only when she stops him. She looked into his eyes and she admired him at that moment.“I love you, Xander,”Those words came from the depths of her heart. It’s the only thing on her mind.“I love you more,” he said. She didn’t tell him anything else. She wants this moment to last forever because she doesn’t know whether she’ll feel this way again, and this is more special to her.“Wish I had never met Alder and wasted my time. You should’ve come to me earlier,” he smiles.“You wouldn’t have taken my hand and wouldn’t have agreed to take my hand if all those things didn’t happen. You married me because you had no choice,” he said.Sirena thought for a moment, what he said was the truth.
After Xander left for the night watch, Sirena got ready to leave, she didn’t tell anything to Xander as she promised him that she wouldn’t do anything to find out about the past. If she told his about this, he would’ve stopped her by his sweet talk. It’s better if she keeps things away from Xander like Lulu said.Surprisingly Lulu asked her to go and meet Killian. Her approval has made Sirena feel less guilty about this.When situations lead to one straight way, then there’s nothing wrong with going on it. She looked around the house, making sure that no one is watching her. There’s this feeling that she’s going to get caught. When she does something with extra caution, it always ends as a blunder. For her safety, she tucked a knife in her sleeves.After meeting Priscilla, she didn’t feel any ghost presence beside her. The house is so silent that she feels like it could almost engulf her.She locked the door behind her and walked towards the southern borders. She took Xander’s shawl f
Sirena took a step back and she started to get that anxiety again. The sudden doubt had created a havoc in her feelings.“You’re confusing me and this is hard to believe,” she said.“I’m not. I’m putting some sense in you,”“Okay, what else? Are you saying that he tried to kill me?”“Maybe, I don’t know what happened between you and him on the day you vanished?”“Xander wasn’t in the pack when I ran away,”“No, he was here and he knows what happened to you,” he said and Sirena didn’t know what to say. The way it feels unacceptable made her realize how much she trusted Xander.She can’t even think about it that he could’ve lied to her. Maybe that’s why he was so upset when she tried to know the truth. He’s so afraid that I will find out everything.Lulu didn’t ask her to stop nor told her that this all could be a lie. They weren't speculation, they felt like the truth.Understanding that she’s breaking, Killian added more details to his claim.“He married you, clearly with the intentio
“Do you know who’s the reason I’m here?” she asks Alder.“My father,” she said when he took a moment to answer her.“I thought it was Xander,” he said.“Yes, he’s the second on the list, but my father caused all the mishaps in my life,” she said.“In that, he’s advising me to be calm. Just for the sake of living in his pack, I have to endure all the cruelty that is inflicted on me. Do you know what’s even more cruel, I shouldn’t even question why they were doing this?”“What more can you expect from a father who’s ready to sacrifice you for his safety,”“He’s not my father, I’ve come to that decision,”“That’s understandable,” agreed.“Where I’m on that list? The list of people who ruined your life,” he questions.“You’re in the fifth place,”“Oh, I thought I would be the third,” he said.“No, you’re not. Grace takes third place, and your mother is next,” she said.“Is the fifth place forgivable?”“I don’t know,” she shrugged. Alder smiles, he feels like there’s a possibility.“It’s w
As Alder cooks dinner, Sirena stares outside, she never thought she would be in this situation. Life throws surprises at her constantly. She got ready to have dinner with him on the table. They haven’t come up with a proper plan yet.They had dinner silently and Sirena felt something in the pit of her stomach to see him next to her.“How is it?”“Good,” she smiled.“Really, I’m not a great cook,”“That I can taste but it’s not too bad,” she said.He watched her sympathetically and there was love in him. He wishes he could marry her again and be with her all his life but it won’t happen unless she trusts him again. Maybe there’s a chance and he’s not the one who could control that. It’s entirely in her hands. Only if her mind changes, she will think about being with them. No matter what he does, it’s all in her heart.With a heavy heart, he puts a smile on his face.“I’ll clean the dishes,” Sirena said.She now feels like they were a couple. He stood beside her without leaving her alon
The day passed, and Sirena was cleaning and dusting the house. She realized that going back to the pack was a stupid idea. She shouldn’t go back; it would jeopardize all her plans, and take away her peace, or even her life. So, there’s no other choice but to stay in this place for some months. Alder said he’ll leave in one or two days because he doesn’t want to fall under any suspicion. She had to stay here alone.That’s great because she can be free and she can do anything.“What do you want to eat for dinner?”“Anything, I’m exhausted,” she said.“Okay, I’ll cook,”“You’ve all the supplies in the fridge and freezer. If you want anything you can call me, there’s a phone,” he pointed to the shelf.“Sure,” she nodded and lay on the couch.Alder prepared a steak and some veggies. She watched him with a tint of surprise in her eyes. He’d never cooked or acted this nice to her when she was with him. This is really surprising that Alder has a side like this.He’s so considerate. How can a
Xander lost his mind when he got to know that Sirena was missing. He thought she just went to see Priscilla or just roaming around the pack. But when he tried to contact her and she was unreachable, he panicked. He went to Priscilla’s place, broke into the house, and saw no sign of them. He understood that they both were gone.He alerted his pack and they searched for her everywhere. He called Grace, and asked if Alder is in the pack. She told him that he’d left for a business trip, two days earlier.He couldn’t trust that so he asked Grace to check into it. Either she escaped with Priscilla, or ran away alone or Alder must’ve taken her. He doesn’t know what to do. He didn’t let her father know about this but the next day he couldn’t hide it anymore, informed her father that she’d left the pack.He was pissed off, at least in front of him. He asked Xander to leave her alone if he couldn’t find her reasoning that she didn’t deserve a life like this.Xander can’t do that, that would be
That night, she slept on the couch after eating what Alder cooked. It filled her hunger, he’s a great cook. She doesn’t have a deep sleep at all. She thought about so many things staring at the ceiling.Sirena is mentally preparing for the moment when she meets Xander. She has to lash out or else act as all good with a knife behind and just cut his throat when he starts talking lies again. With all these negative feelings, she took off her meaningless wedding ring and stuffed it inside her pocket.She’s not going to forgive him at all. She can even forgive Alder but not Xander. Last night, Alder insisted that their mate bond was cursed and that's the reason he treated them in that way. Maybe that’s true but she couldn’t accept him. The anger in her wants him to be gone and she doesn’t know what she will do if he’s gone.In her life, the men who come into her life always make her uncomfortable and confused. Either they were too sweet for her taste or too unattainable. It doesn’t feel p
Alder sat next to her after putting the things in place.“I want to go back to my pack,” she said.“You can’t,”“It’s not something that you have to decide. I want to go,”“No, that’s too dangerous,”“I don’t understand, why are you so worried? This is my problem and I know what happened. I’ll take care of it,” she said.“How can you take care of it alone? You’re being ridiculous. Xander is way ahead of us and you don’t know what he will do,”Sirena looked at him squinting her eyes. “Why did you bring me here? Who gave you that permission?”“What’s wrong with this?”“You should’ve asked me,”“You wouldn’t have agreed to come with me,”“That’s right. If only you’d asked me in a good way. I would’ve agreed. But you will never do it because you don’t respect me as a wolf. When I was with you, you treated me like your slave just like what you’re doing now,” she said.“So, what? We both have the same intention,” he replied.She stared at him, he’s not understanding the problem. He’s never
Sirena woke up when she felt like she was being shaken and moving. She opened her eyes and saw she was in the car’s back seat. She couldn’t move her limbs for a moment and felt like this was a dream. The last thing she remembers is being in Priscilla’s house. Now she’s here in this car.Gritting her teeth, she got up from the seat and looked at the driver. To her surprise, it was Alder. Priscilla is on Alder’s side, and she helps him abduct her. Sirena gritted because she thought Priscilla was genuine and, on her side, but all this time, she’d worked for Alder. This is too much. How can she do this to me? She questions with anger and resentment.She stared at Alder. He looked excited and happy. Even though they had broken their mate’s bond, she could feel his emotions. She’d admired him a lot in the past, so it’s easy to study his face.“You woke up,” he said sensing her breath closer to him.“What the hell are you doing?” she questions in her hoarse voice.“Can’t you see, I'm taking
After shifting, Lulu made her way to Priscilla's house, and it was the only way Sirena was going to feel alright. The place is quiet as usual. To her surprise, Priscilla wasn’t there at home. She didn’t answer the door. It’s empty. Her garden is untouched and the herbs weren’t watered.She stayed there for some time and she felt there was no sign of her. She decided to leave feeling something wasn’t right. Suddenly she heard a click in the ground, she turned and looked at the house. It came from the inside and she peered inside the window.She can make out a frame in the dark, that’s lying on the ground. She can’t help but think that’s Priscilla and she must be lying there dead or unconscious. That’s a wild assumption yet she doesn’t want to leave without checking on her.She went to the door, and using all her strength, she hit it with her shoulders. She did that several times, but only her shoulders hurt.“Even if you try all day, it won’t open,” Priscilla’s voice came from behind.
As he entered the house, he saw Sirena in the kitchen, cooking dinner for him, unaware that he had been with Grace all this time.“Why are you so late?” she asks.He gave the flowers and kissed her lips. She looked surprised and he thought she loved him too much but in reality, she was surprised to see his perfect ac.“Thanks,” she got that in her hands and kept that aside.“Go and fresh up. I’ll finish this up,” she said and he nods.After he left, Lulu asked, “Did you smell that?”“Smell what?”“He smells like Grace. Her perfume smell coming mildly from her,” Lulu said.Sirena sighs. It makes her heart heavy. She can’t help but have tears to think that she’s too unlucky.“Are you okay?”“Yes, I’m fine,” she nodded and wiped the tears that slid down to her cheeks.“Do you have to do this?”“Yes,”“You don’t have to go through this. Just leave all this behind,”“Where else can I go?”“Anywhere, you got some cash in your hand. You can go far away and start anew,”“They will find me,” s
