Chapter 73"What are you doing here? Didn't we agree that you'd sleep in the room while I slept here? Please, Darien, don't come here to add to my anger. Just leave, please." Darien went on his knees before she could complete her statement. "I know I wronged you once again, but please, Alisha, find a place in your heart to forgive me. I didn't know that she was going to kiss me. Please, Alisha, forgive me.""Forgive you? I'm tired of forgiving you! You do whatever you think is fit, then come back to apologize like I'm some sort of machine that doesn't have emotions! I'm fucking human, Darien. I have feelings. You can't just do whatever you like and then come back to apologize simply because you knew I was going to forgive you! Just leave already," she tried walking out, but he grabbed her hands."Just this once, Alisha. Give me another chance to make things right. I would never do anything that would hurt you. Believe me!" Alisha scoffed."Yeah, the same way you just kissed your ex.
Chapter 74Writer's POV:Drake hummed a song as he broke the last egg onto the plate.He was about to pour it into the hot pan over the fire when his mom rushed into the kitchen."I told Lisa I was joking when she told me you were the one cooking! Why would you be the one cooking? Where's your so-called fiancée?" His mom half-yelled."Not again, Mom. What's wrong with me cooking? I didn't ask you to cook, did I?"She hissed."Is this how she plans on treating you when you finally get married to her? She's not fit for you, son. Can't you just see it?""She's the one who usually does the cooking. You know I'm supposed to be in the hospital now, but I can't just wake her up or stress her. You know we had a really wild night yesterday, so she's tired. I didn't want to disturb her, so I'm making this breakfast to serve her in bed, then help her take a bath before I leave," he smiled happily, adding to his mother's annoyance."Is this what she's turning you into? A babysitter? What have I g
Chapter 75"That's what you concluded in your mind this morning to come tell me?" Drake chuckled."Drake! Don't talk to her in that manner!" His mom snapped."How should I talk to her? Do you want me to plead? What the hell is wrong with the both of you? Wait, Mom, have you always been this way or are you only doing this to piss me off?" His mom scoffed as she dished the remaining food from the pot."Here, baby, he made you breakfast. Don't mind how he's been acting towards you. He's not usually like this... He's only being shy." Lisa wiped her tears, then moved closer with the intention of hugging him, but the glare he gave her made her halt in her spot."It's high time you wake up from this slumber. My mom was only playing with you when she told you I was going to marry you. Think of it, Lisa, if you are dating a guy and his mom brings in another lady, how would you feel? Bad, right? That's exactly how my girlfriend feels at the moment. Just go home, Lisa; you will find someone who
Chapter 76Alisha's POVI walked out of the house only to see Henry standing there waiting for me.I wondered if the guards didn't see him or if they just allowed him in on purpose. It was after I asked the guard that I realized he told them I called for him... But when did I do that? I hope he's not here to implicate me."What are you doing here, Henry? So you finally got tired of snubbing me?" He smiled, a smile I could tell was fake."Funny how you just acted like we've never met after you got back with my brother. I don't deserve this, Alisha."I was watching a movie with Darien when I was told by a guard that someone was looking for me. Darien insisted on following the guard, but I managed to convince him to let me handle it.Now I'm here to meet Henry, the same guy who's been playing my son and me."Can't I come to see you again? Or has he stopped you from seeing me? I know he's always this way," Henry chuckled."I'm not here for this, Henry. I called you several times, but you
Chapter 77Outside the Pack"What? Did he get his wolf back? How did that happen? You see what I've been telling you, Henry? You shouldn't have let them get back together. Getting her wolf back is only because they reconciled. I tried stopping this, but you just won't listen! See what you've caused; now it will be very hard getting him down!""How is it my fault? You were the one who chose to get Dora into our game despite me telling you she'd ruin things for us. She's ruined everything, so why are you blaming me? You always blame me for every single thing that happens!""It wasn't my fault either, Henry. I thought she was going to do better. I didn't know she'd ruin everything for us. Let's just sit and plan something else. You can't give up now.""Don't you think killing him will get harder?""Not with me here, not when I have the wolf bone," she smirks."What? Do you want to use it on him? Don't you think that's a bit harsh?""It's not; it won't kill him at once. He will suffer in
Chapter 78Writer's POV***Drake's mom (Mrs. Mandes) dragged her bag into her house, looking really angry. The husband who was seated in the sitting room stood up to meet her at the door."You finally came back after spending the whole week there; I thought you'd stay back there and get married to your son," Mr. Mandes teased his wife."What's the meaning of that silly joke? What do you mean by staying back there to marry my son?" she hissed in anger."I've heard all you did to Drake's fiancée. I'm happy you finally got tired of trying to ruin a relationship you didn't build. Welcome," the old man went back to his seat."He told you? That ungrateful son of mine!" she hissed again."He didn't. In fact, I haven't heard from him since you left, and I believe it's due to how you were tormenting him and his fiancée," Mr. Mandes chuckled."If he didn't tell you, then who did?" She rolled her eyes, glaring daggers at her husband."Lisa; she came here yesterday and told me everything that ha
Chapter 79My stepdad was lying in his own pool of blood.I had second thoughts about going in to check if he was still breathing, but after some time I summoned the courage and went in.Seeing that he was still breathing, I pulled out my phone and dialed Darien's number. Even if he's a bad person, there's no way I would leave him to die this way.I looked around and saw the knife lying on the floor, then I realized that he had been stabbed—by whom?It was then I heard faint footsteps from behind. Then I knew I wasn't alone in the room.I stood up, only to see a lady, whom I guessed was his wife, standing behind me holding a knife with a deadly smirk playing on her lips."I wanted to kill him alone, but now that you are here, I think it's better to end you too," she chuckled."Who are you and why did you do this to him?""Do this to him?" She chuckled."Don't skip my questions! Why did you stab him?" I half-yelled, and she scoffed."I stabbed him because he deserved it! After everythi
Chapter 80"It's you? It's been a long, good afternoon," Drake smiled at Alisha."Yes, I requested to see you. How have you been and how's she?" Drake smiled happily."She's been fine. Trust me, having her is the best thing that happened to me," Alisha nodded."What happened? I was told you brought her to the hospital by a nurse. Is she okay?" Alisha asked, and the smile on his face disappeared."She fainted all of a sudden," Alisha's eyes widened."Don't tell me you are stressing her," Drake bent his head, thinking of how to tell her his fears."No, not that. She just fell all of a sudden, and it has something to do with her memory loss. I'm scared; what if she regains her memory and suddenly wants to leave me?" he asked, his voice sad and broken."That would depend on how you treated her during this past month. Just pray she doesn't remember suddenly," Alisha told him."She's been fine, but I'm still scared." Alisha touched his shoulders."It's okay.""Who's the man to you? I mean t
Chapter 159Dungeon* Dora followed the guard into the prison. Darien had agreed to let her see Sandra and have a few words with her.“There, ma'am, please don't go too close to her. She stabbed a maid who brought her food yesterday; she's looking for people to drag down alongside herself. She's holding a sharp object in her body, so you should not go near her,” the guard whispered to her."Sure, I won't go close to her. Thank you for telling me," she whispered back."Who do we have here? I've been hearing your name for some time; I guess I'm finally seeing your face."Immediately Sandra heard her voice, she quickly stood up and walked to the gate."Do I know you from somewhere? It's good to hear you say you've heard so much about me. I didn't know I was that popular.""Well, it's okay. I heard you killed Luna. That's so bold of you. I also heard you told the alpha you did it because you thought that was what he wanted. Who in God's name would want their mate dead if not a wicked witc
Chapter 158What? Do you want to see her? She's locked up, and why should I trust you that you won't do anything silly if I take you to see her?" Darien questioned."Oh, come on, I wouldn't have shown up here if I was still working for them. One thing I need you to understand is the fact that I never worked with them willingly. They fucking bewitched me; they made me do all sorts of mean things, and when I finally got myself back, they dumped me to suffer, just like they did to the Sandra lady.""Sandra? How come you know they sent her?""I don't need to be told by anyone because I heard it with my own ears. I heard them discuss it; they fucking sent her here for you, but she ended up doing otherwise, so they've abandoned her to face her fate.""How come she never mentioned any of this to me? She told me she came back because she was tired of staying with her friend, that's why she came back. I didn't even suspect anything, and trust me, everything that happened, I didn't know how it
Chapter 157Dora knocked on the gate for the umpteenth time; she'd been knocking for the past ten minutes, and funny enough, none of the guards came to open the gate. She just assumed none of them heard her, so she continued knocking.After some time, the gate finally opened."What is it? Can't you just understand the writing on the way and leave? On a normal occasion, the gate is usually open, so seeing it closed by this time, you were supposed to know the alpha doesn't want to see anyone, so just leave!" The guard snapped at her."I'm not leaving. Go in there and tell him I'm here to see him; he will surely come out to see me!" "Who are you? And why should I tell him you are here? Who are you to him?" The guard yelled."Go in and tell him Dora is here to see him.""Dora? Who's Dora? Why would you be coming here to look for him? The alpha is still mourning his Luna, so he's not in the mood to see anyone. Just go and return later. He will see you by then.""You don't just chase me aw
Chapter 156"So this is what you plan to do with me? Do you plan on dumping me like nothing when you've finally gotten what you've wanted? Oh wow! So this was it? You fucking want to dump me after everything. I can see, I've always known you, and your mom can’t be trusted, but trust me, I have a backup plan. If you think of bringing her back, brainwashing her to do your bidding, then leaving me like a fool, then you are wrong. You should be ready to face me tomorrow too. You both made my life this way, then you want to leave me to suffer? It's impossible!" They turned to look at her."Dora! How did you get in here? Didn't we agree you wouldn't come here to see me?" Henry asked, walking up to meet her."Oh yeah, you asked me not to come so you could do whatever you please. Yeah, you asked me not to, but I did anyway. If I hadn't come, then how would I have known what you have in store for me? I was a fool to have believed you loved me; you were only playing me! Oh wow, I have been fool
Chapter 155They both looked at her, pissed. Who would have believed they had been wasting their time telling her all this just for her to call it a story? She's mean.It took them so much effort to generate such a sweet story that matched her situation, but now she's not even close to taking what they said seriously."How could you say such a thing? We just told you everything that happened, yet you took it as a joke?" Emily scoffed in frustration."I'm not a kid. You just mentioned he's your stepson, so possibly you just want to use me to take revenge on him. You shouldn't stress yourself making up fake stories; I don't even know any of the people you just mentioned. So tell me, what do you need me to do for you? You saved my life, so you are my benefactor. Just tell me how you need me to help you. I don't remember anyone pushing me down the bridge. You know, I somehow have this feeling that you both are fudging these stories to tell me. You know I can tell when people are lying to
Chapter 154 Writer's POV:"No dear, that's not what you Heard, come on Come here," Michael told Daniel who was standing at the staircase listening to the conversations."Uncle please don't lie to me, tell me what happened to me mom, I know for sure that my mommy is not always, she would have been here like eye promised if everything was alright" Daniel insisted.Michael carried him in his arms then went back to place him on a seat and squat in front of him, the rest could only watch not knowing what or what not to say to the baby, he's a kid so on a norm he's not supposed to be told right away, but his constant resistance and the way he asked the question, it shows he already knew it, he was only asking to confirm."What happened to my mom, grandpa?" Seeing his Uncle Michael wasn't willing to answer him he turned to his grandpa."I'm so sorry dear, nothing happened, everything is alright, come on let's grandpa go cuddle you to sleep remember you asked for it in the morning," his gran
Chapter 153Please stop, please, they are all innocent," he cried."And my Luna isn't? You could have thought about the consequences of your actions before you did what you did. Even after you crashed the car, you still went ahead to force her down the bridge. You and everyone who belongs to you deserve to suffer for killing her. Neither you nor any of them deserve to live. I will do you the favor of killing them, and trust me, the world will praise me for this; the pack will sing my praises!" Darien yelled as he emptied the last bullet straight into the old woman's forehead."Mom! No, Mom, please, I'm sorry. I was paid to do it. I will tell you who sent me," he finally shouted."Good, go ahead," Sandra's heart raced."Darien, I don't think there's any need to ask him; he might blame me to implicate me," she told Darien. Darien threw her a deadly glare, forcing her to keep her mouth shut."Go on, speak!" The two remaining ladies were already panting hard, knowing they would suffer the
Chapter 152Mrs. Mandes fainted before he could complete his statement.Drake caught her before she could fall to the ground.Their dad didn't say a thing; he just clenched his fist, his breathing coming out rough, while Michael, on the other hand, had already taken his seat, his hands covering his face.If only their mom hadn't advised her to go back the day she came; if only he had protected her more. He wished he had stopped her from leaving; she would have been mad at him but not dead.**After a while, Drake had already taken their mom upstairs. He knew this would happen, so he came with his tools. He did everything and gave her an injection so she could rest."How did this happen? Is it why Darien has refused to pick up our calls? I guess he should be happy now; he has succeeded in killing her so he could marry his so-called friend.""It was a truck. The driver has been caught, and Alisha? She wasn't found; she fell down the bridge and the car exploded!" Michael cracked his knuc
Chapter 151Sandra walked from one edge of the room to another, panting. She had been calling the guy's line, but unfortunately, he wasn't picking up, and the thought bothered her so much.The guy not picking up could only mean one thing: either he had been caught or he was dead.A faint knock came on her door, and her poor heart couldn't help but skip. Her subconscious mind kept telling her that something was wrong."Who's there?" she asked slowly."It's me, ma'am," the maid replied.Already knowing the sort of person she appeared to be, Darien didn't bother sending a guard since she might suspect something was wrong; she might just decide to end her own life instead of being caught or blamed."How may I help you?" she asked as she opened the door.The maid smiled fondly and then replied, "The alpha is back; he sent for you.""Did anything happen? Do you know why the alpha called me?" she tried to get words out of the maid."No, ma'am, all is well. I think he got you a gift or someth
