"It wasn't a mistake, I did it on purpose and that's because – I like you."
I froze, my eyes widening and almost popping out of their sockets. Wha – what is he saying?"I know it sound sudden but I mean it." He repeated, his gaze intense."How come?" That was the only word I could get out of my mouth after minutes of staring at him in shock."What do you mean?" He asked."I mean, how can you like someone like me?" I certainly didn't understand how an Alpha like him could possibly like me. Moreso, I was pregnant, for another man, so how?His face warped into an annoyed frown. "What do you mean by someone like you? Aren't you worth loving? Is that how you think it yourself?" His voice suddenly became raised, mad my lips pursed. Why is he suddenly angry?I bit my lip."I just didn't expect it." I mumbled slowly and he sighed. "I know it's sudden, but think about it." He said and then he was out.Blinking repeatedlyJAREDWatching Avery gaze at the dueling men with a captivated smile infuriated me. What was so fascinating about them?! I had to restrain myself from storming the stage and putting an end to the spectacle. Instead, I kept my eyes fixed on her, hoping she'd lose interest and leave.As I watched her, my eyes suddenly to a guy dressed in all black. He was staring at Avery which made my brows furrow. He suddenly turned to me, our eyes locked and from here, I could see his eyes dilate slightly, but it didn't last cause he walked away. Tilting my head confusedly, I turned back to Avery who was still focused on the duel.I rolled my eyes and continued watching her, still hoping she would leave. But she watched until the very end, leaving me wondering if she was really that enthralled. As the duel finished, she walked away from the crowd into the streets, and I followed her. But she suddenly halted, her eyes fixed intently on something ahead. I followed
Groaning lowly, my eyes fluttered open, scanning the area. I was in a small room, which was a bit dark, the sun emitting through the small window which was the size of a purse gave it light.Looking down at myself, I realized I was tied to a chair, which made my brows furrow. How did I get here and why am I tied to a chair? I was still trying to figure what was happening when I heard footsteps and then, the door opened.Curiosity enveloped me as I watched as the person walked in. It was a tall man who was fully bearded and had a stoic face. "Who are you? Why am I here?" I let out my question slowly and quietly."That's not something you need to know." His voice came out harsh and it almost made me scoff "What do you mean I don't need to know when you brought me here? Why am I here?!" I snapped and he chuckled. "Acting all powerful? Well, you will know when she comes."My brows furrowed. "She? Who is that?""That's me." The door opened and a lady stepped in - Lisa.My eyes widened "L
JAREDI pulled into the garage of my pack house and turned off the engine.As I stepped out of the car, another car pulled up in front of me and Lisa came out, a huge smile appeared on her face when shs saw me."Jared, you are finally back!" She exclaimed as she rushed to me.I ignored her and tried to walk away but she grabbed my arm, holding me back."Let go!" Whipping my head towards her, I growled out but she shook her head, and I felt her hand tighten around mine."You're just coming after many days and you won't – ""Fucking let go!" I yelled and drew hands forcefully from her before storming inside, heading straight for my father's suite. After spending the whole night trying to find Avery, it was all to no avail. I decided to come here instead, with one person in mind, which was my father. He dislikes Avery and was the only one with the ability to take Avery hostage.When I got to his room, I met him on a call with someone, but his gaze shifted to me the moment I walked in.I
AVERYWith my gaze on the burly man, whose eyes was on his phone, I tried to get through to Alpha Jared and Alpha Drew. I've been doing this for sometime now, but it just keeps bouncing back. The guy suddenly looked up, almost making flinch.My brows furrowed when the guy suddenly smirked. "What are you trying to do?" I blinked, keeping my mouth shut which made him scoff. "You're not trying to mindlink someone, are you?" My eyes widened in surprise. How did he know?"I see, that's what it is." He chuckled. "You shouldn't waste your time though, cause it's not gonna work. You see that thing on your wrist," I turned my head to check but I couldn't see anything. "it's hindering you from mindlinking anybody, so just give up and take your death obediently."I frowned. This jerk – how can he tell me to take my death obediently. I grinded my teeth against each other to stop myself from saying anything that would. put me in more troubl
JARED"Help me!" The desperate cry in my mind link jolted me awake. I recognized Avery's voice instantly. I quickly tried to mindlink her again but it bounced back filling me with surprise and concern.Yet, the knowledge that Avery was still alive gave me hope. I leapt off the couch, where I had fallen asleep on, and connected my mind with Drew's as I tried mindlinking him. But, as expected, he blocked my attempt. Just as I was about to give up, his gruff voice responded. "What do you want?"'Any leads?' I asked, hastily.'No, I'm trying to track her scent to nearby packs but it's yielding nothing so far.''Keep trying.' I said and he scoffed. 'You don't get to order me ar – " I cut him off before he could continue and mind-linked and mind-linked Mavis to come. Within minutes, Mavis arrived."Found anything?" I asked abruptly. He shook his head. "It's as if she vanished without a trace. No one has also seen her.""She mind-linked me." I said His eyes widened. "She did?!"I nodded,
AVERY"Ah!" My eyes snapped open at the feel of cold water against my skin. I slowly opened my eyes and it landed on a pair of legs which was right it front of me. Slowly and in fear, I slowly gazed up but I flinched at the sight of Princess Lisa staring daggers at me.Her lips curved up into a smirk. She crouched down to my level before stretching her hand out to my face. I flinched at the feel of her finger against my skin, irritated, annoyed and angered. The urge to thwart her hand away from my face came but that would just anger her more."Are you scared?" Her voice came, slow and drawled, then she snickered. "Well, you should be."She let out a sly smile, suddenly grabbing my hair and pulling me up from my lying position. "You will pay for trying to escape." She smirked and before I knew it, she hit my head on the chair."Ahh!" I yelped as pain shot through my brain but that wasn't it. My head came in contact with the chair again. I could hear a bang in my head as she hit did i
"How is she?" I asked the doctor immediately he finished treating Avery.He let out a sigh, his shoulders slumping. "She is okay for now, but...""But what?" I cut in, my patience growing thin. He sighed once again making my brows furrow in confusion and curiousness about what would make him sigh continuously."I something wrong?""I'm sorry, but she lost the pup." A loud bang in my head had me taking a step back and almost falling as his words seeped into my head."It's a joke, right?" I queried, He bowed, shaking his head. "I'm sorry."A scoff let itself out of my lips. I shook my head, refusing to believe his words. "It's not possible.""I'm sorry Alp – "I let out a bitter laugh, cutting his words shut. My hands went to my hair, pulling hard at the strands as the doctor's words repeated in my head. It's not true. I can't. My gaze drifted to Avery on the bed and my upper lip went in between my teeths. I bit down on it hard. From the corner of my eyes, I saw the doctor's lips mov
AVERY"Are you okay?" Princess Riley asked the moment Alpha Jared walked out, but I ignored her, letting my tears flow."Ooh... stop crying." She cooed, settling beside me. Her arms went around me in a hug, but it only made my tears increase.The news about my pup's death felt like my heart was pricked with sharp thongs, breaking it heart countlessly. I'm such a worthless mother, I could not even protect my pup from that sly witch. I just... I don't know what to do.My tears kept falling for long minutes then Princess Riley suddenly pulled out, she took ber thumb to my face and began wiping my tears. "You should stop crying, huh.""Where is she?" I asked wordlessly and her expression turned to confusion. "Who?""Lisa... she killed my child." I replied, locking eyes and she sighed. "She is nowhere to be found, so we assume she is dead.""What do you mean? She isn't dead, she stabbed me, she killed my child." I said desperately, pointing at my stomach.Princess Riley smiled lightly and
