Maxine's POVLiam's change in attitude towards me was gradual but noticeable. He wasn't as hard or cold as he used to be. I could see it in the way he spoke to me, in the way he looked at me. It was like a heavy weight had been lifted, and I could finally breathe a little easier.One morning, as I was preparing breakfast, Liam walked into the kitchen. I braced myself, expecting some criticism or command, but instead, he simply watched me for a moment before speaking."Maxine," he said, his tone was softer than usual. "That smells good. What are you making?"I turned, surprised by his interest. "Just some eggs and toast. Do you want some?"He nodded. "Yes, that would be nice. Thank you."As I cooked, I felt his eyes on me, but instead of feeling uncomfortable, it felt... different. There was a warmth to his gaze that hadn't been there before. When I handed him his plate, he took it with a small smile."Thank you, Maxine.""You're welcome," I replied, trying to hide my surprise.Later t

Liam's POVAs I sat in the garden, Clara's words echoed in my mind, gnawing at my thoughts. I couldn't stop the feeling of betrayal that washed over me. Maxine had been spending time with Tobias when I gave her a day off. Despite all the care I had shown her recently, she chose to betray me in the most hurtful way. She was mine and not Tobias.I needed answers, and I needed them now. I looked at Maxine, my emotions were becoming a turbulent storm inside me."Maxine," I said sternly as I stared at her directly in her eyes. "Who is Tobias actually to you?"I had asked this question over and over again but I kept getting the same answer but different action.She looked at me with fear in her eyes. "I… I’ve told you, Master. He's just my friend and I see him as a big brother."I took a deep breath, trying to control my anger. "You heard what Clara said just now. She said to your face that you were with my guard the day I gave you off. Is that true or not? I want to know what relationship

Liam's POVThe news about Tobias and Maxine always spending time together pressed heavily on my mind. I couldn't shudder off the feeling of betrayal and disappointment from my thoughts. Maxine and Tobias. It felt like a thorn in my side, and I knew I had to deal with it. But how? Maxine had been nothing but helpful, organizing and creating a positive impact within the pack.

Liam's POVI was still in my study working tirelessly to clear up the junk of files I had on my desk.Kris entered the study, his expression was grim. "Liam, I heard what happened. Isn't your decision too harsh? She's too fragile to be in that hole. I don't think she will survive there.” Kris stated in one breath.Kris had taken a liking to Maxine and had always been advocating for her. But I don't care who he tries to protect but I won't stand and watch an omega insult me.“Kris, Maxine has eaten more than he can chew. It’s time to reset her brain.”Kris sighed and glanced at me, he knew I was serious. “Are you sure about this?" he asked. "Maxine has done so much for the pack. Isn't it enough to pardon her? Or find a less dangerous punishment for her.""She defied me," I replied, my voice sounding very cold. "This is her punishment. And until I am satisfied that she has learned, she will remain there."Kris sighed, shaking his head. "You need to be careful, Liam. Maxine has a mind of

MaxineDays turned into an agonizing routine. Each morning, I would wake up to the sound of distant footsteps, hoping it was Tobias coming to rescue me. But it never was. The food they brought was barely enough to keep me alive. At this point, I wanted to die. I was tired, I was living the life of a criminal.I didn't deserve to be here, this is so unfair but I accepted my mistakes. I'm never going to be disrespectful anymore. If only Liam could give me this last chance. I’ve learned my lessons. This was too much.Sometimes, the other prisoners noticed how my life was gradually slipping away from me, they tried to give me hope. Sometimes they would rather encourage me to eat my food."Here, take some more," the old woman offered, breaking off a piece of bread and handing it to me. It was my food yet I lacked appetite in my hunger.I shook my head, my eyes filled with emptiness. As tears drop from my eyes. I gestured for her to eat instead."You need it more than I do, child.

Maxine's POVThe old woman's words began to seep into my consciousness, filling the cracks that despair had been created through pain and suffering.

Every day, I pondered what to do. What could I possibly offer that would change their minds? My mind was racing for a situation But no matter how hard I thought, nothing seemed to come. One day, as I sat in the low light filtering through the small window, I began to sing softly. It started as a hum, a simple melody that rose and fell with my breath.

Maxine’s POVThe moonlit festival was a dream come true. I had been experiencing it for years but it never felt like this one. This felt so special, it may be because I performed. As I stood among my friends, singing and laughing under the light of the full moon, the memory of my time in the dungeon faded away. I didn't even remember at all that I had been in such a terrible place before. For the first time in a long while, I felt free. The elders' kindness, the applause from the audience, and the friendship of my fellow singers filled my heart with joy. This was all I needed in life. This deep sense of joy and purpose. I just felt the moon goddess wanted me to be happy this time and I hope she completes it by giving me a wolf tonight.We danced and sang, making the most of this magical night. Elena's words kept echoing in my mind, urging me to find peace even in chaos. Surprisingly, I hadn't seen her so I decided to check on her after the celebration. She was a part of me that I di

Maxine’s POVAs we waited in earnest for the appearance of the full moon, my gaze wandered across the crowd, taking in the joyous faces around me. Despite the joy that surrounded me, I still miss Tobias and Elena. How I wish they were here. It would be one of my greatest nights ever.“I miss you, Tobias, Elena. Please come back home wherever you are.” I muttered.with laughter, music, and the laughter of people. As I scanned the meeting, then my eyes stood on a familiar figure. I couldn't take my eyes away. It was as if my eyes were glued to the person. I squinted, trying to see clearly through the throng of people. Could it be? My heart skipped a beat.“Elena?” I called out, stepping closer.The figure turned, and to my delight, it was indeed Elena. She looked exhausted, but her face was glowing with happiness—and something else. As I approached, I noticed her swollen belly. She was pregnant!“Elena!” I exclaimed, rushing to her side. “I can’t believe it! You’re here and you’re… pr

MAXINEI got a job working at the pack hospital again. This time, I signed up to be a real medical practitioner. I was going to become a midwife. There were a few familiar faces at the hospital and lots of new ones.Still, I was grateful to Ronan for giving them this opportunity again.That evening, I walked back into my apartment. The dead herbs were still in a box on the floor in the kitchen. I wondered if I would go back. I used to pick herbs and sell them to women who wanted to get pregnant.It felt like eons ago. Times were simpler. Back then, I saved lives not help take them. That was a time when I didn’t have blood on my hands.I sighed, running my fingers through my hair. I wanted my simple life again. It was simple but everything made sense. I didn't have to try to untangle myself from this mess that was my reality.A knock on the door brought me back. Zel was back from work. She worked as a bartender a little while from our apartment. Zel had gotten the job. After the manag

MAXINEI nodded, not trusting myself to speak without crying. Ella was right. I needed to let myself grieve. The love I once had for Ronan still occupied my heart.Lindsey reached out and held my hand. "We’re here for you, Maxine."I squeezed her hand, grateful for their support. They were right. I didn’t have to go through this alone. I had them.Maybe it wasn't so bad after all.***Going back to my old life felt like stepping into a strange place. There was the feeling of losing something. My apartment felt like a place from a faraway memory. Zel was gone and I was feeling so sad.I was back from saying goodbye. I unlocked the door and stepped inside. The space was just as I’d left it. There was still dust over everything. At least, I had something to do with my time.I took a deep breath. I hadn't lost everything. I was still okay.I began to clean up slowly. Lindsey stopped by to help me out and together, we covered a lot. As I was cleaning, I heard a knock on the door.“Are you

MAXINEI wanted to believe her that everything would be okay but deep down, I felt guilt and grief. This was my fault. I pulled back from her and wiped my eyes. I gave her a shaky smile. “It doesn’t feel like it.”She cupped my cheek. “Everything isn't always as it seems, my dear. But, I can tell you one thing I know for sure.” She said.“What's that?”“It's not your fault. I'm sure you don't know where to go from here, what to do, or where you belong. You want to come with me, you want to continue your life back at the place where you and Zel liked and you want to go back to how things were in this pack.” Cinder explained.“But, I see you staying here. This is where your strength lies, where hope lives, where you have friends and support.” She lowered her eyes and winked. “It's where you have a future.”“And, we'll always be here for you to fall back on, regardless of what happens. We're your home away from home.” The Luna Queen said, putting her hand on my shoulder. “I'm very proud.

MAXINEI didn't feel anything. No pain from a stab whatsoever. I looked between us and that's when Ronan smiled. His lips were close to my ear and he whispered, “I would never hurt you on purpose, love.”I didn't know when I screamed.Ronan collapsed into my arms, taking the both of us down to the ground with him. I tried my best to hold his head up on my lap. My eyes traveled down to the blood pouring down the stab wound in his belly.“Ronan,” I called, tears filling my eyes and rolling down my cheeks. He had stabbed himself.My hand shook as it hovered over the wound. I didn't know what to do. The dagger was in his chest.Ronan had chosen death. Death over a life without me.“Maxine…” he called, his voice unnaturally calm for someone who was dying. He reached up to touch me and I guided his hand to my cheek.“I'm here, I'm here,” I cried. “I'm sorry,” I whispered the last part. My hands shook as I held him. I never wanted this. I didn’t want him to die.Ronan gasped. He looked up

MAXINEI held my breath as Ronan kept his eyes on mine. When he was close enough, he stopped. Neither of us said a word. The battle continued around us but I couldn't get myself to make the first move.He didn't either. I wondered if it was hard for him to see me. I wondered if he thought he could fight me. I also wondered if he thought that he could kill me.I spoke up first. “Ronan,” I called. My voice was sounding more longing than I wanted.I missed him, to be honest. I missed sitting down in the quiet and reading books. Strangely, I missed making his cinnamon coffee.Ronan didn't say anything. Instead, he took a step closer. “You don’t have to do this,” he said.There was no hurt, no anger in his voice, just nothing but kindness. I wished he would yell. I wished he would curse me and call me evil for everything I've done.“Come with me.” He said, softly. I heard it regardless of the noise. “We can fix this, Maxine. We'll leave everything behind together.”It sounded so good. But,

MAXINEHe caught me off guard. It meant that he still cared about me. I didn't focus on that though. “I won’t, I promise,” I replied.We stood there in silence for a while, neither of us knowing what to say. I could feel it though. I could feel it. The unspoken feelings and questions we didn't have the time to ask.Or we didn't dare to ask, I guess.After everything that had happened, I still wasn’t sure where we stood. I said I was okay with him hating me but, I didn't know anymore. The lines between us were confusing now. I didn't know how to fix that.But now wasn’t the time to focus on that. We had a mission and that was a priority. Every other thing could come after. We would cross that bridge later.For some reason, Liam stepped closer and I held my breath. “Regardless of what has happened between us, out there?” He said, “No matter what happens, we’ll get through this together. Do you understand?”I nodded. “Together,” I repeated.Before I could say anything else, Zel appeared

MAXINECinder gave me and Zel a brief of the plans that night when she showed us a bedroom. She and the Luna Queen were sharing the one right next to us. They told us to come to them if we faced any issues.Sleep didn't come easy because my mind was entirely on Ronan. I didn't know how I was going to face him again after betraying his trust. But, I knew I couldn't sit out of this fight.The sun had not even risen when I was woken up by the sound of Liam's voice. He was given instructions and I heard more footsteps around the house than the number of people I had seen the previous day.It meant that Liam was already up and gathering the troops. I could hear him giving commands like it hadn't been two months since he was last in power. He was a natural-born leader. He carried this air of authority around him.He was giving orders, explaining ranks and positions for this fight. Every single detail was important to winning.Zel was still asleep, of course.

MAXINEI chuckled bitterly. “What about now?” I asked. “Will you take me back now that I have a wolf? Isn't that what you've always wanted?”His eyes widened slightly but he kept himself composed. “That would be unfair to you. It would be wrong. If you want to come back to me, I will take you but the choice is yours now. You have a choice and I see now that I was wrong. I’m so sorry, Maxine. I hope you can forgive me.”Tears welled up in my eyes. I hadn't thought about this but I let the anger roll away from me. He was still family. He was my father. “I forgive you. You're my father, whether you abandon me or not.” I said.“Thank you, Maxine.” He said. He reached for me hesitantly. I would have settled for a handshake but he wrapped his hands around me. For the first time in what I knew was forever, my father hugged me.I didn't know what to feel about that.LIAMAfter Maxine spoke to her father, they returned to the living room.

LIAMDespite everything that was unfolding in front of me, my thoughts were stuck on one thing.Maxine had a wolf.I couldn't wrap my head around it. After everything that had happened to her, it didn’t make sense. I glanced at her. The strange white-haired girl was sitting between us.Maxine was staring out of the window. The white-haired girl squeezed her hand. Maxine turned to look at her and offered her a small smile. That was when she caught me staring. She looked away, taking her eyes back to the window.It left me confused. Was she pissed at me? I was the one who had the right to be mad at her. She had chosen him over me. Well, the distance between us was necessary.I didn't know what I would say or do if I were sitting next to her. Kris took a sharp turn, causing Maxine to grab the handle of the car door. I opened my mouth to say something but I stopped myself. There would be time for questions later.“You alright back there?” Varis asked.“We’re fine,” I said. I didn't know i
