“Oh, wait a sec,” I said, reaching into my back pocket and pulling out a small velvet bag with drawstrings. “I thought you might like these.” He looked at me, puzzled, before taking the bag and reaching inside.

“Hey,” he grinned as he pulled out a beaded chain with two metal pendants. After his accident, I’d kept his old ones safe, but I thought he’d appreciate some new ones to match his new rank and pack. He draped them around his neck, examining the engravings and pictures. “These are awesome, I really dig them,” he said, running his thumb over the metal image of me and Estelle.

“I’ll make sure to keep you and Estelle in mind and look forward to coming back home.” Frederick planted a sweet kiss on my forehead, then gently brushed his lips against mine while tilting my chin up. I tried to suppress my emotions by closing my eyes, but the intensity of the moment overwhelmed me.

“Hey, guess what? Seraphina is coming to stay with you! We thought it’d be safer, and I thought you could us

    "Perhaps Frederick lit them before he left," Darius mentioned, casually extinguishing the candles. We weren't exactly keen on fire hazards these days. Darius was clearly on edge; Frederick had really hammered in how risky their missions could be. "Yeah, it's all good." Maybe I just couldn’t remember because I was so exhausted. I said that, and Darius gave me a casual half-smile before continuing to check the rest of the house.When I finally made it back to the sink, I grabbed a towel to dry the last pot. I was completely drained and just wanted to crawl into bed. But the thought of falling asleep alone made it feel even harder to get some rest tonight. As I reached for my rings, I realized they weren’t where I’d left them. Can you believe it? I checked the counter and the sink but came up empty."Frederick is going to get me," I whispered, crouching on the floor and peering into the corners of the molding."Hey, what’s happening?" Seraphina asked as she turned the corner of the islan

    "I didn’t want to tell Hugo. I didn’t want to add to his worries." Despite her cheerful news, there was an undercurrent of unease. She looked troubled, and I chose not to press further with the others around. Maybe it was Hugo’s absence or something else entirely."Wow, Seraphina, that’s fantastic!" I said, genuinely happy for her. "Everyone else chimed in with their congratulations, and the conversation soon shifted back to the meal."I had a quick chat with our doctor before we left," Seraphina whispered, her voice barely audible. "He said Diego can handle things while I stay here." She looked around nervously, making sure no one overheard. "The baby looks a lot like me, and I'm worried Hugo might not be too thrilled about it.""Don’t worry, he won’t let you down," I said, squeezing her hand. Her skin felt colder than usual, which made me wonder what was bothering her. She pulled her hand away quickly. "Yeah, Diego is great," I added, trying to reassure her. Seraphina nodded and ret

  • Stolen Luna By The Rival Alpha   Chapter 248: Thirty Seconds

    “Hey Diego, Darius is in my bed and he’s bleeding badly,” I said urgently. “Can you come over here quickly?”I shouted into the phone, “It’s not good!” The gravity of the situation hit me—Darius was on the brink of death, and there was the unsettling possibility of an external threat involved....The storms had rolled in and caused some serious damage. The ponds were overflowing, and the trees, unable to withstand the strong winds, had crashed down. It took about a day for Darius to start showing signs of improvement. I thought about calling Frederick to update him, but it seemed pointless. He was too far away to help, and the call would only add to his stress. So, I settled into the most uncomfortable chair I could find next to Darius’s bed, trying to ignore the constant beeping of his heart monitor and the steady suction sound of his breathing machine.“Hey, Anastasia?” Darius stirred, his eyes fluttering open briefly before closing again. He looked exhausted and drained. It seemed

    “I’m a bit confused,” I murmured, feeling a shiver of intimidation from his tone. His anger was so intense that it left me scrambling for words. I could tell he expected answers from me, but I was at a loss.“Don’t you get it?” Frederick snapped. “Do you think I’m an idiot?” He sounded incredulous. “Eros was like, ‘Duh, it’s a no-brainer!’ What’s up with Eros? I tried to piece it together, but Frederick and Eros hadn’t even been able to talk since Eros’s phone was stolen. “He’s been texting me about you and Darius getting closer.” I felt a pang of guilt for inadvertently revealing that Eros still had feelings for me.“Hey, Frederick, I’m really confused by what you’re saying!” I said, my frustration rising as his anger seemed to engulf me. I stumbled over my words, shocked at the intensity of his reaction. “Hey there, G-Frederick!”“Could you please stop calling me that?” Frederick’s voice was seething with rage. “These pictures of you and Darius in our bed, both of you naked...

    "Hey Frederick, I swear I can totally explain everything. Just trust me, that's all I need."I noticed him sigh and complain, and then I witnessed him forcefully hit the phone against an object."Hey, just trust me," I pleaded, feeling the tears well up in my eyes."Hey, I gotta run because we're about to head out. Hey Anastasia, feel free to do whatever you want. I really don't want to see it, like ever. Let's figure out what the law says when I get home. Divorce? So, was he talking about a breakup and getting rejected? "Do you understand what I'm saying?""Hey, Frederick, I love you. To be completely frank, I'm being honest with you. I wouldn't do something like that to you! Hey, there's someone in the house, someone--" The call got disconnected when the reception started acting up. I let out a cry from deep within, and my tears stung my skin as they streamed down my face.I felt kinda lonely and stuck, like we were surrounded by the enemy, whoever they were, closing in on us from e

    "But Frederick doesn't work for you," I whispered, feeling a mix of confusion and desperation. That was the only part that didn't fit well. The Winona did what they did to create a force of soldiers who would be prepared to fight and equipped with weapons. Oh, there's no way Frederick would ever do that."Well, he'll just have to do what I say, won't he?" Darius smirked. "Maybe I'll even promise to return you to him in a couple of years. I've been waiting forever to snag that Frederick Henson. He's incredibly valuable to a whole army. Has he ever been in a fight? What an amazing creature!"Darius came closer, and I could catch a whiff of alcohol and tobacco on him. "All I want from Frederick is for him to be a valuable asset in my army, causing chaos among smaller packs as I expand my rule.""He won't give a damn about me after seeing those pictures you sent him." My voice shook as I thought about the heart-wrenching phone call. When I mentioned it, Darius just laughed, fully aware of

    "Alright," he murmured, gently placing his hands on my shoulders. The sensation of his touch sent a shiver down my spine, making me feel on edge. His hands crept up the back of my neck, his fingertips lightly brushing against my skin. He grabbed a handful of my hair and pulled it back, making me gasp. He found my reaction amusing, his other hand inching closer to my throat. Before I could react, he shoved me onto the counter, his grip on the back of my neck keeping me pinned. I tried to push myself up, using my hands for support, but his strength was overwhelming. This couldn't be happening. The sound of his belt buckle coming undone sent a wave of panic through me. No matter how much I struggled, he refused to let go. Desperately, I rummaged through the counter, searching for anything to use against him, but I found nothing. He tugged my shorts down, his fingers grazing my skin."Nah, don't do it, please," I pleaded, tears streaming down my face. As I glanced up, I saw Jericho peeki

    HugoFrederick was hesitant to go home, so I figured I’d head there myself. I didn’t think my sister had cheated—it just didn’t fit her character. I believed there had to be another explanation. Frederick was never one for logic; he could handle any difficult situation that came his way.Frederick stopped talking to the estate once he learned about the scandal involving Darius and Anastasia. Seraphina hadn’t answered her phone in days, which had me on edge. I figured it was best to return before the rest of the crew did.As I cruised past the iron gates, a chill ran down my spine. The car reeked of smoke, and the charred ashes coming through the vents nearly made me pass out. Despite the pouring rain, small fires still flickered in the brush. The place was a disaster—everything burned, and the estate home looked like it was about to collapse. It seemed like it had been left to rot for ages. In just a week and a half, the damage was staggering. It felt like I couldn’t catch my breath.

    As Frederick closed in on Zion, his eyes burned with a fierce desire for revenge. The effects of the sickness still lingered, fueling his rage. “I’ll get you, you traitor!” Frederick roared, his voice echoing with anger.Zion, though fully aware of the gravity of the situation, fought not just for his own survival but for the peace they all desperately sought. “Anastasia only needs you, Frederick!” he pleaded. “Don’t let your anger destroy everything we’ve worked for!”Just as Frederick was about to strike, a voice cut through the chaos. “Hey, hold up!”Anastasia stepped between them, her eyes a mixture of sadness and resolve. “Frederick, come on!” she called out, her voice trembling with a blend of fear and determination. “We need to find another way.”But Frederick, driven by rage, didn’t even glance her way. His focus remained fixed on Zion, and he ignored her plea.Desperate to reach Frederick, Anastasia called out again. “Frederick, it’s me! It’s Anastasia!” Her voice was laced w

    “She’s with Zion,” I said casually, watching his face change as fear and anger flashed across his features.“Who is Zion?” His confusion was clear, and I could see that talking about my sister was only making things worse. My hesitation to be completely honest had led us here, but I had to face the consequences.“Xandriel’s kid,” I explained. The fear in Frederick’s eyes was unmistakable. The gravity of the situation was sinking in.Frederick’s frustration flared again. “Are you serious?” he demanded, his voice rising. “Where are they?”“Hey, Frederick, let’s just hang tight,” I said, trying to calm him. “We’ve got a plan, and I’m confident it’s going to work. You’ve got to trust me on this one.” To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I believed myself, but Victor was our last hope. If this plan failed, it would be the end of the line.“I’m here to lend a hand and sort this out,” Frederick pleaded as I removed the final sensors from him, triggering the beeping monitors once more. Despite his

    “You’re not feeling well,” I said nonchalantly, not even bothering to look at him. It was like fate had led us to this moment. It was wild to think we’d end up here, but it felt like it was meant to be.Frederick let out an exasperated sigh, clearly uncomfortable. “I’ve never been sick,” he said, sounding both frustrated and bewildered. The bed creaked as he shifted, and the sheets rustled around him.“Hey, there’s a first time for everything. Just chill,” I advised, watching as he struggled to sit up. To my surprise, he actually listened, though it was clear the pain was taking its toll. “You’re not the strongest, but that’s totally fine.”“I can’t be weak,” he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper, as he noticed the IV tubes snaking into his arms. The sight of him, once a formidable Warrior, now so vulnerable, was unsettling.I was still angry as he said, “You would either be this way or dead.” The room fell into a heavy silence as he stared at me, his expression one of confusi

    When Darius mentioned dinner plans, Zion grabbed my arm and pulled me away, his urgency almost making me forget we were pretending. As we walked down the hallway, Darius called out, “This party is going to be one for the books!” I clung to Zion, gripping his wrists for support. My mind raced, trying to take in my surroundings in case things went wrong. Zion guided me into a bedroom and closed the door behind us, marking the end of what felt like an interminable journey.“Hugo,” I breathed, my anxiety spiking as I turned to face Zion. Hugo seemed like a real threat to our plans. “Nah, Zion, I just can’t—I really can’t.”Darius’s voice was reassuring as he said, “I won’t let him lay a finger on you, Anastasia. You just have to trust me.” He mentioned a dinner with friends to celebrate Victor, just as Zion had said. “Just gotta get through dinner, and our armies will be here.”I shook my head slightly, grabbing Zion by the shirt. “Can’t stop him. He’s a force to be reckoned with.” Hugo

    “Oh, it’s for Frederick,” I said casually. His name stumbled awkwardly off my tongue. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I wished we could just be together as we should be—he was the only one I truly loved. We started this journey together. When Frederick wakes up, I’ll be gone, and I have no clue how he’ll handle that.Zion’s curiosity piqued, “How do you do this? Despite everything that’s happened, you still think it’ll get better?” He seemed to have his own scars, a hint of betrayal in his voice.“One day, there’s gotta be a light in the dark,” I replied, trying to stay hopeful. “I didn’t come all this way just to stop now.”Zion placed his hand over mine on the middle console, a casual gesture but one that held a lot of weight. “You good to go? Can you trust me?”“Yeah, I don’t,” I admitted. Looking back, trusting him seemed like my only option. Tomorrow could be a game-changer for Frederick. It’s funny—never thought I’d be the one to take down Winona. Many had tried before me an

    “I’ve got a couple of things to mention,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “My aunt Margo gets away with it. Frederick keeps his distance. I don’t want him anywhere near them.” I gave a nod to indicate that was settled.“Yeah, I agree,” Zion said, casually crossing his arms and leaning back in his chair. “He won’t be waking up for a few days. Diego has enough power to keep him out for a while. Can we wrap this up?” His casual demeanor masked the gravity of the situation as I paced back and forth in front of Nereus, discussing our sneaky plan.“I can work as quickly as you need me to, sweetheart,” Zion assured, though the term of endearment stung. I felt a pang of guilt for going behind Frederick’s back while he lay unconscious, the weight of my actions heavy on my conscience. “This is our only chance. If we mess this up, we’re all going to end up six feet under on that Winona farm. This is our one shot, so we’d better not blow it.”“So, what’s the game plan?” I asked, trying to f

    Curiosity nudged me as I trailed behind Diego and the others. “Do you think he’ll remember anything he did while the wolf was in control?” I asked casually, my voice barely above a whisper.“No way,” Jamie replied. That was the answer I’d hoped for. The thought that he wouldn’t remember my lies or the sting of the needle brought a small, bitter relief. Still, the guilt gnawed at me for causing him pain. Cassius stayed close, a quiet presence as we watched Frederick being carried down the hallway.“You did the right thing,” Cassius said softly, as if sensing my turmoil. But something felt off. The pain of betrayal cut deep, a raw ache I had never experienced before. The treachery felt like a knife twisting inside me.“I wish it didn’t hurt so much,” I whispered, trying to shove the painful memory aside. Suddenly, Nereus burst back up the stairs, blocking our path.“Hey, Anastasia, you might want to come downstairs,” Nereus said, his voice tinged with unease. I shot a look at Cassius, w

    Eventually, footsteps roused me from my restless sleep, guiding me to the other side of the bedroom door. When Frederick walked in, I let out a sigh of relief. The deep concern I felt for him was overwhelming, and I could barely stand it."I swung by Diego's office first, but you weren’t there," Frederick said casually, loosening his tie. I closed my eyes, trying to ignore the nagging thought of that ring sitting untouched in the desk drawer."I'm feeling much better," I said, forcing a smile. If he’d been paying attention, he’d have seen through the lie."I noticed that," he remarked, unbuttoning his shirt with a relaxed air. I shifted restlessly on the bed, trying to play it cool and hoping he wouldn’t catch on."Where have you been?" Frederick chuckled as if it was the most ridiculous question. "I got a bit concerned when you weren’t around when I woke up.""I left Rollo to take care of you," I said, watching as he turned away. He placed his rings on the desk and reached for two ne

    I tread carefully, trying to avoid rushing and risk encountering more trouble at the cellar stairs. The silence around me was eerie, and I kept my eyes sharp, scanning for any sign of danger. My mind flitted to the idea of calling my dad, but I hesitated. I didn’t want him dragged into this mess, fearing he might try to drag me back home. Maybe it was pride, or maybe it was the fear of his interference.Then there was Estelle. I thought about her growing up, reaching her prime, and hoped she’d never have to rely on her body like I had. It was comforting, though, to see her following in her father’s footsteps in her own way, even if it wasn’t ideal."Anastasia?" I heard Nereus’s faint voice. I picked up the pace, jogging towards the sound. As I rounded the corner, I saw the boys restrained in separate corners, but Nereus was the only one awake."Nereus?" I knelt beside him and quickly worked on untying the ropes burning his wrists. They smelled strongly of wolfsbane. "What did those pe
