SEBASTIAN'S POV.Three days had passed since I last saw Hailee. I had been too occupied with the Alpha meeting and other pack affairs to notice her absence. It wasn't until I demanded for her presence that I was informed that no one had seen her in the past three days. Panic seized me as I realized that I didn't know where she was or if she was okay.I left the Alpha meeting with a worried heart, my mind racing with all kinds of horrible scenarios. Did she escape? Was she kidnapped? Did someone hurt her? As I reached her room, I noticed that it was locked from the inside. My worry intensified as I broke the lock and found her shaking in a corner.Hailee looked completely broken beyond repair. She was pale, her eyes sunken and lifeless. My heart sank as I realized that I was the reason for her pain. I had locked her up, tortured her, and broken her spirit. I felt utterly awful for what I had done to her.I approached her slowly, trying not to startle her. "Hailee," I said softly. "It's
SEBASTIAN'S POV.As she moved away from me, I tried to reach out to her, to comfort her, but she screamed and pushed me away. She called me a devil, along with my father, before running out of the room. I was left there, confused and wondering how she knew my father.I had never mentioned him to her before, and the only people who knew about him were my close family members. So how did she know about him? And why did she accuse him of being a devil? Was there some connection between them that I was unaware of?As I sat on the bed, lost in thought, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of unease in my stomach. Hailee's behavior had been erratic lately, and it seemed like there was a lot she was keeping from me. I had been trying to be patient with her, but it was becoming increasingly difficult.I wondered if I should confront her about it, but I didn't want to scare her off. I knew I had to be careful and approach her in a way that wouldn't trigger her fear or anger. It was a delicate sit
SEBASTIAN'S POV. I was furious as I looked at the wounded warriors in my pack. The attack was devastating, and it left us all shaken. The rogues were becoming more audacious by the day, and it was time for us to take them seriously. But what confounded me the most was how they managed to get through our defenses. I had put measures in place to ensure that nothing of the sort ever happened, but it seemed that they had found a way around it.I had to get to the bottom of this. I immediately called for a meeting with all my warriors. I was going to find out what happened and hold those responsible accountable for their actions. As we sat down in the meeting room, I couldn't help but feel a seething rage building up inside of me.I began by demanding an explanation for how the rogues managed to get through our defenses. My warriors exchanged uneasy glances before one of them spoke up. He told me that they had underestimated the rogues and had not been vigilant enough. I couldn't believe
SEBASTIAN'S POV. I rushed down the stairs, my heart pounding in my chest, and the sight before me was nothing short of a battlefield. Two warriors, both from my pack, were locked in combat. Hailee lay on the floor, blood dripping from her forehead, and her glasses shattered on the ground. Without a second thought, my wolf took over, and I sprang into action. I couldn't bear to see her like this, hurt and defenseless.In a flash, I charged at the two warriors, growling as I went. They turned to face me, but it was too late. My wolf was too powerful, and they stood no chance. In seconds, they were both dead, and I scooped up Hailee's unconscious form, cradling her in my arms.I carried her back inside the house, my mind racing with a million thoughts. What had happened? Why was she here? What had caused this fight? As I lay her gently on the couch, I saw the broken glasses, and a cold rage filled me. Someone had hurt her, and I would find out who.I checked her over for any serious inj
DOLPH'S POV.I woke up early in the morning, as I always do, to start my day in the rogue pack. As I walked around my room, my eyes caught something that made my blood boil with anger. It was a picture of Sebastian and Hailee, taken while they were sleeping and one of my men had brought it to me a day or two ago which was given to him by a spy. They looked so peaceful, so content in each other's arms. And that's when the jealousy began to eat away at me.Hailee and I were supposed to be together. We had an unspoken understanding, a bond that I thought was unbreakable. But now, seeing her with Sebastian, I couldn't help but feel like she had betrayed me. The anger and jealousy within me were overpowering, and I couldn't shake them off.I looked at the picture again, studying their faces. I tried to imagine what they must have been feeling when the picture was taken. Did they know I would see it and feel so angry? Or were they just lost in their own world, oblivious to my existence?I f
HAILEE'S POV.As I lay in bed that night, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. I tossed and turned, trying to find a comfortable position, but nothing seemed to work. It was as if my body was trying to tell me that something was wrong in my pack.I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was, but the feeling was there, gnawing at me from the inside out. It was like a persistent itch that I couldn't scratch, a nagging sense of unease that wouldn't go away.I tried to distract myself by thinking about other things, but my mind kept coming back to the feeling of wrongness. It was like a shadow that loomed over me, threatening to consume me at any moment.I wondered if it was just my imagination, or if there was really something going on in the pack. Maybe it was just my own anxieties and insecurities, playing tricks on me. But deep down, I knew that it was more than that.There was a tension in the air, a sense of foreboding that I couldn't ignore. It was like the calm be
HAILEE's POV As I stood before Dolph, my anger bubbling inside me like a raging inferno, I knew that I had to set things straight. I could not allow him to continue believing that I had betrayed him, that I had somehow sided with the enemy. So I looked him straight in the eye, my voice cold and measured. "You are a fool, Dolph. A complete and utter fool. How could you even consider the possibility that I would betray our pack, our family? How could you be so blind?" Dolph flinched at my words, his face contorting with anger and frustration. But I did not back down. I stood there, my gaze locked with his, refusing to be intimidated by his fury. "It was all a lie," I continued, my voice growing stronger. "A fabrication designed to sow discord and confusion among our people. And you fell for it, hook, line, and sinker." Dolph opened his mouth to protest, but I cut him off with a sharp gesture. "Enough. You will be put in the cells, Dolph. Until you can prove your loyalty to our pack,
CLARA'S POV.As I left my pack behind, my heart felt heavy with the weight of betrayal. I couldn't believe that Dolph, the one I trusted with everything, had accused me of being a traitor. I cried silently as I walked, trying to keep myself together. My mind was in turmoil, and I didn't know what to do next.Eventually, I pulled myself together and continued my journey to Sebastian's pack. As I walked, my thoughts wandered to my relationship with him. I knew he would be waiting for me, and I couldn't bear to disappoint him. Sebastian was my safe haven, my anchor in the storm. I had to keep it together for his sake.When I finally arrived at the pack, I saw Sebastian pacing back and forth, his eyes scanning the horizon. As soon as he saw me, he rushed over and hugged me tightly.Sebastian's eyes were like daggers as they bore into me, and I couldn't help but feel a shiver of fear run down my spine. The suspicion in his gaze was palpable, and it was clear that he didn't fully believe th
