Sally's POV

She flipped her hair back again. "Come on. Don't play stupid. You're expecting a baby, right?"

This woman. I could feel thousands of needles poking into my scalp and neck, making me uncomfortable.

I was about to strike down this lunatic but stopped immediately when a menacing growl echoed from behind me. It succeeded in sending chills down my spine, causing the hair on my head to stand still.

Turning around, I saw Ryan with the rest of my friends and Athena's eyes looking at us. Ryan's purple eyes glowed angrily. But why? I felt hurt for some odd reason, I was just defending myself.

"Don't take another step." He threatened as he circled in front of her. "Once a whore, always a whore."

From the corner of my eye, I saw Athena step up, trying to protect me before I stopped her and signaled Albert to pull her back. However, I saw grimaces, hurt, and sympathy flash across the boys' faces.

I don't know why, but my chest tightened as those words left his mouth. Laughed bitterly,

    Sally's POVA week has passed and I didn't expect it to pass so quickly. Today will be a long and miserable day. How can I predict that? Oh, I don't have to predict anything, I just know. And the sky looked darker than before, even though it was raining outside. Sigh. I don't know if I can make it through the day."Hey," Athena cautiously approached me. "I know you're not celebrating your birthday, but do you want to go out, get your mind off everything?"I know she means well and has only the best for me, but I want to spend today alone."Thanks, but no," I remember last year, Athena did the same thing for me, taking me around town, but I was too miserable to enjoy the day. So I don't want the girl to feel more terrible than she already is."I'll finish this and go home."Athena nodded. "Text me, okay? Or call." She said and walked towards the restaurant.One of the things I love about Athena is that she knows when to step back and let me have some alone time, especially on days like

    Sally's POVI shook my head. "No", But I have read about them. They are ruthless soldiers tasked with protecting magical creatures like me. Some would call them our guardian angels. Both my grandparents and parents met them.Even though I have never crossed paths with them, even though the Goddess has destined me to be one of the guardian angels. Honestly, I am the most ungrateful son to ever walk on this earth.“Liar,” I heard Albert's voice in my head as he stared at me.I shot him a look before turning my attention to Simon who had just returned from somewhere, soaking wet. “What the hell happened to you?”"Sally left the campus, without any umbrella. She looked heartbroken," He reported."Where's Allen?" Linus looked around.Michael came up behind Simon. "He followed her, just to make sure she was okay."I can still feel the sharp pain in my chest. I secretly hoped that she was okay. "Allen, get back here, now," I commanded through our mental link."I will, once I'm sure she's hom

    Sally's POVAlbert stared at the person on the left, before shaking his head at me. "No, we are the ones who should apologize for coming to your house at the wrong time. Are you okay?"This is what people call a gentleman, and Athena is lucky. I gave a slight smile. "I'm OK."They saw what happened in the training area, but I won't let it become a constant reminder of this wonderful evening."Correct me if I'm wrong, but we met in front of the IT lab before, right?" The man sitting to Albert's right said. I think it's Linus, that's his name.I nodded. "Yes, long before I fainted and woke up at the herd house, and not as stuffy as this.""I agree." Linus smiled calmly."Oh, so you're the red-haired girl he was talking about," Jackson said happily.Simon's smirk went unnoticed as he sat to Allen's left. "Imagine our surprise when we found out that she was Ryan's partner.""How could Ryan describe her as a psychopath," Allen blurted. Instantly, everything and everyone in the room became

    Ryan's POV"Those are some killer moves she has achieved." Jackson and Simon were interested in what they had seen earlier at the Donne household.No wonder why people call them ruthless soldiers. Looking at her alone explains everything. Even though I've experienced it firsthand, I've never seen her fully fight with that intensity in her eyes."What do her family members do?" Allen asked out of curiosity."They are the oldest Donne family known as legends." I blurted it out.The boys stared at me as if I had grown another head. "As in human trafficking, dangerous drug production, a group full of criminals?" Jackson exaggerated.I shook my head. "No. They are a group of fearless assassins in the gangster world. Donne is immortal. Unfortunately, they existed about six years ago. Their fifth son and daughter-in-law died, originally The cause is still unknown to us, but my parents and grandparents attended the funeral."I stop. "I forgot who they were until Athena mentioned their names."

    Ryan's POVI don't know how I followed my accomplices to the Blue Crush club in the city, perhaps because Albert wanted to keep an eye on Athena, afraid she would attract other guys.“Remind me again, why are we here?” I spoke over loud music.Albert looked at the crowd. “To watch over Athena.”Suddenly, his face frowned. "I think you should watch her too." He nodded toward the middle of the dance floor.Sally was dancing with some random guy, and my blood boiled when I saw another man making a move on her, and she didn't even care.I pushed my way through the crowd and glared at the creature that was dancing with her before, taking up position and standing behind her. I admit she has the makings of a heartless assassin. And it secretly turns me on when I watch her rock her body with no faults, especially when she's wearing that red lace cocktail dress.Finally, she turned around, slightly startled before sighing. This girl stared at me for 5 minutes, probably deciding whether to insu

    Sally's POV“Are you sure you can drive?” Darius asked for the umpteenth time.I glared at him. “You know, I have a driver's license for a reason.”“Uh, sometimes people have a driver's license but are terrible drivers.”I gave him the dirtiest look I could muster. Is he saying I'm a bad driver without even experiencing it?Yes, I can drive, I just choose not to because I like being in nature in my town.I drove us to Ryan's pack territory, just like I remembered Jackson taking me here last time.Darius and I got out of the car and walked toward an acquaintance I saw standing not far from us. "Allen.""Hey, sister." The boy smiled at me but gave Darius an annoyed look.“Uhm… this is my friend, Darius. He is visiting from Germany.”Suddenly, Allen's once stiff posture became easier when he heard that name. “Did you say Darius – Alpha Darius Hunter?”Darius nodded with a gentle smile on his face. "Only one man.""Oh okay. Come here, I'll show you the way to the grill."I frowned in conf

    Ryan's POVI tried to apologize to her, but I don't know what happened to me that made me forget what I was saying.But amidst this gathering, the mixture of scents and baking, I can only focus on her.Her scent. Her eyes. Her nose. Her rosy lips.And I kissed her, with my lips. That's wrong, but it still feels right.—-----------------------Sally's POVA few weeks have passed since the barbecue. I honestly have to admit that I don't remember half the things that happened at the gathering because the only thing I remember is Darius and I arriving at the location, meeting Allen, fighting Ryan, bumping into Athena, and it's done.I don't even remember that I left Darius at the barbecue. I'm not sure who drove him home, but he returned just in time before my grandparents returned from France.I think I may have partial amnesia because God knows what happened to me on the way home or whether the amnesia happened in my own house. I'm really confused.Darius asked me why I left the gatheri

I can't believe I got out of my bed for this.Even though I know it's only 7 pm, I can't believe I left my comfortable space for this creature. I will kill Athena.He also frowned when he saw me. "Albert told me to meet him here. And what are you doing here?" He asked as if he were the owner of this cafe."Athena told me the same thing." I rolled my eyes. He had the nerve to narrow his eyes at me suspiciously. "I may be a lot of things, but I'm not a liar."I showed him the proof that Athena had texted, asking me to meet her at the Lupus cafe in town.Suddenly, a new notification arrived on both of our phones at the same time. The text has content. "I want you to sit at a table and communicate like human beings."I shook my head. "No way." I object.“Are you sure about that?” He said, but he had the same reaction as me.

    Sally's POVThree months after the devastation, to say things are back to normal is an understatement. Everyone is still saddened by the loss of half of the pack, but they are our heroes, in our hearts and our memories.I returned the next day, with my enemy's head in a sack. I asked everyone in my family if they knew what he had done and was about to do. When I asked about his parents, everyone bowed their heads in respect.Arnav informed me that both of them committed suicide because of the old Donne's rule.I need to abolish that regulation and replace it with a more reasonable penalty. They were both innocent, they were just pawns in the game and they had to pay for his actions, may their souls rest in peace.That night we held a proper funeral for them. We all paid our respects. Our allies also came to pay their respects.The ceremony was over, everyone had gone home and I stayed at the burial site and stared at Oliver's portrait, thinking that maybe I hated him just because he w

    Third person POVLook at Ryan carefully, his chest is moving slowly. Running to his side, Sally immediately cupped his face and called his name.“Ryan,” She started softly, and then gradually she lost patience. “Ryan.”The groan, surprised her, but sure enough, his eyes widened next. "I like hearing you say my name." His voice was hoarse.Unintentionally, she hit his chest before apologizing. "I'm sorry. Oh my God!"“Is that any way to welcome a mate who has just returned from the dead?” He was joking.Sally stared at him and said. "That's not funny at all."Sally didn't waste a second as she threw herself into his arms, crying into the crook of his neck, all the while inhaling his sweet musk. “Please don't do that again.”Ryan wrapped his arms around her waist, holding her tighter, never wanting to let her go again. “I love you too,” Her breath hitched and she buried her face deeper into his neck.After a moment, they let go and looked at each other, looking for more casualties to fi

    Third person POVReaching his lifeless side, she stepped back and knelt on both knees. Unaware, tears rolled down her ash-stained face.“Ryan,” She began softly, her eyes roaming around his body and finding the wound, blood pouring out endlessly. This cannot happen. He is a werewolf. An Alpha. He should have been cured by now. Unless the wound is caused by silver, pure silver.Sally sobbed endlessly. She felt everyone's eyes on her, rage filling her entire being. “Let's capture the rogues and find Oliver Donne. Now."Sally's orderly roar echoed throughout the area. Picturing a mental image of what the despicable man looked like only made me angrier. And as if they saw what was going on in my head, they barked orders at each other and ran away in different directions.“Please wake up. Ryan!" She shook her head. "I need you, so do everything you can and wake up."His body slowly went limp in her arms, making it a little difficult for her to bear him. “Ryan, no, wake up. Please."Sally s

And the first thing Sally said was. “Where is Ryan?”Everyone was dumbfounded.Her face stiffened at their sudden silence. “You're all here, but none of you know where he is.”Her voice lowered. “What happened to be able to link minds?”“We tried to contact him but he did not respond.”Sally frowned, suspicious. She looked around. “Can you guys link up?”It looked as if they were trying to communicate with each other through their minds, and they looked frustrated by it.“No,” Linus said.She is upset.“There is magic here, blocking all of the swarm's mental links to each other.”Sally looked at something behind Allen. “Is that my sword?”The boy nodded with a slight smile. “My mom said you'd be here, so…” He handed the weapon to Sally.“Thank you, Allen.

    Sally's POVMy whole life has been a lie. I can't even handle this right now. Slowly, lowering myself to the mat, I sat and stared at the flashbacks of my life before and after everything that had happened.I remember my grandmother always saying that I was royalty in their eyes, supposed to rule the world with Ryan's pack. And she continued to emphasize the two nouns, King and queen.Also, every summer vacation when I was young, my grandfather would show me off to his guests, which made me feel very uncomfortable. And it got to the point where I remember my mother having to take me for a walk every time someone passed by."And I know you saw something in your dream, Sally. You looked pale when you walked in here." She was silent for a while. "Is that your mate? Did he call you?"My silence is the answer. Even though I tried to deny the fear that the dream brought me, I couldn't, it still lingered in my mind. The image of Ryan covered in blood and pain, stuck.At least I have to know

    Sally's POVThought going to bed would be the best idea for me, but turns out, it was the worst idea. Because not long after I closed my eyes, my mind took me to a strangely familiar place."Sally, help." A whisper rang out around me.Standing in the middle of a barren field, 50 yards away from me, Ryan stood sullenly, his face pale, his right fist clutched tightly to his hip.I shivered as the cold wind whipped my skin but my eyes never left him. Is he okay? Why does he look so sick?When I looked closely at his deathly curled fists, they were covered in blood. Why? Whose blood is that? It can't be his, right? What happened?“Ryan,” I called, but no sound came out. I called again and again until I was tired and my throat became hoarse.He just stared at me with pain in his eyes.He may be standing but his eyes say otherwise. The light in his eyes was gone and I wondered if it was my fault.Looking closely at him, I felt like he was gone a long time ago and this was just an illusion.

    Sally's POVWhen the room became silent, the shadow moved quite quickly, as if trying not to be caught.“Do you want something to drink or something to eat?” I said, pretending to chat while Jill wrote something on paper.It writes. “There is a spy. You should be careful."I nodded in response. Then he replied through my makeup chat. “I'd love to, but I'm going to apologize and spend the week preparing for what's to come. You are invited to my coronation.”“You should be careful too.” I wrote again. He gave me a quick nod with a forced smile and left the room with his men.Kingsley turned around just as the young leader went out, quickly rushing to my left and whispering. “Something has changed here, Luna Sally.”“I know, I can feel it too.” I looked at him from a very close distance. “I need you to find someone, if he's not here that means he knows I came looking for him.”He left me in the office to plan while he went looking for the given name.

    Sally's POVWe arrived at headquarters three hours later, I had to match Kingsley's pace because he was such a weak bird. So as soon as my feet touched the ground, I rushed to find Arnav. "What's going on?"“The Alexander clan attacked us.”“Ub, I understand that part, but what exactly happened?”Arnav sighed first. “Goray Alexander was murdered, and the Alexander family suspects us of being the culprit.”I frowned at the news. “Why am I just hearing this now? Why did the Alexander clan suspect it was us? Do you have any other sources to find out who killed Mr. Goray?"From a maid in the house, I slipped off my coat. “Find me something, Arnav. We need to clear our names as soon as possible before something unspeakable happens.” I gave the order and went straight to my office.I was startled to see Kingsley behind me, I forgot that he was also with me. “Let's make you feel at home while I deal with all this.”He remained silent while panting from the flight and the energy he had to put

    Sally's POVOne time I left the room. I followed a beautiful floating white orb that led me to what felt like a 5-minute walk to an abandoned warehouse.I hesitated to enter the building, but the ball went straight through the wall. Sighing, I followed it through a small entrance.As soon as I stepped inside, a shrill scream echoed throughout the space of the warehouse. The screams of a man and a woman rang out again, sending chills down my spine.Approaching the noise, I hid behind pieces of plywood. My heart stopped beating for a split second when I saw my parents in the middle of the room.My mother was stripped of her clothes and every ounce of dignity, tears streaming down her pale and bloody face.I wanted to scream and help her, but I couldn't move and not even a whisper came out. I could only cry and suppress the anger welling up inside me.My dad, on the other hand, looked completely devastated. I held my breath as I watched him cry, pleading with the men around them who look
