Sally's POV

"One of the maids," I say.

Her once warm eyes blinked into harsh ones. "What is her name?"

"Uhm..." I never bothered to know who worked under my grandparents, although I only remember the people who worked here longer than anyone else. He kept offering to make me tea. "Janet."

The aforementioned person, Janet, seems to act like my other grandmother, but she has this strange vibe around her. It may be too late to think about it now, but she is always in my business, she takes care of me more than my grandmother.

"Where is she now?" Grandma quickly asked.

I opened my mouth, not knowing anything. "In the kitchen?" I'm not sure where she is.

In a flash, the woman was up and rushing toward the kitchen with her husband and my grandmother Donne. I was still in the tea room with Grandpa Donne.

Two men entered the room a moment later, ran straight behind the old man, and sat on their folded legs. The room was quiet, but Grandpa was whispering something to mysterious men that I had

    Sally's POVAfter a few days of having my grandparents around, it felt like a breath of fresh air, now return home. I would have almost followed if the old man hadn't thrown his sharp eyes at me. For a while, I thought my Donne grandparents had called them, but no. My mother's grandparents came voluntarily. Grandma said. "Call it a grandmother's instinct."The moment my grandmother realized what was happening inside me, the lady made a special drink just for me called "Cleanse", I asked her why and she replied. "The purpose of this drink is to reboot your system. Reboot, they say. It cleans out your toxic blood, replacing it with fresh new blood. We are rejuvenating you."Initially, the drink tasted very bitter. Her words, not mine. So she made it not bitter and it tasted like unsweetened tea. But despite how it tasted, the pain I experienced after drinking her "Cleanse" tea felt as if someone had kicked me in the head, stabbed my body with a knife, broken my leg bones into pieces, an

    Sally's POV"Where's the tea?" I rummaged through the things in the kitchen as soon as I got home."What tea, Sally?" One of the maids spoke up.Throwing all the boxes, I was indignant: "Where is it?""What tea are you looking for?" Another person asked."What Janet usually does," I say.I didn't care how they looked at me because the next thing I knew, I was in my grandmother's arms, who looked worried."What's the matter, Sally?" She pushed my loose hair out of my face.I continued walking through the kitchen like a madman. "I need Janet's teas. I need them now. Please.""Aren't you two her roommates? Tell me, where did she keep the rest of the tea?" They backed away when I approached them."What happened?" My grandfather walked in next, stared at the commotion in the kitchen then looked at me, demanding answers.My breathing is unstable. "I'm looking for Janet's tea.""For what?" He asks.I stopped before I let go of all these overwhelming emotions and just burst into tears. "This

    Sally's POVI walked out and went to a cafe not far from my house to sit, eat cake, drink coffee, and try to escape some things by reading the novel I had borrowed not long ago. Not thinking about him and his other lips.Ever since I stopped drinking Janet's homemade chamomile tea, and my grandparents continued giving me "Cleanse" tea, I've been more deranged than usual, and it's made me very anxious. I couldn't concentrate, couldn't think properly, my emotions were all over the place, and most of all I kept feeling confused. About what, I'm not sure. But I'm still learning, step by step.Personally, I think, Janet's tea is a good thing to give me because it helps me forget things I don't want to remember. And apparently, it also suppressed my true feelings about everything and everyone around me. It keeps me in check.All of my housework and training have been eliminated for a week straight because I'm pretty sure my grandparents can see how I've been acting lately. Like I'm not myse

She blew me a flying kiss before leaving the cafe with the guys except Ryan, I blatantly brushed it off making the girl glare at me. It was my turn to smile innocently."Why are you still here?" I asked, a little annoyed.He ignored the indirect telling him to leave when he happened to sit in the empty chair right in front of me.I decided to not pay attention to him as much as possible, or maybe I could try to bother him."So, you will come with us tomorrow, right?" He said, sounding almost excited.I silently sighed. "Didn't you hear what I said? No."He tilted his head to the side, confused, why, who knows?"Why?" Why does he care? I thought, mentally rolling my eyes."I like spending time alone," Thoat caught his eye as I corrected him."Oh, come on. This will be our little trip." He tries to add enthusiasm to his speech.I smiled brightly. "Then go ahead and have fun." I caught that look of disappoint

    Sally's POVHe sat back down in front of me, lying on his stomach, head on his paws. What am I doing? I think. I should hate him, but lately, I feel like I can love everything about him, even the bad things.I looked at him sadly and sighed again. "I don't know what to do with you anymore. One second, you're nice, and the next second, you're meaner than an old lady. What are you doing? Why are you doing this? Why are you confusing me?" I whispered that last bit.He looked even sadder when I talked about it. What's going on with him? I wish I could have this kind of conversation with him in person, but every time I want to, I'm ready to punch him in the face or I leave first.My eyes slowly became drooping and tired. Lately, I've been restless and stressed, and I haven't been sleeping well at all. I'm not sure why, but maybe because everything that was going on around me, especially the tea, before and after the effect wasn't a great recovery journey. And apparently, I get easily irrit

My attention was redirected to the length of his arm, reaching me and onto my forehead. So he is someone with cold hands. It feels nice on my warm body."Your fever has subsided." Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, lowering his arms to his sides. I was a little disappointed when he let go, but whatever. "Thanks God." He smiled slightly.I turned my attention back to the soups, eating them until my heart was satisfied, repeating the words his mother had said earlier. I felt better when I ate the third bowl of soup, but after what happened just now, I was full."I'll go now, Ryan's dad needs me." Ryan's mother said. Even though she introduced herself and told me to call her Sica, I still found it difficult to use her name.I just nodded. My thoughts were still far away, unconsciously stirring the soup. But quickly I told her. "Thank."The woman smiled with cl

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.

"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.
