Perre's POV
Us werewolves were complex beings when it came to the matters of our hearts. Never would you encounter another creature as passionate and loyal as our kind. The goddess of the moon already wrote our love stories before we're even born. Our soulmates are predestined by the goddess herself. The concept of being mated was sacred to every single werewolf in this world.
And yet this good-for-nothing son of a bitch destroyed the reputation of our kind. Not only did he abandon his mate, he literally caused her doom. To be deceived was one thing but to be betrayed by the very person you loved and cherished was far greater. It would leave a lasting wound that's probably never gonna heal. The pain must be tenfold.
"Who is he?" I asked while trying to control the urge to release my rage. I felt that
Shey’s POV The endless darkness was over. My eyelids flickered to the glimmer of light that awakened my senses. Slowly, I opened my eyes. I was welcomed with an unfamiliar sight. The interior of the room was very far from what I remembered my room was like. I scanned the place in hopes of finding a hint of familiarity to the place. But I failed. The woods incorporated into the walls gave a sensible warmth to the place. The design of the room focussed on smaller intimate patterns while introducing rich, sensuous textures because of the neutrality of its colors. Adding to the layer of soft elements, it gave me a welcoming feel. I didn’t feel any sign of threats though the surrounding was a complete stranger to me.
Pierre's POV"I call to order the official meeting of the board of leaders of the Legion of the North."Everyone was alerted. As the quarterly assembly had officially started with my opening remarks, every single soul inside the boardroom paid attention to me."A timely letter of notice was received by all the members of the board and is to be filed with the minutes of this meeting. Lane, do we have a quorum?" I asked my secretary.She motioned herself towards me and handed me a folder containing the details about today's agenda. I observed that everyone already had theirs before I even arrived here. As I read through the details on what was inside, my secretary was reciting the names of the board member
Shey's POV"Are you sure you want the Legion present in that very important event?"An immense level of concern could be heard from Uncle Stan's voice. More lines could be seen in his already wrinkled forehead.As my father's right-hand man, he had all the rights to worry. Earlier today, we had received an intel from one of our organizers that the Legion of the North was pressuring the owner ofthevenue togatecrashthe event. Of course, Uncle Stan was not happy about it."Let them be, Uncle Stan," I said confidently, as I put down the pile of folders I was busy with.I posed a confident grin trying to reassure my
Pierre's POVYou are invited to attendA Black Tie EventInduction Ceremony for the new leaders of the Scarlet UnionMay 17, 2021 | 7 PMThe Lunar Shrine Hotel and CasinoAs I carefully read the details on the black tie invitation which Alpha Lexington had secured for me and my Beta Jaxon Smith, I was overcome with anticipation.As this was a fancy event, I made sure to be at my best. For this occasion, I chose to wear a black tie dinner jacket with satin lapels and shawl collar. As for the black tie itself, I selected something that was proportionate to my head. Finally, I finished the l
Shey's POV Tonight was the moment of truth. Some said a female werewolf can only achieve great things through her man. I was born to a society where a woman was only expected to be a wife and a mother. That they were nothing but a homemaker, a supporter and an unrecognized shadow behind every wolf. This evening, I would prove them wrong. I looked at myself at the mirror. For the succession ceremony, I chose to wear something bold. Something that would echo strength and independence. A color that would shout prominence and wit. In the sea of black and white, I chose to wear red. Red as dawn, my floor-length gown had an asymmetric neckline. The high-slit design revealed the nakedness of my right leg yet the flowy, silken garment put an elegant contrast to it. I finished my looks with a pair of black, platform shoes and a golden threader earrings. As for my crowning glory, I decided to curl it a little for so
Shey's POV My head ache like hell. I am feeling a bit under the weather the moment I opened my eyes. I only drank a single glass of red wine last night and hurried home after the formal accession ceremony was over yet I feel like my whole body had been ran over by a monster truck. This must have been because of stress, jitters and fatigue from the recent event. It was crazy! I tried to communicate with Kaya inside my head but she was ignoring me. The profound sadness and despair was all over her. Perhaps that was the reason I was feeling sick today. Kaya's depression was manifesting on my body. The clock sitting at the top of my bedside table hit quarter after nine. Realizing it was almost 10 o'clock in the morning, I forced myself to get out of bed. I let the morning air inside my room by opening the windowpane. The sunlight that came inside had a hint of sudden warmth. The morning sunshine erased all the sleepiness that was left inside of
Jaxon'sPOVIt was a very quiet Saturday evening at our house. The night sky was clear and full of twinkling stars. Cold breeze was circulating inside our home so my wife decided to lift down the small windowpane we had at our dining room for warmth. Afterwards, she began fixing the table and serve dinner.Tonight was nothing special yetLysa, as always, cooked a feast. I could smell thesmokinessof the fall-off-the-bone barbeque ribs paired with rich and creamy macaroni and cheese. The warm, yellow hue of the mac and cheese and the dark, red tone of the ribs complemented each other. Tonight's meal certainly made a picture-perfect plate. This was one of the many reasons why I had fallen head over heals with my wife. She was a fantastic cook who su
Pierre'sPOVWhat could be a better way to forget the matters of the heartthanburying yourself in mountains of paperwork?This had been my routine for the last few days after witnessing what could have been the best night of my life. In a normal circumstance, I might have been in bed, lying next to my loving mate while discussing our plans for our future. However, the goddess of the moon had other intent. Instead, Iam stuckhere in my office disconnecting myself from the world while trying to figure out how I could get the hell out of the situation I am in.On how I would be able to accept that my long-awaited mate was the very person I should destroy.

Pierre's POV"Alpha Pierre.."A mild tap on the shoulder woke me up. When I opened my eyes,Jaxon'sface was the first thing I saw. I scanned the place and realized I was already in bed and covered with bandages. I wasn't sure how I got to my room. The last thing I remembered was me lying on the couch. Shane and the rest might have carried me here.I tried to lift my body from bed but when I do, unpleasant bodily sensation struck me. It was like hitting the button to activate pain all over my body. Discomfort overpowered me so I decided to keep laying down."Easy, Alpha."Jaxonimmediately tended to my needs. I gestured my hand signalling him that I was fine. When he thought I was already settled, he uttered "If you want, I'll ask Mr. Col
Pierre's POV I didn't know where I went wrong. All I wanted was to haveSheyexperience the beauty ofCrustwickMountain. Rather, a furious wolf I used to call mate a while ago attacked me. "Shey.." All I could do was to call her name hoping that the sound of it would remind her of whom she was. I looked into her eyes desperately searching for the woman I once knew. But instead, Iwas facedby a monster I never knew existed inside her. "Shey.. It's me. This is Pierre. I am your mate." As if mylastmessage even
Pierre's POV"Are you sure you want to do this, alpha?"Like a parent anxious for his child's first camping trip in the woods,Jaxonwas fussing over about this since last night. He kept on telling me that this decision was stupid especially after knowing about what had happened last time.Me,Jaxon,Lysaand Shane were outside the pack house. They were helping meloadsome stuff at the back of the car. Shane was inspecting the vehicle making sure it would not give me any problem later. Though my Delta was not saying a word, it wasevidentthat he was echoing the same statement as
Shey'sPOV"It's niceto beback in business, baby!"Janice was a picture of excitement and glee. She carefully opened the bag of food she ordered for lunch while I am staring at her in awe. Seconds later, a bowl of lasagna soup paired with her favorite bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich were sitting on top of her table. With a huge grin on her face, she took her first bite and admired the food like a 5 year-old child.I shook my head while observing her strange behavior. For me to see Janice loosen up a little was not something I got to seeon a regular basis. As much as I wanted to celebrate with her, my conscience was not letting me.She was happy b
Pierre's POVMy eyes twitched as the warm sunlight hit them. I raised my right arm for cover and slowly opened my eyelids under its shade. I was greeted with an unfamiliar surroundings which made me got up from where I was lying hurriedly. As a result, I felt a sting of pain on my head which made me uttered a soft moan."Woah! Take it easy, lad. You just got out from having a fever" I heard someone spoke. That was when I noticed a middle-aged man sitting at the couch beside me. He was holding a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee."Where am I?" Obviously, these were the first set words I would say. I strolled my eyes to the unknown environment, trying my hardest to remember how I got here in the first place.I was lying in a grey-colored sofa in crisp, white living room. The glass and the metallic features sharpens the white pieces revealing an elegant, pristine and timeless features in it. The only source of colorful
Shey'sPOV Shit, what was I thinking? Icouldn't care lesson what this man was dreaming about. If not out of compassion, I wouldn't bring him to my house to nurse. It's just so happen that I didn't know anyone of his friends or relatives. My conscience would kill me if I had left him unattended in the cold ground. That's it, nothing more. "Yeah, right." My wolf Kaya emerged from my mind once more. She was beaming from ear to ear like a kid who just had his favorite treat. I wanted so bad to wipe her grin off her face. This made her laugh even more since she was able to read my thoughts. Oops, I completely forgot about that part. She was my wolf and basically living at the back of my head. Stupid me. "You do
Shey'sPOV"Don't tell me youhad waitedhere since two o'clock. Are you stupid?"Iwas answeredwith a faint smile. I looked at Pierre's current state. He was clenching his arms in his chest, his first defense on the piercing coldness of the night. He was wearing casual white polo shirt and a pair of jeans. Since he had arrived earlier in the afternoon, he wasn't wearing any sweater. As a result, his whole body was shivering and almost numb."You-you promised me you'll come so I need to stick to my words and wait for you."Guilt overcame my senses. Never did I imagine he would wait this long. While I'm at home soaking my body into a relaxing bubble bath, here he was sitting at
