Cain~

I awoke to the gentle embrace of dawn, the first rays of sunlight weaving through the curtains of the room. As I sat up, a furrowed brow revealed the thoughts that occupied my mind.

I was mindful of the slumbering world around me, I glanced at Mandy beside me, her form peaceful in the morning light.

A momentary tenderness softened my features as I leaned down and gently pressed a kiss to her forehead. I whispered, "Hope you slept well.”

With a last gazed at her, I silently slipped away, leaving Mandy to the embrace of dreams.

I was about to have some free from the fridge in my room but was interrupted by the warrior who mindlinked me. “Alpha Cain, we have urgent news. Last night, there was an intruder attempting to break into the underground cells.”

I received the message and immediately left the beer and focused my attention on the matter at hand. I furrowed my brows and asked, “Did you catch the intruder? Can you describe him?”

He paused and said, “Unfortunately

    ~Mandy~As I vanished inside the forest, I quietly entered the pack gate. I saw the warriors were having discussions with each other. I walked past them secretly and cautiously crept into the room. The air was thick with a scent of secrecy as I approached the bed where Cain slept. A mischievous glint gleamed in my eyes as I slid under the covers.Cain stirred in his sleep, half-aware and asked, "What's…?” I quickly whispered, feigning ignorance, "Shh, go back to sleep.”I endured, I didn't disturb his rest, I nestled beside him, and I could feel the warmth of his breath. As the same approaches, Cain is already up and was about to get ready for his activity.He was about to get a drink from the fridge but was stopped by something. I quickly glanced at him and noticed he was replying to one of the warriors through the mind link.I think the news about my operation last night has reached him, he had his bath, dressed up and left for his office.Immediately he went out of the room, I had

    ~Cain~Lucas and I went to the underground cell where the warriors were gathered to address them on how to tighten the security.“After the recent incident, it's crucial that we fortify the security of this area. We cannot afford any more breaches.” I announced and they all nodded.The head warrior asked, “What measures do you suggest, Alpha Cain?” “Increase the number of guards stationed around the cell. We need extra eyes and ears, especially during the night.”“Install additional surveillance spells, and make sure the wards are at the strongest,” I added, and he asked again, “What about the entrances?”I moved closer to them and said firmly, “Seal any potential entry points. Strengthen the barriers. We can't underestimate the potential threats.”I continued to provide detailed instructions to the warriors, and when I was done, Lucas, the beta, also addressed them.After I was done with the meeting with the warriors, I left the underground cell and headed back to the pack. As I ent

    ~Mandy~The next day, I groggily opened my eyes, pulled the duvet away from my face, and yawned. I glanced at the person beside me and confusion swept over me. I gulped hard as I looked closely at the stranger.It was the guy from last night. The events from last night flooded back to my mind, I was drunk, and didn't know anything I was doing. I glanced at my below and felt timid there. I was ashamed and regretted coming to the bar house in the first place. I cautiously moved out of the bed, grabbed my stuff, wore my clothes and tiptoed towards the door, making sure I didn't wake him up.I opened the door and exited the room. I walked out of the bar house and went straight to the car park. I entered the car and started the engine. I heaved a sigh before starting my journey.I drove back to the pack house. I drove in and walked towards the door. I wished Cain Was still asleep. I muttered to myself, “where would I tell him I went to?”I bumped into an omega who was carrying a tray of p

    ~Mandy~“What's going on? You seem a bit frantic.” Cain entered the room, and approached me. I shook my head, and mittered, “Oh, nothing, Cain. Just misplaced something, no big deal.” he raised his eyebrows, and nodded.He walked to the wardrobe and went to grab his gym clothes. He mumbled softly, If you need help finding something, let me know. I'll be in the gym.” I forced a smile, as I watched Cain left the room.I resumed searching for the tracker, but I couldn't still find it. I opened and closed the drawers, but there was still no sight of this device. I clenched my fists and bit my lower lips. Hours passed and my desperation grew more as the weight of my actions bore down on me. I finally gave up on the search, I sank into the bed as I tried to steady my racing thoughts. Cain entered the room, I think he forgot something.He sensed my worthiness, and asked, “Still can't find it?”I forced a smile and said in a casual tone, “ It's Nothing important, Cain. Just a misplaced item.”

    ~Cain~I left the pack house and went to the gym. I needed to get myself together, I don't know why Mandy is also acting somehow these days. She seemed frustrated and annoyed but she decided not to share the problem with me.I started my morning workout and began with the treadmill when Samantha’s picture greased my mind. I couldn't get her off my head. Since the day I rejected her, my wolf has been angry and pained, he has even refused to talk to me.I blamed myself for rejecting our mate but she's an omega, and she's weak. She's not fit for my luna. Lucas entered the gym and swirled me out of my thoughts. He asked, “Is everything alright?” I sighed and got off the treadmill. I walked closer to him and said, “Her picture keeps greasing my mind. I don’t think I can ever get her off my mind.”“Samantha?” he asked and I nodded. “Yeah, I can't shake the feeling that I messed up big time.” He patted my back and muttered, “You rejected her, Cain. It's not an easy thing to forget. Mate bond

    ~Adrian~ I sat at my office expecting Investor James Tucker. I sent him an email earlier today about investing in my company and he replied and showed his interest. We organized a meeting today and I told him to come to his company but he insisted he would come to mine. At 11:23 am, I didn't see him and he fixed the meeting to 10 am in the morning. I stepped out of my office to stretch my legs. I waited for the elevator and the elevator swung open. I watched as James Turker, the investor, was very close to Samantha. “I seriously love you Samantha and I promise to take care of you.” I cleared my throat, and he noticed I was there. He smiled and walked towards me and offered his hand to shake me, “Hi, Adrian.” I shot him a deadly glare and refused his handshake. Samantha walked out of the elevator and stood at my back. I glanced at her and said, “We'll talk about this later,” James raised his hand and mumbled, “Actually, we were just having a friendly conversation.” I nodded and

    ~Samantha~He gripped my neck and growled and was about to slap me hard on the cheek but he withdrew his hands. He left my neck and paced back and forth to the office. He shot me a bad glare and smirked. He glared at me, his eyes not leaving mine and he said, “You have no idea what you're about to do, darling. It's either me or no one.” He took one last look at me and left the office. I sighed and went over to my desk and had a seat. “What does he mean by that?” I whispered. Fear gripped me and I placed my face in my palm thinking about what to do. He's a possessive and powerful billionaire. I know he is capable of doing many things and wouldn't be arrested by the cop. I was so lost in thought that I didn't know when the human relations manager came in. She called me out of my thoughts and dropped some files for correction. She left and my phone buzzed. It was a message from the strange number that called me when I was at home. That was James Turker.I picked up the phone and unlock

    Samantha~I woke up the next morning and groaned, “Ugh, my head…” The morning sun painted the room through the curtains. My eyes squinted against the intrusive sunlight and I had a dull ache in my head. I suddenly remembered the events from last night, how I drank away my sorrow with a stranger. The worst thing I have ever done in my entire life.I looked beside me and saw Adrian already awake. He muttered, “Morning, sleepy head.” I smiled weakly and said, “Morning. What happened last night?” He stood up and said, “You came home a bit… unsteady. I took care of you.” My eyes widened as I thought of how I would have messed up the whole place. “Babe, about that guy at the bar…” he interrupted me and cupped my face in his hands. He said, “We can talk about it, but first, let's get you some water and breakfast.” He rushed out of the room and went to the kitchen downstairs. After some minutes, he came back with a tray in his hand. “Here, drink this. It should help with the headache."He ga

    James I watched as Logan left the bar, sparing me a dead glance. My lips curled into a sinister smile, reached out for my phone and found one of my most trusted spies. “Listen carefully, I need you to acquire a sleeping injection immediately and head to this address without delay.” I provided the precise location of the hospital and cut the call. After some minutes, my phone hummed with an incoming call, “The job is done,” I took in a deep breath and had a sly smirk on my face. I can't wait to watch how Logan will feel about this. Then, I sent a message to Logan, “Enjoying the view?” Adding a laughing emoji which makes the message more annoying for him. I could feel the hands of the ladies beside me, caressing my chest and teasing my nipples. I felt like an electric rush of pleasure coursing through my veins. I surrendered myself totally to them, and a feeling of delight washed over me, kindling every nerve in my body. I wallowed in the feeling of their touch, each caress seem

    Logan I woke up early the next day to check up on Samantha in the hospital. Suddenly, my phone buzzed with a notification. I glanced at the screen and saw it was a message from James. “Meet me at the bar close to the company. I have an important job for you,” I furrowed my brows and clenched my fists in anger. I tossed the phone on the bed angrily and reached out for my car key. Then, the phone buzzed again and I quickly picked it up in anger. “It's now or never, my friend,” I heaved a deep sigh and decided to meet him at the bar before going to Samantha. And headed out of the house. I entered the car and made my way to the bar. After fifteen minutes, I reached the bar and I pushed the entrance door open. I stepped inside but I couldn't see him. I scanned the whole place and spotted him at the VIP table. I walked towards the VIP table. The atmosphere was different from the rest of the club. The music was soft, the lightening dimmer, and the air carried a faint scent of e

    *** Samantha My gaze followed Logan as he approached the door. I released a heavy sigh and after some minutes, the doorknob of the door opened and a nurse entered with a tray of medications in her hands. “Hi, Samantha, I’ve brought your medications for the day,” she smiled as she approached me. I nodded and she placed the tray beside my bed. She administered the medications and was left and I said urgently, “But before you go, I need to see Adrian. Can I?” She paused for a while and glanced at me. “I'm sorry but he's still resting, you can check on him later,” I rushed to her and held her hand, “Please, I need to see him. It's important.” “I haven't seem him since I got here, I just wanted to make sure he is okay,” I added, and she sighed. She was reluctant at first but she finally gave in to my request. She nodded and I followed her down the corridor. We stopped at the fourth room and she gently pushed the door open. I saw him lying on the bed motionless. The nurse proceed

    CainMy eyes widened as the warrior brought Mandy to the underground cell. I could sense her unease with the way she avoided my gaze. The warrior chained her hand and legs to the chair. I watched as she struggled to get out of the chains.I approached her slowly and I knelt down to her level, “Are you among them? Do you know him?” I pointed at the guy opposite her and she flinched. There was blood all over the guy’s body due to the torture he went through. She gazed at the floor and shook her head. “I… I don't know what you're talking about,” she stammered, and my jaw clenched as I glanced at her. My eyes narrowed as she tried to defend herself even in my presence. “You expect me to believe that?” I asked angrily and took a step away from her. I approached the nearby table and reached for the sharp blade. I have had enough of her pretending to love me. After I mated her and made her Luna, she still wanted to rule over my people.I signaled to the warrior at the door entrance, “Hold h

    MandyI left the pack house and headed to the rogue’s hideout. I've been working with them or let's just say helping them by giving them necessary information about when to strike and when not to.I took the car key and drove through the dense forests. I reached the path to their hideout and stepped out of the car. I walked toward the entrance and passed through the tiny passages. It was a cave. I saw the rogues and particularly, the rogue’s leader, “This is the time for us. Cain is weak at the moment, and he's distracted by the search for his mate.”“We will strike today after Damian has defeated him at the inter-pack activities,” I added and they all nodded. I drafted our plans and showed them how they would get to Cain.”“After Damian has defeated him at the inter-pack activities, we will make our move. The packs will be thrown into disorder, and we will seize control, once and for all,” the rogue’s leader, Tyler muttered.I went back to the pack house and watched as the inter-pack

    Cain The warriors gathered and as we were about to leave, the other Alpna from the pack joined us. We reached the pack territory and watched the rogues kill some of the pack members. We attacked the rogues and fought so hard against them. When the rogues saw how many we were, they retreated back to their hideouts. We ran after the routes but we were not able to catch up with them. The warriors and I tried to trace them but we couldn't. We caught a rogue who was battered and was injured during the fight. I watched as he staggered backward and breathed heavily. He tried to escape with the others but he couldn't. “Take him and lock him away in the underground cell,” I commanded and the warriors nodded. I watched as the warrior dragged the rogue in the car and headed towards the underground cell. I drove back to the park house and headed upstairs. I opened the door and entered the room. I walked toward the bathroom and opened the shower. I felt the warm water cascade down my bo

    Cain**Crystal moon pack**The D-day for the inter-pack activities“Alright, everyone! Listen up! Today marks the beginning of inter-pack sport activities here in Crystal Moon pack. We've been preparing for this for weeks, so let's make it count!” I addressed the pack members and shouted in joy.This is the moment they've been waiting for. I watched as they screamed and I muttered, “This is a chance for us to show our unity and strength as a pack. Let's give it our all!” “Yeah, let's show those other packs what we're made of!” Ryan, one of the warriors shouted. “I'm so excited for the relay race! I've been practicing every day,” Lucas, my beta said and I laughed. “I can't wait for the wrestling match. I heard Alpha Marcus from Silver Wolf pack is a tough opponent,” one of the pack members said. I moved closer to the podium and said, “Remember, we are not just competing for ourselves, but for the honor of several packs.”The pack members cheer as they disperse to their respective ar

    Samantha“Ouch, my head. Where am I?” I asked myself while trying to sit on the bed. I have been laid in bed for so long without opening my eyes. I don't even know how many days, weeks, or months I've been here. I couldn't open my eyes nor eat anything but I was just lying like I was dead.The only thing in hearing was my heartbeat and the beeping machines beside me. “Wait, where is Desmond? I haven't seen him? Is he okay?” These are the questions in my head right now. I slowly blinked and I felt my body was disoriented and sore. A gentle voice broke through the silence and I turned my head to see a doctor standing on my left hand side. He checked my vitals and pulse and said warmly, “Hey miss, welcome back,” I managed a weak smile and I wanted to say something but I felt my throat was dry. “Where am I?” I muttered, my voice was barely above a whisper.He smiled and replied, “You’re in the hospital. You've been here for a few weeks, but I assure you're going to be fine,” My eyes w

    JamesI leaned back in my seat and I instructed my driver to maintain a safe distance behind Adrian’s car. He later found out we were after him and he stepped on the accelerator and sped off. We also followed them and Adrian was about to be out of sight and the car lurched forward and tightened my seatbelt and took in a sharp breath.I gritted my teeth and I watched as the driver pushed the car to its limit and turned on the accelerator. My heart loaded in my chest as I watched Adrian’s car approaching a truck. He swerved the car to the side and tried to avoid the truck but instead, he ran into a bush beside the roadside and bumped into a tree.The car jolted to a halt after so much smoke and screeching of tires. I sat in stunned silence and stepped out of the car. I ordered one of the guards to check if they were still alive. He moved toward them and shook his head. I moved closer to check them and confirm it myself and I cursed under my breath when I heard the siren of the ambulan
