Jace's POV

I quickly shifted into my human form and began looking around.

"Lillian!" I called out in a cracked voice as I walked further at the edge, with labored breath.

She couldn't swim, that I knew because I overheard her talk to an elderly woman about one of her fears. Back then, I thought it was something foolish and weak a she-wolf would say, but now I was terrified by that thought.

"Lillian, please answer me! If you do, I swear to the moon goddess I won't harm you in any way. I just want to see that you are safe, please," I begged, then tensed when her scent reached my nose.

I quickly rushed ahead and saw her body lying near the edge where a huge cut tree had fallen a few days ago. Half of her body was resting in the water while the other half was resting on the side of the tree.

"No," I whispered and ran ahead, instantly jumping into the river and grabbing her body, pulling it into my arms.

I was sniffing and trying to hold back my tears while I swam back to land. Once she wa

    Harvey's POVDoomed.We were all doomed!I looked at the Alpha who was lying unconscious in one of our guest rooms then sighed sadly."Beta, what do we do with that Omega's dead body?" Light asked softly behind me.I turned and faced him seriously."We all witnessed a few hours ago how he walked into the pack house. Although he was dripping wet, he was badly crying and just by his pheromones, no one could approach him. He was emitting a death threat. So what do you think would happen if we touched his mate's body?" I asked bitterly.This was the first time I referred to that Omega as his mate because the actions he had portrayed were those of a male in love who had greatly suffered from loss and heartache.I was feeling devastated and very scared for our lives. We were his childhood friends, but at the same time, we were also the very ones who had taken away his mate. Although he acted like that towards her, it was so clear to us now that he was bonded to her."But she's dead," he whi

    Paul's POVWe rushed into the guest bedroom quickly.The healer was already at the Alpha's side, taking care of him.After she had gone to see Lillian's dead body, she bowed down and apologized because there was nothing she could do to resurrect her.I knew it wasn't going to take long before the body would begin to smell and rot, so I asked her to please do something about it, which she agreed to.She went out and came back with a large box.She asked me to step out, which I complied.I went to my room and found the door open. I knew who it was before I could even walk in.Light was sitting on my bed, reluctantly going through my diary.I quickly moved to grab it when he stood up at a quick pace and grabbed a handful of pages."Stop!" I exclaimed, but he ignored me and ripped them apart.There and then, my wolf took over in anger. Light laughed loudly, surprising him as he threw the diary on the ground."You call yourself a Gamma, don't you, sir?" He asked as my wolf growled low."Yo

    Jace's POV"I am here," I whispered softly to Lillian as I slowly sat at the edge of the bed, looking at her with a smile."I want to apologize from the bottom of my heart for taking time to come here. For some reason, I passed out. I'm assuming it's due to exhaustion," I said softly, then raised my hand to touch her cheek when I stopped myself halfway."Oh, you don't like to be touched, do you?" I asked, then frowned deeply when I felt a slight headache.I groaned and then touched my forehead with a heavy sigh.No matter how I was feeling, I wasn't going to leave her side. She needed me as much as I needed her.A knock that came through forced me to get to my feet and walk to the door, opening it.An elderly omega had a tray of food in her hands, and she was slightly trembling with her gaze lowered to the ground."Alpha, the Beta asked me to serve you food and to prepare a bath for you," she said, making me growl.She quickly took a few steps back and went down on her knees."That re

    Flora's POVI felt powerless as I looked at the corpse in front of us. We all could tell that the she-wolf was already dead. How could we relay such words to our Alpha and still keep our necks intact?"Elder," Brenda called in a cracked voice, snapping me out of my thoughts."Yes, dear," I answered in a husky voice, then cleared my throat."How are we supposed to clean a dead body? I'm so scared because I have never done it before," she asked as I glared at her.Did she want to die? What if the Alpha was close by? Hearing her words would make him act up in just a second."If you value your damn life, you will shut your mouth and work. By the way, watch your mouth," I said loudly and then looked at Sylvia, who was looking at the body intensely."Sylvia," I called softly.She looked at me and then patted her chest a few times."Elder, I know I shouldn't say this, but I'm uncomfortable. Lillian is way gone and there is nothing our Alpha can do about it. I heard from a few warriors that t

    Talic's POVI stood in the Alpha's office, looking at him speechless.He was going through his files with a smile plastered on his face, without paying attention to me or even looking my way.I had already talked to the warriors and told them what was going on, as well as a few pack members so they could show discretion.As for Leah, she was banned from seeing him. It was a command and order I had given her, and I was sure she was going to heed it. As it was, the Alpha wouldn't waste any time in killing her if she said something to anger him."Alpha," I called softly.When a minute went by, I frowned deeply.I couldn't understand why Ridge wasn't taking over and pushing his human into their subconscious. I understood that the pain was too much to handle, but we still needed him to govern us."Sir," I called softly.Whenever I did that, Ridge took over without hesitation."How is Lillian?" came a response, and then he looked up to meet my eyes.It was still Alpha Jace, and that made me

    Talic's POVThree days of traveling without much rest and needed food were finally taking a toll on me. I felt exhausted, and my head was badly aching.After Flora's instructions and badly drawn directions, I took it upon myself to search for that witch. Although I was in the said territory she was in, I couldn't sense her presence nor notice any wild animals near me. Something felt off, and that made me feel a little nervous.I opened the door to my car and slowly got out, taking a few steps ahead.When I stood still, I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply. When I opened my eyes, I sighed softly. It was of no use; I still couldn't pick up any supernatural being's scent.I was about to turn and get back to my car when I heard light humming coming from behind the bushes, a little further away from where I was.I carefully began moving towards the bushes as the female's voice became clear.I touched the bushes and I was about to part them when she spoke."Whoever you are, go back.

    Edith's POVIt was getting hard to keep my temper in check, and I could feel anger and a need to brutally kill the one in front of me.Just before he could hear me hum, I knew what he was and what he meant to me.No matter what, I couldn't believe it. I was in denial. Was cursing the moon goddess and spitting on her name not enough that she had to link me to another bastard?I couldn't understand why she would do this to me after knowing how I never wanted to be linked to another male.Most supernatural beings knew about the myths, but none of them knew the whole truth about my life. All they assumed was that I was a crazy, thirsty bitch who loved black magic to the point of killing everything I held dear.None of them knew how broken and hurtful those myths were to me."Edith," the Beta called in a labored voice, and I found myself instantly calming down."I'm really sorry for touching you without your permission. But was it a little too much treating your mate in such a harsh way, d

    Talic's POVI quickly stood up when she rose from her seat with a very angry expression on her face."Get out," she whispered."What? Why?" I asked in disbelief.Why was she suddenly saying that after hearing the story?"You, your leader, and those other warriors are scum of the earth. I'm so happy that your Alpha will lose his mind. If it were up to me, I would want him dead because you are all so disgusting!" She spat.I found myself moving in a split second and grabbing her by the neck in anger.I understood how messed up my human and the others were. But no one had the right to say such harsh words about my Alpha, mate or not.I frowned in shock when a force pulled my hands from her neck. I was about to push them forward when I felt weak, and my knees gave out. I fell to the ground, only to experience a sharp stabbing pain in my head that made me scream out."Stop," I pleaded while I moved my hands to my forehead."You are quite the stupid type, aren't you?"

    Jace's POVI had never cried so much in my life, but it seemed whenever it came to her, I couldn't control myself.Seeing her smile happily and wholeheartedly talk to me over something made me break down. It also made Ridge very happy. I was certain she didn't do it consciously, but either way, it made us so happy."Thank you," I said again as I took the slice from her hand and began eating.Pizza wasn't something I enjoyed eating, but it was something that I usually talked about because my late mother loved it."If it's okay with you, would it be okay if we went together to get pizza. Not today but any day?" I asked.She sat down next to me and then looked at Flora, who quickly nodded."O..Kay," she answered in a low tone."Thank you," I mouthed the words to Flora who smiled and tilted her head to the side to show respect."Um.. please excuse me. Seeing how the Luna is eating, I'll have to take back this tray of breakfast to the kitchen," she said."No, Flora, leave it just like that

    Lillian's POVI couldn't sleep much last night after the incident, and I didn't want Flora to know because she would be worried."I hate how you acted. We are not weak like before. We could have slit her throat, and that asshole of a mate wouldn't have stopped us," Maila said seriously.Why didn't she understand that Leah was part of our little trauma throughout the years? For us to get over it, it was going to take some time. Moreover, seeing the Alpha hit her brought back unwanted memories. In that moment, my body couldn't move in fear, and I saw myself in Leah's place.When he spoke to me, I couldn't stop the words that came out of my mouth. I kicked him out of his own room."This pack is also ours. We are the rightful Luna," Maila growled, displeased by my thoughts."Maila...," I called silently."Why don't you let me take over? I fear no one, and I am capable of protecting us from anyone.You won't experience such sad and hurtful moments when you allow me to be in charge," she sai

    Jace's POVI couldn't stop smiling as she ate. Although I knew she was uncomfortable, I didn't want to leave. Whenever I looked elsewhere and back at her, I found her smiling too at the food or at Flora, but once she noticed my gaze, her smile faded."Would you like me to order some pizza tomorrow?" I asked.Seeing how she was enjoying her food, she would love to eat pizza. That's what was going through my mind."I don't think I could like it, so it's fine," she answered as I frowned.She was speaking as if she had never tasted it."That's because she hasn't," Ridge responded coldly."Oh, I see," I said, then stood up and walked to the balcony.It was late, and soon everyone would be indoors resting. Only a few warriors would stay awake patrolling."The sky is surely beautiful today," I whispered softly then raised my hand to the sky calmly and closed my eyes, enjoying the breeze."I want to sleep next to her," I spoke to Ridge silently."Don't even think about it," came his warning.

    Lillian's POV"Hey, what's wrong?" Flora asked softly.I looked at her and then smiled sadly."Nothing is wrong," I answered and then looked at the door nervously.A few hours had gone by since Flora came into my room looking very happy.She embraced me while telling me how thankful she was to be chosen to serve me in the pack house. At first, I wanted to tell her how it was the Alpha's decision, but stopped when I thought of her leaving and refusing to stay in fear.I didn't know what he was planning on doing or what he wanted from me, but I'm sure it wasn't that good since there was never a day he was kind to me. That's why I needed Flora on my side, that way if something bad was to happen, I would run to her side."Flora," I called as I stood in fear with a rapidly beating heart. I could smell the scent of Jace getting stronger and light footsteps approaching my room."Don't worry, I'll talk to him," she answered and then walked to the door and opened it."Thank you," I whispered s

    Edith's POV"Edith, stop!" A loud growl snapped me out of my trance.I looked at the floor and noticed Harvey, who had passed out there, then gasped loudly as I raised my gaze to look at Jace, who was standing protectively in front of him."I... Alpha... I...,""Save it," he said furiously, cutting me off, and then turned and went down on one knee, placing his hand on Harvey's neck.I quickly moved too and knelt down next to him in fear and with a rapidly beating heart."He's alive, luckily," he whispered as I sighed in relief.I was about to press my hand on Harvey's chest when he lightly hit it."Don't. You have done enough as it is," he warned coldly."I'm so sorry, Alpha. I lost control for a second and got into a trance where I couldn't pull out easily," I answered sadly."Did you seriously not hear his pained whimpers?" He asked as I shook my head."I swear on any god I didn't. I didn't even want to hurt him intentionally. I just lost it when he said something insensitive about

    Edith's POVThe past few weeks had gone by, and Talic was nowhere to be seen. I understood that he was very busy with the pack, but wasn't it normal to want to spend the last few days with me, his mate?I walked to the window and opened it, looking down at the pack members who were going back and forth. Some were chatting, while others were playfully having fun.I was about to step back from the window when a group of warriors caught my attention. They were standing in front of Talic as they spoke to him seriously. His back was towards me, yet he still looked very good.I leaned against the window with a smile, admiring his height and build. He was just so damn sexy without even trying hard."My mate is one sexy bastard," I said to myself playfully, then chuckled softly.When the warriors stopped talking and looked at me, my heart picked up. In just a second, Talic turned to look at me with a raised brow.I quickly turned back to avoid his gaze and knelt down with labored breath."Oh

    Jace's POVI was woken up by beautiful soft humming. A wet cloth was covering my forehead, and the amazing scent of my mate filled the room. The tingles that were spreading throughout my entire body made the pain I had experienced disappear.I looked to my side and smiled when I saw her looking at the book on her lap while humming. Her hand was holding mine, and that made my heart pick up. She was sitting on a chair with her hair covering her beautiful face. Something about her made me feel at peace and at ease. Sadly, I couldn't bring myself to let her know that I was awake.I had a feeling if I did, she would instantly act up, either by getting angry with me or distancing herself from me.I was truly a coward who didn't want to leave her side. The moment she ordered me to drink wolfsbane, I was terrified. Not because of death, but because of letting her go. If I was to die, I would leave her alone for another man or be forgotten, which I didn't want. I wanted to die for her but n

    Maila's POV"Lillian," he called as I glared at him."Do you think that will make us happy? Your little act of defending us? And I am not Lillian! You don't even know my name, do you?" I asked coldly.He looked at me apologetically and then shook his head."I figured, like how could you even attempt to know my name when you don't want us," I said as he quickly moved and grabbed my hands.Instantly, I felt calmer."That's not true," he answered loudly."I know what you are trying to do, Alpha, but it won't work," I said angrily."What is your name?" He asked softly."Is this a joke? Why are you asking me right now? Is it because of what I said?" I asked back and then swallowed hard.It was taking everything in me not to smile at him and just tell him."Look, I know I messed up big time. But I swear it's the truth that I want both of you. Me and Ridge are willing to do anything to make you happy," he answered.Before I could respond, he moved my hand and pressed it against his chest."I

    Maila's POVHaving power felt so unreal to us. It also felt good and almost addictive having everyone look at us differently and with a hint of fear."I'm glad you are accepting what we are capable of doing," I said to Lillian and then threw myself on the bed as memories of our mate began invading our mind.I wanted to know if he was back on his feet or not. A tiny part of me badly wanted to check up on him."You are worried," Lillian whispered as I groaned softly and then sat upright."I am not," I lied, then got to my feet and walked to the door, stepping out of the room.What we needed was a walk to take our minds off things again.Although things were different, it still felt nice to just walk around nature. I was about to go downstairs when I heard Jace's voice coming from downstairs.I looked ahead and saw him talking to Talic. He looked very concerned."Don't let her go," he told Talic as he frowned deeply."I wish I could do more, Alpha, but I feel like her decision is already
