Damon's POV: I looked at Bevin, then at Mika, angrily. "Start talking," I ordered, seriously. "Damon...." "Hush, Sherry," I warned, cutting her off. "Well, Alpha, as you know, I have been very grateful for your kindness and..." "Get to the point, damn it!" I growled loudly. "My name is Xiao, not Bevin, and I lied about a few things," he said in a cracked voice. He was scared and slightly trembling, as he should be. "And what are those things?" I asked. "Mika is my first mate, and that child is our own biological daughter. When my Alpha imprisoned my mate, I had to go against his command and rescue her. I left my pack, but that only angered him. He sent some warriors after us, and for a long time, they chased after us until we stumbled upon your pack," he answered. "You little lying piece of shit. You come clean now after all the chances our Alpha gave you!" Alec yelled. "He told me the truth," Sherry said, as I frowned in shock. "He did?" I asked in a low tone. "Yes, and
Damon's POV: I stood at the pack's border, looking at the alpha who was approaching us. He had a tall, huge man with him on his left side, who I could tell was a beta, and on his right was a slim, tall guy with a small scar on his chin, who was Gamma. Behind him was a she-wolf who had a cloak on, and her gaze was fixed to the ground. Something about her scent made me feel nauseated, but I chose not to show it. "Alpha Damon, I presume," the Alpha said when he stood in front of me and extended his hand. Unlike the Beta and the Gamma, his presence held some dominance, although he wasn't intimidating in any way. He was tall, just like his Beta, and his build was okay, but something about him ticked me off. He talked with pride and moved with it. He wasn't that bad-looking, but he was acting like he was the most handsome man out there. With each minute that passed by, he brushed his free hand through his hair while looking at Sherry, as if to lure her in. "Let's kill him," my wolf gro
Damon's POV: I walked into the pack house and went straight into the living room, where everyone's scent was coming from. Immediately, as I walked in, they all looked at me. Maggie and Alec had a weird expression on their faces, and the woman who stood behind them had her back towards me, while Sherry was looking at everyone with a blank expression. "What? I just waited for half an hour to see if that bastard was going to follow me or not. I'm sorry I took a long time," I said. "It's not like that, Damon. She... um, this woman, I think she was badly abused. She has a lot of scars, marks, and bruises on her arms and legs. She also has a dark eye on her left side that shows that someone must have hit her a few hours ago, and the side of her lip is busted," Sherry answered softly. "Well, Alec, take her to the pack clinic," I ordered seriously. "That's not it, Alpha," Maggie whispered in a cracked voice. In her voice, I could detect fear, and that surprised me because Maggie was li
Damon's POV: I lay in bed with my arms wrapped around Sherry. After the little talk our wolves had, they gave us back control, and I took that chance to be with my mate. I lifted her up and went with her to our bedroom, laying down and holding her in my arms. There were no more words shared between us, just warmth. I shifted and pulled away from her when a knock sounded at the door. She sat upright and rubbed my back gently. Since knowing and understanding why I had acted that way, she was giving me supportive gestures without a word, and that made me feel so much better. "Come in," I answered. Maggie walked in with Xiao by his side. "What now?" I asked coldly. "Alpha, I don't really know how bad your situation was with my past Luna, but I can vouch for her that she's not in a good place," he said, then continued. "When Luna Debby first came into our pack, she was one of pride and happiness. The Alpha met her on his hunt and instantly knew that she was his mate. He wasted no
Debby's POV: "All you need is rest so that the medicine can kick in and work. The unborn pup is fine, and you will recover in no time," a healer said, then walked out of the ward room. I looked at the ceiling as tears rolled down. I was back at the same old pack I had destroyed with my own two hands. How things fall apart. The same Alpha and his pack I hated with my very life and breath were the ones helping me out. Was this my punishment? If it was, then it was very painful. How was I going to face a mate I rejected and wanted dead? Would he look at me or even give me a second chance? No, he promised to take my life if we ever crossed paths, so definitely, my death was just around the corner. I quickly sat upright when Damon walked in with his woman. Behind him were Alec and Maggie. I was scared of him, but not as scared as I was of that monster. Maggie quickly went to my side and touched my shoulder. "Calm down and stop moving around too much. You might hurt your wrist. Th
Johnson's POV: Is she fucking him right now? Perhaps begging him to take her back? Those thoughts invaded my mind as my wolf grew impatient with each passing minute. The only reason I had sent her with him was because I wanted her to study the place and report back to me on time. If I was going to take Damon down, I needed to know how big his pack house was, how many warriors were guarding it, and how many of them lived in it. I also needed to know how many high ranks were with him or if he had some other supernatural beings serving him. Our plan was simple: send the bitch in and have her give us the needed information. Since she was his first mate, he definitely had a soft spot for her. "Was it a wrong move to send the whore over there?" I asked my Beta angrily. "I told you, didn't I? You should have chained her to a tree. What if she gets his sympathy and help?" My wolf growled. "Relax, Alpha. I'm sure she knows her place and who she serves. I believe and trust she will be back
Maggie's POV: "Is it done?" Debby asked once I stepped out of the tent. She was breathless, and her hand was bloody, as well as the knife she was holding. A shiver went down my spine as I composed myself. There was no doubt that she was a heartless killer when it came to those she wanted revenge on. How could she easily stab the very mate who was the father of her unborn child? I did know she was going to watch him partake of the poisoned whiskey, but what I didn't see coming was her stabbing him. "Yes, and it worked perfectly fine, exactly as you had predicted. They stopped me from testing the whiskey," I answered. "Of course they did. The three of them were selfish and very greedy when it came to liquor," she said, then looked at her bloody knife with a smile. "Please excuse me, Maggie. I need to make sure those two are dead as well," she said, then walked into the tent where the Gamma and Beta were. After a few minutes, she came out with blood dripping from her hands. "Now
Damon's POV: "She is finally gone," I whispered softly, then glanced at Sherry, who was sitting next to me at the edge of the bed. "How are you feeling?" she asked in concern as she stood up and moved to my desk where the whiskey bottle was, grabbing it. "Annoyed. I was so sure she was going to manage to kill Johnson and his Beta because she was a killer, but a part of me still thought she would perish first," I answered honestly as she laughed softly and picked up the whiskey glass in her other hand. "You know, Debby will forever be grateful to you," she said, then walked to where I was and stood in front, extending the whiskey glass to me. "I doubt that," I answered after I had taken it. She poured the liquid into the glass then gestured for me to drink. I quickly drank all of it in one gulp and groaned as a wave of relief washed through me. "More," I whispered softly. She smiled then poured more into the glass. I drank again, but this time taking it slow. "Tomorrow I'll
