Shannon’s POV

My eyelids fluttered open but the bright light made me shut it almost immediately. I could hear background voices but I couldn’t decipher what they were talking about.

Trying to find out what was going on around me, I forced my eyes open only to discover I was on a hospital bed, surrounded with sterile white walls and medical equipment which were beeping continuously. My body was aching all over, and my head, throbbing with pains added to my frustration.

With my eyes tightly shut, I allowed confusion to wash over me as I tried to remember what had happened. The last thing I could recall was drinking the water Selena offered and then I was unable to move.

“Wolfsbane?” I heard mom’s voice and at that instant, my eyes shot open.

Wolfsbane — I wondered, my gaze fixed on mom and the doctor.

“Yes. She consumed a lethal amount which led her to current state.” The doctor said.

“I didn’t take wolfsbane. What is the doctor talking about?” I mumbled, trying to fix my gaze on

    Shannon’s POV After that encounter with mom, our relationship became strained. She noticed I was still mad at her, so she tried all that was within her power to please me, yet, I didn’t budge. The following day saw me in my room cuddling my pillow as I thought of all the good times I had shared with her. Suddenly, my mind went to Selena. Deep down, I was certain she was behind the wolfsbane incident. Even if the triplets bullied me, I knew there is no way they would try to hurt me to the extent I would find myself in the hospital. When she came around that day, fright and anger overwhelmed me and that was why I began to cough since I was uncomfortable. If I had known she had an ulterior motive, I would have asked the triplets to ask her to drink the water. Of course they wouldn’t ask any questions, moreover, she was on their blacklist. “Shannon, breakfast is ready.” Cole said, poking his head into my room. “I already had breakfast.” I replied, not bothering to look in his direct

    Selena’s POVI woke up feeling super excited. First, the moon goddess had granted me an opportunity to get rid of Shannon in the easiest way. Secondly, she was in the hospital, probably fighting for her life or maybe even dead by now. Jhenna was excited just like I was. With the way things were going, the only thing that would separate us is death. She always went out of her way to see to it that I was happy and she always shared in my happiness. What more could I ask for in a friend? “Here, drink up before the ice melts.” Jhenna said, handing a plate of ice cream to me.“Thank you.” I replied, flashing a smile at her. “Are you still on the school website?” She asked, placing her legs on the table I was resting against. “Yeah. It seems she isn’t dead yet…” “Don’t say that. You and I know the wolfsbane was an overdose and would take the intervention of the moon goddess for her to survive. I guess the family doesn’t want to reveal her death yet. Don’t worry, the news will come in

    Eric’s POVI groaned frustratingly as anger surged through my veins, this couldn’t be happening. I couldn’t deny that I hated Shannon but seeing her mated to that bastard made my blood boil. I couldn’t understand these feelings but I did understand something. I had to get Shannon back, she was mine alone! No one could stop me from having her, even if it took my last breath!I flung the items on my table away, totally drowned in rage. “Can you just sit down and think.” My wolf voice echoed in my head. Ignoring the annoying voice in my head, I punched the wall beside me. “You need to stop all of this! Let’s find a solution!” my wolf said. “I also want Shannon, there is just something about her wolf that attracts mine. Remember that I warned you against rejecting her.” My wolf added, his voice already starting to annoy me. “You don’t have to remind me about that!” I finally replied to him. My wolf and I didn’t share an amazing bond maybe because I never listened to him or because I

    Ricky’s POV“Heard any news about her?” I asked my brother enthusiastically. The news of Shannon missing had brought out several emotions from me. I had never felt these emotions before, it was hard to adapt to it. It felt weird that my heart tugged just at the mention of her name. I didn’t realize how much I enjoyed teasing her, how her voice brought melodies to my ears, and how her perfect little body pleased my hungry eyes. I felt stupid that I had to find out this way how much I cherished her. “We have not heard anything! This is becoming aggravating, my wolf is beginning to go insane!” Jules said, his voice sounding frustrated. “I don’t know why I can’t get Shannon out of my thoughts. It’s stuck! I never knew there was a day that I would cherish our moments like this.” Jules added with a sigh. “Same here, I regret that we are always bullying her. She doesn’t deserve something like that.” Cole said. “You guys are right but we can’t do that now, we have to get her out of thi

How dare he even think of laying his hands on her.Just thinking about it made my blood boil. Through the corner of my eyes, I noticed Shannon making an attempt to stand up but she immediately collapsed. I left Eric and rushed to Shannon. Her pulse was low, she had lost consciousness. After beating Eric, we left Cole to take him to the pack prison while I took Shannon to the hospital. I carried her into the car before rushing her to the hospital, hoping that she was fine before we could reach the hospital. We got to the hospital and I brought her down while urging the nurse to take care of her. She was led into the emergency room while I went back to teach Eric a very good lesson.

This is insane, we can’t allow this.” She continued, paranoid.I was the one supposed to be in her shoes but for some reason, she was being overly paranoid. “Why do things like this happen to me?” I thought.My life was in ruins and there wasn’t any solution. I couldn’t believe that Eric was going to be the father of my child. But there was a possibility that it wasn’t his. “No, it can’t be,” I said amidst the conversation.“I understand that everything seems rocky right now, but it’s going to be fine,” Robin said comforting me.I was used to hearing those words, it was going to be fine but deep down everyone knew it wasn’t going to be fine.

    Shannon, five years later.As the sun streamed through the windows, filling the room with warmth, I found myself chasing after our energetic twins, boy and girl, who are barely five years old. Laughter echoed through the house as they raced around the living room.“Slow down, you two!” I called out, trying in vain to keep up with their energy.But Jules walking in just chuckled from the doorway, his eyes shining with amusement. “Let them play, my love,” he said, his voice filled with affection. “They’re just having fun.”I sighed, knowing he was right. As much as I wanted to keep them safe, I couldn’t deny them the simple joy of being young and carefree. With a resigned smile, I watched as they continued their game of chase and catch, their laughs filling the air with screams.Just then, I felt Jules’ arms wrap around my once again pregnant belly from behind, his embrace warm and comforting. I leaned back into his arms, relishing the feel of his strong arms around me. “How are you and

    Shannon’s POVTwo days after the investigation for Jules’ attempted murder, as I entered his room, I found him fuming in his bed, his face twisted with frustration.“They couldn’t find him,” he muttered to me before I said anything, his voice dripping with irritation. “Matthew has slipped through our fingers again.”I sighed as I watched Jules’ restless movements, knowing this was going to be a long conversation. “You need to rest, Jules. Let the guards handle this.” I said firmly, approaching his bedside. “You’re not in any condition to be worrying about Matthew right now.”Jules shot me a glare, but I could see the pain in his eyes. “I can’t just sit here while that traitor is out there,” he grumbled, shifting uncomfortably against his pillows.I gently placed a hand on his arm, trying to calm him down. “You need to focus on getting better,” I urged. “The guards will find Matthew eventually. You need to trust them.”He let out a frustrated sigh, but finally relented. “Fine,” he grum

    Shannon’s POVI walked back to the castle, my mind swirling with thoughts about Matthew. He didn’t deny it. He didn’t even try to. My suspicions were like shadows creeping over me, chilling me to the bone. But without solid proof, I felt like I was playing with smoke.I found Jules in his study, buried under a mountain of paperwork. His tired eyes glanced up at me, and I could tell he was bracing himself for another round of my suspicions.“Jules, I need to talk to you about Matthew,” I blurted out before he could stop me.He sighed heavily, rubbing his temples. “Shannon, we’ve been over this. You’re letting your imagination run wild.”I shook my head, frustration bubbling inside me. “But Jules, I just need you to listen. I know something’s not right.”He looked at me with a mix of sympathy and exasperation. “Shannon, I understand you’re scared after everything that’s happened. But maybe you’re seeing things that aren’t there. It’s understandable, given the trauma you’ve been through.

    Shannon’s POV“I’m not lying to you Jules, you need to believe me when I say that Mathew is not a good person. He is trying to pot against you and why won’t you believe me?” I inquired with a very stern countenance plastered on my face.“Oh please Shannon can you please just stop all of this drama? Why are you bothering yourself over something that you shouldn’t? I don’t know what is feeding you with lies but you know better than to believe everything you hear.” Jules snapped at me, walking back to his desk, and sunk into it without giving me any more regard.I knew he wasn’t going to believe me from the start but why? I’ve been on Mathew’s trial forever and it’s enough for me to know that he is planning on hurting Jules.But why won’t Jules listen? Why is he so certain that Mathew can’t do anything to him? Why am I looking like the crazy one here? All I’m trying to do is to avert him from the danger that is heading right towards him.I couldn’t let anything happen to Jules but at thi

Doing research won’t make me lose anything but ignoring this would.I knew he had been working here and I knew exactly where to start my investigation from. The best way to get my answers is through the maids.They were the eyes and ears of everything, all I needed was to convince a maid to tell me everything. Of course, she would resist at first but later she’ll give in to some persuasion.I paced around my room thinking hard if this was the right way to go about it.

The situation with Matthew had left me unsettled, and I know I had to find a way to make Jules listen to my warnings about him.As I entered the main hall, my eyes immediately fell on Michael, playing innocently with a toy on the floor. Beside him stood Matthew, the man I found so suspicious.My instincts screamed at me to grab Michael and run, but I forced myself to stay calm. I hurried over to my son, scooping him up into my arms protectively. Michael grinned up at me, holding out the toy he had been playing with.I turned to face Matthew, my expression hard and suspicious. “What are you doing here?” I demanded, my voice laced with tension.Matthew blinked in surprise, taken aback by my abruptness. “I came to see Jules,” he replied, gesturing vaguely. “One of the maids told me to wait here, and I saw Michael, so I thought I’d keep him company.”My grip on Michael tightened, my protective instincts in overdrive.

    Shannon’s POV.The next day Jules and I moved into the pack house.It was still so surreal to me that I was an Alpha.Jules was almost completely healed now and he kept talking about how it was all because of his training yesterday. I mentioned to him that it was probably because of the training he’s still not properly healed yet but he just laughed in my face.As soon as we arrived in the pack house, we were welcomed by the slaves. They were all lined up in the living room in a straight line dressed in black and whiteThey had to be at least fifty to a hundred of them.What on earth did we need so many slaves for?I wondered as I scanned their faces.I glanced over at Jukes who seemed a little too confident. I wish I had his confidence. It seemed like he was used to it, unlike me.“These are the palace slaves, they are always at your service, They all have been assigned different stations. You will eventually get used to them but for now, these are the most important faces you will

    Jules POVI woke up in a brightly lit room. I blinked, trying to adjust to the harsh fluorescent light.“Jules!” A familiar sounding voice called out and I frowned as her face came into view.“Shannon,” I sat up a little too quickly and groaned out in absolute pain.“Hey Jules,” she smiled at me.“Don’t move too much. You have not yet healed up.” She said, her sweet voice wrapping around me like a blanket.“You’ve been released?” it was supposed to be an observation but it came out as a question. I was so happy to see her, I couldn’t believe I had won. At some point, I had completely blacked out but if she was here with me then I had won.“Thanks to you. I’m so sorry for what you had to go through for my sake.* She said, hugging me.I winced at the pain and she quickly let go of me as if I were some fragile glass.“No,” I protested at the absence of her warmth. I wanted it back but I knew she would be too afraid to hurt me. That was just who Shannon was.“I’m sorry, you seem to still
