Callum's POV I suddenly withdrew from Max, as soon as those words had left his lips. I understood Luna Rebecca was into numerous dubiousness and she had an eye for power and all, but killing her to make Liv stay with us was extreme. I had my way and that was far from it "Be careful Max," I replied, checking his eye for signs of transformation. He looked normal and had an aura of stillness around him which was quite unusual. "I mean it, let's kill her," His voice held desperation as he spoke. The look in his eyes showed deep hatred and rage just thinking about her. I saw it in his eyes, he truly meant every word he said. I stood up, clenching my jaw. "Max, you are letting your wolf control you again," I spoke slowly studying his reaction. I suspected it had to be his rival wolf."I mean every word I say. You know it, Callum, you know our mother is more dangerous, even more than we believe. Damn it, Callum. Don't chicken out on me," he was determined enough to do it. I had to reaso
Lid’s POVThe sun crept into the tiny creek of the window while I lay on the soft king-sized bed, rubbing my tired eyes continuously. I yawned tiredly as I sat up from the bed, looking around. The sleep I felt suddenly left me when I glimpsed a figure staring at me from the corner of the room.I flinched for a second, my heart beating loudly until I realized it was just Frank. A sigh left my lips and then I frowned at him seated comfortably on a couch, legs crossed and his index finger pressing against his temple.“What are you doing here?” I asked slowly, pushing the duvet from my body.“You talk in your sleep” he smiled casually at me, bringing his legs down. My heart skipped for a second as that statement sank in.“How long have you been watching me sleep?” A little chuckle escaped his lip as he stood up, walking towards the door. “You will be late for breakfast”“That doesn’t answer my question” There I was, having the most peaceful night of my life, not aware that someone had be
Calum’s POV…Silence filled the room, my ears were attentive to the chirping sounds of the birds flying in the sky.I stared at Max and Ryder who looked downcasted but no one spewed out a word, it almost felt like we decided to engage in the vow of silence.I was unsure of what to do. Finding solutions to any task at hand had never been so hard for me but now it seemed I was trapped within what I desired for myself and mother’s thirstiness for money, fame, and power.Frank was on the other end. He had always been the silent killer. One who minded his business but it never occurred to me he was planning his comeback.I watched him take Liv away with him right in front of my eyes and I couldn't do a damn shit about it.“We seriously fucked up. I don't want to get started on the embarrassment he made us face” I voiced out with a surge of uncertainty inside of me as I slid my fingers into my hair.“Yeah, you're right and despite being so powerful we couldn't use it to our advantage. Liv i
Liv’s POV…“Liv I have some important affairs to attend to in the pack house. I'll see you later” Frank called, his voice resounded in my ears and I whipped my head to look at him wiping off his hands with a tissue.He stood up from the dinning table, pushing his chair behind then he smiled at me.An instant reminder jolted into my head. I reminisced I had a lot of questions I needed answers to and only Frank could give me those answers. I stood up immediately, following him“Frank there's something I need to speak with you about” I spoke up in a rush“Not now Liv, I don't have much time to spare. Once I'm done with running the affairs of the pack house, you won't look for me. I'll come to you” Frank replied."But my question is also important and urgent, I wouldn't stop you if it wasn't” I explianed, hoping my words could change his mind.I desperately needed answers and I couldn't wait for him for some hours. I would die of curiosity.“Try to understand Liv. We shouldn't banter word
Calum’s POV…My legs raced outside at a fast speed. The scream ignited panic inside of me as my chest clenched tightly.For some reason, it felt like I was being dragged back and I puffed out air from my mouth, trying to divert myself from filling my head with thoughts.I stepped inside the room to behold a sight that took me off balance.I was startled, seeing my father's body sprawled on the bed. His eyes closed and his body pale with lifelessness.I puffed out air from my lips, not wanting to let my thoughts occupy my head but then a low voice filled my ears and my eyes darted towards the maid whose body was shaking in sobs at the corner.“What the hell happened!" I thundered, my body shaking from the bitterness I felt. My gaze remained fixated on the maids while she trembled under it.His body looked stiff with his lips pale blue. His hands were put in a tight fist which showed how much he struggled before giving up. Even without being told, I knew for a fact he had been given wol
Liv’s POV…The blast of cold air hit my spine. I rubbed my hands together to warm them up with a look of distraught played across my face, grabbing the bed sheet at my side and I buried my face into the pillow.I let out a scream but I knew it wouldn't be heared since it was muffled by the thickness of the pillow.I hit my legs on the bed repeatedly, trying to look for a means in which I could vent out my frustration.I was losing it slowly and no one really cared.I turned my body over, my back laid on the bed and my face staring up at the ceiling as a loud sigh escaped my lips.Frank's face, his words, and everything about his entire existence flashed through my brain.The strength that over powered me when I hit Frank gave me a reason to doubt if really I was an omega.Was there more to what I was thinking? and if there was, why was lo it so difficult to unravel?.My head was throbbing in pain, my brain racking intensely just to find answers.If I wasn't really an omega then why we
Liv’s POVI was mute with shock hearing those words from Frank. I took out my phone, gazing at the message Callum sent for a second time when he got no reply from me. “It's important”I turned to look at Frank curiously and I forced myself forward.“What's he doing here? You let him in. What does he want to say?” I bombarded him withquestions, not giving him an opportunity to reply to any.“I have no idea on that, you should go see for yourself” Frank urged.“You shouldn't have let him in Frank. Callum is smart enough to understand my silence to his message meant no but he still found his way here” I lashed out, rubbing my forehead and I tilted my head behind.“There's not going to be a difference anyways. He will still force him self in so it's up to you to spare us the drama that's about to unfold tonight” Frank suggested as I nodded my head slowly in approval.There wasn't any use going up against Callum because he is someone that gets his way around things, either by hook or by c
Liv's Pov…An overwhelming shock surged through me and I clenched my eyes closed.I wiped my eyes with the back of my hand, regaining my composure.I leveled my eyes on Callum, unable to understand the intimate moment we just shared.The kiss felt so good that I couldn't compare it to anything I had ever felt. The way his hands caressed my back gently, my breast brushing against his chest and his warm breath on my neck which made me jerk in ectasy.I didn't realise I let out a moan and that made him kiss me even harder. I was convinced Callum had fallen in love with me.No man kisses a girl so intensely, especially one who he doesn't have feelings for or I'm I perhaps mistaken?I couldn't believe what my brain thought about Callum, was he really in love with me or was I just clouded in my misconception?I was lost in my thoughts when a blast of cold air hit my spine. Callum slipped his hands around my waist, tugging me even closer than earlier.His fingers trailing it's way to the ba
Liv's POV Wake up, Liv! Wake up! Liv! I opened my eyes immediately and found myself lying on the floor of a room where I could barely see a thing. My wolf had been calling for hours. Although it was difficult to see in the room, I was strongly convinced that it wasn't my cell room. The floor was finished with slate unlike my cell room which was raw concrete. Moreover, if it was my cell room, I wouldn't be sleeping on the floor. I wouldn't even have rolled off to the floor because my bed was too big for that.. I tried to get up from the floor and a sharp ache hit the back of my neck. "Argh." I groaned, before carefully placing my palm on the spot and massaging it gently. And in that moment when I touched the spot where I felt the ache, a brief memory flashed through my head. I recalled being hit on that spot. And it happened in my cell room. Slowly, it all started coming back to me. Max! He had definitely sent that soldier back to my cell to knock me out. But what for? I folded
Callum's POV Max stood close to one of the glass walls of his penthouse. His back faced the door where I entered from and he didn't bother turning around to look at me. "Coming up here all alone, Callum, is a bold sign that you underestimate me so much," he said in a soft tone. "Cut the crap and tell me where you hid her," I ordered. He chuckled, throwing his head back. "Tell you where she is? Do you really want to know, Callum? Huh?" He shoved a feet backward in order to turn. "Don't dare it," I ordered. "Don't fucking move." "Huh? Don't tell me you're scared to look me in the face," he taunted. I gritted my teeth hard. "I promise you, Max, make another silly move and I will pull this fucking trigger. I swear on my life." "Bloody dare it," he taunted and finally turned around. I aimed the gun at his chest, carefully to shift it slightly from his heart. Then I pulled the trigger. What I expected to be a bang came out as a soft click sound. My orbs flew wide. When d
Callum's POVWhen I heard noises coming from the vent, I knew Ryder had arrived. But something baffled me. It had been more than thirty minutes now since the alarm went off, and yet, not a single man from Max's army had showed up.Climbing down from the vent, Ryder's brows lifted with surprise at the pile of enemy corpses heaped at a corner of the laundry room. "Quite some work you did here," he chuckled."Shut up," I mumbled, heightening my senses as the tip of my ears stood on edge.I went closer to the wall and placed my ear on it, listening carefully."They're coming," I blurted out immediately I started hearing footsteps approaching. "A lot of them. I think we're outnumbered.""That won't be a problem," Ryder said. "I came prepared."The moment he said that, I heard a heavy bang in the vent and two people murmuring and cussing at each other.Seeing a smile grow on Ryder's face, I raised a questioning brow."They're with us," he said, easing my nerves.Two soldiers came down from
Callum's POVThree trucks were ready to roll out, two loaded with arms and the last one with the tools for opening the tunnel.There were four men in each truck, except the last one which had just three of us.All the guns were muffled with silencers, and then, I instructed my men not to shift for any reason. We needed to do everything possible to avoid attracting attention to us as our group wasn't much of a force.As we drove closer to the location of the tunnel that led into the Darkmoon pack, we turned down our lights just in case some of Maxs guards were there. Luckily, there werent."Take your positions," I ordered the armed soldiers, tucking a pistol into the back of my trousers as I climbed down the truck.With a group of three soldiers who grabbed the equipment we had brought to cut the tunnel open, I went to the mouth of the tunnel.The foul stench of dead rodents hit my nose as we got to the entrance of the tunnel to inspect it. A channel that hadn't been used by our pack f
Callum's POVReturning to Dark sky pack with just a diary wasn't what I'd expected from my meeting with Samantha. Not after the risk we'd both taken to meet up in the woods of the Darkmoon.But the fact that Max kept a diary had me thinking and rethinking. If someone had told me he owned a diary, like a girl, I'd have doubted with every ounce of certainty.A sigh left me and I tucked the shitty diary into the pit of my arms.Ryder had a cup of hot coffee with him when I returned, his legs crossed as he rested them on the table while leaning back on his seat. He had never been a lover of coffee. Definitely, he was battling sleep. And yes, executing our plan had taken hell of time. But I'd rather bear that delay than a shameful defeat coming from advancing to fight Max without a proper plan."How did it go?" Ryder asked, dropping his coffee on the table."You mean the meeting with Samantha?" I purposely asked him."What else would I mean?" He queried. But I was pretty sure that if he p
Max's POVI smirked immediately I sighted Samantha’s figure emerge from the woods."Fucking bitch," I grinned. People who mistook silence for foolishness or weakness were the ones I despised the most.She froze in her tracks at the moment she saw me with my soldiers.With my senses heightened, I could hear her heartbeat throbbing fast, like a rat running out of its hole only to meet a cat waiting there for it."M-a-x," her lips quaked, ready to blurt a lie. But I didn't have the time for that.I had wasted much time already, all of which Callum had taken advantage of."It's not what you—" she tried to say, but I shushed her.Pointing at her, I ordered the soldiers who were with me, "arrest her!"A bitch like her deserved to rot in jail. Starved and punished without remorse."Please, Max. Don't do this!" She screamed as they dragged her away. She was the least of my problems. If she had some sense, she should have been able to tell from the start that I'd been following her with cauti
Callum's POVA beep on my phone. It was Samantha.My fingers became fast to touch the screen immediately I saw it was from her."Found something that could be helpful," the text said, "but you have to be careful so he doesn't notice something is off."I shot a gaze at Ryder who stood just beside me and had read the text along with me. "We need to get to her ASAP," I suggested. "We can't sleep on any slightest chance to push our plan further.""Definitely." Ryder nodded, his arms folded across his chest. "Now, what's a good location to meet up with her?""In the empty apartment of your brain—" Someone's voice intruded from the far end of the hall.My veins tense immediately I realized it was Frank. I gritted my teeth hard, fighting hard to suppress my irritation. I knew it was speak of the devil and he'd show up. But no one spoke about this bastard. Not even a single thought.He began to clap his hands as he approached. "Yeah, what a smart plan put together by two grown men at the di
Liv's POVAt the back of my head, I knew that going through someone's else's property without permission was a bad thing to do. At that moment I didn't want to think about what was wrong or right. There wasn't any time left to judge myself.I felt as though I could find something very important inside of this diary. I was curious to know, especially when I was aware of a diary being a person's first friend.It was hard for me though. For the fact that I wasn't used to taking people's stuffs without their permission but I might never get this chance again. I swiveled my head to Max's direction, he was still asleep.It looked as though he wasn't going to wake up at the soonest so I had enough time to my self. I flipped through some more pages but I was astonished at what I saw. Why was it blank? there was nothing written in it. Was this just to mislead me? did Max know about my plan before hand? No it wasn't possible and I knew for a fact I was right in thinking so.I almost slammed the
Liv's POVMy fingers slowly found the buttons of his shirt. I began to unbutton his shirt, my eyes were fixated on him. The way he stared at me was as though he had set his eyes on me for the first time.I walked behind him, removing the shirt off his body. I wrapped my arm around his neck, his back pressed against my bossoms. I began to caress his chest, I didn't fail to notice when his eyelids closed in the pleasure which consumed him.A sly smile beamed on the side of my lips. I thought it was a hard thing to do but it was so easy to pull him close to me.“I'm sorry" I leaned closer, whispering into his ears. I blew my breath on his earlobe as I dropped his shirt on the bed.“Why are you suddenly acting this way towards me?" he asked. His gaze pierced through my eyes, I stared back at him through the mirror.“What way is that? I really don't know what you're talking about” I said, acting completely ignorant. I turned my body away from him.He grabbed my wrist. I stopped right in tr
