Liv’s POVIt didn’t take long before duty called and frank had to leave to greet some of other pack Alphas alongside his fatherI felt vulnerable because I knew with Frank not being by my side I was more susceptible to Luna Rebecca. She was waiting to feast on an opportunity like this since I had noticed her staring at me but the only reason she hadn't come close was because of Frank.After Frank left, just like I had expected luna Rebecca didn't want to miss such an opportunity.As soon as she noticed Frank wasn't by my side anymore, she excused herself and strode towards me. I still had that fear in my heart but I needed to act brave because if she considered me weak, it would be much easier for her to use whatever she had at hand to her own advantage.I shifted away from her, turning my gaze and concentrating on the people in the hall.Luna Rebecca was quite smart for a woman and I expected her to understand I wasn't interested in talking to her.She scooted closer to me, placing
Liv's Pov…My eyes slowly opened, getting accustomed to the ambience as the memories of what happened flashed into my head.I could recall the intimate moments between Max and I but what I couldn't recall was what happened after that.Why did I feel so suffocated? It felt as though someone was intentionally stopping my breathing and that thought scared me to stupor.I winced in pain, trying to raise my body up “Liv what are you doing? please rest some more. You aren't fully recovered” Ryder said with concern laced through his voice.He held my hand, slowly pushing my body on the bed. He arranged the pillow and I placed my head on it.There were a lot of thoughts in my head and I didn't get to notice the triplets were all in the from including the doctor.“It's been three hours and you haven't been able to tell us why she passed out?” Max asked, his gaze fixated on the doctor.“I guess that question should be directed at you because you were with Liv” Callum pronounced, thrusting his h
Liv’e POVI left the dark moon pack alongside with Frank.I was relieved none of the triplets tried to stop me, at least slowly but gradually they were respecting my wishes and nothing could be more greater than that.I was in my room trying to get some sleep, but there was a feeling of discomfort I felt. It started with the inside of my body feeling hotter than usual and then it graduated to to the feeling of something crawling into her body.I sniffed, fidgeting in discomfort, uneasy at the pain which crept up my body.My heart stopped in my chest, and for a long moment I couldn't breathe.I felt really choked and it was hard for me to talk.What reasonated into my brain was the feeling was similar to the way I felt with Max.I crawled out of the bed, dragging my knees towards the door.I felt physical pain, my hand placed on my neck as I clenched tightly onto it.I tried to scream for help but my efforts proved futile.Liv!” I heared a voice scream loudly.I whipped my head up to
Callum’s POVMax, Ryder and I were all seated including my mother and some other very important personnels of the pack while they all talked about a way to move the pack forwardNot me though because Although i was present, my mind wandered far. “I'm sure everyone sitting down here is aware of why this meeting has been scheduled. We have gotten more relaxed during the years and if we face any attacks, we would fall. That’s why we need to increase the security of our pack”one of the personnel said, his voice in an authoritative tone and loud enough for everyone to hear him.“Our pack is just fine, even when Alpha Arthur was alive no adjustment was made and no one was attacked. I can assure you that the dark moon pack isn't at war with anybody” Max voiced out, his legs crossed against each other and his gaze lifted up to everyone. “Sitting down to wait for our rival pack to attack will be an unwise decision to make and don't forget that Alpha Arthur's reign is over. We shouldn't wait
Liv’s POVFrank gestured for me to move forward, which I did. He stepped beside me, filling the space between us.I felt the warmness of his hand on mine and I blushed hard. The way he cared for me wasn't a new thing to me but each time he treated me with so much love, I couldn't help but immense myself in those feelings that clouded my heart.I was even able to have some self control around him. I mean which girl wouldn't fall head over heels in love with him especially when he was so gentle and soft.Frank was the perfect definition of my dream man, my knight in shining armor. The way he looked at me and called my name gave me a tingling sensation in between my thighs and thinking about it had only worsened matters.My fingers got intertwined with his and he lead me out of the woods with slow steps.I shut my eyes close, instantly opening it when I realised what I wanted to ask him.I was so immersed in admiring his good qualities that it slipped out of my mind.I cleared my throat
Callum’s POV…I uncocked the bottle of alcohol, pouring it into the empty glass I held in my hands.I dropped the bottle of alcohol on the table and placed the glass in between my parted lips.I gulped down everything in one go as my throat burned and I choked on it.I flicked my tongue in between my teeth and walked towards the balcony in slow steps.I looked through the balcony as I heared footsteps retreated towards me.By the over powering scent which snapped through my head, I knew who it was so they wasn't any need for me to turn my back in search of who was either ways going to appear before me sooner or later.I thrusted my other hand into my pocket and I patiently waited for her to stand beside me.Just as I had thought, Luna Rebecca stood beside me but my gaze remained at one position.“You are smart enough to know why I'm here" she said and I scoffed."What if I tell you I really don't know why you are here?” I replied with sacarsm laced through my voice and I casted a glan
Max’s POV…I stepped forward and poured myself a second glass of wine.I drew out a chair to sit down and I leaned back, closing my eyes to finally relax.I took several gulps of the wine and stretched my legs out. I felt a shadow behind me, I tilted my head to see Mother who appeared before me.“There's no need to stir up a conversation. I’m not in the mood to talk about anything” I announced in the most calmest tone ever.I pursued my lips, dragged my gaze away from her and looked back at my glass of wine.Deep down inside of my heart I was angry and no one knew about the pain I felt after suddenly loosing my dad.There wasn't any sign of a sickness eating him up from within because if there was any of that sort, I knew for a fact I would do anything to save his life.I woke up one day to hear about my dad's sudden demise and it left an unfading mark on me. If possible I would make sure that the unfortunate date ceased to exist.The incident leading to his death was very suspiciou
Liv’s POV…The sound of the wall cracking filled my ears with my heart pounding in my chest.I couldn't seem to understand what was going on. I found myself alone in an empty hut, I tried to see through the darkness but I couldn't.Where was I and how did I end up here? Were the only questions that raced through my mind.A small light peeked it's way through the wall and stones began to fall on me.Tears stunged my eyes with my heart beating faster than ever, it felt as though it was about to pop out of my chest.I raised my hands over my head to shield myself from the stones falling on the floor.Beads of sweat trickled down my forehead, my face became pale and I wiped the sweat off with a shaking hand and tears ran down my cheeks.My muscles tensed and I knew I needed to save my self. Due to the andrenaline which coursed through my body, my legs lifted up on it's own and I ran with a fast speed trying to look for the exit out of the hut.The more I ran, I kept returning back to the
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
