Alicia's POV.

"I guess you are really enjoying your time working for Logan as his personal assistant." Amelia chuckled softly as she looked at me.

I had dropped by at the Cass bar. She had no better choice than to retain her work there. That was the only way to raise some money.

"Enjoying my time as his personal assistant?" I repeated, placing so much emphasis on the 'assistant' as I looked at her. "You always seem to have a way when it comes to sarcasm, isn't it?" I rolled my eyes as I rested on the counter.

She chuckled softly again as she looked at me as she cleaned the cup, getting ready for the work day ahead.

"Oh, Alicia! Don't be hilarious." She rolled her eyes before winking at me. "We both know that you two happen to have this little love sparks going on and if there is anyone getting in the way of it, then it's gonna be you, Alicia." She snapped as she piled up the clean cups together.

"Can we not go there now, Amelia?" I scowled as I looked at her. "I already told you t

    Alicia's POV"Good morning, Logan!" Amelia greeted him as she dropped the rag she was holding. She walked down to the table he had occupied as she held her notepad in her hand, ready to take down their order.I raised my head and I couldn't help but wonder why he was still looking at me. The moment our eyes met, he quickly moved his eyes away as he looked at Amelia now. "Just coffee!!" He responded coldly as he tilted his lips. Amelia returned to the counter as she arranged the coffee he had ordered. Within a few minutes, he was done and he got up from his chair after dropping his bill on the tray."Alicia, you are coming with me!!" He snapped as he looked at me.Before I could even give him a response, he was gone. "Is he okay?" Amelia asked me in a whisper as she looked at me. "He looks cold. Did one of his numerous girlfriends break his heart?" She chuckled softly as she looked at me. "You can continue with your work." I snapped as I rolled my eyes before picking up my handbag.

    Jayson Holmes' POV."Oh! Here you are." I mumbled as I walked up to the VIP section which was occupied by the children of the founding member children.It was such an honor seeing the shock on their faces as I walked in, interrupting their conversation."Uncle. Jayson?" Logan jolted up immediately as he looked at me. He couldn't take a step forward as the shock had overwhelmed him already. It's been fifteen years since I left New Kingston, and there was only one thing that brought me back to New Kingston after all these years of staying away.And that was to find the killer behind Liam Bohen's tragic death. Everyday, I curse myself upon realizing that I had ignored my wolf's constant disturbance. I would have been there that fateful day when he got murdered, but then, I thought my brother-in-law, Alphonso Bohen, had better ways of protecting his own heir, Liam.I looked at all of them, and all it did was to bring back memories. Memories I wished to bury forever.Not just happy memo

    Jayson Holmes' POV.I grinned as I turned back to Logan. We both stared at each other for a long while before I looked away. "I was hoping I could get a warm welcome, an embrace or even a kiss on my cheeks but then, I met the angry Logan after fifteen years of being apart." I mumbled with a smile on my face."I don't know what game you are trying to play here, uncle. Jayson but I am not interested in it!" He scowled as he picked up his glass cup that still had liquor in it.It was okay. Fifteen years being away, I had gotten used to using my werewolf abilities for my own good, and the more I worked on my senses, the more they remained very sensitive and stronger."And you should be the sweetheart, Patricia Shepherd." I mumbled as I rolled my eyes. "How lovely it is to see you again, Tricia." I muttered as I got closer to them."You know, while growing up, my little boy, Liam, always enjoyed your company. You were such a life to reckon." I said with a smile."I knew I would find you gu

    Jayson Holmes' POV."Isn't that disappointing?" He asked as he used his werewolf speed to get to where I stood like he was about entering my body. "Who are you exactly?" I asked again as I looked at him. "And what's your interest in this society? It is common to protect our own no matter what evil is committed. We value family first, no matter what." I shrugged as I looked at him.He looked at me as he smiled at me. "It's fine, Jayson. Guess we will see some other time!!" He grinned as he looked at me. I heard a fast rushing sound from behind as I turned back to see what it was, and before I could turn back to the mysterious man, he was gone and the moment he was gone, his freshly woody and musky scent was gone already.I scanned the environment repeatedly as I was searching for him."Looking for someone?" I heard a familiar voice as I turned around to see who it was. "Oh! Here you are." I snapped as I looked at him. "Wasn't expecting to see you, Logan." I shrugged as I looked at h

    Collins' POV.I walked inside my apartment as I turned on the bulbs in the room. My black cat was peacefully sleeping on the mini bed I had made for him. I walked down to where it was as I squatted down next to her.I rubbed her thick furs as she curled up even more. "I see you are back, Morgan." Dahlia muttered as she rested on the wall. "What are you up to, Morgan? What's all this?" She questioned as she looked at me.I got up, standing upright as I looked at her. I pulled off my black dress boot, leaving myself just on black silky socks."What's going on?" I wore a frown as I looked at her. "I just sent the kids to bed. A man pulled in an hour ago and brought us here. Whose house is this? Why are we even here, Morgan?" She shrugged as she looked at me."You should be asleep, Dahlia. You know you are not strong yet." I said, furrowing my eyebrows as I looked at her. "That doesn't answer my question, Morgan." Dahlia rolled her eyes as she looked at me. "Last time I checked, we are

    Dahlia's POV."Keep me safe?" She chuckled softly as she looked at me. "Every day I curse myself for still being alive. Of what use am I to Felix and Veronica?" She cursed as she looked at me."Can we not go there now, Dahlia? Haven't we had enough of this argument already, Dahlia?" I shrugged as I got up from the black sofa I was seated on."Five years ago, I know you ended up working under Eriksson's firm and things got messy at the end of the day but that wasn't your fault in any way, Dahlia. You always let your guilt get the best of you which I don't find cool." He growled angrily as he looked at me. "It doesn't change the fact, Morgan. I got pregnant, I gave birth to those kids out of wedlock. I saw my entire life collapsing right before me, don't you understand that?" I fired back as I coughed."Is that why you attempted suicide 3 years ago? Huh?" He asked angrily as he looked at me. "All I ever did was to love you. To always be there for you. What if I had stayed back that day

    Alicia's POV"Look at me, Alicia." She said as she held my arms. "This is none of your business, and you don't want to get involved with it. The moment you satisfy your curiosity, it might be late already, Alicia." She said in a calm tone as she looked at me. I felt myself get weak instantly as I looked away. She was right but then, how could I forget the stranger from earlier today, Jayson Holmes?" I rolled my eyes as I forced out a smile as I looked at her. "Okay, fine. I won't get involved." I mumbled as I looked at her."I know you, Alicia. I know you can be very stubborn at times." She scowled as she looked at me."Promise me you won't get involved in any of these?" She asked again as she raised up her pinky finger as she wore a broad smile on her face. "Promise me, Alicia." "Fine, I promise." I responded as I brought out my pinky finger as she broke it before embracing me warmly."So, how is madam Cassie?" I asked as I looked at her. "How did your day go today?" I asked with

    Jayson's POV"Good morning, Emilia. What about it? How are you preparing for the banquet?" Grace turned to Emilia who was seated on the chair, reading a magazine."About the banquet. This can really be tiring most of the time, I must confess." She shrugged as she dropped the magazine, then turned to Grace."Guess it's a long tradition. It can never be scraped away. And we just have to also pass it down to the generations to come." Stephanie McKinsey scowled as she looked at Grace and Emilia.The banquet was held every year, in the ninth month of every year which marked the harvest season and also, they used this period to celebrate the moon goddess for keeping them safe and protecting their kind."If only Ian Eriksson would let me go for a vacation, I would be happy. He is adamant about this." Emilia groaned as she rolled her eyes. "And talking about you, Stephanie, will Helen be attending tomorrow's banquet?" Grace asked as she looked at Stephanie who remained quiet for a while. "F

    Elena's POV The early morning light filtered through the pack house windows and casted a golden glow over the kitchen, while I busied myself with preparing breakfast. It was a calm morning, but I could feel tension in the air. While the battle went on yesterday, Alphonso got captured and what was going to be done with him hadn't been decided yet, but whatever decision was going to be taken will define the pack's future.I stood by the counter, stirring a pot of oatmeal while Kanu and Kiana bickered playfully over the cereal I had given them earlier. Something about their laughter and noise felt comforting and reminded me of the simple life that we almost lost. It was hard to imagine that we managed to pull through, but as I glanced at the family photo, the realisation that we had survived set in.Then, Rex walked in, looking as if he had just woken up, his dark hair a bit ruffled. "It sure smells good in here," he said groggily.I smiled at him. "I'm preparing breakfast obviously, bu

    Elena's POV The energy was electric in the pack house. Wolves in human and shifted forms moved around the courtyard with their voices conveying relief and celebration. Despite the tension everyone felt from the battle we endured, everyone felt hopeful and personally, I can't remember the last time I felt that way.Standing near the edge of the crowd while watching as pack members approached Rex to congratulate him, I noticed that he moved slowly as a result of his injuries but his presence was still as commanding as ever. He cemented his role as a leader with each nod of his head and each word he exchanged with them. "Are you okay?" A voice said from my side, breaking me out of my thoughts. Turning sideways, I see that it's Logan."I think so," I replied, my gaze shifting back to Rex."You give off this feeling of someone that's getting ready to run." Logan said with a mischievous smile, though his tone was gentle.That caused a short laugh to escape my lips, "it's just a lot. All o

    Elena's POVI woke up to the morning light filtering through the blinds of the hospital room with its soft rays washing over Rex's face. He was still asleep with his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. Despite how pale he looked with the bandages wrapped around his chest, he looked like a warrior at rest after fighting a long battle.Leaning back against the chair by his bed with my body still aching from dozing off in an uncomfortable position with my hands still resting on his, unwilling to let go I closed my eyes slightly but the image of Logan walking towards me with some of Rex's blood on his body replayed in my head. The door opened behind me and I turned to see Logan walk in with clean clothes and a smile on his face while carrying two cups of coffee. He smiled at me softly as he approached before placing one of the cups on the small table beside me. "I thought you would need this," he said as he sat down on the other side of Rex's bed."Thanks," I replied gratefully

    Elena's POV I was in a room, praying that the battle goes in like favour when a wolf rushed in agitation."What's going on in the battlefield?" I asked hurriedly."We were able to defeat Kingsley but..". "But what?!" I asked impatiently."The Alpha was wounded in battle and is being rushed to the hospital right now." As I heard that, I felt dread overcome me and without a second thought, I grabbed my keys."Marie!" I called out, my voice shaking. "Watch the kids for me. I have to go."Maria frowned in concern, "Elena, hold on!"But I was already out the door, my heart pounding as I drove towards the hospital.The drive to the hospital was a blur with my mind focused on getting to the hospital as fast as I could. The sounds of the radio faded into the background as my thoughts consumed me with the words of the wolf being played over and over again in my mind."What if he doesn't make it?"The very thought of that happening struck me hard at my chest like a punch. I had spent so much

    Elena's pov"What if you don't have to?" Alicia asked, "you don't really have to go back to how things were between you two and honestly, I don't think it's a good idea since things were pretty toxic between you two.""That is true." I said with a gentle nod of my head. "So I suggest that you both build something new." She replied.Hearing that, it was as if a door opened up in my mind as I began to seriously consider her opinion.The following morning, the Pack gathered at an open field which was the site of the meeting with every wolf on high alert.Standing before us was Rex with his commanding presence as he addressed the crowd. "Today we are here to fight for the future of our packs. Kingsley and Alphonso have both been controlling us for so long using just fear and manipulation and it's time to put an end to it."In response, everyone cheered in approval with some of them howling. I stood at the edge of the gathering with the women and children while looking for signs of troubl

    Elena's POV I, my twins, Marie and Alicia had moved to Rex's pack away from New Kingston. He had figured out that if we remained in New Kingston we'd be easily attacked by Kingsley and his cohorts.His mother was so filled with joy to see us finally return to the pack.Standing at the edge of Rex's pack grounds, I felt the cool air against my skin. All around me were werewolves shifting into their forms and patrolling the perimeter with their scouts running back and forth with one update after the other. Turning sideways, my eyes rested on Rex who was barking orders with authority which was expected since he was an Alpha and knew the weight of his responsibilities.Anyone else standing on the spot I stood would have felt nervous or utterly terrified but I felt oddly calm. I knew what was happening right now wasn't just about survival anymore but about standing for something and protecting the people that matter the most.As I busied myself with my thoughts, a voice broke me out of it

    Logan's POVThe air in the safe house was heavy with tension with Zachary pacing the small room with his footsteps creaking rhythmically on the wooden floor. On a table situated by the side, I sat with a map spread out before me as I observed the marked locations which represented Kingsley's growing influence across the packs.Suddenly, the footsteps stopped in front of me which prompted me to raise my head only to see Zachary staring at me. "We don't have much time." He said silently. "Kingsley's plan is already in motion and Alphonso's political might will protect him if we don't act now."Do you think I do not know that?" I asked with a quirked eyebrow. "Of course I do but if we move too soon, we risk exposing our hands too early. We need to hit them where it'll hurt the most-where they least expect us to hit."Zachary folded his arms in response, he didn't look too convinced by my reasoning. "And how do you think we should do that? Kingsley has access to Alphonso's resources, the

    Elena's POV Sitting down by the kitchen table, my hands trembled slightly as I stirred my cup of tea with the clanking generated from my spoon hitting the sides of the cup grounding me. It was late in the afternoon and the sun had cast long shadows with golden patterns around the kitchen. As I did that, my mind went to the words Collins uttered the previous night with each word echoing in my head. "Rex won't see it coming. Once he's out of the way, we'll have complete control. Are you worried about Elena? You shouldn't be, She's loyal for now."I couldn't believe what I had just heard. The man I had trusted my life and the life of my kids with, the same man I let into my life had been scheming all along? I could not believe it but the weight of his betrayal pressed heavily against my chest. How could I be so blind"? Gripping the edge of my table to steady myself, I took in deep breaths and I didn't notice one of my kids come close to me. "Mom!"Kanu called, startling me, which ca

    Elena's POV.Hearing the faint hum of the coffee machine in the background alongside the sound of the TV and the sound of laughter from Kiana and Kanu should have brought me a sense of peace and comfort but in the particular situation I'm in, it only brought me unease with my hand tightening around my cellphone while I stared at it.I had sent Collins a text a while ago which he had left unanswered and that made me extremely anxious. "Mom!" Kiana shouted, his voice interrupting my thoughts. "Kanu is cheating again and I do not like it!"With a sigh of exhaustion, I dropped the phone into my pocket before turning around and walking into the living room and there stood Kanu on the sofa, triumphantly holding the game controller in his hand and high over his head with Kiana by the side glaring at him with her little hands balled into fists."I am not cheating!" Kanu yelled back, while jumping away as Kiana tried to snatch the controller from him."Okay, that's enough." I said, stepping b
