~AZALEA~

He turned to face me, a mischievous smile creeping on his lips. “From the picture which I have just shown you all, it's obvious Azalea here is related to the man in the picture. And since the man in question is a human hunter, I suspect she is working with him underground, and is obviously planning to get us all captured.”

The hall erupted into a loud noise as everyone turned their gazes on me, their mouths wide agape.

It felt like the whole world was crumbling on me as their stares lingered around me.

I slowly turned to face August, and I was met with the coldest reaction I have ever received.

His face stiffened, his jaw clenched in anger as his eyes remained glued to me. “Azalea, is this true? Tell me this is all a joke.” He yelled, anger seeping through his voice.

I was both ashamed and frightened by his words. I lowered my head in fear, unable to clear my name off these accusations, because they were actually true.

But how was I ever going to say that to them? How was I g

    ~AUGUST~This was the highest humiliation I had ever received in my lifetime, and I swear never to let it slide this time.Zoe was right about Azalea after all, but I was so blinded, thinking she was only speaking from a side of hatred and anger. As soon as the guards had locked Azalea in the dungeon, I dismissed the rest of the pack members, rescheduling the meeting for another date when I must have made my decision on what to do next concerning her.But something surprising happened after she had been locked up—Gray, who used to be solely against me, was now weirdly close to me and always visited my packhouse more frequently than I can count.It got so strange to the point that he became a vital part of us in no time. Everyone in the pack respected him and sang his praises for saving the pack from such a huge damage despite our differences.Things took a great turn following Azalea's detainment in the dungeon. It was as though she had been a barrier hindering the pack's progress al

    ~GRAY~That was a close catch, I guess. My legs trembled as August questioned me repeatedly. I felt hot within me and I prayed silently that he doesn't find out about anything that happened between Zoe and I.Well, it was as though the moon goddess listened to my prayer instantly. The fact that he didn't bother anymore with the questions was what baffled me most.He instantly gave up asking further the moment I made him understand that Zoe was no longer in the packhouse.I couldn't imagine what would have become of me if he had found out that Zoe and I had a hand in everything that was happening to Azalea at the moment.I heaved a deep sigh of relief as I saw him off to the gate, and as soon as he had left, I dashed into the manor to fetch Zoe.“You have to leave right away because he is just on his way to the packhouse, and he would be worried about you if he gets there and doesn't find you.” I explained as soon as I saw Zoe come out of her hiding place.Her eyes rolled in panic as t

    ~AUGUST~Barely a few minutes after I had returned back to the packhouse, the guards ran up to me and announced Azalea's disappearance.At first, I didn't believe it, but when I got into the dungeon and saw things for myself, reality hit me hard. She was indeed missing! Where could she have gone?Panic coursed through me as I made up my mind to seek Gray's assistance on this. He was obviously in the best position to help me at this point.But I was disappointed instead as I was met by his absence when I finally arrived at his packhouse.“He made a trip into the woods with some of the guards, and we're not sure when he would return.” His guards had said to me.I felt disappointed, desperation clawing at my veins. I made up my mind to wait for him. He was my only hope left and there was no way I could leave without seeing him. I can't even imagine it.Barely a few minutes after I had made up my mind to wait, I was alerted by some footsteps, as though a group of people were approaching u

    ~AZALEA~I gritted my teeth in pain as the guards howled me back into the same place I had tried to escape from. This was not just any kind of pain. It was an indescribable pain of agony and regrets—a pain of not being able to get out of my bondage and probably meet my father once again, a pain of being drawn back to my worst nightmare when I thought I was finally out.At this point, I gave up trying to leave the dungeon ever again, as it was clearly obvious that I was never going to get a chance ever again.August didn't look like he was going to let me out of his sight once again. He was so determined to make me pay dearly for attempting to leave at the first instance.I still wondered how he had changed so quickly, just within a few days of Zoe's arrival. If only he knew her real motive of being with him. If only he had an idea that she was in a relationship with his brother and not him, and that they were only using him as a tool to achieve what they wanted.How could he be so bli

    ~AZALEA~Of what use was it speaking up anyway, when no one would be willing to listen to what I had to say? Not even August would take me seriously if I told him that Zoe's intentions towards him were not genuine.How else am I supposed to go about this if not keeping my lips sealed—at least for now? As much as I wished to save August from the trouble he was about to get himself into, I couldn't just lay down my life in exchange for his safety.The following morning after the encounter with Zoe, I woke up only to find myself lying next to August.It was hard to believe it at first but after taking a close glance at the person lying beside me, my suspicions were confirmed. It was indeed August.His hand was crossed over my shoulder, pinning me in a possessive manner.I rolled my eyes in disbelief and quietly rolled his hand away, but that was before his eyes went open.I scampered in fear, rolling myself quickly away from him. His eyes trailed mine cautiously, his hands scribbling the

    ~AZALEA~As we marched on to the entrance, it became clear enough that the person walking towards us was no other person but Zoe!My eyes widened as they traveled to August. I was expecting him to give an explanation for this. Why was Zoe in the supposed place of relaxation he had brought me to? Why does she have to show up now?I was terribly shocked to my marrow as August extended his hand and shook her, offering her a smile. He seemed to have forgotten so soon that he was actually here with me. He was so absentminded that he got lost in a discussion with Zoe, and soon, they were heading towards the entrance door, leaving me behind with the guards.My jaw clenched, a mix of anger and fear engulfing me as I watched them leave. I suddenly felt a bit relieved when August turned around, locking his eyes with mine.He gestured to the guards, pointing an index finger at me. “Bring her with you. She is the sole reason why we are here.” He said and returned his hand to rest on Zoe's shoulde

    ~AZALEA~“Aug…August?” I managed to choke out, my voice trembled, feeling the entire world crash around me. Time seemed to stretch endlessly and I thought he was bluffing until I saw some men marching towards me boldly.They grabbed my hands and pinned my knees down to the floor, forcing my head up.My eyes locked into August's once again, but this time, it looked like nothing but betrayal. I could feel the remaining pieces of my heart being shattered as I met his gaze.I waited earnestly to see if he would go back on his words and tell these hungry-looking fellows that he never actually meant what he had said earlier.But none of that happened. Instead, he nodded in approval, and it was as if that was the only thing the men were waiting for as they lifted me to my feet and dragged me out of the meeting arena.“Where are you taking me?” I asked in tears, not minding what the repercussion of my question would be. At this point, they had done their worst, and there was absolutely nothin

    ~August~I felt so fulfilled as I returned to the packhouse with Zoe by my side. For us, it was a mission accomplished. We had finally gotten rid of Azalea and that was obviously the best decision I had ever made in a long time.When we arrived, Gray walked up to us. At first, I was worried, seeing him in the packhouse at such an hour. I never expected him to be here, let alone sitting patiently and awaiting our arrival. But I maintain my composure, approaching him with a smile.“August, where are you coming from?” He asked, looking around restlessly like he had lost something. His gaze came resting on me all of a sudden, and he paused, grabbing my clothes. “Where is Azalea?”My eyes narrowed, reeling in suspense from what I just heard. I raised a brow at him, expecting that he would rephrase his statement, but he never did. His eyes were like a burning fire, fierce and filled with intense anger. “Where the hell is she?!” He asked once again, pushing me slightly.I staggered and man

There was a time they were fighting because of the position of Luna, each of the wolves came with different techniques to get me to claim them but there was Isabella, one who doesn't even want me.“What's going on here!” I thundered when I saw Vanessa choking one of the maids.I shut the door behind me, Vanessa released her hand and the maid fell to the ground and coughed trying hard to catch her breath.“What are you doing here?” My question was directed to Vanessa.I looked at the girl on the ground.I knew she was one of the maids in charge of cleaning my room.

I shut my eyes trying to contain the anger that was building up and not to growl in a public place.“Oops…I vomited.” She giggled and I lost it.I spanked her butt and she cried out.I opened the door of the car and threw her in before strapping her to the

We can't keep hiding in a corner?’ I signed,my legs were already aching due to too much bending.“Should we go to Felix for help?” Mandy asked.“That's the first place Logan would look for me.” I dismissed.“Yeah . that too.” She pouted.Mandy suddenly gasped and I looked at ten front in fear, thinking the men had caught up until she tapped my shoulder and smiled.“I have an idea but might not sit well with you.” She told me.“Hit me.” I respo

Funny enough how my wolf loves everything about her,I had to keep him in check when he kept on hammering to mark her and claim her as his.I opened the door to the room slowly,I wanted to wake Isabella up but noticed that she was up already and was dressing. I couldn't peel my eyes off her body,my eyes trailed up her spine until it landed on a mark on her left shoulder.It was a crescent moon mark.“Heyyyyyy!!” Isabella threw her clothes at me.I looked away from her,but still pondered on what I had seen. I cleared my throat when Isabella stomped her feet on the ground.“I'll drop you off at school.” I told her before walking out.“Pervert!!” She yelled at me as I left.She came out after she was fully dressed and prepared,I caught her stealing glances at me when our eyes met she hissed.“So have

I could hear strange noises but that wasn't all,I could feel someone was watching me and I wasn't safe. Following my instinct I made a beeline and as I did I heard growling and the sound of footsteps.I peered at the back and saw a pack of wolves chasing after me, gnawing their teeth.
