*****Gina's POV****Standing in front of the rogue, I couldn't help but notice the burnt mark on him. I looked into his eyes, this way, whatever question I asked, I would be able to tell whether he was lying or not. If possible, I would have to contact him. “Tell me, I'm not going to hurt you, and neither will they. I just want to know the truth. Who sent you here and what is your mission?”The rogue stared at me for a While. I could tell that he was contemplating whether to believe me or not. “Rest assured, I always keep my promise. But you should never lie to me, I said and instantly, my eyes turned into the color of a scarlet. He jolted in fright and quickly moved away from me. I turned my eyes back to their original brown color. “Now are you willing to tell me what I want to know?”“While I and the others were in the woods, some strange man approached us. From the way he smelled, we could tell that he was a pack wolf. But then something was weird about him, and that was the fa
*****Gina's POV*****“Does anyone know about your powers?”“No one except my mom. We decided not to let anyone know about my gift until I was mated to the scarlet Witch.”“So, are you saying, ever since we became bonded your powers have somehow increased?” “Yes, it increased tremendously. That was why I was so sure Diane was lying.”Cain wasn't wrong because my powers had grown as well when he claimed me. So, this is what it means to be mated and claimed to the rightful mate?While we were still on about the matter, reports came in from those who had been chasing over the enemies. It was reported that they lost the enemies while chasing them. I didn't feel bothered about them for now, since I already knew that they were not actually the enemies I was looking for. As far as I'm concerned, this'd masked men have something in common with the ones who invaded my pack. Too bad I can't identify who they were. Again an urgent report came from Fox, this time. “Alpha and Luna, we carry bad
*****Diane's POV*****It's been a week ever since our rescue from the pack. Though I was rescued, I felt like this was not the place I wanted to be. Of course, this cannot be the place I intend to be. Why do I want to be here in the first place? I'm dying to leave this place as soon as I can. I felt like I was about to suffocate to death. The mere thought of Gina taking my place and enjoying the privileges I ought to be enjoying by now, spiked up my insides. I felt like I was going to pass out soon just thinking about it. “Arrrgh!” I screamed with so much anger burning inside me. The door to the room flew open, and my mom came rushing in. “Diane, what's wrong? Talk to me. What happened to you?”I raised my gaze up to my mom with anger filled eyes. “I hate her mom, I hate her so much. I want her dead. I want her to disappear. Why didn't she die when she ought to have died, why?!”I screamed in anguish. “It's okay, my dear. You'll surely take your revenge, that I promise you. But f
*****Gina's POV****I walked briskly down the hall. I just couldn't wait to see her. Ever since the day of the interrogation, I've never had time to spare with her. As soon as I came into view, I saw Anna standing with her back against me. She seemed to have noticed that I was coming, and so she turned around to face me with a smile on.“Anna!” I said, chuckling happily. “Luna, it's nice to see you again and well.”I quickly rushed over to her and captured her in a warm embrace. “How I've missed you these long weeks.”“And so did I?” Anna replied, happily. “Come with me,” I stayed while taking a hold of Anna as I led her to my room happily. The moment we were in my room, Anna suddenly raised a brow at me. “What now?” I asked with a smile.“You live here?”“Sure I do,” I stated as I prepared the refreshments Patricia brought into the room. “Why do you ask?” “Because you are Luna and I thought you would be… Never mind.”I raised my brow, trying to figure out what Anna was trying
*****Gina's POV*****“She probably could be, you never know.”“I don't think so. I mean, she has no such dubious reason to want to eradicate my pack simply because my dad got married to his mate?”“Gina, don't be naive, please?”“Have you forgotten why Diane wanted you dead? It's not like you stole her man, rather she was the one who stole your man. Lied against you in so many ways and made you suffer for the things you never did. If Diane could do such to you and still try to kill you. Do you think Mrs. Margaret could have gotten a concrete reason why she wanted your whole pack wiped out?”I shivered when Anna analyzed the possible reason for my pack's fall. If this was the case, am I truly one step away from the enemy. “Gina, you said it yourself. Those masked men saved them, and Mrs. Margaret seemed to know them. What do you think this means? You should be careful from now on. I don't think this is right at all. The last thing I ever want to see is for you to get hurt.”“I'll try
*******Diane's POV*****“Mother, I don't think I understand what you're trying to say. ““Come in, Diane, I understand that you are clouded with revenge now, but I don't want you to get hurt.”“Why will I get hurt? Alpha Dexter has promised to help me, do I don't think I have any reason to be worried now.”“Goodness! Why do you only believe what that man says? What about me, why don't you believe what I say?”“Of course I believe you, mom. If I did not believe you, I wouldn't be here in the first place. But to be honest, you know that he's the man with the soldiers, and by doing so, he's currently the only one who could help me.”“Look, I understand what you're trying to say, but I don't feel good about this. Don't listen to everything he tells you to.”I stared at my mom weirdly. I don't understand where she was headed. “Mom? Is there something going on that I don't know about? I mean, at first, you were alright with the fact that I wanted to take my revenge. If I'm not mistaken, Al
*****Gina's POV****Getting to my former pack with my rightful mate, I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face. This was because we've had so many encounters here and yet, this was the first time we were actually coming as mates. The next second, I was filled with tears. I wished my parents were still alive and everyone of the pack members were still here. I'm sure the pack would have been so busy by now. Not only that, I could imagine just how happy the pack members will be when they finally see me and Cain walking into the pack. My mom would have lit up in excitement and come over to embrace me, telling me just how much she had missed me. My dad would have come as well. He would have called me his baby and probably whisked Cain away, so they could have done Alpha discussion. I wished this were how it had been. How happy I would have been. “Love, you're crying,” I snapped out of my imaginative world, taking a glance at Cain with tears filled eyes. He stared at me with
*****Alpha Cain's POV****I paced around the room as pack doctor Nancy examined Gina. I could tell that she had become weak since she had the vision for a long time. “Tell me, doctor, will she be okay?”Nancy took a deep breath. “She's quite exhausted, but nothing out of the ordinary. All she needs is lots of rest and thereafter, I'm sure she will be as good as new.”I heaved a deep sigh of relief. Good thing she will be okay soon. “However, Alpha Cain, you don't look good. I could see exhaustion written in your eyes, and you seemed worried as well. I think you need to rest.”“I will, but I want to be sure that my mate is out of danger.”“She is out of danger. You should care for yourself now, you know. Furthermore, I could tell just how much you care for her. Indeed, she's your rightful mate.”I tried to build a warm smile for Nancy.“You know I haven't thanked you enough for what you did. If it weren't for you, I'm sure I would have still been in the dark. Good thing you told me
***Gina's POV***I narrated the whole story to the crowd, and they all stared at me in awe. “Now let's discuss the reason there are two Lunas. The witch made a blood ritual with my face, and cloned my sister here, to have the same face as me. This way she could get into the pack and be with the Alpha and also be a spy for the enemies.”“That's not true! She's a liar!”“Uhm, excuse me to come in on this,” Fox said as he walked over to where I stood. “Though I still have no idea who the Luna is among you two, but Alpha, I've been meaning to report an issue, and since this issue ve up, I think it's best to report it now.”“What's that about, Fox?” Cain asked with a confused expression. “When you left, I noticed some strange movements about Luna. At first, she got into your office in the middle of the night, though she gave an explanation which I understood. Some nights, later, Anna also saw her leave the pack at midnight.”“Yes, Alpha. She left the pack at night and stayed out for som
****Gina's POV****The war became so hectic that everyone almost lost it, bleeding profusely, even though the people we were up against were indeed worthy opponents. We fought to our last breaths. I stood in front of the witch while I grabbed her by the throat. “You've always talked down on me even 10000 years ago and now. You tortured me and almost made me lose my child. Did you think these things I will forgive? Then you must not know me.”The witch, whose powers had been exhausted, didn't say a word. “Well, since you wouldn't speak, it means there's nothing left of you. Moreover, I would like to see what you look like, since you've always been in a mask,” I dragged the mask off her face, and there was a shrinking old lady with a decaying face. I shut my eyes instantly as I couldn't stand just how hideous she looked.“It is quite a pity that you were unable to preserve your skin. I bet every other part of your body has begun to decay. Let me guess, you started decaying the moment
***Gina's POV****I made preparations with the Alpha of the new pack I was in. “Alpha Zane, you don't really have to come with me. I can do this on my own.”“Don't say that now, Scarlet Witch. It is my honor to work with you. Please do not refuse my help.”I can't refuse him anyway. But then I have to make an important decision. And that is to either go to the witch or to my mate. I couldn't go to my mate because I didn't want him to get confused. Going to him now will only mean I'll have to prove myself. I have that much time left to prove myself to him, rather the time I have is to get rid of witch Zelda for good. She has lived for far too long. Before going on my mission, I decided to pay a visit to my son, who was with Reina. During the times I've been in training, Reina had been the one taking care of Leon. Since she still hasn't gotten a pup of her own, she takes care of Leon like he was her son. The only thing she came to me for was When he needed to be fed. “Reina, I'll be
****Alpha Cain's POV***I'm quickly asked to see Fox immediate, I need all the men that I can get. “Alpha, you sent for me.”“Fox, I require some men, the battle with our enemies will start soon. I know we've never really gone on a head - on battle with any Pack, aside from the fact that they tried attacking us twice. This time, we are not going to let them strike first because we will be the ones striking first. “This is good news, then, Alpha. I can't wait for us to finally deal with these enemies who have been trying to get us down. But Alpha, have you any idea who the traitor is among your trusted allies?”“Of course, I found the culprit. And you wouldn't believe it.”“Who among them is the real enemy?”“It's one of your most trusted Alphas.”“Shit! How on earth did he become one of the trusted allies?”“It beats me up to this very moment. I had no idea how I got deceived by him.”“Since that's the case, after mobilizing our men, what will be our next step?”“Our next step is to
****Gina's POV***I stood in front of the black Box. At this point, I was so sure about what I'm about to do.”“Gina, do you need me to be here with you?”“I took a glance at Reina and smiled at her. You don't have to Reina. I need to do this on my own. All I ask is that you take care of my boy until I'm done with what I'm about to do.”“You have nothing to worry about if that's the case. Your son is very well safe with me and will always be safe with me. You should do your thing. I promise we'll all be waiting for you patiently for your return,”With that, she shut the door, leaving me in the dark room with the box. Before standing in front of the box I trained for over a month. I cannot delay the process anymore. The mistakes I made in the past cost me dearly, I cannot make another mistake this time. Standing in front of the box, I slowly placed my hands on it and shut my eyes, but all of a sudden, I was thrown off to the wall by the immense power from the box. What was that? I s
*****Alpha Dexter's POV***I paced from one end of the room to the other. I can't imagine things going south. We all had our plans well sorted out, but how the hell did Cain find out about Dorian?As soon as Dorian walked in, I quickly walked over to meet him. “What's going on, Dorian? Do you have any idea what happened?”“Huh? I don't know what you mean. I just came back from meeting with the rogues to give them their reward as promised. “Shit! You should have informed me before going?”“Alpha Dexter, did something happen, perhaps?”“Yes, you were spotted by Alpha Cain's men. Do you know what this means? We are done for. All of our plans I'm afraid will go down the drain.”“It won't, I promise I will rectify whatever suspicion the Alpha might have on me.”“You think Cain is stupid? He already suspects you and the others. Since he was able to find out, this simply means that he must have been keeping tracks of you all. This was just the best opportunity, and you got caught in the ac
***Anna's POV***The moment I managed to pull away from the kiss, which took almost forever, I glared at him and screamed loud. “What the hell is wrong with you, Fox?”“Huh? You, of course. I kept trying to pass the message, but you weren't giving me a listening ear, so I thought this was the best way-”“Don't even start with me. What happened to confronting me and telling me whether you were attracted to me or not? What's with forcing your lips on mine, damn it!”“Let me understand this, Anna, are you perhaps mad at the kiss or mad at the fact that I didn't propose my feelings to you formally?”I darted my gaze from place to place. At this point, I don't even know why I was mad. Why was I?I took a quick glance at him only to see him watching me curiously and probably waiting for answers from me. “You know what, I'm not going to stay here one more minute to listen to your questions,” just as I placed my hands on the door knob, Fox quickly locked the door and took the keys into his
****Anna's POV***“Miss Anna, don't you think you've been coming rather frequently. I mean, I'm not the Alpha.”“What's wrong with you? You should at least hear what I have to say before you jump to conclusions, you know.”“Oh, I'm jumping to conclusions?”“Well, just in case you haven't noticed, that's what you've been doing whenever I come to you. Or do you perhaps have a thing for me?”I asked with a creased brow. Fox immediately let out a slight cough, which confused me. “What's wrong?”“Goodness! What goes into that head of yours? I mean, why would I have a thing for you in the first place?”“Well, I have no idea. Yours actions keep confusing me, so you can't blame me for thinking that way,”“Trust me, there's nothing like that,” he said while staring deep in my eyes as if he were searching for Something. I cleared my throat quickly. For some reason, his gaze made me uncomfortable. “So tell me, why are you here?”Now that he's come back to being serious, I quickly walked over
***Diane's POV****The moment it was the middle of the night, I quickly dressed up and wore a dark cloak which hid my face. I needed to get out of the pack to pass my message, and the only way I could do that was this time of the night. The witch had earlier informed me to call on her if I had anything to report to her. At this point, there's a lot she needed to know about. Starting with the fact that Alpha Cain had found a lead which I do not know about. And also the fact that Anna had come to stay with me. I knew she was going to keep a close watch on me all through the day. That's why the best time to do this was in the middle of the night. When I know she wouldn't have the time to watch over me. I passed through the place Anna had earlier shown me to be our hideout. This was better than when I had to go through the pack house. If truly I was able to get through to the witch using the hideout, that simply means this will be my new route. The other which I used was quite risky an
