MOLLY'S POVHow exactly did Yaz plan to take over the pack? Kylian had left it in Cole's hands. Yaz was the Beta. Sure, he had power but planning to take the throne from Cole was a long stretch. I was intrigued and confused at the same time. I looked at the document again, going through the things he promised. The sight of the money alone was enough for me to say yes. "Molly," he said smoorhly "You know this is your chance. You’ve always wanted to remain as the Luna, haven’t you?"I looked at him "Yes, I have. But... this plan of yours. It’s dangerous. What if it doesn’t work? What if something goes wrong?"Yaz smiled confidently "It will work. It has to. I’ve thought this through. Once I have control of the pack, nothing can stop us. And you, my dear, will be by my side, ruling as my Luna."His words sent a shiver down my spine. It was so tempting, so within reach. But the risks were high. " How do you plan to take over the pack?" I asked him. "I've thought this through for year
MOLLY'S POV Throughout the night, I thought of Yaz's proposal. I thought of the possibility that I might be able to seduce Kane and get Yaz what he wants. I wondered if I could really do it. Before I decided, I wanted to talk to Lady Esther first. Marrying Cole wasn't the main point. I needed to know what benefits I would get from marrying him. I took a deep breath as I stood in front of Lady Esther's chambers. This conversation was important, and I needed to approach it carefully. The outcome of this conversation would determine everything. I straightened my back,, smoothed my dress, and knocked on the door."Who is it?" she asked. I cleared my throat "It's Molly" "Enter,". I stepped into the room. Lady Esther sat by the window, staring outside. She turned to face me as I walked closer to her. I bowed my head "Good day, Lady Esther" "Molly," she said with a smile "What brings you here?""Lady Esther," I said "I want to talk about my marriage to Cole" She waved her hand dism
THIRD PERSON'S POVThe sun hasn't risen fully in the Wolferius pack before the elders gathered in the grand hall for a meeting. The meeting was called for one purpose - to find a solution to the problems in their pack and for Cole to step up as Alpha. The pack was in a state of problems and there was no Alpha to step up to take care of their problems. Cole had been too scared to take up the role of Alpha. He never wanted it in the first place. Being Alpha wasn't the life he imagined for himself. The workload coupled with the responsibilities was too much to bear. He wondered how Kylian did it. Kylian made Alpha look easy. He handled everything with no serious problems. It had been weeks since Kylian had left, leaving the pack without an Alpha. Cole had refused to take his place. Lady Esther did her best to force him but Cole just couldn't do it. He didn't k kw the first thing about pack politics. The elders called a meeting at the board room. They sat gathered in front of the long
COLE'S POVThe crowd looked at me expectantly. I was stunned. I only ran down here because I didn't want people to hurt themselves. What do I say? How exactly do I address a crowd? I looked at them, not knowing what to say or do. My heart rate increased. What I say now can either make me or break me. I took a deep breath and composed myself. I can do this. “People of Wolferius,” I said “I know that these past weeks have been difficult for all of us. The absence of an Alpha has left us vulnerable. But I want you to know that I am ready to help you all"A murmur of relief and approval filled the crowd.Skmeone shouted, “And what if you fail us? What if you can’t handle it?”The crowd fell silent. Fear gripped me tightly but I forced myself to stand tall. “I can’t promise that everything will be perfect,” I admitted. “But I can promise that I will do everything in my power to protect this pack and lead us to a better future”The crowd seemed to accept this, but I could see the doubt
LORRAINE'S POVThe next morning, I watched Kylian's sleeping form. He looked so peaceful while he slept. His breathing was shallow but even, at least. I watched as his chest rose and fell slowly. I had gotten the boys ready for school and taken them. Now that I was back, I wanted to take care of Kylian. He still hasn't feeling too well. I gathered the things that I needed to clean him up that morning—a basin of warm water, clean cloths, and fresh bandages. As I got his things ready, I still wondered how this happened. How did he really end up here? How could he have lost his memory? The strong and dominant Alpha I knee now lay vulnerable and unaware of his surroundings. The sight was both heartbreaking and confusing.I crouched down beside him and touched his chest. He still had a fever and his face was slightly pale. He looked so fragile like this. Setting the basin on the bedside table, I dipped a cloth into the warm water. As I gently wiped his forehead, I couldn't help but watc
LORRAINE'S POVThe scent of chicken soup filled the kitchen and the dining area as I set the table for lunch. Kylian sat at the table, looking around the house curiously. His eyes met mine, and he gave me a small smile."Thank you, Lorraine," he said softly. "You're welcome" I set his plate in front of him and took a seat. "I mean it" he said, looking at me "Thank you for everything. For taking care of me."I paused for a moment, taking in the intensity of his gaze "You're welcome, Kylian""I can't remember much, but from what I can see, I know you were the best wife anyone could ever have."His words stirred something inside me. For some reason, I felt emotional. In that moment, I remembered everything - the memories of our time together, the first day we met, the love we once shared. I felt a lump in my throat and quickly blinked back tears. It took every self restraint in me not to cry. Kylian reached for my hand on the table and squeezed. As we touched, I could feel sparks of
KYLIAN'S POVLater that night, I fell asleep. The kids and We had stayed up late, playing cards and other games. While I slept, I felt my body being shaken up by someone. It sounded a lot like Lorraine. Kylian," Lorraine whispered. "Kylian, wake up."I opened my eyes, looking at her. "Where are the boys?" she asked. .I looked around in confusion. Where were they? "They were here... we watched a movie together, and then... I must have fallen asleep. I thought they went to bed.""They're not in their rooms," she said "Kylian, we need to find them." "What?" As soon as she said those words, I started to feel worried. Where could they be? They were with me minutes ago. We searched every corner of the house and even looked outside. Still, we couldn't find them. A knot of anxiety began to form in my stomach. Panic rose in my chest by the minute as we kept searching the area. After a while, Neil's car pulled up at the driveway. He stormed out of the car angrily. Neil matched towards
LORRAINE'S POVAs soon as the sunlight came out, I woke up slipped out of bed, careful not to disturb Neil. His actions last night haunted me but I pushed them aside. I had more pressing matters to attend to. My boys were still missing, and Kylian was being wrongfully held. I needed answers, and I needed them now.I opened the front door and quietly left the house. The walk to the police station was a blur. My mind was racing, filled with fears and doubts. What if they hadn't found anything? What if Kylian was being mistreated?When I arrived at the station, I took a deep breath and walked in, trying to keep my composure. "I need to see Kylian," I told the officer at the front desk.He eyed me before nodding. "Follow me."As I followed him down the dark corridors, my heart sank in my chest. This was no place for Kylian. We stopped in front of a cell, and the officer unlocked the door, allowing me to enter."Kylian," I whispered. My heart broke as I saw him sitting on a bench. His f
