last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
Jack stormed out of the dungeon without looking back. Violet had a way to get on his nerves very easily.

Or maybe he was just frustrated that she was from the Diamond Pack.

It wasn't very hard to discover that. The dagger she was carrying with her had an unique format and the iron used to forge the blade was only possessed by them.

How could he be so unlucky to have a mate from the enemy pack?

He hated the Diamond Pack with all his might.

They had always been a very bad government, one that excluded the least privileged, took advantage of the poor, was corrupted and had a tyrannical and selfish leader.

When Jack joined the Rebels, he had no idea that they would choose him to be the leader one day.

He had joined them alongside his father, so since he was young, he always heard the stories about that stupid government, and how the Rebels lived to free the Crescent from their power.

That was a very reasonable and valid ideal to live by. Jack wanted to make their home a better place, but a

    Crying was something that Violet didn't normally experience, even though she was very emotional.But during her life, it was hard to remember a day that she cried because of something really sad.Now it was like all her emotions were too much for her to handle, and the fact that she didn't know how to behave in front of Jack was the last straw.When Jack stormed out of her cell, Violet let all her emotions kick in and when she realized, the tears were already running down her cheeks.Violet cried herself to sleep, exhausted and weak.Some time during the night - or was it the afternoon? - Violet woke up with a noise on the door, and when she opened her eyes, she saw two guards in front of her."Get up. We are taking you somewhere else." one of them said and Violet got up, still trying to make sense of what was happening.She did as they said and they got out of the cell."Where are you taking me?" she asked afraid, knowing that they would never answer a prisoner, specially one that tri

    Violet followed Jack through the hallways, turning here and there, until they reached his office.It was a very large and well organized room, which impressed Violet. He seemed to be a very responsible man and a neat Alpha.As she passed the door, she heard a click that she knew it came from the key.He had locked them up.She looked back surprised, since she didn't imagine such measure was necessary. He said no one was going to disturb them."Don't worry, I'm not gonna do anything to you." he said stopping in front of her. "As much as I wanted to." Jack continued to walk again, leaving Violet a bit disconcerted."But I need to make sure you won't do anything stupid, like trying to run away again. We need to get to an agreement, remember? So forgive me for not trusting you. I'm sure you know the feeling." he said stopping behind a chair, and only then Violet realized that there was a whole feast prepared for them.He did all that for her?There were all types of food on the table and

    Violet went back to her room escorted by Jack. She didn't say another word after he advised her to think about what she wanted.Her head was hurting again from thinking too much.What would her life turn out to be now? She didn't have much faith that Arden would be successful in rescuing her. But until that happened, she couldn't go on with her mission. Even if she was able to kill Jack, she was trapped inside the mansion, with all eyes upon her.She would never escape. So they would be both dead in the end.Now she was starting to think about Arden's plans. She didn't give much thought about his motives when he summoned her to do it.She just knew that Jack wasn't a good man, but why kill him? What exactly did he do against Arden that made the man want to kill him?Maybe staying inside the mansion, living with the Rebels, would give Violet a better perspective about their ways of living.Maybe she could be able to understand why Arden wanted to eliminate Jack.And she would have mo

    Morgana led Violet to a very large room with twelve chairs placed as a circle.The seats were already filled with people and Violet felt very intimidated. At one of the chairs was Jack, looking at her with enigmatic eyes. Violet felt a cold in her spine.Morgana took the only empty seat and left Violet alone in the middle of the circle, like a criminal being judged. Which she was.Jack got up on his feet and started talking. "We all know why we are gathered here, so I'll skip the introductions. This woman was caught with a dagger from the Diamond Pack on her and everything indicates that she came here to kill me." That made sense to Violet now. So he discovered that she was from the Diamond Pack because of her dagger. She knew the object was in his possession, but how could he tell that it was from the Diamond Pack? What gave it away? But she didn't have much time to think about that because her future was being decided in front of her eyes. She had to pay attention to every single

    Jack walked to where Violet was and stopped in front of her."Well, I guess everything went on smoothly. You're safe for now.""Am I?" Violet said sarcastically. "I don't see how I can be safe working for people that hate me."Jack raised his brows at her."You're gonna work for me, and I don't remember saying that I hated you." he said."You know what I mean…" Violet continued. "But since that's my only option now, I think I should thank you for saving my life." "That's more like it." Jack concluded with a satisfying smile. "So, like I said, you're going to work for me now. Be my personal assistant, if we can call it that.""And what exactly do you want me to do as your personal assistant, Mr. Morde?" Violet rolled her eyes, something that Jack ignored."You'll just do some errands for me, bring me food when I'm too busy, accompany me in meetings, that type of stuff." he explained. "Meetings? What type of meetings?" Violet asked curious."The type we have on packs. Have you never be

  • The Alpha's Prisoner   Chapter 16: Bringing Back the Wolf

    Violet stayed inside Jack's office for the whole morning. It turned out that the meeting wasn't very important. He just talked with a few members from the pack about some harvest that went wrong and they lost a lot of food.It impressed Violet how Jack was good with his words and was able to comfort the members from his pack.He was actually a very nice leader.Violet couldn't take her eyes off him for the whole meeting, trying to pretend she wasn't interested at all every time their glances crossed.When she was going to the kitchen to return the tray of his lunch, Violet bumped into someone on the hallway, dropping all the silverware and making a huge mess."I'm so sorry!" Violet kept repeating as she squatted down to catch everything and clean the carpet. "I didn't see you coming, it was my fault.""I should know something like that would happen because of someone like you." the person's voice came from above Violet's head, as she was still on the floor cleaning up everything.That

    Her heart started to beat fast again, making Violet want to throw up. She wasn't ready to face him yet.Hearing him say horrible things to her face wasn't something she was prepared for.She would rather he just killed her instead.Violet opened the door with her trembling hands, and Jack stormed inside.After closing it, she turned to face him, but couldn't look up. She couldn't stare into his eyes."I don't even know where to begin." his voice sounded angry, but at the same time sad. Violet couldn't figure out why.Maybe he was upset that she hurt someone he cared about.Didn't that Kate said something about him being hers?That was also part of the reason why Violet wanted to punch her so badly."Violet, look at me!" he yelled, scaring Violet.She raised her head, preparing herself for the way he was going to look at her. She couldn't stand those beautiful eyes staring at her with contempt.But that didn't happen. He was looking at her like he was in pain. Violet almost frowned."Wh

    Violet woke up on the next day feeling really weird.She had a lot of nightmares about her dying, and also a few dreams with Jack. Those wore even worst than the nightmares.The conversation they had on the previous night felt very genuine and sincere to Violet.She kind of felt a little more relieved after she explained some things to him.She didn't know how things would turn out to be from that moment on, but the fact that he seemed to believe her was more than enough.But it was getting very hard to resist him. Violet was having dirty dreams every night with him, and even during the day.Jack caught her daydreaming twice during the first hours of the day, and Violet was very thankful that he couldn't read her mind. She was really embarrassed for thinking those things.A few people from the Rebels started to look differently at her after Kate's attack. Apparently the fight had gotten to their ears. But it wasn't as bad as she expected it to be.From what Lucinda told when she brough

    The news about the wedding had spread like fire in wood.Morgana made sure to put everyone to help with the preparations, from decoration to food, so the Rebels' members were pretty busy.Violet didn't imagine that organizing a wedding would be so nerve-wracking, and she was feeling sick most of the time.Morgana had accepted to be her bridesmaid, alongside Lucinda, of course. Jack asked Lance to be one of his best men as well, which surprised Violet's brother as much as herself.Lucinda and Lance had finally started a relationship, and Lucinda was splitting her time between the Diamond Pack and the Rebels, which made Violet really happy.Her friend had arranged the perfect wedding dress for Violet, one that she loved more than anything.She couldn't wait to put that on and dance the whole night feeling like a princess out of a fairy tale, because that's how she was feeling.Everything was good. Violet was finally feeling happy.Jack, on the other hand, looked extremely anxious as the

    Violet decided to go back to the mansion, since Lance had too much to do in the Diamond Pack, and she wouldn't be any helpful to him. She also didn't wait for Lucinda, since she had no idea how long their conversation would last.But deep down, she was dying to know every detail from it.Right after leaving the palace, she noticed how the members of the Diamond Pack seemed much happier and satisfied by the outcome of their fight.A lot of them reached out to her and Jack on the way out, to thank them for doing what they did.She didn't know how to react to that, since she didn't feel like she deserved all that credit. It was true that she had helped all that take place in the first place, but for her it felt kind of an obligation to do the right thing.Violet also saw the walls being destroyed by the guards of the Diamond Pack and a lot of volunteers.She finally felt at peace, knowing that she'd probably never see those bricks being put their again.Lance was the best decision for th

    Violet wasn't sure if she had listened correctly."Exiled?" she repeated.Lance nodded, but asked her and Jack to follow him to an empty room next to his office."I didn't want anyone to listen to this yet. I still didn't make the official announcement to the pack. I also need to go throw the coronation ceremony first, so…" Lance started closing the door. "I talked to the council and they wanted Gwen to rot in jail. Some of them even wanted her to be killed for her treason, since she teamed up and even colluded with a fugitive." Violet felt a shivering in her spine."But I suggested that she would be exiled from the Crescent instead, as a form of punishment for what she did. I tried to use the argument that she might had felt coerced to do all of that since Arden was her father, and she was never prepared to be an Alpha after all.""And they accepted just like that?" Violet asked."Of course not. It took me a while to convince them that she doesn't offer us any threat. They agreed to

    "They did what?" Violet asked feeling excited and sad at the same time.She was extremely proud and happy for him, after all, it was something Lance was expecting since he was young.It was also the best option for the Diamond Pack to be finally the pack it deserved. Violet was more than sure that Lance would be an amazing leader, without such things as walls, war for power, and forbidding laws in his government.But at the same time, she knew that it could only mean one thing."So, you're coming back to live here, right? You won't stay with us at the mansion anymore." Violet felt Jack's hand grabbing hers as a sign of comforting.She suddenly felt a lump on her throat."I don't know. I… I'm not thinking clearly at the moment, so… I asked them to give an answer tomorrow. I think we should all rest a bit after tonight, right?" Lance answered.She let go of Jack's hand and crossed the hall, eager to give Lance a hug.Wrapping her arms around his neck, Violet gave him an embrace full of

    It took Violet a while to make sense of everything that had happened.When she finally realized that Arden wasn't alive anymore, she took a deep breath and put her hand in the part of her head that had been hit.A lot of blood was coming out of it, but she didn't care.Lance looked extremely hopeless after finishing his mission, and even though Violet knew he wanted to take revenge on the man, Lance wasn't a violent person.So he should be going through an internal conflict for sure.But it was Gwen who was catching their full attention now.The woman had ran to her father's body and collapsed on top it, crying and screaming compulsively.Violet felt really bad for her, but at the same time, a low voice inside her head kept saying that Gwen was now experiencing the same thing that she and Lance had experienced when they were just kids.She didn't want to sound cold and insensitive by saying that, so she kept the thought to herself.Lance came by Violet's side as they both kept staring

    Violet could feel her legs trembling and her hands sweating like she was about to get hanged.Seeing how tense she was, Lance grabbed her hand and pulled her in the direction of that door.It was like the hallway had extended to twice its size.As much as they walked forward, they never seemed to reach their destination.That was a terrible idea, Violet then realized.What if Arden wasn't there?Or even worse, what if he was?What would they do? What would they say to him?Would Lance let the man even speak before killing him?Did she want him to say anything though?For months, she hoped not to see Arden's face never again. She wanted to turn that page, forget he was ever a part of her life.But they would never be in peace with Arden at loose, threatening her and her loved ones, and making the Diamond Pack a terrible place to live.They had to put an end to it.With the other hand, Lance reached the doorknob and twisted it, pulling the door forward.Violet thought she would see Arden

    Violet noticed that the palace was invaded as quicker as a tsunami wiping away everything ahead.One minute they were entering it alone, and on the next, a lot of the members that went with them were inside the building, making sure the guards didn't stop the three of them.Violet saw Lucinda fighting two men at once, Mark and Fiona putting some wood to lock the door, and Dave helping to take someone out of Lance's way.She didn't know what to do. She was supposed to follow Lance to the hidden room, but suddenly the main lobby of the palace was crowded and full of people and wolves fighting.Violet made one woman that tried to hit her levitate and tossed her on the other side of the room with a bump against the wall.Lance also got involved in an one-on-one battle with someone Violet didn't recognize, but something caught her attention at that same moment.Jack was being attacked by three men and two wolves. He was surrounded by them. Somehow he managed to distance himself from her an

    Violet saw the days pass with Jack contacting a lot of the Rebels' allies and telling them about his plan.Violet was barely sleeping with the anticipation for their attack, and she was also waiting for something bad to happen in between, since Arden's threat.The construction of the walls of the Diamond Pack were going strong, and she worried that it would be already done once they left for the mission, which was only going to make things harder for them.She tried to distract herself by talking nonsense with Lucinda and also going for a jog in the mornings, but nothing seemed to take the imminent fight from her mind.She and Jack were finally well, although she barely had time to be with him alone. He was always working and making sure everything was okay for the battle, so she tried to commit with helping him as much as she could.Lance was also doing great in the Rebels.Everyone seemed to love him.
