The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 67: Another Point of View
Lance came out from behind a bush and stared at Violet without saying anything.In the mean time, in a space of split seconds, Violet considered her options.She didn't want to wait to see if he was there to attack her again, so she tried to think about how she could get out of there and return safely to the mansion.Otherwise, she would have to fight him, and she wasn't in the mood for that.The day was too good to be true, she thought. Realizing what Violet was doing, Lance stretched his hands in front of him as a sign of surrender, and looked inside her eyes."I'm not gonna do anything to you. I just wanna talk." She raised her brows at him, suspicious."Talk? What could you possibly have to talk to me? Are you here to ambush me or what? Who else is with you?" she said looking around, trying to sense if there was someone else there, hiding and waiting to attack her when she was inattentive."I swear I didn't come to attack you. I'm also hiding from them. Violet, all I ask is that
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 68: A Possible Alliance
Violet felt such a relief by hearing those words, that for the first time, she believed that something could go back to what it was.If it was her friendship and brotherhood with Lance, she was more than willing to accept it.Maybe they could work on their relationship, and he could stop having those stupid ideas of marrying her. He could be happy with whoever he wanted to.He could even find his mate.That idea made her really excited.Suddenly, she remembered of something, and she couldn't believe that she had forgotten about it while talking to him.Violet felt that joy vanishing from her chest.Lance was really good with words, and she completely forgot the threat that was hanging over her head."Wait!" she got up in a leap, getting defensive again. Lance widened his eyes at her, confused and scared."What?""I… How could I forget about this? I received a letter from Arden two days ago. And you were seen around here too. It was you, wasn't it?"Lance looked completely lost."A let
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 69: Instincts
Violet returned home in a rush, but remembered that Jack wasn't going to be there when she arrived.He said it could take a while to solve the issue in the outskirts, so she would have to wait.She was getting really anxious while waiting for him, and she went through the conversation she had with Lance on her mind several times, to make sure she didn't let anything skip her judgement.She was feeling well, she didn't feel in her guts that she had to suspect him. For the first time, she could say that her instincts were telling her the right thing.Lance was a very honest man. She had never had a conversation with him where he didn't say the truth to her face, even though he knew she could get hurt by what he had to say.He liked to be straightforward, and even though he could be lying to her, giving all the facts and events happening lately, Violet still believed when he said he was by their side.But she knew Jack wasn't going to believe that. And she would have to be firm and make h
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 70: Sign of the End?
Violet got a little offended by his observation.She didn't like to remember that she was fooled by Gwen's true character.Maybe she wasn't fooled. Gwen could've changed after the latest events. It was not like she was someone bad her entire life."Gwen fooled all of us. Not even Lance saw what she did coming."Jack clenched his jaw. Violet could feel he was trying his hardest not to make a harsh comment towards her.And he was drinking too fast. That was worrying her."Jack, look at me." she said, coming closer to him. "Can't you trust me? You were the one scolding me last time for not trusting you, and now you can't even believe me when I tell you he wasn't lying.""It's not about believing you or not, Violet. Don't try to compare you hiding from me a threatening letter and me not believing that Lance has changed." he got away from her as soon as her hand touched his face.Jack turned his back to her and returned to look outside of the window.Maybe the comparison she did was really
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 71: Sorry Again
Violet got back to her room, leaving Jack behind with his internal conflict.Even if he tried to do what Violet wanted, he wouldn't be able to look at Lance's face without feeling jealous.He knew it was a childish action, but he couldn't help it.Lance was raised by Violet's side and he would be a constant reminder of what she once had. Her family, her pack, everything.And even though she had said she loved Jack and wanted to be with him, he still felt a little guilty for her leaving everything behind because of him.He didn't want to tell Violet what to do or anything like that. He knew she had been through that her entire life, and if he didn't want to do one thing, was to boss her around like she said.Jack lost track of how many glasses of whisky he had taken before feeling completely dizzy. Even his thoughts didn't make sense anymore after some time.The pain on his heart to feel Violet escaping through his fingers made him decide to go after her.He didn't care that it was too
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 72: Tricked
A week passed incredibly fast for Violet.And when she suddenly realized, it was already the day she agreed to meet Lance in the woods again.She was going to tell him that he could come to the mansion under the condition that he would be watched the whole time until Jack could finally trust him.And that would take a long time from what she could tell.The problem Jack had with Lance was increased because of what Lance could mean to their relationship. Jack felt that he could be a threat to them, even though it made no sense at all to her.She didn't want to marry Lance even before meeting Jack. Now that option was even more out of the table.But he didn't seem to care about that. And the fact that Lance also tried to attack her and was from the Diamond Pack made Jack very suspicious of his true intentions.But since she had agreed to trust her instincts, Lance would have the benefit of the doubt.With Jack and the others watching him closely the whole time, it was going to be really
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 73: Surprising Visit
Violet considered waking Jack, but he seemed to be in such a deep sleep, that she didn't want to disturb him.He should be really exhausted, and she could wait to know what happened.Her entire body was sore and she noticed a bandage around her ribs, and she soon remembered being kicked several times there. It also hurt when she breathed.She lost track of how many ribs she had broken in these surprising attacks. Good thing her wolf self healed her fast.After a few minutes, a nurse came to offer her something to eat, and Jack awakened with the movement."Oh, God, you woke up!" he got up and pulled her in a tight hug."Ouch… Jack, my ribs!" Violet complained while still hugging him."I'm sorry… I really thought I was going to lose you this time." he said with sad eyes."I'm not that easy to get rid of. What happened anyway?" she wanted to know. "How long have I been sleeping?""Three days." Violet widened her eyes in shock.Then she noticed how exhausted and pale Jack looked. "What?"
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 74: Rising Power
"Do you really think Arden has a spy here?" Violet asked still in disbelief."That's what Jack seems to think from the letter he wrote you. He asked me to look into it." Morgana said."And did you find anything?" "Not yet. But Jack is being extra careful in sharing confidential information to the pack, since it could be anyone." Violet nodded, still trying to digest that."You do know what happens to spies here, right?" Morgana asked with concerned eyes.Violet shook her head again in confirmation, not wanting to think about that.She was actually concerned about how in danger she could be. And Jack. Or anyone actually, although she thought that Arden wouldn't kill innocent people to get to her.He made clear that he wanted her to pay for what she did, so the main targets were her and Jack.Was Lance really helping him, after all Arden had done to his family? Could he really be so cold-hearted to set a trap to Violet?"Anyway, I have to go. You should rest more, you look awful. I'll

The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 100: Time Of Our Lives
It was their fourth trip to celebrate their wedding anniversary, and Jack had decided to spend it in a place with snow that year.He also wanted to show Violet and the kids something called Aurora Borealis, something that she had never heard of, but Jack said they'd love it.It was one of the most incredible things he had seen with his father as a child, and he wanted to show it to her and the children.Charles was four years now, and they had one little girl who was about to turn two called Adele. Every year, they would go in an adventure to celebrate their wedding anniversary, and Jack was very committed in fulfilling his promise to take Violet to know the world.And she was more than happy to do it with their family. Charles was the apple of her eye, while Adele was a true daddy's girl.Their family was much more than she could've ever asked for.They had chosen Lucinda and Lance to be the godparents of Charles. They were also married now and had a little girl called Louise, to who
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 99: Unpredictable Discovery
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 98: Wedding Preparations
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 97: A Hopeful Future
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 96: The Next Day
"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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 95: Facing the Consequences
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 94: Cold Confrontation
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 93: The Hidden Room
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
The Alpha's Prisoner Chapter 92: The Last Move
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. Even Jack was having a great bond with him, something that Violet made sure to teas
