Laura's POV

I sat on the couch in the living room, scrolling through my phone, waiting for Alexander to come home. It had been days since we had a proper conversation, and I was getting tired of it. It felt like he was always busy with work, and whenever he was home, he would just be on his phone, answering emails or reading articles.

As the front door opened, my heart fluttered with anticipation. Alexander walked in, taking off his coat and throwing it onto the rack. "Hey," he said, giving me a small smile.

"Hey," I replied, trying not to sound too annoyed.

He walked over to the kitchen, pouring himself a glass of water. "How was your day?" he asked, still not looking directly at me.

"It was fine," I said, twirling my hair around my finger. "But I just feel like we haven't spent much time together lately."

Alexander sighed, leaning against the counter. "I know, and I'm sorry. Work has been crazy lately, and I haven't had much time for anything else."

I nodded, feeling a pang of disap

    Laura's POV I was sitting on the porch on the balcony enjoying the cool breeze while taking my turn of the watch Alexander placed us on when I noticed someone move swiftly from the backyard into the woods. At first, I thought it was one of the pack members, but the way this person moved was just too sneaky and swift. I rushed into the house, and I caught Alexander's eye. He was sitting with some members of the pack, talking and laughing. I approached him, my heart pounding in my chest. "Alex, I think someone just snuck into the woods," I said, trying to keep my voice low. "What do you mean?" he asked, his expression serious. "I saw someone move into the woods from the backyard," I explained. "We need to go after them." Alexander didn't hesitate. He stood up, and several members of the pack followed suit. I felt relieved that they were taking me seriously. For a moment, I felt like maybe I was overreacting, but seeing the looks on their faces, I knew I wasn't. We made our way to

    Alexander's POV I had always been vigilant since the first attempt on Laura. It was part of the reasons why I placed everyone on taking turns to watch the house.. The people had been as sharp as a razor, and she had a keen eye for anything suspicious. So, when she came to me and raised the alarm that she saw someone, I didn't doubt for a second that she had picked up something. That's why I headed towards the east wing with some pack members to check for any movements before heading for the woods to see if everything was alright. I too everyone and we rushed to the woods to see if we can still catch up with the people who came around and we did catch up with them, but they ran away before we could even get a chance to ask them anything or do anything to them. When we couldn't get anything tangible ransacking the woods, I asked everyone to head back to the house. When we got to the house, the house was too quiet, too quiet for my liking. There was an eerie silence that seemed to lin

    Annabelle's POVMy conscience judged me several times, many nights, that I barely slept without dreaming about Laura dying in a pool of blood and telling me it was my fault. I had set time to meet with her when somehow I dozed off due to my lack of sleep for the past few days.I woke up in a daze, my mind foggy and my body heavy. I quickly checked my phone and saw that I had slept for two hours longer than I intended. Panic shot through me as I realized that I was supposed to meet Laura an hour ago to warn her about Clara and Dominique.I was planning to confess every other thing to her and let her know I was part of the reasons their lives was in danger.My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. It was Laura. "Hey, Annabelle, where are you? You should be here by now." she said."Uh, yeah, I'm almost there," I lied. "I just got a little held up."“Are you okay?" She sounded worried.“Oh, yes. I'm okay, I'm okay. Don't worry." I replied her, assuringly."Okay, no w

Panic bubbled up inside me and my heart began racing. Who could it be?I tried to push the anxiety down and focus, but something was off. It's like my body had completely forgotten how to shift. Panic turned to desperation as I tried and tried again, but nothing worked. I was stuck in my human form as whoever had entered the house came closer and closer to me.My mind went into overdrive as I tried to think of a plan. Should I confront these strangers as a human? Or try to hide until I could shift again? Before I could make a decision, the strangers appeared in front of me.I was face-to-face with a group of werwolves who had broken into our house.

    Dominique's POVI stood on the porch of Alexander's house, the sunlight reflecting off my dark fur as I surveyed the aftermath of the battle. The scent of blood and smoke filled the air, a sickening mixture that left a bitter taste in my mouth.Behind me, my pack members were busy scavenging the area, claiming whatever resources they could find. It was a good haul - Alexander's pack had been strong for a while, but they were no match for us this time. With the pack dead, it was easy to take over their territory.I licked my lips, savoring the taste of victory. It had been a long time coming - Alexander and his pack had been king since the days of his father till his father hang over to him. for months. But now, he was gone, and everything he had was mine.“Dominique,” I heard someone call out. I turned to see my second-in-command, Ryan, approaching me. “We've searched the area and even deep into the woods, but we can't find Alexander or Laura.”My ears perked up at the mention of Laur

    Clara's POVI didn't know what to do when Dominique asked me to run away before the fight. I mean, I knew I had betrayed my pack by sharing our secrets with him and his rogue werewolves, but I wasn't comfortable backing out from the fight when I was mainly the brain behind it. It showed me more reason why I have to be an alpha of my own and detach myself from all these male superiority. I decided to hide instead, to see how things would turn out.From the shadows, I watched as my former pack engaged in battle with Dominique and his rogue werewolves. It was brutal and bloody, but I was surprised at how well my pack was holding up. They may have been outnumbered, but they were fierce and determined.Dominique, on the other hand, was wild and unhinged. He attacked with reckless abandon, not caring who he hurt or killed in the process. I felt a pang of regret for ever trusting him, but I knew it was only a matter of time before I take him out and run things my way.As the fight progressed

    Alexander's POVI sat opposite Laura, watching her as she stared off into space, lost in her own thoughts. I had hoped that our journey back to the hideout would have given her time to process the events that had just transpired, but from the looks of it, she was still in shock.I sighed and leaned forward, placing a hand on her shoulder. "Laura, come back to me. I know it's hard, but I need you to be here with me, please babe." I said softly.Laura turned her head slightly to look at me, tears still rolling down her cheeks. "I can't believe she's gone. I can't believe it's all over," she whispered hoarsely."I know, love. I know," I said, my heart aching for her. "But you have to remember that Annabelle died a hero. She gave her life trying to save you, and she almost saved us in the process."Laura shook her head, disbelief and grief etched on her face. "I know, but it still doesn't make it any easier, how will I even tell my parent?" she whispered.I scooted closer to her and wrapp

    I knew he had a point, but I couldn't help feeling disappointed. "But Liam, I can protect myself. And I want to be part of the pack's success," I explained.Mike sighed, his eyes filled with concern. "I understand that, Laura, but we need someone to stay back, and that someone is you. Alexander trusts me to keep you safe while he's gone, and I can't let him down."I could see determination written all over Mike's face, and I knew that it was pointless to argue with him. However, deep down, I still wished I could go with the others.I sprang to my feet and started scanning the room for my things. My backpack was still sitting in the corner where I had left it. I grabbed it and pulled out a flashlight, some food, and a bottle of water. I slung the backpack on my shoulder and jogged outside. Mike kept, bugging me and followed me outside.Our den was surrounded by thick woods. The air carried a heavy scent of earth and pine needles. The sun was full scorch, and its light was bright enough

    Dominique's POVI never believed in mercy. I was born an alpha, raised to be strong, fierce, and deadly. Compassion was a weakness, one that I had no intention of indulging in as I stared down at Alpha Marcus, bloodied and bruised, his pack cowering behind him in fear.He had been my prisoner for days, and despite my best efforts, he had refused to divulge any information about the whereabouts of Alexander. There had been moments of intense pain, moments when I glimpsed something in his eyes, something that hinted at knowledge of Alexander's movements, but he had remained stubborn, remaining silent, refusing to give in to the pain.Beating upon beating, different styles of interrogation and tutoring done, but he wouldn't bulge.That wasn't the case today. Today, as I looked down at him, I saw something different in his eyes, a desperation that was both unfamiliar and uncomfortable to witness. With one final burst of strength, he pushed himself up from the ground, his breath coming in

I had to find him.I finally reached the edge of the pack's territory, and I could see the den in the distance. I took a deep breath, straightened my back, and began to run towards the den. The guards at the entrance tried to stop me, but I quickly took care of them, and barged into the alpha's den."What brings you here, Dominique?" Alpha Marcus asked, raising an eyebrow at me."I need to know where Alexander is," I growled, my eyes narrowing."I'm sorry, but I cannot divulge that information," Marcus replied calmly.My patience was wearing thin.

    Laura's POV I stood in front of the punching bag, sweat dripping down my face, my fists tightly wrapped in gloves. Despite the pain that came with throwing each punch, the steady rhythm of it brought a sense of calm to my mind. It was the only way I knew how to deal with the hurt that my family had inflicted upon me after I visited them to tell them about Annabelle's death. They had blamed me for what had happened to her. The accusations had rained down upon me like a torrential storm, leaving me feeling battered and bruised. It was unfair, unrealistic, and, to be blunt, cruel. I knew deep down that it wasn't my fault, that I had done everything in my power to be there for her, but their words lingered like a festering wound, refusing to heal. I shook my head, focusing on the bag as I threw a punch. The sound of the impact echoed across the gym, and I welcomed it, appreciating the release of energy that came with it. I felt eyes on me and turned to see Alexander watching me from the

    Chris's POV I sat in my cabin, staring at the empty room. The silence was deafening. For years, the pack had been my family, their howls and laughter more soothing than any symphony. But that had all changed when Dominique attacked us. The pack was decimated, and our once prosperous territory was now a barren wasteland filled with people who didn't own the territory. My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps outside the door. I knew it was Alexander. He entered the room with a grave look on his face, and I immediately sensed that something was wrong. "What's the matter, Alexander?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm. "It's about the pack, Chris," he said, his voice heavy with emotion. "I spoke to the other alphas, but they refused to help us rebuild. They said they have their own problems to deal with." I let out a sigh. This was worse than I had expected. Without the support of the other alphas, it would be almost impossible to rebuild the pack. I thought if Ale

    Alexander's POVIt was a rainy evening, and I was sitting on the couch waiting for Laura to come home. I had a bad feeling about her visit to her parents, especially after what had happened in the past and how they maltreated Laura.I listened to the sound of the rain tapping on the window, and soon heard the door opening. Laura walked in, and my heart sank as I saw tears in her eyes. I stood up and walked towards her, holding her close as she broke down in my arms."What happened?" I asked, my heart tight with worry."My father blamed me for Annabelle's death," she whispered amid sobs.I knew this was coming, but I couldn't help feeling angry at her father for putting her through this pain once again. I held her tight, trying to soothe her."Shh... It's alright, Laura. He doesn't know what he's saying," I said, trying to calm her down."But what if it's true? What if I am to blame? Because it feels like that." She asked, her voice shaking with fear."Stop that talk right now. You had

    Clara's POVI sat in the living room of Dominique's new acquired house, my eyes fixed on the TV, but my mind wandering somewhere else entirely. Dominique was watching me from the corner of his eye, and I couldn't help but notice the way his gaze lingered on me longer than it should have. It made me feel uneasy."You seem distracted," Dominique stated the obvious, turning off the TV.I looked over at him, trying to gauge if there was any ulterior motive behind his words. "I guess I'm just tired," I hedged, not wanting to give him the upper hand.Dominique crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall. "Is there something on your mind?"I hesitated for a moment before finally speaking my mind. "I can't help but feel like you're playing a game with me, Dominique. Like you're testing me to see if I'm really on your side or just pretending to be."Dominique's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "What makes you say that?"I shrugged. "It's just a feeling I have.
