"YOU BITCH!" Lauren sneers at Sandra, almost lunging for her, but the latter looks unfazed by all the attempts of the former."You got what you deserved." Sandra says to Lauren in a sharp tone, and a smug look settles on my face as I clap for her.Everyone around me joins me as we cheer on Sandra and her good deed. I walk over to her to see that she's blushing a bit. I rest my hand on her shoulder, and she flinches a bit before looking up to see that I'm the one who touched her."You did good, Sandra. You did really good." I say to her, giving her shoulders a light squeeze, and she nods her head for me."I'm sorry for drugging," she says, and an amused smile settles on my features."It's fine. Besides, I've always wanted to get high." My voice drops to a whisper, and I wink at the ending of my statement. Sandra's eyes widen and her jaw drops, almost touching the floor, causing me to laugh hard.I'm about to tell her that I'm only joking when suddenly Oliver is in our midst. He looks a

"You're willing to sacrifice so many wolves to search for me, brother?" A calming yet deadpan voice soothed the air.Everyone jerks into alertness as we turn to face the owner of the voice. My lips parted as a gasp escaped through them. Even though Jeremy and I weren't really close when we were younger and it's been years since I last saw him, a single glance and I can already tell him apart.That's partly because he's an exact replica of my mate; the only differences are in hairstyle and bodily muscle; perhaps we could see the difference in features.While Harry's face is all chiselled with sharp edges, Jeremy's is softer, more curvier, and innocent. But only to onlookers. From what I've heard today, he might just be the spawn of the devil.A wry smile forms on his lips as we walk closer to where Harry and I are standing, and that's when I notice the three men behind. Not specifically them, but what they're holding.My babies!Three buff and angry-looking rogues hold on tight to my t
The Alpha’s Second Mate 104| The Big Three!
"My children...?" Harry asks in a confused tone.The smug and vicious look on Jermy's face is so bright yet dull at the same time. He turns to face me, and mock pity washes over his expression."Isla, Isla, Isla," he calls, shaking his head. "Have you not told my brother that you bore three kids for him?" He feigns innocence as he speaks, and I swallow a bitter bile on my throat as everyone gasps and turns to me.My vision blurs as my eyes turn glassy."And they say that I'm the traitor. Here you are hiding my brother's own flesh and blood from him. That's cruelty on another level, Isla." Jeremy continues to speak."Isla..." I hear a voice drawl from beside me, and I turn to see Harry staring at me with pure betrayal in his eyes. My heart breaks all over again.This. This is what I've been trying to avoid all along. This horrible and harsh feeling of betrayal overwhelms Harry as he stares at me. He's looking at me like he doesn't know who I am anymore.Of all the ways Harry has found
The Alpha’s Second Mate 105| Alpha Title.
After Harry agrees to Jeremy's terms, the next word the psychopath says catches everyone off guard. "Mhmm. That's all good and fun, but I've decided to change my terms since you took too long to answer."What? "What does that mean?" I ask Jeremy in a trembling voice.He doesn't look at me as he answers my question. "I want Harry to get on his privileged knees and beg me to spare his children's lives and hand me his alpha title." Jeremy says in a smug tone as he looks at Harrry."What?" A chorus of people echos, not excluding Harry and me. "Jeremy, you can't be serious," I say with a pained and strained voice."I'm as serious as those thallium-laced blades against your children's necks." He says with a hint of humour in his tone as he goes ahead to even laugh as Harry and I are both rocking."Jeremy... " Harry drawls in a hurt tone, and I watch their back and forth with teary eyes."What? That's my name," Jeremy laughs, making him look ten years younger than his age and also nicer t
The Alpha’s Second Mate 106| Commotion.
What have I done?One second turns into a hundred more as Jeremy drops his knees. I glance at Harry to see that he's staring at me with something indecipherable in his gaze. As I attempt to finish the job, Jeremy shocks everyone as he pulls out a knife from God knows where and uses it to slash my bare thighs.I let out a loud scream, and in that moment, one voice was clear as day, even if it was incredibly low. "Kill them." Jeremy says without emotion, and I let out a piercing scream as the men holding my children used their poisoned knives to slice my kids' throats.War starts.Battle cries are heard from all around me as everyone jerks into action. This is all my fault. All the commotion is happening around me, and I am paralysed. I can't move a single muscle in my body.It's like everything has been drained from my body. I have no more purpose. No more will to live. Nothing.-Flashback-"Mummy?" Dylan calls out to me as I tuck him in."Yes, love." I reply, and he shoots up from th
The Alpha’s Second Mate 107| Scared.
"Look in front of you." Oliver drags in a lost tone, and my lips part as I blink the tears from my eyes and use the back of my palm to wipe my tears dry, sniffling all the way.When I look in front to check what's going on, I see Sandra crouched next to my babies, and she's doing something. I immediately jerk into alertness as I wipe the sands away from my back and body and head straight towards her.I see her forcing a glass of something into each of their mouths. I fall to my knees next to her, and I feel myself tearing up once again. "Sandra..." I call out her name, and she turns to me."The cure. I had a spare in case of a necessity, and when I saw what those men did to them, I couldn't just stand by and—before she gets to finish her statement, I'm already engulfing her in a tight hug, crushing her hard as I sob against her.Sandra is also crying, and I can tell why. Though she's only gotten to know them for a few months, she's fallen deeply in love with them. I mean, how could a p

"Just answer the question, Isla. What were you scared of?" Harry's voice booms from behind me, and I'm shaken.I quickly turned around to see him leaning against the doorpost. How long has he been standing there? Did he hear anything? The venomous look he regards me with tells me everything I need to know."I—" I try to speak, but it's like all the words are mushed inside my throat, and I have nothing to say. I've been trying to explain since Jeremy dropped the bomb, and now that he's actually here, I don't think I'm in the right mindset to say any of them.Why can't I speak? He's waiting for me to say something. Anything. But I stared at him, wide-mouthed and teary-eyed, without saying anything. I'm an idiot."Mom, talk. What are you afraid of?" Daniel pesters me, and the tears in my eyes threaten to cascade, but I suck them in. Sniffling aloud by mistake and alerting them to my teary eyes"Mum, why are you cry—?" Before Dylan is able to finish asking his question, I'm already standi
The Alpha’s Second Mate 109| You Don’t Love Me.
His question causes me to go into an existential crisis. I take a step back, clutching my chest tightly as I attempt to look for the right words to answer him.I would've told him about the kids eventually. But eventually, it would've taken a long time. What is wrong with me? Why did I do this to him?I can see as he watches me, hoping that I have a different reaction to his question than this, but what can I do? I can't lie to him anymore, so I let out a sigh, blink every single trace of tears from my eyes, and swallow a deep breath."I don't know." I answer him quietly, and the wind whistles around us. It's like the world knows my mate and I are at odds, so it technically pauses for us.It's like we're frozen in time. At least that's how I feel as I watch Harry's reaction to what I just said, which is absolutely no reaction at all. I think I broke him. I look at his chest to see that he's still breathing, but I can tell that his mind and soul aren't here.With me. They're elsewhere.
