CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Hera's POV

My heart is still beating erratically while I eat and it's hard to swallow as Hugh stares at me like there is nothing to concentrate on in the kitchen.

The cut on my lip is burning as I eat but I hardly notice it because my hands are still shaky from the unexpected kiss I just had with him.

I didn't see it coming. I didn't expect it to happen so fast, but then I could feel the magnetic draw between us and how he kept on staring at me with so much intensity so it was understandable if he couldn't help himself but kiss me. After all, I'm his mate.

I take the last of the pasta on my plate and chew then I swallow nervously like I've been doing since I started eating. I drop my fork loudly and rush off to get water which I drink in a rush. I can still feel Hugh's eyes boring into my back and I know I have to leave the kitchen as fast I can before I do something I'll wake up to regret tomorrow.

I'm too slow though, because as soon as I return the cup, I feel a p

    CHAPTER EIGHTEENAlpha Hugh's POVThe training is getting intense. The guards are doing their pushups, some warriors are having duels amongst themselves until they would have the winner while some are busy training in their werewolf form. Felix and Seb are training with each other while I on the other hand, I'm busy using the punching bag, hung in a corner to practice more on strengthening my punches.Then I see Krystal coming and she is fuming. I figured she must have instigated Hera when she went to get her to come and train and I was sure that Hera didn't keep silent too. Her sharp tongue and fiery temper weren't going to let Krystal get away with just speaking to her however she wanted.I smile to myself and continue training as I wait for her to come towards me which she does, just as I predicted.“You won't believe that Hera, speaking to me like she has no respect” she nags but I don't reply. The last thing I want to do is get in their middle so I'll just leave them to sort out

    I regain my senses back after that coded statement and wink that Alpha Hugh gave me and I turn to see he's gone quite far so I run to catch up with him and he smiles at me again while I grin shyly.God that smile of his, I hated it before but now, I just want him to keep on smiling at me like that.I may not stay in his pack for long because once I get all the information that Alpha Luggard wants to get for him, they'll attack the pack and he may likely get killed since he's the alpha and would have to be with the warriors when they're defending the pack but before then, I want to enjoy this moment with him, I want to know how it feels to have a mate that wants you too. Then after that, I'll leave and start afresh with Mark somewhere else.I feel guilty though, that I'm putting the whole pack in such danger. I was rejected by one mate and now I'm the one orchestrating the downfall of the other mate I get… I must say, maybe I was cursed from birth and the effect of the curse is just ma

    CHAPTER TWENTYHera's POVWe finally arrive at the garage, my hand is still in Alpha Hugh's while we wait for the guard to open up the roll-up aluminum door to the garage and we walk in once the entrance is fully open.Opposite us inside the garage is a man who looks like he's in his thirties in a jumpsuit and he's holding a box filled with tools to check the cars.He bows once he sees the alpha and he gives me a look to tell me he's the Isaac I have to meet.“Mr. Newman, I'm so glad you came over. I completely forgot I'm supposed to have you check my cars like you do monthly but I'm happy you remembered. Which is why I like your services” Hugh tells Isaac and he smiles before he bows again.“You're paying for the services Alpha Hugh, I'm not supposed to forget. It's my duty to make sure you drive in perfectly fine cars” he replies and Alpha Hugh smiles in response before he gives Isaac the go-ahead to go on and check the cars to know which needs to be serviced or fixed and I'm left w

    CHAPTER TWENTY ONEIt's night, and everyone's seated once again in the dining room for dinner… Including me.The day has been normal ever since I returned from the garage with alpha Hugh and I've been in my room going through the new phone that was sent to me from the blue moon pack while he was away for his meeting at his company. I had my breakfast and lunch in my room and I made sure to lock the door so one would barge in and catch me with a phone from nowhere in my hands.Then time for dinner came and Alpha Hugh was back from his company already.He knocked on my door before he went to his room but when I opened the door, he wasn't there so I knew he was teasing me. I just smiled and went back into my room.I went into the closet to search for something nice to wear but it seemed like the closet was against me; I was out of clothes so I just made do with the t-shirt and jeans on me and went downstairs for dinner alone since I was already used to the long passages and stairs.I ar

    CHAPTER TWENTY-TWOHera's POVI get to my room and I stop to look down the passage to see if anyone is coming before I go in. It's empty and that makes me relieved so I open my door quietly and I quickly walk in so no one would see before I lock the door behind me.I rush towards my bed and I raise my pillow to get the box of ashes or whatever then I sit on my bed and open it up. I open the box and I stare at the content in my box. I sigh in fright before I close my eyes and give myself the talk so I'll have more courage to do what I'm about to do.“You can do this Hera. Alpha Luggard will probably just ask you a few questions and you'll be good to go. You've got this” I tell myself and open my eyes before I stare at the box in my hand for a while again and I take in a long breath. God my heart is beating so fast and I'm terrified of what could happen when I take this powder but I don't have a choice or say in this. I just have to do it because Alpha Luggard will be waiting for me and

    CHAPTER TWENTY-THREEKrystal's POVMy alarm goes off and I wake up immediately. I look out the window by my bedside and I can see the courtyard with maids scurrying to and fro while they do their chores.I rub my eyes to get rid of the sleepiness and I come down from my bed while stretching my body before I head to the bathroom to get cleaned up in preparation to train.I remember the previous night and the conversation I had with alpha Hugh and I can't help but feel embarrassed as my heart hurts for no reason. I was indeed ready to let him go but feelings don't just die or fade overnight. They'll linger for a while before I finally get rid of them but from now on, I won't be getting in between him and Hera anymore, I have no place to do such.I head for my closet after I'm done getting my teeth brushed and my skin prepped, and I open up my drawer for my training kits. I have a hard time making a choice for a while before I decide to go for the brown and I put it on then I pack my hai

    Krystal's POVI'm staring into blank space intensely as I wait for Alpha Hugh and the rest to show up so we may begin our meeting and put our plan into action.I'm still thinking of the dream walking powder I felt on Hera's face and I can't help but conjure a million scenes of her using it in my head because I can't seem to put a finger on any reason why she would be using the dream walking powder in the first place.I've been observing her ever since we left her room for the training ground and she still looked uneasy when we got there… Until she quickly keeps on a relaxed face and approaches Alpha Hugh. Maybe to apologize for what she did; avoiding his hand when we were in her room but I can't hear their conversation. I just see that Alpha suddenly looks sorry even though he looked angry a moment ago and he hugs her.I didn't realize Felix was watching me until he approached me and stood beside me.“Are you trying to bore a hole through her? You've been staring at her so intensely t

I lost my parents and everyone in the fang pack and because of that, I’m separated from my brother too; doing this stupid and dangerous mission that has my life and Mark’s life at stake if I should fail.I won’t fail though, I’ll make sure that they don’t have anything on me or find anything suspicious about me until I complete it and leave here for good… even though Alpha Hugh may be the best mate I’ll ever have, he probably won’t be alive when Alpha Luggard is done infiltrating and attacking them.He’s the Alpha… with the responsibility of leading his warriors during war so his life would be at stake and he may ev

    Hera's POVI'm still laying on the floor with Alpha Hugh and he seems to be losing a lot of blood from where the bullet grazed him so with a lot of struggle, I help him up to his feet so we'll go down and get help quickly before he loses too much blood and loses his consciousness.“Let's just try and get down, then we'll get help and you'll be fine,” I tell him and he grunts in reply.“Don't worry, it isn't too serious Hera, I'll be fine” he says to assure me but I don't listen to his words as I keep leading us downstairs.We hear footsteps approaching and I quickly reach for the gun in my pocket in case it's a Bluemoon pack guard but the person comes closer and it turns out to be Krystal who was coming toward us.We grin at each other once we see each other and a new wave of joy and relief takes over me and it settles on me that Alpha Luggard is actually dead and gone for good.

    CHAPTER SEVENTYHera's POVI'm still in a state of shock, still finding it hard to comprehend how people could easily give up their lives for one person that doesn't even care about them. It irks me to know how much power that Alpha Luggard has over the minds of his spies that he’s stationed and it angers me to know that they willingly let him manipulate them until they couldn’t even think for themselves anymore.I remember Isaac and how my long speech of convincing him didn’t work until he was caught and killed and he didn’t even give the name of any other spy while I cowered in fear of possibly getting exposed. If only I knew how hard minded they all were thanks to Alpha Luggard and his perfect manipulation.I sigh again as I sit in the car beside Hugh who’s driving and he holds our already linked fingers tighter while he spares me a glance from time to time to see how I’m doing.“That bastard, Luggard. I’m going to make him feel so sorry for ruining people’s lives as he dies” I say

I smile to myself as I look up at his face to see that he's still asleep. Then the alarm rings again and he stirs in his sleep before he opens his eyes dizzily and looks down at me. I maintain eye contact with him and we remain like that for a while before a smile spreads slowly on his face and I feel my insides tingle due to how adorable he looks.“Good morning” he says and I take his hand and kiss his knuckles.“Good morning my Alpha” I greet him back before I sit up on the bed and he follows to do the same.“Hope you had a good night” he asks and I nod gingerly in response while he smiles and kisses me on my forehead.“So, are you ready for today?” I ask him, since we’re going to go after the spies that Alpha Hugh planted in the pack and he nods in response.“Of course, now we can get those that want to destroy my pack and end them” he says then h

    Luca’s POVI was still in a state of shock when we arrived at the Silvercrest pack. I was still finding it hard to believe that I just ditched my pack and Alpha and if it weren't for Alpha Hugh who accepted me right from when I was willing to help them, I would be a rogue by now.I betrayed my Alpha so there is no way that he would forgive me or even think of taking me back because that is an irreversible act that I did and even if I had the chance to do it again, I would do it.That's how much Alpha Luggard infuriates me.Still hurting from my leg that I got hit when I and Hera were trying to escape and we fought with the guards, I start to limp when I get down from the van as we arrive at the pack and I see Alpha Hugh carrying Hera who's now asleep inside.I still feel sorry for her for how she had to watch her little brother die helplessly and how she couldn't even get his body due to the situation.I know it must be hurting her as hell but I know she's strong and with all of us by

I'm stuck to a spot and that makes it more frustrating for me that I can't do anything to save him.Suddenly, I find that I'm back at the moment when I was about to save Mark. When the guard was still holding onto him before Alpha Luggard shot him in the head.All senses in me awaken, forgetting it's a dream and I find myself running at the fastest as I can to save him before he falls off like he did previously but the bullet still whizzes past me like it did that time and I watch in horror once again, how the bullet burst open the guards h

I'm still struggling with him still in the corner and we stand a risk of being exposed as we see guards passing by with guns each so he quickly covers my mouth to stop me from making any sound and that's when he finally gets my attention.He looks at me with deep remorse in his eyes for a while without saying a word and soon, I begin to feel myself calm down so I pull his hand off my mouth to get myself together little by little as I fist my hair while heaving continuously.“Hera I know this is a bad time to say this but we don't have a choice. I betrayed my Alpha and you just destroyed his right arm so we're both in deep shit. He's going to come for us and won't stop until we're both dead so we have to find a way out of this pack by all means” he tells me and I meet his eyes.“He killed m

I came all this way for my brother, I went through all those things just to keep him safe so he has to be fine for it all to pay off. He's the only family I have left so he has to be fine because I can't afford to lose him, I'll never forgive myself.Minutes turn into an hour and there's still nothing from Reece to confirm that they've gotten out of the pack safely.From the time I estimated for everything to happen, they're meant to be out of the pack by now. Except it's hard for Luca to distract the guards.I sigh as I take a seat while I still wonder what could be keeping them from communicating with me already. My mind is in a turmoil, I'm finding it hard to think straight because many negative scenarios and instances keep popping up in my head even though I keep wishing that none of them are

Just a vast and plain ashy ground with carcasses of skeletons scattered around as I walk on endlessly with no end of the place in sight.I begin to feel tired so I take a seat and soon, I lay down to sleep and I'm sucked into another nightmare.This time, it's new because I'm in a dark room with nothing in sight and I've never seen myself here before.I quickly stand up once I begin to hear noises and when I look to my left, I catch the shadow of someone walking around but I don't see anybody.“Who's there?” I call out but there's no reply so I repeat the same thing again and to my shock, it's my mother that I see.I freeze when I see her and tears cloud my eyes when she smiles at me before pulling me into a hug and I hug her back immediately.“I'm so sorry mum, I wish I did something that day to save all of you, they were just so many” I begin to apologize and she shu

Reece moves to face them and fights them off if they try to attack us but I quickly hold him by the wrist to pull him back because this place isn't the same as the pack we just left. They would kill him without giving him a chance to speak.He looks at me and I just subtly nod so he gets me and he stands beside me without a word, waiting for me to take the next step now.“I'm here to see the Alpha, I was sent on a mission and I'm back now,” I tell them but they don't budge.
