Aubrey’s POV

“Go on and tell me everything…”

Alicia had called me just a few days ago to reveal something, which was the only reason I agreed. Aiden and Damon’s constant calls to check in were beginning to get on my nerves; not only that but their sudden curiosity about my children.

“This is bigger than you think, and I need you to be careful because I can tell what those might be up to, excluding the ailment at the pack.”

“Alicia, I have Hayden, and there is no way he’d let anything happen to me.

I knew how stupid that sounded, mainly because I was comparing a mortal to two alpha princes and an army of werewolves.

“Aubrey…I am serious,” she drawled, and I urged her to continue; I deserved the truth and a better understanding of what I was entering.

“Well, the first thing you need to know is that Aiden was not responsible for everything that had happened back then; whatever he did was to protect you.”

“So he was framed? By who? Last I remembered, Aiden had denied me, humiliated and slu

    The whole ride was silent, and Hayden didn’t mind because he had nothing to say. He explained that he was nervous about going to the Werewolf world because he had never been there before and didn’t know what he would experience. With a sigh, Hayden glanced out the window, trying to distract himself and quell his thoughts from running wild before losing his composure. He briefly glanced at Aubrey and thought about her and the kids. He hated the fact that he was practically handicapped at this point, and he hated having to be looked after like he was a child, but dealing with werewolves was a different matter entirely. Hayden knew that he couldn’t handle it alone. To make matters worse, he was dreading the thought of seeing Aubrey alone with Aiden. He didn’t know how he would react if it happened. He was between the devil and the deep blue sea, and nothing seemed to work out for him. “Hayden?” He blinked rapidly as he heard his name being called out in succession before he felt Aub

    Aubrey’s POV“Do we have to go there, Aubrey?” Hayden said, visibly upset. “We can just leave and forget this ever happened.” “Things don’t work that way here, Hayden.” I tried to explain, but I knew he wouldn’t understand, and I was starting to get irritated.“Really? Because I know that Aiden is bad news, and we need to steer clear of him before he ruins our family with his twisted mind.” Hayden said. Now that we had arrived, I knew that Aiden wouldn’t let us leave without visiting the pack. “Aiden’s still the Alpha, and his orders override all others. We’re going to go home, Hayden. But we need to play our cards right as well.” I said. Reluctantly, Hayden had decided to accompany me to the packhouse. It was pretty difficult to hide my shock, but many things had changed in the pack, and I could barely recognize anything. It was almost as if nothing had changed, but there was one thing that hadn’t. “I almost didn’t believe it when Aiden told me that he had found you and you had

    Damon’s POVNeither Ellie nor Aubrey knew it, but I had been standing outside the door throughout the entire conversation. The reason they couldn’t figure it out was because I had hidden my scent. I heard Ellie walking towards the door so I hid in the empty room opposite the study where they had been until she walked down the hallway. I waited for a few minutes before I came outside to an empty hallway. I didn’t know why I had stood outside her but I couldn’t bring myself to leave. There were a lot of things I had no idea about and this was my chance to learn. I knocked twice on the door before I made my way inside. Aubrey hurriedly tried to wipe her eyes and make it seem like she had been busy before I walked in. “You don’t need to pretend, you know?” I said, clearing my throat as I leaned against the door. “What are you talking about, Damon?” Aubrey frowned as she fixed me with a stare. I was surprised that she had made me out already. She had been having difficulties figurin

    Aubrey’s POVThe next day we decided to get straight into business.I was getting tired of Hayden’s bickering but I didn’t have any choice but to deal with it at the moment. I had my suspicions that he was still feeling upset about the fact that he had tried to be intimate with me last night, and I had turned him down, but I held my tongue. “Aubrey! I asked you a question!” Hayden’s frustrated voice jolted me out of my train of thought. “I got a little bit sidetracked, Hayden.” I apologized, turning my attention towards him. “I’ve been trying not to say it, but I don’t know what’s wrong with you, Aubrey. Something is off but I can’t figure out what it is.” Hayden said, his eyes filled with concern. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Hayden. Do we need to talk about things like this?” I said, letting out a long sigh. “Don’t shut me out, Aubrey. You’ve been acting weird ever since you had that conversation with Aiden and Damon. It’s almost as if you’re a different person sudd

    Aubrey’s POV“I’m not entirely sure that it would be best for you to accompany me, so I’ll advise you to stay back,” I said, slightly hesitating. “Is there a problem, Aubrey?” Hayden asked. "I don't know, Hayden. I don't think you'll be comfortable being amongst werewolves," I answered, relaying my fears to him. “I came here despite knowing what you are and what the rest of your people are as well, I’m not going to back down now,” Hayden said, his eyes locked on mine. “Are you sure about your decision, Hayden? Aiden and Damon don’t like you and they’ve not attempted to hide how they feel about you either.” I explained, trying to change his mind."I want to come with you and you’re not stopping me from doing this, Aubrey,” Hayden said, his mind was made up. "You don't have to do this," I protested. “I don’t want any harm to come to you.” "I came here because I wanted to protect you, Aubrey. That’s what I’m going to do and I won't let you go in there alone," Hayden insisted."But I

    Aubrey’s POV“I still don’t know why I’m here and what any of this has to do with me or my family, Aiden,” I said, rather confused. I was the last person they ought to be sharing this information with because I had no clue how to help them cure this plague. All I wanted was to go back home with my family and never return here. “The truth is that the Moon Goddess didn’t give us an answer like Aiden had told you but she gave us something else — a prophecy,” Damon said this time around. My curiosity piqued and I leaned in slightly. "What kind of prophecy and what does this prophecy have to do with me?” I asked, turning my attention towards him. Aiden and Damon glanced at each other before turning to look at me. I had no idea what the hell was going on and then all of a sudden, like an epiphany, it hit me that there was something else going on. Something major that they were reluctant to share with me. Aiden's expression turned grave. "Aubrey, we need to talk to you about something a

    Aiden POVMy face contorted with anger as I stormed into the kitchen, pushing everyone standing in my way aside as I made my way to the middle of the room. “I’m going to ask this once and I need a credible answer, who the fuck brought pineapple juice to Aubrey’s room?” I thundered, my voice loud enough for everyone within twenty feet to hear as it echoed off the wall. “N-no one could have done that here, Alpha Aiden. We were strictly warned not to serve pineapple juice to her.” One of them eventually mustered the courage to speak. “Then someone needs to explain how it got into her room,” I said, my rage intensifying.“Someone couldn’t have walked in here and placed it on the tray that was being sent to her room, could they? Or are you trying to tell me that everything in here is being compromised?” The maids exchanged fearful glances. “We swear on our lives, we don’t know how it got into her room and we didn’t serve it to her either.” I felt something inside of me snap. “You’re a

    Aubrey’s POVA cacophony of words with different tones filled the air as my eyes slowly fluttered open. Hayden was sitting next to me and clutching my hand to his lips, while Aiden and Damon hovered above him, their faces were filled with a mixture of concern and relief. I tried to sit up but I felt a sharp pain in my ribs and I slowly eased myself back on the bed. “Hey, you’re finally awake,” Hayden said, his eyes glistening with joy as he kissed my hand. “How are you feeling right now?” My throat felt dry as I opened my mouth to speak but I was pretty determined despite being weak. “I—I guess I’m okay. I’m tired but I’ll survive. What happened?” Damon's expression turned grim. "You were poisoned, Aubrey. But we found out who was responsible, and they've been dealt with."Hayden’s grip on my hand got tighter. “They claimed not to have anything to do with the incident but I don’t believe them. They’ve got to know why the culprit carried out this dastardly act but they’ve refused to

    Mark’s POV“Utter woke nonsense! I will not support this foolishness and I want to warn all of you here to desist from raising this issue with our Alpha!” I slammed my fist on the table, making the men sitting around it flinch.They were making no sense with this idea of theirs and I wasn’t going to let it stand. I’d been quite silent on pack matters because I’d been busy with several things but after clearing my schedule to be present here today, everything felt foreign, much to my disgust.“You’re overreacting, Mark. There’s nothing foolish about this decision and you know it.” Elder John said, wagging his finger in my face. “Humor me, John. Tell me why you think this decision that you’ve all decided to go with isn’t a stupid one. I’ll wait for you to give me one credible reason.” I said, leaning into my chair and waiting for him to speak. “The only reason you’re against this idea is because of the rift your daughter has with the person in question.

    Aiden’s POVI may not like Hayden but at that point, we needed every available wolf or man, in his case. I shared a nod with Damon and he backed down from being aggressive with Hayden. “You’ll listen to me at all times. Do not do anything without my permission, do you understand me, Hayden?” I asked. “Yes,” Hayden nodded. That was all I needed as we all hurried out of the room and rushed downstairs. “Is everyone ready to leave?” I asked Damon as I made my way into the car, held open by one of the guards. “Yes, our best fighters are ready and waiting for your command, Aiden,” Damon answered as he joined me in the car. Hayden decided to join a couple of my wolves at the back of the truck and I urged them to keep an eye on him. I hit the roof of the car twice and the engine roared to life, the driver stepped on the accelerator and the car raced out of the parking lot. My fears hadn’t toned down yet but for the first time, I was optimistic about finding Aubrey and bringing her ho

    Aiden’s POVIt had been confirmed. Aubrey was officially declared missing and the news threw the pack into disarray as everyone wondered who could be behind this kidnapping.I’d been asking questions on how this could’ve happened and I finally had a lead. I sat behind the screen, waiting for the suspect as he walked across the street without any care in the world. I wondered how he had gotten past the security at the front door. Sam's Kitchen was one of the best food restaurants in the pack and it was exclusively for the rich and successful. A meal here cost more than what some people earned in a month and I had dinner here anytime I needed to put in a night shift at the office. From my observation, men like him weren't welcomed here, it was bad for business. And knowing how strict the employees were, there was no way he would have gotten past the security guards. Except, if he had gotten in through the back door.Someone had tipped him off about where I would be. There was no need t

    Hayden’s POVI wasn’t on the best terms with Aubrey right now but I still cared about her because we’d been through a lot together and I knew that once we left this hellish place, we were going to come back to what we once were. It’s been 24 hours since I saw her last and I knew that she was fond of locking herself in the laboratory for days to remain focused on her desire to find a cure but I’d managed to hear Aiden and Damon discussing Aubrey’s success in creating a vaccine that can mutate the virus. It wasn’t the cure they hoped she’d create but the vaccine would go a long way in ensuring that people in the pack don’t fall sick and lose their lives in the process altogether. I’d just come out of her son’s room. They were extremely worried and albeit very upset with her, she’d promised to spend the whole day with them and she was nowhere to be found. Aubrey was a lot of things but one thing I could swear on my life that she wouldn’t do was break her promise to her sons, she loved

    Aubrey’s POVMy mind was racing with different possibilities about who could be behind my kidnap. I’d crossed Ellie off my list so there had to be someone else behind this. My head was pounding, I could feel the migraine threatening to split my skull open.Suddenly, it hit me. There was only reason why I would be kept here and if there was anyone who could’ve engineered this whole thing, it was Aiden and his twin, Damon. I felt betrayed and hurt. They’d said they wanted me to leave of my own volition and they went behind my back to do this to me. I looked around the room. It was made of metal and it had a horrible smell. The man had been nice enough to remove the blindfold and the gag before leaving me here. The door opened and I turned around to see the man that left me here walking towards me with a menacing look on his face. “Did he put you up to this?” I asked fearfully as I scurried away. The man remained silent as he walked towards me. I took a close look at him as he app

    Mark’s POVI drummed my fingers on the table as I waited for the call to come in. This was going to be the call that would change everything and tilt the balance in my favor. Aiden had openly disrespected me and he had forgotten how much I helped him when he wanted to assume control of the pack. I spared no expenses and no wolf under my employ during the internal war that lasted for months before we were victorious. I willingly let him get married to my daughter after he promised to treat me in the same manner as I’ve done since she was born and as soon as Aubrey came back into the pack, Ellie was treated as trash. She was now being gossiped and ridiculed by everyone in the pack—and by extension, I was also being dragged in the mud as well. My phone rang and glanced at the caller ID before picking up the call. “She’s been spotted.” A voice said. I nodded. “Is everyone in position? We have only one chance to make this work and I don’t want it to be botched or else, I’m going to l

    Aubrey’s POVI decided to make my way back to the laboratory to produce more vaccines that would be sufficient for the entire pack before leaving the pack. I was still sad about the whole episode and I didn’t see the car tailing us at first. “We’re being followed, ma’am.” My driver, Mr. Gerald said, forcing me to break out of my train of thought. “What did you say?” I asked.“Look behind, ma’am.” I did as he instructed and that was when I saw it. The black car, a sleek and powerful machine accelerated towards us, darting past the unsuspecting drivers, leaving a number of them startled as the car drove past them. “Hold on, ma’am.” Mr. Gerald said, gripping the steering with his white knuckles, as his face squeezed with determination focused on the road ahead. He stepped down hard on the accelerator, the engine roaring to life as he weaved through the cars ahead, eager to outrun the predator chasing them. The chase entered a whole new dimension as they raced into the Ss, both d
