Roberto POV

Inside the spacious boardroom, the air around it was suffocating even though the Air conditioner was on. That was the effect I wanted. They should feel my rage.

The people sitting around the table were tense and everyone was managing their breathing because I couldn’t make out their breaths even though I was sitting in front of them at the moment. Were they all too scared to breathe?

‘Seeing how they all looked solemn, this should be fun’ I mulled in my head as a lazy smirk hitched my lips.

The room was not a funeral parlor and no one is dead yet because I am not promising that someone is not going to lose it, if care isn’t taken.

“Mr. Hidalgo, did you mind addressing us?” one of the oldest shareholders in the company spoke up and I smiled knowing he was going to be the first person to say something.

I was currently in the Hidalgo corporation boardroom and I was there to address the board about a new product launch but an unfortunate incident happened over

    Jenna’s POV The next morning, me and my friend, Mary, resumed the Hidalgo group because we didn’t want to work for our father’s company and you could say that we were trying to be independent. We both rushed to the company already knowing that we were late for the interview but while rushing into the building we met a little hiccup on the way. “Hey! Watch where you are going!” a blond girl screamed while bumping into me and the files in her hands fell to the floor. I heaved a sigh bending to pick up the files but I was surprised when I heard her words. “What arrogant brats! First, they didn’t watch where they were going but now one of them is too arrogant to pick up the files,” I heard the girl heave and I stood up dropping all the files that I had picked up on the floor. “What did you just say? Who were you referring to as arrogant brats?” I glared at the girl and I wondered why she was looking for trouble when she was the one that bumped into us. Was she trying to get

    Jenna’s POV After what I said the room fell into silence and the temperature in the room dropped below average, I shivered when the chilly atmosphere hit my skin. What is he going to say? Does he not like what I just said? Did he get offended? Or did he actually buy it instead of getting scared? Different thoughts filled my head as I wondered what was going on in the man’s mind. “What trick are you playing?” I heard him rasp out after a long time and my body jolted in fear when his cold voice rang through the room and I wondered how someone could babe so much coldness in his voice. “Trick? What trick? I wasn’t planning to play any,” I mumbled and I watched him hissed in disgust, probably wondering what I was up to but I couldn’t think of what to do. Wasn’t I trying to scare him? Why was I the one getting scared? I wondered and my lips quivered in fear seeing that. “If you really cheated , how did you do that? I am curious,” he says, winking at me, and my legs weakenin

    Jenna’s POV I was surprised by the sight in front of me and I was sure that I wasn’t the only one because many people were also equally shocked by the appearance of the girl. “What is going on with her, why is she dressed for Halloween?” Mary asked and I shook my head seeing that it really wasn’t funny. We both walked towards the girl seeing that people were making jest of her and we didn’t like that. “Hi Miss, are you here for the interview?” I asked and she nodded her head because the costume she was putting on might be suffocating her. I was surprised to hear that the girl was indeed there for the interview but she was dressed like she had a cosplay interview. “Then why are you dressed like this?” I asked and she told me the reason why she showed up at the interview venue with a costume. It was really hilarious. “You mean your mate’s friend asked you to dress like this for an interview and you agreed?” I asked to be sure I wasn’t mistaken because I couldn’t wrap my

    **Jenna's POV** I stared blankly at the message and didn't know what expression to give off. The more I look, the more convinced I am that the message was actually meant for me.What the actual fuck?"Can we go on a date this weekend?" I read out loud like I was referring to anyone as chuckles escaped my mouth hearing that. It sounds quite funny as anything I couldn't quite tell was why this man was trying so hard to impress me.I came for another mission which is to get my revenge and that's all."Do you really have to try so hard when I'm actually coming for you?" Mumbles dropped from my mouth as I placed the phone back into my purse and walked towards the kitchen. I wasn't doubtful of my stepmother before but after what I noticed when I was in the room with my father, it was more than enough to tell me that I should be wary of her.I packed up the shards of cups that littered around and put them in a plastic wrap, I called an old time friend named Lucan because I needed help with

Well, that's all she can do about her emotions and nothing else."So tell me, how have you been?" Williams was deliberately ignoring Lily and that got me excited, making a sly smirk appear at the corner of my lips. Responding to Williams was one thing I never wanted to do, the plan isn't to make Lily jealous because that would make Williams think that he has me. I'm also not planning on making make Williams feel comfortable in order for him not to get his hopes high. I wanted to make both if them feel miserable, I want Williams to regret asking me out on a date and for the fact that he dare came to my house. I want him regret every fucking thing he did today."I've been great all through this week but, sadly, a joy kill came around." I made that statement eyeing him so he would know I was referring to him." You can't speak to him in that manne

I first heaved a sigh of relief."You scared me." I didn't have the chance to think about anything else as I walked to my room, tiredness loomed all over me, I couldn't help but crave my bed."The plan wasn't to excite you though." Ginger muttered sarcastically. I didn't bother responding to her, I just got in and threw my bag at on the little couch close to me. Today was a long and exciting day though, I hopped on my bed and drifted off to sleep. *This can't be! Why is my hands stained with blood? Oh no.... I didn't kill them right?

I called the moment I entered the room where he was. I broke down in tears because this man was looking like a shadow of himself."What happened to you dad?" Ginger asked as she wailed in his laps.Dad couldn't talk, he only coughed and smiled at us, a weak smile ."Tell me you'll get better, just talk to me dad, tell me this is something minor." I silently prayed to the goddess, this man better makes it out of here alive.

    **Epilogue**Jenna gently placed the twins, Lila and Lyon, in their cribs, her heart swelling with love and exhaustion. The dedication ceremony for the twins was just a day away, and she couldn't wait to introduce them to the pack.As she gazed at her sleeping babies, Jenna felt a sense of peace wash over her. Lila, with her delicate features and soft, golden hair, was a gentle soul, while Lyon, with his strong jaw and piercing blue eyes, was a brave and adventurous spirit.Jenna smiled, remembering the moment she and Roberto had decided on the names. Lila, meaning "play" or "amusement", suited their little girl's playful nature, while Lyon, meaning "lion-hearted", was perfect for their brave and fearless son.The next day, the pack gathered at the ceremony site, eager to meet the new additions. Jenna and Roberto stood before the pack, holding their babies close, as the elder began the dedication ritual."Lila and Lyon, born of love and strength, we welcome you to our pack," the elder

    Roberto's POVI stood in the dimly lit room, staring at the witch who had been causing so much chaos. She was bound to a chair, her eyes gleaming with a malevolent intensity."You're the one who created this virus," I growled, my anger simmering just below the surface.She smiled, her lips curling up in a cruel smile. "I simply unleashed a power that was already within the wolves. A power that Jenna can harness."I raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"The witch's smile grew wider. "Jenna has the power to heal the wolves. But she must remember it from her past life."I frowned, unsure what to make of this revelation. "What do you mean, her past life?"The witch's eyes seemed to bore into my soul. "Jenna has lived before, Roberto. She has the power of the ancient ones within her. But she must remember it, or the wolves will perish."I felt a surge of hope. Could it be true? Could Jenna really hold the key to saving our pack?I turned to the witch, my voice firm. "Tell me more."The wi

    Jenna's POVAs I watched, the disease ravaged our pack, leaving a trail of death and destruction in its wake. Roberto, our strongest and most determined alpha, was tasked with finding a cure, but fate had other plans.The presence within him, a dark and malevolent force, began to stir, threatening to consume him whole. I saw the struggle in his eyes, the battle to maintain control, but it was no use. The presence was too strong, too ancient."Roberto, no!" I screamed, as he fell to the ground, his body contorting in ways that seemed impossible.I rushed to his side, feeling the heat emanating from his skin, the power coursing through his veins. I knew I had to act fast, or risk losing him forever.With a deep breath, I reached out, connecting with the presence, feeling its dark energy coursing through me. It was a risk, but one I had to take.Slowly, I began to chant, ancient words of banishment, feeling the power build within me. The presence fought back, but I stood firm, my will un

    Azrael"Imelda!!!." I screamed as she hurriedly ran out of the room.But that didn't make her stabilize her pace or rather run a little bit slower. She kept sprinting like a wolf that was participating in a Marathon competition."Imelda!!." I yelled as I did my best to catch up with her.Gawddd, how can a woman run so perfectly well and this fast even after all the horrible things that happened lately."Imelda." I called as I managed to outrun her and now I was standing right in front of my already pissed off Luna."What's your problem? Just let me be and do the right thing already." Imelda started wiping her face like an outstressed person."Fine….I mean, yes. Why not? But where are you running to?." I asked as her words kept replaying in my ears like some eerie music that sounded like torture itself. "Maybe I should just fall off a cliff.""I'm running to get as far away as possible from any member of this pack, precisely I'm running to the comfort of the solitude of my own room ...

    AzraelWhat else would Irene not do? Well, I really do not want to start taking actions and it then turns out she isn't the one but who would? Imelda can't do such a thing without telling me… No she can't even do it.But then another shocking realization dawned in me.Could it be Alpha Lena, Imelda's mom?But she was with us just now in my room. What if she did it when I and Imelda were in my room? How can that even be possible?Different questions came into my head and I got confused.I have to lay low and not act rashly if I really want to know who this person was and know what he or she is up to.The only people in this pack that were on my suspicion list right now were Irene and Alpha Lena, but Alpha Lena had no access to my study room.With anger, I marched out of my room down to Irene's.If Alpha Lena has no rights to my room, it only meant one thing…Irene was the one.Pushing her door wide open, I saw her on her bed sleeping peacefully. Who would be so peaceful after making a

    Azrael"I think she's up to something bad." I said to Imelda but she wasn't surprised at all.I expected to see shock on her face but the shock she showed up was one that confirmed her curiosity.The shock I saw was the one that I wasn't expecting."I knew it!!!." She yelled as she stared at me wide eyed, her eyes bulging out like they would pop out of its socket."What do you know?." I asked feigning ignorance yet again so as to know what was on her mind. One thing I know is that my love was quite a witty one."Oh come on. You think you're the only one that questions why my mother finally returns as a confident Alpha after leaving for years." She stated and I couldn't help but admire her strategic mind.Not every one, let alone a woman would be able to think so fast and swift, Imelda indeed amazes me. "Wow, my mate has really got some quick wits." I complimented and she blushed."Thank you!." She said doing that little bow like courtesy.I flashed her a smile and her face turned red

    Adrian's POV"Jasmine, what are you doing here?." I asked as I looked at her in disbelief, my wolf leaped for joy at her sight.Gosh that smile. Her smile was so contagious that I had to smile as well."Well, I'm here to help out." She said and that was when I noticed a spear in her hands, looking behind her I saw a legion of armies and i smiled."Who told you we needed help?." I asked approaching her."No one has to tell me, I kind of heard though from passerbys so I decided to intervene. After all, one good turn deserves another. " She stated and I couldn't help but smile. She would make a very fine and brave Luna some day. "Well, now that you're here before we get engrossed in a blood bathed war. Let me run the introductions. ""Everyone, this is Jasmine Cortex, a very dear friend of mine. " I introduced, intentionally omitting the part of her been my mate.And Jasmine, meet my mother; Luna Ashina.

    Adrian's POVMy wolf immediately readied himself because whatever was there wasn't something good.The atmosphere was stale all for a sudden and I knew that danger was arising.I could feel it in me, just then a shadow appeared from behind and gnashed his teeth.I swerved immediately and transformed into my wolf form and pounced on him. This was a rouge wolf, I sniffed the air and I could tell that more were coming. They were coming in an army and their aim was to take over our Kingdom.That was one gift I had, I guess nature decided to help me out in some parts of life because it denied me of parental love.I quickly clawed this rouge and tore it in half, when I was sure that it was dead, I shifted back to my wolf form and ran back inside the pack house sealing the doors as I went.I was running to meet the Alpha when I entered the grand room and met the devilish duo staring at me with fear written all over them.Of course, they knew that rouges were in the building and they couldn't

She announced and u looked up only to be at the gate of one of the most gigantic pack house I've ever seen here."Wow, you like here?." I asked once again just to be sure that she wasn't lying or something."Of course, my dad is the Alpha. Maybe you wanna see him before leaving ?. " She suggested because she didn't even give me a chance to speak, she just pulled me on my arms and led me forward."Jas........ Where are we going?." I suddenly asked when I noticed her moving towards the market."Well, le's explore the market and all the stores or rather....all the stores I've ever been to.
