Jenna's POV I sat in class, surrounded by students who seemed to know exactly what they were doing. I, on the other hand, felt like a fish out of water. It had been weeks since I started studying business in secret, and I was determined to keep it that way.My stepmother, Brianna, would never approve. She had always pushed me towards more "feminine" pursuits, like art or music. But I had other plans. I wanted to take control of my own future, and business seemed like the perfect way to do it.I had to be careful, though. Brianna had a way of finding out things she wasn't supposed to know. So, I kept my classes a secret, sneaking out of the house early in the morning and returning late at night, when she was distracted.It wasn't easy, but it was worth it. I was finally doing something for myself, something that made me feel alive. And as I sat in class, listening to the professor drone on about marketing strategies, I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment.But, as the days turned
****As I drive back to my pack, my mind is consumed by the venomous words Jax, Lola's foster father, spewed about her. I can't shake off the feeling of indignation and protectiveness that's been simmering inside me since I witnessed his cruelty. Why did he have to be so heartless? Doesn't he know how amazing Lola is?I grip the steering wheel tighter, my knuckles white with tension, as I relive the memory of Jax's scornful tone and hateful language. My pack's values of loyalty and respect echo in my mind, and I wish Jax was part of our pack, so I could teach him a lesson in humility and compassion. I'd show him what it means to be a true leader, to earn respect and loyalty.If only I could have stood up to him, I think, my eyes narrowing. I would have confronted him, looked him straight in the eye, and told him to shut his mouth. I would have shown him the true meaning of strength and honor. My instincts urge me to defend Lola, to make Jax understand the error of his ways.As I drive
Roberto's POVI looked at her pale and petite face as she slept peacefully without no care in the world. I had officially asked her drive to take another cab home as I would be taking her back to my pack. Well, I did that when I learned of a plan hatched by unknown people against her. I can't really tell how many goes she has but I know I needed to protected her with everything in me."Alpha..." The voiced said at the other end of the phone as I picked it up."Who are they?" I asked straight up trying as much as I can not to shout in order not to wake her up. I also noticed that these people are going to come for her bestfriend Mary."I can't tell right now because all tracks if the plans where cleaned up. I could say this was planned by good tech guys." Aeon explained. I've always trusted him when giving out works like this to him so I believe him when he say no trace of them can be found."Alright. But, that doesn't mean the search has ended." I stated as a matter of fact. I must an
"Move out!" A familiar voice yelled and both I and Maxwell turned around only to see furious Alex walking out in rage."Who cares?" I whispered while Maxwell half shrugged and wr both went out separate ways.*"We demand to see your Alpha!" These words kept replaying in my head and I fought the urge to ask what the person wanted to see me for. I stood up looking around the familiar but not familiar place until I realized I was in my room and technically, I just woke up from a dream. I got distracted by the noise coming from the pack members, something like an argument but it became tensed and I started hearing cries then I realized a war has actually broken out.But why? Who would dare raise a war against us?I had already jumped out from bed and grabbed my sword. Anger and bitterness flushed through me as I saw some servants laying dead on the ground. What the hell is happening?Yesterday, I was informed of a fake news about war and today.... Today a real war is ongoing. Hatred flash
**I was going to walk out and get rest to be able to proceed everything that was happening.I'm confused, I don't know or understand what's going on.Who's the real enemy? The unknown man or the council of elders, Sonia and Alex? From my past life, Alex, Sonia and the council of elders where my foes. Sonia who keeps lying that Alex is her cousin meanwhile her lover, Alex who wants to ascend the Alpha throne, the council of elders, betrayers... Maxwell was the only ally revealed to me. Who is this man? What does he want the spectra for?As the pack members dispersed, I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. Well, everywhere looks okay now. We performed a funeral for the deceased not without Sonia trying to force words out of my mouth. Who was this mysterious man once again? Those runes on his face clearly tell that he's a rouge, a rebel... Everything evil lurks around him. What's the significance of the spectra? I knew i had to get to the bottom of this. I called a meeting with
Jenna's POV I woke up to an empty space beside me, the familiar ache in my chest returning. It had been three days since I last saw Roberto, and his absence was suffocating me. I tossed off the covers and got out of bed, my feet padding softly on the cold floor. The pack house was quiet, the only sound the distant hum of the refrigerator in the kitchen.I made my way to the living room, scanning the room for any sign of Roberto. But he wasn't there. I checked the kitchen, the dining room, even the backyard, but he was nowhere to be found. A knot formed in my stomach as I realized he wasn't in the pack house at all.Julianna's smug face flashed in my mind, her constant jabs and snide comments echoing in my ears. She had been relentless since Roberto's disappearance, making sure I knew he was gone and I was alone. I gritted my teeth, determination burning within me. I needed to find Roberto.I grabbed my phone and dialed his number, but it went straight to voicemail. I tried again, hop
"I'll go grab some few things outside." Mandy stated as she stood up to leave but I didn't want to be left all by my self."And what would happen if I do follow you?" I asked her determinedly, no matter what she has to say, I'm not staying here .. I'm fucking coming with her."Lola...." She started but sighed at the end after seeing the determination blazing in my eyes."Alright fine let's get going." I rushed to grab a blanket so I could cover my body with it. I don't know how but I just deduced that there would be cold outside."Is it necessary?" Mandy asked staring at me weirdly."Who knows." I half shrugged and walked ahead of her. Whatever delulu is going on in her head, that's her problem."Get tminside!" I heard a familiar voice say out loud the moment I made to come out. I was shocked at first even without seeing the person's face but I had to remain calm because this voice sounds familiar. Like I thought, it was Layla."What's up? You got me scared just now and what's with t
Orion's POV I watched as Nathan prepared for his one-on-one battle with the Alpha, my mind racing with concern. I had been warning him about this for weeks, telling him that it was a trap, that the Alpha was not to be underestimated."Nathan, I don't think this is a good idea," I said, trying to reason with him. "We don't know what we're up against. It could be a trap."Nathan turned to me, looking at me with pure determination. "I'm ready for them, Orion." Oh damn! I felt like face slapping when he said that.I shook my head, hoping my stubborn brother will understand. "You're not listening to me, Nathan. This isn't just about you. It's about the entire pack. If you go in there and get yourself killed, what happen do you think would happen?"Nathan's expression didn't change at all. "I'll be fine, Orion. I promise. Besides, I have to do this. I have to prove myself."I sighed, knowing that I wasn't going to be able to change his mind. "Fine," Who wouldn't listen after all but that d
