Jane’s POV“That’s the thing Jane,” he said. “The will is missing. Someone stole it or maybe it’s here and I can’t find it. They’re your parents. I was thinking you would know where it is. And besides, why don’t you trust me? The life you’re living now I gave it to you. I made you what you are.”“Okay, this is the part where I hang up.”“Okay!” he yelled. My threats were beginning to get to him. “I’m sorry. But I really need your help with this. If you can help me work through this that would be very helpful.”I also thought deeply about this. Maybe he was telling the truth, but he was still my parents' killer. Did I need to believe whatever he would say? That was very wrong to do considering what he had done.I remembered being small and going around with my nanny. They had shown me a couple of times where my parents kept their important files, but I knew that the bastard called Sullivan must have raided the safe to get the files out of there. But if he had gotten the files out of t
Jane’s POVI stood up to pace around the room. I noticed that my hands were shaking. This was odd seeing as I didn’t usually get scared from calls like this. But I was scared.Sullivan had tortured me while I grew up under his care. He had used the lies that he was my fathers replacement and my fathers brother to brainwash the entire pack into letting me stay at the pack under his own control.I hated him for everything he had done to me. He has treated me like a slave with the entire pack not even knowing.I had been let out during my mating period and he had made sure everyone saw that I was getting mated to an alpha even if he was a terrible one at the time due to rumors.Now if I were to attack him, the pack would call me ungrateful. That I was biting the hand which fed me. The truth here being that they had seen what Sullivan wanted them to see while I would suffer in silence because they could not see my past sufferings and I had been silent throughout my time in the pack.I hat
Jane’s POVHe slammed his sword into mine, shattering the wooden weapon I held up to protect myself with. I had not seen that coming as my hope had been that the sword would protect me from damage.Just in time, I jumped two paces back to avoid any future attacks from the alpha.“Sorry about that,” he straightened up looking at his own dented sword. “These swords are too old.”“Or maybe it’s because we are wolves and we are using wood to fight?” I laughed. “How about we use our claws and fists? I’m sure our bones can take the hits.”He tossed the weapon away and gestured for me to attack him.I would not use magic against him. I would attack him head on as he wasn’t a big threat to me. He might be the alpha but after what I had learned with the witches I was very sure I didn’t need to fear him anymore. He was just another opponent to me that I could take down without trouble.We clashed into each other, punching and kicking and I found myself kicking harder than usual while he chuckl
Jane’s POVI felt great. I was finally the Luna who had united the wolf and the witches in the pack. I was the glue uniting the two species.I could use both species' powers. I was powerful enough to spar with the alpha on even terms even though he was clearly holding back.My relationship with the pack wasn’t perfect but we were still working to make it a perfect reality.While the two women argued about who was right and wrong, I had the urge to tell them about the call I had made last night, but they would advise me to not listen to Sullivan. They already hated him. They didn’t trust him or his lies.The women would tell me how much they detested him and how they preferred if I would go with Sinclair. I could play out all they would say, so I held back my words.They would not be on my side in this.Watching them bicker had me smiling. They were my mothers. They had taken over the roles of being my parents as they helped me train, take care of my children and protected the pack whe
Jane’s POVMartha got out her phone to call indigo since there was an emergency going on as the hall started to fill up with an anticipating crowd.The lunas had gone around telling people that I would be beaten to a pulp and they were to come and watch me get humiliated.“Please stop this madness,” Martha said after her call. “You don’t need to do this. Let’s talk about this well.”But I shook my head. I would show everyone how strong I was. I was not a weak Luna but a strong one. Whoever was in my way should prepare to get beaten down.The Luna’s entered with two huge men in security outfits. They were rough looking with scars on their faces.They did not look like they were here to play but I didn’t care. I would take them out without a sweat.“Are you sure this is how you want to go down Luna?” Lily stepped forward with her hands patting down her large evening gown which scraped against the floor. It’s light blue color going against the light pink of her minions. “Trust me, this w
Jane’s POVI leaned over the ring to kiss the alpha before watching him leave. The lunas were still in shock at what had happened.Jumping out of the ring in a dignified manner, I slowly walked towards the women, cleaning my hands together as my maids around started to unfold my dress and redo my hair.“I think that settles it,” I said with a smile. “Should we have this dance again?”They were baffled that I could possess this type of strength.“H-how did you do that?” Lily stepped forward with the rest of the group silent. “You are not supposed to have such strength.”I laughed. “That shows how narrow minded you are dear Luna. What do you think the job of a Luna is supposed to be?”She shrugged. “Going to celebrations, handling the babies, taking care of…”I raised a finger to her face. “That is where you have it wrong my little one,” I smiled. “You see, as a Luna, you are supposed to be at the top of the food chain with your alpha. You should be able to defend your pack alongside t
Ethan’s POVI paced around the room looking for a way to bring out my proposition to that stupid alpha. At least Sullivan was looking like a better choice.“Are you sure he’ll live up to the hype put him up to?” Damian asked with a sigh. “He doesn’t seem like much.”“I’ve heard of his legendary strength. I can’t think of a better man to subdue my brother with this drug than him,” I noted. “He might be a bit dull but it doesn’t mean he isn’t strong and capable of doing so much.”Taking up my phone, I called the man.“Hello,” Sullivan picked up.Hearing his voice made me want to puke. He disgusted me but I had no choice. If I wanted this to be a success then I needed his help. His army. Everything.If he could give me some of his men to test the drugs out on, then we would create an army like no other.“You were supposed to strike while the iron was hot,” I gritted my teeth.“I did. We had a meeting yesterday and I called her the same day. What did you want me to do?”“Kidnap or kill he
Ethan’s POV“Follow me,” the man said to me as I did so, getting into a room with him to see more drugs being created. I was amazed at how much drugs were being created here and I wondered if it would be enough for an entire army.“You see those boxes there?” He pointed to a pile of cartons by the side of the room. There were more than twenty.“What about those ones over there?” I pointed to twelve vials at the top of the shelf.“Those are special vials. For you and I. It gives immense strength, no one can come against you. Not even your brother.”I liked the sound of that and I was willing to give everything I had in exchange for my brother beneath my feet.“We’ll use that special vial as a demonstration while using that ordinary vial for the soldiers.“Whoa! What are you talking about?”I explained everything I had made with Sullivan and he didn’t like my plan at first but soon he fell for it.“Fine,” he smiled. “I believe we should go for it then.”We packed up the drugs and I call
Jane’s POV“I’m coming for you Sinclair,” I muttered before running out of the pack at high speed.With each step I took I could feel my speed and strength coming back as I zipped through the pack leaving the pack to the mercy of a rampaging Sinclair.I ran for minutes, passing a wreck site before meeting Martha and the rest of the pack on the road heading for Sullivan’s pack.“Are you okay?” she asked with indigo floating to me as I nodded.“I am.”“Where is the alpha?”“He lost control and right now he’s destroying the entire pack.”“Good for those bastards,” I heard Indigo mutter with some of the witches muttering in agreement.“Those people didn’t do anything wrong to him. The one who did was Sullivan and I’m sure he’s dead right now. Same thing goes for Ethan. He’s probably dead. Sinclair has so much anger and rage in his body that he would do anything to break through the world if possible.”“It’s the magic. He’s lost his humanity,” said Martha. “I’m guessing you used the hex.”
Sinclair’s POVShe nodded looking at the hex. She concentrated on it, using her magic to infuse into the hex.“Are you thinking of how to put it on?” I asked her as she nodded.“Just give me a moment.”I would give her the amount of time she needed. So long as I would get my super strength at the end of the day. I would rather die an alpha's death than escape a coward.She closed her eyes, putting her thumb to her mouth as she bit it and poured some blood on the hex which turned to a phone-like device with a lever.She pushed it down with two holes appearing on its side. Soon enough the holes released a lot of smoke in my direction before going out into the open.I felt my strength returning slowly.“The smoke is getting heavier,” she said to her feet.I casually stood up, breaking the chains holding me down. I was at full strength now and I could still feel my powers growing.I grabbed hold of her chains, breaking them off.“I don’t feel so bad. I mean, I can still feel my powers gro
Jane’s POVHe sighed, looking to his knees. “I even had a fight with the witches before leaving. She was trying to explain something to me and I pushed her aside in anger. I wanted to understand why you would cheat on me so I decided to come here on my own and see what was going on.”I couldn’t blame him. Ethan was a snake. Ethan had made me leave the pack anyway.“Ethan was behind this all along,” he blurted as I stared at him in shock.“He what?!”“He did so much to you that you don’t even know it’s from him. Ethan needs to be stopped permanently.”I agreed with him.I told him about the hex Martha had created for me which would amplify my powers and he was fascinated by it.“So how does this work? Do we say some magic word or do we just use it alongside your powers?”“Magic words are fine. We’ll use the magic hex like a smoke screen to escape but we have to be very careful as the hex has different sides to them.”He tilted his head. “What do you mean?”I could see his wounds were n
Sinclair’s POVNow I had to deal with my stubbornness. It had brought me to the end.The door opened again with two hefty guards getting in.They looked at me and opened my cell, dragging me by the chains out of the cell.I didn’t expect them to treat me nicely since I was going to die anyway and I couldn’t pretend how much it hurt, leaving everything in the care of my brother.He was a wrecking ball. The pack would crash in a few days.He lacked the leadership skills I had. He was impatient, unkind and crude to people. There was no way he was capable of leading the pack.I was dragged out of the building with the crowd screaming for my head to roll.The guards took me to a podium to tie me down to a ledge. There I would stay and wait for my execution to arrive.***Jane’s POVI was dragged out by one of the guards as they said the alpha was about to be killed off so I needed to see him.He dragged me out of the room like I was a child and we were out of the room soon enough, walking
Martha’s POVNow this man’s words were the last straw for me. I stood up with a frown.“Those who will ride with me to take out Ethan should follow me,” I walked to the door. “Those who choose to stay have sided with Ethan. You don’t know how dangerous you are until you have tried fighting the beasts you fear.”Walking out of the throne room made me feel weak. What if no one followed me? I thought to myself. What if I walked out and looked back only to find no one but myself? That would hurt. Everything I had given to this pack would be taken for granted. No one would see me and Indigo as leader material and I would not be chosen to lead alongside indigo again.When I reached the gate, I heaved a heavy breath, turning to see everyone from the throne room before me. Even the ones who had refused to follow were present.“You all showed up,” I smiled.One of the wolves stepped forward. “I figured since we were going to die anyway, we might as well make it mean something. The people in t
Martha’s POVMy eyes darted from big to small, taking in their sights. Anyone who moved carelessly would take in my wrath which I was glad to give off.“Anyone who has something to say would say it when the time is right. For now, I would advise you all to sit down and let her finish with the story.”Everyone settled down as I waved for the girl to continue but she told me she was done.The story was unbelievable. Sinclair, defeated? That was not possible. Even I found that hard to believe. It was Sinclair we were talking about. There was no way he would be beaten by anyone. I could not even fight with him on even grounds without taking a beating. How had he lost?Yes, she had said he was taken down by three alphas and a lot of wolves, plus he had been shot by archers who had wolfsbane infused poisoned arrows but it wasn’t a concrete story I would believe so blindly.“Are you sure of what you’re saying or you’re making stuff up?” I asked the wolves on my side for a change. “Because le
Jane’s POV“Do you even see how ridiculous you sound?” the old alpha growled. “You would die for him? You would prefer dying with him? I wasn’t even going to kill you yet but imprison you until you die but if that is the route you want to go through then so be it. I will take off your head alongside his! Is that you last wish?”“That is my last wish,” I confirmed. “I want to die alongside my alpha. I would rather go with him than be in this world without my mate.”Damien stepped forward putting his phone into his pocket. He was visibly worried by what I had said.“Are you mad?” he growled. “You seriously want to do this? You want to let everything you’ve created go just like that because of him? You would rather die for him than live? What about your children I kidnapped the last time? They don’t mean anything to you?”“Stay out of this rogue,” I growled. “It’s not like you care about me. When you chose to kidnap my children you don’t care. I suggest you sit this one out.”Sullivan fe
Jane’s POVWas this all my fault? Why had he not seen this attack? This was so unlike him.“Don’t blame yourself for it,” he laughed louder this time. “He was bound to fall someday. It was only going to take some time.”When he was done, he walked to the television, disconnected his phone and left.I was left alone for hours as the guilt penetrated my soul. I had single handedly killed the alpha and destroyed the pack.If I had actually talked with him and let him know of my plans this would not have happened.Now I had destroyed everything he had built from the ground up. I had embarrassed him and killed him. This was all my fault.Why didn’t he go to Martha and indigo? I had given him the hint to go to them. Or had Martha not told him anything?I had been captured, he was supposed to know that I would be here after talking with the witches.Now I felt really guilty and my heart sank with unhappiness. Watching those videos and seeing him in that awful state made me shed tears of sad
Jane’s POV“Ethan?!” I gasped. This was a surprise as he laughed.“Surprise.”“Are you here to rescue me?” I laughed. “I knew Sinclair wouldn’t trust that I was in the pack. These guys…”“Kidnapped you, yes, I know,” he completed with a cold smile.“Yes, and they held me back. The guy on red there is Sullivan, the other one is Damien and the…”He turned to the men and spoke to them in hushed tones as they nodded, leaving with the guard.Now we were alone, behind closed doors.“What is going on?” I asked. “What did they say? Are they going to release me? Did they say anything about releasing me?”“Jane,” he said as I looked at him. “Yeah.”“Shut up. Just shut the fuck up!”I was taken aback by his sudden outburst. I had not expected that. What was going on?“Are you okay? Did I do something wrong?”“You don’t seem to care about my feelings for you,” he sighed.“Please stop and help me.”“I seem to forget which one of us is in chains and which one is free. Because last time I checked,
