Jane’s POV“You remembered. Good. Now you’ll be the one dead after I hit you with a punch from this drug.”He went ahead to inject himself as I zipped into him to end the man before his men attacked me at once.I used my superior strength and speed to dispatch them easily before something streaked past me, punching me into the face as I was thrown into the wall, cracking it with my body.I struggled to my feet but failed. That punch had really broken a lot of things inside me but I pushed past my limits, getting to my feet.When I had gotten up, I looked at him as he cracked his knuckles, his clothes tearing as his body bulked up. He grew into his wolf self, his veins being visible through his dark fur as his eyes glowed green while his fangs had green liquid dripping from them.This fight was going to take a lot out of me but I was ready to handle myself.He zipped into me as I sidestepped, punching him with a short hit which had him groaning in pain. I lunged at him with my sword wh
Ethan’s POV“What stupid… who told you that nonsense?” Sinclair growled. He wasn’t happy hearing what I had said to him. “I don’t know…” I tried saying as he banged his hand on the table.“Don’t say you don’t know. Don’t push your luck Ethan. I could easily have you arrested for saying something like this against her and I would lock the prisons and toss away the keys. Don’t test me.”“She doesn’t care for you. She doesn’t even respect you enough to tell you that you are not important. What sort of woman would do that to you or? I’m pretty sure by now she has left the pack and is with a guy who is ripping off her clothes and…”His rage has the table flying out of the way as he violently grabbed my neck. Immediately, I was raised into the air, my feet dangling from my position.I could feel his grip getting stronger by the second as I fought to stay alive. He was stronger than I would have liked. I still had the drugs in my system. If push came to shove I could defend myself which was
Sinclair’s POV“I’m with… a friend,” I heard her say just as my heart started to beat harder in my chest.Something was off and I could not put my hand on what it was.“Where are you? Are you in the pack?”She didn’t say anything as the call cut short.I groaned in rage with Ethan joining me.“What did she say?” He asked as I looked away. I didn’t know how to tell him he was right even if it was only a part of the truth.“With the way you’re avoiding my gaze I can say that you found out the truth and now you’re pissed,” he said with a light chuckle.“This isn’t funny.”“I know, I know,” he raised his hands in surrender as I wondered how he knew about this.“And you about her leaving the pack, how?” I asked. “Is this a part of your ploy?”“Seriously, you’re going to out this on me? Come on,” he raised his hands to show his innocence. “I just have evidence that she’s been lying to you this whole time.”Now I was invested in what he had to say.“What evidence?” I asked as he handed me a
Jane’s POVI had to be smart about this and give off clues so he would help me out of this mess.“Where are you?” Now his tone was getting aggressive as he wanted to know my whereabouts.“I’m with… a friend,” I said after looking at Damien who released his claws and threatened to kill me.“Where are you? Are you in the pack?” he asked. I was about to answer when Damien cut the call, tossing the phone away. “What are you doing?! He’s going to find me.”“We’re counting on it,” smiled Damien before leaving the room.I could tell a plan was underway.Sinclair looked at me with a victorious smile on his face.“It feels good to win,” he laughed. “Now, let’s get back to the situation at hand, shall we?”“What do you want?” I asked in anger. “Why am I here?”“What I want is for you to shut the hell up and listen to me or I will call in Damien to take out your hands. He'll be really glad to do that.”With the way he threatened me and got out a sword which he held to my neck, it was evident eno
Sinclair’s POVBecause of the past, I had promised to be a better man who would be by her side forever. I even promised to go to war for her and take down her uncle, Sullivan whom she had claimed was the cause of her parents death.Now I felt like such a fool that had wasted my time loving her. Why would she do this to me?I felt like such a fool.I had not loved Victoria the way I had loved Jane before and now I was angry at myself for leaving Victoria for Jane.Victoria had been a terrible person but not to me. She had not treated me like this.I told myself I would not trust anyone like her or love anyone after being with Victoria, but here I was feeling hurt and so much pain after being with Jane.“Why?!“I know this is a bad time to also bring up the second news but I think you should know about it,” Ethan said.“What is it?” I growled.“Jane, Rome and Sullivan plan to kill you in the attack you want to place against her own pack.” I wondered how he knew but information traveled
Ethan’s POVMaking plans to take him down was too much of a hassle but if I wanted to bring him down I had to be creative with my plans.I could challenge him to a battle while I had the drugs in my system. I could poison his drink or food. I would call spies to choke him while he slept. I would do anything to make sure he was out of the game. I didn’t care what methods I used, so long as I won the fight.“Wipe that smirk off your face,” he groaned to me as I knew I had smiled while making my internal plans. I cleared my throat and stood my ground. I had forgotten that I was still before him and had broken character.“What about the witches?”“What about them?”“Are they joining us in the battle?”“No.”“I doubt the witch leaders would accept you going against the Luna.”“Then they should challenge me. Besides, don’t tell anyone of my plans or I will have your head for it.”“You still want us to attack the pack now?” I asked. “Maybe we should…”His tight grip to my throat was swift an
Ethan’s POVI was mad that Sullivan would ask such a favor of me when he was to be ready for anything. Did he think I was playing here? I hoped he would not mess up my plan.“Don’t argue with me, Sullivan.” I sighed. “I know what I said but I can’t stop the alpha from thinking of war when he clearly wants it. You should be ready to fight.”“Alright,” he agreed before I called Damien who seemed to be having the best time of his life in a bar with his men.“What is it?” he growled.“Don’t start with that. The alpha would soon be coming for you like we planned. Make sure your men are situated in Sullivan’s pack like we arranged.”“Now? He’s coming now?”“Unless you have something else doing within the hour that doesn’t involve the pack being burned down to the ground then yes. He’s showing up in the pack within the hour. Get ready to fight. I already told you about it earlier.”“Yeah but it was about the mountains and not really…”“Don’t argue with me. Just get the job done.”Things shat
Jane’s POV“Damien!” Sullivan growled in anger. The old man was being very careful with his steps. “Say nothing of our plans or it would be your head.”Plans. What plans? Now I was curious as to what they were trying to achieve. “What are you doing here?” I asked Damien. “Aren’t you supposed to be doing something better with your life like overdosing on those drugs or something?”He laughed, seeing how vulnerable I was.“How about I carve a little hole in your head and see how funny it is?” he approached me, ready to stab me as Sullivan intervened.The old alpha took the knife Damien had brandished and tossed it to the door.“Not yet,” he growled. “Focus on the plan.”“And what plan is that?” I asked as the men looked at me.“Focus on not dying first,” Sullivan said. “You’ll need it by the time we’re through with you.”“So what do we do now?” asked Damien. “Because we really need to either be on our way to welcome the guests we have or we can stay here and keep having this useless co
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,
