Victoria's pov“Give it to me straight Gail,” I said while taking off my coat to give to a maid. “Who is she? Where is she from? What does she want? And is she pregnant? Give it to me straight.”I had called the head maid into my room to question her and learn about the strange woman I had seen in the alphas room. There had to be an explanation for it.“I am not under any obligation to answer you ma’am,” she said with a smile. “I only answer to Alpha Sinclair.”“I am the Luna you twat.”“It has not been officially stated. You are only his mate.”“Do you dare to insult me and look down on me?”“I do not ma’am. I am only stating what we all know is true. If you have a problem with the other lady and if you have any questions then I suggest you tell the alpha about it.”“Get out this instant!” I growled as the woman bowed before leaving. I looked at the maids standing around the bed in anger. “And what are you three doing here? Get out!”They all bowed before leaving the room as I paced
Victoria“Go get me something else!” I yelled at the maid who scurried off.“Please tell me why you’re shouting at the maid is basically because of the drink and nothing else,” a voice said behind me as I turned to see my best friend, Ava.I smiled briefly before showing her a seat before me.“Here is your drink ma’am,” the maid said as I sipped it and liked this one better.“Good, now go get my friend the same drink,” I ordered to the woman who bowed before scurrying off.“What’s got you nippy today?” She smiled. “Are you okay?”“I am not,” I sighed, dropping the cup on the table. “It turns out my…”I suddenly remembered the threat Sinclair had made as I wondered if telling Ava would be dangerous.“Come on,” she noticed my hesitation. “You can tell me. It’s not like I’m someone else.”“Fine,” I sighed. “Sinclair brought a random girl into the palace to be his mate from what I can sense. Can you imagine the effrontery? He could not even respect our bond.”“Why are you acting surprised
JaneWhen Sinclair took me into the room I watched him walk to the window to stand with his hands clasped together like he was thinking.“Can we talk about what just happened out there?”I asked. “Who is she? And do I have to deal with her every single day?”“She is my wife,” he blurted as I nodded.“Your first mate,” I chuckled feeling a bit disappointed. “So I’m not even your first.”“No,” he sighed.“And when were you going to tell me about her?”“You arrived today, I don’t think you should be asking so many questions.”“I should so I would know what I’m dealing with here. If you were not available I would have lost that fight and the moon goddess knows what would have happened to me.”“Nothing would have happened to you. Now stop whining and let me think.”I plopped down stubbornly on the bed with my arms crossed. Whatever he was thinking about was extremely important but I still wanted answers.“Fine,” he smiled. “You should not be swayed by her ferocity. Underneath all that rage
JaneBut I was wrong, for when I awoke he was gone from the bed and I was alone.I decided that I was going to use that day to get acquainted with the people in the house, but it was only a matter of time before tragedy struck.I walked around the house to see that Gail was missing as well as Sinclair. The house was eerily empty today for a house that was filled up yesterday.I walked to the entrance of the house to see a maid running towards me.She looked like she was in distress and I immediately got alarmed.“What is it?!” I asked as she slowed down to catch her breath.“Madame Victoria has been caught between the reins of two horses in the barn,” she panted heavily. “She needs help. We need extra hands.”“Take me there,” I said as she ran ahead of me.I had taken in Victoria’s aura yesterday, how was she weaker than a rein? She was a werewolf with super strength, she was supposed to have taken down the entire barn if possible.I reached the empty barn to get in and see nothing bu
Jane I got back to my room, got into the bathroom and stripped my clothes. The bruises were there but I could see them healing up. Sinclair would not see them and I wouldn't have evidence that she had done anything to me. My healing factor was an active one, there was no doubt about it. I turned on a hot bath, entered the shower and started having my hot bath. When I was done, I got out and walked straight to the wardrobe. “If she wants war, she’s about to have it.” My wolf agreed with me and jumped excitedly as I decided to show her that I was not a pushover. I grabbed a sexy gown, wore it and went out of the room. I walked to the garden to sit and wait for Sinclair to show up. I would start my mately duties and I had no intentions of stopping anytime soon. “Coffee?” a maid said to me as I turned to see a maid with a hot cup of coffee. “Oh I didn’t order for…” before I could finish it, the maid poured the hot coffee on my body, scalding me and soiling my gown. I jumped out
SinclairWhen I was done with the pack business, I started for the company to see the new investors from other packs who wanted to join the pack and know how to invest in my company.We talked about all the terms in the boardroom but my mind wasn’t there.I had my mind focused on the two women — Victoria and Jane. They could easily be at war right now and I wouldn’t even know about it.I knew they would not like each other but that was something I could not avoid. Victoria had been my first mate but she was not capable of giving me children due to reasons unknown to me.Jane on the other hand was one whom I had not yet slept with and I was sure she was capable of bearing me fruit.Of course if she did not give me fruit then I would know that I was the problem but for now I needed her to bear me children.“Alpha,” someone called to me as I shuddered awake to see everyone staring at me.“What is it?” I asked.“So… do you accept that the company can merge?”Suddenly something felt wrong.
JaneWatching the gruesome, one-sided fight before me had me shivering where I laid.This was the bloodiest fight I had ever seen since the horror movie I had watched many years ago.Watching him fight… no, watching him slaughter these rogues with calmness and precision told me all I needed to know about him. He was not a pushover, he was a dangerous wolf.His speed was a mystery to me. I could see the other wolves run around but he moved like a blur to me.He made the other wolves look slow.I knew if I decided to get into a battle with him, I would not make it out alive.No one, in all my years on this earth, was as strong as this Lycan. It was here that I knew the difference between a Lycan alpha and an alpha wolf.He was a beast, a monster, a demon spawned from hell. He had no match in the world. He was in a league of his own.Within minutes of arriving, he took care of the rogues and I watched the desert drink the blood of his victims.The trauma I had experienced had me shiverin
JaneHe zipped me to the palace gates with speeds I’d never gone before.I could not do anything but close my eyes to protect them from the dust in my way.We arrived at the palace for him to drop me at the gate. “I’ll see you inside,” he said, as I stumbled around while he held me in place. The speed had been too much for me to bear and I was feeling dizzy from that.“Are you okay?” he asked. That question had been asked so many times I was beginning to think that maybe I was not okay.I nodded, getting myself up as he walked into the palace.I followed him into the palace grounds to see Victoria scowling at me.She had lost this round but I did not care. She was the loser here and not me. I walked to the shower to bathe just as I found Sinclair getting out of the bathroom with new clothes.“Where are you going?” I asked in shock.“Since you’re safe now and I clearly know you would not be leaving anytime soon, I’ve got to get to the pack to meet with some of the elders.”“You can’t
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,
