Richard’s POV:

The date was going well for a start.

Arielle and I walked to my home, where I had left specific instructions for the maids to take action on.

Hopefully they were able to accomplish everything with no issues.

“Penny for your thoughts,” Arielle spoke up beside me. I noticed that she had been giving me curious glances for a while since we had met- or rather, since I had come to pick her up at the front door of the clinic.

“Are my thoughts only worth a penny to you?” I asked her with my tone conveying a mock hurt. Her curious look morphed into an amused one and she let out a smile.

“I’m not sure yet. You’ll have to tell me what you’re thinking in order for me to decide,” she replied back in a teasing tone.

You’re being talkative tonight, I told her through the mind link with a smile on my face.

Her blue eyes sparkled, and though there was some shock in her expression, she nevertheless replied.

And you’re not talking much tonight, she told me.

    Arielle’s POV:I had to admit, I was more than a little pleasantly surprised about how the date was going.A picnic. It had been like what I was expecting out of Richard. As I had mentioned to him, it was such a romantic setting. I had definitely not thought that Richard, the strong and stubborn Alpha with such a dominant personality, would do this.Still, I liked it, a lot more than I could ever express.The food had also been delicious, and we had eaten it in comfortable silence. It had simply been scrumptious, and I had found myself swallowing every bite with relish.Now that we were done eating, I watched as my mate gathered up the dishes and placed them back in the picnic baskets where they had come from.Letting out a sigh, I looked around. The place was simply beautiful.“Enjoying yourself?” I heard Richard ask, and I turned my head slightly, glancing out of the corner of my eyes at my mate.He looked incredibly handsome, with his face glowing due to the candles lit around thi

    Richard’s POV:It was 9.30pm, and I had to admit, a part of me was incredibly distracted, still thinking about the plan that Devin and I had made. Less than three hours until midnight, until when I would enact that plan and take revenge for Leon or one of his Rogues attacking my pack members.Yet, I had been able to push the thoughts of attacking the Rogues in the dead of night out of my head, because Arielle was with me. I had put my all into all of this, the entire date.And now I was facing an interrogation from my own mate.The silence that reigned in the courtyard was now a tense one, unlike the previous atmosphere of romance that Arielle and I had shared before.I still had not said anything in response to her question about Devin and his attack, so she turned away from me, scoffing. Her hair was a haloed red in the golden lights of the candles behind her.“You haven’t said anything yet, Richard,” she broke through my mired thoughts with her voice. She sounded a little off, as i

    Richard’s POV:The mate bond continued to burn even an hour later, as I sat on a couch in my study. Darren would be here soon, as I had promised to send him a message when the date was over and done with. Yet, instead of thinking about the damned mission, all I was thinking of was what a disaster I had made on this date with Arielle.I was brooding, yes I admit that. It was hard not to, especially with how much of a fool I had acted.The image of Arielle looking teary-eyed and begging me not to lie to her about anything, was still carving a hole into my heart.Damn it, Richard.Why had you done that?Why had you made her feel like that?Why had you done that to her?I was berating myself on the inside.A knock came on the door and I frowned to myself, not even bothering to look at the door when it opened.“Richard, how was the-“I cut my best friend off with a glare in my eyes as he entered my study. As soon as he caught the look, I noticed just how tense he suddenly became.“Darren,

    Richard’s POV:I set out for the forest at just a few minutes to midnight.The entire pack compound was completely quiet, and I could not hear even a sound. As I walked to the edge of the forest, I kept out of the streetlights shining down and instead kept to the corners of the streets, where I could easily blend in with the shadows.The clothes I was wearing - the ones that Darren had procured for me - were coated with a different scent other than mine. It was specifically for the purpose of this mission, so that no one would be able to identify me as the one to attack tonight.As I kept on walking through the forest, my senses were on high alert. I could hear every sound of the crickets, every rustling of the leaves of the trees, and every other sign of ice in this vast forest.I was also careful to walk as stealthily as possible, so that not even a sound came from me. My breathing was slow and steady, and I didn’t make any untoward sound that would give away my location.Knowing whe

    Arielle’s POV:Why had he done this to me?I left Richard’s home and ended our date with tears threatening to spill forth from my eyes. They prickled incessantly, just like the mate bond in my heart.When I got back to my suite, I flung the jacket I had worn on the floor and removed my heels from my feet, darting to my bed and huddling under the covers. Sobs ripped from my lips as I shut my eyes tightly. But that didn’t stop the tears from spilling down to my cheeks, like twin streams tainted with sorrow and pain.I was such a fool.Even as I laid down, my chest didn’t stop hurting, and I pressed my hand to it now, feeling my heart beat so fast through my rib cage as tears kept on flowing down my cheeks.I was such a damn fool to trust Richard. Why was he lying to me? Why was he doing this to me?Why had I let him?I felt anger now, aimed at myself. Why had I trusted him?Even after everything that had happened with Leon and the past that I had shared with the Rogue, I had still been

    Richard’s POV:She was maddening, and somehow I wanted her more.I had woken up late today because of the fact that Darren and I had ended up having to discuss the possible fallout from my attack on one of Leon’s Rogues. But that wasn’t on my mind now. In fact, I had gotten up with nothing in my mind but my mate, and I was focused on figuring out how I could make it up to her.I had decided that it was best to tell Arielle everything, and I had also given Darren permission to do the same with Lilian as well. They deserved to know, as our mates, and Arielle of all people deserved to know that she had my trust, as well as my love.Having woken up very late & forewent my morning run and decided to have a shower quickly, before I left for the clinic this morning.As I entered the shower, I tested the mind link again, hoping against all odds that she would have let down the wall that she placed between us, and talk to me.Arielle, I called her name in the mind link but for no answer in res

    Arielle’s POV Hearing those words from Richard caused a kind of tremor within me.Leon.Leon and his Rogues had been circling our borders? The borders of the Redding Pack?All this time, he had been near.I wasn’t stupid; it didn’t take long to connect the dots as Richard kept on talking.Devin’s attack had to be related to Leon’s Rogue group being at the Redding Pack borders.He had likely been the one to attack Devin. Or at least, he had definitely given the orders.I don’t know what came over me then; all of a sudden, the thought of Leon coming for me was a threat. My knees felt so weak, and my heart began to beat faster and faster as I tried to breathe calmly. I was deaf to the rest of the things that Richard was saying, as everything faded to the background.Oh great moon goddess, I thought desperately, my throat feeling clawed up from the inside.I didn’t know when I fell.But what I knew was that as my legs failed me, I felt like someone had caught me.Richard had caught me.H

    Arielle’s POV The rest of the morning passed slowly after Richard left my side. He had walked me to my office door, before he finally left.He had even held my hand all the way down to my office. The patients who had arrived had definitely gotten a look at the both of us, and for sure I had an idea that they would be gossiping about me and their Alpha for the rest of the day.I sighed to myself as the last patient for the morning left the office that day. It was already half past 2pm, and I didn’t expect to see any other patient for the day unless it was an emergency. Therefore I had the rest of my time to relax, and I was going to use it well.I bitmy lip as I began to flip through the patients files that I needed to sign off on. It would take me a long time to deal with this. Perhaps I should take a break, I thought to myself.Just then, a knock came at my office door and I whipped my head up.“Come in,” I called out, my brows knotted as I wondered who it could be at the other side

    KELEIGH’S POV My father’s claws gleamed in the light of the overhead lamp of the room as he raised his hand in the air, preparing to swipe. My breath caught in my throat as I pressed against the wall he had roughly pushed me into in a rage after he had caught I and Jake in the act of canoodling. He roared in fury as he bore down on Jake. I could understand why he was so enraged. Jake was the Alpha of the Moonlight pack, and my father was the Alpha of our pack, the Wesselton Pack. Both our packs have been in a bloody feud for so long that no one even remembered how it started in the first place. Countless wolves from both packs had died for generations over this feud. And Jake was about to be the next person. “My daughter!” My father growled at him. "How dare you!" My heart galloped with panic as I stared at the scene in front of me. My father in a state of half-shift, his clothes already partly torn from it. Jake, pinned below him, his eyes filled with so much fear and shock as he

CHAPTER ONE A knock on the door disrupted her sleep, causing her brows to crease as she rolled to the other side of the bed. She scrunched her eyes up, trying to get back to her sleep when another series of knocking came after. “Hmm.” She groaned out, her hand fumbling on the bed as she reached for the blanket, throwing it over herself and acting cozy inside of it. “You have to open the door princess,” she heard her maid say from the door, causing the frown on her face to deepen.

    Richard’s POV:This is how it ends.I transformed back to my human form, my chest bare.I looked around me, watching the Rogues being tied down around me. The death of Leon had caused an immediate and drastic drop in morale. The Rogues didn’t fight anymore, allowing themselves to be chained.Among them, were the Evans family too. They had been brought out by the warriors as per my orders.The night was still as I stood in the center of such chaos.I never knew silence could be quite this deafening.“The battle is over,” I said, looking around me with steely eyes to my tired warriors, but still victorious. I felt satisfaction in seeing all the familiar faces around me. Not many of them fell, to my joy. “We will dispose of the traitors today and rebuild our pack. This victory isn’t anything but a symbol of our strength, and our unity. For in our unity,” I rolled my shoulders back and raised my voice even louder. “We will never fall.”The cheers of my warriors were enough to dare me, and

    “No! No! Father, you can’t do this to me! You can’t do this!” A tiny voice cried out, her voice echoing through the four corners of the room.“Stand up!” A loud voice boomed through her ears and ran through her body, causing her to hold her tears.He stood up from his throne, all tall and authoritative. The royal staff in his hand touched the ground and silenced everyone in the room. He studied his steps casually, walking towards her and sending streams of shivers down her spine.“Stand up!” He ordered.She didn’t need to be told twice. She scrambled up immediately, balancing her feet and lowering her head to the ground. He raised his hand to her, and she recoiled at the thought of him hitting her head, “Stacey, you’re nothing but a weak wolf. And your presence in this pack is not needed. I regret the day I gave birth to you. And today is one of my happiest days in this pack, to finally see that you have a use for me.” He said without mercy.She clenched her fist so hard her nails pie

You’re going to be fine,” my voice broke.Tears came to my eyes as I continued to step forward. Just one step forward I told myself.Oh great goddess, please help me. A tear slipped down my cheek as I thought of what Lilian would say to me if she saw her mate like this. I couldn’t do this to her. Please Darren be alright, i pleaded in my mind.“Arielle?” It was Ethan@/ voice that made me look up. Our eyes met and I felt small as he ran over to me, his own eyes wide with shock. “What happened to him?”“What do you think?” My voice sounded bitter and rough as I responded.

I had made so much mistakes in the past few days.Now I had made the worst mistake.I had left my pack alone, at such an important time. Now they were being attacked.“Two of you go to the west gate and see what’s happening,” I ordered two of the swiftest warriors in my team.They nodded in unison and were off. We kept on going on our journey, and I began to feel dizzy for a second.At once I felt a burning sensation in my throat, as well as a sting on my arm. Then, a slash at my throat. My hands flew to check my Throat and found it unblemished.I was feeling the pain from my pack members.‘and it was a lot. I know fact, it was too much.I groaned out loud, trying to not let my sounds of pain get heard by anyone.

The alarm bells blares in my ears like a war gong, and I was left feeling helpless and lost.In reality, I was still in my office, with Meera looking meekly away from the glares of either myself or Ethan.Richard’s words came through the mind link that we shared.‘What’s going on, love? And I’m on my way. It was a trap,’ he sounded regretful, and there was a tinge of disgust punctuating his words. What had happened to make him sound like that?‘A trap?’ So this had all been planned.‘Elise and Hunter are working with the Rogues. They’re working with Leon. I think he may be on his way there now,’ he sounded like he was running while he spoke.I swallowed, the anxiety coming back in droves. Oh great goddess.In a shaky tone I replied to my mate, ‘I think he’s here right now. The alarm bells have been going off for nearly thirty minutes now.’ I paused. ‘What should

    Richard’s POV:We made our way through the shortcut that Falcon had proposed.Darren and I had quickly met with him when the team was put together, and we had decided that we would be taking that route. I didn’t think that it was certainly a trap or anything but it didn’t hurt to be prepared and use the element of surprise on our side.However much I wanted to believe that things would go smoothly with Elise and Hunter, some part of me knew that it was somehow doomed from the start. Of course I couldn’t just come out and say thy to everyone, so I kept silent. I think it was my serious expression that gave away that I was brooding, for none of my men spoke to me or questioned me at any point in time.Luckily for us that was what saved us. We were near the presumed location of Elise and Hunter and the sun was shining brightly in the sky.I heard a twig snap and my ears picked up at the sound of it.
