~Leah Pov~I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Blake, my husband, was being held captive by the black bird wolves pack, and my own mother, Amanda, was supporting their actions. I confronted her, asking how she could do such a thing."Why would you support them?" I asked, my voice shaking with anger and confusion."Because they know what's best for the pack," she replied coldly."But Blake is my husband," I said, my voice rising. "How could you do this to him?"Amanda's eyes narrowed. "He's not your husband. You tricked him into chosing you over Sophia."I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "That's not true. Blake chose to marry me because he loves me.""He rejected Sophia because I feed him that you have a power Sophia doesn't possess," Amanda spat out. "You should be grateful for what I've done for you."I felt a wave of anger wash over me. "I never asked you to do anything for me," I said, gritting my teeth. "I wish you had died instead of Sophia's mother."Amanda's eyes fla
~Sophia Pov~I entered the bathroom and tried to turn on the shower, but nothing happened. I realized that there was no water coming out. I didn't want to disturb Derick, who was on an important call, so I decided to use one of the bathrooms downstairs. After taking a quick shower, I wrapped myself up with a towel and started drying my hair.As I was flipping my hair, my leg slipped, and I almost fell. Suddenly, I felt someone holding me from behind. I turned and saw Lucas, who had caught me before I could fall. I let out a scream and quickly rushed to my room, feeling embarrassed.After a few minutes, there was a knock on my door. I opened it and saw Derick, who looked panicked. Lucas had told him what happened to me. My cheeks turned red with embarrassment, and I told Derick that I was fine. He then asked me to go downstairs for dinner, and I followed him.At dinner, I couldn't look Lucas in the eye. He seemed different, and I wasn't sure what to make of it. During the meal, he pass
~Mia Pov~I couldn't help but feel uneasy as I paced around the small cabin. Leah had been gone for a while now, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. What if she had been caught by the black bird wolves? What if they had found out where we were hiding?Blake, who was sitting on the couch and reading a book, suddenly looked up at me. "What's with all the pacing? You're making me dizzy."I stopped and faced him. "I'm just worried about Leah. She's been gone for a while now and I'm afraid something might have happened to her."Blake rolled his eyes. "Leah can handle herself. She'll be fine.""But what if she's not? What if they caught her and found out where we are?" I exclaimed, my voice rising with panic.Blake stood up and grabbed my shoulders, staring at me intently. "Mia, you need to stop worrying. It's not helping either of us. We have to think of a plan to protect ourselves and strike back at the black bird wolves."I looked down, feeling guilty for causi
Derick called for pack meeting, we'll gathered when the silence was deafening as Derick and Jessica continued to stare at each other, their expressions tense. I could feel the tension building up between them, and I knew that this was not going to end well.Suddenly, Derick turned to me and asked what I thought. I hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to say. On the one hand, I knew that we needed to be careful, especially after what had happened with Lucas. On the other hand, I couldn't ignore the fact that Mia was in need of help, and she was one of us after all."I...I don't know," I stammered. "I mean, I understand why you're hesitant, Derick. But at the same time, Mia needs our help. She's one of us, and we shouldn't turn our backs on her."Derick sighed heavily and ran a hand through his hair. "I know," he said finally. "But we can't just blindly trust anyone, especially after what happened with Lucas. We need to be cautious and make sure that we're not putting ourselves in dan
Days passed, and the whole pack was still in shock over Jessica's death. We held a funeral for her, and it was the saddest day of our life. Mia stood far off from the group, tears streaming down her face as she remembered all the good times she spent with Jessica when she was still alive. I could tell she was feeling guilty about not being there to help her friend when she needed it the most.As we buried Jessica's body, Derick gave a eulogy, speaking about how much Jessica had meant to us all, and how she would never be forgotten. I stood next to him, holding back tears as I listened to his words.After the funeral, we all went back to our lives, but things were different. There was a heaviness in the air, and the pack was quieter than usual. I couldn't help but feel that we had lost a part of ourselves when Jessica died.Days turned into weeks, and we continued to train and prepare for any future attacks from the black bird wolves. But there was no news of them, and we were left won
As I watched Derick slowly regain consciousness, my heart felt like it was about to burst with relief. After all that had happened, seeing him alive and breathing felt like a miracle."Derick!" I exclaimed, rushing to his side.He looked up at me with a weak smile. "Sophia," he said hoarsely.I helped him sit up, holding his hand tightly as he struggled to catch his breath."I'm sorry," he said, looking at me with regret in his eyes. "I should have listened to you about Mia. I never thought she would betray us like that. I saw her running away with the black bird wolves.""It's okay," I replied, trying to comfort him. "We'll deal with it later. Right now, you need to rest."But even as I spoke those words, I knew that things were far from over. Derick and I had a bond now, one that had been forged by the thunderstorm and the realization that we were true mates. But I wasn't ready to accept that bond, not after everything that had happened.I remembered the pain of betrayal, the hurt o
I sat down in the garden, when Derick walked up to me and sit beside me. I couldn't help but feel the intense chemistry between us. Despite everything that had happened, we had found a way to connect on a deeper level.Derick's hand was resting on my thigh, and I felt my heart skip a beat. I turned to look at him and found his piercing blue eyes staring back at me, full of love and adoration.Without thinking, I leaned in and pressed my lips to his, feeling a jolt of electricity run through my body. Derick responded with equal fervor, his arms wrapping around me as we deepened the kiss.As we pulled away, I felt a blush rise to my cheeks. "I'm sorry," I whispered, feeling embarrassed."Don't be sorry," Derick said, his voice low and husky. "I've been wanting to do that for a long time."I smiled and rested my head on his chest, feeling safe and loved in his arms. We sat in comfortable silence for a while, just enjoying each other's company. After our passionate embrace, Derick and I
Amanda was seething with anger as she stormed into Miranda's private chambers, interrupting the lavish pampering session the Alpha was receiving. The scent of rose petals and lavender filled the air, but Amanda barely registered it as she confronted Miranda who had imprisoned her daughter."What do you want, Amanda?" Miranda sneered, her eyes narrowing."I want my daughter back," Amanda spat, her fists clenched at her sides. "Why have you locked her up? What crime did she commit?"Miranda's lips twisted into a cruel smile. "Your daughter set free her husband, Blake. She broke pack law and must face the consequences."Amanda's eyes widened in shock. "Blake? But he's dead!"Miranda shrugged. "He's not dead, just imprisoned. And your daughter helped him escape."Amanda's heart sank. She had no idea that Leah was involved in Blake's escape. But she couldn't just stand by and let her daughter suffer for it. "Please, Miranda, I beg of you. Set her free. She's just a young girl who made a mi
~Sophia~The MC took the mic, his voice booming through the venue. "Let's welcome the CEO of the party ball roll, Alpha Eduardo!" The crowd erupted into applause, hands clapping in unison. Alpha Eduardo made his way to the podium, his presence commanding the room. He collected the mic, his gaze sweeping over the eager faces before him."I welcome you all to the ball roll party," he began, his voice steady and confident. "But this year, ball roll will be different. You know, before, millionaires became billionaires by winning a ticket. But for tonight, you will all win more than money."I turned to Derick, a sense of curiosity and apprehension gnawing at me. "What is he up to?" I whispered, my eyes fixed on Alpha Eduardo.Derick's eyes narrowed, a thoughtful expression on his face. "Just like I thought," he murmured. "He might be up to something."Suddenly, a voice whispered urgently behind us, sending a shiver down my spine. "I don't think I can stay here. We need to leave now!"Deric
~Alpha Blake POV~ I found myself back in the underground chamber, a hint of relief and anticipation in my chest. Derick and Sophia had surprisingly agreed to my proposal, and I was determined to use this opportunity to my advantage. The power balance had shifted, and I would try to manipulate their followers to support my cause.Positioned next to me, Derick's loyal rogues appeared guarded. They weren't willing to let their guard down, which I understood perfectly. I had caused their Alpha considerable trouble and hurt, and now it was up to me to rebuild their trust."Hey, you guys care for some wine?" I inquired with a friendly tone, trying to ease the tension in the room. They exchanged cautious glances, and one of them replied, "No, thanks."I noted their reluctance to engage with me on a personal level. It was clear that they were maintaining their professionalism, and perhaps a hint of suspicion lingered. I decided to press on, breaking through their defensive barriers."Come on
Alpha Eduardo's presence loomed over our mansion once again, his towering figure casting a shadow of authority. Unbeknownst to him, Blake was concealed, hidden away from his prying eyes.Alpha Eduardo sniffed the air, his nostrils flaring as he detected the distinct scent of a wolf. His brows furrowed with rage, and he commanded his rogues to search every corner of the mansion. "Find Blake! If he's here, I will make Derick pay for his treachery."The rogues, obedient to their Alpha's command, scoured every room, their eyes darting with intensity. They turned over furniture, opened closets, and investigated every possible hiding spot, but Blake remained elusive.Alpha Eduardo's impatience grew with each passing second. "Where is he?" he growled, his voice laced with frustration. "Bring him to me, or I will tear this place apart!"The rogues returned empty-handed, their expressions filled with disappointment. "Alpha, we have searched every inch of the mansion. There is no sign of Blake,
~Sophia Pov~Derick and I found solace in the peaceful haven we had created for ourselves, as we go on vacation beside ocean. The Moonstone Pack flourished under Derick's wise leadership, and together, we basked in the tranquility that had eluded us for so long."You know, Sophia," Derick said, a smile playing on his lips, "it's refreshing not having to constantly watch our backs."I chuckled, savoring the newfound freedom. "Indeed, Derick. It's a welcome change to be able to enjoy our lives without the constant threat of Blake and Mia looming over us."We strolled hand in hand through the lush, sun-kissed meadows surrounding our pack's territory. The soft rustle of leaves and the melodious songs of birds filled the air, creating a symphony of serenity."Remember when we used to fight tooth and nail just to survive?" I mused, a hint of nostalgia in my voice.Derick nodded, his eyes filled with a mix of pride and determination. "Those days are behind us now, Sophia. We've come a long w
The wind whipped through the car, carrying a heavy silence between us. Eventually, I mustered the courage to break it."We can't run forever, Blake," I spoke softly, my voice tinged with a mix of fear and determination.Blake glanced at me, his eyes filled with a mix of frustration and resignation. "I know," he admitted begrudgingly. "But right now, we need a plan. One that doesn't involve crawling back to Derick and Sophia."I nodded, understanding his reluctance. "Agreed. We can't rely on them anymore. We're on our own."Suddenly, the realization struck me like a bolt of lightning. "Wait," I exclaimed, my voice tinged with a glimmer of hope. "There might be someone who can help us."Blake's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "Who?""The Crescent Pack," I replied eagerly. "They're neutral in this conflict, and they have the resources and strength to stand against Alpha Eduardo."A hint of intrigue flickered in Blake's eyes. "Do you think they'll listen to us after everything that's happ
The weight of our impending battle with Alpha Eduardo bore heavily on my mind as I paced the dimly lit room. Desperation led me to suggest an unlikely alliance with the Moon Stone Pack, knowing that their strength could be crucial in our fight against the tyrant alpha. The weight of my suggestion hung heavily in the air as Blake's fury flared, his grip tightening around my neck. His eyes glowed with anger, and for a moment, I feared he might do something irreversible. When he finally released me, I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself."Listen to me, Blake," I urged, my voice resolute. "I know our history with Derick and Sophia is complicated, but this isn't about pride or past grudges. Alpha Eduardo is a true threat, and we need all the help we can get."Blake's face contorted with frustration, but he seemed to consider my words. "I can't believe I'm even considering this," he muttered, rubbing his temples."It's not easy for any of us," I admitted. "But desperate times call
~Mia Pov~I was driving along the highway, my senses on high alert as I noticed a black luxury car tailing me. Suspicion gnawed at me, and without hesitation, I veered off onto a secluded road leading up to Hill Mountain. If someone was following me, I wanted the advantage of surprise.My heart raced as I parked my car in a desolate area surrounded by dense bush. I remained inside, gathering my strength and preparing to confront whoever lurked outside. Thoughts raced through my mind—could it be Derick and Sophia, sending someone to keep an eye on me? But I couldn't catch a whiff of their scent, raising my suspicion further.Stepping out of my car, I failed to check my side mirror, a mistake I would soon regret. Before I could react, a force struck me, and darkness enveloped my consciousness. When I regained awareness, I found myself confined within the confines of an opulent mansion. The decor screamed luxury, but everything was drenched in black and gold, reminiscent of the Black Bir
The air was thick with tension as we mourned the loss of Professor, our grief intermingling with a burning desire for justice. Derick, consumed by a righteous fury, vowed to avenge Professor's untimely demise and ensure Blake paid for his sins.Derick's eyes blazed with a fiery determination as he confronted Blake, his voice dripping with disdain. "You took everything from us, Blake. You manipulated and destroyed innocent lives, and now you've taken Professor's life as well. I won't let you get away with this."Blake sneered, his face contorted with a mix of arrogance and malice. "You were always so predictable, Derick. It's amusing to watch you play the hero. But mark my words, your fate will be no different than that of your precious Professor."As their words clashed like swords, a sudden commotion echoed through the mansion. Mr. Isaac, a man who had once been a trusted ally, stumbled into the room, panic etched across his face. He sought sanctuary with Derick, knowing that Blake w
Professor remember that after sighting Blake, he jumped out of the mansion window to escape because he was scared of what Blake might do. But luck is not on his side, as Blake kidnapped professor and took him to his mansion.Blake flip out his fang fingers and wanted to kill professor, but professor beg for his life and Blake tell him that he will let professor go on one condition. He should bring Derick's head to him, professor agree to this without thinking twice just to safe himself. Professor snapped out from his thoughts.The sudden reappearance of Professor, coupled with his evasive behavior, left me questioning his true intentions. I couldn't shake the feeling that he was keeping something vital from us, something that could potentially jeopardize our mission.I decided to confront Professor, desperate for answers that would put my troubled mind at ease. With a heavy heart, I made my way to his lab, hoping to find the truth buried within his experiments and notes.Entering the
