"What do you mean by that?" Cheyenne didn't delay in blocking Hazel's path.Hazel slipped a hand out of her pocket and towards Cheyenne. "Get out of my way!""I'm not in any position to ask you why you plan to kill the girl, but I really need you to tell me what's going on." Jerome butted in with a tight frown."What is going on is that I need Nebra Vause to come to me. To take me seriously! I spent hours searching for them, and when I finally found them, someone snatched them right from under my nose." Hazel replied, her hand still outstretched towards Cheyenne."I don't know what you're talking about, or what this Nebra did to you, but she's clearly the one you should be facing right now, not Freya!" Cheyenne refuted adamantly.Hazel pressed her lips together tightly. "Jerome, get your daughter out of my way before I kill her."Jerome glanced at one of his men who was the closest to Cheyenne. Before she could grasp what was going on, the man carried her out of the way."I understand
"How do you know so much and have such a good eye?" Knight raised a questioning brow."My mother's tribe had eyes for identifying anything magic. Because of that, they spent months trying to learn about anything abnormal," Nebra responded, her eyes still pinned on the house more than a hundred meters away."In other words, they are adventurous. Nebra got that trait too. The main reason why she couldn't sit still in the Council and chose to become a rogue instead," Landon added, walking up to them."Can we please talk about the important matter here?" Hunter frowned, and everyone turned around to look at him."Knight and I have spent the last few months trying to keep rogues from attacking weaker packs, securing the forests for fellow werewolves, and most importantly, trying to track down the new menace who's taking packs by force and merging it into his own. We never once encountered any heartstealer. So how the hell do we have three in this estate?""I think what Hunter is trying to
"A freaking alpha. Meaning you must be very strong. Let's fight," Jason cackled, halting his movement.But the smile on his face faded upon seeing four other alphas emerge behind her."Five alphas Vs. two heart stealers. We're outnumbered," Daniel frowned.Steele's eyes settled on the familiar figure on Daniel's shoulder, and his anger surged. "What did you do to her?""Such concern. I take it you're one of her alpha mates," Daniel raised a brow and stepped backward.After more than thirty minutes of exchanging spells with Hazel, he knew he didn't have enough magic to engage in a fight with an alpha."Let's get out of here, Jason!" He turned and bolted towards the door.Hunter, Steele, and Knight gave chase while Nebra and Landon walked towards Hazel."How surprising. Being saved by the person I've been meaning to kill. Are you sure you won't regret this?" Hazel wheezed, locking eyes with Nebra."I'm going to nurse you back to health, then I'll kill you myself. Don't think I'm being k
"That can't happen. Rose will go berserk if anything happens to her mate," Nebra stepped forward."I'm sorry, but Cheyenne isn't dying either. Besides, if Sarah Bennett accepted to kill someone else, then she should be ready to die too," Landon stated and turned his attention to her."Didn't you hear him, or are you trying to say you're stupid? She only accepted to kill Cheyenne because that was the only option Lance Nichols offered her in exchange for her freedom." A deep frown settled on Nebra's face as she met his eyes."I know, that's why I said she should be ready to die since she accepted to kill someone else. Or don't you think that's just natural karma?" Landon raised a provocative brow as well.Knight rubbed the space in-between his brows awkwardly."It's embarrassing to see two alphas squabbling over who should die and who shouldn't while they do nothing to prevent it. So can you two snap out of it?""Who would've thought the rumors were true?" Knight chuckled.Steele just l
19 Years Ago Young Hazel opened the door to the house to see the house full. It was buzzing with familiar faces which all belonged to her relatives. Surprisingly, no one seemed to notice her presence as she walked around. She found her way to the living room where she found her father and twin brother seated next to each other, all smiles. "Today will be a memorable day for our family. All thanks to my son and, of course, my daughter." Finn Hunt cheered, raising his glass of champagne and clinking it with Hezell's. "It's all thanks to you, father. If you hadn't found a way to contact Braeden Vause and talk him into doing this, none of this would've been possible. It's all thanks to you, dad." Hezell replied humbly and drowned his champagne. Finn Hunt smiled proudly and drowned his glass as well. As he dropped the empty glass on the table, his eyes happened to meet that of his daughter's. "Hazel, I didn't know you were back." He called out, causing everyone's attention to dart to
Cheyenne paced to and fro worriedly in her room.Her father left a few minutes ago after locking her in this room. It was a room with high windows, making it impossible for her to escape through them.But even if she did get to the window, from where she stood, she could see the steel bars fastened to the window. There was no way she could push that down.She got tired of walking around and slumped on her bed with a sullen face."Ma'am, your food." A maid's voice sounded outside the door.Cheyenne's eyes lit up, seeing it as an opportunity to escape. So she got up and quickly turned her back to the door."Take the food away," she said, tilting her head to the side, enabling her to see the maid's every move.However, as the maid turned around to leave, she suddenly fell to the side to reveal someone else standing in front of her.Cheyenne turned and staggered backward, seeing an unfamiliar face."Cheyenne Nichols, was it? You're beautiful, and I have nothing against you. But for my fre
"No, no, no! This wasn't for you. Why didn't you kick me away? Why didn't you hit me or even claw me, Rose?"Sarah's sobbing was the first thing Nebra and the others heard as they rushed into the living room.Rose stood in front of Sarah with her dagger dipped into her chest."Don't pull it out!" Nebra reached out to stop a panicking Hunter."She's bleeding. Why isn't she healing? She's a fucking werewolf!" Hunter sputtered, grabbing fistfuls of his hair in confusion."Lance told me of a werewolf that'd probably be protecting his sister. So, I laced my silver dagger with Lycanthroxin… just so it'd kill even if he's just scratched by me." Sarah sniffled, soiling her hands with the blood on the dagger."I didn't want any of this to happen."The whole time, she refused to look into Rose's eyes for fear it'd cause her to die faster.Rose slowly felt Sarah's face and smiled weakly. "I hate it when I see you cry. It takes away your beauty.""Well, I can't exactly help it right now." Sarah g
"Kill her? Why do you want to kill her when you're supposed to be looking after her? And what happened to your head?" Landon was the first to speak as he glanced between the two siblings."Hezell is—" Hazel tried to say but was cut short by Hezell."Don't believe a word she says. The only explanations she has ever sputtered are lies," he glared hard at her."If you know what she's about to say is a lie, then why do you bother? You look like you're scared we'd believe her."Sarah had never been a fan of Hezell's. So she immediately grew suspicious, seeing he was finding it difficult to keep still.Hezell paused briefly before shifting his darkened eyes towards her direction."Because I've had enough of her and her lies. I don't want any of you to be victims of it just like I was. So just let me kill her now. I'm sure Cleopatra wouldn't mind."Naturally, everyone else believed Hezell without a doubt. The woman in question was his sister after all and someone who had killed thousands of w
