Anna's POV Maya's voice was firm and unwavering, I could see the anger and pain in her eyes and at this point, I couldn't do anything, not even trying to comfort her. Alpha Noah was her childhood friend, losing him because of his act of stupidity was one thing and also because of someone manipulation was something else. “She made innocent wolves die, I'm not going to spare her either.” Maya said, staring at the wall. Pulling her to myself, I began to rub circles on her back as I tried to soothe her and for the next few minutes that followed, we didn't say a word to each other. For reasons best known to Lillian, she stepped out of the chamber only to return the next minute with her eyes widened in fear. “What's the issue?” I asked, staring right back at her. “Alpha Jasper is back and he is coming straight to the chamber.” She said in a whisper and almost immediately, Maya pulled herself up. “I should take my leave now before he sees me.” “Yes, please.” I said hurriedly
Selena POV The first time that I heard the rumor of Alpha Jasper going to war against the Crestwolf pack, I couldn't bring myself to believe it. I had this strong belief that he wouldn't stoop so low to engage another pack in a war all because of a woman but to my horror, he actually went to war and not only that, he wiped the pack of every single existence. It was disheartening to learn of the war but there was nothing I could do rather than to moan in silence but it didn't last though. Before the war, I had been thinking of the perfect way to eliminate Alpha Noah so that my facade would be hidden but I couldn't come up with any. Thanks to the war, Alpha Jasper had done the dirty job and now I was free. “I hope he didn't tell him I was the mastermind of the plan?” I asked, suddenly realizing the possibility of it. For a while, I was shaking with fear as I thought about what Alpha Jasper would do to me. Back at the courtroom, I had made him believe that it was all Alpha
Anna's POV Ever since the argument that happened between me and Alpha Jasper, he hasn't returned to the chambers, causing me a great deal of worry in the process. Each time I reviewed what had happened between us in my head, I never for once saw why Alpha Jasper reacted the way he did. If he had been in my shoes, I bet he would have reacted the same way. For crying out loud, the issue involved my friend who had just lost her childhood friend. Because of this, I couldn't sit back and watch. I didn't have to be in her shoes to know that she was hurted with everything that had happened and the least I could do as a friend was to comfort her in the time of her grief. To be honest, I don't think I did anything wrong in confronting him. The least he could have said to me was, stay out of the pack issues instead of trying to prove his authority. Maya must have been waiting for me because I had promised to go see her in her chambers but because of the argument we had, I was disheve
Anna's POV “Anna…” mother called but I raised my hand above my head, sending the rest of her words back into her mouth. If I had known her mission here was to spew something of this sort, I wouldn't have come to see her. At this point, I was contemplating on letting her know the reason Alpha Jasper had gone to war against the Crestwolf pack since she must have heard of it but because I didn't want to push her away from the palace, I swallowed everything in. “Mom, I think you should just stop here.” I said with a low tone. Holding her shoulders, I stared deep into her eyes but I couldn't bring myself to say a word to her. The only thing ringing in my head was Alpha Noah's death and the moment I parted my lips, I knew I was going to tell her everything and she in turn would be scared. “Anna, please hear me out. Each time I think about this, a bout of guilt hits me and there is nothing I can do about it until…” “Mother, I'd advise you to just forget about everything.” I said
Selena's POV For more than half an hour, I have been pacing through the dark alley with my heart in my mouth, hoping no one would find me here. Even though I had asked Elena to look out for me, I couldn't help but be vigilant. Trying to keep my fright abay, I began to pace to and fro the alley with my hands across my chest. Since Anna's mom was taking a long time to return from the simple mission, I felt it was going to be a success, otherwise, she would have returned long ago with the sad news of failure. But on the other hand I was skeptical, I was scared that Alpha Jasper had walked in on them and now my cover had been blown. Overwhelmed with this fear that was raking through my body, threatening to tear me apart, I rested my back against the wall, shutting my eyes tightly as a thousand ideas spiraled through my head all at once. “I wish I had access to Alpha Jasper, this wouldn't have been happening. I would have done this myself and not feared that something might have
Anna's POV After lying on my back for a while, I pulled myself up, resting my hands on my thigh. For a while now, I have been trying to forget about everything that has happened today but I couldn't. Starting from my mother's sudden visit and then her asking me to reject Alpha Jasper and return to her was something I couldn't wrap my head around easily. Not only did it smell fishy, I smelled danger approaching. At this point, I couldn't help but wonder why it was from one drama to the other with each passing day. It hasn't been long that Alpha Noah lost his life because he was trying to take me from Alpha Jasper. “And now my mother.” I muttered, throwing my hand in the air. What the hell is happening? — I can't help but wonder as I twirled my hair in-between my fingers. While I was sitting there, my mind went to Alpha Jasper and my heart fell into my stomach. I didn't want a situation whereby he would have to spill blood again all because of me. “Before anything happens
Alpha Jasper's POV After a hectic day at the study room where Beta Jacob and I were making strategies to ensure the betterment of the Moonlight Pack, I returned to my chambers to call it a day. Pushing the door in, my intention was to fall right onto the bed but instead of that to happen, my eyes lingered to the door leading to the bathroom and I saw Anna, standing in front of it, a towel tightly strapped on her chest. Just staring at her made my dick throb inside my pants. Without thinking twice, I closed the gap separating us and at once, pressed my lips against her soft ones. Anna on her part didn't restsun herself from giving into my kisses and touches. She was moaning as I allowed my hands to roam all over her body. Digging her hand into my hair, she began to tug on it as she pressed her body tightly against mine, her already erect nipple poking my chest. At this time, she was bare, the towel had long fallen off her body. Moaning into her mouth, I allowed my fingers t
Alpha Jasper's POV Now leaning against my chair in my study room, I had my legs crossed on the table with my eyes tightly shut. Right now, the only thing on my mind was Anna and it was all about making her happy. Lately, I had noticed some changes in her emotions which I was still finding it hard to pin point. My curiousity even got me to the point that I had to make enquiries from Lilian who also complained of her mood swings. “Maybe … maybe not.” I muttered, shaking my head sideways as I hit my fist against the table. Cranking my head to the side, I exhaled only to resumed brainstorming. “My lord…” Beta Jacob's voice rang in my head and at once I shot my head towards. If he hadn't spoken, I had totally forgotten that I had company. “My lord, I have been waiting for your response on the issue at hand. It is crucial and the sooner we fix it, the better for us.” “And that is?” I asked, staring at him with a raised brow. “The rogues. They are almost infiltrating the pack, th
