Back at the pack, Veronica was about to be brought before the Alpha and the people who had now heard what happened the previous night, began to gather outside the Alpha's palace to feed their eyes and their ears.

“I heard they found a strange female in Master Steve's house.” A member of the pack, Daisy, whispered to her friend, Rose, who covered her mouth, shocked.

“Does that mean he has been the one harboring the spy?” Rose asked, and Daisy scoffed.

“Isn't it obvious now?” Daisy said with a look of displeasure. “I can't believe he'll actually do something like this. I mean, I held him in high esteem.” She said further.

“Exactly. I mean, for someone who will be the future leader of the pack, this is uncalled for and it is a punishable offence.” Rose voiced her opinion on the matter.

“I even heard she has been there, living in his house, for many weeks now.” She whispered into Rose's ear.

“Really? Are you sure about that?” She inquired, surprised to hear what Daisy just said.

    As Steve rushed to Veronica, the eyes of everyone in the room followed him with every step he took. And as he got to where she was on the floor, he grabbed and hugged her, further shocking everyone.“Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Were you beaten?” Steve asked, his eyes completely focused on her, paying no attention to those who were seated. His tone filled with concern.Veronica couldn't answer, she just kept crying. A part of her was glad because Steve came to her rescue but another part of her was afraid of what was going to befall him now that they have found out that she has been staying in his house all the while.He swiftly wiped her tears and spoke calmly to her, “I’m so sorry, Veronica. It’s all my fault.”“Please don't cry.” He pleaded, whispering into her ear as he held her in his embrace.At that moment, it was as if they were the only ones in the room because every other person was totally shocked, and dumbfounded.Unable to hold his anger in anymore, Alpha Marcus sprun

    “Scott?” Beta Richard yelled his son's name. “What are you doing here?” He couldn't believe his eyes, neither could he believe or understand what was going on.The rest of the council members exchange weird and strange glances with each other. Some whispered some inaudible words, while some other elders didn't say much, but their expressions said a whole lot. Even Alpha Marcus and Steve were completely confused.“What is going on right now?” Alpha Marcus finally said, turning to Beta Richard, as he found his voice.“I have no idea, Alpha. I'm so confused.” Beta Richard replied, looking truly confused.“Has he been bewitched too?” Someone asked quietly, and Beta Richard stared intently at him.“Where have you been?” Scott whispered, his voice trembling as tears flowed down his face. “I thought I'd lost you forever.”Veronica's eyes welled up, her voice barely audible. “Oh my, Scott... I thought I'd lost you too.” She wrapped her arms around him, holding him tight as tears rolled down h

    The silence in the room was deafening at that moment, heavy with shock and utmost disbelief. They were all too shocked to say a word, their eyes fixed on Veronica who was still with the guards. “See? I told you that she was not the one you were looking for. You got the wrong person.” Scott spoke up, breaking the silence in the room, his tone filled with conviction.Even Steve, who was standing at a corner, couldn't find the right words. His expression showed that he was totally lost for words. He found it shocking and surprising to believe that all the while that the warriors had gone in search of Scott in the forest, he had actually been with Veronica, and the little boy whom Veronica was worried about when he found her, was actually Scott.“Unbelievable.” He muttered under his breath. “This is really shocking.”He recalled Veronica’s frantic concern for the little boy on that day, and how she was really desperate to find him. How she was worried that something bad had happened to h

    “You don't mean that, right? Steve, are you joking?” Councillor Maxwell asked him, trying to confirm if he heard him right or not.“I'm sorry, sir, but I'm not joking. Megan knew about Veronica too.” Steve replied, sounding quite disappointed in himself. “She didn't want to do it initially, but I somehow cajoled her into doing it. I'm so sorry, sir.” Steve bowed his head, avoiding Councillor Maxwell's angry and disappointed gaze.“How long? How long has she known?” Beta Richard inquired and Steve took a quick uncomfortable glance at Megan's father before answering Beta Richard’s question.“Since the morning after I brought her into the pack.” He revealed, and they all mumurred, while Councillor Maxwell’s head was bowed, avoiding the mocking eyes of the others.He had put too much trust in his daughter, making him boast of how sure he was that she would never be involved in such an act, but now it turned out that he was totally wrong. So he couldn't face the others in the room. The on

    Megan stood in front of her father, looking confused. She knew he was really mad at her but she didn't know why exactly.“Has he found out? Did Steve or did Veronica tell him that I knew about her stay in Steve's house?” She thought, as she asked herself a series of questions, which she eventually had no answer to.“I'm sorry, dad, but I really don't know what you're talking about. What did I do? Did something happen at the palace?” She said to him, her voice filled with confusion.“Don't you dare lie to me, Megan!” He snapped at her and she shuddered.“I'm not lying to you, dad. I don't know what is going on. Please, if you'll just tell me what happened exactly.” She pressed, hoping to get a hint of what he was talking about.“Silence!” He snapped at her again. “Did you actually think I wouldn't find out? You actually thought I wouldn't be able to find out, right?” He scoffed, and shook his head, throwing her into further confusion.“You must have had so much fun, laughing and deceiv

    On their drive back home, Scott chatted away with Veronica. He had a lot to say to her, and although she was tired, exhausted and worried, she indulged him.“My mum will be so pumped up to see you.” He said excitedly, and Veronica just smiled.Noticing that her reaction was not too hyper like he thought it should be, Scott had to ask her, “What's wrong?”“Wrong? There's nothing wrong. I'm fine.” She answered calmly, with a weak smile, but the attentive Scott saw through her.“Come on, Vee. You don't look fine to me, and I can tell that you're worried about something. What is it?” He asked, with concern.“It's nothing serious, I promise you. I'm just tired.” She replied, with a weak smile.“Are you sure?”“Of course I am.” She assured him, with a wink, and he smiled.“Here, we are.” Beta Richard announced as he drove into the compound where some of the Beta's servants were waiting.“Vee, welcome to our house.” Scott said to her, beaming with smiles.“Wow,” Veronica muttered, looking ou

    “Oh, my bad. This is Veronica.” Beta Richard immediately introduced her to his wife.“Yes, mum. This is Vee.” Scott cut in excitedly.Beta Lily narrowed her eyes as she tried to figure out who the young lady with silver hair, who her family was introducing to her, was. “Okay?” She dragged her speech, waiting for her husband to explain further why a stranger was at their house. “I don't think I've ever seen this face before now.”Before Beta Richard could respond, Scott immediately jumped into the conversation, “Oh yes, mum. Do you remember Vee?”Looking confused, she answered, “No, Scott. I don't remember Vee.“Have you forgotten so soon?” He asked, with a displeased look on his face.“I'm sorry, but, yes, I have forgotten.” She replied, her eyes darting towards Beta Richard, hoping that he would bail her out.“Remember the Vee who saved him when he was lost in the forest?” He asked her.“Yeah, I remember. The one he won't stop talking about?” She asked, still not getting the point.

    ALPHA’S PALACE Steve and Alpha Marcus remained in silence for a very long while after the whole council had left. Alpha Marcus had a lot to say to him because he was in no way pleased with what Steve did, while Steve didn't really want to speak to him because he knew that they were going to end up having a misunderstanding.Seeing that the silence had lingered for too long, Steve decided to break the silence. He cleared his throat.“If there is nothing you have to say to me, I might as well just be on my way right now.” He said right after clearing his throat and began to leave after bowing slightly.Alpha Marcus felt like he couldn't hear properly. He couldn't believe that Steve was still trying to be headstrong after what he had done.Shocked by Steve’s words, Alpha Marcus exclaimed, “Have you actually lost your mind? How dare you try to walk out on me when I haven't asked you to leave? Huh?”“But you weren't saying anything, we've just been in silence ever since the meeting with t

    “I was more shocked than the both of you are right now, when I heard it.” Councillor Maxwell said to the already shocked men.“No way. That's some serious issue there. I never expected to hear something like this. I mean, I've always known her to be quite a handful, but not to this extent. I didn't see this coming at all.” Beta Richard voiced his concerns.Beta Richard knew Megan to be someone who wasn't too laid back, but very outspoken. So if he was told that she did something else, he wouldn't be too surprised or bothered about it.But doing something as serious as almost leading her best friend to the brink of death, was something he didn't think she could do. Not in a million years did he imagine it could ever happen.“I just hope this doesn't get her into too much trouble with Alpha Marcus.” He soliloquized.“I hope so too.” The doctor muttered, while Megan's dad remained seated, not uttering any word.“I have to go now. I have other patients to attend to, but I'll let you know

    The doctor was taken aback. For a moment, he looked confused. He didn't not understand what was going on. He wasn't sure of what part of his words threw Megan into such anguish and devastation.Unable to take the pain anymore, Megan got up and raced out of the hospital, wailing. Veronica was about to run after her, when Megan's dad stopped her.“Please leave her alone for now.” Councillor Maxwell said, and Veronica stepped aside.Trying to figure it all out, the doctor's brows furrowed as his eyes scanned the expression of all of them, and at that moment, it clicked!“Oh my goodness!” He exclaimed. “That's not what I meant, please. He is NOT dead!” He announced, almost screaming.Hearing the doctor's words, their expressions changed and they exchanged confused glances.“Are you being serious, doctor?” Councillor Maxwell asked him, with mixed feelings.He wasn't sure if the doctor said what he just said to try to make them feel a bit , or because he actually meant what he said.“Yes, I

    “Veronica!!!” They all called out to her in unison, but she was too devastated to answer.“Wait up.” Scott yelled, but she still didn't answer him.Right when she was almost at the gate, Beta Richard hurried after her and grabbed her arm, holding her firmly, but even with that, she still refused to stay still and kept fighting to be let go.“What do you think you're doing? Where do you think you're going?” He asked her, still holding her firmly, stopping her from leaving on her own.“The hospital. Please let me go.” She replied, her voice breaking and her eyes welling up with tears.“You can't just go like that. You know what? Just calm down, and wait.” He said, his voice laced with concern.“No, I can't wait. I can't just stay calm, do nothing. I have to be there.” She tried to wriggle her hand free from his grasp, her face flushing with frustration and devastation.“You have to!” He snapped at her, his voice a little louder. “You barely know your way around here yet.

    “Dad, I don't know what is going on. He suddenly coughed out blood, and now it seems like he is not breathing.” She panicked, her voice shaking with fear. Tears, pouring out of her eyes.“Dad, I'm in trouble. I killed him.” She screamed in terror.The guards soon rushed into the room, and were taken aback. The sight before then wasn't something they had thought they would see.“Sir, we should take him to the Pack Hospital. He might have just slipped into unconsciousness.” One of the guards said in a rush.“Yes, yes. Let's take him to the hospital. Carry him gently, please.” He ordered them, and they got to work immediately.“Please get up, ma'am.” They said to Megan, who had Steve's head on her lap.Seeing that Megan didn't move, and was still holding on to Steve, her father yelled at her. “Get up Megan!” She jerked in fear, and got up.The guards then went ahead to carry Steve gently, and headed outside the house, while Megan and her dad followed closely behind them. They soon got to

    “Megan!!!” Her father screamed in shock as he ducked to avoid the shattering glass.“Megan! What the hell is this? What has gotten over you?” He yelled at her, and rushed to Steve who was holding onto his shoulder in pain, and staring at the furious Megan in disbelief.“How could he suddenly choose her over me? Why would he do such a thing to me after everything we have been through all these years. After all that we've shared. How can he choose a complete stranger over me?” She cried angrily.“Wait, what?!” Her father stared at her in utter shock. “So this whole anger and violence is because he chose someone else over you?” He couldn't believe what he had just heard his daughter say.“Oh my goodness! I thought I raised you better. I can't believe this.” He said with so much disappointment.He turned to Steve who was still writhing in pain.“Are you okay?” He asked, and immediately Steve lifted his hands off his shoulder, Megan's father’s eyes widened in shock at what he saw.Steve's

    A bit surprised, he asked, “Who is the person?”“It's Master Steve, sir.” The voice replied.“Oh.” He then turned to his daughter. “I guess he is here to see you.” She shook her head in disagreement, and pulled away from her dad.“Is he here to see Megan?” Megan's dad asked the messenger.“No, sir. He specifically asked to see you sir.” The messenger answered.“Really? That's unusual.” He muttered, and looked at Megan, who looked away immediately.“Alright, tell him to wait. I'll be with him shortly.” He said to the messenger at the door, who in turn, replied, and walked away.He then turned back to his daughter, hoping to continue their previous conversation, but her expression indicated to him that she wasn't ready to say anything at that moment.Understanding her expression, he asked, “you don't want to talk now, right?” And she nodded in agreement.He sighed. “That's fine. I'll be back shortly. Let me just find out what he is here for.”He got up and left the room, while Megan cu

    For hours after Megan left, Steve sat in a chair, still dumbfounded, and unable to compose himself. He couldn't wrap his head around what had just happened. He couldn't believe that the one true friend he had literally all his life was in love with him and he didn't know.“Damn! I'm such a fool. I really am.” He muttered to himself, beating himself up about it.Even though they fought and disagreed about a lot of things, a lot of times, he still really cared about Megan, and always looked out for her all the time, and she did the same too, or so he thought.He remembered all the time when they would get into trouble when they were younger, and how they would smartly figure out a way out of every mess they got themselves into.After his mother passed away and he was depressed and hurt, Megan was the one who didn't make him feel alone, because she was always there to comfort him. And that was one of the reasons why their friendship grew stronger over the years.But now, it seemed like t

    “Wait, what?” Steve stood shocked and lost for words.At that moment, he didn't even understand what was going on. “What are you talking about? What is this?” He asked, looking as confused as ever.“How could you choose Veronica over me? How could you?” She yelled at him again, throwing him into further confusion.“Choose her over you?” His head snapped back in confusion, “What does that even mean?” Megan's eyes flashed in anger as she snapped at him,“Don't even try to play dumb with me, Steve. Stop the pretense!”“Look, Megan, you're not making any sense. What is all this? What are you going on about?” Megan’s eyes soon blazed with tears. “You're really choosing her over me, aren't you?” Her voice cracked, as she asked again.Steve's expression softened, unaware of the depth of Megan’s emotions, and unable to understand why she kept repeating the same words. “Megan, what is all this? You've been repeating these same exact words for the past few minutes. What exactly is the matter?

    FIRE DAWN PACK THREE MONTHS LATER“Phew. I can't believe we're finally done with this community service. This has been the longest three months of my life.” Megan said, as they walked slowly to Steve's house.“I also hope my dad lets me off the hook too.” She said, thinking out loud. “I've really missed going out whenever I want, I hope he ‘ungrounds’ me.” She rolled her eyes, as she kept talking to the unattentive Steve.“Also, I’ve been so bored and miserable without my phone and my other gadgets. Ughhh” She grunted as she complained.“Anyway, thank you for making the past three months easy for me. I don't want to imagine what it would have felt like without you being there.” She continued talking, not paying attention to if Steve responded or not.“To be honest, I think I would have collapsed at some point.” She added. “You and I know that I'm not built for any menial or hard labour.” She said, examining her hands, and she then chuckled.“But Steve, do you think your dad has finall
