(Author's POV)

(NSFW Content Ahead)

Noah had never completely forgotten Anna. She was his fated mate and the woman he had shared his first kiss with. He remembered how innocent and pure she was. She lacked the evilness which clung to Ruby.

She was beautiful and charming without even knowing it. But the fact that her father was a killer made him blind and he treated her in the worst way possible. Anna was the kind of person who always placed other's comfort over herself. Something Ruby lacked.

Anna was gone from his life but remained like a lingering shadow in his mind, never leaving, never letting him escape.

Noah lay down in bed but sleep evaded him. From the moment he had laid his eyes on An, he couldn't help but keep thinking about Anna.

Ruby entered the room and Noah didn't even acknowledge her, too lost in the thoughts of the woman he had betrayed.

Ruby observed his face which had a distant look as if he was stuck in a memory. She took off her dress and grabbed a silk nightie. Pu

    (Anna)The way his eyes held those deep emotions for me and stared as if into my soul made my panties drenched. It was with great difficulty that I made my way to my room.I slumped on my bed with my arms spread wide while my eyes closed fantasising about his naked body. The man was a mountain of rigid muscles and all I wanted to do was ride him, feel his artistic hands to explore every inch of my body's landscape.To kiss every inch of that tanned skin of his.Alas! The man was a jerk though.Why couldn't I get him out of my head? It was like he had occupied the very crevices of my brain.I tossed and turned in the bed but sleep evaded me. It was during dawn that I could finally close my eyes and get some sleep.The next few days were spent in the same constant torture. Every time I saw Asher, my raw desires would bubble to the surface. He kept a stoic face and bland expressions whenever we would come face to face but I knew deep under that calm facade, I affected him to a level he d

    (Anna)I blinked at him trying to shove the rage down. The way his voice was trembling, I knew he was lying.Using the back of the shuriken knife I punched his temple. He fell to the ground with a shriek. For men so big they fall easily."Who sent you? Was it Ruby? Tell me the truth about where Oliver is."The man was perplexed as he got up and rubbed his temple. His companions were scrambling to their feet as well."Ruby? We don't know anyone by that name. We were sent by a man to find you," one of them responded."Who?" I asked, narrowing my eyes at him, threatening him with my knife.Who would want to come for me? Noah's name surfaced and I wondered if he had found my true identity and wanted me dead. But was he stupid enough to send these idiotic thugs my way?"Take me to him, right NOW," I demanded, kicking another one and he howled in pain. My alpha aura leaked out, even without my wolf I possessed a dominant one. Their knees shivered and their heads bowed in submission."Fine,

    (Asher)I had doubts about Anna so I asked my assistant, Haden to follow her wherever she would take Oliver out of the house. He did just the same when they decided to visit the amusement park.She cunningly went to the side when a bunch of rogues tried to snatch Oliver from his guard by shooting him in the stomach with a silver bullet. Sending the whole park into chaos.Haden intervened when they were trying to put Oliver in the van. He beat them to the pulp and rescued Oliver from them.One of them informed Haden that it was Anna who had paid them to kidnap my son. He told the guards to take them to one of our secret locations.When Haden called and informed me, I was beyond livid and hurried to be by my son's side. Oliver was pretty shaken up and he was crying when I arrived.I quickly hugged and calmed him."Don't cry, I am here. It will be alright." He clung to me and stifled his cries.I decided to take Oliver to my secret residence, another apartment I owned in a seaside condom

    (Anna)Seeing Asher visibly relax and Oliver alive, lifted a mountain of burden off my shoulders. But someone had tried to frame me, I couldn't forgive and forget."I am going to get to the bottom of this matter and once I do, heads are going to roll," I announced, staring at Asher.A hint of a smile I observed tugging at his lips at my statement. He never smiled."I am on it too. Will share the findings with you. Be very vigilant. It seems like we have some common enemies," Asher told me while getting up and calling Oliver to his side.Oliver refused and kept clutching my hand. He expectantly stared at me and asked."Will you have dinner with me? I am hungry."And it dawned on me that he mustn't have eaten anything amidst the kidnapping fiasco."You didn't eat anything?" I asked and he shook his head at me. It pained me to see that a child was left hungry because of someone's evil plans."I am starving and I would love to eat something delicious. Please, please, come with us," he ins

    (Anna)"Please! Both of you. Stop fighting. Can we have one peaceful day after everything we have been through?" Oliver asked, staring wistfully from me towards his dad.Both of us quieted down. A silent understanding passed between us."I apologise, Ollie. I didn't mean to upset you. We won't fight," I tried to reassure him as he climbed onto my lap and laid his head on my chest hugging me."I will eat with you more from now on and will take you out too once we have captured whatever enemy is after us," Asher spoke from the front as he singlehandedly manoeuvred the car and took a sharp left turn."Really? Dad," Oliver excitedly clapped and Asher grunted in approval.The boorish alpha had a soft spot for his son, I just needed to enlarge it and ensure he understood how much his presence meant to his child."Can I tell a joke?" Oliver expectantly asked."Of course!""Which letter has the most water in it?" Oliver questioned, grinning from ear to ear. I knew the answer but faked ignoran

    (Anna)His jaw was set tight upon hearing the comments but he remained tight-lipped. But I found them rather amusing and pursed mine.Did we really come off as a family of three?Oliver lifted his head and pressed a tender kiss on my cheek, startling me. His arms went around my neck as he endearingly smiled.The love and care bubbled inside me at his action and my heart completely melted. This was a different kind of love, a love I hadn't previously experienced. A loved one couldn't name but just feel with the depth of one's heart.Asher grunted at his action, it clearly didn't meet the standard he had set up for his son.Seeing his disgruntled father, Oliver leaned towards him and kissed his cheek too."Relax! Dad," he whispered to him and I had to giggle at the dumbfounded expressions that spread on Asher's face. He couldn't believe what had just happened and he couldn't hide the surprise.At least the scowl disappeared.The restaurant owner, Mr Shu appeared at that time and respect

    (Asher)After finishing talking to Haden where I told him to keep me posted about the situation. I curiously watched Anna and Oliver converse. In between our food was served and all three of us began to eat. It was delicious and my hot pot was not spicy at all.Anna clearly saw a child in Oliver but what she didn't understand was both of us were lycans.We possessed immense power, physical and mental. Both of which needed to be monitored or they could break the human part of us.We were always trained from a very young age to hide our emotions and feelings. To remain detached and focus on the tasks at hand.I had personally trained Oliver in all these departments and he was capable enough to handle and manage different tasks within the pack.At that moment, I was seeing a very different Oliver. He was completely immersed in Anna and everything she was saying. He wished to impress her with his talks of adventures.Seeing him in this light, showed that he was still a child and yet he wa

    (Anna)After we had finished our dinner, I had to use the restroom so I excused myself."I will clear the bill and take Oliver to the car. You can join us there," Asher said, taking Oliver's hand."It's my treat, I will pay the bill," I informed him, grabbing my bag."Consider it my treat, this time around. Maybe next time," Asher said and I nodded feeling slightly special to be treated by the Alpha King.Making my way to the restroom I relieved myself and then proceeded to wash my hands and face.Drying them I exited the restroom only to be blocked by a tall blonde with a neon pink peplum dress accentuating her curvy body. She wore more makeup than necessary giving her a look of a prepped-up Barbie doll and that scowl on her face screamed trouble."You are here with Mr Ludwig. What does he see in someone so plain?" She sneered and I had to let out a huff. These girls and the jealousy that stemmed from them."Simplicity, maybe he is allergic to blondes with pink fetish," I retorted ba

    (Anna)I cringed when he hugged me and slowly peeled off his arms from around me."Why are you here? Did Kyle send you? Where were you when he imprisoned me?" I annoyedly asked, narrowing my eyes at him."Anna! Kyle sent me away on a mission. I didn't know he would do something like that. You have to trust me. I am only here to warn you," he quickly answered, trying to hold my hand."About what?" I kept my hands behind my back so he wouldn't be able to reach them."Kyle searched all the locations Asher left him regarding the moonstones. And he knows Asher lied. Kyle is coming for him, and this won't be pretty." He drew near and held my shoulders again, making my nose wrinkle."It's just a matter of time that he discovers Asher's Island and your location, Anna. If he is able to capture you, he will turn you into his breeder or will feed you to that demon. I don't want that." Claude vehemently shook his head, I could see the fear in his eyes."That's why you are here? To warn me?" I ask

    (Anna)After the bullying incident, I observed drastic changes in both Ellie and the children of the Hotel management and staff. Ellie had become more confident and didn't shy away from expressing her opinion. Children began to accept and play with her under the strict supervision of Ollie.The rest of our vacation days breezily passed. It was the last day of our vacation and we decided to spend it on the beach.Ollie, Ellie and the other children were playing beach volleyball in their swimming costumes. Their chatter and laughter filled the air as the sun shone brightly. The gentle waves of the calm blue sea were kissing the white sand and retreating quietly. It was a pleasant day for the outing.I was sprawled on my tummy, lying on a lounger beach chair, soaking the last of the warmth of the sun. Asher's adept hands touched the smooth skin of my back."You want some sun lotion? I can be very gentle at times," he playfully remarked, his voice was like the cool sea breeze blowing from

    ( Anna)Taking long steps I headed down and made my way to the Manager's Office. I knocked and soon the door opened."Ma'am, please! Come in," the manager quickly said, trying to hide his surprise. I entered his office as he closed the door behind us and offered me a set.I settled myself confidently and faced him and instantly got to the point instead of trying to beat around the bush."Mr Haster, I am sure you are aware of the bullying incident that took place in your hotel today."Haster settled in his chair behind his polished desk and placed his chubby hands on the shining surface."I deeply regret what has transpired in my hotel today and we will compensate you in every way.""Compensate? Will that bring back the confidence my daughter lost? How will it repair the damage that was done?" I asked in annoyance, crossing my arms over my chest.Haster uncomfortably cleared his throat and began. "We will counsel the children involved, I assure you such an incident will not be repeated

    (Anna)As we reached the hotel, Asher received a phone call and stayed outside to attend it. I decided to check up on the kids during that time.Nearing their suite, I heard crying sounds coming from inside. It made me panic.What could have gone wrong in my absence?Quickly, I pushed open the door, and my heart jumped into my mouth.Oliver had a bleeding lip and a panicked face while Ellie was loudly crying. Seeing me, Oliver jumped into my arms and began to wail loudly as well.I collected both of them in my arms. It was going to be a long night."Hey! Hey! Slow down..tell me in detail what happened." I calmed both my children down by slowly rubbing their backs and kissing their foreheads. It was chaos because both of them were incessantly crying.We settled down on the plushy rug and I let Oliver tell me everything that had transpired in my absence. Grabbing the first aid box from the bathroom, I cleaned Oliver's wound and applied antiseptic.The more he spoke the more enraged I fe

Although Mom and Dad had fully accepted Ellie into the family, I still struggled with the idea of sharing my parents with her.I had just gotten my mom back and now I needed to share her with this new girl. I was supposed to be the only one having all of her love after staying apart for so many years.But I didn't want to disappoint Mom..she asked me to get along with her and take care of her, and that was what I would do.However, Ellie frustrated me. She was immature and stupid. The simple tasks she found ardent. Easy tasks, she was unable to solve and I always had to help her.It tested my patience but I was trying. My eyes finally began to close as sleep took over but I was woken by Ellie's soft cries and her tummy rumbling.I sat up straight and turned to face Ellie. She was clutching the

    (Anna)The altar was located on the north side of the island. Excitement bubbled inside me, and Asher as we walked hand in hand towards it.The heavenly moon hung like a big bright orb in the sky, illuminating our path as we trotted towards it.A white marble structure came into view which rested on a raised platform with four pillars. Three broad steps led to the platform.The white rays of the moon bathed the whole altar in its soft glow. The fireflies danced all around it creating this mesmerising ambience about it."Wow! It's breathtaking," I cried out."Indeed!" Asher answered, ushering me forward.As we reached near and climbed the stairs, an old man squatting alongside one of the pillars came into view. His white beard, the same colour as the moonlight which shone brightly on him, was so long that it touched the ground.His eyes were closed and hands clasped in front as if he was praying to the Moon goddess.The wrinkled face was serene and peaceful.Sensing us his eyes opened

    (Author's POV)Anna was slightly shaken after Noah's death. The burden of being an Alpha and the CEO of Carol Industries also weighed heavily on her.Kids were also disturbed because of Anna's sudden disappearance earlier. They were trying to get along, but Oliver still struggled with the concept of suddenly having an adopted sister.At times he ended up saying mean things to her. To make up for that he would awkwardly offer her food and force her to take it. Sometimes, acting like an older brother, he would teach her how to correctly play with toys or use certain gadgets. But ended up reprimanding her at times.It was a conflicted relationship so far.Seeing the emotional state of his family Asher decided to take a break from Howler City and their positions as Alphas.He gathered the family in their living room and stood in front of them before announcing."I have decided to take a family vacation for a week. We will be going away to a peaceful island and spending some time there as

    (Anna)After our near-death escape, Asher kept tabs on Kyle and his movements. He was fully dedicated to finding the rest of Moonstones and shifted his focus to Crescent Island. Utilising the assassins at his disposal, he set out to hunt the moonstones.One day Edward received a call from Shadow Howl Pack. It was Noah secretly calling with the help of a doctor who had taken pity on him.He wished to see me."Anna, I just spoke to Noah. I know how badly he treated you, but he himself was a victim and is in bad shape now. Can you visit him once?" Edward requested with a plea.Although Noah had wronged me on so many levels, he got his retribution. This was the least I could do for him."Alright, I will take Asher along and visit him."I called Asher and he was more than ready to accompany me.Together we went to the Shadow Howl Pack. The doctor secretly let us in because the security was lax in the absence of Kyle."He doesn't have much time left. He had been calling for you day and nigh

    (Anna)I regained my senses and the heat abated after Asher made love to me. Getting up he helped me clean in the bathroom and wrapped his suit jacket around my body."So what's our escape plan?" I asked Asher, leaning onto his chest as held me to himself."Just wait; I have everything figured out," Asher answered, deep in thought."Kyle is planning to feed both of us to the demon as the final sacrifice. We can't let him get his hands on all the moonstones; it will be pure chaos," I informed him, but Asher remained relaxed. His lips lovingly grazed my blown-out hair."I know, don't worry."We were still talking when there was a knock on the door."Stay here, Anna. Let me see who it is," Asher instructed while getting up and walking to the door, confidently. He knew what he was doing.Opening the door he came face to face with a very enraged Kyle and a bunch of assassins and warriors.Pushing past him, they barged inside the place, and Kyle's eyes narrowed at me and then moved to Asher
