Veil Of Shadows Chapter 1
PHOEBE’S POV I got up hurriedly as I was already late for my daily duties. Putting on my clothes which could be easily passed on for a rag, I rushed out of my room only to meet the she-devil. Not wanting to be the center of attraction, I gently moved out till I heard a voice. “Poor Phoebe!” Alexa called in her taunting tone. My legs shook involuntarily as I turned to look at her. “Good morning Alexa,” I murmured while she gazed at me with a wicked smile. There was just something about Alexa that made me so wary of her. She never liked me since I was adopted into the clan and has never hidden it. I had tried to gain her love but it had always been abortive instead she hated me more. Her dislike for me had grown worse since my wolf had refused to show itself despite passing the required age. I was going to be twenty soon and hadn't seen my wolf yet. I couldn't even get my mate, I was going to be stuck in this pack for a while. I had prayed to Moon Goddess ever
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 2
ADRIAN’S POVI closed my eyes gently while trying to pick up everything in my surroundings. The peace of this place was amazing as the cold breeze hit my face.I had just woken up and was meditating on my balcony, it had become a daily habit for me and I enjoyed doing it. It made me rethink all my decisions and plan my day forward, so far it has been a key to my sanity these past few years. I got up, and headed back inside to perform my daily routines before performing my morning duties. “Hey, dickhead!” I heard my Beta’s voice, earning a silent growl from me. Just as I was about to enjoy the quietness, It was shocking that our relationship was still very good as we were very opposite. “I don't really care about your greetings, you are causing a disturbance to my peaceful morning,” I said with annoyance. He glared at me before coming into the room properly. Did I even permit him to? “Your father requested your presence, he looked quite serious,” Axel reported. “What does he want
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 3
PHOEBE’S POV “Dad, did he accept?” Alexa came running down the stairs once she heard her father’s voice. I couldn’t do anything other than stand and watch all that was happening. “Yes, he did darling. All you have to do is impress him that day.” Alpha Demetrius said. “You are the best! I won't disappoint you.” Alexa said while hugging her father. Every day, I wished my parents were with me. I never experienced motherly or fatherly love. I didn't even know my true heritage as Alpha Demetrius had just found me and had taken me in. I craved parental care and support but I couldn't get any. Alexa finally took notice of my presence after a long time. “Dad, she can't be present when Adrian is here. He will create a bad impression on us, she is literally so weak!” Alexa complained. “Yes, she needs to be taken somewhere else. Her sight alone disgust me!” Alpha Demetrius said angrily. “Get out!” Alexa shrieked. I walked hurriedly away before blinking back the tears that were threatenin
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 4
ADRIAN’S POVThe gush of wind hit me and I shivered slightly. Something was happening and I couldn't place my fingers on what it was. Trying to shrug off the thoughts, I got dressed for the event I was invited to. “You look good!” Axel complimented. I rolled my eyes and continued buttoning my shirt. “Ouch! That hurts! Wouldn't you reply to me?” Axel asked angrily. “Urgh! Can you take your whining somewhere else?” I said irritatedly. I knew I sounded harsh but he was already used to it by now. I hate having to speak so much, it wasn't my thing. “Let's go,” I said and we walked out of the pack house. The thought of meeting many people was already upsetting me. I didn't like social gatherings and the only reason I agreed to this was because of my desperate need for a mate. For some unknown reasons, I was drawn to go to this particular pack. Since I received the letter, a strange occurrence has been happening. My heart would suddenly start beating faster just by thinking of going
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 5
PHOEBE’S POV I was feeling uneasy all through the day, it was even bad enough that I couldn’t speak to Mia. Being left alone wasn’t a good feeling, I couldn’t explain what was happening to anyone so I endured. “Get your lazy self out of this kitchen! Go and help in serving the guest!” The chief commander said. I scurried out of the kitchen with a platter of meal in my hands as I walked to the guests. I felt something tug me and I had to look at the direction. Sitting across the room was a handsome man, everything about him was so perfect. I didn’t know what was wrong but I was attracted to him. It only means he was my mate! My mate was Alpha Adrian! I tried so hard not to jump on him or do something crazy, but before I could even react I felt myself falling on the floor before my eyes closed. THE NEXT DAY “You need to see everyone’s face when he called you his mate!” Mia said to me while I blushed uncontrollably. “I honestly can’t believe it, it is almost like a dr
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 6
Adrian’s POV Immediately I uttered those words, Phoebe slumped to the ground, clutching her chest tightly. And something inside me twigged. I honestly wish I could take back my rejection at that point, but I am the strongest Alpha amongst the werewolves and having a weak Luna like her will only bring me down. I stormed out of the hall angrily leaving Phoebe on the ground. I wish I could turn back, and tell the pack members uttering terrible words and hitting her to stop. But I couldn’t. I have never felt so pathetic and angry before. I was pulled out of my thought when I felt a sharp pain across my jaw. Who would dare hit an Alpha?? I am the most feared and strongest Alpha so who would dare hit me?? Standing before me angrily, is a girl with blonde hair and tiny freckles. Judging by the way she’s fuming, she must be related to Phoebe. She tried to mask her fear but I could see right through her façade. Is she out of her mind? Why would she hit me? “You monster!!! How d
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 7
PHOEBE’S POV Hearing him utter those words of rejection shattered me to the core. I slumped to the ground and started crying. I was used to the whole pack torturing me and rejecting me. Now the person that the moon goddess has fated me with has also rejected me. Why can’t anybody love me? My parents left me in the middle of nowhere. The Alpha that rescued me is also treating me like a slave. The entire pack treats me like I’m not human. Now my mate has also rejected me. Am I really bad luck to everyone? I was alone in my thoughts and crying helplessly on the floor as the pack members started hitting me and calling me all sorts of defaming names. I thought my mate was going to be my knight in shining armor and save me from all these problems. But instead, he made them worse. Being rejected by your mate is one thing. But being rejected by an Alpha who is the strongest amongst werewolves, is a very big problem. “Such a worthless and despicable girl” “You don’t belong her
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 8
Adrian’s Pov She just slapped me!! No one has ever dared to look me in the eye not to talk of hitting me. No one!!! Absolutely no one!!! “HOW DARE YOU!!!” I growled using my Alpha tone. But to my utmost surprise, Phoebe was unfazed. She held my gaze sternly, and I could see the fire blazing in her eyes. I took a step closer, ignoring the filth on her body. “Do you know the consequences of what you just did?” I said. “Why don’t you hit me back? You are extremely mad, aren’t you? Your wolf must be raging inside. Then hit me Adrian” she said, still looking into my eyes. “Phoebe, the weak omega, just disrespected an Alpha by slapping him. Hit me, Adrian! Punish me! Whip me! Tell them to lock me in a dungeon! It’s not nothing I have not experienced before.” “You know, all my life I have been subjected to constant torture and abuse. I had no one to rescue me. I had no one to console me. My parents left me in the middle of nowhere. The Alpha that brought me to this pac

Phoebe’s Pov:“I must not get to the pack hospital before you, else, no dinner for you tonight.” He said before he sped off. I did not miss the devilish look Alexa and Beta Alfred gave me.How did he expect me to compete with a car? I cannot even walk properly not to talk of running to the pack. How am I supposed to get there before them? If only I had I wolf, then it would have been easier. I hugged Mia’s bag tightly, ready to commence the awful journey. I knew all the nooks and crannies of this pack, all thanks to foolish circumstances like this one. I knew it was impossible to get there before them even if I went through corners although it would help me get there faster. I took a deep breath, composed myself, and was about to start running before a car pulled up. Did they come back for me? I thought silently, as I bowed my head.That’s impossible. Why would they come back to pick me up? I thought again, as I said raised my head, and my eyes met with Dr.Kendrick.What was he doin
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 30
Adrian’s POV: “Hello everyone.” “Good evening, Alpha.” The pack members chorused as they bowed, showing respect. “As we all know, we are gathered here today, to celebrate our Beta and his new mate,” I said, as the pack members' focus went to Axel and his mate. “As the Alpha of this pack, I wholeheartedly welcome Mia into the Blue Crescent pack. She is the second most important female in this pack, and I want you all to treat her with respect and honor. Any disrespect would not be tolerated. You are now one of us Mia. And as the Alpha, I promise to keep you, and everyone in this pack safe. I promise to provide all the necessities and fulfill my duties as the Alpha. Once again, welcome to my pack Mia.” I said, as my voice boomed with authority. The crowd erupted with another round of applause as I left the stage. Dad was saying that they would question me about their Luna. But they listened to my speech attentively without any hesitation. No one would dare disrespect me in the p
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 29
Phoebe’s Pov:I read Mia’s letter countless times and I still could not get over it. All I could do was cry non-stop, and I fall asleep. The doctor came the next day and gave me a different prescription. Alexa also made sure to dish her daily torture. I knew my health was not getting better and Dr. Kendrick was also aware. Although he said the reason why I was not responding to treatment was that I was wolfless. But I blame it on Adrian. He’s the reason for all my problems. A week later….. It had been a week of staying alone in that apartment. Mia’s letter served as my comfort every night. I had been eating the food the doctor brought for me on the Alpha's order. The doctor made sure to clean my injuries every day although I could not see any difference. My injuries were not healing. I was still weak. Although, I could stand, and take my bath, but I couldn’t stand for too long. During the past week, I tried walking on my own without anyone’s help and it had been very difficult a
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 28
Adrian’s Pov: I went to my room and showered. I opened my wardrobe, took a random black shirt, and paired it with a black trouser. Honestly, this is my signature dress. I love black. Everything in my room is black even though my sisters tried helping me to redecorate it. I changed my shirt to lemon because I knew my mother was going to complain when she sees me wearing an all-black outfit. She’s going to create drama at the ceremony and I don’t want that. I put on my Rolex watch, and settled for black sneakers. I drove to the pack house, and the house was overflowing with pack members happy to celebrate Axel. When I stepped into the hall, the pack members sensed my presence and immediately the room turned silent. All eyes turned to my approaching figure, my presence commanding attention. The hall seemed to vibrate with my authority. My gaze swept across the room, acknowledging familiar faces. My eyes landed on Mine and Axel’s parent at the center of the hall, their eyes beaming
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 27
Phoebe’s pov:Dear Phoebe, I don’t know what to write, to be honest. Because I am writing this in a rush because of that asshole Adrian. He gave us nine minutes to pack our loads. And instead of that, I am using the time to write to you. When you wake up, I know you’ll feel bad because I promised to see you the next morning. I don’t know how I will survive without you Phoebe which is why I am writing this letter with tears in my eyes and a deep ache in my heart. Fifteen years ago, I met a very beautiful and strong girl. She was so tiny and full of life. I was jealous of her, and I spoke to everyone about her. My friends and my parents got tired of me talking about the girl. According to them, there was nothing special about her. But I knew there was something great about her. I instantly knew I wanted to be friends with her and I was happy when I spoke to her at the lake. The first time we spoke, I went back home happily and ranted to my parents about our encounter. Everyone in my
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 26
Adrian’s pov:It’s been a week since I have returned to the pack. I had lots of work to do, and I have worked non tirelessly since then alongside Axel. My father and mother were also busy finding solutions to the mating issue. Honestly, there’s nothing they can do. Phoebe cannot be my mate and I’m not taking a second mate. My mother had been trying to contact that witch, but it was futile. Axel and Mia were having their welcome ceremony this night and I was still stuck at the office. I was close to figuring out the people behind the rogue attack that night. According to the investigation Axel and I did, the wolves that attacked us were not rogues. They have a pack and they were sent after us purposely. We have marked the possible packs that we suspected. We would have gone to visit them, but I was giving Axel time to warm up with his mate. “You’ve been in this office since dawn Adrian. You need to take a break.” Axel said as he walked into my office. “I don’t need any break,” I re
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 25
Phoebe’s Pov: The next day, the pack doctor came to treat me as promised. He came with different herbs, medicines and antiseptics. When he entered, he examined my wounds carefully and I saw the pitiful look in his eyes. He cleaned the wounds with antiseptic, to disinfect them. After that, he inserted an IV drip into my vein, the blood flowing into my system. “This will help to restore the blood you lost, and accelerate healing.” He said, as his face drifted to the bag of blood hanging from the drip stand. “But….I have a rare blood group. How’d you manage to get blood?” I asked surprised. “You are not so dumb after all. Yes, your blood group is rare, which is why I am giving you mine. Do not read any unnecessary meaning to it I’m just doing my job.” He said, still focusing on the blood drip. I muttered a low ‘thank you’. “I brought some food for you to eat.” “On the Alpha’s order of course.” He added briefly. Just when I thought someone cared about me but it was on Alpha’s ord
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 24
Phoebe’s pov: Alexa made it her everyday mission to make sure she tortured me. It has been a week since Mia left. A week of pain, agony, and torture. I was still staying at the house alone, but Alexa always made sure to visit every day to give me my daily dose of pain and assault. My health was deteriorating badly. The Alpa stopped the pack doctor from giving me medicine since the day I opened my eyes. I have not eaten anything in a week. My life was not this bad before. At least I used to eat leftover food, and I was not bedridden. I used to have energy to work even when I was injured but now, I can’t even stand up from the bed. His rejection made everything worse now I’m bedridden because of him. Everything turned upside down since the day I met him. I genuinely cursed the day he called me his mate in that hall. That day marked the beginning of a more wretched life. I hate him so much that the thought of him makes me want to throw up. I thought werewolves were supposed to get
Veil Of Shadows Chapter 23
Phoebe’s pov: The last thing I remembered before passing out was Adrian and Alexa making out. Why did Adrian do this to me? I looked around, and I realized that I was not at the pack hospital anymore. Where am I? I asked no one in particular. I tried standing up, but I couldn’t. Guess I am back to square one. “You are finally awake.” Someone said, in a monotone. Well, I guess he/she was not happy that I made it back to life. I am not delighted either. The person came closer, holding a tray. Why does she look familiar? “Sit up and eat your food.” She said, sternly and I finally recognized her. She’s part of the maid that works at the pack house. But why is she making food for me and why are we both staying alone? Did she kidnap me? I wondered as I looked at the ceiling. “Have you gone deaf?” She said, dropping the tray on the bedside table as she stormed out. Wow, just when I thought someone had the decency to give a f*ck about me. I tried to stand up, to eat, but I couldn
