BACK AT THE ECLIPSE PACK "Fuck” Nathan punched the mirror in the room. It broke, shattering into pieces and making a very sharp sound. He immediately began to bleed but ignored the blood and pain he felt. “Breaking mirrors around the Manor won't do you any good or resolve the problem we have currently” Zachary said, twirling a glass of white wine in his hand.“I wish it was that bastard's face. I want to beat him to pulp, I want to rip him to pieces!” Nathan growled, his eyes red and canine elongating as he was almost transferring to his wolf form. Everyone in the manor felt the Alphas anger and could only wince quietly. Nathan was breathing heavily, he was the angriest of the three, while Zachary was the calmest of the three.“Well if you do that, we are never going to find our mate or child” Zachary commented, and they all went silent.“I told you, she was innocent. You refused to believe me” Ryan said out loud, earning glares from both his brothers.Zachary scoffed out loud. “Yo
Jasmine's POV“Asher!” My eyes watered as I ran to snatch my baby away from the strange woman's arm. He was crying and hot, my eyes watered. My baby, he was safe.“He has been crying all day and won't shut the hell up, you take care of him” the guard said to me. I ignored him, focusing on the child in my arm. “Shush, mommy's here” I rocked my child. He opened his beautiful glossy eyes to look at me. I fell in love all over again. I couldn't believe I had made this tiny, mesmerizing human. He stared at me for a while, noticing my presence, before letting out a yawn. My baby was tired. He had been crying all day after being separated from me.I hugged and kissed his sweaty and hot head. He let out a few hiccups before yawning for the second time. I rocked him a few times before noticing he had fallen asleep in my arms, my little angel. It was then I finally raised my head to look around. I noticed I was the only one left in the room, the nanny woman and guard had left me and Asher in t
Jasmine's POV I stuffed my dead phone in my pocket. Asher was in my arms, sleeping quietly without a single care in the world. My baby, my little angel. He looked so sweet as he slept, snoring quietly. His lashes were long and beautiful, it reminded me of the Alphas, my mates. I couldn't deny it, I missed them so much, my heart ached. It had been almost two years, and I had to admit it, i couldn't get over them. I tried, I had tried my best, I couldn't get over them. I couldn't look at any other man as my partner. I couldn't picture a future with another man that wasn't my mate. Even with Nile, I couldn't love another man. I couldn't see another man the way I saw my mates. My heart ached, I bit my lower lip. It had taken months to finally be able to stop thinking about them. The birth of my baby, Asher was the perfect distraction I needed from them.For a year, I tried to push them out of my mind. I never knew the mate bond was as strong and effective as this. I never expected it t
Jasmine's POV“Mhn” I groaned and turned. It felt warm, my brows knitted confused. Warm?I snapped my eyes open. Dull gray ceilings were staring back at me.What?Where am I?“Oh good, you're awake” I heard a feminine voice and turned my head to see a woman walking towards me with a tray in her hand. She was dressed in a brown dress and was barefooted. She looked like she was in her mid-50 fifties as her black hair was dull with a touch of gray hair, here and there.I sat up immediately, I was in a bed. A small bit comfortable one. The room was a small and warm room. It didn't have anything expensive or extravagant, which I was used to, in it.It had cozy brown wallpaper which was fading off. The furniture was neat and organized, everything looked arranged and in place. I frowned, it was just this older woman and I in the room, where was Asher?“Who are you?” I questioned the woman, ready to get out of bed and bolt out of here. Had I been kidnapped again? I frowned at the woman, she
BACK AT THE ECLIPSE PACK“Mmmhuh” Moaning sounds could be heard from Ethan's chambers.Ethan rubbed his manhood against her entrance, and she couldn't help the moan that passed through her lips. One of her hands came to place on her mouth, but the back of her hand covering her mouth but not well enough when he rubbed it languidly, her wetness pooling down in between her legs which made it easier for his length to move. With both their eyes strained and gazing at each other, she tensed when he stopped, but Ethan didn't give her much time as he pushed himself into her, her cry falling on the walls with the pain she felt for a moment.He pushed into her further, feeling her body tense and letting it relax before he started to push his hips back and forth, bringing her every desire out and her eyes started to turn foggy.With every thrust of his came a cry in return.“You're so fucking good, Yuri,” he said, his breath was harsh.Yuri looked up at the man drilling in and out of her with t
Yuri's POV“Leave now” Ethan suddenly ordered. I looked up in confusion, having mixed feelings. Had I done something wrong?He looked fine a moment ago, now he had a frown on his face and looked irritated. I looked at him and then at the ringing phone in his hand, wondering if I should protest or nothing. I bit my lower lip, there was no point in doing that. It wouldn't change a thing, he would always be in charge and me, his slave.No matter what I did, no matter what he said, it couldn't change the relationship we had. A moment ago, he had just promised to make me Luna if his plan went through, but now, I wasn't so sure. I stood up and picked my clothes that were discarded on the ground, piece by piece, putting them on silently. He watched me for a moment before standing and walking towards a closet to grab a short to wear.I turned to him and bowed in respect, he nodded and I left the room. I walked to my room when I suddenly remembered something. The drugs I was supposed to take
Yuri's POV"It's about Jasmine and her child!" I screamed out in fright, scared the Alpha was going to attack me if I didn't speak up soon and tear me apart. I figured that maybe if they heard it was about Jasmine, they would stop and be willing to hear me out. I was right. The Alpha paused and threw a harsh glare at me, wondering what I was talking about. I bit my lower lip and gathered courage to speak again."I..it's about Jasmine and her child" I paused. "Y..your child"They seemed interested in what I was about to say and Alpha Ryan sat back, motioning at me to speak up. I took a deep breath and parted my lips to speak."I.i don't know if you are aware of this, b..but I am Beta Ethan's slave. After a...session with him today" I bit my lower lip awkwardly."I overheard him speak about Jasmine and a child which I suspect might be yours as well" "Well? What did you hear? Hurry up and tell us now!" Alpha Nathan ordered impatiently."I..I think the Beta might be holding them captive"
THIRD PERSON POV“Yuri is my slave, you have no right to boss her around, only I do. She is my property, I suggest you know your limits, Nathan. Do not forget I have your mate and child with me, any little mistake from you can and will cost you their lives, I have nothing to lose after all”Those words infuriated the Alphas. How dare Ethan talk to them in such a manner?All because he thought he had control over them since he had kidnapped their mates and children. The displeasure they felt was visible. Ethan ordered the slave, Yuri, to leave, and she hurried and left the room, leaving the Alphas with their two faces backstabbing Beta.“The balls you've grown Ethan” Nathan was the first to speak and Ethan raised his brow at them, giving them a cocky smile.“What do you mean, Alpha” He said mockingly?“You dare speak to us in such a way, isn't this a surprise” Ryan said coldly.“When will you leave and make me Alpha?” Ethan asked, ignoring their previous words.“Maybe in another life,
Asher’s car came to a stop outside my home. My fingers twitched, clutching the fabric of my coat with more force than necessary. I could feel the weight of his gaze without having to look at him, though I knew it wasn't pity. No, it was something deeper, something that came with the understanding of a loss that wasn't his own.I opened the door with a force that startled me and I stepped out of the car. Asher walked me down to the doorstep and kissed me softly before I went in.I walked up to my room and everything felt still, yet somehow, there was a profound sense of absence, a void that seemed to wrap itself around me. Each step felt heavier than the last, and the gnawing sensation of guilt gnawed at me, refusing to let me find peace.Humphrey was gone. He was truly gone. He’d left with a quiet resignation that shattered me more deeply than any words could. I hadn’t fought hard enough for him to stay. Instead, I’d let him slip away, believing that it was for the best. But now, stan
I stood on the opposite side of the street, my gaze fixed on her as she lingered at the end of the sidewalk. When our eyes finally met, I saw the instant flicker of recognition ignite in hers, quickly followed by an emotional wave that surged through her, an intensity that struck me to my core. It was a look I had witnessed before, yet its power never ceased to leave me breathless.Her eyes locked onto mine, and in that split second, the weight of everything I had been avoiding came crashing down. Her body trembled as she stepped closer, her eyes shimmering with unspoken pain. She didn’t say anything, but her distress was obvious.I didn’t even think before I opened my arms, pulling her into my embrace. She fell against me, her sobs soaking into my shirt, but I didn’t mind. Her pain was like a raw wound, and I would have let it consume me if it meant giving her comfort."He’s leaving me," she whispered, her voice cracking under the weight of the sorrow that spilled out with the words.
CHARLOTTE'S POVI looked up from my phone, just as the cab pulled up at the pack house. “Thank you,” I said to the driver and got down with excitement coursing through my veins. I pressed the doorbell and only had to wait for a few minutes before a maid opened the door.She smiled warmly and ushered me in. “He's not around but you can wait for him in his room,” she says. “He will be back before you know it.”I returned the smile and made my way to Asher's room without any form of assistance. I pushed the door open and I'm immediately greeted by the sight of Asher's bed in a state of turmoil. I chuckled and walked in.Just like one would expect from a boy, Asher's room barely stays clean. I picked up a few shirts from his bed to make space for me and dropped them in his closet.I reclined on the soft bed as I scrolled through my phone. Just as I contemplated dialing Asher to inform him that I had arrived at the pack house, the door swung open, and he walked in. He looked disheveled, his
Asher's POV"Tyler, get your dick out of that bitch and get your ass to my house in 5 mins, we need to pay someone a visit!" I growled to the phone and hung up.Someone knocked on my door, and I mumbled for the person to enter. A blonde maid entered with a tray; I was a bit surprised, that was fast from the chef.The tray had a bowl containing some kind of soup in it. I watched her drop the tray on the table, and she bent in front of me, making her white lacy underwear visible. I knew what she was trying to do, so I pulled her by the skirt. She landed on my thigh and made a soft moan-like sound."Master Asher," she whispered seductively, and her eyes blinked in fake innocence. I stared at her for a moment, wondering if I should throw her on the bed and fuck the life out of her, but for some reason, I couldn't. Charlotte's sweet face appeared in my head, and I couldn't imagine touching some other girl that wasn't her. I was suddenly irritated by the girl in my arms, and I growled at h
Charlotte's POVTHE NEXT DAY "Mom, hurry, we have to leave," I yelled, and Mom came rushing down the stairs giggling."Calm down, will you? A lady has to take her time to dress," She said, and I rolled my eyes."That should be my line," I huffed at her, and she just smiled. We got out of the house and got into the cab that was waiting outside the door.I gave him the address of Mom's hospital, and we set off. On the way to the hospital, I texted Asher to make sure he was okay, and I was surprised when he informed me that he was going to be discharged today. Wasn't it too early?It's barely been three days since the accident and since he was rushed there. I sighed, thinking about how fast his injuries must have healed; he was the Alpha's son, after all, and was stronger than the bunch. The hospital probably only helped speed up his recovery and monitored him. Knowing Asher, I knew he was kind enough to nag and complain about everything, including not staying in the hospital for so lon
Asher's POV "That's all, Master Asher, you're healing so well and fast; it's very impressive!" The nurse said with a slight blush on her face."When do I get to leave here?" I asked her coldly, and she remained silent for a while before checking her note."Well, according to the hospital policies, you'll still have to stay for about a week until we are sure you're okay and fit to leave," She said, and I scoffed. A week? I was going to be couped up in this room for a week. "A week?" I hissed at her. "I'm healing just fine. I don't feel weak or tired; there's only a little scratch on my head that has stopped bleeding, and I will probably leave there by tomorrow. I don't need to stay here all couped up in this room for another week, all in the name of healing," I said, and she flinched at how harsh my tone was, not that I cared about her."W.. well, you can't leave, according to the hospital -""I am the son of the Alphas; I'm not just some regular patient here; you all should be grate
Asher's POV"Well?" I pressed, annoyed, and his face turned serious."It's Humphrey"I was taken aback. "Humphrey?" I mumbled, my eyes narrowing. Could it be.. the same Humphrey?I shook my head; no, it couldn't be. Why would he? How could he.. was he stupid?Being popular in school made everyone want me as their friend and boyfriend. And as many friends as the popularity brought me, it also gathered enemies for me.I knew there were some boys who didn't like me, with that idea that every girl around was fawning over me, and even their crushes and girlfriends shamelessly threw themselves at me.However, since I was not only popular but also came from an influential family, they didn't dare to face me. I was the only son and heir of the Alphas and Luna; I knew every parent wanted their children to be acquainted with the son of the Alphas.And even though they didn't like me, they would put on fake smiles around me and try to make me notice them, not just the boys, but the desperate gir
Charlotte's POV "I'm sorry, ma'am, but I'm here to inform you that the time is up. Our patient needs to rest," She said, and I mouthed an "oh." "I will be out now," I said, and she nodded and left. I turned to Asher and kissed his forehead. "I have to leave now; I'll be back tomorrow, promise, I said to him, and he smirked back at me. "You don't have to worry about me; I'll be fine," He said, trying to act strong, and I rolled my eyes at him. "I know," I said and got up; I waved at him and left the room. Sophie and Tyler were still sitting where I had left them. They were having a conversation, and Sophie had a little smile on her face. I frowned; although Tyler was close friends with Asher, I still didn't like or want him around me. He was my bully, and that would never change. From how he reacted at the dance night, I knew he wasn't too happy to learn Asher and I were together, not that I cared about what he liked and didn't. "Come on, Sophie, let's go," I said, and she
Charlotte's POVThe doctor, Bell, paused for a while, and then her expression softened, and she offered a small smile. "Asher is fine. He needs a few days to heal, but he is going to be okay," Doctor Bell announced, and everyone simultaneously let out a breath of relief.I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, and my heart swelled with gratitude. We had all been on edge, awaiting news of Asher's condition.And now, the doctor was out with a smile on her face and was assuring us that Asher would be fine and would recover quickly.Luna Jasmine gasped and ran to her husband, who hugged her back. He stroked her hair softly, and I heard him number something along the lines of, "I told you not to worry, Love. Doctor Bell is here, and she'll make sure Asher recovers quickly," He said, and Luna only nodded quietly.But then, the doctor dropped a bombshell. "Asher is now conscious, which is abnormal, given the severity of his injuries. However, as the Alpha's son, he's stronger than most."Luna
