Yuri's POV“You can leave now” Ethan, my beta and master said, buckling his belt and arranging his shirt. I had just finished pleasuring him on his office desk as usual, and I got off his desk and arranged my skirt. I wore nothing underneath, as he didn't like me wearing underwear for our 'meetings'.“Yes Master Ethan” I bowed and turned to leave when he said “wait” I paused and looked at him.“Make sure you take those drugs, I don't want you getting pregnant for me. If you do, make sure to get rid of it, I will never accept it.” His voice was cold and harsh. I was used to it, he said it every time, reminding me of how my life would be ruined if I ever got pregnant for him.I nodded and left the room quietly, clenching my fists. Nothing changed, nothing got better for us, for me.It's been over a year since Jasmine got kicked out of the pack, things got worse. The Alphas were as ruthless as ever, and it affected the whole pack. I'd been feeling guilty ever since she left the pack. I
Ethan's POV*FLASH BACK*“You are dismissed.” Alpha Nathan said to me, waving me off. I bowed and mumbled “yes Alpha”I turned to leave when I saw a familiar red haired girl, the famous Alpha's slave. “Jasmine, Come here” I heard Alpha Nathan say in a much calmer voice. His tone was not as harsh and cold as when he spoke to me. I'd never seen him talk to anyone apart from the former Luna, their mother, this way.My eyes narrowed at her, and she met mine, she bowed and entered the office and I left, shutting the door behind me.“Send Yuri to my room” I ordered the guard that stood beside me, and he bowed and ran off immediately. I strolled down to my room, and lit a cigarette stick, taking a drag.The maids that passed bowed, and some slaves threw seductive looks at me, hoping I would pick them as my new slave. I frowned and ignored them, walking and smoking in my room.To say I hated the Alphas was an understatement, I despised being the beta. I hated the fact that I was ranked lower
“I… We killed the Luna. Jasmine didn't do it, we framed her” Yuri blurted out, and the three Alphas gaped out in unison.“What?!”Ryan launched at her, grabbing her neck and pushing her to the wall, “what did you say!” He growled at Yuri, his fangs out, ready to tear her apart. “Answer me!”“I…I am sorry” Yuri cried in tears. “I shouldn't have done it. We, Lola, Sabrina and I did It, Jasmine is innocent”“Sabrina is involved?” Zachary sounded like he didn't believe his ears.“Elios!” Nathan yelled out, and the door was pushed open immediately. Elios entered the room and bowed his head. He could sense the Alphas anger and didn't want to annoy them further.“Take her and place her under house arrest, I want a thorough interrogation about what happened with Jasmine and mother. Squeeze out all the information you can get and get back to us by sunset” Nathan growled and Ryan pushed Yuri away.She fell and Elios walked up to her, yanking her up from the floor. “Owh” She groaned, and he drag
“Hello Dorcas” Zachary greeted with a smile like they were long-lost friends.“A…alpha Zachary, Nathan, Ryan” Dorcas called with wide eyes. Nile, who stood behind his Alpha, froze, these men were Jasmine's mate.Alpha Dorcas immediately composed himself and cleared his throat, he was still an Alpha himself. “What brings you to my pack gentlemen”“You know very well what brought us here” Nathan hissed.“Well you can leave because you're not getting anything.” Dorcas threw back, remembering how they had framed and kicked his daughter out. How much she had cried because of these three, and almost even took her life by falling into the pool. They had hurt his little princess, he felt guilty each time he saw her cry, it was his fault. If only he hadn't sold her out, then she wouldn't have met the Alpha triplets and be so hurt.But that was all in the past, they had more pressing and important issues. He couldn't find his daughter and his grandson. It has been 7 hours since they left for th
Ethan's POV The maids served us and scrambled away. I grinned as I watched the alphas sit opposite me with frowns on their face. They glared at me, waiting for me to speak, but I quietly cut my meat and took it to my mouth.“This is so good, are you enjoying your meal as well?” I asked, teasing them. Their faces turned harder.“We are not here for the damned meat, tell us what you want” Nathan gritted. I could tell he wanted to pounce on me and rip me apart, but he knew if he did that, he would never find Jasmine.I had the Alphas right where I wanted them, and it was thanks to that bitch and her bastard child. I grinned even harder.“I want you gone” I said, taking another chunk of meat to my mouth. They stared at me in silence.“You want us gone?”“I want you to leave and make me Alpha. It's quite simple, leave the eclipse pack forever, you get your mate and child, live happily ever after” I took a glass of water and drank it slowly while they watched, waiting for me to continue sp
Jasmine's POV The strange driver sprayed something in my face, and I immediately grabbed my babe, shielding him from whatever was sprayed.Asher immediately woke up from his sleep and started crying. I hated seeing my baby cry. “Asher” my head was dizzy and eyes blurring. I held my baby tightly, his cries were hurting me and I tried to make him stop crying."S..stop the car…ta…take…us.bac..k” my voice slurred as I tried to speak.“Just shut the fuck up already, pretty lady. I'll take real good care of you.” My heart skipped a bit at his words. I knew I was in danger, I glanced at little Asher in my arms, we were in danger. He wouldn't stop crying.The driver looked annoyed, my eyes were beginning to close, but I was desperately fighting it back. He parked the car and I got ready to bolt out of the car, but he turned back and sprayed the strange gas on my face, I tried to block him from spraying Asher but it got to him.His scream tore my heart. “Asher” I whispered, feeling myself go
Jasmine's POV I stared blankly at the door that was shut at my face. I was scared, tired and angry. Why was it me?What had I done to deserve this?There was nothing scarier than being separated from your child and not knowing where he is and how he is faring.I felt tears slip down my cheeks. I fisted my palm and hit the door, screaming and shouting for them to open it.At least let me see my child. Let me see Asher. I felt weak and useless. I felt helpless. This reminded me of what happened almost two years ago. How I was kicked out of the Alpha's pack and how I couldn't do anything about it. I'd lost my mate, and now I was about to lose my child as well. The thought made me angrier, and I hit the door with even more force, hoping to at least break it down.It looked like the wooden door was made of iron. My shouts and the noise I made was ignored. No one came to me. No one answered me, no one told me to stop, nothing, no response, nothing at all.I walked to the side of the broken
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
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
