Of course, everyone was always laughing here and there. She tried harder not to be distracted by those big pretty eyes, or overwhelmed by the feeling that she didn’t belong. Maria felt uglier every second she spent there. Being laughed at by everyone she met wasn’t helping much . But it was better than what they will do if they saw her real face. Maria wondered if she would even recognize Boat Ryan without his mask. She had only seen his real face without a mask only once before his operation,it was during their first week as a freshman when they both met at the school auditorium. Boat Ryan felt he could confide in her ,he told her the reason he had to wear clown mask to school because he got a scar from fire accident and showed her ,his scar. What had happened to him was quite smiliar to this case of Maria. He told her, he enjoyed wearing Joker's mask cause he is this Idiol who is just like him. A cool villian who know one understand and people thought of him as a pschyo .

At Luoka city things were going roughly for Heather. Heather walked home looking miserable and lost than ever, her hair were in places as suit were drenched up with rain . People turned their heads and looked at her, "The woman is really a mess" She sat lost at the bus station, when the bus arrived ,she walked into it and search for her card was gone .

The senior courtlady quickly announced her arrival, "The Luna Mara is here" she cried loudly. Immediately jumping down from her bed and rushed down with her maid to welcome her in.

At Maple High school, school kids were having lunch peacefully at the cafeteria until things went chaotic, "Hey Alex I heard you dating the ugly duckling now" someone jeered loudly behind Alex.. Archer and his friends took their seat next to Alex where he sat at the most quiet part of the cafeteria. "What do you mean by ugly duckling" Matt snicked. "This man got no taste even with his good looks, but I understand what the fresh virgin hole" Brian said and they all busted into laughter. Alex was about to stand up and leave,when Matt said something that cut his attention. "I see you are even more desperate than Archer,Bad guy" Matt joked. "What do you mean by that"Alex brow scrunched up "Oh!, you don't know about it, during Archer's last birthday his uncle invited his old friends and country folks in D-state for his birthday" Matt started explaining. "That was when he set a drug rape trap for her during the party, which did fail cause her mom called earlier before the drug coul
**************At Clifton Mansion****"Mother can you believe you dearest grandson was suspended in school today" her aunt yelled loudly as they both walked into the mansionAlexander ignored his aunt nagging and went kissing his grandmother before heading into the room.The middle age stated at the bruise all over his face,"What on Earth happened to you " Old lady said in alarm."Your hot Grandson was in a fierce battle with another guy in school over girl,my sister-in-law to be " his cousin winked at him before heading to the huge fridge to grab jug of milk."Don't mind her nonsense grandma ,am good" he explained and quickly left the living room."Look at that so mannerless, he got with several fights today with a guy at a cafeteria and even a girl how gentlemanly of your grandson""Look like a bad fruit doesn't fall far from its tree, just look at his nonchalant attitude for someone who got a week suspension" his aunt angrily yelled loudly In frustration as everyone ignored her wor
The cold night covered the sky , the elder lady of the palace wearing an expensive fur coat walked slowly with her maids following closely behind.Getting to the magnificent library that stood at the heart of palace,The Eunch immediately announced get arrival and the door was pulled open,"The Dowager Queen is here!!"The elder lady walked in,"Mother !" Alpha Lucas said in surprise onseeing her "Greetings your majesty " the elderly lady kowtow ."Please have your seat " he said and the woman made her way to one of the Golden seat."What brought you here in this cold night. You should know not to bother yourself due to your health in this cold " he scolded sternly...."Then your majesty should give me nothing to worry about then"she retorted"Have I done anything wrong, Royal mother " he asked with his dark brown slightly raised."You have neglected the Royal Luna , deprived her of seeing her only son that keeps her company" she said sternly."So she has come to report to you" he sa
And as he does so, he answers the question he literally forced me to ask while my moans and screams are confused with eachother. "No one else fucking wants you", his moves are so tight and almost forceful that I can't help but wonder how in the world he still has all that stamina. "It hurts", I moan as I try to reach for his waist and push again, but he slaps my hands away and grabs my boobs. "Didn't you want it hard? I'm doing just that, or do you want me to leave? Did you have a change of mind?" His fingers are giving my nipples the tightest pinch they've ever gotten and his palms remain firmly pressed on my breasts. "You'll barely be able to walk when I'm done", he pauses as I start to feel his manhood harden and pulsate inside of me. Dripping hot precum also starts to coat my inside and mix with my wetness as he continues his movement. "And you know what will happen when I'm done?", through my glassy eyes, I notice the smirk on his face, "I'll take you again and again a
Heather With Mara gone, the estate felt peace and calm, like the storm had passed. Some funny thing is no one grieved over Mara's death, even though she was once the Luna. Even her son, Archer. Lucas never loved her in the first place. He softened to me and more wary of letting fear rule him. Our bond emerged stronger for enduring the trial. Together Lucas and I slowly mended torn relationships throughout the pack, reassuring all of our peaceful intentions. Keegan’s wisdom and discretion proved invaluable in maintaining stability through the transition. And Alex’s calm strength gave me courage when threats of fresh dissent arose. He would make a fine leader someday, if we could break the bleak cycle of suspicion and isolation. Archer remained more inscrutable, keeping his own counsel for a time. But Alex's tireless faith seemed to gently erode his walls. And seeing Lucas choose unity over vengeance clearly gave him much to ponder internally. I hoped in time the seeds of healing
Archer's POV The commotion in the hallway drew everyone's alarmed attention from the dinner table. Shouts echoed, then Keegan appeared supporting mother's distressingly still form. Dark blood stained her robes and face."What has happened?" Father demanded, rushing over with the others. But none needed ask as the gruesome truth became painfully clear. Mother had taken her own life, reasons unknown. An icy void opened within me. I know why. She chooses this for herself.In the chaotic hours that followed, I retreated numbly to the solitude of the grounds, tormented by guilt and questions. What had driven the proud Alpha female to such an extreme end? She had appeared the very picture of health mere hours before at dinner. Nothing made sense.Over the next harrowing days, the murky circumstances came to light under Keegan's discretionary investigation. Among mother's things he uncovered incriminating letters - one for father pleading again to cast out Heather before she destroyed him.
MaraBitterness churned within me as Lucas welcomed Heather back so readily after all the grief her disappearance caused. She had stolen his affections from me long ago with her bewitching powers, and now the spell was cast anew despite my warnings. Lucas was blind in his obsession once more.I would not let her destroy my son again. Since reasoned arguments proved futile, more duplicitous means were required. I slipped tiny portions of monkshood tincture each day into Heather's wine at dinner, under guise of graceful hospitality. Just enough to make her sickly, not draw suspicion. Soon parallel symptoms began appearing in my soft-headed son as well - fatigue, headaches, fits of anger. But it was necessary collateral damage to free him from her toxins. Once weaned off her presence, Lucas would regain his senses. I remained vigilant for any opportunity to administer larger, more disfiguring doses when the time was right.But fate conspired against me when Archer noticed his ailing fat
LucasThe long road of recovery thereafter was its own grueling nightmare. My own weakness disgusted me. But Heather and Alex stayed steadfast through every faltering step, humiliation, and defeated curse. Their faith fueled me like oxygen to resume the fight each day. Leaving the bleak hospital at last to continue healing surrounded by family brought profound peace. Despite my grandmother's lingering wariness, she and Mara welcomed Heather back graciously. The circle had held through our darkest hour.My body gradually mended, though the leg brace and cane still left me reliant on others' assistance shamefully often. But Heather never allowed me to slip into despair, staying bright and gently scolding when I cursed my feeble condition too harshly. Her inner light sustained me, even through my blackest moods.Alex too helped ease the restlessness, smiling encouragement through each halting mile walked together around the grounds. In his eyes I glimpsed again the heroic father I had p
Heather Everything happened so fast - the gun, Lucas diving to shield me, the deafening crack of the shot. Then Lucas crumpling heavily to the floor amidst the chaos, dark red blooming across his chest. The scream trapped in my throat escaped as a shattered gasp. I rushed to Lucas's side with Alex, pressing my hands desperately against the gushing wound. Lucas's face had gone pale and slack, barely conscious. "No no no, stay with me!" I begged him. Our surroundings faded away, Ian's deranged shouting, the sirens outside, everything but Lucas's dimming eyes locked on mine. "Heather...forgive me..." he rasped faintly, each word clearly agonizing. His hand found mine, grip feeble. "Tell...Alex..." "Shhh don't speak, save your strength!" I pleaded, tears blurring my vision. But his eyes slid closed, body going limp. "Lucas! Lucas please!" My broken sobs echoed in the sudden quiet.Everything after became a hellish blur - police and paramedics storming in, Ian screaming threats and cu
LucasRage boiled through my veins as Richard tried to hit their car. I watched Keegan speed off with Heather. And I feel at ease. That damned snake Richard had nearly killed her! If I had arrived seconds later...I cut off the chilling thought, forcing icy composure over the maelstrom inside me. Now was not the time for blind fury. Richard remained barely conscious at my feet, helpless prey awaiting judgment. I could make his death agonizingly slow, wring every scream from his worthless hide... But no. That was the old madness. I would not sink to his level, however deserved such vengeance might be. Death would come by my hand swift and clean. The serpent had stolen too much time from me already.I hauled Richard up by his torn shirt, claws piercing through the thin fabric to dimple his skin. He peered at me with dazed yet defiant hatred. "You should have stayed dead, snake," I rumbled. My hand flexed, ready to shred his throat out in one vicious stroke. This would finally be fini
71 Heather's POV:My head spun as Keegan wove the disturbing tale of Ian's - no, Richard's - true identity and motives. The friend I had trusted so implicitly was merely using me as a pawn in some toxic feud with Lucas. And now he was regaining dangerous lucidity in the backseat, malice smoldering in his eyes."Just focus on the road ahead," I told Keegan, trying to ignore Richard's presence behind us. I clutched Alex's hand like a lifeline. We were so close now to real freedom. I refused to let Richard's poisonous schemes drag us back under. Not this time. Alex gave my hand a determined squeeze, meeting my gaze steadily despite the fear in his eyes. My brave boy. We would face whatever came next together. I offered him a reassuring smile before turning to Keegan."What's the plan once we get some distance?" I asked, keeping my tone low. Keegan's brow creased in focus as he navigated busy streets. "I have contacts out of state who can help get you set up with new identities and pap
Keegan Getting inside proved simple once Ian was safely unconscious - the wards recognized his signature and granted entrance readily. Moving cautiously, I followed the scent trails further inside until I located Heather and Alex in a barren side room. They both startled violently at my entrance with Ian's body slung over my shoulder."Keegan!" Heather gasped out, shock and alarm widening her eyes. "What are you doing here? What's wrong with Ian?" She started to rush over but I halted her with an upraised hand. "Please, I beg you to hear me out Heather. Ian is only sedated, so I could speak freely." I lowered Ian's limp form to the floor. "There are truths you need to understand before this goes any further."Alex moved in front of his mother protectively. "Truths? More like Lucas sent his lackey here to drag us back!" His young face hardened. "Well you can forget it, we're never going near him again."I held the boy's glare evenly. "I know you have no reason to trust me. But neithe
