Chapter 11 HIS TRUE IDENTITY

GREYThe rain lashed against the windowpane, a steady rhythm that matched the thrum of my thoughts. The glass of bourbon in my hand sloshed as I swirled it absentmindedly, staring out at the darkened woods surrounding the Pack House. Memories flitted through my mind like ghosts—each one a reminder of the choices I had made and the threads of deception I'd so carefully spunPlaying with people's minds has always been something I enjoyed. Leaving things to fate was a risk I couldn't afford. The thing I wanted could be snatched from me in a blink of an eye and I could not let that happen. I always had to be in control or life would control me. That was until I met her.The first time I met her—my mate—I knew fate had played a cruel joke. She was kind, delicate, everything I wasn't. Opposites attract or some bullshit. Cora was like a dove. So pure and so innocent.You would think a bond forged by the Moon Goddess herself should've been enough, but it wasn't. I found Cora so boring that it

Chapter 12 SPECIAL ABILITY

BELLAI could feel it deep in my gut, something wasn't right. I could not put a finger on it yet, but I knew inside me.Grey. He was the most conniving person I knew. And not only conniving, he was manipulative and deceptive. What if calling me back home was just another trap?He did say he would make me pay for running away, and although he asked for five million dollars and I sent one million, he hadn't pestered me for more.There were so many loopholes and the more I pondered, the more confused I got. It was tiring.Maybe I was just overthinking it and Cora was really in trouble. Maybe she was really dying. I couldn't ignore that. She was very sick even when she helped me escape the dungeon.What if Grey was responsible for her health deteriorating? What if he beat her up despite her failing heart condition. I honestly wouldn't put it past him.These thoughts made me restless through the day, and gave me sleepless nights.I want to make sure Cora is fine but for that to happen, I h

Chapter 13 DESPERATE MEASURES

LAYLAI walked back into the pack house, looking for Ralph. The servants had told me he was back, and I needed to talk to him or rather he asked me to come talk to him. I wanted to make some excuse but I sister or not, I couldn't just say no to an Alpha.I spotted a maid hurrying down the hall, her head down as she tried to avoid making eye contact with me. I wasn't in the mood for being avoided, so I stepped into her path and called out, “Hey, do you know where Ralph is?”She looked up, startled at first, before quickly composing herself. “Alpha Ralph is in his office ma'am,” she said, her voice a little nervous. “Alpha Kai is also here as well.”The mention of Kai hit me like a wave. I definitely hadn't expected to hear that. My stomach tightened, but I kept my face neutral.Without another word, I stepped past her, heading toward Ralph's office, the fact that Kai was here already making my thoughts swirl.Honestly, I had wanted him for years. I mean, who wouldn't. He was strong, re

Chapter 14 GREYS TRUE COLORS

BELLAKai being here with me made me feel safe. Grey had not dared to raise his voice at me, let alone his hand. It made my heart flutter, the knots in my stomach tighten. It made me happier that I would have imagined. And for the first time in forever, I didn't feel alone. That void was no longer there and it was kind of weird how he fit properly into the space.As we walked towards Cora's hospital ward, I stole glances at his profile, etched in sharp relief against the soft glow of the hospital lights. His jawline, strong and defined, moved subtly with each step, its gentle flexing a testament to the tension coiled within. The faint scruff on his chin added a rugged edge to his refined features.With each stride, his broad shoulders shifted beneath his fitted shirt, accentuating the powerful physique that commanded attention. His eyes, fixed ahead, gleamed with an intensity that bordered on ferocity, their piercing quality undeniable even in profile. The sharp lines of his nose and

Chapter 15 ONE STEP CLOSER

KAIThe hum of the plane's engines created a steady rhythm that somehow intensified the silence between us. I leaned back in his seat, casting a glance at Bella, who sat across the aisle with her gaze firmly fixed on the sleeping figure of Cora beside her. Her eyes held a mixture of worry and exhaustion, and though I longed to reach out to her, I kept my distance, respecting the unspoken boundaries she had put up between us.In the dim light of the cabin, Bella looked more vulnerable than I had ever seen her. She wore her strength-like armor, a shield that kept everyone at arm's length. But now, after everything I had learned about her past, I saw the weight she carried—sorrow, betrayal, and the lingering scars of heartbreak. It stirred something deep within me, a fierce desire to protect her, to be the one who could finally ease her burdens.I wanted to heal all her scars and take back every word they had said to make her feel like she was nothing because, to me, Bella was everything

Chapter 16 UNSPOKEN UNDERSTANDING

BELLAI couldn't deny having noticed Kai's new behavior towards me. And while it felt nice, I didn't trust his actions completely. For all I knew, I could be his rebound. Or maybe he was just looking to pass time and find a replacement.I sighed, staring at myself in the mirror. The floral dress I had on fitted my body perfectly. I almost smiled, merely staring at my reflection. I imagined Kai's reaction to seeing me. Something in me looked forward to it, as a matter of fact.I practically flew to the front door when I heard the doorbell. Kai. I stopped right in front of the door, smoothing my dress and my hair, before pulling it open.“Hi.” I said simply, stepping aside for him to enter the house. He looked me over, his eyes twinkling with something indecipherable. His lips drew into a thin line before he focused his eyes back on mine.“Bella,” he said, his voice coming out breathless. The little flutter in my chest was enough to remind me that he was not to be trusted, not completel

Chapter 17 FAMILIAR STRANGERS

BELLAMy breath hitched at the low tone, my body stiffening from where I was still wrapped around Kai's arms. Firmly, the voice repeated, the shudder that racked through my body accompanied by a tingle from the hand on my shoulder.“Don't touch her.”I felt the hand on my shoulder tightening as Kai's hold loosened, giving the stranger freedom to gently tug me away, causing me to stumble closer to him.“Lemons,” I thought. “He smells like lemons.”Slowly, my eyes abandoned Kai's slightly annoyed face, drifting over to the hand that squeezed my shoulder—it felt more protective than possessive—and trailing up the arm to settle on an oddly familiar face.I hadn't seen him before, that was certain, but the resemblance he held to Luna Olive was a bit uncanny.They looked almost alike, the most obvious differences being the fact that the man had a more tanned skin tone and the corner of his eyes were sharper, slightly upturned, just like mine.As I looked closer, my gaze observant and focuse

Chapter 18 NOT SO EMPTY THREATS

Luna Olive smiled, her pearly white teeth in full display as Layla walked into the private ward. The latter didn't want to be here. She felt choked by the smell of drugs mixed with the lavender scented candles, but she masked it all behind a faux smile as she took steps towards her bed.“Layla,” Olive was beyond glad to see her adopted daughter. She loved her so much more than words could explain.When Olive's only daughter got kidnapped twenty years ago, she was devastated and slipped into depression but the day she set her eyes on Layla; a four year old blonde with piercing ocean blue eyes, it felt as though her daughter had returned to her but in another form.“Mother,” Layla sat in the chair beside her bed, taking Olive's hands in hers and caressing softly. She came here with a motive and she was going to achieve it no matter what.“Baby girl, I'm glad you came,” her eyes gleamed with admiration. Layla saw it and was going to take advantage of it.“How couldn't I come? My mother w

Chapter 19 HEART BROKEN

BELLAThe cold air of the evening breezed past my skin as Lennon and I walked back into the pack house. After listening to his lengthy explanation, I spent the rest of my time walking back in silence, taking in the news i was just given.Layla was Luna Olive and Alpha Luther's foster daughter.What a pleasant surprise.She had pretty much been my replacement, or at least that's what Lennon said that everyone thinks.Thankfully, I had prepared myself for something like this. Well, not exactly like this but I did brace myself for the possibility that I was going to have someone be in my place in my biological family already. I thought that by the time I discovered whether or not it was true I would be filled with rage, jealousy, maybe even bitterness. But what settled in my chest was none of those things.Instead, I felt gratitude.As much as I didn't like her as a person, and I still don't, Layla had brought comfort to my mother in my stead, how could I hate her for that? I just couldn

Chapter 20 UNPLEASANT SURPRISE

BELLAAfter a few days, I decided to move back into the pack house.And then I moved back out again.Honestly, it wasn't the hardest of decisions to make. It was due to several reasons but the tipping point had been one of Layla's usual performances. She practically sobbed, wailed, and spun lie after lie about how I was out to get her, how I resented her existence. Obviously every word that came out of her mouth was false. I knew it because of my ability and also because I was the one being lied about. But even with the truth staring her in the face, Luna Olive chose Layla.I didn't argue, didn't fight. I simply packed my things, told everyone that I was leaving, and walked out the door.Luckily for me, I didn't end up homeless. My other brother, Xavier, offered me a space in his apartment.Moving in with Xavier was easier than I expected. He worked as a consulting doctor at the same hospital where I'd just started a job. The minute he heard I had decided to move out of the pack house
