Leila's POV.
Having two hotheaded people in the house is just crazy. These two have been asking me questions nonstop about my mate who I don't even know his name. I know I am messed up but you can't blame me. I just hope I will see him soon."I am off to sleep," I told them as I walked upstairs."Don't think you are escaping this topic stupid child. How could you not even ask for his name?" Marcus asked, making me roll my eyes."What do you really expect when I get my wolf and mate on the same day and time? I was happy and flabbergasted of course. Some things were meant to escape my mind," I said."You are so stupid," he said."Just like you. The only difference is that you are more stupid than I am," I said while showing him my tongue."Can both of you shut up? Marcus, let her be for goodness sake. You are behaving like a child and she is the child here," Elana said."I am not a child. Does a child have breasts or get a mate," I said proudly."I just feel like beating the shit out of her so that she can remember some things which are more important than running and laughing around," Marcus said."What has made you be like this? Should I remind you that when you discovered Elana was your mate, you kissed and fucked her even before you got to know her name?" I asked."How the hell do you know I mated with her on the first day we met?""Have you forgotten that werewolves can differentiate between mated she-wolves and unmated she-wolves?""You are such a nosy little girl," he said."You are talking as if you aren't poking your nose into my affairs," I said, making him roll my eyes."My ears are aching from listening to your nonsense arguments. When both of you are done call me," Elana said while leaving the room."Bitch," we murmured when she left."I heard that," she said, making us roll our eyes."Why..." he was interrupted by the door opening."Who is that?" I murmured.At this time, Elana had already come back to know who it was."What a surprise. I thought you all would be asleep," Liam said."Then why are you here if you knew we would be asleep?" Elana asked angrily."Watch your tone, woman. You are speaking to your alpha," he said with a loud voice. I think his wolf was at the point of coming out."Respect is achieved, Liam. I thought we were a family," she said calmly in the second sentence."And we still are a family," he said while looking at her confused."Then why did you make my sister's life miserable? Aren't you the alpha? Shouldn't you lead by example?" she asked and he averted his gaze and looked at the ground."Ashamed, I can see," she said with a chuckle."What did she ever do to you to deserve such treatment?" she asked angrily and I knew if he continued to keep quiet, her wolf would surface.I want to alleviate him but do I want to? After everything he had done to me?"Tell me," she shouted."I said watch your tone and I don't take disrespect from anyone," he replied aggressively, making Elana chuckle."Alpha? Do you call yourself an alpha? Should I remind you that your father hasn't passed the title yet to you? And a person who rejects his mate can never be an alpha. You know the rules," she declared calmly and Liam looked at her shocked then glared at me.Right now, I wasn't afraid of him. He can really go to hell for all I care."So don't you dare provoke me 'cause if you do, I will go and tell your father what kind of a disgraceful thing you did," she said."He would be glad that I rejected her," he said with a smirk. "You can go ahead.""Really, but what would the council say? Would they agree with both of you?" she said and at this, his face was priceless. "That's what I thought. Now can you tell me what you are doing in our house before I add that to the list of what to say to the council" she said coldly."I...I just came to inform you that as the beta's family, you are invited to go to the Lycan prince coronation tomorrow alongside us," he said."Aah, isn't that great news? Maybe I will tell the king that instead of the council," she said with a dark smirk."Please don't, I will accept her back but don't," he begged."It's already too late, don't you think? You can rebound the pain you have caused her through those two years. Can you leave my house," she said authoritatively.This is the first time I had seen her this angry. I was trembling out of fear of what she would do next. Before Liam left, he glared at me."You better change the look you are giving her, idiot. I am sure you don't want to regret more than you regret," she said."I know what I did is unforgivable but can't all of you forgive me, please? I promise I will change my attitude towards her and accept her as my mate and luna," he said pleadingly and I felt sorry for him.I am so sure if I hadn't met my second chance mate, I would have given him a chance but he is already too late."As I said earlier, you are already too late and I am sure she can't accept you after everything you have done," she said, making me roll my eyes."Leila please forgive me and accept me back," he begged and I smirked.I may not be heartless but here? I am enjoying the scene."I am sorry but I can't. Don't you remember you rejected me and I accepted your rejection? I asked and he looked down. "Just leave. Tomorrow will be a long day and we need to get enough sleep for it."He nodded his head when he realised that he had already lost and walked away."I didn't know that I had such a fierce mate," Marcus said."Just shut up. Why do you think I am the pack's beta? Elana said and we started laughing."So, are you ready to meet your mate again tomorrow?" She asked and I blushed."I will make sure to work on you in the morning so that he won't take his eyes away from you when he sees you," she said and I ran upstairs out of shyness.Third POV.“Lyannette, go back home. Your father and I will go down there to see where we can help if Leila is in danger,” Selene said to her daughter who was walking out of Erebus's mansion.“Okay. I will be busy here anyway,” she said as she winked at her mom who chuckled as she understood what she was up to.Although it was risky doing so, she knew that Lynette was stronger than others thus she couldn't be defeated. Also, she would ask some of the warriors to be at her disposal if she needed their help.Erebus stood still as he was confused cause he didn’t know what to do.At the rogue's pack:Amaya looked at Oizys coldly as if she had never seen someone with the guts to hurt her. She looked at the puppet that had walked in with Oizys and had been standing behind her as if it were her bodyguard. The more she looked at it the more she felt familiar, making her frown as the only people she was supposed to feel familiar with were her mother and Elaine.The puppet felt eyes on it making
Third POV. “Dad?” Elana asked as she couldn’t believe it. Although it had been a long time since she saw her father, she couldn’t still recognize his voice anytime she heard it. She turned around and looked at the man who was at the entrance. If one didn’t know, they would mistake Josiah for being older than the other man because the man still looked young. “Yes it is me, my dear child,” Elias said with a smile on his face when he hurriedly walked towards his eldest daughter. Elana forgot how the others always saw her, ran towards her father, and jumped into his arms. “Dad. Why did you leave us?” she asked in a whisper as she cried. She poured all the grievances she had suffered and she had endured cause she didn’t want either Marcus or Leila to know on her father’s shoulder. “I am sorry dear but I have always had an eye on you guys,” Elias said as he patted her back as a way to soothe her. Hearing this, Elana stopped crying and looked at her father with anger in her eyes. “
Third POV. The more Oizys continued to inject Leila with the drug the more she frowned. It was supposed to work after ten times but she had injected her more than twenty times. Cause of this, she started to doubt whether Leila’s darkness was really locked up or not. “Leila, are you sure your darkness hasn’t awakened yet?” she asked with a frown on her face. As someone who has been taught how to read people’s expressions, Leila could tell that she had continued playing dumb for a long time making Oizys start suspecting her. Leila looked at her innocently and in confusion. “Aunt, you know I don’t know how to tell when my darkness is awake,” Leila said, making the alpha chuckle while Oizys face slapped herself cause she now understood why Leila wasn’t saying anything else apart from crying out loudly when she was being injected. She felt frustrated at how stupid she was believing that the little girl could detect it. “What are you feeling currently?” Oizys asked with a bit of worr
Third POV. “Why did I even marry you in the first place?” Erebus continued cussing at the woman making everyone halt what they were doing and looked at him. They had never seen him be so angry before thus it was quite shocking. Lynnette looked at her father in amusement and knew that if things escalated to this point, he might make them suffer so much. Now, she indeed understood her value and position in her father’s heart. “Dear, what are you saying? Don’t forget that I am even more pure than you! You have darkness in you which causes you to be evil. Can’t you think that it was the darkness inside them that made them be how they are now? Be so malicious and have the urge to see blood?” the wife asked, making Erebus even more furious. “You woman! I will kill you today!” he shouted angrily but the woman just rolled her eyes as she wasn’t afraid of death cause she knew that she would still die today even if she remained silent. “I know that even if you won’t kill me your precious d
Third POV. The almighty Erebus coward upon hearing the stern angelic yet cold voice. He looked in the direction and saw Selene and Endymion walk in. Although he was looking at them, they were looking at Lyannette who was standing beside Erebus as they were shocked to see her there. “Lyannette, what are you doing here?” Endymion asked cause he felt uncomfortable with her standing next to Endymion. He felt as if his precious daughter had been snatched away from him. “I saw guys vanishing and thought you would be in trouble if you didn’t ask the guards to follow you. Cause of that, I was coming to ask Dad to help me find where you two were going but upon coming, I found you had been ambushed hence I had to take care of it,” she answered as she ran to them. “Mom, are you okay?” she asked as she searched for injuries on her body. Selene shook her head as she remembered her husband's words. Truly, Lyannette loved her so much. “Mom, I ask Dad to divorce and kill that woman for wantin
Third POV.Leila cooperated with Oizys to give her what she wanted with an innocent look on her face.Oizys looked at Leila and felt that she was so stupid and she felt that she was as lucky as she would be able to control Leila’s darkness when it awakes as it would have been awakened by her and not its own.“Leila, how are you feeling now?” She asked with an expecting look which made Leila think deeply.“I really don’t know aunty. What should I?” she asked as she pretended to be anxious.Although Oizys was disappointed that Leila couldn’t feel anything, she didn’t show it as she was afraid that Leila would notice something was wrong.“If that’s the case, I will add a few doses then we will see. Okay?” Oizys said with a forced smile on her face.“Okay aunty,” Leila replied as she nodded her head.When she saw the injection, she pretended that she was afraid of it and took a moment to close her eyes so she could try reaching out to Amaya.“What is Amaya doing? Is the drug affecting her?
