Kiara sat cross-legged on her bed, the dim glow of her laptop illuminating her face. She slipped on her Cherry costume a vibrant red wig and glittery mask that hid her identity perfectly. Logging onto her social media account, she clicked the button to go live, and within seconds, the screen filled with messages and hearts."Cherry! You're glowing as usual!""We love you, Cherry!""Sing something for us!"Her lips curved into a smile as the adoration poured in. It was moments like this that made her feel alive, even if only behind the facade of Cherry.Among the flood of comments, the username "GoldenAlpha01" popped up again. The message was simple but caught her attention: "You're incredible. I hope to meet you someday."Kiara hesitated, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. Who was this person? And why did their name send an inexplicable shiver down her spine?Her heart skipped a beat when she noticed Britney, Layla, and Shirley had also joined her live stream. They showered Cherr

The sun streamed through the tall windows of the school hallway as Kiara moved swiftly amongst the crowd, her thoughts preoccupied with the email she'd received the night before. She kept her head down, clutching her books tightly to her chest.Halfway to her class, she felt a sudden shift in the air, the kind that came when someone was waiting for her. She looked up to see Britney, Layla, and Shirley standing in front of her, their arms crossed and smug expressions plastered on their faces.Britney, the Beta's daughter, was the first to speak, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "Well, if it isn’t the Alpha’s new charity case. We’ve been meaning to have a little chat with you."Kiara clenched her jaw but said nothing. She tried to move around them, but Shirley stepped in her way, blocking her path."Not so fast," Layla said, flipping her perfectly styled hair. "We just have one question: why were you riding in John’s car yesterday?"Kiara froze, her heart skipping a beat. Of course, they

Kiara hurried down the stairs, her backpack slung over one shoulder and a stack of books clutched tightly in her arms. Her phone was wedged between her ear and shoulder blade as she spoke to her best friend, Trixie, who sounded panicked on the other end of the line.“Relax, Trix. I’m on my way now,” Kiara said, breathless as she reached the front door.“Relax? Kiara, the test is about to start! If you’re late, Mrs. Porter won’t let you in, and you know how strict she is,” Trixie replied, her voice shrill.“I know, I know. I’m moving as fast as I can.” Kiara reached the car park and froze.Her mother.Sarah, and Richard were standing near one of the sleek black SUVs, preparing to get in. The sight made her stomach sink. She had hoped to leave unnoticed, but clearly, that wasn’t going to happen.“Mom, Richard,” Kiara called out hesitantly as she approached.Sarah turned, smiling when she saw her. “Kiara, where are you going in such a rush?”“School, of course. Where else?” Kiara replied,

Kiara stared at the screen of her laptop, the glow lightening up her anxious expression. The message from GoldenAlpha01 lingered in her mind.“We need to talk, Cherry.”She had no idea who they were or how they’d found her stream. The username felt ominously familiar, and a shiver ran down her spine at the thought of her secret identity being exposed.Her fingers hovered over the keyboard before she finally typed a response:“I’m not available for private conversations, but you can leave a message with my manager.”Her lips twisted in a wry smile. Manager? She didn’t even have one. But it was the perfect excuse to avoid whatever this person wanted.She hit send, shut her laptop, and lay back on her bed, staring at the ceiling. Sleep eluded her as her mind raced with questions. Who was GoldenAlpha01? Why did they want to talk to her? And, most importantly, did they know who she really was?Her thoughts drifted to her stepbrothers. The coincidence of the name “GoldenAlpha” gnawed at her

The sun hung low over the city, casting golden hues over the bustling streets of the werewolf kingdom. “I'll call you when I get home.” She heard a girl say from a distance “I know you will.” The other replied and she smiled,her best friend wasn't in school today and it made it one of the longest periods in school.Kiara Simpson tugged her hoodie tighter around her, shielding herself from curious gazes as she stepped off the bus. The move to her new family had been overwhelming, but what was worse was the cold reception from her stepbrothers. They made it painfully clear she was an outsider in their perfect pack.The grand gates of the Golden Fang Pack estate loomed ahead, their ornate design a testament to the pack’s wealth and power. Taking a deep breath, Kiara trudged forward, her heart sinking at the thought of the hostility waiting inside. She glanced at the imposing mansion, its grandeur only amplifying her feelings of inadequacy.Her mother, Sarah, had married Alpha Richard R

NOAH'S POV I looked at her from where I stood, her face held no expression, not like I wanted anything from her."Your house is still the same, I've really missed this place." Elena said tugging at my shirt.I turned to look at her, her face was still pale, the same way she had looked when she walked into my office earlier today."I'm dying Noah." She had said with tears streaming down her face.I had been both shocked and confused but I had no time to think before drawing her now slim frame into a tight hug."You'll be fine Elena." I had said as I pat her back continuously till she went silent.After giving her water and watching her empty the content of the bottle, she had gone ahead to tell me how she was diagnosed of cancer, the details were just too much for me to take in.It had ended with me agreeing for her to come stay at mine for a while, I explained to her that I had gotten married, she didn't seem to have any issue with that."Is this your wife?" She asked moving over to

SAMANTHA'S POV We finally moved to the new house, this time, he was nice enough to give me my own room."The housekeepers will be available in case you need help with anything." I looked at the people he called his housekeepers, there was an elderly lady, a young girl and a man who I assumed was the Gardner, they had their quarter behind the house."Welcome Ma." They all said in Unison."Thank you." I replied before following him to the room he wanted to show me.I returned to my own room after the tour round the house, the place was even more luxurious and big, way more than I had imagined.I took my shoes off and laid down on my soft bed, my thoughts wandering off to the past events of the previous days.My stepmother and my sister were to be released later in the day, I hoped whatever they might have gone through in police custody would be enough to make them leave me alone, atleast I was sure that they wouldn't find me here.Mum was scheduled for a surgery later in the week, I

NOAH'S POVI hated Scandals!I hated having my name up on the net for the wrong reason.I hated when bloggers had a field day with my name and the worst part, I hated having to watch her shake like a wet puppy in my presence."I honestly didn't take the necklace, I don't know why they're doing all this." She said as more tears streamed down her face.I had heard the sound of something crashing while I was busy with work, only to rush downstairs and found her wet, eyes wide open like she had seen a ghost with her body shaking vigorously.She had shown me the headline after I kept on trying to find out the issue.It was my first scandal and I hated the look of it."Are you sure it was your sister that did this?" I asked again because it didn't make sense that one's own blood would want to go this far."Yes, she sent me a message earlier demanding I sent her money so she would bury the issue, I didn't reply and she decided to do this." "Okay, I believe you. No matter what, stay indoors

SAMANTHA'S POV "I don't know how that found it's way into my bag, I swear I didn't put it there." "Then who did? You think my mum and I would do that to accuse you or what?" Lisa said coming to stand in front of me."I didn't, I honestly didn't take that, have no idea how it got into my bag." I tried saying again but my stepmom was already dragging me by my hair.It took the help of Noah for her to stop, he stood in between us and took the bag from her.Bringing out the necklace, he gave it to Lisa without saying a word."Noah, you see the woman you choose to marry? This is how she is, always taking what doesn't belong to her, this isn't the first and I'm sure it wouldn't be the last." Lisa said shooting dagger stares at me.When she had said she was going to take everything from me, I never knew this was how low she could go to destroy the little peace I thought I had made for myself."Samantha, don't think because you're married you can escape this, don't worry, you'll Rot in jai

SAMANTHA'S POV"But I'm trying to help too, you think I enjoy this?" I retorted.He stood up and left the room, totally ignoring me. I sat back on the couch in anger.Who did he think he was? It wasn't my fault that we were in this situation, so why was I the only one looking for the watch? What was even so special about it? It was just a $200 wristwatch.He was even threatening me, how does he expect me to bring it back in a week? He's a disrespectful drunk and I hate myself for being in this situation with him."Can you extend the deadline to maybe a month? I promise to look under the earth to get it." I yelled at the top of my voice.Silence.Ruthless much.I rested my head on the table in frustration, my head filled ways to get back the only thing that tied us together, soon enough before my dad finds out.My phone beeped from my side pocket, I picked it up to see a call from my Dad."Samantha, can you let Noah know we're hosting a dinner later and I would really want him to be

SAMANTHA'S POV I went upstairs to find him at the beginning of the stairs."You should be more careful around her, I don't think she likes you that much." He said and went down the stairs."Okay"I turned and went back to the room, whatever had happened today was embarrassing, there was no way I wanted a repeat of it.What was the meaning of what she said? I knew my sister to be a meanie when she wants to and her mum? They were both a recipe for chaos when working together."What do I do?" I muttered to myself as I sat down on my bed.Here I was in an arranged marriage with a man I had spent a night with, someone I had thought I wouldn't meet again, I was still trying to navigate that part and now my sister wants to complicate things for me.This was one of the times I wished mum was here, she would have known what to do, I missed her, I missed her even more now, I hated the fact that I was thrown into being in full survival mood all the time.My Dad? He couldn't do more even if it w
