ALEXAAfter about an hour of discussion, Nicholas and I finally found common ground, and we decided to find the drug dealer who turns students into wolves. But for that to happen, we first need to discuss it with Jacob."Why does he have to mark me this big?" I thought, touching my neck. There's a big bite mark from Nicholas, but unlike the two holes you see in cartoons or movies, it's just a normal human bite. But it's purple and bruised like a love bite, and I'm not even sure my powder can cover it, and I don't have a foundation."Does he want this discussion to fail? He already knows Jacob still hopes for me, and I don't even know how to hide this bite from Mom," I grumbled, annoyed, but at the same time, I felt really happy. I enjoyed seeing this cold, stoic vampire seem jealous, and I was happy because now he was starting to melt more and show 'physical possessiveness' publicly. He even held my waist tightly as we walked out of the room, and I had to stay on guard and keep glanci

ALEXAI huffed, seeing Nicholas had once again only read my chat. Can we break a bond like humans break up with their partners? I don't know, but if this continues, I'll seriously consider breaking up with him.Life is already awful with Mom living here, and with Jacob so depressed about Harold, it makes things much worse. I don't have time to grieve or be sad about Harold because I'm the one who has to do everything, starting from inspecting the body. And now, when I need a little 'word of affirmation' or support from my supposed mate, he's not there either.Meetings at school? Tsk! It's a bit too awkward after that wolf accident and Harold's death, and I don't know why Nicholas is always so unpredictable and complicated.'Since Nicholas is a vampire, maybe I can break my bond by having Nathan bite me. I mean, Nathan is a vampire, right? Who knows, if I renew the bond with another vampire, then I could…' However, before that thought could fully materialize, a knock came from the wi

NO ONE POVThirty days had passed since Harold's death, and now everything was different. Nothing was the same anymore; everyone was grieving, and even Alexa's mom finally came to Forks.That old woman, who'd known nothing but pleasure her entire life, immediately fled her lavish wedding in France upon hearing of Harold's passing. She even tossed her wedding ring and severed ties with her lover the moment she saw Harold's body."Harold, oh Harold… Why did you leave me so fast…?" Alexa's mom wailed, staring at old photos of Harold on her phone. Now husband-less and consumed by grief, she was living in Harold's house with Alexa, Jacob, and Ashley. It was a bit disruptive, but what could Alexa do? She couldn't kick out someone who was grieving."But what about the wolf boy? Is he still grieving? He looks a bit thinner…" asked Nathan, who had somehow lingering in the kitchen. Ever since Jacob's accident, he had continually come to the house to 'check him.' At first, Alexa thought Nathan

NO ONE POVHarold walked alongside his sheriff's group. Although he was just a sucky sheriff, and the mayor had appointed him as the head sheriff because everyone was too lazy for the job, Harold still performed his duties well.He was a passionate man, and his main goal for working diligently was for his little boy."But not so little; he's a grown young man now with his little love problems," Harold thought, shaking his head. He still vividly remembered how that brutal teen used to be a little boy who looked at him as if Harold was his whole world. At that time, little Jacob aspired to be a sheriff because he wanted to be like Harold, and Harold even sold his wedding ring with his first wife to get a small hat that was an exact replica of Harold's. But sadly, now his only son had another world, and Harold wasn't in it."Hope everything goes well with him. I only hope my little boy is wise enough in love and doesn't become a loser like his father," Harold chuckled. Ever since Jacob g

JACOB(Jacob Smith’s Flashback Memory)"I like you.""What?"I pretended not to hear the words from the grubby girl in front of me. If you ask about my feelings now, actually, I felt happy and embarrassed.Happy because it was a joyful moment. I mean, who doesn't feel happy when someone confesses their love to you? But embarrassed? Well, of course, I was embarrassed.Who wouldn't feel embarrassed if the one confessing their love wasn't your type of girl, and worse, the ugly geek of the school.‘For a second there, I thought the one confessing to me would be a hot blondie… Guess my friend has a shitty mouth for lying about that,’ I thought, looking at the hottest girl in school. The girl I love is Ashley Winter, and always will be her. She's the one I've always had a crush on and loved since I stepped into this boring school, and she,Is the only girl who can make me feel I wasn't enough.Until now, I still feel I'm not enough, so I've never confessed my love to her, and can only watc

ALEXAI screamed. I screamed with all my might, but no matter how hard I tried, it seemed to not get through to his head."Jacob….Please, stop. I'm begging you… I—Ugh…!" I bit back my lips as the cursed sound of a moan escaped my mouth. Why did my body seem to enjoy it?With a loud smooch, Jacob growled before his lips moved down to my neck. I tried not to scream as he licked and bit it, and I try harder not to when his large hands cupped my breasts."Fuck…""So that's how it is, huh?"I turned towards the source of the voice and was shocked to see Nicholas standing in front of me. Since when had he been standing there?"Ni–Nicholas… this isn't what it looks like… Listen—I…" But before I could explain, my mouth released another moan. I moaned as Jacob pushed his length into my vagina, and no matter how many times I wanted to explain, I kept moaning.‘N-No…’Nicholas sighed when he saw me seemingly enjoying it, and without giving me more time, he turned away.I choked back a cry, tryin

Jack's father took a deep, shuddering breath, his tear-streaked face a stark contrast to the composed facade he usually wore. "It all started when I first met your mother," he began, his voice thick with emotion. "She was... she was perfect. The perfect mate, the perfect fate. I knew from the moment I laid eyes on her that she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with."Jack clenched his jaw, trying to push down the surge of emotion threatening to overwhelm him. "To the point, Father," he interjected, his voice steely with determination. "I don't need the sentimental details."His father nodded, wiping away his tears with a shaky hand. "Of course, Jack," he said, his voice more composed now. "After we were married, we were happy. Happier than I had ever been before. And when you came along, it was like... it was like all of my dreams had come true."Jack's heart clenched at the mention of his mother, a pang of longing shooting through him like a bolt of lightning. But he

Jack's hands tightened around the steering wheel as he approached the imposing gates of the Burkley household. It had been months since he had last set foot on the grounds, months since he had introduced Brianna to his family. And now, as he stared up at the sprawling mansion before him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of dread creeping over him.Parking his car in a secluded spot near the edge of the property, Jack took a moment to compose himself. He knew that confronting his father would not be easy, that it would dredge up painful memories and long-buried emotions. But he also knew that he couldn't continue living in the dark, that he needed answers—no matter how difficult they might be to hear.As he made his way towards the front door, Jack was greeted by the sight of an old servant waiting to receive him. The man's eyes widened in surprise at Jack's cold demeanor, clearly taken aback by the intensity of his anger."Master Jack," the servant stammered, bowing slightly. "I... I

As Brianna lay in her hospital bed, the events of the past few days weighed heavily on her mind. She tried to sleep, to escape from the turmoil that churned inside her, but sleep eluded her. Instead, she tossed and turned, her thoughts consumed by the darkness that threatened to engulf her.She couldn't shake the memory of Michael's taunts, his cruel laughter echoing in her ears. The realization that he had orchestrated the entire ordeal, that he had manipulated her into believing his lies, filled her with a sense of betrayal so profound it was almost suffocating. How could she have been so blind, so naive?And then, there was the truth—the truth about Jack's involvement, about the choices he had made that had led them to this point. It was a truth she wasn't sure she could bear, a truth that shattered the fragile illusion of love and trust she had built around him.A single tear slipped down her cheek as she lay in the darkness, her heart heavy with sorrow. She had wanted so desperat

The lighthouse door swung open, and there he was—Jack, her beacon of hope in the darkness. His voice carried a mixture of fear and relief as he called out to her, his presence flooding her with a sense of comfort she hadn't realized she'd been craving.But before Brianna could fully process Jack's arrival, Michael's sneer cut through the air like a knife. He tightened his grip on her arm, his voice dripping with contempt as he addressed Jack."So now Romeo is finally here, huh?" Michael scoffed, his eyes glittering with malice. "Well, that's classic. Never knew it would happen in real life too. And I never knew that I would be the villain. I always used to wish to be a Romeo."Jack huffed heavily, his chest heaving as he took in the scene before him. He had rushed up the stairs in a blur of desperation, fueled by the need to reach Brianna, to ensure her safety. Now, as he regained his composure, he stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Michael."Let go of her, Michael," Jack demanded, hi

As Jack stood outside, frustration gnawing at him, he heard the door open behind him. Turning, he saw Daniel emerging from the room, accompanied by Nina and a few others. Jack's brow furrowed in anticipation as he waited for Daniel to speak.Daniel approached Jack with a solemn expression, his gaze meeting Jack's with a sense of urgency. "Jack, we've made some progress," he began, his voice steady but grave. "Nina has confirmed that Sam and Michael have been seeking each other out a lot lately."Jack's frustration only deepened at the confirmation of his suspicions. "And what else did she say?" he pressed, his voice tight with tension.Daniel hesitated for a moment before continuing. "Nina didn't know the motive behind their meetings, but I believe it's clear that Sam was involved in this to elevate Nina's career by assisting Michael," he explained, his tone laced with conviction. "The timing of Brianna's disappearance and Nina's sudden rise to prominence is too much of a coincidence.

As Brianna sat sandwiched between Michael and Sam in the jeep, her heart pounded with fear and anger. She couldn't believe that Sam, the man who had been a fatherly figure to her, was involved in this betrayal. She shot him a glare, her eyes filled with accusation and disbelief."What are you doing here, Sam?" she demanded, her voice laced with anger. "And why are you doing this to me?"Sam lowered his head, unable to meet Brianna's gaze. The weight of his betrayal hung heavily upon him, his heart heavy with regret. But before he could respond, Michael's chilling voice cut through the tense silence."Sam is here because he knows where his loyalties lie," Michael replied, his tone cold and unforgiving. "And you, Brianna, are simply collateral in our plans."Brianna's eyes widened in shock at Michael's callous words. She couldn't believe that he saw her as nothing more than a pawn in his twisted game. Anger bubbled within her, but she suppressed it, knowing that any outward defiance wou

Elijah I swiftly return to my room after erasing the passersby's memories. What was I thinking?! “Oh, honey! You’re back! Do you want us to make lov—UGH!!” Without saying much, I point at the rogue whore’s eyes with my index finger, forming a circle. Soon, her eyes swirl as they follow my finger's movement. After enchanting some spells and replacing her memory with one where I fucked her, the whore stands up with blank eyes. I grimace as arousal begins to pool, covering her thighs. Just how wild is her imagination? “Here’s your payment. Thank you for your service,” I say curtly, handing her a generous amount. She nods her head before walking toward the door, still with that disgusting arousing liquid. It will take about five minutes until she gets back to normal, though. Once she’s gone, I sit on the edge of the heart-shaped bed, putting my head between my hands. I feel an indescribable dizziness, remembering that I didn’t just erase one memory but the whole brothel’s, including

RowenaI stood shocked after hitting the bumper, but even more, I’m taken aback by the way the stranger groped me. Why in the hell did he touch my breast?“I—” before I could utter something, the bumper immediately covered my mouth, and I was surprised to find that it’s the previous old man!“Shut up, sweetie,” the old man said, his breath smelling like cheap alcohol Javier used to drink. “Just be a good she-wolf for Daddy and enjoy this treatment, or else you will regret it…” Then, with one swing, he drags me to one of the unoccupied rooms. Panic immediately rose as I felt my son's grip loosen by force. I attempted to call for help, but somehow more people crowded this damn flat, and before I knew it, the door was already closed. The last thing I saw was the sight of my son running to the receptionist, who busy talking with one of the brothel’s mistresses.Inside the dark room, I scream and kick, begging the old man to stop, but instead of letting me go, he slaps me hard. I instantl

ElijahShit. That was all I could say about my life."Alpha... I...""No, not now, darling. I must go to work," I said, leaving the clingy Omega without a knot. She looked at me hopefully and nodded as if expecting me to return while I just smiled. Knowing that WOULDN’T happen as I had already ordered my subs to get rid of her. Who wants to keep a lustful she-wolf that only loves my money?Walking outside, I was met with the same stares as always: Fear."Where's the traitor?" I asked, holding a cigarette, and one of my subs immediately lit it. Soon, they brought me the traitor, bundled tight like a worm in its cocoon. Well, that's not wrong. After all, he would bloom as a beautiful butterfly.Fly away from my sight."Alpha, please... spare me, I..." I let out a sly smirk at his pathetic plea. Who was he to order Elijah Husky around?"Sorry, Artie. But rules are rules. You broke the contract and my trust," I said, pressing a Colt 1911 to his head. "And now, you must face the consequen

RowenaThe divorce process went faster than my mating process, and soon I became a widow with a single child at eighteen. I left with no money or even child support, as if Javier had planned to kick us out long ago.“Well, I should have expected this from the start. I should have followed my gut instead of believing this translucent mate bond,” I mutter, feeling another tear prickle my eyes. Although I’m the one who legally lost everything, I can’t help but feel sorry for my son. It’s already enough for him to be born as our child, and now he must endure another torment because his stupid mother can’t control her mouth.“Mommy, let’s go…” Asher tugged my shirt. I wiped my tears, feeling embarrassed he caught me crying.“A-Alright, sweetie, let’s go…” I said, quickly carrying the luggage along with my son as I didn’t want to tire his already fragile body.Walking on the hill, I stopped at one of the nearby trees. I stared at the Lavish Pack’s scenery, and a flood of memories surfaced

RowenaThe room immediately turned into huge chaos as soon as the old hag came. Vivi’s mom, who works as the Alpha’s advisor, screams as she sees the state her daughter’s in. She ran and held Vivi’s head and whispered comforting words while crying and kissing her rapidly. The chaos intensified when servants came to see what the commotion was about, and I could feel their accusing gazes fall on me. I lowered my head, not wanting to add another drama by silently retreating, but got stopped as Vivi’s mom stood up and slapped me.“You..." she trembled before slapping once more. “How dare you beat my daughter?! Who are you to hit my daughter, huh?! Answer me!!” She hollered, this time hitting me with a nearby vase. I felt dizzy as blood started to pour, either from my head or nose.“Tsk! I should have made him throw you into the woods back then! What was I thinking when I suggested you be a slave instead and—” As she began to rant, I’m just silent instead of talking back. Not because of

RowenaI always thought that being eighteen should be the happiest moment of my life. I always dream of waking up and seeing my parents’ joyful faces, bringing me cakes, and singing me happy birthday. How Dad sneaks me wine and lets me drive his car just like two years ago, and how on this eighteenth birthday, I will see them stand proudly beside me as I transform into a full wolf. But no. That’s not going to happen. Not anymore. Not after they die in perished flame because of my foolishness and the goddess’ cruel fate that gave me this monster as my mate.“Hey, why are you not moaning?” Javier slaps, not slowing his thrust. “Are you tired?! Is my dick not big enough for you?! Should I call the boys to make you moan with one fuck?!” he screamed, pushing himself harder. My eyes widened in shock as another tear fell from my eyes.No…Please… Not the boys again...“No… Please, I can’t endure it anymore. I…” and once again, I’m being slapped. I forgot I had no right to speak without his c
