Chapter: Chapter 119Hello guys, so the last chapter was supposed to be an author's note. I'm not really familiar with the author's center interface, so please bear with me. So, guys, I understand that I haven't uploaded any chapters for over two months, and that's because of my health. I'm really really sorry about that, but my health is not entirely under my control. I had to rush the story even though I had a lot planned out(walking you guys through on how Claire was caught, and what happened with Alfredo and his family). I just had to wrap it up because I feel it's long overdue. I know many of you must have forgotten about one or two details regarding the story, but for every single one of you that sticked to the end, I'm super grateful 🙏🏽. This is actually my first story, and the love you guys showed me was immense. Thank you so very much, and God bless you all. I hope to see your support whenever I come up with a new story. Kindly leave your honest reviews and criticism, on the general comment

Chapter: Chapter 118Alpha Farrell's POV Two Months Later. It's been two whole month since I found out that Gabriella and I were mates, and all the saga that led us to this moment. Alfredo has been stripped off his position as Alpha, and his family exiled from the Pack, they're basically rogues with nothing but scraps to feed on. Princess Sheila on the other hand, was given a more milde punishment. Lockhart was still under Nightshade's while she served as an omega in the Packhouse. This was the mildest punishment we could give her, since it was with her help I was able to locate Alfredo after he secretly changed the location where he held Gabriella and the boys. The first phone call I had received was from her. But Alfredo found out she was tipping me off, and used her to lure me into a trap. Where he used those rogues who attacked us to secretly inject us with wolfsbane, making us weak and powerless. Princess Sheila still came to the rescue, soon after Alfredo came to gloat while I was chained,

Chapter: Chapter 117Melissa’s POV One month later.The gown in front of me was sparkling, casting glittering lights from its reflection as the helpers helped me don it.“It’s pretty, mummy,” Daemon said with his brother running behind him.The helpers stood at the door, stopping them from reaching me for fear of them ruining it.“Let them in,” I said, waiting for my boys to run into my arms.They came in haste, but mounting their distance, even as curiosity pushed at them to touch my gown.“My wife is going to wear one like this when I get married,” Damian said as he caressed the gown.I threw him a smile, bending as low as my gown would allow me to touch their heads. “Of course she would,” I said as I pinched his cheeks.“Are you ready?”I raised my head to meet Aiden as he stood in front of the room, dressed elegantly, for the matter. “I am.” The answer was no surprise for me as I straightened my gown while Aiden held out his arm for me.“You wouldn’t want to keep the groom waiting for too long,” he s

Chapter: Chapter 116Gabriella’s POV I stood like a display doll in front of the entire Silverrose, as I listened to Alfredo give a glamorous speech to justify why he's an asshole.I can't wait for all this to be over so Alfredo can take me to see my voice. He has done all he can to break me, and since he wasn't succeeding, he stopped so low as using my boys, our kids to threaten me.‘I only want you Mel, we can make more babies,’ he said, holding a knife over Damian. My baby was so scared and called out to me for help but I couldn't do anything. Now in order to keep my kids alive, I'm subjecting myself to an eternity of hell on earth. But I can endure all that, as long as my boys are fine. The look on Farrell's face when I told him I wanted to be with Alfredo broke me every time I thought about it.Alfredo nudged me, which was his cue, telling me to smile. I forced a smile, as Alfredo took another gulp of wine.“You're mine forever now, Mel,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper as he brought out

Chapter: Chapter 115Claire's POVToday makes it exactly four days since I saw Aiden and Alpha Farrell last. From what I was told, they suddenly got into their car and drove off. At first I was worried that maybe, somehow they'd figured out that Gabriella was in Silverrose Pack, but I called Alfredo and he confirmed that they never showed up at his Pack.I didn't take his words for it when he told me, but everywhere has been calm, and there's no way in hell that Alpha Farrell found Gabriella and Alfredo still have his head.“Don't get happy too quickly,” Anya said through the mindlink. “I’ve got a feeling that this is the calm before the storm.”“Yeah right,” I replied, rolling my eyes. “There's no storm coming. If there's one thing, the storm already happened and this is the calm after the storm.”“But–”“Not now, Anya!” I snapped. “Alfredo is going to mark and announce Gabriella as his Luna today, and we’re going to witness that alongside anybody,” I explained. “So, no matter what storms come after this

Chapter: Chapter 114Alpha Farrell's PovHow we arrived at the location in the text was a total blur. The stone walls of the shrines were cracked and filled with overgrown vines.As we stepped towards the entrance of the shrine, the door to the shrine creaked open.“Ah, Alpha Farrell,” Alfredo called out gingerly, spreading his arms wide like he was seeing an old friend. “I must say, I'm disappointed you didn't send an official letter. I would have made your welcome, more… memorable,” he smirked.“Cut the crap, Alfredo!” I snarled, bringing out my claws, as I marched forward, Ora flashing in my eyes. “Where's Gabriella? Where are my boys?”“Your boys?” Alfredo chuckled darkly. “I think you're getting things wrong, Alpha Farrell,” he said, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “THEY ARE MY BOYS. And as for my MATE, I'm sure she doesn't want to see you.”“Alfredo!” I growled, charging towards him.“Farrell!” Aiden called out to me from behind.“What?!” I snapped irritatedly, turning sharply to face him

Chapter: Chapter 8 2Larissa's POV Claire started crying before we’d even pulled into the hospital parking lot.She’d been fine at breakfast, nibbling pieces of pancake and humming to herself. But the moment Brayden had said the word hospital and Stephanie had made a poorly timed joke about shots, she’d stiffened. By the time we tried loading into the car, she'd already started wailing, determined to fight us every step of the way.“No shot!” She cried, hiccuping between sobs.“You’re not getting a shot.” Stephanie promised, over and over, rocking her gently in the backseat. “It’s just a quick check. No shots.”Claire didn’t believe her. To Claire, hospitals meant needles, and needles meant betrayal. She screamed the whole drive, the sound vibrating through the car that I was surprised our eardrums didn't burst.By the time we arrived at the hospital, she was still wailing and flailing around in Stephanie’s arms in an effort to escape.Inside, the hospital smelled like antiseptic and faint lemon cleaner.

Chapter: Chapter 82Larissa's POV I don’t think I’d ever hated the press more than I did that morning.Even before we reached the courthouse steps, the air was electric with anticipation. Flashes lit up the gray sky like lightning, and reporters shoved their microphones so close that our driver had to honk twice just to inch us forward. But the cameras weren’t on Brayden or me today. Not even on Benjamin.They were here for Claire.The child Benjamin claimed didn’t exist.Stephanie carried her out of the car, holding her firmly against her hip. Claire was dressed in a pale yellow dress with little white shoes, and sunflower-shaped shades. She was too young to know she was at the center of a legal battlefield. But that also meant she wasn't fully aware of what was going on so she was waving at everyone as we made our way up. She thought this was all just some fun parade.Brayden glared at them all like he could set them on fire through sheer force of will. I don't think he had stopped drowning since the

Chapter: Chapter 80Larissa's POV Stephanie strode up with the kind of confidence only she could muster in a courtroom full of people itching to see blood. She swore in, sat, and crossed her legs as though she were on a talk show rather than the witness stand.Benjamin frowned when he saw her; it was barely perceptible, but it was there. In return, Stephanie just smiled sweetly at him.“Ms. Sylvester, how would you describe Mr. Benjamin Patterson?” Carter began.Her lip curled. “Manipulative. Arrogant. The kind of man who believes consequences don’t apply to him. He carried himself like he believed he was better than everyone else. It was exhausting to watch.”“Could you explain that?” Carter asked.“Objection. Leading.” Harrington countered.“Overruled.” Judge Henderson said. “Go ahead and answer the question.”“When Benjamin and Lara started dating, he came to our place a couple of times. It was the house that we had grown up in and we inherited it after our parents passed.” Stephanie explained. “One

Chapter: Chapter 79Larissa’s POV Two days later, I was back in that suffocating courtroom, and the weight in my chest hadn’t lessened. If anything, it had grown heavier.Carter had explained what would happen: today was the defense’s turn. Today, the jury would hear our side, our witnesses. But knowing that didn’t make it easier to sit under the fluorescent lights, knowing I’d soon be the one in the witness box.Carter had told me not to rehearse too much so that I wouldn't sound scripted and fake. But I couldn't help it. How else was I supposed to stay calm and deliver my testimony without stuttering if I didn't practice? I'd paced a hole in the bedroom floor, anxiously going over what I would say until Brayden had dragged me to bed and held me down until I'd fallen asleep in his arms.“Don’t worry. You'll be brilliant.” Stephanie had said as I’d helped her with her hair that morning.It was easy for her to say. She wasn't the murder suspect. And Stephanie had her unadulterated rage for Benjamin to fu

Chapter: Chapter 78Larissa's POV When we got back in, the prosecution had lined up their witnesses, each one neatly typed into a schedule, as though this were just a normal day of business meetings instead of the day my life would be picked apart piece by piece.I smoothed my skirt as we sat back down after the morning formalities. Brayden was beside me, posture sharp and alert. Stephanie sat on my other side, tapping her foot in irritation, already bored out of her mind.The prosecutor — Mr. Harrington, still smug as though this trial were already a victory lap — stood and adjusted his tie. “Your Honor, the State would like to call Officer Daniel Hughes to the stand.”A bailiff led a man forward. He was tall, lean, his uniform crisp even though he wasn’t technically on duty. He raised his right hand, swore the oath, and sat.“Officer Hughes.” Mr. Harrington began, “Can you tell us about the night in question?”The officer nodded with practiced calm. “I was called to the scene following reports of a d

Chapter: chapter 77Larissa's POV The last time I had been in a courthouse, it was for Brayden and I's wedding.The wedding has been more or less a private affair. I hadn't invited any of my friends or family members because they all thought me to be a murderer and wouldn't have come anyway. My dress was long enough to cover my ankle monitor and my veil thick enough to hide my expression from the crowd.So much has changed since then.For one, this wasn't a private affair. Anyone with even the slightest ear for news and/or gossip knew of this trial. So that meant that reporters, vloggers, and randos were stationed at the entrance of the courthouse with their cameras and microphones. Even before we stepped out of the car, there was the noise from the questions being thrown at us, and the multiple flashes from the camera were evident. Some people had scrawled words of encouragement — or otherwise depending on whose side of the story they believed — on placards and cardboards and waved them as we drove by.

Chapter: Chapter 83ADELE'S POVI heard inaudible whispers not so far away from me but I kept my eyes closed as I remembered vividly the incident of just a while ago. The room smelt of wood and dust and the floor where I laid felt so cold and hard, I tried to guess where I could be without pulling my eyes open as my heart beat grew louder by the seconds, I didn't want any of the people in the room realizing I was now awake. I was visibly shaking and knew for a fact that whoever it was certainly would have noticed I was up already if he stood a bit close to me. I tried so hard to figure out who it was as I kept on raking my brains about who my enemies were, I could place my hands around any who would do a thing of such to me, it couldn't be Angel or any of his men, they wouldn't stoop sow low to do this to me.I immediately began to regret not accepting the lift from Joe, and even deciding to leave so early. What the fuck was I even thinking? But then it dawned on me, what if it was Angel and he had reali

Chapter: Chapter 82ANGEL'S POVI walked out of Adele's room clearly with a heavy heart, the day had gone on so quickly and I clearly was looking forward to closing it up with her, but her sudden switch of mood wasn't only weird, but it also was alarming, I had earlier thought she was tired of being trapped inside of the house making me turn back around to make a statement I had vowed never to. I stood right in front of her door for a moment as I struggled with myself if I should go back in or get my fucking ass out of her sight, I clearly couldn't defeat it, and like a puppy, I buried my head down and slowly pushed her door open. She wouldn't even look up at who had just walked in as she seemed so lost in her thoughts. I sighed out loudly before speaking.“You know you can go off whenever you like right?” Adele simply nodded but wouldn't say anything else. Right then I knew they had to b

Chapter: Chapter 81ADELE'S POVJust a few seconds after Angel had walked out of my room, I held unto my head not knowing what to do, tears were beginning to gather up in my eyes when my door creaked open once again, I didn't bother lifting up my head so whoever it was wouldn't see the look in my eyes but then I heard his voice.“You know you can go out whenever you want right?” I paused for a moment but still wouldn't look up at him and then I nodded slightly in response. He seemed to know there was something wrong with me but I guess he drew up a conclusion that I only needed my freedom back, that was it, but in another line. I sniffled out lightly as I tried to put myself together, his statement seemed more like an approval for me to go on with the plan. I held out my phone and texted Denver, I couldn't call him as I didn't trust I would be able to hold out in a phone conversation. My

Chapter: Chapter 80DENVERI heard the beep sound of my phone just a little while after I had retired to bed and I knew who it was. It had been days since Adele went missing or should I say she stayed locked in, she had texted me to inform me she was willing to become a part of my plans. Sincerely, I had thought she wouldn't want to get involved considering how our last meeting ended. She certainly felt betrayed and I couldn't even defend myself, the truth was, I actually approached her for my own interest. But I had no intentions of forcing her against her own will, she had done more than enough for me and I should at least be grateful for that. At some point I began to question if involving her in this was the right thing to do, for some reasons she seemed to have gotten attached to her own enemy which was Angel, and letting her in with my plans might be a bit too risky. But I had too, it was necessary I gave her the opportunity to choose.

Chapter: Chapter 79ANGEL'S POVI found myself taking slow steps towards the counter I walked away from a while back. Seeing Adele on the wine dress, I couldn't picture her on any other jewelry from the one I had seen just a while ago. I took it while Adele wasn't looking and demanded it be added to my cart. I then thought of dumbing it into one of the shopping bags but I was sure Adele wouldn't see the need to put it in, she may even consider it a mistake, so instead I tossed it into my inner pocket and went along with her. She didn't seem satisfied with whatever we concluded on in every clothing store. For a moment I was tempted to let her get whatever she so desperately wanted to wear, but that would only mean allowing a dressing blunder to walk side by side with me.I didn't even realize we had spent most of our day out and for worse, my phones were left out in the car most of the time.

Chapter: Chapter 78ADELE'S POV I sat up in my bed as I scrolled through my gallery, my eyes wouldn't drop down and for a moment I thought they were gonna explode due to all I was seeing. Arina had left just moments ago and of course without a clue I had gone through her brief case, I was able to cover it all up by picking out a lipstick from my collection and pointing it towards her face. She had looked at me for a moment in confusion before I spoke.“What shade do you think would go well on this dress, this?” She took it out from my hand before I could be done speaking and then she at it momentarily before letting out a loud laughter.“You are quite unbelievable, Adele!” She began as she laughed on. I looked back at the lipstick and only then did I realize I picked out a light pink and not red like I had assumed.“You gonna put on pink lipstick with this?” She asked, looking down on the dress. I pulled my mouth open to deny it, but shut it close, it was better that way, she already believed I knew abs
