​Special Chapter​After watching the video his mother recorded, Jayce immediately went out and headed straight to the parking lot.​Oliver silently followed him. They were right. They already knew it for a long time, but they didn't want to ask her.​They knew that there was a connection between them the first time they saw them. They're just being cowards, again.​They didn't want to get their hopes up, even though they knew there was a chance. These two hot billionaires are being terrified? Only one woman could make them like this.​When they arrived at the chapel, the family had already left. Oliver left his car at the chapel and rode with Jayce.​"Jayden? Where are you?" Jayce asked as he called his brother.​"We're off to our rest house in Taytay, Rizal. Mom's siblings stayed at the chapel for a while. What's up? Dad has been worried." Jayden asked from the other line.​"We need to talk." Jayce made a U-turn

​Epilogue 2​"Yes, we're going to visit your Aunt Helia," Vareen said. A lot has already happened to her cousin. She still can't believe that her cousin, who was so distant from men, is also getting married. If I'm not mistaken, she's been with her husband for 9 years. That one's love life was so messy. Imagine falling in love with someone you're not supposed to be in love with.​"Oh yeah, I heard she just gave birth to her fourth child," Oliver commented.​After a while, Jayce arrived at the mansion, carrying a box of donuts from Starbucks. "Valerian, get the coffees from the car. I left them."​"Right away, boss." Valerian went to his dad's car and got seven cups of frappe from the passenger seat.​Valerian has been calling his father his "boss" because he's having his work immersion as a Grade 12 student at his dad's company. He has been told to take the same course his father did before, but he's choosing Entrepreneurship. Valeriu

​Epilogue 1​"Hey, Dad!" Valerius sat beside his father, Oliver. His class ended early, so he decided to join his Dad for dinner at his Mom's restaurant.​"You're late." Valerius placed his bag on the chair next to him and sat down, scratching his head. How could he not be late? He was swarmed by his fangirls.​"Sorry, Dad. It's almost hard to get past them." He pointed to the girls waiting outside the restaurant. They couldn't get in because you needed a pass to enter. Only the wealthy could get in; it's a hell of a luxurious restaurant.​Oliver called the attention of the guard and ordered him to make the girls leave. The guard nodded and followed the order. The other guards had a hard time making them leave, but after a while, they left on their own.​"Why did you get yourself involved in that group of yours if you didn't want to be swarmed?" Oliver asked.​"I just did a favor for my twin. He's the one who joined me in that

​Chapter 68​OLIVER​I got out of my car and greeted him with a hug. I couldn't see his reaction because he was wearing sunglasses.​"I-I'm sorry for not showing up." He said shortly.​"It's okay, I understand. You should at least show yourself there. Everyone is worried about you."​"It seems like you're the only one worried, as if they care about how I feel." I just shook my head. His friends and family are really worried about him. Maybe he's just used to them not being by his side whenever he's not doing well, whenever he has a problem, whenever something is wrong, and I'm the only one who has stayed by his side, no matter how much of an asshole he is. "We should probably get going,"​He got in his car, and I got in mine. I followed his car, and we stopped in front of a ba

​Chapter 67​OLIVER​"Condolences." I just stood there silently, watching the people flock to the memorial chapel where Jayce's deceased mother was laid to rest.​It was her who died three days ago. It has been three days since the consecutive incidents happened: the kidnapping, the killing, the bombing, and lastly, her death.​No one expected that she would die that afternoon. Everything just happened unexpectedly.​One of my Dad's colleague's sons, one of our close friends, stood beside me. "It's too early for Tita Minerva to go." I heard him say that to me. I sipped on the frappe I was holding and sighed.​"It really is." She took three bullets to save Jayce from getting hurt. She did that for him. Everything happened too quickly. Leon, on the other hand, killed that Primero afterward.​It has also been three days, and Jayce still hasn't shown up. I couldn't help but worry. He's not doing well right now.

​Chapter 65​VAREEN​I couldn't move from where I was standing. I still couldn't believe what was happening. The only thing I remembered from yesterday was talking to my Mom. A man arrived, and she suddenly covered my nose with a handkerchief containing a sedative.​I woke up earlier, tied to the bed, and that's when I saw my Mom's unconscious body and her blood splattered on the floor. Her body was full of stab wounds and was relentlessly shot.​I don't know why he did that to me, and I don't know why she was dead when I woke up. I don't know anymore!​Just when I found them again, this happens. What really happened? I almost didn't recognize Dad earlier with how he laughed and talked. He even said sorry, then said he should have killed me sooner?​What is it that my own father wants to kill me? What is happening that my Mom would do that to me?​I don't know if I should cry, or throw a fit, or just be sil

Chapter 110MALAKAI​I tried to keep my distance, but I could not stay away. Hours had passed since I last saw her, and the pain inside me was unbearable.​I hoped knowing her appointment went well would settle my mind and help me give her some space, but it did not help. I tried to make the doctor tell me about her visit, but he refused to say a word. Even with me, a strong Alpha, looming over him, he would not share her test results.​Our little friend had such a strong hold on everyone around her. As annoying as that was, I could not help but feel happy that our pack accepted her. Most of those who met her already showed they wanted to protect her.​She was our Luna in every way. I could not wait to tell her. She needed to know that she belonged to us and that the North and South were hers to rule.​As I walked to the living quarters to see her, I saw Thalia in the courtyard—my courtyard. She had been told to stay on Silas’ side.​Alaric had

Chapter 109ALARIC "I'm so tired, Alaric; I feel like I have no control over anything anymore," Isolde said, her voice shaking with fatigue and pain. Nova almost killed her, and while she deserves to die, I cannot live with that. Her soft, bare body rested against mine as she sat between my legs, and I held her to provide some comfort."It is not what you think, Isolde; come home with me and let my brothers and I explain," I pleaded, hoping to convince her to return.She pulled away to look at me. "Not what I think? I know my sister, and I know she wants me dead; she was behind it all!" Her eyes filled with tears as she spoke."Your sister? Elara is your sister? That is impossible," I said, surprised by this news."Not Elara, Thalia," she corrected, her voice full of annoyance. She leaned her head back on my chest and sighed.I did not understand what she meant and admitted, "I'm confused."Isolde let out a soft laugh, and the sound warmed

Chapter 108ALARIC "This damn wolf!" I shouted, my frustration peaking. I was not in the mood to hunt her down. My wolf growled back, enjoying the challenge as I changed."Find her and bring her to my study. It is time Isolde learned who her Alphas are," Silas growled, watching Nova, whose bright red fur looked like fire as she ran into the woods."Try not to die, brother," Malakai teased with a sly smile while kneeling next to my wolf form. He reached toward my back, and I snapped at him in annoyance. "When she guts you for trying to manhandle her, I will be right here to comfort her. Don't worry," he added, winking at me. This time, I snapped at his face. Malakai was annoying.I ran in the same direction she went, using my senses and our bond to track her. Flashes of her fur appeared through the dense trees, and Creed became more excited as I continued the chase. He liked this game, and the thrill of the hunt made him move faster."I almost have

Chapter 107ISOLDEMy body shook as I fought for control. Part of me did not want to stop Nova; I wanted to let her take over and end this miserable creature who had hurt me so many times."No, it was Draven." She said quickly, her voice shaking with fear."Draven? He is an idiot. He would not have the guts to do it unless he was sure he would win. And Amy, you already knew her well before she introduced herself to our pack." I squinted at her, my anger rising as everything connected in my mind."You even knew the night the Green Forest pack attacked." I accused her. Everything was clear now."I don't know what you are talking about or who the Green Forest pack is." She started begging, and the fear of death was visible on her face. Nova growled again, forcing Thalia to her knees. "You knew Amy's pack, and you knew her. You also planned for the second Lunas to be in the woods while the party was inside the pack house. You were the one who called me

Chapter 106ISOLDE ​"Oh, so you do not even know if they are true?"​"No, but I do believe that the forest holds great evil." The man walked over to a table of crystals. "Here, take these for free," he said, handing me three necklaces with bright red stones in the middle.​"What are they?"​"They are known as blood crystals. Some believe the darkness feeds on their natural power. If you are cursed by the forest or come into contact with it, the darkness will be drawn to the crystal instead of your soul."​"Is that true?" I flipped the pendant in my fingers. I did not feel any power from them, but I did not know if I should.​"I have no personal experience to say yes, but it was written to be true, so many believe it."​"I guess it cannot hurt to try. How do you know I need three?" I was looking for something to protect Aria and the other two babies.​"Intuition. My mother was the former owner of this shop. Many believed she had a real g

Chapter 105ISOLDE​"Me too, Amor. Like, when will you give me a real chance to be everything you desire?" He spoke so softly that my knees felt weak.​"I do not think they can answer that question," I smiled back at him.​"They are oracles; they can see the future. I know you are my future, so maybe they can tell me how long I have to wait."​"I know it will not be until after I take the South. My people have to come first this time."​"Really?" Both his hands wrapped around my waist, pulling my body flush against his. I could lose myself in him forever. "Then let us leave tonight. I will hand the South to you on a silver platter, then enjoy your sweet scent all night." His nose moved up my neck, his lips leaving a trail of kisses on my skin. He was so hard to resist.​"Patience, Malakai," I groaned.​"I have never been good at that." His head pulled back, his eyes gleaming into mine. "But anything for you." He gave me a small kiss on the l
