Chapter: Chapter 122VIOLET'S POVThere was no denying the fact that Ares was there. He had been there, and I could smell his scent on the baby. Even the way Elmyra and Jackie had been acting did nothing but confirm my thoughts. I didn't mind. I didn't have any issues with the whole thing. Because I knew that Ares would never hurt his child even if he had wanted to kill me in the past. But smelling his scent up close like that just brought back so many memories that it wasn't supposed to. It made me cry at night.And of course, there was literally no one to tell when those things came. Jackie was busy as well, and Elmyra was finally the female alpha. It had never happened before, but there she was, making a difference more than anyone in the world. There she was, pushing the pack forward.I placed the baby in his cot as soon as I finished feeding him. I was already searching for a name that I wanted to give him. But even that was taking time. It seemed hard to even think of something. I knew that Are

Chapter: Chapter 121ARES' POVTHREE MONTHS LATERI had gotten the information that Violet was in labour, and I wanted to be there more than anything. I had been going to her doorstep every day, morning and evening, trying to get to talk to her, but she obviously wasn't interested. She didn't want to talk to me. It was either that she was ignoring me, or she looked and refused to say anything while I begged her. I knew that I fucked up big time by accusing her of just going to hide. But I was also under so much pressure, and I couldn't see her properly. But I could swear on anything that I was not responsible for keeping her or maltreating her at any point. Even if the voice in my head didn't want me to go and see her, I was still compelled. I could not let her go through so much pain alone. I didn't want her feeling like I had abandoned her. I wanted to be there for her the way I was supposed to be right from the beginning. I parked the car right in front of their pack gate. Jackie ran to me immedi

Chapter: Chapter 120VIOLET'S POVAres seemed broken as he begged me to stay at the palace. He was almost down on his knees, and I could see him rolling on the floor if I even spent a second more there. I turned back one more time, only to meet his worried face and Belladonna's worried one. Her eyes were fixed on Ares and back at me. It was almost like she wanted to tell me to stay back but could not bring herself to say the words. I headed out of the pack, with my bags in my arms. I looked at the building through the exterior part of the gate. I was thankful that there were no pack members that were there to stop me. “Luna”, someone called out to me, and I closed my eyes, wanting to ignore and run away. “Please turn and look at me,” the voice said in an almost pleading voice. I succumbed, already feeling too weak to do otherwise. I didn't know why I felt a little bit relieved when I turned and saw Cole, one of the guards. I took pride in the fact that I knew almost all their names. Of course, I was

Chapter: Chapter 119VIOLET'S POVI allowed myself to be dragged away by the masked men. I didn't even want to ask where they were taking me. I was just glad to be out of that airless room. I was honestly weak since the last thing I had was a bottle of water in whatever amount of hours I had been at this place. I had been in a situation like this before. Eric was a living testimony. But they were not Eric. These people were different. I had absolutely no idea how I was even still able to walk as they pushed me to wherever I was being led to. It was the first time I had been out of the room with my eyes open. I was finally fully sane after such a long time. The hallway was filled with different rooms, all with the same doors. I couldn't help but wonder if that was where other people were kept. If there were other people. They finally opened up one of the doors and pushed me in, as they dumped me on one of the chairs. I was patient enough to wait for whatever was coming after that. I noticed that I was

Chapter: Chapter 118ARES’ POVThe way I hurried outside with Colton was out of this world. I could feel the others coming behind me. I just needed to see that print. I was the one who got the shoes. I had gotten the particular sole print that she liked. So I was going to identify them anywhere. Torches were flashing at every point. People were starting to get the hint that there was actually something wrong. Every single person wanted to see what was actually happening. Just like me, they wanted to see the print. Even if they didn’t know her shoe sole print, they could at least identify her shoe size.I held my breath as we got close to the backyard. Cole looked back, as if asking me if I really wanted to see what he was about to show. I gave him a small nod, and he finally pointed at the place. The backyard was slightly muddy. I could already picture a struggle. A small smile wanted to creep on my lips. Of course, my Violet was not just going to give up just like that. She was going to fight with th

Chapter: Chapter 117ARES' POVI wanted to sit. I wanted to breathe. But I couldn't. Finding Violet was more important. How could she not be in the pack as a whole? Elmyra was obviously trying not to cry, while Jackie tried her best to remain neutral and strong for Elmyra as she tried petting her. Indigo was continuously jittering in her sleep. I was worried about the kind of connection that she had with Violet. It was starting to feel like it wasn't safe. Akira was carrying her in different ways just to make sure that she was not going to wake her up. We both knew that if she woke up, she was going to be crying continuously. And we didn't want that. “She was right in front of me an hour ago,” Elmyra said as she sniffled. “She was finally happy. The revenge thing was over. She could finally sleep. And now this is happening?”Luna and Lynn were worried as well. We were practically the only ones that knew she was missing. Luna didn't want us alarming the guests just yet. She still felt Violet was somewh

Chapter: Chapter 47Third Person POVHazel stood awkwardly alone in the living room. Noah has just taken Alice and disappeared; it wasn't something she had expected from him. She turned around hesitantly and faced Sara."Uuhm, so I'll be going now," she said awkwardly as she walked slowly towards the door. Sara watched her for a few moments while she smiled at Hazel."Are you feeling all better?" She asked Hazel, who was half a meter away from the door. Hazel nodded her head as she turned to look at the smiling old lady."Oohh, don't mind me, I was simply reminded of the better days," she said. "When I was in love and cared about nothing else but the man whom I loved," she finished.Hazel shifted from toe to toe, unsure of how to respond to her; she didn't want to ask any questions that would extend her time there with Sara."How have you been enjoying my medicine?" She asked suddenly; irritation flashed through Hazel's eyes, but she forced down the feeling; she wanted out of here, not stuck here while s

Chapter: Chapter 46Third Person POVThalia paced back and forth while she thought to herself; she hadn't been able to reach him for the past twenty-four hours, and although she had called him severally, he wasn't picking up his phone.She looked for her bag and brought her phone, failing his number once again. The phone rang for a few moments, but there was no answer. She got even more frustrated.She couldn't know what actions or decisions he had decided to make, especially after what happened on the night of the mating ceremony."You need to calm down," Elara said as she watched Thalia pace about the room, but Thalia couldn't calm down; she needed to understand the situation before she could make the next move."I can't calm down," she said. "He should have called me by now; this is taking too long." She sat down on her bed as she buys her lip in frustration."Do you think that maybe he wasn't aware of what Draven planned?" Elara asked her, and Thalia thought for a bit; to her, it seemed entirely pos

Chapter: Chapter 45Third Person POV"Excuse me?" Hazel blurted out with a shocked expression on her face. She looked back and forth between Sara and Draven as neither said anything.She had known that eventually something like this would happen, but her finding out like this was unprecedented. She looked back at Draven; this time he held her gaze; he didn't look away but leveled his eyes directly on her. She felt a shiver run down her spine as she pushed away the lewd thoughts that flooded her mind. "Are you sure this would work?" Alpha Draven asked Sara after looking away from Hazel. He held his hands together whilst deep in thought. After what had happened to him this morning, he wasn't ready to take any chances that might result in him harming anyone else. The feeling he felt back then was similar to how he felt years ago while he hunted down The Fang. He looked towards Hazel, who seemed to be clattering nervously in her sleep.He could understand what she felt; she wasn't ready for anything of th

Chapter: Chapter 44Third Person POV"What the fuck, Adrian?" Hazel said she was shocked; out of all the states she expected to see Adrian in, she hadn't expected to see him being mounted by a woman, with him liking and looking into her eyes.Adrian immediately turned and looked at Hazel; his eyes widened with shock, but the girl who sat on him stayed on him; she didn't even look at Hazel; she didn't seem bothered in the slightest that Hazel had just casually run into the room.Hazel being ignored while she held down a broken Adrian made her even more furious; she didn't come all the way here just to deal with nonsense like this."Hazel," Adrian said surprised; his voice sounded weak and cracked, like he hadn't drank water in a very long while. "It's not what you think," he struggled to free himself, but the woman simply held him down. Then she turned and smiled at Hazel. Hazel was lost for a moment, lost in the woman's beautiful red hair and dazzling blue eyes. Her smile irritated Hazel to the point th

Chapter: Chapter 43Third Person POV"Sara" Adrian croaked as he tried sitting up on the bed. He looked at the priestess of the pack; he remembered when his uncle had brought her to the pack.He had ignored her then because she didn't do anything except stay locked up in her house. "What are you doing here?" He asked her suspiciously; he had enough reason to suspect her because he never knew the true intentions of Sara.And uncle had brought her himself, which made trusting her even more difficult. "Tending to your wounds," she said with a bright smile. She turned away from him and faced the girl with bright red hair. "You know you could be nicer; I keep telling you," she said to her, but got cut off by her. "You don't have to nag at me with every chance you get, Mom," Alice said. Adrian's eyes widened. He looked at Sara and then back to Alice and couldn't see a shred of resemblance. Sara didn't look bothered by the fact that she was just called a mother.Adrian knew she looked well over the age to hav

Chapter: Chapter 42Third Person POVHazel blinked twice just to be sure she didn't imagine what she just saw; she looked where Adrian was and couldn't see him anymore, like he had just vanished, the same way that wolf had."Noah, Adrian is gone!" she shouted from where she stood. Noah looked in their direction and looked at where Adrian was. Immediately he backed away from Draven, keeping the distance between them. Draven seemed less violent, although he was being held back by something or someone invisible. Noah saw his chance and immediately melted into the shadow beside a tree, leaving Draven all by himself alone. She looked around for Noah amongst the trees but couldn't find him. She suddenly heard someone breathing raggedly in her room. She turned around and saw Noah sitting on the floor of her room, drenched in sweat and little bruises all over his body; his tattoos remained unchanged while the rest of him looked exhausted."Are you okay?" She asked, rushing towards Slayer Side. He simply nodde
