We are here.

Sabrina.

" I will come," I answered, raw bitterness cropping my voice. I didn't even wait for him to respond before I ended the call.

No matter how much I hated going back there, I had to, at least, for that locket.

The flight from Greenland Pack, the place that had been my home for the last four years, to Shadow Wall Pack, was long and nerve-wracking, it took approximately ten hours. Yes, ten hours. Back then, when I left Shadow Wall Pack, that was how desperately I wanted to put a distance between me and the people who hurt me, people who broke me, and the place which stopped being my home.

And for the four years that I had been away, looking back, I couldn't help but marvel at the person that I had become. Greenland Pack had been kind to me. Under the strict Alpha's training, I had become stronger, both physically and mentally. In Greenland Pack, there were mandatory exercises to strengthen both your body and harden your resilience. Back then, when I had left Shadow Wall Pack, after Rhys' betrayal, I didn't know where I was going. All I knew was that I needed to disappear and I did exactly that.

I had used all my savings to book my flight to the furthest pack around and when I reached the borders of the Greenland Pack, I had camped outside their outer gate for three days, stubbornly waiting for their Alpha to see me.

Well, I guess he was moved by my stubbornness because after three days, he finally granted me an audience and after listening to my story, he only granted me temporary residence with mandatory training because in his opinion, I needed to become stronger, so that no one would ever bully me again.

Well, back then, it had all seemed pointless but now, as I looked at my plane ticket, a cold smirk tacked at the corners of my lips. I guess tables were about to turn, then.

' I guess it's time for payback, Sabrina. ' At the back of my mind, my wolf's excited voice cut through, edged with sheer hatred and I just nodded in agreement.

My wolf's name was Ava. She was sweet and kind, but with a fierce temper. When she loved a person, she did so wholeheartedly, and now that it was her turn to hate, I could already foresee a chaotic future for my enemies.

If Amery invited me to her wedding, thinking of making a fool out of me, wanting to prove to everyone how unworthy I was of Rhys, then she was in for a shock.

I was no longer the same girl they used to walk all over. Sabrina Fords? That pitiful girl? Abandoned by her father, betrayed by her best friend and fiancée? That was no longer me.

Unlike four years ago, when the twenty-one-year-old me ran away, the twenty-five-year-old me was a beast. I was a warrior at Greenland Pack, unlike before, when I couldn't shift, I could now shift into my wolf and she was strong and massive, almost like an Alpha wolf.

I no longer sat at the mercy of others, waiting to be loved. I loved myself first, and that was enough.

As for my father, who chose Sabrina over me, who chose his new wife over me, I no longer needed him. I was no longer that fourteen-year-old girl who used to wait the whole night for him to read her bedtime story, only for him to dismiss her, telling her to go to sleep, that she was too big for a bedtime story.

His love? She no longer needed it.

As for Amery? Of course, I was going to make sure that she lived in a hell ten times worse than what she put my wolf and me through before.

"I guess you are leaving us, Sabrina. We will miss you." Luna Maya's voice shook as she spoke. I had linked them, informing them of my intention to leave for Shadow Wall and within no time, they were already in my house.

" I am only leaving for a few weeks. After 'celebrating ' the wedding, there are a few things that I will need to take care of before coming back. " I wore a cunning smile as I reassured her, in my mind, already curating a hell for my enemies.

" Remember what I have taught you, Sabrina. Never give anyone a chance to put you down. Never allow anyone to hurt you, not again. " There was a chilling glaze in Alpha Green's eyes as he reminded, the ruthlessness in his tone, scary and amusing in equal measures.

He seemed scary, but trust me, he was a loving person. For the four years that I had been in his pack, I had been able to see a gentle side to him. He was like a big brother, tough and soft at the same time.

I might not have noticed it, but now that it was time to say goodbye, I was emotional. Alpha Green and Luna Maya had become more than just temporary hosts to me. They were my family, my mentors. I was going to miss them, to miss the people who had sheltered the broken me, transforming me into a sharp blade, one of the strongest warriors in their vast pack. And for their kindness, I was forever going to be grateful to them.

" And your company? I can keep an eye while you are away." Just before I could ask, Luna Maya suggested, and I couldn't be more grateful.

Yes. From a twenty-one-year-old who had only thought of others, putting her dreams on hold, waiting for the Luna title, I was now a CEO. I owned my own company, a company that had recently been making waves in the werewolf kingdom.

Aside from training as a warrior, when I joined Greenland Pack, I also enrolled in college, daring to pursue my true passion, something that I hadn't thought was ever going to happen, especially in this lifetime.

I had always been passionate when it came to perfumes and scents and after their betrayal, I dared to dream again, pursuing my true passion, and all it took was two years. Two years of juggling between being a warrior and studying and after graduation, I used my salary as a warrior to start my company, Rina Dream Scents.

Two years into it and it was already the talk in the werewolf kingdom.

" Actually, I was about to ask. Thank you for volunteering. In that case, I will leave Rina Dream Scents in your able hands, Luna Maya " I added, smiling coyly and she shot me a helpless look. At that point, we could be considered more like sisters than just friends.

" So, have you booked your flight yet?" Always so serious, Alpha Green asked.

" Yes. I had my assistant book it. Clearly, there will be no sleep for me tonight. The wedding is tomorrow, after all." The bitterness in my voice was so obvious that the ever-so-serious Alpha Green cracked a smile.

Almost everyone in the pack was aware of my relationship with sleep. They said that I loved my sleep more than my own life. Maybe they were right.

" Don't bother. Luna Maya and I will fly you there. Our private jet is free and not to say, faster." He added, in his signature all-business tone.

" Thank you for being more than just hosts to me. Thank you for being my family. " I was so touched that my voice shook as I spoke. Flying in the Alpha's private jet meant convenience. I could get there faster, and most importantly, with the luxurious private sections, I would be able to catch my sweet sleep. That was the real deal.

" We are now a family. You don't need to thank us. Just pack what you need, we will link you soon." With that, they left and thus, the mental battle began. The next two hours were spent with be deliberating between what to pack and what not to.

*******

" Sabrina, wake up, we are here. " My sweet sleep was cut short by Luna Maya's amused voice.

I was back to Shadow Wall Pack.

Amery, Rhys, here I come...
