Aaron’s Point of ViewThe truce had bought me time, but I had been waiting for the right moment to strike. Bennet had assured me he needed only a month to recover. That month had passed, and I expected him to be ready.I made my way to his house, but something was different this time—the door was open. I stepped inside, only to find him in a wretched state. He sat on the bed, frail and hollow-cheeked, looking as if he had been battling a severe illness.“How are you feeling?” I asked, my brows knitting together.Bennet barely lifted his head. He looked as though he was on his deathbed. This wasn’t what I needed. I needed strength, a capable ally—not someone who could barely hold himself together.“My old injury has worsened. I’m not in fighting condition,” he admitted, his voice weak and hoarse. His skeletal frame only emphasized his decline.I stepped further into the room, but the moment I did, a sharp, pungent smell hit my nose. The air reeked of bitter herbs and medicinal brews. I
Aaron’s Point of ViewLeaving Bennet’s house, I tightly gripped the two vials of magical potions in my pocket. With these in my possession, my plan was finally in motion.As soon as I returned to the Wouri River Pack, I sent a message to Lucy, instructing her to meet me in secret.We arranged to meet at a discreet restaurant near her university. When she arrived, she was heavily disguised—a mask and a thick scarf concealed most of her face, ensuring she wouldn’t be recognized. As she pulled the mask down, I immediately noticed her swollen, red-rimmed eyes. She looked completely drained, her face blank and lifeless.It was clear she had spent the night crying.“You look terrible,” I remarked casually, pouring myself a glass of wine.“It’s nothing. I just didn’t sleep well,” she muttered, avoiding my gaze.I didn’t bother to press her further. Instead, I reached into my coat pocket, pulled out the vial of aphrodisiac, and dangled it in front of her before setting it on the table.“Find
Lucy’s point of view:I left the restaurant, I went back to my university with the aphrodisiac that Aaron had given me safely in my pocket. Despite my nervousness and hesitations, I still gave in and called Rose."What is it? Lucy?" Rose’s voice was sleepy. It seemed that she and Jack had had sex until very late, so she was still in bed."You're not up yet? There is a new cafe in front of our university. Would you like to go with me? Are you free?" I did my best to sound as natural as possible.However, I was able to catch Rose’s hesitation on the phone."I'm OK." Fortunately, she eventually accepted."So I'll wait for you, okay? Come quickly!" I hung up. The nervousness in me grew even more.After that, I went to the cafe outside the university in advance. I ordered Rose's favourite coffee, then added the aphrodisiac mixed with Aaron’s blood in a hurry.The heat of the steaming coffee rose in the air before slowly disappearing. I could see snow outside through the window while waitin
Jack’s point of view:While I was busy taking care of the affairs of the Blue Lagoon pack, I suddenly received a call from Olivia. I asked her to keep an eye on Aaron and Lucy for me. It seemed that something had happened.I took the phone and went to the nearest window. Outside, there was pure white snow, which blurred the landscape in the distance."Jack, I sent someone to follow Aaron in secret earlier this afternoon. We found out that he had gone to a restaurant near Lucy’s University to meet her. The two seemed to be talking about something.""Has your subordinate heard what they said?” I didn't expect Aaron to act so quickly.“Unfortunately not. My subordinate did not dare to approach them, let Aaron know it. So he stood outside and listened to their conversation as best he could," Olivia explained in a whisper."I see. Thank you Olivia. Please continue to monitor them for me."After that, I hung up. I hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to call Rose to inform her. Lu
Jack’s Point of View“Alright, give me a second.” I wiped the corner of my mouth with a napkin, my mind swirling with suspicion. Standing up from my seat, I made my way toward Lucy, pretending to grab a fork.I had no intention of leaving. I just wanted to see what she was up to tonight.Reaching the door, I hesitated briefly before turning back. As expected, something was off. Inside the private dining room, Lucy was hurriedly pulling a small bottle of red liquid from her bag. Bent over my glass, she quickly poured its contents into my wine.“What did you just put in my drink?” My voice was sharp as I leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, staring her down.Lucy’s head snapped up, her face draining of color. Panic flickered in her eyes as she froze, her hand still gripping the bottle, trembling violently.“N-Nothing… I just—” She stammered, but it was clear she had no reasonable excuse.Without hesitation, I strode forward and snatched the bottle from her hand.“What the hell is
Jack’s Point of View“What else did you do for Aaron? Did you have a hand in Rose’s kidnapping?”I leaned back in my chair, crossing my legs, my gaze fixed on Lucy as I continued my questioning.I had always suspected her involvement, but without concrete evidence, I couldn’t act on mere intuition. Now, the truth was unraveling before me.Lucy knelt on the floor, her head bowed. The once-perfect makeup on her face was now smeared with tears, like a shattered mask revealing the ugliness hidden beneath.“I did help Aaron, but I thought he just wanted to reconcile with Rose,” she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. “He used to love her so much… I never imagined he would actually hurt her. Rose and I are friends. I would never intentionally harm her.”She raised her head slightly, meeting my eyes with a shameless sort of boldness, as if she truly believed she had done nothing wrong.“Aaron kidnapped Rose and threatened to kill her if the Blue Lagoon Pack didn’t surrender,” I state
Rose's point of view:I was in a long dream, in which there was an endless night filled with snow.Suddenly, I opened my eyes and the dream ended. My mind was in a daze. The light from the streetlights outside penetrated through the gaps of the curtains.Why was it so late? Wasn't I having a coffee with Lucy earlier? I jumped out of bed and walked to the window. Outside, the snow was slowly melting.A strange nausea seized me. When I saw the snow in front of me, the first thing that came to my mind was Aaron. For some reason, I felt a strong desire to share this point of view with him.When we were in the Maroon Hill Pack, we used to go skiing together. He was skilful and could pass without too much trouble between the snow and the woods.I went back to my bed and lay down there, closing my eyes. My mind was filled with thoughts about Aaron: his charming eyes, his well-defined figure and his wonderfully soft voice.The horrible and repulsive things he had done before seemed to be a va
Jack’s point of view:I went to Rose’s dormitory and knocked on the door, which was opened by Bianca. My sudden arrival shocked her."Jack? What are you doing here at such a late hour?""I came to see Rose. Is she awake?" When I entered the room, I expected Rosse to still be there. My eyes swept the room and I realised that there was no one else here except Bianca and me. Rose was no longer in the room."Where is Rose, Bianca?” I turned to look at her and asked her in a tense voice."She's fine. She woke up some time ago. An hour ago, she received a phone call and went out to meet a friend. But, she was behaving a little strangely, and she was pompome, as if she was preparing for a date," Bianca replied with a craving stuck between her teeth."I don't think she went to meet a friend." I took a few moments to think carefully.An hour had passed since Rose had left the dormitory. I walked to the window and noticed the cosmetics placed on the table that she had used. My mind thought back
Olivia’s point of view:"Ah! What waste! Why can't a woman be Alpha? Do you honestly think I'm so ignorant, Ben? That I don't know what happened? Please, it's as clear as the day! Jared tempted you to do that. I was on my guard against him all this time, but I didn't expect him to really use my own men!"I was completely furious. My body burned with the rage of a thousand suns.If a stranger was the one who kidnapped me today, it was acceptable. At worst, I would see it as a stroke of bad luck. But to say that the aggressor was none other than the former Beta of my own Wouri River Pack, I couldn't swallow the insult of my trusted subordinate stabbing me in the back, especially after being betrayed before."You're so old, your mind has become bad! I've already heard about Jared's plans for the Wouri River Pack. Do you really think he will let you be the Alpha of our pack? Ha! Dream, Ben! He just wants to conquer the Wouri River Pack and take everything for himself. He even proposed to
Olivia’s point of view:The first battle was to begin early the next morning. However, I already knew that my enemies would launch a sneaky attack. As such, I immediately gathered my army and prepared myself to fight to the end.The combined military strength of the enemy packs was lower than that of the Wouri River Pack. We had advanced weapons, while they were cruelly under-prepared. Maybe it was because they had underestimated the enemy. Whatever the reason, it worked to my advantage.In the darkness of the night, hundreds of green eyes appeared from the forest, shining like agate stones, The strange spectacle was accompanied by howling wolves that seemed to shake the air.The pale moonlight shone through the clouds while the enemy army appeared before us. A few violent gunshots broke the silence, indicating that the war had begun.The enemy's wolves threw themselves fiercely on us, but I did not order the Wouri River Pack army to turn into wolves to fight back. Instead, I ordered
Olivia’s point of view:When my subordinate came in and informed me that the Alpha of the Silver Mountain Pack had appeared unexpectedly, I immediately felt that something was wrong. I was about to order my men to prevent Leo from entering, but unfortunately, I was a little too late.Leo managed to break in despite everything, looking like a polite gentleman despite his rather aggressive actions. I would never have imagined that he would bring with him a real army into my pack without telling me in advance.It was like Leo was dumb, not knowing exactly how I had to refuse it. What should I say? I took a quick look at Jack and Rose, anxious, before hurriedly taking Leo out of the official house of the pack."Leo... I am really, really grateful for your consideration, but you can take back your army. Let me remind you that the WouriRiver Pack is not so weak. We don't desperately need help as soon as the war begins. We will be perfectly fine on our own and we will be able to defend ours
Rose’s point of view:When I woke up, the sun was shining in my eyes. Jack kissed my neck and jaw. He probably woke me up on purpose."Are you awake?" His voice was hoarsy after the explosive sex we had last night.He stroked my long hair and straightened up on his elbow to look at me. His chest was marked by the hickeys I gave him last night.The time I rub my eyes and get up, Jack was already out of bed and putting on his shirt and pants.The rumble of cars coming from outside had been a constant source of noise since dawn. Jack opened the curtain and glanced downstairs, his expression suddenly darkened.“Did something happen in the Wouri River Pack recently?”"I don't know. But Olivia didn't look very cheerful when we met. What's wrong?" I was confused. I wrapped the duvet around me and walked to the window to look downstairs.Rows of troops had gathered in front of the pack's official house. Not only here, but the streets of the Wouri River Pack were also crowded with armed soldie
Rose’s point of view:“Zoe will certainly make fun of us later.” I looked up timidly, my cheeks burning with embarrassment.I hadn't been so intimate with Jack for a long time. I was so eager that I was unable to control my inner desires.With sparkling eyes, Jack took me in his arms and let me sit on his lap. "She will not dare to make fun of us. I'm still her boss, unless she doesn't want to be paid.”With a sweet smile on my face, I tightened my arms around Jack.Rubbing the side of his face with my cheek, I inhaled his weak scent. Then I straightened up and examined it carefully. He still looked the same as before.When he lost his memory, he behaved much more coldly than now. Sometimes he looked like a complete stranger to me. I even thought I didn't know him anymore."What are you looking at?" Jack looked at me tenderly, grabbing my fingers. He looked at them carefully and kissed them."It's so good to be with you again." I let out an emotional sigh and kissed Jack’s cheeks.Jac
Jack’s point of view:When Alan woke up, he told us everything that had happened in tears.Bennet was cruel and ruthless and tried to kill all the wizards who opposed him in cold blood. Naturally, Alan didn't want to join Bennet and participate in such horrible murders. However, Bennet knew that his interests would be affected if Alan took sides with others. And so, Bennet chose to kill his biological brother to eliminate future problems."I thought he would show you pity since you are his brother. Bennet, this bastard.” Rose stroked Alan's hair to calm him down, feeling sorry for him. Then she clenched her teeth and whistled in an indignant tone: "I shouldn't have saved him in the past! Even though I had to break my promise, I shouldn't have saved a killer. Now things have happened. "None of us expected that, Rose. It's not your fault.” I sigh, patting Rose on the shoulder to comfort her.I didn't know what had happened before because of my memory loss. Judging by Rose’s expression
Rose’s point of view:Zoe had obtained information from her network of wizards according to which a group of wizards imprisoned by Bennet had escaped. Today, they were going to take revenge on him in a nearby place.Jaxk and I had travelled every nook and cranny of this place, but we found no trace or smell of a wizard.After night fell and visibility became almost zero in the forest, Jack and I finally decided to leave.As we came back on foot and crossed part of the forest, Cora's nose tingled with a familiar smell. It was the smell of Alan's body, accompanied by a slight smell of blood.“Jack, hold on. Cora just smelled Alan's smell. It should be somewhere nearby." I grabbed Jack's hand and began to follow the smell. We passed in front of several large pins and bushes.While I was looking for Alan, Jack suddenly stopped sharply. His eyes were focussed on a sunk bush as he said: "There seems to be something lying in the grass there.”He drove me to the place. As the smell of blood b
Bennet’s point of view:I ran in the direction I was coming from.Alan was just a child. He couldn't go far in such a short time.Indeed, I spotted a silhouette fleeing in the forest in front of me after searching for a while. I immediately used my ability to teleport to catch up with him.Alan was so terrified that he stumbled back when he saw me appear. I could understand that he was afraid and hated me now.My face was a mask of rage as I approached him with measured steps."It's not funny for you to test my limits over and over again. Alan, you'd better behave yourself."Then I grabbed his hand and started to walk to the farm.Alan tried to free himself from my grip and said in an innocent and furious voice.“Let go of me!”I tightened my grip on him and said with disdain: "Make your age. Come back docilely with me.""What you did is horrible. I won't help you anymore." Alan continued his desperate struggle as I pulled him forward. His shoes left long marks in the ground.I though
Bennet’s point of view:I bought a farm in the north to use as a temporary prison for wizards who resisted me. I couldn't kill them at the moment, since Alan was with me. Thus, I had no choice but to lock them in the farm to prevent their escape. For more security, I put a magic board around the farm.After Alan found out that I had killed someone, he gradually became depressed. He didn't want to go out with me and stayed locked in the farm all day.Initially, I was convinced that Alan did not have the courage to disobey me. But one night, I could feel that the magical network I had set up was slowly disappearing. Immediately, I got out of bed and ran to the farm. Someone had broken the magical network I used to imprison the wizards! All the wizards were busy rushing out of the farm, their cheers for their freedom echoing in the air. Before I could catch them, they disappeared right in front of me using the magic of teleportation.Alan was there, watching them run away with a smile on
