Daphne's POVWith a sigh, I stirred and was hit with the ray of sunshine dancing into the room.I shit my eyes rightly before slightly opening them to adjust to the room's brightness.It took a while for me to get familiar with my surroundings. Slowly, the events that took place the night before filled my mind and a chuckle escaped my lips.Sleepy Ray was so damn sexy, caring and different… I remembered greedily wanting more of the Ray I had seen and hoped that it wasn't just a dream.“Glad to see you had something to smile about upon waking up” I heard someone groggily say, causing me to jerk upon realizing that I wasn't the only one present in the room.Ray stood with a tray in his hands, watching me with an amused look on his face.“I don't think I appreciate being teased so early in the morning” I whined, causing him to laugh softly and sit down beside me.“Early morning, you say?” He teased, putting the tray down.“Good to know your morning starts by 2pm baby girl”, I turned brig

Daphne’s POVThe triplets tried their best not to pretend not to be present…it was almost as though they were trying to lessen the eyes waiting for me to speak.As I opened my mouth, despite my urge to talk…nothing came out.“I got this” I whispered to myself but I could feel my spirit dampen as reality hit me.I couldn’t and if by any chance I messed this up, it would make things harder for the triplets than it already is.“What do you want to tell them?” I heard Rex ask me through the link and I sighed before meeting his eyes.“What I feel as a fellow woman like them”.“Then do, show them who is Luna” he replied and I suddenly found my voice.I didn’t want to bore them with long talk but rather, the plan was to share what I felt as a woman to them and so I did.When I was done talking,I let out a sigh and met their eyes, silence loomed over us for a while before one of them slowly began clapping and soon there was an uproar of applause.The smiles I saw on their faces while they cla
Daphne POVAs I ran towards the face approaching our pack mansion, the weight of the world lifted off my shoulders. I was no longer scared of being rejected, his face was as warm as ever, the moment I was close, his arms encircled me in a warm embrace. I could feel his heartbeat as I tightened my arms around him."You are the most stubborn child I ever had!" he laughed and I responded, "I am just a true reflection of you and your only child in case you've forgotten"There was a subtle look of admiration in his eyes and that gave me smile across my face. He seemed like a proud father."You got that right, now it's time for us to talk" he said, walking towards the pack house. The journey was ...serene, my father was sharing the news that had filled his days during my absence, it was like nothing had changed except that I was no longer naïve. He spoke of wars, betrayals and how he had handled everything, and I could not stop smiling. He was an Alpha indeed, strong and reliable. I remem
Daphne's POVMy heart thumped hard with every step I took into the hall under their watching eyes.The feeling that I had just stepped into a boiling pot of oil made me shiver in fright.Regardless of what was about to happen, it couldn't be any worse than the whipping I had received last night for not returning to my quarters on time.Their judgy eyes stuck to my skin and followed my every move. I was just entering and had already announced my unfortunate self to everyone present.Today was the Caddel's Triplet's homecoming after six years and the night they would all pick a mate ahead of the coronation coming up a month from now.I didn’t know how to feel about all of this, and no matter how I tried to convince myself that all was okay, I knew it wasn't.My mind just wasn't at rest, despite being so happy that I was finally invited to an event for the first time and one as important as this.The faces of everyone here spelled out their thoughts, I could sense their emotions and see
I stumbled into my cabin, tears streaming down my face as I slammed the door shut behind me. This was supposed to be my place of solace, the one place where I could go to escape the chaos of the outside world. But now, even here, I can't escape the pain of rejection.I collapsed into my bed, burying my face in my pillow as I let out a cry of pain. My heart was shattered beyond repair and I wondered if I was ever going to get through this.How could they have done this to me? How could they have rejected me, after all that we'd been through together as kids?Rory, Rex, and Ray had been my childhood friends but they turned their backs on me like everyone else after I lost my parents and they were accused of a crime they didn't commit. Who would plead their cause and fight for their innocence?I most definitely can't because no one would want to hear me out. To them I'd always be the daughter of traitors.The Caddel triplets and I had grown up together, shared everything together, and pr
I kept moving in the darkness for as long as I could remember. I had no record of how long I've been here or how much love I was going to be here but I had to get out of here. I couldn't stay here anymore.The actions that led me here are vague in my memory, I can only remember one thing at the moment, the Caddel triplets, rejected me and humiliated me in front of everyone at the ball. All other things were blurry in my head.I collapsed on the floor tired and frustrated. It was too dark in here and I couldn't see anything. I was supposed to get out of here? Was anyone aware that I was missing?"I doubt it. None of them cared about me so they wouldn't obviously notice my absence."There is light at the end of the tunnel," I heard my mother say, causing hope to surge through my veins."Mom!" I called out but I got no response. I decided to go after the voice, walking in the darkness.I stumbled through the darkness, my hands outstretched in front of me. Although, I couldn't remember ho
Daphne's POV“Ivory!” I heard a voice call out in a sing-song voice, making me freeze until I realized who she was calling Ivory… I was now Ivory Rodriguez, Daughter of the most powerful Alpha alive.“Rise and shine, sweetheart, the Alpha sent breakfast.” I heard someone say, making me stir on the bed but I laid still…The lady called out once more, but I paid no heed to her, breakfast was the least of my problems right now.I wanted to leave this place before they realized I'm not Ivory, I am Daphne and reality had just dawned on me.It was definitely a dream, I wasn't rejected by the Caddel Triplets, then assaulted by them before being hit by a car and then died before waking up as Ivory Rodriguez.Stuffs like that happen only in movies and fantasy books, no doubt I'd open my eyes to see things where they ought to be.I could feel my heart thumping as the lady left me alone in the room.When are they going to ask me out of the hospital because I'm pretty certain that I don't belong h
