Alpha Jacob's POV.The pack members exchanged glances, unsure of what to believe. But I remained focused, my eyes fixed on the task at hand. "I must complete the banishing ritual," I said firmly. "It is my duty to protect the pack from danger, and your father is one."Samantha pleaded with me, but I continued the ritual, pouring all of my energy into the spell. Finally, as the last words left my lips, the bright light from my hand faded away. The pack members gasped in shock and horror, unable to comprehend what had just happened. But I knew that I had done what was necessary to restore order and justice to the pack.I turned to face my pack, my voice ringing out with the authority of the alpha. "Let it be known that justice has been served. Epsilon Emilio has been banished from our pack for his crimes. Let no one question my final say in this matter." With that said, my warriors dragged Emilio out of my presence to be left at the boundaries of the territory.There were murmurs of as
Bella's POV.A day later, Jacob surprised me with my mother's presence and I was happy to see her after a few days of her absence… it was the little things like this that made me appreciate him even more.I told Mother about my ordeal with Emilio and his banishment and how the pack was at uneasy days that followed."Sweetie, I love how you handled yourself at that moment, but I think I need to train you so that you can fully will your abilities at your will." She said with a serious voice."Okay, Mom," I responded without hesitation because I knew how powerful she was and her training me would not be a bad idea because I got to use it as an excuse to bond with her more. "So when can we start?" I asked with an inquisitive stare like that of a toddler wanting to spend more time with its mother.You can't blame me, I was deeply deprived of motherly love from a tender age. I let out a tight-lipped crimson smile."I have some free time today, so we can start right now." She answered back.
Alpha Zach's POV.Weeks later after Alexander's failed attempt to retrieve my Bella from that selfish bastard calling himself Alpha Jacob, I sat in my office, brushing my imaginary beard because I had received an unannounced visit from my arch nemesis's pack.With furrowed brows, I glanced at my visitor with a question mark. Do I trust her or continue falling at my plan to retrieve my true mate Bella? I sighed softly."I've been thinking about this for a while now," I said, "and I've come up with a plan that I think will work.""What do you have in mind?" Samantha asked, looking intrigued in her sexy lime green leather mini dress with matching high-heeled boots. She looked sexy but my wolf did not fancy her. She was just another crystal in sheep's clothing. I smirked. Like who unravels clubbing clothing in the morning? Anyway, that's none of my business."We need to lure Bella away from Alpha Jacob's territory, where she's heavily protected," I explained because every attempt I made w
Alpha Jacob POV.Waking up next to Bella was a beautiful sight every day. She was an early riser but today she slept in.Wow, what a view. She was facing me and I got the opportunity to study her… her captivating glowing face looked younger and peaceful in sleep. Her sexy plump succulent lips parted slightly, and her shiny brunette hair was an exquisite mess after a night filled with passion and sex.She was tempting to reach out and touch but like a small child, she looked delicate in her sleep and did not want to be disturbed…Let me go for my early morning patrol in the boundaries of the pack just to make sure there was no danger lurking around. With quiet swift movements, I got out of bed making sure not to wake up sleeping beauty and wore my joggers, sneakers and then grabbed my iPod on my way out and plugged my headphones in my ears… with an upbeat song playing, I start jogging slowly but making sure my razor focus eyes were scanning every inch of my territory.Shirtless and sw
Queen Zita's POVSeated on my magnificent throne at the bottom of the ocean in Pavlopetri city, I was surrounded by the six Nameless Elders, who are the most respected and powerful figures in the underwater kingdom. We were all gathered in a grand hall at the bottom of the ocean. They all bowed their unseen faces in their black cloaks which covered them from head to toe, that's if they ever had toes or fins.I composed my stern posture with a slight tight-lipped smile."Your Majesty, we have summoned you here today to discuss the matter of your daughter, Bella." The first Elder spoke his mind.I heaved a sigh while my smile vanished because I saw this coming after bringing my daughter here…sometimes these fucking fish behaved like humans, always gossiping about what they were not told about. I discreetly roll my eyes.With ease and calm, I gently bob my head. "Yes, I am aware. What would you like to know?""We would like to know why you have kept her existence a secret all these years
Crystal POV."Mom, I hate my life and I wish I was not mated to Alpha Zach." I declared because my life has been nothing but a horrific nightmare I wanted to wake up from. I sighed heavily tears prickling in the corner of my eyes.I sat quietly on my mother's stained sofas while I brushed my fingers on what seemed like a wine stain. Her house was always clean when Bella was around. I heaved a sigh with a quiver and then I caught a nauseating scent that lingered in the room that made me gag a little in my mouth. I swallowed while wondering when last she cleaned her home.But then again my mind wondered if Bella's second chance mate, Alpha Jacob treated her better than I was being treated by my seduced Alpha Zach.my life has been nothing but hell for the past few months I had lived in the mansion."Oh, be quiet, Crystal ." Diana's cold emotionless words brought me back to reality. I peeked at her with furrowed brows…why did she talk to me like that? I pulled a face while darting at her
Crystal POV.It was dusk and I had chosen to run to my mother and rant as a BBC reporter assigned to a war zone...What I saw was too gruesome and disturbing to keep to oneself."Mom, Alpha Zach has Bella, heavily drugged and bound by silver chains in one of the chambers at the mansion.""What? Crystal, do you know the consequences of what you are saying?" My mother asked with a frown. She then crossed her arms on her chest while she gave me a look that questioned my sanity.She was seated on the swing on her home's porch…I stopped pacing back and while I glanced at her with a serious quizzical gaze. How dare she question my statement like that??? Like what great reward would I get for lying about my mate and Alpha? I sighed heavily."Mother, are you going to listen to me or judge what I have to say about the Alpha?" I asked."Okay fine," she rolled her eyes and sighed softly. "Tell me what Alpha Zach did this time around." She said sarcastically.I peeked at Mom, with a raised eyebr
Alpha Zach's POV.I stood over the prone form of Bella, my prize. I had captured her so easily, using my superior strength and cunning to overpower her. Now she lay before me, drugged into a deep sleep.I put her in one of my many bedrooms and chained her with bronze and silver chains as instructed by my ally Beta Samantha.I smirked triumphantly as I pushed back tiny bits of her loose hair to the back of her ear. I looked at my prized possession with great satisfaction because, for the first time in months, I had my true mate right where I wanted her to be…under my roof and territory.My eyes fell on her plump succulent lips and my wolf wailed just for a small piece of them.Kiss her, rip her clothes off, and fuck her hard Alpha… I licked my lips slowly and seductively just in case she woke up and saw my sexy hot face…I gasped as I tried to control my dirty thoughts...As soon as we had gotten into my territory, I ordered my warriors to be on high alert because I knew Alpha Jacob wou
