ElaineThe Roma Aesthetics Marketing Department was usually full of energy and noise, but now it had become eerily quiet. The room, once buzzing with the sounds of typing, printers, and conversations, was now lifeless. Desks that were once cluttered with papers and coffee cups were now empty. The bright lights above seemed to have lost their glow, highlighting the emptiness of the space.The mood was heavy and tense. What used to be a lively place for teamwork and ideas now felt cold and abandoned. The silence was thick, broken only by the occasional ticking of the clock on the wall and the faint sounds of typing and hushed conversations. This place had suddenly become a total stranger, all because of the failure of Bride Essentials last night. What was even more shocking was discovering who was behind it and her complete lack of remorse.No one could believe what had happened earlier. Everyone was at a loss for words. Of all people, Marie was the last person we would have suspected of
TristanI sat in my office, twirling a pen between my fingers, my mind spinning with thoughts of last night. Elaine was all I could think about, and it felt like I couldn’t escape her from my mind. The way she moved with such confidence and grace was like meeting a stranger. I was stunned. After five years of marriage, I had never seen this side of her. Not once. Not ever. It was as if Elaine was completely unrecognizable in my eyes, and it bothered me. Elaine had always been so quiet and plain. She was a housewife, content to stay at home while I managed everything outside. I never imagined she had any talents beyond keeping the house in order. But last night, she was someone else entirely. Poised, smart, and completely in control. The way she interacted with the guests at Roma Aesthetics was like she had done it a thousand times before. I could hardly believe it was her first corporate job. In fact, no one would ever believe that she used to be a fucking omega who knew nothing but c
TristanAs soon as I heard Elaine was coming, my heart started pounding in my chest. What the hell?! Why am I nervous at the prospect of seeing her?Fuck! What is wrong with me?I clenched my fists, forcing myself to stay composed. I couldn’t let the secretary see how much Elaine’s visit was throwing me off balance. Taking a deep breath, I loosened my tie slightly, hoping it would ease the tension I felt creeping up my neck.“Please, ask Elaine to wait in the conference room,” I said, my voice surprisingly steady despite the chaos inside me. “She’ll be more comfortable there.”Before the secretary could even respond, I heard a familiar voice coming from right behind her. “No need for any unnecessary gestures. It won’t be long anyway.”My head snapped up, and there she was—Elaine Scott—standing there with that piercing gaze of hers, one that seemed to see right through me. I forced a smile, but it felt tight and unnatural. Damn this woman! What spell did she cast on me to make those pie
MeganThe glass of champagne was cool in my hand, with tiny bubbles rising to the surface. I leaned back into the soft cushions, feeling them sink slightly under me. The bottle of champagne sat on the table as I relaxed on the sofa.My assistant knelt at my feet. Her fingers expertly massaged away the tension while I sipped on the sparkling drink. The bubbles tickled my nose, adding to the warmth of my satisfaction. She looked up at me with curious eyes and asked, “Miss Megan, you seem in a good mood today. What's the occasion?”I couldn’t help but smirk. “The rat that’s been irritating me is finally put in its place,” I said with such satisfaction. I felt a deep sense of relief, knowing that the rat that had been terrorizing my life had been pushed back to the sewage where she belonged. Elaine Scott and all those who chose to give her a chance. My assistant’s nose wrinkled in disgust. “Good. That vile thing deserved it.”“Indeed,” I replied, my voice laced with triumph. I was about
TristanI smirked and moved to a nearby chair, settling in as I watched Megan's face contort with that all-too-familiar expression. I didn’t even need to threaten her further. Her expression told me everything I needed to know.Panic flickered in her eyes, and though she tried to hide it, I saw right through her. Her hands trembled slightly, her shoulders stiffened, and her breathing grew rapid. She bit her lip, her fingers twitching nervously at her sides. Megan looked like a trapped animal with her fear tightening its grip on her.I knew these signs too well. The words I’d just spoken had hit their mark, and now the silence between us was thick with tension.Well, good. I want her to fear me. I want her to fear what was coming to her. “What?” I asked slowly, my voice dripping with sarcasm. “Are you going to say something, or what?”She froze, her body beginning to shake. Tears filled her eyes, and I could see her struggling to hold back a breakdown. Pathetic. She was falling apart r
TristanI paused as Megan's words hung in the air. Suddenly, something stirred inside me. A memory came back and I knew it was triggered by what she said.FlashbackIt was after our engagement was announced. The grand hall was full of people I didn’t like. They all congratulated us as if we were a perfect couple. My mother, who always cared about appearances, had pushed Elaine and me outside. She wanted us to have a "sweet moment" together under the moonlight. I didn’t want to be there. I didn’t want to be anywhere near Elaine, but I had to play my part.At least for now, until I found the best opportunity how to get back at Elaine for what she did with Shawn. “You know what, Tristan? I feel like I am Cinderella now.”Her voice was bright and cheerful, and it grated on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard. How could she be so clueless and so oblivious to the hate I felt? I didn’t even bother to hide my disinterest in her. Yes, I agreed to the wedding yet I never accepted her to be my
ElaineAfter the heartbreaking confrontation, I rushed outside. I couldn’t stand to be near the man who had done nothing but hurt me. I spotted a taxi and quickly wiped away the tears still clinging to my cheeks. I waved the cab down, and the driver pulled over.Inside the cab, Tristan’s words replayed in my mind. I stared blankly out the window, letting the tears flow freely again. The driver glanced at me occasionally through the rearview mirror, possibly concerned but unsure how to comfort a stranger in such distress.In the end, he just let me cry and focused on the road ahead.All I could think about was Tristan’s lies and the elaborate scheme Megan and he had orchestrated. Honestly, I was used to their behavior, but this time it was different. It wasn’t just me they were bullying but the entire staff of Roma Aesthetics and the families who depended on it.How could they do that without feeling even an ounce of guilt?My voice trembled with resentment. I wished I could slap Trista
I was done. I was so freaking done!I couldn’t hold it in anymore. All the emotions I’d been bottling up surged to the surface, and I didn’t care who was in front of me. I could only bear so much, and I couldn’t hold these feelings back any longer.My heart felt like it had shattered into pieces. Tears streamed down my face, but my frustration burned even stronger. I slammed the pile of folders I was holding onto my desk, and the noise echoed through the office.Nancy looked at me, shocked by my reaction.“Isn’t this what you wanted? To see me quit?”I locked eyes with her with such intensity. I was done listening to her nonsense. I’d reached a point where I was tired of pleasing her or being intimidated by her anymore. All I could focus on was the frustration that had been building up and the deep disappointment I felt in myself for letting everyone down.Nancy shot back with equal intensity. “Yes, I want you to quit, but not like this!”I didn’t back down. The she-wolf I had once fea
ElaineAt last, after so many crazy things had happened in our lives, the scene I had always dreamed of day and night was finally happening right before my eyes.I stood at the end of the aisle wearing the most elegant white wedding dress full of sparkling stones in it. Everyone stood up on their chairs as I made my entrance.Nancy, whom I never thought would be a forever friend, was standing with her cute dress. She suited the role of the maid of honor. She deserved to be part of the happiest day of my life. After the things we’d been through, I wanted her to witness this joyous moment. Along with Mr. Smith and his wife, who were holding my arms lovingly, walking me down the aisle.“You look lovely,” he whispered and smiled.“Trevor is such a lucky guy. I wish you the best,” Mrs. Smith said.“Thank you,” I uttered. Even if the Moon Goddess hadn’t let me experience growing up with my parents, I was happy she had sent them just in time in my life and served as my second parents.A fami
ElaineThe usual smiles of the people of Wolfsilver were back. Slowly, everything turned to the way it should be.I walked around checking the aftermath of the war. The pack was in ruins. The damage was beyond imagination. A lot of families lost their homes. Most of the things that built Wolfsilver were lost during the war. But the good thing is, the people’s faces lit up. They were full of life and joy after the defeat of Travis. There’s no more terror in their hearts. Fear was replaced with joy. The nightmare was finally over. And along with everyone, we all could start again.I was on my way to the infirmary. I brought some fruits and snacks to hand over to the warriors who risked their lives for our cause. The wounded warriors welcomed me with smiles.Most of them were recovering greatly. Of course, we suffered from casualties too. It couldn’t be avoided. But thanks to the prosperity of this great pack, everyone’s needs were given.I was on my way to visit my friends to the infirm
ElaineEverything happened so fast.Rogues rushed at us. They were hungry for our blood. The wolves fighting on our side howled and a few seconds later, the first drop of blood spilled the ground. I barely ducked as a rogue’s claws swiped at my face. Good thing Jared was at my side in a second and knocked the attacker away."Stay close!" Jared shouted.I gripped my dagger tighter while my hands were shaking. I wasn't a strong fighter like Jared or Elsa. But I had to help somehow.Elsa fought like a hurricane. Her blades were covered in blood and yet i didn’t see her slow down for even a second. Mike, Ruther and the rest of the warriors from Silver Rose Pack moved as if they take war for breakfast.Tristan was fighting Travis up ahead. The two of them clashed. Travis was bigger and stronger. But Tristan was faster. He dodged Travis' attacks and hit him with quick, sharp blows."You’re getting slow, Travis!" Tristan shouted with a bloody smile."You’ll die slow!" Travis growled back a
Elaine“What the hell are you doing here?” I shouted, the sight of her face after all this time lighting a fire inside me.All the hardships she caused came crashing back into my mind. My blood boiled. Heat rose in my chest. The anger I felt begged me to lash out. I clenched my fists. I was ready to attack her anytime.Jared gently grabbed my arm and shook his head.I understood immediately. If I lost control now, I could ruin everything. And worse, it could lead us straight into unnecessary bloodshed.Of course, I wouldn’t want that. I forced myself to stay still. But I didn't take my eyes off Megan. I tried to be calm, but seeing her smug face was making it hard to do so. She noticed. Of course, she did. Like before, she relished seeing me powerless and furious. That evil smirk of hers was enough to make me want to rip it off her face.Megan grabbed Travis’s face suddenly and kissed him. Passionately. Shamelessly. Right in front of everyone. The kiss dragged on for a whole painful
ElaineWe set foot outside the Silver Rose Pack. It had been a long time since we ventured beyond the safety of our haven. Today, we would take back what was ours. With the strength of our newly forged alliances, we would throw Travis out of Wolfsilver."Keep your pace! We're almost at the pack borders!" Tristan shouted to everyone.The army was led by Tristan and Elsa, running at the frontline, ready to take down anything that blocked our way. Jared stayed close beside Tristan, while Ruther and Mike supported Elsa on the flanks."You better be alive, Trevor. We’re on our way," Tristan said suddenly.His concern tightened something inside my chest. I couldn't help but ache for Trevor, imagining what hardships he might be enduring at the hands of Travis.My mind locked onto our mission. The battle ahead would test us all. But I'd face anything—anything—just to hold the love of my life again."Hang on a little more, Trevor," I whispered into the wind, praying somehow the words would rea
TristanThat night, Elsa and the others decided we would leave early in the morning. Some of the warriors in the army were fired up, eager to avenge Alpha Earl. I overheard them talking about how it had been a long time since they felt their blood burn with this much passion. It lifted my spirits to know morale was strong. It would definitely help us win the war.Of course, a few warriors were more cautious. Word had spread about my defeat and the fall of Wolfsilver. They took Travis seriously, preparing themselves for the worst. Travis wasn’t someone you could underestimate.After a short meeting, I headed to the training ground alone. I needed to let off some steam and prepare myself for the rematch against Travis.I stayed up all night, throwing punches, imagining his movements from our last battle. Memorizing them. Preparing to counter them."I see you’re in good shape," Callum said in my head."I have to be," I replied. "I’ve got an ass to kick back home. It’s now or never, Callu
Tristan“How long should we wait here?!” I exclaimed in frustration, hitting the door with my bare fist. “We can’t just stand here doing nothing!”It had been a week since Travis captured my brother. A full week, and still no progress on Trevor’s rescue. The cabin was thick with the heavy stench of frustration and fear. Travis was too unpredictable to guess his next move, and I couldn’t bear the thought of regretting not doing something after everything Trevor had sacrificed for all of us. Including me.Ruther just sat there, his disappointment mirroring mine. Meanwhile, I could tell from Mike’s clenched jaw that he was trying his best to hold his emotions together. The whole Silver Rose Pack knew what Trevor had done for us. Even if they didn’t show it the same way I did, I knew they were ready to fight for him.“Calm down, Alpha. Emotions won’t get us anywhere,” Jared said cautiously.“Calm down?!” I snapped, turning on him. “You’ve been saying that all week! How can I calm down whe
TrevorMy eyes widened at the unexpected scene. I held my breath as I watched Megan being lovingly escorted by Travis."My love... What brings you here?" Travis kissed her hand and smiled."I got bored in my quarters," Megan said, crossing her arms as she stood beside Travis’ throne. "I didn’t expect to meet an old acquaintance."I scoffed, feeling disgusted just by the thought."In your wildest dreams."Megan walked towards Travis. When she reached him, she casually sat on his lap."Do you miss me already?" Travis whispered. He buried his face into her neck."Is there any reason why I shouldn’t miss you?" she teased.Without shame, Travis kissed her neck in front of everyone. Megan, devoured by his lips, smirked at me like she believed she'd climbed back into power. "I’m sure you’re not blind to see the result of your petty revenge," I said while clenching my fists. "Tell me, Megan, was it worth it?""Shut the hell up!" Megan screamed. "Don’t pretend you know nothing about my suffer
TrevorWolfsilver was beyond anything I had ever imagined.And not in a good way.My heart sank. Everything was in chaos. The moment I stepped onto the pack’s territory, I had to fight the overwhelming urge to stand up for the oppressed wolves around me."Please stop. I'm begging you," a woman whimpered. One of the rogues laughed cruelly before slapping the poor omega across the face."You're here to serve us! Do you want to die?" he shouted.Another rogue grabbed at her and tore her clothes. While a third pinned her to the ground.“No! Please…Don’t—”Travis' men were worse than animals. They were monsters. Soulless. Heartless. Driven by nothing but their twisted desires.It was broad daylight, and yet no one stopped them.The omega cried silently, humiliated and broken, as the rogues violated her.The warriors stood by and did nothing. They turned their eyes away and let hell swallow one of their own.This... this was normal here now.For the rogues, this was life.And Travis was th
