登入YARA's pov"Are you going to drive, mom?" Jeremiah asked, his tone incredulous as we made our way out of the house.I shook my head."Aunty Beth hired us a cab, he'll be here any minute.""Oh, that makes sense. Because I was wondering how you were going to drive in your condition." He said, seemingly much more relaxed as we waited for the car.Right then, I wondered how he would take it when he realized that I wasn't as blind as everyone thought.Well, soon enough, I was going to find out. A couple of minutes later, the cab pulled up, and the driver called out our names. "Yara? Jeremiah?""That's right." Jeremiah called back, and reached for my hand. I squeezed his hand affectionately, and after casting one nervous look at the pack house, I got into the back of the cab beside Jeremiah.An hour later, we arrived at Beth's house and watched as Beth rushed toward the car to happily receive us."They're here!" she squealed and helped us out of the car. She gently ruffled Jeremiah's hair,
DANIEL's povWith everything that had been going on lately, I'd nearly forgotten that I had cubs that I needed to care for.So in the days that followed, at noon time, while everywhere was quiet I decided to go pick Jeremiah up from school. Yara was resting and couldn't see anyway."Alpha Daniel!" Jeremiah's teacher greeted me when she saw me and looked a bit puzzled as well. "Are you here to pick up Jeremiah?"I nodded at her question and looked around for the boy, but he was nowhere in sight."I don't see him though, where is he?" I asked, slightly irritated."Oh, he is probably playing outside. Let me go fetch him." She rose, walked out the door and I followed impatiently behind her. I had hoped this would be a quick trip."I'm surprised his mother didn't come pick him up today. Where is she, by the way?” “I mean, I know things have been awful lately, I’m not trying to pry or anything. I was only just asking about the Luna.”I paused in my tracks and she turned to look at me like
YARA's povI smiled at Beth's offer. To be honest, nothing seemed as beautiful as escaping the madness and chaos of my present life than to travel far away with my best friend and her child.But…There was still so much to be done. Still people who still needed to be punished."It's a wonderful idea, Beth…But I can't leave just yet." I said softly, and heard Beth sigh in exasperation."But why? Judy already got what she deserved…my husband too. Why can't we go ahead and try to be happy now?""Beth, right now, there is nothing more I want than for you to be perfectly and wholly happy. I want to be happy too, but I doubt I can be truly happy while Daniel is out here leaving his best life." I held the phone to my ear and reduced the tone of my voice."Right now, he's grieving Judy. I know he's trying to hide it, but I can see it in his eyes and demeanor. He probably wishes I was the one who died and not her.""Plus, He and Beth made my child's life a living hell, I can't fully leave unt
BETH's POVAnyone who saw me would think I was mad, with the way I rushed back to the house to get my daughter. I knew my husband was on the run, and I had no idea when he'd be back, or if he would even consider coming home to take our daughter with him.But that man was the least of my problems. I just wanted to get my daughter and get the hell out of there.I was just a few minutes away from the house, when I got a message from Beth telling me that my husband was dead.Maybe it was wrong, but I felt a great surge of gratitude from that news and typed back, [Good riddance to bad rubbish, my friend.]Then I put my phone away and drew closer to the house, my heart still heavy because my daughter was still there. The gates were wide ajar, like whoever had opened them had left in a hurry and had not cared to close them up again. Probably the doing of that madman I called a husband.Ignoring the gates, I rushed to the front of the house, and used the keys I still had. But even when the
DANIEL's povI asked for some of my men to take care of Judy's body.Although I longed to hold her one last time, and care for her body myself, I couldn't particularly do that with Yara close to me. She would definitely suspect my unusual show of devotion, and that would only lead to more problems than I wanted to deal with.So I let the men handle her, and watched as they carefully wrapped her up and put her in the back seat of one of the men's cars."My subordinates will take Judy's body to the morgue." I said quietly to Yara, all the while forcing myself to keep the grief I felt from being evident in my voice. "In the meantime, why don't I take you home. It's been a long day and I bet you're already tired."Yara nodded slowly, and I reached for her hand, looped it through mine and led her to the car.My behavior was definitely commendable. Here I was, playing the dutiful husband, while I felt like I was dying on the inside from the loss of the woman I actually loved.As I drove Yar
YARA's pov"She's struggling so much, Yara." Daniel said quietly, I swear he actually put one foot in front of him like he wanted to take a step forward. But he just paused. "Whatever she has to say to you must be really important…"I fixed my eyes on Judy right then. Cold and calculated.She actually opened her mouth to speak, and I held my breath for a moment. But no words formed out of her mouth, and a couple of seconds later, her hands fell limply at her side.Daniel let out a long sigh, and backtracked his outstretched foot."She's dead now." He said quietly.Good. I thought to myself. She was dead, and she took the truth about my sight right with her. Perfect.But it had really been a close call, and for a moment there, I could have sworn I could hear Judy's malicious thoughts and intent. Even while she was dying, ratting me out was her greatest wish.What a b*tch.I’m well aware that one was never meant to speak ill of those who had gone off to the other side. But Judy was so
The Author’s PerspectiveYara froze as the headlights bore down on her body, and in the final second, Judy slammed on the brakes right in front of her.Judy got out of the car with a slow, steady look on her face, as if she had not just scared Yara half to death.Yara was still standing by the road
Yara’s PovThe hot water burned sharply against my skin, and I let out a startled cry as I stumbled back.Daniel immediately stepped forward. “Yara, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to splash you.”I pressed my lips together and cradled my hand, forcing my breathing to stay uneven but controlled. “It’s fin
Yara’s PovI stood there and watched Judy cry, her voice trembled as she reached for Kennedy’s hand. “Kennedy, please. We’re sisters. Have you really forgotten everything we went through together? We used to rely on each other. Don’t treat me like this.”“Sisters?” Kennedy repeated with a sneer. “N
Yara’s PovI zoomed in on the surveillance footage, adjusting the screen slowly as I tried to make sense of what I was seeing. At first, nothing stood out. The angle was poor, and whatever Judy had noticed earlier still escaped me.Then the audio picked up.“Where did you get those?” Judy’s voice c
