CHAPTER TWENTY SIX

last update Last Updated: 2025-04-28 02:04:10

I take a quick look at myself in the mirror, and once I’m happy with my appearance, I head out. I make my way to the Pack house, which is quieter than usual. I can hear raised voices coming from his study, so I quietly tiptoe over.

“Shut up!” he slams his hand on the table, startling me even though I’m outside. I can’t help but wonder who is being yelled at.

“One simple task: keep watch over her, and you fail.”

“Alpha, we should be grateful she’s not dead,” a familiar voice says, but I can’t quite place it.

“Then where is she!?” The room goes silent.

“Here I am,” I whisper to myself.

“Alpha, I think we should let them search for now. If she’s still not found after…” He bangs the table again, and I can’t help but chuckle.

“It’s only a pity; I can’t laugh any louder than this,” I think as I continue to eavesdrop.

"She has to be found!!" he shouts

“Alpha, I’m sorry,” the voice says.

“Who is this idiot? He has the dumbest ideas, and the dumbest mouth” I mutter under my breath.

    BRENTON'S POVAs I walk down the hallway, I run into Phoenix, and we exchange a fist bump. I notice some purple marks on his neck and chuckle, thinking about the fuss his sister will make. I’ve been so caught up in Pack matters that I forgot to remind the omegas to keep an eye on his plate. I was also allergic to carbs at his age. I realize he’s having an allergic reaction. Too much starch and sugar keeps him hyperactive; he won’t be able to fall asleep and let Angelique help him. He needs to sleep to heal. I find myself standing at the door of someone I’d rather not see. Just as I’m about to turn back, I remember the scene I’ll have to face. But then a vision of Phoenix and Angelique flashes in my mind, and I can’t bear to see them in pain, so I knock twice. A tired-looking figure appears when she opens the door, and I let out a sigh. Every time I see her, she seems to be fading away. I look away before she notices the concern in my eyes and step back, glancing down. “Hi,” I fi

    CAROL'S POVIt has been four years since my brother, the beta, and the Pack members abandoned me here to perish, but I have learned to endure everything, including the harsh winter mornings. This cottage had no windows, so I gathered wood to create makeshift ones, doing everything I could to make this place feel like home. I crawled out of bed, even on days I felt as if I were dying. There were moments when the thought of becoming a rogue crossed my mind, and times when I contemplated ending my life. And yet death still didn't want welcome me.But here I am today, standing in front of the one person I’ve been observing from afar for the past few years—the source of my daily pain due to his intimacy with others. I despise him, yet now that he is right in front of me, looking so perfect, I find myself questioning whether I truly hate him. His handsome face resembled a Greek sculpture, with deep features and an irresistible slender figure. He was like other men, yet distinctly differen

    ANGELIQUE'S POVAs I enter Phoenix's room, I can't shake the feeling that someone else is in the house. I tuck him into bed and then go to my own room, where I find him lying on my bed with his shoes still on. I open my mouth to say something, but the words escape me. I sit down next to him, folding my legs and facing him. "Good evening, Alpha," I say. He looks at me and sighs. "Whenever I'm around you, all my worries seem to vanish. I was concerned about Phoenix, so I thought coming here would ease my mind," he replies. I smile at him. "So that gives you the right to sit on my bed with your dirty shoes?" He looks away, mumbling something under his breath. I grab a pillow and toss it at him. "I'm too tired to argue today," I say with a frown. "Why?" I ask, not that I really care, but if I want to win Bane over to my side instead of against me, I need to pay attention to every little detail.

    Promises are made and kept but some were just meant to be broken. I vowed to Phoenix that I wouldn't be impulsive at school because being impulsive always lands me in nothing but trouble.However, the moron who hit my car pissed me off, I couldn't act like I was okay with what he did. "Please sis let it go we'll walk on foot," Phoenix said while also trying to stop me from going to cause a scene there, but I wasn't having any of that carp. This one is thinking with his toes. I wouldn't do everything I wanted to do without my car."Who did this to my car?" I bawled."I did," a husky voice said from behind me, it was deep yet still sexy. The kind of deep voice that is so very easy to fall in love with, that auditory caramel.My subconscious told me to turn and without blinking I did, one for the fact that I wanted to see who demolished my car and two because I wanted to see the possessor of the attractive voice I just heard.I turned. And my jaw dropped. I blinked twice, just to confirm

    The past is what you went through to be who are, it's what paved you to be who you are. The past is what you were not what you are, not who you are. The past doesn't define you. That's why people say that the present and the future are important and not the past.But I believe the past is what's crucial, new memories can always be created but old memories can never be expunged. You live on with the memories, good or bad, they live within you. You make space for them.Dark or bright. Happy or sad the past stays with you. You can't forget the past it's impossible to, but you make peace with the past. And carry it wherever go.My past is, was, and will always be painful. I carried the pain with me like a mosquito sucks blood from our bodies, it sucked and sucked onto my soul until I made harmony with the fact that the only thing I was destined to, was pain.Over the years heartache became my mother and the physical pain became my father, the day I realized that those two things were my p

    Emotions ran through my body like the water runs in the sea. Anger was fuming inside me and hatred rooting from within me. “When you’re done whining, tell me so we can start working” Working? My job was to be his maid. A personal one at that.“What works,” I asked making my way toward him.“ I’m meeting with people from the council” he stated.What’s that got to do with me? I wondered but still listened.“I want them to feel at home while they’re here” So I should be their maid too. That was simple.“ It’s the least you can do after the destruction you’ve caused in my life”I stared at him with my eyebrows raised.“ Don’t give me that look, I turned my phone off because it’s bombarding with notifications and messages, do you want the headlines “Famous Ruthless Alpha Bane Gets Ridiculed By A Rogue”Argh, that news will be ancient history tomorrow.

    ANGELIQUE'S POV**ANGELIQUE'S FLASHBACK**It was an extremely cold winter, and their foster parents had left Angelique and her brother Phoenix on their own. Without sufficient warm clothing, she gathered all the blankets they had, tucked her little brother in, and climbed in next to him. The warmth was soothing, ensuring they wouldn't catch a cold.As she began to drift off to sleep, she heard an elderly voice calling her name. "Angelique!" She thought it was just a dream, but the voice called again, "Angelique!" Sitting up, she half-shouted, "What?""It is a privilege to have you as my grandchild and to guide you," the voice said, leaving her somewhat puzzled."I don’t have grandparents; I’m adopted," she replied."I know, dear, but I am your biological grandmother," the voice clarified."Where are you?" she asked boldly."I’m dead; I exist in your mind now," the voice answered."Why have you come into my mind?""The spirits have chosen you. You must be well-trained from a young

    ANGELIQUE'S POVI hurried inside Bane's study, I knew I was up for unnecessary interrogation.I wipe away imaginary tears, sniff, and lift my head. "You injured ten of my men," He says with a frown.Should I be smiling at them? They wanted to fight me too. "I don’t understand. Was I supposed to dance with them?" I raise my voice at him. Brenton and the trainer chuckle. "No, you were meant to fight back; you left most of them half-dead." I nod. "Clearly, you need to fire this one; he's useless. What has he been teaching them if ten of them were taken down by a female werewolf?" I ask."That I'm a werewolf in name only, without a wolf like theirs; all they know how to do is growl. Is that all you teach them?" I question the trainer. "That's not the main issue. The issue is, you hurt them, and I already have families calling. Luckily, they can’t sue me." I roll my eyes. It’s his problem that he’s getting calls. "How is that my concern? Just tell me what matters to me, like the pric

    The first light of day filtered through the curtains, casting a warm golden hue in the room, and I realized it was morning. I had shared a bed with a man named William, but nothing happened between us; now Bane is the second man, and still, nothing has occurred. I stretch my arm and turn to his side, noticing a note on his pillow. I pick it up and read, "Be in the Pack house Hall at 9 o'clock." Glancing at the clock, I see I have only fifteen minutes to reach the Hall. I quickly remove my clothes and dash to the bathroom for a five-minute shower before stepping out. I grab my clothes and leave without making the bed. Once outside, I get into my car, start the engine, and drive off. In seven minutes, I park in front of the Hall. Just as I’m about to open the door, I remember that I’m still in my underwear. I quickly put on a t-shirt and mini skirt, then grab my shoes, black pantyhose, and leather jacket before hurrying to the entrance.As I enter, I hear laughter, whispers, singing,

    BRENTON'S POVIn my world, family holds immense power; your family's name can open doors and provide protection for you. Growing up, I longed for that kind of privilege. When my wolf alerted me that the girl I initially disliked might be important to our realm, I began to investigate her. I thought this could finally give me a sense of belonging and help fill the emptiness I've felt for years. However, I didn't anticipate how broken she would be.My phone ringing pulls me from my thoughts. "Speak," I answer, coldly."Mr. Banecroft has some paperwork to sign. He mentioned sending his assistant over, but..." "Send it to the Pack house. I'll return it after signing," I reply before hanging up. The fact that they can't locate him indicates he's going through another emotional episode. This works to my advantage; I should find him, hand this paper to him then head to Candy. I track his phone and, sure enough, he's at his mansion. I go to the Pack house to grab the papers and drive ov

    ANGELIQUE'S POVAfter spending some time with my new found cousin, I decided to call the Pack house to see if Bane had arrived. To my surprise, he had, and he left to his house but didn’t bother to inform me that he wouldn’t be picking me up anymore. So here I am, making my way to his house on my own.His place feels more like a morgue than a home; the Pack house is much better. I already regret visiting him. The gate is left open, so I park my car next to his and head inside.As I walk in, the silence is so intense you could hear a pin drop. I think he intended to reflect his cold, dark personality in this house. The walls are navy blue, the furniture is navy blue, and the curtains are gray—nothing here suggests life.“Bane!?” I call out, but there’s no response.“I know you’re here, where are you?” I ask.“Why are you trespassing?” he replies from behind me, nearly giving me a heart attack.“I’m not trespassing; I was told you were here. So I am supposed to just follow you around l
