Liza's POV This creepy creature did not disappoint in any way.As expected, he came running the moment he learned of his lover's condition.“That was so much easier than I thought,” I screamed joyfully.“I know right… but do you think he's going to let it slide?” Amma and questions are inseparable.And the fact that the questions are always at the right moment is fascinating.My journey home is with so much gratitude to Chris.He came, and he did it at the right time. But why follow me though? His business should be Alex and how to get Zoe healed.He kept scheming behind me, and I hissed for the hundredth time.“Why do you keep following me?” I voiced out when I couldn't take it anymore.“You don't have to pretend. I know it's you, Jerry.”Only then did he turn back to face me. Such display of unrequited cowardice.“I guess I need no introduction, as you already know my identity.” He sounded so awfully proud.“Ohhh… you mean the one that reveals you to be in a shady relationship wit
Jerry's POV When my man at Spring Pack told me about Zoe's injury, I didn't think too much of it.“She'll heal with time,” those were my words.“I'm afraid not.” His response came in so heartless and cold.“What's that supposed to mean? She has a strong wolf, this is nothing.” I was more than certain this was not a big deal.But, I can't believe I was wrong to stupor.“I told you how the healer was the one who helped her after she gave birth.” He took me back, and I hate that.I grabbed him by the neck, pinned him to the wall and was about to throw him out for speaking about matters I didn't ask him.“Please… I'm only saying this because Luna Zoe has a condition.” Condition? Blatant liar. A condition that I don't know about?“You're speaking without thinking now?” I growled and he pleaded desperately.“After she was healed, I decided to know why she needed the healer when she has a strong wolf.”Infuriated? Yes, I mean, I never asked him to carry out such an investigation.“She's di
Alex's POV How could I sit my a** down when 'a nobody' practically humiliated me in the presence of my members?“She wasn't at home around this time and seeing this and her wound? I'm pretty sure this is Luna Zoe.”Zara’s words pierced my heart. How could she do that?She's supposed to support me and not a stranger.“What does she have on Zara?” I must find out.If not that, why then would Zara just switch up on me?“Is someone restless or… wait, let me think…”This woman must be a witch. There are no two ways to do this.“Devising a new means to make sure there's no way out for me other than to be labeled a traitor?”Her voice irritated the hell out of me.“And do you think you should be in the face of a man who wants to label you a traitor?’” She didn't flinch, rather she moved closer and I couldn't place my hands on the courage she had.“If I were you, I'd keep my distance. Cause, you honestly have no idea how much I want to hurt you badly.” I warned her sternly, but she didn't
Liza's POV “You?” She looked around and was shocked to see me.“What do you mean by saying ‘you?’” she feigned ignorance.“Is this what I think it is?” I asked, looking at her with so much contempt.I scoffed at how she had the mind to want to hurt an innocent soul.I'm not surprised. She's done it before, of course, she could do it again.“What has that little soul done to you that you're doing this?” But rather than feel remorse? She scoffed back at me like it wasn't my business.Right… maybe, it wasn't my business, but still, I can't watch her do the same thing over and over again.“I hope you won't pass your boundaries just because I helped you during your trial.” She sent her message, clearly and concisely.I laughed at her foolishness. She should be glad I didn't recognize her the instant I came into this Pack.“Pass my boundaries? Who set the boundaries? Should we check who's overstepping boundaries?”She didn't say a word and the moment she was about to touch the child? I i
Derek's POV “I thought we've gotten past this.”“Of course, we have. You think I'm making this up?” I know how hard this is for him. “If you aren't ‘making it up’ like you claimed. Then what is this? What are you saying? Let it make sense to me.” Now, I blame myself for telling him what I found out the moment he got back from his trip.He's possibly stressed and needs a lot of time to recuperate.But the gravity of what I've found isn't what I can keep for long.Who else do I talk to about these things if not him?“Leo, you have to believe me.” I tried to sound as convincing as ever.He sat down and looked at me intently, “Derek, I'm trying. I'm trying to wrap my head around what you said to me. But how can I do that?”It sounds crazy. I get it a hundred percent. No one would believe me.“I know how it sounds, but I did my research, Leo. And this is what I've found.” I had to find a way to make him believe a bit in my words.“I'm sorry, but I think your research failed woefully thi
“Shall I be punished without a chance to say something for myself?” My voice came through the moment he went quiet.I turned to see everyone nodding their heads in agreement with what I had said.“Shall I be convicted without a trial?” And everyone echoed, “No!”Right here today, I'm writing a different history.“I have no idea how Luna is hurt.” I began and there emerged side talks and many hushed tones.“The only one I had come in contact with today who initiated a fight was a stranger.”“Liar! What do you mean by stranger?” Alex asked aggressively.“Yes. I was gradually walking home when someone strangely dressed attacked me and we got into a fight.”“So, my people, believe me when I say I have nothing to do with this. Except it was Luna who had dressed up in deceit and had attacked me.”A loud ‘ahhhh’ erupted from the crowd. Followed by murmurings and silent hisses.“Could it be Luna Zoe? All I ever did today was self-defense. Or when did self-defense become a crime?” My eyes me
