Rejected Me Once, Never Fool Me Twiceย ย ย Chapter 10
I was sent to the dungeon in the basement of the pack house.I remained silent the entire way there.I can't believe my own brother would say those things to me...after I told him the truth.I am dragged into the Solstice Dungeon, one of the cruelest dungeons in the pack.Only rogues and vampires are brought here....for torture.I am thrown inside by Zack."The Alpha will be here. Don't move," he sneers before walking away, locking the door behind him.This place is unbearably hot. There is only one tiny window, barely large enough to let in any air.Silver chains glisten with wolfsbane in the dim light.A few seconds later, the door bursts open, and Zander steps inside.His eyes glow bright yellow....I know it's Atlas trying to take control."You need to let me go, Zander. I have no business being here. My life, my careerโฆ everything is at stake," I tell him.He chuckles darkly."Oh, you aren't going anywhere, little mate. You're not allowed to leave me again," his voice is deep, dang

A month LaterSerene's P.O.VI give up.I can feel life leaving my body.I have been tortured for four weeksโfour long, agonizing weeks. I have barely survived without food or water.My skin clings to my bones; you can literally see my skeleton.Each time I lose weight, the chains shrink to adjust to my size. I think a spell was cast on them.Every day, after being tortured and after my desperate pleas for freedom, the pack doctor comes to check on me. He cleans my wounds and injects something into my body to speed up the healing process.The moment I recover, a new set of female warriors come to play with me.Not once did I see Zander. Not once did I see my mother or father.But Kaden comes.Not to torture me.Not to mock me.He just stands guard.At first, I begged him to release meโto at least bring me food or water. But he ignored my existence.So, after a week, I stopped asking.Now, as I feel the last traces of life slipping away, I am both happy and sad.Happy, because at least

Light. Darkness. Light. Darkness. Light. Darkness.That is all I have been seeing. I think I may have died and become stuck between the living and the dead.I donโt want to be alive anymore. I may be a fighter, but now I am so tired of fighting.My body is exhausted. I just want to leave. Nobody will miss meโmaybe only Mom and Marcus because they are the only family I have left.Thereโs that beeping sound again, and then the light comes.My eyelids feel heavy, but I fight to open them. After many tries, I finally manage to do so.I see a pair of brown eyes, followed by the famous British nose of Marcus.โOh, darling! Thank God youโre finally awake. I thought Iโd lose you.โ Mama engulfs me in a tight hug.โHi, Mom,โ I whisper, my throat dry.Sensing this, Marcus hands me a bottle of water, which I gulp down in one go.โWhatโฆ what happened?โ I ask.โThe doctor said you almost died from dehydration and starvation. Iโm so sorry I couldnโt protect you, my daughter,โ Mama cries, ca

Each time I have a panic attack, she is there to comfort me, always proving that we are oneโno matter what.Marcus has been my anchor, but unfortunately, he had to leave. He had business to take care of, and people were starting to spread rumors about our disappearance.He also has a girlfriend and a life apart from me, but heโll be backโmaybe not soon, but after the heat dies down.We text everyday tho. Kiara has been hopeful with managing the sales online.And honestly, I wanted him to leave.

After so many months, Ria will finally get some fresh air.Nobody is around, so I sneak out through the window. Slowly, I open it and climb out, holding onto the frame.

The first person I see when I open my eyes is Zander.He is hovering over me, his gaze unreadable, filled with an unknown emotion."What are you doing? Why are you here? Where is my mom?" I ask, my voice hoarse."Tell me why you had a panic attack when I touched you?" he counters."I asked you a question first. Where is my mom?" I press sternly."Gone to the grocery store. Now answer my question. I won't repeat myself. Why did you have a panic attack?" His voice darkens with every word."None of your business. I don't have to explain myself to you. You're neither my husband nor my father Go back to your wife!" I snap.He growls."Don't fuck with me, Serene. I am your mate, and I need to know everything about you. You will tell me-one way or another. Do you understand me?"I roll my eyes.He stands from the bed, looking down at me."There is going to be a dinner party at the pack house. All the Alphas and Lunas will be attending. You will be there-as my mate. Don't get too happy becaus

People whisper.They stare.Even after the Alphas and Betas have broken up the fight, their eyes remain fixed on meโas if I was the one on the floor, bleeding.Zander has been dragged into an empty room.Mark? Taken to the pack clinic.Yeah, the injuries are that bad. Zander didnโt just fight himโhe brutalized him. He kept slamming Markโs head against the floor like a madman.A maid approaches, her face laced with concern. "Are you okay, Luna?"Luna.I hate that word."Yeahโฆ yeah, Iโm fine." My voice is barely above a whisper. "Have you seen my mom?""Yes, Luna. Sheโs with the Alpha, along with your โ"I cut her off with a tight-lipped smile. "Thank you."Without another word, I turn and walk toward the room where Zander was taken.I brace myself for the worst as I push open the door.---"What the fuck are you doing here?

The next morning, I was home, sketching some designs after a quick call with Marcus.Heโs planning to return, but with the gala and the upcoming runway show, he canโt make it as soon as he wants. Still, he promises to come down the moment heโs free. I am hoping it is soon.I had just finished designing my latest ballerina skort for my ballet girls when I heard a giggle from upstairs.I froze, my chalk hovering over the fabric, but I decided not to let curiosity get the best of me.Shaking it off, I pulled out some material and started cutting, until the giggles came again.This time, they were louder, followed by a loud crash. Then a sharp cry of pain. Then... wailing.My heart jumped. Beating really fast.I dropped everything and ran upstairs, ignoring Zanderโs warning that this part of the house was off-limits.When I reached the hallway, I followed the sound of soft whimpers to a door .....a grayish door with small pink designs.This must be the daughter's room.I knocked. โHello?

"And who are you to tell me what to do?" the creepy dude says."Your worst nightmare if you don't fuck away from her!" Zander growls again."What will you do if I don't, huh? Come on, big boy?" the creepy man smirks.Zander grits his teeth, and before the creepy man can utter another word, he is on the floor with a bleeding nose."Zander!" I shriek and try my best to pull him away from the creepy man, but my drunk state doesn't allow me to. I slip and almost fall on my ass.Zander moves on top of him and growls angrily.Oh no.Atlas is out."Luna, you have to do something, or else Alpha will kill him," Faye says through the mind link.I immediately ran to his side and, using the strength of Averia, managed to grab him and make him look into my eyes.His eyes are red, showing that Atlas now has full control."Calm down, Atlas. Look at me. I am here. Please, let's get out of here," I plead softly.His eyes soften, and with one last growl, he stands up from the creepy man and drags me out

Gem drove like an absolute maniac down the windy and dusty road. We hadnโt told my parents the full details yet, but the truth was , Gem was taking us way past the pack borders into a different territory.The Silver Wings Forest.It was rumored to be a mystical forest filled with all kinds of supernaturals. It was said to protect wolves and witches from vampires, which made it one of the safest places outside the pack grounds. Still, there was something eerie about it,like you didnโt really go there unless you had a reason.The car was practically shaking from the bass of โTap Outโ by the Young Money gang, with Gem and Karin yelling the lyrics like they were at a concert. Honestly, those two were a match made in chaos,they matched each other's energy.Xana was passed out next to me, somehow managing to stay asleep despite all the yelling. But knowing her, she wouldnโt be asleep for much longer.โฆ...About twenty minutes later,after I had heard the same song on repeat ten times,the c

Heading down for breakfast, Iโm greeted by several omegas who work in the house as maids. Each of them pauses to wish me a happy birthday with warm smiles and soft voices.In our pack, omegas are treated with the utmost respect,and my father makes sure of that. He always says that without them, this pack wouldnโt run as smoothly as it does. And heโs right. Theyโre the backbone of our home, our sanctuary.When I finally reach the dining hall, my eyes widen at the sight before me. The long wooden table is decorated with fresh flowers and plates piled high with a variety of breakfast dishes. Everything smells heavenly."Come, come! I made your favorites," Mom sings, pointing toward the stuffed strawberry croissants sitting prettily on a white platter."Aww, Mom, thank you," I say, grinning as I grab two pieces and place them on my plate.I pick up my tablet while my phone buzzes furiously beside me, practically overheating from all the birthday messages pouring in. Not from friends,well,

Winter's POV"Happy Birthday, little angel."A soft, melodic voice pulls me from sleep, and I blink my eyes open to see my mother standing at the foot of my bed, a warm smile on her face. In her hands, she holds a cake, the soft glow of eighteen flickering candles illuminating the early morning dimness of my room.Behind her, my dad stands with his arms crossed over his chest, looking half-asleep, his hair disheveled as if he was dragged out of bed against his will.I wouldnโt be surprised if he was."Happy Birthday, little angel. Make a wish," my mother coos, stepping closer with the cake.I let out a sigh, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. "You two do realize Iโm eighteen now, right? Too old for this?" I deadpan, giving them a look.My mom pouts dramatically. "But youโre still our little girl."I groan and turn to my dad for help. "Dad? Please tell her to stop. Aria and Asher are only fifteen.

The grand hall of the pakhouse was alive with warmth and celebration. Today marked fifteen years since Ruine and I had joined our lives together, and there was no better way to celebrate than with the people we loved mostโour family. The space was beautifully decorated with golden and silver lights, symbolizing the strength and endurance of our bond.At the center of it all stood Ruine, his sharp golden eyes softened by joy as he laughed with Cole and Nikolai, both of whom had grown into strong, confident men. My heart swelled as I looked around the room. Our tripletsnow nineteenโwere standing together, sharing a quiet moment of laughter. They were no longer the mischievous children who used to run through the halls causing chaos but were on the cusp of full adulthood, strong and independent.Lilacs was beside me, holding a glass of wine as she watched her five children chase after my grandkids. She had married Ruineโs Beta and best friend, a decision that had made their bond as a fam

The summer sun kissed the rolling vineyards of Bordeaux as we arrived at our private villa in France. The air smelled of lavender and fresh bread, a scent that instantly made me feel at home. It had been years since our last big family vacation, and now that the kids were teenagers, this trip was bound to be different. Gone were the days of carrying them around on our hips; now, we were dealing with independent, opinionated young adults who still had that mischievous spark in their eyes."This place is sick!" Cole exclaimed, dropping his bag the second we stepped inside. He was already looking around for the best room, and I had no doubt he and Nikolai would argue over it.Kiara, on the other hand, was more composed. "It's beautiful," she murmured, running her fingers over the intricate wood carvings on the staircase. "I can't wait to see the gardens."Ruine chuckled behind me. "You two get your pick of roomsโjust not the master. Thatโs ours."Cole groaned while Nikolai smirked. "First

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting an amber glow over the modernized expanse of Gold Sun Pack. The packโs main hall buzzed with energy, wolves of all ranks moving through the grand space as they discussed recent events. Tonight was specialโnot just because the pack had grown stronger, but because it marked two pivotal moments in the lives of Casma and Ruineโs sons, Cole and Nikolai.Cole had always been the dreamer among the triplets, the one who found beauty in everything. But tonight, something shifted within him. It had started the moment he locked eyes with the mysterious stranger standing near the training grounds. She was unlike any wolf he had ever seenโbecause she wasnโt one at all. The unmistakable scent of magic clung to her, mixing with the crisp night air, making the hair on the back of his neck stand on end.A witch.The realization should have made him step back, should have triggered the instincts every werewolf was born with. But instead, he stood rooted to the s

It was supposed to be a normal day. The morning had started with the usual chaos of raising three teenagers. Nikolai and Cole were arguing over who had taken the last protein bar, and Kiara had been in her room, unusually quiet. Iโd noticed she skipped breakfast, which was unlike her. Usually, she was the one dragging her brothers to the table, making sure they ate something before training with Ruine.The moment I heard a timid knock on my office door, I knew something was wrong. When I opened it, Kiara stood there, shifting uncomfortably from one foot to the other. Her usually confident expression was hesitant, and her hazel eyes darted everywhere except at me."Momโฆ can we talk?" she asked in a voice that was barely above a whisper.I immediately stepped aside, pulling her into the room and closing the door behind her. "Of course, sweetheart. Whatโs wrong?"She hesitated for a moment before finally sighing and looking up at me. "I think somethingโs wrong with me."Panic shot through

The day had finally arrived.Fourteen years ago, I had endured the most painful yet rewarding experience of my lifeโbringing Kiara, Nikolai, and Cole into this world. Now, as I stood outside in the open training grounds of the Gold Sun Pack, watching my children prepare for their first shift, I felt a strange mixture of pride, excitement, and unease. This was a monumental moment, a rite of passage for every werewolf, and yet I couldnโt shake the maternal instinct that wanted to shield them from the inevitable pain.The sky was painted in deep hues of orange and pink as the sun dipped below the horizon. Ruine stood beside me, his Alpha presence as commanding as ever, though his features softened when he looked at our children. He had spent the last year preparing them for this momentโensuring they were mentally and physically ready to shift. Shifting for the first time wasnโt just a transformation; it was a rebirth.โYouโre ready,โ Ruine said firmly, his deep voice resonating across the

The morning started like any otherโchaotic yet filled with love. The triplets, now eleven years old, were in the middle of their werewolf changes, which meant heightened senses, mood swings, and an insatiable hunger that rivaled a full-grown wolf. Living in the Gold Sun Pack had its advantagesโmodern facilities, excellent schools, and a strong support systemโbut nothing quite prepared me for raising three preteens going through their transformation simultaneously.I sighed as I entered the kitchen, already knowing what awaited me. Nikolai and Cole were engaged in a playful scuffle near the breakfast bar, while Kiara sat at the table, scowling at the milk in her cereal as if it had personally offended her.โBoys, do not break anything,โ I warned, walking past them to pour myself a much-needed cup of coffee.โThey started it!โ Kiara huffed, pushing her bowl away. โI can hear them chewing, and itโs disgusting.โI took a deep breath. Enhanced hearing was one of the earliest signs of their
