It was a perilous time when the fittest survived. Alphas were usurped and Packs were overthrown by the powerful. Vera was thrown into a conspiracy when her father, the beta of the Shifters Pack, was accused of treason. Her parents were killed and she was labelled a traitor's daughter. Everyone turned their backs against her. Her mate, the Alpha heir, rejected her and she was banished from the pack. Resolute to prove her parents' innocence, she escaped from her killers only to fall into the hands of a ruthless Alpha, Alpha Joash. She soon realized that he was her second chance mate but he was oblivious to it. In her state, she couldn't voice it out. Still at his mercy, she realized that all that she had believed were lies. She needed to save herself, prove herself and unknot her twisted fate.
View More"Don't show this innocent face to flatter boys" Sandy pushed her aside. Annie can tolerate everything. But when it comes to her character, she has no control over her emotions. How can this man just spat like this when he knew nothing about her?
"Don't tell me that you are flattered with my innocence" she mocked him with equal hatred in her voice. She can and she won't justify her actions to anyone at any cost. But this man needs to learn a lesson for sure.
"Come on. My taste is not this cheap and do see yourself in the mirror daily." Saying so he grabbed her cheeks making her flinch with his actions. He has no control over him today.
"Of course you are beautiful. And one can just beg on knees for you. But I am not those who fell for this beauty. I can see more than your beauty which is not at all pleasant for me" he tried to explain himself more than answering her. But his words surely hurt her. She can guess that she is the number one whore in his view. And she can ruin anyone living with her beauty. She felt disgusted to see herself in his eyes. How dare he insult her like this?
"You have everything. Money power status family everything. But I just wish you could have a mom. So that she might teach you to judge people properly" she taunted him staring straight into his eyes. And she is aware of his mood as his grip over her cheekshardensn for deep.
Sandy did not even want to give a reply to this little girl. He just pushed her with force making her stumble back. But she couldn't hold it as she fell to the centre, at last, gaining everyone's attention.
He was very pissed off right now. But he is not that much rude to hurt a girl physically. He can never stoop low. But this girl is testing his limit now and then. Closing his eyes in frustration, he stepped forward to help her to stand.
He forwards his hand towards her. That's when his eyes fell over another three hands already stretched out for her help. And his hand was a fourth one. He suddenly withdrew his hand not to create any scene.
Chandrasekhar came in front to see the girl who is lying on the floor. The shocking thing is his kids whom he had high hopes were offering their hands for her. He couldn't comprehend any reason why Arya, Sushanth and Kabir is hurt to see the girl in pain. Did he miss something ready?
Niharika broke the glass seeing how her son, Kabir is reacting to a mere girl. And not to mention Sushanth who is her son in law.
Arya looked at his friend Sandy as if he is not pleased with his actions. He felt to protect his New friend Annie.
Sushanth couldn't deny the fact that this girl still affects him even after so many years.
Kabir knew that this girl easily broke the hard walls of his heart and he doesn't want to let her go.
Annie wants to escape from everyone as the grumbling sound of her stomach gets deeper.
She fluttered her eyes twice. She always hated to have attention towards her. Now all the guests in the party hall, eyeing her as if she spoiled the party mood. She lowered her eyes, not able to look at those judging glares. That's when she could feel someone's hands had over her head. She doesn't know who that might be. But a small smile crept on her lips and she shifted her eyes upwards to see who that might be?. Her smile soon disappeared when she witnessed Sandy taking his hand back. Did he just pretend to help her? and instead, he is enjoying her pitiful state. Annie felt so disgusted towards this man. Her legs were paining like hell. She looked at her right side where already three person's hands were available to help her. She somehow felt happy thinking that no one is there like Sandy. But the confusion arose, whom to choose. she looked at Sushanth. She would never choose his hands ever again in her life. Then she shifted her vision to Arya. Of course, she has no option to deny this man's offer. But again her hatred for Sandy grew more. So she decided finally by grabbing Kabir's hands making everyone in the hall fume except Arya. She smiled in satisfaction when she could visualize Sandy's frustrated image. She surely touched the wrong nerve.Kabir pulled her and helped her to stand there. He slowly managed her to walk by holding her waist.
Sandy closed his fist till it changed to white. He gritted his teeth harder and harder. He couldn't see both walking side by side, holding each other like this. He is always a controlled person who can manage himself very well. No one could predict his actions except himself. But today seeing Annie, he forgot himself. He even forgot the surroundings.
He found himself grabbing Annie in no seconds and lifting her in one go making everyone gasp loudly. Numerous pictures were taken in that romantic pose of them. But Sandy cares least about it. As for Annie. She couldn't think anything other than her pain which is increasing inch by inch.
Chandrasekhar gasped loudly seeing his son Sandy in the competition too. Who is that girl and how she easily manages to enter his family without his knowledge. He mentally noted to have a check on that girl.
VeraWhen I came around, it was daytime. The sun seeped in through the blinds, lighting up the whole place.I looked at the strange room and bed then it all came back rushing. My mate saved the day and I was back in my pack. I was in the palace clinic. And I was treated.I didn't know how many days I had spent there, but I felt refreshed and energetic like never before.“You have come around,” Fred’s voice boomed and he walked in with a white lab coat and oversized glasses hanging on his nose “Nice to meet you. I am doctor Fred. Yuu sure have a long life!”“Get the hell out of here. Get my mate and get me some food. I am desperately hungry,” “Your wish is my command, Luna Vera,” he responded.The door flicked open and my mate walked in. Behind him were two maids. One with a try and a filled tea cup. The other was with a covered dish.Seeing them reminded me of my days of little beginnings. When I served tea in uniform and I was manipulated by forces that I didn't even recognise. It
It's been two days since we laid Silas to rest. I was just returning from his side when Derrick rushed towards me.“Your Highness!” Derrick yelled and fell before. He looked disgruntled and apprehensive.“Your Highness! It is lady Vera!” He trembled. I wanted to disregard him as usual but his theatrics somehow got to me so I gave him an audience.“What is it about her? Do you know where she is? If she wants to talk, she knows the palace.“I am sorry your Highness. I didn't let her Ladyship out of my sight since she left the battlefield… She was in critical condition and had nowhere to go. Targon had been with her all along…“Traitors!” I yelled angrily.“Why are you telling me this now? I guess you need my help…”“Her Highness’ condition has worsened. Her wounds were not well treated. They festered and have become life threatening.“You bastard! Why are you just telling me this now? Where is she!? Lead the way!” I thundered and they made my horse ready.Derrick led the way and I was s
JoashI declared myself as the interim Alpha King and all packs that were under my father's rule answered to me. It's been two weeks of renovations and realignment. I released most of my father's prisoners who were unlawfully detained.I also dissolved his chain of concubines that were locked up in his quarters. I set them all free and they went their own ways. I had the remnant of my people relocated to the palace while we began to renovate the moonlight pack that was demolished.I clenched my fists when I remembered what Silas said my father would have done if I had died and Vera lived. What abomination!?Everything was falling into place except Vera. I felt her connection as she tried to link me up on Steve's occasions but I shut her out of my head. Until she decides to return on her own accord I wasn't going to entertain any discussion with her. It was a special day. The day I had set aside to lay Silas' body to rest. I wanted him to lay beside Pete but at the same time it felt
VeraMy body seemed to be shutting down and the closest place for me to hide was the Shifters pack. This time, I didn't give a damn about my connection with the pack. I stumbled in through one of its openings and threw myself on the floor. Blood trickled down different cuts on my body and I felt feverish. To cap it up, I began to hear some rustling in the bush just behind me.Whoever it was, I didn't care. I just laid sprawled on the floor, waiting for whatever was coming. I had resisted all along and I was tired.I laid there but nothing happened. I must have heard wrongly, I said to myself and put my mind at ease.I was beginning to doze off when I heard the sound of swords. Someone was coming to attack me while the other must have shown you to defend meWho could that be? Targon? Did beta Derrick send someone after me? I let it all go as I was too weak to think. Slowly, my eyes closed up and I drifted into slumber while the sound of combat continued in the background until it was
DerrickThere in my hideout, I watched all that transpired in the King's camp. How Silas was killed and how Alpha Joash took the advantage of the distraction to get his father.Silas death was a painful one, but it wasn't my place to cast blame. It was proper to say that he sacrificed himself for the course that he believed in. He wanted his father's demise. When I saw the opening, I fired a twin arrow that took the King down. I couldn't let him slip out of our fingers again. We have had enough. Vera was caught up in the whole saga and I couldn't help but feel sympathy for her. The guilt in her eyes after she realized what she had done was heart rendering. I hope she forgives herself and that her mate won't hold it against her. It was an understandable misconception.After the cruel King took his last breath, I and the two other men who were with me burst into the camp. We dealt mercilessly with the soldiers who were planning to strike back after their King's unexpected death.They
Joash A twin arrow flew past me and landed on my father's back. I recognised them immediately. They were arrows from my men. Derrick! I muttered and didn't bother to find him.I looked behind me and my gaze settled on Vera. With a cold glare in her eyes, she threw another dart. I tried to deflect it, but I missed. I stood there and watched helplessly as the poisoned dart flew past my father's arm, cutting through it.“Aha….” Father groaned and tumbled to the ground with Silas’ body still hanging in his arms. He turned over his shoulders and looked at me. A proud laughter escaped his lips with blood sipping out by the sides“ We are not different! You used me against my son and my son against me. I will haunt…”“I call you Father,” I said, swallowing hard.“I'm not your father! You bastard! A son can never kill his father!” He continued to blabber but I had regained myself. I picked up his sword and slashed him on the neck. Silas’ body tumbled out of his arms as he held his neck a
