CHAPTER 16Dagger Amanda's P.O.V“Let me in, you fool!” I shouted at the guard with my fists clenched at my sides. My voice echoed around the iron gates of the Moonlight Pack.This was more like my second home and being treated in such a manner felt humiliating. It made my blood boil with rage.“I’m prepared for anything! Come what may!” My voice cracked with rage and frustration.The guard didn’t even shake. His expression was cold and detached. “You have no access here in the Moonlight Pack,” he barked.“No access?” I laughed bitterly. “I was once welcomed here with open arms. Where I was treated like a queen, and now I had no access? What a joke!I bonded with Stanley. He promised to marry me, with or without his stupid little mate!“You know who I am, I don't need to explain my status to you, I'll say this just once, let me in!” I commanded.The guard stood firm, his hands folded behind his back like a statue.“You’re a damn fool!” I spat with my voice shaking. I felt humiliated,
CHAPTER 15STANLEYS P.O.VEverything had occurred so fast. “Where are you Ashley?” I questioned myself repeatedly.It had been two weeks since I last saw Ashley, two weeks since I last saw her. I had searched everywhere for her but still, she was no place to be found.The fact that she has rejected me, again was something I couldn't stand, but then, she is my mate after all. I was humiliated and rejected at the same time, and that, publicly.“Not again!” I cried out, I was involuntarily morphing into my wolf form, continuously and without my consent and consciousness. I could not understand my wolf anymore.If there was someone that could help me in the state I was, it was Sky. But then, We'd been on a rough part lately, regardless, she was my sister. I had a very strong feeling that Sky knew were Ashley was.And if she knew my predicament, she could tell me. My wolf immediately morphed back to my human form, I changed to new clothes and headed to my sister's room. While I got to th
CHAPTER 14Ashley's POV I jerked up from the bed drenched in my own sweat, my sudden movement made me screech in pain. The loud ring in my head gave me unbearable pain. It felt like my brain was going to burst out at any moment.I fell to my knees gripping my head tightly, it felt like a thousand ants were gnawing on my skin. But all this pain was nothing compared to the pain I felt in my head.My eyes became bloodshot, my throat felt itchy and dry, I had this burning sensation in my neck. I shut my eyes trying to wade off the pain. What was happening to me? My hands landed on the floor , as a means of support to push my failing body. The strange design on the floor gave me a comfortable feel. The atmosphere was filled with a relaxed ambiance.This was completely strange, I swayed my hands feeling the cool, smooth and silky floor. It had a way of assuaging the headache I felt earlier, I could perceive the scent; It felt like the dew on a mountain covered with frost. Where was I
13SkyWalking into the pack house I could feel the tension in the atmosphere. "Sky Carter, come here right now!" I heard my mom's voice echoing in anger. I wasn't afraid I had prepared for it. "How dare you!" She said, looking at me with anger. I foreigned ignorance, "What happened? Why are you so angry?” I approached her,She scoffed, “You dare to act innocent?" She squealed. My eyes widened in confusion, “What are you talking about? Mom, just go straight to the point, tell me what happened!" "How dare you betray your own blood, how dare you take sides with a total stranger?” She rebuked.A total stranger? What an odd thing to say. Ashley had lived with us for years —over decades, how can she still call her a stranger? I bit my lips as a reminder to keep my lips sealed. I shouldn't let my emotions get the best of me. This could put Ashley in more trouble. “What stranger?" I retorted, my face was laced with confusion. “Why are you speaking in parables? Did someone break into the h
12Stanley They approached, bowing their heads in respect. Sky was usually a nuisance, but reviewing my activities, I was certain we hadn't met today. Her inquisitive nature often irritated me, but today was different. Something significant had occurred, and she was nowhere to be found."Where is the princess?" I asked, my voice firm but laced with concern."She has been out of the palace since morning," one of the maids replied, her voice trembling slightly.Hearing this, I dismissed them immediately. My mom stayed silent, with a warm gaze she seemed lost in her own thoughts. “Where could she have gone this early morning?" She muttered. "Do you think she's behind Ashley's escape?" I asked, turning to meet my mom's gaze. Her eyes were filled with worry, and she clenched her fist."I'm not sure," she said, her voice measured. "I was on my way to the guard room last night when I heard a loud noise. Your sister appeared out of nowhere, and I got distracted. I returned to my chambers, u
Chapter 11Stanley.Ashley just got her wolf, someone must have helped her out of the cell. “Who unlocked the cell?”I asked, glaring at the useless guards who had been on duty yesterday. They kept dumbass faces, acting like they had no idea what I was talking about. I had no business dealing with today's guards. I had to dismiss them,”Sound the alarm!" I command. With hefty heavy footsteps, they left the room immediately. Here I was thinking the proud peacock would be as humble as a snail but reality had other plans I had no idea of. She meant those words when she chose being a rogue? I scoffed at the thought, she had no family. She had the guts to run away, why did she choose to do it now? Why did she stay all these years? The guards stood there mute, their actions made my blood boil. They look amongst themselves as if searching for answers. “I won't repeat myself!" I shrieked. Their silence was getting on my nerves, they were responsible for her and they just let her escape? T
