Maya's POV.

My wolf refused to keep me warm all through the chilly night.

My cell wasn't big. It was a space so small, if I stretched both my hands forward, the rest of my body wouldn't move, but in that small space, I felt like I was exposed to a million air conditioners fixed on my face.

Melissa was still mad at me.

She blamed me for everything. “If you had not said that to him in the first place, we wouldn't be in this situation in the first place.”

“I admit, I made a mistake, can we move past it?”

But she wouldn't. Melissa stirred within me when I was tossed into the dungeon at first, that was three hours ago, now, we were both dying from the cold and if I didn't shift, I was sure I’d die before morning.

“Please.”

“Melissa please.”

“Melissa!!”

My whispers echoed sharply in my lonely cell room and then vanished, the silence renewing its suppression immediately.

“Come on, you can't do this to me, Melissa. I'm sorry.”

“If I die, then how are we ever going to see him in the first plac

  • The Alpha King Is My Second Chance Mate    Chapter 75

    Maya's POV.Williams had been missing all day. With my bed rest restriction set in place, I was locked inside the room and told to only knock if I needed something.By the third knock, the healer's help deemed my demands as ‘not actual needs’ and asked that I not call for help again.“That was rough.” Melissa laughed in my face. “I would have never said that to you if I was her.”“Hush it, please. I don't want to hear it.”“Then go to sleep. It's the least you can do. Scratch that, it's what you've been ordered to do.”“But I have nightmares when I sleep.” I told Melissa. “You can't protect me there. Sarah's always trying to kill me.”“Maybe this time, things won't get that bad. Just close your eyes and go to bed, and if she does, get up.”Melissa nagged like she was my mother. So much that I laid straight on my bed and shut my eyes close to appease her.“Now go to bed and when you're awake, we can go find our mate.”“Fine.”Darkness consumed my vision with my eyelids sealed shut, mi

    Sarah's POV.“When I get my hands on her… I promise you, she'll never walk the same.”Thomas adjusted the seats back in place before he came to my side. His arm wrapped gently around me, pulling me closer into him.“Take it easy, you're getting agitated over a fool.” The tightness in my chest didn't ease. I bit down on my lip instead, my vision darkening, “I can't calm down.” I growled, “She just ruined everything we worked so hard for.”“There's still a way to get everything back, we just need to think of a new plan, come up with something Alpha Williams and Maya wouldn't know. Strike them before they can even see what's coming their way.”Thomas placed his palm in mine, the heat from his touch was warm and comforting.But it wasn't heat I needed. It was revenge.“First she tried to push me out of what was rightfully mine, she killed our mother, made our father hate me and just when I was about to finally get my revenge. She stopped me.”“We’ll still get—“No! And stop saying we wil

    Alpha Williams' POV “They call it the Purple tongue curse.” Justin straightened the picture before me. On it we're pictures of body parts all turning purple. Tongues, chest, arms, knees, necks and even eyes. “They all have this in common too.” He pointed to another part of the picture. The engraving of a flower tattooed on their palms. “All the victims have those.”“Any survivors?”“None. All the children who were infected died.”“That's bad news.” I sighed, a slight rub to the sides of my forehead. My brain felt like it had been split in half. “How many kids are we looking at?”“About fifteen? There should be more. More reports are coming in by the minute.”“That's even worse.” My head fell back, “any cure yet? What have the healers been able to come up with?”“Nothing. No progress at all.” Justin shook his head, he settled into the chair before me. “I'm afraid the healers say they can only help contain the poisons in their body. Nothing more.”“That's not good.” I dragged a deep

    Maya's POV.“What is going on?” I barged in, eyes scanning the room, heart thundering in my chest.“There!” She pointed her hand from across the room. My vision swarmed in her direction.There, just feets away, was a child crotched down, shoulders shook violently, eyes bulging, red and tear stricken.“H-help…” his lips trembling.My limbs moved before my brain could. I rushed to touch him but the maid grabbed me.“Let go. He's sick.” I growled.“No, Luna. That's the reason you can't touch him. It's contagious.”Contagious?I stood balanced, her hand released from my side. My breath steadied. “What happened to him?”“H-help, Luna… help me please.” His voice was rough, hoarse with pain.My heart grew heavy. A tear threatened to fall. I could feel my heart breaking for this little boy.“We don't know but from what he told us, something about a leaf.”My ears perked. My eyes shot to the Alpha. Williams gave me a knowing look. Could it be the same flower I had thought of in my dreams?“Wh

    Maya’s POVSleep had become a battlefield for me.As much as I tried to close my eyes, I couldn't.Especially when the Alpha was out of the pack, in meetings.Every night, when I tried, the shadows of my dreams twisted into my sister’s face. Sarah. Her eyes burning with hate, her voice hissing curses, her hands holding knives or fire or worse. One night she slit Alpha Williams’ throat in front of me. Another, she poisoned the food of the entire Silver Moon pack. Another still, she dragged me by the hair and whispered, "If I can’t rule, then no one will.”Each time, I woke up screaming.That morning, I sat on the edge of the bed, my chest heaving, sweat sticking to my nightdress. Alpha Williams stirred beside me.“You dreamed again?” he asked, his deep voice rough with sleep.I nodded, unable to meet his eyes. “She killed you again. I tried to stop her, but it’s like she’s… stronger than me in there.”He reached out and cupped my cheek. His touch alone slowed my trembling. “Dreams c

    Maya’s POV'She's gone.' Melissa whispered in my thoughts. “Sarah is finally gone.”The hall still trembled from the echoes of Sarah’s curses even minutes after she left.Her words, her scent and her voice still lingered long after the guards dragged her and Thomas away. My chest rose and fell as if I had just run a marathon.I had not expected what the Alpha himself did.No way.I hadn't expected to be woken from sleep to testify against my sister and Alpha Thomas.I remembered the terror in their eyes as they watched me confessing. They looked like they would murder me if they could— and they tried.Now, my heart wasn’t only racing from fear—it was torn, pulled in two directions.Even though she was a traitor, she was my sister. No matter what she had done, no matter the poison in her heart, she was still the girl who once braided my hair and whispered secrets to me, even if they were just pretense.I lowered my gaze to the marble floor. “What if I’d done more? What if I could have
