Alyssa’s point of view.I sat down in the dining room as every had dinner together. I kept on stealing glances at Kasper who seemed to be getting along well with Jason.“What’s wrong?” He whispered to me as I shook my head. This was not how I expected my relationship with y mate would be like.I was confused and uncertain about everything.Does Marcelo claim it was his wolf who tried to kill me? How? Why couldn’t he pick my scent? Yes, Ligia was still weak, but I know being with Kasper can strengthen my wolf.‘What’s wrong?’ Jason linked to me as I bit my lower lip, shaking my head.‘You seem to be distracted throughout dinner. Is something wrong?’ He asked me.‘No. I just keep thinking of the people we just lost. Don’t worry,’ I assured him while faking a smile at everyone as if I was even listening to Kasper’s stories.I must say that it wasn’t that exciting for me.“So it was a Lycan that attacked them?” Kasper suddenly asked as I shivered to get my glass of wine.“From what the su
Marcelo’s point of view“Why are you still doing this? Hasn’t she found her mate yet?’ Connor question me as I got ready to go and see Alyssa.I wanted to talk to Alyssa, and hopefully, I can get her to understand that I didn’t plan on hurting her.“I don’t like the fact that you are always going to look for her when we are being—““You can handle the attacks on the other packs, right?” I turned to him and he gave me an affirmative nod.“Good. Let’s do that then. I will let you know once I am back home,” I said to him, grabbing my keys and phone.I was going to head to the east side border and wait for her as she had promised me that she will come.I parked my bike and went to stand by the cliff to wait for her. Why did they suddenly have wolves patrolling the part of their pack? I know that they don’t patrol it.Did Alyssa say something to her brother? The moon illuminates the trees with the stars shining brightly.I sigh heavily, sitting back as I watch the minutes slowly turn into
Alyssa’s point of viewLavender. Fresh lavender. It’s inciting. It’s like someone is here.Marcelo?My eyes snap open, covered in a cold sweat, my heart pounding.pounding.Looking around the room, suspicious and paranoid that Marcelo would come to my room. I look around the room and Kasper is not in my bed. Where did he go?The sun shines through the window. It’s already morning. Is it why I could smell lavender?“Kasper’s men attacked him on the southeast border.” Marcelo’s voice comes from downstairs and I frown. What could he be doing here?I throw off the sheets and stumble out of bed. I quickly grab my robe and make my way out of the bedroom.Are they arguing? What happened? My heart pounds even more. The curiosity is killing me to know that his here right now when I should have been with him last night.You attacked him in my territory?” Marcelo sounds calm more than anything.It worries me.“Do you think this is funny? Tyler is my family and right now his fighting for his life—
>>>>>Alyssa’s point of viewStaring out the window of my room, I doubted if I had made the right decision to let a stranger mark me.He was my mate, yes, but the past week since Marcelo showed up here; he sniffles me like crazy trying to find out if I was with Marcelo or if at all I was cheating on him.Kasper claims it’s his wolf, but I think it’s just who he is. A man who would gladly pretend to be loving, yet he is a monster.“Allie?” I heard Frey’s voice behind me, bringing me back to reality. “IS everything okay?” She questions me, placing down the tray that she came with on the table as I nodded my head.‘Yes. Everything is fine. You can take back the food. I don’t have an appetite,” I said, looking away as I stared into oblivion, thinking about my life again.I was moving out of the pack in a few days, which means I have to wrap up all my projects here and who knows what Jason will do with all the rogues when I leave here.“Allie, what’s bothering you?” Freya asks me again, an
Kasper’s point of view“Yes? Do you have everything ready?” I asked my informant, who just advised me that my plan was finally in motion. I was glad about whatever was happening.Soon I would make my move and it would not be something that all of them expect. To them, I am just nothing but a rogue king who isn’t worthy of their respect.I felt my wolf suddenly growl as I took a deep breath. Something was wrong with Alyssa. He seemed uneasy and was pacing back and further.‘What’s wrong?’ I tried to find out what was wrong and what was causing him to react like that.‘She’s in trouble,’ He said to me as I clenched my jaws.“Fuck!” I cursed, looking at the time she should have been here right now. I rushed out of the bedroom, going to look for her downstairs.“Kasper! Do you have a minute?” Jason stopped me before I could go down the stairs. I closed my eyes, inhaling briefly before I turned to look at him.“Yes.” I faked a smile as he walked closer to where I was.“I wanted to discuss
Alyssa’s point of viewLavender. Fresh lavender. Ocean. Water. I try to open my eyes, but they are heavy. I feel like my head is heavy as well.“Frey? Frey?” I shout, trying to sit up. I am in a strange place.I suddenly snap my eyes as I look around. The window is blowing through the window and the white linen curtains are blown away. On the side bed table, there’s my handbag and phone.I can feel someone’s presence in the room, so I shift my head to the left and Marcelo is sitting on the accent armchair, his hands clasped together and leaning on his knees as he looked at me.“Marcelo? What did you do? Why am I here?” I panic as I look around the room. This is fucking crazy.I sit up and get out of bed as he looks at me.‘Why did you let him mark you?” He asks, his voice sounding broken as I swallow hard, looking into his eyes.‘He is my mate.” I replied, and he chuckled softly, nodding his head and lowering his eyes. My gaze lingers on him, wondering what he might be thinking right
>>>>>Alyssa’s point of viewI sat in the passenger seat as Frey drove back to the pack. I wasn’t at Marcelo\s pack but some mansion in his pack.My head is leaning against the window. I can’t believe that I had threatened Marcelo to kill me when surely I know it is just me proving that I have feelings for Kasper when a few minutes ago I was wrapped in his arms..“Would you have slit your throat?” Frey suddenly asked, breaking the silence in the car. I let out a heavy sigh, looking in her direction.“I don’t know. But I couldn’t let him kill someone on my behalf,” I said to her, and she sighed heavily, glancing at me.“We have been gone for the entire night. I am sure everyone was worried. What are you going to say?Jason will be—““I will handle Jason. I will tell him the truth,” I said to her, and she gasped.“Wait what? Do you want to tell him that you were with Marcelo? The entire night?” She asked me as I nodded my head.“I will tell the truth. I can’t lie to him,” I said to her
>>>>Marcelo’s Point of viewDays LaterShe would slit her throat just to protect that asshole? Did she love him so much that she would risk everything to protect him?I slurped from my glass of wine, staring from my balcony at the pack. I had everything that any King would want but yet I couldn’t even be with the woman I love?“Well, seems that didn’t go as planned,” Connor said, coming to stand next to me. I ignore him, gulping down my glass of wine.“The Redstone pack sent word” He started, but right now I was not in the mood to listen to politics.“Deal with it. I will—““One of Kasper’s men was spotted. It seems his mobilising himself.” He cut me short before I could walk away as I looked at him.“What do you mean?”“They suspect that they might be an attack. Especially their pack. A lot of killings have been—““Surely, you must know it’s just a way of them wanting us to send our men there. That’s why he mentioned Kasper,” I cut him short. I can’t believe he can’t tell. That’s wh
