LOGINWriter's POV Harinth, clueless at first, finally recovers. Hearing the gasps from the Pack and Cathylene immediately realizes that Harinth not being present is more perfect for her. “Run away! Now!” She mindlinks him. But she's too late.As Harinth is already being grabbed and pulled inside by the guards. “To prove the identities of these two men, I'll check their bodies for the Durk birthmark. If truly they are his son, they will possess his mark… the Mark of Durk offsprings…” Martha says.“I won't let you touch my son after speaking all manner of nonsense!” Cathylene goes defensive. “You will let me if you want to prove your innocence and tell the whole Pack that I'm lying…”“No… you won't…” She pulls Liam behind her, ready to fight Martha and anyone that tries to open her son's clothes. “Cathylene!” Elder Brooke rumbles another warning. “Do as the woman says!”Behind his mother, Liam is frozen.Every damn thing is going wrong. Everything. The only thing he feels is enormous
Writer's POV The moment Nathan drops the bomb, the hall erupts. “What… Liam is not a Durk?!”“How?!”“How can this be! Who then is his father!”Shocking gasps from the Pack members burst in the hall. “And there's more,” Nathan continues, his eyes covered in rage as it settles on Cathylene once again. “This woman propagated lies upon my mother…” he sneers. “Everything she claimed my mother did are all—”“Shut up!” Cathylene barks, “shut up your filthy mouth!” She growls, giving Nathan no chance to finish. No, she wouldn't let him. She wouldn't let him blurt things he knew nothing about!Their eyes lock and hold. And she tries hard to control the swirling of fury in her core, to stop her chest from showing the deep anger and hatred burning inside her. She should have killed this bastard a long time ago!Nathan sneers, still glaring at Cathylene. She's boiling over in rage where she's standing, glaring back at him. And he likes it.He can see it in her eyes… the deep pain slamming
Writer's POV An hour later, the Alpha election begins. The atmosphere has thickened with suspense now. Elder Brooke sits isolated in the podium ready to handle the voting and counting, alongside some selected elders. As agreed, it'll be paper voting… all Pack members to cast their votes. Elders firsts. Betas and Gammas next. And then the omegas and servants. Liam grips his thigh, his legs tapping repeatedly on the ground.Oh he will kill Nathan as soon as this election is over.Goddess help him, he doesn't win. He will rip him into shreds. And whatever the results are, he’ll still kill him. “Calm your nerves,” Cathylene cast him a frown.“Are you sure you are alright?” She squints… “Liam… is there something you are hiding from me… your mother…”Liam freezes as his mother's gaze settles on him. And then switches. From the look of one already smelling victory to an uncertain one. “Oh I will fucking kill you Nathan bastard!” He cuss inwardly, racking his head about what to tell hi
Writer’s POV ELECTION DAYIn the new Alpha house, everyone is gathered in the Pack election hall. The new Alpha house will be commissioned immediately after the elections.The atmosphere is both tense and suspenseful, everyone wondering who will win the elections. You can see it in the faces of almost everyone. After all, no one knows who will become the new Alpha of the Pack.And a wrong leader spells a doomed future. The hall is divided into two sections with pews. Those on the side of Liam are seated by the right section of the hall behind Liam himself who's occupying the very front pew. And those supporting Jaxon on the other section of the hall. Liam's jaw keeps locking and unlocking. Right where he's seated, his fingers are curled into fists. His eyes narrowed.If not for his mother and this election, he shouldn't be here. He should be out there looking for Hannah. Bringing her back to him. When he awoke from his sleep and realized she'd drugged him with sleeping pills an
Hannah's POV I'd almost given up… wondering if I'd picked up the wrong bottle of pills. When it happened.Liam's glass of drink tumbles out of his grip and shatters on the ground.Immediately, he staggers back, blinking and staring widely at me. Half confused. Half shocked.Slowly, I get up, the smile on my face gone now. I don't move. Just my chest heaving up and down, my hands shaking, and the effect of what I'd just done staring right at me. Liam stops, the confusion in his face now replaced by sheer shock. “What… what did you give me…”No answer. He points to the shattered glass with unsteady hands. “What the fuck did you…. slip into that drink…”He reaches to grab me but I quickly step back and he clatters to the ground.“What did you fucking give me …. Hannah!”Sleeping pill. That's what. I'd slipped it in when he was distracted. When he'd happily gone to get me the other glass cup. I didn't think I could do it. When I had picked it up before coming here, I didn't t
Hannah's POV Inside the bathroom, I freeze.“Who can it be?” I wonder, already reaching for my clothes on the towel hanger. The footsteps gets louder and closer. My ears open wide, my wolf senses springing to life.Just then, the corridor door opens slowly… And like a waft of air, a strong wolf scent breezes past my nostrils.It's too quick and sudden. Like a flash, that I can’t tell if it's familiar or unfamiliar. I inhale quietly, trying to pinpoint the owner of this scent. But I can't, no matter how much I try. Then it stops— the footsteps.I wait for it to sound again.But I don't hear it.And until I finish dressing up and leave Nathan's quarters, I don't see any signs of anyone, or can tell who had come by. The thought that it could have been Brenda or worse Liam, worries me. But I know Liam Durk's wolf scent like the back of my palm. Nina would have even reacted the moment we smelt it… if it was truly him.But then knowing the elections is barely two days away now and h
~Hannah~I'm finally resuming work after a full week of being home. Doing what? Serving people because my dear husband won the first round of Alpha elections and I needed to be a good and exemplary wife. Even though I won't smell the Luna title. Nina whines at the thought. I have never seen any
~Nathan~I have never been a filial son to my foster mother. Probably never would. While I was growing up, I tried so hard to please her. I tried so hard to make her look at me the way she looked at Liam. And maybe talk to me just a quarter of the way she talks to Liam. But I was a child and fool
~Hannah~“Hannah! Why's the meat still on fire!” Linda blares. “Why are the drinks not here yet?”“How long will you wash those dishes!”Goddess! Doesn't she see the pile of dishes in front of me that I'm trying to deal with right now? Hannah, why this! Hannah, why that! Let me breathe!I'm about
~LIAM~My heart is full watching the shock in Hannah's face as I hand her the car keys. I bet she never expected that I'd do something so huge for her. But she's my wife. My woman. My mate. And will be my Luna soon. And she deserves this much. The envious looks on some of the elders' sons and prom
