MasukAmelia“Amelia,” a soft voice whispers. “Amelia, wake up,” the same voice insists, a little louder. I blink my eyes open slowly and groan at the pain instantly pounding in my skull. I try to sit up, but fail, falling back on the ground just as I realize I’m bound, laying on a cold stone inside a dark cave. The last thing I remember is leaving the bedroom and heading to the nursery to check on Mira. I was near the door when there was this awful surge of pain in the back of my head and suddenly, everything turned black. “What the hell happened?” I whisper to myself, close my eyes and try to recall if I remember anything else. “I think I know who it was,” my wolf whispers and I realize it was her voice that woke me. “Who?” I ask without thinking, not caring if anyone could overhear me. “Right before you blacked out, I sensed Ethan’s presence. I’m pretty sure there was his scent too, but it was mixed with that disgusting rogue stench, so I didn’t realize it until it was too late,” s
LoganShock and fury wars inside me as Katherine’s words sink in. Ethan is still alive and somehow, he managed to sneak into my pack. The bastard probably heard about the wedding and used the joyful occasion to enter the territory under a disguise. My grip on Katherine’s throat tightens a little as my mind rushes with questions. “The poison. What do you know about it?” Katherine remains completely silent, so I ask the next question. “What is his plan? There has to be more, we all know Ethan is mad, but he won’t risk his life just to add a couple of drops of poison to a wine. What else is he planning to do?” She remains tight-lipped, glaring at me like I deserve all the hate in the world. Derrick appears next to me and nods at the maid, who hands him another glass with the wine since Katherine dropped the glass my mother gave her. Slowly, he removes my hand from her throat. “Thank you,” Katherine gasps, rubbing her neck, “I knew you’re still on my side. I knew you still see reason
LoganI watch the scene unfold completely dumbfounded, shocked to my core. The wedding guests exchange worried glances, so I set the glass back on the table and clear my throat, turning my attention to my mother. “Mom, what’s going on?” “You’ll see what’s going on soon enough,” she answers and glares at Amelia. “Drink it, Katherine. Prove to everyone you didn’t add anything to the wine.” I watch her and frown. She’s talking to Amelia and calling her Katherine… Mother has to be confused, after all, she’s still recovering from the poisoning. “Mom, there has to be a misunderstanding. You’re talking to Amelia, not Katherine,” I say loudly enough for my voice to carry over the voices of the guests.The maid mother waved over turns to me and bows slightly, “Alpha Logan, Luna Jane is right. The whole kitchen staff agrees this woman isn’t Luna Amelia. She would never command the maids so rudely and arrogantly, she’s too kind. Luna Amelia has never shown a nasty spirit.” “The appearance m
KatherineAs soon as I agree with his plan, Ethan snaps his fingers and a man appears next to him. My eyes follow his every movement as he accepts a bundle of keys and unlocks my cell, pulling the door wide open. Cautious, I step out and can’t help but glance in the direction of the cell next to mine. Right there, on the cold, damn ground, lies my father’s lifeless body. A cold shiver runs down my spine, bile rises up my throat and my knees buck under me, but I manage to stay upright. “Drop the dramatics,” Ethan hisses next to me. “We need to leave before the next shift guards arrive.” I nod and follow him blindly. Once outside, Ethan leads me to a storage shed not far away and forces a pile of clothes in my arms. “Change into these, don’t waste my time.” My entire body trembles as I hurry to wear the clothes he gives me. The entire situation is tense as it is, but Ethan makes it way worse by standing here, watching me change. He doesn’t even have the decency to turn his head awa
KatherineAfter my father and I are dragged to the dungeon, the guards force us into cells next to each other. The very men, who cowered before me just days ago, now look at me like I’m the scum of earth. I briefly consider trying to bribe them, but what do I have to offer anymore? It’s not power—that was stripped from me very publicly and it’s not like I hold any riches without Logan either. “I can’t believe you’re careless enough to let him find the evidence,” my father snarls from his cell. “I thought I taught you well, showed you how to cover your traces, but it turns out you never listened!” Frustration surges through me in a violent wave. How dare he accuse me of being careless if all along, I’ve been the only one who had to do the work while he sat back and watched. “It’s not only my fault,” I retort. “If only you would’ve killed Amelia when you had the chance, none of this would happen!” A loud, bitter echo against the walls, “of course, so typical of you to shift the bla
AmeliaThe moment the words leave Logan, Katherine screams in horror. Guards seize her and drag her away kicking and screaming, while to my surprise, Ronan just walks out with the guards without any fight, his head hung low. Once the door closes behind them, Logan addresses the crowd. “Amelia is my fated mate and the true Luna of Ravencrest,” he says with a smile and holds out his hand for me to approach him. The guests cheer as I walk to Logan and carefully slip my hand in his, still holding Mira. “And the baby in her arms,” Logan says loudly, then swallows the emotion to add, “that’s my son. My mate has given me the greatest gift an Alpha could dream of—an heir to our pack.” The crowd erupts in louder cheers, Alpha’s shouting, congratulating Logan and me, wishing our baby a future even royals would be envious of. While the ceremony hall fills with loud cheers and Logan beams at everyone like a man standing at the top of the world, his mother stands next to me, bringing a shaky h
Logan Dinner comes along sooner than I expect. For the entire day, I admit, I’ve been walking around and moping after what happened yesterday. I still feel off about the situation, especially about the moment Amelia walked into the room. “Bring the food!” Derrick calls out, his loud voice pulls m
KatherineThe next day after the tense dinner thankfully feels more calm. Amelia doesn’t join us for breakfast, which I believe is another win for me. I have a simple breakfast with Logan and Derrick, but for the most part, I just listen to their boring conversations about the warriors training. O
Logan The dinner, as tense as it started, eventually ends on a rather nice note. Derrick heads to his office and his Beta shows us the rooms. Amelia, for some reason, is led to an opposite side of the estate while Richard shows me and Katherine a bedroom near Derrick’s.Once I make sure Katherine
Logan I stayed in the office with Derrick for hours, the wine flowed easily and by the time I left him there, I knew I had far too many drinks. By the time I return to my room, the alcohol has made my vision blurry and my head heavy. I’m uneven on my feet as I push the door open and step inside.
