Alpha Jake's POV

I pulled out my sword and froze as I realized the look on Nicholas' face.

"She's just a mistress, one of your mistresses. I don't expect you to be disturbed like this," I managed to say without looking into his eyes.

"Noelle is not just a mistress." Nicholas' rage was so hot that I could feel it even without standing close to him.

"She is your adviser, I remember." I tried to pacify him but I expected him to understand. "My hands are tied. If she's found guilty, I will have no choice." Knowing that he wouldn't be very happy with that, I moved farther.

"Every sensible soul knows that she was framed for this murder. Everything was too accurate." He moved closer to me and I felt somehow suppressed.

"We can only act on what is proved, to maintain justice. Alpha Nicholas, you are a high-ranking Alpha, you understand this more than I do." I put my sword back in its sheath. It seemed like there wasn't going to be any training today.

    Alpha Nicholas Shafter's POV The woman shook her head slowly. I asked again while catching my breath, "Then, am I going to finally die the real death this time?" To my shock, the shadow nodded again. My heart trembled. "Can you do it quickly or are you not the one to do it?" Again, the shadow nodded. Seeing that, my lips curved in joy and I felt relieved. For once, I neither cared about my life nor felt terrified. For once, I believed that my suffering would end. I lifted my hands up to welcome it. "Please, do it now." The woman moved closer with slow and deliberate steps. But just as she reached me, she looked twisted with her mouth lined with rows of jagged teeth. Her body stiffened with terror as she let her arms spread wide. "Why are you hesitating? Just do it." But before her teeth could touch me, a burst of light split the void, and another woman, older, stepped in to join us while her body glowed with power. "DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH MY SON!" Her voice shook the dark

    Alpha Nicholas Shafter's POV Darkness. That was all I saw. I found myself in an endless void where no wind stirred, there were no stars, and there was also no sound, not even echoes. The only thing I heard was the slow pounding of my own heart. This was not the first time I would be here. In fact, I felt like I spent most of my lifetime, drifting in this dark abyss. Sitting down with my knees pulled closer to my chest and my arms wrapped around myself as if I wanted to protect my body from the emptiness. My lips kept trembling as I whispered into the dark. "Why me?" My own voice came back to me and I quickly gulped. "Why was I born only to suffer? Why do I keep coming back here?" My eyes closed and the memories came back. I was the unwanted child, the son of the Alpha who was not wanted by his father. I was the illegitimate prince of the Shafter Pack and I was born into the palace not as a son but as a servant, an omega. My father’s concubines always looked at me with di

    Anna's POV Everything I had gone through started flowing back into my head. Starting from what I went through in Linda's and Alpha Jake's hands. I was supposed to have a happy ending not one to get destroyed by Alice and the invincible army created by her uncle, James. Even when I became the Alpha, all the sacrifices I made for the pack, my father's legacy. I had to kill this man to make sure all that were not wasted. No matter how hard this proved to be, I must see it to the end. It was just like a second chance for me. "I only wanted to save myself and the people of my time," I whispered to myself. My hands trembled as I looked at him. "Just to make sure that Alice won't have the invincible army before I leave this world." My eyes narrowed. The words in my mind sharpened into a vow and it encouraged me. "I can't let you live, Alpha Nicholas Shafter." I pulled out a dagger and raised it up with my fingers stiffened around the hilt. Slowly, I stepped forward with the aim of

    Anna's POV Before she could realize what was happening, I slammed a sharp strike into the side of her neck and her eyes bulged instantly while she exhaled a strangled gasp. I brought up my low voice after a dry chuckle. "Didn't you say you are the best in the pack. If you, the best is like this, how will the worst be."? Immediately, Wendy collapsed and her body hit the ground with a thud. Her eyes were still wide open in disbelief but the twinkle in her eyes had vanished. I dusted off imaginary sand away from my sleeve and walked off without sparing him another glance. I followed Wendy's direction and found myself at Alpha Nicholas' Fort. Torches glowed faintly against the night with long shadows against the stone walls. A handful of guards were patrolling the gate while their armor kept clinking softly. "Your Highness!" They stopped and bowed politely with respect as they caught a hold of my sight. I did not respond but my expression was a mask of cold determination. I cont

    Anna's POV I quickly remembered everything Sturbridge told me about the man I came here to kill. He was the most powerful back in his time; no one could match his power, and he was literally not killable. The only way I could kill him was to get to him before he became a celestial demon. He didn't become a celestial demon until he got me, his wife, pregnant. So I had to kill him now before he would get me pregnant, easy peasy. On the other hand, for some reason that I didn't know, Wendy kept shivering violently beside me. She didn't seem cold but her bones kept rattling as if frost had pierced into her marrow. It seemed like she was suspecting that something must have awakened in me. She turned her head away as her breath kept hitching. My stern eyes bore into her with sharpness as if I had a killing intent so deep, like I wanted to claw at her soul. "Hey, Wendy!" I said with a thin and dangerous smile. "How do I get back to my residence? How do I get back to my husband?" We

    Anna's POV My breath felt like it was caught and squeezed by a giant invisible hand while my chest constricted. Out of all the cursed names and all the cursed places, Shafter Pack was the only one I wouldn't wish anyone to get associated with. My father used to tell me about them, how powerful, brutal, and merciless they were. Their power and brutality were so bad that all the other packs came together to annihilate them before my time. Sturbridge's words were also clear and simple. The only way to defeat Alice was to go back to the past to kill Margaretta's mother's ex-husband within his pack territory. And that pack was none other than the Shafter Pack. Sharp chills swept over my spine and I felt as if ice was cutting into my marrow. My gaze snapped back to Wendy in despair. "Tell me his name," I demanded. Wendy blinked as if she was confused by the intensity of my tone. "His name, my Lady?" "Yes!" my voice cracked as it had become raw with fear while my heart thundered in
