Stephen's POV.Next Morning!!When Daniel and Eva left the pack, all the people in my family were sleeping except me, of course. Only I knew how much my hands were itching to send some guards with him, but then he wanted to keep this family as their daughter’s mate, not as an Alpha.“I know you’re worried about your brother, Stephen. But trust me, I will bring back your brother and your Alpha in one piece, and there is no way I will let anything happen to him, unlike the previous time.”, Eva assured me. “And I give you my words about that part.”Her words helped me a bit, not that much, but then Thunder tried to convince me that I was getting worried for no reason when Eva was assuring me.“When no one in Daniel’s family has any problem with me being half-vampire, then why do you think my family will have any problem with my mate? Not all vampires kill werewolves unnecessarily. Moreover, my real father was once a hybrid, so neither he nor other people in the family hate werewolves.”

Aleena’s POV.I didn’t know what was wrong with the Beta, but he was furious and irritated. I would have given that credit to me if he weren’t pissed from the moment I opened my eyes after everything that happened in the morning. Even Leia was extremely quiet.Did she go into depression or something because of the rejection?I didn’t know she wasn’t talking to me. It was not that we were kind of best friends who used to share each and everything, but for the first time, her silence was bothering me.I wanted her to go away and always used to shut her up, but when she was doing this on her own, then I felt some sort of emptiness.‘Leia, I’m sorry. But you can’t blame me for whatever happened in the morning, just like you had asked me. I didn’t reject him first. It’s just that I accepted his rejection without a fight, and I know you are in pain because of that.’ I tried to talk with her when I saw her sleeping in my mind with her eyes closed.‘I know you need a mate, and I promise to g

Leia’s POV.The moment Aleena fell into a deep sleep. I took control of her and blocked her. I couldn’t thank her mom for this idea.As usual, I was sitting silently and was cursing over my fate until I concentrated on her words. I realized that I had to take a stand for myself because if not now, then I would never be.Just like people say, ‘Take responsibility for your own happiness, never put it in other people's hands.’ And thinking about everything that happened today, I knew with whom I could find my happiness. I had barely left the bed when I heard someone’s voice in my mind.‘Leia’Was someone trying to communicate with ME? But how did that voice know that it wasn’t Aleena, but I was in charge of the body.‘Because I know.’ I heard that female voice again.‘Who are you?’ I asked her. Because I had never heard that voice before, I doubt that Aleena knew someone with that voice.‘My name is Ivory. I’m Evangeline’s Lycan wolf.’ she responded, and slowly an image of a huge beauti

Leia's POV.Did Ivory want to direct her hint in this way?Of course, Aleena was not a kid who could easily come under someone's influence, but then, ‘A lie told once remains a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth.’But the question was, ‘why the hell was she giving all these ideas to Aleena?’That day nothing interesting happened in my life except for watching the same episode of my human drama throughout the day.“Are you ready?” I asked immediately after he closed the door behind me.“Sorry, Leia! I don’t think I can run with you tonight. Stephen has a lot of pending words which he has to finish, and I doubt we will get a chance to spend time together for the next couple of days.”, he apologized.“It’s okay! I can understand.”, I said in an understanding tone.“Won’t you ask me what is that work which is keeping me this busy?” he asked when he saw that I wasn’t going to question him about his work.“No. I think your work part should be kept as a secret because yo

Aleena's POV.After that breaking news, everyone, literally everyone, held Eva and wanted to know the vivid story of everything that happened between her and Daniel. And in that situation, if I had gone into my room to plan something against her, then they would have thought that I wasn’t happy with my sister’s happiness, and exposing my true face in front of my in-laws was not a good decision.So, reluctantly I stayed there listening to her so-called adventurous love story without any interest in my heart.‘Aleena. What am I listening to?’ Mom's mind linked all of a sudden.‘How shall I know that?’ I questioned back, feeling frustrated.‘Tomorrow is that bitch’s Luna ceremony.’‘Yeah! You heard it, right. Not just that, they had marked each other before I could have done anything.’, I grumbled. ‘Now, I can’t wait to discover Eva’s weakness. I have to choose Plan B, which I had planned to use on Daniel earlier.’‘You mean witch portion?’‘Yes! I had kept it in my rose water bottle in
