"Quicken your steps!!"I inhaled sharply and scrambled toward the house.Approaching the house, I held a nearby tree there for support.I tried to inhale and exhale, struggling to catch my breath.And just then I started hearing footsteps, it was as if they were running or could I say brawling.I didn't notice that I was almost close to the old house till I lifted my head. My eyes widened as my jaw dropped at the scene in front of me.I watched in awe as Amelia's hand reached up and grabbed one of the intruders by the collar.I attempted to make a move but remembering her word that she doesn't ever want to see me glue me to my spot. Holding me back from stepping forward. Intruders…… wait!" I knew these people, this is my father's warriors, and wait is this, not Jefferson, my father's best spy?Why are they here?What is going on, did my father send them? The intense cry of one of the men pulled me out of my reverie state.I was still behind the tree with the shadow of the night obs

I sat beside Allen trying to keep him warm, Jade and Jerome sure sustained a lot of injuries. Staying here is no longer safe, especially now that we are in our wolf forms with no clothes to wear. Looking at the lifeless creatures on the ground, an idea popped into my head.We can change into their clothes since we are left with no choice.Turning Allen a bit, I run my tongue around his wounds. Trying to control his bleeding, which was still more, was coming out.He is losing a lot of blood, I need to attend to him quickly but definitely not in my wolf form. I sighed and distanced myself from him a bit.Standing on my paws, I gently walked over to one of the men and pulled off his clothes, and rushed deep inside the woods with his clothes on my mouth, ignoring the stare that I was getting from Jade and Jerome.Emerging out from the woods, I transformed back to my human form when fully dressed."Pull off their clothes and go get changed," I commanded before going to sit beside Allen.I

And just then an old man around his early eighties walked out with the young supporting him as he strode toward us.Something doesn't feel nice about him, I don't know but I suddenly despise him, which is strange."Amos Barney," Jerome's eyes widened.The man instantly stopped and looked back at Jerome. Let me guess another murder.But something seemed off about this man and I don't why I loathe him so much at first sight. "Who are you?" His voice seemed shaky like he was struggling to form any words.Jerome suddenly felt uncomfortable confusing me, I spared a glance at Jade but he looked away not wanting to meet my gaze.He has been giving me that attitude since tonight. I sighed and looked back at the old man who stood there cracking his head to know if he could in any way remember Jerome who claimed to have known him.No matter what is going on here, one thing is certain this man has also worked for that mute Alpha called Khalid."Who are you?" He asked again."Mmmm…… Still, surpr

Albin's pov:I have been inside this room for about four days now and I swear the absence of my mate is driving me insane.Fuck the grounding…..! Do I look like him as a little kiddo that he can ground from doing anything? He succeeded in driving my mate out there and now Allen is trying to woo her.Typical brother!The idea that_ that slutty mate of mine is giving Allen attention despite knowing that we are brothers still had me at the edge. I howled in anger and smashed the glass of whiskey on my face against the wall, bang….. The glass pieces on the wall with the liquid spilled all over the walls. I rumbled my hair angrily, here I am grounded and my mate is out there with my brother living the best of their life. My eyes dart around my room with irritation, everywhere is a total mess. Empty bottles of whiskey and Devil's springs vodka that I drank were all over the room giving the room an awful smell. I couldn't even remember the last time I took my bath, my room looked shatte

"What exactly do you want, Albin?" "Do the rightful by coming to your dear mate, slut!" His bitter laugh creaks through the whole place, irritating me. It is just to come with him, no harm there…….. If only he wouldn't cause harm to those dear to me then I will do it, for their lives matter to me. I tried to take a step forward but got stopped by Allen, he shook his head at me in disapproval."I will return……!" I smiled at him before walking away with Albin.I bet a little sacrifice won't hurt, not when I needed them for my revenge, gaining their trust matters! Gaining their trust is the number one thing that I needed if I ever want to succeed in this bumpy voyage.I might have lost some trust after transforming that night and this little thing could show them that I still care.I need them to open up to me and I believed that they held the answers that I might be looking for.You can never understand Allen, NEVER!!"You can't go with him, Amelia," I paused on my step as I heard A
