Leila's POV.I gasp, watching the Head slave and Shantel communicating has made me realize that the Head slave likes Shantel but the feeling is definitely not reciprocated.If the look of contempt on Shantel's face is any sign, I knew the Head slave has been in support of her the whole time, but this confirmed it, maybe even having a hand in one or two of her antics like what I just witnessed, of course I am not in a position to do anything about it.This leads me to another realization, the Head slave has always been torturing me, sending me on pointless errands and making sure my life is nothing less than a living hell, I always pinned it down to dislike and the Alpha.I always thought that the Alpha was the reason for my suffering, but from what I just saw and heard, half, if not all of my suffering boils down to Shantel herself.She could easily manipulate the woman to make my life miserable, she knew that malnutrition would make my wolf weak and my health deteriorate, so she ins

Darren's POV.I watched my guards with narrowed eyes, my mood already at the point of snapping at someone.Aidan went out to get building materials so we could rebuild some places that were destroyed.I didn't like the damage on my pack recently and I wanted it to be the way it was even better, I had all the money to make it that way.The truck drove in, distracting me from watching my guards train.The driver came down and Aidan followed suit, he opened the back door.And the guards rushed there, trying to pick building materials.One of them grabbed the blocks,the others picked out the materials they could pick to the building store room.I turned to the truck driver who smiled at me, he took his cap off to wave a hand in greeting.The guards finished their jobs soon enough, and they were back to training.Watching them train annoyed me, everything that happened last week played in my mind.I couldn't stop thinking of it, and it annoyed me that they didn't protect the pack well.Tha

Darren's POV.I paced the spot Alpha Dean told me to wait, my heart beating quickly, I didn't know what he would say or what to expect.I was so nervous, I started sweating in my palms, I kept rubbing my hands on my trousers.The air was still and warm, but the humidity was rising and there was a slight breeze blowing towards me from over the trees.It felt good and refreshed after being cooped up in the car all day with nothing much to do, my nerves were jittering away like a schoolgirl on her first date. If someone said an Alpha would be this nervous and jittery for information I would've laughed at whoever it was.I didn't even understand why I was nervous, I felt like my feelings were interfering with my reasoning, I can't believe I wanted her father to be innocent, so I won't hate her anymore.I felt like I was lying to myself, I couldn't even hate her properly, I couldn't do anything without feeling guilty.It felt like my heart was wrecked whenever she was hurt or when I did a

Leila's POV.The preparation for the feast was very abrupt, but we had to do it quickly.The preparations were more difficult because the head slave said it'll be a grand feast. I didn't know which Alpha was coming, but I knew it was an Alpha.The head slave said she'd explain it later and so I decided to go out, eat something, and then come back. I was hungry, tired and I couldn't do anything if I didn't eat.The other slaves were all working,as I grabbed bread and ate immediately.I didn't feel like eating more anyway, so I just threw the rest of the bread away.I joined the other slaves in preparing the food items for what we wanted to cook.My eyes wandered through the hall looking at everything that was prepared before us.Some slaves were doing some dishes while others were putting together trays for food.Some of the slaves were preparing some other foods, some were mixing other ingredients into some other dishes.But most of them were working, cleaning up the place,so any foo

Darren's POV.I drove like a lunatic, trying to shake off the anxiety creeping up my spine and trying not to be distracted by all of the cars parked along the highway behind me.I was still on edge about Leila, I couldn't control my thoughts and I was anxious to know if she'll ever forgive me.I gripped the steering wheel tightly and drove like I just got induced with cocaine.All that running around in Central Park I took earlier to drop Alpha Dean wasn’t helping either.It was almost noon when I pulled into the parking lot of the bloody moon pack.I knew their reputation and I knew I shouldn't take Alpha Dean through this route, but I needed release from the tension I felt inside me.Aidan gave me a knowing look, shaking his head, he knew what I was up to, yet I didn't really care, I needed that fight to feel a little better.I stepped down from the car, and Alpha Dean and Aidan followed suit."You're asking for trouble here." Aidan sighed."I need the release, training won't give
