ALLISON POV"You're doomed, Allison Stone, no matter how far you hide. You shall die and bring pain to your loved ones!"I whimpered as the great seer's eyes turned red. She let out a peal of wicked laughter, and her torch glowed. "I'm doing the supernatural world and humanity a great privilege by creating a balance in the world. The balance needs to start from you.""Don't kill me!" I yelled, but whether she heard me or not, she didn't care. She pointed her touch to me like before.And I gasped out, jerking awake. Sweat dribbled down my face, and my breath came out raggedly. It was the second nightmare since I arrived, and I doubt it would stop soon.I ran a hand through my hair and heaved a breath before shutting my eyes.How long would this be for? I didn't know too. I had tried everything possible to escape from my harsh reality; it seemed I wasn't doing enough running.The worst was thinking I'd get refuge in Chase's pack. I had thought I'd be protected from the people chasing af

CHASE POV“Darling.”I sighed for the umpteenth time as the whore, Sharon; I believed that was her name, rubbed my earlobe.She brushed her breasts against my arm as she leaned into me, and her finger gripped a lock of my hair.All that she was doing disgust me, but I couldn't push her away.Her job was to satisfy me for my stay in TRINITY for the business deal I came to snag. TRINITY was a large city known for its tourist attractions and commercial building. And it was my second time here.I didn't want to have a romantic partner. Heck, I had no intention of having that. And for me to forget Allison, who was at my pack house, and stopped myself from doing something irrational, like running back home, whereas I had barely done what I came for.I had chosen Sharon to be with me. I saw her as the perfect bed warmer, and fuck, mate.However, I didn't know she was this clingy."Are you listening?" Sharon's annoying voice broke through my thoughts.“How about we get to the penthouse and do

ALLISON“Hey, Allie!”I let out a groan at the annoying voice of Tristan Wright.Since I resumed work today, he have been bugging me. And I wonder if there was more to his nagging.It wasn't as if I couldn't ignore his small talk and move on to what I wanted; it was the fact that he always intercepted me when I tried to ignore him.And believe me, I tried everything I knew to move away from him.Yet, nothing worked.“What do you want?” I glowered at him.“Just making sure you are well settled in.” He flashed me a smile as he sat on my desk.Grasping my pen, he tapped it on the desk, annoying me further.“I need no monitoring. Besides, I am doing quite alright.” I flashed him a tight-lipped smile, hoping he'd catch the hint that I didn't want to speak with him.But he didn't seem as though he was intelligent enough.“Hey, don't be like that,” Tristan said.I heaved a breath and shoved the rude retort down to the back of my throat.Staring him in the eyes, I saw his blue-green eyes flas

ALLISON'S POVI sighed, attempting to focus on the meeting that Chase had insisted I attend. As his assistant, it was my duty to follow him wherever he went, whether I liked it or not. I didn't have much of a choice, considering the consequences if he were to fire me. The thought alone was unsettling, as it would leave me homeless in no time.But back to the meeting. It was incredibly frustrating. The men couldn't resist throwing sideways glances in my direction, and it was starting to grate on my nerves. Part of me wanted to walk away, but doing so would not only embarrass me but also reflect poorly on Chase. I didn't want to give him another reason to scold me. I had already endured enough of his condescending remarks, treating me like a six-year-old.I had chosen not to speak to him after the stunt he pulled earlier in the office. Although I couldn't entirely blame him, as I had consented to it, I didn't expect Chase to push me into something I didn't want to do. However, I couldn'

CHASE POVAllison stood by the door, her eyes alert. She seemed as if I might suddenly grab her and throw her onto the bed, taking her forcefully. Although that thought briefly crossed my mind, I preferred her to approach me willingly. Forcing her into something she didn't desire was not what I wanted.As for the earlier announcement I had made, even I was taken aback by it. I had never expected to utter those words. It was something that had never crossed my mind before. I never wanted to mate with Allison. It was evident that we weren't right for each other. She appeared to be the kind of woman who sought more, while I wasn't inclined to fulfill all her desires; in fact, that was why I had refrained from marking her.I wasn't bothered by her rejection.Admittedly, this might have been a foolish decision, but I had wanted to avoid a scenario where she demanded more than I could provide. However, the reality was that she was the cursed child from the moon, and currently, she was my on
