Chapter 32Lucianna’s POVMy whole body didn’t stop trembling, the thought of losing my friend because of my stubbornness scares me.It’s almost an hour that passed and there’s still no sign of Ashira. I helped looking for her but there’s no sign of her presence. No scent, no tracks, nothing.Jacob didn’t talked to me about it. He was also busy looking for Ashira, just like the rest of us.One thing that kept me shaking was Aiden’s deadly glares at me that I can’t even look at him. I knew he blames me for it, no one might be asking but I know everyone thinks the same.That I am the mastermind of all of it.That I was trying to escape because there’s no reason for us to go at the border.Seth’s jaw kept clenching when he looks my way, and I knew perfectly why. I accepts their silent anger, their silent way of blaming me.No one talks about it, no one blamed me vocally. But that hurts more.And I’m drowning with the feeling.“Ashira was found!”I was quick to stood up, everyone has, too

Chapter 34Lucianna’s POVMy eyes widened with Ashira’s revelation.She’s a what?!A stealer?!I never met a stealer, heck, I don’t even know that kind really exist!Every wolf is destined only for one. I keep saying that to myself, and I never forget that part. A stealer, on the other hand can produce an offspring, a pup, even from someone who is not their mate.That’s… complicated, I guess.I watched my friend as she slouched and her eyes loomed, sadness coiling around her.“...I’m scared.” Ashira closed her eyes and I know how hard she tries not to get in tears. “I’m scared that I’ll lose him because of what I am, Luce.”Aiden’s history, the death of his parents, all of those are because of a certain stealer as Ashira said.I understand Ashira’s fears. Her situation is still complicated in my head but I understand her worries.Sighing, I pulled her for an embrace and hoped that should comfort her somehow.“Ash, past is past fro a reason. You can’t let it taunt your present and mess

Chapter 36Brent’s POVWe arrived at the Shadow pack and I can’t stop watching Jacob and Lucianna as they walked out of the car.Jacob looked annoyed, continually frowning but there’s a ghost of smile in his lips while Lucianna was grinning wide behind him. They are walking towards their house now.The both of them is too bright that everyone will tell something good has happened.I shook my head. I can’t believe these two.“We’ll head back to the Hall now, Alpha Jacob.” said Shink, the head of the guards. We came with him and Cidrey, the head of the trackers.I was walking closer to Jacob and glanced at Lucianna who seems to forgot something inside the car.“Alright. Meeting will be held tomorrow, resume your works for today.”Shink bowed and started to walk away.I rolled my eyes upon what I heard. Well, there’s no extension for the ‘vacation’ we had, huh.“Jake.” I called his attention and he tilted his head, not taking his eyes off his mate who’s half of the body was inside the ca

Chapter 38Jacob’s POV‘Stop right there, Roscoe!’ I said to him thru our mind link. He’s been playing games, running around like a mad wolf. Brent and I can’t catch up to him, his moves differ from way back and the fact that he has the alpha blood in him means he was fast, too.Yes, I can communicate with him through the mind-link. Being gone for nine months, his loyalty remained in the pack, which means Roscoe doesn’t go rogue or joined another pack.‘What? Can’t catch up to me? Still a weakling, brother.’ his roar of laughter echoed in my head.My teeth gritted hard. Fueled by anger, I sped up fast, ignoring all the restraint and peace Brent tried to plant in my head.Roscoe jumped to the tree to maneuver his direction of running when I was about to grab him with my jaw. Instead of going after him, I circled away and dive to where he was headed.Roscoe’s paws dug on the ground, causes the soil and grass to flew from the impact. My wolf is larger than his even when I’m the second ch

Chapter 40Jacob’s POVI don’t wanna pressure her but I think she is pressured so I opted to change the ambiance between us and go on with the stories I’ve kept in my head for so long.“There’s nothing I remember of my past but that tragedy. It all began when I opened myself to Roscoe, tell him the things I never knew I shouldn’t have said…”Nine Years Ago…I run to the training grounds where my brother was scheduled to be at by that time. Huffing and almost out of breath.I’ve just seen something I shouldn’t.Roma, the head of fighters under my father’s regime of the Shadow pack, has a tremendous reddish smoke-like on his shadow as he looked at my father.It creep me out, when he looked at me, the red smoke of shadow behind him formed as to what I think was evil. It looked as if it wanted me, so I have nothing to do but run.Run to someone who always protects me.“Roscoe!” I called. He was busy brawling with his trainer when I came here.“Hey kiddo!” he greeted while being straggled
