Sierra pov.I stood frozen in place, unable to move, as I caught sight of her seated there, her eyes fixed on me. What did she want? Was something wrong?She gracefully rose from the bed and made her way toward me, her every movement captivating my attention."I can see that my Alpha is quite intrigued by you. By the way, what are your plans for coming here?" she inquired, her voice carrying a hint of menace, as though she could annihilate me with just a glance.Feeling overwhelmed, I averted my gaze, unsure of how to respond. Why was she asking such a question?At a loss for words, I remained silent, incapable of formulating a suitable answer. I had no plans for coming here; all I yearned for was freedom and a chance to live a different life.Looking back up at her, I could sense her impatience, the disapproval evident in her demeanor. It seemed clear that she harbored no fondness for me."Sorry, Luna, but I have no plans," I stammered, a tinge of fear betraying my eyes.She stood th

Sierra pov.As I witnessed her utter those words, it felt as though a sharp knife had been mercilessly thrust into my being. Overwhelmed by the pain, I instinctively clutched my stomach, squeezing my eyes shut in an attempt to regain composure and catch my breath.Should I distance myself from this pack as well? Merely contemplating the things she said fills me with an overwhelming sense of fear.Tears began streaming down my face, my heart shattered into countless pieces, leaving me utterly lost and clueless about what to do next. If only Henry were here, he could find a way to bring a smile to my face.I shifted my gaze towards the ceiling, fixating on it for several minutes, and gradually, the agony started to dissipate, leaving behind a faint glimmer of happiness.Fatigue started to wash over me, and the desire to slumber indefinitely, never to awaken, crept into my consciousness. However, just as I was about to surrender to sleep's embrace, an abrupt knock disrupted my tranquilit

Sierra pov.I quickly pulled away after hearing that shout—it was Linda's voice, and I think she caught us.I was so caught off guard that I didn't know what I had just done. I ran away and headed to the bathroom, quickly locking the door behind me.What is going on with me? Why am I making such mistakes? I felt helpless, so I cried, not knowing what to do.I think it's best if I just leave this place; otherwise, everything will only get worse by the second.I was so scared of myself; I hated what I had just done every second.I stayed there, and Dean kept calling my name, asking me to open the door, but I just sat there, not even getting up.This was worse than what I faced in the Lycan pack. Isn't it better if I just stayed there and became a slave for everyone to use?"Sierra, open up," Dean's voice pleaded, but I remained silent."Please, just open it. I'm sorry."Hearing him say that, I felt like hitting him. Did he just say he was sorry? He said the opposite a minute ago, and al

Alex pov.For days now, I haven't laid eyes on Sierra (which was actually a good thing). I glide through my castle with a sense of pride, knowing that soon all of this will be mine.The past few days have left me astounded. William hasn't driven me away or uttered a single complaint about Sierra. The thought of her has not crossed his lips.I close my eyes, and a cool breeze gently passes through me, bestowing upon me a profound sense of calm and relaxation.If Sierra hasn't returned yet, does it mean she might have gone with Henry?Confusion engulfs me, and I struggle to discern my thoughts. It feels as if my mind is teetering on the edge of insanity. What if Sierra has informed him that I abducted her? Will all my plans crumble to dust?Placing my hands on my head, I attempt to ease my troubled mind and temporarily forget about Sierra."I believe it is time for a walk downtown," I whisper with a smile, embarking on a journey beyond the castle walls.The way the people show their res

Sierra pov.It had been three months since I lost my child, and I was still residing in Dean Castle. I felt scared because Linda, without fail, always made sure my life became a living hell.I had tried everything to be kind to her, but she incessantly blamed me for joining the Ghost Pack and stealing Dean away from her, which was far from the truth.Most of the time, I hid in my room, afraid to come out, as if this were just another nightmare to endure.As I sat on my bed, contemplating my next move, a knock on the door startled me. I gazed at it with trepidation as it slowly opened, revealing Linda's presence.I wondered why she had come or if she had come to turn my life into a living nightmare.I observed as she approached me with a smile and sat down beside me. It was the first time she smiled at me, and I couldn't discern if it was a jest or if she had genuinely decided to be pleasant."Are you okay?" I inquired, as she continued to gaze at me, her smile still intact.I remained
