Brenda "What did you just say?" I asked again to make sure that I had heard correctly."I said, Alpha Hunter, your boyfriend, took away his mate's special privilege, and now the kid has been thrown into the den of wolves to survive on her own," Keisha answered, and I calmly took a step back to process what she just said.It occurred to me that she just mentioned something about Hunter taking away his mate's privileges, and I knew that the news was supposed to make me happy, but for some reason, I was a lot more bothered by the fact that he had done that.I couldn't even explain exactly why I was bothered, but something just didn't feel right to me, and I couldn't be completely satisfied that he had only taken away her privilege.When I found out that she was thrown in prison, I was happy about it because I felt like keeping her in prison would mean that Hunter had no intention of paying attention to her, and I expected him to come to me and explain things to me, but he didn't even in

HunterA week later..."What is with that sore look on your face, little cousin?" Aurora's familiar voice asked from behind me, and I turned to look at her with a tired look on my face."Is it that obvious?" I asked."I could already tell from afar that you had a lot on your mind, and that's the main reason why I stopped to approach you. So, what's up with you, and why do you have that look on your face?" She asked with a hint of concern in her tone.I let out a frustrated sigh before tapping the space on the bench I was seated on, gesturing for her to take a seat.I had so much on my mind at the moment, but I needed to let it out and thought I needed to talk to somebody to gather my thoughts and also figure out what to do about the situation that I was in.I haven't spoken to Aurora about anything concerning my mate, and that is mainly because Aurora is usually never around and she and I only have very serious conversations once in a while."I'm pretty sure you've already heard this

Helene I panted heavily as I watched the chaos unfold right before my very eyes. Everything was going according to plan, and as much as it scared me that things could turn upside down in a split second, it still thrilled me to see how things would end eventually.The plan I had was simple. All I needed to do was provoke the beasts that already had their eyes on me, and then I made sure that I got into a messy fight with them so that I could end up getting injured. The injury isn't going to be serious, and it most probably won't be coming from them, but I intend to make them look like villains and make myself into a victim.I'm aware that the plan sounds ridiculous, and I'm also aware that if care isn't taken, I could end up getting into serious trouble, getting hurt in ways I didn't want, or even worse, getting killed.The people I was dealing with were experienced criminals, and I could have ended up making things difficult for myself by provoking them but judging by the scene I was

Brenda I paced around my mother's living room nervously as several thoughts clouded my mind.I received a call from Keisha about half an hour ago, and she informed me that a fight broke out in prison and that Hunter showed up as soon as he heard that his mate was involved in the fight and that she had gotten injured.The first thing that I felt as soon as she told me was a strong sense of betrayal and anger because I hated that he would be worried about her to the point where he would hurry over just because he heard she was in danger, and what made things worse for me was when she added that he had even carried her in his arms even though she was conscious enough to walk on her own.I haven't felt this upset in a very long time, and after getting off the call with Keisha, I could no longer hold back my anger and my frustration, and I just had to rush home to see my mother because she was the best person for me to bend to, and I also needed her to tell me what to do because I was get

Hunter I paced around the hallway impatiently as I waited for the doctors to come out and give me feedback on Helene's well-being.I decided to bring her to my quarters, and I even went as far as inviting the best doctors in the pack to come to check up on her, figure out the source of the injury on her head that kept bleeding, and also treat the deep knife wound on her arm.I originally planned on letting her be taken to the public infirmary to get treated. I suddenly had a change of mind when I remembered that the doctors might not be able to respond to her quickly, and I didn't want any more time to be wasted because she had already lost a lot of blood.Earlier, while I was bringing her here, I was trying hard not to show her that I was very worried about her because I didn't want to create a misunderstanding between us and make her think that I cared about her, but for some reason, I found myself being unable to hide my concern, and I said things to her that could have created sl
