Helena’s P.O.V. “Welcome, love!” A chilling silence descended upon the room as his words hung in the air, the massive figure of my new boss was lying on my small bed. A teasing smile appeared on his face as he clutched a pillow to his chest. “You are late, love!” My heart thundered, a blistering rage flared through me, like a volcano rumbling, ready to burst any minute. The fear and the threat I was feeling was now changed into anger. I hardly suppressed my urge to tear his lips apart for that treacherous smile and hissed back at him. “How dare you! What are you doing in my room?” He just raised his brow in response, challenging my self-control with a smile dancing in his amber orbs. I took a cautious step towards him; the vial of wolfs-bane was ready in my hand. “You have ten seconds to leave, Mr. Anderson! Otherwise, I’ll call the police.” “It’s Carver! My good name is Carver and I prefer to be called by my name.” With amused expressions, he rose from his spot. I gulped

Helena’s P.O.V.“Sod off, Mr. Anderson. Don’t ask for trouble.”My frantic heartbeat must have been audible to that lycan, but I put up my brave face and countered his attack. It would be stupid to give in to his temptation, a person like Carver wasn’t a man to take seriously.Even as a single mom, I had to deal with plenty of over-confident suitors, as my brother Liam was adamant about marrying me off to a human. Phew!He didn’t know that I was immune to these charms now. A smile as bright as winter’s morning stretched Carver’s lips, he bit his lower lip gently.“Feisty, I like it!”He freed my wrists and stepped away; the sting of extreme heat had reddened my skin. I was running my fingers over those bruises while Carver dragged a chair and sat on it leisurely. “Why are you so pissed off at me, love? I was expecting a different outcome from you.”“A different outcome? What do you mean by it?”I sneered, completely disregarding his shocked face. “Last night, you deliber

Helena’s P.O.V.Have you ever underestimated something in your life, only to be badly disappointed by it?Or experienced any unfair treatment of your family just because of an outsider you never liked?I’m certain that you must have faced such terrible circumstances once in your life where you have to put a smile on your face to endure that unwanted presence. The one you never wished to see in your personal or professional life.This emotion was my daily guest in the previous five days. My precious brother had decided to side with the most annoying person breathing on the planet Earth named: Carver Anderson. Liam was staying with me after that night’s incident; whereas, my little angels were at Skylar’s house, leaving me completely on Liam’s mercy. “Carson is also a wolf-less rogue like us, sister.” “His history isn’t different from ours. He is a nice man, sister!”“When will we invite him for dinner, sister? We should thank him well for his favor!”Last but not least, he

Zayden’s P.O.V. “Faster, you snail!” My alpha command resonated in the practice ground, hastening Beta Alex’s dying steps. Currently, he was completing 90th lapse, sixty more were yet to be done. Instead of paying attention to his task, he stopped in front of me, and landed on the ground, baring his neck in submission. “Mercy! Please have some mercy, Alpha.” I scoffed at his plea; he should have considered the consequences of offending his Alpha. “Was your punishment not enough, Alex?” Alex’s eyes widened as he wiped the stream of sweat flowing on his face, his voice was shakier than before. “Please, Alpha. I am innocent. The rogues were the real culprits in this case. They killed the entire pack heartlessly.” What a dumb wolf! Even after this tough punishment, he was clueless of the main issue. I wished to punch him to knock some sense in his brain. “It’s not about the Blue Moon pack, idiot. I am not interested in pursuing the case against Helena.” My stupid buddy was unde

Helena’s P.O.V.“Helena Ellsworth?”My query for Liam was responded by that wretched addition to my name, it left a sour taste in my mouth. From the day I left the Moon Howlers Pack, no one had called me by this name. I wondered who dug into my past and hurt my brother like this. As Liam’s condition overpowered my logic and reasoning temporarily, I didn’t pay any heed to anything else and rushed towards him.“I’m here, Liam. Don’t worry.”However, the fear etched on his face told me a different story, his voice quivered like a dried leaf.“Sister!He-He is back!”Comforting him, I hurriedly tried to untie my brother and asked. “Who?”Still, I couldn’t decipher the source of his vexation, as the first thought that came to my mind was being robbed. This free district was famous for thugs and burglars. Scenes like being tied after losing your money were pretty common. After untying his ropes, I cupped my brother’s face in my hands to calm him. I was about to ask him for fur
