170|Don't get involved

VINCE “Vince…”“Yes, Vince. That's my fucking name. What happened to my daughter, Elena?” I asked again. My tone was dry, resounding, and angry. Angrier when she struggled to get the explanations right. “She…I…we're not sure. It seems like allergies.”“Seems?” I couldn't believe my fucking ears. Is she being serious right now? “My daughter's lying lifeless, looking like a fucking mess, and you're not even sure what happened? Ain't you supposed to be her mother? A doctor too?”“Yes, I am. I'm her Mother and a doctor. But I'm freaking out too much, I can't risk it. We…we're waiting for Dr. Drake. He's yet to attend to her…”“Why the fuck didn't you call me?” “I…I…was gonna…”“When? After she dies? The fuck is wrong with you?!”“Vince…” Leonardo's pacifying voice behind me made me aware of his presence. But it didn't do shit to pacify me. “I…I…really was gonna call you. I was freaking out a lot. And…I wasn't sure how you'll take it.”“That wasn't for you to worry about. She's my daug

171|Impostor

VINCE “No, Vince, don't!” Leo caught me before I could take a step. “How dare you insult my family? You have no rights, Vince!” Richard was fuming and going off.“Leo, get off me!” I thundered, fighting to break out of his grip. I felt the wetness next to my lips. I touched it and it was blood. Hell, no. “Leo!”“Father, please stop.” Elena was holding his hand, crying. “Vince,” she looked at me. I held up a finger to my lips, shushing her up before she could even finish it. “At least not in front of your daughter…” she added between sobs. That part got to me. I nodded, breaking out of Leo's hold. “Let's finish this outside,” I stepped out first, waiting for them in the hallway. They came out—all three of them. I saw Leo coming to hold me again. I evaded him, pushed Elena aside, and landed a perfect punch to Richard's face. He staggered backwards. Leo caught my hand. I maneuvered out of his hold, charged towards Richard, and landed another punch on him. He hit the floor now. I d

172|Freak of nature

VINCE I watched as Miguel tied her up to a chair. They gagged her mouth, too, and she's been scowling at me. Something Anastasia would never do. It's been the most traumatic three years of my existence. And it's not just about Elena not being here with me. It's also about the fact that I shared my bedroom with a freak of nature. I've heard of dark magic. I've heard of how nasty they can be. I've heard tales of the wonders they do but I've never experienced it. Not this close. Until that morning I woke up with her by my side. The morning after Elena left. The same morning she could easily spot where Vanessa kept her favorite sheets. I would have easily brushed it off as a coincidence, but something irked me. I guessed that Vanessa had scouted her to come trick me. That was my genuine thought and suspicions, until I began noticing the freaky similarities of her mannerisms to Vanessa. So fucking identical, it left me shocked every damn time. Saying phrases that only Vanessa does. A

173|Hello, Father

VINCE Please forgive me…forgive me…forgive me, Anastasia.The words repeatedly rang in my head, leaving me even more perplexed. I was standing at a corner, nursing my bruised heart.The quiet whimpering in the room was from Vanessa. She was lying on the floor, with a half-burnt face. The stench of skinburn lingered in the air. Burning her face wasn't enough. I wanna kill her. But I can't. Not yet. But I will, that's the only way I won't feel this crippling sense of guilt. Please forgive me, Anastasia. I didn't know…I didn't know she died because of me. I didn't know. I moved on, got married, had a son, and shoved down every memory of her. I forgot about her when in reality, she died because of me!How…how do I handle that? My heart's about busting open. I'm feeling a new sense of grief. It's suffocating me. I wanna get on my knees and apologize to her. I wanna…I wanna hold her hands and beg her to forgive me. I wanna tell her that I never stopped loving her. And…and…that I was yo

174|Two conditions

VINCE It's been years since I heard his voice. It's been so long, you'd think I'd get a bit more unaffected by it. But I guess time doesn't really heal all wounds. Or maybe mine ran a little too deep; it'd need more than time to heal. In a second, every hurt he caused me resurfaced in my heart. Flashes of all the times we argued, all the times I battered his face with my fists, all the times we yelled at each other flashed through my eyes. And of course, the moment I declared that he wasn't my son anymore echoed in my ears. It could be the father-son bond, because why else would my whole nervous system get all riled up from just his voice? “Trent.” Every bitterness I felt echoed in my voice. He laughed grimly, and that lit up some insane fireworks in my head. “Been so long, Father. Did you miss me?” He asked, with a throaty chuckle. “Do we have the kinda relationship that requires me to miss you?” “We don't? I think we do. You used to be my Father, after all.”I didn't miss the

175|Twisted man

VINCE “I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna fucking kill him. Son of a bitch!” I gave one hell of an outburst, kicking the damn air. It wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. It wasn't nearly enough. I needed to vent. I needed to let out this rage; otherwise, it's going to consume me. I aimed for the wall and slammed my fist into it. The second time left a crack, the third one never hit because Leonardo stepped in, catching my arm.I was feeling the rage of the beast and the vicious hunger to tear someone apart. But I knew better than physically hurting Leonardo. So even though my nerves were jerking, my hand was still fisted and my teeth were hungrily gritted, I still forced myself to chill. Minutes later, I was reasonably calm. Richard kept glancing at me with a questioning gaze. “Trent already usurped your Pack and locked the entry with dark magic. You can't go back there,” I replied to the unasked questions in his eyes. He breathed out deeply, holding back his tears. “I can't believe he's

176|Got bloodier

ELENA The soft hue of light wafting through the blinds indicated it was already morning. Hours had passed and I didn't even notice. I was seated, holding Claire's hand and praying to the moon goddess all night. Not a wink of sleep; I stayed awake bawling my eyes out and muttering pleas to whichever deity cared enough to listen. My daughter's hands were beginning to feel lifeless. Her skin was getting paler. I'm not sure how much longer she can hold on. I fear she might be gone before Vince gets that antidote however he plans to. And if she leaves me, if she dîes, I might not know how to handle that pain. I might end up hating him for it and I don't want that. I don't want us to go through the traumatizing phase of hating and blaming each other again. I just wanna be happy and live with him and our daughter. That's all I want now, so please, save my daughter. Please keep her safe for us. For our love. For our sanity. Please. And of course, I didn't fail to pray for my family. Fat

177|What's the catch?

VINCE The thousand foot soldiers standing outside my main gate had altered the atmosphere of my Pack. The once serene ambiance I had going had morphed into something tense and shuddering. The stench of war was in the air. Every member of my Pack who wasn't part of the war was locked in their houses out of fear. Watching the army from my balcony window made them look really dwarfish, but a lot. Pulling this many men for a war I wasn't sure of winning had to be the most reckless shit I've ever done. I didn't even have a core plan on how to win this. I was considering two options: either charging into Richard's Pack, where I'm sure I can find Trent, or attacking his army at the conquered Packs and taking those back first. Both plans had their downside. If I charged into Richard Pack, my men would be at risk of being burned to ashes. If I go after the conquered Packs, I could lose many men at that attack and I wouldn't have enough to directly go after Trent later on. So yeah, I'm st

178|Gone missing

VINCE “I'll count to 3. If you don't tell me the truth, you'll be a fucking barbecue for my men. They don't mind. They eat flesh, any flesh. They're almost barbarians at this point.”She began whimpering. I already lost my patience so the sound and sight of it was infuriating me even more. “3…”“Vince, c'mon. Maybe she's not lying.” Luke said but I didn't pay him any bit of attention. I'm the one who lived with this two-faced witch for two decades. If I can't tell when she's lying, then I'm the most idiotic man ever. “2…!”“Please…” she sobbed. “Vince, please, that's enough.” This time it was Richard. “Luke, go get me Miguel,” I said swiftly. “He has good grilling skills.”“Declan!” Vanessa blurted out, overshadowing my words. I froze. Did I hear that right? “Wait, what Declan?” Luke asked. I knew just one Declan. And to God, it's not him. I really do hope it's not him. “Declan…the rogue prince.”It is him. What in the actual ghost is happening right now?“Prince Declan?” Lu

179|Lion's den

ELENA I stepped on another twig and it snapped. I was getting closer to the underground path that led into my Father's Pack. When Trent had requested that I come here, to the secret passageway of my Father's Pack, I wasn't confused about its existence because Father had shown it to me when I clocked 18. It was a secret passageway that led in and out of our Pack. It was also a quicker exit during an emergency. No one else should know of its existence except the members of the royal family and a few of Father's confidantes. So yeah, it made sense that I knew about it but it didn't make sense that Trent knew about it. Well, except you add the possibility that Tracy told him about it. Because she knows. I stepped out of the thicker parts of the forest and could finally see the cleared path leading to the passageway's entry. But there was an army of rogues standing in front of it. My breathing grew unsteady when they all saw me. Why does it feel like I'm about to have a panic attack
