Chapter 103 Sansa's Pov As Adam approached me warily, I kept saying, "It's not my blood; Bella was attempting to do something stupid."Adam gently grasped my hand and grabbed a handkerchief from his pocket, his face filled with concern. "You need to take care of yourself first," he chastised quietly as he gently cleaned the blood off my forearm. It was then that I realized I'd harmed myself while battling Bella, but the blood wasn't mine."We all want you to be healthy, you're the most loved member of the pack," he said as he wrapped the handkerchief around my arm.I said, "Thank you for saving my life from a wild creature back in the bush," and I exhibited the treated wound wrapped in his handkerchief, "For that." "We should be thanking you," said Adam with a grin. "You came to our aid just in time. I doubt Xavier is appreciative since he was one second away from death.""What do you mean?" I inquired, perplexed."He was there when wild monsters leaped on him, just an inch away fr
Chapter 104 The mood in the room was tense and charged with emotion. I stood outside, seeing Xavier in an unusually vulnerable state. His tears streamed freely, and my heart swung back and forth between pity and bitterness.As Elodie feverishly tried to save Levine, her magical chanting filled the air. Despite her efforts, the outcome was bleak. My father's lifeless body flashed before my eyes, and the agony of loss resurfaced, forcing me to relive that terrifying moment.Tears flowed down my cheeks, and I struggled to keep them under control. The sight of Xavier crying elicited contradictory emotions in me. I detested him for everything he had done to me, yet witnessing him suffer stirred my long-buried affection.Elodie's remarks pierced the gloomy air, foreshadowing Levine's waking. "He will wake up soon."When his brother was saved, Xavier remained still, as if stunned by the mental storm. "Well done; now it's your turn to accept your price," he said, a tear coming from his eye.
Chapter 105"You will," he said firmly, even though he always wanted me to give up.His constant efforts to break me were wearing me down, leaving me weak despite my best efforts to appear powerful in his company.As the sound of Elodie's approaching footsteps aroused Xavier, I remained in the cell with Vera. She was casting spells that rendered Felix and Marina asleep and concealed their activities from curious eyes."I think we can discuss now in peace," said Elodie, turning to face Xavier on her right, who was slightly to her left."I am right here on your left side," said Xavier to Elodie, when she was too far away to notice his direction. "How are you doing, Hina?" Or should I call you Vera?" mocked Elodie."I'm better than you, at least I don't swallow the innocent's soul," answered Vera defiantly.Soul? The word grabbed my interest, and I noticed Xavier staring at me quietly. Though he tried to hide it, his eyes were filled with despair and anxiety. However, I could see the exp

Chapter 1 My face pressed against the damp, muddy earth, my fingers plunging deep into the mire, I found myself in a desperate situation. The monster who had my leg in his grip possessed strength far above my desire to flee. Despite my sadness, a spark of resolve burned within me, prompting me to resist. I managed to flip onto my back by twisting my body with all my power, taking advantage of the chance to toss handfuls of muck at his face, temporarily disorienting him.The stakes were enormous, and my life was on the line. There was little chance of survival, and I didn't have time to catch my breath or seek relief. I was racing against the unrelenting passage of time, straining my weary legs to carry me along the perilous path in quest of a haven.I propelled myself forward, pushing through the murky waters, and navigating the hazardous terrain covered with the wreckage of the rainstorm. Though my body screamed in pain, I continued, seeking safety behind the shade of a gigantic tre
Chapter 2 As I returned to the mansion with Adam and Edward, the pack's home where the rest of our kind lived, I encountered a hostile environment.Ruth Lane, the silver-haired woman with a heart as cold as ice, grasped my neck in a vicious hold, her desire to kill me. Ruth had always had feelings for Levine, but her desire to spend the night with him had gone unfulfilled since he had never given her the opportunity. In her view, I was nothing more than a threat."I will end you," Ruth screamed, her rage boiling over."Show some restraint, at least until the truth is revealed," said Adam, moving quickly to keep her at bay."There's nothing left to uncover when everyone already knows the truth," said Ruth, her tone mocking.Ruth was not alone in her hatred. Other pack members glared at me with venom, their gazes like scorching arrows searing my heart. I could only avert my gaze, avoiding any type of eye contact with the gathered crowd. As the crowd gathered, Adam stepped forward, putti
Chapter 3 I made my way towards the designated area where the accused stood, guided by the Omegas, and entered the courtroom filled with the entire pack. The air was thick with suspense and judgment, and the tension was apparent.The judge's seat was taken by Xavier Ronan, the Alpha of the Oak Pack, who was dressed in a deep brown cloak. Despite his youth, he radiated authority and leadership. Aside from him, another judge named Leia Gamora piqued my interest. She appeared to be around thirty years old, with her blond short hair, golden brown brows, and pale skin.I was unprepared to face my husband, the guy who professed love for me, seated as the judge presiding over the trial that would determine my destiny under the Oak Pack's statutes.Xavier arrived, his cloak wrapped over my cold figure. It protected me from the pack's probing eyes, which could see through the tiny gown that barely covered me. Many were surprised and upset by his actions because they had expected him to treat m
Chapter 4 I lay on the chilly floor of the poorly lighted dungeon, encircled by my thoughts and the weight of a broken heart. The pack members' heated protests pierced the air as their voices rebounded through the walls. To keep my sanity, I concentrated on filtering out the angry voices, instead of delving into the depths of my psyche.I did not know how the other day had arrived so quickly; I felt someone's presence in my half-sleep; if that person wanted to harm me, he would have done it sooner; why did the person take a risk to come by?A soft creaking sound entered my ears, jolting my frozen body awake. I struggled to catch a glimpse of the stranger before he vanished into the darkness, my vision fuzzy.My attention was drawn to the door for a brief moment, and my interest peaked. I rose slowly, ignoring the throbbing anguish in my damaged body. My actions were led by determination as I approached the door with caution, opening it slowly and deliberately, aware of the creaking so
