The only thing she hoped for was to do the right thing because she felt so different.Rita came over to the hospital to see Isabelle almost all the time. Rita supported Isabelle to walk again gradually. And they grew closer to each other again. Rita also showed Isabelle a picture of Dominic.

Jasmine's POVThis wasn't marriage, rather it was the definition of pure hell and bondage.I sat around the dinner table and watched as the clock ticked away, the wildlife outside sang comforting words to me, but the pain in my heart could not be cured.2 am and he wasn't yet back, I couldn't help but worry as I was certain he left with no guards, I hated the fact that I was worried.Bonded to him by the goddess, married to him as a debt meant to be repaid when I give him a child, my heart longed for him as much as I hated him.For some reason tonight, I didn't want this routine of waiting up, I desperately wanted to forget.I dragged myself up to the wine cellar and picked up wine with the highest amount of wolfsbane to get me drunk.My hands found my phone and I dialed his number before stopping, calling the Alpha was useless because the only thing I'd get in return would be insulted as always.It's only been a year since I was sold off to a mate who treated me no less than a rag, a
Jasmine POV“What the…” I heard Tyler grunt as his naked back came in contact with my cold skin, causing me to flinch.He muttered some inaudible things before letting out a soft sigh, and I released the breath I was holding.I spent last night soaking the pillows with tears and had little sleep as my hysteria was over the top because he had his arms around me throughout the night.Never had I shed so many tears in my life, but they just couldn't stop flowing and to top it all, in between my legs ached.“Hmm, I could get used to this” he whispered groggily before pulling my naked self closer to him and I felt my cheeks redden to my displeasure.Worry that had once clouded my thoughts dispersed into thin air as his grip tightened around my waist.“You had refused me yesterday but here you are, baby girl in my arms, I did say I was irresistible” he whispered, tracing kisses on my neck.“Emily baby, how….”I jerked away from him in shock and watched as his eyes widened upon using his but
Alpha Tyler's POVOne thing I hated was not being in control and the only way I had maintained my position as an Alpha all these while was by feeding off the power, control gave me.Jasmine was making me lose all restraints in a blink of an eye and making me act out, which was very much unlike me.I did it successfully, pretended like she didn't exist, like she wasn’t my Luna, and I wasn’t seeing what they do to her for a year.The plan was to wear her out, but she seemed so strong until she played her master card last night.Waking up to see her blood and having no memory of what had happened triggered and angered me. For a second, I felt like I wasn’t in control and It turned on all the wrong emotions. Her silence and pretense gave her motives away a long time ago, but never had I imagined that she’d be this devious.It seemed as though a switch was pulled overnight, from seducing me shamelessly to bullying Emily, definitely in a jealous rage.I shut my thoughts as her soft voice h
Jasmine's POVIts been two weeks since I left and, all I had done was play an amusing the game of hide and seek with Alpha Tyler's guards. Funny how insecure the borders of the pack were on the night I had fled and a few days later, I was being hunted as though I left with something important.The willpower they were using to track me down was surprising and frustrating. It made my simple plan of running and settling in any pack I was accepted hard because I had to keep changing location constantly.To make things worse for me, I felt my body system change drastically, almost as though I had caught a fever alongside the way, but my determination not to return kept me going. A few times my curiosity got the most of me and I lingered around trying to get any information that would make me understand why he was after me. There was no way he was in regret, rather I was sure he wanted me back so he could punish me for taking a leap of faith. As the days passed, whatever illness I was do
Jasmine’s POVI felt the sun glaring on my face and I turned to my side painfully. “You are awake.” an unfamiliar voice said in the background. My eyes were still shut so I didn't know where I was. All I knew was that it was unfamiliar and it wasn't the pack that I just ran out from.“Where could this be? Could I have ran into another trap?” I asked myself in fear and suddenly remembered what I heard before I passed out.I could clearly hear someone calling me mate. It might have been a mistake though. I was already weak and losing my mind so I must have misheard it. I just left a toxic pack, mate and husband and the moon goddess will give me another mate immediately? That's not possible.I tried every means to convince myself that it wasn't but I was interrupted when my eyes was opened gently and a touch was shone inside my eyes.“You seem okay. Why don't you open your eyes and sit up now? You don't have to be scared. You are safe.” the female doctor to me softly but I didn't do it
Jasmine’s POV“I understand that you are confused right now but don't you think that it's quite appalling to talk to me in that manner?” Alex asked me and I looked down .I left my tongue slip and forgot that I was in his pack and not the other way around. “I am sorry about that. I was just shocked.” I apologized.“That’s fine. I won’t be rejecting you. You need to get that thought out of your head first.” He said to me and i clenched my fist on thr sheets on the bed tightly. The nurse looked at my hand but said nothing. She looked at me in pity and I hated that.“Leave us alone.” He said to the nurse at once when he noticed that she wasn’t making any move to leave us alone.She left and it was just us in the room. I looked everywhere but him and he sat on the chair beside my bed.“You are my mate.” He said to me softly this time around.“I am pregnant Alpha.” I said to him.“Call me Alex not Alpha.” He said to me.“Let’s leave that. Do you really want raise another man’s child? You m
Alex’s POV I let her be and went to the pack house to confirm if my suspiciouns were true. I wouldn't just let anyone into my pack like that. Even if she is my mate it not. The door to my office opened and my Beta walked inside. “Alpha you called for me” James said to me and I motioned for him to sit down and he did. “You must have heard by now that I brought a girl to the pack.” I said to him and he nodded with a smile. “It was foreign since you have not done that before but I trust you. Is there something you want to tell me?” he asked me. “That's my mate. She is my mate. After waiting for her for quite a long time, she was served to me in a platter of gold.” I said to him. “I wouldn't say that. She looked almost dead to me.” he said to me and I glared at him playfully. “You want to know if she is a spy or not right?” he asked me and I nodded. There was no need explaining everything to James. He was very quick to catch onto something. “She doesn't even want to be my mate.” I
