Alex’s POVI watched her as she left and a troubled sigh left my lips. Nana suddenly came to my door and I moved back due to shock.“She looked very hurt and was crying. What did you do to my baby girl?” She asked me with a deep frown on her face.She has always adored Bertha at such a young age. People would mistake me as the friend and her as the grand daughter at times. It was really a good memory we could all think of.“I just told her the truth.” I said to grandma and she nodded with a sigh.“I told you that you should have told her when you both were teenagers. That would have been better. You are almost thirty now and she has been in love with you her whole life. How do you expect her to feel about it?” She asked me.“I know that what I did was wrong Nana. Don’t rub salt to my wounds.” I told her.“What wounds? The one that have wounds just left now.”“What do you think that I should do? She just said that I ruined a twenty five year old friendship. That means that she doesn’t
Alex’s POV“I am glad they both are mates you know.” I said to John and he looked shocked. I never spoke to him since he started working for me so he looked really suprised.“Why do you have such a shocked look on your face?” I asked him then laughed. I was such an ass to him when he first came.“It’s nothing Alpha. I am really glad that you like me.”’he said and I could only laugh.“I am also glad that they are mates. I heard that her punishment could be reduced because of that. Her mate is an official member of this pack and also very high in status so she can’t just be killed off or banished.” He said to me and I stared at him for quite some time.“Are you a spy?” I asked him and his mouth opened.“What…” he stuttered with fear in his eyes. It was just a joke but the fear in his eyes made me rethink that.I had to be very careful with everyone in the pack now.“I am outside of Sheira’s hospital door. When you both are done making out please come out because I want to speak to her.”
Sheira’s POVI broke into sobs as Alpha Alex left the room and Jacob wrapped his arm around me.“You did well.” He told me then kissed my forehead. I was nervous on how things were going to turn out. I liked and respected Alex a lot and I didn’t want him to hate me because of what I did.“Thanks for being my my side.” I told him with teary eyes and he nodded then gave me some water to drink.“I am your mate. Who else will be by your side if not me?” He teased me and I laughed.When Jasmine told me that my mate already accepted me to be his, I didn’t believe at all because no one ever wanted someone like me as a mate.I was more shocked when it turned out to be Jacob. He looked relaxed and happy while my face was full of shocked.He walked into the room after Jasmine left and my wolf spoke to me for the first time in years. I have never being that happy before. She kept jumping around and shouting mate! Mate!Jacob came to me and just hugged me. I was still too shocked to talk to him.
Sheira’s POVHe eventually went to talk to the pack’s doctor and I started packing my bags because I knew that I was going to get discharged. My xtray for my foot was all healed and maybe it’s because I am mated to a Beta or something.My healing process was very fast compared to how it was before. I was constantly updated by what was going around the pack by Emily so I knew what to expect once I leave this hospital.“She said you can go. The nurses will come give you your last shot and that’s it.” He stopped and laughed once he saw me with my bag already.“I am ready.” I told him.“You knew that you were going to be allowed to go home didn’t you?” He asked me and I nodded with a smile.“You naughty girl. You knew that I was going to kiss you.” He said and I giggled. I felt like a teenager in love all of a sudden.“So this is love…” I sang suddenly and we both bursted into laughter.Few minutes later, a nurse walked in with the injection in her hand. She put whatever inside then gav
Tyler’s POVI got another report that Emily and Mark where at eachother’s throat again. “What is their problem? Mark is being very irresponsible right now by engaging in a fight with her.” I told Emily’s maid that came to inform me.“What exactly happened?” I asked her.I saw her in the hallway earlier on bawling her eyes out with a hurt look in her face and I knew that she was Emily’s made so something was definitely not right.“I heard thing breaking in the Luna’s room.” She started and I hit the table loudly.She jumped from her seat and looked at me in fear. “Her name is Emily. What’s with the Luna?” I asked her.“She is the Luna of the pack, Alpha.” She spoke and I knew why Emily picked her. They both thought about things the same way.“Are you going to talk or keep arguing with me about my own Luna?” I asked the girl and she apologized“It’s just that you accepted her to be your Luna in front of everyone in the pack. Why are you denying her now? That’s not a pleasant thing to do
Tyler’s POV“Have you gotten anything about her yet?” I spoke to the person on the phone. I just got a message from one the men I sent and so I decided to call him.“Yes, we got her scent. She is alive Alpha. I am very sure of it.” He said and I smiled brightly. It felt like a huge load has been taken off my shoulders after he said that. I felt very good l.“But what? Give me some more good news.” I said with an annoyed look.“Something does not feel right Alpha. We found her scent in the middle of nowhere. It’s a very deep forest and we decided to check further closer to river but we only found the body of a rogue. The face was unrecognizable because the body has stayed there for some days now.” He said and my heat started beating fast.“It can’t be Jasmine right?” I asked him.“No, it’s not her. It’s a man. He also has a stab wound on his back. Do you think that it was Jasmine that killed him?”“It can’t be her. She didn’t have any training experience.” I said to him.“Are you sure
Emily's POVThe forest was dark and quiet as I walked, the trees looming overhead like silent private soldiers. The path ahead twisted and turned, disappearing into the shadows as I ventured deeper into the woods. Each step I took seemed to echo in the silence, the crunch of leaves and twigs underfoot the only sound in the still night. My heart pounded with a mix of fear and purpose. I had heard stories about the witch who lived deep in these woods, and now, I was about to meet her in person.Finally, I reached the clearing where the witch's cottage stood, its crumbling walls barely visible in the faint moonlight. A shiver ran down my spine as I approached, the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end like I was about to be struck by the lightning. The cottage was surrounded by tall trees, their branches reaching out like emaciated arms. The wind whispered through the leaves, creating strange and weird sounds that made me quicken my pace.The cottage looked so old, with moss and vi
Tyler’s POVTyler looked stricken, his face pale as he heard what Jasmine had said. “Jasmine, please don’t say that. I’m sorry. I just... I don’t want to lose you.” He stared at Alex in disgust, his emotions a whirlwind of regret and fear.Alex’s expression was equally pained. “Jasmine, I’m sorry too. I just wanted to protect you. I’ll back off if that’s what you need.”Jasmine nodded, feeling a sense of certainty wash over her. Alex was her choice. Throughout her pregnancy, he had been her rock, offering unwavering support and love. Tyler, despite being the father of her children, represented a tumultuous past she wished to move beyond. As she watched the tension between the two men dissolve, she sighed with relief, glad that her firm stance had prevented a further escalation.“Jasmine, I know I messed up,” Tyler continued, his voice softer now. “But I can’t bear the thought of losing my boys.”Tyler and Alex exchanged a long look, their anger melting into an uneasy understanding.
