Hmm…I smell drama👀 Leticia isn’t just going to leave, is she? And Eudora as bait? Will they really capture our mysterious rogue this way?
EUDORA. Since our last encounter, I’ve been wary of the Alpha. The promises of what he would do to me excited and scared me at the same time and the only way to keep my emotions from overwhelming me was avoiding him. Thankfully, he seemed really busy and everything seemed to return to the way it used to be quicker than I expected after everything that has happened in the past week. The only thing that wasn’t the same anymore was my heart as well as my relationship with my only friend. I wasn’t even sure if I could call her that anymore. Zena hasn’t said more than a word to me since our first big fight. When our paths meet around the house, I either get a nod of the head of a simple “hey” as she retires back into her room. But even before that, running into each other always sends some sort of shocking signal throughout my entire body. Awkward wasn’t the kind of feeling I was supposed to have with Zena around but that was the exact feeling each time we suddenly ran into each other
L’s POV•••One would think one good turn in your life means everything will suddenly begin to go well. One good fortune and you think you have the entire world under your feet so instead of getting crushed under the heavy weight of the world, you are rather standing on it, strong and resilient, knowing you survived. But it never really ends, does it? Because even when you are on top of the world, you can always fall. No wind is too small to throw you down and your greatest fear should be not being able to stand again after you fall.***Things changed. It was clear they would after what had happened. The news spread faster than lightning. Of course, it was just the one of me being taken by not just anyone but by the son of the Alpha and the future Alpha of the pack and not about us being mates.No one could ever find that out. I still remember Maximilian’s strong warning that night. “All you have to do is stay still. Don’t do anything. I will do everything for us, I will fight
L’s POV•••If we thought the worst thing that could happen to us was his parents finding out about us, we were wrong. Things could get a lot worse than that and it did. It all went down from the moment Maximilian stepped in between his mother and I without thinking. I couldn’t blame him because I knew he was only trying to protect me just like he promised. I could only blame the world that did this to us. That didn’t give us a chance to love each other on our own terms but through the circumstances around us.“You don’t mean that.” His mother was finally able to say after it seemed like forever since he made the groundbreaking announcement. With his hand still holding mine firmly, he faced his mother defiantly, “It’s a mate bond, mother. I don’t have to mean it. You just have to open your eyes and see it.” I’ve never seen Luna Trisha so distraught. I never even thought she was capable of any other feeling other than the one every one of us has come to know but I witnessed it firs

L’s POV.•••Mason. My very motivation had come to me and even though my legs were weak, I willed them to pull me up so I could go to my brother. When they failed, I crawled on all fours, tears spilling out of my eyes despite the smile that was beginning to form on my lips at the sight of him. My hoarse voice sent soft weak words out my chapped lips as Mason also went on to kneel to meet my height.“Mason.” I wish he didn’t have to see me this way—broken and barely clinging on to life. If I didn’t miss him so much that it hurt, I would have turned him away from me so that his innocence will remain the same, that’s if the monster who did this to us hasn’t tainted it yet. I think it was that fear that made me hold on to my brother instead of turning him away. If Mason was hurting and broken like me, I had to know. I had to fix it before he’s past repair.“Luna.” He was heaving, breaking down in tears as soon as he took full sight of me. While he cried, my hands roamed him—from his
EUDORA.I threw up. And if I had gotten to the bathroom a second later, the contents of my stomach that were now swirling in the water closet would have ended up on my bed instead. I was bent over the toilet seat, assisting my weight with my hands that gripped both sides of the seat tightly while I tried to catch my breath.Moments after I was sure there was no need for me to remain in there, I flushed the toilet and watched the last of the nasty content disappear while my mouth still bore the taste and a stinging reminder of why I threw up in the first place.At the wash hand basin, I splashed water all over my face and also took some in my mouth to cleanse it. With dread, I returned back into my room, taking ginger steps like I was an intruder there. It was just where I left it on my bed—the Journal. From a distance, it looked even more ominous than it did on the first night I found it buried under all that dirt. More ominous than it did a few minutes ago when I hadn’t read the se
ALPHA REX.For the first time since I became the Alpha, I never thought I’d willingly attend an Alpha meeting without being summoned or in this case, I never thought I would actually be the one to summon Alphas for a meeting. I watched with unenthusiastic interest as more Alphas filed into the hall. The lack of interest is mutual as the disapproving looks they sent my way showed. I was aware of the moment Alpha Raule arrived as well as the Alpha of the Blucoven pack and his shit face son. It irked me to be in the same space as them both for the next hour or so, but pretty boy’s crooked nose from our last encounter should help me see this through. That too, and the maddening need to protect what was mine. I summoned them all and that made me the presiding Alpha. “You better have a good reason for summoning everyone here.” My attention was drawn to Alpha Theo, the one who had presided over the meeting in his pack days ago. Of course, today’s meeting was also being held in his pack.
EUDORA. I shimmered like a thousand stars courtesy of the sequins sewn onto the blue halter neck dress that I was wearing. The same one Alpha Rex got me out of the blue sometime this past week. If there was one thing I’ve learnt since coming here, it was to never question what goes on in the Alpha's head. And so until he drove me to a dressmaker, had me try on this itchy yet beautiful piece of clothing, ogled me like something he wanted to unravel layers and layers of—while also having me squirming so hard under that intense look in his eyes—and drove us back home without a word; I asked no questions.The only thing Alpha Rex said to me was to go on with my usual routine until he sends for me. Since my usual routine wasn’t so usual anymore without Zena, I descended into a deep pit of worry, thinking of all the reasons the Alpha got me something as beautiful as this. Then today, he told me to put on this dress. As I stood and stared at myself in the mirror. It was so beautiful that
