POV Alpha LukeThe sounds of battle still echoed in my mind as I gradually emerged from my frenzy. The fog was clearing, and I could feel the pulsating power in my veins. However, a nearby conversation drew my attention back to reality."I will kill him; get out of my way!" Ethan uttered threatening words, a promise of my ultimate destruction so that he could fulfill his plans with Lily. His tone was laden with hatred and determination, and an urgent sense of danger surrounded me.Lily, amidst panic, screamed, begging him to stop. I was trapped in this darkness, unable to intervene."PLEASE, DON'T DO THIS; I WON'T ALLOW YOU TO KILL HIM!" LILY IMPLORED, STEPPING IN FRONT TO PROTECT ME.But the moment her cries echoed in my ears, an uncontrollable force propelled me back to consciousness.My eyes opened, and the dark scene gained clarity. Without hesitation, my energy focused on a swift movement. With a precise strike, I reached Ethan, lifting him by the throat. His eyes widened, desper
POV LilyI could hardly believe what was happening. I fell to the ground wounded, my body covered in blood and a few scratches, the supreme alpha’s eyes constantly piercing me as if he was about to take my life.“What do you intend to do?” I asked, frightened, seeing his serious and evil expression.“I’m going to give you the worst possible punishment, and you’ll regret betraying me!” he said firmly, his teeth clenched.I could hear his wolf growl and within a few seconds the beast awoke, dark hairs sprouted from its skin and I could see its face elongate into a snout, its bones split and formed four paws, and a huge, dark wolf appeared in front of me about making a huge catastrophe.“Please, let me explain. Don’t do what you’re about to do. We can change this!” I begged, trying to change his mind, but it was too late.He walked towards the pack and roared absurdly, calling the soldiers and his beta. With brutality, he led the army of a few men who could exterminate an entire pack ful
**POV Lily**I opened my eyes and found myself in a chaotic scene. The smell of smoke permeated the air, and the distant noise of something burning echoed in my ears. Initially, everything was confusing, but reality quickly asserted itself: we were in the middle of the woods, and Caroline was beside me, injured and covered in dust.My fingers delicately caressed the little one's face, and she coughed, still dazed from the smoke she had inhaled. Her innocent voice, filled with concern, called for dad and mom, even with her eyes closed. A wave of compassion enveloped me as I sensed the worry in her fragile voice."Calm down, Caroline. We're here together. Everything will be okay," I murmured, trying to convey some calmness. She opened her eyes, and her expression of confusion and fear broke my heart."Where are daddy and mommy?" she asked, looking around.My heart tightened, knowing there was no easy answer. I embraced her, trying to offer some comfort. The challenge of protecting her i
**POV Alpha Luke**The scene before me was one of devastation, with wreckage and ashes bearing witness to the ferocity of the fire that had consumed the pack. My beta, with a mournful expression, delivered the news I feared: Lily had disappeared, and the carnage in the village was overwhelming. The attentive gaze of my beta reflected the mourning of the pack as he mentioned the likelihood of Lily not surviving the dense smoke.I surveyed the wreckage around me, contemplating the uncertainty of Lily's fate. With a calm demeanor that masked the pain, I asked my beta if he was sure she had escaped. He confirmed, but the information was a vague consolation in the face of the loss of many of our members in this battle."How many people from the other pack died?" I asked seriously, inquiring if their losses were greater than ours."I believe almost all of them. Those who tried to escape through the forest are injured and won't survive long in the wild... and Lily's sister and her parents' b
"Ai!" Olivia groaned in pain, holding her stomach with her hands. The contractions were intense, and she didn't know how much longer she could endure. "Get water and bring the medicine, quickly!" she impatiently shouted to her maid.The young maid, frightened, quickly prepared the yellowish liquid tonic and handed it to Olivia, who swallowed it in one gulp, pinching her nose to avoid the bitter taste."What you're doing is very dangerous!" Clara warned as she entered the room and found her friend in such a situation."Don't talk nonsense. I just need to hold on a few more days so no one suspects anything," Olivia replied, closing her eyes and trying to contain the pain."You're doing everything to delay the birth. This can lead to complications for the child. Don't you think about your son?" Clara asked indignantly."If I don't do this, he will die anyway, and I won't be able to stop it," Olivia swallowed hard, nervous."You're nine months pregnant. You won't be able to hold this for
**Lily's Point of View**I woke up startled, completely disoriented. The room was all white, and I was surrounded by strange devices. Instinctively, I began tearing off the wires attached to me, my body freeing itself from this metallic web."Caroline?" I shouted, my voice echoing in the room. No response.Panic overtook me when I realized I was alone, with no sign of Caroline nearby. I continued tearing off the wires, trying to understand what the hell was happening."Caroline?" I called again, louder this time. The silence persisted, and the urgency to find my mate only grew.Awkwardly, I headed towards the door and entered a white corridor with lined doors. Each step was uncertain, but I needed to find Caroline. I opened doors one by one, but nothing. The corridor seemed endless, and the anxiety grew.The search continued, my mind struggling to understand the situation. I just wanted to find Caroline and get out of this strange place. Every room I opened brought more confusion, but
"I can't bear it any longer!" exclaimed Olivia, her hands clutching her stomach with an expression of anguish. A groan of pain escaped her lips, and the room seemed to tense up instantly.Suddenly, Olivia felt liquid trickling down her legs. Her eyes widened, fixating on the wet floor. Clara, beside her, panicked as she realized what was happening."The water broke! Olivia, you're about to have the baby!" shouted Clara, her voice echoing through the room. Desperation took hold of the atmosphere.The maids rushed to help, guiding Olivia to the bed urgently. Clara held her friend's hand, trying to convey support amid the anxiety hanging in the air. One of the maids ran off, determined to fetch the doctor and alert the alpha about the imminent arrival of the baby.The room filled with Olivia's screams of pain, echoing through the halls of the residence. Clara, with a worried expression, kept a steady gaze on her friend, sharing the weight of the tense moment.While the maids prepared the
Pov Lily BrowsI lay on the hospital bed, watching the nurse finish dressing my wounds, evidence of the brutal attack I had endured still visible on my body. The pain was gradually subsiding, but the news the doctor delivered about my pregnancy lingered in my mind."Miss Brows, here are the forms you need to fill out. They contain information for the baby's monitoring," the nurse said, handing me a clipboard.As I filled in the details, thoughts of the future and the responsibility of motherhood weighed on me. The doctor emphasized the importance of returning for regular check-ups, and I was determined to ensure everything went smoothly.However, the hopeful atmosphere crumbled when the nurse handed me a sheet of paper. I looked at the document, and my heart raced as I read the prominently displayed amount: twelve thousand dollars. My eyes widened, and a shockwave ran through my body."What is this?" I asked, scarcely believing what I was seeing. The nurse shrugged indifferently, as i
