AUTHOR'S POV" Don't attempt to run away!" Anita screamed at Conan.I don't know what they were arguing about, but I was sure that it was certainly about the wedding."What can you do to stop me?" Conan asked. " You know too well." Anita replied." I have agreed to go on with the marriage not because I don't know what to do, I only do not want you to get hurt." He said." That's so kind of you." She replied. Amara continued eavesdropping to hear where this conversation was heading to." Why don't you state what you truly want?" Anita asked. "And quit the pretence." She said."Is that so?" Conan replied. "What is the assurance that I'll get my request?" He replied, and I listened. Whatever they were saying wasn't making sense because Amara was not informed that they had a bargain." Let's hear it. As long as it doesn't concern that Amara." She replied." I want the wedding to be small. A minimum of a hundred guests." Conan said, and Anita went silent." Is that it?" She asked, notic

Nolan's POVI kept on running, though my legs were killing me. I couldn't stop running. Adrenaline pumped through me as I focused.I sustained injuries from the blades of the grass. But I continued running. If Anita catches me, I will be minced meat. There is no way of escape anymore. I ran until I passed out.A drum of water dumped on my head caused me to jolt upright.When I opened my eyes, I saw myself in unfamiliar territory."Who are you?" A fierce guard asked me. I was scared. Had Anita's minions gotten a hold of me?"My name is Nolan." I didn't add that I came from the Blood Moon pack. Who knows if they knew Anita or have been looking for ways to trap her?"I was kidnapped by some bandits." I added."This man looks familiar." Another guard said, trying to place my face.I hoped that it was a good recognition."What pack are you from?" He inquired, and I stalled."What pack are you from?" He repeated, and I refused to answer."He looks like a rogue." The second guard picked me u

AUTHOR'S POVAnita let out a little nervous laughter at his statement."That's very correct. It's not easy to forget anyone who is after your life." I replied."I think your party is great." Damini said, and he gulped down his drink.Anita stared at him; he wouldn't know what hit him."Thank you." She replied and went on to interact with other Alphas, making small talk here and there.Diana walked up to her father. "Why are you behaving strangely?" He asked."Nothing," she replied."Were you able to get the dress that Anita said you were waiting for?" He asked."Which dress?" She inquired, and she was very surprised."Anita said that you postponed the wedding because you had not gotten the perfect dress for your big day." Her father continued. He felt something was off about her."I assure you that nothing of the sort happened. I have been in the hospital for the longest time I can remember." She said that, and he was shaken.Diana saw the surprise on her father's face when she told h

AUTHOR'S POV Amara hid all the pieces of evidence she had. Diana had been arriving and leaving frequently, and Anita noticed her indifference whenever marriage was mentioned."Don't you want to get married anymore?" Anita asked her on one of her visits."I want to," Diana answered back."II can't wait for you to be baroness," Anita said, noticing that she wasn't geared up. The light had gone out of her eyes."What is wrong with you?" She asked."Nothing, your highness. The doctor said I have to recover fully before thinking about anything." She said. Anita couldn't say anything about it.Diana has been rumored not to eat anything in the pack house."You haven't been eating. I hope you're alright?" Anita asked, and Diana regarded her coolly. "I have been asked to be careful about poisoning." She replied, and Anita knew she was referring to her."Why don't you come out straight? You spent more than six months here; why is poisoning coming up now?" She asked."You drugged me and expect
