SUNSHINE: If it was not a sin to kill, I had long since killed Knoxx. Who wouldn't be tempted? He was still the most infuriating man I ever saw. And now I was going to be stuck with him?"Why don't you try to talk to Brody? Sign a peace treaty with him so that this will be done. I am already sick of seeing you every day."His face turned blank. "That's not that simple.""It is to me. You're just making everything complicated. Give in to their demands. Give them a position in the pack. You have to remember that that was the reason why we are here. Consult them. Why don't you use your brain, Knoxx?"If he had no plans of returning, well I had. I had no issues staying here regardless of the poor condition of the place. But the people surrounding me were another discussion. "If someone is not using their brain, it is you."I pointed my hands at myself and looked at him in disbelief. "Me? Why would it be me? Who between us is not doing anything to talk to Brody and his men? Who between u

SUNSHINE: I shivered every now and then when the lightning flashed in the sky. I looked like a chick currently hatched with no hen to warm her up.Before I could reach the headquarters, I was already wet and if I continued, I might get sick or worse, get carried away by the flood. The ground was replaced with pools of water reaching my knees. Did I regret coming here? Partly. Teeth clattering, I regretted not staying. If I had not only followed my pride, I would be warm at Dante's house sipping a cup of chocolate. If there was.Good job for endangering yourself, Sunshine. Your stepbrother was already laughing at you by now. That was why I refused to return there. Hugging myself, I watched the surroundings. Now what?Almost all the house's windows and doors were shut as if they were scared I might knock on their doorstep and ask for their help.What was wrong with these people? Were we the villains here? No, we were not. My gaze shifted to where Dante's house was located.If I w

SUNSHINE:Knoxx and I had a staring contest. No one wanted to break down the stare. ‘Don’t test my patience, Sunshine. You won’t like it.’‘Oh, please. I already know how you turn into a monster when you get mad. You use your brothers to inflict pain. Emotionally.’My stepbrothers had not hurt me physically, but they sure had hurt me using their words. It only stopped when Knoxx was put into the position as an alpha. But occasionally, the other brothers would have their fair share of fun when they saw me alone. Those were also the times when I thought it was better to stay outside the pack and be with Jericho than face my evil step-brothers. Everything was behind Alpha Ezra’s back.Now that I realized it, my stepbrothers were bunched with cowards ganging up on a weak woman like me. "I won't be leaving this place. I like it here," I said out loud. “You cannot force me, Alpha Knoxx.” Thalia gave me a thumbs up. Boosting my confidence, I added, "There. You heard me. Please leave, Alp

SUNSHINE:It was wrong to feel jealous of Thalia. The woman was not doing anything wrong, but my stupid heart could not differentiate the two. Besides, what’s the harm in asking for the alpha’s order? It was not like there was something wrong with that. ‘There is something wrong especially if she is showing her cleavage,’ Helena hissed. ‘Can’t you see? She intentionally brushed her chest into our mate’s shoulder. That’s so low. Why would she seduce our mate in front of us?’‘Did anyone know that the alpha is our mate? No one, right? So whatever Thalia does to seduce the alpha, we should not say anything.’‘You want me to shut my mouth? No fucking way! I will fight and save our mate from women like her.’‘Behave, Helena. Thalia was not but good to us. She provided us with clothes to wear.’‘It’s because she has an ulterior motive. She wanted to attract customers. You are one. She said it herself. ’Thalia pulled her hair tie and allowed her hair to lose. Some of the strands fell on Kn

SUNSHINE:My heart raced. This was so embarrassing. How would I continue my lie?Please don’t say anything, I begged inside my head as Thalia looked at me with a knowing expression.Did Brody hear my statement? What if he did and made fun of me like my step-brothers did? Relax, Sunshine. You got this. If Brody did listen to you, he would react to your statement.Yeah. That might be true. Still, there was also the fact that he might have heard my previous statement. My hands suddenly went clammy. “H-Hi, Brody,” I greeted when no one was going to talk.My heart raced as fear ate my system. Please…tell me you haven’t heard anything. "Sunny.” His gaze shifted to my stepbrother. “Alpha Knoxx,” he greeted. “What’s up? What brought you here? Coffee?” Did my voice shake in the end? "Order what you want. My treat. You've been good to me the last time we met.""That man was good to you, Sunny? What did he do?""He brought chicken at the market and someone gave him fish. Then we feasted
